Maybe it was because of the double arrangement, or because of the daily pick-up, Li Qianniang never appeared again in the next few days. Although Wang Zixian seems to have lifted the danger of forced marriage, both of them tacitly never mentioned the end of the transfer again. In this way, they can still see each other every day, and they slowly return to Yankang Fang from Buzheng Fang side by side, which is enough for them to talk about various interesting things that have happened recently. Of course, they will also avoid the troops sent by Wang Ziling to keep an eye on, and deliberately choose a different route to return home every time.

Occasionally, Li Hui will meet Li Qianniang in some banquets that cannot be avoided. The crows and temples are stacked, the head jewelry is as bright as the stars, the makeup is delicate and charming, and when the eight long skirts are lightly blown by the wind, the shawl is flying like a fairy, which is still moving. Compared to when we first met, she is no longer the same. It is clear that she still had the youth and innocence of a cardamom girl, and in just a few days, she has become a Chang'an lady with a unique style.

As the only sister of Li Ju, the Duke of Xun Guo, Li Qianniang has been quite prominent in the recent banquets. She has a good appearance, and her figure is more graceful than that of girls of the same age, and her status as a clan girl has attracted the attention of many handsome young men. In addition, the daughters of those small clans also crowded over, complimenting her without a trace.

Countless dazzling riches and flashies, countless fluttering praises and honors, all of which this girl who grew up in the countryside of Qianzhou has never experienced. She seemed slightly drunk, immersed in the satisfaction of being surrounded by so many people. When she looked at the children of the family who were politely courting her, she did not forget to raise her chin towards Li Hui, as if she was demonstrating, and as if proud.

Li Hui snorted slightly, not taking her provocation to heart. He only hoped that she would enjoy this rich life and completely forget about Prince Jì. She may never know who is the source of her life now – and what kind of person his friend will be in a few decades, and what kind of surprise he will bring to those around him.

Not to mention that decades later, just three years later, the first head will shake the entire Chang'an City. When the time comes, what should he do for him? What can be done for him? If it was in the previous life, when the grandfather had already passed away, and the new emperor was busy seizing / power / from the hands of the old ministers after ascending the throne, and by the way completely uprooted the threat of his brother, it was the most critical moment for the Pu Wang family. What else can he do besides self-preservation?

Before the king of Xin'an could figure out how to act in the future, His Royal Highness King Pu had already achieved a phased "victory". Under his perseverance and "pleading" like a "milk swallow throwing into the forest", the sage finally agreed to give the king of Heipu a real shortage, and really let his grandchildren get in touch with political affairs.

His Majesty, the emperor who was over the age of six, gathered his children and grandchildren together and looked at them lovingly: "Now that our family is finally reunited, everything in the past will be temporarily stopped. The four of you brothers only need to get along in peace in the future, and I don't expect you to put aside old grudges and support each other. However, good grandchildren are different from you unfilial sons. Whatever you have done, you don't have to implicate them. ”

Hearing this, the abolished prince Li Song, the king of Yue Li Heng, the king of Pu Li Tai and the prince Li Kun all bowed to the ground: "The child is not filial......

In just four words, Li Song still spoke very coldly, Li Heng was helpless with twelve points, Li Tai felt a little ashamed, and Li Kun was particularly affectionate. Li Hui looked at them without a trace, sniffing out a hint of crisis from them, as if this illusion of peace was very likely to fall apart in the next moment.

Grandfather may not have known it in his heart—but at this moment, he is just a father and a grandfather. It is not the decisive King of Xiao Qin, not the young emperor who ascended the throne after the bloodstained Xuanwu Gate, nor the famous Heavenly Khan who was supported by all the clans, nor the emperor of the ages who attracted countless famous ministers and people to open up the prosperous era of Qingping.

"In the blink of an eye, the good grandchildren have grown so big." The sage patted his side, Li Xin, Li Wei and Li Ju were all slightly stunned and did not move, only Li Hui walked over and sat beside him almost reflexively. The saint laughed with satisfaction, took him into his arms and patted him.

The king of Xin'an was leaning on his grandfather's arms, and he was ashamed of his swift reaction. He secretly made up his mind that he must show his mature side next time, but at the same time, he also felt that being able to entertain his relatives in colorful clothes was also a kind of filial piety, so he became more and more contradictory.

Seeing this, Li Jing hesitated slightly, picked up the two little cousins next to him, and leaned over with a red face and a little stiffness. The saint laughed even more: "Good! Good! We should be closer to each other! ”

Li Song looked at the scene of his ancestors and grandchildren hugging each other coldly, he didn't know what he thought, and he seemed to be a little distracted; Li Heng became more and more helpless, watching Li Jing shake his head, as if he did not agree with his behavior; Li Tai laughed, as if he felt more and more that his young son was likable; Li Kun looked at his two ignorant concubines, and then at the nephews who were already two handsome young men, and the corners of his lips hooked slightly.

"Ah Hui and Ah Jing don't mention it, Ah Xin, Ah Wei and Ah Ju are all past the age of the crown." After the saint rubbed his grandson one by one, Fang Zhengse said, "You should also get some practical work to help me and Gorou." Maybe it's only by getting you all in that way that those bastards won't be cranky, guessing which grandson I like today and which grandson I like tomorrow. Don't think about it carefully, which grandson does the old grandfather like to love, and what does it have to do with them?! However, I also know that the three of you have your own ideas. Tell me, what kind of official position do you want? ”

Li Xin was the oldest, so he replied: "Grandfather, grandson has thought about it carefully, and I feel that I am very interested in the affairs of people's livelihood, and I want to start from the order of a county. In the future, I would like to be an official for one of my parents and share the worries of my grandfather and uncle. He didn't pay attention to Li Tai's eyes, and almost made His Royal Highness King Pu jump up from his seat - the dignified heir King Pu, what kind of county order? At least it should be a state don't drive, a long history or a Sima! At least you have to be a five-grade official!

Of course, the sage did not miss the angry appearance of his fat son, and laughed: "Look at your grandfather, I feel sorry for you!" I don't want to wronged my grandson and let you go to some remote place to be a county magistrate. Wupin county order, isn't there also one? "Wupin county order, that is, the four Beijing county orders in the two capitals - Chang'an County and Wannian County in Chang'an, Henan County and Luoyang County in Luoyang. Because of its special status, the position of the county order is comparable to that of Shangzhou outside Beijing, and it is also the most difficult county order to perform its duties within the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

The so-called most difficult to perform their duties is nothing more than the many high-ranking officials and clans in the two capitals, if they know the law and break the law, it will be difficult to deal with them according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty and give them due restraint and punishment. However, as the king of Heipu, Li Xin is the most suitable in such a position. No matter what noble family, they can't help but give this golden branch and jade leaf with the support of a saint a little face.

"Since it is the first time to be a county magistrate, it is not good to let you go to Luoyang directly, so I will stay in Chang'an. It doesn't matter whether it's Wannian County or Chang'an County, I will always make room for you. In this way, you two don't have to be separated, keep the frost lady well, and add a few more great-grandchildren to me! ”

"Grandson, thank your grandfather for your grace!" Li Xin was overjoyed and immediately bowed and thanked him.

Li Wei immediately said: "Grandfather, grandson is not as elegant as cousins, and he has always liked to play with knives and guns!" If there is a chance, the grandson wants to go to the frontier to be the captain of Guoyi, gallop on the battlefield, and open up the territory for his grandfather! He and the Li Jing brothers have loved the art of war and martial arts since childhood, and in their spare time, they went out to Beijing to hunt and play polo, with a great record and a reputation in Beijing.

The sage laughed: "It's true that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers!" It's a pity that the frontier is rarely peaceful for a few years now, and there is no war for you to try for the time being. Moreover, how can your grandfather and aunt be willing to let you be born and die? Anyway, since you want to join the army, I don't need to prepare myself to trap you. First go to Jin Wuwei to serve as the lieutenant of Guoyi, so that he can learn the method of military training, and then talk about guarding the frontier in the future. ”

"Grandson thanks grandfather for his kindness!" Li Wei was also very excited, which made Li Jing a little red, and he wanted to speak several times.

Li Ju thought for a while, but said: "Grandfather and grandson are not interested in people's livelihood and martial arts, but they just like to read. The grandchildren want to ...... I want to go to the secretary prison. "The secretary and supervisor are the places in charge of the classics of scripture and history, and the place where the imperial court collects books - it can be said to be the most idle yamen in the imperial court, and it is also the most boring yamen. But for those who love to read, the vast number of classics and documents is enough to immerse them in it all day long.

Li Hui didn't know if Li Ju really wanted to go to the secretary or prison, or if he just wanted to retreat from the center of power—in any case, he admired this decision. So, he suddenly laughed and quipped: "Is my cousin going to the secretary prison to study, or is it to get close to the future father-in-law?" "Li Ju's father-in-law, An Shouyuan, is one of the secretaries and young eunuchs.

Li Ju was stunned, and his face turned red in an instant. Seeing this, the sage laughed even more: "No matter why Ah Ju wants to go to the secretary and prison, I will give you a secretary to do it." Read a good book with An Shouyuan, or follow him to sort out those classics, maybe it will come in handy in the future! ”

"Grandson thanks grandfather." Li Ju bowed his head, raised his eyes and gave Li Hui a non-threatening look.

Li Hui pretended not to see it, but the sage saw it in his eyes, and it was even more difficult to hide his joy: "Ah Hui doesn't just care about making fun of your cousin." You and Jing are young, but it's time to think about what you're going to do in the future. Whether it's from the text, from the martial arts, or even to be idle. As long as you reach the crown, I'll let you do it! ”

Li Hui immediately replied: "Didn't you say that you should start a family first and then start a business?" My grandson had never thought about it. What's more, what can Sun Er do now that he can't do anything? Only when he was taught by his grandfather and became a handsome talent like his brothers could he stand up and share his grandfather's worries. ”

"You've got that in mind. Whether you go to school or practice martial arts, you are not allowed to slack off. If you have free time, I will also point you out. As he spoke, the sage earnestly admonished, "Your brothers are very good as they are now, and you must cherish this brotherhood." Not only can I share my worries, but I can also share my uncle's worries in the future. ”

"Grandfather, don't worry." Everyone agreed in unison.

In the end, the sage personally named Li Xin and the others, and planned to officially crown their brother on a certain day. Li Xin, the king of Pu, the word Boyue; Li Wei, the king of the heirs, has a thousand words; Xun Guogong Li Ju, the word Juqing. The king of Xin'an and the king of Tianshui were very envious, and they wanted words when they were pestering, but the sage smiled silently and did not fulfill the wishes of the two grandchildren.
