Song Shengyue left, Liu Junchen returned to the house to return to Di Lian, but Di Lian didn't care about Song Shengyue's matter, but asked about Jiang Ge's banquet today.

"Wynnbo is the second room of the Su family who moved back to the capital at the beginning of summer, right?"

Liu Junchen bowed his head, "Exactly." ”

Tilian nodded lightly, Huaienbo Su Han is the second room of the Su family, after Emperor An ascended the throne, he transferred the scattered Su family back to the capital, he needs to consolidate the throne, nothing is more reliable than his own foreign family, although when Emperor An is full-fledged, the Su family will also become one of the thorns in his side.

The Su family of Chengguo Gong and the Xie family of Rongguo Mansion are the two giants of the nobles of the Xia Lan Dynasty, the Xie family is a military general court built up for generations, and ninety percent of the men in the clan have died on the battlefield, so the heirs are getting weaker and weaker, and only two grandchildren are left in this generation, Xie Hengyuan and Xie Hengxu.

And this Su family is just the opposite of the Xie family, the same is the founding of the country, the Su family is a hundred years of scholarly court, the strict rules in the clan can be called the most in Xialan, the discipline and cultivation of children and grandchildren are particularly valued, in order to be able to have more talents, and even set the rule that men do not accept concubines at forty, so as to avoid the complexity of the heirs, the upbringing and teaching of the descendants are quite important, which is also in the mouth of ordinary people' In the essence is not much', Rao is like this, the Su family's sons are still very luxuriant, and there are seven sons and daughters of Xie Hengxu's generation alone. And now this Huaienbo Su Han is the first child of the Su family to be awarded for military merits.

This is the biggest difference between the nobles who live in the temple and the nobles of the expedition battlefield, who are pampered in the court and the court, as long as there is no big mistake, the children and grandchildren of the clan can be happy until they grow old, but most of the people of the Xie family died young and died on the battlefield.

To Tilian's maternal grandfather Xie Xunke, he also died on the battlefield many times, and the decades before the last war between the two dynasties were calmed down, and it was because of Xie Xunke's five years of hard fighting that he signed a letter of friendship with the Starfall Dynasty, and later the two sons grew up to be able to share it for him, so they could stay in Beijing and enjoy their old age in peace.

Really counted, the Su family and the Xie family are now married, which is why Emperor An will not move the Xie family lightly at this time.

It is also reasonable for Jiang Ge to interact with the people of the Su family, but last time Emperor An ordered to move back to the capital, it was not only Huai Enbo who moved back to the capital, but most of the foreign families of several newly canonized princes moved back, as well as the foreign family of Xiahou Xi, who was stabbed to death. Emperor An was a man of great ambition and the city, and he watched all these grandfathers under his nose.

Thinking of this, Di Lianyue's eyes moved slightly, and she looked at Liu Junchen, "The Marquis of Xiyue in Shudi, but you have also moved back to Beijing?" ”

"Yes, because of the matter of the three princes, the Xiyue Marquis Mansion is not very easy in the capital." , Liu Junchen smiled lightly.

Di Lian nodded, of course it won't be easy, when the battle for the throne Xiahou Xi didn't have time to use the Xiyue Hou Mansion, he had already fallen, Rao is so, they are Xiahou Xi's foreign family in the end, it is impossible for Emperor An not to be disgusted, and he transferred them to the capital but did not deal with them, but there is no suitable excuse, the people that Emperor An wants to deal with, who is not stepping on and hiding.

Getting up to stay, Tillian lowered her eyes and straightened her skirt, and said lightly, "I may not have been to 'Diners' for a long time, so let's go over and have a look today." ”

Hearing that she was going out, Liu Junchen's heart was relieved, and the green fence outside hurriedly came in, while stepping forward to wrap her in a brocade red cloak of chiseled orchids, the edge of the cloak was embedded with snow-colored rabbit fur, lined with Tillian's snowy skin and black hair, more like the person in the painting.

While tying the cloak, he smiled earnestly, "Miss wants to go out, it's better to relax, come back early." ”

"I see." , Di Lian smiled lightly and left with Liu Junchen.

The carriage stopped at the back door of the 'Diners' as usual, Uncle Wen had already seen it in front, and was already waiting outside the door at this time, and when he saw Di Lian coming out, he hurriedly went to help him personally, and sighed while looking at Di Lian carefully, "The girl's injury is healed, but she has lost weight again." ”

Hearing his concern, Tillian's eyes curled with a smile, "Uncle Wen is worried." ”

The three of them walked in together, crossed the bluestone path and went down the corridor, Uncle Wen shook his head and smiled, "The old slave has not seen the girl for a long time, and he is really not steady. ”

Di Lian smiled without saying a word, said softly, and took the two of them around the corridor, and when they were about to turn into the restaurant, they looked at the frozen small lake in the inner courtyard, and couldn't help but say, "Since this pond is frozen, don't plant lotus in the spring, it's good to only raise a pond of koi." ”

Uncle Wen naturally replied, "What the girl said is that the old slave wrote it down." ”

Tillian then took the two of them into the building, and went up the small staircase at the back, this staircase repaired in the corner was specially arranged by Xie Hengxu for her, and she could only enter from the inner courtyard of the 'Diners', so that if she came, she could go directly to the third floor without attracting attention.

Because of the narrowness of the stairs, one person is too spacious, and the two of them are going to rub shoulders, so the three of them go up in a row, Liu Junchen walked at the end, and said in a clear voice, "I heard that the Yun family's 'Peng Yanlou' has a famous dish, and the fish used is a variety from Fanbang, the meat is tender and thornless, I don't know if it can be planted, it is said that the fish is alive with flat-headed golden scales, which is three times larger than the average koi, and it is a strange thing to keep in the pool." ”

"Mr. Liu is talking about the 'dragon carp'." , Tillian smiled, "It's not bad, I'll have to ask in person when Shili comes back, after all, it's the signature dish of 'Peng Yanlou', and it's all pointing to it to attract customers." ”

The three of them had already reached the third floor, Uncle Wen smiled when he heard this, and while pushing open the door to lead Di Lian in, he said, "The girl spoke, is there anything Yunhou is not allowed?" Let's not cook this fish, just circle it in the pond and watch it. ”

Tilian walked to the edge of the couch and sat down, thinking for a while, "I have an idea that on a warm day, it is better to separate the corridor of the inner courtyard of the restaurant into an open-air box with a brocade bamboo curtain, which can not only enjoy the scenery of the inner courtyard, but also not delay the banquet and dinner, which is an elegant thing." ”

Uncle Wen and Liu Junchen looked at each other and laughed, "As soon as the girl comes, our restaurant will really make more money." The old slave thinks it is feasible, then this inner courtyard is going to be greatly started, and it will be better if a stage is repaired and a red-card song and dance girl is invited to help the fun. ”

Di Lian smiled lightly, "This matter is entrusted to Mr. Liu, and Mr. Liu does the best thing to save money and be efficient." ”

Liu Junchen smiled bitterly and bowed his hand, "Thank you girl for your love." ”

Uncle Wen laughed for a while, suddenly remembered something, and said to Di Lian, "The third prince and the people are having a banquet downstairs, do you know?" ”

Yueyan looked at him lightly, and Tilian bowed her head, "I know about this, does Uncle Wen know who there is?" ”

"This." After a little contemplation, Uncle Wen stepped forward and said in a low voice, "In addition to the third prince, the eldest prince is also present, and the prince of Huai'en is today's birthday star, as well as the fifth son and the sixth son of the Su family, the prince of Jiyang, and the prince of Xuanbohou." ”

The Jiyang Gongwang family rose during the period of the great-ancestor Emperor Xiang, and now it is the fourth generation, and it is this Jiyang prince Wang Ji who is married to the third miss of the Su family, and the father of the third miss of the Su family is Huai Enbo, so it is common sense that the prince of Jiyang is in common sense.

However, Di Lian was a little puzzled, "Which noble family is Xuan Bohou?" ”

Because of the transfer of Emperor An, many nobles from all over the country have moved back to the capital, and the capital, which is already related to the intricate aristocratic courts, is really to the point where the streets are full of nobles, and Di Lian has not deliberately inquired about recuperating from her injuries these days, and she went out twice because of Emperor An's summons, at least in the foreign family of several princes she knows, there is no such Xuan Bohou.

Seeing her ask, Uncle Wen naturally wanted to explain in detail, "This Xuan Bohou was rewarded at will by the first emperor when he was alive, and he is not a serious family. The girl remembers that in March of the 19th year of Kangshun, there was a flooding disaster in southern Hunan due to continuous heavy rains, and the tea plantations of the entire eighteen counties were heavily damaged. ”

Di Lian nodded, in the first month of this year, she also reprimanded the steward of Jiangzhou's 'Cooking Building' for this matter.

Seeing that she knew, Uncle Wen continued, "Because the disaster relief money allocated by the capital has been slow for a few days, the southernmost Qizhou of the eighteen counties has suffered a civil disaster, and this Xuanbohou Li clan was originally a bandit who was stationed on the mountain behind it, but the people nearby are very confident in them, but they are a group of good bandits, and it is said that they will also transport troops, and they have been in a confrontation with the five thousand troops sent to suppress the southern Hunan army for three months and have not been taken. ”

When he said this, Di Lian had the impression, because it was Emperor Rui who assigned Feng Xi's brother Feng Xi to persuade him to surrender, Xu Wei also felt that the Li family had been a self-taught person for a long time, and wanted to take it for his own use, and then the Li family was really recruited, and it was then that Emperor Rui casually promised a title.

"This title is not within the three dukes and six dukes, it will be finished if it is inherited for three generations." , Liu Junchen said with a smile, not only him, but any nobleman in the capital mentioned it, and it was only a joke.

These three dukes and six lords are the founding emperor of the Xia Lan Dynasty personally sealed the high gate, more than a hundred years later, there is only one Jinxiang Hou Chu family, Xiyue Hou Xiyue family, the remaining four titles two have been extinct, and one is the great ancestor of the emperor when he saved the rise of the Wang family, which replaced the Sun family that had fallen for a long time, and became one of the new six lords and the Duke of Yang; The other is the Washington Mansion that has successfully broken away from the court in southern Hunan and turned into a wealthy businessman, which is called the 'Huahou Mansion'; the three dukes are only left with the Xie family of Rongguo Gong, and the Su family of Chengguo Gong.

But it is really strange that such an unpopular marquis prince has integrated into the circle of the most noble sons in the capital.

Di Lian muttered in thought, "Either this Li clan really has some strategies, or Emperor An wants to reuse them." ”

Liu Junchen and Uncle Wen glanced at each other, looking confused, "There are so many famous princes in the capital, why does Your Majesty want to reuse such an unpopular Li family." ”

The moon eyes drooped like mercury, and Tilian said softly and indifferently, "Because this has no foundation but can lead troops, it is best to control it." ”

Leading the troops, this Li family's survival zĂ i is to replace the Xie family in the future, and Di Lian can't think of other reasons.

Liu Junchen and Uncle Wen were shocked, hung their heads and didn't say anything more, even if they heard this kind of thing, they shouldn't have heard it, and they shouldn't have known it.
