Chapter 416 Staying in Beijing has been decided
Chapter 416
Li Ke was very happy and excited, he didn't expect that his father really agreed to let him serve as Shaoyin, and he also said that he would work hard in the past few years, that is, the meaning of letting him stay in Beijing for the past few years, that is, the meaning of letting him compete for the crown prince. After leaving the Manna Palace, Li Ke looked up at the sky and felt that the sky was exceptionally blue and cloudless!
And Li Shimin was sitting on the side of the Ganlu Palace, drinking tea slowly, thinking about things, and he was not so happy, and even said that it was a little heavy.
In the evening, as soon as Wei Hao returned to the house, he heard a report from his subordinates that Li Ke had come to visit.
"He's coming?" Wei Hao was still a little surprised, but he had just come back and wanted to visit, Wei Hao had no way to refuse, so he went to the gate by himself, no matter what, he was a prince or not. Before I got to the front door, I saw Li Ke coming in.
"I've seen His Royal Highness the King of Shu!" Wei Hao said with his hand over.
"Shen Yong is polite, I came here today, mainly to see the old man, you see, I brought some pastries, and some fruits! The old man has your care, we are really relieved! Li Ke gestured to the two subordinates behind him, all of whom were carrying things in their hands!
"If you have a heart, please, please here!" Wei Hao said to Li Ke with a smile, and the two of them walked towards the old man.
At this moment, on the side of the old man's study, there was also the sound of mahjong, Wei Hao and Li Ke went in, it was Wei Furong, and the two stewards of the house were playing mahjong with the old man.
"Old man, look who's coming to see you!" Wei Hao shouted at Li Yuan with a smile.
"Well, oh, Ke'er is here, back to Beijing?" Li Yuan looked up and found that it was Li Ke, so he immediately asked with a smile.
"Dad, you better change places to fight, find someone to fight, the King of Shu has just returned to Beijing, come to visit the old man!" Wei Hao said to Wei Furong with a smile.
"Cheng, then change places, old man, you're done here, and you still want to fight, so send someone to greet a few of us, let's withdraw first!" Wei Furong also stood up with a smile, anyway, they often play with the old man for a while, and they will play every day, but the time of the fight will not be very long, at most two hours.
"Good!" Li Yuan said with a smile,
Wei Hao went over to support Li Yuan and sat down on the side of the tea table.
Soon, Wei Furong and the others went out, and Wei Hao also wanted to go out, but was stopped by Li Yuan.
"Sit down, you kid too, you've been busy lately, and you haven't had time to drink tea with your old man." Li Yuan said to Wei Hao.
"Isn't it? Eh, my father is too pitiful, just find me something if it's okay, what can I do, or, one day, you go back to the palace, I'll find you a stick, you go and clean him up, just say, I'm so busy, I don't have time to play with you? Wei Hao looked at Li Yuan with a smile and asked.
"Yes, when I went back to the palace one day, I wanted to talk to this kid well, it's not like that, there are so many ministers in the court, and you are still missing?" Li Yuan nodded in agreement.
"That's it, staring at me every day, I'm afraid I'll be idle!" Wei Hao also agreed and said.
"Well, Ke'er, how long will you need to stay when you return to Beijing this time?" Li Yuan looked at Li Ke and asked.
"Old man, you may have to stay for a while, and this time I came back to prepare for a big wedding, so I need to have other plans after the New Year!" Li Ke sat there honestly and said.
"Well, yes, but you should stay in the capital, or else, um!" After Li Yuan said this, he stopped saying it.
"My grandson also wants to, but my father doesn't allow it, so I have no choice, the prince is a vassal, there is no way to do it!" Li Ke pretended to be very helpless and said, he didn't dare to say anything about staying in Beijing, after all, it has not been completely decided yet, if the holy decree is issued, it will be about the same, but not yet, so he can only wait first.
"Well, it is estimated that your father will let you stay in Beijing this time, Shen Yong, do you know what it means?" Li Yuan looked at Wei Hao as he spoke,
Wei Hao pretended to be confused and looked at Li Yuan and shook his head.
"Hmph, your father is originally a suspicious person, don't look at how much he pretends to be a day, a fart, a lot of things, he has already calculated it, believe it or not this time, he wants to stay in Beijing!" Li Yuan looked at Wei Hao and pointed at Li Ke and asked.
"I don't know, why?" Wei Hao pretended to be confused and looked at Li Yuan.
"Your father is worried that Gao Ming has become bigger, now that Gao Ming is older, he has begun to deal with government affairs, and now he is more and more proficient in handling it, and he has not made mistakes, plus now Gao Ming has money in his hands, he can do a lot of things, and he is also a little prestigious among the people, you say, there is nothing like this now, but if you continue to let Gao Ming do this, can your father not worry? Don't worry that Gao Ming will completely set him up when the time comes, hum, the surface is very atmospheric, in fact, everyone can guard against it! Li Yuan sat there and said with a cold snort.
"I don't know about this, anyway, what my father thinks, I don't bother to guess!" Wei Hao said with a smile.
"You stay in Beijing this time, do a good job, and when you need Azu's help, send someone over to inform you!" Li Yuan said to Li Ke.
"Yes, thank you Azu, it's just that you may not be able to stay!" Li Ke's heart blossomed, knowing that your old man is still very supportive of him, so now he just needs to do things well.
"I said I can, I don't believe you wait, otherwise, I won't let you go back to Beijing now, let you go back to Beijing, just let you prepare well in the capital!" Li Yuan said to Li Ke.
"That's good, I'm afraid I can't stay, it's best to be able to stay!" Li Ke still said in a low-key manner, and then Li Ke and Li Yuan talked about other things, Wei Hao just sat there and listened,
It was almost before curfew before Li Ke went back, and Wei Hao also sent him off in person.
"Shen Yong, you say, is it okay for me to stay in Beijing?" Li Ke put his hands behind his back and asked Wei Hao.
"How do I know this?" Wei Hao was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile.
"Shen Yong, you are also my brother-in-law, what about me, I don't have a sister of a mother's sibling, Lizhi is my eldest sister!" Li Ke said to Wei Hao, Wei Hao pretended not to understand, but thought in his heart, that's what he said, but they also have a sister above them, and she is now married.
"Of course, you brothers and sisters have a good relationship, of course I know!" Wei Hao smiled and nodded and said.
"Well, let's send it here, I hope we can cooperate happily in the future!" Li Ke said to Wei Hao.
"Ah, oh, happy cooperation!" Wei Hao didn't know what the cooperation was at all, how did he come to a happy cooperation, but Wei Hao didn't say so much,
After sending Li Ke away, Wei Hao sighed, it is estimated that Li Ke is staying in Beijing, but what he can't figure out is why Li Yuan can think of this matter when he sits in his own house, it seems that Li Shimin is really guarding against Li Chengqian, if this is the case, Li Chengqian is very wronged and has not done anything, so Li Shimin found him an opponent.
The next morning, Wei Hao was practicing martial arts, and not long after practicing martial arts, Wei Hao found Gonggong Hong standing next to him.
"Master? You're back? Wei Hao saw Father-in-law Hong and was very surprised, Father-in-law Hong had been to Bozhou before, and it had been more than a month, and now he actually came back.
"Well, I just came back last night, I went back to the palace first, and then I dealt with some things, and I came to your side early this morning!" Gonggong Hong looked at Wei Haocai with a smile and said.
"Well, how's that, did you find it?" Wei Hao asked suspiciously, and then accompanied Gonggong Hong to his study.
"I found it, and I brought it over, I picked out the eldest nephew, brought it over, and now he is in the hotel, and you will pick him up when the time comes!" Gonggong Hong said to Wei Hao.
"Okay, don't worry, master!" Wei Hao nodded and said.
"You arrange a place for him to live, in the past two days, presumably Your Majesty will have a holy decree to come down and make him a marquis, and in the future, he will have no worries about food and clothing!" Gonggong Hong said with emotion.
"Just stay here with me, it's fine!" Wei Hao immediately smiled and said to Gonggong Hong, who nodded.
After arriving at the study, Wei Hao asked someone to bring breakfast and served it himself.
"My nephew, two years older than you, got married, this time, his wife is pregnant, didn't come together, when the time comes to give birth to the child, come over, also want to wait here to settle down, pick it up together, people, have read books, but very honest,
What about you, just take it with you, it's also your nephew, you teach him to do things, let him understand some things in officialdom, I estimate, Your Majesty will definitely give him an official, yesterday His Majesty said, let him go to Chang'an Mansion to do things, Chang'an Mansion has not yet been established, you serve as Shaoyin? Gonggong Hong looked at Wei Hao and asked.
"Yes, I will serve as Shaoyin, and it will be better if he wants to do things in Chang'an Mansion at that time!" Wei Hao said to Gonggong Hong with a smile.
"Well, that's good, just follow you, the old man looks at this child, it is estimated that he will not have much interest, but he is my nephew, and he is still the elder, of course I need to bring him here, so it is better to give my brother an errand, so, so be it!" Gonggong Hong said with a sigh.
"What's wrong? Old man, what else can't be done on this trip? Wei Hao looked at Gonggong Hong and asked.
"It's not a thing, it's just that my brother hasn't seen him for so long, and the surprise that just started, to the back, it feels a little strange, completely, eh, you know, my brother and I, haven't seen each other for at least fifty years, fifty years! I don't know how to say a lot of things, but the only thing that ties together is the blood! Father-in-law Hong said to Wei Hao, Wei Hao nodded, and he could understand, there would definitely be a strange feeling!
"Okay, his name is Hong Jushun, I will explain to him, you will pick him up today!" Gonggong Hong said to Wei Hao.
"Hong Jushun, okay, I remembered, what hotel?" Wei Hao continued to ask.
"It's the Caishun Hotel in your eastern suburbs!" Gonggong Hong continued.
"Understood, master, I will pick him up in person!" Wei Hao nodded and said, and then the two of them chatted while eating, mainly Wei Hao was asking, asking about Father-in-law Hong's trip to Bozhou, Father-in-law Hong was not very interested, Wei Hao knew that there must be something, otherwise, he wouldn't be like this, but Father-in-law Hong didn't say it, and it was not good for him to continue to ask.
After the meal, Hong Gonggong left, Wei Hao went to wash up, then rode out, and soon arrived at the Caishun Hotel in the eastern suburbs, and when he got there, he asked the person who registered at the front desk, and found Hong Jushun's room, Wei Hao stood there and knocked on the door, and after a while, a young man opened the door and looked at Wei Hao in confusion.
"Are you Hong Jushun?" Wei Hao stood there and asked with a smile.
"Yes, I am, you are?" Hong Jushun stared at Wei Hao and asked, Wei Hao looked him up and down, a very ordinary teenager, a little dark, looking like he was doing farm work, but he was also a little bookish.
"My name is Wei Hao, and I am your uncle's apprentice!" Wei Hao looked at Hong Jushun and asked.
"Oh, it's you, Uncle Shi!" Hong Jushun looked at Wei Hao happily and said.
Then he gave up his position and said to Wei Hao.
"Well, you just arrived last night?" Wei Hao asked Hong Jushun with a smile.
"Yes, come with my uncle, when I arrived in Chang'an, the curfew was there, and the city gate was closed, so I came here to live, but my uncle didn't know where to come, so he said that you would come to pick me up!" Hong Jushun stood there, looked at Wei Hao honestly and said, he knew Wei Hao's identity, and yesterday Hong Gonggong told him that this person is the grandfather of the country, and his identity is prominent!
"Well, pack up, come on, help carry things!" Wei Hao smiled and nodded, and soon, Hong Jushun cleaned up, and Wei Hao took him out of the hotel, rushed to the city, and returned to his house.
Before coming, Wei Hao told his parents that Gonggong Hong's nephew was going to come over to live for a while, and they had already instructed their subordinates to clean up the yard.
After taking Hong Jushun to the courtyard, Wei Hao said to Hong Jushun: "You will live here during this time, Your Majesty will give you a knighthood, and when the time comes, you will give you a mansion, you move over again, come here, and get 100 yuan to come over!" ”
Wei Hao said to the subordinates behind him, and someone went to collect the money immediately, and after the money was received, Wei Hao explained to Hong Jushun and asked him to go shopping in Chang'an City, and the subordinates in the house would take him to go outside.
After settling down, Wei Hao went back to the county office, after all, he was still a county order, and many things in the county needed to be handled by himself.
And at this moment, in the court, just finished the discussion, the establishment of Chang'an Mansion, Li Chengqian served as the Yin of the Mansion, Wei Hao and Li Ke were appointed as the left and right Shaoyin, at the beginning, in the court, many people objected, but the opposition was not so fierce, mainly because the eldest grandson Wuji was not in Chang'an, if it was in Chang'an, it might be a different scene,
And Li Chengqian has been very calm on the surface after the appointment was confirmed, but he was very unhappy in his heart, he didn't expect that his father would appoint him as Shaoyin, and he would work with Wei Hao in the future, his own Mansion Yin, it is impossible to go to Chang'an Mansion every day, and even said that it is very good to be able to go once or twice a month, but Li Ke and Wei Hao will meet every day.
After Li Chengqian finished dealing with things in the palace, he returned to the East Palace, and when he arrived at the East Palace, Chu Suiliang and Du Zhenglun all stood in the hall waiting for Li Chengqian.
"You know all about it, right?" Li Chengqian looked at them and asked with a forced smile.
"Your Highness, this matter is so sudden, we are not prepared at all!" Du Zhenglun looked at Li Chengqian and said.
"Lone knows, Lone doesn't have a little news, the third brother just came back, he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility, and his father values him very much, but why didn't Lone see it before?" Li Chengqian said with a smile.
"Your Highness, from now on, Your Highness needs to be careful, Your Majesty..."
"Straight to the point!" Li Chengqian looked at Chu Suiliang and said.
"Your Majesty is ready to polish you, and this kind of polishing really doesn't know who is the most suitable in the end!" Chu Suiliang looked at Li Chengqian worriedly and said.
"Lone knows, looking at him polishing Lone, maybe, Lone may also be a polishing stone! Ha! Li Chengqian said with a wry smile.
"Your Highness, today's matter, so many ministers are opposed, Your Majesty is bent on going your own way, no one has a choice, including Fang Servant Shot, Li Servant Shot, and several Shangshu are opposed, but Your Majesty just insists on doing this, but unfortunately, Wei Hao is not here today, if Wei Hao is here, maybe there will be a turnaround! Wei Hao didn't go to court, this time he made His Highness passive! Du Zhenglun stood there and said regretfully.
"Shen Yong may not know, it's just that his father must have warned him!" Li Chengqian stood there, thinking that after the last meal, Wei Hao was called to the Ganlu Hall by Li Shimin alone, which was probably related to this matter.
"This, Wei Hao knows?" Du Zhenglun looked at Li Chengqian in shock.
"Maybe, he may know, but he is not sure, you say, today, if my uncle is here, will this be the result?" Li Chengqian sat down as he spoke, and spoke.
"It's also the result, it's just that it may not be so fast, and it won't be so sudden, Your Majesty will definitely greet the Duke of Qi Guogong! And Qi Guogong may not agree! However, if you do not agree, it will not prevent Your Majesty from carrying it out. Chu Suiliang immediately arched his hand and said.
"Father is so calculating, while my uncle is out, I quickly summoned the third child to come back and handle this matter, and when my uncle comes back, there is no way, so calculated!" Li Chengqian sat there and said with a wry smile.
"Your Highness, now that the matter has been decided, the key still depends on Wei Hao's attitude, in fact, the affairs of Chang'an Mansion are still done by Wei Hao, the key is, how should Wei Hao do it?" Du Zhenglun said to Li Chengqian's suggestion at this moment.
"What do you mean?" Li Chengqian looked at Du Zhenglun incomprehensibly.
"Your Highness, the good management of Chang'an Mansion is your credit, and it is also the credit of Wei Hao and the King of Shu if you do only the credit of Your Highness, and there is nothing to do with King Wu, it would be good!" Du Zhenglun looked at Li Chengqian and said.
"You mean, let Shen Yong do everything? This is inappropriate, one is cautious and does not agree, and the other one, the king of Shu will also be happy to do this, what he wants is in the capital, as for the credit in Chang'an Mansion, no fault is credit! Chu Suiliang immediately looked at Du Zhenglun and said,
After hearing this, Li Chengqian nodded,
