Chapter 25 Cheng Biting Jin, You Old Horseman! (Pink new book for recommendation, collection, investment)
"Mother, that direction is the Lu Guogong Mansion, right?" A girl with picturesque eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but a hairpin dressed in cloth raised her head and listened curiously to the faint noise in the distance.
At the tip of her eyebrows, there is a cute and playful mole, which makes her eyebrows a little more flexible.
A middle-aged woman with a slightly gray head looked up from the dim oil lamp.
"Well, yes, it is precisely because of the blessing of the Duke of Lu Guo that we can rent this house near here at such a low price in this prosperous place in Chang'an City."
"Mother, the light is too dark, let's make up for it tomorrow." The girl picked up the scissors, stirred off a wick, and persuaded the middle-aged woman who had bowed her head and started sewing.
"It's okay, it's repaired quickly, and I'll clean it up tomorrow, and then I can send it to the Zhang family."
This silk shirt, but he received fifty yuan from his family, so it can't be delayed. ”
"Mother, when I learn well, let me make up for it." The girl sat down and gently pinched her mother's back and legs.
"Okay, our Mei Niang is the most considerate." The woman chuckled lovingly.
Looking back at the three girls who were lying on the couch next to them, who were already sleeping sweetly, and the second girl who was well-behaved and considerate, I couldn't help but feel sour.
In the past, the silk and satin have been replaced by these coarse cloths, and in the past, they were picky eaters, so they didn't eat this, and they didn't eat like that, but now the wheat rice with only pickles is still delicious, alas......
After a low sigh, the woman continued to sew up the hole in the placket of her hand.
Fortunately, there are many high-ranking lords living around, who are willing to pay a high price, otherwise how can a weak woman earn money to make ends meet and rely on her two daughters.

"What's the matter with Ke'er, it's been this hour, and you haven't entered the palace yet?" Li Shimin put down the book in his hand and said with some displeasure.
The eldest grandson beside him glanced at the sky outside the house and smiled gently.
"Ke'er has always been well-behaved and polite, but she has not yet entered the palace at this time, so she must have something to delay temporarily."
"Hmph, well-behaved and polite, that's just the surface, who is this kid, can I not know as a father?
is very naughty in private, but he pretends to be quite honest on the surface. ”
Hearing this, the eldest grandson Wujian couldn't help but be gentle, and subconsciously glanced at his childhood sweetheart, who has been with him until now.
Seeing that Li Shimin himself was a little embarrassed, he touched his nose and muttered quietly. "It's okay for a lady to give her husband some face."
The concubine didn't say anything. It's our family's Qinghe's family affairs, I don't know how Your Majesty thinks about it? ”
Li Shimin's expression suddenly became serious, frowned, and pondered carefully for a while.
"As a husband, I still think it is more appropriate to give her to Cheng Chuliang, the second child of the Cheng family, I don't know what the lady thinks?"
"Cheng Yanjin has made outstanding contributions to the court, and his eldest son will inherit the title of Duke in the future.
And among the rest of the sons, except for the second and third children, they are all still young and can't see their temperament, so this reward will be given to Cheng Chuliang. ”
"Actually, the concubine originally thought that the third child of his family looked more handsome, like his mother Cui, but it's a pity that ......"
Lu Guogong's rough man, Cheng Laosan is also good-looking, like his mother, the first beauty of the Cui family in Qinghe. It's just a pity that the madness ......
Li Shimin also nodded approvingly. "Yes, it's a pity that Cheng Chubi is that kid, and now even Sun and Yuan, the two Taoist leaders, dare not be sure about his condition.
As parents, we certainly don't want our daughters to suffer. ”
"The husband is thoughtful, and the concubine has also heard that the second child of the Cheng family is honest and sincere, and he is a good match for our family's Qinghe."
While the husband and wife were talking, they saw a eunuch hurrying outside the house.
"Your Majesty, the guard of His Royal Highness the King of Shu, I have an urgent matter to ask to see Your Majesty."
"Ke'er's guard, what's going on, pass it on."
Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wujian glanced at each other, and couldn't help but beat a little drum in their hearts, could it be that Li Ke had just been lifted from the grounding, and something could not happen?
"See Your Majesty, see Niangniang." After the guards of the Shu Palace's mansion entered the house, they hurriedly saluted respectfully.
"Pingshen, what about Ke'er, why didn't he come?" Li Shimin asked with a calm face.
"Your Highness, he is already drunk and unconscious, and the ministers have sent His Highness back to the house."
"Huh?!" Li Shimin's sword eyebrows raised, he got up and took his hands, and his whole person's momentum changed.
"Bastard! I just lifted his grounding, and he dared to do such nonsense, which was too much. ”
"Your Majesty, it's no wonder Your Highness, Your Highness went today, went to the Mansion of the Duke of Lu, and the result was ......"
"......" Li Shimin's face froze, and he said for a long time. What did he do in the Mansion of the Duke of Lu? ”
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness went to the Mansion of the Duke of Lu to visit Cheng Sangongzi, after all, Cheng Sangongzi ......"
"Husband, sit down and talk." The eldest grandson Wujian tugged at Li Shimin's sleeve with a somewhat strange expression, and bowed slightly towards the trembling Shu Wangfu guard.
"What the hell is going on, you tell me as it is."
The guards of the Shu Wangfu stood in the house, trembling and telling that after Li Ke was released from the ground, he went to the Fang Mansion first, called Fang Jun, and the two brothers went to the Lu Guogong Mansion together to visit Cheng Chubi.
The brothers didn't get together for a long time, so they naturally chatted very happily, but when it was close to dusk, something happened when the two said goodbye and left the Lu Guogong Mansion.
“…… His Royal Highness didn't even have time to greet us, so he fled with the second son of Fang, cough cough, ran away, but unfortunately he was still found by Lu Guogong and captured back to the house......"
"Capture ......" eldest grandson Wujian, the virtuous queen who must be calm every time there is a major event, his eyelids are also beating wildly at this moment, and he almost can't maintain the image of the virtuous queen.
Li Shimin's face turned even darker, and he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth. "Cheng Bites Gold...... You old puff ......."
When Li Shimin heard that Ke'er was forced to participate in the Cheng family banquet, the three bear children of the Cheng family brought out a big killer: wolf heart and dog lung soup.
The eldest grandson of the virtuous queen Wujian couldn't hold back anymore, and quickly turned his head and coughed vigorously.
Li Shimin's face was even more hideous, he wanted to laugh wildly, and he also wanted to scold.
In the end, Li Shimin, the wise monarch of the Tang Dynasty and the ruler of Zhenguan's rule, vigorously picked a few legs of the case with one hand, and pinched his thigh with the other, struggling to maintain the prestige of the Son of Heaven.
After the guards of the Shu Palace's mansion respectfully retreated, the husband and wife were speechless, and they didn't know how to express their complicated feelings at the moment.
"If this thing is preached...... The concubine didn't know what to say. ”
The eldest grandson, who finally stabilized her emotions, hurriedly covered her mouth and nose with a silk handkerchief, so as not to let her husband see the difference.
"Alas...... What is this called, this wolf heart was sent by Ke'er herself.
Now, the dignified King of Shu and the second son of Fang Xiang had a wolf-hearted dog-lung banquet in the mansion of Lu Guogong. ”
The eldest grandson Wujian gritted his teeth and said angrily and funny.
"The concubine feels that she is afraid that this is because Lu Guogong wants to involve more people, so that the people up and down Chang'an City will always use his old Cheng family as a laughing stock."
Hearing the lady's meaningful words, Li Shimin couldn't help but laugh a few times, and soon frowned again.
"It's okay now, Ke'er's little bastard has also become a laughing stock, and the second child of the Fang family, I don't know how Fang Qing will feel when she hears the news today......"
Li Shimin rubbed his eyebrows. The Tang Dynasty is so strong, and there are countless ministers and good generals, but there are always some unstable elements in it that cause people to have a headache.
wanted to laugh at Lao Cheng who deserved it, but he was angry that Cheng Biting Jin, the old horseman, actually forced his son to pour several bowls of wolf heart and dog lung soup.
Alas...... What is this called, although Li Ke is a victim, Li Shimin always has the urge to rush to the Mansion of King Shu and kick this little bastard's feet now.
