He wanted to arrange for Li De to be the right leader of the army, and it would definitely be difficult for him to be a senior general, and it was still possible to be a captain.

The dinner party in the Li Mansion was relatively simple, there was no singing and dancing, and the food was worse than that in the Tang Mansion.

Li Yang looked very happy, and whispered to Li De: "I still have meat to eat with my eldest brother, but my mother is usually reluctant." ”

"Don't you usually eat meat?" Li De asked in a low voice.

"Eat, occasionally, my mother is diligent and thrifty, and she is strict in keeping the house, and she doesn't often eat meat and has very little money every month." Li Ying replied in a low voice.

After some understanding, I learned that although Li An was a general, he did not have much industry, and there were dozens of acres of land on the fertile land in Zhuangzi, which cost 100 taels of silver a year, and his family did not secretly run a shop, so his life could only be regarded as passable.

During the New Year's holidays, it costs a lot of money to visit relatives and friends, if it weren't for Zheng Shuxuan to run the family, I'm afraid Li Anzhen wouldn't be able to play.

Li De knew what he was going to do when he got home.

The meal was very happy, Li Yang had already ventilated his mother and roughly explained the situation of the people brought by Li De, so the dishes of the meal were very simple, and all the food was boiled mutton.

As long as Xiong Kuohai and others have meat to eat and drink wine, they don't understand anything about singing, dancing, singing, singing, chanting and poetry, and vassalage elegance, and if they don't have it, they don't have it.

Li De was arranged to a quiet independent courtyard, not big but exquisite, the main room is prepared for Li De and his wife, the west wing is Xiao Mei and Chen Xuanhua, and there is a side door next to the side to the street directly.

The Li Mansion is not big, but it is also relatively speaking, but there are some less gardens and fish ponds, and the others are not bad, how to say that it is also the General's Mansion.

They were arranged in the guest rooms on the west side, and their lives and residences had no impact on the main house.

On the first night he came back, Li De tossed and turned and couldn't sleep at all.

I heard the sound of a window opening at night in my room, and when I heard it, I knew that someone was going out of the next room.

Li De just couldn't sleep, so he wanted to see what Zhang Chuchen was going to do, so he followed out lightly, I don't know if it was in the wrong direction, Zhang Chuchen didn't see it, and saw Xiao Mei standing in the moonlight in the backyard.

"Cough, the long night is long......" Li De didn't touch it quietly, and immediately walked over steadily.

"Li Gongzi." Xiao Mei said lightly.

Li De heard that Xiao Mei's voice was wrong, and felt a low mood.

"Do you have something on your mind?" Li De asked knowingly.

thought that Xiao Mei would avoid this question, but she didn't hear her say: "You may be right." ”

"What did I say?" Li De wondered.

"I heard that Chen Shubao has now become an idle prince and lives a worry-free life." Xiao Mei replied.

"How do you know?" Li De asked curiously.

Xiao Mei didn't continue to say the reason, and listened to her continue: "I heard that it may not be true, I want to confirm it in person, can you help me?" ”

"I, how can I help you." Li De said casually.

I regretted the words a little, and my heart said how it was so easy to trust others.

"He's under house arrest in the palace, I need to get in and need a chance, I'm sure you can think of it." Xiao Mei said.

Li De was silent for a while, not a taste in his heart, what does this mean, dating an old love and looking for someone to help, what is he.

"How can you be sure I can help you?" Li De said lightly.

"I'm sure you're a good guy." Xiao Mei said.

"I'm a good person, but why should I help you." Li De suddenly said unusually.

"You want to take advantage of people's danger?" Xiao Mei said coldly.

"Looks like you asked me for help." Li De said confidently.

"What do you want?" Xiao Mei's voice followed with a cold voice.

"I want to see the face under the hat." Li De said directly.

Li De thought it would be another bargain, but he didn't expect Xiao Mei to take off the hat directly.

The beautiful face makes people unable to move away at a glance, and Li De knows that there is really a face that can dump all beings, and even he is not exempt from vulgarity.

"Have you seen enough?" Xiao Mei said coldly.

"Nope." Li De replied subconsciously.

"Hmph." Xiao Mei interrupted Li De's interest with a cold snort, and at this time, even fools could feel the disgust and disgust from a woman.

"Now it's time for you to redeem your promise." Leaving this sentence, Xiao Mei left the backyard.

Li De thought that he had rich experience in reading beauty, but he was really amazed by the other party, and he said that it should be okay if he regretted it.

When Zhang Chuchen came back, it was already the second half of the night, and Chang'an City implemented a curfew at night, so Li De was relieved to sleep when he came back safely at night.

I don't know if it's because I'm tired from the road, Li De got up very late, and he didn't come out of the room until noon, and no one came to disturb him, but it was comfortable.

As soon as he left the door, he saw a young woman about sixteen or seventeen years old, waiting at the door.

"The eldest son, I am the envoy girl next to the eldest lady, Wen Hui, the eldest lady said that I will listen to the errand in the courtyard of the eldest prince in the future." Wen Hui explained.

Li De looked at the maid in front of him, his eyebrows were clear, and his appearance was good-looking, whether a maid was too shabby, but then asked: "You are here, who is there to serve my mother." ”

"Back to the son, there are two maids beside the eldest lady, and Sister Qiaoyue is here." Wen Hui said.

Li De thought in his heart that it must be to reduce expenses.

"Got it, I'm usually by my mother's side when I'm fine." Li De has already planned that even if Wen Hui is transferred to work on his side, he can specify the content of the work, and he will accept his mother's care at the same time, and he will not worry about the lack of manpower around his mother.

"Okay, it's okay to clean it every three days, just stay with my mother." Li De commanded.

"Yes." Wen Hui didn't know why she arranged it this way, but she had to obey the master's words.

Li De's concept is very unwilling to see this kind of luxurious and corrupt life appear, and it is more comfortable for him to treat his subordinates, such as maids, as employees.

He also doesn't advocate letting the labor force be surplus, what do you do with so many maids and servants in the house, you usually need to clean, if you let people work every day, he is not used to it.

Li De didn't see Pei Qingxuan and Zhang Chuchen in the room, and when he asked Wen Hui, he found out that the two of them went to accompany his mother in the morning, and he was still very relieved.

He promised Xiao Mei to give him the opportunity to meet Chen Shubao, but the idle prince was under house arrest, and it was not easy to meet.

There is no way, if you want to get things done, you must first adjust the difference, and you can't alarm others.

Xiao Mei herself is a hot potato, and her low-key is also because of this.

"Eldest son, there is something that can be handed over to the old man." The housekeeper Li Fu saw Li De wandering around the yard, and walked over with a smile on his face.
