When Li Tong and his entourage returned to the palace of Jishanfang, not only the family members of Daodaofang had already arrived, but the officials of Fengge, including many guests who had heard the news, were already waiting in the palace.

Li Tong first instructed his family to bring Princess Taiping and Wei Tuan'er into the back hall, and then he himself was restrained in front of the hall and accepted the congratulations of the guests of the palace.

The appointment of the general of the Nanya is generally conferred by the palace or the palace, and there is no need to enter the province to receive the award. This time it was also a simple ceremony, and it took less than half a day from the resolution of the government hall to the issuance of the book. There are people in the court who are good officials, and if they are still prime ministers of the martial arts, they can be stuck for a few days just by making books.

After a pleasant exchange, Li Tong also learned a little about the discussion of his appointment in the political affairs hall. Zhu Zai is quite middle, and Nayan Yao Xuan is naturally a clear supporter of the king.

As for the other supporter, it is Li Zhaode, the squire of the Fengge, and even Li Zhaode's support is even stronger than Yao Xuan's, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the final word is conclusive. After all, since Li Zhaode visited the prime minister, he has always been known for his strength in the political affairs hall, and his influence is far from being comparable to Yao Xuan, the prime minister of Jiangnan.

After learning this, Li Tong couldn't help but sigh that he was really in the rivers and lakes, and he couldn't help himself. He didn't have much contact with Li Zhaode, and occasionally had a few contacts, although the atmosphere was not bad, and Li Zhaode also expressed his appreciation to him on different occasions.

But with his filial piety as an heir, this old harmony is no longer maintainable. Li Zhaode is the most staunch protector of the imperial heir in the current court, especially when the prime minister was repeatedly suppressed during the Tianzhi period, whether it was his own political demands or the current situation, he had to play this role.

Out of the need to unite his comrades, Li Zhaode should no longer express anything too cordial to Li Tong, no matter what he thinks in private.

But Li Zhaode's own courage to express and dare to express himself has actually made his situation very dangerous, and his comrades, although they can't be called all waste, are almost the same, and they cannot, or are unwilling to help him share the political risks.

Wu Chenghe, the king of Wei, has already regarded Li Zhaode as a thorn in his side, Li Zhaode wants to get help, and the acting king, who has clashed with the martial family several times, is one of his few options at the moment. In particular, what Li Tong is aggressive this time is the forbidden army system that is the core of the martial family, and once it is embedded in it, the checks and balances on the kings of the Wu clan will be greater.

Of course, after this incident, Li Zhaode's popularity will definitely be degraded to a certain extent. There may be people who scold Zhaode for betraying and sycophant kings behind their backs, but they will not discuss whether they can and dare to help Li Zhaode withstand the pressure from the kings of the Wu clan.

After sending off the officials authorized by the Feng Pavilion, Li Tong returned to the front hall and held a banquet with the officials and guests to celebrate the transfer.

Although he was changed from the governor of the second rank and the state to the general of the third grade Zuo Qianniuwei, the official character was lowered by one level, but anyone understands that the two are still different, of course, if someone loves the taste of Shanxi old vinegar, then it is two words.

However, the identity of the general of Nanya is already sensitive, and the left and right Qianniuwei are even more special, plus the news has not completely spread, so there are not many guests present today, mainly because of the family members who are already close to each other, such as the in-laws Dugu, the eldest cousin Fang Rong, etc., and there is also a more important guest, that is, Li Tong and his father-in-law Tang Xiuzhong, who has just arrived in Shendu.

As for other courtiers such as Li Qiao and Shen Yanqi, they did not show up themselves, but only sent their families to send a gift. And even in the future, they will no longer go to and from the palace as they used to, and they should avoid it.

Skipping the congratulations of the official affairs, Li Tong looked at Tang Xiuzhong who was sitting at the table with a smile and said with a smile: "There have been a lot of affairs recently, so I don't have time to ask in detail, what are the arrangements for the father-in-law and his relatives after they enter the capital?" There is a lot of leisure in the guest house, you may wish to enter the residence temporarily, visit day and night, and the friendship between relatives is stronger. ”

Tang Xiuzhong is not alone in the capital this time, as well as his brother Tang Xianxuan and several servants, all of whom are heroic and strong. Li Tong is in a higher position now, and no matter how many people his cronies are available, he is not disgusted, and he is very happy to look at a few eldest brothers.

Although Tang Xiujing was far away in Anxi, he sent many descendants to the Shendu, and it seems that he also planned to use the identity of this layer of national relatives to manage in the Shendu. This is also in line with Li Tong's vision, and I am happy to see it come to fruition.

For his son-in-law, Tang Xiuzhong was very satisfied, and when he heard this intimate invitation, he was immediately moved. He only has one daughter under his knees, and he rarely got close to him outside the old eunuchs, but now of course he hopes to get along nearby.

But it wasn't his business at the moment, Tang Xiuzhong was not in a hurry to answer, he just looked at Tang Xianxue, the elder brother who was seated. Tang Xianxue is not much older than Tang Xiuzhong, but he has been a general for a long time, and his appearance is older than his actual age, and after hearing this, he crossed his hands and said: "The king is polite, although it is disrespectful, but the family enters Luo, and the residence is not short-lived, and there are a lot of people, so I dare not bother for a long time, and I have been looking for a house business recently." ”

After Li Tong heard this, he nodded with a smile, and said to the government staff: "The in-laws enter Luo to buy a house, which is also an important matter in the family. ”

"The king has newly conferred a heavy position, and there will be a lot of government affairs, and these human affairs will not be necessary. If you walk into labor with a low job, you must settle your sister-in-law's family properly. ”

Yang Juren, who was sitting in the far seat, stood up suddenly after hearing this, and said with a straight face with his fists clenched.

Li Tong looked at this guy who was eager to perform, if it weren't for the fact that he followed Tang Xiuzhong and his party into the mansion this time, he would have almost forgotten about this person, and after hearing the words, he thought for a while, and nodded: "That's okay, Yang Jun is an old member of the government, and he is also a family member, so you can do it for you, which is reassuring." ”

Tang Xiuzhong raised his eyebrows after hearing this, he was dissatisfied with this wife and brother in his heart, but at this time, he was worried that the king would be deceived by his tricks because of his face, and he regretted a little in his heart that he agreed to let him enter the palace together.

Li Tong smiled and nodded to Tang Xiuzhong, although his father-in-law is not young, he is quite straightforward and has little city. What kind of character Yang Juren is, of course he understands, but employing people is not to choose any moral pacesetter, if someone is willing to work hard, then he might as well use it.

"Today's congratulations, there is also a gift."

After sitting for a while, Tang Xianxuan raised his hand and motioned for Xi Zhongerlang to go out, and soon led a tall horse into front of the hall. The horse has a dragon posture, the blades are like wings, the fur color is pale yellow and white, the horse's lips are blackened, and the neighing sound is like a roar.

"This—This is Telebiu!"

Huan Yanfan, who was born in the forbidden army, saw a number of horses, and after a rough look, he couldn't help but get up from the table, and the arrow walked in, but as soon as Fang approached, the horse stood up, neighing and demonstrating, and everyone in the hall laughed again.

"The army has good eyesight, this horse is the Dawan Liangji Teller Biao, and it is different from the Shendu City, but it is the ancient method of the Tutu Valley Hun Dragon Horse."

Tang Xianxue also got up, raised his hand to the west with no lack of pride, looked back at Li Tong and said with a smile: "The old battle of Anxi has won a lot, and this horse is also among them." Most of the guards are gifted, this horse is given to the father, because I know that the king likes the circus, I am specially instructed to wait for this time to send the house! ”

When Li Tong heard this, he was immediately shocked, and he stood up from the seat in a hurry, and said with a little shame: "Private and leisurely, but daily pastime, how dare you be so loving as a prince!" The good horse is on the side, and he can kill Hu Fan for the leg strength of the famous general, but in me he is just a plaything, which is really deserved! ”

Having said that, he looked at the horse with excitement in his expression.

Famous horses are a man's romance, and Teller Biu is famous all over the world because he was his grandfather Li Shimin's mount, even if it is just similar skin in the city, as long as it can be named this name, the price is huge, not to mention that the horse in front of him is genuine, transported from the far west to the Shendu, just consumed along the way, I am afraid that it will far exceed the value of the horse several times.

A group of government officials also followed the king into the court to admire the style of the famous horses. Seeing that Li Tong was eager to try and wanted to step forward for a test ride, Tang Xianxue smiled and explained: "Long-distance running, horsepower loss, still need to be carefully adjusted, in March, the king can ride a horse!" ”

"Quickly introduce it into the stable, and you must raise it carefully!"

Li Tong is also as good as a stream, he also saw that the horse's skin and bones were exposed, and he was a little haggard, but even if it was just the bone appearance, he was already so miraculous, and when he was fat and strong, it would be okay!

The famous horse understands human nature, seeing that this horse is still quite resistant to himself, Li Tong also plans to take the time to personally feed and cultivate his feelings in the next period of time, and when he kills Xuanwumen in the future, he will ride this horse and please a good fortune!

Li Shouli was also very greedy when he saw this horse, and kept watching the horse being introduced into the stable, only then did he withdraw his somewhat reluctant gaze, and sighed in his mouth: "Third, you are really enviable!" There are already a lot of famous horses in the stable, and now there is another one. I'm shabby, although there are a few horses at home to boast of, but they are all left by you......"

When he said this, he frequently glanced at his father-in-law, Dugu Yuanjie, who came to congratulate him.

Dugu Yuanjie just bowed his head and was silent, but he was ashamed and indignant in his heart, can you still play more obviously with that look? Now that I am a chef, I still have the light of marrying my daughter. If you can also mix with the general of Nanya, why not give you a famous horse?

The group returned to the hall with a smile, and before they could sit down, a door came down to report that it was the opposite street, and Wu Chenghe, the king of Wei, sent his family to the mansion to congratulate.

Li Tong knew that Wu Chengsi would never have any good ideas, but it was not good to turn people away directly, so he signaled to lead people in to see what Wu Chengsi was going to do.

Without a twist, a subordinate of the Wei Palace, wearing a cyan round-necked robe, hurriedly entered the hall, holding a brocade box, and put his hands on top when he entered, and said in his mouth: "Knowing that the king is the new Nanya, His Royal Highness the King of Wei has been specially appointed to congratulate him." ”

Li Tong motioned for Yang Siqiao to go down to the hall to take the gift, and opened it on the spot, only to see a rusty firewood knife placed inside, and his face suddenly sank, Lao Tzu's new Zuo Qianniuwei, you give me a rusty firewood knife, who do you scold?

After a little muttering, he instructed Lego a few more words, and Lego turned out of the outer hall, and when he returned, he was holding a smooth stone with one side and a rough stone with some difficulty.

"King Wei's gift is profound, and I should also pay it back, so I can give it away. The blade is sharpened, and then the King of Wei is invited to appreciate the beautiful weapon! ”

Li Tong said with a smile in the hall, Lao Tzu will use this rusty woodknife to cut you in the next year!
