Li Yangguan was full of soup and water, but his eyes were smiling, and he was really obedient, he didn't comfort him at all, he only pinched the small cup in his hand, and listened to the "good girl" who was denounced as a "bad son" over and over again in the blink of an eye.

What is a person, a flesh-and-blood, living person, in front of this thin man?

Li Xiang continued: "Sure enough, the concubine just can't be on the stage, and it's hard to change the cheapness!" This concubine is really not as good as the one she raised, and she even deceived her true appearance! What else is said to be just an ordinary envoy's daughter, you listen! If she was really indulged, would the prime minister, the prime minister of Nanshang, still be able to go on with peace of mind? I'm ashamed to die! ”

"Father doesn't have to tell me this," Li Yangguan watched him pacing back and forth in front of him, his mouth full of high-sounding beautiful words, his heart was already disgusted, and naturally there was no room for his mouth, "Such a woman, do you still want her to be the queen?" ”

"No need!" Li Xiang flicked his wide sleeves, and didn't want to mention Concubine Li for half a sentence, "It's good to look at your Qing'er sister, since she was a child, she invited a female master to teach her etiquette and "Female Commandments", and she did a good job in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and female red, which was quite praised. ”

He paused, stretched out his hand and twisted his beard, "It's not too young now, and it's just right to be sent to the palace half a year younger than Nanshang Wang Xun." ”

Li Yangguan suddenly wanted to hear that Concubine Li was coming. Because he didn't want to hear the name that came out of Li Xiang's mouth even more.

Li Qingzi Jinzhen, the third child born to his mother, his and Li Qun's own sister, and the only concubine of the Li Mansion.

Li Qing is undoubtedly the person who can bring the greatest value to Li Xiang among so many children in the Li Mansion.

Unlike Li Ning, Li Ning is at most a nobody placed by Li Xiang next to Wang Xun of Nanshang, but Li Qing is the "general" on his chessboard, from the moment he was born in the mansion, he left Li Qi's clan and was personally taught by Li Xiang, completely for the posterior.

However, this concubine is similar to Li and seems to come out of the same mold.

has received the attention of Li Xiang since he was a child, and naturally became the pearl of the Li Mansion. At that time, because of the identity of Li Yangguan's eldest son, Li Qing was quite close to him. Things such as steaming flower cakes, embroidering clothes, and purses were all taken by her to take the initiative. Whenever there is a banquet, when Li Xiang proposes to let Li Yangguan bring a younger sister to attend, he always takes Li Qing on a trip together.

Therefore, some people often say that Li Xiang's pair of dragons and phoenixes have no guesses, which is very good.

But one day, Li Yangguan bumped into Li Qing in the backyard, whipping a group of concubines and concubines. Later, I paid more attention to it, and realized that she also let the slaves and maids crawl and beg for food like wild dogs, and she rode on the nurse, holding the rope tied to the nurse's neck, and shouted one by one: "Run!" Bastard! Run! ”

She poisoned Miss Shu's voice, because Li Xiang once praised her for singing slightly better than Li Qing; She drowned the third son, because Li Xiang had given him a jade flute as a birthday gift, and the jade flute was what Li Qing had always wanted; She had the eldest son's hand broken because his handwriting was very good...... Such things were all strongly suppressed by Li Xiang.

What's more, because of the sentence of the first emperor at the state banquet back then, "Although Jinzhen is good, it is not as beautiful as Mrs. Li's back then", he smashed the wine cup alive and used its fragments to cut Li Qi's face.

Even if she doesn't let go of her biological mother, what else can't she do.

Every time his eyes touched the deep scar on his mother's cheek, he wanted to beat Li Qingpang hard.

Send Li Qing to the palace, does this palace still want to live in peace?

I'm afraid that not only will she not allow other concubines to live in peace, but even Nan Zixiao will have to calculate!

Li Yangguan hid his thoughts, and only stared at Li Xiang coldly. In his opinion, Li Xiang has become a powerful ghost with a blue face and fangs, teeth and claws, and it is not enough to send a daughter into the palace.

There was no speech for a while, and the four stove-smoked rooms in the room were extremely hot, and Li Yangguan, who was pressed by the rich sandalwood, was almost out of breath. But he didn't speak, and Li Xiang didn't say much. The two only looked at each other silently, and there was no extra movement.

In the end, it was Li Xiang who spoke first.

This time, he looked at Li Yangguan with a smile, his face was kind and like a loving father. He said to Li Yangguan: "Ah Xun, you are not too young, right?" ”

Li Yang was startled in his concern, his temples bulged twice, and a bad premonition came to his heart.

"As the saying goes, it is only natural for a man to start a family and start a business. You've reached the age when it's time to marry a wife, and you should always have a family affair for you. Li Xiang pondered his words, "You are the head of the Seven Princes, so naturally you want to find a girl who is the right person." According to the father's meaning, the eldest princess Nanying is very good. As one of the six wise women, she has a heavy army, and you are now the commander of the garrison army, which is just a good match. As long as you are willing, the Father will ask her for you. ”

"If you want to be the right person, there are many women who can ask for it, why do you like Your Highness alone?" Li Yangguan asked rhetorically. In fact, this rhetorical question was meaningless, of course he knew that Li Xiang was just in love with the tiger talisman left by the first emperor to Nan Zisheng.

Li Xiang followed the temptation: "You think, you are now the commander of the first army, the head of the three princes around Nanshang Wang Xun, and a first-class squire with a knife, if you marry Nan Zisheng again, will Your Majesty not reuse you?" At that time, you will be the important minister of Nanshang, and your power will cover the sky, do you want any more beautiful women and treasures? ”

Li Xiang didn't believe it, he didn't believe that Li Yangguan had no ambitions.

The emperor was ambitious, and he wanted to assist the first emperor to unify the Central Plains as a retainer of the first emperor; Zhang Xiang is ambitious, he wants the family to spread out and continue from generation to generation; As the prime minister of a country, Li Xiang is also ambitious...... Don't say it, his mind is a clear person.

But Li Yangguan didn't reply, he just stretched out his hand to wipe the soup on his face, and changed the topic: "Don't talk about this, what about grandmother and grandfather?" I have been away from Beijing for too long, and I miss him very much. Tomorrow I want to prepare a carriage and visit them in the annex to the east. ”

Li Xiangdao: "They're gone." He opened his eyes and covered his face with his hands as if his heart was aching, so that no one could see the slightest hint.

"Gone?" Li Yangguan felt that something was wrong, when the two old men heard that their son was going to take them to live in the capital together, they were really happy to laugh, and even the folds on their faces were stretched. They sold the land and surplus grain at a cheap price, and happily followed Li Yangguan all the way into the city, and their joy was overflowing...... The second elder has always been strong, and Li Yangguan didn't think about anything else, but said strangely, "No, my grandmother and grandfather have nowhere to go except for other courtyards, where can they go?" ”

"The courtyard suddenly walked into the water, the two old people were inconvenient, and when the people in their own appearance received the news, they had unfortunately passed away......" Li replied fluently, but because he answered so skillfully, he revealed many loopholes, like deliberately arranged words.

Li Yangguan slammed his palm and clenched the cup in his hand!

The pain made him still have a trace of reason, and he stared at Li Xiang deadly, incredulous and unbelievable. Walk in the water? Joke! Who would dare to set fire to Lee Sang's house on his turf! How many people has Li Xiang planted on his own territory! Can they not know that the other courtyard lives Li Xiang's father, that is, the parents of their master? Can you not go to put out the fire?

The second elder accidentally died in the sea of fire, it is okay to deceive people outside with these words, but he dares to use them to deceive him?

He really didn't expect that for the sake of the word "power", Li Xiang would be able to disregard human ethics so much that even his closest relatives could personally eliminate it.

Such a person is so cold-blooded and terrifying.

"Li Zuocheng, are you still a person?" Li Yangguan didn't even want to call the "father" who was false and wronged, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he shouted Li Xiang's official position.

"Presumptuous! What are you to call yourself that way? Li Xiang was furious, "You look like this, do you suspect that the prime minister is doing it?" What a virtue you are! Is that the kind of person he is? ”

"Mo isn't it?" Li Yangguan sneered, he sighed leisurely, and spoke unhurriedly, "I think you know better than anyone else about what happened back then." ”

In fact, the left minister back then still had a bit of a relationship with Li Xiang.

At that time, Zuo Xiang's surname was Qi, and he was the uncle of Li Qi and his mother's mother. One day, Li Qi was attracted by the young man who was still delivering vegetables and pulling goods, Li Xiang in his youth, and was fascinated by him, and insisted on marrying his wife despite the opposition of the clan. At that time, Qi Zuocheng talked to Li Qi's family in private, saying that Li Xiang was not reliable, and he flattered people when he saw them, and he was a wall-to-wall grass. This man can only be poor and humble with him, but he must never want to be rich and rich with him.

It's a pity that Li Qi's heart is budding in spring, where can he listen to her uncle's words, just quarrel and break up unhappily, and even intensify his private meeting with Li Xiang.

Li Xiang was not in the right mind at that time, and took advantage of the day and night to pull everyone's girlfriend Li Qi's to drink, and took the opportunity to do the girl's house. He refused to give up, and secretly found Qi Zuocheng, threatening that if he didn't give him an official position, he would not marry the Li Qi clan, and he would even make a big deal of publicity, so that the Qi clan would be humiliated.

With skin to skin, Qi Zuocheng was no longer happy, so he could only arrange the marriage of Li Qi and Li Xiang, and in order to avoid suspicion, let them live in the countryside for nearly ten years. Li Xiang has a big appetite, he has stopped all these years, and as soon as he takes office, he wants a knighthood, plus he can speak well, and he is good at observing words and feelings. It's just that Qi Zuocheng has always been jealous and hateful, and he is quite prejudiced against Li Xiang, and Li Xiang is not bored. Anyway, they know the matter, and no one wants to pierce this layer of paper.

Until one day, Li Xiang drank and made a mistake, and Qi Zuocheng wrote to the emperor to dismiss his official.

Li Xiang was in a hurry, and used a large amount of money and connections, a month of chronic poison, and a fire, burning only the women and children of the Qi family.

At that time, the rest of the Qi family was isolated and helpless, crying and crying to seek help from Li Xiang, what did this man say? Please rest assured that the Qi family will recommend him as the prime minister of Zuo, and he will definitely find out who set the fire to the Qi family, causing his benefactor Qi Zuocheng to die.

However, Li Yangguan was thirteen years old at that time, and Li Qun was already five or six years old, Li Yangguan happened to be behind the screen, and he could see clearly, as soon as the Qi family left on the front foot, Li Xiang secretly called someone to go to the Qi Mansion to intercept people, except for Li Qi's family, more than 120 people up and down the Qi family all died in the hands of Li Xiang.

That scene is so similar to what the man said at this moment.

"You killed Qi Xiang, because he was not used to seeing you, and wanted to dismiss your officials, knowing that you did not believe in your words; You killed your grandparents because of their low status and fear that someone would criticize your origins in the future, but I'm right, huh? ”

Li Yangguan's aggressive posture completely revealed the shame that Li Xiang was eager to hide. Li Xiang was unreasonable to refute him, so he had to shout at the top of his voice: "That picture is also your father!" Get out of here! ”

Then, Li Yangguan was disgusted with him, so he picked up an object casually, and he didn't know what it was, so he smashed it according to Li Yangguan's front door!

The object flew past Li Yangguan's forehead. Li Yang didn't move, he knew that his head was scratched, and he even made a cut. There was a hot and moist liquid running down the side of the head and spreading to the corners of the lips, fishy and sweet.

So he got up and said, "My son is leaving." Then he gently placed the cup in his hand to one side. The moment before stepping out of the room. He suddenly turned his head, smiled coldly, and said to Li Xiang: "As for Fang Cai's father's proposal, I refuse, my son is not willing to marry Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." As for whom the son pleases and whom he will marry, the father will not bother. ”

So he stepped out of the door and slammed the door on it.

The wine cup on the table was torn apart and shattered in an instant, and there was no chance of repairing it.

............

.....

Li Yang closed the room, and the cold wind filled his sleeves, which was really cold to the bone.

However, this cool night breeze is farther than the noble agarwood in Li Xiang's house, which makes Li Yangguan hundreds of times more comfortable. He took a few deep breaths before he was completely quiet and felt extremely comfortable.

I heard the sound of porcelain falling to the ground in Li Xiang's house, continuously, and even better, it was really noisy. But Li Yangguan was suddenly in a good mood, and he couldn't wait to be able to look up to the sky and laugh three times, of course, he really laughed a few words and walked along the way back to his house.

Occasionally, I saw a clump of plum blossoms blooming victoriously, so I gently broke off a few thick and long branches and carried them out.

............

.....

When he arrived at the house, Li Qun had not yet slept. When he saw him, he blamed him clearly: "You also know what your father is like, and you have to be stubborn with him." With that, he took out the usual plaster from the house and carefully applied it to his brother's forehead.

Li Yangguan put the few plum blossoms in the plain black bottle by the window, and Li Qun had already made the bed for him.

So I went to sleep, not wanting to think about anything more, but I was physically and mentally exhausted, and lay down heavily, dreamless all night.
