Chapter 143: The Newlywed Returns to the Door
"What did the lady tell you just now? Are you so happy? β
On the carriage, watching the three girls chattering non-stop, Li Ye couldn't help but be a little curious. At this time, his mood did not calm down, mainly because Li Yi brought him a lot of shock today, this seemingly mediocre emperor is not as mediocre as he imagined.
He doesn't know where he can go now, Hunan? Shannan Dongdao, or Jingnan? It is even possible to go to the land of Annam.
Of course, if you don't have a choice, even Annan has to go, but you need to waste more time. However, the advantage of Annam is that it is located on the southwestern border, except for the threat of Nanzhao, there are no major rebellions, and the division of feudal towns here is not as difficult to control as in the Central Plains.
Although there is something in his heart, Li Ye did not show it, these things, there is no need to let his own woman have a headache with him.
"The lady lady and a few princesses rewarded some jewels to the concubines, and... Liu Chenyan didn't have any scheming, she said it directly, and stretched out her right hand as she spoke, revealing bracelets with emerald green bodies one by one.
At the same time, Sun Mei and Li Xianglan's children also took out the rewards they received, including hairpins, bracelets, etc., which were all given by Zhang Junning, the lady concubine, Princess Anhua and Princess Changning.
Of course, the two princesses usually don't have much money, and Li Yi doesn't love these two sisters very much, so they don't have much good Dingxi in their hands, so naturally the jewelry that the two princesses gave to the third daughter is not better than that of Concubine Shu.
"What else?" Seeing Liu Chenyan blushing when she said this, Li Ye was a little curious.
"Your Royal Highness, Concubine Niangniang, let a few concubines go to the temple to worship the Bodhisattva... Liu Chenyan thought of what Concubine Shuniang said before, and she couldn't say it anymore, so she didn't say it clearly for a long time.
"Worship the Bodhisattva? Is it a child? Does this require going to the temple to worship the Buddha? It's a big deal, this king just works hard at night. Li Ye smiled evilly.
The third girl suddenly blushed, but she didn't expect Li Ye to say it directly. Sun Mei's two daughters were relatively quiet in front of people, and Liu Chenyan quickly returned to her true nature, and she was annoyed and angry, she directly swung her pink fist and slapped Li Ye's chest a few times, "Your Highness, what do you say?" Shame on you! β
Li Ye directly waved his big hand, hugged Liu Chenyan over, held him in his arms, and lightly touched the buttocks with his other hand. Originally, Li Ye wanted to teach this little fierce horse a good lesson and Zhen Zhenfugang, but soon he became addicted, and the movements in his hands became gentle.
Liu Chenyan also enjoyed Li Ye's caresses, and finally couldn't help but cry out comfortably.
"Whew!"
"Oops... Hearing the whisper next to her, Liu Chenyan realized that this was in the carriage, and there were two sisters next to her, a fair-skinned smiling face was suddenly covered with redness, ashamed and angry, and wanted to break free from Li Ye's embrace, "No, the two sisters next to me are still there." β
Li Ye glanced at Sun Mei and the two who were blushing, and said indifferently, "What are you afraid of, Mei'er and Lan'er are not outsiders, in two days, this king must wait for the three of you together." β
The third girl suddenly snorted, blushing and not daring to speak, so Liu Chenyan couldn't help but scold there. However, in front of the girls, Li Ye naturally couldn't lose face, so Liu Chenyan was unlucky, until she returned to the palace, the other party's face was still red, and she immediately went back to the room to change her clothes after a while.

Li Ye just joked with a few girls to deepen their feelings, and he didn't go too far. It was in the carriage, and there were pro-soldiers outside, so Li Ye naturally wouldn't come to the carriage to prostitute himself or something. However, Li Ye is also a little curious, if he does that thing in the carriage, is it considered a 'horse shock'? Or is it a 'car shock'?

The return door is the last step of the wedding, which is generally three days after the wedding, but there are also six, seven, nine, ten, or full moons, and it is not fixed. Huimen is a marriage custom of traditional Han weddings, where the son-in-law carries gifts and returns to his parents' home with the bride to visit his wife's parents and relatives. Only after the return door can the wedding be truly completed.
However, Li Ye is special, so he has to come one by one when he returns to the door, and naturally he goes to Liu Chenyan's mother's house at first.
According to custom, when the son-in-law returns to the door, he must hold a banquet to express his congratulations. For today's King Shou leading Princess Shou back to the door, the Liu Mansion was ready early, so naturally they had to celebrate a lot. Not only did the clansmen of the Liu Mansion rush back in advance, but many of them who had in-laws or even just relatives with the Liu Mansion came.
The Liu family is not without any background in Chengdu Mansion, but it is not as huge as the Sun family. The Liu clan in Chengdu was once glorious, but it had fallen decades ago, but now there are signs of a resurgence.
The head of the family, Liu Qi, is a lieutenant general in the Tiance Army, and Liu Qi's younger brother, Liu Lin, is also about to be transferred from a county order to Yuzhou Sima because of Liu Qi's relationship. Yuzhou is today's Chongqing, the state is governed in Ba County, and Sima's position is in charge of military-related affairs, which is undoubtedly easy for the Liu family in the military of previous dynasties, and the position under Sima Zheng in Yuzhou is six products.
Although he left the land of Xichuan, it was also a good start for Liu Lin. Of course, the other party can be promoted to Yuzhou Sima, which is naturally Li Ye's strength, after all, Li Ye is the son-in-law of Liu Fu, and it is still possible to help the princess's elders get a better position.
It's not that Li Ye doesn't want to get a position for him in Xichuan, but Chen Jingxuan opposes it. The reason why he went to Yuzhou, which is under the jurisdiction of Dongchuan, was also because the relationship between Yang Shili and Tian Lingzi and Chen Jingxuan was not as good as before, so he agreed to Liu Lin to go to Dongchuan.
Liu Lin was promoted because of Li Ye's relationship, and other relatives who have ideas will naturally not miss this opportunity for Li Ye to return to the door.
Although Liu Qi was a little unhappy about the idea of his relatives, he did not get angry on this important day. He knows who his son-in-law is, if he wants to get an official position from the other party because he is just a relative, it is impossible, you have to have the ability.
The daughter became the princess of Shou, and Liu Qi's position in the family was even stronger, so when he saw Li Ye and his daughter, the smile on Liu Qi's face never broke, and when the two saluted him, he happily helped the two up, "Your Highness, Yan'er, please get up." His Royal Highness is a prince, and he deserves such a great gift. β
Li Ye said with a smile, "Now there is no prince, princess, Yan'er is the daughter of my father-in-law, I am my father-in-law's son-in-law, and it is natural for the son-in-law to salute his father-in-law." β
Although Liu Qi didn't agree, his actual actions revealed his true thoughts. There is a prince as a son-in-law, which is a good fortune that the Liu family has accumulated in several lifetimes and cannot exchange, so it is no wonder that Liu Qi is unhappy.
Soon, Liu Qi and his wife He gave Li Ye a gift. The Liu family is not a rich family, even if it has a big gift from the He family, it is only a good point for ordinary wealthy families, so this gift is naturally not very valuable. The two of them gave a set of four treasures of the study, Li Ye is not a commander of the war, but also can write poems and write good handwriting. Of course, this set of four treasures of the study is not ordinary, but it was found by He Dingxuan from the Jiangnan area.
In addition to Liu Qi and his wife who gave gifts, the elders of the other Liu clans also sent gifts that had been prepared for a long time, except for He Dingxuan, who gave more valuable, the others were average, but they were all carefully prepared. Of course, Li Ye is not stingy, he came this time, but he brought a lot of gifts to the door, which are far more precious than those given by these elders.
"Yan'er, you go with your mother-in-law, I have something to discuss with my father-in-law." Li Ye said with a smile.
Seeing Li Ye talking in front of so many people, Liu Qi understood that the other party had something to do, and immediately took Li Ye to his study to discuss things, naturally it was better to be in a secluded place like the study. In addition to Liu Qi, Li Ye also asked He Dingxuan and Liu Lin to follow together.
When he came to the study, Liu Qi let him go down after the next person made tea, so in the study, Li Ye, Liu Qi, He Dingxuan and Liu Lin were left, and of course Zhang Wei.
"Your Highness, is there anything important for you?" Liu Qi was a little curious.
"There is a matter, just while you are here, especially my uncle is also there, I said it in advance." Li Ye nodded, and the uncle in his mouth was naturally He Dingxuan, who was Liu Chenyan's uncle.
The three people in front of me are completely three styles. Liu Qi's military aura is very heavy; He Dingxuan is naturally a businessman, and his breath is very heavy; As for Liu Lin, although he is Liu Qi's younger brother, he does not have the military temperament of Liu Qi, but is full of Confucianism, like a Confucian student.
"Your Highness, please speak."
Everyone was a little curious about what Li Ye was going to say, and he wanted to call all three of them for something. He Dingxuan is okay, after all, he is a business partner with Li Ye, and the relationship is also close, but Liu Lin and Li Ye have met less than five times combined.
Looking at the three people in front of him, Li Ye said with a smile, "There is something I have to tell you in advance so that you can prepare." After a while, after a year at the latest, I will go to the local government and no longer stay in the DPRK and Xichuan. β
"What?" The most surprised was not Liu Qi, but He Dingxuan, seeing the faces of Liu Qi and Liu Lin next to him, he realized that he was abrupt, and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm a little out of shape." β
No wonder He Dingxuan is so out of shape, now that He Mansion has been tied to the ship of Shouwang Mansion, if Li Ye leaves Xichuan, wouldn't He Mansion, who is sitting on huge wealth, become the prey in the eyes of those powerful and powerful?
In the past few years, He Fu has relied on Shouwangfu, not only almost monopolizing Xichuan tea in the tea business, but also making a lot of money in other businesses, which naturally offended many people. It's no wonder He Dingxuan was so surprised, and even a little anxious.
"Is what Your Highness said true?" Liu Qi said tentatively.
"When did my father-in-law ever see me joking about this kind of thing. Your Majesty has already said that if nothing else, I will go to one of the places in Shannan Dongdao, Hunan, and Jingnan. The reason why I told you in advance is also because I want you to be mentally prepared.
Especially my uncle, I should have planned early! β
After speaking, Li Ye looked at He Dingxuan, who was worried, and he knew that this matter had the greatest impact on him.
