This year's gentlemen are far worse than they were back then!

For the old residents of Luoyang, the experience of this point is naturally greater than anyone else. Of course, this does not mean that there are no unscrupulous people who are rampant and bullying men and women, and this phenomenon can never be eradicated as long as there are people. However, today's gentlemen can only do this, relying on more people to bully fewer people, relying on identity to bully the weak, and it is unthinkable to have any feats.

The quality of the children of the princess has declined, and the quality of those who have a good upbringing among the children of the ministers has also declined. It's not that no one is studious, it's just that there isn't a group of people whose elders are recognized as prodigies or talents at the same time. Therefore, in addition to the marriage of the family, the parents of each family are cautious in determining other marriages.

So, when it was rumored in the emperor's brother's house that the concubine and her wife were ordered by the queen to choose a school-age teenager among the children of the family, it immediately caused a lot of sensation. Although I didn't explain what the reason was, who wouldn't think about it these days? First of all, although Princess Taiping Li Lingyue is still young, she will be able to get married in four or five years, and her son-in-law in his early fifteens can be ready; Second, Li Xian now has two sons and an adopted son, all of which need to be accompanied.

The horses in this year are not as good as the situation when the horses are flooded in the future, and if you are lucky, it is very likely that you will become a high-ranking official. And companion reading will not be accepted for others, look at Li Jingye's few, who doesn't want their children to take a smooth road in the future? Besides, for the first time, the closed door of the Xiuwen Workshop was open to the people. The attraction is naturally endless.

More well-informed people heard that Li Xian was going to take a concubine again, which caused a bigger sensation for a while. Since Li Xian's adult wedding, His Royal Highness the Tang Prince, the number of internal officials has not changed. Does this ban mean that the ministers can also try to increase this number?

This friendship is very important, but it is even more important to use marriage as a bond to firmly tie the future son of the Tang Dynasty. If his daughter is lucky enough to give birth to a son, who can say that she must not be able to win the throne? After all, Li Xian still does not have the most legitimate heir to the eldest son.

Because of the sudden big movements of the wives in the family. Li Xian suddenly fell into unprecedented trouble. He really couldn't figure it out, how old is Li Lingyue now, so she needs to start a blind date so early? Also, a few of my own little babies are still crawling all over the ground. Even if you choose a partner to study, it will take a few years, right? Besides, who has so many mouths and tongues, they actually poked out the matter between him and Su Yu, it's really hateful!

On this day, when he went to see the Empress Wu, his face was gloomy. And others don't understand the meaning of Helan Yan and others' big moves. Empress Wu vaguely guessed a few points. There are many candidates for Princess Li Xian, and it is not necessarily Wei Rong, so this matter was temporarily put on hold by her. Now it seems that her daughters-in-law are burning fire and doing this business, and they have gotten some rumors, so they are in a hurry to divert the attention of those two little girls.

However, this love thing is the most unreasonable, and the little girl's heart is really so easy to transfer? Present. She decided to mention Li Xian a few words.

"Helan and Shen Ruo are in charge of Ling Yue and my grandchildren, I agreed, and your father is also very approves, as for you being harassed and having a headache. Bear with it for the time being, and it's over. It's just that there is one thing I have to remind you, Ah Wei and Wan'er have also grown up, and it is inevitable that there will be some other thoughts, you have to pay attention to them. ”

Li Xian instinctively sensed that there was something unusual in these words. Think about it, the two little girls act affectionately from time to time. Suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. You know, he has always looked at people through the eyes of the future. In his opinion, this teenage girl is almost like a little child, and she is not called an adult until she is in her early twenties. Therefore, whether it is Ah Wei or Shangguan Wan'er, this hug and hug is regarded by him as a coquettish performance of a little girl.

Could it be that he is setting himself on fire?

Li Xian shuddered, in his mother's playful gaze, he walked out of the Dayi Hall dejectedly, completely sure in his heart the purpose of the wife's operation this time---- the drunkard's intention is not to drink, where do they want to determine Li Lingyue's future husband and children to accompany them in the future, obviously they want to give the two little girls' lifelong events!

Thinking of this, he sighed helplessly and resigned himself to the East Palace. Anyway, when I go home at this time, I will bump into those ladies from various families and courtyards, and my ears will not be quiet, so it is better to hide in the East Palace. Before he arrived at the East Palace, he happened to see the figure of the old Shangguan, which was not trivial, and he hurriedly stepped forward and graciously hugged someone's arm.

In the past, only Shangguan Yi took action to arrest Li Xian, but this time he received courteous treatment from the opposite side, and the old Shangguan suddenly felt indescribable vigilance in his heart, and intuitively asked: "Is there something wrong with His Royal Highness the Imperial Brother looking for the old minister?" ”

"Something, of course there's something!" Li Xian smiled and snorted, regardless of what his smiling expression meant in the eyes of others, "Old Shangguan, you have been the chief ruler for so many years, and there are many good families, what is the end of Wan'er's marriage?" ”

Shangguan Yi didn't expect that Li Xianhui would suddenly ask such a question, and he was stunned for a moment. After a long time of coming back to his senses, his originally vigilant eyes suddenly became listless: "Don't mention it." There are really a lot of poems that are circulating outside the world, and there are even more people who praise them, but as soon as people heard that she had followed those people in your family, they immediately retreated. Her background is so hard, who has such a daughter-in-law who doesn't feel worried? ”

At the beginning of this complaint, Shangguan Yi suddenly couldn't stop complaining, and simply sent it all out: "Thirteen Niang has always been a good wife and mother, and the most virtuous woman, originally I expected Wan'er to be like her mother, who knows...... Alas, Princess Taiping has already let out her words, no matter who Wan'er marries in the future, if she is slightly unsatisfactory, she will definitely seek justice. And then there's a couple of ...... in your family. Wan'er herself is both civil and military, can you talk about this marriage? ”

Uh, is that really that exaggerated?

At this time, Li Xian began to lose confidence in his wives' plans. He and Shangguan Wan'er don't look up and look down every day, except for finding that the little girl is full of confidence and living a very nourishing life, he hasn't seen so many of them, at most he thinks they are too tired. People say that a strong woman often hides a cowardly husband in her family, but Shangguan Wan'er and Awei, two little girls, will accept a husband who is weaker than herself?

Hope seems to be extremely slim!

He let go of the hand holding the old Shangguan, and was listless and wanted to leave, but this time he was caught by Shangguan Yi with his backhand. This is nothing, and the other party's sudden words made him stunned--- "Your Highness thinks that if I retire, who is the most suitable person to take over my position?" ”

The old Shangguan is going to retire? This surprise is not trivial, but Li Xian thought about it carefully and found that it was true that this Shangguan Xianggong, who was known as a fluttering immortal, was indeed no longer young now. pinched his fingers and calculated carefully, Shangguan Yi was about to turn seventy! However, there are not a few prime ministers who are over 70 years old, and Shangguanyi seems to be in good health, so why do you suddenly think of retirement?

"Old Shangguan, it shouldn't be a problem for you to support your muscles and bones for another three years or two now, why did you think of this?"

"It's better to retreat bravely than to retreat bravely, my luck is good enough, I don't have to occupy this position to the death, there is no reason to make people laugh!"

When Shangguan Yi said this, Leng Buding remembered what he had discussed with Liu Xiangdao at the beginning. Looking back now, I really think it's ridiculous. If he really came to the last step at that time, maybe he didn't even know where the bones were going by then. When people are old, they have to serve the old and give up their seats to young people, anyway, looking at the current posture of the court, there will be no chaos. As for Si Chen, he has been safe for so many years, is he still worried about doing so much?

Since Shangguan Yi seemed to be serious, Li Xian had to think carefully about this issue. The chief prime minister is not an official title, sometimes it may be a Zhongshu order, sometimes it may be a servant, this is not self-appointed, but it is recognized by the emperor and all the officials. For example, when Li Yifu was still there, the chief prime minister was actually Li Yifu.

"This ...... Have you mentioned this to Your Majesty? After getting a negative answer from Shangguan Yi, Li Xian realized that he was the first person to ventilate to the old Shangguan, and at the same time he was flattered and inevitably said that the old guy was cunning. After thinking carefully for a while, he simply asked, "Then who do you like to succeed the old Shangguan?" ”

"According to his qualifications, it should naturally be Liu Renliang, but he probably won't be out of the mountain now." Regarding Li Xian's move of pushing the ball back, although Shangguan Yi was annoyed, he couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb, "I'm optimistic about Pei Xingjian, but Queen Taishang will definitely not agree, so I think in order to be safe, it is better to let Old Man Hao succeed him." However, he is a year older than me, and when I retreat, he will probably have to follow suit. ”

Li Xian suddenly woke up to the fact that Liu Renliang is seventy-four years old this year, Shangguan Yi is about to be seventy, and this Hao Chujun is already seventy-one. According to this calculation, the government hall will either not retire, and this retirement will be a servant, and I don't know how many people will attract the vacant seats. In the sixty-year-old sequence, there are still many people!

If he really let him choose, he would prefer Pei Yan, however, this promotion is like a rocket, and now if he directly becomes the chief prime minister by bypassing his colleagues, will it cause public outrage? thought about it, but only this candidate could be approved by his mother, and his brother could also be approved, and his friendship with him was not bad. After a moment of silence, he did so.

"It seems that His Highness and I coincide." Shangguan Yi suddenly showed a sly smile, "I have a lot of free time after I am a servant, Your Highness, don't forget to come to my house for a drink!" He didn't say a word---- now I have nothing to do, see if I don't drink you to death!"
