Chapter 324: The Transition Won't Be Long
Su Jing had also heard some rumors about Su Qing when he was in Chang'an, and he naturally didn't believe it in his heart. Who is Su Qing, the sister who grew up with him since childhood, her temperament and character, Su Jing thinks that she is still clear.
She will never do anything that insults the family style and violates the way of the couple, Su Jing firmly believes this. But Su Jing also knew that his sister had a fatal weakness and took care of her family too much.
For the sake of the Su family, she can agree to marry Li Mao without complaint, for the sake of the Su family, she can compromise and seek perfection, after everyone suspected that her brother-in-law Wang Xun was killed by Li Mao, she could swallow her anger and return to Yunzhou to continue to be husband and wife with Li Mao, who was in full swing back then.
Her ** mother, Meng Shi, has admitted that the copper tiger head is coerced by the interests of the Su family and forces her to do things for them, why can't Li Shigu do what the copper tiger head can do?
Because of this knot, Su Jing was a little short of breath in front of Li Mao, and he was sullen at this meal.
Li Mao didn't want to persuade him much about this kind of thing, and when he sent Su Jing out, he advised: "Brother is in the center, his ears and eyes are well-informed, and he should mention more junior brother if he has something." "This is Li Mao begging him, why not give Su Jing a step down?
Su Jing left gratefully.
On the day of living in the house, Li Mao often had a young woman with an elegant temperament and a good face come to Xiaoru and ask who Xiaoru was, Xiaoru smiled and said: "You are really a noble person who forgets things, she is Sister Su Ying." β
Li Mao suddenly realized that when Li Yu first ascended to the throne and released 3,000 palace maids, some homeless palace maids tragically fell into the hands of human traffickers. Because of the turbulent court discussion, Jingzhao Mansion had to intervene and ransom the trafficked palace maid. Later, Li Yu listened to Wang Ling's advice and gave these palace maids to meritorious soldiers for placement.
Li Mao got twenty people that day, and before he left Beijing, he placed them in the new house of Jing'anfang, handed them over to Xiaoru to take care of, and asked Xiaoru to find a good family for them.
This Su Ying is one of the twenty, she was photographed by Zhang Pi, a protΓ©gΓ© of Cheng Wu Yuanheng in the imperial history of the same fang, and became Zhang Pi's wife, because she missed Li Mao's kindness, and often came to the new house to accompany Xiaoru.
Li Mao asked Xiaoru: "The other sisters are all fine now." Xiao Ru took out a powder note from a brocade box, which recorded the whereabouts of the twenty palace maids that Li Mao had contained, and when Li Mao looked through it, Xiao Ru sat on the side and looked a little nervous, until Li Mao smiled and praised her for doing a good job.
Xiao Rucai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Most of them are not bad, but there are also a few sisters who are not ladylike, and it is said that life is very difficult." They are not in Chang'an, and I can't help them if I want to. β
Li Mao grabbed Xiaoru's hand and said: "The moon is cloudy and sunny, and people have joys and sorrows. Just do your best. β
Xiao Ru looked at her fingers and muttered: "I also know that ten fingers will not be normal when stretched out, but when I think of them marrying and suffering, I don't feel good in my heart, I know that this is the case, it is better to leave them behind." β
Xiao Ru took such great pains to send twenty palace maids to marry, naturally she also had her selfishness, in other words, Li Mao also took advantage of her selfishness at the beginning.
"Now I say this, and I will let it go as an afterthought."
Li Mao teased Xiao Ru for a while, hugged her **, since Li Mao came back from Shandong, Xiao Ru found that he had changed a lot, and he cherished her a lot, and he attached great importance to her feelings when the clouds and rain turned over, and Li Mao, who she was unwilling, was never reluctant. Naturally, as long as he wants to, Xiaoru is willing to do anything.
Another day, Su Ying came to find Xiaoru, and after the two muttered in the boudoir for a while, Xiaoru timidly led her to the study to see Li Mao. Li Mao hurriedly got up to welcome Su Ying in, and poured tea for Su Ying with his own hands, Su Ying, who was panicked, was restless, and Xiao Ru persuaded her: "Brother Mao is a free and easy person, and he doesn't care about the etiquette of these laymen." If he wants to pour you tea, you can continue, anyway, when it is ripe, only you can pour him tea. β
Su Ying pursed her lips and smiled, in the old days, when she was in the palace, because of her good looks, and smart and clever, she was fortunate to serve your lord, and she had the opportunity to meet the high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the court, the princes and grandsons, and she saw more people, and her vision was naturally high, and she could hold a level-headed gaze when she saw Li Mao.
In the old days, she also heard Xiaoru say something about Li Mao, and she had already seen this "strange man", but today she met face to face, and saw Li Mao's various grotesque behaviors, and suddenly felt that this trip was worthwhile.
Su Ying bowed and thanked him for the kindness of the original containment, Li Mao asked Xiaoru to pick him up, invited him to sit down, and said: "The appearance is a family, the surname of the inner son is Su, and you are also surnamed Su, and it was still a family five hundred years ago." β
Su Ying asked curiously, "Why five hundred years ago, not three hundred years ago?" β
Li Mao didn't think deeply about this question, rolled his eyes, and said: "This is like an idiom, a conventional saying. β
Su Ying blinked and shook her head, expressing her confusion. Xiaoru smiled: "Leave him alone, he always says something inexplicable, and no one can understand it." β
Su Ying smiled, she heard Xiaoru say that Li Mao was a monk back then, she didn't believe in Buddhism, but because Li Mao was a monk and began to believe in Buddhism, the Buddhist classics are broad and profound, obscure, the more you can't understand it, the more mysterious it feels, since Li Mao is a monk, he must have studied these Buddhist scriptures, and it is not strange for him to say these strange words.
After two days, Su Ying suddenly brought a young scholar to visit, and when she asked, she found out that the scholar was her husband Zhang Pi, Zhang Pi now has no official position, and while following Wu Yuanheng to seek knowledge, while doing some chores under the door.
Wu Yuanheng, as a Zhongcheng in the imperial history, has the ability to find a background for him, but Wu Yuanheng is old in the officialdom, knows the sinister nature of officialdom, and his position is very sensitive.
Out of this calculation, Wu Yuanheng felt very helpless about this proud protΓ©gΓ© who had followed him for many years, was diligent and capable, and was regarded by outsiders as being able to pass on his mantle.
Li Mao saw that Zhang Pi was skilled, quick-thinking, and well-written, so he had the intention of soliciting, but it was not good to say this directly to Zhang Pi, so as not to let Wu Yuanheng misunderstand that he was digging his wall.
So I found a time, personally visited Wu Yuanheng, and begged Zhang Pi to join the army as a soldier in the Youwei Yuan Army.
Soon after the establishment of the Youwei Yuan Army, most of the posts came from the Anton Army, and the local army was different from the forbidden army, and its staff members had a great say in the use of the military envoys, and as long as he moved his hands and feet, Zhang Pi could step into the official career in one step.
Wu Yuanheng weighed it and got up to thank Li Mao.
Yan said: "Just as following me for many years, diligent and filial piety, for the old man to delay the career of enterprising, the old man has been uneasy in his heart, but he is powerless to help him, and now Maohua can be regarded as going to the old man a heart disease, the old man suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, people are young." β
Li Mao said with a smile: "For the sake of the country, how dare you take on the word of thanks?" β
Wu Yuanheng made an exception to leave Li Mao to drink and feast in the house, since he became the middle prince of the imperial history, the Wu family's house seems to have a roaring tiger, and ordinary people really dare not come to it. And there are only a handful of people who can let Yu Shi Zhongcheng personally stay at the banquet.
After Li Mao returned to Beijing, Mo Ke Shentong has not come to visit, and now he is a general of the Yulin Army, and he has to accompany Luan to drive in and out, and he is very favored. Mo Qi couldn't leave, but Guo Ren came several times, and became the wife of the general of the forbidden army, Guo Ren's temperament was very different from before, Li Mao thought about it, and it should be very appropriate to describe it with the words "arrogant".
Guo Ren was a little afraid of Li Mao before, and never dared to speak in front of Li Mao, and when he asked her to speak, he also spoke softly and slowly, but this time it was different, she took the initiative to go to the study to talk to Li Mao about the magic powers, and her eyebrows danced with joy.
Li Mao smiled and listened quietly, waiting until she said goodbye.
Xiaoru was a little dissatisfied, and said: "I really can't figure it out, what is she proud of, the supernatural power is the general of the Yulin Army, escorted by Luan, and said that it is quite majestic, but in fact, she is a flag to open the way, like a mud bodhisattva in the temple, looking at the majesty, who knows the hard work?" β
Li Mao smiled: "If you are suddenly rich, you can't blame her, and it will get better slowly." β
Xiao Ru sighed faintly and said, "I can't take a good look at it, she got her brother and sister-in-law into the capital, asked her to help them everywhere, and went to Chen Shu under your banner to ask him to help with errands." β
Li Mao said: "Guo Liang has entered Beijing, what is he doing in Chang'an?" β
Xiao Ru said: "What can a small Juye County prison do when he comes to the capital, he can't do anything, so he has to fool around." I heard Brother Chen Shu say that he recently got mixed up with the golden eyes of the Four Seas Society, and sure enough, robbers love bandits, and officers and soldiers love bandits. β
Xiao Ru said crisply, her smiling eyebrows and eyes were bent into crescents, Li Mao held her hand lovingly, and instructed: "Su Qing, Wan'er, and Qinniang are not here, you are the mistress of this house, take care of the house, don't let outsiders take advantage of it." β
Xiaoru nodded and said, "I know, I can keep the loneliness and the temptation." β
Li Mao nodded between his eyebrows and said, "The answer is good, and I will double the reward tonight." β
Wei Gao, the envoy of the Xichuan Jiedu and the king of Nankang, Pei Jun of the Jingnan Jiedu, Yan Shou of the Hedong Jiedu, Han Hong of the Xuanwu Jiedu, Li Yuanyuan of the Yiwu Military Jiedu, and Li Shidao of the Pinglu Junjiedu went to the imperial court almost at the same time to invite Li Chun, the king of Guangling, to be the crown prince.
The call of the court and the central government to ask for the establishment of the crown prince also rose wave after wave, and the lieutenant of the two armies of Shence and the fifth Shouliang, and the envoy of the sixth army also asked the Son of Heaven to establish the prince as soon as possible to consolidate the country. The Son of Heaven Li Yu was determined to obey the will of the people, and officially made Li Chun, the king of Guangling, the crown prince.
Whenever there is a major event in the country, the security force of the capital has to go through a test, and this time is no exception, Li Mao ended his home recuperation early and returned to the Youweiyuan military barracks.
Li Chun's becoming the crown prince was a matter of course, and there was little opposition from inside and outside.
The alarm was lifted, but Li Mao did not return to Jing'anfang. Chen Shutuo asked someone to bring him a message, and Wang Shuwen, who stayed in the capital to worry about his mother, did not stop during this time, and was still running non-stop, in order to make a comeback. His comrades Wang Ling, Liu Yuxi, Han Tae, Liu Zongyuan and others are also running around.
Mixing in the officialdom, not admitting defeat is one of the basic qualities, Wang Shuwen is so tossed is understandable, Li Mao doesn't want to provoke right and wrong, so he avoids him, no matter how bold he Wang Shuwen is, he will never dare to openly run to the forbidden army camp to win him over.
