Chapter 608 The princess gets married, Liulang accompanies the spirit, Lao Di arrests people, Lao Di arrests people

Under the background of Emperor Li Da's announcement that he was going to abdicate, although the Ministry of Rites conscientiously handled the matter of marriage, only God knows whether it was a failure to work or a violation of the yang and the yin. Li Xian didn't lobby his mother at all, but muttered a few words to an official in charge of this matter, and quietly pulled out the two files.

So, after a long time, the candidate for the colt finally surfaced after nearly a month. One is Quan Yi, this person is also from a family, his ancestors were all high-ranking officials in the Northern Zhou, Sui and Tang dynasties, and his grandfather was also an important member of the Qin Palace, and he was once crowned the Duke of Lu (from this level, he was once sealed on the same ground with Cheng Biting Jin). The other is Wang, whose grandfather was the general of the prison gate, and was the Duke of Shu. Anyway, just from the point of view of the family, the mother of the martial queen is also very kind to the two princesses.

Of course, the two princesses are indeed older young people, but considering that two of the three wives were older than him when Li Xian married his wife, although this issue is worth criticizing, it can't be pointed at Empress Wu and say too much.

And this is the first two princesses married out since Emperor Li ascended the throne, and on the day when the two families of the power and kings made their decision, there were not a few people watching along the road, and many people were talking about the number of marriages. And when a series of procedures were completed, the queen led the wife to marry in person, not only did it not less, but more dowry made many people praise the queen's generosity in unison.

In fact, for the generosity of being shown to others, Empress Wu has always been unsparing. In the past, when the abolished prince Zhong was reported for the first time for rebellion, she also pleaded for mercy. This is true for the prince, for the princess who does not have the slightest power. She couldn't be even more embarrassed. Of course, for Shangjin's death followed by the sudden vomiting of blood, she is as greasy as she wants.

The scene of the two sisters getting married, Li Xian did not go to join in the fun for the first time. First, the relationship between each other is not good, and there is no need for him to be coy; The second is that Li Ji promised to attend with Cheng Yanjin in the past, but he didn't wait for this day. Thinking of this, he was not in the mood to join in the fun at all.

The seven-day resignation for Li Jiju's mourning has ended, although it is a bit unorthodox to do a happy event immediately after the royal family, but this is something that has been prepared for a long time, so not only the Li family can understand. The people of the entire Chang'an City can also understand. However, in the background of the noisy gongs and drums outside, Li Xian accompanied Li Jingye to sit in Li Ji's mourning hall. Two people who are not brothers are more like brothers sit silently next to each other.

"I always thought that my grandfather would be able to turn evil into good fortune this time."

Li Jingye glanced at the dazzling spirit card, and suddenly opened the conversation box and gushed: "Grandfather was repeatedly robbed when he was in the Tang Dynasty in the past, so he always thought that it was a blessing from God to live a long life, but he would never take medicine if he was sick. I was worried before, but then I saw that it was cold or hot and humid. He survived unharmed, and thought he was really incomprehensible. Now it seems. People always have to die of old age, and the wise and martial grandfather is no exception. He supported the entire Li family with only one person, and now he has replaced me...... Rokuro, do you think I can really do it? ”

"What a frustrating thing!" Li Xian took a sip angrily, and immediately remembered Li Ji's confessions before he died. Suddenly, I felt panicked. If this was only known to him, it would be forgotten, but Li Ji also took care of Li Bi. That person seems to be an honest man who doesn't talk nonsense, but what if he gets drunk or talks in his sleep? Think about it. Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he suddenly slammed his fist on the ground, telling Li Ji's instructions that day as they were.

So, he saw Li Jingye's face turn from white to blue, from green to red, and finally as if he was drunk. However, with his dedicated understanding of Li, he knew that this kid must not be angry and disappointed, but brewing some other emotions.

"Haha...... Hahahaha! ”

Li Jingye suddenly laughed wildly, the voice almost overturned the entire mourning hall, and finally even laughed out of tears. It wasn't until he saw a servant outside probing his brain that he volatilized away the nosy ones, and a self-deprecating expression suddenly appeared on his face.

"In terms of shrewdness, I am inferior to you; In terms of talent in martial arts, I am not as good as Xiao Xue; In terms of strength, I am not as good as Bohu. So I always thought that my grandfather just reluctantly taught me because I was the eldest grandson, and I didn't expect him to have such a high opinion of me! Hey, who doesn't want to be in the prime minister, but he is wrong about one thing, although I am a little ambitious, but I am greedy for comfort and pleasure, and I will never pull the whole family into the funeral because of a momentary mood! ”

After saying this in one breath, seeing Li Xian staring at him without blinking, Li Jingye couldn't help but roll his eyes: "You revealed your grandfather's warning to me privately, aren't you afraid that he will be unhappy if he knows it in the spirit of heaven?" ”

Li Xian still smiled: "So I told you this in the Master's Earth Spirit Hall, just to let him know that they have been brothers for more than ten years, of course I can trust you!" ”

"I am not afraid of flashing my tongue when I say such a meaty thing, and I am not your woman!"

I don't think so

sarcastically went back, but Li Jingye felt relieved, as if his grandfather's sudden influence gradually disappeared at this moment. The era of the older generation has passed, and he is nothing now, but the future must be the age of these young people.

"Hey, your two sisters are getting married, are you really not going?"

Li Xian shook his head impatiently: "Didn't I tell you, I'm not in the mood!" Anyway, it's all red tape, and it's not when you got married, so I inevitably have to socialize again, so I just take advantage of my illness to hide. ”

Speaking of this, Li Jingye inevitably remembered the news that Li Xian was ill. At that time, he was crying faint because of the sudden death of his grandfather, and when he suddenly heard the news, he almost thought it was someone else's joke, and when he learned that it was true, he almost wanted to rush to the palace. Fortunately, in the end, he still held back, but he didn't expect that Li Xian just lay on the sickbed for a day and two nights, and still appeared in front of him vigorously. Sure enough, a sentence was answered, good people do not live long, and disasters will last for thousands of years.

"Having said that, Your Majesty is actually going to abdicate, is this matter really ironclad?"

"Don't ask me, I still don't have a clue about this!"

Regarding the request that his mother asked his father to agree to that day, Li Xian still has no clue. He absolutely didn't believe that Empress Wu would say abdication to Li Zhi openly, but if it weren't for that, how could his emperor, Lao Tzu, bring up this matter as soon as he went to court without warning? The most bizarre thing is that Li Hong is almost invisible now, is he undergoing emergency training before the emperor takes up his post?

Thinking of this, he could only complain casually: "No matter what, there are tall people when the sky falls!" ”

For the rest of the day, the two sat opposite each other in the mourning hall and never said anything to each other. Although it was broad daylight, there were also oil lamps lit in the mourning hall, and the white flags all over the room and the coffin behind the spirit card added a heaviness to the solemnity. The air was filled with a strong smell of sesame oil, and the sound of Taoist priests chanting outside the house was endless.

In these years, Taoism was far more prosperous than Buddhism, not to mention that the royal family worshipped Lao Tzu as an ancestor, so whenever there was a funeral at home, most of the people invited were Taoist priests rather than monks. And although the two people sitting opposite each other in this mourning hall do not believe in gods and Buddhas, they will not have any objections to this kind of thing - it is just a tribute to the deceased, nothing more.

Time passed little by little, Li Xian calculated the time for the two princesses over there to get married, and they had probably entered the door of the future concubine's house, and couldn't help but sneer lightly. Coincidentally, the two horses lived in the same house, and they were both first-class gateheads—think of the rumors he had heard, what two princesses were over forty years old before they got married, what were just ordinary sergeants, what was a simple ceremony, and really underestimated his queen mother!

Who is the Empress Wu? Even if there is hatred, it will not be put on the face unless it is absolutely necessary, but will make the scene sufficient, and then slowly clean it up with a soft knife. This princess marries a soldier, do you want the royal face anymore?

Therefore, the issue of face is always an insurmountable barrier. The only thing to be thankful for is that this matter was really not brought up by Li Hong, and it did not affect the relationship between mother and son.

"Oh no, no!"

Li Xian, who was counting the time with his fingers, suddenly heard such a voice, and immediately raised his head suddenly. I saw a Li family general outside rushing in sweating, and before he could stand firmly, he shouted: "Just after the descent of the two princesses, the Yulin Army suddenly appeared and arrested the three guests!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Li Xian and Li Jingye stood up at the same time, and quickly exchanged glances with each other. Li Xian and Cheng Wuting had a lot of opportunities to deal with each other, but only on official business, and the only time they really met face-to-face was when people came to his house to search. Because of this relationship, he has a good impression of this person. However, such a smart man would actually run to the house of two future colts on a happy day to arrest people?

Isn't this a sweep of the faces of the two families! Moreover, this is also a relative of the emperor!

Seeing that Li Xian was pondering there, Li Jingye hurriedly asked, "Tell me quickly, what's going on?" Who was caught? ”

"The specific situation is not clear, but I only know that it was the Duke of Shangluo County, the Duke of Fufeng County, and a Jiaku Lingshi of the Ministry of War."

Li Xian, the first two county magistrates, didn't care, but the person in the back made Li Xian a little alert. The little Ling Shi is not so much an official as a small official, and it is a little strange for such a person to appear among the guests. In addition, Cheng Wuting's dispatch is definitely not self-proclaimed, and Di Renjie may be making trouble behind it.

He recommended this person to investigate the last case, but now it has been nearly a month and there is still no movement, and some people even wonder if Di Renjie is in vain. I can't imagine that if you don't make a sound, it will be a blockbuster, and this one is a big deal as soon as he makes a move!
