After several days of dark clouds, a heavy snowfall finally attracted a heavy snowfall, and in the morning, scattered snowflakes began to fall outside, and then the wind and snow outside became heavier and heavier, and the road was soon covered with a thick layer of snow, and the pedestrians who came and went were also in a hurry, bending their necks to prevent the wind and snow from pouring in.

By noon, the air was already covered with goose feathers, and the snow on the ground had reached people's feet, making it difficult to walk, which also made the road more and more scarce.

But at this moment, I suddenly heard the sound of hurried horses' hooves on the road, and then I saw a black cavalry coming from behind facing the wind and snow, the horse's hooves flew and brought up countless snow powder, snowflakes and armor were entangled with each other, and the colors of white and black formed a strong visual contrast, which seemed to make the heaven and earth a little more solemn.

"Your Highness, the snow is too big, and there is still nearly an hour to go before Chang'an, so let's find a place to rest before leaving!" At this time, I saw a bearded general in the cavalry speaking to the young general led by him, if Li Xiu was here, he would definitely be able to recognize at a glance that the young general led by him was Li Shimin, the king of Qin.

I saw Li Shimin look up and look around, in addition to the white snow, he only saw a familiar big river passing by the roadside, so he nodded and said: "It's okay, this is the territory of Xinzhu County, not far in front of my third sister's courtyard, we can go there to avoid the wind and snow for a while, and I can also visit someone by the way!" ”

The Turkic matter is not completely over, but Li Shimin hurried back, mainly because he received news that his eldest brother of the crown prince actually suggested splitting his Tiance Mansion, and his father Li Yuan was also a little moved, Tiance Mansion is Li Shimin's biggest reliance, if it is really split, his strength will be greatly weakened, what will he do to compete with his eldest brother for the crown prince in the future?

"Your Highness is going to visit, but is it Li Xiu who has been praised by you?" I saw that the bearded general also asked curiously again at this time, the matter in the north is not over, so the eldest grandson Wuji was left there by Li Shimin to help him finish up, and Qin Qiong and others were also left to assist the eldest grandson Wuji, so he had the opportunity to come back with Li Shimin.

"Yes, Zhijie, you should also meet this young man, but it's a pity that he has no intention of making a name for himself, otherwise I will recruit him under my command no matter what!" At this time, Li Shimin smiled again and said to the bearded general next to him, this bearded man's surname is Cheng Mingzhijie, that is, the first lucky general in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Cheng Biting Jin.

"Haha~, I heard His Royal Highness praise that Li Xiu like a flower, I really want to see it, but the most important thing now is to fill my stomach, let's go overnight, Lao Cheng I have been gnawing dry food for three days in a row, and I didn't even have dry food last night, and now my stomach is already hungry!" Cheng Yanjin laughed heartily at this time.

"Hehe, don't worry, Li Xiu's wine and food are famous in Chang'an, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the first in Chang'an, but ordinary people really can't eat it, Zhijie, you have been guarding outside for a few years, this time I will borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and ask Li Xiu to prepare a wine banquet to entertain you!" Li Shimin also smiled when he heard this, don't look at Cheng Biting Jin's words and deeds like a reckless martial artist, but in fact, Li Shimin knows that his subordinate is a person who is rough on the outside and fine on the inside, and he is also very good at leading troops in battle, otherwise he would not have been relieved to leave him in the north to lead the troops.

Between the words, Li Shimin's cavalry came to the vicinity of Princess Pingyang's courtyard, Princess Pingyang generally has 2,000 personal soldiers around her, of which 500 female soldiers live in the courtyard, and the remaining 1,500 personal guards are stationed in the nearby military camp, Li Shimin directly let his cavalry go to the military camp to rest, and then sent someone to say to Princess Pingyang, but he went to Li Xiu with Cheng Yanjin.

It's also a little strange to say, if you really want to count it, Li Shimin and Li Xiu don't have a lot of interactions, the two are not even friends, and even Li Xiu has been deliberately alienating him, but I don't know why, Li Shimin trusts Li Xiu very much, and there are some things that he would rather hold in his heart than tell others, but he is willing to tell Li Xiu, maybe because he knows that Li Xiu will never reveal it, let alone participate in the battle between him and his eldest brother Li Jiancheng, so he is so relieved of Li Xiu.

After a while, Li Shimin took Cheng Yanjin to the door of Li Xiu's house, and just wanted to knock on the door, but he heard a noise in the courtyard, as if a lively banquet was being held, which made him stunned, could it be that Li Xiu's house also had guests today?

However, in this kind of weather, since Li Shimin also came to the door, he couldn't just turn around and go back, so in the end he knocked on the door, and after a while, he heard a burst of footsteps inside, and then the door was opened, and a maid poked her head out, and when she saw Li Shimin, she was also startled, and hurriedly opened the door and saluted him: "Slave maid to meet His Royal Highness King Qin!" ”

Li Shimin had been here several times before, so it was not strange that the maid in his house knew him, and Li Shimin also felt that this maid was familiar, so he smiled and said, "Is Li Xiu at home?" This king rushed back to Chang'an from the north, but he didn't expect the snow to be too big, and he happened to pass by here again, so he came to ask for a glass of wine! ”

"Your Royal Highness, my lord is entertaining guests in the living room, and the slave will go to report it!" The maid replied respectfully, her name is Xiaodong, and she is one of the four maids that Yuechan bought at the beginning.

"Wait a minute, what kind of guest is your lord entertaining?" Li Shimin asked very curiously at this time, the person who could be personally entertained by Li Xiu should not be an ordinary person, so he made a special inquirement.

"Your Royal Highness, the guest entertained by my lord is the Wang County Order of Xinzhu County!" Xiao Dong replied again, today's Wang County Order brought a happy event to their family, so Li Xiu personally set up a banquet to entertain them.

"Oh? A small county order can even allow Li Xiu to entertain him personally, there must be something special, this king wants to see it! Li Shimin was also very surprised when he heard this, and he didn't need Xiao Dong to report again, he walked in directly, he wouldn't be polite to Li Xiu.

At that moment, Li Shimin went straight to the living room, and before he went in, he heard bursts of laughter and conversation from inside, but what made him feel strange was that there was a woman's voice mixed with the voice of a woman in the voice inside, and even seemed to have a child talking, which also made him even more puzzled, and he walked in at the moment, and sure enough, he saw Li Xiu sitting on the main seat, and a middle-aged man in official uniform sitting on the right, which should be the Wang County Order, but there was a woman with a little girl sitting opposite the Wang County Order, which looked a little familiar, But for a while, he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

"Your Majesty will meet His Royal Highness King Qin!" Wang Xianling knew Li Shimin, and he was also startled when he saw him come in, so he hurriedly stood up and saluted.

"Hehe, I heard the princess say a few days ago that Her Royal Highness was coming back, but I didn't expect Her Highness to arrive today!" Li Xiu was stunned at first when he saw Li Shimin coming in, and then he also stood up and said with a smile, he was still in a hurry to get away after such a heavy snowfall, and it seemed that he was really forced by Li Jiancheng.

"There's no need to be polite, this king just arrived here, because the wind and snow are too big, and he feels hungry in his stomach, so he specially came to ask Li for a glass of wine, it won't be too abrupt, right?" Li Shimin first said politely to Wang Xianling, and then turned to Li Xiu.

"Since His Royal Highness the King of Qin has something to do with Li Xijiu, then the lower official will retire first!" Without waiting for Li Xiu to speak, Wang Xianling hurriedly said, and after speaking, he saluted Li Shimin, and seemed to be ready to retire.

Li Xiu actually wanted Wang Xianling to stay and have a glass of wine with Li Shimin, after all, people had done him a great favor, if he could help him catch Li Shimin's line, he could also get some care for his future promotion, but he didn't expect Wang Xianling to retire first, which made it difficult for him to keep him anymore, so he asked Li Shimin to sit down first, and he went to see Wang Xianling leave, as for the ninth sister mother and daughter who were originally sitting next to him, they had also retired at this time.

At that moment, Li Xiu sent Wang Xian Ling to the door, and when he saw the goose feather snow outside, he couldn't help but hold on again: "Wang County Ling, thank you for coming today to send this good news to the Ninth Sister Mother and daughter, so that the Ninth Sister Mother and daughter can get out of the sea of suffering, now that the wind and snow are so big, it is better for you to stay here today, and it is not too late to leave tomorrow!" ”

Wang Xianling came today to bring good news to the mother and daughter of the ninth sister, after he interrogated the rotten dog skin, the verdict on the rotten dog skin has also come down, in addition to sentencing him to Fengzhou, the most important one is to sentence him and the ninth sister to dissolve the relationship between husband and wife, because during the interrogation, Wang Xianling found that the rotten dog skin had mortgaged the mother and daughter of the ninth sister to the casino.

According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, anyone who buys and sells his wife can be sentenced to forcibly dissolve the marriage relationship between the husband and wife according to the law.

Li Xiu also knew for the first time that righteousness came from the ancient law, and he didn't expect that the ancient law also stipulated the clause of forced divorce between husband and wife, which was also a surprise, and the ninth sister also felt very relaxed after learning about it, so Li Xiu personally set up a banquet to entertain Wang Xianling, and the ninth sister's mother and daughter naturally accompanied each other as the parties.

Hearing that Li Xiu was retained again, Wang Xianling hurriedly shook his head and said: "Thank you Li Xianjiu for your hospitality, but there are still a lot of affairs to be dealt with in the lower official office, and such a big snow is likely to cause a snow disaster, and the lower officials also need to go back to coordinate the scheduling, so don't be sloppy!" ”

What Wang Xianling said was also reasonable, and Li Xiu couldn't keep it anymore, so he had to watch the other party turn around and leave, but he saw that Wang Xianling had just walked out a few steps, but he suddenly stopped, seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then suddenly turned around and said: "Li Xianjiu, how many words does the lower official have that I don't know whether to say or not?"
