Li Chengqian furrowed his brows and said: "This Duke of Hubei is a founding veteran who has won the trust of his father, and Yu Chi Baolin is attached to the East Palace. β
"You, you've only seen the skin, do you know why Qin Shubao, the Duke of Yiguo, handed over his military power after the emperor ascended the throne, and since then he has closed his door to the guests and not asked about the government?"
"Isn't it because the Wing Kingdom Gong is not in good health?"
The eldest grandson Wuji sneered: "You also believe this!" That Yiguo Gong is a military general, isn't his body as good as me? He is a smart man, there are a few generals who have achieved high achievements since ancient times, he is advancing by retreating, and Wei Chi Gong, relying on his military exploits, has no one in his eyes, at the last banquet, because of an official seat in front of him, he beat the minister in front of the emperor, and the angry emperor brushed his sleeves and left, which is obviously not to put the emperor in his eyes. β
"I've heard about it, but didn't my father and queen also punish that official and appease Yu Chi Gong? This shows that the father is still very dependent on the old ministers of the Qin Mansion. Li Chengqian said.
"This is the emperor's cleverness, he wants to capture the old man, he has prepared a dog's head, and is waiting for that Wei Chi Gong to stick his head in! You go to see the queen mother now, and say that Yu Chi Baolin is not the right person for a concubine! The eldest grandson Wuji urged.
Li Chengqian didn't think about it, and said with a smile: "Uncle, you're thinking too much, besides, I've already allowed Wei Chi Baolin, wouldn't it make my majesty as a prince ruined?" With that, he left directly, leaving the eldest grandson Wuji with a stunned face.
"You!" The eldest grandson Wuji looked at Li Chengqian's back, his face was pale, and he walked away angrily with his hands behind his back......
The operation of the newspaper is on the right track, Li Su took the list handed over to him by Li Shimin and sent the watch to the door one by one, these court officials all live in the workshop in Chang'an, and it is easy to find, but even so, the watch was stunned for him to send it for ten days before it was all delivered, it is not that Li Su's work efficiency is too poor, it is really that these officials are too enthusiastic, and they have to pull him to eat and drink, especially in Cheng Huailiang's house, Cheng Yanjin, who is over half a hundred years old, grabbed Li Su and did not let go.
"Your Highness, the emperor said that this watch is worth thousands of yuan, which really made His Highness break the bank!" Now that the Cheng family is one of the shareholders of Xinghua Wine, Cheng Biting Jin has let go of his belly, and he no longer has to worry about not having wine to drink, and his tongue began to bend after a few bowls of wine.
Li Su finally understood why Cheng Huailiang's wine was so poor, it turned out that his father had inherited it, "I am also doing a little trivial thing for the sake of the Jiangshan Society of the Tang Dynasty!" Li Su began to speak clichΓ©s.
"Your Highness is humble, now the court is up and down, who doesn't know that His Royal Highness is now deeply appreciated by the emperor, which of these underground pipes and newspapers is not a major event for the country and the people!" Cheng Yanjin put it in the wine glass and suddenly stood up and walked in front of Li Su, "Your Highness, the old minister has no way to teach his son, these brutes are more unproductive than the other, especially Huailiang, this kid, he doesn't do his job all day long, and he still wants to get the favor of Princess Qinghe, it's really a toad who wants to eat swan meat!" β
"Dad, you've drunk too much!" Cheng Huailiang shrunk his neck and said.
"Fart, I'm sober!" Cheng Biting Jin scolded Cheng Huailiang, he immediately became a shrunken turtle again, seeing this, Cheng Biting Jin was even more angry, "Your Highness, look at him, look at his useless appearance, in case one day the old minister dies on the battlefield, what can this kid do?" β
Li Su can see that this Cheng biting gold is to make himself promote Cheng Huailiang and Princess Qinghe, he said: "General Cheng, everyone is his own person, I won't hide some things from you, originally the matter of Huailiang and Qinghe is a sure thing!" β
At this point, Cheng Huailiang's father and son immediately became nervous, "Is something wrong?" β
"Hey! A few days ago, I went to my mother's place to find out the bottom of Huailiang, who would have thought that Yu Chi Gong's son Yu Chi Baolin had also admired Princess Qinghe for a long time, saying that he begged the prince to explain this matter to the queen! β
"What! Yu Chi Baolin, that bastard! Cheng Huailiang stood up and scolded: "That beast is also worthy of Princess Qinghe, Lao Tzu went to fight with him!" β
"Sit down!" Cheng Yanjin scolded, he has been in the officialdom for decades, very slippery, and he understands that Li Su is also unwilling to marry Princess Qinghe to marry Yu Chi Baolin, "Your Highness, Huai Liang, this child has no prospects, but his heart is still good, if he marries His Royal Highness the Princess, he will definitely be obedient to the princess, if His Royal Highness is not at ease, there are still old ministers, if this kid dares to let the princess suffer a little grievance, see if I don't break his legs, and then Yu Chi Baolin, who doesn't know his virtue, His Royal Highness will hand over his sister to him, can you rest assured?" β
"Of course I understand, but if the queen insists on doing so, I can't do anything!" Li Su took a sip of wine depressedly, and swept the expressions of the father and son with his residual vision, Cheng Huailiang was anxious like a monkey at this time, fidgeting, it seems that his words that he has admired Qinghe for a long time are not false, Cheng Yanjin is thoughtful, and finally seemed to make up his mind and said: "Your Royal Highness, Princess Qinghe is also half your own sister, if Huailiang and Qinghe become a couple, you are Huailiang's eldest brother, and we will be a family from now on!" β
The meaning of Cheng Biting Jin's words was already very explicit, and Li Yu smiled: "This matter is not conclusive, Huailiang is my brother, I must help my brother!" "Being able to find a reliable husband for my sister and get the support of the Cheng family is also the best of both worlds, so why not.
Coming out of Cheng Huailiang's house, Li Su held the last watch and was worried, and the last person on the list was Cui Shao, the future father-in-law.
Riding to Cui's mansion, Li Shao understood his intention, and soon, Cui Shao walked out of the house, "Your Highness is coming to the cold house, please forgive Weichen for not being far away!" β
"Lord Cui doesn't have to be formal, I'm here to give this watch to my lord!" As he spoke, he handed the mechanical watch to Cui Shao.
Now almost everyone in the court has put on a watch, get this new thing, many ministers get together to discuss this, there is a watch of the smugness, there is no jealousy of the eyes are red, Cui Shao is the same, but this watch is a gift from the six princes, to whom not to give that is also the freedom of the six princes, but how to say that he is also the father-in-law of the six princes, no is too much to say, so he was so annoyed that he said that he was sick for a few days and could not go to the court, and now the six princes sent the watch over, he was very happy.
Put the watch away, Cui Shao said: "Your Highness, let's go to the mansion to have a sip of tea before leaving!" β
"No need Lady Cui, I have other things to deal with!" Thinking of that dominatrix, Li Su shuddered.
Li Su politely refused, and Cui Shao couldn't say anything, and said, "That old minister respectfully sends His Highness!" β
