There are still a few days before the Shangyuan Festival, Li Wennan sent the girl to Li Xia and Li Wenmei to announce that first, she will study hard for a few days, and second, she has not thought about going to see the lights during the Shangyuan Festival, and there is a chance that she will not go.

Li Xia smiled and waved her hand to signal that she knew, and then sent someone to tell Li Wenmei that on the day of the Shangyuan Festival, she was going to accompany Mrs. Ruan to watch the lamp and talk, and asked Li Wenmei to take care of herself, Li Wenmei smiled and sent Li Wennan's girl away, and then got Li Xia's message, and stood still for a long time, this is the first Shangyuan Festival after her marriage.

Shangyuan Festival, just after the afternoon, Li Wennan and Li Wenmei were surrounded by their mother-in-law and girls, and went out separately, Mrs. Yan went to Yan Shangshu's lamp shed as usual, and gossiped with her sister-in-law for a long time, Mrs. Xu accompanied Mrs. Huo to Tang Shangshu's lamp shed, Grandma Zhao took the child to her mother's lamp shed to play, and Li Wenli's family went to go shopping by themselves.

Brother Heng can't go out when he's young, Tang Jiarui takes care of the children at home, Li Wenshan accompanies his daughter-in-law at home, Li Wensong also accompanies Grandma Yao Si who can't go out well, and Li Wenlin goes out to have fun by himself.

Master Li, together with Li Wenlan, Guo Sheng and Xu Huan, went to Daxiangguo Temple to read poems and texts to see the excitement.

Li Xia left the latest, and it was getting dark, so he got in the car and went out, and slowly walked to Lu Yi's lantern shed not far from Xuande Tower.

This year, the emperor talked about filial piety again, and King Qin will flatter him in the palace until early tomorrow morning.

This year, she is not going to wander anywhere, talk to Ruan Shi and look at the lights, and take a scene, so she went back to rest, as soon as the Shangyuan Festival passes, the first month will be soon, out of the first month, this year, it is not very peaceful......

Mrs. Ruan stood at the top of the stairs, watched Li Xia come up, smiled and bent her knees to salute, Li Xia hurriedly walked a few steps up, and hurriedly returned the salute, "Don't dare to be." ”

"Why don't you dare to be?" Mrs. Ruan said with a smile while letting Li Xia in: "On the national etiquette, on the family etiquette is even more deserved." ”

Li Xia also laughed, all thanks to Ruan Seventeen.

"I saw Mrs. Tang a few days ago, she and I still joked about this, if you start with Li Wuye, Mrs. Tang and your fifth sister-in-law are sisters, but if you start from the prince's side, you will be a generation higher than Mrs. Tang, and if you talk about it more, it will be all messed up." Mrs. Ruan asked Li Xia to sit down, took a cup of tea and handed it to her, and kept laughing and laughing.

"Then we'll just talk about our own, thank you sister, sister sit." Li Xia took the tea and thanked him.

Mrs. Ruan laughed out loud and sat next to Li Xia, "There is also a joke, Uncle Seventeen has been looking for the general several times in the past few days, saying that he always feels that this kid has to follow him, he is so worried, the general persuaded him: This is how he grew up, no matter how the child is tao, he can't hide it from him, and he takes advantage of being a father. ”

Li Xia thought about it for a while, and laughed, "Why is the general so pushy, so persuasive, your seventeenth uncle is even more worried." ”

"But no, Uncle Seventeen shouted at the time, saying that I, Weng Weng, have never been able to control him." Mrs. Ruan couldn't stop laughing, "People say that raising a child is a good way to repay his mother's kindness, Uncle Seventeen is much smarter than others, and the child has not been born yet, so he knows that it is not easy to be a father and mother." ”

Li Xia and Mrs. Ruan laughed for a few words, and the sound of Chengying's report came from the staircase, and the two of them stopped laughing together, and looked at each other.

Chengying lifted the curtain and came in, and lowered his hand to report: "Girl, madam, the master has just dispersed from the palace." ”

Li Xia's eyes sank, why did he disperse so early?

"The general is there too?" Mrs. Ruan hurriedly asked, and Chengying replied yes.

"I'll take a look." Li Xia stood up, took the cloak from Duan Yan's hand and put it on, signaled Mrs. Ruan not to send it, and went down the stairs, and saw King Qin wearing a sable cloak with a silk python pattern, standing in the shadows, watching her come down from the lamp shed, with a smile on her face. Lu Yi stood behind King Qin and bowed slightly.

"Leave early today, I'll accompany you to see the lights." Watching Li Xia come down, King Qin took a few steps forward, lowered his head and smiled.

Li Xia stretched out his hand and pulled down the python-patterned sable cloak on his body, "Your big dress is too conspicuous, there are too many people on the street, there are people everywhere, let's take a look in the light shed, here, or your lamp shed." ”

"Here, let's do that, it's too close." King Qin watched Li Xia grasp the two hands of his cloak, and his mood relaxed.

Without waiting for King Qin's orders, Lu Yi signaled to Chengying, and a few small servants hurriedly went up, re-opened the curtains, arranged the lanterns, and downstairs, Chengying was busy leading people to arm.

Li Xia was in front, King Qin followed closely behind, and went up to the lantern shed again, Madame Ruan bowed her knees, retreated to stand in a corner of the lantern shed, and waited for Lu Yi to come up.

"What's wrong? Why so early? Li Xia watched King Qin go to the cloak and sit down, and he sat down with him, handed him a cup of tea, and asked in a low voice.

"It's not a big deal." King Qin raised the cup, but did not drink the tea, put the cup on the table, his face was slightly gloomy, "Chang Jiagui, the supervisor of Dushui Supervisor, took his wife and children into the palace to ask the emperor for peace." ”

After a pause, King Qin looked at Li Xia and was about to explain, Li Xia met his gaze and smiled: "I know that Chang Jiagui's mother is the emperor's grandmother, and Chang Jiagui, the capital water supervisor, is from his father Chang Shifu. ”

"Well," King Qin looked at Li Xia, laughed with her, paused for a moment, and then continued: "The emperor is a nostalgic person, and he has a very good relationship with this grandmother, although the grandmother has passed away, the emperor treats this grandmother brother as before, every year on the Yuan Festival, Chang Jiagui has to take his family, together with the clan, into the palace to ask the emperor for peace." ”

Li Xia hummed in a low voice, she knew this rule, this Chang family was expensive, and she also knew that in the first month of her reign, she reopened the old case and copied the Chang family.

"Chang Jiagui cried to the emperor, saying that his livelihood was difficult, and he wanted to ask his third son Chang Dingyuan for a job as a steward of the Huangzhuang, saying that it was not limited to how many ranks, as long as he could be the steward of the Huangzhuang, no matter how many he was, their family would not be short of silver." King Qin frowned and said in a low voice.

Chang Jiagui's complaint was strange, and he was faintly uneasy in his heart, as if something big was going to happen.

Li Xia's eyebrows moved slightly, and he laughed, "This means that the stewards of the Imperial Village are too greedy?" This situation, how dare he Chang Jiagui just tell it like this? What has become of his river work? ”

"I asked Ah Feng to inquire. The emperor was very angry. King Qin's mood was a little more relaxed, and she could understand his words.

"The emperor is angry, it's definitely not because the stewards of the imperial village are corrupt or something, let me guess," Li Xia smiled, "Because the Chang family has a hard time, it's so difficult that they cry to him, right?" ”

"I don't know, the emperor is angry, who can blame the Chang family for their hardships? Besides, the emperor is still sage, and he is not unexpected. King Qin smiled.

"It's your fault," Li Xia tilted his head sideways at King Qin, "maybe there's also the crown prince." ”

King Qin's smile turned into a wry smile, "You look at people...... It's weird, it's weird, he's always been like this, I'm used to it, it's just that the river work is okay, there are not many implications, the matter of Huangzhuang really wants to be revealed, I'm afraid that it is too involved, wait for Ah Feng to inquire about the source. ”

"Well, then let's not talk about this, let's talk about a joke, my uncle said, from the lunar month to the first month, the large and small inns in the capital, the temples and workshops, etc., are all full, and they are all scholars who came to wait for Enke, and they all feel that the emperor must open Enke this year." Li Xia immediately changed the subject.

King Qin smiled helplessly, "When the emperor ascended the throne, he didn't open Enke, and this year's two great victories, the reprimand has not been broken, and the reward has been reduced again and again, how can there be any Enke?" Pity these gentlemen. ”

"What do they have to be pitied? If you want to take advantage, you have to be prepared to suffer a loss, but if you don't open Enke, there are a lot of these scholars, and this disappointment ......" Li Xia dragged out his voice and laughed a few times, "Don't look at me, I'm just talking about it, don't talk about it, after the New Year, I'm going to learn to do business with my grandmother, don't you know, my grandmother earned a lot of silver in one winter......"

Li Xia changed the topic again, and muttered to King Qin about his grandmother's talk about making money in business, and King Qin laughed while listening.

Listening to her is one of the most interesting things in the world.
