Li Xiaoqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "It's my subordinate, naturally it's also your Liangwangfu's subordinate, what's the difference?" Su Zicheng's eyebrows fluttered when he listened: "That's it, what's the difference between you and me?" In the future, although you can relax, such a small matter as today, when the street was whipped and people were sent to the government, you were too careful, such a trivial matter, but it is enough to pull back a whip. Li Xiaoqi looked at Su Zicheng, only smiled but didn't respond to his words.

"There is another thing, I mean, let An Zaihai enter the Ministry of Officials to be a hall official first, let An Zaihai come in to see yesterday, he insisted on going to Liangdi to be a state and county official, saying that this is also what you mean, you see, Yu Yuanshan is on Huainan Road, and you plan to put Tang Gongsun in Lukang to repair the wharf, but not in Lugang, his pedantic temper can't do anything, Qian Qian is an honest and capable official, good at fine affairs, but his temperament is a little harsh and eccentric, the best side of the pastoral side, if it is placed in the center, I have to go to the Yushitai, it's a pity, I discussed it with my eldest brother, I plan to put him in Shangzhou first to be a governor, and after the expiration of his term, he will be transferred to Jingxi as a political envoy, and then start a war with Wu Di and South Vietnam. An Zaihai is shrewd, sleek and flexible, the most suitable place in the sixth, Xiaoyi, all the people under your door should not be put in the place, the place and the center should take care of each other to communicate with the best. ”

Li Xiaoqi looked up at Su Zicheng, and his heart was sour and soft by what he said, and he asked in a low voice for a while: "What are you planning to do for me?" ”

"If I don't plan for you, who else do I plan for? You are different from your sister-in-law, behind your sister-in-law there is the old prime minister of Wei, there is the entire Wei family, there are many talents in the Wei clan, your eldest brother and a few of them are honest people, Wei Shuisheng is not bad, but unfortunately his surname is Wei, Yu Yuanshan I have let people check, except for An Zaihai, they are all scholars from the imperial examination, the family is extremely weak, although An Zaihai is extremely rich, he can only get out of business since his grandfather, and he can barely be able to take the imperial examination in his generation, there are not many men in his generation, except for him, there is no one who can become a talent, these people are attached to you, The family behind can naturally only be attached to you, and in the future, these can be the help of the Li family, so you have to use some heart and settle it well. Su Zicheng raised his hand and gently curled a strand of Li Xiaoyi's loose hair and smiled.

Li Xiaoqi moved to Su Zicheng's side, raised his head and said with a smile: "There is a water family here in Kaiping Mansion, isn't it the same whether you can let it go to the sea or not?" It's better to let him go to the place to do something well, besides, it is also a taboo for the place to collude with the center. Su Zicheng was stunned when he heard this, and laughed: "Why do you think so much? How can the eldest brother be taboo against us? ”

"It's not that I'm afraid that your eldest brother will be taboo, it's not like this, think about it, if we are like this, other people's families will follow suit, and they won't mess up? Your eldest brother is not taboo, we have to think about him and let him do well. Li Xiaoqi turned around and smiled, Su Zicheng nodded approvingly: "This is what you think about, but this reason, okay, then it's up to you, Mr. Liang came back from Nanyue around the Spring Festival, and let him join the Ministry as a left waiter." ”

Li Xiaoqi shook his head while laughing, and Su Zicheng hurriedly defended: "Mr. Liang has a long strategy and a short practice, and it is not suitable to do it, besides, the eldest brother also admires him very much, saying that he is thoughtful and prudent, and I use it because of my talent." ”

"You naturally use it everywhere because of people, Begonia boiled lotus seed tea today, can you taste it?" Li Xiaoqi smiled and diverted the conversation, Su Zicheng nodded hurriedly, Li Xiaoqi raised his voice and ordered Begonia to send lotus seed tea in, Su Zicheng ate lotus seed tea, and talked to Li Xiaoqi for a while, the night was dark outside, and he was urged back by Li Xiaoyi.

The emperor's body is getting worse day by day, the day when Su Zicheng and Li Xiaoqi got married was hurriedly set on the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, and the etiquette that originally took five months to complete was hurriedly concentrated in less than two months.

Busy into the wax moon, Kaiping Mansion is already cold, Mama Zhang put on a thick cloak into the hanging flower door, in front of the thick cotton curtain in the main house handed the hand stove to the little girl who followed, straightened the clothes, raised the voice, the curtain was lifted from the inside, a warmth came to the face, Mama Zhang hurriedly entered the house, went to the cloak, saw that Li Xiaoqi was only wearing a thin silk jacket, crooked on the kang looking at the thick account book, did not look up, only waved the thin brush in his hand and said: "Mama sit first, drink a cup of tea to drive away the cold, I will be fine for a while." ”

Mama Zhang hurriedly smiled and responded, sat sideways on the edge of the kang lightly, took the tea handed by the light moon, and sipped it quietly and slowly, while looking at Li Xiaoqi who was looking at the account book intently...... It is said that the daughter-in-law stepped on the heel of her mother-in-law, if you talk about it, it is really the girl who is most like the queen of filial piety......

"Alright." Li Xiaoqi closed the account book, Wisteria hurriedly stepped forward to take it away and put it away, Li Xiaoqi cleaned his hands, turned his head to look at Mama Zhang and smiled: "How are you looking?" ”

"It's all good!" Mama Zhang hurriedly gathered her thoughts and smiled: "The weaving workshop is a big place, although it occupies a few places to make furniture, it does not hinder the weavers from working at all, those few places were originally intended to be used for weaving houses, the houses are tall and spacious, there are fire walls, as soon as you enter the house, it is the same as the spring and autumn days, and there is no delay in the work, those carpenters who rushed over from the beams, the craftsmanship is not bad, and the wood is enough, today I passed, and happened to meet the Qian Da steward of the Yuanfeng Hall, who used to look at the fabric, and asked Shuncai if the wood was enough, if it was not enough, They also have a few good huanghuali in their library, enough things, enough people, and it's in time! Things are good, although there is no half-carved flowers, but also the atmosphere is beautiful, the house of Chaohui Courtyard is righteous and generous, but it is just suitable for placing simple and atmospheric furniture......" Mama Zhang said carefully about all kinds of dowries, only said for half an hour.

Li Xiaoqi listened patiently, no matter when she got married, it was all these trivial things and rules, Mama Zhang finished talking about the dowry, and changed the topic with a smile: "I heard that the eldest son of Marquis Guo of Ning'an, the third master of the Guo family is going to marry the girl of the Wei family." ”

"Ning Anhou? Which girl is in the Wei family? Li Xiaoqi was slightly surprised, and Mama Zhang hurriedly smiled: "The marriage is the twelfth girl of the Wei family, the cousin of the princess, who is seventeen years old this year, the same year as Guo Sanye, I heard that the girl has a good temper and personality, and she is also good." Li Xiaoqi frowned slightly, looked at Mama Zhang and asked: "Uncle Guo, second master, fourth master, I have all encountered it, but this third master has not had a chance to see one or two, this Ning Anhou is silent." ”

"What the girl said is very much, the three Hou masters of the Guo family, just count this second child is the most honest, the reputation is good, and he has received one or two messengers in the past, and later said that his body is not good, Ning Anhou's wife Ning is also a proper person, I have seen it a few times before, people are gentle and gentle, and they speak slowly and softly, this third master, his temperament is very similar to his father, and he works hard in the country, that is, he reads very generally, but it doesn't matter, he is the head of the Hou Mansion, and he will attack the lord in the future, and he doesn't have to go to the scientific examination." Mama Zhang replied with a smile, Li Xiaoqi nodded and smiled: "That's right, such a person, if you don't cause trouble, you will become a talent, where did you hear this?" ”

"I have a sister since I was a child who entered the official media industry, and now she is also a high-class official media wearing a hijab and a purple back, and she is dedicated to running these high-class families in the official palace, this family business, two matchmakers, she is one of them, I just came back on the way, just passed by her house, so I went in and talked for a while, but there is another thing, she said a few words, saying that Mrs. Ning Yihou asked her about the fourth master of our family, how the person looks, how his temper is, whether he can read or not, and the girl is separated by a few rooms, all of which are like this." Mama Zhang looked at Li Xiaoyi, lowered her voice and said, Li Xiaoyi's eyes were about to widen: "Mrs. Sui asked this?" ……”

"I told that sister, if there is such a letter again, let someone come and give me a message, this is about our family, she agreed, the Guo family is a big family, in addition to these three Hou Mansions, there are many branches of the distant and near branches, and some are girls of the same age." Mama Zhang looked at Li Xiaoqi and reminded, Li Xiaoqi exhaled heavily, looked at Mama Zhang in annoyance and whispered: "Don't hide it from Mama, I don't want to marry the Guo family, besides, marrying a daughter-in-law is a lifelong thing, and you have to take a fancy to Brother Guizi himself, well, you let people give a word, let the second sister-in-law come over early tomorrow, Brother Guizi is not young, hurry up and find a suitable family affair to settle down, and the marriage will be born in peace." ”

Mama Zhang hurriedly agreed and persuaded: "Girl, don't worry about these words, just ask someone to come to the door to talk, but take the trouble to find a suitable reason to return, but also, set up a family affair for the fourth master as soon as possible, and even these tongues are saved." ”

Early the next morning, Shuilian rushed to the half-acre garden, and Li Xiaoqi did not beat around the bush, and straightforwardly said the gossip that Mama Zhang heard yesterday: "...... I'd rather believe it, don't believe it, and besides, Brother Guizi is not young, you grew up in Kaiping Mansion here, and you know a lot of girls, think about whether there is a suitable one, and quickly settle the family affairs of Brother Guizi. ”

Shuilian nodded hurriedly and said: "I think so too, the girl married into the Liang Wangfu, our family is not as good as before, there is no Guo family to fight this idea, there are also the Zhao family, the Qian family, the Sun family, the Li family, but let's start to find the right family to settle down the best, there are a few, tell the girl to listen, see if the family is suitable, Sister Tong's sister-in-law and second uncle have a concubine of nine girls, I have seen it a few times, the age and appearance are good, but the family is poorer, and there are ......"

Li Xiaoqi listened intently, and kept asking this and that, and the two discussed for more than an hour.
