Soon after Du Song returned to Kyoto, he handed over a post to visit the Auxiliary Government Palace, one is to thank the prince for his recommendation back then, and the other is to thank the princess and Her Royal Highness the princess for their years of maintenance and care for his sister, and the auxiliary prince originally didn't take it to heart, even if he learned that this kid gave Xiaoxiao a particularly rare jade claw on the top Hai Dongqing, which caused Xiaoxiao to be happy, he just smiled indifferently.

The three brothers in the family are also curious about Du Song's field experience, and often invite them to chat, so that Du Song has become a frequent visitor to the palace, Xiaoxiao has not been subject to many etiquette rules since he was a child, and whenever he heard that Du Song came to the door, he often had a lot of fun, and gradually put Yong Yihou on his lips, which made the auxiliary king wary.

The daughter has already reached the end of the day, and it is time to talk about marriage, but the prince is unconscious, even if the princess occasionally mentions it, he decisively obstructs it.

is such a precious girl, how can she be willing to marry early, and the auxiliary king insists on waiting until Xiaoxiao is eighteen years old before considering choosing a son-in-law.

Yijing couldn't cry or laugh, and "cruelly" reminded the auxiliary king who was stubborn on this incident: "The female is not left."

The prince rarely blackened his face in front of his beloved wife, and the model couple actually broke up several times because of this matter.

Regarding Xiaoxiao's marriage, the princess has actually been entangled for many years, and the first choice in her mind is of course the eldest son of her eldest brother Su Xun, who knows the roots, has impeccable talents, and has a childhood friendship with Xiaoxiao, but she also understands that in fact, the marriage with the Weiguo Mansion is bound to be delicate, but she is still very lucky, and the saint should not be born because of Su and Chu's remarriage, how can Xiaoxiao and the prince's father and daughter are not very happy.

Father: "Even if Da Lang is good, his temperament is a little stereotyped and not free and graceful enough." ”

When the daughter: "My cousin also stole and ate my parrot, even if the culprit is the second brother, he is also the murderer." ”

Her Royal Highness the princess of troubles when she was a child is still haunted.

The father is more reasonable: "Da Lang is the grandson of the long house, and he will be the one who will attack the lord in the future, if Xiao Xiao marries, will she have to become a clan wife, although she has this ability, I really don't want our daughter to work hard for the housework, and besides, Da Lang has the responsibility of inheriting the heir, can the princess bear to let Xiao Xiao suffer more from childbirth?" Otherwise, is the princess willing to watch her daughter teach the concubine for that kid in the future, and she will intrigue with the concubine? ”

The princess had no choice but to dispel this thought.

The first condition for the auxiliary king to choose a son-in-law is that he must not tolerate a group of wives and concubines in the future, which is not a harsh condition for other families, who makes Princess Changle gold and jade, but there is only the Weiguo Mansion, the two families are in-laws, and the eldest grandson of the family inherits a lot of responsibility, the heirs of the Weiguo Mansion are far from being able to flourish, and the Chu Wangfu insists on not allowing the son-in-law to take concubines, so Xiaoxiao is bound to be busy with "spreading the branches". The auxiliary king is still afraid of the danger of the princess's three sons back then, and when he thinks that Xiaoxiao will go through this catastrophe in the next three or two years, his face is so black that his face is seeping.

As for the rest of the young talents that the princess is optimistic about, the auxiliary king can easily pick out a basket of shortcomings, either disgusted with the lack of ejaculation of others, or dissatisfied with the slight loss of literary talent, there is that talented person and is judged to be amorous, in short, there is no perfect one, and the auxiliary king does not even give the opportunity to compare.

Of course, about the "Zhang Sanle" who wanted to eat swan meat, the Chu Wangfu was very disdainful from top to bottom, when he knew that this person dared to take Xiaoxiao as a "profit" in front of the saint, the always steady Lang Yu Jun was arbitrary, and made a special trip to Rehe to challenge in person, and beat the person to a falling flower, nose and blue face swollen, as for Wei Dalang, people were already paralyzed, and the Chu Wangfu was lazy and fell into the well again, but it was not long before Lord Wei made a joke, drinking flowers and wine on Yihong Street for fun, and was stripped naked and thrown out of the brothelAt that time, Wei was drunk and drunk, lying naked on Yihong Street and snoring like thunder, the little maid disappeared with one of them, and I don't know where he was tied up, so that thousands of onlookers watched, and then Mrs. Wei got the news, and she was so angry that someone carried him back to the house, which caused a sensation in Kyoto, and Lord Wei didn't dare to go out for half a month - this is Kun Ershao's handwriting, he didn't even come forward in person, only provoked by the usual flattering and flattering gentlemen, and let Lord Wei "confidant" 's other concubine is famously cowardly, and he is jealous, and he teaches a hard lesson to his rival who dares to dig into his corner.

It is not uncommon for nobles to be jealous of each other, and no one is on the line, but Lord Wei is so embarrassed, but those idle men can mock them for a while after dinner.

To get back to the point, let's go back to the sudden seriousness of the auxiliary king, because Du Song did not hesitate to seriously injure Wei Da in front of the emperor in order to give Xiaoxiao a bad breath, which is also a very happy thing, but it made the father deeply feel the threat, sure enough, Xiaoxiao actually specially found a coquettish for that kid, and knocked on the side to inquire about the accurate criteria for the auxiliary king's choice of son-in-law. The prince felt that his position in the heart of his baby daughter had been seriously provoked, so he was not jealous and uneasy.

However, knowing the daughter Mo Ruomu, Yijing of course also understood Xiaoxiao's thoughts, and she was very relieved to be a mother.

So the princess turned a blind eye to the reluctance of the prince, but when she had idleness, she "added lustre" to Du Song: "Du Dalang's character is not picky, otherwise the prince would not have recommended him to join the vanguard army and entrusted him with a military mission, as for his notoriety, only those vulgar and stupid people will never forget, the prince is wise and open-minded, how can he not know that Du Dalang is innocent and slandered." ”

The prince snorted coldly, but he couldn't refute it.

"Besides, courage and courage are obvious to all, his parents are unkind, but Du Song did not give up on himself with resentment because of this, and he did not even use selfishness for the title, when he was young, he invited himself to join the army, and he also used his life and death to raise his eyebrows, and proved that the rumors were untrue with practical actions, which is easy to say, but not ordinary people dare to act."

The prince drank tea by himself, and his expression was still solemn.

"Although it is said that Feng Yongyi is due to the design, if Du Song does not fight on the battlefield, how can Xi Zhi trust and adopt his strategy, and he can be reused in just a few years, but it is not because of the support of the prince behind his back, it is indeed Du Song's own ability."

This makes even more difficult to refute.

The princess smiled, and poured the dry tea cup for the prince again: "These are okay, the key is that I look at it coldly, what is rare is his heart for Xiaoxiao, and now it seems to others that the saint reuses trust in the Wei family, so Wei Dalang and Zhang Sanlang are often edicted to enter the palace, and they are close to each other, and the two of them are disrespectful to Xiaoxiao, Du Song dares to gamble on life and death, obviously ignoring the future glory, he was born and died to get the title, if it is not from the heart, how can he act so impulsively." ”

This time the Northern Plains Kingdom was destroyed, Du Song's merits are obvious, it turns out that he is indeed wise and resourceful, and the saint "shows" that he is afraid of the auxiliary king, but if Du Song has the heart to weigh the pros and cons, he will not act so decisively, but look at him is punished and driven away, he is still generous, and he has not even come to the palace to ask for credit, just this matter, so that the princess has a good impression of Yongyi.

At present, the turmoil is surging, those who see the wind and the rudder are all silently watching, cautiously alienating the Chu Palace, to say that the auxiliary king has been prominent for many years, this time is in a difficult situation, it is also an obvious situation, when the glory and wealth of those sycophants and princesses should not think so, only willing to share hardships and hardships should be cherished.

Regarding all of the above, the auxiliary political king actually knows that it is not that he looks down on Du Song, but he really regards Xiaoxiao as a pearl in his hand, thinking that no man in the world is worthy of his own baby.

So he provoked: "Princess, don't forget that Du Song is also the eldest son in the family, and there are a pair of unkind parents above." ”

The princess held her forehead: "What, the prince is still afraid that Xiaoxiao will be aggrieved, with her temperament, is it possible that she will not be bullied by her in-laws?" Besides, the means and skills of Yong and Yi Wait, can't protect his wife and children? ”

"I think he is quite stupid and filial, so Wei won't talk about it, Linzi Hou is his father in the end." The prince is obviously running out of words this time.

Yijing can't cry or laugh, Linzihou is a well-known nest of incompetence and fear of the strong, her daughter is a princess of a country, the daughter of the prince, and foreign relatives and friends are all prominent, even if you give Linzihou and his wife a hundred guts, they dare not hold up the shelf of their in-laws to be a blessing, not to mention that Du Song is not a fool at all, but he is lazy and cares about a woman in the Wei family, and he does not put the empty title in his eyes, a good man, he should work hard and strive for self-improvement, if he only wants to be blessed by the family and fall into conspiracy, how can the princess be willing to let her baby daughter marry.

"This matter was agreed too early, I still have to carefully consider it, Du Song is the eldest son in the end, and now he also has a knighthood, if he doesn't want to have only one wife, or has the idea of flourishing branches and leaves, even if he has the courage and wisdom, I don't want Xiaoxiao to be aggrieved."

Well, the prince is finally willing to take the test, and Yijing doesn't want to be pressed.

And no matter what the Son of Heaven wants, how to stay depressed in Rehe, the matter of sending troops to the Western Court is still under the resolution of the Prince and the Cabinet, with the permission of the Queen Mother and the official order, Xi Zhi once again went out as the leading general, Du Song also accompanied him as a deputy general, and the Prince of Xiliang led an army of 100,000 to launch a general attack on the Western Court, with the help of Xi Zhi's vanguard army, the two countries broke through the Western Court in one fell swoop.

Since the division of the Ten Kingdoms, the barbarian tribes of the Northern Plains, which had become rapidly strong and had seriously threatened the Chinese domain, were completely wiped out, and many of their alliances were subjugated, and a small number of them were exiled to the Yuan, and it was difficult to become a powerful man.

And the war for more than ten years has finally completely subsided, and when the whole world celebrates and celebrates with everyone, the royal family will of course feast the ministers and ministers to congratulate this great victory.

Xi Zhi, the newly promoted Jingbei Gong, was entrusted to stay in Kyoto as the commander of the forbidden army, and he invited himself to go to naturalization again to lead the garrison and the governance of the new domain.

These two appointments that seemed to be taken for granted made the Wei party grit their teeth, and a group of Xiao Xiaodu believed that Xi and Du were loyal to the auxiliary king, so they drew up a conspiracy, intending to use these two to make a knife and point the sword at the auxiliary king, trying to instigate the Son of Heaven to make a painful determination to eradicate the jealousy, and when the monarchy was stable, they would be able to fall into power for a lifetime.

The National Day banquet is the time of conspiracy.

On the one hand, she also felt that the forces of all parties were about to move, and the undercurrent seemed to be difficult to press, maybe the evil waves would be monstrous in a blink of an eye, on the other hand, not only did the Queen Mother repeatedly ask about her marriage, and tried her best to match her and Xue Sanlang's good deeds, that is, her mother, Mrs. Wei, who often wiped tears from her eyes during this period of persuasion: "You kid, it really broke my heart, and I was too lazy to mention the past, but now, I can't be willful anymore, do you really want to end up in the palace?" Although Xue Sanlang is not very good, he is not as noble as the old clan, but fortunately, he is still a poet and book, and you can't ......pick and choose at this age."

Such words, Wei Zhao is really annoyed, the more things should be decided, but the more unwilling he feels.

I heard that Xi Zhi will be naturalized, and he will be responsible for the garrison and the laws and regulations of the city under his jurisdiction, Wei Zhao really wants to go with him, and he can see with his own eyes how those laws and regulations on the policy are promoted and implemented in the new domain.

What she is looking forward to more is the naturalization of that vast realm, the person who is willing to satisfy her "ambition" instead of trapping her in the back house.

But the young man who was puzzled back then was no longer a palace guard, and as a foreign minister, it was difficult for her to have a long talk with him as she did then.

Perhaps, he had forgotten the parting words, and she, how to speak.

If he already has a heart, how will she deal with herself?

At that time, he was just expressing expectations, not promises.

With such a mood, Wei Shangyi was inevitably uneasy at the palace banquet.

She didn't know that Jingbei Gong, who had just made a contribution to Jinfeng and became an upstart, was also a little absent-minded when he was staggering.

After a long time, I don't know if the rare confidante and the different woman still remember him, those words of encouragement are still in her ears, she knows that if it weren't for those words back then, maybe he would have sunk into grief and indignation, and never think about making contributions to the war.

I don't know if that wise and open-minded woman is willing to abandon this splendid and prosperous capital, follow him to the vast territory of the wind and sand, and regain the former prosperity and defense.

Xi Zhi suddenly felt that the wine was in his throat, and the taste was as light as water.
