Chapter 581: There is a good wife in the family
The official position of the interview and disposal envoy itself only has the power of supervision, and Li Heng will change his name to the observation and disposal envoy after he takes office. Interviews and observations have the same attribute, which is to watch from the sidelines, not to go down in person.
In the letter he wrote to Gao Xianzhi, he firmly stated that he only served as an interview envoy and promised to only watch and not speak.
This made Gao Xianzhi feel embarrassed, he himself had a good relationship with Li Siye, although the two sides were very different in terms of three views and handling styles, and there were some differences, but they would not form a real contradiction. If Li Siye was just an observer and an observer, he would have no reason to object. It's just that there is already a prison sent by the emperor in the army, and another interview envoy follows, which is equivalent to wearing two shackles on himself.
He sent someone to send a letter to Li Siye, and he couldn't guess his motive for participating in the expedition, but he couldn't clearly refuse to refute the other party's face, so he had to carry the saint out. It is said that this expedition to the country of Qianshi is at the behest of the emperor, and as such a big official as the envoy of Longyou, you can't participate in it without the consent of the sage, and if your name is not right, it will not be good.
Li Siye received a letter from Gao Xianzhi and saw that Gao Xianzhi was going to shirk and kick the ball, but he could give the emperor a letter and actively participate in the expedition, even if the emperor did not agree, he himself had nothing to lose, but showed his enthusiasm for the country.
The old year came to an end, and the new year officially began, Dai Wang's Western Regions Commercial Bank only began to make profits in the second half of the year, but it had already reaped a full 800,000 yuan of profits, except for a part of the Beiting Army to expand the source of troops, and to build water conservancy for the Tingzhou area to irrigate farmland, most of which was stored in the secret vault he built in the city of Tingzhou.
This money is the reserve fund that he will use to control the construction of Anxi, and use it to quickly narrow the gap with Fan Yang Pinglu.
Li Siye inspected the army in the vicinity of Tingzhou City every day, inspected the situation of the army's tuntian, and since he had abundant money, he was able to do everything handily, and used the reward mechanism to stimulate the development of agriculture.
He also has more and more leisure time, and more time to go back to the inner courtyard to hug his son, talk with his adopted sons, and play games.
Dao Rou has recently walked closest to Mrs. Twelve Niang, so intimate that she is like a room girl she brought from her mother's house, in modern terms, she is a best friend, he doesn't know how Dao Rou conquered Mrs. Niang's heart, because since she came to the Li family, Twelve Niang has hated this girl with the label of the prince, and now the subtle change in attitude makes him scratch his head.
As a man, he was often away from home, and he didn't know much about many things in the Jiedu Envoy's mansion, and he didn't want to know more. He believes that Twelve Niang can manage the affairs of the family, and his husband is naturally happy to be idle.
In the past few days, he has been waiting for news from Chang'an, or inspecting the military camp every day, and returning to the mansion in the evening. Madame was sitting under the grape trellis in the corridor outside the inner hall, with Daorou sitting beside her, the smiles of the two were delicate and gentle, and they knew each other and talked about everything.
He slowed down his steps and quietly did not make a sound, wanting to get closer to the two of them and listen to what they had to say, but the women's ears were as sensitive as cats and dogs, and they quickly turned their heads.
"Ah Lang," Dao Rou quickly stood up from the stone platform and bowed down to salute him.
Li Siye was recognized, so he simply stopped slow motion, coughed and pretended to pass by, waved his hand and smiled: "What was the lady talking to Daorou about just now, so happy?" ”
Twelve Niang raised her chin and smiled: "This is a matter between our women, you men don't want to know." ”
"In that case, then I'm just passing by, and you continue to talk."
He was just about to turn around and leave, when the lady smiled and beckoned to him: "Ah Lang, you can't stay home all day, so you can talk to me here for a while today." Daorou, you go down first,"
"Whoa."
The shoulders of Daorou's white shirt shrank like a white swan, and she slowly walked forward with her head down, and after taking a few steps, she quietly turned her head, her slender neck bent, and cast a mysterious and shy gaze at them.
Li Siye didn't pay attention to her movements, turned around and sat next to the lady, crossed her legs and touched the upper of the Liuhe boots and said: "Madame want to go back to Chang'an to live, the sage gave me a mansion, which is in Guangfufang, Wannian County, covering an area of more than 100 acres, and it looks quite magnificent." ”
Twelve Niang asked him rhetorically: "Ah Lang will be transferred back to Chang'an in the future and live in Chang'an for a long time?" ”
"That's definitely not going to happen, I guess I'll spend half my life in Moxi."
"Then I won't go, I'll stay here to accompany you, besides, if I stay in this moxi for a long time, I will definitely not be used to living in Chang'an."
Li Siye thought for a while, nodded and said, "That, okay." ”
The husband and wife were silent for a moment, and Twelve Niang suddenly said, "Ah Lang, you seem to be too yourself. ”
He turned his head in surprise: "Why do you ask that?" ”
"A man who stands up to the sky, there shouldn't be only one woman by his side, although we don't have to get a ten-room and eight-room concubine like Gao Xianzhi and Fumeng Lingcha, but at least there must be a woman who warms the bed when I am not around or it is inconvenient."
Li Siye was stunned for a long time and didn't react, and suddenly realized that the person next to him was a qualified good wife and mother in the feudal era, and this world is full of such women, as for the royal Wu Zetian, Shangguan Wan'er, Princess Taiping, Princess Anle and others are outliers, they are the atmosphere of the highest society, and they cannot represent the majority of women in the Tang Dynasty.
"Ha," Li Siye raised his hand and grabbed his head: "I don't think so, and it's good now." ”
"Where's the good?" Twelve Niang looked at her firmly: "Even your subordinates, Tian Zhen, Duan Xiushi, and Zang Xiyan, they all have two or three women, and you are the only one with me, which is not normal." ”
Li Siye turned his head and asked, "Why is this abnormal?" Why didn't anyone tell me that it wasn't normal. ”
Twelve Niang pulled his sleeve and said firmly: "They didn't say that they don't know the inside story yet, everyone thinks that Dao Rou is the concubine you brought with you, only I know that she doesn't get anything by your side at all." ”
This taste gradually changed, Li Siye sounded a little scary, a woman wanted to get something from him, this was a bit of a conspiracy.
He raised his eyebrows and said in a serious tone: "What did she tell you?" Does she have other ideas? Unwilling to settle down? ”
"No, it's not." Twelve Niang hugged her husband's arm with both hands: "She didn't tell me anything, don't intimidate her, I deliberately contacted her for a while, and I think she is stable, dignified, beautiful, and looks good." ”
Si Ye coughed violently a few times, and hurriedly waved his hand: "No, this, she follows me, not just simply, but also represents someone's eyes and someone's political intentions." In the current situation, I don't dare to throw myself into his camp clearly, otherwise it would be easy to get a knife for someone. ”
"Since she can't do it, then find another woman, with your Li Siye's power in Longyou, whether it is a Hu person or a woman from the Han family, she is willing to give her daughter to you as a concubine."
"Yes, that's what the lady said." Li Siye nodded in response: "I'll pay attention to this in the future, and if there is a suitable one, I'll get her for you." ”
Twelve Niang raised her finger and poked his forehead: "What do you do for me, I'm looking for a caring person for you." ”
"Haha, no matter how intimate she is, she must pass the level of being a lady first. As long as I can get past you, I'll be happy. ”
