After bidding farewell from Zhou's mansion, the whole day of tossing and staggering on the wine table made Li Yuan feel very tired. It was already night when they returned to the mansion, Li Yuan and Peng Qingying took a photo and fell asleep on the bed. One of the main purposes of coming to Beijing this time has been achieved, and a big stone in Li Yuan's heart has fallen to the ground, although he has slept peacefully.

When I opened my eyes, I saw the warm winter sun gently sprinkled through the long window under the corridor, casting a mottled golden light on the bluestone floor in the house.

It seemed that Li Yuan's stumbling up action alarmed Peng Qingying, and she quickly stood up and turned her head and replied, "Lang Jun, you're awake."

Li Yuan rubbed his somewhat sore temples and said in a dumb voice, "Well, but there is some thirst and bitterness in my mouth, help me make a cup of tea to drink."

Peng Qingying replied in a low voice, poured a cup of tea lightly and walked to the edge of the bed and handed it to Li Yuan, Li Yuan took the teacup in his hand, and inadvertently saw the tears on Peng Qingying's face, his heart was shocked, and he asked in surprise, "Qingying, why are you crying?"

Peng Qingying hurriedly stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears on her face that had not dried up, and said in a low voice, "It's nothing, it's a blinding, not tears."

Li Yuan frowned and put the teacup on the small table at the head of the bed, reached out and pulled Peng Qingying's sleeve, let her sit beside him, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Peng Qingying said in a low voice, "It's okay."

Li Yuan said softly, "It's me who neglected you, right? It's rare to take you to Jinling, but let you stay alone in the house, which is even more boring than Langzhou. That one...... I'm on my way to the office, so I can't take you with me. But things went well yesterday, why not wait for tomorrow? Shall I take you out tomorrow? Don't be anxious, I'm still drunk today."

Peng Qingying shook her head and smiled faintly, "I'm not in a hurry, you don't have to worry about me. Just go out and have a drink with your father-in-law and mother-in-law, and leave me alone at home and sit down."

Li Yuan immediately heard a little sourness, and took her hand slightly dissatisfied and said, "Are you unhappy, I said that I went to do business yesterday, and I couldn't do some things without the support of the Zhou family. Why, even if I just go to see my father-in-law and mother-in-law to talk about my parents' shortcomings, it's a matter of course, it's rare to come here, this is the minimum etiquette, don't you still eat Emperor E's vinegar?"

"Nope!" Peng Qingying immediately turned her head and responded, then her eyes widened, and she sighed and said, "How can I give birth to Sister Ehuang's vinegar? I'm not so rude, and I understand what you said, but I just feel depressed and uncomfortable. Sister Ehuang is your wife, and it is common for men to have three wives and four concubines, and I have never had this idea since I followed you.

I'm just a little envious, and I can't help but think of my grandpa and aunt, but they're no longer there...... And I feel that you don't take my business to heart, so I'm a little sad."

Li Yuan gently touched Peng Qingying's green silk and asked softly, "You are my woman, how can I not take your affairs to heart?"

Peng Qingying said quietly, "What about my eldest brother? Didn't you say bring my eldest brother to me? Why is there no news? Do you know how much I worry about him and how much I miss him? Now my only family members are two brothers."

Li Yuan suddenly realized, it turned out that Peng Qingying blamed herself for this incident, and indeed she promised to reunite their brothers and sisters immediately after she came on the way, and she went to Zhou's mansion to drink and talk about things, I am afraid that it will arouse her thoughts about her family even more, no wonder Peng Qingying is a little depressed.

Li Yuan grabbed Peng Qingying's waist and smiled, "But for this matter, you can blame me. I've already found out the news of your eldest brother, but I just came back drowsy from some wine yesterday and didn't have time to tell you."

Peng Qingying said happily, "Really? Where's Big Brother? Take me to him. Or invite him to the house."

Li Yuan smiled and said, "I won't go out today, and tomorrow I will take you to Yanwang's Mansion to see him, where your eldest brother lives."

Peng Qingying was stunned and said, "Yan Wangfu? What is that place? How did the eldest brother live there? Didn't you say before that he lived in the palace in the capital, which His Majesty had set aside for him?"

Li Yuan sighed and said, "

I also heard my father-in-law mention it yesterday and only then did I know that he lived in the palace of King Yan, saying that your eldest brother came to Beijing to thank him these days, which coincided with the fifth day of the first month of January is the birthday of the first emperor, and the princes and princes were all recalled to Beijing to fast, even the king of Yan, who was previously grounded in Runzhou, is no exception.

And your eldest brother happened to be familiar with King Yan at first sight, and was invited by King Yan to his mansion for a happy gathering, and this stay is said to be half a month. Looks like I'm a little bit of a haunter."

Peng Qingying was surprised, "What the hell is going on? When Yiyang City broke up, didn't you warn your eldest brother not to have too close relationships with anyone after he came to Jinling? How did the eldest brother get together with King Yan?"

Li Yuan frowned and said, "This is also my strange place. There is nothing wrong with courtesy interactions, but after living in the Yanwang Mansion for nearly half a month, this is a bit too much. As the lord of Dongxi, who has just returned to the Tang Dynasty, he has a close personal relationship with the eldest son of the emperor of His Majesty, which is very inappropriate, and it is easy to make people think about it and ask for trouble.

But don't worry, your eldest brother may not want to offend King Yan, so he has been living in it, and if King Yan deliberately shows goodwill, it will be very bad if he doesn't respond. In short, the news of my return to Beijing should be known to almost everyone in the court in the past two days, and I believe that King Yan will definitely invite me to go tomorrow, and your eldest brother will definitely come to us when he gets the news."

In fact, when Peng Qingying hears terms like "prince" or "prince" in her ears now, she will be a little afraid, because she will immediately think of the ruthless and unscrupulous King Zheng, and she can't help but say anxiously: "Can't you take the initiative to ask to see King Yan? You're the Governor of Langzhou!"

Li Yuan shook his head and said, "It is precisely because I am now the governor of the town and the envoy of the festival that I can't take the initiative to see King Yan, and my identity does not allow me to do so, unless it is invited by King Yan. Don't worry, if I don't see him, he will definitely look for me, and he finally waited for me to return to Beijing, how could he let go of this good opportunity to catch up with me?

Also, you don't have to worry about the safety of your eldest brother, he is now His Majesty's pro-Peng Guogong, and he has come to Beijing to thank him for this trip, who dares to disadvantage him? What's more, King Yan must also know about my relationship with your eldest brother, and he won't do anything to him."

Peng Qingying didn't understand what Li Yuan said, because she didn't know about the previous things between Li Yuan and King Yan. However, from the voice, Peng Qingying also realized something, there must be something involved and story between Lang Jun and this Yan King.

Peng Qingying is very smart, she will never force her husband to do what she wants him to do, because in her opinion, Li Yuan is a big hero, and she is obviously much higher than herself in terms of strategy, and she will not be the pillow person who gets in the way.

"Well, what I listen to you is, you just take this matter to heart, I blame you for it, and I ask Lang Jun for forgiveness." Peng Qingying gently leaned her head on Li Yuan's shoulder and whispered.

Li Yuan hugged her to comfort her, and then got dressed and got up.

From the time he learned that Li Yuan had returned to the capital, officials and some scribes who had come to visit him had come in an endless stream, but because Governor Li was drunk and asleep, they were all blocked from the door.

From today's afternoon until the evening, there were still people standing outside the gate of the mansion unremittingly, and Li Yuan couldn't really turn them all away, so he finally decided to go to the front hall to meet some officials from the Sixth Ministry, and then have a false relationship with them......
