Chapter 44: Introducing Blind Dates

Therefore, Yuan Shen is already in the capital now, but I don't know if he has met Cheng Shaoshang during his time in the capital.

In addition, the Liang family has also gone to the capital now, and will always be resident in the capital, nominally to accompany his son, which can be reminiscent of other people who went to the capital during this time period.

A group of big families such as the Liang family, the Dou family, and the Wu family all have main branches to go to the capital, and the meaning of this is self-evident.

However, this is much more moderate than Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's pretense of building the imperial tomb and setting up the opportunity of the Ling County to carry out large-scale migration of the clans in the eastern part of the country, at least the foundations of each family are still there.

In addition to the Yuan family, the Liang family has changed a lot in the past few years, for example, Liang Shang and Liang Yao have already married, and Liang Shang's side is due to Li Hao's marriage to Qu Lengjun, so the Yuan and Qu Liang families are at a loss.

So with the help of the three families, he found the daughter of the Hongnong Yang family as his wife, and the family was not weaker than the Qu family, and no one provoked his fragile self-esteem this time, so the marriage was quite smooth, and this time he did not go to the capital with Liang Yuan, but only stayed in his hometown in Hedong.

And Liang Yao is not good here, after all, this guy is not the future head of the Liang family, the Liang family is unwilling to contribute too much for him, and the Yuan and Qu families will not take the initiative to help him, so they are reluctant to marry the daughter of the local county order family, and the family is not high.

For this reason, Liang Yao was very dissatisfied, so this time he entered the capital with Liang Yuan, thinking if he could plan for himself.

Of course, the content about the Liang family in this is not what Liang Wuji said, he is not idle enough to talk to Li Hao about his own gossip, and Li Hao chatted with other people later.

But that's okay, originally only Qu Lengjun was alone in the capital, and Li Hao was worried that she would be bullied by others.

Now that Yuan Shen and the Liang family are taking care of it, even if someone wants to do something from it, they will not succeed, and Li Hao still believes in their ability in this regard.

After Liang Wuji talked about the Yuan family, he analyzed with Li Hao the reward he might receive after going to the capital this time.

The Han Dynasty was the first to pay attention to military merits, and with Li Hao's merits in Shudi, the liehou would definitely not be able to arrive, but there would definitely be a Guannei Hou, and the difference was only the size of the food.

Li Hao is not short of this bit of money, but it is more or less related to status, so naturally he still hopes that the more the better.

However, the title is only imaginary, and the important thing is the specific official position, because this represents the specific real power.

But in this regard, Liang Wuji took the initiative to say: "Regarding your official canonization, neither your father nor I can intervene, so as not to be self-defeating."

The ones who can really talk here are Lai She and Wu Han, they are the chief officials of this expedition to Shu, Your Majesty will definitely ask their opinions when finalizing the reward, so what is your relationship with them, can I help you? ”

Li Hao replied: "Uncle Tang, don't worry, I have always been kind to others, and my relationship with the two generals is still good, at least I can guarantee that they will not belittle me." ”

"You're really not asking for much." Liang Wuji just heard that the relationship was good, and he thought that what would happen later, but he waited until a sentence that would not be belittled, and he was lost.

Li Hao replied: "This is already very good, people's hearts are separated from their belly, and I am not a roundworm in their stomachs, like this kind of old fox that has become a spirit, where is it so easy to see clearly."

And I think it's good for them to just speak upright, after all, Your Majesty doesn't necessarily want them to be too close to the Yuan family. ”

Liang Wuji smiled when he heard this, and said, "But I think it's wrong, they are indeed fair and straightforward in this matter." ”

"Are you really trying to do it, I see you're obviously testing me." After Li Hao finished speaking, he and Liang Wuji glanced at each other, and the two laughed in unison.

Then Liang Wuji said: "Since you can see it clearly, then I don't need to say more, go back and rest early."

Then you can recuperate in Qian County for two days, and then go to the capital as soon as possible to resume your life, try not to miss the time. ”

Li Hao got up and said goodbye when he heard this, he didn't notice Liang Wuji's gaze behind him, Liang Wuji was quite envious of Yuan Pei, except because he himself had no children under his knees, and Yuan Pei had two sons.

He was even more envious of the excellence of the two sons of the Yuan family, because with these two people, the Yuan family would be carefree for decades.

Looking at the Liang family, he is now past the age of confusion, how long can he continue to support the Liang family, and after he dies, Liang Shang can really support the Liang family's family business.

Liang Wuji really has no bottom in his heart, and now he can only hope that the next generation of the Liang family can produce a few useful people as soon as possible.

Li Hao naturally didn't know about Liang Wuji's troubles, and even if he knew, Li Hao had no other way than to encourage him to continue his strings as soon as possible and have a few more sons.

After staying in Qian County for three days, and letting the guards recuperate, Li Hao set foot on the road to the capital again.

Now there is no large team to follow, and it only took seven days for a group of people to rush to Luoyang City, this time Li Hao did not notify in advance, so no one greeted him outside the city.

After entering the city, the subordinates first returned to the Yuan family's old house, while Li Hao went to the palace to resume his life.

Of course, you can't see the emperor generally, but the process is to go down, except for the real generals like Lai She and Wu Han, the rest are like Li Hao's level, most of the military power was lifted before returning to Beijing, just let the emperor know that you are back.

Li Hao originally planned to stand like this for a while, and then he could leave, but he didn't expect that after a while, an attendant would come out and announce that Li Hao would enter the Xuanming Hall for questioning.

This made Li Hao confused, and he didn't understand what Emperor Wen had to ask about him, but thinking that he hadn't done anything, his heart was stable.

Later, when he saw Emperor Wen again, seeing that his face was not bad, Li Hao's mentality was even more relaxed.

After Emperor Wen saw Li Hao, he said: "Do you know what I have to say about calling you here today." ”

Hearing this, Li Hao was stunned for a moment, thinking that you want to guess a dumb riddle with me, you didn't give me any hints, what do you want me to guess.

Of course, this question must not be said like this, but he simply replied: "The minister really doesn't know, and I ask Your Majesty to make it clear, and the minister must know everything and say everything." ”

Emperor Wen was not very satisfied with Li Hao's answer, and immediately said: "Guess, if you guess correctly, I will reward you." ”

In fact, this is not very difficult to guess, after all, Li Hao has just returned to the capital, and he doesn't know much about other things, so even if Emperor Wen wants to ask, he can't get an answer.

So most likely, what Emperor Wen will ask about is about the conquest of Shuzhong, or simply about the reward.

However, Li Hao didn't plan to guess, Li Hao and Emperor Wen didn't have much affection after all, and there was no benefit in pretending to be smart, and he couldn't do it with Yang Xiu.

Of course, Emperor Wen is not Cao Cao, and his suspicion may not be so serious, but it is better to pay attention to some things.

It may not be possible to attack for a while now, but I can't say which sentence will be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

So in the end, Li Hao said: "Your Majesty's thoughts, how dare the minister speculate, or Your Majesty tell the minister." ”

As soon as these words came out, Emperor Wen couldn't help but laugh softly: "What about you, how can you learn at such a young age as your father is so old, it's really boring." ”

After finishing speaking, Emperor Wen also talked about his purpose: "Now that Shuzhong is calm, the imperial court is discussing rewards for meritorious ministers such as you."

I have already asked the opinions of the two great generals, and they both have a high opinion of you, and they have all made me reward you for your good life, so Gu really intends to add a burden to you, but I don't know if you are willing to do it. ”

Li Hao said in his heart that he really guessed correctly, Emperor Wen came to him for the reward, but Li Hao didn't understand the burden that Emperor Wen said.

However, in this case, no matter whether he understands it or not, Li Hao will never refuse, and said decisively: "As long as His Majesty orders, there is nothing to do." ”

"Don't say it so early, let's listen to me before answering, I don't want to embarrass you, I still have to make you willing."

As soon as he heard this, Li Hao felt a little bad, and he felt that this seat was not so easy to sit on.

"There is no one around the prince now, I hope you can go to the East Palace to serve and assist the prince in supervising the military affairs."

This really caught Li Hao off guard, he really didn't expect Emperor Wen to think of such an arrangement and let himself serve in the East Palace.

Although Li Hao thought about supporting the prince, after all, the third prince is like that, after he really becomes the emperor, the courtiers under him will definitely be uncomfortable, and the prince is different when he is the emperor.

But being willing to support does not mean that Li Hao is willing to go into battle shirtless, according to Li Hao's idea, he must hide in the dark first, wait for Ling Budo to get rid of the unreliable guys around the prince, and then see if the situation is on the field.

Speaking of which, shouldn't this position be given to him by waiting for Ling Budo to come back, why did Emperor Wen suddenly want to push it to himself in a hurry, is there something wrong with this.

Another thing worth pondering is the attitude of Emperor Wen in this matter, originally Emperor Wen did not let the prince marry Qu Lengjun, according to Li Hao's thoughts, he just didn't want the prince to make peace

Yuan, Liang, and Qu have too many things to do with each other, so why did they suddenly change their attitudes now.

Thinking about the fate of the prince in the original plot, Li Hao had to suspect that Emperor Wen would not be digging a pit for himself, the purpose was to use this to attack the Yuan family.

After some hesitation, Li Hao still planned to refuse first, anyway, the eldest husband can bend and stretch, there is no need to fight for face for the previous words: "The prince has a Lou Taifu by his side, and Wu has a general of chariots and cavalry, where do you need me to help."

Moreover, the relationship between the minister's wife and the crown princess is not harmonious, if the minister goes to the East Palace to serve, he is afraid that it will stimulate contradictions, and he is afraid that it will affect the prince at that time.

It's not that the minister is unwilling to go to the East Palace to serve, it's just that the minister is really not suitable. ”

However, it was obvious that Emperor Wen was not as he said, and he really didn't care about the result, so after hearing Li Hao's words, he replied directly: "You have been in contact with Wang Chun for a long time, and Wang Chun's ability is, can't you see it."

There's no need to say a lie, I give you a few days to go back and think about it, and then go into the palace and tell me the result when you're done. ”

After speaking, he didn't let Li Hao reply, and directly asked Li Hao to retreat, this made Li Hao angry, what kind of voluntary thing is this, let yourself agree voluntarily.

I could only let me go back to Yuan's mansion with a depressed face, and when Li Hao was about to arrive, I saw Yuan Shen waiting outside the mansion gate, but as soon as Li Hao approached, he heard him complain: "Didn't you go to the palace to report on your work, why didn't you come back until this time." ”

Li Hao sighed when he heard this: "Hey, I was summoned into the palace by His Majesty to talk about something, and I was delayed for some time." ”

Seeing Li Hao's not very good appearance, Yuan Shen asked curiously, "What did Your Majesty say to you, why is this expression?" ”

"I'll go see my mother first, and then we'll talk about it later, and I just want to hear your opinion."

Seeing that Li Hao said so seriously, Yuan Shen realized that this matter was probably not small, so he agreed to it.

Just as the two of them entered the mansion, Li Hao remembered that Yuan Shen was standing outside the mansion just now, so he asked again: "By the way, did you just wait for me outside the mansion!" This doesn't look like you're a person. ”

Hearing this, Yuan Shen recalled the cool breeze he had just blown outside the mansion, and said angrily: "Do you think I want to wait for you, just now the maid had to wait outside, I couldn't stand it, so I let her go into the mansion, and I will wait for you outside the mansion." ”

"Oh, then you did a good job, let's go quickly, after seeing my mother, I still have to see Leng Jun, I haven't seen him for nearly a year, I miss it very much."

Speaking of which, you are not young now, do you have a favorite girl, if not, Leng Jun knows a lot of girls in the capital, I will ask him to help you introduce it. ”

Hearing Li Hao's words, Yuan Shen was even more angry, you said that you just show your affection, why do you have to stab you again.

However, he also knew that his theory could not be compared with Li Hao, and after personally contacting Li Hao, a loving couple, he actually had some doubts about this theory.

So Yuan Shen didn't talk to Li Hao later, and he didn't even hear what Quan said before, but in Li Hao's heart, he wrote it down.

When he had time, Li Hao really planned to ask Qu Lengjun to help Yuan Shen introduce him, and then bring Cheng Shaoshang in by the way, to see if they would have feelings if they changed their contact methods.

It's just that this must wait for Cheng Shi to come back before there can be a reason, so you can let others try it before that, in case Yuan Shen sees the right eye, Li Hao has no specific requirements for his sister-in-law anyway.

Just when Li Hao was happy, Yuan Shen next to him only felt cold, as if something was wrong, and couldn't help but glance at Li Hao next to him.

It's also thanks to him that he can't see through Li Hao's thoughts, otherwise the two brothers will have to fight first, and of course Yuan Shen will definitely not be able to win.

When the two arrived at the small ancestral hall, the Liang family had been waiting here for a long time, and in the end, for Li Hao, a son who had not seen him for nearly four years, even if she showed it on her face, the maternal love in her heart still existed.

Especially when she heard that Li Hao was seriously injured, if Qu Lengjun hadn't taken the initiative to go over, maybe she would have gone to Chang'an.

It's just that when it really came to face Li Hao, Liang only asked: "How are your injuries doing now, and what injuries are there in the future?" ”

Li Hao replied: "Please rest assured, mother, my health is already well, and I have not been injured in Shuzhong in the future, so you are worried." ”

After hearing this, Liang looked at Li Hao deeply, and then said, "Okay, I won't continue to keep you, Leng Jun has been waiting for you in the courtyard, you should go back to see her early." ”

Li Hao nodded yes, and then made an appointment with Yuan Shen to have a detailed chat after lunch, and then hurried back to see Qu Lengjun.
