Chapter 107: Li Chengqian's Olive Branch
All the mercenaries sent out are fighting on their respective battlefields, no one knows, and Chang'an City behind them is still so prosperous and lively, the open Chang'an has made merchants from all over the world come here from thousands of miles away, bringing their various treasures here, Chang'an's merchants and nobles are flocking to it, the backyard of Li Mansion, Li Yong looked at the battle reports and situations of various mercenaries, rubbed his sour eyes, he sighed that Li Er had to approve so many twists and turns a day, he really admired him, The emperor's profession is really not capable of ordinary people, after reading the battle report, he took a look at the situation of the industry again, he is now the shopkeeper, there are people in charge of everything, he only looks at it occasionally, everything is developing steadily as he thinks.
"Childe, someone from the East Palace is looking for you."
Chunlan's arrival interrupted Li Yong's nap, Li Yong heard the East Palace, and muttered to himself, since he gave Li Chengqian the pair of shoes that allowed him to walk like a normal person, there was no intersection between them, because Li Yong didn't want to deal with these princes, he knew that these people were all playing to death in the end, it was too dangerous, Li Er's sons were left with the unknown Li Zhi in the end, so Li Yong stayed away from those princes and ministers who died, although Du He, Fang Jun was thrown by him to the Longwei camp, and the original history has changed, but he doesn't dare to guarantee that they will go back to the original history in the future, Du He doesn't know, because this guy doesn't learn and loves to die, as for Fang Jun, he is speechless, the ancestor of the historical green hat, his brain is not good, he listened to the words of the unlucky daughter-in-law to rebel, and in the end he didn't prepare for it, it was over, this unlucky urging.
"Just say that I am not feeling well, and I will disappear, and in the future, when those princes and princes come to me, they will all say that I am not there."
Chunlan was also puzzled, why her son-in-law didn't treat those people so much, but she knew that he must have his own reasons, so she walked back to send that person, in fact, Li Chengqian is a good person, he is Li Er's eldest son, he was canonized as a prince at the age of eight, and he has been blessed since he was a child. It's a pity that when I grew up, I first fell lame in my foot, and then played brokeback mountain with that bullshit. Coupled with his timid, inferior, and cowardly character, he and Li Er want to be easy to store at every turn, and the key is that those guys under him who think about what to do all day long are instigated. Such Li Chengqian was afraid that his crown prince would be taken away by other brothers all day long, and Li Er had always doted on the little fat man Li Tai, Li Chengqian finally chose to strike first and rebelled. It's a pity that the rebellion failed, under the double blow of this kind of physical attack and magic attack, it was really someone in front who pulled someone in the back and pushed it back, and directly sent the prince away, Li Yong is a traverser, but he is not a savior, he can't change many things in history, he has long written down the list of those who rebelled and died, and always reminded himself to stay away from these people, and the province finally got himself involved, anyway, he resolutely didn't do anything to die, and after he took Datang to dominate the world, he retired successfully, but he had a good idea, It's hard in reality. Li Chengqian heard his subordinates come back and say that Li Yong didn't see him, and his subordinates thought that the prince would be unhappy, so he hurriedly said.
"Prince, then Li Yong is self-esteemed, isn't he a little six-rank official, you can afford him, it's his blessing......"
Li Chengqian stretched out his hand to stop his subordinate from continuing, and there was no angry look on his face, but said with a smile.
"You don't understand, don't look at him as just a sixth-grade official, but he is also a fifth-grade county uncle, my brother-in-law, and his huge industry, the most important thing is that he is only sixteen years old, such a person must be drawn to me, you continue to look for him, until you see him, if you can't see him, don't come back."
The heat was stupid immediately, this was supposed to say a few bad words about Li Yong to increase his sense of existence, now it's okay, send it out directly, and I can't go back to the East Palace if I don't see Li Yong, this is a fun time, but I can only reluctantly continue to go to Li Mansion to find Li Yong, the next day Li Yong received a person from the East Palace again, and said that he didn't see him, he didn't leave outside Li Mansion, which made Li Yong angry, and directly asked someone to throw this scoundrel out, but Li Yong didn't expect that this person really didn't leave outside his mansion.
"Hey, you're still doing it."
"Childe, do you want the guards to drive him away?"
"Forget it, this kind of fly can't be driven away, I'll go see what Li Chengqian means, take him to the front hall, I'll meet him."
Lin Laosi squatted in the Li Mansion for three days and three nights, it can be regarded as seeing the main master, seeing Li Yong sitting on the main seat, he didn't dare to make a mistake, hugging his fists and saluting that respectfully, Li Yong looked at the perseverance Lin Laosi, and then said lightly.
"You have the perseverance to come, say, what is the matter with your master looking for me?"
"My lord, the prince wants to see you, I wonder if you can go to the East Palace to talk about it?"
Lin Laosi originally thought that Li Yong would be like everyone else, and when he heard the prince's invitation, he would agree with his mouth, but Li Yong refused directly with an expressionless face.
"No, no."
"If you don't go, you can get the favor of the prince, don't go? No, my lord......"
Lin Laosi was also unable to get Li Yong out of the script, when he was carried out by two tall guards like chickens, he hadn't come back to his senses yet, looking at the closed door, he muttered.
"If you don't go, how can you not go? It shouldn't be, how can this be, no, open the door, I want to see my uncle, open the door~"
Lin Laosi kept banging on the thick door, he shouted for most of the day but no one paid attention to him, he only returned to the East Palace dejectedly, after all, he saw Li Yong, as for being rejected There was no way, he secretly hated Li Yong, because it wasn't him, he wouldn't have squatted on the street for three days, and he didn't even give face at all, so that he couldn't ask for credit in front of the prince, maybe he would be punished, on the way back to the East Palace, Lin Laosi scolded Li Yong's ancestors for eighteen generations, when he saw Li Chengqian, After saying Li Yong's refusal to invite him to add fuel and vinegar, Li Chengqian also frowned slightly when he heard it, and it could be seen that Lin Laosi's nonsense had worked, Lin Laosi was happy in his heart, and secretly thought, Li Yong, you just wait for the prince's revenge, dare to look down on me Lin Laosi. Li Chengqian is indeed unhappy in his heart, but Li Yong is a rare talent, although he has not shown it yet, but Li Chengqian has also discovered his potential, I have to say that Li Er's sons and daughters are indeed born politicians, Li Chengqian's fingers knocked on the table rhythmically, and he thought for a while and said.
"You go again and tell him that it's okay not to come to the East Palace, and the place is also chosen by him, just say that my eldest brother wants to talk to his brother-in-law about family affairs."
Lin Laosi was taken aback when he heard this, what's wrong? Shouldn't you get angry and send someone to retaliate against Li Yong? How did you become an uncle and brother-in-law? Why don't you play according to the routine? A lot of question marks appeared in his mind, but he had to listen to Li Chengqian's orders, so he had to go to Li's mansion again with grievances, but he was told that Li Yong went to the barracks to deal with military affairs, and he didn't know when he would come back, but this Lin Laosi once again launched his unique skill - squatting, and squatted for another three days, Li Yong, who was hiding in the backyard, couldn't stand this guy anymore, and asked the guards to drive him directly outside the fang, but this goods squatted directly at the fangmen, and now Li Yong had to see him, because this person came and went looking at the people in the East Palace squatting on him like this, He couldn't afford to lose this man.
"Are you finished?"
"My lord, please stop being angry, it's not that the little ones don't know how to lift up, it's really the prince who wants to see you, so the little ones can't do this."
"Okay, let's talk, what does the prince say, what are you going to do?"
"The prince said, you don't want to come to the East Palace, you can listen to your arrangement, he just chatted with your brother-in-law about family matters."
Li Yong can't say that his eldest brother is really good at talking, and he changed the official affairs to family affairs, for the sake of Changle, he had to give this face, after all, he is Changle's eldest brother, and he is like this when he reaches out and doesn't hit the smiling face.
"Okay, I know, tomorrow you'll meet in the Juxian Lou Tiangong Room in the East City, you can get out."
After hearing this, Lin Laosi hurriedly ran out of the Li Mansion, and then happily returned to the East Palace to report the news, Li Yong waited for Lin Laosi to leave, and then said to Chunlan on the side.
"You go and arrange it, don't tell Changle about this, I don't want her to worry, understand?"
Chunlan is now a person from the Li Mansion, but she still regularly reports some of Li Yong's situation to Changle, especially the women's affairs, although Li Yong is only these women now, but that girl is relieved that such an excellent man, if she doesn't pay attention, the two sisters of the martial arts family will come in. Li Yong and Chunlan said this, in fact, Chunlan also understood what he meant, this matter is related to the prince, naturally it will not be very simple, she listened to Li Yong's words this time, and did not tell her hostess about this matter, as for other arrangements, Li Yong does not have to worry at all, because the affairs of the mansion are all in charge of Chunlan, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is now the head of the Li Mansion, their daughters now have a clear division of labor, Zheng Liwan is responsible for everything outside, Wu Cao assists, Wu Shun is only in charge of her small theater, and Chunlan is in charge of the affairs of the mansion, Xiaoxue is responsible for the management of the accounts, so that Li Yong is much more worry-free, Li Yong did not tell others about his desire to see Li Chengqian, in order not to let them worry, Chunlan also kept her mouth shut and did not mention it, as for Li Yong to have a banquet in the heavenly palace room tomorrow, Zheng Liwan and they didn't ask, after all, they would naturally say their own man's affairs, and they would naturally say it, and there was a reason why he didn't say it, and they didn't get entangled. The next day, Li Yong took Chunlan and the guards to Juxian Tower, and the shopkeeper saw Chunlan and hurriedly saluted her and said respectfully.
"Young lady, you are here, the Tiangong room is ready."
Outside, if their daughters don't appear at the same time, those shopkeepers will call them young ladies, if one of them appears together, that is, Zheng Liwan is the third lady, Wu Shun is the fourth lady, Wu Cao is the fifth lady, Chunlan is the sixth lady, Xiaoxue is the seventh lady, as for their eldest lady and mother, it must be the eldest princess Li Liqing, and the second lady is Li Xueyan, the lord of Hejian County, but neither of them has ever appeared in Li Yong's industry, so they just know that there are such two people, both of whom have never met, Although Chunlan and Xiaoxue and Li Yong were earlier than the Wu sisters, they were still not as good as being the daughters of the Guogong, so they could only be ranked behind, but they didn't care about this, they didn't distinguish each other here in Li Yong, anyway, they were all busy and harmonious. The shopkeeper doesn't know Li Yong, because Li Yong's dress is similar to those guards, plus Li Yong's perennial exercise, his body is tall and mighty, and the whole is full of masculinity, so people who don't know Li Yong will mistakenly think that he is the guard of the Li Mansion, in fact, Li Yong wants this effect, so that those who want to do the black hand on him are not so easy to achieve accurate strikes, the shopkeeper took Chunlan and Li Yong upstairs, and Chunlan asked the shopkeeper to wait below.
"When the guests come, you can bring them up directly, just don't ask anything."
"The little one understands."
Li Yong looked at this little maid who was not very friendly to him back then, and now she is a very dignified executive, Li Yong couldn't help but give Chunlan a thumbs up and said.
"I can't see that our Mrs. Chunlan is so prestigious, powerful."
"Nasty."
Chunlan directly gave him a pair of sanitary balls, but her pretty face also turned red, just now when she was called a young lady in front of Li Yong and so many people, she was ashamed, and now she was teased by Li Yong like this, not only did she blush, but even her white neck was all red, but she was still very happy in her heart, that girl was not pregnant with spring, and she was the most attractive for a heroic man like Li Yong, not to mention that she had been by Li Yong's side for more than three years, it should be said that the first person to follow Li Yong in Xishan was relatively long-lasting. What's more, her identity is also recognized by Li Yong's parents, and now she has nothing else to ask for, just to help Li Yong manage the affairs of the family, and for Li Yong, although Chunlan's appearance is not as good as Changle and others, it is not far behind, and she looks a bit like a little female star named He Lin in his era. Li Yong stood at the window and looked at the scenery outside with the early lights, and Chunlan obediently made tea for him, before Li Yong finished drinking the first tea, Li Chengqian took a few guards to the shopkeeper under the leadership of the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper closed the door very interestingly and left, Li Yong made a gesture to the sad prince in history.
"Prince, please."
Li Chengqian saw Li Yong's simple dress, and felt that he couldn't understand him, to say that he was rich, Li Yong's casual industry was a daily progress, when it came to titles and official positions, he was a dignified five-grade founding county uncle and a six-grade official, but he was dressed like ordinary people, which was really intriguing, and Li Yong didn't care about what the prince thought, because he didn't want to have too much intersection with them, Li Chengqian sat directly on the main seat very unceremoniously, and Chunlan, who was making tea on the side, skimmed slightly from the corner of his eye, Then continue to make tea for them, and Chunlan's actions also made the prince notice, thinking that this Li Yong's maid didn't care about herself, but judging from her actions just now, she seemed to be very disdainful of him sitting on the main seat, but at the same time, he found that this maid who made tea was actually more beautiful than those women in his East Palace, which should be described as stunning, he took the tea made by Chunlan and took a sip, the fragrant tea fragrance made him feel refreshed, he put down the hot tea and said to Li Yong.
"Or Xishan County, you will enjoy it, the tea is good, the people are better, such a good tea, I have also drunk it a few times from my father, this mysterious heavenly palace room is so gorgeous, my East Palace can't compare to it."
Li Chengqian's words have words, sarcastic things about Li Yong except for today's saints, he, the prince, has nothing, whether it is tea or tea-making Chunlan, or the luxurious Tiangong room, it is good for him to look at anything, but he can't covet his own woman, he Li Yong is not a person who is not the same as them, in ancient times, concubines were like commodities, and they were given to friends or others at will to gain the favor of the other party, and how could Li Yong not hear what he meant, Li Yong also put down the teacup in his hand and sat beside him very unceremoniously.
"All the things here, you can take a few things back to play if you like, but she is my wife, if you don't know how to respect others indoors, then you can go back, I have nothing to talk to you about, you are the prince, you are a person with status, I hope you don't think or do things that don't conform to your identity."
Li Chengqian couldn't help but be stunned after hearing this, he still knew some of Li Yong's situation, in addition to his sister and cousin Li Xueyan, he knew Li Yong's wives and concubines, he couldn't imagine that a concubine would make Li Yong angry, he did fall in love with Chunlan at a glance, and he just wanted Li Yong to give this beautiful concubine to himself, but he didn't expect Li Yong to warn him directly with a gun and a stick, and Chunlan heard Li Yong's words, her heart was very warm, because she knew that concubines like them, as long as he was willing, They are exchanged for goods like goods, but Li Yong is different from everyone, as he said, in his heart, they are not separated from each other, they are all his family, Chunlan didn't make tea at this time, and stood directly next to Li Yong, and Li Yong directly pulled her to sit on the chair next to him, which is incredible in the eyes of everyone, because except for the housewife and the two equal wives in the family, the concubine is not qualified to sit, but Li Yong didn't care about it, although Chunlan didn't show any expression on her face, But my heart was so excited that I wanted to jump.
"You're really a disobedient guy, what would she think if she let Lizhi know?"
Li Yong replied disdainfully.
"She will have no opinion at all, because she understands that this is the rule of my family, and other people's rules will not work with me."
Li Chengqian waved his hand and said.
"Let's not talk about these rules, let's talk about other things."
Li Chengqian seemed to skip the matter of wanting Chunlan just now, and he didn't care at all, it should be such a trivial matter for him to be commonplace, but Li Yong had already pulled him directly into the blacklist in his heart, and Li Chengqian didn't know it.
"Okay, I'll have a treat today, let's talk and talk, Chunlan, go and let them serve tea."
Chunlan got up and left directly, and Li Yong also stood up and walked directly to the main seat of the dining table and sat down, and Li Chengqian saw that although he was a little angry, he still endured it, not to mention that this was Li Yong's territory, and he had to win him over, so he sat directly opposite Li Yong, and the two sat at each other, Li Yong had no opinion on this, but he could do twenty people at this big table, he liked to sit there, and when Chunlan, who had arranged everything, returned to the room, he saw this strange scene, the invited guests were opposite, and the guests who invited them sat in the main seat, How could she not know Li Yong's thoughts, at this time, Li Yong beckoned to her.
"Chunlan, you sit next to me."
Sitting next to Li Yong just now had already surprised Li Chengqian, and now he was eating directly at the table, which made Li Chengqian very unhappy, the concubine went to the table to eat, it was simply paradoxical, but Chunlan didn't care at all about the eyes of the prince sitting next to Li Yong, Li Chengqian was as uncomfortable as eating a fly, and the sumptuous delicacies were served one by one, Li Yong said to Li Chengqian.
"I don't like to drink, so I won't prepare alcohol tonight, and I will eat and talk at home."
Looking at this table full of delicacies from the mountains and seas, after hearing Li Yong's words like Versailles, Li Chengqian immediately felt that the delicacies on the table were not fragrant, but Li Yong didn't care about him so much, he directly picked up a piece of fish and meat and ate it, Chunlan also kept putting vegetables in his bowl, and Li Yong also gave Chunlan a clip from time to time, this Li Chengqian seemed to be superfluous, watching them sprinkle dog food to show affection, and they were full without eating.
"Li Yong, I asked you to come today, in fact, you should understand what I mean, that is, to join me, and wait for me to sit in that position in the future, and enter the center."
Li Chengqian swallowed a piece of fat but not greasy roast mutton, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and said elegantly, but Li Yong didn't seem to hear it, and continued to eat, so Li Chengqian was very dissatisfied, obviously he had stretched out an olive branch, but he didn't seem to be interested, in other words, others had already thanked God and knelt in front of him to show their loyalty, in the luxurious heavenly palace room, the atmosphere on the huge dinner table was very weird, Li Yong didn't say anything to Li Chengqian, just talked and laughed with Chunlan next to him, completely ignoring him, he was like air, Li Chengqian's hand under the table was already clenched into fists, and just when he was about to explode, Li Yong put down his chopsticks Chunlan obediently wiped the oil stains on his mouth with a handkerchief.
"The marquis is still in the center, okay, this is a good thing, I want to be a big official in my dreams, but there is a question below, that is, I don't know when the prince will be able to sit in that position?"
Li Yong's words were inserted deep into Li Chengqian's heart like a sharp sword, Li Er is only in his thirties now, and he is in the prime of life, if nothing else, at least he can stay in that position for more than thirty years, and Li Chengqian is already twenty years old, if he waits for him to sit in the position of his father, he will be over half a hundred years old that day, and he will kill people, this is to directly open the reality that Li Chengqian is unwilling to accept, Li Chengqian's clenched fists and fingers are white because he is too hard, Li Yong didn't want to get on his ship in the first place, It should be said that all of their ships, even if it is Li Er's, he Li Yong only fights for this country and the nation, as for an olive branch like Li Chengqian, he will not accept it, Li Yong continued.
"Prince, I said something you don't like to hear, that position is not what you want and want, it is given to you by a saint, you can only ask for it, don't give it to you, you or anyone can't ask for it, remember, just do your own thing, it's not too early, I should also go, as for your kindness, I understand it, goodbye."
After Li Yong finished speaking, he took Chunlan out of the Tiangong room, leaving only Li Chengqian in a daze, and Chunlan boldly took Li Yong's arm and went home happily, and the husband and wife returned home.
