Huang Zhiquan pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "I can understand General Li's dedication to maintaining law and order, but I don't know if the military can interrogate civil cases, this has to be decided by the imperial court, so let's do it! I will send a document to the Criminal Department stating this matter, if the Criminal Department approves it, then I will also fully support General Li, what does General Li think?"

Li Zhen secretly scolded this guy for being an old fox, and he actually pushed the matter to the Criminal Department, in fact, Li Zhen didn't want to cross the line, he just needed an excuse, once an unknown force committed a crime within his boundary, he could attack at any time, but he couldn't say it clearly.

"Hehe! I'm just making a suggestion, and if you don't think it's appropriate, I'll just say it. ”

Huang Zhiquan didn't want to be polite to Li Zhen in this matter, he smiled, and then diverted the topic, he asked with a smile: "I heard that the general's official residence is only rented temporarily, and I have a few official residences there, so why don't I solve the housing problem for the general!"

"Li Zhenxin, the good will of the king, in fact, there are many houses on the military side, but they are a little in disrepair, I am sending someone to repair them, so I will not trouble the king, in addition, I personally want to buy a house, if there is a suitable house on the side of the king, you may wish to introduce it to me. ”

"This is really a coincidence, Chang'an County is about to publicly sell a batch of ownerless official residences, if the general is interested, you might as well go and take a look, I will go and say hello to Yang County. ”

Li Zhen was overjoyed, "Then thank you Huang Yuanjun." ”

Huang Zhiquan came to Li Zhen, and another thing was to inquire about Zhou Yaosi's situation, but Li Zhen didn't mention Zhou Yaosi's affairs at all, and he didn't want to ask, but Huang Zhiquan and Zhou Yaosi belonged to different factions, and the relationship between the two was usually not good.

Huang Zhiquan sat for a while, then got up to say goodbye, Li Zhen didn't leave him, and sent him outside the gate, Huang Zhiquan got into the carriage and smiled at Li Zhen: "General Li or his subordinates have any difficulties in life, just ask, I will do my best to help." ”

"Thank you for making Jun Meiyi!"

Li Zhen watched his carriage go away, and then turned around and returned to the official office, at this time, a soldier stepped forward quickly and saluted: "General Qiyu, the head of the eldest grandson family asks to see you." ”

Li Zhen had just sent Huang Zhiquan away, and another eldest grandson family head came, he really felt a headache, and he looked rude when he didn't see it, so he had to order: "Please ask him to sit in the guest room for a while, I'll go change clothes, and I'll come right away." ”

Li Zhen went back to his official room and took a sip of tea, and then he hurriedly went to the guest room, only to see a middle-aged man sitting in the guest room, nearly fifty years old, with a medium stature, a long square face, and slightly purple skin, but he was not very calm and confident, and he seemed a little flustered, and even the cup almost overturned.

Li Zhen coughed lightly and walked into the guest hall, and the eldest grandson Yan hurriedly stood up and saluted, "See General Li!"

Eldest Sun Yan felt a little bit like a thief, and the alliance leader Dugu Mingxi should have come to visit Li Zhen first, and then they could come to visit, but Dugu Mingxi had not moved, and Changsun Yan couldn't bear the anxiety in his heart, so he still came.

There was another reason why he came to visit Li Zhen, that is, he received a secret letter from Li Dan, and Li Dan asked him to give Li Zhen support, so the eldest grandson Yan rushed to see Li Zhen impatiently.

Li Zhen smiled and waved his hand, "The eldest grandson family master doesn't have to be polite, please take a seat!"

The eldest grandson Yan sat down and smiled at Li Zhen: "I went to Luoyang last year to watch the polo tournament, and I saw General Li's demeanor with my own eyes at that time, and I was very admirable, but I didn't expect to be able to sit opposite each other now, the eldest grandson is really fortunate in three lives!"

Li Zhen didn't know how many people he had met, all of them were talking about polo matches, he was already a little bored, and the flattery in this eldest grandson Yan's words made him dislike it even more, he smiled faintly and said: "I once heard King Shouchun talk about the head of the family, saying that the head of the family is very supportive of King Xiang-"

The king of Shouchun County is Li Chengqi, the eldest grandson Yan suddenly perked up, as if he had found a common language with Li Zhen, he hurriedly said: "I received a secret letter from the prime minister yesterday, asking me to fully assist the general in controlling Guanzhong, the eldest grandson's family still has power in Guanzhong, and there is no shortage of money, as long as General Li speaks, I will definitely try my best to help." ”

Speaking of this, he smiled mysteriously, took out the silver medal of the Xingtang Society from his arms, and showed a corner to Li Zhen to see, Li Zhen suddenly smelled a scorched smell, the person opposite was too unreliable, too rash, he and he had never known each other in his life, he exposed the secret of the Xiangwang and the Xingtang Society, if he was the person who came to Junchen, wouldn't this harm the Xiangwang and ruin the Xingtang Society?

Li Zhen was very vigilant about the eldest grandson Yansheng in his heart, even if the eldest grandson Yansheng was rich and rivaled the country, he would never ask him to do anything about the Xingtang Society.

Thinking of this, Li Zhen said in a cold tone: "General Ben has just taken office, and I am not familiar with many situations, and when I get acquainted with it, it is not too late to trouble the head of the Changsun family, and if I want to do things well, I will definitely not be able to do without the support of the elders of Chang'an Township." ”

"That's!

Eldest Sun Yan also felt that Li Zhen's tone was a little cold, but he didn't know what was wrong with him, he was a little nervous in his heart, so he took out a jade plate from his arms, pushed it to Li Zhen and said: "With this jade card, you can withdraw 30,000 yuan from any store opened by the eldest grandson's family, and it will be regarded as a settlement fee for the general, please accept it with a smile!"

Where is Li Zhen willing to accept his money, he pushed the jade card back, and said with a smile: "Thank you for the kindness of the family master, but Yu Shitai is very concerned about General Ben now, so-"

"Oh-"

Seeing that he refused to accept it, the eldest grandson Yan had to take back the jade plate with some embarrassment, and said, "In that case, I will visit the general next time."

"Well, I won't keep the head of the house. ”

Li Zhen didn't wait for him to finish, then got up with a smile and said, "Send off the guest for me!"

The eldest grandson Yan was stunned, he didn't say goodbye, he just said that he would give the jade plate to Li Zhen when he visited next time, but he didn't expect Li Zhen to think that he was going to say goodbye, but he had no choice but to get up and salute and go with melancholy.

Li Zhen looked at his back and walked away, and couldn't help but shake his head, he felt that it was necessary to find an opportunity to remind Li Chengqi that this eldest grandson Yan's mouth was really unreliable......

At dusk, Li Zhen, escorted by more than a dozen personal cavalry, returned to the official residence in Xuanyang in a carriage, only to see a carriage parked at the gate, and several family members waiting for the master.

Li Zhen was stunned in his heart, who is this coming to visit him?

He got out of the carriage and walked quickly towards the mansion, but he didn't see Di Yan rushing out like a bird to meet him, so he asked a maid, "Where is Madame?"

"Madame is in the back hall, and there are guests at home. ”

Li Zhen wanted to ask any guests, but the maid bowed and retreated, so he had to walk quickly to the inner hall, and just walked to the courtyard in front of the inner hall, he saw two young women strolling side by side in the courtyard, one was his wife Di Yan, and the other made Li Zhen stunned, not his eldest sister, but Wang whispered.

Li Zhen hesitated, and as soon as Di Yan turned around and saw her husband, she greeted her with a smile, "Husband is back." ”

"Oh, it's okay today, just come back early. ”

Wang Qingyu's face flushed, she didn't dare to look at Li Zhen, and hurriedly said, "Ah Yan, I'll go back first." ”

Di Yan grabbed her and smiled: "Didn't you just say that you would have dinner here? ”

"I've got something to do. ”

"If you have something to do, don't make excuses, the eldest sister will come later. ”

Li Zhen hurriedly said, "You guys talk first, I'll go to the study." ”

He turned around and walked quickly towards the study, Wang Qingyu saw that Li Zhen had left first, so he was a little relieved and no longer insisted on going back.

Li Zhen returned to the study and sat down, his heart was a little confused, he didn't expect Wang Qingyu to appear, although he had married Di Yan, but he could never forget the extremely sad beautiful eyes on the way to greet his relatives.

Li Zhen sighed softly, slowly closed his eyes, trying not to think about Wang whispering, he took a book, flipped through a few lines casually, couldn't read it at all, and threw the scroll aside.

At this moment, the door opened, Di Yan walked in with a bowl of ginseng tea, and asked with a smile, "Do you want me to bring dinner, or go over and eat together?"

My sister will be shocked. Li Zhen said with a bitter smile.

Di Yan put the tea on the table, sat beside him again, pursed her lips and smiled, "Why don't you ask why Qingyu came back?"

"Is it because of my eldest sister?"

"Where! People are landlords, it's normal to come and see the tenants!"

Li Zhen was stunned, "This." This house is hers?"

"What do you think!" Di Yan glanced at him, "No relatives and no reason, why should people give you such a good house for nothing." "Then what is she doing here, collecting rent?"

Li Zhen wanted to make a light joke, but his expression was stiff, and the joke was not very natural, Di Yan shook his head, got up and said, "Let's go, let's go to dinner!"

Li Zhen drank all the ginseng tea and followed Di Yan out.

In the dining hall, Li Quanzheng and Wang Qingyu whispered, talking and laughing, the relationship between the two was very good, and Wang Qingyu was also very relaxed in front of Li Quan, without the embarrassment when he saw Li Zhen just now.

In fact, Li Quan always hoped that Wang Qingyu would become his brother-in-law, but she later learned that Wang Qingyu was widowed, and before she could visit the church, her fiancé died, and Li Quan had to change her mind and accept Di Yan as her brother-in-law.

Although Di Yan is not bad, Li Quan is still ashamed to whisper to Wang, she always hopes to use some way to make up for it.

At this time, Li Zhen and Di Yan walked into the dining hall together, although Wang Qingyu had her back to the outside of the hall, her face was still red again, she stood up crampedly, and she didn't dare to look at Li Zhen, but fortunately, Li Quan was there, and she was the host, so she was exempted from Wang Qingyu's embarrassment.

"It's only dinner now, it's getting dark, come on! ”

Li Quan beckoned everyone to sit down, and then she remembered that Di Yan was the hostess, she was suddenly a little embarrassed, and said to Di Yan with a smile: "Ah Yan won't blame me for taking the lead!"

"Sister, how could it be? Don't be so polite. ”

Di Yan found out that Li Quan came over alone, and hurriedly asked, "What about the little guy, why didn't the eldest sister bring it with you?"

"She's got a cold today, so I've taken medicine and I'm going to sleep at home! ”

Today is a group table meal, everyone sat down on the soft seat, Li Zhen sat next to Di Yan, Wang Qingyu sat on the other side of Di Yan, Li Quan smiled and asked: "Ah Zhen, I didn't tell you! I took over a big business, the wine of the top ten wine shops in Chang'an is supplied by me, my small vineyard is not enough at all, I have to get another wine source." ”

As soon as Li Zhen heard it, he understood, how could there be such a good thing, it must have something to do with him, so he smiled at Wang and asked, "Whose industry are the top ten liquor stores in Chang'an?"

Wang whispered and said in a low voice: "You don't need to ask, this must have something to do with you, it should be the Zhao family that supplies wine, and the Zhao family has transferred the market to Sister Quan." ”

Li Quan's eyes widened, "So, is it still related to this stinky boy?"

Li Zhen was a little dissatisfied and said: "Sister, what a stinky boy, if you don't want to, you can give up." ”

"Go! Who gave up. ”

Li Quan smiled and said: "My brother's way, of course I enjoy it with peace of mind, in fact, I understand in my heart that last time the ten big restaurants didn't even let me in, and now as soon as my brother comes, business will come, isn't this a lice on the monk's head, is it obvious?"

Li Quan glanced at Wang Qingyu again, and said with a smile: "Don't talk about this, let's eat, come! Ah Yan, whisper, a toast for our family reunion." ”
