At night, Li Zhen sat alone under the old locust tree in the courtyard, quietly pondering, although tomorrow was his wedding, but he did not have a little expectation and excitement of marrying a wife in his heart, on the contrary, he still had a trace of confusion in his heart, and he was full of confusion about his future.

The reason why he agreed to the Di family's request to leave the capital was because he knew that Zhang Yizhi's brothers would be in power for many years, and if he was in the capital, he would inevitably become the target of the Zhang brothers' slaughter, and his strength was not enough to confront the Zhang brothers, Di Renjie also saw it, so he persuaded him to go to the local development.

He and Di Renjie reached a consensus on this point, the key is his choice between the Li brothers, although on the surface Li Dan and Li Xian have a very good relationship and join forces to fight against the Wu family, but since Li Zhen found out that the Xingtang Society that appeared in Fangzhou was pretended by Li Dan, he knew that there was also a secret murder between the two brothers, and Li Dan obviously wanted to use the matter of the Xingtang Society to cut off Li Xian's future.

If it weren't for Lai Junchen's great ambition and would wipe out the Li family, the two brothers would definitely have turned their faces, but Li Zhen knew that there was only one throne, and once the Wu family lost and the Li family would return to the throne, the struggle between Li Dan and Li Xian would be inevitable.

At that time, how should he choose between Erli and Li?

In history, it was Li Xian who became the emperor first, but after Li Xian was poisoned by Wei, Li Longji and Princess Taiping joined forces to launch a palace coup, and in the end Li Dan became the emperor.

If he follows history and chooses Li Xian, then he will inevitably be liquidated by Li Dan in the end, but if he supports Li Dan first, but Li Xian and Weishi will not let him go, he knows that Li Xian is actually a very scheming person, and he is ruthless enough.

In fact, Li Zhen marrying Di Yan as his wife is equivalent to standing with Di Renjie politically and choosing to support Li Dan, so will Li Xian be indifferent to his choice?

Li Zhen's heart was full of contradictions and confusion, he wanted to avoid this matter and not think about it, but as the marriage got closer and closer, it meant that his final stand was getting closer and closer, and he had to think about it.

"Ah Zhen!"

The voice of the eldest sister came from outside the courtyard, interrupting his train of thought, Li Zhen stood up, only to see the eldest sister rushing in like a gust of wind, "What's the matter with you?"

Li Quan's face was full of unhappiness, "I'm going to greet my relatives early tomorrow morning, why haven't you done anything?"

"To be ...... What?" Li Zhen looked at his eldest sister in confusion, his thoughts had not yet completely turned away from the worry just now.

"What are you going to do?"

Li Quan crossed his waist, his eyes widened, and he was about to roar, "What about your concubine? You said you came to find it, but where is the person now? And have you tried your auspicious clothes? Xiniang said that you haven't tried anything, how can you go to greet your relatives tomorrow?"

Li Zhen patted his head, he actually forgot about the matter of the prime minister, and he hurriedly said: "I'll go find Jiuzhi now!"

"Nonsense! Jiuzhi is already married, how can he be a concubine? Xiaoxiao can't do it, his appearance is too weak, but fortunately, I have already thought of it for you. ”

Li Quan's tone softened slightly, "I went to find Zhang Li just now, and he promised to be your concubine, you go and try on clothes for me immediately, and you will go immediately." ”

Under the coercion of her eldest sister, Li Zhen had to follow her to the back house quickly......

At the same time that Li Zhen was trying on the wedding clothes in the back house, the prime minister Li Dan was also pacing slowly in the back garden, the eldest son Li Chengqi followed his father, Li Dan walked to an apricot tree and stopped, he stared at the green apricots full of trees for a moment, and asked lightly: "Li Zhen is going to marry Di Xiang's daughter tomorrow!"

"Yes! There will be no more emergencies this time. Li Chengqi replied in a low voice on the side.

Li Dan smiled with his hand, "If he marries Di Xiang's daughter, he should understand his position, and I want to express it well." ”

He turned back to his eldest son and said, "Give him the pair of white jade screens I treasured as a congratulatory gift for my great joy for him." ”

Li Chengqi was taken aback, the pair of white jade screens were given to his father by the emperor's grandfather, they were priceless, and they were one of his father's favorite treasures, and his father actually wanted to give him to Li Zhen, which really surprised Li Chengqi, his father valued Li Zhen too much! But he thought about it, maybe it was for Di Renjie.

"Is my father trying to win over Di Xiangguo?"

"One thing, but not exactly, Li Zhen is a rare talent, he is related to whether I can be successfully restored in the future, before, he has always been biased towards his brother, because of Shangguan Wan'er, but I know that he and Shangguan Wan'er have gradually separated, and now he is married to the daughter of Di Guo, I believe he will slowly stand on my side. ”

Li Dan smiled confidently, and added: "I also believe in Gao Fujun's judgment, marriage is a political union, Li Zhen married Di Xiangguo's daughter, he is not only biased towards the Li family, but will also stand on my side, unless Di Xiangguo no longer supports me." ”

Only then did Li Chengqi understand his father's deep meaning, he pondered for a moment, and then said cautiously: "Will the third uncle attack Li Zhen because of this?"

"Not really!"

Li Dan smiled and said: "After all, the Li family can't fight among themselves for the time being, and I will have a tacit understanding with your third uncle, but ...... It's hard to say later. ”

Speaking of this, Li Dan said to his eldest son: "You go and inquire, what congratulatory gift did your third uncle give when Li Zhen married a wife this time? In addition, tomorrow you will attend Li Zhen's wedding on my behalf." ”

"The child understands!" ......

The sky gradually brightened, the door of Li Zhen's Mansion located in Fushan Fang opened, and the greeting team began to set off in a mighty manner, walking in the front is the rite band, thirty musicians in bright clothes and fat bodies are blowing suona, beating gongs and drums, and the drum music is shaking the sky, attracting a large number of onlookers.

It was followed by a team of more than a dozen internal security soldiers dressed as happy money, carrying more than a dozen baskets of happy money, throwing them along the way, attracting bursts of coaxing from children.

Behind is a wide and gorgeous carriage, draped in red with green, the roof of the car tied with a big red knot, the groom Li Zhen rode in front of the carriage, he wore a double-winged gauze hat, dressed in green and red satin wedding dress, feet wearing black leather boots, and a happy flower on the chest, full of energy and joy.

Beside him is the prime minister Zhang Li, Zhang Li wears similar clothes to Li Zhen, but he does not wear a happy flower, this is the most important difference between the two dresses, and behind the carriage is a retinue carrying various boxes and cages with generous gifts, there are nearly 100 people.

The welcoming team composed of more than 100 people happily walked towards the workshop, and there were more and more onlookers on the street, this kind of welcoming team was extremely common, almost every day, and everyone was commonplace, but Li Zhen's marriage to Di Xiangguo's daughter made everyone very interested, especially Li Zhen's defeat of Lai Junchen, which made countless people grateful to him, and rushed to the street to congratulate him.

"Congratulations to General Lee!" someone shouted.

"Congratulations to General Lee!" the people on both sides smiled and congratulated.

Li Zhen hugged his fists to everyone one by one, expressing his gratitude to everyone, when he walked through an intersection, he saw a carriage parked more than a dozen steps away from the intersection, this carriage made Li Zhen quite familiar, he couldn't help but look at the carriage more, only to see that behind the thin gauze curtain of the window, a pair of eyes full of sadness were silently watching himself.

Li Zhen's heart shook suddenly, he suddenly recognized these beautiful eyes, he was a little stunned, holding the reins, letting the horse lead him forward, he didn't look back, kept looking at the eyes behind the curtain.

At this time, the curtain slowly opened, revealing Wang Qingyu's beautiful eyes full of tears, staring blankly at Li Zhen who was constantly moving away, as if there were a thousand words in the tears, and endless sadness and despair.

Li Zhen followed the greeting team farther and farther away, but kept looking back to this side, and finally his figure gradually disappeared into the street, a string of tears flowed from Wang Qingyu's eyes, across Bai Yu's face, she lowered her head, and pulled up the curtain again, the carriage turned around, and slowly walked towards the city gate......

The Di Mansion of the Xiuye Workshop is also busy, today is the big day of Di Yan's marriage, and the Di Mansion has been busy for a few months, although Di Renjie asked for a simple wedding, but his simplicity is only limited to financial gifts, there must be a process, and things that should be done must be done, all kinds of extremely cumbersome details are indispensable, as well as relatives who came from their hometown and the old ones who came to congratulate them, all of them must be arranged one by one, but these things are handled by Di Renjie's wife.

In a small attic in the house, Di Yan wore a red wedding dress, wearing a phoenix crown, sitting quietly next to the bed, she specially put on makeup, even more gorgeous and charming, her mother also opened for her, from today she will marry a wife, to start a new life, even I don't know if I am ready.

However, she is going to marry her beloved Lang Jun, which makes her feel very happy, thinking of tonight's candle night in the cave room, thinking of the things that her mother told her about the cave room last night, her face felt hot for a while, and her heart was very shy.

"Where's my Yan'er?"

The voice of the old lady came from outside the door, and I saw several maids walking in with the trembling old lady Di, the old lady's health has obviously deteriorated this year, and everyone is very worried about how long she can live, which is also one of the reasons why Di Renjie agreed to Di Yan's marriage.

Di Yan hurriedly got up and stepped forward to support her grandmother, "Why is grandmother here?"

The old lady grinned, "I'll see what the bride and grandchildren look like?"

She took Di Yan's hand and looked it up and down, and nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, it's very beautiful, such a beautiful girl, it's really cheap Li Zhen's young man." ”

"What is grandmother talking about?" Di Yan complained, and lowered her head embarrassedly, she also felt that it was a little cheap, and it seemed that she hadn't agreed to marry him yet, and he was going to come to the door to marry. The old lady smiled and pulled Di Yan to sit down, "Your father talked to you?"

Di Yan nodded, "Daddy told me to take care of myself from now on, don't go out casually, teach my husband and children at home, take good care of the family, and let my husband not worry about family affairs." ”

"Your father is half right, half is wrong, it's right to take care of the house, but it doesn't seem to be the time for your husband and children to teach your children yet, don't go out casually, I think this is a bit too strict, for example, your husband goes to play a polo match, can't you go to see it? Back then, your grandfather took me to the stadium to watch the game, I think it's okay to go out properly, of course, Brother Li is not your father's old-fashioned person. ”

"Thank you grandmother for your concern. Di Yan whispered, she also agreed with her grandmother's point of view, how could she stand being locked in the house all day, she was still in a state of confusion about this question.

At this moment, there was a earth-shattering drum music outside, and Mrs. Di laughed, "Is the welcoming team coming so soon?"
