Chapter 19 Dialects
In the Gaomen Courtyard, the carved building Yuyu, everyone who was originally beaming became silent because of the return of the second lady.
The low pressure of the father and daughter swept through the entire Lifu, and they didn't meet, they didn't ask for peace, anyway, the two of them were angry.
"Second sister, you just give in to your father, he loves you so much, he will definitely forgive you!" Li Chengzhi persuaded Li Ruji that if the two of them continued to make trouble like this, the impact would not be good at all.
Pull the maids back, from yesterday to today, Li Ruxi has not said hello to Li Pingyuan when she comes back.
"What do you know?" Li Ruxi held a book, leisurely, and even recited the words and sentences on it softly.
It seems that the contradictions with Li Pingyuan are all rumored by outsiders, and she is not angry with Li Pingyuan.
"I'm not as smart as your second sister, but it's really wrong for you to do this, Daddy just can't let it go, you just give him a face." Li Chengzhi tried to persuade Li Ruxi, because among the two of them, he knew that Li Pingyuan was more likely to be beaten, and Li Ruxi was here, for the sake of the ladylike image, Li Ruxi generally did not beat people, unless he couldn't help it.
"Then you compensate me for a husband who doesn't dislike me." Li Ruzhi sneered, took the book and knocked Li Chengzhi's head, but he didn't use any force, Li Chengzhi felt great humiliation, and when he saw Li Ruzhi's fist, he still became silent.
"My sister is already an old woman, if she doesn't marry, this life will be over, it's hard to find a man who doesn't dislike her sister, and you still stop it, don't you want me to get married?" Li Ruxi snorted coldly.
"But you can't be a concubine for him, isn't a flat wife a better-sounding concubine? Second sister, you are the queen of the eunuch, or the daughter of the general, marrying someone else as a concubine, do you think your father's face is acceptable. "Knowing with affection, moving with reason, this is his most affectionate and sophisticated time.
“……”
"Second sister, did I say something wrong? Even if he separates from his wife, how can he make you his wife! Li Chengzhi saw that Li Ruji was silent, and he didn't dare to speak.
"No, you're right, it's not like what you said!" Li Ruxi smiled and continued the leisurely posture just now.
"No, second sister, if you listen to a persuasion, he is not willing to marry you as a wife, which means that he doesn't love you either, second sister, why do you have to have a conflict with your father for him." Li Chengzhi was anxious, looking at Li Ruzhi who didn't want to pay attention to him, he was in a hurry.
"I'm designing him all the time, it's weird that he can like me, let alone love, and finally coaxed him to the house with the identity of a life-saving benefactor, if you scare him away with this attitude, I'm the only one who asks."
Li Ruji's apricot eyes narrowed slightly, and Li Chengzhi suddenly became honest, because he was familiar with the second sister's personality and knew that this was the prelude to the second sister's anger.
"I just don't want you and your father to have a conflict because of him, sister, who are you marrying, I don't have any opinion." Li Chengzhi said from the bottom of his heart and retracted the preface.
"So you don't understand, your mother is not panicking, what are you anxious about, don't rush to persuade your father, such an atmosphere is suitable for everyone's identity now, if it is relaxed or released, it is a little inappropriate." Turning the pages slowly, half hinting at the current state.
The father and daughter have not met yet, they have teamed up to create this game, and they accepted it calmly, so maybe Li Pingyuan is really shameless.
But Li Ruxi succumbed, and naturally the marriage with Zhuang Xun ended without a problem, only this stalemate is the most mysterious, everyone knows Li Pingyuan's anger and Li Ruxi's persistence.
Waiting for a game-breaker to break such an impasse made Li Pingyuan unwilling, and had no choice but to agree, so that Li Ruxi's persistence succeeded.
Let everyone know that Li Pingyuan is very angry that his daughter married someone else as a wife, but out of love for his daughter, he can only reluctantly agree.
Instead of making people feel happy, they finally married off the eldest girl in the family, this kind of mentality, this is the best way to keep Li Pingyuan's old face and satisfy Li Ru's good husband.
Li's mother Zhu already understood and let this situation ferment, but Li Chengzhi didn't understand the situation and came to persuade Li Ruji.
The game-breaker can only be Zhuang Xun, Li Ruxi is satisfied with him, he said that he will come to the door to propose, Li Pingyuan and Zhu will grasp the measure, Li Ruxi will also secretly save the emergency, and finally Li Pingyuan has no choice but to accept the facts after making it difficult.
Seeing that Li Chengzhi confessed, Li Ruji's mood was better, this brainless brother said some big things today, although it didn't fit the atmosphere at the moment.
"Second sister, what kind of good man are you, you want to get up? You're the general's daughter. Li Chengzhi is still a little unwilling, imagine that his sister marries someone else to be small, and his blood pressure will go up, not to mention that the status of the two sides is still very different.
"Look down on my future husband, you don't look at yourself, you are still a guerrilla general, Zhuang Lang is already a single leader." Li Ruzhi said with a blow.
"Not soon, at least it has to be a Zhennan general, this time I led the troops to recapture Chengdieguan." Li Chengzhi said proudly.
"You beat Taifu and Yushi's son, do you still want to be promoted? If you don't masturbate you on the spot, it can be regarded as looking at Daddy, who has made outstanding achievements. Li Ruzhi unceremoniously took Li Chengzhi's short words.
"But it's really cool, next time if there is this kind of military merit to change people, I will change it!" Speaking of these beating deeds, Li Chengzhi said a little complacently.
"You, you still want to compare with my future husband, your temperament is tens of millions worse." Li Ruxi regretted comparing Zhuang Xun with him, and the identities of these two people could be changed to match each other's personalities.
"Heh, isn't it just good luck, I became the inspector of the imperial history before I made an inch, and I watched Yu Guo finish." Li Chengzhi was not convinced, and there were few people who could be convinced by Zhuang Xun's experience.
What he said is right, Yu Guo is about to end, so there is such a special case, just imagine, in a normal country, there will be no such rapid promotion.
The greatest grace may be that Zhuang Xun received the right envoy of the festival, and then went to the place to experience a few years, learn from the world, exercise the ability to be an official, and then say something else.
But King Yu knew that the Yu Kingdom was going to end, and these sons didn't say anything else, and they all looked like human kings and didn't like people, and he wondered if he had created too many sins, and he could be so similar to himself who was lying down and enjoying himself.
Because of the turmoil in the country, I thought of giving Zhuang Xun a power to protect himself in the troubled times, and the two roads of Jiannan in Hebei Province have the ability to watch the fire from the other side, which can be regarded as King Yu's care and maintenance of those who are recognized by the national teacher.
"You are not unlucky, stand up to our father, otherwise, with your communication skills, you can get a guerrilla general, and you can have a chance to be an ambush to cut off the back road of Youguo?" If you want to talk about luck, Li Ruxi will not be sleepy.
Zhuang Xun can live until now, it is considered to have brushed shoulders with death twice, if there is no himself, the consequences are unimaginable, compared to his younger brother is supported all the way.
"This can be the same, if you want to say this, he is still the illegitimate son of King Yu, and it is normal that I can't fight him." Li Chengzhi said sharply.
"If he is the illegitimate son of King Yu, I am also a prince concubine, and it doesn't seem that being a prince's side concubine will not insult me much." Li Ruji followed Li Chengzhi's words and refuted him with a smile.
"It's not him, it's not a prince, it's just that he's made an official, and the speed is a little unusual." Li Chengzhi was embarrassed and forcibly explained.
"Do you want to listen to what you say, he was promoted quickly as an illegitimate child, and when you discussed an illegitimate child, you said that he was just promoted a little faster. Besides, the eldest sister is a concubine, do you think it is insulting to her? Insulting our family? Li Ruji picked on the loophole in Li Chengzhi's words.
"This, this...... It's okay if you are more than Zhuang Xun as a prince, how can you compare him to the emperor ......" Li Chengzhi stuttered a little, and Li Ruzhi dared to say it too much, but fortunately there was no maid.
"Not now, not necessarily in the future, Yu Country is about to enter the rebellion of seizing the heir, Zhuang Lang has a place, why not compete for the throne of Yu State!" Li Ruxi put down the book in her hand.
"You, do you really regard him as the illegitimate son of King Yu?" Li Chengzhi couldn't accept it for a while, and his mind hadn't turned around yet.
"Yes and what, if the husband who marries does not match my identity, then let him meet the identity, because she is my husband of Li Ruxi, if Zhuang Lang is Yu Jun, today I am just a fly and a fly who laughs at me as a side room." Li Ruxi made no secret of her ambitions in front of her younger brother.
"I'm going to tell Daddy!" Li Chengzhi felt Li Ruji's determination, and his face was straight.
"Daddy can't stop me, even if I don't agree, I have to go with Zhuang Lang, and no one can change it." Li Ruxi has made the most important decision in her life, and she will not regret it, from the conversation between Zhuang Xun and He Jung, who basically did not hide from her, she can faintly feel Zhuang Xun's ambition.
"Who said I'm going to let Daddy stop you! I'm going to persuade my father to agree, don't you use his status as a general to help my brother-in-law? After all, Jiannan Dao is already a rotten land now. ”
“?” Why did your brother-in-law shout, I haven't married yet.
Compared with the dialogue between the sisters and brothers of the Li family, the argument in the court is much more cruel, there is no national interest, only private feelings.
Getting Hebei Province doesn't mean anything to these families, the land of Hebei Province is not fertile, it is far worse than Jiannan Province, as for the pressure of defending against the Youguo, they don't think about it, and isn't it better to rot the land? Just go to the enclosure site.
Naturally, the officials representing the various families supported the capture of Jiannan Province, completely forgetting their previous attitude of opposing the war one by one.
Now that the spoils of war are harvested, they are all in a hurry, and they have even discussed who should be sent to manage Jiannan Dao.
Of course, the prime minister, who had already been instructed by the emperor, stood still and observed which officials wanted Jiannan Dao the most firmly.
I want part of Hebei Province to come from counties close to Hebei Province, and the second is that I really feel that Hebei Province can stabilize the current situation of the country and consolidate the national defense line.
There are currently three forces in the court, the first is the family headed by the prime minister, which is closer to the royal family, the second is the family of the Qinghe King faction, and then there is the faction of military merits.
King Qinghe is the younger brother of the current King Cheng, who failed to fight for the throne before, but his power is still very large.
Counterintuitively, the upper position that everyone wants to get is to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, which is impossible in Chengguo, because it is said to be the world of the royal family, but in fact it is to rule the world with the family, King Qinghe is probably the emperor's backup option, and he is also an important figure in the family to clamp down on the emperor, plus King Qinghe himself is not a fool, so he naturally accumulates a group of supporters and has a certain right to speak in the court.
"I prefer Hebei, I haven't had the opportunity to get Hebei before, and I don't want to conflict with Yu, but this is the long-cherished wish of this dynasty, to include all the north of the Jizhou River into the country, to eliminate the scourge east of the luxury water, and no longer need to be on two lines of defense, although now it seems that Yu has no ability to do so, but it is a long-term policy to seize Hebei." The prime minister interrupted the discussion of the hundred officials and expressed his opinion.
"Xia Guan also agrees with the Prime Minister's point of view, the place of the four wars in Jiannan Road, the handover of the three kingdoms, although the vitality of Youguo is greatly damaged, it is still eyeing the tiger, taking Jiannan will only consume national strength, Jiannan has just been war, the local can not be self-sufficient, if our country takes over, we will send troops to garrison and defend Youguo, and the grain will be transported across the river every day, over Jiannan Mountain, and the loss will be unimaginable." As soon as the prime minister made a statement, officials from the same faction immediately came out to stand up to him.
"Xia Guan also agreed, didn't Chen Yushi also participate in General Li's book before, accusing him of consuming domestic food and wasting national strength, is it inappropriate to go back on his word now." Personal attacks began, not for people.
"This time is different from the past, not to mention that there is a spiritual pass as a risk, 50,000 garrisons can guard against Youguo, the land of Jiannan, as long as there is a population, it will soon be self-sufficient, but didn't You Shangshu say before that the loss of grain transported by the big river is low?" Chen Yushi naturally couldn't bear the other party's accusations.
"That's true compared to land, but is it needed now? The trouble of the hidden country has been solved, so naturally it cannot be judged by the situation during the war, and now it is necessary to wait for the recovery of Jiannan Dao, there is no ten years that cannot be done, and the money and food consumed in these ten years are not enough to make up for the fifty years of taxation on Jiannan Dao. "You Shangshu is a household book, so the data is detailed, as if it is true.
"The strategic location of Jiannan Province is not comparable to Hebei Province, at present, the chaos of Yu Country is beginning to appear, the princes are competing for the throne, and the country is unstable, it is my opportunity to become a country, and Jiannan Road is like a sword to slash the country left and the right to cut the country of Yu." One general said it was not clear whether he was really motivated by strategic considerations or by self-interest.
"Okay, since you can't argue, then ask the ladies in the palace to make a decision." The prime minister does not say a word, and if this kind of argument is not settled, he will finally ask the emperor to judge.
But the emperor went to cultivate, and this function and responsibility fell into the hands of the empress, but like the emperor, the empress's decision had to be taken into account, taking into account the opinions of the two concubines.
When the prime minister said this, it also means that taking Hebei Province has become a set tone.
Now Concubine Li is also concentrating on cultivation, and her external words are an attempt to attract the emperor's favor, and naturally the weight of the queen of the harem has suppressed another Lin Guifei, and the queen is the daughter of the prime minister.
