Chapter Fifty-Eight: Thirty Hedong
Zhang Xiaopan ran to open the door, and the person who came was He Yuanjun.
He Yuanjun was full of spring breeze, and the servant behind him hugged a can of wine with the word "happy" on it, and walked in when he saw the door opened.
"Sad brother, even if you want to go, you have to participate in my brother's marriage banquet before leaving, this is an invitation, and this wine is a good wine that the old man has treasured for many years, and now it will be given to the sad brother as a happy wine."
After listening to He Yuanjun's words, Li Chou was a little surprised and asked, "What?" Brother has figured it out, when is the marriage set? ”
He Yuanjun said with a smile: "This is a holy decree, how can the old man refuse, besides, the old man has never married in his life, and now it doesn't hurt to marry one, just take this remnant life, the day is set for tomorrow, and I hope that the sad brother will stay for two more days, at least drink the old man's wedding wine before leaving!" ”
"If it's tomorrow, then I'll stay two more days, your brother is my nobleman, this wine should be drunk anyway, this cave room, it stands to reason that there should be a trouble, but I'm worried about this trouble, your brother can't do it anymore, after all, he's old." After Li Chouxin finished speaking, several girls beside him laughed out loud, and a person of He Yuanjun's age was also red-faced.
"Hugh wants to make fun of the old man, don't look at the old man's age, this body is very tough." He Yuanjun said with some embarrassment.
"I know, brother, you should be old and strong, and tomorrow you will be worried."
Hearing Li Chouxin's agreement, He Yuanjun was also happy, and said while going out: "You must come tomorrow, Lao He, I will wait for you at the house." ”
Several people looked at He Yuanjun's radiant appearance, and they all smiled happily, watching He Yuanjun leave in a hurry.
"Brother Sorrowful, since you're going to drink the wedding wine tomorrow, take us with you, after all, this is also the last two days we have come to Xijing." Qin Yin said.
"Naturally, I originally planned to take you with me, since I won't leave today, then you go to the street to buy two new clothes, and you can win glory for me at the banquet tomorrow!" After Li Chouxin finished speaking, several girls were very happy.
After a few people packed up their things, they walked towards the street, and took Zhang Xiaopan with them, Ling'er and Zhang Xiaopan followed behind, constantly fighting, but Li Chouxin stayed in the yard, looking around the courtyard where he had lived for a long time, his eyes were full of nostalgia.
Thousands of miles of dust and fame,
Qingyun is only in the evening.
Waving his hand to the end of the world,
Yes and no, princely and non-princely are all in the wind.
Li Chou sighed, got up and walked to the door, looked at the bustling Kyoto in front of him, and sighed that everything was just a moment.
In Jinyang City, the news of Li Ke's title to the king also spread throughout the city.
The most uncomfortable is the Tian family.
Tian Sanqian sat in the hall with a distorted face, while Tian Fengxiao and Tian Yong walked anxiously in front of him.
"Dad, you said it wouldn't be true, would you?" Tian Yong asked towards Tian Sanqian.
Tian Sanqian said impatiently: "Bastard, don't ask me this question again, isn't it obvious enough, it's a list issued by the government, is there still a fake?" ”
"Dad, then this Li Ke won't retaliate against our Tian family, right?" Tian Yong continued to ask.
"That's all I was worried about for my father, we treated him like that and persecuted the Li family, which led to him being expelled from the house, but now it's good, he has become a prince, if he is to blame, how can my Tian family afford it."
And Tian Fengxiao felt that he was blind, and his heart was even more miserable, if he hadn't been ugly for Li Ke on the street, he insisted on getting out of the marriage, and now he would be a princess. As he walked back and forth, he sighed with a wrinkled brow.
"And you! If it weren't for the fact that I had to withdraw from the marriage at the beginning, how could my Tian family end up where it is today, even if Li Ke didn't make trouble with my Tian family, my Tian family would have become a joke in Jinyang. Tian Sanqian turned his gaze to Tian Fengxiao.
"Dad, don't talk about me anymore, it wasn't my fault alone, but now it's okay, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, people have become princes, and you blame your daughter for all this crime." Tian Fengxiao replied a little angrily.
Tian Yong looked at his father and sister who were facing each other, and said, "Okay, okay, now is not the time to discuss this, the child thinks that now he should think about how to curry favor with the Li family, and if possible, it is better to resume the marriage contract." ”
"Yong'er is right, without further ado, let's go to Li's house! You two will go later, but don't be arrogant anymore. After Tian Sanqian finished speaking, he ordered his subordinates to prepare a bunch of gifts, and took Tian Yong and Tian Fengxiao to Li's house.
In the Li Mansion, Li Tian was also sitting in the hall, and the three aunts chattered around Li Tian.
"Shut up! You losers, get back to my room. Li Tian was really fed up with the noise of several ladies, and shouted angrily.
When a few people saw this Li Tian's appearance, they had no choice but to retreat in a hurry.
"Sir! The Tian family is here. "The butler came to give a notice.
"This Tian Sanqian is a cat in the end, and he came so soon when he smelled the fishy smell!" Li Tian said.
"Master, do you see it or not?"
"See, how can I not see it, my lord, I am worried about the anger I received just now, let them in."
Tian Sanqian and the others came to the hall under the leadership of the housekeeper, Li Tian watched the three of them come with gifts, and he already knew what it meant, and he didn't let people serve them tea.
Tian Sanqian motioned for the two to put down their gifts, and he walked towards Li Tian.
"Master Li, congratulations, Gongzi Ling has now become a celebrity in front of the emperor and has become a prince, and in the future, your Li family will have to flourish in Jinyang City for a hundred years."
Listening to Tian Sanqian's words now, Li Tian couldn't help but feel ridiculous, and the attitude of coming to the Li family to ask for an explanation can be described as one heaven and one underground.
"The head of the Tian family laughed, I don't know what the head of the Tian family is doing here?" Li Tian got straight to the point.
Tian Sanqian smiled embarrassedly and said: "At the beginning, it was my Tian family who had no eyes and had a little conflict with the Li family, but Tian did have something important to discuss with the head of the Li family, I don't know what the head of the family thinks?" ”
"If you have something, just say it, you don't have to go around!"
"It's not a secret, my Tian family offended the prince at the beginning, isn't this afraid that the prince will ask my Tian family when he comes back, so I want to ask the head of the Li family to say something for my Tian family at that time, Tian will definitely be grateful; The second is that if the Li family does not give up and is willing to resume the original marriage contract, and the two families tie the knot, it will naturally be a joy on top of joy, and in the future, the Li Tian family will join forces, and I am afraid that there will be no shopping mall opponents in the entire Nanchuan. Tian Sanqian said.
Li Tian did not answer immediately, and was silent for a moment. Then he said: "The head of the Tian family, if it is the first thing, there is no need to worry about it, although Li Ke was expelled from the house, but this child is honest by nature, he should not worry about the Tian family, even if he comes back in the future, if he wants to ask the Tian family, I can't stop him, and my father, who is Li Ke's grandfather, will also stop him; But this second thing is probably not what Li Tian can do about it, after all, now that he is a prince, family affairs are no longer up to me. ”
Tian Sanqian hurriedly said, "Master Li, isn't there room for maneuver?" ”
Li Tian paused and said: "Master of the Tian family, let's tell you the truth, the original marriage with your Tian family was just for the cooperation of the two families, and your Tian family knew that they were engaged, why did they still let the eldest lady mess with those men, like this woman with bad conduct will not want it even if she wants me to see it now, not to mention that Li Ke is no longer the original Li Ke, since he didn't look down on it at the beginning, it is even more impossible to look down on it now." ”
"Hey! You old man, what do you say about my sister? No matter how bad my sister is, she is also one of the best beauties in Jinyang City, and it is normal to have more friends of the opposite sex, and aside from these, as the eldest lady of the Tian family, there are more people who are vying to marry my sister. Tian Yong said dissatisfied.
Tian Sanqian glared at Tian Yong angrily and shouted: "Bastard, shut up Lao Tzu!" ”
Li Tian looked at this scene, and the anger in his heart also disappeared a lot, thinking about how the Tian family came to the Li family to persecute Li Ke, how it was unstoppable, and today he said this Miss Tian family, this Tian family didn't dare to refute and endured it, it was really ridiculous.
"Master Tian, don't think in vain, now I Li Tian said it doesn't count, after all, Li Ke has been expelled from the house, even I, Li Tian, want to enter his palace is extremely difficult, in the entire Li family, only the father and Li Ke's mother, scholar Linji can live in the palace with Li Ke's light, no matter how much it is, it will be in vain."
After listening to Li Tian's words, Tian Sanqian said: "It's not right for the head of the Li family to say this, no matter how you say that you are also his father, the prince is only angry for a while at most, how can he not recognize you, I think the head of the Li family is too worried." ”
Li Tian waved his hand and said, "That's it, leave with your gift, my situation at this moment is not much different from your Tian family, so let's stop this matter." ”
"Uncle Li, is it really impossible for me and Li Ke?" Tian Fengxiao asked unwillingly.
"Uncle Lee? Did I hear me right? This must be the first time you've called me that, right? I really don't feel used to it, you better go back, since you call me Uncle Li, then I will give you four words, that is, 'clean yourself'. ”
After Li Tian finished speaking, the Tian family's face became even more ugly, although this was a well-intentioned persuasion, but in fact it was really insulting to the Tian family, but at this time, the three of them dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, no matter how to say that although Li Ke had been expelled from the house, Li Tian was Li Ke's father, which was an indelible fact no matter what.
But the Tian family also knew that if they continued to entangle, it would not be boring for themselves.
"In this case, Master Li, Tian will leave, but I still ask the Master Li to think about it carefully." Tian Sanqian said.
Li Tian smiled and said, "Resign yourself to fate!" ”
Tian Sanqian left the Li family with his two unsuccessful children in a disgraced manner, and kept preaching and teaching the two behind him along the way, and the two of them were also aggrieved, and they didn't know where to go to confide.
Everyone on the street saw that the three of them were deflated at Li's house, and they pointed at the few people.
"This Tian family is really wronged, at the beginning, he quit the marriage on the street and forced Li Gongzi away, but now he has changed his identity, who is really forgiven by God."
"As the saying goes, thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, don't bully young people to be poor! It seems that God is honest and does not deceive me. ”
"It's all about making people, but it's really relieving to look at."
The three of them were fed up with pointing on the street, and they walked faster and faster with their heads between their heads with gifts, and when they stayed for a moment, they felt that one person could drown several people with a mouthful of foam.
The next day, a group of skilled craftsmen came to the Ministry of Industry to start the construction of the palace in Jinyang, and the whole Jinyang began to boil again.
At this rate, it won't be long before this magnificent palace can be completed.
And Li Chouxin also went to He Yuanjun's house in Kyoto as agreed.
The three girls were dressed elegantly and neatly, without losing their style, and followed behind Li Chouxin, which attracted praise from those present.
Zhang Xiaopan found a place by himself and began to eat and drink.
"The emperor has arrived!" Eunuch Zheng's familiar voice came from outside the door.
I saw Li Zhun walking in with Eunuch Zheng, who was still holding a box of congratulatory gifts from the emperor.
When everyone saw the emperor in person, they knelt down to greet him.
"Zhong Aiqing doesn't need to be polite, today is Dr. He's wedding, and they are all here to drink the wedding wine, so it's good for everyone to be casual." Li Zhun said.
Li Zhun saw the beautiful woman behind Li Chouxin, stepped forward and said: "I said how could Li Aiqing be so resolute and want to resign and leave, it turns out that he is accompanied by such beauties, it is really envious, envious." ”
Li Chouxin was said by the emperor to be obsessed with women, so he said: "Thank you to the emperor, I just don't want to be burdened by these complicated things, so I chose this way, by the way, why did the emperor have time to leave the palace today?" ”
Li Zhun smiled and said: "Is it only for you to be lively, do I have to hold back in the palace?" Besides, I am a witness to He Lao's marriage, so I can't do it if I don't come. ”
At this time, He Yuanjun hurriedly ran out in red clothes, and was about to kneel, but was stopped by Li Zhun.
"He Lao, today's wedding, there is no need to be polite, what about the bride? Why haven't you come out of the church yet? ”
He Yuanjun couldn't hide his joy and said, "Just come, just come!" ”
In the noise of everyone, the maid helped the county lord of Sang Yu out of a room, everyone looked at it, they were envious, even if it was covered with a red hijab, it could be seen from the figure that this county lord of Sang Yu was also a peerless beauty.
"Old He, the time has come, go to the church, don't delay drinking the wedding wine!" Eunuch Zheng said on the side.
Emperor Li Zhun was sitting in the hall, and He Yuanjun timidly stretched out his hand and led Sang Yu over.
Seeing that everything was ready, Zheng Yi began to shout: "The good day has arrived, husband and wife worship the church!" ”
"Worship heaven and earth!" Houhe Yuanjun knelt down and kowtowed to Li Zhun.
"Second worship high hall!" After that, he still kowtowed to Li Zhun.
"Husband and wife worship each other!" At that time, He Yuanjun looked a little embarrassed, so he asked Sang Yu: "County Lord, are you really willing to marry my bad old man?" ”
I saw Sang Yu nodded, and Eunuch Zheng continued to shout: "Husband and wife worship each other!" ”
He Yuanjun gradually let go of his burden at this time and bowed to Sang Yu.
"Licheng! Send it to the cave room! ”
After Eunuch Zheng finished speaking, everyone present laughed.
Li Zhun also changed his serious appearance and said: "Old He, you old husband and young wife, you should be more leisurely later, the days will be long in the future, don't fold." ”
When He Yuanjun heard this, he smiled embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, rest assured!" The old minister will certainly live up to the grace of God. ”
At this time, the people next to him also began to be restless, and someone asked, "Old He, are you okay?" ”
He Yuanjun said: "Go, go!" It's all nonsense! and your bars. ”
This came and went, and everyone laughed again.
After He Yuanjun and Sang Yu returned to the room, everyone began to drink seriously.
But after a while, He Yuanjun and Sang Yu walked out of the room again, but at this time, they had already removed their hijabs.
The two walked towards the table of Li Zhun and Li Chouxin, but Sang Yu kept his eyes fixed on Li Chouxin.
"Old He, why didn't you come out of the cave room? Isn't there a weak heart? Li Zhun teased.
He Yuanjun hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't make fun of the old minister, but the insider said that this time it was thanks to His Majesty and the sad brother, which made Dongyi save the day, so I came out to thank you." ”
"I see!"
Sang Yu picked up a glass of wine and said to Li Zhun: "Your Majesty, thank you for your grace this time, which saved my father's life and exempted the suffering of the people of Dongyi. ”
Hearing this, Li Zhun was also full of relief, raised his wine glass and took a drink, and said: "Lord Sangyu, we will be a family in the future, and I hope you will take good care of our Lord He." ”
Sang Yu nodded, poured another glass of wine and came towards Li Chouxin.
"Sorrowful son, I heard that you are leaving Xijing, so Sang Yu will definitely have a drink with you, if it weren't for you, there would be no Sang Yu today, all this thanks to Sorrowful Son, Sang Yu will definitely remember you." After that, he drank a glass of wine, and stared at Li Chouxin with both eyes.
Li Chouxin naturally knew what Sang Yu meant, this was blaming himself, not so much remembering himself, but hating himself. So he picked up the wine glass and said: "The lord of Sangyu County is serious, since he has now become Brother He's wife, don't say any words of thanks, this cup can be regarded as a sad reparation." ”
Sang Yu saw that Li Chouxin drank a cup, and he didn't face himself from beginning to end, he was even more depressed in his heart, and then picked up a cup and said: "This cup is also a tribute to the sorrowful son, it can be regarded as a farewell for our husband and wife!" ”
When He Yuanjun heard this, he also picked up his wine glass and came up.
Seeing this, Li Chou stood up with a cup and said, "That is the case, this cup of sorrow still has to be drunk, Brother He, Mrs. Sister-in-law, this farewell, take care of your body!" ”
After speaking, the three of them drank the wine.
Seeing that Sang Yu was still unrelenting, Li Chou said: "Brother He, Mrs. Sister-in-law, today's wedding, it is better to drink less, the province missed the candle night in the cave room, you Brother He is happy to be old, and you must cherish this moment." ”
When everyone heard what Li Chou said, they also echoed it.
"Yes, yes, yes! He Lao, we all know that you love wine, but today the cave house is the big deal! ”
"Old He, don't drink and make mistakes, it will be troublesome if you make your sister-in-law unhappy."
Listening to the persuasion of everyone, He Yuanjun pulled Sang Yu into the cave room under the support of a group of people.
And Li Chouxin looked at the crowd, with a smile on his face, and took a glass of wine to drink, and this cup can be regarded as a real farewell.
