Li Xiu was stunned for a moment, then turned around and said word by word in a calm tone: "What did you just say?" Dare to say it again. ”

"I don't want to get involved." Xue Bai's tone was calm, "Therefore, I went to Mrs. Qiuguo's mansion to offer stir-fried vegetables, hoping that she could ask for an official position for me, so that I could be worthy of the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”

He refused to serve Yang Yuyao the night before and stood in the courtyard, and he had been teaching Deng Lian to stir-fry last night, which was seen by many slaves and maids.

Yang Yuyao does not strictly govern the slaves and maids in the house like Li Linfu, so that rumors about her are flying all over the sky, such as the little monkey she raised has become a beautiful man, and she doesn't care...... In short, Xue Bai believed that the Right Prime Minister's Mansion would definitely be able to inquire.

Then since he didn't take that step, he wouldn't have been killed.

Li Xiu thought he should be furious, but he didn't. On the contrary, he finally understood Xue Bai a little bit.

are all men with hearts, who wants to send people to live under the fence and in their nests?

This thought just came to mind, and Li Xiu still felt that the right prime minister's mansion was extraordinary, not comparable to other families, and Xue Bai was too ignorant of lifting.

"Stupid!"

Li Xiu raised his hand and scolded: "You think you are Li Taibai, and someone can recommend you to worship Hanlin?" How old are you, and what is your reputation? You know, what I've done for you is the best arrangement. ”

"Maybe I'm arrogant." Xue Bai said: "To tell you the truth, I can say to Shilang, what I can do for the Prime Minister's Mansion is far more than just becoming the Prime Minister's son-in-law. ”

"Proud, before setbacks, everyone is pretentious." Li Xiu said lightly: "The Right Prime Minister's Mansion is not a place where you can bargain. ”

Xue Bai is here to bargain.

He believes that whether a political marriage can be successful depends on the assessment of each party's value.

In his opinion, he really thinks that Li Linfu is not a good marriage partner.

The prime ministers of several dynasties, regardless of loyalty and talent, are known for being jealous and jealous of their abilities and suppressing their subordinates, I am afraid that no one can be on the right side of Li Linfu. Take down the subordinates at every turn, and stare at who is too good every day, which may threaten the phase.

In the eyes of the saint, this is not the best courtier, I don't know, but it is certainly the worst boss.

Besides, does Li Linfu have a political legacy?

There must be a lot of ...... Raids, exiles, and beheadings.

Of course, on the way to progress, we must not take the initiative to block any road, the more difficult the road, the more likely it is to be a shortcut. Xue Bai believes that it still depends on Li Linfu's sincerity.

Talk, fight, unscrupulous.

He wants a lot, and he has to lead others to compete and let the Right Prime Minister realize his value.

"I know that Shiro doesn't believe in my talent, so I went to Mrs. Yuguo's mansion and took advantage of the situation to open a restaurant. Xue Bai said: "I can afford the dowry of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion." ”

Li Xiu's face sank, and she suddenly felt pressure.

Originally, he sincerely thought that Xue Bai was only worthy of being the prime minister's son-in-law, but now the situation seems to be different.

~~

Behind the screen, a stool fell, and a fan fell on the ground.

After Li Qiniang ran away, Jiaonu sat there and listened for a while before turning to the backyard.

Skirting the courtyard, in front of an exquisite flower pavilion, Mian'er was sitting on the steps, supporting her little head with her hands and a dejected expression.

The two talked in a whisper, and Kyauknu ascended the Flower Pavilion.

There was a woman standing on the railing, wearing a plain and clean white skirt, and her figure was a little petite.

"Seventeen Niang." Kyauknu whispered.

Li Tengkong turned around.

Wait a few days for the New Year, she is only sixteen years old, it is twenty-eight years old, with white jade flawless girl skin, her face is slightly thin, and her beauty is dusty, and she looks like no one is close.

Unlike other women who often tie their skirts above the neck and chest, she is different, the belt is tied around the waist, outlining the slender waist, which makes her lose some plump beauty and more cold.

Her hairstyle is also different from that of ordinary women, her thick and jet-black hair is pulled up, and her crown like lotus petals circles around her bun, like lotus flowers.

It is difficult for anyone to think that the spirited Li Linfu has such a fairy daughter.

At this time, her expression was slightly lonely, but her eyes were very stubborn, she flattened her mouth, and said: "Don't persuade me anymore, I won't marry, if the family can't accommodate the old girl in the future, I will become a Taoist priest." ”

"Seventeen Niang, don't worry, it's not what you think......"

"If he doesn't want to marry, what else can he be?" Li Tengkong said, "I know what you're worried about. Peace of mind, I won't send you back to Grandpa, I'll take you to the Taoist temple, okay? ”

"Slaves are not for this."

Kyauknu was unscathing in front of Li Tengkong, and even a little panicked.

Previously, she worked hard, but she couldn't get rid of her lowly status. Or because Li Qiniang wanted to summon her for questioning, so she asked her to come to her side, although she just recounted normally when she replied, but in the ears of others, she seemed to have been praising Xue Bai vigorously, if this marriage failed, she would inevitably be punished again.

"Seventeen Niang, Xue Bai is not unwilling to marry Seventeen Niang, but unwilling to get involved."

Li Tengkong was slightly stunned, as if he hesitated between cultivating or marrying that person, pursed his lips slightly, "um", raised his beautiful eyes and asked briskly.

"Really?"

"Absolutely."

"And he would like to marry?"

At this time, Li Xiu boarded the Flower Pavilion and replied, "Really." His tone was still very crazy, and he said that he could afford the dowry of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

Although Li Teng's air quality is immortal, after all, it is a girl's feelings, and he was a little shy when he heard the words, so he couldn't help but turn his back.

"I don't want to get married, my father and brother have to work hard to force each other."

"It's always going to get married. Seventeen Niang has a good eye, if you talk about him alone, he is indeed more talented than I expected. Li Xiu stood by the railing and said about Xue Bai's restaurant.

"In this way, he went to the Lady of the Kingdom of Qiu for this purpose...... And what about him...... He...... He's got to do with ......."

"Nope." Li Xiu said: "He rejected Mrs. Qiuguo, I asked people to check, the slaves and maids of Mrs. Qiuguo's mansion were all talking, Xue Bai refused to serve and stood in the snow for a long time." He also wrote a poem that he regarded himself as a prime minister, which is very good......"

Li Tengkong lowered his head and whispered: "What he said is that 'hate' is not when you are not married." ”

"Say nice things so as not to offend anyone."

"The poem is well written, but unfortunately it is not complete."

"I'm not here to praise him." Li Xiu said softly: "He knows how to be flexible, as long as Grandpa personally teaches him to be sensible, you don't have to be unhappy because of this, understand?" ”

Why teach him? Men are ambitious, and they don't want to be rich. Li Tengkong said, "Brother might as well help him and let him not get into trouble, okay?" ”

She said not to get involved, but she didn't mean that she didn't want this marriage.

Li Xiu still understood this, and sighed: "I know that you will be so soft-hearted, it is really unnecessary." Don't mention the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, just say that if he sees you with his own eyes, it turns out that he is so talented and beautiful, and his temperament is the best one, he must be willing to join the ......"

"Nope. I didn't understand it before, but after thinking about it today, I realized that I didn't want a son-in-law. If I marry, I should marry a big husband who can support the door. ”

"His family must not be high, how can there be a high-ranking family who has lost his son for so many days and has not looked for it?"

"No matter what, there are thousands of choices, only this one person is detached, why bother to force him to compromise? If my father and brother want a son-in-law who is submissive, my father and brother will marry, and I will not marry. ”

Li Xiu was stunned when she heard this.

His gaze fell, and it was rare to see a slight flush on his sister's cheeks.

She has always had a very high vision, and when she looked at her son-in-law's window, no one had ever been able to enter her eyes, but she said in private, "That Xue Bai is not good, his temperament is detached, he has his own style, and he has never seen such a character." ”

Although Li Xiu couldn't see how good Xue Bai was, she knew that if she missed this time, Seventeen Niang would never marry again.

"Alas, I can't help you."

He sighed and walked away reluctantly.

Li Tengkong looked back, knowing that Brother would find a way, and smiled proudly.

She thought about what her brother said, "If he has seen you", and her heart moved, and she beckoned the slave and said it in a low voice.

"That's it, I can go to enjoy the lanterns on the Shangyuan Festival, I can accidentally meet him, you can arrange it......"

Later, Shangyuan's lights, handsome boys, and fantasies about the future added a little brightness to the girl's eyes.

Kyauknu listened, but only thought that this was how the Wei Jian case happened.

~~

Xue Bai heard Li Xiu say, "Someone has a gift for you to bring back", and waited for a while, but saw that it was Kyauknu who came out with a large package.

"What is this?"

"The day before yesterday, Shiro cut a new coat and cut one for you." Kyaunu said, "I'll bring it to you." ”

"Juro takes care of me too much."

As a result, Kyauknu followed Xue Bai again, as if to take care of him, the son-in-law of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, so as not to be robbed by anyone.

Xue Bai didn't complain, being able to be monitored showed that he was still valuable, otherwise the Right Prime Minister's Mansion would have slaughtered him with one sword.

Now that the restaurant has opened, its strength will naturally grow slowly, and he is no longer in a hurry.

Next, be sure to live in peace, the fight between the DPRK and China is fierce, and the more you dance at this time, the faster you die.

When I walked to the front yard, I met many officials who had entered the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, and the first person wearing a crimson official robe was Yang Shenjin.

Behind Yang Shenjin were a group of his subordinates in Yushitai, including Wang Ji and Luo Xizao, who seemed to be going to war, so imposing.

Xue Bai ducked to the side, looked at Pei Mian at the back of the crowd.

He smiled politely, like a greeting, greeting everyone.

Pei Mian acted as if he didn't see him, and followed behind Wang Ji without squinting.

The officials walked by, and Xue Bai planned to leave.

"Xue Bai."

Yang Shenjin turned around and called.

Shi Luxuan, who was walking behind him, didn't know that he would suddenly stop, and just bumped into him, and was glared at by him.

Xue Bai's face was calm, and he saluted with a straight look: "Yang Zhongcheng is polite, I don't know what's going on?" ”

In plain sight, he didn't intend to let anyone find fault with him.

Yang Shenjin had a righteous face and an awe-inspiring tone, and said, "I personally interrogated Ji Wen last night and found important testimony that was ignored by others and related to you. ”

For a moment, everyone was stunned.

Luo Xixiao secretly hated in his heart, because he was the "outsider" who ignored important testimony in Yang Shenjin's mouth.

Pei Mian's eyes were full of waves, and he was already suspicious in his heart, he boasted that he wanted to kill Xue Bai more than anyone else, but now he was still patient, but why did Yang Shenjin suddenly make a move? At this time......

"Since this is the case, I will definitely cooperate with the investigation." Xue Bai responded.

"Tomorrow at noon, go to the Yushitai for questioning."

Yang Shenjin's face was unfathomable, and he turned his back on his hands and left.

A group of officials behind him followed.

Among them, Shi Luxuan, the attendant, recalled the scene just now, and his brows furrowed deeply.

Today, Yang Zhongcheng not only summoned Xue Bai to inquire, but also recruited Yang Zhao...... Both of them are people who have a personal grudge against Yang Zhongcheng and have a personal grudge against Yang Zhongcheng in the wind and rain in Chang'an City now.

In the eyes of people like Lu Xuan, who have finally advanced to the position with power, under the current situation, anyone who knows the mood of the right minister should not make any extraneous branches.

Yang Zhongcheng's political achievements were extremely outstanding, and when he inherited his father's position and was in charge of the revenue and expenditure of Taifu, the collection and allocation of prefectures and counties were never cut off. It is not a stupid person to have such a talent.

Then why do you have to act like this, can't you endure personal grudges for the time being?

What does it mean?

"I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out......"

~~

Xue Bai walked out of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, his face was still very calm, but he kept thinking in his head.

He could imagine that Givin must have confessed a lot in that prison.

Under severe punishment, he cooperated and admitted to colluding with the East Palace and harboring the dead, but he must have said a lot about him.

"Xue Bai, it's this kid, I found out that he is the son of the traitor Xue Rust, so he killed people and killed his mouth......"
