Li Linfu just felt dizzy and was being supported by someone. In this situation, he did not rest, but scanned the crowd, looking for Anqing Zong.
An Qingzong hadn't noticed the movement on his side, and was walking towards Li Heng, humbly toasting a glass of wine.
At this moment, Li Tengkong came over to support Li Linfu.
"Grandpa, are you going back home?"
"Ahem...are you Princess Hezheng?" Li Linfu asked.
"Yes." Li Tengkong understood her grandfather's unprovoked question and advised, "Let's go back."
Li Linfu shook off her support and said, "Why are you so anxious? Are you afraid that your father will ruin Xue Bai's marriage? Cough cough cough."
This burst of violent coughing attracted more people's attention. Many people heard such remarks and murmured again, secretly thinking that the right prime minister actually lost face because of Xue Bai's marriage.
Li Linfu knew what these people were talking about, so he did not explain. Instead, he whispered to Li Tengkong, saying, "As a father, I want to talk to Xue Bai again."
"Now?"
Li Tengkong was surprised. He turned around and saw that Xue Bai and Yan Yan were performing the same prison ceremony, which was to eat a piece of meat together to signify the beginning of living together.
She then responded: "Let's talk about it next time? The princess won't marry immediately..."
"Let's talk today." Li Linfu looked very stubborn and said, "Now that I'm here, I won't leave until I have a clear talk with Xue Bai."
Li Xiu also felt embarrassed and tried to persuade Li Linfu to go back home first, but she didn't know why he went crazy today. He insisted on seeing Xue Bai now, but he couldn't persuade him.
In the end, Li Linfu even glared at Li Xiu angrily and shouted: "I must see Xue Bai!"
…
Xue Bai heard the movement among the guests and glanced over there. In this moment, Yan Yan took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and stretched out her chopsticks to pick up another piece of meat.
"Can't eat any more."
"All right."
At this time, they have completed the worship ceremony, Wo wash ceremony, Que fan ceremony and Tonglao ceremony. Next is the He Ni ceremony, which means peeling open a gourd and pouring wine. The husband and wife each drink half, exchange and drink again. leftover.
"Don't get drunk." Yan Yan shot back at Xue Bai.
"It's within my drinking capacity."
Normally, newlyweds can't keep chatting like they do at a wedding, but they can't help but whisper secretly to each other like this. The wedding guests can do nothing to them and just pretend they don't hear them.
Xue Bai picked up the half of the gourd and drank it. It was rice wine, quite sweet, but the portion was quite large.
Finally, he stopped after drinking half of the drink and exchanged it with Yan Yan. The half that was about to be taken from her hand was stunned for a moment, turned to look at her, and asked with his eyes: "How many are left?"
Yan Yan smiled, both naughty and a little embarrassed.
"I can't drink anymore."
Xue Bai had no choice but to drink the remaining wine. He felt a little confused. When he looked at it again, Yan Yan's whole face turned red.
He suspected that he was drunk, so he saw that her head was swaying from side to side, but the things around her were not swaying at all.
"You can't drink any worse than me, right?" Xue Bai waved his hand in front of Yan Yan.
"whispering sound."
"Groom, please stop making trouble and tie the melon with the bride."
Yan Yan was obviously a little confused. She was holding the red thread and waving her hands around. Xue Bai then took her hand and tied the gourd together with the red thread to show that the couple would never be separated.
Then comes the hair-tying ceremony. Xue Bai needs to first take off the wedding tassel on Yan Yan's head, and then both parties cut a lock of each other's hair, roll it into a "joint bun", put it into the brocade bag, and tie the strands of silk to show To tie the knot.
During the process, Xue Bai's peripheral vision had already caught a glimpse of the commotion among the guests, especially Li Xiu, who even squeezed through the crowd and stood in the front, looking like he was hesitant to speak.
He ignored it.
Although Xue Bai is determined to make progress, he is not always thinking about fighting for power. At the moment, he only thinks about getting married.
After all the red tape was over, Xue Bai and Yan Yan bowed to each other again. Yan Yan was probably really drunk and knocked Xue Bai's head, which was quite painful. They both endured it, and then entered the green house and sat down, men on the right and women on the left.
"Spread the bill money!"
A group of wedding women each came out holding a big basket and began to scatter money, one string of ten coins each, tied with colorful strips and wrote "long life and wealth".
The guests in Xue's house are all wealthy people. They don't care about money, they just want to be happy. Distributing money outside the house caused a situation where everyone was empty... What Xue Bai was very ashamed of was that the money came from Mrs. Guo's house. Yang Yuyao was a very honorable person, and she did it in an extremely extravagant way. She wished she could give it to the whole city of Chang'an. Everyone is given this bill money.
Probably to prove her innocence with Xue Bai siblings.
"It's done!"
In Xue's house, with these words, the guests sat down again and began to have dinner, and the wine and food began to be served.
In this way, Xue Bai and Yan Yan officially became husband and wife.
"drunk?"
"No." Yan Yan was very tenacious and said, "You go and make a toast. I will wake up after you see off the guests."
As soon as she walked in, she seemed to be the mistress of the house.
Xue Bai sat in Qinglu for a while, but his mood changed subtly.
He no longer cared about the dignitaries who came to the banquet today as he did before, and even thought of sending them away early so that the newlyweds could talk quietly.
After a moment, he reminded himself that Wenwen Township was a grave of heroes, and he still had to make progress.
~~
After leaving Qinglu, there was already a banquet outside.
Yan Zhenqing and Du Youlin were entertaining guests, so Xue Bai walked there, greeting people all the way.
Li Xiu came up from the side and whispered: "My grandpa wants to see you, but Zahu has fallen to the East Palace."
"Why panic?"
"Do you know what Zhang Bian has been doing recently?" Li Xiu grabbed Xue Bai and said, "Zhang Bian hired the old ministers of the East Palace who were exiled, Li Shizhi, Li Qiwu, Fang Guan, Du Hongjian... "
"so what?"
"You have done a terrible job for us." Li Xiu said, "You forced my grandpa to deal with Zahu, but it gave Donggong an opportunity to take advantage of him. Now Donggong, Zhang Bian, and Zahu have joined forces. You said you wanted to win over Wang Zhongsi, but you were nowhere to be seen. Go convince him."
"Don't worry, we can talk about it after we get married."
"At this point, you have to give an explanation."
"Calm down." Xue Bai pushed away Li Xiu's hand holding his sleeve and said, "I said, we will find out after my marriage."
"Why should we trust you? What if your purpose is to remove my grandfather from your position?"
"Cooperating with me is not that simple." Xue Bai said: "At the slightest sign of trouble, you will panic and no longer trust me, so why bother talking more?"
"My grandpa gives you too much face." Li Xiu wanted to say more, "You..."
Xue Bai has walked away.
I met Zhang Bian on the road. Zhang Bian greeted him gracefully and said with a smile, "The groom is here to propose a toast."
"Hong-in-law, wait a moment. I'll toast my husband-in-law first."
"Okay." Zhang Bian asked in a low voice, "Is Li Juro anxious?"
"Make the prince-in-law laugh."
"It doesn't matter." Zhang Bian said, "I know Ge Nu is also trying to win you over, but unfortunately, Ge Nu is narrow-minded."
"Yes, the Prince Consort hit the nail on the head."
Although Xue Bai and Li Linfu have reached a consensus, their cooperation is still not smooth, because the thing that separates him and Li Linfu has never been their positions, but Li Linfu's character.
Everyone is a minister of the Tang Dynasty, and they all oppose Li Heng. There is no big opposition in their positions. Li Linfu's biggest problem was actually jealousy, arrogance, and intolerance. The fundamental reason why he supported An Lushan was to block the way for others to become generals and prime ministers. Xue Bai could change his attitude towards An Lushan, but he could not change his temperament.
Then, if the two parties cooperate, Li Linfu will treat Xue Bai as his subordinate whenever something happens, and he will come and go as soon as he is called, regardless of whether Xue Bai is getting married.
Xue Bai would not let him dictate things, he would do things according to his own rules.
"teacher."
"Still called 'teacher'?"
Xue Bai then picked up a glass of wine, toasted Yan Zhenqing, and said, "My father-in-law."
Yan Zhenqing stroked his beard and smiled, nodded, then his eyes became solemn and he said with a straight face: "If you bully Sanniang, I will never forgive you!"
"Student... my son-in-law doesn't dare."
Du Youlin said: "Now that you have a family and a career, I will ask Taishan to give you a word."
As the saying goes, "a man's twenty-year-old crown is worth his name." After Xue Bai woke up in the snow, he didn't know his birth date. He always followed Du Wulang's calculations. Du Wulang was nineteen years old, so he was nineteen years old.
However, since he has reached the seventh rank of official position and married a wife, he is no longer limited to "twenty crowns and one word".
"Please ask my father-in-law to give me a word."
"Okay." Yan Zhenqing smiled freely and joked to Du Youlin: "This child is busy with things and is too lazy to do the crowning ceremony, so let's give him a title as well."
Everyone who was waiting for the groom to toast gathered around, saving Xue Bai from telling them one by one.
Du Wulang could not help but whisper to Yan Jiming: "I don't even have the words, but who cares?"
Yan Jiming was a little tipsy and no longer as restrained as usual. He smiled and said, "How about I name Wu Lang?"
"Stop taking advantage of me."
Du Wulang shook his head and looked at Yan Zhenqing, fearing that he would really get into trouble if he gave Xue Bai the word "Ping Zhao".
"Do you know what the explanation is for the nine lines in "Bi Gua" saying 'Bai Ben, no fault'?" Yan Zhenqing asked Xue Bai.
"Students don't know."
"Shangjiu is the changed line of the hexagram. It was originally the Tai hexagram ninety-two. The ninety-two ascended and became the upper nine of the Ben hexagram." Yan Zhenqing said: "The way of literary decoration will be exhausted. Get rid of excessive and flashy literary decoration, and return to the original nature. If you advocate simplicity, there will be no harm.”
Xue Bai listened and vaguely felt the deep meaning of Yan Zhenqing's words.
"If we talk about people, if they are decorated plainly, don't show off their power, and keep a low profile, then they will be safe for a long time;"
"If we talk about Sheji, the 'white' is a ray of light for the 'sun', and the lower hexagram of the Bi hexagram is the 'sun'. The upper sun and the lower sun shine together, and the world is white. Therefore, Confucius said in the elephant's mouth, 'The gentleman uses the power of the common people to understand the government.' Only when the country is clear and clear can it achieve long-term governance."
“Students understand.”
Xue Bai believed that Yan Zhenqing's words were not only about him, but also about the extremely prosperous Tang Dynasty. Both he and the Tang Dynasty were at their most gorgeous, and it was also when disaster was approaching. He should remember his true intentions and get rid of the glitz and glamour. Luxury, return to nature.
"Now that I understand, I will give you the word 'No Guilty'."
"Thank you, father-in-law."
Xue Bai responded with a bow, and then he heard someone stroking hands and laughing loudly behind him.
"Xue Wujiu? A gentleman works hard all day long and is vigilant at night. There is no blame. Xue Bai, your father-in-law is reminding you to be more careful in your words and actions."
Everyone looked back at the same time, and for a moment, everyone was stunned.
~~
"Seventeenth Mother, do you trust Xue Bai?"
Li Linfu was still in Xue's house, but because he was tired, Li Tengkong helped him sit down in a veranda room.
His face was ugly, and he said slowly: "Once Zahu marries Donggong, the father will have no way out. He can only put the whole family's life on Xue Bai, but do you think he can be trusted?"
"My daughter believes that...there is no doubt in employing people."
"Ahem, cough, you, a female college student cannot be admitted." Li Linfu said: "You haven't seen the situation clearly today. It's a wedding banquet, but I can see it clearly."
"My daughter has seen clearly." Li Tengkong said: "Zhang Bian has settled all the intertwined forces in the court."
"go on."
"Zhang Bian has won over Chen Xilie, so that he can intervene in the affairs of Zhongshu's family; by winning over Yang Guozhong, he can be involved in the affairs of the Taifu branch, and he can also hook up with Xianyu Zhongtong; as for Bianzhen, he has obtained the support of Ge Shuhan and Zhang Qiqiu; now The Donggong family has already sided with him. Wang Zhongsi is the sworn brother of the crown prince. Coupled with the marriage between Anlushan and Donggong, it can be said that Anlushan has also accepted him. In other words, all parties have a good relationship with Zhang Bian."
"Ahem, cough...what else?"
"My grandfather hoped that Xue Bai could persuade Wang Zhongsi, Yang Guozhong, Ge Shuhan and others to oppose Zhang Bian, but today it seems that Xue Bai failed to do so."
"Shuzi only cares about getting married!" Li Linfu scolded: "He is just lying about the truth, but in fact he is still on Zhang Bian's side. Damn it!"
"My daughter thought he wouldn't do that."
"That's because you've lost your mind!"
Li Tengkong said: "How can I trust my daughter's judgment? It's not because my daughter loves Xue Bai, but because she knows that he will not allow An Lushan to seek the east of the river. At the moment, Zhang Bian is too obedient and has the support of all parties. In other words, We have compromised with all parties, but what Xue Bai wants is that Zhang Bian must not compromise with An Lushan."
"I can't put my only hope in Xue Bai! At least he has to do something."
"What do you want him to do?"
"He wants me to go to the table first to remove An Lushan, and I also want him to fall out with Zhang Bian first." Li Linfu murmured: "He has to impeach Zhang Bian first."
Li Tengkong was stunned.
Although she has been exposed to it since childhood and can understand the current situation, she thinks she does not know much about political affairs. At this time, even she thought Li Linfu's idea was extremely naive... because the right prime minister's proposal to remove Fan Yang, the governor, had completely different meanings than the censor's impeachment of the prime minister.
What Xue Bai asked Li Linfu to do was useful, but what Li Linfu said at this time was more like nonsense.
"Grandpa?"
"Xue Bai should at least bring Wang Zhongsi to see me." Li Linfu murmured, "otherwise he is lying to the truth."
At this moment, Li Xiu came back. When he saw Li Linfu, he was stunned for a moment and asked, "Master, are you okay?"
"How to say it?"
"My child feels... Xue Bai is probably still on Zhang Bian's side." Li Xiu was very uneasy and said: "I finally understand the wedding banquet today, and Zhang Bian has also straightened out the situation. This is exactly what happened." Xue Bai single-handedly facilitated this, so I'm afraid he won't betray Zhang Bian at the last moment."
"Brother, don't forget..."
"Don't say it."
Li Linfu raised his hand to stop Li Tengkong from speaking, as if to stop his phase from falling.
His eyes were no longer as stern as usual, and became a little confused.
The phase must not be lost, no.
"Let me think about it... The saint wanted to pacify Nanzhao as soon as possible, so he asked Zhang Bian to twist the court into a rope?"
"It's possible." Li Xiu said.
"Is this what the saint thinks?" Li Linfu asked again.
Li Xiu was at a loss, hesitated, and responded: "The rebellion of Nanzhao, the saint couldn't bear such humiliation, so he wanted to unite the whole court?"
"No need to deal with Li Heng myself?"
"this……"
The father and son were silent. Li Linfu thought about it and said, "I'm going to meet the Holy Spirit."
"Yes." Li Xiu said, "Tomorrow..."
"It's almost dawn, is there still tomorrow?"
Li Xiu was stunned for a moment and said: "Master, the genius has darkened."
"Boom."
In the distance, the dusk drums of Chang'an City came.
"The drum is ringing." Li Linfu said slowly: "The truth is that I want to enter the palace to face the saint."
Li Xiu and Li Tengkong looked at each other and asked, "Master, you mean... the morning drum is ringing?"
Li Linfu didn't answer him, pushed him away feebly, stood up staggeringly, and walked out.
The brother and sister hurriedly stepped forward to support him and walked towards the courtyard to meet An Qingzong head on.
"Your Prime Minister." An Qingzong saluted, "May your Prime Minister be well."
Li Linfu didn't say anything, and continued to walk forward for a while, then whispered: "Hu'er's eyes dodge, and he feels guilty."
"Master Mingjian."
Li Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thinking that Grandpa's mind was still clear.
The next moment, Li Linfu looked at Zhang Bian in front of him and murmured: "Wei Jian? Why is he not dead yet?"
"Grandpa? What are you..."
"Wang Fei, why do you keep calling me 'Grandpa'?"
Li Xiu's eyes widened, looking at the old face in front of him, he was speechless for a moment.
"Wei Jian wants to worship the prime minister and get rid of him." Li Linfu said lightly, "He is not worthy of competing with me for the position."
"Grandpa, I am Juro."
Li Linfu caught a glimpse of Li Tengkong in the blink of an eye. He was surprised and murmured, "Yang Taizhen?"
"Grandpa?"
"I have met Madam Yang, and I would like to see the saint."
Li Tengkong was so frightened that he took two steps back, then took Li Linfu's hand and felt his pulse.
Li Linfu quickly withdrew his hand and bowed tremblingly again.
At this moment, Li Tengkong moved his eyes to the lobby and was surprised again.
She saw... Yang Taizhen?
She was a little confused at first, but then she was sure that it was Concubine Yang. There would never be another woman with such grace in the world. Even though she was dressed in ordinary clothes, she still shone like the bright moon.
But why is Concubine Yang in Xue's house?
Li Tengkong turned his eyes and finally saw an old man standing in front of Yang Yuhuan. He was wearing a robe, standing with his hands behind his back, speaking with a serious smile, and around him, Gao Lishi and Chen Xuanli were actually acting as guards. potential.
The saint actually came to Xue Bai's wedding in person?
Li Tengkong couldn't believe it, but when she rubbed her eyes, the scene in front of her became clearer.
~~
Li Longji grew up outside the palace, and he was not willing to be restrained when he became emperor, so he changed the palace where he lived to Xingqing Palace. He also often visited the houses of his brothers and sisters, King Qi, King Xue, and Princess Yuzhen.
With several of his brothers passing away one after another, he has rarely been out of the palace recently. He came here rarely today. Everyone was surprised and the scene became silent.
In this silence, Li Xiu heard a strange name.
"Pei Guangting?"
Li Linfu suddenly muttered to himself.
Li Xiu was stunned again and followed his gaze... The saint just turned around.
"Pei Guangting is here too."
Li Linfu sneered and walked towards Li Longji.
"Grandpa?"
Li Xiu quickly pulled him, now somewhat aware of the seriousness of the situation.
really.
"Feng Niang." Li Linfu smiled slightly.
This smile hadn't appeared on his face for ten years, and it was quite charming, but it was extremely strange when it appeared on his old and haggard face.
Li Xiu didn't need to look to know who he thought was Wu Fengniang at this time.
It turns out that Wu Fengniang is as beautiful as Yang Guifei?
The thought in his mind disappeared in a flash, and Li Xiu had to face the imminent problem in front of him.
Once the grandfather is asked to walk in front of the saint and regard the saint as Pei Guangting and Yang Guifei as Wu Fengniang, it will be really... Li Xiu thought about it and felt cold sweat flowing from his armpits.
He couldn't help but shudder.
"Grandpa, don't go..."
In front, Li Longji had turned his head and said with a smile: "Shiro is here too? It seems that Xue Baibai is not bad at popularity?"
Li Xiu was horrified. He turned around and saw a hint of sarcasm in Li Linfu's eyes.
He understood very well what his grandfather was sarcastically saying - "Pei Guangting, wilt."
"Shizhong Pei..."
Li Xiu's vision went dark, and he felt that he was finished. He wished he could die on the spot.
The next moment, the surroundings were filled with exclamations of surprise.
"Right Prime Minister!"
Li Xiu felt a heavy weight on his hand. It turned out that his grandfather had finally fainted.
At this moment, his mood was indescribable, and he couldn't imagine what would happen if he thought the saint was Pei Guangting and chatted for a few words.
"Grandma!"
~~
"What happened?"
"The right prime minister fainted."
"How could this be?"
"The right minister must have come to prevent Xue Lang from getting married today. When the ceremony was completed, he lost his temper. When he saw that the saint also came to the banquet, he fainted from anger."
"I heard that back then, the Right Prime Minister's Office rejected Xue Lang's marriage proposal, right?"
"This is really..."
Zhang Bian couldn't help but sneer in his heart when he heard these discussions.
He knew why Li Linfu fainted. He just knew that his position was in danger.
Seeing a crowd of people carrying Li Linfu away, he seemed to have seen Li Linfu's resignation.
Zhang Bian poured a glass of wine, walked towards Xue Bai and said, "The right prime minister has withdrawn."
With a double entendre, he considers himself quite funny.
At this time, Li Longji was still expressing his concern for Li Linfu. Xue Bai looked at this scene without looking back and asked in a low voice: "I heard that the prince-in-law hired a group of officials?"
"I can't hide it from you."
Zhang Bian knew that Xue Bai had contact with Li Linfu, but he was not angry. In his opinion, it was just Li Linfu's death struggle. Without the capacity to accommodate others, it was difficult for Li Linfu to continue sitting on the stage.
Xue Bai said: "The prince-in-law recruits people from the East Palace, and the East Palace wants to marry An Lushan. If An Lushan wants to plot for Hedong, how will the prince-in-law express his position?"
"You should know that Nanzhao is the most important thing." Zhang Bian said.
Xue Bai listened and said nothing more.
Because Li Longji has turned around.
"The right minister has been busy with state affairs and is tired for a while. Don't disturb the joy." Li Longji waved and asked Xue Bai to come forward and said: "You are Taizhen's sworn brother. You are getting married. Taizhen has begged me for a long time to ask for it." I will reward you greatly.”
Xue Bai quickly saluted Yang Yuhuan, and with a quick glance, he saw that she seemed to have lost a little weight.
"But after much thought, I don't know what to give you, so I have to come to the banquet in person."
"The saint is so kind to me, I am so grateful that I shed tears of gratitude."
"Everyone, please take a seat and don't let me disturb your interest."
For safety reasons, Li Longji originally did not plan to stay here longer, but Xue Bai always had something that interested him.
After the wedding banquet was interrupted by Li Linfu, there was a new performance on the stage.
Today, there are always operas or songs and dances on this stage, but they are all old songs. No one has the intention to watch carefully, and most of them are still talking. As soon as the saint came, the person on the stage was immediately different. It was Xie Aman.
And the song is still new.
"I live at the head of the Yangtze River, and you live at the end of the Yangtze River. I miss you every day and drink the water of the Yangtze River together without seeing you."
"When will this water stop, and when will this hatred end? I only hope that your heart will be like mine, and you will live up to my love."
The singing was long-lasting, and Li Longji couldn't help but listen attentively, savoring the new ideas in this song.
He could tell that although Xie Aman's singing skills were not as good as Xu's, he sang this song very emotionally. This was Xue Bai's trick.
"Xue Bai gave this song to Ah Man to sing on his wedding day." Li Longji couldn't help but comment when discussing with Yang Yuhuan, saying: "How heartless."
"How to say?"
"He knew I was coming, deliberately arranged a good song, and let the most suitable person sing it, but ignored Xie Aman's wishes. Isn't it heartless?"
"Saints are many lovers." Yang Yuhuan said: "Xue Bai is obsessed with official career and is a heartless person. I am not worth it for Aman."
While talking, Huang Hanchuo stepped forward and saluted: "May the saint be well."
Li Longji was in a good mood when he saw Huang Hanchuo, and said with a smile: "You little old man, you have been unwilling to enter the palace to accompany me for a long time."
"If the little old man comes to the palace too often, the world will inevitably blame the little old man for always playing with the saint, but he is still at ease outside the palace."
Huang Hanchuo's words made Li Longji a little unhappy, but Yang Yuhuan couldn't help but laugh.
"No, the world is blaming me now."
Li Longji couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, and he didn't blame them.
On this matter, he is still very open-minded.
In fact, he was the one who invited Huang Hanchuo. This saint didn't have many friends and rarely left the palace, so he wanted to meet this funny hero outside the palace who had not been in the palace for a long time.
"You tell the truth." Li Longji called Huang Hanchuo closer and said, "Tell me, what did you see at this banquet today?"
"What does the saint want to know?"
Li Longji glanced casually in the hall, and Huang Hanchuo followed his gaze and saw Wang Zhongsi.
"Back to Saint, everyone wants to talk to A Xun..."
Ah Xun is Wang Zhongsi's nickname. Only the old man in the palace and Li Longji's confidant can call him by this name, and the weight of his words is also very heavy.
~~
Over there, Zhang Bian saw the saint talking to Huang Hanchuo, and suddenly thought of something.
Xue Bai once told him that Huang Hanchuo was not invited by him. In other words, Xue Bai actually knew that the saint would come, but why didn't he tell him?
"Xue Lang, you..."
Just as Zhang Bian was about to ask a question, Xue Bai was summoned by the saint.
He felt a little uneasy for no reason, and followed the saint without waiting for him to call him.
"Officer Groom, come here."
Li Longji was somewhat casual. He called over Xue Bai and asked, "Wang Zhongsi is the military envoy. As soon as he returned to Beijing, he came to your wedding without an audience first. Do you know that it is inappropriate?"
"General Wang and I share the same loyalty and have a clear conscience. There is no need to hide anything."
"good."
Li Longji nodded and looked at Zhang Bian, about to ask a question.
Xue Bai suddenly spoke and said, "Sage, please forgive me. I have an unkind request."
"explain."
"I heard that the saint granted marriage to the princess of Hezheng..."
"This matter is not your turn." Li Longji said lightly, waved Xue Bai away, beckoned Zhang Bian to come forward, and said with a smile: "I have entrusted you with state affairs, so don't delay."
"Don't worry, saint." Zhang Bian said: "I will definitely share the saint's worries."
"That's good."
Li Longji stood up gracefully and planned to leave. When he turned around, his mind suddenly connected some recent things that he had not cared about.
Two days ago, Princess Hezheng came into the palace and said that the prince wanted to attend Xue Bai's wedding banquet.
Later, Mrs. Korea entered the palace and accidentally mentioned that Princess Hezheng was about to marry An Qingzong. He was about to reward An Lushan with something, so he agreed.
Now it seems that behind these things is not only the prince's little intention to take advantage of his daughter, but also someone who is giving guidance to the prince.
Li Longji couldn't help but turn around, looked at Zhang Bian, and said, "Zhang Qing, is everything going well?"
Zhang Bian was stunned for a moment and responded: "My lord... it goes well."
He suddenly realized that he had made a huge mistake - he was too devoted to his work, only thinking about twisting the court into a rope, getting too close to the East Palace, and ignoring the saint's wishes.
No one reminded him.
Huang Minchuo said: "This is the power of Mount Tai. The prince-in-law has a good Mount Tai."
Li Longji couldn't help but smile, shook his head and left.
Zhang Bian looked at Huang Hanchuo gratefully, knowing that Huang Hanchuo wanted to help him this time.
Can you help?
It seems that the saint cares more about Nanzhao and is more afraid of Donggong...
~~
It's night and the guests have dispersed.
Xue Bai walked towards Qinglu, thinking that Yan Yan would be bored sitting there waiting, but as he got closer, he heard the chatter of a group of women inside.
Lifting the curtain and looking around, I saw Yan Yanzheng playing something with Qing Lan, Yong Er, Ren Mulan and others, with notes stuck on their faces.
He couldn't help but think that he had married a playboy who had not grown up.
The next moment, Yan Yan glanced at him, but instead of calling him "brother," she muttered something softly.
He didn't hear it clearly, but it seemed like "The husband is here..."
(End of chapter)
