The arrival of his family made Li Ye happy for a while.
After spending time with their family, they went to Huamanlou to treat Luo Cheng to a drink. Nalanyu and Luo Cheng got drunk and had a hangover for two days. They said they would never drink with Li Ye again.
Just watching and drinking, such a national master made Luo Cheng feel speechless.
After seeing off the general from Beihai, Li Ye accompanied his husband to the palace. He had not seen the eldest prince for a long time.
The master and apprentice chose a sunny day and entered the palace at the end of the day.
The eldest prince, who was reading in the study, watched Yan Wuxue bring the two of them in, greeted his husband, and then watched Li Ye complain.
He said: "Master, you are just trying to get rid of me. Just throw me into the palace and stop caring about me."
"Your Majesty, you are a bit wronged by what you said. You have Dean Xia and the others... We agreed at the beginning that I would not care about anything after you ascend the throne."
Li Ye imitated the eldest prince's tone when he was in southern Xinjiang.
"You're cruel!" the eldest prince laughed.
After the eldest prince informed the husband about the personnel changes in the dynasty, the husband lowered his head and thought quietly for a while.
"It's okay to let Jiang Huo be the general marshal. Dean Xia can hold the post of right minister temporarily. Let the old man from the Nalan family be the dean of the Royal Academy. But Nalan Yu, if he is allowed to become a big General, is it too fast?"
Sir, I was thinking that there was still Wei Xian before the imperial city.
Li Ye thought for a while, looked at the two of them and said, "How about changing it, let Wei Xian be the general, and let Brother Nalan be the general of the imperial city and the commander of the imperial army."
Upon hearing this, the eldest prince nodded in agreement: "General Nalan lives and dies with us in southern Xinjiang after all. I can trust him with many things."
Although Wei Xian was an old man left behind by the emperor, he had not played any role in the chaos in the imperial city, so the eldest prince was not at ease.
"Since you two think it's appropriate, then so be it." The gentleman didn't want to interfere in the affairs of the imperial city.
"Your Majesty, regarding the post of national preceptor, I would like to let you take care of it after I go to Prajna Temple. How about it?" Li Ye thought that he would have to stay in the mountain for at least two or three years. He couldn't really do it. Leave the affairs of the imperial city alone.
When the eldest prince heard this, he clapped his hands and said hello, and looked at the gentleman with wide eyes.
The gentleman was stunned, looked at Li Ye and asked, "You don't need me to go to Fangcun Mountain with you?"
Li Ye shook his head, thinking about the poor life in Fangcun Mountain and all the inconveniences after the heavy snow closed the mountain in winter. He couldn't bear to let his husband and Li Hongxiu go through that hardship again.
"Fangcun Mountain is already my territory. Sir, you don't need to suffer with me. If you want Master and the others to find a place to practice, you can go to Qingcheng with Mr. Tang. The place has good conditions and is close to the imperial city."
Li Yesi thought about it and thought it would be best to let Li Hongxiu go to Qingcheng because Tang Qiuyu was there. And Li Hongxiu always wanted to bring Tang Qiuyu and her husband together.
When going to Qingcheng, he can also take care of the little fat man and the others. This is Li Ye's selfish intention.
"Speaking of Qingcheng, I forgot to tell you something. Your three friends will return to Fengyun City now, and they will probably return to Qingcheng after the new year." The gentleman looked at Li Ye and said lightly.
Li Ye almost jumped up when he heard this and said, "Have they gone back? I was still thinking about going to Qingcheng that day to see the three of them."
"National Master, I didn't expect that you still have friends practicing in Qingcheng. Bring them to the palace another day to see if they are willing to serve in the palace." The eldest prince became interested when he heard this.
If you can't get Li Ye himself, it's a good idea to get his friends.
"Them?" Li Ye looked doubtful. He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then looked at him and said, "Their current level should not be high. Let's wait a few years until they have broken through the Nascent Soul."
From the bottom of his heart, Li Ye refused Fatty Tang and his companions' plan to come to the imperial city.
As long as they are happy, it doesn't matter what Li Ye does.
"Yes, the three of them are still in the Golden Core realm now. Even if they come to the dynasty, they won't be able to help much. Let them practice in the mountain for a few more years. Then we will tell them that they are willing to come and then consider it."
The gentleman also agreed with Li Ye's opinion.
"The right minister has already aged, and the other people standing behind him don't play much of a role, and it's not easy to replace them all at once. In addition, Linghu Kuangyu is a relative of Concubine Li, so this matter is not easy to deal with. "
The eldest prince had a headache when he thought about the affairs between the second prince and Linghu Kuangyu.
"There is also my second brother, what should I do? I have to find a place for him to stay, right? Otherwise, if I give him a prince, he will probably cause trouble again soon!"
Looking at Mr. and Li Ye, the Great Emperor frowned and said.
When he mentioned the second prince, Li Ye shut his mouth. In his heart, the only way to relieve his hatred was to cut him off with a sword, if Xia Yuan hadn't saved him.
The gentleman glanced at Li Ye and did not immediately reply to the eldest prince's words. Instead, he pondered for a moment and then looked at the prince and said, "You'd better ask Concubine Li first and discuss it with her."
"The premise is that he is not holding an important position." Li Ye was afraid that if the eldest prince promised him an important official position, it would cause trouble in the future, which would be even more troublesome.
He didn't want to keep picking up the mess for the dynasty.
His goal is still to practice.
First, he will cultivate the formless body to the ninth level. This will be his main task in the next few years.
Apart from that, he just spends time with his parents and sister. After all, he spent too little time at home before.
"For Linghu Kuangyu, let him continue to do what he was doing before. Anyway, his previous position will not affect the overall situation. This can also appease the veterans in the court."
The gentleman's words solved two problems for the eldest prince.
When the eldest prince heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that once the master and the imperial master came, all the headaches for me would be solved."
"Next, it's time to talk about you and Princess Yelu." Li Ye thought that he couldn't let Yeluyan live in his home forever. After all, she came to the imperial city for the eldest prince.
"It won't be so soon, right? I've just ascended the throne?" The eldest prince was stunned and looked at Li Ye blankly.
Li Ye looked at his husband and said with a smile: "Yeluyan, who lives in our house, is a princess on the grassland. She came to the imperial city just for the emperor. I plan to ask Brother Nalan to go to the grassland to propose marriage after the spring."
When the gentleman heard this, he nodded with a smile, looked at the eldest prince and said, "That little girl is wrong. She is knowledgeable and sensible. She is the material to be the queen. Let's do this. Tomorrow, Ye'er will take her to the imperial mausoleum and show it to the queen. Look, this is her daughter-in-law."
"Sir, it's a good idea. I'll take my sister and the others there tomorrow." Li Ye thought to himself, and brought a lot of girls over to entertain Jiang Ruoyu.
The eldest prince looked at the two of them with a grimace, thinking that he had not been free for a few days, and you two wanted to find someone to control you.
"After the emperor ascends the throne, the first task is to establish a queen. Only in this way can we stop the minds of the ministers in the court and make them be honest and stop thinking of tricks to please you."
The gentleman looked at the confusion on the eldest prince's face and explained to him with a smile.
The eldest prince lowered his head and thought for a moment, and felt that it made sense.
Li Ye even patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "How can you make the decision about marrying a wife? If you want to make the decision yourself, you will finally find a concubine in the future. However, you have to make Princess Yelu happy. ."
Thinking of the prairie woman's fiery temperament, Li Ye couldn't help but worry about the eldest prince's future life.
"It's settled! We're going to propose marriage in the spring, and the wedding will probably be held in the summer. Ye'er won't be around then, so I'll officiate the wedding for you. By the way, your mother is still here, and she will definitely be happy if she hears the news."
The master has made the final decision and cannot be denied by the eldest prince.
After all, the husband is the emperor's best friend. In the eyes of the eldest prince and Xia Wutong, there is no difference between the husband and their father.
Ever since I was little, my husband has always seen me.
"Okay then." The eldest prince nodded, finally succumbing to the coercion and inducement of his husband and Li Ye.
Both in the eyes of his husband and in Li Ye's heart, they all believed that Yeluyan was the best candidate for the queen, not to mention that she was a princess on the grassland, and after getting married, she became an in-law with the most powerful tribe in the grassland.
Even in the DPRK, it is a kind of restriction.
Because as long as the eldest prince does not allow the children of any ministers to become the queen, the ministers in the court will not be in chaos, and there will be no dominance of one family, just like the Linghu family currently.
He could obviously chop off Linghu Kuangyu's head, but because of Li Fei, he had to put aside his crime temporarily.
"I'm really thinking about you. What's the difference between you and my elder brother? Could I still harm you about getting a wife?"
Li explained to the eldest prince again: "As long as you marry Yeluyan and make her your queen, the ministers in the imperial city will become more honest and stop thinking about her.
"If you don't establish a queen, either the left prime minister or your imperial grandfather will definitely make decisions for you. When the time comes, you will be asked to marry a woman you don't like as the queen, and you will feel even more uncomfortable."
Li Ye glanced at Mr. Li and said softly.
The gentleman did not speak, but smiled and nodded, expressing his agreement with Li Ye's opinion.
"Since the Battle of Southern Xinjiang, you and Princess Yelu have spent a lot of time together. At least you two understand each other, and she also likes you. Isn't this important?"
Li Ye shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I have never done this before. Please don't cause trouble to me again and again. I still have to go back to the mountain to practice."
It means, don’t let me worry about getting a wife for you while practicing in the mountains.
"Don't you still understand?" The gentleman looked at him and smiled.
"Sir, I am unworthy of your kindness. It is really troublesome for me to have my husband and the Imperial Preceptor worry about my future. Let the Imperial Preceptor meet my mother and let her decide everything..." ..”
The eldest prince has made up his mind. The next step depends on Li Ye and Yeluyan meeting Jiang Ruoyu.
Li Ye thought for a while, the emperor was not here, so the queen had to make the final decision.
"Just stay in the palace and wait for my good news. There will still be some time before spring, so don't worry, the emperor can enjoy his last single life!"
Li Ye clapped his hands and planned to leave.
"Why don't you come back after having dinner in the palace?" The eldest prince wanted to leave the two of them to eat.
"I won't eat anymore. My mother is still waiting for me to go back. Whenever the emperor has free time, he can come to the house as a guest. I am very lively now." Li Ye looked at him and smiled.
"There is a little princess in your family who I haven't met yet. I have to think about what gifts to bring him. After all, this is the first time we have met."
The eldest prince couldn't help but admire him when he thought that the Imperial Master's family actually gave in to his father and granted the title of two princesses.
Although Li Ye was not tied up, his two sisters were tied up.
For the eldest prince, this is the most important and happy thing.
Li Ye made an appointment with the eldest prince to come to the Imperial Prefect's Mansion another day, and then left the palace with his husband and master. The master and apprentice walked through the thick snow to the Imperial Master's Mansion.
The master and the apprentice were walking one behind the other, and the teacher suddenly said: "Ye'er, it seems that we haven't walked in the snow like this for a long time. In southern Xinjiang, we probably don't walk much, right?"
"Exactly, whenever I go out in Southern Xinjiang, I am always anxious." Li Ye thought of his own Southern Xinjiang in the past year, and he really didn't travel much.
"Yes! Once you enter the secular world, you can't help yourself. When do you plan to leave the imperial city and go to Fangcun Mountain?" asked the gentleman.
"Summer at the latest, I want to spend more time with my mother and husband." Li Ye replied quietly. The husband brought his family to the imperial city, so he was not in a hurry to go to Prajna Temple.
"Alright, practicing is important, but spending time with your family is equally important. I'm very happy that you can think so." Mr. said slowly.
In the imperial city of Youshi, someone had already lit up the lanterns.
Snowflakes gradually fell in the sky.
