After talking for a while, Du Junchuo and Cheng Yaojin took their leave and left Duke Yiguo's Mansion. Naturally, they wanted to return to Lujiazhuang.
Just as Du Junchuo and the Beiwei Guard soldiers were returning to Lujiazhuang with the carriage and Cheng Yaojin, just five or six miles out of the Chang'an city gate, they saw Li Shimin taking Chai Shao from Lujiazhuang. The horse came galloping in the direction.
The two groups directly fought against each other. Cheng Yaojin, Du Junchuo and others immediately rushed forward, came to Li Shimin, dismounted from their horses and greeted Li Shimin.
Li Shimin told Cheng Yaojin about the matter. Cheng Yaojin did not return to Lujiazhuang. He turned around and accompanied Li Shimin back to Chang'an. Of course, he also asked Du Junchuo to say goodbye to Lu Chen and at the same time, he asked Du Junchuo to say goodbye to Lu Chen. He apologized for leaving without saying goodbye.
The two gangs broke up immediately. Du Junchuo took people back to Lujiazhuang, while Li Shimin took Chai Shao and Cheng Yaojin and went straight to Chang'an.
Returning to Lujiazhuang, Du Junchuo found Lu Chen who was checking the dressing table for the last time. Du Junchuo reported to Lu Chen in detail about the trip to Yiguo Duke's Mansion, and how Qin Qiong's wife, Mrs. Jia, asked Cheng Yaojin to Of course, Du Junchuo also had to report Lu Chen's portrait. Otherwise, if his father-in-law was not prepared at all for Cheng Yaojin's incident, he would definitely be the unlucky one in the end.
Hearing that Mrs. Jia actually asked Cheng Yaojin to protect her matchmaking, Lu Chen looked at Du Junchuo dumbfounded, "I am about to become a consort, how dare I marry anyone else?"
In fact, princes-in-law in the past dynasties were allowed to take concubines, but that only required the consent of the princess. As for these princesses in the Tang Dynasty, haha, it was the famous "princess disease", even though Li Yanjun was well-educated and well-educated , but when it comes to this kind of thing, Lu Chen doesn't think that the princess will easily agree to this kind of thing.
"This..." Hearing Lu Chen's words, Du Junchuo didn't know how to answer. Now that he's not married yet, he doesn't know what's going on here. It's just that they, the commanders, all feel that their county prince is a natural heir. It's good to be prosperous. After all, the children born in the future will inherit their position and continue to serve the Lu family. In fact, they have never thought that Lu Chen will always keep them by his side?
Although these famous generals of the Tang Dynasty were temporarily gathered by Lu Chen, Lu Chen did not intend to keep them with him for a long time. These people would all be people who would open up territories for the Tang Dynasty in the future, and Lu Chen did not want to let them go. By their side, they delayed their future.
"Okay! I know about this, go about your business!" Lu Chen waved his hand at Du Junchuo, and Du Junchuo could only salute and leave.
"Sir, actually, although Commander Du is not here, we all feel that the young master should find someone to sleep with him?" Xu Gaofeng, who was standing by, approached Lu Chen and whispered in a low voice.
"Old Xu, why are you saying this?" After hearing Xu Gaofeng's words, Lu Chen's face darkened and he looked at Xu Gaofeng, "Isn't this a nameless person who is harming other girls?" Lu Chen looked at him with some displeasure. Xu Gaofeng said.
"Master, those servants are your property! In those high-ranking families, this is a very common thing!" Although he saw Lu Chen's face was a little unhappy, Xu Gaofeng still looked at Lu Chen in confusion and said , "Besides, to be honest, none of those girls hope to be able to spread the branches and leaves of our Lu family. When the time comes, they can fly on the branches and become phoenixes!" Xu Gaofeng continued to persuade Lu Chen.
"Old Xu, if you mention this matter again, I will be angry!" Lu Chen directly waved his hand to stop Xu Gaofeng from continuing, "I will not do such a thing. If I do, then I will What's the difference between you and those beasts?"
"Master, if we, Mr. Xu, say something inappropriate, you are too upright in this world and will suffer a loss! Our huge Lujiazhuang is all counting on you, sir! Your Lujiazhuang is a pure land in this world! "Xu Gaofeng sighed helplessly and said, "It's hard for an honest official to live!"
"Old Xu, keep your heart in your stomach, the person in this world who can take my life has not been born yet!" Seeing Xu Gaofeng care so much about him, Lu Chen's face brightened a little, and Xu Gaofeng looked quite proud. Tao, if nothing else, if you can't fight, you can't walk? With a base on my own, where can I go in this vast land? This is the worst plan. Lu Chen doesn't believe that he will end up in that situation. Of course, this is based on the current situation.
Having said that, Xu Gaofeng did not dare to persuade Lu Chen to find someone to sleep with him. After confirming that there were no problems with the accessories on the dressing table, Lu Chen left Xu Gaofeng and returned to Lu Mansion.
Then, it was the day when Su Chang came to the palace to deliver the dressing table. In the early morning, Xu Gaofeng carefully started to load the carriages. There were two carriages, one carrying the dressing table for Li Xiuning, and the other carrying the dressing table for Li Xiuning. Princess Langya Li Yanjun.
The mirror was carefully wrapped in several layers, for fear that something might go wrong during transportation. If the mirror were to be broken, they would be damned.
After checking several times to confirm that there were no omissions or oversights, the two carriages left Lujiazhuang under the escort of Bei Weiwei. Of course, they were also accompanied by Lu Chen, Su Dingfang and Meng Ji.
Lu Chen took the opportunity of delivering the dressing table to go to the Princess Mansion to visit Li Xiuning. He had not seen Li Xiuning for a long time. After all, Li Xiuning was Lu Chen's noble person and he still had to visit when he should. What's more, Lu Chen had one more thing to do when he came to Chang'an this time, which was to meet that fat man Qian Junnan.
The convoy moved very slowly, and the drivers who drove the carriage were driving the carriage carefully, for fear that the bumps would damage the things on the carriage. That was the case. The convoy that set off at the end of Chenshi was already approaching the end of Sishi by the time Lu Chen entered Chang'an City. It's early noon.
Although many people along the way were curiously looking at the contents of the two carriages behind Lu Chen, no one dared to come up and talk to him. Even the soldiers guarding the city at the city gate did not dare to let Lu Chen open the packages for inspection. , who knows if this young man goes crazy, he will even chop down the gate of Chang'an City. The gate of Zheng Family Shangshu Mansion is still under repair. This Chang'an City Gate cannot stop this grumpy man. The father-in-law.
Even when Lu Chen was walking on the streets of Chang'an City with two carriages, the pedestrians gave way and stayed away from the carriages. Lu Chen shook his head helplessly when he saw this scene.
"Dingfang, it seems that I have a bad reputation, and I have the attitude of cleaning up the street!" Lu Chen smiled and said to Su Dingfang in a somewhat self-deprecating tone.
Hearing Lu Chen's somewhat self-deprecating words, Su Dingfang didn't know how to continue. Are you a street-cleaning tiger? Isn’t that nonsense! No, but the scene along Lu Chen's road now is no different from that of Jing Street Tiger.
Just when Su Dingfang was hesitating about how to answer, Lu Chen grabbed the reins of the white fox.
"Su Chang, you and Su Dingfang take them into the palace! Meng Ji accompanies me to the Princess's Mansion!" It turned out that just as Lu Chen and Su Dingfang were talking, the whole team had already arrived at Cross Street. To the left was the Princess's Mansion. The direction ahead is towards the Imperial City. Here, the entire team has to be divided into two.
"Yes!" Su Chang and Su Dingfang accepted the order, saluted Lu Chen and said goodbye, then headed directly towards the imperial city with the carriage containing the dressing table for Li Yanjun and the back guards escorting the carriage.
Watching Su Chang and Su Dingfang leave, Lu Chen shook the reins again, took Meng Ji and the remaining Beiwei guards, and escorted the remaining carriage towards the princess's palace.
Turn left on Cross Street, and then cross a street, which is where the Princess Mansion is located. Naturally, it is impossible for Li Xiuning’s Princess Mansion to occupy the entire land in one mansion. All mansions have regulations, but the one where Princess Li Xiuning’s Mansion is located Most of the people living in this place are relatives.
Crossing the street and walking a little further is Li Xiuning's Princess Mansion.
As a result, something went wrong while crossing the street.
Lu Chen was riding a white fox, leading Meng Ji and Bei Weiwei, escorting the carriage forward. Suddenly, the corner door of a nearby mansion was opened, and several people came out directly, stopping Lu Chen and others.
Lu Chen looked at the few servants and people dressed as men who were blocking his horse with confusion. He didn't know what these people were doing to stop him. Could it be that he is looking for justice against himself? As the Duke of Chang'an County, he has a title, but he has no real power at all. If it is for the title of Military Advisor of the Women's Army, it is even more nonsense. He may be able to manage the soldiers in the Women's Army, but this is Chang'an, how can anyone be affected by him? Controlled team? Of course, except for Bei Weiwei!
"Why did you guys stop me?" Lu Chen asked in a deep voice, looking at the people in front of him.
"Do you know where this place is? How dare you pass by on horseback?!" The person who seemed to be the leader of the few who blocked Lu Chen looked at Lu Chen sideways and asked arrogantly. According to Lu Chen, Looking at Chen from this angle, this skinny guy was obviously looking at himself through his nostrils.
"Where? In Chang'an City, at your feet!" Lu Chen looked at this man, and for some reason, he suddenly felt that this man was quite happy. He laughed and replied with a smile.
"That's right! It's indeed at your feet! But it's different here! This is in front of the Guozhang's Mansion. When officials get here, they have to dismount and pass by silently. Don't you know?" The skinny man still looked at Lu with an arrogant look. Chen asked rhetorically.
"The Patriarch's Mansion?" Hearing this guy's words, Lu Chen was stunned for a moment. In addition to having many sons and daughters, the old man Li Yuan also had many concubines. The more concubines he had, the more the Patriarch. How could Lu Chen know which Patriarch this was? However, when Lu Chen raised his head and looked at the plaque of the mansion, Lu Chen knew why the people who stopped him were so arrogant.
