"Brother-in-law."
At nightfall, Bai Yuxian accompanied Han Shiyin back to Han's house, and happened to meet Han Yu at the door.
Seeing Bai Yuxian arriving, Han Yu called him "brother-in-law" in a smooth and smooth manner.
However, neither Bai Yuxian nor the entire Han family had any objections to this. Although Bai Yuxian and Han Shiyin were not officially married yet, the relationship was already acquiesced by both parties.
Even Bai Yuxian's address to Han Su had long been changed to father-in-law.
"Congratulations to my brother-in-law for winning the top prize in martial arts."
After calling, Han Yu smiled and congratulated Bai Yuxian. At the same time, his eyes looked at Bai Yuxian with a bit of unconcealable heat, and he couldn't help but feel happy and admired in his heart.
Han Yu has one thought right now, that is, his brother-in-law is really too strong. He is invincibly strong and is simply the best in both civil and military affairs. With such a brother-in-law as his leg, from now on, as long as he doesn't seek death and act like a monster, that's not it. Can lie down comfortably.
Bai Yuxian also smiled and nodded to Han Yu when he heard this. He also had good senses about Han Yu.
This brother-in-law is very sensible and reasonable, his manners are polite and polite, and he also has a young talent. If he is properly guided and cultivated, he will definitely be a talent in the future.
"Is my father-in-law at home?" Bai Yuxian asked again. After winning the first prize in martial arts this time, if nothing happens, he will be appointed as an official after the court tomorrow and directly join the officialdom. At this time, he also wants to talk to his father-in-law. .
After all, my father-in-law has been an official for many years, and now he is the Young Minister of Dali Temple. This will definitely help me a lot in my future official career.
"Father is at home. He just said that brother-in-law, when you come, he will take you there directly."
"The Jade Immortal is here."
Not long after, Bai Yuxian saw Han Su.
Han Su was drinking tea in the Han family's living room, and a smile instantly appeared on Bai Yuxian's face when he saw him arriving.
This is my son-in-law. He is truly a unicorn, with the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix.
The more he thought about it, the happier Han Su felt, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter. After all, what father-in-law wouldn't like an outstanding son-in-law like Bai Yuxian who can be said to be unparalleled in the world.
As for Bai Yuxian, she is lustful and flirtatious.
Isn't this normal? There is no man who is not romantic. As long as he has the ability, any man will have three wives and four concubines.
In Han Su's view, it doesn't matter if he is a womanizer, as long as he takes care of his family, he is a good man.
Moreover, Bai Yuxian had already agreed with him that Han Shiyin would be his wife after they got married, which was what Han Su was happiest about.
It was Bai Yuxian's decision to make Han Shiyin his head wife after careful consideration, because based on his current situation, among the women around him, Han Shiyin was indeed the most suitable candidate for his head wife.
First of all, Han Shiyin was born into a noble family, and her father Han Su is also a young minister of Dali Temple. Secondly, although Han Shiyin has a well-behaved personality, she also has the style of a noble family. After all, as an official lady who came from a well-known family, there is no doubt about the education Han Shiyin received since she was a child. , and Han Shiyin herself is also a smart and talented woman.
In comparison, Xiangling's temperament is a bit too soft, and her status is indeed lower than that of Han Shiyin. In the future, as Bai Yuxian's status becomes higher and higher, Xiangling will be asked to be the head wife and support the head of the family. I'm afraid the identity is unrealistic.
Therefore, according to Xiang Ling, Bai Yuxian planned to marry the two girls as his equal wife and Han Shiyin as his head wife.
As for Liu Hongxiu and Li Shishi, it goes without saying that with the current status of the two women, Bai Yuxian can only marry them as concubines. Even if Bai Yuxian wants to give them the status of wives, it will not work, because in this era, Social rules don't allow it.
If he really wanted to give Liu Hongxiu and Master Li the status of concubine, Bai Yuxian could only accept the two women as concubines first and then look for opportunities to upgrade the two women later.
Needless to say, the last Li Mi, the relationship between the two is still underground and cannot be exposed at all.
Liu Yiren's words will not be considered for the time being. He will have to wait until next year at least to get in.
"Yuxian has met my father-in-law." Bai Yuxian saluted Han Su.
"Daddy." Han Shiyin also called.
Han Su nodded with a smile on his face and said.
"You and my husband-in-law don't need to be so polite. It just so happens that you, Yuxian, won the first prize in martial arts today and will be promoted to an official soon. I am also planning to have a good chat with you, Yuxian. Let's sit down and talk."
"Dad, my daughter will ask someone to prepare tea."
Han Shiyin saw that her father and husband had something to say, and it was obviously business, so she immediately spoke up and left with the surrounding maids and servants.
"I heard that His Majesty summoned you to the palace earlier."
After Han Shiyin and everyone around him retreated, Han Su asked.
The fact that Bai Yuxian was recruited into the palace by a carriage sent by Li Longji could not be concealed. Now it has spread throughout Chang'an, and Han Su has naturally known about it for a long time.
"That's true. His Majesty recruited me into the palace, tested me on some military strategies, and intends to create a new Forbidden Army and make me the commander-in-chief."
Bai Yuxian didn't hide anything, and roughly told his father-in-law what happened after entering the palace.
Although Bai Yuxian did not explain it in detail and did not explain some things clearly, as someone who has been an official for so many years, how could Han Su not understand the meaning.
The emperor obviously really took a fancy to Bai Yuxian and was indeed preparing to build a new imperial army.
Not surprisingly, the candidate for the new commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army must be his son-in-law.
This is simply a huge opportunity!
Being the commander-in-chief of an army, and also the commander-in-chief of a forbidden army, this is a fast track to the center of power.
If Bai Yuxian really becomes the new Forbidden Army general, then as long as he can successfully command and control this new Forbidden Army in the future, he must be at least a third-level Forbidden Army general.
Then Han Su couldn't help but become happy.
Now that Bai Yuxian is his son-in-law, once Bai Yuxian becomes an official, the relationship between them and his son-in-law will naturally be that of one of his own, and they will naturally become the same camp. In this case, Bai Yuxian's future development Needless to say, the better it is, it will naturally be good for him, and it will naturally become a strong and reliable ally.
"Jade Immortal should seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
"That's what my father-in-law said."
Bai Yuxian nodded. He naturally knew this. For him, joining the official position this time was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Of course, the main thing is the help from Li Mi.
If it weren't for Li Mi's recommendation to Li Longji, he might not be so easily in Li Longji's eyes, and he definitely wouldn't be as easily valued by Li Longji as he is now.
So sometimes it is so nice to find a rich woman, especially a super rich woman like Li Mi.
I must go and treat Li Mi tonight.
Moreover, a top-class car like Li Mi also needs more fuel and maintenance.
"Now that you have won the first prize in martial arts and are about to enter the officialdom, I should also talk to you about some of the things in the court." Han Su said again, planning to start informing Bai Yuxian about the situation in the court in advance. Bai Yuxian.
"Please give me some advice from my father-in-law."
Bai Yuxian also immediately cheered up, knowing that the key point was coming.
Now that he is about to become an official, the situation in the court, especially the various factions among officials, must be clarified, especially those who may become enemies and which may become friends. These must be clarified. of.
Otherwise, if you just stupidly enter the court without knowing anything about this, you may not know when you were tricked or used as a weapon.
Although Bai Yuxian himself has always paid attention to the situation in the court and paid attention to the news.
But after all, he has not yet gone deep into it and the information he can get is limited. The current situation in the Tang Dynasty is definitely not as good as that of his father-in-law, a real court official and a fourth-rank official with real power.
If his father-in-law had given him some advice and known the situation in the court in advance, it would be of course a benefit to Bai Yuxian when he entered the court.
This is like the difference between an ordinary person who has been admitted as a civil servant and then enters an agency. There is someone to help and give guidance, and there is no one to help him explore everything on his own.
"Do you know what the two largest camps are in the current situation in the court?"
Han Su looked at Bai Yuxian and asked, not shying away from the affairs of the camp in the court.
After all, this kind of thing cannot be avoided in any dynasty from ancient times to the present, and Weng and his son-in-law are not outsiders. Naturally, Han Su and Baiyuxian and his son-in-law do not need to be too secretive and cautious.
And Bai Yuxian really knew this.
"As far as Yuxian knows, the two largest factions in the court are undoubtedly the Prince's faction and Li Xiang's faction."
The current crown prince of the Tang Dynasty is Li Heng. The third son of Emperor Li Longji was established as the crown prince in the 25th year of Kaiyuan. At the same time, there were many supporters in the court, especially military attachés, who supported Prince Li Heng. There are even more.
For example, today's chief general of the Tang Dynasty, Wang Zhongsi, is a loyal supporter of Prince Li Heng, and his relationship with Prince Li Heng is as close as a brother. Wang Zhongsi himself is also the governor of the three towns of Hexi, Hedong, and Shuofang.
In addition, there were also generals such as Longyou Jiedushi Huangfu Weiming, who were also members of Prince Li Hengyi's faction.
It can be seen from this that Prince Li Heng’s current power in the court, especially as a supporter of military commanders, is extremely powerful. Wang Zhongsi alone is also the governor of the three towns of Hexi, Hedong and Shuofang. The envoy has three major military forces, and together with Huangfu Weiming, the Longyou Jiedushi, there are four major military forces.
To be honest, if Prince Li Heng rebels at this time, the combined power of his subordinates will be enough to shake Li Longji's throne.
But precisely because of this, the position of Prince Li Heng has actually reached an extremely dangerous situation.
Li Longji has no intention of abdicating yet, but you, Li Heng, have gathered such a large force, especially military power.
What do you, Li Heng, want to do, rebel?
And the most important thing is that the son rebelled against Lao Tzu, but their Li Tang family tradition, how could Li Longji not guard against it.
So despite the fact that Prince Li Heng is now extremely powerful in the court, as long as Li Longji does not show signs of decline, Li Heng will only be in danger.
Needless to say, the second Li Xiang, Li Linfu, has been controlling the affairs of the Tang Dynasty for many years. He has won the trust and respect of the emperor Li Longji and is also a powerful figure in both the government and the public.
Prince Li Heng's faction.
Prime Minister Li Linfu's faction.
These are the two largest factions in the Tang Dynasty today.
