Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 446 Meeting Master and Apprentice (Happy New Year's Day)
When Li Shimin learned about Wei Hao's punishment from Wei Furong, he was very surprised and emotional. He was also very satisfied with what Wei Hao had done.

Although this son-in-law is lazy, likes to fight, and likes to cause trouble, no one can compare to him in terms of doing things, and even more so in life.

"You, you don't need to do this next time. The cotton is also for the imperial court. It should be promoted next year, right? By then, the people will have supplies to keep out the cold. In the future, the people will not freeze to death.

If you want to do things, you still have to rely on Shenyong. You see, many ministers have never thought about this kind of matter that concerns the people. They just think about how to make the people obedient. As for the people's life and death, They don't care, but they don't care about the life and death of the people, how can the people be obedient?Li Shimin sat there, looked at Wei Hao and said.

"Father, I agree with what you said. If you can't let the people have enough to eat and wear warm clothes, then who will be obedient? The so-called etiquette with enough food and warm clothes. The world is stable?" Wei Hao nodded and said to Li Shimin.

"Well, let's not talk about this, my in-laws, how is your health recently? Don't be too busy. He and Lizhi will get married next year. After getting married, you will have one less thing to worry about, and you should be happy and relaxed!" Li Shimin looked Followed Wei Furong and said.

"Yes, yes, I'm not busy, even if I turn east and west, there is nothing to do. Anyway, those things are managed by Shen Yong. Now I also hand over those workshops to Princess Changle. This is theirs. The matter of the young couple will be given to them sooner or later!" Wei Furong said to Li Shimin with a smile, and he was very grateful for Li Shimin's concern.

"Give it to Lizhi?" Li Shimin heard it, and looked at Wei Furong in surprise, Li Lizhi hadn't married yet, and started to take care of the biggest income for the Hao family.

"Hey, let them take care of it. Anyway, they will take care of it sooner or later. Now that my father is so busy, I will leave it to them!" Wei Hao said with a smile.

"Well, does Li Zhi care about the royal affairs now?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"It doesn't matter, the Crown Princess is managing it now. After all, it is better to leave it to the Crown Princess as it belongs to the royal family!" Wei Hao nodded and said,
Li Shimin frowned, he didn't know about this, he thought Li Lizhi was in charge.

"Well, does the Crown Princess understand this matter? Many of those workshops were built by the two of you. Now that the Crown Princess is involved, do you think it is appropriate?" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and asked.

"It's appropriate, father, after all, this will be handed over to the princess sooner or later. It's not better to hand it over to her now. It will save a long time in the future, and those accounts will be more troublesome!" Wei Hao knew what Li Shimin meant,

Li Shimin doesn't want to hand it over to the East Palace now, but Wei Hao doesn't want Li Lizhi to continue to manage the royal affairs, there is no need to offend the crown princess, and there is no need to cause the empress of the eldest grandson to be unhappy, this is the empress of the eldest grandson.

"Well, that's what I said! But this is unfair to Lizhi. The entire royal industry actually has credit for Lizhi. It is inappropriate to kick Lizhi out now!" Li Shimin sat there and said. Said.

"Father, there is nothing inappropriate. Don't worry too much. The Crown Princess can definitely manage it well." Wei Hao immediately persuaded Li Shimin,
Li Shimin glanced at Wei Hao and said nothing.

"Well, my in-laws, now that Lizhi is in charge of those things, you should play more and hang around more, don't get tired!" Li Shimin looked at Wei Furong and said, Wei Furong nodded with a smile,

Then the three of them sat there chatting,
At this moment, in the next door, Li Tai brought a group of people over. Those people were the sons of some civil servants or Lord Marquis, and they were all the eldest sons. Now Li Tai was playing with them. Those people had just entered, and Li Tai appeared at the end ,
Looking at the guards, they looked familiar, and then walked over. He knew that the box was dedicated to Wei Hao. No matter who came, he would not open it. Unless Wei Hao told him in advance, otherwise, he would sit in the room. Not to that box.

"Excuse me, is my brother-in-law here?" Li Tai asked one of the girls.

"Return to Your Highness, yes, the young master is here!" The girl nodded, and Li Tai wanted to knock on the door, but at this moment, the guard at the door stopped him.

"Your Highness, you can't knock on the door!" The guard looked at Li Tai and said.

"You, my lord, where is the emperor?" Li Tai looked at the guard in shock and asked.The guard nodded.

"Hurry up and report!" Li Tai said immediately, the guard hesitated for a moment, but still knocked on the door, then went in, and told Li Shimin that the King of Yue, Li Tai, was here.

"Let him in, Qingque!" Li Shimin shouted at this moment.

"Hey, father!" Li Tai heard Li Shimin calling him, and immediately ran in with a smile.

"Look at you, it's time to lose weight, don't eat like this, you've become so fat!" Li Shimin said reproachfully after seeing Li Tai.

"Hey, good, good, father, listen to you!" Li Tai said with a smile.

"Look at your brother-in-law, and look at you again. You don't have the masculinity of a man. How old are you, Shen Yong? If you have nothing to do, tell him to lose those fat!" Li Shimin said to him. Wei Hao confessed.

"Hey, okay, how about I wake him up every morning, and let him practice martial arts with me, let him move around!" Wei Hao took the conversation with a smile.

"Okay, it's settled like this!" Li Shimin immediately agreed.

"Ah?" Both Wei Hao and Li Tai looked at Li Shimin in shock.

"Why, you said it yourself!" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and said.

"Father, I think it's a joke. I'll call him. My house is a long way from his house. Besides, will he get up? Father, you'd better find a special person to do it." That's right, my son really can't do it!" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin with a wry smile and said.

"Well, then Father Xing will find someone to stare at him, it's outrageous!" Li Shimin stared at Li Tai and said dissatisfied.

"Father, my son, why can't my son go to practice martial arts by himself?" Li Tai said, looking at Li Shimin with a bitter face.

"Hmph, how many times have you said it yourself, have you taken any action?" Li Shimin said dissatisfied.

"Yes, father, my son will definitely practice martial arts, definitely practice martial arts!" Li Tai is about to collapse, can he still sleep late after this?
"Okay, let's not talk about this, let's talk about you, what have you been up to lately, neither going to Ganlu Hall nor Lizheng Hall, why did you go?" Li Shimin stared at Li Tai and said,

Li Tai could only find a way to fool the past, but he couldn't tell the truth to Li Shimin, and then the four of them chatted,
After chatting for a while, the food came. Li Shimin and Wei Furong drank two glasses of wine. After eating, the rain stopped and the sun came out again. However, it wasn't so stuffy at the moment, so we sat in the private room for a while , Li Shimin is going back to the palace,
Wei Hao and Wei Furong came down to see Li Shimin off.

After Li Shimin sat on the dragon carriage, he greeted Wei Hao to go up. Wei Hao didn't know why Li Shimin was looking for him. He had been talking for so long, so could he still have something to say.

"Father, what are your orders?" Wei Hao looked at Li Shi and asked.

"Go to your father-in-law's house and tell your father-in-law to let him see Hou Junji. The misunderstanding between your father-in-law and Hou Junji was caused by Qi Guogong. Hou Junji still respects your father-in-law very much. Let them Let's meet, although your father-in-law has a deep opinion of him, but after all, you should meet him after all, otherwise you will never see him again in this life!" Li Shimin said to Wei Hao.

"Here, can my father-in-law go?" Wei Hao said without petition. In fact, Wei Hao planned to tell Li Jing from the beginning, but since this matter involved Li Shimin, Wei Hao wanted to find an opportunity to tell him to let Li Jing It's fine to know what's going on, but I didn't expect that now Li Shimin wants to go to inform Li Jing by himself, so he needs to postpone it for a while.

"If you can go, just say that I let him go. This matter is a misunderstanding. Qi Guogong made the decision without authorization. I have no choice but to do this, but I believe in your father-in-law. I know how your father-in-law is. You go there in the afternoon and talk to him!" Li Shimin nodded and said to Wei Hao.

"That's all right, I'll go and tell my father-in-law, I can't guarantee whether I will go or not!" Wei Hao nodded and looked at Li Shimin and said, he guessed that Li Jing might not go to avoid danger.

"You must go, as I said, if your father-in-law doesn't go, this knot will not be resolved, and Hou Junji will leave with regret!" Li Shimin said to Wei Hao.When Wei Hao heard this, he could only nod his head.

"In addition, remember to write those two memorials. They will be delivered to the palace early in the morning. I will ask Wang De to wait. Otherwise, you will come to the court meeting tomorrow!" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and said.

"No, busy!" Wei Hao shook his head quickly and said, Li Shimin stared at him angrily.

"I'm so busy, I have to watch those construction sites every day!" Wei Hao said, looking at Li Shimin sincerely.Li Shimin waved his hand at Wei Hao, signaling him to go down, and he didn't want to talk to him anymore.

"Father, my son will leave!" Wei Hao came down after saying that,

Soon, the carriage drove to the palace, and Wei Hao stood there thinking for a while. After thinking for a while, let's go. I guess what Li Shimin said is the truth, otherwise, he wouldn't ask himself to go.
Thinking of this, Wei Hao at least went to Li Jing's mansion. When he arrived at Li Jing's mansion, the porter saw that Wei Hao was coming, opened the door quickly, and came outside to greet him.

"Xia Guogong, you are here, please, the master is also at home!" The porter said to Wei Hao.

"Okay!" Wei Hao went in with a few soldiers, and the porter trotted ahead to inform Li Jing.Li Jing heard that Wei Hao was coming, so he didn't know what was going on, but he didn't come for a while, thinking maybe he came to see it.

"Shen Yong, this way!" Li Jing reached the door of the living room and greeted Wei Hao.

"Father-in-law!" Wei Hao shouted with a smile from afar.

"Why are you here today when you are free? Didn't I hear that you are very busy?" Li Jing asked with a smile just as Wei Hao arrived.

"I'm busy, no, I went out with His Majesty today, went to the Prison of the Criminal Ministry, and watched Hou Junji!" Wei Hao said to Li Jing.

"Oh, look at him?" Li Jing couldn't help being stunned when he heard it, then nodded, and walked inside together with Wei Hao.

"Father-in-law, I have to talk to you about something. I went to see Hou Junji today, and Hou Junji told you about it!" Wei Hao said to Li Jing after he sat down in the study.

"Is there anything to say about the old man and his affairs, who doesn't know about the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty?" Li Jing waved his hand, not wanting to talk anymore.

"Father-in-law, I'm afraid there is something hidden about this matter!" Wei Hao stared at Li Jing and said, Li Jing looked at Wei Hao incomprehensibly, Wei Hao said everything that Hou Junji and Li Shimin said in the cell.

Li Jing heard it, but didn't make a sound.

"Your Majesty asked me to come here and said, let you go to see Hou Junji to get rid of this heartache, and Hou Junji can also make up for this regret. When mentioning your father-in-law, Hou Junji pointed in the direction of your mansion, Kneel down and kowtow three times!" Wei Hao looked at Li Jing and said, Li Jing was sitting there, still silent.

"Father-in-law, what do you mean? Your Majesty wants you to go anyway. If you don't go, I don't think Your Majesty will blame you!" Wei Hao saw that Li Jing didn't speak, so he looked at Li Jing and asked.

"Think about it, old man. You suddenly said this to this old man. Well, if someone else said it, this old man wouldn't believe it!" Li Jing looked at Wei Hao and said, Wei Hao nodded his head in agreement.

"In addition, after you went, tell him that his eldest son is a viscount. Others have a chance to survive in the coal mines for at least 10 years. Originally, the families of these criminals wanted to Exiles, I heard that if they are exiled, there will be no one in ten, so I thought, let them go to hard labor, in this way, there will be no dead people, and they can also make contributions to the court,

So, you go and tell him to let him worry less. As for whether Hou Junji will die or not, well, His Majesty has not let go now. He probably has to wait, wait for your wishes, wait for Fang Xuanling's wishes, if you If you insist on letting him die, then no one can save him. If you want to keep him alive, then he may be alive! "Wei Hao looked at Li Jing and said what he meant.

"See what we mean?" Li Jing heard it and looked at Wei Hao in shock.

"Yes, because you insisted on wanting him to die before. I also said today that he should be forced to serve hard labor, but His Majesty hesitated for a moment and did not agree. After all, there are so many generals, he also needs to consider your feelings!" Wei Hao nodded. nodded and said.

"Well, let's take a look. The crime he committed this time is not small. If he doesn't kill him, it's really not enough to convince the soldiers on the border. A minister of the Ministry of War smuggles pig iron. Can live, but pig iron is related to the lives of frontline soldiers, who doesn't care?" Li Jing looked at Wei Hao and said, Wei Hao nodded, of course he understands such things!

Then Wei Hao chatted with Li Jing for a while, then left,
After Wei Hao left, Li Jing sat alone in the study for a long time, until it was almost time to eat, when Hong Fu Nu came over and called Li Jing.

"Well, ma'am, you send someone to Juxian Tower, and tell me what I said, you need to order meals and wine for two people, and the old man will go over to get them later, and let them prepare them right away!" Li Jing sat down There, looking at Hong Fu Nu said.

"What's the matter, if you invite someone to dinner, why don't you just go directly to Juxian Building, why do you need to bring them there?" Hong Fu Nu looked at Li Jing incomprehensibly.

"Go!" Li Jing didn't want to talk to Hong Fu Nu either, and he couldn't tell if it would be smooth in a while, so let's go and see Hou Junji first.

Soon, Li Jing went out. He went out in a carriage. When he arrived at Juxian Building, his servants came out with food, and then went straight to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Li Jing is a right servant, wanting to see a prisoner, it's very simple,
Li Jing arrived at the cell first, and then he set out the meals himself. He didn't bring any servants, he just set them up by himself, and then poured the wine. After a while, Hou Junji came in dragging his chains. When he saw that it was Li Jing, he immediately burst into tears. .

"Go down!" Li Jing said to the two guards.

"Yes, if he wants to hurt someone, just yell and we'll be outside!" the jailer looked at Li Jing and said, Li Jing nodded, and the two guards went out and closed the door.

"Master!" Hou Junji knelt down immediately, crying and shouting, Li Jing also went to help him up.

"Come on, sit down, the old man went to Juxian Building to order these dishes. I don't know if it suits your taste. I also got some wine. The best wine, you know, Juxian Building is opened by Shen Yong. Juxian Tower still has a bit of thin noodles, basically they drink the best wine!" Li Jing pulled Hou Junji up with a strong smile, and helped him to the opposite seat.

"Thank you, Master!" Hou Junji wiped his tears with his hands, looked at Li Jing and said.

"Thank you, we should have eaten and drank together a long time ago!" Li Jing waved his hand and said.

"I'm sorry, Master. There was nothing I could do at that time. You were fighting outside and won the battle. Duke Qi came to me and said that His Majesty was worried that your achievements would overwhelm the Lord and asked me to impeach you. I didn't agree at first, so he said to me, if When the time comes, His Majesty will get rid of you, and even I will be unlucky,

He also said that if I impeach you, His Majesty will not punish you much, at most he will reprimand you, it’s okay, I thought, it’s right, so the master will be safe, so I agreed, I wrote a letter of impeachment, everything, in fact It was Qi Guogong who told me how to do it. I never thought of such a thing. Please forgive me, Master! "Hou Junji clasped his fists, lowered his head, and said to Li Jing.

"Well, I believe it, come on, I believe it!" Li Jing nodded and said.

"Master, I am ashamed of you by my disciple. I also have resentment towards you later on. I thought, I have helped you, but you still treat me like this, and let other generals treat me like this. I am not convinced, so I will fight with you." You are against me, master, this apprentice is wrong!" Hou Junji said again with sobs choked up.

"Hey, it's the master's mistake, it's the old man's mistake, come on, drink, I'll try to save your life!" Li Jing said to Hou Junji emotionally at this moment.
