Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 486
Chapter 482

Li Shimin's rewards to Wei Hao and the others made many people envious, but more people were thinking about what His Majesty meant, whether he wanted to develop Luoyang, and Wei Hao would not be the governor of Luoyang casually. What is Wei Hao? People, they know very well, that's a guy who doesn't want to be an official,
Now Wei Hao accepted it, which meant that Wei Hao and Li Shimin had discussed something. Luoyang must be the focus of development, but there was no more news from the court, and now they can only guess.

"Your Majesty, we need to focus on the development of Luoyang. After all, the population of Chang'an City is too large now. Do we want to transfer some workshops to Luoyang?" At this time, Fang Xuanling asked.

"Well, that's what I mean. However, it was probably impossible a year ago. There were a lot of things happening a year ago. Shen Yong will also need to get married after the spring of next year, but he doesn't have time to focus on this. Let's talk about it after the spring!" After hearing this, Li Shimin nodded and gave an affirmative answer, but said that it would be after next year.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Luoyang is indeed going to focus on development. The population of Chang'an City can't be said anymore. There are not so many houses for the people to live in!" Dai Zhou also said at this moment, clasping his hands.

"Well, let's not talk about this today, Shen Yong, let's walk with me, everyone has already walked the bridge!" Li Shimin waved his hand and stopped the ministers from continuing. The focus today is to see the bridge. The current bridge, Li Shimin was very surprised, and more satisfied, he never thought that the bridge could be built like this, and it could be so smooth.

"Yes, father!" Wei Hao stood there and said, and then walked with Li Shimin, looked at the bridge, and walked to the other side of the river. Li Shimin also saw the boulder in front of the bridge, and the boulder he saw just now , with the same content.

"Shen Yong, this way we don't need to get two boulders!" Li Shimin pointed to the boulder and said to Wei Hao.

"That won't work. The bridge was indeed built with the money of the royal family. It must be made clear. People who cross the bridge must know this. Your Majesty and the royal family are very concerned about the people!" Wei Hao immediately shook his head. Said, a little bit of suspicion of flattery, but Li Shimin is very useful, as the emperor, if it is popular.

"You, okay, I am very satisfied with the bridge, very satisfied. Tomorrow, the Weihe Bridge will be open to traffic. Then let Gao Ming go. Gao Ming can't come over today. After I leave Chang'an City, he needs to sit in Chang'an City!" Li Shimin smiled. He said to Wei Hao.

"Yes, it will open to traffic tomorrow!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

"Well, so, all the ministers and workers, at noon tomorrow, there will be a banquet in the Ganlu Palace. Officials above the fifth rank in the capital will come to participate. Let's have a good celebration." Li Shimin stood there and said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The ministers heard it and said immediately, clasping their hands.

"Well, that's it, Shenyong, let's go!" Li Shimin said to Wei Hao, and then walked to the carriage, Wei Hao also followed, escorting Li Shimin into the carriage, Li Shimin's carriage went first , then came the carriages of those ministers, and Wei Hao was at the end, there was no way, now here, I am the master, of course I need to let those people go first.

"Shen Yong!" Wei Chen was very excited at the moment. This excitement was almost unbearable. Earl, things that he dared not even dream of have now fallen on his head. Now, he is also a nobleman. .

"Well, tomorrow morning, get up early, and go to the palace with me to thank you, Changsun Chong, go together tomorrow, thank you, we have to go to the Weihe Bridge to preside over the opening ceremony!" Wei Hao smiled at Wei Chen and the others Said.

"Yes!" The two of them said immediately, clasping their hands together.

"At noon, shall we go to Juxian Building for dinner?" Wei Hao looked at the two of them and said.

"I'm here to treat you!" Chang Sun Chong immediately took the words.

"No, no, I'm here to treat you, I'm here to treat you!" Wei Chen immediately reacted and said hastily.

"Haha, let me come, the two of you will need to hold a family banquet at that time, but wait until the busy days are over!" Wei Hao said to the two of them with a smile.

"Yes, the two of you need a treat! By the way, brother-in-law, the emperor asked you to be the governor of Luoyang. If you really want you to go to Luoyang, what will happen to Chang'an City?" Li Tai is very concerned about this issue at the moment. He is not interested in Hou or something. He is already a prince. If Li Shimin approves it, he doesn't care about those titles.

"Well, my father said, let's talk about it next year. Besides, I'm gone, don't you still have you? What are you worried about? After I leave, Jingzhao Mansion really has the final say, and it's you, brother I guess I don't have that much time to pay attention to the development of Jingzhao Mansion!" Wei Hao said while looking at Li Tai with a smile.

"That's different, okay, brother-in-law, otherwise, tell your father that I won't be the young minister of the Jingzhao Mansion anymore, and I'll go to Luoyang to serve as an assistant?" Li Tai immediately stared at Wei Hao and said, He hopes to be able to be with Wei Hao. He knows very well that with Wei Hao, he can make great achievements, especially when he goes to Luoyang. They are all different.

"Don't let someone else choose, and it is impossible for the emperor to let you go. If I go, you go too. What about Chang'an City? Who will manage it? At least a few acquaintances should be kept here?" Wei Hao stared He looked at Li Tai and said, Li Tai nodded depressedly after hearing this, while Wei Chen just stood there without saying a word, thinking in his heart, what should you do if you go to Luoyang as the assistant driver?
"Hey, brother-in-law, you'd better help me figure out a solution for this matter. You're not in Chang'an, so it's boring." Li Tai said, looking at Wei Hao with a sigh.

"It's okay, don't worry, I can't be in Luoyang every day, at most three months a year, the rest of the time, I'm definitely in Chang'an, if you need anything, just come to me!" Wei Hao comforted with a smile Li Tai said,

Li Tai nodded, and among the other officials, they were also discussing whether they could transfer acquaintances to Luoyang. They knew what benefits Wei Hao would have if he went to Luoyang. This time, Jingzhao Mansion But Bian has to transfer many officials to other places to serve as county magistrates. Following Wei Hao, the credit is real.
Let’s say Wannian County, in less than a year, has developed into such a county, becoming the county with the most taxes in the Tang Dynasty, and now the people are also the county with the highest living standards. Once Wei Hao goes to Luoyang, Luoyang will also There are many workshops, and those officials in Luoyang will definitely be promoted by then.

At noon, Wei Hao, Wei Chen, and Chang Sun Chong and other officials from the Jingzhao Mansion had dinner at Juxian Tower. Wei Hao treated guests. After the meal, Wei Hao returned home. At this moment, the family has received the imperial edict , because it has already been announced on the bridge deck, so when the imperial edict arrives, there is no need to accept it in person, but the incense table is still set up to welcome the imperial edict.

"Shen Yong, brat, is there another Marquis?" Wei Furong asked happily to Wei Hao who was lying there.

"Hey, by the way, you send someone to deliver something to Wei Chen's mansion. He has been made an earl. I guess there may be a banquet in the next two days, and a lot of things will be needed!" Wei Hao said to Wei Furong with a smile.

"Ah, Jinxian has become an earl, really?" Wei Furong stood up in great surprise, stared at Wei Hao and asked, Wei Hao nodded with a smile.

"Okay, okay, it's really double happiness, double happiness, okay, that, dad will go and arrange it now, oh, sister-in-law, don't you know how happy I am, and, my dead brother knows, I don't know How happy, okay, okay, honor your ancestors!" Wei Furong was very excited, very happy, even happier than Wei Hao now being a Marquis,
Wei Hao already has two dukes in his body now. It is not necessary to have one more marquis. Of course, it is better than nothing. In the future, there will be one more child with a title, right?

"Yeah!" Wei Hao sat there and nodded,
When Wei Chen returned to the mansion, he was a little drunk, but his mind was still clear. Now he was very happy. Just when he arrived at the gate of the mansion, all the servants and maidservants knelt down, shouting to see the count.

"Hey, haha, rewards, rewards, rewards!" Wei Chen said happily, and Wei Chen's wife also came out from the outside at this moment, supporting Wei Chen.

"Congratulations, sir, the imperial decree came from the palace just now, and the concubine has also been appointed as the imperial wife! Master has worked hard!" Wei Chen's wife said to Wei Chen with a smile.

"It's not hard work, it's not hard work, I didn't expect that I would be named an earl. This depends on Shen Yong. If it wasn't for Shen Yong, I wouldn't be able to become a noble!" Wei Chen said to his wife with a smile, and she nodded. Some people know that it must be related to Wei Hao.

"Master, go home first, mother is not happy now, I will make tea for you later, sober up!" Wei Chen's wife said, and then helped Wei Chen to go to the mansion. When his mother was standing there, Wei Chen let go of his wife's hand, walked in front of his mother, and knelt down on his knees.

"Come on, get up, let me get up, today is the glory of the ancestors, get up!" The old lady hurriedly pulled Wei Chen.

"Mother, my son, my son drank a little too much. Today, those colleagues all toasted my son. I can't help but drink, but I'm happy!" Wei Chen said to his mother with a smile.

"Well, mother knows, come in and drink tea to sober up!" The old lady also said happily, and when she helped Wei Chen to the sofa in the living room, Wei Chen lay there and fell asleep, while Wei Chen Shen's wife also hurriedly made tea for Wei Chen, but it was too hot for Wei Chen to drink.

"By the way, have you sent someone to Jinbao Mansion to announce the good news?" the old lady asked.

"I sent it, I just sent it, I was so happy at first, I almost forgot!" Wei Chen's wife nodded immediately.

"Well, I'm going to announce the good news. In the past few months, Jinxian has been very happy every day. Unlike before, he is very depressed. It is because Shen Yong is there, and no one dares to bully him. Don't be afraid of things, even if you offend someone, no one dares to bully him, Shenyong is something most people can't afford!" The old lady sat there and explained to Wei Chen's wife.

"Yes, the master often said the same thing, busy, but not tired, especially not tired." Wei Chen's wife nodded and agreed.

"Old Madam, Madam, Uncle Jin Bao is here!" A servant came in and said.

"Hey, hurry up, please!" The old lady said quickly, and then she stood up. The lady also supported the old lady. After a while, Wei Furong came in, followed by some people, carrying gifts.

"Sister-in-law!" Jin Bao shouted with a smile when he saw the old lady standing at the door of the living room.

"Hey, come here as soon as you come, don't bring so many gifts every time, it's outrageous, my sister-in-law can't finish eating here!" The old lady said to Wei Furong quickly.

"It's okay, our two families have a big happy event today, haha, we're ennobled!" Wei Furong said happily, and then went to support the old lady.

"Well, yes, double happiness is coming, double happiness is coming, but it is still thanks to Shen Yong. During this period of time, Shen Yong led Jinxian to do things. Of course, if you say thank you, my sister-in-law will not say it. They It’s good that the two brothers can understand each other and support each other, it’s better than before, when they suffer losses, they can only swallow their stomachs and don’t dare to say anything, it’s different now!” The old lady held Wei Furong’s hand excitedly Said.

"Well, that's not right. We were in the family before, what are we? Stand aside!" Wei Furong nodded.

"Uncle Jin Bao, hurry up, go in and drink tea, Jin Xian is drunk and fast asleep there!" Wei Chen's wife said with a smile.

"It's okay, let him sleep, he must be drunk today, he's a knight, what a happy event, those colleagues can let him go?" Wei Furong said with a smile, and then helped the old lady to the living room, and heard Wei Fu Shen snores.

"This child!" The old lady looked at Wei Chen with a smile.

"It's okay, let him sleep, early tomorrow morning, you have to go to the palace to thank you, Shen Yong will take you there, so as not to be rude, Shen Yong is familiar in the palace, by the way, niece and daughter-in-law Ah, when I go back, I will talk to Shen Yong, let Lizhi accompany you to see the queen, so that you don't dare to speak, next spring, Lizhi will be your sister-in-law, this sister-in-law, very good , very sensible and reasonable, such a daughter-in-law is a blessing to my family! Siyuan is also very good!" Sitting there, Wei Furong said to them.

"Okay, thank you uncle!" Mrs. Wei Chen said immediately, clasping her hands.

"Well, thank you, I'm really happy to join the old man. These two children are promising. After the New Year's Eve, I will go to see the eldest brother, so I can have an explanation!" Wei Furong said with emotion.

"It depends on you and Shenyong. Without you and Shenyong, Jinxian would not be able to get to where he is today. Before seeing this child as an official, he was very tired. Now he is fine!" The old lady also said emotionally there, and then It was Wei Furong chatting with them in the living room,

Early the next morning, Wei Hao went out. When he arrived at the gate of Wei Chen's mansion, Wei Hao sent someone to call out. Wei Chen and his wife had already come out before the servants passed by.

"Shen Yong, you got up so early?" Wei Chen said happily.

"I've seen my brother, I've seen my sister-in-law!" Wei Hao immediately got off his horse and said to Wei Chen and his wife.

"Hey, why are you being so polite?" Wei Chen went to support Wei Hao, and then said back.

"That's what you need, congratulations brother and sister-in-law!" Wei Hao said with a smile.

"I still want to thank you, Jinxian often said, he is not afraid when you are here!" Mrs. Wei Chen said to Wei Hao with a smile.

"That's because brother has the ability, okay, let's talk while walking, we have to go to the Weihe Bridge later!" Wei Hao said to Wei Chen and the others, and the two of them also nodded. Wei Chen rode a horse, Wei Chen's Madam is also wearing imperial clothes now, sitting in a carriage,
When he arrived at the palace, Wei Hao called a eunuch to wake up Li Lizhi. Yesterday evening, Wei Hao sent someone to inform Li Lizhi to accompany Wei Chen's wife to the inner palace early in the morning.

"Shen Yong, Shen Yong, this way!" At this moment, Wei Hao saw Li Lizhi greeting him in the distance.

"Let's go, sister-in-law, this way please!" Wei Hao said with a smile, and then went to Li Lizhi's side. "I have met Her Royal Highness Princess Changle!" Wei Chen and his wife immediately saluted Li Lizhi.

"Excuse me, don't be so polite to me, Shenyong, take your brother to Ganlu Hall, I will take my mother to Lizheng Hall, I haven't had breakfast yet, my mother has ordered someone to prepare breakfast It's gone!" Li Lizhi immediately supported Wei Chen's wife and said.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Mrs. Wei Chen said politely again.

"Don't be so extravagant. When there is no one else, just call me Lizhi. You are Shenyong's sister-in-law!" Li Lizhi said to Mrs. Wei Chen.

"Yes, that's over, Lizhi!" Mrs. Wei Chen nodded again and said,
Soon, Wei Hao and Wei Chen separated from them. Wei Chen was a little nervous. Although he had been an official in the capital for so many years, it was the first time he came to Ganlu Hall, and it was also the first time he might have to meet the emperor directly. At the gate of the hall, Wang De said to Wei Hao: "Just informed His Majesty, you go in!"

"Well, thank you, Eunuch Wang, brother, he is a person close to the emperor, he is very good, when I see you in the future, remember to keep it, and drink some tea!" Wei Hao said to Wei Chen.

"Thank you, Eunuch Wang!" Wei Chen immediately understood Wei Hao's meaning, and said hastily cupping his hands.

"You're welcome, please!" Wang De immediately said with a smile and cupped his hands, and then Wei Hao led Wei Chen in. Just as he entered, he saw the eldest grandson rushing in, chatting there.

"My son has seen his father!"

"I have seen Your Majesty!"

"Come on, I'll just wait for the two of you. Come on, bring up the breakfast. You haven't eaten it yet, Shen Yong!" Li Shimin immediately called the two of them over, and Wei Hao laughed. Walked over: "Of course, I'm not so stupid when I've arrived at the palace, and I don't have an empty stomach!"

"Stinky boy, Jinxian, come here and sit down, your younger brother is sometimes not upright, you as an elder brother, you have to persuade him!" Li Shimin pointed to Wei Hao and said something, then greeted Wei Hao sunk.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Shen Yong is indeed impulsive sometimes, but he is still young, young people, there are not many who are not impulsive!" Wei Chen said immediately, clasping his hands.
