My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 1254 The fish bites the hook
"Son, Liu Mingzhi, see your mother, a thousand years old!"

Liu Mingzhi followed Manager Qian Lu and Director Qian all the way around and finally arrived at Funing Palace, which Nangong Meng had just moved to.

After all, after Li Baiyu ascended the throne, Nangong Meng could no longer live in the empress' bedroom. That was where the new empress would live. Although Li Baiyu wanted to build another palace so that his mother could live in the usual palace, Nangong Meng blocked it. up.

The reason is naturally that extravagance and waste should not be allowed. Although the national treasury is small and rich now, the world is so big that there are too many places to spend money.

Nangong Meng was wearing a luxurious phoenix robe, and looked at First Young Master Liu who was standing by the door with a light smile, "Mingzhi, you don't need to be so polite, take your seat quickly!"

"Thank you mother!"

Liu Mingzhi smiled at the third princess who was looking at him affectionately, and sat down on the lower head of Nangong Meng.

"Old Qian, pour wine for the son-in-law!"

"Yes, madam!"

"Mingzhi, you have worked so hard these days for your father and Yu'er. You have worked hard! Your father has just made a big trip, and I don't want to be too grand, so I have prepared some simple meals. Today is the first day of the new year. I didn’t even have time to have a reunion dinner.”

"The queen mother is ashamed, so I call you to do my best!"

Nangong Meng said that it was a simple meal, but actually prepared six dishes and two soups.

It can be seen that Nangong Meng is still grateful to Liu Mingzhi for supporting his son so much.

Liu Mingzhi picked up his wine glass and nodded to Qian Lu: "Thank you!"

"Mother, these are what the sons and ministers should do. Since the father has appointed the sons and ministers as auxiliary ministers, it is only natural for the sons to do these things for the stability of the court."

"It's a pity that God is ruthless. Father and Emperor are at their peak in Spring and Autumn."

"Fortunately, the internal and external peace is temporarily peaceful, giving His Majesty time to adapt. This is also a blessing in misfortune."

Nangong Meng's brows also carried a little sadness: "Ming Zhi, the dead are gone, and the living mourn!"

"Your father can leave with peace of mind, and the queen mother will be satisfied!"

"Every life, every autumn, there must be such a day. If the queen mother doesn't want to look away, she has to look away!"

"Mother, sons and daughters shouldn't mention the sad things about the mother, let's mourn!"

"Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, and the teachings of the queen mother are indispensable. The sons and ministers respect the queen mother for a glass, and let him pass the past!"

"Yan'er also respects her mother!"

The three drank all the wine in their cups, and Nangong Meng looked at the third princess with a light smile.

"Yan'er, there are still two desserts in the imperial dining room. You can pass them on. Those eunuchs and maids are disturbed by your father's affairs, so it is inevitable that something went wrong and lost their interest."

The third princess was taken aback for a moment, and nodded obediently: "Queen Mother, I know, you and your husband have dinner first!"

"Husband, I will come as soon as I go!"

"Okay, be careful!"

The third princess walked out of the bedroom slowly, and looked at the eunuch standing outside the palace: "Tell me, what does the queen mother ask this princess to do?"

The eunuch was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted: "Your Highness, Your Majesty is waiting for Your Highness in the Imperial Study Room. As for what's going on, we don't know."

"Emperor brother? This princess knows, lead the way!"

"Yes, Your Highness, this way please."

Nangong Meng looked at First Young Master Liu who was engrossed in eating: "Mingzhi, what do you think of the King of Shu and the others?"

Liu Mingzhi looked at Nangong Meng in amazement at his meal, and it turned out that Nangong Meng sent away the three princesses not because of the food and drink.

After thinking for a while, Liu Mingzhi put down the chopsticks in his hand: "I don't know what aspect the queen mother is talking about?"

Nangong Meng pondered for a while, her charming face was slightly weird.

"For example, what they think about Yu'er's ascension to the throne!"

"From your point of view, have they accepted the fact that Yu'er ascended the throne?"

"It's okay for Ping'er and the others to say, Hong'er and Long'er, these two children, were always eyeing that seat when your father was still around."

"The queen mother is worried that they will still not give up. If something goes wrong, it will be a big trouble for Yu'er, the court, and the stability of the country."

"Mingzhi, you are one of the auxiliary ministers appointed by your father, I don't know if there is any way to deal with it in advance!"

Liu Mingzhi shook his head slightly: "Empress mother, son-in-law also have nothing to do."

"After all, the emperor's elder brothers are relatives of the Li family, and with the clan mansion at their side, let alone sons and ministers, even His Majesty has no good solution."

"Now that things have happened, Erchen means to see the tricks and break the tricks."

"As long as His Majesty stabilizes Chao Gang, even if the imperial brothers have any ideas, it will be in vain!"

"Predict the enemy's opportunity first, my son really doesn't have that ability!"

Nangong Meng nodded regretfully, she also knew that what Young Master Liu said was the truth.

There was a clan mansion guarding the side, even if Li Baiyu took advantage of Li Yunlong, they would have to think twice, let alone Liu Mingzhi, a foreign minister.

As long as Li Yunlong and the others didn't take any practical actions, Li Baiyu and the emperor could only stare blankly.

"Eat slowly, drink soup to nourish your stomach after you've been hungry for a long time!"

"Thank you, Queen Mother, my son-in-law is rude!"

Fearing that Nangong Meng would ask some weird questions again, First Young Master Liu buried his head in eating again.

As for the issue of etiquette, Li Zheng, the first emperor, didn't even bother to ask himself about it, let alone Nangong Meng, a queen mother!

There was only a little food left on the dinner table, Nangong Meng frequently glanced at the gate of the palace with anxious expressions on his face.

If the daughter doesn't come back, things will have to be revealed.

But Nangong Meng didn't know that Young Master Liu knew that Nangong Meng wanted to dismiss the third princess on purpose.

While Nangong Meng was waiting eagerly, the third princess came in first, followed by two eunuchs holding cakes.

"Empress, son is back!"

"You child, you don't know how to urge those imperial cooks to come back after so long!"

"The mother made a mistake and blamed the son. The pastry took time, and the daughter didn't do it on purpose!"

The third princess took the tray from the eunuch: "Mother, husband, try the sweet-scented osmanthus crisps newly made by the imperial chef!"

Nangong Meng stretched out her well-maintained slender fingers, picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, put it in her lips, tasted it twice, and then put it down: "It tastes good, Mingzhi, you should eat more, because the mother's appetite is poor because of your father's matter." , just try it."

"Thank you, Queen Mother, I will not be polite to you!"

Young Master Liu grabbed the sweet-scented osmanthus crisps and devoured them hungrily, selectively turning a blind eye to the angry eyes of the third princess.

Not only is it important to fill your stomach, but you can also avoid topics, what a great thing.

After a long time, Young Master Liu patted his stomach: "Queen, if there is nothing else to do, Erchen and Yan'er will leave first. After all, in the harem, it's not good for Erchen to stay too long!"

"Okay, after you have eaten and drank enough, the queen mother can rest assured. You go outside the hall and wait for a while. The dressing room gave the queen mother the robes of the queen mother twice. The mother wants Yan'er to refer to it. The delay will not be long!"

"Yes, son-in-law is leaving first."

Young Master Liu walked out of the hall without changing his expression.

Nangong Meng looked at the third princess with a light smile: "Your elder brother told you what he wanted to reward Cheng Qian!"

"I said, but I also asked some other things!"

Nangong Meng was taken aback: "Other things? What else did you say?"

The third princess looked back at the palace with a complex expression: "Brother Huang asked if the father-in-law has a lot of money!"

Nangong Meng's face was puzzled for a moment, and suddenly his expression changed slightly: "The queen mother knows, you should go back with Mingzhi first!"

"Yes, my son is leaving!"

After the three princesses left, Nangong Meng looked at Director Qian: "Qian Lu, go and send Yu'er to Bengong to pay his respects."

"Yes!"

"Husband, quickly let the concubine down, it's not good for people to see!"

Young Master Liu cheerfully looked back at the third princess on his back: "What's wrong, it's only natural for a husband to carry his wife behind his back."

"There is no rule in the law of the dragon. Husband can carry it if he wants to. After eating so much, he will carry you, a big fat pig, to lose weight!"

"The concubine is not fat, the flesh on her body has grown to where it should be!"

"Really? When you get home, you have to check carefully as your husband, to see if Yan'er is taller again!"

The third princess embraced her husband's neck with a reddish face, and glanced at the guards who passed by not far away.

"Is it high or not, can't you feel it behind your concubine's back?"

"Oh, I wear thick clothes in winter, who knows if it's clothes!"

The third princess tugged Young Master Liu's ear angrily: "Bah, you're not serious, you're talking nonsense with your eyes open, that's not what you said when you robbed the child! Except for Sister Shan, I have never served anyone before! Like gathering, what the waves are talking about is the concubine's body!"

"Yan'er, you have learned badly, you were not like this before!"

"That's what I learned from you, a big pervert!"

"By the way, husband! Brother Huang just told Yan'er to pass!"

"and then?"

"He wanted to reward Gan'er with a title, and asked the concubine if she wanted a foreign or internal title!"

"The outer prince, the inner prince is not at ease as a husband!"

"Okay, the concubine listens to her husband, and he will do whatever he says!"

"Husband!"

"what happened?"

"I want to buy some clothes that my husband likes to wear, but my husband understands what the money is like!"

Young Master Liu's eyes lit up: "Yan'er, Husband still has some private money here. Let's buy what Yan'er likes. If the money is not, we must not treat my wife badly."

"Your salary is not even enough to go to brothels, where did you get the money from your own house!"

"Ask the old man for it. This is a fine tradition of my Liu family. How much is a few clothes worth!"

"You really don't feel bad for selling your father's land. The father-in-law's money didn't come from the wind. How about you do this? There is no one like you in the father-in-law's stall."

"What's the matter? It's not a lot of money. The old man rents out brothels all the time. I spend a few coins to put it to good use. What's wrong with buying clothes for his daughter-in-law!"

"It's not a lot of money, whoever spends it is not a spender!"

"Okay, it turns out that what Sister Yun said is true. It turns out that it is true that the husband pays for others when there is a disagreement in Jiangnan. It is true that like a father like a son, the father-in-law looks so serious at the time, so it turns out that he is also an old and dishonest person." .”

First Young Master Liu smiled resentfully: "You are young and frivolous, you don't care about things, and now your husband is not what you used to be. One tael of silver can't wait to break it into ten parts and spend it!"

"Also, Yan'er, if the old man is not serious, we can just talk about it, don't talk nonsense, especially mother!"

"Otherwise, if the old man finds out, he will have to cut off his husband's private money!"

"Of course I know, I'm not a gossip, but husband, father-in-law spends so much money, how much money does he have, he doesn't care about it!"

"You make troubles too, the second uncle does the same with his younger siblings behind his back, and the third uncle is not honest."

"It made Chengfeng and his three brothers follow suit. It's fine when the flowers are over. Let's see if you guys know how to stay at home!"

Young Master Liu patted his forehead lightly: "Yan'er, don't believe it, your husband will be thirty soon, and I really don't know how much the old man will be your husband."

"As you can see, the old man's body is quite strong now, and he feels that he can live better than bastards."

"It may be difficult for the second child to inherit the family property in a short time, but I can live."

"Besides, if you become a husband and set up your own family, you will not be able to inherit the family property. I really don't know how much money you will have for your husband."

"But he should be quite rich. My husband has never worried about money. Even 5000 old men are embarrassed to make a move. Don't think about it. Anyway, it's not ours to inherit the family property. Why do you think so much!"

"What my husband said is also true. If I think about it carefully, I should save some money for my husband. We won't buy those clothes!"

"Don't, it doesn't matter how much you save!"

In Tianxiang Building outside the palace, the Li Bohong brothers looked around and scattered away, each got into the carriage and drove towards their own home.

Among the crowd on the street, the two men in plain clothes glanced at the last man wearing a bamboo hat who came out of Tianxiang Tower.

"Send a message to the Lord, the fish is about to bite the hook!"

"Do you want to make sure again?"

"My eyes haven't missed anyone yet. Send messages directly. Don't fly pigeons to send letters. Be careful of people who are spy shadows. These two days are full of their shadows, making us restrained everywhere!"

"What are you afraid of? It's not like we haven't slaughtered spies before."

"Hmm! Do you want to cause trouble for the Lord?"

"Don't dare, I'll send the letter first!"

The older plain-clothed man looked at his companion's back and frowned slightly.

"It seems that I have to tell the Lord, the brothers are getting more and more inflated."
