Li Shimin

"My lord, that Mrs. Yang also brought twenty catties of gold!"

Li Chang reported in a low voice.

"Twenty pounds?"

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, with a hesitant expression on his face.

"It's the Yang family alone, who else?"

Li Chang gave Li Xuan a weird look, his king is really realistic!

"Report to Your Majesty, and the three young ladies from Duke Ying's mansion!"

"Go, bring it to the main hall, the king and the princess go together!"

Li Xuan said slowly, he didn't set his eyes on the twenty catties of gold, but wanted to meet the strong woman who dominated the Great Tang Dynasty in later generations.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Chang didn't understand his king's thoughts, but as the head of the Prince Jin's mansion, he honestly went outside the gate to invite the family member of Duke Ying to enter.

After hearing that King Jin was willing to meet them, the four of them, Yang Shi and Wu Li, felt relieved.

Soon, he was brought in by the guard at the door.

As soon as they entered the village, the Yang family and Wu Yan were stunned by everything in Li's village.

Lijiazhuang, which is thousands of miles away, has cement houses that look like military formations on one side, and shiny glass houses on the other. Tang's glass greenhouse for growing vegetables in winter.

And in the hopeless Lijiazhuang, there are smooth and neat concrete roads everywhere!
Every farmer who passed by, no matter men, women, old or young, was full of smiles, and these farmers were all wearing bright woolen padded clothes with oily faces, much better food and clothing than their family members!

Such a grand occasion, is it really a farm that can own it?
It's like a fairyland!
The four of them, Yang Shi and Wu Yan sisters, couldn't help being extremely shocked in their hearts!
Especially after entering the gate of King Jin's Courtyard, although the four of them were well-educated, they forced their mouths together.However, the two pairs of eyes were still wide open, looking around non-stop, as if they had just arrived in Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty from the barren land of the Western Regions, and had never seen any barbarians in the world!
"Mrs. Yang, three young ladies, please wait a moment in the main hall, the king and princess will be here soon!"

Stopping in front of a spacious and bright house surrounded by large pieces of bright glass, Li Chang reported slowly.

At the door, two maidservants had already lifted the curtain.

"Thank you, Chief Manager!"

Yang Shi, Wu Yan's mother and daughter came back to their senses, and hurriedly bowed their hands to Li Chang to salute.

Li Chang had a slight smile on his face, but he didn't even dare to say it.

After inviting the four of Yang into the main hall, seeing the two rows of large and clean VIP sofas neatly placed in the main hall, the eyes of the four of Yang and Wu Li, mother and daughter, were shining again.

Then, he was attracted by the plate of melons and fruits placed on the small coffee table beside him.

The mother and daughter of the Yang family did not keep them waiting for a long time, Li Xuan and Cui Mi walked in before half of a plate of melons and fruits was eaten.

Seeing Li Xuan, the mother and daughter of the Yang family were shocked.

However, he still hastened to say hello.

"My concubine is from the Yang family, and I brought my three daughters to visit His Royal Highness Jin Wang, and I have met Jin Wangfei!"

"Madam Yang and the three young ladies don't need to be too polite!"

Li Xuan smiled faintly, and supported Cui Mi to sit on the main seat.

Then, he asked again: "I don't know what the so-called Madam Yang came here this time?"

"Reporting to His Highness King Jin, this concubine came here to thank His Highness King Jin for his kindness in saving us a few days ago outside the city."

Yang replied gratefully, and then looked puzzled again: "It's just, why isn't His Royal Highness Jin Wang and the Jin Wang outside the city a few days ago the same person?"

"The king of Jin outside the city a few days ago was pretending to be the king, so don't bother!"

The corner of Li Xuan's mouth twitched slightly, but he still said calmly.

"I see!"

Mrs. Yang is also a smart person, dare to pretend to be the king of Jin to offend a duke in front of the king of Jin, Tang really can't find a few people.

Thinking about it, Yang shuddered.

"In addition, I heard that His Royal Highness King Jin likes gold, so I brought twenty catties of gold that I have saved for many years as a thank you gift, and please don't dislike it!"

"Madam Yang has a heart!"

A gleam of joy flashed in Li Xuan's eyes.

Then, under the astonished eyes of the mother and daughter of the Yang family, they shook their heads and refused.

"However, I cannot accept this thank you gift!"

"Ying Guogong is a hero of Yuanmou in Taiyuan. He has made great contributions to me, Li Tang. After he passed away, my Li family has been ashamed for not taking good care of his wife and daughter. Now, how can this king accept Mrs. Yang's mother and daughter in Chang'an? The capital of survival?"

On the side, Cui Mi also chimed in: "Sanlang's words are very true, Mrs. Yang must not be like that!"

Hearing this, Yang's face turned bitter.

"This concubine is well aware of the compassionate heart of King Jin and the concubine, but I still have the cheek to implore His Highness the Prince of Jin to accept this thank you gift. In this way, the concubine, mother and daughter, can be safe and sound in Chang'an City, without any problems. Xiaoxiao bullying!"

"Since you have entered Chang'an, who dares to bully you?"

Li Xuan looked angry.

"His Royal Highness, the concubine loses her husband and has nothing to rely on, but she has three beautiful daughters with her. In a place like Chang'an, how can there be no one to covet her?" Yang said without hesitation .

As early as the first time she saw Li Xuan and Cui Mi, Yang's thoughts had quietly changed.

"Don't worry, when I was in Taiyuan, I met the warrior Xun several times, and you can be regarded as the wife and daughter of my old friend. I will release the word today. As long as I am still alive, This king will protect you, if anyone who is not open-minded dares to bully you, this king will directly call the door to seek justice for you!"

Li Xuan said angrily.

"I would like to thank His Royal Highness King Jin for protecting me!"

Yang quickly got up and saluted Li Xuan again in gratitude.

"Mrs. Yang, don't do this. The warriors have contributed to my Li family. Even if this king doesn't protect you, all the clan members of my Li family will protect you!" Li Xuan repeatedly said.

The mother and daughter of the Yang family were all happy, but deep down in their hearts, no one believed Li Xuan's words.

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin, this concubine has nothing to repay this kindness. I can only repay it with the king's favorite gold!" Yang said again.

Li Xuan: "..."

He managed to suppress the greed in his heart, and the old woman hooked him up again.

"Madam Yang knows that twenty catties of gold is enough to exchange for two thousand coins in the Tang Bank!"

"Go back to His Royal Highness King Jin, the old lady knows about this!"

"In this way, these twenty catties of gold are enough for Mrs. Yang to buy a large mansion in Chang'an City, as well as a few servants, so that Mrs. Yang and the three young ladies can live without worrying about food and drink for five years!"

Li Xuan continued.

Hearing this, a trace of hesitation flashed across Yang's face.

The samurai Xun passed away, and the four of them, mother and daughter, had no source of money.Every piece of money on her body is the guarantee of their mother and daughter's life in the future, and it is even the dowry of her three daughters.

Suddenly, a Wu Yan on Yang's left asked directly: "May I ask His Royal Highness Jin Wang, can you buy a small house in His Royal Highness Jin's estate with these twenty catties of gold?"

"kindness?"

Both Li Xuan and Cui Mi were taken aback.

Yang's complexion also changed, "Zi'er?"

Immediately, he hurriedly pleaded guilty to Li Xuan with a face full of panic: "I also ask His Royal Highness Jin Wang to forgive me. This woman is the concubine's second daughter Wu Yan. The youngest daughter grew up in the mansion and is ignorant. I also ask Jin Wang and the princess to forgive me." !"

"It's okay, it's okay!"

Li Xuan chuckled and waved his hand casually.

However, there was a hint of surprise in the depths of his eyes.

"Mother, my daughter is sincere!"

However, what Yang didn't expect was that the second daughter, who was always smart, turned out to be very stubborn this time.

"My daughter, elder sister, and third younger sister are not perfect in appearance, but they are not inferior to those daughters of everyone. Otherwise, I won't be unable to stay in Duke Ying's mansion. If I wait to go back like this, the city of Chang'an I don't know how many animals like Wu Weiliang and Wu Huaiyun are coveting.

In the whole world, only Zhuangzi like His Royal Highness King Jin can keep my mother and daughter innocent!"

Wu Yan said with a sad face.

Hearing this, Yang opened her mouth with a helpless expression on her face, but she didn't continue to blame her second daughter, but looked at Li Xuan expectantly.

Li Xuan remained silent.

She really deserves to be the future empress, the timing is really tight.

Without turning his head to look, Li Xuan could know that the eyes of his princess must be filled with sympathy.

Cui Mi, who was born in a powerful family, should be the most able to understand the miserable situation of the mother and daughter of the Yang family.

"The daughter of the people just wants to beg for a place to live, and please be kind to His Royal Highness King Jin and Princess Wang!" Wu Yan hurriedly stood up and begged again.

"Sanlang~"

Cui Mi gently tugged on Li Xuan's sleeve, feeling a little relented.

You are leading a wolf into the house!
Li Xuan looked helplessly at his silly wife, but nodded.

"Mr. Yang, Wu Yan, you must know that there are countless people in Chang'an City who want to own a house in this king's manor, but this king has never agreed.

It's just that you are the wife and daughter of the warrior Xun, and you are being bullied, so this king can't ignore it.The king can make an exception and allow you to own a house in this king's manor, but you still need to know that the house in this king's manor is expensive, only the two-story courtyard for ordinary households to live in, with four rooms above and below, occupying an area For a third of the land, twenty guns are needed.

And if it is a larger small courtyard, it will cost more money.Moreover, after you come to Lijiazhuang, if you want to make money, you have to work! "

"His Royal Highness, that house only needs [-] strings?"

What surprised Li Xuan was that after hearing Li Xuan's words, Yang Shi and Wu Yan were surprised.

"No, twenty guan is the construction cost. If you live in Benwang Zhuangzi, you will inevitably occupy the few fields in this Wangzhuang. According to the price of the fields around Chang'an City, one mu of land needs fifty guan, three cents. The land needs sixteen punctures!" Li Xuan explained.

"My lord, Mrs. Yang is willing to use twenty catties of gold to buy a ten-acre house in Dawang Manor!"

Yang's face brightened, and he said hastily.

"No!"

Li Xuan shook his head very simply, "The land in this Wangzhuang is limited, and the largest house that can be given to you can only be three acres."

Yang was taken aback, and quickly nodded in response: "So, that concubine will use twenty catties of gold to buy a three-acre house!"

"For a three-acre house, the cost of the homestead is 150 guan, and the construction cost is 180 guan. The total is 330 guan, so you can pay 330 guan."

Li Xuankou made some calculations and said slowly.

The Yang family and Wu Yan couldn't help being stunned again, they grew up so big, they have seen all kinds of dignitaries, but they have never seen such a 'real' King Jin!

Similarly, Cui Mi's face turned red beside her, and Li Xuan's serious way of counting money made her feel a little ashamed.

Unable to bear it, he quietly tugged on Li Xuan's sleeve.

However, this time Li Xuan ignored Cui Mi, but directly shouted: "Li Chang!"

"Your Majesty!"

"Go to the village to find a piece of land of three mu, and build a courtyard for Duke Ying's family!"

After speaking, Li Xuan looked at Yang Shi again.

"Mrs. Yang, just hand over 330 coins to the housekeeper. Then, you can discuss with the housekeeper what kind of courtyard you want to build and how many rooms you need!

However, it will take at least half a year to build a courtyard, during which Mrs. Yang still needs to find a courtyard to live in! "

"Thank you, Your Highness King Jin!"

Yang quickly stood up and saluted in gratitude.

"There's no need for that!"

Li Xuan waved it around, and then said a few more words to Yang Shi, and left with Cui Mi.

Although Cui Mi was suspected of luring wolves into the house, Wu Yan also had the voluntary act of sending sheep into the tiger's mouth.

As long as you enter the Li Family Manor, you will never want to enter the palace again.

As for wanting to be admitted to the palace by Li Shimin in the future, and then by that kid Li Zhi...?
However, according to Li Chengqian's way of development, Empress Changsun did not die of illness early, nor did Yu Zhining, Kong Yingda, and Zhang Xuansu, the old stubborn urgings, Li Shimin was much less strict, and more importantly, Li Chengqian followed him. Over the past few years, his face has grown a lot thicker?

As long as there are no accidents, Li Chengqian's mentality will not collapse, and this kid Li Zhi will not be able to take advantage of it!
Then, Wu Yan would never even think about overthrowing Datang!

Thinking about it, the corners of Li Xuan's mouth could not help but bend slightly.

"Sigh~"

Just thinking about it, Li Xuan suddenly felt a sharp pain in his waist.

Turning his head to look, his princess was staring at him with evil eyes.

"Mi'er, what's wrong with you?"

"Did Sanlang take a fancy to those young ladies from the Wu family?"

Cui Mi said unhappy.

"how can that be?"

Li Xuan suddenly felt a headache, and quickly explained: "Mi'er, you and I have been husband and wife for several years, and you don't know what kind of person your husband is? Although he is a bit greedy for money, he is never lustful!"

Hearing this, Cui Mi nodded slightly, Li Xuan was telling the truth.

In the Tang Dynasty, there is no honorable man who has three wives and four concubines. Many people still have women outside. Only my own Sanlang has been doting on her for so many years.

"Then why is San Lang so soft-hearted towards the mother and daughter of the Yang family? Moreover, San Lang is particularly concerned about the second daughter of the Wu family?"

Suddenly, Cui Mi's heart moved: "However, the mother and daughter of the Yang family are all beautiful, and they are not inferior to the daughters of any big family. Although the second daughter of the Wu family is still a little young, she is a beauty. When she grows up, she will definitely grow up. She is a beauty who brings disaster to the country and the people!"

"Furthermore, the three sisters of the Wu family are all excellent in terms of appearance and family background, and they are all easy to give birth to. If the king takes a fancy to it, it's okay..."

Li Xuan was also moved by Cui Mi's words, "Since this is the case, Mi'er is not afraid of attracting wolves into the house!"

"Since the concubine entered Jinwang's mansion for so many years, Sanlang has never married a child or concubine, let alone other concubines. Now many people in the Li clan are concubines who are jealous women!"

Cui Mi said helplessly.

"It just so happens that there are three poor women with good backgrounds. If the king is willing, the concubine is very welcome!"

As for bringing wolves into the house, Cui Mi would not pay attention to the three sisters whose natal family had no influence and who were not favored by the original family!
