The rise of the prince

Chapter 506
Li Xingzhou was very busy all day in the first day of the lunar new year. Today is not the same as in the past. The lintel of the palace, which was sparsely populated in the past, has almost been broken down. The palace has reappeared, and many people naturally came to the door.

Among them, various relatives came first. The palace banquet last night probably made many people smell that it was unusual, so they fawned over them.

And his uncle Li Yu brought his little cousin as usual, and Li Xingzhou specially received them.

Li Yu helped him during the most difficult time in the palace, and even sent him Mei Xue. As a guardian in name, maybe he was indeed cowardly, but to him, it was already very good.

Li Yu is the prince born to Concubine Tian, ​​and Concubine Tian is from the Jingxi Tian family, which shows how deep-rooted the Tian family is.The prince and concubine have the Tian family, and in addition to controlling almost all businesses on Jingxi Road, the Tian family is so strong that it is beyond imagination.

Li Xingzhou entertained everyone, and then returned the gift. Later in the afternoon, he let Shiyu take care of the family affairs, and went out to pay New Year's greetings by himself. The first ones he went to were his relatives, his cousin Li Yu, and the emperor Li Yu.

Then came the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gillian hadn't seen him for a long time, she almost shed tears when she saw him, but she was obviously more reserved than He Qian, she just bowed her head to say hello, De Gong walked away tactfully, leaving space for the young couple .

A-Jiao just stepped forward and was hugged by him. It's been a long time since I saw her. A-Jiao is still the same, happily pinching her fingers and whispering to him about her absence. When it comes to lovesickness in her heart, she is also very literary. When it comes to marriage , her little face was completely red, and she didn't have the courage to continue.There is a bookish look in her words and deeds, but she is still young, so she also looks immature.

She told Li Xingzhou about following the arrangement of her family and moving back from the palace, which she thought was reasonable.She abides by the rules of etiquette carefully and conscientiously.

Because time was limited, he stayed with A-Jiao for a while and then bid farewell to the prime minister's mansion and went to He's mansion.

He Zhao received him in person, with a dark face and not very good-looking, and the two sides greeted each other symbolically. Li Xingzhou couldn't help it: "Master He, I finally came here, and you can't even serve tea."

He Zhao snorted before calling people to serve tea. He hesitated to speak, as if he had a lot to say and couldn't say it. Finally, with a sullen face for a long time, he managed to hold back a sentence: "Be nicer to Xiaoqian in the future."

Li Xingzhou was speechless after saying that his face became even darker. As for what, it seemed like he was going to die. Isn't his daughter going to marry sooner or later?

But then he also saw the woman who asked He Zhao to prepare for the reunion, a young woman in her thirties, she was indeed very pretty, she talked and laughed well, and her gestures were graceful and magnanimous, which was really out of tune with the He family.

He Zhao has a paralyzed face, is serious and unsmiling at all times; He Qian is careless, wielding a gun and sticking a stick, not like a lady at all; now there is such a gentle and decent person.

Her family background is naturally worthy of He Zhao.

After talking for a while, He Zhao slowly talked about the Black Mountain bandits, mostly saying "Although recklessness and impulsiveness is not advisable, but the result is not bad, customers must not think that they are powerful because of this", anyway. Just don't say nice things.

As the saying goes, good medicine is good for the disease, and good advice is good for the ear. Li Xingzhou is not a child, and he knows who is good for him and who is bad for him.

The most common mistake young people make is that they can't tell who is the best person for them. They only rely on instinct without experience.

Just like Lao He, if he doesn't say a nice word on the surface, even if he rarely says a word, he still has to point it out.But Li Xingzhou knew in his heart that He Zhaoru didn't regard him as his own family, who would take the risk of offending him to remind him.

It's over if you just flatter, you don't offend others, and you can still get a good impression.

But it is precisely because He Zhao has a place for him in his heart and really cares about him, that's why He Zhao said those unpleasant and unintelligible things to him.

No matter how verbose He Zhao was, Li Xingzhou nodded to express his understanding.

After talking for a while, He Zhao's complexion improved a lot, and he said unhappily, "I've told you so much, and I don't know if it's a waste of words. This old man is self-aware, so it's impossible that King Pingnan came to see me." He waved his hand and asked someone to take him to see He Qian.

He saw the little girl who came back from Beijing North in the backyard.

He Qian and Gillian had completely different reactions when they saw him. The little girl pouted and looked unhappy when she saw him, because He Zhao didn't allow her to go to the palace these days, obviously she didn't care about those rules and customs.

"Why didn't you come earlier, you came back yesterday." He Qian was dissatisfied, and then went into the room to find her sword: "Wait a minute, I will go quietly with you, this place is not fun at all, that new woman treats me Not bad, but... I'm still awkward."

"She's your stepmother." Li Xingzhou rubbed his little head amusedly.

He Qian snorted, "That's my choice, not me."

Li Xingzhou shook his head, and then took her hand: "I'll go tell your father, but I have to come back before dark, today is the first day of the new year, worshiping the ancestors and paying New Year's greetings, so don't stay in other people's homes."

He Qian nodded obediently, "As long as I'm not bored here, I'll listen to you."

Li Xingzhou thought, I am afraid that labor and management will become bad guys again
Sure enough, when he went to see He Zhao and said that he would take He Qian out to celebrate the New Year, He Zhao's expression was very bad, but he finally nodded in agreement.

After leaving He Mansion, the carriage headed towards the last mansion.

General's House.

When He Qian left the house, she looked like a bird out of a cage, excitedly looking at the street outside the car window, and then realized that the two of them were carrying a carriage. It stands to reason that a woman who has not left the court cannot ride in the same carriage with outsiders. car
The little girl was rarely shy.

Li Xingzhou pulled her over brazenly: "It's okay, anyway, we will be a family from now on."

"Hmph, that's not it. At least not yet." The carefree little girl blushed.

"I didn't expect it to be the prince." Zhong Daoyu arched his hands, today is the first day of the new year, but he is the only one in the small courtyard, and there is an older servant woman.

Li Xingzhou handed the things in his hands to the servants, and took He Qian to sit down: "I didn't expect the great general to be like this."

The afternoon sun is just right, and the small courtyard is warm and lulls one to sleep.

Zhong Daoyu was not angry either: "If the prince comes to make fun of the old man, then go back."

Li Xingzhou looked around the deserted courtyard, "I'm just here to pay New Year's greetings, Happy New Year General."

Zhong Daoyu was a little surprised, obviously thinking that he came with malicious intentions, and nodded slowly: "Thank you, my lord."

After Li Xingzhou finished speaking, he stood up, not planning to stay for a long time, cupped his hands and said, "Farewell."

Then he left with a puzzled little girl.

Long after King Pingnan left, Zhong Daoyu was still frowning. Logically speaking, he and King Pingnan had a big feud, so why did King Pingnan suddenly come to pay him New Year's greetings?

Thinking about all the amazing methods that King Pingnan had used before, he was vaguely worried. Did he play some invisible tricks on himself?Then he felt relieved, he was half buried in the ground, so he was still afraid of these things.

Or... I use the heart of a villain to save the belly of a gentleman?
Zhong Daoyu shook his head, there is such a possibility in the world that there is a gentleman like King Pingnan, if he can be considered a gentleman, there are a lot of them on the street.

At this moment, the woman came in happily holding King Pingnan's gift box: "Master, it's gold! What King Pingnan sent is gold. Looking at the weight, it can be exchanged for hundreds of coins."

Zhong Daoyu was even more surprised, could it be that he is really a gentleman?
