Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 49

Dugu Lanruo gestured in front of the three little sisters of the Liu family: "It's only been less than a month, and they seem to have grown taller."

"Sister, I'll be ten years old after the new year." Ruyun forgot etiquette again, and asked Sanniang Liu Rumei to pull her ear aside, and taught her a lesson.

The third mother of the Liu family, Liu Rumei, will be fifteen after the new year, and Ruhua will be fourteen after the new year.

They are not considered children anymore, and they have learned a lot these days. Before knowing that the family is different, there must be rules in every gesture. Without rules, some people will look down on Liu Mu, make fun of General Qin, and make fun of Elder Sister for not teaching them well.

"Li Bi, make a trip to Chang'an for my palace. Send ten packages of green materials to the palace, and then send them to the palace for the incense wash. Especially the green materials, I must personally deliver them to the saints with my palace's handwriting. There must be no mistakes. I think there is no need to say what to say, you should know it in your heart."

Li Bi is different from the sisters of the Liu family, he is very clear about the identity and status of Princess Changping.

The current oldest Princess Changsha is several times worse than this Princess Changping in terms of treatment.

Not to mention Princess Changsha, the eldest daughter of a sage, among all the princesses of the clan, only Princess Pingyangzhao was treated better than the present one.

So Li Bi's attitude was very respectful: "Yes, I will do it well with my heart."

"Chang'an..." Si Niang Ruhua had an infatuated expression. As ordinary people, Chang'an would not even imagine what Chang'an would look like to them.

With a thought in mind, Dugu Lanruo pointed to Li Bi's picture-perfect Si Niang.

"Your servant understands. Si Niang is a better gift giver than your servant."

Dugu Lanruo nodded, indicating to take her to the various kiln districts to see for herself, and then go back to the mansion.

The green material in the kiln is opened one by one. After the kiln is opened, the green material is packed in a cylindrical straw bag tied with hay. At present, there are very few open kilns, and only the horses raised by the four generals have the opportunity to eat. arrive.

Because of Dugu Lanruo's request, even Yu Chigong didn't tell King Qin Li Shimin about the green material.

The things sent to the palace are different from ordinary ones, and Li Bi needs to prepare one or two things.

"Si Niang, let's go to Chang'an together, give gifts to the saint for Her Royal Highness, and go to the West Market to buy some New Year's goods for the family, how about it?"

"En? En!" Si Niang Ruyu only hesitated for a moment, then nodded vigorously.

Sanniang Rumei called Siniang aside: "Chang'an is no ordinary place, it's very bad to not know the rules there."

"I'm going to find the eldest sister." Si Niang Ruyu went to the eldest sister to help her talk, she wanted to go, wanted to see Chang'an City.

Li Bi didn't bother to talk to the sisters of the Liu family, he still had a lot of preparations to do when he entered Chang'an this time.

Having the opportunity to face the saint is also something he looks forward to very much.How to speak, how to report, etc., he needs to think carefully, prepare in advance, and then take it home to consult and revise.

Besides, Liu Mu entered Hengzhou City and lived in the residence provided by Li Daozong.

That night, Li Daozong had people prepare food and wine, and personally entertained Liu Mu.

Thirty days after drinking, Li Daozong asked, "I am a great general in the Tang Dynasty, and I have a cloud of talents, but why did I send you here?"

"My brother-in-law is Duke Yi." Liu Mu had a complacent expression on his face.

"Ha, ha, ha." Li Daozong didn't laugh at all, he just said three times: "Do you know who I am?"

"I can't say it, because I'm afraid you'll beat me. My brother-in-law isn't here right now, so there's nowhere to reason after being beaten." Liu Mu shook his head, picking good-looking mutton in the pot.

Li Daozong blocked Liu Mu's chopsticks with his chopsticks: "Just say it, I promise not to hit you."

"I'm stupid, I'm afraid that if I say something bad, you won't be happy."

"I won't be unhappy."

"Okay, I've said it." Liu Mu put down his chopsticks: "Actually, we are quite alike. We have one big thing in common."

"What is it?"

"They all divorced because they were once poor and were rejected by others, because they couldn't come up with a bride price. The difference is, I'm a small citizen. You haven't been the county king for a year, but you have become the city king."

When it came to retiring the engagement, Li Daozong's face was dark.

But as I said before, no matter what Liu Mu said, he would not be angry, so this would not happen easily.Just asked: "How much dowry does the woman want from you?"

"Three stones of high-quality millet, plus three sheep and a piece of silk."

Boo..., Li Daozong spit out a mouthful of wine, but fortunately Liu Mu had prepared in advance and blocked it all with his sleeve.

Liu Mu continued to speak: "I also know that the family you are looking for is a branch of the Cui family. They are not called married women, they are selling marriages, so they rely on their five surnames. But in my opinion, you are probably also a clan Among them is the poorest prince, and there is a younger brother who is a prodigal, and he is very fond of ostentation."

"Who told you?" Li Daozong asked with a dark face.

"I'm going to make a new marriage proposal. It is estimated that the dowry gift I will give will be frighteningly expensive." Liu Mu sipped the wine, which was as light as water, and happily chatted with Li Daozong.

Li Daozong couldn't figure out who it was, so he just asked Liu Mu: "Who is it?"

"This has nothing to do with today's chat. Anyway, you are the poorest king. Maybe you are also the poorest if you add the county king. So we are destined, and we are all poor ghosts. Anyway, you promised not to beat me, so it's for the poor." Ghost toast." Liu Mu raised the cup, but Li Daozong put the cup on the table.

"Sure enough, I'm angry. And you are a prince, so it's okay to look down on me, a countryman." Liu Mu didn't care at all.

At this time, Li Daozong filled up the wine for Liu Mu: "I just want to know what is the secret of the cloth bag you gave Duke Yi."

"No, I didn't give it. You must have read it wrong." Willow would not admit it.

But who knew, Liu Mu did it on purpose, and this time the prey was Li Daozong.Liu Mu felt that this was a gift from the heavens, but the current general in charge of Yunzhou was Li Daozong, what is this not the prey he sent to his door?
Li Daozong said again: "Tell me the truth, even if I am the poorest prince, I still have some family resources. I will give you everything you need as a betrothal gift."

Liu Mu chuckled, and said in his heart that you can't afford it.

The bride price for marrying Princess Changping must be the highest in the Tang Dynasty.Moreover, there are several big mountains pressing down on it, and the bride price alone is probably not even allowed to enter the door.

Liu Mu shook his head: "No."

"Then, I want to know the truth."

"Okay, I'll make a serial request. You are a prince and a big shot. As long as you agree, you can't regret it. I'll tell the truth." Liu Mu made a fool of himself.

Li Daozong's right hand: "High five is an oath."

Liu Mu clapped hands with Li Daozong, and then said: "I am a counselor, you must keep this secret. Yi Guogong is my eldest brother-in-law, and what I like most is counting money until my hand cramps, and sleeping until I wake up naturally. My brother-in-law is protecting me, so I naturally have to do something for my eldest sister, don't you think so?"
