Chapter 638 The matter of crossing the door (second change)

After nightfall, the Jinxiu Palace began to light the lanterns.

One after another palace lanterns were hung high, illuminating all sides brightly.

The palace people had already withdrawn, only Li Chongjiu and Li Zhiwan were in the palace.

The bowl in front of Li Chongjiu was already empty. He put down his chopsticks and frowned slightly.

Li Chongjiu heard what Li Zhiwan said just now, and knew that she would never be able to hide this matter from her.However, Li Chongjiu did not hide it. On the contrary, he said: "Since it is sent by the Cui family, it is a sincere heart, you just accept it, and I have a care in my heart."

After hearing this, Li Zhiwan asked: "What's the relationship with this? If you don't explain it clearly, how can I rest assured? You have to tell me the truth, you are not allowed to hide anything."

Li Zhiwan's tone was half threatening, half coquettish.

Li Chongjiu glanced at Li Zhiwan and said: "Okay, I'm afraid of you, it's not because of the vacancy of Minister Zuo Pushe, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Cui family of Qinghe, Gao family of Bohai, Zhao family of Zhuojun, and Lu family of Fanyang Now they all intend to go one step further and compete for this position. The Cui family of Qinghe wants to promote Cui Junsu, the sheriff of Qinghe County, to the Minister of Ministers this time, so they have been working on this matter, but they didn't expect that the joints would come to you. "

"As for this gift list, it's a big deal, but to Qinghe Cui's family, it's just a drop in the bucket."

Li Zhiwan suddenly said: "So that's how it is. Although I fall in love with Concubine Cui Chu, after all, we have very short acquaintances, and we can't talk about friendship. The Cui family doesn't even let go of this relationship, so it's quite troublesome."

Li Chongjiu said with a smile: "So you accept it. Don't want it for nothing."

"Why? Could it be that Your Majesty also intends to borrow money from the Cui family."
Li Chongjiu nodded, thinking that Li Zhiwan is really smart.Li Chongjiu smiled and said: "That's right, the Cui family has to rely on you, but on the other hand, I also have to rely on the Cui family. The Boling Cui family is deeply rooted in Guanzhong, but they have already joined Li Tang, so Qinghe Cui It must be wooed, high-ranking officials can't be stingy with their salary. In addition, it is also good to use Qinghe Cui's family to balance the situation in the court."

After hearing this, Li Zhiwan stood up and said: "You don't have to explain these words to me so clearly. Come, let me have another meal with you."

Li Chongjiu handed over the bowl, knowing that once the topic turned to Li Tang, Li Zhiwan would be slightly unhappy, and subconsciously changed the subject.This layer of estrangement is always in the bottom of the two hearts.

"My father wants to see you tomorrow." Li Chongjiu said to Li Zhiwan suddenly after taking a few bites of the rice.

"Why now?" Li Zhiwan asked in surprise.
Li Chongjiu smiled mysteriously: "You will know when the time comes."

"Little Nine."

"I said, you will know tomorrow."

At dawn the next day, Li Zhiwan came to Chongyang Palace to meet Li Hu.Linshuo Palace is only one-tenth the size of Luoyang Palace, and the place is not big, so it can be reached within a few steps without even using a chariot.

In Chongyang Palace, there have never been many palace maids and servants. This is because Li Hu has always disliked being served by others.There is still a small field planted in the yard, and it is said that Li Hu planted it when he had nothing to do.After the palace people heard about the Taishang Emperor's farming, they spread it as a joke.Even Jian Xue talked to Li Zhiwan over there.

Now Li Hu is sitting in the hall in plain clothes.

Li Zhiwan stepped forward, Yingying bowed down and said: "My daughter-in-law pays homage to the Supreme Emperor."

Seeing Li Zhiwan, Li Hu quickly helped him up with both hands and said, "Stop kneeling, it's cold on the ground."

Li Hu lifted Li Zhiwan up and laughed at himself: "I've been a commoner for a long time, and I'm not used to being called the Supreme Emperor, just like this clothes, and the palace sewed them for me, it's good, But I always wear it. You see, I have been wearing the clothes I have worn for several years, and they are a little worn out, but they are comfortable to wear."

"There is a saying that people are not as good as old, and clothes are not as good as new. I don't think this is true."

Li Zhiwan pursed her lips and smiled when she heard Li Hu say this: "The Supreme Emperor is right. My daughter-in-law has been educated."

Li Hu said with a smile: "What is taught and not taught, I am just a family chatting, don't be restrained. But people are not as good as old, clothes are not as new, the first half of the sentence is still correct. The past ten years have been ups and downs, you After all, Xiaojiu and I knew each other first, when I went to Li's mansion to propose marriage, I regarded you as my daughter-in-law."

Hearing Li Hu's words, Li Zhiwan felt grateful from the bottom of her heart, then lowered her head and said, "Your Majesty, it was my father who made you feel wronged in the matter of proposing marriage back then."

Seeing Li Zhiwan feeling a little sad, Li Hu said, "Don't say that, it's all over, isn't it good that you and Xiao Jiu can be together now? Yes, I was always uncomfortable with this matter before, but Seeing that you and Xiaojiu are finally married now. I have nothing to be unhappy about. It’s not that there is a saying that all hardships come with joy.”

Having said that, Li Hu paused and said: "The marriage between you and Xiao Jiu has not yet been done. Xiao Jiu is really serious. I will scold him in the future. Now you are an imperial concubine, and you don't even officially marry him." How long does it take to procrastinate like this, what kind of reason is it that the name is not right and the word is not right? Without a ceremony of passing the door, it is not a rule, let alone the royal family, even ordinary people marry concubines, and they are not so hasty. "

Li Zhiwan shook her head, and said hastily: "Your Majesty, don't blame Xiao Jiu, this is what I asked for. After all, I am Li Yuan's daughter. Li Tang and I, Da Zhao, are now enemies. If I marry Xiao Jiu, we must It will lead to a verbal dispute in the court, and one more thing is worse than one less thing. I just want to be with Xiao Jiu, and I won’t ask him for anything else.”

"Confused. You are confused, and Xiao Jiu is even more confused." Li Hu was immediately very unhappy.

Li Zhiwan lowered her head and said: "Your Majesty, I know you love me, but please understand my painstaking efforts."
Li Hu said: "You don't understand this matter, but what will people in the world think about it? How can you get into the genealogy without going through the door? What's more, you will have a son and a half with Xiaojiu in the future. How can they hold their heads up?" Woolen cloth?"
Li Zhiwan didn't speak when she heard this.

Li Huyu said to Li Zhiwan earnestly: "When two people are together, it is enough for them to be in love with each other, but it is different when they are married. The marriage is a good relationship between the two families, which proves that the good relationship will last forever. From then on, we should live in IKEA, and in his youth Gua Mianmian. It's not that you marry Xiao Jiu, but that I will be your father from now on, and Xiao Jiu's brothers and sisters will be your brothers and sisters, and they can really enter my family."

After hearing Li Hu's words, Li Zhiwan's eyes suddenly burst into tears.

Seeing Li Zhiwan so hastily, Li Hu said: "My good daughter-in-law, did I speak too harshly just now, don't take it to the bottom of your heart."

Li Zhiwan shook her head and said: "How could it be, I'm touched, since that's the case, just listen to the Supreme Emperor."

Li Hu smiled happily: "That's right, this is a good wife of my Li family."
