Chapter 306 Proton
After Li Tai received the imperial edict allowing him to open the mansion, he was full of joy. Hearing that there were loud voices in the court opposing him to open the mansion, Li Tai was very worried.

Concubine Pu suggested that Li Tai send his two sons, Li Xin brothers, to Chang'an as hostages in order to show that they have no disobedience.

In the winter of December in the 23rd year of Zhenguan, the carriages of Li Xin, the eldest son of Pu Wang Li Tai, and Li Hui, the second son of Xin'an County King Li Hui, slowly drove into Chang'an City.

This was his first return to Chang'an since Li Tai was exiled, but he returned to Chang'an City as a proton.

This is the last month of the 23rd year of Zhenguan. Starting next year, the Yuan will be changed and a new year name will be replaced.

Opening the curtain of the carriage, I saw heavy snow falling outside, and the entire Chang'an City seemed to be covered in silver.

In the freezing weather, there are many fewer people on the streets, and everyone stays at home with nothing to do. Burning a stove is warmer and more comfortable than outside.

Li Xin and Li Hui tightened their silk cotton coats, which were filled with a thick layer of cotton, and their hands were folded into the sleeves. Even so, they still felt cold.

"Brother, do you think we will have a good experience when we come to Chang'an this time!" Li Hui was a little worried.

After all, their father had competed with the present Majesty for the position of crown prince. Would the present Majesty forget what happened back then?

Li Hui was worried that Li Chengqian would settle accounts after the autumn and blame his brothers for his father's faults, so their visit to Chang'an this time might be a disaster.

"Don't talk nonsense, no matter what, the current Majesty is still our uncle. If he wants to make things difficult for us, the result will be the same no matter where we are." Li Xin put down the curtain and said to Li Hui.

He was also worried that Li Chengqian would settle accounts with them, but what was the use of being afraid, the whole Tang Dynasty belonged to them.

They come, the security!

It's a blessing, not a curse, and it's a disaster that can't be avoided. Anyway, stretching out your head is a knife, and shrinking your head is also a knife. It's better to be open-minded.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the palace, Li Xin and Li Hui got out of the carriage, and an eunuch rushed up to meet them.

"Your Majesty, King of the County, Your Majesty is waiting for the two of you in the Hall of Liangyi, please come with your slaves." After saluting, the eunuch turned around and led the way.

Li Xin and Li Hui followed closely behind the eunuch and headed for Liangyi Hall. No one said a word along the way.

After entering Liangyi Hall, the second Li Xin brother saw their ninth uncle Jin Wang Li Zhi, third uncle Li Ke, sixth uncle Li Yin, uncle Li Xiang, Li Jue, and Li Sujie brother three.

Four brothers Li Ren, Li Wei, Li Kun, and Li Fan from the third uncle's family, three brothers from the sixth uncle's family, and several brothers from the ninth uncle's family.

Seeing Jin Wang Li Zhi, Li Xin felt an indescribable joy in his heart.

After all, back then, Li Xin had the best relationship with this uncle who was a few years older than him.

"I've met the third uncle, the sixth uncle, and the ninth uncle!" Li Xin and Li Hui saluted Li Ke and the three of them.

Li Ke nodded as a response, but Li Yin ignored them. When Li Tai was favored, he often bullied his younger brother.

Li Zhi smiled slightly and said, "You've worked hard all the way! Take your seat quickly! Your Majesty will be there soon."

"No!" Li Xin replied, and greeted each other with several cousins.

"My son, the king please!" The eunuch led them to their seats and sat down, then quietly waited for Li Chengqian's arrival.

"Your Majesty is here! Your Highnesses are here!" Just as the two of Li Xin were seated, the eunuch's shouts sounded outside the Hall of Appearances.

Everyone hurriedly got up and bowed to welcome Li Chengqian and his concubines Su Shi and Xiao Shi who came in from outside the hall.

Li Chengqian plans to wait until next year when the Yuan Dynasty is changed, and then formally canonize the Su family as empress and the Xiao family as Concubine Xiao.

"I see Your Majesty! I have seen your Highnesses!" Li Ke and others hurriedly saluted.

Li Chengqian and Su Shi came to the throne and sat down, while Xiao Shi sat aside.

"Free of courtesy! Everyone sit down!" Li Chengqian said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" the emperor said, and everyone thanked En and sat down.

It was snowing heavily outside the Liangyi Hall, and it was terribly cold, while the inside of the Liangyi Hall was very warm, as if the outside and the outside were two different worlds.

"Xin'er, Hui'er, the two of you lived and slept all the way, I'm afraid you have suffered a lot! You have been away from Chang'an for so many years, and now you have come back to adapt to the environment in Chang'an." Li Chengqian laughed.

Li Xin was the oldest of these nephews, only three years younger than Li Zhi.

Even though Li Tai is a fat man, he is the one who is most acquainted among his brothers. Even Li Chengqian has not tasted a woman yet, he is already a father.

"Thank you for your majesty's concern. I am not so delicate and can adapt to any environment. The environment in Chang'an is better than other places. Naturally, I can adapt more." Li Xin replied.

"Don't be nervous, today's banquet is not only a family banquet, but also a banquet for the two of you brothers to clean up the dust."

"Since you have returned to Chang'an, you can stay here with peace of mind. No matter what, you are considered to have returned to your hometown."

"Your father Li Tai's former Wei Palace is still vacant, so you two brothers can move back to live! I'm worried that you won't be used to living in other places." Li Chengqian said with a smile.

It looked like an uncle was in relationship with his nephew, but Li Xin and his brother were still vigilant, and they didn't get tears in their eyes when he said a few words.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Li Xin hurriedly saluted and thanked him.

"Everyone, don't just stand still, come and raise a glass to clean up Xiner and Huier, and have a drink." Li Chengqian picked up the wine glass on the table, which was still steaming.

Everyone hurriedly toasted and drank with Li Chengqian. Under Li Chengqian's persuasion, the family banquet went smoothly.

"Have you got Xiner this year? Did you ever get married to the young lady of that family?" After drinking three rounds and eating five flavors, everyone was half full. When everyone was doing homework, Li Chengqian asked about Li Xin. The problem.

"Return to Your Majesty! I'm just eighteen this year, and I'll be nineteen this year. When I was in Taizhou, my father had already chosen a marriage for me." Li Xin said.

"Oh! Which family's little lady is she who can fall into your eyes, but has she ever been married?" Li Chengqian laughed.

"It's the daughter of my aunt, Princess Linchuan, her cousin, Zhou Shi, who got married last year, and the matter has already been notified to the court," Li Xin said.

"Why didn't you bring your concubine to Chang'an this time, I haven't seen this niece for a long time!" Li Chengqian said.

"When I came to Chang'an this time, I couldn't be filial to my father, mother and concubine, so I let her stay beside my father, mother and concubine to fulfill my filial piety, so I didn't bring him with me." Li Xin said.

"Your Majesty! Now Hengshan King Li Xiang is not young, and it's time to talk about marriage!" Li Zhi said suddenly.

He directly interrupted the conversation between Li Chengqian and Li Xin, and turned the topic to Li Xiang. Li Zhi and Li Xin really have a deep affection for uncle and nephew.
