The Emperor's Son-in-Law

Dakang Palace.

Although His Majesty the Emperor returned to the inner palace on the excuse of being sleepy.

But he didn't go to any of the concubines' palaces, nor did he go to the bedroom.

Instead, he returned to the study.

"Your Majesty, there is news from Shenji Mansion."

"Dong Guo Chang and the Crown Prince have brought Princess Bei Xia back to the mansion."

"The Northern Xia mission also returned to Sifangguan under the arrangement of Master Yuwen of Honglu Temple."

"There was no contact with others during this period."

Li Gaofu hurriedly entered the study from the door, lowered his head and said respectfully.

"The people in the Sifang Pavilion and the informants who are connected with them."

"Have you all been watched to death by me?"

The emperor looked at the memorial and asked without raising his head.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, everything is under the control of Shenji Mansion."

Li Gaofu replied.

"That Xiao Wangshan, have you found out the details?"

The emperor continued to ask.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Xiao Wangshan has been watched by the Shenji Mansion's spies in the Yeting Palace for the past ten years."

"So far, we have not found any hidden evildoings on his part."

"Your Majesty can rest assured that he will serve as the prince of Duke Changguo."

Li Gaofu replied.

"What I want is more than peace of mind."

"But absolute peace of mind."

"Have the Ministry of Revenue sort out one hundred thousand shi of grain as soon as possible and hand it over to the Northern Xia envoy to take back to Northern Xia."

"During this period, those people from Northern Xia have not seen anyone in the Imperial City."

"I have to keep an eye on the Shenji Mansion carefully to make sure there are no mistakes!"

said the emperor.

"My slave obeys the order."

"Also, let Duan Chun rest for two days."

"The day after tomorrow, he was formally summoned to the outer court to await the edict."

"This kid is very smart, we can't let him idle."

The emperor smiled thoughtfully.

"My slave obeys the order."

Li Gaofu smiled secretly in his heart, this young master.

I'm afraid it will be troublesome in the future...

…

Had a wonderful sleep.

It wasn't until the morning of the next day that Duan Chun yawned and walked out of the bedroom.

Tao'er and Xing'er hurried over to wash and tidy up the young master's clothes.

Looking at these two beauties aged 17 or 18, Duan Chun suddenly felt in a good mood.

Hugging left and right, hands wandering around...

This made Tao'er and Xing'er irritated, just as the housekeeper came in a hurry at the entrance of the courtyard.

Duan Chun had no choice but to let go of the two girls and looked at the housekeeper curiously.

"Young Master, Crown Prince Shouhou and Prince Daihou of the outer court would like to see you."

The steward said respectfully.

"Qu Heng, Wu Xian?"

"Why are they here today?"

The appearance of two aristocratic young men immediately appeared in Duan Chun's mind.

Qu Heng is the eldest son of Shouhou, the pioneer general under his father's command.

Wu Xian's father was also a general under his father's command, and he followed his father to make many military exploits.

Because of his military exploits, he was granted the title of Daihou by His Majesty.

He is the same age as Duan Chun and grew up together since childhood.

They are the closest childhood acquaintances.

The last night when Duan Chun suffered a head injury, it was a set-up between them.

He asked Duan Chun to secretly drink wine with him, so this kind of thing would happen.

Duan Chun has never seen these two boys since he woke up.

"I'll go see them right away."

"Let them wait a moment."

Duan Chun said.

"As you command, young master."

The housekeeper turned and left, and Duan Chun quickly asked Tao'er and Xing'er to bring breakfast.

After quickly filling his stomach, Duan Chun put on a gorgeous robe and strode towards the outer courtyard.

When I came to the wing garden on one side of the outer courtyard, I saw two tall and thin teenagers sitting there talking quietly.

Seeing Duan Chun approaching, the two stood up in surprise and hurried to his side.

"Oh my God, I haven't seen my brother for a few days, but we are so worried!"

"Is Brother's injury okay?"

The young man with a square face is Qu Heng, the prince of Shouhou.

He kept looking at the back of Duan Chun's head and asked in surprise.

"It's been fine for a long time."

"You two haven't come to see me for several days."

"Where are the other two?"

Duan Chun asked curiously.

"Brother, don't mention it."

"After you were injured that night, my mother-in-law was scared to death when she heard the news."

"I drove my little brother out of the city overnight and sent him to a manor outside the city to hide."

"I'm afraid that Duke Chang will cause trouble for us in his anger."

Wu Xian pursed his lips and said.

"Yes, I was also driven outside the city to escape by my mother-in-law."

"The eldest brother is the only son of the general."

"If something happens to you, no one knows what the general will do?"

Qu Heng nodded quickly.

"Are those two still hiding outside the city?"

"Why are you back today?"

Duan Chun already understood the situation.

It's not that they don't come to find him, it's that they don't dare to return to the Imperial City at all.

If something happened to me that day, given my father's temper.

You will definitely have to find someone to pay with your life!

"We only found out that my eldest brother showed his power and defeated Beixia Leji last night when my mother-in-law attended the palace banquet."

"They picked me up from outside the city that night."

"Those two have been sent further away. They won't be able to come back until tomorrow at least."

Qu Heng smiled.

"Just come back and follow me around today."

"I have been to the Wanhua Building of your Shouhou family before."

"I just want to take you, the young master, to talk to them today."

Duan Chun smiled.

"Wanhua Tower?"

"How come eldest brother wants to do business with my family?"

Qu Heng was stunned.

"By the way, Xiaoxian, what kind of business does your Daihou family have in the Imperial Capital?"

Duan Chun did not answer, and looked at another guy.

"My family's business... I haven't inherited the family property yet."

"How do you know about my father's situation?"

Wu Xian shook his head.

Duan Chun understood that these two guys were the same as he was before.

They were only seventeen years old, and their father was in his prime, so the family's business didn't need the prince to worry about.

It was useless to ask them.

But these two guys might become his partners in the future.

After all, Duan Chun remembered clearly that the four friends had listened to Duan Chun since they were young.

Fighting and making trouble were all a matter of his words.

What's more, their fathers were also generals of the Cavalry Guard.

Now they are still serving under their fathers.

Duan Chun just needed such loyal subordinates, so he sent them here...

"Okay, let's go out for a walk."

"Let's go to Wanhua Tower first, then to Tianzi Pavilion."

"Let you see, I, Duan Chun, want to do big business."

Duan Chun smiled.

"Big business?"

"Brother, you are the prince of the Duke."

"You have been granted marriage by His Majesty as the son-in-law."

"You don't have to worry about money for the rest of your life."

The two asked in confusion.

"You don't know anything."

"Who would complain about having too much money?"

Duan Chun was speechless and walked through the outer courtyard with the two.

Let the housekeeper notify Yue Luo to accompany them.

After a while, another graceful woman wearing a light gauze hat came into the outer courtyard.

Qu Heng and Wu Xian's eyes were wide open...

"I greet the young master."

Yue Luo and the maid bowed and saluted.

"I'll take you to see Tianzi Pavilion today."

"I plan to let you help me keep an eye on the embroidery workshop of Tianzi Pavilion in the future."

"I'll send you to Tianzi Pavilion to familiarize yourself with the environment first..."

Duan Chun smiled and nodded, and walked out of the gate with everyone.

Zhang Wu and Zhao Changlong's guards had already been waiting outside.

The two marquises were even more surprised.

Duan Chun asked the two to sit in the carriage in front, and he took Yue Luo and the maid to sit in another carriage.

The convoy started, and Duan Chun took out a stack of prepared papers from his arms.

Let Yue Luo read it carefully...
