Since returning to Kyoto, Li Yi has been living in the Li family and has not returned to Prince Jing's Mansion. 【△网WwW.】

Today, the main entrance to Prince Jing's Mansion was opened for the first time in several years.

In front of the mansion gate, there was an endless stream of cars, horses and official sedans. Most people put down their gifts and left in a hurry without even stepping through the gate.

In the past few years, Prince Jing's Mansion has only left a few servants to clean the courtyard. This time, the officials and dignitaries from the capital gathered together, and the servants in the Mansion were even a little overwhelmed.

Shouning simply transferred some maids and servants from his princess mansion just to help them carry the gifts.

Of course, not everyone puts down their gifts and passes through the house without entering.

"Where's Zui Mo, where's Xiao Mu?" This was the first thing Zeng Shichun said after seeing Li Yi.

Li Yi shook his head and said, "They are in Ruyi City and did not come back this time."

Li Yi saw the expectation and excitement on Zeng Shichun's face disappear in an instant, glanced at Li Yi, and said lightly: "You are back."

The little Minister of the Ministry of Finance actually dared to talk to him like this. After not seeing him for several years, Mr. Zeng became a little confused.

However, for the sake of Zui Mo and Xiao Mu, Li Yi would not argue with him about his rudeness for the time being.

Liu Dayou walked over quickly, with excitement on his face, and said: "Your Highness, you are back..."

Look at Master Ren Liu's attitude. He is countless times better than his predecessor.

"I've been out in Beijing to inspect unjust cases in various places for two months. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back in a short time." Liu Dayou looked at Li Yi and said with some regret: "He must be very happy to know that His Highness is back in Beijing."

Hearing Liu Yishou's name, Zeng Shichun looked at him and couldn't help but said: "You Anxi County is really full of talents. [△网WwW.]"

What Lao Zeng said is correct. Liu Dayou was originally the magistrate of Anxi County. In less than ten years, he climbed to the position of Jing Zhaoyin. This was the ultimate magistrate.

As for Liu Yishou, he rose from a small policeman to the current Minister of the Ministry of Justice, which is equivalent to his official position of Zeng Shichun, and can be called a legend in the officialdom.

Dong Wenyun, the former prefect of Qing'an, is now the right prime minister.

The former Anxi county lieutenant has now become the king.

There are so many big bosses coming out of a small county, and no one would believe them.

The three of them sat in the courtyard. Li Yi ordered the kitchen to cook a few side dishes and brought a pot of wine.

Liu Da couldn't let him go because of his status. Zeng Shichun ignored him because he hadn't seen Zui Mo.

After a few glasses of wine, they all started chatting.

"Your Highness..." Liu Dayou took a bite of food and said: "When I was in Qing'an Mansion, I knew that Your Highness is not a thing in the pond. The small Anxi County cannot trap you..."

"The luckiest thing in my life is to be the magistrate of Anxi County." He chuckled, "I thought so too. Jing Zhaoyin and the Minister of Justice have been working together for a long time, but I miss the days when I was in Anxi County. …”

Liu Dayou's drinking capacity was not high. Even if he drank something other than hard liquor, he would soon get drunk, lying on the table and mumbling to himself.

Zeng Shichun drank slowly. After Liu Dayou fell drunk, he took another sip of wine and said slowly: "My eldest brother was framed back then. In order to save the Zeng family, he took all the blame. The family was ruined. At that time, I My rank is too low, so I can only watch helplessly..."

"Later, I gradually took the position of Minister of Tobe, and repeated to him what that man did to my eldest brother. Later, I let him die on the road to exile..."

"The revenge was avenged, but the Zeng family is no longer the Zeng family. Later, when Zui Mo came to Kyoto, she was unwilling to recognize me as her second uncle. She loved me so much when she was a child..." Zeng Shichun took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "I still have to thank you for this, His Highness Prince Jing..."

He picked up the flask and drank deeply, then stood up, patted his shoulder and said, "Don't let Zui Mo suffer any injustice--I beg you."

Zeng Shichun left smelling of alcohol, but Li Yi knew that he was not drunk.

In this world, there are always some people with special circumstances.

It is normal for the princess to control and the queen to control these things.

There are sisters who control sisters, daughters who control nieces, and some of these people have dirty thoughts, while others do not contain a trace of impurity. They are really protective and loving from the bottom of their hearts.

Chang De walked out of the backyard, his breath a little disordered.

This is unusual for a master like him.

Unless another grandmaster forced him to have a disordered breath.

Mingzhu looked calm and composed, Chang De's face bloomed with a chrysanthemum-like smile, and he bowed and said: "I am no longer your highness's opponent..."

Li Yi felt a little sad.

Even the Pearl has broken through. When will his opportunity to become a master come?

Then I thought, even if he breaks through, he can't beat Lao Chang, he can't beat Mr. Xu, and he can't beat Mingzhu and Ruyi. What's the point of such a breakthrough?

Li Duan took Xiaorui's hand and ran over from the backyard. The two had been separated for several years, but they were inseparable these days.

When he ran past Lao Chang, he stopped and bowed: "Master."

Xiaorui also looked at Mingzhu: "Auntie!"

She didn't know Changde, so she didn't know how to call him, so she followed Li Duan and called him master.

Li Duan looked at Mingzhu, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Auntie."

Before Li Yi had time to correct what he said, he and Xiaorui ran outside.

"Zhao has sent an envoy." Mingzhu sat beside him and said, "In the past few months, Zhao Yi has led the army in person and has been unstoppable, breaking through Zhao's cities one after another. Now half of Zhao's land has fallen into the hands of Qi."

Li Yi thought for a while and asked, "Zhao wants to borrow troops?"

Mingzhu nodded and said, "The court officials mean that although we have old grudges with Zhao, if Qi conquers Zhao, it will pose a greater threat to us. In order to prevent Qi from becoming stronger, we should send troops."

Li Yi shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's too late."

Sending troops is not something that can be done just by saying it. Not only do we need to mobilize the army, but we also need to prepare food and grass, distribute military pay, and the long journey. By the time the border guards receive these orders, I'm afraid it will be too late.

This time, Zhao Yi was determined to go crazy. He would kill gods and Buddhas. His expansion would eventually become a major concern for Wu and Jing. Both countries would not sit idly by. It was because he knew this that he sent troops so quickly to conquer Zhao in the shortest possible time.

When Zhao was completely occupied by Qi, it would not be so easy to move them.

Mingzhu nodded and said, "Even if it is too late, we must prepare early. Once Qi becomes powerful, it will eventually point the spearhead at us..."

Li Yi shook his head and said, "Zhao Yi is a smart man. Without the punishment of heaven and cannons, he would not send troops to Jing or Wu..."

The emergence of gunpowder and cannons made Jing and Wu like a cheat. They quickly moved to the forefront of the world in military terms. Combined with the appropriate tactics, they were almost invincible.

Zhao Yi knew this very well. He dared not do this without punishment from heaven...

The two discussed this matter in the courtyard. Outside the courtyard, Li Duan and Xiao Rui were sitting on the swing. Suddenly, Li Duan turned his head to look at her and asked, "Xiao Rui, will you marry me in the future?"

"Of course!" The little girl looked back at him and said as a matter of course, "We have agreed. Do you want to regret it?"

"No, no..." Li Duan shook his head hurriedly, and said, "But if you marry me in the future, you can no longer call the aunt just now "Aunt"..."

"Why?" The little girl blinked her eyes, looked at him curiously, and asked, "What else can you call her if not Aunt?"

"Call her mother..."

Li Duan thought for a while and said, "And the little aunt who gave you the candy man just now can't be called Little Aunt. You have to call her Little Mother like me..."

...

The affairs of Zhao State were worried by countless important officials in the court. In the past few days before the New Year, Li Yi went out to visit several veterans and sent out the gifts he received a few days ago.

Then it was the New Year.

On the third day of the first lunar month in the fifth year of Jingping, a major event occurred in Kyoto.

Even for the entire Jing Kingdom, this was a major event.

The queen gave birth to a baby boy on this day, and both mother and child were safe. Mobile users please visit m.Read for a better reading experience.
