Dugu Ming was a little nervous and said: "I just got the news that the emperor has made a decision to transfer Aye to be the governor of Longyou and the governor of Hexi, and Wang Sili will be appointed the governor of Hedong."

The news came suddenly. In fact, Dugu Lie also knew that if Luoyang was taken, the emperor would definitely take action against Li Ye. He thought of all the possibilities, but he never expected that the emperor would transfer Li Ye to Longyou and Hexi.

Although this is what Dugulie expected, the consequences are very serious. That is to go shopping with 200,000 Tubo troops!

Although Dugu Lie was a little angry with his son-in-law, he was a little worried when his son-in-law really encountered something big, and he paced back and forth in the back hall with his hands behind his back.

Dugu Lie suddenly stopped and asked, "Aren't you going to Xiangyang to see your children?"

Dugu Lie never wanted to get into a quarrel with his son-in-law, but he couldn't save his face, so he asked his brothers and his wife to take advantage of their daughter's birth to go to Xiangyang to see the child and remind Li Ye by the way.

Dugu Ming hesitated and said: "I was planning to leave tomorrow, but I didn't expect that something like this happened today. Should I wait two more days to get more information before leaving?"

"Has the news been confirmed?"

Dugu Ming nodded, "It has been confirmed that Taichang Qing Li Yu will be sent as envoy to Xiangyang to negotiate with Li Ye."

"negotiation?"

Dugu Lie was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that Li Ye would not agree to go to Longyou Hexi so easily, and would definitely bargain with the court. The emperor obviously knew this, so he asked Li Yu to negotiate with Li Ye.

Dugulie thought for a long time, and at this critical moment, he finally decided to stand on the side of his son-in-law and help him obtain the greatest benefit.

Thinking of this, he said to Dugu Ming: "You should leave tomorrow and leave the information to me for the time being, and I will send you a message."

"Brother, do you want to call a few more families to discuss it?"

Dugu Lie nodded, "This transfer is of great importance and affects the interests of all of us. It's time for everyone to sit together. You are leaving tomorrow, so let's get together tonight!"

After more than a month of traveling south of the Yangtze River, Li Ye finally returned to Xiangyang. When he heard that his wife had given birth to another daughter, Li Ye suddenly burst into laughter.

He carefully picked up his little daughter, looked at her left and right, and said with great affection, "She really looks like her sister. This little mouth is made from the same mold."

Dugu Xinyue had not yet finished confinement. She rested her head on her husband's shoulder and said apologetically: "I know my mother-in-law is very disappointed, but she still forced a smile to take care of me. I also want to give my husband a son, but... My husband is disappointed."

Li Ye carefully put his daughter into his wife's arms, hugged her shoulders and comforted her: "My mother has a quick temper. She wants to have a lot of grandchildren all of a sudden and grow up in the blink of an eye. But I am not anxious at all. I should have Everything will come, everything that should come will come. As long as it is my own child, it is my treasure. You can take a good rest for a year or two and recover your body, and then we can have another son."

Dugu Xinyue was moved in her heart and felt a sore nose. As long as her husband understood her, no matter how much suffering she suffered, it would be worth it. She buried her head in her husband's arms and couldn't help but cry softly.

At this time, the curtain suddenly lifted, and Dugu Qiming ran in from the outside. When she saw the couple hugging each other, she felt a little uncomfortable. She quickly turned away and said with a smile: "I'm sorry to bother you, I'll wait for you." Come back later."

Li Ye felt the cold wind when she rushed in, and he felt a little unhappy. His wife was still in confinement, how could she come with such a big thorn?

Dugu Qiming ran to the door, stopped and turned around and asked, "Brother-in-law, where is your concubine A-Zhu? Why haven't you seen her?"

Li Ye said calmly: "She is staying at her parents' house in Hanyang, and it will take some time before she can come back."

Dugu Xinyue was startled and immediately realized that Yang Yuhuan must have gone to the Taoist temple next door and did not want to see Dugu Qiming.

Dugu Qiming curled his lips and said: "My sister is in confinement, but my concubine went back to her parents' house to hide. This is not good!"

Li Ye's face suddenly darkened, but he didn't have an attack just for his wife's sake.

Dugu Xinyue said quickly: "Go quickly! Don't worry so much about other people's housework."

"I'm going to play with Qing Yu. Her flying knife is so good, I want to learn it too!"

Dugu Qiming ran away again like a gust of wind.

Li Ye shook his head, "You are in confinement. It is not good for her to run around like this, and it will easily disturb the child."

Dugu Xinyue nodded, "I asked her to be gentle when I turned around. Hey! She was cute when she was little, but she became a bit mean when she grew up. She started to look a bit like my aunt."

Li Ye immediately thought of his wife's aunt Dugu Hui, who was mean and selfish. She felt that the lapis lazuli stone he gave her was too small and she always felt uncomfortable. His wife had no choice but to give her a larger one, just like several of the Dugu family. All women are like this, and Fang Guan's wife Dugu is also mean and hard-spoken. Only Xinyue grew up in the palace, so she is different from them.

Perhaps this is a common problem among women from wealthy families. Once they are used to being superior and others are talking down to them, their personality will become arrogant and mean.

"Where's Ah Zhu?" Dugu Xinyue pointed in the direction of Taiqing Palace.

Li Ye nodded, "Qiming knows her, but she didn't want to be recognized, so she avoided it."

Dugu Xinyue suddenly thought of something and said with a smile: "My third uncle is coming to Xiangyang, so he should leave now!"

"Dugu Ming?"

Li Ye could never tell which was the third uncle and which was the second uncle, Dugu Ming and Dugu Jun, because Dugu Jun was adopted by his uncle Dugu Yun when he was born. Later, Dugu Yun had his own son, Dugu Ying, and Dugujun returned home again.

But everyone is accustomed to calling Dugu Ming Erlang, and his nickname is still Erlang, so not only Li Ye can't tell the difference, but sometimes Dugu Xinyue also gets it wrong.

"It's him. I wrote a letter to tell my father that I had a second child. My father couldn't get away from me, so I asked my third uncle and my third aunt to come over and have a look."

Li Ye immediately realized that the Dugu family was about to reconcile with him, and he was really happy. What a good thing!

Li Ye then smiled and said: "I'm going to see Dabao'er. Don't leave our Dabao'er in the cold."

Dugu Xinyue smiled and nodded, "Go! She is with her grandmother."

As soon as Li Ye walked out of the courtyard, Dugu Qiming came up to him and said with a smile, "Brother-in-law, are you going to see Dabao'er?"

Li Ye nodded and asked again: "Why don't you go out for a walk? There are many places to play around Xiangyang."

"I don't want to go alone. How about my brother-in-law go out with me?"

Dugu Qiming suddenly felt that this idea was a good one. She took Li Ye's arm and shook it: "Brother-in-law, I'm so bored, why don't you go out with me for a walk!"

Li Ye pulled out his arm, shook his head and said, "I don't have time. In fact, you are not young anymore. Hurry up and find a husband you like and let him accompany you to play."

Dugu Qiming curled his lips and said, "We have gone on a few blind dates, but I don't like them. They are either ninth-grade officials or imperial students. I just want to find someone like my brother-in-law, who is young and in a high position, even if he is Even if I can’t be my first wife, I am willing.”

Li Ye said lightly: "It's best not to look for people like me, you will definitely regret it!"

"Why?"

"Don't you know that the emperor is deliberately planning to kill me? Your sister didn't tell you that she has been assassinated several times and escaped with her life. The scenery is only on the surface, but there are cliffs behind it. You'd better choose a child of a big family. , with a big family as your backing, you can enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth just like your grandmother did."

Dugu Qiming's expression changed, "Has my sister been assassinated?"

Li Ye nodded, "Thirty assassins shot through her carriage with poisonous crossbows. Fortunately, she was not on the carriage at the time. The whereabouts of these assassins are still unknown. They were most likely sent by the emperor, so your sister won't let you go out to play. , there is a reason.”

After speaking, Li Ye quickened his pace and went to his mother's yard.

Dugu Qiming stood still with a look of shock on her face. She had taken a fancy to Li Ye's young and high position, but if the emperor wanted to kill him and his life was at risk, that would be another matter.

no! She was going to ask her sister if the story of the thirty assassins was true.

Dugu Qiming turned around and ran towards his sister's yard.
