Unparalleled Concubine

Vol 2 Chapter 952: Hou Ye is not dead yet?

Chapter 952 Marquis is not giving up?

After left the capital, Li Xin made a special trip to Ningling, where, under the leadership of the Ye family's children, went to the grave to burn some paper for the old man and kowtowed a few times.

For more than ten years, Li Xin has seen too many people, including two generations of emperors, various royal family members, and countless court officials and military generals, but he admires them sincerely. There is only old man Ye.

The only controversial thing Ye Sheng has done over the years is that he handed over military power and returned to Beijing to retire. Of course, this was the hardest thing he did. After all, General Ye was only in his early 40s at that time, and he was a man. When career ambition is the heaviest, being able to resolutely disarm at that juncture is something that most people cannot do.

In addition, Ye Sheng's life is a perfect life for a military general. He joined the army as a young man, and climbed all the way with military merit.

The most important thing is, the end of life.

None of these things were easy, but Ye Sheng managed to do them all.

After Ningling went to the grave, Li Xin didn't stay for too long. He only stayed in the ancestral house of Ningling's Ye family for a day before leaving. After walking slowly along the way for an entire spring, the group finally set foot on the On the land of Yongzhou Mansion, after reaching the boundary of Yongzhou, Li Xin called Xie Dai and said, "Already at the boundary of his hometown, Xie Lang will be sent here and can go back."

Xie Dai hesitated for a moment, then said, "Teacher, the lower official must go to see the eldest princess."

If you think about it, the Xie family is still a relative of the Li Xin family, and the most distinguished person in the Li Xin family is naturally the eldest princess of Qinghe.

Li Xin said with a smile: "You go in with me, with a big fanfare, and you will inevitably disturb the local officials along the way, there is no need."

Xie Dai looked back at the dozen or so carriages behind him, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has given so many maids and servants to the Grand Master, and they all follow along, and they are not inferior to the officials."

Li Xin glanced at Xie Dai, then smiled dumbly: "Forget it, follow along if you like, most of us will disturb the local officials, I'm too lazy to deal with them, you send a team of Yulin guards out and tell the officials, Let them go where they should go."

Xie Dai bowed his head respectfully: "I'm going to do it now."

Entering the boundary of Yongzhou from the east, it is directly Qiyang County, and a little further west is Yongzhou City. Therefore, Li Xin and others only spent a day to enter the Qiyang County Government Office. Go slowly into the city.

Li Xin is a person who doesn't like publicity very much, but the 200 Yulin guards, plus the more than 100 servants bestowed by the emperor, can't do it without publicity. Most of the people in Qiyang County are standing on the side of the road, watching This is a big man who has appeared every few hundred years in Qiyang County.

Originally, people from the Qiyang County Government Office would come to greet Li Xin, but Li Xin greeted him in advance. These people did not dare to touch the bad head of the imperial grandfather, so they could only hide and secretly watch Li Xin enter the city.

With so many folks around, Li Xin was not so good at all and didn't say anything at all. He asked Xie Dai and other Yu Linwei to distribute some money along the way, which was a disguised stimulus to the hometown's economy.

In this way, they entered Qiyang County at noon, and did not arrive at the entrance of Li's house at the foot of Qishan until evening. Li Xin jumped out of the carriage, looked back at Xie Dai, and said with a smile: "Xie Lang will be there. How many days are you staying here before you leave?"

"Don't dare to live."

Xie Dai hurriedly lowered his head and said with a wry smile: "Xiaguan kowtow to the eldest princess and leave."

Lord Jingan patted his shoulder understandingly, and said with a smile, "Xie Lang will be a smart man."

While the two were talking, the middle door of Li's house opened wide, and the nine princesses brought Li Xin's eldest daughter Li Shu, the youngest son Li Ping, Zhong Xiaoxiao, Hui Niang and other family members out to greet Li Xin. .

Li Xin walked up with a smile, first hugged Princess Jiu, then bent down and hugged his son and daughter in his arms.

At this time, his eldest daughter, Ahan, was seven years old, and it was quite heavy to hold in his arms. Lord Jingan put his son on the ground, stretched out his hand and pinched the eldest daughter's nose, and said with a smile, "Ahan eats fat. already."

Little Ahan inherited her mother's foodie attributes and liked to find delicious food everywhere since she was a child, but she obviously did not inherit her mother's physique that she could not eat fat. She is only seven years old now and looks a little chubby.

Little Ahan stretched out her arms around her father's neck and snorted softly.

"Daddy got it wrong, I didn't gain weight, I just grew taller."

Li Houye laughed and walked into the door of Li's house with her in his arms, talking to his family as he walked.

Xie Dai bravely stepped forward, kowtowed to the ninth princess, and left with a group of Yulin guards.

The nine princesses turned their eyebrows and looked at the more than 100 servants left by Xie Dai, most of whom were maids.

Li Xin felt his wife's gaze, and hurriedly said with a smile: "That eldest nephew of yours was specially sent to take care of you, and it has nothing to do with me."

The eldest princess eased her brows and asked softly, "Yan'er, is he doing well as an emperor?"

The Marquis of Jing An smiled meaningfully.

"Very good."

While walking, Li Xin talked to his children and Zhong Xiaoxiao. He hadn't seen each other for a long time, and the little one grew a little longer. He looked like a big girl. Li Xin made fun of Zhao Fang. After saying a few words to her, the little girl immediately blushed and ran away.

After walking into the main hall, the nine princesses remembered something and said, "By the way, Mr. You An arrived yesterday, saying that he heard that your husband was coming back, so he specially waited here."

Li Xin was a little surprised.

"Zhao Jia is in Qiyang?"

Nine Princesses nodded: "It's in the backyard, he said it was inconvenient for him to show up, so he didn't go to greet your husband."

Li Xin then put Little Ahan down from his arms and said, "Ahan, be good, go to Aunt Zhong to play, and Dad to see you Uncle Zhao."

A Han was brought up by Li Xin when he was a child, and was very close to his father. Hearing this, he pouted and ran away unhappily.

There was no one around at this time, Li Xin turned around and hugged the eldest princess, and then walked towards his backyard.

In the garden in the backyard, Zhao Jia, dressed in white, has been waiting for a long time.

Li Xin walked up and said with a smile: "Brother You An is not busy in Jincheng, why did you come to Qiyang County?"

Zhao Jia got up and greeted him, hehe said with a smile: "I heard that Lord Hou is coming back, so my subordinates took the liberty to greet Lord Hou in Qiyang."

Zhao Jia blinked.

"Mu Ying was clamoring to come, but it took a lot of effort for his subordinates to persuade him to stop."

The scholar dressed in white glanced at Li Xin with a half-smile.

"I heard that Lord Hou is in the capital, and it's a little unpleasant?"

The Marquis of Jing'an touched his nose and said a little embarrassedly: "Brother You'an is in the southwest, and the news is very well-informed."

"It's been a few months, how can you not know?"

Zhao Jia smiled.

"The previous emperor sealed a king of Shu in the south, and now he has sealed a king of Yan in the north, but they are in the same line."

He looked at Li Xin, hehe smiled: "Is it very unhappy to see that Yuwen's department has been named King Yan?"

Li Xin let out a slow breath.

"Brother You'an, if you have anything to say, just say it straight, don't be mean."

The smile on Zhao Jia's face subsided, and he bent over to Li Xin deeply.
