In the hall, Lu Zhaoci led Li Waner and Cui Yingying to kneel in front of Lu Changqing, holding tea in both hands. Lu Changqing was smiling, looking at his eldest son, and nodded in relief. Giving birth to a child like this is enough to comfort him throughout his life.
.
"Get up, get up, haha!" Lu Changqing nodded repeatedly and gave the three of them a hand.
Lu Zhaoci quickly stood up and helped the two girls up. Lu Changqing, who was above him, was even more happy. After marrying these two women, his eldest son would surely be able to flourish in the future, and his love for his deceased wife would not be in vain.
One game.
"Yingying, you are still in the front hall, go and see him!" Lu Changqing glanced at Cui Yingying and nodded thoughtfully.
"Thank you, Aweng!" Cui Yingying did not dare to neglect and bowed to Lu Changqing. Under the leadership of the two maids, she headed towards the front hall. Li Waner was also a smart character. When she saw Lu Changqing's arrangement, she knew that the father and son must have something to say.
He wanted to say something, so he quickly bowed down and said goodbye. Only Lu Changqing and his son were left in the entire back hall.
"Now that you have a family, Da Lang, you must be careful in everything, even if you are the prime minister's son-in-law." Lu Changqing sighed, looking at Lu Zhaoci with eyes full of love, and said:
"Father, I will go back to Huoyi today. From now on, everything about the Lu family in the court will be decided by you."
Lu Zhaoci was stunned when he heard this. Li Yuan was about to proclaim himself emperor, and Lu Changqing happened to be in Daxing City. Why did he leave so quickly? At least he had to wait until Li Yuan ascended the throne before leaving! Suddenly his face changed slightly, and he looked at Lu Changqing,
But Lu Changqing nodded slightly.
"The Cui family hasn't made up their mind yet. They just want to help the Prime Minister stabilize the situation in Hebei at the critical moment. Although the Prime Minister is unhappy, there is nothing he can do. After all, the army is still in Guanzhong, which is far away from Hebei."
Sure enough, these three people must have met in private, otherwise how could they know such details? Lu Changqing didn't even attend the ceremony of Li Yuan's enthronement and returned to Huoyi.
"Da Lang, let me ask you, do you really have any suggestions for what His Highness asked yesterday?" Lu Changqing suddenly asked with a solemn expression.
Lu Zhaoci shook his head and said: "My child didn't say anything, it was just a clue thrown out by His Highness the King of Tang yesterday. He is about to rule the world. The position of the prince is not something we can discuss. The decision-making power still rests with him.
In hand."
Lu Changqing nodded and sighed: "You are right. Now the eldest son Jiancheng is evenly matched with the second son Li Shimin. One is loyal and benevolent, the other has great ambitions, one is good at handling government affairs, and the other has outstanding military achievements. From the time he started the army in Taiyuan to now,
His shadow can be seen everywhere. His prestige in the government and the public is extremely high. There are many people who want to elect him to be the prince!"
"Huh, whoever is the prince cannot be allowed to be the prince." Lu Zhaoci said with a cold expression: "His general Hou Junji whipped my father. Did my father forget? But?
The child has not forgotten it. As long as Hou Junji dies, this hatred will never be extinguished."
"What you said is correct, but according to the tone of the Prime Minister the day before yesterday, the possibility of establishing Li Shimin is still very high, not to mention the support of many people in the government and the public. If he is to be established as the prince,
Even though we have a grudge against him, we still have to be careful."
"Father, don't worry for the moment. Pei Ji, Wang Gui and others have already assisted Li Jiancheng. The only reason why they, the Guanlong family, drove their children to Guanzhong was because they were afraid that we would expand our strength under Li Jiancheng's camp. How could these people let Li Shimin
If they become the prince, won't all their hard work be in vain? Although these people have no abilities, they still have the ability to do bad things. The Prime Minister obeys Pei Ji's words! As long as they are around, Li Shimin will
It is impossible to become a prince." Lu Zhaoci showed a relaxed smile on his face.
"Da Lang's words make sense. In this case, I can go back to Huoyi with peace of mind." Lu Changqing nodded. These Guanzhong sons are quite exclusive. Even if Lu Zhaoci is now married to Li Yuan's daughter, he is considered to be half of the Guanzhong family.
In the eyes of people like Pei Ji, I'm afraid he still doesn't like it.
"Alang, Mr. Pei Ji is coming to visit. This is a greeting card sent by his butler." Suddenly, Lu Qingyun said with surprise on the dripping eaves outside the hall. In his hands, he was holding a shining golden object.
.Look carefully, it’s the greeting card.
"Pei Ji?" Lu Zhaoci stood up in surprise. He and Pei Ji had nothing to do with each other, and they didn't like each other. Even yesterday, they came with Li Yuan, watched the ceremony, and then left.
.What's more, this guy likes to rely on his elders. Relying on Li Yuan's favor, no one in Daxing City can be taken seriously by him. Even Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin and others are also called "Dalang" and "Erlang" by him. According to his temper, if he sees himself
If so, you would have to send someone to deliver the message, but this time someone sent a greeting card. Judging from the appearance, it was made of gold. It was already quite grand.
Lu Zhaoci reached out and took it, and sure enough, the name of Pei Ji on it was already full of official names. Who else could he be if he wasn't Pei Ji? Although Lu Changqing had never met Pei Ji, he also knew that he was Li Yuan's most favored minister and that he was Li Yuan's
The two sons are not as good as him. There must be something important to come to the door in person this time.
"What a grand display, Father, please see that this post is made of gold. This Pei clan is really rich!" Lu Zhaoci said, raising the greeting post in his hand with disdain.
"At this critical juncture, I'm afraid this person is here because of the prince's affairs. It seems that the Prime Minister's words yesterday have taken effect. You have to deal with it carefully." Lu Changqing frowned.
"The Guanzhong family is so powerful. With their support of Li Jiancheng, could the crown prince have escaped?" Lu Zhaoci said disdainfully: "Perhaps they are not here to explore the crown prince's affairs at all, but to demonstrate. Why?
, I, the Lu family, are not as rich as you are?" Lu Zhaoci glanced at the greeting cards on the desk with dissatisfaction, and the dazzling gold was indeed dazzling.
"This person has a high position and is older than you. Although you don't like him, you still have to go out to greet him in person." Lu Changqing frowned and said: "It is better to offend a gentleman than a villain. This Pei Ji was able to steal the Jin Dynasty back then.
If the treasures in the Yang Palace are used for gambling, it is obvious that he is a villain, so it is better for you to be careful about this person."
"Father is absolutely right." Lu Zhaoci nodded, waved his hand and said, "In that case, I will go and meet Pei Ji to see what tricks he is up to." After saying that, he raised his hand to Lu Changqing.
Under the leadership of Lu Qingyun, they headed towards Yimen.
