Chapter 693 The Shameless Li Tai (Third Watch)
Li Tai and Changsun Wuji said a few more words, and then entered Youzhou City together, heading towards King Yan.Naturally, someone arranged for the accompanying entourage to rest at the station.

After arriving at Yin'an Hall, Li Tai ordered someone to set up a seat for Changsun Wuji on his left.Then he said to Changsun Wuji: "Master Uncle, you have worked hard on this journey."

"I didn't feel any hard work on the train you made. Let's get down to business, and it's not too late to talk about family affairs." Changsun Wuji said to Li Tai.

Afterwards, Changsun Wuji got up and took out an imperial decree from the sleeve of his robe.Then he said to Li Tai: "Yan Wang Li Tai accepts the order."

Li Tai hurriedly led all the civil and military officials, knelt down in front of Changsun Wuji, and said to Changsun Wuji: "My son, King Yan, Li Tai accepts the order."

Then Changsun Wuji opened his mouth and read out: "My family, Jin Wang Li Zhi has reached the age of marriage. I heard that Wu Ze, the daughter of the late Ying Guogong's warrior Xun, is a virtuous and virtuous woman. Now I have made a decree to marry Jin Wang Li Tai as my concubine..."

After Changsun Wuji finished reading, another attendant brought up the betrothal gift from Li Shimin, 2000 taels of gold and 5000 taels of silver.There are also some rare treasures, which were also sent to the Yin'an Hall.

The eunuch responsible for delivering the betrothal gift was Li Shimin's personal eunuch. After delivering the betrothal gift to Yin'an Hall, he said, "His Royal Highness, please count the betrothal gift, so that this old slave can go back to report to the emperor."

"Don't worry about my father-in-law's work, I don't need to count. Come and feed my father-in-law to sit." Li Tai smiled and said to Li Shimin's personal eunuch, and then ordered someone to bring a chair.

Li Tai took over the decree from Changsun Wuji again.Then he said to his eldest grandson Wugou: "My lord uncle, my father is too stingy. To marry his son a wife, he took out such a small dowry."

I knew that Li Tai was a money fan, but I never expected that Li Tai would be so straightforward.In front of his subordinates, he directly said this.

"I said, Your Highness King Yan, you can't fall into Qian's eyes. Don't tell me you are still short of money?" Changsun Wuji asked Li Tai helplessly.

"Uncle, what you said is wrong. There is no reason in this world to marry someone else's daughter for nothing. I think the father is stingy." Li Tai said after curling his lips.

"Brother Huang, the emperor's imperial edict has been issued, and there are only so many dowries. Even if Brother Huang is here, no matter how much you complain, it will be useless." Chang Sun Chong said to Li Tai.

"That's the truth, but this king has to pay a very expensive dowry. How about I keep the 2000 taels of gold and let my uncle take back the rest as a dowry?" Li Tai smiled at his eldest grandson. Ji said.

"This father and son really leave me speechless. One is sitting on the world, and the other is wealthy. Why are they so fussy?" Changsun Wuji said with a sigh in his heart.

"Brother Huang, if Brother Huang really does this, I'm afraid you will be laughed at by your sister-in-law and brother Huang, and he will be embarrassed by that time." Chang Sun Chong said to Li Tai with a smile.

"Then according to your opinion, should this king double the betrothal gift given by the emperor and send it back as a dowry?" Li Tai asked Chang Sun Chong.

"It depends on what you think, Brother Huang. If it were me, it would be possible to get three or five times as much. After all, it is worthwhile to exchange the things you don't lack for a good reputation." Changsun Chong replied Li Tai said.

"This king remembers your words. One day, when the three imperial sisters of Jinyang Chengyang and Xincheng get married. This king will definitely come to your house for them and ask you for their dowry. Arrive Don't tell me when the time comes, you won't be able to get it out." Li Tai looked at Changsun Chong and said with a smile.

Hearing Li Tai's words, Changsun Chong couldn't help crying and said: "Father, you see that I guessed right, I knew that if I didn't manage it, I would spend a lot of money. Now it's all right, it's a one-off deal Go out three copies."

"Changsun Chong, it's only three points now. If the Empress Empress gives birth to another sister-in-law for you, it will be four points. At that time, you can only sell your concubine's mansion, otherwise you will never get it." So much dowry." Cheng Tieniu said with a smile.

Cheng Tieniu's words made everyone burst into laughter, but Chang Sun Chong's face showed a bitter look.Don't regret it too much in my heart, I really hope that I rejected the emperor at that time, and didn't come to Youzhou to take this muddy water.

"Brother Huang, I am just a son-in-law. Princess Changle is in charge of everything in the mansion. When the time comes, Brother Huang will ask Princess Changle directly. I believe Princess Changle will not be stingy." Changsun Chong said to Li Tai.

"You've learned a lot, kid. You actually used this king's imperial sister to block arrows. It seems that if this king doesn't come up with a decent dowry today, he won't be able to satisfy my uncle and my brother-in-law." Li Tai shook his head. Said.

Hearing Li Tai's words, Chang Sun Chong couldn't help laughing secretly.It seems that my father's method really worked, he carried Princess Changle out, and everything was resolved.

"Then I wonder how much dowry His Highness King Yan is going to give?" Changsun Wuji asked Li Tai with a smile.

"I don't know what uncle thinks, how much dowry should I give my nephew?" Li Tai asked Changsun Wuji with a smile.

"When I came here, the emperor once said that with the financial resources of His Royal Highness King Yan, if you don't take out ten thousand taels of gold and ten thousand taels of silver as the dowry of his aunt, I'm afraid the world will laugh at you." Changsun Wuji smiled at Li Tai Said.

Hearing Changsun Wuji's words, Li Tai almost sat down on the ground.This is not a small amount. If I really took out so much, it would definitely be enough to feel sorry for me for several years.

"My lord uncle, Royal Father is too dishonest. Otherwise, you go back and tell Royal Father that my aunt is married. How about letting this marriage go?" Li Tai shamelessly said to eldest grandson Wuji.

Li Tai's words not only surprised Changsun Wuji.Even the civil servants and military generals present couldn't help but turn green.They never imagined that Li Tai would say so brazenly.

"No wonder Cheng Yaojin didn't come. It turns out that this errand is really difficult to handle. I thought I could still ask for some wedding money from His Highness King Yan, but it seems that I can only wait to go back and let the emperor punish me."

"However, you can rest assured, Your Highness King Yan. After I go back, I will tell the emperor exactly what His Royal Highness Yan said." Changsun Wuji said to Li Tai with a sighing expression.

"Why do I, Li Tai, have such a bunch of relatives? It's fine for me to cheat my son, but this uncle is also cheating on my nephew. My life is really hard." Li Tai said with a sad expression on his face.

"Your Highness King Yan, no matter how you say it, you are the king of a country. You may lose the majesty of a king by being such a philistine in front of your own subjects." Changsun Wuji said to Li Tai.

"The money is gone, what's the use of being dignified. If anyone likes to ask for this thing, then the king is willing to give it to him, as long as he is willing to pay the dowry for the king." Li Tai looked indifferent expression said.
