Chapter 234
After leaving Cheng's mansion, it was already dusk.

After a day of tossing around, there was nothing important to do in the workshop, so Li Xian simply returned to Li's residence.

The bright moon hangs high, revealing its brilliance, and it is a bit cold.

Next to the plaque with the word "Li Mansion" written in official script and seal script on the board, paper lanterns swayed with the night wind, and the shadow of warm yellow lanterns swayed on the ground.

After not entering the house for a long time, standing outside the courtyard again, Li Xianxin felt warm.

At that time, it seemed as if the door of the mansion with red lacquer and copper riveting had been pierced, and familiar pictures of scenes from the past flooded into my heart.

Li Jing held a stick in his hand, his chest heaved, and he scolded him in a stern and forceful voice for being ignorant and idle.Hong Fu Nu always stood aside, stretched her arms to protect herself behind her, and said that people have their own ambitions, and that plainness is also the words of life.

Feeling warm in his heart, Li Xian moved lightly and knocked on the door lightly.

Fu Ding's familiar voice came out the next moment.

"Who?"

The footsteps in the courtyard were gradually approaching, and after a while, the door creaked and opened a small crack.Seeing the visitor from the eyes in the door, he opened the door with a bang, and said happily.

"My son, my son is back."

As soon as the words fell, shouts suddenly sounded in the front yard of the Li Mansion.

"Master and Madam, Mr. Li is back!"

With a whoosh, there was a rush of footsteps rushing across the courtyard.

The maid hurriedly said hello, turned around and went to boil water to make tea, the cook bowed his waist and nodded to say hello, wiped his hands on his waist, and went to make some hot meals.

Li Xian strolled down the corridor to the north room in the backyard. In the corridor, he ran into Li Jing and Hong Funu who hurried over from the north room in the backyard, and greeted them first.

"Father and mother."

The red girl smiled and came over to pinch Li Xian's arm, stroked the hair on her temples with her palm, looked at it for a while, and pulled Li Xian to walk towards the back room.

"Mother told your father earlier that the Ministry of Industry is not busy now, and she didn't talk about going back to the house to have a look. My mother still remembers it in her heart."

Counting these days, it is true that he seldom went back to the mansion. The Li manor smiled awkwardly and did not answer.

Li Jing walked aside, seeing that Li Xian didn't answer, he quietly added a sentence.

"Xian'er has been running around in two places these days, which is already a lot of work."

"If you have something to do, just do your own work. Everything in the mansion is fine. Don't worry about doing your own affairs well."

This was the first time Li Xian heard that his father excused himself, and he was somewhat moved.

Hong Fu Nu no longer was obsessed with this question, instead she took Li Xian's arm and said with a smile.

"Xian'er, how are you and Princess Changle these days?"

"But there are still contacts?"

Ever since Princess Changle visited the mansion last time, this has become a hurdle in the hearts of Li Jing and Hong Funu.

Afraid of asking questions, and afraid that Li Xian didn't know the identity of Princess Changle would spoil the matter, so he kept covering it up for a long time.

"Ok?"

"Father and mother also know?"

Li Xian turned his head around to look at Li Jinghong Fu Nu, with a look of surprise on his face.

Originally thought that it was Princess Changle who lived in the deep palace for a long time and rarely showed up, but unexpectedly her parents also knew about it.

Thinking of this, Li Xian's heart tightened for a while.

I'm afraid that in this world, I, the client, will be the last one to wake up.

After crossing the threshold, Hong Fu Nu let go of Li Xian's arm, and the three of them sat down at the desk. Hong Fu Nu cast a glance at Li Jing, who was beside her, and said with a smile.

"Princess Changle is the jewel in the palm of His Majesty, and your father is from Chaozhong, how could you not know?"

"Although in recent years, Princess Changle has been ill, but the appearance of her eyebrows can't be checked much."

A servant came in from outside, served hot tea and two cups of pastries before leaving.

Although Li Jing and Hong Fu Nu had finished their dinner, they accompanied Li Xian to pick up pastries and chatted while eating.

"Xian'er, don't think that Auntie is talkative."

"Princess Changle belongs to the royal family, you should give way to your normal life, don't be so lazy as usual."

"Also, as a man, you naturally have to take the initiative. Women are reserved and shy, so don't be negligent, as it will detract from their hearts."

After pulling away the chatterbox, Hong Funu seemed to be out of control, and began to talk in detail.

"The royal family has countless rare treasures. In addition, courtiers offer tribute and foreigners pay tribute. Our Li family doesn't have much family property, but if you need any money, you can ask for it. At least you can't lose our Li family." The front of the house."

Speaking of this, Li Xian interrupted, finished chewing the stuffed pastry, and reported to Su Nian.

"Father, mother, don't worry about this matter."

"On Suzaku Long Street, I, Li Xian, belong to the tea shop opened by Cheng's family. I can't say how much I earn from high-priced tea. It is the monthly revenue of the rest of the government."

"The wine will be on the market soon, and it will be a considerable income. From next month, the government will send a few smart butlers to hand over the money and silk inventory, and it will save me going out to check the accounts all month."

Li Jing, who had been silent all the time when it came to the wine brewing, frowned slightly, took a sip of tea, and took the words.

"Xian'er, this time Duke Lu strayed into the martial arts venue and shook the Tubo envoy with his fist. This is not a trivial matter."

"As His Majesty, you can get away with it not just because you protect him, do you understand?"

The pastry was too sweet and greasy, and Li Xian felt his mouth refreshed after pouring tea, so he nodded repeatedly.

"Father, the child is also about to talk about this matter."

"Tubo came here prepared. Being disturbed by the drunk Uncle Cheng this time, he must be dissatisfied in his heart, and most likely he will sue in front of His Majesty."

"At that time, I hope that father can say something nicely in the hall, at least to save the Cheng family's official position in the Western Expedition."

Li Jing took a long breath of relief and leaned back in the chair.

For so many years, I was afraid of being the master of high achievements, and I rarely acted out of line, and even these old friends from the past rarely moved around.

After pondering for a moment, Li Jing nodded slowly.

"Although Lu Guogong broke in unintentionally, he won back the face for Datang."

"What's more, when it comes to this matter, it is also related to Jiuniang. My Li family can't sit idly by."

"Don't worry, even if His Majesty is dismissed, the old man will privately advise His Majesty to make up for his mistakes and leave two positions."

Li Xian knew Li Jing's temperament best, he was a good old man, and he didn't want to be punished because of his family's involvement.

Even if he said that, he would definitely be able to fulfill his promise.

The cook came in with a few dishes, wiped the oil stains on his hands, and said with a smile.

"Mr. Li, don't be disgusted. Your skills are limited, so you can make do with it."

Looking at the kind middle-aged cook, Li Xian laughed, took the bamboo chopsticks from the red maid, and took a handful.

"The craftsmanship is different, mainly because it has the taste of home."

The words warmed the house instantly, and even Li Jing's serious face smiled.

Overwhelmed by Li Xian's persuasion, Hong Fu Nu took out the long-preserved wine from the wine cellar and put it on the desk.

"Now you have a heavy responsibility, so you finally come back and have a drink with your father."

The clear fermented rice draws out an arc, and the clear wine mixed with melons and fruits pours down the wine bowl and pushes it in front of the father and son.

Holding a candle in their hands again, in the warm light and shadow, the two of them grabbed cups and drank each other.

Talk about some interesting stories and anecdotes about the expedition, talk about foreign customs, and also talk about the training of special soldiers in the army.

Interspersed with some Hongfu girl's words from time to time, the family of three enjoyed themselves happily.
