Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Li Yuan waved his hand and signaled, "It won't take long for this position to be vacant. You just need to take the initiative to fight for it."

Seeing that he spoke so convincingly, Guo Ye couldn't help asking suspiciously: "Why?"

Li Yuan smiled mysteriously: "You don't need to know too much about this, just wait patiently, and opportunities will appear!"

Speaking of this, Li Yuan asked again: "Guo Qing, I've finished talking about what I need to say. I don't know what you think about it? After the matter is completed, you will be the minister of the dragon. Let alone a mere Duke of Pingyang, So what if the widow makes you a duke of the state? If you are at the top of the court for a while, you, Guo Ye, will be the eldest grandson Wuji today, leading all the ministers and the head of all officials."

Li Yuanfang added without hesitation: "Of course, if Duke Pingyang doesn't have to worry about the lives of Guan Jiujiu and Wang Bodang, they are not related to you. You can go straight to the palace when you leave the Prince Lu's mansion." It may be a great achievement to tell Li Shimin what happened today. Hehe, this king is not threatening you, but just reminding you."

Damn, father and son sing double reeds, one sings bad face, the other sings red face, both hard and soft, both ways!

Guo Ye gave a wry smile, spread out his hands and said, "Do I still have a choice now?"

"it is good!"

Li Yuan praised with a ruddy complexion: "He who understands current affairs is a hero, it seems that I have not found the wrong person."

After finishing speaking, Li Yuan got up and patted Guo Ye's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Okay, Guo Aiqing has stayed here for too long, so as not to be seen and spread to Shimin's ears, you should go back to the mansion first. What's the matter?" The news, the widow will let Yuanfang and the others send someone to your house to inform you."

Guo Ye got up slowly. To be honest, he was in a mess right now and urgently needed to go home and calm down for a while. He didn't want to stay here for a moment longer.

Afterwards, he cupped his hands at Li Yuan and said, "Then it's settled, please keep your word and don't hurt Lao Guan and Uncle Wang's seniors, I will retire first."

After finishing speaking, he went straight out of the gazebo and headed towards the gate of Prince Lu's Mansion.

Li Yuan shouted to King Lu who was outside the gazebo: "Yuan Qing, send Guo Aiqing off for Emperor Father!"

"Here! My son knows..."

……

……

Although Guo Ye left, the eyes of Li Yuan and Li Yuanfang's father and son still fell on his receding back.

After a long time, Li Yuan suddenly asked, "Yuan Fang, what do you think?"

Li Yuanfang said: "Father, this person is famous for protecting his weaknesses and speaking out about his loyalty. He will definitely throw a rat's finger at Jiujiu and Wang Bodang in our hands. Therefore, my son concluded that he dare not ignore the lives of these two people, and went out." The palace will go to the palace to inform."

"Hehe, you're right. What the widows value is not only his intelligence and current strength, but also his character of protecting his weaknesses and his loyalty."

Li Yuan stroked his beard and smiled, and said: "It's a good thing to protect one's shortcomings and be loyal, but it's often difficult to achieve great things."

Li Yuanfang knew the true meaning of what my father said, and immediately echoed: "What what my father said is true. But this person is not in the same heart with us, we should be more careful, father."

"Yuan Fang, you are right!"

Li Yuan grunted and said, "Then you know what to do next?"

Li Yuanfang put away his smile, and replied cautiously: "I know that tomorrow, I will send people to follow him, and ambush people outside Pingyang County's mansion, turning them into civilian vendors. If the wind blows and the grass stirs, he will destroy the whole family of Guo Mansion!!!”

"Humph!"

Li Yuan's eyes flashed fiercely, and he nodded in agreement: "It should be so. Those who achieve great things must not only be informal, but also decisive. This point, the three of you brothers must learn from Shimin. This child is cruel. Nah!"

"My son knows it!"

Chapter 990 The Opportunity Comes

After Guo Ye left Prince Lu's mansion, just as Li Yuanfang guessed, he was really a stalker, and he didn't rush to the palace to make a small report to His Majesty Li Er, but pretended nothing happened, and went straight back to Taipingfang The Pingyang County Government.

As soon as he returned to the Pingyang County Government House, Guo Ye locked himself in the study room without seeing anyone, and he never stepped out of the room.

After a long time, until it was dark and midnight, Guo Ye's belly was rumbling like thunder, and he felt hungry, so he came out of the study room, and after some simple meals, he went back to his room to rest.

Tonight, light up the east chamber, and stay overnight at Xiuxiu's side.

This is not only the benefit of Xiuxiu being the main wife, but also Guo Ye's hard work, in order to get Xiuxiu pregnant as soon as possible, to stop the old lady's idea of ​​continuing to take concubines for him, and to stop the old lady's idea.

Otherwise, if you take another concubine, this huge Pingyang County government will really have a peaceful day with housework.

The much-anticipated human-creation movement has turned into an arduous political task in disguise.

In short, for the sake of harmony in the mansion, Guo Ye can only do this for the time being, and he can only work hard to let Xiuxiu win the bid.

Let's attack, Brother Guo!

The curtains are lowered slowly, the lights of the candlesticks are suddenly extinguished, and Yingying and Yanyan are low-key and gentle, and the whole night of spring night, the romantic taste in it is naturally not enough for outsiders!

The spring night is short, and the next day when I wake up, the sun is already rising, and the beauty by my pillow is long gone, so I am busy in the mansion.

Guo Ye had sorted out all the things in the study yesterday, and after waking up, his mind was naturally clear in every possible way, without so many tedious entanglements, he felt refreshed.

Because His Majesty Li Er gave him a few days off, he didn't need to get up early to go to court.So after washing up and simply finishing his breakfast, he guessed that it was time to go to court, so he ordered Zhang Jiujin and Wang Bajin, the school lieutenants of the county government, to prepare their chariots and horses and leave the mansion to go to the Ministry of Officials Kong Yingda's house paid a visit.

When I went to Kong Yingda's mansion, I naturally wanted to discuss with the old man how to step down from the position of Minister of Rites.

Now that Yu Shinan is not in Chang'an, Guo Ye can only discuss this matter with the second backbone of the Qingliu School of Scholars.

Soon, Zhang Jiujin came in and reported that the carriage was set up and ready to go at any time.

Guo Ye hummed, and left the county mansion with Zhang Jiujin.

Outside the mansion, Wang Bajin was in charge of driving the horses and carts, while Zhang Jiujin rode the horses and accompanied the carriages as guards.

Guo Ye came to the carriage and was about to board the carriage, but found that there were several temporary stalls outside his house for no reason, including tea stalls, vegetable stalls, Nima's, and a special one selling Dali pills and yelling and playing tricks. stall……

What's happening here?When did the front of the Guo Mansion become so busy?

At this time, Wang Bajin, who was driving, whispered to Guo Ye: "Sir, none of these people were there yesterday. In just one night, these things came out of nowhere. Could it be that these people heard that your lord You have been promoted to Duke of Pingyang County, and you are favored by the emperor, so you are very popular, do you think that our place is lucky, and you all come here to practice stalls to rejoice?"

Zhang Jiujin tightened the reins, raised the whip in his hand, and said in a low voice, "Master Jun, do you want me to drive away these unsightly things? Don't disturb the old lady by making noise at the door of our house." And the quietness of the madam and the others."

"Hehe, no way!"

Guo Ye waved his hand, shook his head and said, "It's all just for dinner, there's no need to embarrass others. Let's go, go to Lord Kong Yingda's house."

"Here!"

After Guo Ye got into the carriage, Wang Bajin slapped it and drove the carriage slowly towards the entrance of Taipingfang.

Guo Ye sat in the car, stretched out his hand and raised the curtain of the car, glanced at the stalls outside his house through the car window, with an inexplicable smile on his face.

Afterwards, he muttered to himself: "Your Majesty, you are so careful that you even sent someone to watch outside my house. What's the matter? Could it be that if I don't follow suit, you still want to slaughter my entire Guo family? Tsk tsk, these piles You did it so blatantly, it seems that you guys have decided to eat me, hmph...sometimes you cry!"

Da Da Da~

The horse's hooves were stomping, and the wheels of the carriage were creaking and turning. After the carriage left the entrance of the square, it turned onto Zhuque Street, and then headed towards the square area where Kong Yingda's mansion was located.
