Wake up and become a son-in-law

Turkic tribe

It has been several days since Lan Yuheng left. Wei Liyu is always a little unaccustomed to this time. Every time he can't help but want to walk to Lan Yuheng's tent, but it turns out that there is always no one inside. He also feels a little sorry for Lan Yuheng in his heart. accurate!

In the end, he just glanced at it and went out. At this time, Wu Jiang came over and said, "This is a letter from the superior." He took out the letter and handed it to Wei Liyu. Wei Liyu's beautiful eyes wavered, but he still took it calmly. letter, and then returned to his big account with a calm expression.

As soon as he returned to the big tent, he couldn't wait to open the letter. Looking at the content inside, his face softened slightly and he was silent for a moment, "Here comes..."

"Chief?" A guard came in, and Wei Liyu said calmly, "Let all the Tang troops go, and let them go back to the Tang Dynasty. Having so many mouths is really a waste of food." The subordinate was stunned, "Chief, what is the Tang army doing?" If you didn’t agree to our request, wouldn’t it be good to just let him go like this?”

Wei Liyu frowned, "Just do what I ask you to do. Where's all the nonsense? By the way, call that Xue Huaiyi to me and say that I'm inviting him to dinner."

"Yes..." The subordinates didn't dare to ask anymore and went to let him go...

Prince Yue's Mansion

"Your Majesty! Xie Zijun of the Xie family outside is asking for an audience." Li Zhen, the king of Yue in the palace, was worried. Hearing Xie Zijun's arrival, he was stunned. "Isn't this Xie Zijun always in Chang'an? Why did he suddenly come to see me?"

"Your Majesty, since the other party is here, there must be something going on, why don't you come in and ask?" Liu Xiao, a retainer on the side, smiled. Li Zhen nodded and said, "That makes sense, let's prepare some tea."

Xie Zijun was standing alone at the door of Prince Yue's Mansion. She looked around and said, "It seems that there is no sir in the palace... Well, I miss you sir. It's time to go back to see your sir after the things here are done..." Xie Zijun His eyes curved, and when he saw footsteps coming, Xie Zijun also showed a serious expression.

"Thank you, Mr. Wang. Your Majesty invites you." The servant made an invitation gesture.

Xie Zijun nodded, straightened his robes and walked in. When Li Zhen saw Xie Zijun, he also smiled and greeted him, "It turns out to be Zijun. I have come to welcome you from afar. What kind of wind brought you here today?" "

Xie Zijun bent down and saluted, "Xie Zijun has met the King of Yue." Li Zhen wanted to help Xie Zijun, but saw Xie Zijun straightened up on his own, "Oh...I won't bother you, Your Majesty, I can't bear it."

"Hahaha, Zijun is still so humble. Please take a seat." Li Zhen sat down first, and the servant also served tea to Xie Zijun. Li Zhen smiled slightly, "Zijun, your father and I haven't seen each other for a long time. , if I talk about it, I’m afraid I haven’t spoken for many years..."

"The King of Yue has been in Xiangzhou, so it is inevitable that we will be unfamiliar," Xie Zijun said with a smile, and Li Zhen nodded, "Yes, I didn't expect you to be so old after we said goodbye. Time really flies... things have changed and people have changed."

Xie Zijun smiled and said, "What the prince said is absolutely true. There are still the same people here, but Chang'an is still not the same Chang'an..." Li Zhen raised her eyebrows inadvertently and put down the teacup. "Is there something in Zijun's words?"

Xie Zijun smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I misunderstood. I just said that the people of Chang'an are a new generation replacing the old ones. The changes in Chang'an are quite big." Li Zhen took a breath and sighed, "Hey! Who can say otherwise? Back then, I was still As the emperor's younger brother goes on a hunting trip, now he is one step ahead of me. Alas...it really makes me sad!"

Xie Zijun smiled slightly, "My lord, there is no need to be sad. Now that Prince Li Xian has succeeded to the throne, and with the assistance of the Queen Mother..., I believe that the prince will be another wise king."

When Li Zhen heard Wu Meiniang, she couldn't help but snorted, "Humph! What can a woman like her do to help? Look at what she did to her former ministers? Is this something a woman can do? She is still right now The Li family..." Li Zhen seemed to realize something and turned to smile, "Ha... I am going too far. I wonder why Zijun came here today?"

Xie Zijun smiled and said, "Actually, it's nothing. I just happened to be passing by Xiangzhou today, so I came to visit on behalf of my father." Li Zhen's eyes flickered, "I see, that's Zijun's intention. Since we are here, we will stay and have a meal together today." Let’s eat”

Xie Zijun waved his hand, "Your Majesty, you're welcome. I just came here for a visit today, so I won't bother you anymore." Li Zhen said hurriedly, "Why are Zijun leaving in such a hurry? Since you are here, you have to give me some face, right? Otherwise, let the news go back." Your father, can’t you blame me for being stingy and not even caring about a meal when you come to visit? Doesn’t this mean that I don’t even have a meal in my huge palace?”

Xie Zijun looked a little embarrassed, and Li Zhen said with a straight face, "Zijun, if you refuse like this, you are not giving me face." Xie Zijun then raised his hand and said, "Then you will bother the prince."

Li Zhen then smiled and said, "Although I have been in Xiangzhou, Su Wenzijun is very witty. Even the emperor praised you very much. You also made great achievements in resisting Tibet. I also admire you very much." ..”

Xie Zijun smiled awkwardly, "These are just false rumors. The one who really made great achievements was my husband Lan Yuheng. If he hadn't gone deep alone with a team of less than [-] people, how could he have defeated Tubo? Compared with my husband, I This is nothing to say." Speaking of Lan Yuheng, Xie Zijun is quite motivated!

"Oh? I am also acquainted with Lan Yuheng. He is a very talented person. I wanted to marry my daughter to him, but he refused because he had too many wives and concubines." Speaking of this matter, Li Zhen was also a little bit Unfortunately, Xie Zijun raised his eyebrows unconsciously. Seeing that Xie Zijun was a little strange, Li Zhen smiled and asked, "What's wrong with Zijun's nephew? Is this tea not to your liking?"

"Oh, it's okay... Sir, he does have a lot of wives and concubines, maybe... he's not up to his ability." Xie Zijun didn't know how to answer, and Li Zhen also smiled awkwardly, and turned his eyes, "I heard that Zijun's nephew and Ping Xihou We have a very good relationship, and he should be able to help you with many things..."

Better? That was her husband-in-law, the person they slept with! Of course, Xie Zijun would not say this, and remained calm-faced, "It's okay, now he is a popular person around the Queen Mother, and he can be cleared of even the crime of treason."

Li Zhen frowned without trace, "What does Zijun think differently about today's court? Ha... You and I are in Xiangzhou now, so some things are just small talk."

Xie Zijun smiled and said, "Zijun doesn't know much about this, but it's a bit inappropriate for Wu Meiniang to interfere in politics like this. After all, our Xie family is considered an old family, and we are loyal to the emperor, so naturally we don't want to see these things happen..." "

"Oh? What does Zijun's nephew mean..." Li Zhen asked some probing questions. Xie Zijun picked up the tea and took a sip. "Zijun was just a suggestion. This Wu Meiniang hit the old minister extremely hard. Moreover, he intentionally or unintentionally took action against the Li family. It is not difficult to see that the attack on the veteran minister is a fake attack on the royal family, but the attack on the royal family is real..."

Li Zhen's eyes were a little heavy. "It seems that Zijun's nephew has also noticed it. He is simply speaking my heart, but... I have been in Xiangzhou all the time, and I can't get involved in the affairs of the court. I don't know." What can Zijun’s nephew do?”

Xie Zijun smiled and said, "Of course there is a way, just get rid of Wu Meiniang." Li Zhen's expression changed. Seeing Xie Zijun speak so calmly, she couldn't help but feel a little confused in her heart. "Well, nephew Zijun, why don't you tell me?"

Xie Zijun saw that Li Zhen's expression changed very quickly and didn't care. "The prince's power is naturally not enough to deal with Wu Meiniang, but if we unite with other kings...then all this will be solved."

Li Zhen's eyes flickered, "Nephew Zijun is right, but I'm afraid these princes are..." Xie Zijun waved his hands and said, "My lord, don't worry, since you have a sincere heart for the Tang Dynasty, then the other few..." How could it be that the prince doesn’t have one? If you are the most prestigious, you can be considered the most prestigious. If it were up to you, the prince, to persuade you, there would be many loyal people willing to serve..."

Li Zhen's eyes lit up, "Nephew Zijun is right! This sentence speaks to my heart. This plan is feasible. I would like to thank my nephew Zijun for relieving my worries."

Xie Zijun cupped his hands, "The prince is joking, Zijun is just doing his best for the Tang Dynasty." Li Zhen nodded and said, "Yes! I am deeply touched by Zijun's nephew's loyalty. Why don't you stay and discuss it with me?" What's the big plan? After all, I have heard about Zijun's nephew's talent. When I saw it today, it turned out to be extraordinary. If possible, I would like to marry my little girl to Zijun's nephew... It would be a good thing... ..”

Xie Zijun said helplessly, "I appreciate your prince's kindness. My father is in Chang'an, and I'm afraid Zijun can't stay. If I have any plans, I will definitely inform the prince." Li Zhen's eyes were a little regretful, "Zijun's nephew is quite filial, and I understand this." , I don’t want to stay any longer, but I still need to eat today’s meal, and I’ll be meeting my little girl later, and the food and drinks are ready!”

Xie Zijun nodded, and the plan in his heart was a little faster. After finishing this meal today, he can go back to find his beloved, but he still has unspeakable expectations in his heart...

Under Lan Yuheng's advice, Wu Meiniang directly ordered a vigorous crackdown on corrupt officials, and this was also done by Di Renjie. Some wealthy gentry and dignitaries did not escape the fate of having their homes confiscated.

"My Majesty, He Jiuyuan, together with He Zhongyuan, the head of the He family, are here to visit the Marquis!" Outside Pingxihou Mansion, He Jiuyuan brought He Zhongtang to Chang'an. At this moment, they felt regretful because they did not expect Lan Yuheng to actually be there. They were cleansed from the conspiracy, and it was still the Marquis, which frightened them so much that they didn't know what to do. After all, they heard that Lan Yuheng had conspired to rebel, and launched a series of attacks on the Li family. They and Lan Yu Heng also had a grudge against him, and the Li family was extremely helpless about it. From a highly respected marquis to a rebellious minister, the Li family was also implicated. Those who had grudges before came to seek revenge.
