Gao Lishi's appearance is that he looks at his eyes, his nose, his mouth, his mouth and his heart, but in fact his eyes are wandering around. He originally wanted to see Li Linfu, Yang Shenjin, and Ye Chang put together a play, but the big play was not staged because Yang Shenjin collapsed without a fight, which made him very disappointed. But what I didn't expect was that in the blink of an eye, another unexpected drama was staged. Li Sanlang, the founder of Liyuan and the emperor of opera, personally took the stage and performed "The Story of a Son-in-law" with the prime minister of the dynasty and the eternal traitor Li Linfu. Although the play was lively and interesting, it was not what Gao Lishi had in mind, and he had an ominous feeling that if the play continued like this, sooner or later he would turn from an audience member into an actor, and he would still be half-dead from exhaustion. A thankless walk-on. Therefore, he shrank back as much as possible, trying to make himself less conspicuous. But he could shrink, but Li Longji would not let him go. Hearing Li Linfu¡¯s reason, which was obviously a lie, Li Longji smiled instead of getting angry, feeling really happy in his heart. The reason is very simple. The more Li Linfu insists, the more valuable Ye Chang's son-in-law is. If he even shamelessly makes up lies to steal his son-in-law, then he will not be able to do what he wants. "Ahem, Brother Nu, what you saiddon't forget, if the daughter has an affair with Ye Chang, how can she get ahead of the twenty-nine mother so early? When Ye Shiyi first arrived in Chang'an in the Yuan Dynasty of Tianbao, Ye Chang Meeting her Ye Chang, do you think so? " "This is." Can Ye Chang deny it? "At that time, Ye Chang, a bold and reckless maniac, fell in love with the twenty-nine mothers." Li Longji said shamelessly: "If there was an affair, the two of them had it at that time. As a father, I was also very helpless. I can only fulfill them, otherwise why would I prevent Ye Chang from getting married?" Since Li Linfu deliberately used the ambiguous word "affair" to describe the relationship between Ye Chang and Li Tengkong, Li Longji pretended not to know the other side of this word. Meaning, open your eyes and speak plainly, use your spear to attack your shield. You are the only one who has an affair, your whole family has an affair. Ye Chang was so angry when he heard that, Tianbao Yuanzai, that was six years ago. At that time, Twenty-nine Niang was only nine or ten years old. , I have an affair with such a little girl, do I really think that I am the beastly relative of their Li Tang family who shamelessly pushed down the little girl? Of course, Ye Chang only dared to slander. Now these two people are big bosses that he cannot offend. Let them fight, it is best to be at a stalemate, and finally get the best of both worlds Back to this era, we are used to seeing three wives and four concubines. In this situation, if Ye Chang does not have an eclectic mind, then he must be a Taoist teacher. But Ye Chang's morality can only be said to be on the standard line, and there is really not that much pretentiousness, so he has had such a sweet dream. "It's just that dreams are beautiful, but reality is cruel. One is Li Longji's daughter, the princess of the Tang Dynasty, and the other is Li Linfu's daughter, the prime minister's daughter. Which of these two can be taken as a concubine? "Uh" Li Linfu was almost defeated by Li Longji's shamelessness. Think about it, this is a guy who can even get his daughter-in-law to sleep with him. It's completely pointless to talk about moral integrity with him. If you want to defeat him, A shameless guy can only be more shameless than him, but the more shameless method can only say that Kong Niang has a baby in her belly? Li Linfu is an unscrupulous person, and sometimes he has no bottom line, but if he was asked to tell that his daughter was pregnant with Ye Chang's childhe couldn't say this here. Seeing that he was about to lose in this battle for his son-in-law, Li Linfu was unwilling to accept it. To a certain extent, this was a life and death battle for him. Therefore, he sighed deeply and stepped forward to worship: "The sage knows clearly that Ye Chang and my daughter have been privately engaged for life. Today, my family has made a scandal. If I can't fulfill my daughter's wishes, she will have no choice but to commit suicide Mr. Chen Well, I have been working hard for the saint for these decades, although I have not achieved much merit, but I have also worked hard. If I lose this girl, I am afraid that I will no longer be able to serve the saint" He spoke incoherently, and his true feelings were flowing, so it was obviously He threatened Li Longji that if he didn't agree to the marriage, he would give up his wife, but no one could hear the slightest threat. When Li Longji heard this, he couldn't help frowning and feeling bitter in his mouth. The Tang Dynasty still cannot do without Li Linfu. Although Li Longji has consciously supported some figures in recent years, hoping that they can replace Li Linfu in the future, from Li Shizhi to Wei Jian to Pei Kuan, these people have been eliminated without exception. Before today, he originally paid attention to Yang Shenjin, but today Yang Shenjin's performance disappointed him and he almost gave up. Looking at Ye Chang, he thought about it for a while, and then said with a smile: "Li Qing, this matter can't just be fought between the two of us Well, let's find someone to comment on it. General Gao has no daughter, so he won't fight with us. Why don't you let General Gao judge this good son-in-law?" Gao Lishi's face suddenly turned into a bitter melon. He is more suitable to be a facilitator than to go into battle and choose sides. But now, he was forced to this point. Of course he knew the purpose of Li Longji nominating him to be this judge.It was just that he was asked to play the role of this evil person to offend Li Linfu. But is Li Linfu so easily offended? Although Li Linfu was also very afraid of him, Tianbao three years ago, he would pass Li Linfu's gossip in front of Li Longji, but now Li Linfu is at the height of his power, even if he can compete with him, it will cause trouble for both sides, so he They all tried their best to avoid Li Linfu. After looking at Li Longji, then at Li Linfu, and then at Ye Chang, Gao Lishi suddenly had an idea. Isn¡¯t there a ready-made scapegoat? "Ahem, I don't have a daughter. Naturally, I won't think of recruiting Ye Shiyilang as my son-in-law. Let me say something fair. The saint and the husband are both a bit overbearing." Li Longji and Li Linfu pulled them apart as soon as he opened his mouth. They were all approved, and they were all surprised. If Gao Lishi hadn't made it clear first that he had no daughter, both of them would have suspected that he wanted to steal his son-in-law. Gao Lishi gave up for a while and then continued: "Both of you are thinking about your own thoughts, but you have never thought that this matter is Ye Shiyilang's life event. How can you not ask Ye Shiyilang what he wants?" Ye Chang He almost glared at Gao Lishi. This old eunuch was so cunning. He originally came to offend people, but now he blamed it on Ye Chang. A long time ago, Ye Chang realized that he would not be able to make the decision on his own marriage. . At home, his sister-in-law and the clan leader would rush to speak, and in court, bigwigs from all walks of life would also pay attention to his marriage. But now, he finally has the power to decide and can choose actively, but he finds that sometimes the power to choose is more difficult than the power not to choose. "Yes, it's up to Ye Chang to choose." After a moment of silence, Li Longji said with a smile: "Ye Chang, as the ancients said, a son-in-law who rides on a dragon is a son-in-law of the Tian family. That means he is really a son-in-law who rides on a dragon You choose quickly." Li Linfu was anxious. He took a few breaths without waiting for such cheating, and then said: "Ye Shiyi, you must know that the court has its own system, and a prince-in-law is not allowed to command troops. With your skills and ambitions, if you are a prince-in-law. , But we can¡¯t use them all.¡± ¡°Li Qing, I¡¯ve said this before, does it mean that my other princes-in-law can¡¯t use their abilities?¡± Each director has his own merits, but no one can compare with Ye Chang. What they are good at, Ye Chang is also good at, but what Ye Chang is good at may not be for the benefit of the world, for the sake of the saint, but also for the benefit of Ye Chang himself. He is really unsuitable for being a prince-in-law. "I will ignore you and let Ye Chang speak for himself." Of course Li Longji knew what Li Linfu said was reasonable. If Ye Chang becomes a prince-in-law, he can only stay in the capital, and at most he can run away. In Chang'an, if you make money for him in these two places, if you are not a consort, you can be transferred to another place as an official, and you can even take charge of the military and open up new territories. Therefore, he let Ye Chang speak for himself. When he thought about it, the friendship between Ye Chang and Erjiu Niang was a long one, and it was naturally much better than that between him and Li Tengkong. Ye Chang's mouth moved. It was really difficult to choose. He hated Gao Lishi even more in his heart for putting the problem in his hands. If he wanted to make a choice, he would have chosen it long ago. Without thinking for too long, Ye Chang smiled bitterly and said: "I am infinitely grateful for the love between the Holy Emperor and Xianggong Li. Human beings are not grass and trees. Who can be ruthless? The twenty-nine noble lords and the lady of the prime minister's house are both beautiful and fragrant. They are the most rare. He praised Chong Niang and Li Tengkong with a bunch of words. It was frivolous and frivolous to comment on unmarried girls from other families, but Ye Chang's attitude was very sincere and not annoying. When Chong Niang heard Ye Chang praising herself, she was immediately happy, and her heart was filled with shyness and joy. But when she heard Ye Chang praise Li Tengkong again, she suddenly became displeased. She just felt that this husband was really a heartless man. But she didn¡¯t know that since ancient times, people who are passionate must be ruthless. Her father Li Longji is like this, and so is Ye Chang. After Ye Chang praised the girls on both sides, he sighed and continued: "It would be a blessing from heaven for any one of these two girls to marry someone. Therefore, when I first heard Li Xiang's words today, I was pleasantly surprised, and when I heard it again I was even more flattered when I heard the saint's intention. It's a pity, I I" "It's just a big circle, just to buy time to make up a reasonable excuse. But when he really wanted to say something, Ye Chang looked a little stunned again. Gao Lishi was really worried when he looked like this, and he thought to himself, is it that your arrogant husband is as inhumane as me, an eunuch, and therefore cannot marry a wife? ¡° If Ye Chang knew what Gao Lishi was thinking, he would have to turn against the damn eunuch even in front of Li Longji. Seeing that everyone was paying attention, Ye Chang sighed again: "This matter is too mysterious. If it were not today, I would not dare to say it" "You said" Li Longji was impatient and asked you to choose a wife. It's not pleasant to be procrastinating like this. Anyone else would be asking when the wedding will be. "Please forgive me for your majesty, I dare to speak." Ye Chang said again. Li Linfu was happy when he heard this. If he asked Li Longji to forgive him, wouldn't it mean that he would choose his Kong Niang? The twenty-nine lady next to her curled her lips: If this guy dares not to choose her, she willshe"The trouble will come out, so that he can't get married." Li Longji said angrily: "Am I an unreasonable person, you say so." "In my early years, I was walking in the mountains, and suddenly I saw a cloud flying towards me "Ye Chang started to tell the story, and over and over again, it was the so-called rumor of meeting an immortal. There are often rumors of immortals throughout the Tang Dynasty. Even the reign title "Tianbao" used by Li Longji today is also related to the so-called immortal traces. Meeting an immortal is indeed a bit taboo, but as long as you don't act recklessly under the banner of an immortal, the court generally doesn't investigate it deeply. Ye Chang was also forced to talk about this matter at this time. There have been rumors about this matter for a long time, but Ye Chang never confirmed it personally, so everyone listened with interest. Ye Chang said that later, the immortal taught him many ways to create immortal objects, such as cement, cotton cloth, etc., and finally said: "Someone's heart is devoted to the immortal, so he does not want to return to the world, but the immortal master said, I am blessed with good luck." Although I have a destiny with immortality, it is not deep. I can only gain from this trip, assisting the saints at the top, helping famous ministers at the middle, and being a commoner at the bottom, so as to accumulate virtue, and I can still hope for immortality in the next life. If I use this ability to only care about my own wealth and enjoyment, or indulge in sexual immorality before the age of twenty-five, I will be punished by God It is not because I don't want to get married, but I really don't dare, because I am afraid of the divine punishment of the immortal. They smacked their lips, both of them feeling helpless. They were both very smart people, and they guessed that Ye Chang's words were half true and half false. They didn't dare to get married, but they were just excuses. Unless the two of them want to hold him responsible for misleading the public, they can only pretend to believe it. Gao Lishi secretly raised his thumb on the side, thinking that Ye Chang actually had this skill. This skill is not the best, but at present. It seems that he is the only one who can help Ye Chang. He did not make a choice, he just delayed the matter. He is now twenty-three years old, and he will delay the matter for another two years Women in the Tang Dynasty also married late. The Nineteenth Noble Master and Li Tengkong could not wait for two years, and the responsibility was no longer on Ye Chang's side. However, Chong Niang glared at Ye Chang bitterly, her mouth squirmed twice, but she did not dare to say that she wanted to get married. Then we can get engaged first and settle the name. If you don¡¯t need a big gift from Duke Zhou, it will be a full ceremony in two years. But just now she had been bolder, but this kind of matter involving the boudoir was not something she could talk about. Ye Chang caught sight of Erjiu Niang's expression from the corner of his eye, but he could only smile bitterly. Afterwards, he was afraid that he would have to find a way to coax the noble Lord over there. Satisfied, the two of them snorted again. Li Longji said: "In that case, you will stay in Beijing for the next two years. Li Qing, what position can you find? " "He is good at construction and financial management, so he is the ambassador of river management and water transportation. He is in charge of dredging rivers and bringing wealth from Jianghuai to Guanzhong. It is the best. "This area was originally under Yang Shenjin's control. Although Li Linfu was a little dissatisfied with Ye Chang's dodge, he still made a compromise. Li Longji knew it very well, but Yang Shenjin's performance today did make Li Longji a little bit Dissatisfied, he nodded and said: "I will follow you. "Neither of them mentioned how Ye Chang's current official position will be handled. In fact, they reached a tacit agreement that Ye Changyao will still lead it to facilitate the acquisition of Liaodong's wealth.
