    "What nonsense are you talking about? Why is Qingyu here with me? She is just like this. She came here during the day. What girl would run around at night? Come on! Go on!"

    Li Quan stood on the steps with his arms akimbo, not allowing Li Zhen to enter the door, and kept urging him to leave. Li Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. The eldest sister's abnormal behavior showed that Wang Qingyu was in her house.

    Li Zhen felt relieved and said with a smile: "If the eldest sister sees Qingyu and takes good care of her for me, I will leave first."

    Li Zhen got on his horse and rode away with his men. Li Quan curled his lips and said, "What do you mean by taking good care of her for me? You brat, you haven't even changed your horoscope yet!"

    Li Quan closed the door and walked quickly into the inner hall. He saw Wang Qingyu sitting at the small table, wiping tears with a handkerchief. His eyes were red from crying and swollen like a peach.

    "Sister, who is it?" Wang Qingyu asked a little uneasily when he saw Li Quan coming back.

    "It's a wine shop owner who asked me to double the amount of wine delivered tomorrow."

    Li Quan didn't want to say that it was his brother who was here, so he covered it up casually. She asked nervously: "Your eldest brother really wants to marry you to that one. What kind of king do you want to live?"

    A trace of anger flashed in Wang Qingyu's eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said, "It's not about marrying me, it's about giving it to him to be his concubine."

    "Hey! It's true, your eldest brother. If you don't marry a good family, you have to send her to the palace. Those palaces are dark! You can't get out if you go in. How can you be as free as marrying my brother?"

    Wang Qingyu¡¯s face suddenly turned red, and she whispered coyly: ¡°Sister¡ª¡ª¡±

    Li Quan chuckled, held Wang Qingyu's hand again, and prevented her from running away. He asked her in a low voice: "Tell me the truth, are you willing to marry my brother?"

    Wang Qingyu was so embarrassed that her neck turned red. Her hand was held by Li Quan and she could not escape. She lowered her head deeply and nodded gently after a while. Li Quan was overjoyed and said quickly: "Don't worry!  I will arrange everything. I have long thought that you should be my sister-in-law, and I have been waiting for this day!"

    Wang Qingyu bit her lip, "But. My brother will come to embarrass my eldest sister."

    "He dares!"

    Li Quan said angrily: "Tomorrow I will ask Fatty to do a favor and bring some soldiers to live in my house. I think he dares to come and rob people."

    " Having said that, Li Quan was still a little uneasy. She was very shrewd and immediately thought of a place where Wang Yuanbao could not be found.

    Before dawn the next day, a carriage left Li Quan's mansion and drove out of the city. Li Quan hid Wang Qingyu in a farmhouse outside the city. It was the home of one of her men, Li Quan.  Of course, he also knew that Wang Yuanbao would not dare to rob someone in his own house or his brother's house, but this was a bit unreasonable, after all, they were brother and sister.

    At noon the next day, a servant ran back to the palace. Wang Yuanbao was pacing back and forth in the lobby with his hands behind his hands, feeling restless. The servant came panting and said: "Master, we know the whereabouts of the second girl."

    Wang Yuanbao hurriedly grabbed the servant's lapel and asked, "Where is he?"

    "It should be in Dongzhu Li's house."

    "What is should?"

    "Sir, although we didn't see anyone, Dongzhu Li's mansion has never been guarded by soldiers, but today there are a few more soldiers guarding the door. We guess they must be in the mansion."

    In fact, Wang Yuanbao suspected that his sister was hiding in Li Quan's house. Now he was even more sure. He gritted his teeth with hatred, "Li Zhen, you are going too far. Let's wait and see!"

    He then ordered a dozen of his subordinates, "Keep an eye on Li Quan at the gate. If you find the target, you will immediately rob him."

    Wang Yuanbao walked quickly back to the study, spread out a piece of letter paper, picked up a pen and started to write a letter. He did not believe that there was no one in the world who could not suppress Li Zhen.

    Time has gradually passed for another half month, the white dew has passed, the weather is getting cooler day by day, the autumn wind is bleak, the leaves on the big trees have turned yellow, and pieces are falling in the wind.

    The Wang family has also slowly calmed down, and Wang Qingyu still hasn't come back. The storm caused by Wang Qingyu's departure seems to have subsided, at least on the surface it is no longer mentioned.

    In fact, Wang Yuanbao has not been calm for a day. He is eagerly waiting for news from the capital, but he is also afraid that Li Zhen will suddenly host a banquet, which may mean that his sister has been taken as his concubine, but he doesn't think about it.  Maybe, after all, the Wang family is also a member of the royal family, and no matter how strong Li Zhen is, he can't do such a violation of etiquette.

    ¡°And his men have been following Li Quan¡¯s residence for a month, and finally he realized that his sister was not in Li Quan¡¯s residence, nor in Li Zhen¡¯s residence at all. Who knew where she was hiding?

    This made Wang Yuanbao upset. The further time went by, the worse it became for him.

    At noon, he was sitting in the inner hall drinking tea when the housekeeper suddenlyHe ran over and shouted: "Master! Master!"

    ¡°What happened, so panicked!¡± Wang Yuanbao asked dissatisfied.

    "Master, Prince Shouchun is here, right outside the gate of the mansion."

    "ah!"

    Wang Yuanbao screamed, and the tea cup in his hand fell to the ground, smashing to pieces. He didn't care about the tea cup, got up and ran out of the gate, looking for the stars and the moon, and finally he saw Li Chengqi.

    A carriage stopped outside the gate of the palace, followed by more than a dozen attendants. A young master was seen standing beside the carriage with his hands behind his hands. Although he was wearing an ordinary person's robe, he could not hide his noble temperament. This  The famous young master is Li Dan's eldest son, Li Chengqi, the prince of Shouchun County.

    Of course, Li Chengqi came here because of Wang Qingyu's affairs. He set off the next day after receiving Wang Yuanbao's letter. Frankly speaking, Li Chengqi had already taken a liking to Wang Qingyu's beauty. If his father hadn't firmly opposed his marriage,  The merchant's daughter was a concubine, and he had come to marry her a long time ago, but his father's opposition could not stop Li Chengqi from forgetting Wang Qingyu.

    At this time, Wang Yuanbao walked out of the mansion quickly, bowed and saluted: "Wang Yuanbao, see your highness!"

    Wang Yuanbao was extremely excited. He did not expect that Li Chengqi would come to Chang'an in person, but at the same time, he also felt a little uneasy in his heart. He felt that things seemed to be a bit big.

    Li Chengqi nodded, "This is not the place to talk, let's talk after we go in!"

    "Your Highness, please!"

    Wang Yuanbao invited Li Chengqi into the inner hall. Li Chengqi sat down and a concubine served them tea. Li Chengqi was a little tired from running all the way. He took a sip of tea and slowly calmed down.

    "Proprietor Wang, my father asked me to express my sincere gratitude to you. We will never forget the Wang family's support for us."

    Wang Yuanbao felt warm in his heart, and the prince had not forgotten him.

    Li Chengqi comforted Wang Yuanbao first, and then turned the topic to the main topic today. He took out the letter Wang Yuanbao wrote to him from his arms, put it on the table and pushed it to Wang Yuanbao, "Give this back to you!"

    "This is¡­¡­"

    Wang Yuanbao became a little flustered. He didn¡¯t understand what Li Chengqi meant. ¡°Your Highness, you don¡¯t want to¡ª¡±

    Li Chengqi waved his hand to prevent him from talking any more. Of course he was moved by Wang Qingyu's beauty, but compared to the country of the Tang Dynasty, a woman was nothing.

    "My father hopes you won't mention this matter again. He strongly supports Li Zhen marrying Dongzhu Wang's sister."

    Wang Yuanbao seemed to have been hit head-on and was a little confused. Li Chengqi said again: "Li Zhen is very important to us. We hope to get his support. If he can marry with the Wang family, it will be of great help to our great cause."  ¡±

    Speaking of this, Li Chengqi said to Wang Yuanbao apologetically: "I know you are not willing, but for the sake of our great cause, I still have to wrong you."

    Wang Yuanbao was not only aggrieved, he was about to cry. Is the dream of his royal relatives about to be shattered?

    "But Your Highness, my sister would rather follow you!"

    Li Chengqi gave a helpless smile. If he turned against Li Zhen because of a woman, then he would be too incompetent. Seeing that Wang Yuanbao was still not enlightened, he secretly became a little annoyed, and said in a more serious tone: "Dr. Wang, I hope you can  Understand, this is my father asking you!"

    Wang Yuanbao suddenly woke up. He immediately lowered his head like a wilted chicken. He knew that he had no choice

    Li Quan came home from the store in the evening and saw a carriage parked at the door. She felt a little strange and asked the concierge, "Old Wang, who is here?"

    The concierge greeted him with a smile, "Mrs. Qizhen, the wife of the great proprietor Wang is here."

    Li Quan was stunned, "Is she Wang Yuanbao's wife?"

    "Yes! She has been waiting in the living room for a while."

    Li Quan¡¯s thoughts suddenly changed. Could it be that Wang Yuanbao sent his wife to give him an ultimatum?

    Li Quan quickly walked into the door and walked towards the living room.

    Walking up the steps of the living room, he saw a young woman with heavy makeup sitting in the hall. Her black hair was decorated with pearls and she was dressed very elegantly. Li Quan knew that Wang Yuanbao's wife's surname was Zhang, and she was the daughter of another rich man in Chang'an.  .

    "I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long." Li Quan walked into the living room with a smile on his face.

    Mrs. Zhang stood up quickly, with a smile on her snow-white face and said, "I came uninvited and disturbed Boss Li."

    "You're welcome, please sit down!"

    Li Quan asked Mrs. Zhang to sit down and asked the maid to bring new tea. Mrs. Zhang leaned over and said with a smile, "I came here today for the purpose of whispering."

    "Wait a minute"?!  "

    Li Quan quickly interrupted her, "Madam, you don't think Qingyu is hiding here with me, do you?"

    "No! That's not what I meant. I'm not here to see Qingyu. I'm here to talk about Qingyu's marriage."

    "oh¡ª¡ª"

    This result is beyond Li Quan¡¯s expectation. Wang Yuanbao vowed never to marry into the Li family. Now his wife comes to talk about marriage. What is the reason that makes Wang Yuanbao change his mind?

    However, being willing to discuss marriage is always a good thing. Li Quan put away his sarcasm and said sincerely: "My mind has not changed yet. If the Wang family is willing to marry Qingyu to my brother, our family will never wrong her."  ¡±

    Mrs. Zhang smiled and nodded, "Logically, I should talk to Mrs. Di about this matter, but my master still wants to talk to Mr. Li. In principle, we also agree to Mrs. Di's proposal, but there are two conditions."

    "Please tell me, what are the two conditions?"

    "As the saying goes, a girl without father and brothers is called running, and a girl with father and brothers is called married. Our Wang family is also a respectable person in Chang'an. We hope that General Li can make it clear that the matchmaker is marrying my family Qingyu. Except for not having to pay a visit, the other ceremonies should be the same."

    This request is not too much. The biggest difference between marrying a wife and marrying a concubine is in the worship ceremony. If you marry a concubine and have to worship in the church, it is disrespectful to the principal wife. The principal wife will not agree and will be criticized by others. The Wang family also knows this.  Therefore, they require the most demanding ceremony, which is to marry a daughter in a graceful manner, besides worshiping in the church.

    Li Quan nodded, "I can agree, please tell me the second condition."

    "The second condition requires General Li's agreement. My Qingyu is not a concubine, but a second wife. She has the right to receive the royal decree. Even if General Li marries another concubine in the future, he will not be equal to Qingyu."

    Li Quan smiled and said: "Actually, I told my husband before that we will not whisper aggrievedly, that's what I mean."

    "Okay! In addition, there is still a small obstacle that General Li needs to clear, and that is the Changsun family."
