Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Changsun Yan never expected that Li Chengqi, the prince of Shouchun County, would come to visit him, and he would come so late. It was already past the first watch, and the gates had long been closed. He was enjoying the bed with several concubines when Li Chengqi came unexpectedly.

    Although this was a very rude time, Changsun Yan knew that this was to avoid the eyes and ears of interested people. He quickly got dressed and went to the gate to greet him in person.

    Li Chengqi's carriage stopped at the side gate of Changsun Mansion. At this time, he was sitting in the carriage and did not get off. Li Chengqi was also helpless. He did not expect that Li Zhen would ask him to do this. Once the Holy Emperor knew that he went to Chang'an to visit the Guanlong nobles, the consequences would be terrible.  It was unthinkable, but he had to do this favor.

    ¡®Squeak!  ' With a sound, the side door opened, and Zhang Sunyan, wearing casual clothes and a small hat, appeared at the door. He was looking around, "This way!" Li Chengqi shouted in a low voice from inside the carriage.

    Changsun Yan was stunned for a moment, and it took him a long time to realize that Li Chengqi asked him to get into the carriage to talk. He quickly walked out of the side door and got directly into the carriage.

    "I'm sorry for bothering Uncle Shi like this!"

    Changsun Yan is the grandson of Changsun Wuji. He is indeed a generation higher than Li Chengqi, but the other party is the eldest son of the Prime Minister. Changsun Yan did not dare to be rude. He quickly bowed and said: "I am here to see you, Your Highness!"

    ¡°Let¡¯s keep the story short!¡±

    Li Chengqi gave an order, and the carriage started slowly and clattered in the square. Changsun Yan was surprised. He didn't know how Li Chengqi came to Chang'an. He must have something important. He didn't dare to say anything and listened attentively.

    Li Chengqi pondered for a while and said: "Father asked me to talk to Uncle Shi. The situation in the court has been relatively stable recently. We plan to move the warriors from the south to the north and train them near Luoyang, but we can't find a suitable place for the time being.  "

    Although Changsun Yan could not speak, he still understood what Li Chengqi meant. He quickly said: "Your Highness, please tell me! I will buy the manor where the warriors need to be placed."

    Li Chengqi thought of what Li Zhen had told him, saying that Changsun Yan was not reliable and could not let him know the core secrets. He smiled and said, "We haven't decided where to put it yet? But we plan to buy a large building with a thousand hectares of land."  The manor costs about 30,000 yuan."

    Li Chengqi changed his mind about entrusting full power to Chang Sun Yan. He only needed Sun Yan to provide money and let reliable people handle the purchase of the manor.

    Changsun Yan didn't realize what Li Chengqi really meant. Although the amount of 30,000 yuan was unimaginable for ordinary people, it was not a large sum for the Changsun family. After only a slight hesitation, Changsun Yan readily agreed, "This is  I will let the Wang family hand over the money to Your Highness, and you can withdraw it at any time whenever you need it.¡±

    The carriage made a roundabout turn in the square and slowly lost sight of Changsun Mansion.

    "I have one more thing to ask Uncle Shi today, and that is about Wang Yuanbao's sister. Uncle Shi should know about it, right?"

    How could the eldest Sun Yan not know that Wang Qingyu was the concubine he planned to marry for his third son's wedding, but the third son died of illness, and Wang Qingyu did not marry her, but the eldest Sun Yan did not allow Wang Qingyu to remarry. On the one hand, she was related to the eldest grandson.  On the other hand, the family's face is also to control the Wang family, but more importantly, Zhang Sunyan does not look down on the Wang family at all.

    Sun Yan, the eldest son, was slow to react in other respects, but he was quick to respond. He immediately understood and said with a smile: "If His Highness falls in love with Wang Qingyu, of course I will not stop him. I will cancel this engagement with the Wang family tomorrow."

    Li Chengqi smiled and nodded, "Uncle Shi's attitude is admirable. I believe my father will appreciate it, but it's not me who wants to marry Miss Wang, but Li Zhen who wants to marry her."

    Changsun Yan was stunned. The carriage came to the side door of Changsun's house again and stopped slowly

    A few months after Li Zhen took office, two major events were reported in Li Zhen's house. One was that Li Zhen's wife, Mrs. Di, was pregnant, and the other was more interesting. Li Zhen was going to marry a daughter of the Wang family.  Wife, although the essence of a second wife is no different from a concubine, the second wife Li Zhen is going to marry is still different from an ordinary concubine.

    Firstly, the Wang family wants to marry a daughter in a glamorous manner, which is different from the ordinary concubine-taking process of using a carriage to bring someone into the house at night. Secondly, it is rumored that the Holy Emperor, in order to commend Li Zhen for his contribution, specially issued a decree to confer a fifth-grade imperial edict on the daughter of the Wang family.  Madam, this is very different from ordinary concubines who have no status.

    Of course, a discerning person will understand that the second wife is the second wife and can never replace the first wife.

    At night, Li Zhen sat next to Di Yan, put his ear against her belly and listened for a moment. Di Yan stroked his hair and smiled: "It's still early! The midwife said that you can hear it in two months."

    At this time, a maid at the door whispered: "General, Mrs. Quan is urging the general again."

    Li Zhen was upset and turned around and scolded: "Just tell her to wait a little longer, and I will go over."

    ??Di Yan persuaded with a smile: "Go! You have to try on clothes today and leave early tomorrow morning, otherwise it will be too late."

    According to the plan reached by Li Quan and the Wang family, the wedding ceremony for marrying a wife was changed to the wedding ceremony for marrying a concubine. Tomorrow morning, the Wang family will send Wang Qingyu to Li Quan's house, and Li Zhen will greet her at the gate, where she will meet Di Yan  They perform a simple husband and wife ceremony, and then go back to Li Zhen's house in the evening to perform the sister ceremony with Di Yan. This is the complete process of marrying a concubine.

    This plan was of course approved by Di Yan. After all, Di Yan was the official wife. Whether it was taking a concubine or taking a concubine, it was Di Yan who had the final say. Li Quan was just the organizer.

    The plan took care of the Wang family¡¯s face and Di Yan¡¯s dignity at the same time, and both parties expressed their acceptance.

    Li Zhen nodded, shook Di Yan's hand, "I'll be back soon!"

    He stood up and left quickly. Di Yan watched her husband leave and couldn't help but sigh. No woman wants her husband to marry another woman. However, some things must be learned to compromise appropriately in order to win Li Zhen's presence.  Make concessions in other aspects, otherwise one day when Shangguan Wan'er walks in, it will be Di Yan's nightmare

    Although the rumors of the Wang family¡¯s married women spread a lot in Chang¡¯an, when the Wang family¡¯s team of married women actually appeared, not many people were interested.

    Of course, this was related to Wang Yuanbao's sudden change of plan. He was planning to form a team of more than 500 people to see off his bride, but Wang Qingyu strongly opposed it.  The escort team was reduced to fifty people.

    So much so that when Wang Qingyu¡¯s wedding party appeared, many people didn¡¯t realize that this fifty-person wedding party was actually the sister of the richest man in Chang¡¯an getting married, thinking it was just an ordinary wedding party.

    This is actually the shrewdness of businessman Wang Yuanbao. Since he can no longer prevent his sister from marrying Li Zhen, he must earn the maximum benefit from this marriage. After all, Li Zhen is left behind in Chang'an and has considerable power, so first of all he cannot  After falling out with his sister, he couldn't offend Li Zhen, so Wang Yuanbao obediently complied with any request Wang Qingyu made.

    Wang Qingyu and his personal maid were sitting in a gorgeous carriage. In front were more than a dozen drummers playing and playing, followed by more than a dozen carriages, fully loaded with Wang Qingyu's dowry. Each carriage was followed by two mounted guards.

    Wang Qingyu was wearing a phoenix crown and a red wedding robe. She was extremely excited. This was a major event in her life and her lifelong destination. She had been looking forward to this day for a long time, but she did not expect that it would finally become a reality. Tears fell softly from the corners of her eyes.  Sliding down gently, she couldn't help crying with joy.

    However, as the carriage got closer and closer to Xuanyangfang, Wang Qingyu became a little nervous, and she also felt a little uneasy. After all, she and Li Zhen were not as familiar as Di Yan. Could there be a relationship between them?  She was a little embarrassed. Thinking of the embarrassment, she suddenly remembered what she had to do tonight, her face suddenly turned red with embarrassment, and her whole body became hot.

    ¡°Girl, we¡¯re here!¡±

    The maid gave a low reminder, and Wang Qingyu realized that her carriage had already entered Xuanyangfang.

    ¡®Bang!  Snap!  ¡¯

    Deafening bursts of firecrackers sounded in Xuanyangfang. Unlike the deserted outside, Xuanyang was crowded with people. Almost every household came out to watch the Wang family¡¯s married daughter. Both sides of the carriage were crowded with men and women.  There were smiling faces everywhere, shouting blessings, and several Wang family attendants scattered handfuls of copper coins into the crowd, causing a scramble among the children.

    There were more and more people, and the road was so crowded that even carriages could not move forward. At this time, Jiu Zhi led a hundred soldiers and shouted: "Folks, please use your light to let the newcomers pass."

    The crowd finally made way, and the carriage began to drive slowly, stopping in front of Li Quan's house. The door of the house was filled with hundreds of wooden plaques and decorated with lanterns and lights. Li Zhen stood at the gate wearing the groom's clothes. At this time  , the two Xi Niangs helped Wang Qingyu out, and a dozen maids immediately covered her with fans. Li Zhen walked forward with a smile, and walked side by side with Wang Qingyu, and the two slowly walked towards the mansion.  .

    "How are you on the road?" Li Zhen asked with a low smile.

    Wang Qingyu was too shy and nervous to say anything, so she just said in a low voice, "Yeah!"  ¡¯ After a sound, the ceremony for husband and wife is very simple, that is, the two people kneel down in front of a table with wedding candles and incense, and worship heaven and earth three times together, and then the husband and wife bow to each other, missing the kneeling ceremony in the high hall.

    "We worship heaven and earth together!"

    With Li Quan shouting loudly, Li Zhen and Wang Qingyu knelt down on the cushions together and bowed to heaven and earth three times side by side.

    ¡°Husband and wife greet each other!¡±¡­

    It was already dark, and the carriage was also dark. Wang Qingyu sat quietly by the window, her head bowed deeply. Although she and Li Zhen had already worshiped heaven and earth, she was still very nervous and shy, and did not dare to say anything to her.  Looking at my husband sitting next to me??

    Li Zhen gently held her smooth and delicate hand and laughed softly: "When I was in Gaochang, I admired you like a fairy. I never believed that one day you would become my wife."

    Wang Qingyu also whispered: "At that time, you stared at others with a sly look on your face, with an uneasy and well-meaning look on your face."

    ¡°I didn¡¯t dare at that time, but now I feel a little uneasy.¡±

    With that said, Li Zhen gently hugged her waist and let her nestle in his arms. Wang Qingyu's heart was pounding with nervousness. She knew what was going to happen, so she was very nervous, but there was also a trace of expectation.

    At this time, Li Zhen lowered his head and kissed her red and slightly open lips. Wang Qingyu closed her eyes and fell limply into Li Zhen's arms.
