Chapter 675: The family business is difficult to support


{Thank you for the monthly pass of my friend Pure Junior, and the two monthly passes of my friend Jiuye Tianzi} After the bodies of the Qiang and Xianbei people were incinerated to ashes, a brief ceremony was held in the army to mourn the fallen soldiers, and as the smell gradually wafted, the battalions prepared a sumptuous dinner to welcome the arrival of Chinese New Year's Eve and celebrate the victory of Jianzhang Palace.

Li Xiong was sullen, his eyes flickered from time to time, looking in the direction of the front hall of Jianzhang, when the battle was fierce last night, he didn't know how many times he secretly recited the curse, cursing the Ming army for its defeat and loss, and even Yang Yan died in the middle of the arrow It's a pity that the Heavenly God Buddha didn't hear his heart, and shattered his illusion with a clean victory.

In fact, Li Xiong was completely carried away by jealousy and hatred, if Yang Yan was really defeated, he would fall into the hands of Shihu, whether he could live for an hour more was a matter of two words, and even his Empress Ren and the little princess Li Hui'er would end up extremely miserable.

But he couldn't see Yang Yan's goodness, and he couldn't do anything to change his fate, and what scared him even more was that one night, Yang Yan would lure Ren to the queen in the name of Jin Yuehua or Xun Guan, and end the rest of his life with a glass of wine.

In the past few days, perhaps because of the hard work of the boat and car, or it may be because of the heavy worries, Li Xiong has lost a lot of weight, and his hair is a little more mottled.

"Lord Lang, why are you here?"

Li Xiong squatted alone behind a boulder, and Li Xiang hurriedly came over and said in surprise.

"Oh what" Li Xiong looked lifeless and asked without raising his head.

Li Xiang arched his hand and said: "Lord Lang, tomorrow is the first day, farewell to the old and welcome the new, the beginning of Vientiane, according to the etiquette must be congratulated to the King of Ming, but tomorrow is crowded, when will it be the turn of the Lord Lang, it will be the turn of the Lord Lang, there is no explanation after a congratulatory speech, so the old man thinks that while the King of Ming is now idle, the Lord Lang may wish to go to the King of Ming in advance to congratulate, it is better than tomorrow when people are crowded." ” As soon as he heard this, Li Xiong's face sank Mother, I took my own country, and I made eye contact with my own queen, only one step away from shàngchuáng, and I wanted Lao Tzu to congratulate him Li Xiong only felt that his chest was about to explode, but when he looked up and saw a young man next to Li Xiang, he understood.

That is Li Shou, the son of Li Xiang, twenty-seven years old, is also Li Xiong's younger brother, since childhood smart and studious, elegant and generous, advocating etiquette and tolerance, different from the sons of the Li family, even Li Xiong also thinks that he is extraordinary, enough to shoulder heavy responsibilities, in 320 AD, that is, the year Yang Yan crossed over, worship Li Shou as a former general, supervising the Brazilian military, that year was only nineteen years old.

Obviously, Li Xiong's sons cannot be reused because of Li Xiong, but Li Xiang is different, he is just Li Xiong's uncle, not a close relative, and now Yang Yan is thirsty for virtue, and he wants to find a career for his son.

However, because of the status of the minister, it is usually inconvenient to get close to Yang Yantao, but today, you can visit Yang Yan justifiably by celebrating the New Year's Day in advance and congratulating the great victory.

"Damn, uncle, what do you mean?"

Li Xiong said angrily In modern terms, this is to squeeze out one's own surplus value "Lord Lang Calms His Anger" Li Xiang knew that he was being seen in his mind, and he was a little embarrassed, and persuaded him in a curt.

Li Shou was not in a hurry to give his hand: "Brother has heartfelt words, please listen to my brother, my family is a prisoner, although the King of Ming treats him well, but Luoyang is the land of tigers and wolves, and his brother has a lot of business, and he knows that no one will hit the idea of his brother, or take it by skill, or take it, and the brother may resist it, so he has to go to the King of Ming to complain to the King of Ming, and how can he return to protect his brother every time."

Therefore, my family still needs someone to come out, the younger brother is not talented, willing to pick up the burden of the family business, not to seek prosperity lintel, but to maintain the family, but also from the brother to give the younger brother a chance, self-recommendation in front of the king of Ming. ” Li Xiong showed a struggling look, from his heart, he was unwilling to promote Li Xiang's line, after all, he Li Xiong is the main branch, if Li Shou is reused, he will be the ancestor in the future, but his branch has become a sideline, whether it is actual interests or self-esteem, he can't accept it.

But he also knows the crisis of the Li family, just like a naked person, he swaggers through the market with thousands of gold, and it is difficult not to provoke the covetousness of others, and Li Shou is right, even if Yang Yan doesn't look down on his Li family's wealth, what about others Those wolf-like generals have made great achievements, if they really want to do something to him, can Yang Yan still behead his henchmen and generals is nothing more than a reprimand, once or twice, it's okay, three or four times, who will take care of you What's more, complaining to Yang Yan is tantamount to offending people to death, looking at the opportunity, accusing you of treason, and destroying your family Therefore, the Li family really needs someone to come out to protect the family, and there is no hope for the family, thinking about it, only Li Shou is suitable, it is a family, and Li Shou will not be too much if he takes power in the future.

Li Shou saw Li Xiong's expression change, and said: "Please rest assured, Brother Cong is still the head of the Li family for one day when he is alive, and after Brother Cong is in the future, my brother will also take care of many children and nephews, give food and clothing, and provide for studying. ” "Hey" Li Xiong sighed gloomily, waved his hand and said, "That's it, that's it, you have this heart, it's very comforting for your brother, let's go, go and see the king." ” Li Xiang said from the side: "Lord Lang, that Hui'er" Yes, Li Hui'er will be fourteen tomorrow and fifteen the year after tomorrow, and she can marry Yang Yan, and then she will be the father-in-law of King Ming, although she can't be compared with Ge Hong's kind of genuine father-in-law, but as long as Li Hui'er is favored, who dares to touch half a hair Even if Li Shou is reused, he doesn't have the courage to be his own home.

"Okay, call Hui'er" Li Xiong stood up.

Li Xiang said again: "Lord Lang, the master mother has been named Mrs., according to the ceremony, she will also see King Ming tomorrow, it is better to call the master mother together, go to congratulate King Ming, and save yourself from running away tomorrow." ” Li Xiong froze He was afraid that Queen Ren and Yang Yan would make a name for themselves, this was not only a man's shame, but also his life, let Queen Ren congratulate Yang Yan, isn't this a noose around his neck Anyway, the two haven't seen each other for a long time, what if they meet and hook the sky and the earth "No" Li Xiong immediately stopped.

"Ugh" Li Xiang and Li Shou looked at Li Xiong strangely.

Li Xiong also realized that he was too radical, and hurriedly explained: "The Ren family is a woman's family, how can he show his head casually, and it doesn't hurt to go or not." ” Li Xiang recalled the appearance of Li Xiong returning drunk that night and smashing the queen's door, probably understood, sighed secretly, and was about to give up, but Li Shou smiled and said: "Brother, how can the sister-in-law say that she is also Hui'er's mother, even Hui'er went to meet the king, how can the sister-in-law not go to the king of Ming to accompany him, sitting together and talking can also deepen the relationship, if you don't see the sister-in-law, is it rude?"

"You" Li Xiong's face turned red in an instant.

From these words, Li Xiong came up with Li Shou's meaning, and he clearly saw something, I am afraid that he was trying to get close to Yang Yan with Queen Ren, anyway, Queen Ren is Li Xiong's wife, not Li Shou's wife, he really hooked up with Yang Yan, it was Li Xiong who lost, and it was Li Xiong who was humiliated, not only has nothing to do with Li Shou, maybe Yang Yan can also love the house and the house, and promote him even more.

Li Shou waved his hand and said with a smile: "Brother Cong, why are you, aren't you just to meet King Ming, why is it that sister-in-law is unsightly, Brother Cong, don't lose your manners, the life and death of our whole family are in the hands of King Ming."

Li Xiong looked at it with wide eyes as if he had just met Li Shou, his face was full of disbelief, and his anger was almost pouring out.

"Wu Kao {Li Shou Biao Zi}" Li Xiang also felt that his son was too much, and his face sank.

"Huh" Li Shou smiled: "Brother Cong, please" "Hmph" Li Xiong was full of anger and walked away, after all, what Li Shou said was very reasonable, and at the same time, he took into account that if Queen Ren didn't go to see Yang Yan today, she would have to go tomorrow, because she had been here today, she couldn't accompany her tomorrow, and the lonely men and widows were together, who knew what would happen You must know that at that time, the bottom of the woman's skirt was empty, and Yang Yan really wanted to be alone with Queen Ren, so she had a bad heart, and the skirt was thrown away, which was extremely convenient, and it could be done in half a moment.

The sky gradually sank, Yang Yan was indeed rarely free, and Xun Guan, Jin Yuehua, Xi Xiang and Lian Xiang gathered in the tent to take a while, mainly waiting for the meal, taking advantage of his leisure, he asked Xun Guan: "Xun Gong's body is still strong, if he goes to Luoyang, can he withstand it?"

"How" Xun Guan looked over puzzled.

Yang Yan smiled slightly: "Xun Gong is upright, full of economy, and he doesn't waste talents in Jiankang, I want to ask Xun Gong to serve in Luoyang and become the Taifu." ” 。
