Views:

Although Li Ye and Shangguan Qingcheng rode horses to the son-in-law's mansion, they had to run wildly in Chang'an City. As the Shaoyin of Chang'an Mansion, Li Ye was in charge of the security of Chang'an City. The speed of Qingcheng with Shangguan was not fast. Before they arrived at the son-in-law's mansion, Li Kerang had already arrived.

The banquet in the hall has already begun. Li Kerang was full of anger on the way here, but facing the dignitaries in the hall, of course he didn't want others to know that he himself was bullied in Chang'an City, so he walked as low-key as possible. Li Ke is beside him.

"Brother!"

"You can't say it?" Li Keyong glanced at Li Kerang who was sitting next to him. He was very similar to Li Kerang in appearance, and he also had rough and hard-edged facial features, but he was more sharp than Li Kerang. After glancing at Li Kerang, Li Keyong frowned, "Are you injured?"

Wu Hongshan in the chief seat saw Li Kerang, and quickly ordered the servants to add a food table, which was placed beside Li Keyong. Li Kerang just hugged Wu Hongshan, and did not go to the courteously.

Hearing Li Keyong's question, he blushed with shame, gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, just now I bumped into a man on the street, and he called me Zhenwu for not knowing the rules, and asked me to kneel down for him. Of course I can't be more angry..."

"So you were beaten down?"

"Brother! I drank too much alcohol today, otherwise that guy... Brother, this guy is really rampant. Seeing that I am not from the Central Plains, he insulted me with words. It is really deceiving. Let's fight In the north, when did we ever suffer from such anger? Our Zhenwu Army defended the country, how hard it was. Two years ago, we also participated in the suppression of the Pang Xun Rebellion, and made so many contributions. Now that we are in Chang'an, we are humiliated like this, big brother You can swallow this breath?" Li Kerang's resentment was hard to appease.

Li Ke took a sip of his wine, but he still hadn't spoken. An official who had been talking to him just now heard their conversation, and immediately slapped the food table, saying with the same enemy: "Who is going to attack the son? Li Lian envoy and General Li They are all important officials of the imperial court, and they have contributed to the country. Mr. Li is also a famous general, how can he be so neglected! Mr. Li, what is the name of that person, and what he looks like, just tell me, someone will definitely stand up for you!"

The official who spoke was Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War. These days, Li Keyong and Li Keyong have gotten quite close, and they are already very familiar with each other.

"I never asked for his name, but I remember that person's appearance clearly!" Li Kerang immediately told the left servant of the Ministry of War about Li Ye's appearance in detail.

Li Ye's appearance did not have any obvious features, at least he had no hemorrhoids or scars. After Li Kerang described it, the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War did not think of Li Ye.

The left servant of the Ministry of War nodded, patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, my lord, in Chang'an City, XX still has some face. Within three days, XX will definitely catch this person for you, and give it to you to deal with!"

Li Kerang was overjoyed when he heard the words, raised his glass and said, "Thank you!"

Li Keyong didn't say anything more about this matter, and he knew that he didn't need to say anything more. Zhenwu is very powerful, and there are many officials who want to make friends with them. He knows that someone must help him with this matter.

Right now, Li Keyong's thoughts are not here. He raised his glass to Wu Hongshan, persuaded him to drink a glass of wine, and then asked: "I have heard that Princess Li is extremely talented, and he is the most gifted in cultivation among the children of the clan. I wonder if I'm lucky enough to see you today?"

His food table was next to Wu Hongshan, so the two of them didn't need to speak loudly.

Wu Hongshan set up this banquet today, firstly to let Li Keyong get acquainted with his cronies and lead him into his circle, and secondly to let him and Wu You meet each other. Once the two of them are pleasing to the eye, they will thoroughly discuss the matter. After settling down, Wu You wouldn't come out at all, embarrassing Wu Hongshan.

"Wait, general." Wu Hongshan smiled, turned to call a steward who was waiting, and said in a deep voice: "The princess has been dressing for a long time, you go and remind her to come out quickly!"

After taking orders, the steward left in a hurry.

The steward didn't come back again, and it was another steward who came to return Wu Hongshan: "The princess won't come out... Steward He was seriously injured, and he was taken down for treatment..."

Wu Hongshan gasped, almost throwing his glass in anger.

Seeing Wu Hongshan's appearance, Li Keyong lowered his eyes even more. He had been in Chang'an for so long, but he had never seen Wu You, as if the promised marriage between Wu Hongshan and Wei Baoheng was a scam.

"Why doesn't she come out? Doesn't she know that the male college should be married and the female college should be married? It seems that I am too used to her! Go and tell her that if she doesn't come out today, she won't be able to get out of her place in the future." A different courtyard!" Wu Hongshan said harshly to the steward in a low voice.

The steward looked distressed, and Ai Ai said: "The princess just said that if the lord persecutes her again, she will abolish her own cultivation... Do what she says!"

Wu Hongshan was startled, and his face suddenly collapsed. After a while, he sighed, waved his hand, and told the steward to step down.

He has always doted on Wu You. Although Wu You married Li Keyong, it was a well-matched marriage, but he felt a little guilty towards Wu You in his heart, and Wu You was stubborn. Persecuted everywhere.

"General Li... my daughter suddenly feels unwell today, I'm afraid I won't be able to come out to see each other... But according to the matchmaker's words and the orders of my parents, the marriage between Mr. Li and my daughter will not be delayed." Wu Hongshan Assure Li Keyong.

Li Keyong's face darkened, and he snorted coldly in front of him, ignoring Wu Hongshan, as if he wanted to leave immediately.

And at this moment, Li Ye arrived.

Seeing Li Ye appearing at the door, Wu Hongshan's complexion changed, he was puzzled and surprised, before he could speak, Li Kerang took the lead, angered in his heart, gritted his teeth and said to the left servant of the military department beside him: "It's him! It's this guy, Domineering on the street today, humiliating me in public, saying that I am Zhenwu rebellious!"

As a member of the imperial court, the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War certainly knew Li Ye, and he would meet Li Ye in the early court. When he heard Li Kerang's words, he was immediately stunned: "Young Master, today..."

"That's right, it's him! Minister, didn't you say you want to help someone deal with him? Now you can see clearly, remember this person's face, and catch him after he goes down!" Li Kerang was furious.

Zuo Shilang opened his mouth, wanted to speak but stopped for a while, finally shook his head helplessly, and said falteringly: "Mr. Li... I'm afraid I can't intervene in this matter..."

"What did you say? You won't help me anymore?" Li Kerang was taken aback.

Zuo Shilang sighed: "It's not that someone doesn't want to help, but because they are unable to do what they can..."

"You just vowed to help, and you changed your face just now. Do you know what faith is?" Li Kerang was furious.

Zuo Shilang's eyes were strange: "Mr. Li, do you know who this person is?"

"Even if he is the king of heaven..." Li Kerang just wanted to yell, but realized that this place is not under the jurisdiction of Zhenwu, so he stopped immediately, "Who is he?"

"He is His Royal Highness King An!"

"King An?"

"If it's someone else, XX will naturally fulfill his promise, but the prince of the dynasty, a little servant like XX, how dare he offend? Besides, he is still the Shaoyin of the Chang'an Mansion, who holds real power and is in charge of the security of Chang'an City. If XX sends someone to arrest him , isn’t that sending your own people to prison?”

When Li Kerang heard this, he was quite shocked: "This...how is this possible?! A random person I met on the street turned out to be a prince? Or such a young prince, Shao Yin who holds real power? !"

The Minister of the Ministry of War sighed, and signaled with his eyes: "Who can blame this, it's your own bad luck!"
