Chapter 549 Li Chengqian was demoted again (two in one)

Du Shaoqing sat down as he said, picked up the teacup and put it beside his mouth. Instead of drinking tea, he refused: "Your Majesty makes a fuss, who dares to speculate on the will of the holy people? Don't guess."

"I ordered you to guess!"

Then Du Shaoqing said: "The third brother Li Ke, the fourth brother Li Tai, the fifth brother Li You, and even the sixth brother Li Yan, are almost all suspicious. The person who poisoned the prince was still at large. It is difficult to find him."

Li Er laughed and scolded: "Do you praise your quick thinking? Or is my move too obvious? Will the other party not be fooled?"

I just said I won’t guess, you insisted on guessing, you really guessed that you asked again? This father-in-law is too difficult to serve.

Du Shaoqing had a lot of discussion and simply silenced his head and drank tea and stopped talking.

On the other hand, the queen and Princess Changle met Hou who was beaten in the East Palace and asked about the causes and consequences. Although it was also a difficult sutra, with the queen's mediation, the East Palace can temporarily settle down for the New Year.

But in fact, it seems to be a bit of a scratching sound. Just after the Chinese New Year, the East Palace started to make trouble again, and Li Er scolded Li Chengqian for not being like his father.

Then he directly ordered Li Chengqian and his family to drive out of the Eastern Palace and find a place to live in Chang'an City.

Li Chengqian wanted to plead for mercy, but Li Er didn't even see her, and the queen was useless to plead for mercy.

So they had to move according to the order, and the two women were at peace.

Hou did not say that Li Chengqian was favored by his concubines, and the Queen of Silla did not say that Li Chengqian would have a status in the future. He was kicked out of the Eastern Palace and did not even allocate a house. What does this mean? Isn’t it true that the prince Li Chengqian was deposed?

He was about to leave the streets, but Li Chengqian was very open-minded. After all, he was still the Minister of Justice and had a good grade. He should have his own house.

But he, the Minister of Justice, added another one. Because he originally lived in the Eastern Palace, there were no arrangements for these aspects, so it has just passed the past year, so it takes time to arrange them.

In desperation, Li Chengqian decided to spend money to buy a house in Chang'an, but he regretted that he was too little when he was used. He was driven out of the East Palace and was basically considered to be a waste of money and he didn't let any money be taken away. The money he had in his hands, let alone buying a house in Chang'an, he couldn't even think about it.

Hou did not want his son Li Xiang to live on the streets, so he suggested that the whole family stay at his old father Hou Junji for a while. Of course, she still didn't like the Silla princess. She even thought that the cause of this was caused by this Silla maid, and she was in trouble.

Okay, the Queen of Silla is not easy to mess with. She took out her own private money and said it was enough to buy a small house in Chang'an, so why bother to join others?

Seeing that the two women were about to squeeze again, Li Chengqian felt that he was too impatient. Fortunately, Du Shaoqing, who received the news, arrived in time and finally got the siege.

Facing the special character of Du Shaoqing, even the ex-Crown Princess and the ex-Silla Queen, did not dare to talk nonsense. Li Chengqian felt much more relaxed, so he spoke out that he wanted to stay in the Du family temporarily, even if he was temporarily staying in the clinic.

Du Shaoqing did not comment, but privately gave Li Chengqian some of the emperor's original intentions, and also gave him a suggestion, that is, to let him live in Changle House, not to be a servant, and just live an ordinary life for the whole family. One is to remember the bitterness and sweetness, and the other is to take the opportunity to get along with his two wives, and the third is to understand the people's sentiments.

Li Chengqian was overjoyed and immediately decided to set up a house in Changle House to move in, even if the Ministry of Justice made arrangements for it in the future.

"Relatives are relatives, but brothers have to settle the score clearly. When Changle House was first built, a house with fifty cents of money was built. In the past two years, the housing prices have risen very quickly and have doubled, so you can't owe it to a hundred cents of money.

Then you can go to the sales office to complete the procedures yourself.”

What???

"No, brother-in-law, you don't have to be so stingy, right? Besides, your family has a great career, is it that I am a hundred percent less than me? Are you taking advantage of the situation to rob me? I know that I don't have much money now.

Believe it or not, I will call my fifth sister here?" Li Chengqian simply made a fuss and prepared to eat Du Shaoqing, a big family member for free.

"No problem. I happened to talk to my two sisters-in-law, saying that you were 100% off on credit to get a house with me. I think they would definitely be willing to pay me your private money..."

"You are ruthless! Isn't it just a hundred coins? Okay, I'll give it to you!" Li Chengqian gritted his teeth.

Du Shaoqing smiled and patted the other person on the shoulder and said, "Money is small money, but you have to feel the lives of ordinary people in every aspect. Buying a house is just the first step.

And you can't use the private money treasury step by step, otherwise, even though you live by the common people, it's no different from living in the East Palace."

"Yeah, it makes sense."

"Will I lend you Xuanxuan to you for a few days?" Du Shaoqing asked.

Li Chengqian was surprised and said, "Hmm? What is this for?"

No, no, how can I let my child suffer with me? This little thing doesn’t hurt me. I was the shopkeeper in Luoxia Town for three months.”

But a few days later, Li Chengqian stopped saying that.

At the grand court meeting, Hou Junji looked at his son-in-law Li Chengqian's indifferent look and felt worried. With this inaction and unconfrontational nature, why would he mention the position of crown prince?

So he stood up and asked, "Your Majesty, the eldest prince moved out of the Eastern Palace, but he could not live in a stable place. Although he served as the Minister of Justice, he was the eldest son of the royal family after all, and he should be granted the title of the king and established the palace according to the etiquette.

Otherwise, your eldest son will be left on the street without name and no separation, and there will be no rumors when it is spread."

Hou Junji said this, which was a common thing for Li Chengqian to ask for foundation and avoid his daughter and grandchildren from suffering.

But he didn't know what the emperor had planned inside, and Li Er said, "If you are granted a king, you have to go to your fiefdom to serve as a minister of the Ministry of Justice, but he asked to stay in Chang'an and be a minister of justice. The two conflicted, and he shouldn't be granted a king."

This tone was obviously still angry with Li Chengqian.

Hou Jun gathered a moment of thought, but still refused to give up, and changed his words: "Your Majesty, the eldest prince has a different identity after all. Just like King Jiangxia served as the Minister of Justice, the king's position as a real position is no longer an exception."

Li Daozong didn't expect to shave himself, but for Li Chengqian's sake, he did not refute Hou Junji.

But he was not optimistic about Hou Junji's request. He was just a casual title, not a prince of Yizi, and had a different status. He was granted to Li Chengqian. It was not certain whether he wanted it or not.

At this moment, the uncle Changsun Wuji also stood up to help his nephew Li Chengqian ask for his order, and he should grant him a real-name title to show his dignity.

Many ministers agreed.

Li Er looked at Li Chengqian with a smile. The other party had seen Du Shaoqing and thought he should know his plans, so what would he choose at this time?

Li Chengqian had a look at his father, and then took the initiative to come forward and asked to report: "Father, I just want to be able to do things with peace of mind."

If you give the title of king, you will inevitably be treated differently during your actions, which is very inconvenient. My son asked himself that he had no merit and did not dare to compare with Uncle Wang of Jiangxia, so he asked his father to act according to the rules of the royal family."

"How can the eldest prince manages the southwest and participates in the battle to pacify the northeast?" Many people are unfair for Li Chengqian.

But Li Chengqian insisted on not accepting it.

Li Er deliberately showed displeasure and said to the ministers: "You have seen it too. Don't talk about this. If you don't look down on me, then forget it."

Then he scolded Li Chengqian: "Cultivate oneself, manage the family, govern the country and pacify the world. You should handle the family affairs first and then serve the country."

The dignified prince, who is delayed in love with his children all day long, is Chen He's moral integrity?"

A grand court meeting made everyone see the emperor's attitude towards the eldest prince Li Chengqian. Basically everyone saw that Li Chengqian became increasingly unpopular. The deposed prince had become a fact, and he could not move back to the Eastern Palace.

At the same time, his two wives became famous. The Hou family was jealous, the Silla maid and foxes were charming, etc., which were not good signs, so you must be cautious when marrying a wife, as it hinders the future.

That day, Li Chengqian came back from the court and saw Jin Deman alone at home, in a very embarrassing way in the kitchen.

"Why are you the only one? What about them, mother and son?"

Jin Deman said: "Sister Hou can't cook, and she doesn't want her children to suffer, so she takes her children back to her parents' home to visit relatives.

Husband, I told me that we are not without money, so it would be better to buy a small house and bring two maids. This life is a bit too difficult.

We don’t want to watch you go to the Ministry of Justice to handle the job every day, and you have to cook for us when you come back. These should be what we women should do.”

Lee Seung-qian suddenly laughed and looked at Jin Deman and praised: "Okay, it's only been a few days, and it's been a lot!

OK, you go and wash your face, but I'll cook.

Don’t mention the matter of buying a house and asking for maids. Let’s come to experience the lives of ordinary people. Go and see the neighbors, who has maids?”

"Why?"

Li Cheng said inexplicably: "What's the reason?"

Jinderman said: "Our family is an official, and the duties of ordinary people are different from those of ordinary people. Why do we need to feel the lives of ordinary people? Is it necessary to govern the country?

When I was the queen in charge of Silla, I never paid attention to these things."

Li Chengqian patiently explained: "The people are more important than the king and the country, and the hearts of the people are the heart of heaven. The first priority of governing the country is to protect the country and safeguard the people. I don't know the people's warmth and suffering, so how can I formulate reasonable policies for them?

Just like seeing a doctor, governing the country means prescribing a series of prescriptions for curing diseases..."

Jin Deman was like a little fan. For the first time, little stars appeared in her eyes when she looked at Li Chengqian. At this moment, she seemed to be impressed by her husband's talent and admired her: "No wonder the Tang Dynasty can be proud of the world. I seem to know why Silla has been developing for many years and is still a small border country."

"That's different. Silla is difficult to develop due to geographical restrictions. I will analyze and explain it to you later. This is all taught by my brother-in-law. I didn't understand these before." Li Chengqian comforted.

"No, I'm no longer a queen.

Now I want to learn how to cook with my husband. Every day when you go to the Ministry of Justice, we can’t wait for you to come back hungry at home, right? And Sister Hou and I want to do our duty as a wife.”

"Oh? It's only a few days before you and Xiang'er's mother won't fight?" Li Chengqian said in surprise.

Jin Deman said shyly: "I used to be a bad person, but now I have caused a big disaster. How can I not learn from the lesson? No matter how much I fight, none of us can possess our husbands alone.

Besides, I have been together these few days and found that my sister and I can chat very well.”

Li Chengqian almost laughed out loud. As expected, his brother-in-law had a good idea. He left all the servants and maids and let these two women who had been fighting all day together. When he was bored, he didn't believe them and didn't speak. He would get a result after he slowly got it done.

Either they were destroyed by war or the two compromised and made peace with each other. Unexpectedly, it would have a miraculous effect.

On the other hand, Hou took Li Xiang back to his parents' home and turned to his father, Hou Junji, the Minister of War.

When Hou Junji heard his daughter say that the family is suffering from suffering in Changle House, he was so angry that he scolded Li Chengqian, the son-in-law, for being stupid. How could he come up with such a trick? If you are willing to suffer, you will go by yourself, why should you take your wife and children? It seems like you are a man who can't afford to raise a family?

Of course, life problems are not the reason why Hou asked for help, but the main problem is the status.

"Father, now we have been driven out of the Eastern Palace. My husband is unnamed and has no distinction. Will he have no connection with the position of crown prince in the future?" Hou said worriedly.

Hou Junji was also worried, pointing at his daughter and scolding: "Isn't it because of you?"

Originally, Chengqian made great contributions to his return from the Northeast Victory this time. He deliberately promoted him to restore the crown prince for his father. Unexpectedly, you were driven out of the Eastern Palace in just a few days?

Isn’t this a person who was swept out by His Majesty? It’s clearly a place for others.

I really don’t know what’s going on with you? What’s going on? Can’t you tolerate a Silla maid? Last time I told you not to cause trouble.

Now, it’s good. When it is reported, people point at my backbone and scold me, saying that my daughter of the Hou family is jealous, and saying that I have no way to teach my daughter?

Humph, that is, Cheng Qian is generous. If it were someone else, you might send it back if you leave!"

Hou's feet were softened by Hou Junji's lesson and his intestines were regretful. If he had known this was so serious, even if his husband had injected him into the cold palace, he would not have any complaints!

"Father, my daughter knows that she is wrong. She will definitely take good care of her husband and children in the future and will not cause trouble. Can you help her husband? You can't earn the position of prince, but you can't just be without a name or a distinction. What should Xiang'er do in the future?"

After thinking about it for a while, Hou Junji agreed and would go to His Majesty to mediate the matter again. He would first win a title of prince. As for the position of crown prince, please slowly plan it.

Mrs. Hou did not stay at her parents' home for too long. After the talks, she took the child back, for fear of making her husband angry again.

Just when she came back, an old man came to visit her.

"Dare you ask if Mr. Li is here?

Lao Xie’s surname is Wang, and he is the manager of the 18th Mile of Changlefang.”
