Du Shaoqing was discussing the moving matter with his mother, and Zhang Chuchen took Xiao Xuanxuan to Lizheng Hall to visit the queen.

The little princess of the Lizheng Hall has long been looking forward to the arrival of her friends. The two children are about the same age and are very compatible. They make an appointment to play together almost every day.

Zhang Chuchen asked about lunch with a smile, and the queen couldn't help but nodded, "If I had known that Lizhi was the craft, I would never have agreed to give her this meal, so Du Shaoqing could eat the meal she cooked for five years in Luoxia Town for endlessly. Haha, it would be sincere enough."

"So, your mother-in-law has passed the level?" Zhang Chuchen said in surprise.

The queen quickly changed her words, "That's impossible. It is said that he failed three times. Last time His Majesty sent someone to test him, his knowledge was not at all. If you want to gain a foothold in this court, haha, I'm afraid it's not possible.

You can't let Your Majesty recruit him as an imperial physician, and then marry the princess to be an imperial physician."

Zhang Chuchen sneered: "Your mother-in-law is so particular. This beauty is not my daughter. If it is my daughter, as long as she likes it, I will definitely support it.

Du Shaoqing is really useless in your pickyness everywhere. It’s already your son-in-law. If you want face, then just give him a high position. Could it be that if he is not capable of his whole life, can you still remarry your daughter or wait for the other person for the rest of your life?

You should know that your granddaughter is so old, the more you hide it, the harder it is to deal with it."

Hearing this, the queen smiled bitterly, this old sister was outspoken. Although this is true, how could the royal affairs be so simple? The Tian family is selfless!

In the Palace of Political Consultation Hall, Emperor Li Er was listening to Duke Lai's letter from Duke Lai.

"My dear, I'm not wrong. You want to hand over the title and give it to Du Shaoqing? This is your truth?" Li Er looked at Du Gou below in surprise. Du Gou actually wrote a letter to ask the title to his brother.

Du Gou stood with his hands down below, nodded and said, "Yes, I am from the heart. Since my brother Du Shaoqing is the eldest heir, he will be the first to inherit the title of father. He has not found it back then. Now that Du Gou is the second son, it will be unreasonable to occupy it again."

Li Er couldn't help but look at the man with such words, but asked: "You have no selfish thoughts on this?"

This... Du Gou was asked, and thought for a moment, and he answered truthfully: "If you want to talk about selfishness, there are indeed some things, that is, my brother has been suffering in the countryside for more than 20 years. My second brother Du He and I have been in a wealthy place since childhood. The brother of a mother and a compatriot lives in heaven and earth, so we can't bear to continue suffering, and want to help him find wealth.

I was given the emperor's kindness and was appointed as the governor of Cizhou. My second brother Du He was also the qualifying son-in-law. Therefore, this Duke of Lai is the icing on the cake. It is better to give my brother a helping hand to him. Besides, this is his."

Hearing this, Li Er laughed, "Keming has a good son, so he can rest in peace."

"So, your Majesty is right?" Du Gou asked in surprise.

Who knew that Li Er waved his hand and said, "No, this is not only your family matter, but also my official position for the title of the Tang Dynasty. You have taken over for five or six years, so it is not easy to change it. Moreover, Du Shaoqing's origin has not yet been announced to the world, and he has not recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors, so he has changed his title to him, which is not in line with etiquette and law nor with the laws.

He has made great contributions to healing the queen and the princess, and he has contributed military rations and medicine formulas before. I originally wanted to use this merit to grant him a viscount."

Du Gou said anxiously: "Your Majesty, I object. It is legitimate to inherit the Duke of the Kingdom. If it is replaced by a viscount, it would be a great injustice."

"Damn it!" Li Er scolded sternly.

Du Gou wanted to say something again, but was interrupted by Li Er's stern words: "The original intention of awarding titles in the court is to reward people who have made meritorious contributions. Do you think it is your family heirloom that can be changed back and forth?"

If a person without virtue or talent occupies a high position, it will be a waste of national titles and an unfairness to other meritorious people. What consequences will a person without virtue cause to the people? You have been an official for several years and you will not understand this truth.

Du Shaoqing originally had high hopes, but he lacked enough knowledge. Not to mention that he failed the exam three times, I wanted to give him the opportunity to study in the Imperial College, but he failed to pass a simple entrance examination. If such a person is awarded the title of Duke of the Kingdom, wouldn’t it be a joke for all civil and military officials?”

What???Du Gou didn't expect that his brother would have such a resume.

After pondering for a while, Li Er said, "But you don't have to worry about Du Shaoqing's problem. Given his super high medical talent, I will call him to be the imperial physician of the Imperial Hospital. If he can be the head of the hospital in the future, he will not worry about wealth.

As for the change of the Duke of the Kingdom, it will stop here. It will be of no benefit to you and the court if it is spread."

When Du Gou heard the emperor's criticism, he could only nod and was about to bow and leave, but was stopped by Li Er.

"You are here just in time. There is progress in the case of your mother being poisoned. I am about to talk to you. Let's sit here."

Li Er left the table where the memorial was reviewing, and led Du Gou to the tea-drinking hall next to the Political Affairs Hall. He sat opposite him on the ground. The eunuch gave him tea and left. There were only two kings and ministers here.

"The poisoned maid, ours, chased her hometown and found nothing. The search for a person in the world is like looking for a needle in a sea of ​​water. It has only been ten days, and there is no result for the time being.

But through the black market selling medicine, we have a clue, you need to be mentally prepared." Emperor Li Er said.

Du Gou was puzzled. What mental preparation is needed? Isn’t it enough to find the murderer and just find it out and deal with it according to the law?

He smiled bitterly, shook his head, took out a secret memorial and handed it over, Li Er sighed, "Liu Aiqing from Dali Temple came to report that it was Xiaohui, the personal maid of your wife Liu, who secretly bought the incense of the ecstasy."

What? It turns out that it was this bitch. I knew it was her good thing. I couldn't forgive her! After taking the memorial and reading it quickly, Du Gou got up angrily, but was stopped by Li Er.

"What are you anxious about? Listen to me after I finish my words." Li Er persuaded Du Gou like an elder at this time.

The angry Du Gou could not hear it, but Li Er's words once again brought the incident into the mystery, "Is it difficult for your wife to draw a conclusion for the time being? Liu Aiqing of Dali Temple inferred that there might be someone else."

"How could it be? Xiaohui is the bitch's personal maid. It's impossible for someone else to listen to her alone." Du Gou didn't believe it.

"Think about it, who is your wife? A woman who doesn't go out all day long can know the ecstasy of the ecstasy? Can she know the black market? Is this possible?"

Yes, is this possible? Du Gou is also reflecting.

"You go back and check this Xiaohui. Considering that the family scandal should not be made public, the people from Dali Temple will no longer enter your house for the next step of investigation. If it is your wife, you should deal with it carefully and not destroy your reputation because of one thing.

If someone else needs to come forward, you can come and find me."

Du Gou walked home with hatred on his face. Li Er ordered the eunuch behind him, "Keep paying close attention to the situation in Duke Lai's Mansion, I must know who the real culprit is as soon as possible."
