"Have you met Albus's wife?" Li Ye said slowly.
Dugu Xinyue was stunned. Absi had two wives, the eldest A-ling and the little A-ling. The eldest A-ling died early and she was not familiar with it, but she was indeed familiar with the little A-ling and would quarrel with her every time they met.
They argued about the merits of Zoroastrianism and Taoism, but despite the quarrels, their relationship was not bad.
"You're talking about little Aling"
"It should be her! Jin Shan Ling."
Dugu Xinyue felt a headache, "She is Absi's wife and a princess. How do you know her?"
Li Ye's eyes were full of memories, "Abusi died in my hands. I killed more than 300 people in Jinshan Fort. Do you know what it feels like to kill more than 300 people? It's like going to hell.
It felt like there was only killing in my heart at that moment. The cruel murderous intention swelled in my heart and overflowed into every part of my body. When I saw a woman, I wanted to rape and vent it. No matter who it was, even if it was a civilian girl kidnapped by Absi's men,
But in the end I met Jin Shanling, but I didn’t expect that it would be her first time.”
Dugu Xinyue was dumbfounded when she heard it. How far away, how ridiculous, but yet true.
Li Ye sighed and said: "Later, the murderous intention in my heart slowly subsided and I regained my sanity. I felt very guilty, so I gave her all of Absi's wealth. Then I left Jinshan Castle, thinking that I would never see this woman again.
, Unexpectedly, two years later, I saw her again in Suiye, and we broke up again two days later. When I saw her again, she was already the Zuo Yin Saint of Daguangming Temple in Samarkand. I only saw her four times in total.
We haven't been together for more than five days, and I don't know what to say except that everything is fate."
Dugu Xinyue hugged her husband tightly and said: "If it is like she said, according to the rules of the grassland, she is your woman. If she comes back one day, I will accept her as a sister and continue to quarrel with her."
Li Ye stroked his beloved wife's hair, his heart filled with bitterness, what if?
Early the next morning, Li Ye went out. Dugu Xinyue held the child in her arms and was still thinking about A Ling. In fact, she didn't care. She knew very well that with conditions like her husband's, she didn't know how many women would break up and fight.
Grab, as long as he is willing, there will be a long list of women behind him.
In fact, her husband was already very good and she was very satisfied with it. She was thinking in her heart that it would be best if she could have another son.
Li Ye came to the court today to meet with Gao Lishi. The emperor basically took charge of the affairs of the court, and Gao Lishi exercised the power of review and approval on behalf of the emperor to ensure that the court could run smoothly.
In the official room, Li Ye saluted respectfully, "See Gao Weng!"
Gao Lishi smiled and said: "Jiedushi has worked hard all the way. I reported your two previous reports to Tubo to the emperor. He was full of praise for your attack on Tubo's expansion in the west. The main reason for recruiting you back this time is
Let you have a good rest. As a newlywed, I will let you go out to fight for the country. The emperor is also very sorry, so take a good rest for a while!"
"This time when I came back, I didn't bring back a gift for the emperor."
Gao Lishi smiled and waved his hand, "You underestimate the emperor too much. He is the emperor. The emperor's heart is about his family, country and the world. He will not only consider himself, but also the court. This time you bring back millions of dollars to the court."
Mian Mian, I told him yesterday and he was very satisfied. The fact that you can think about the imperial court means that you are beginning to mature. In a few days, the emperor will reward you for taking back Shazhou and Big and Little Bolu."
"Gao Weng, will I continue to return to Anxi to serve?"
"This. We haven't decided yet. We'll wait until you report on your work. Since you have contributed to the country, you should only move up, not down."
Li Ye keenly noticed that when Gao Lishi said this, he was no longer too confident, and he used the word "should", indicating that he was not sure either.
"Gao Weng, is someone dissatisfied with me?"
Gao Lishi smiled and said: "As beautiful as a tree is in the forest, the wind will destroy it. There are many people who are dissatisfied with you, but why do you care? The emperor has already defined you. You are the pillar of the Tang royal family.
You should focus on the world, not the intrigues in the court, do you understand?"
"Thank you Gao Weng for clarifying my doubts!"
"Go! Spend some time with your child."
Li Ye handed the work report to Gao Lishi, bowed and left.
Gao Lishi watched Li Ye go away, his eyes filled with deep worry. The emperor had already made murderous intentions. Can he escape this disaster?
In the afternoon, Li Ye took his wife and daughter to Dugu Mansion in a carriage. His daughter Xingguan rarely went out. She sat in her father's arms and stared curiously at everything outside the window.
The weather was a bit cold, so she was dressed thickly and warmly, like a little bear.
Li Ye lowered his head from time to time and sniffed the frankincense on his daughter's head, feeling full of love and affection in his heart.
The carriage slowly stopped in front of the Dugu Mansion. Wang and several young ladies who were waiting in front of the mansion came to greet them. Dugu Lie and Dugu Ming also walked down the steps.
Li Ye handed the child to Dugu Xinyue. He came out first and helped the couple out of the carriage. Several women immediately surrounded Xinyue and the child.
Li Ye stepped forward and saluted Dugu Lie, "See my father-in-law!"
He bowed to Dugu Ming again and said, "Greetings to my second uncle!"
"Just come back!"
Dugu Lie laughed, clapped his hands and said loudly: "It's cold outside, let's go inside!"
A group of women took Dugu Xinyue and their children to the back house to visit their grandmother, while Li Ye followed Dugu Lie and Dugu Ming to the back hall.
The three of them sat down, and the maid brought them hot tea. Dugu Lie smiled and said, "The wise son-in-law didn't go to the court today?"
Li Ye smiled and said: "I went to Gao Lishi early in the morning and submitted my work report."
Dugu Lie nodded and said, "What did Gao Lishi say?"
"He just asked me to have a good rest and said that the emperor would give me some recognition. Then I asked him if I would continue to return to Anxi. He said that it should not be a big problem, but I felt that he did not have the confidence to say this."
Dugu Ming next to him asked: "Then what are you going to do? Have you considered it?"
Li Ye pondered for a moment and said: "I am considering resigning as the Jiedushi of Anxi directly!"
Dugu Ming gave a thumbs up and praised: "What a great move to retreat in order to advance, not bad!"
"Is there a lot of bad news about me from the court recently?"
Dugu Lie nodded lightly, "There are two things related to you that maybe even your father doesn't know about. One of the news is that Prince Qing Li Cong, together with several princes, strongly requested the emperor to remove you from your post as the governor of Anxi.
Their reason is that Dugu Jun is appointed as the governor of Beiting. The Dugu family has a marriage relationship with you and cannot occupy Anxi and Beiting at the same time. It is easy to have the consequences of separatism. Of course, they do not dare to provoke the Dugu family, so they target you.
.
Then the second thing is related to the promotion of Anlu Mountain to King Yan. This broke the court practice. People with different surnames are not allowed to be princes, but county princes can. People with different surnames can be granted the title of prince. It started with Emperor Zhongzong, but people with different surnames are granted the title of prince. This is definitely a thing.
It was a big event that the emperor was fatuous, but the clan was not fatuous. The imperial family members all opposed it. Li Yuan, the king of Le'an County, was the eldest son of King Xue Li Ye. He wrote to the emperor and asked him to reinstate King Xue. The reason was very simple. Since the emperor could break the system and make a prince with a different surname.
, then they can break the system and become princes."
"But what does Prince An Lushan have to do with me?"
Dugu Lie waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, just listen to me!"
Li Ye quickly apologized: "Father-in-law, please continue talking!"
Dugu Lie continued: "The emperor replied to the clan members and said that to be crowned a prince, one must have contributed to the country and open up frontiers for the Tang Dynasty in order to be qualified to be crowned a prince. As a result, these clans discussed and pushed you out, saying that they had to open up borders and expand territory for the Tang Dynasty.
, you have made more contributions than An Lushan, and you are still a royal family, why can't you be crowned a prince?
The emperor said that you are still young and if you have enough qualifications in the future, he will consider making you a prince."
Li Ye frowned and said, "I don't quite understand why the title of Prince An Lushan aroused such public outrage. Does the title of Prince have any special meaning?"
