Chapter 291: The First Confrontation

"Yeah! Yes, that's it!"

The candlelight was shrouded in the red gauze lamp, so the house seemed to be filled with intoxicating and hazy red.

A pair of delicate jade hands pressed on Li Jinglong's forehead and rubbed it gently. Li Jinglong, who was bathing in the wooden basin, closed his eyes and made a comfortable snoring sound from his mouth.

The owner of Jade Hand was not old, so she sat next to the bathtub. Her round and plump nails looked particularly shiny under the light. But she didn't dare to look up because she could see the bathtub when she looked up...

"Come here, I'll put my hands on you!" Li Jinglong said with a smile.

The blush on the maid's face instantly floated to her ears, then she moved the stool and sat on the side of Li Jinglong, pulled up his hand and gently kneaded it.

"Rubb your arms!" Li Jinglong opened his eyes and smiled, letting his hands go naturally.

Then, he closed his eyes again and hummed softly, "A pretty enemy, I want to kill me today. Seeing that you have lost your smile, you can't sleep with your bed. You can stand in front of me...

....”

Seeing that he was happy, the maid was brave, "Why is the master so happy today?"

"Hey! You don't understand if you say it!" Li Jinglong felt happy. Just when he was in the lantern, He Guangyi came to his mansion to pass the imperial edict, but the Japanese envoy, the Minister of the Lifan Academy, received him, and he had another sentence.

The gift should be collected!

When I thought of the empty warehouses in my house, I could fill them up with legitimate meaning, I couldn't help but be overjoyed.

But the next second, he suddenly couldn't laugh again.

"The money you know above is even harder to get! Maybe one day you have to be filial to, and maybe you have to be more filial than you receive." Li Jinglong said in his heart, "It's the obvious passing God of Wealth and the Boy of Spreading Wealth!"

After thinking about this, he immediately felt depressed again, and he had no intention of humming a song.

"Master!" Suddenly, someone called out loud outside the house.

"What's wrong?" Li Jinglong heard that it was the voice of the butler of the second sect and said unhappily, "Didn't you see that you're busy?"

"Master, Duke Wei is here, waiting to see you in the front yard. I'm afraid there is something urgent to do!"

"He?" Li Jinglong was stunned and said to himself, "Is the sun coming out from the west today?"

Then he stood up amid the sound of water...

Xu Huizu was wearing casual clothes, with a little bit of entanglement on his face and was embarrassed.

Although they are both top nobles and wealthy families in the Ming Dynasty, Li Jinglong's family did not come much, let alone when they came to the middle of the night.

"Hey, in life, who can really not ask for help?" Xu Huizu sighed in his heart.

At this moment, footsteps came from outside, and Li Jinglong's hearty laughter, "Duke of Wei is here, you are such a rare guest!"

Xu Huizu quickly stood up, clasped his fists and said, "I took the liberty to come to the door and disturb you!"

"Hey, what's this? I can't even invite you on weekdays!" Li Jinglong smiled, "Please, let's talk to the tea room behind!"

Then turn slightly and make a way out.

Then the two walked side by side, and the servant was carrying lanterns in front of him, and the two were elongated figures on the ground.

"This Xu Huizu has not been with me for 800 years. What's the problem of coming suddenly today!" Li Jinglong smiled with a gentle breeze and drizzle on his face, but he was thinking in his heart, "Is it possible that he just stumbling on him a few days ago,

Just come to ask for favors? No, no, if that happens, Xu Huizu would not be Xu Huizu!"

The two of them entered the tea room one by one, and there was a maid cooking tea with her hands on her hands.

What I cooked was not ordinary tea, but an exquisite clay pot, sitting on a small mud stove. Add red dates, dried longans, wolfberry and rock sugar to the boiling water. On the table next to it, there were two plates of exquisite desserts.

.

"I can't sleep when I drink tea at night, so I asked someone to prepare this pot of tea from the northwest!" Li Jinglong smiled, "This is the way my father brought back when he was conquering the northwest. When he was alive, he always said,

When the army was fighting, drinking a pot of tea and eating two bites of dry steamed buns was a meal!”

Xu Huizu smiled awkwardly, following his words, "It's not easy for the rest of his life!" He said, sighing, "Without them, we wouldn't have the good days we are today!"

"You said this to my heart!" Li Jinglong smiled, "We are actually lying on the credit book of the older generation!" As he said, with a little sigh, "Add to be long old."

Only when I love you can I have the honor I am now!"

The tea was ready, and the maid was divided into two small cups, brought it to them in turn, and then bowed and left.

Seeing Xu Huizu absent-minded, Li Jinglong no longer took turns, "It's so late, where are you here?"

"To be honest, there is something I want to ask Duke Cao for help!" Xu Huizu thought for a moment, and had no intention of drinking tea, and said with difficulty.

"What else can you help me or not? Although our two families didn't have much contact before, Huaixi's honors and honors are all prosperous, and we have both grown up together!" Li Jinglong smiled, "They are all the wives in the first place, and they are all the first wife."

My son is now the old minister of the East Palace!" As he said, he smiled and said, "Brother Xu, let me say something heart-to-heart, who will follow us?"

Xu Huizu suddenly felt a little bitter in his heart, so he could only pick up the cup and take a sip.

"If you have something to do, just say it!" Li Jinglong continued, "I will also take care of my breasts. As long as I can help, I will have no choice!"

"It's our second boy's business!" Xu Huizu said.

Li Jinglong was stunned at first, and then immediately understood.

The second boy Xu Huizu mentioned is Xu Maoxian, the second-ranked third generation of the Xu family. Xu Maoxian's father is Xu Da's second son, Xu Tianfu, who has died of illness.

"So it's my nephew's business!" Li Jinglong smiled, "But what errands do you want to make up for..."

As he said that, he couldn't continue. Xu Huizu's nephew wanted to make up for his job, was it his turn to worry about Li Jinglong? Besides, the male member of the Xu family would carry hereditary titles as long as he landed on the ground, so he would not have to worry about it.

Officially done!

"That child is a happy person and has no responsibility. Just be a rich and idle person!" Xu Huizu sighed and looked at Li Jinglong, "It was his marriage to Princess Lanyang, the King of Zhou family!"

In an instant, Li Jinglong understood.

The Xu family and the royal family are in-laws for generations. They not only let their son marry the Xu family's daughter, but also point their granddaughters to the Xu family's grandson.

The second daughter of King Zhu Shi of Zhou was the one who was married to Xu Maoxian. But the King of Zhou is still in Fengyang, so the marriage between these two little ones has been delayed again and again.

Moreover, the third girl of the Xu family is about to marry King An and become King An's official concubine. This matter can't be delayed any longer.

"He really has no place to ask for this matter, because no one can tell the emperor about this matter!" Li Jinglong said in his heart, "The King of Zhou is in trouble. The King of Zhou will definitely not be able to fall behind in the future. Is the King of Zhou still going to marry?

No one can guess what the Emperor thinks!”

"I really can't do anything!" Xu Huizu continued, "My waiter and the princess have an engagement, so I have to ask clearly no matter how you do it, otherwise I will feel uneasy. When it comes to the matters involving children for the rest of their lives, I have to do it with shame.

Please!"

"I am really an upright person!" Li Jinglong thought to himself, "If it were me, I would like to drag the emperor without mentioning it. Will the King of Zhou's daughter come in and will she not be afraid of affecting her future?"

"You know I am a stupid person, and... In the future, King An will get married, and the emperor will order you to do it!" Xu Huizu looked at Li Jinglong's face and felt embarrassed, "That's why he came uninvited!"

"Why don't you invite your nephew?" Li Jinglong didn't say anything, but he was not idle in his heart.

"Actually, what I thought about at the beginning was His Highness, Prince Yan!" Xu Huizu said again, "But he and the King of Zhou are uncles and nephews, and I am also afraid of affecting my nephew..."

"You are not afraid of affecting me! Isn't it appropriate for me to talk too much about this?" Li Jinglong held his cheek and complained in his heart.

Seeing that his face was gloomy and gloomy, Xu Huizu could no longer sit still and stood up awkwardly, "I was absurd and took it as if I didn't say it!" As he said that, he bowed, "Goodbye!"

"Don't!" Li Jinglong pulled the other party and sat down again, and smiled, "Brother Xu, you are scolding me. Your nephew is my nephew, it's all our own business. As the eldest nephew grows older, I'm getting older.

Now, if the marriage is not settled, maybe it will be the year of the monkey and horse again. You are anxious, I understand!"

As he said that, biting his back teeth and pondering silently.

This matter must not be told to the emperor with great fanfare...

Well, just be quiet?

Li Jinglong had a conspiracy in his heart and said with a smile, "I heard that there is a good nursery in the mansion, and now it is the time to bloom!"

Xu Huizu was a little unable to keep up with his ideas, "That's just the average, I don't like those things!"

"Brother Xu, you don't have to ask me for this matter!" Li Jinglong smiled and said, "Tomorrow, you will look for the emperor and ask the emperor to admire the flowers in your mansion, and then quietly mention this matter?"

Suddenly, Xu Huizu understood.

Although Duan Fang is not a stupid person, he just doesn't have so many tricks. At this moment, Li Jinglong suddenly realized something.

It's much easier to talk about this in private.

"Thank you!" Xu Huizu bowed and smiled.

"It's not worth mentioning!" Li Jinglong waved his hand and said, "Oh, by the way, I heard that the fourth lady in the house has not been engaged yet?"
