Chapter 0350 The stubborn Dou family

It was already evening when Yang Miaoyan packed her things.

Since he would stay in the palace for a long time this time and could not leave the palace until the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, Yang Miaoyan brought a lot of things with him.

I brought six hand-warming stoves alone.

This is what Yang Miaoyan and Li Yuanji use on daily basis, and there are countless others. "Alang, everything is ready."

After Yang Miaoyan watched all the things loaded into the car, she appeared in front of Li Yuanji with a smile and a happy expression.

It seems that she prefers life in the palace.

Or maybe she prefers to live her daily life with those in the palace who can communicate with her on an equal footing.

Li Yuanji can understand this.

After all, in this era of very strict classes, when a person's status reaches a level that is difficult for ordinary people to reach, the people around you will not be able to communicate with you on an equal footing.

They may be submissive in front of you because they are afraid of your identity; they may be groveling in front of you because they want something from you; or they may be cowardly in front of you because they want to get some benefits from you.

All in all, if you see too many fake people, you will naturally want to see real people.

The only person in the family who can communicate with Yang Miaoyan on an equal footing is Li Yuanji himself.

But Li Yuanji also had a lot of things to do, and it was impossible to stay with Yang Miaoyan all the time. Therefore, Yang Miaoyan could only meet other real people when he entered the palace during holidays.

After all, Yang Miaoyan is just a little girl who has just turned seventeen. It is already very difficult to manage everything in the house. You expect her to be like those women in their seventies and eighties, who have no pursuit of anything.

It is impossible for a person without curiosity and his mind to be like a flat lake.

This is what Yang Miaoyan wants to bring into the palace. Isn’t it a bit too much?

Eighteen carts were packed to the brim, and there were many hangings on the maids and attendants. "Are you planning to move back to the palace?" Li Yuanji looked at a guard not far away, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

The bodyguard was covered with things, like a senior member of the Beggar Clan, with eighteen bags of stuff.

Yang Miaoyan was stunned at first. After following Li Yuanji's gaze and glancing at the guards, he roughly understood what Li Yuanji was thinking. He immediately said in a funny voice: "Alang, when we return to the palace, we not only have to celebrate the first day of the new year, but we also have to give a holiday."

The guards and the palace people will give you rewards. When the juniors come to see you, you should also give them rewards. And during the New Year's Eve banquet, you should give gifts to your father and give gifts to the ladies of the palace.

And give gifts to your younger brothers and sisters."

As he said that, Yang Miaoyan looked at the eighteen carts and continued: "The ones here are only part of them. I also prepared a lot in the palace."

Li Yuanji opened his mouth, and besides sighing in his heart that the Li family in Longxi was indeed a wealthy family, what else could he say?

In this era of strong human relationships, courtesy and courtesy are unavoidable.

Not only does Mr. Li have many people, but also many relatives, so he naturally prepares many gifts. "Then I will leave this matter entirely to you."

Li Yuanji did not hesitate to leave these matters of courtesy exchanges to Yang Miaoyan. It was not that he was unwilling to handle these matters, but that it was unnecessary.

After all, as one of the core members of the Tang Dynasty royal family, he did not need to work hard to prepare gifts for others.

This includes Li Yuan.

As a bastard son, it is already very good not to ask Li Yuan for gifts, but why not give gifts to Li Yuan?

Give me a daddy!

Is that what a bastard son should do to work hard to give me a gift? No! That is what a filial son should do!

Is Li Yuanji a filial son? No! He is a rebellious son!

This is what Li Yuan said himself! "Has Alang ever handled this matter?"

Yang Miaoyan didn't know what Li Yuanji was thinking. After hearing what Li Yuanji said, she asked dumbfounded.

Li Yuanji pretended not to hear Yang Miaoyan's words and called to his four minions, "Let's go! Get in the car! Go back to the palace!"

Li Chengqian's four minions immediately cheered and rushed to gather around Li Yuanji.

Each one of them was holding a red panda in their hands, and they were all pinching their necks.

I don’t know what evil the red panda did in his previous life, but he encountered four evil stars like this in this life.

Like pulling a carrot, Li Yuanji put the minions into the car one after another, and waved to Dou Han who was not far away. After sending Dou Han into the car, he followed the shaft and got into the carriage. .

Yang Miaoyan raised her neck and smiled sweetly, "I won't follow Alang and join in the fun." Then she took Wang Ruan to another carriage. Wang Ruan was Yang Miaoyan's confidant who supported him personally, so he was trusted by Yang Miaoyan.

When Li Yuanji entered the carriage carriage, the four minions had already made a fuss. There were things Yang Miaoyan stuffed in the carriage, so there was not much room for movement.

When the four little minions made a fuss, the little panda and Dou Huan were in trouble, and could only huddle pitifully in a corner of the carriage.

I don't know if Ling Jing said something to Dou Han in private, or if Dou Han has become wiser on his own.

All in all, Dou Huan no longer plays with Li Ling and others, but considers himself a maid and a servant, living in the house.

Li Yuanji once deliberately guided her, hoping that Dou Han could live in the house like Li Ling and others; Yang Miaoyan also always treated Dou Han as a girl in the house, and did not lack food and clothing.

But Dou Huan still regarded herself as a maid, and it was useless to say anything.

Li Yuanji told Ling Jing about this matter, hoping that Ling Jing could do some ideological work on Dou Huan, but Ling Jing said that this would be good.

It wasn't until he couldn't hide it anymore when he was asked that he said pitifully that the reason why he secretly let Dou Han live in Prince Qi's mansion like a maid was because he didn't want Dou Han to become a tool for marriage one day.

When Li Yuanji heard Ling Jing's words, he instantly understood what Ling Jing was thinking.

From then on, I never considered guiding Dou Han to live in the house like Li Ling and others.

In this era where marriage is as common as eating and drinking, even a princess who is a blood relative of the royal family cannot escape the fate of being arranged to marry, let alone a girl from an enemy's family.

Especially the girl from the enemy's family who has enjoyed the royal favor.

If Dou Huan lives in the house like Li Ling and others, then Li Yuan will definitely think of Dou Huan immediately once the marriage comes up.

After all, royal favors are not easy to enjoy.

Except for a handful of people who enjoy royal favors without paying a price, the vast majority of people have to pay a price, and it's a heavy price.

This cost is enough to affect a person's life.

However, Li Yuanji was confident that Dou Huan could enjoy the royal favor without paying any big price.

But Ling Jing obviously hopes that Dou Huan can live an ordinary life without being separated from everyone from now on.

Therefore, Li Yuanji complied with Ling Jing's wishes and no longer deliberately interfered with Dou Huan's life. Amidst the noise of the four disgusting minions, Chang'an City soon arrived.

The soldiers guarding the city gate saw the obvious carriage that only the prince was qualified to sit on, and decisively cleared all the passing carriages in the city gate hole, allowing the team of Prince Qi's Mansion to enter Mingde Gate unimpeded. .

When I reached the middle of Zhuque Street, I was stopped by someone.

The leading guard commander didn't ask any questions and just scolded him decisively. "Who is so impudent as to dare to block the king's carriage?!" The guard commander didn't care at all about the identity of the person blocking the road.

Because he was convinced that no matter how high the status of the person blocking the road was, he could not be higher than his Royal Highness. "My master, please see me."

The person blocking the road didn't care about the shouts of the guard commander. After bowing, he handed over a greeting card, which was quite formal.

The leader of the guards scolded with a cold face: "No matter who your master is, you will be punished if you stop the king."

This is a rule, a rule set by Li Yuan. When a low-ranking official meets a high-ranking official on the road, he must give way. When a small official meets a high-ranking official on the road, he must give way.

Last year, Yin Ah Shu dared to break Du Ruhui's fingers because Du Ruhui broke one of the rules by not dismounting when passing by the Yin Mansion.

Otherwise, Li Yuan would not have been able to stand firmly on Yin Asu's side, and Du Ruhui would not have received a beating in vain.

The nature of blocking Wang Jia is more serious than this. "The villain is willing to take the blame."

Those who blocked the road also knew the consequences of blocking the road, and stood there in a polite manner, waiting to receive the punishment.

The commander of the guards sent people to capture him on the spot without hesitation, and then sent the greeting card he delivered to Li Yuanji.

After reading the greeting card, Li Yuanji smiled happily, then tore it into pieces and threw it into the lantern hanging above the carriage.

The invitation was from the Dou Mansion, and the owner of the invitation was the famous Prince Zan, Dou Gui. He promised to make an appointment to visit him after the new year. The purpose of the visit was not stated.

But Li Yuanji could guess that it was nothing more than discussing how to "cede territory and pay compensation" to calm his anger.

But what time is it now? The fire has already reached the roof. Dou Gui is still showing off and stalling for time?

Do you want to take advantage of the Chinese New Year to find reinforcements, or discuss countermeasures with the Zhaozhou Li family and face the situation together?

The question is..."Am I giving you enough time?"

Li Yuanji was sarcastic in his heart, and at the same time he called to a guard guarding the carriage, "Take two people to find Ling Changshi and King Hejian, and ask them to help find out what the Dou family is doing in Zhaozhou." Business."

It was clearly time for a strong man to cut off his arms, but the Dou family still refused to make a decision, and refused to make a clean break with the Zhaozhou Li family.

This shows that Dou's business in Zhaozhou is not small and it is difficult for Dou to give up.

So Li Yuanji wanted to know what kind of business was worth taking such a big risk for Dou. "I have ordered you to take people to handle it immediately." The guard bowed respectfully, nodded to two close guards, and left. Team.

Li Yuanji continued to move forward in the carriage, and when he arrived at the Golden Bridge in front of Tai Chi Palace, it was already completely dark.

The soldiers guarding both sides of the Golden Bridge and the walls of the imperial city seemed to know that he was going back to the palace today, so they were not in a hurry to lock him.

It wasn't until all the convoys from his residence entered the city gate that it was slowly locked.
