Today, when their daughter came home, Fang Xuanling and Fang Yizhi both took a half-day leave and came back directly after attending court.
Before coming to this era, Li Yuanjia also had an illusion that in ancient times, officials went to court every day, and after the court, they went back to their homes and looked for their mothers. However, after arriving, he discovered that in addition to going to court every day, they also
He also has to go to work.
Especially the big shots in the court, they all have to stay in the palace to work after leaving the court.
The Imperial Palace is divided into the Palace City and the Imperial City.
For example, the palace in Chang'an is divided into three parts in the north. In the middle is the Taiji Palace, which is still called Daxing Palace, where the emperor lives and works. To the east is the East Palace, for the prince, and to the west is the Yeting Palace, for the eunuchs and maids.
This is where they live; and the Imperial City in the south is where the ministers work daily.
So if you want to go home directly after going to court, you must ask for leave first.
But when they saw the scene inside the house, both the young Fang Yizhi and the mature and prudent Fang Xuanling couldn't help but be stunned. The two little ones were lying on the ground with their buttocks sticking out, holding small pieces of wood one by one.
The three older ones were sitting around a small round table, throwing small pieces of paper out one by one. There was also an old one who was sitting behind his daughter who was returning home with her eyes straight.
Stare at those pieces of paper...
Looking at this situation, Fang Xuanling felt a sigh of relief rising to his throat.
In what manner?!
But the moment he saw Li Yuanjia, the prime minister swallowed his breath again, because it was obvious that these new gadgets were brought here by the King of Han.
So after twitching the corner of her mouth a few times, Fang Xuanling quickly stepped forward to greet her.
Although her daughter married Li Yuanjia, the hierarchy between the two parties has not fundamentally changed. Fang Xuanling still has to salute when it is time to salute. And with Fang Yizhi's return, his wife Du Shi also came out to meet everyone.
The room instantly became lively.
And then……
Everyone had lunch together, and two more playing cards were opened by Li Yuanjia. Li Yuanjia accompanied Fang Xuanling and Lu Shi at the table, and Fang Yizhi, Fang Fengzhu, and Fang Yiai were at the table. Everyone started together.
Fight Shanyu.
As for the two little guys, naturally I put them on a shorter table and let them continue to puzzle.
This activity lasted the whole afternoon, until Han Shan quietly walked to Li Yuanjia to remind him, and he stood up and left with a look of regret. The curfew in the early Tang Dynasty was no joke. Even if he was the prince of the Tang Dynasty, he would not have the confidence to go out on the streets after the curfew.
.
"call……"
After the carriage left Liang Guogong's mansion, Li Yuanjia breathed a sigh of relief.
How many years!
I finally played Landlords with others instead of hiding in my study alone with a deck of cards playing the game myself.
Cool!
"Your Majesty, you don't like crowded places?"
Li Yuanjia felt comfortable, but when he saw him looking relieved, Fang Fengzhu seemed to have misunderstood something, biting his lips and asked.
"Huh? How come?"
After hearing what the princess said, Li Yuanjia was slightly startled, then laughed and said: "I am not an old man in his seventies or eighty, how could I not like the excitement? It's just that I was always alone in the past few years, so I'm not used to it."
The power of habit is indeed a bit scary.
From that day on, he has been living a life of fear in the palace. Later, when he came to Luzhou, he was also cautious. In the past few years when he returned to Chang'an, he was "autistic" for nearly three years to keep his filial piety. Unknowingly, he developed the habit of "enjoying solitude".
"The habit of suddenly getting together with so many people in the house to play cards and chat. Even though he was very happy in his heart, it was difficult for Li Yuanjia to show it on his face.
Fang Fengzhu, who was observing him all the time, could easily misunderstand him.
However, after listening to Li Yuanjia's words, the princess still felt a little distressed. She bit her lip again and said softly: "Since the king also likes to be lively, let the eldest brother and Yiai come to the palace often in the future?"
"Oh Well!"
Thinking of the liquor and playing cards he sent out today, Li Yuanjia naturally smiled and nodded: "Not only brother Yi Zhi and Yi Ai, but also your little sisters Fengzhu can be called often, so that they will not be in the palace.
It would be too lonely..."
…
"A pair of 2!"
"A pair of kings! Then a straight...I won again!"
As Fang Yiai threw out the last seven consecutive wins in his hand, the boy jumped up from his chair with excitement, laughing loudly: "Three consecutive wins! And it's Shan Yu's three consecutive wins, haha!"
"..."
After his eyelids twitched a few times, Fang Xuanling threw away the cards in his hand and said angrily: "Okay, it's getting late, everyone should go to bed early."
"Huh? No more fun now?"
After being stunned for a moment, Fang Yiai suddenly became anxious: "Father, it's not dark yet! Besides, can't we continue by lighting candles?"
"Hmph! Don't I have to go to court tomorrow?"
Staring at Fang Yiai fiercely, Fang Xuanling waved her hand and drove her younger son away first. Then she glanced at her eldest son and asked in a low voice: "Yizhi, what's the name of this thing?"
With?"
"Father, call the cards!"
"Poker cards..."
Looking at the fifty-four cards scattered on the table, Fang Xuanling narrowed his eyes and frowned in thought. He had known that there were many new things in Prince Han's Mansion, but the appearance of this playing card today
, it still surprised the prime minister of the day.
Not only was it a battle with Shanyu, they also learned four other ways to play, from the simplest way of catching bamboo poles to more complex upgrades. Each way of playing has its own fun, making people addicted to it without even realizing it.
…
Fifty-four small cards, but the secrets inside are amazing!
and……
Picking up a six of diamonds and looking at the Tianzhu number "6" on it, Fang Xuanling frowned slightly, and a thoughtful look began to flash in his eyes.
"Ms. sir, don't look at these cards."
Just when Fang Xuanling was thinking carefully, as if she had caught something, Mrs. Lu, who had just left, came back and said with a smile: "Come and see the gifts my daughter and the others brought, more than twenty boxes."
Woolen cloth!"
"Oh? What did you bring?"
After hearing what Lu said, Fang Xuanling was not only unhappy, but also frowned.
He is not so incorruptible and aloof that he doesn't accept any gifts, not to mention that the one who gives the gifts is his daughter and son-in-law. But Li Yuanjia's status is really special. What Fang Xuanling is afraid of is that he is young and has good face. If he really sends a large amount of property, he will still
Quite troublesome.
However, Mrs. Lu didn't care about this at all, and smiled happily to herself: "At least five boxes of white paper, all of which are your favorite, and there are also many jars of wine, which is said to be brewed by Prince Han's own house...
