Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 226 Cooperation and Birthday Banquet

"This sounds like the truth, but are you really capable of taking charge?" Li Zedao

"Marquis Xiuyuan, my eldest brother is banned from the house. I can decide everything." Ling Buhuo said

"Haha, that's not a small tone, but I don't believe you, so I'll let this matter go. I still have things to deal with here, so I won't send it away." Li Ze said directly.

Ling Buhuo didn't panic at all after hearing this, but smiled and said, "Marquis Xiuyuan, why are you doing this? I said, I can make the decision this time."

"What your family wants to do is to marry into the He family. Haven't I made it clear enough?"

"No, you said it very clearly, Marquis Xiangwu, but it's just because it's so clear that I dare not agree. After all, no matter how you look at this matter, it's my Li family who takes advantage."

"There may be good things in this world, but they will never come from you and be given to my Li family for nothing. Your advantages are not so easy to take advantage of." Li Ze said solemnly.

"Hahaha, yes, yes, Xiuyuan Hou, I really want to cooperate with you now. This time I am talking about my Xiangwu Hou Mansion." Ling Buhuo said

"You, what are you talking about? You want to cooperate with my Li family? Marquis Xiangwu, are you sure you are not joking? To put it bluntly, do you have the qualifications?" Li Zedao

"Okay, it's refreshing enough. I didn't have the qualifications before, but now, it's enough. After all, the three of you are not living an easy life now, are they?" Ling Buhuo said with a smile.

"Haha, Marquis Xiangwu, where did you start with these words?" Li Ze asked directly

"Where do we start? The three of you were in Xindu and welcomed His Majesty into the city. That's how we got the status we have today. But the old Marquis Huaili died of illness in front of the army."

"The Marquis of Shui and Marquis of Aling in your family are good at internal affairs and have little foundation in the military. They seem to be quite prosperous now. What about the future?"

"And among the major forces in the army, the one who is most trusted by His Majesty, except my eldest brother, is not the second choice. Am I not qualified now?" Ling Buhuo asked.

"You are right, but you also said that was your eldest brother, not you." Li Ze frowned.

"Yes, it is indeed the case, but Hou Xiuyuan, do you think my elder brother will cooperate with you? In fact, this cooperation is a win-win for you and me, isn't it?"

"What happened this time is my sincerity. What if you accept it? Then we are allies, and we should cooperate fully from now on." Ling Buhuo said

"Marquis Xiangwu, you seem to be very confident. Aren't you afraid that the Li family will play tricks on you?" Li Zedao

"Marquis Xiuyuan, you should know very well who I am. When it comes to dealing with Marquis Zhongshui, I may be overestimating my abilities, but for your Marquis Xiuyuan Mansion, it's not a big problem. What do you think?" Ling Buhuo smiled. road

"Okay, since everything has been said to this point, there is nothing to hesitate about. I can promise you, but it is only my Xiuyuan Hou Mansion, as for my eldest brother."

"He is taking office in Danyang. He needs me to write to him later." Li Ze said in a deep voice.

"Okay, then the matter is settled. I'm waiting to see your young master's performance." Ling Buhuo naturally agreed directly after hearing this, and then turned around and left.

Looking at Ling Buhuo's leaving figure, Li Ze muttered to himself, "This wolf is still a wolf after all. It can't be raised well."

After he finished speaking, he shook his head directly, and then asked someone to call his son in.

"Father, I see that Ling Zichen has left. How was your conversation?" Li Xu asked

"Hmph, okay, you can go after He Zhaojun tomorrow. How are you? Are you satisfied?" Li Ze said to his son angrily.

"Um, Father, what do you think you said? I. Am I not?" Li Xu said

"Okay, I don't care what method you use, you have to catch this person. If this time is the same as last time, you can go to Danyang and let your uncle discipline you." Li Zedao

"Father, don't worry. I will definitely succeed this time. But, Dad, what exactly did Ling Buhuo promise to you? You didn't agree to what I said before. Why did you do it as soon as he came?" Li Xu asked

"Huh, don't worry about what he said. In short, you can get closer to him in the future." Li Zedao

"Yes, yes, father, don't worry, I know what to do." Li Xu said quickly

But at this time, Ling Buhuo did not go back to his mansion, but went directly to his eldest brother's mansion.

"Huh? Why are you here? Is there something wrong?" Ling Bu asked.

"Brother, there is no problem. It's just that I agreed to a cooperation for you. The matter between Prince Xiao and He Zhaojun has caused quite a stir recently."

"The Xiao family's arrogant ambitions naturally cannot be allowed to succeed, so I went to see Xiuyuan Hou. Xiuyuan Hou has agreed to let his son fight for He Zhaojun." Ling Buhuo said.

"Huh? Li Xu? That's a good idea, but I want to know what conditions you agreed to to the Li family to make them agree to do this?" Ling Busuo asked.

"Brother, what else can we do besides forming an alliance? The three of them don't have much strength in the military now, but we do, so naturally we hit it off."

"Brother, please don't rush to curse. I know you don't want to get too involved with these people, but you can't do it without getting involved. After all, what you want to do cannot be done by His Majesty alone."

"If Your Majesty can allow you to achieve your goal, you won't have to check it yourself, right? Brother, you need someone to support you, so that someone in the court can speak for you."

"Your Majesty is not in such a difficult situation. If there is opposition in the DPRK, even Your Majesty will have to take care of it, right?" Ling Buhuo said.

After hearing this, Ling Buhuo stopped talking for a while, because he had to admit that Ling Buhuo was right, and he didn't care, but His Majesty really didn't want to embarrass him too much.

"Okay, then I agree to this, but remember, if you dare to help me make a decision next time, hum!" Ling Buyi snorted coldly.

"Yes, yes, brother, calm down. Brother, calm down. I have no choice but to do this. I promise, there will never be a next time." Ling Buhuo said

"Okay, let's go. If you need me to step in, you can come to me again." Ling Busuo said

After hearing this, Ling Buhuo bowed directly, then exited the study, and quickly left the mansion and headed towards his home.

What he didn't know was that not long after he left, Liang Qiuqi left the former general's residence and went to the palace, and soon entered the imperial study.

"Well, I know everything. You go back and tell Zisheng that he should stop worrying about these things and choose a girl as soon as possible. That is the most important thing for him right now." Emperor Wen said

After hearing this, Liang Qiu naturally did not dare to say anything, so he bowed directly and then exited the imperial study.

After Liang Qiu left, Emperor Wen's expression changed and he called Jiang Chong in.

"After Jiang Chong arrived, Emperor Wen said directly, "Tell me, what happened to Feng Yijun? "Your Majesty, according to the results of my investigation, King Yong did have the intention to rebel." "

"But it seems that he hasn't made up his mind yet, so he sold the equipment. He probably wants Shu to test it for him first." Jiang Chong bowed.

"Huh? Really? When you go back, investigate the He family. Remember not to let anyone find anything unusual. If you find anything, come and report it to me as soon as possible." Emperor Wen said

After hearing this, Jiang Chong naturally bowed quickly and then exited the imperial study. After Jiang Chong left, Emperor Wen said to himself, "You must not force me. I really don't want to do anything."

And for these things. Ling Buhuo didn't know, but he was not relaxed at all. Otherwise, his wife was waiting for him in the room to tell him the result?

"Shaoshang, you don't have to worry. Things went smoothly this time. Everything has been settled. Really, you don't have to worry." Ling Buhuo said

"Well, I understand. I feel relieved when you say that. Are you hungry? Let's go eat. I have them all ready." Shaoshang said with a smile.

"Okay, madam, if you say so, I am indeed hungry. Let's take a walk." Ling Buhuo said

After the two of them had dinner, Ling Buhuo finally told Shao Shang what had happened. Of course, there were some things that couldn't be discussed.

"Oh? If that's the case, aren't you going to go on an expedition soon, husband?" Shaoshang asked worriedly

"It won't happen so soon. We have to wait. Your Majesty is kind. If they don't take action, Your Majesty won't take action. So it's still early?" Ling Buhuo said.

"Oh, that's good, that's good, I thought, I thought." Shaoshang said

"Madam, don't worry. Even if I really go on an expedition, I will be careful. After all, we are not married yet? How can I let you stay alone in an empty room?" Ling Buhuo said.

"Fuck you, I know these unscrupulous people will ignore you. Go back quickly." Shaoshang said

Ling Buhuo naturally refused. In the end, Shaoshang reluctantly kissed him, and he left the room with some lingering feelings.

Time passed slowly, and soon the day of the Wanjia birthday banquet came. There was a lot of traffic in front of the Wanfu gate, and it was very lively. The arrival of Ling Buhuo and his wife attracted the attention of the whole audience.

Yes, it's such an exaggeration. As for the reason, it's naturally because of what Ling Buhuo did for the fourth lady of the Cheng family.

Although it was impossible to know everything, some things were still spread. Although some people saw them on the day of the Lantern Festival, there were still many people who had not seen them.

So naturally they were all curious, and the curiosity of the female relatives was to see what kind of girl Ling Buhuo could like.

After entering the Wan family, Ling Buhuo winked at his wife, and then went to where the young masters of each family were.

Shaoshang naturally followed Wan Qiqi to the corridor where the girls were.

"Wan Qiqi, is this the way your Wan family treats guests? Are you leaving us here just to pick up the person behind you? We are here to celebrate your eldest mother's birthday, don't you think it's too rude? ?" Wang Yao said angrily.

"I mean, Wang Jian, I just sent you this post to be polite. I didn't expect you to be so thick-skinned. Are you really here?"

"Yes, I did go to pick up my sister Shaoshang. What? It's okay if others have opinions. How dare you, Wang Jian, to have any opinions? Don't you know who my sister Shaoshang is?" Wan Qiqi said.

Wang Jiao was immediately retorted and couldn't say a word, but at this time, Shao Shang slowly stepped forward, walked to Princess Yuchang, bowed and said, "Sishu, I am polite."

The people present were originally wondering how the fourth wife of the Cheng family could manage so well and went to live with Princess Yuchang. However, when they heard this title, they were immediately frightened.

"What, you, what did you call me?" Princess Yuchang asked back

"Princess, before I came here, my husband told me many times that my aunt had said that I wanted my son-in-law to marry you, so why did I do this? What if the princess doesn't like it?" Shao Shang asked.

"No, there's no need to change it. Just call it this way from now on. Come on, come on, my wife, sit here with me. Let me tell you, in fact, I didn't want to come today. I just heard that you would come, so I Come and have fun." Princess Yuchang was naturally very happy after hearing this.

At this time, everyone present was dumbfounded. What kind of situation is this? Has the situation changed too quickly? So soon, why did Shi Yilang have to be her?

Although he said this in his heart, he naturally couldn't show it on his face. At this time, after dealing with Princess Yuchang for a few words, Shao Shang walked up to Wang Yao again.

"Listening to what you just said, you want to stand up for your brother, right? But I'm afraid your calculation is wrong. My husband can make your brother stay away, so I can do the same!"

"Listen carefully, I don't like you very much. From now on, wherever I am, you can either be honest, or we can fight it out. It's your choice." Shaoshang said calmly.

After Wang Jiao heard this, she wanted to retort a few words, but she was not really stupid. Her original idea was to use Princess Yuchang's presence to suppress Cheng Shaoshang.

But who would have thought that Princess Yuchang would be so unsatisfied now that she would be so happy that she couldn't find anything to say about it. She didn't even think about when Ling Buhuo would have the final say on Eleventh Lang's marriage.

But it was impossible for her to say these words, otherwise she would be in bad luck due to Princess Yuchang's unruly temperament, so she naturally did not dare to speak now.

When the people present saw this, they still didn't understand. This was because Wang Yao had given up. Although they felt a little disdainful, they could understand. It would probably not be much better for them.

After all, this was the birthday party for the old lady of the Wan family, so when Wang Jiao gave in, Shao Shang didn't say anything more. He winked at Wan Qiqi first, and then returned to Princess Yuchang.

Princess Yuchang, who had watched the whole scene, didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Instead, she felt it was natural.

How dare a mere Wang Yao dare to bully her? She was simply overestimating her abilities, which meant she gave up quickly, otherwise she would have to take care of her.

After this small episode on the female side, the atmosphere returned to the past. With Shao Shang's intentional compliments, Princess Yuchang was really at a loss for words.

He took Shao Shang's hand and said, "My wife, it's my birthday in a few days. You must come then."

"Don't worry, Sis, I will tell my husband when I get back. He will be there at that time." Shaoshang said with a smile.

"Okay, then it's settled, I'll have someone send you a post tomorrow." Princess Yuchang said
