Chapter 0375 Whispering into the door

Changsun Yan never thought that Li Chengqi, the prince of Shouchun, would come to visit him. And it was so late. The first update had passed. The gates had been closed. He was enjoying the bed with several concubines, but Li Chengqi arrived unexpectedly.

Although this was a very rude time, Changsun Yan knew that this was to avoid the eyes and ears of those who were interested. He quickly put on his clothes and went out of the gate to greet him in person.

Li Chengqi's carriage was parked at the side door of Changsun Mansion. At this time, he sat in the carriage and did not get out. Li Chengqi was also helpless. Unexpectedly, Li Zhen actually asked him to do this. Once the emperor knew that he had gone to Chang'an to visit the Guanlong nobles, the consequences would be unimaginable, but he had to do this favor.

With a squeak, the side door opened, and Chang Sunyan, wearing casual clothes and a small hat, appeared at the door, leaning his head to look at both sides, "This!" Li Chengqi shouted in a low voice in the carriage.

Changsun Yan was stunned for a while, and after a while, he realized that Li Chengqi asked him to enter the carriage to talk. He hurried out of the side door and got into the carriage directly.

"I'm sorry to bother Uncle Shi like this!"

Changsun Yan is the grandson of Changsun Wuji. He is indeed better than Li Chengqi in terms of generations, but the other party is the eldest son of the Prime Minister. Changsun Yan dared not be rude and hurriedly bowed and said, "I am here to see Your Highness!"

"Let's just tell a long story!"

Li Chengqi ordered, and the carriage slowly started and walked in the yard. Changsun Yan was surprised. He didn't know how Li Chengqi came to Chang'an. It must be something important. He dared not speak too much and listened carefully.

Li Chengqi pondered for a moment and said, "My father asked me to talk to Uncle Shi. The situation in the court has been relatively stable recently. We plan to move the warriors from the south to the north and train them near Luoyang, but the venue cannot be found for the time being."

Although Changsun Yan couldn't speak, he still understood what Li Chengqi meant. He hurriedly said, "Please tell me your highness! Where do you need to place the warriors? I'll buy a manor."

When Li Chengqi thought of what Li Zhen said to him, Changsun Yan was not reliable in his work and could not let him know the core secret. He smiled and said, "I haven't decided where to put it yet? But we plan to buy a large manor with a thousand hectares of land, which costs about 30,000 guan."

Li Chengqi changed the idea of ​​entrusting full power to Changsun Yan. He just needed Sun Yan to pay for the purchase of the manor to let those who are reliable in doing things operate.

Changsun Yan did not realize Li Chengqi's true meaning. Although the amount of 30,000 guan of money was simply unimaginable to ordinary people, he was not a large amount of Changsun. He just hesitated for a little bit, and Changsun Yan happily agreed, "I will let the Wang family hand over this money to Your Highness. As long as your Highness needs it, you can withdraw it at any time."

The carriage turned around the yard and slowly lost to the Changsun Mansion.

"I have another thing I have to look for Uncle Shi today, that is about the sister of Wang Yuanbao. Uncle Shi should know!"

How could Changsun Yan not know that Wang Qingyu was the concubine who was preparing to marry for his third son's happiness, but Wang Qingyu had never been to the family, but Changsun Yan did not allow Wang Qingyu to remarry. On the one hand, it was related to the face of the Changsun family, and on the other hand, it was also to control the Wang family. But more importantly, Changsun Yan looked down on the Wang family at all in his bones.

In other aspects, Changsun Yan was slow to react, but in this aspect he was quick to react. He immediately understood and smiled and said, "If your highness likes Wang Qingyu, of course, the subordinates will not stop him. I will cancel this engagement with the Wang family tomorrow."

Li Chengqi nodded with a smile, "Uncle Shi's attitude is admirable. I believe my father will appreciate it very much, but it's not that I want to marry Miss Wang, but that Li Zhen wants to marry her."

Changsun Yan was stunned when he was about to come to the side door of Changsun's house again and stopped slowly...

A few months after Li Zhen took office, two major events were circulated in Li Zhen's mansion. One was that Li Zhen's wife, Mrs. Di, was pregnant, and the other was even more interesting. Li Zhen would marry the daughter of the Wang family as the second wife. Although the essence of the second wife is no different from that of the concubine, the second wife that Li Zhen wanted to marry was still different from an ordinary concubine.

First, the Wang family wanted to marry a daughter with a grand ceremony, which was different from the fact that ordinary concubines were taking a carriage to send people into the mansion at night. Secondly, it was rumored that in order to commend Li Zhen's contribution, the emperor specially issued an order to confer the title of the fifth-ranked wife of the Wang family's daughter. This was no status and was a world away from ordinary concubines.

Of course, people with discerning eyes naturally understand that the second wife is the second wife and can never replace the right wife.

At night, Li Zhen sat next to Di Yan, listening to her stomach for a moment. Di Yan stroked his hair and laughed: "It's still early! The midwife said she would hear it in two months."

At this time, a maid at the door whispered: "General, Mrs. Quan is urging the general again."

Li Zhen was upset and turned around and scolded: "You ask her to wait a little longer, and I will go there."

Di Yan smiled and advised, "Go! You have to try fitting today and set off early tomorrow morning, otherwise it will be too late."

According to the plan reached by Li Quan and the Wang family, the wedding of a wife was changed to the wedding of a concubine. The Wang family would send Wang Qingyu to Li Quan's mansion tomorrow morning, and Li Zhen would greet him at the gate, where he would give a simple husband-and-wife gift to Di Yan, and then return to Li Zhen's mansion together in the evening to give a sister-to-skin gift to Di Yan. This is the complete process of marrying a concubine.

Of course, this plan also obtained Di Yan's consent. After all, Di Yan is the real wife, and Di Yan has the final say whether it is to marry or take a concubine. Li Quan is just the organizer.

The plan took care of the face of the Wang family and also took into account Di Yan's dignity, and both sides expressed their acceptance.

Li Zhen nodded and shook Di Yan's hand, "I'll be back if I go!"

He stood up and left quickly. Di Yan looked at her husband's departure and couldn't help but sigh. No woman would like her husband to marry another woman. However, there are some things that must be appropriately compromised in order to win Li Zhen to make concessions in other aspects. Otherwise, one day Shangguan Wan'er entered the door, which would be her Di Yan's nightmare...

Although rumors of the Wang family marrying a daughter are circulating in Chang'an, when the Wang family marrying a daughter team really appeared, not many people were interested.

Of course, this was related to Wang Yuanbao's sudden change of plan. He planned to form a team of more than 500 people to send off a bride, but was strongly opposed by Wang Qingyu. She was unwilling to make a big fuss. In the end, Wang Yuanbao had to compromise and reduce the team of 500 people to 50 people.

So when Wang Qingyu's bride-seeking team appeared, many people did not realize that this bride-seeking team of fifty people was actually the richest sister of Chang'an, and thought it was just an ordinary wedding team.

This is actually the shrewdness of Wang Yuanbao's merchant. Since he can no longer stop his sister from marrying Li Zhen, he will earn the greatest benefit from this marriage. After all, Li Zhen is left behind in Chang'an and has great power. First of all, he cannot turn against his sister, and secondly, he cannot offend Li Zhen. Therefore, Wang Yuanbao obediently handles any request made by Wang Qingyu.

Wang Qingyu and his personal maid sat in a gorgeous carriage. In front of them were more than a dozen drummers playing and beating, and behind them were more than a dozen carriages loaded with Wang Qingyu's dowry. Two horse-riding guards followed each carriage.

Wang Qingyu wore a phoenix crown and a big red wedding robe. She was extremely excited. This was a major event in her life and her destination for the rest of her life. She had been looking forward to this day for a long time, but she did not expect it to finally become a reality. Tears gently slid from the corners of her eyes, and she couldn't help crying with joy.

However, as the carriage got closer and closer to Xuanyangfang, Wang Qingyu became a little nervous, and she felt a little uneasy. After all, she and Li Zhen were not as familiar as Di Yan. Will there be a little embarrassment between them? Thinking of the embarrassment, she suddenly remembered what she was going to do tonight, her face suddenly turned red with shame and her whole body became hot.

"Girl, here!"

The maid reminded her softly, and Wang Qingyu discovered that her carriage had already entered Xuanyangfang.

‘Bang! Bang!’

Flashes of deafening firecrackers sounded in Xuanyangfang, unlike the deserted outside. Xuanyang was crowded with people, and almost every household was dispatched to help the elderly and young, and came to watch the Wang family marry their daughter. The carriage was crowded with men, women, and young people. There were smiling faces everywhere, shouting blessings. Several Wang family entourages scattered handfuls of copper coins to the crowd, attracting a fight between the children.

The more and more people, the road was crowded and it was difficult for the carriage to move forward. At this time, Jiuzhi led a hundred soldiers to come and shouted, "Groupes, let the newcomers pass by."

The crowd finally made way, and the carriage began to slowly walk, and stopped in front of Li Quan's mansion. The door was filled with hundreds of wooden signs and decorated with lights. Li Zhen stood at the gate in the groom's costume. At this time, two grooms helped Wang Qingyu out, and more than a dozen maids immediately covered her. Li Zhen walked forward with a smile, walked side by side with Wang Qingyu, and the two slowly walked towards the mansion.

"Are you okay on the road?" Li Zhen asked in a low laugh.

Wang Qingyu was shy and nervous, and couldn't even speak, but said softly, "Yeah!". The husband and wife's ceremony was very simple. They knelt on a table with candles and incense, worshiping the world three times together, and then the couple bowed to each other, missing a high-rise kneeling.

"Worship the heaven and earth together!"

As Li Quan shouted loudly, Li Zhen and Wang Qingyu knelt down on the cushion together and bowed to heaven and earth three times together.

"Honey husband and wife!"...

It was already dark and the carriage was pitch black. Wang Qingyu sat quietly by the car window, lowering her head deeply. Although she and Li Zhen had already worshipped the world, she was still very nervous and shy in her heart, and she did not dare to look at her husband sitting next to her.

Li Zhen gently held her smooth and tender hand and laughed softly, "When I was in Gaochang, I admire you like a fairy, and I never could believe that one day you will become my wife."

Wang Qingyu also whispered: "At that time, you were staring at someone with a terrible look on your face."

"I didn't dare at that time, but now I'm a little uneasy."

As she said that, Li Zhen gently hugged her waist and let her snuggle in her arms. Wang Qingyu's heart was so nervous that she pounded. She knew what was going to happen, she was very nervous, but she had a little expectation.
