The process of meeting his mother-in-law was still very smooth, after all, Li Xin's current conditions, even among the many concubines, were among the best.

The nine daughters of the first emperor, which princess's concubine can be a squire in the military department? Which princess's colt is a marquis?

This queen mother only hated that there was no way to let Xiao Jiu and Li Xin get married immediately.

Because the mourning period has not yet passed.

Originally, the first emperor stinks sweat, according to the rules, the ninth princess is to keep filial piety for three years and not to marry, but there are special cases in the Great Jin Dynasty, and when they reach the marriageable age, they have the permission of the Son of Heaven to shorten this time.

Even so, at the earliest, you have to keep filial piety for a whole year, and after you finish keeping filial piety, you have to go to the mausoleum of the first emperor to explain the situation, and only after the sacrifice can you get married.

The first emperor was buried in the moon last year, which means that in the fastest case, the ninth princess will not be able to get married until five months later, and she can't get married just over a year, that would be too deliberate.

It was probably not until the middle of the second year of Taikang that the ninth princess could marry Li Xin.

In addition, because 8 Taikang Tianzi only has a son and no daughter, so the queen mother has no granddaughter, and the small Zhong Xiaoxiao is very much liked by the queen mother, and she refuses to put it down in her arms.

In the afternoon, Li Xin was about to leave Kunde Palace, and the Queen Mother said that she would leave Zhong Xiaoxiao behind.

After obtaining Zhong Xiaoxiao's consent, she stayed in the palace with the Ninth Princess and wanted to stay for a few days.

At around the time of Shen Shi in the afternoon, Li Xin left the imperial city alone.

Marquis Li had nothing to do, and after walking around Yongle Fang, he turned to the back door of Chen Guogong's mansion.

This was the first time he came to Chen Guogong's mansion, and he didn't bring wine.

The little grandfather, Ye Mao, soon came to the back door to greet him, and after seeing Li Xin, he pulled Li Xin's sleeve and smiled reluctantly: "When did Brother Li come back, why didn't you go to the front door?" ”

Li Xin frowned: "Why is the little grandfather worried?" ”

Ye Mao was a little listless, and while leading the way in front, he said: "The fourth uncle left the capital a few months ago, and now I am the only one in the Ye family who has nothing to do, like a rice worm, doing nothing. ”

Ye Mao was born in the eleventh year of Shengong, and now he is twenty-one or twelve years old according to his virtual age, this age is already a complete adult, and his peers in the capital generally have a place to go, only he is still staying at home, and it is inevitable that he will be depressed.

Shengong is the name of the era of Emperor Xianwu...... One.

It is worth mentioning that Emperor Taikang, who has been passed down from the Great Jin Dynasty to the present day, is already the eighth generation of the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven has only one year name in all dynasties, but Emperor Wu is not.

At the beginning of Emperor Wu's accession to the throne, the year name was the vertical arch, the vertical arch was four years, the world war began, the war had been fought for eight years, to the twelfth year of the vertical arch, the world returned to Jin, and Emperor Wu unified the four seas, so he changed the Yuan Shengong.

The little grandfather sighed and continued: "I knew that when His Majesty asked me to do that Qianniu Wei Zhonglang General, I would just grit my teeth and do it, and I wouldn't be still at home now, and I can't go anywhere." ”

Speaking of this, the little grandfather gritted his teeth and said: "Even Hou Jingde's son Hou Ying is now working in the forbidden army, and in the entire capital, I am not the only one who has no interest." ”

Li Xin smiled: "Little grandfather, you told me these words, and I won't tell my husband for you." ”

Ye Mao coughed, his face a little red.

The reason why he can't go out to do things is because his husband Ye Sheng won't let him out, and he is now complaining about these things in front of Li Xin, just to ask Li Xin to help him intercede.

After all, the old man in his own family can't listen to anyone's words, but he attaches great importance to Li Xin's words.

Ye Mao was exposed by Li Xin's thoughts, and he became angry.

"Don't talk about pulling down, you go find him yourself, I won't show you the way!"

This little grandfather turned his head and left.

Li Xin shook his head and smiled.

He has been to Chen Guogong's Mansion many times, and Li Xin naturally knows where the old man lives.

It didn't take long for him to stand at the door of the little courtyard.

Knock lightly on the door.

Old man Ye's angry voice came from inside.

"Come in."

Li Xin lowered his hand and walked in.

His expression was obtained by Ye Sheng for him, in a sense, Ye Sheng is already his teacher, but he lacks the title of apprentice.

After entering the courtyard, Li Xin went all the way into Ye Sheng's study, smiling.

"Old man, I'm here to see you."

Ye Sheng glanced at Li Xin up and down, and then patted the table.

"Some people, when they become big officials, they become less and less exquisite."

He was complaining that Li Xin didn't bring him wine.

Li Xin laughed and sat down opposite the old man.

"I just came out of the palace, I came in a hurry, I will definitely make up for my husband next time."

Old man Ye said disdainfully: "The old man is rare about your wine? ”

Li Xin picked up the tea on the table, poured a cup of tea for the old man, and said with a smile: "The old man is old, and he should drink less wine, which is not good for his health." ”

Ye Sheng sneered.

"Pingnan Hou Li Zhijie, never drank alcohol in his life, but this guy died in his fifties, the old man is not happy with alcohol, and now he is four out of seventy, and he is still alive!"

Li Xin said helplessly: "People are different, how can they be compared like this?" ”

Ye Sheng picked up the tea on the table, raised his head and took a sip, and then said with a smile: "In the past thirty years, the old man has been worried that the Ye family will not last long, so he has worked hard to live to this day, and wants to protect the Ye family for a few more days. ”

In the Chengde Dynasty, if the Ye family didn't have Ye Sheng, it wouldn't necessarily be a good end, but with the coup d'état last year, the Ye family's status in the new dynasty was as stable as Mount Tai, so Old Man Ye said that he didn't matter.

Li Xin sighed: "You can't say that, you have to live a long life to be a hundred years old." ”

This is the truth, with Ye Sheng here, he can help Li Xin a lot.

Old man Ye smiled dumbly, and then looked up at Li Xin: "When did you come back?" ”

"Yesterday afternoon."

"You can really calm down, and it's been more than half a year."

Old man Ye shook his head and sighed: "At your age, I don't have your determination, at this juncture, I will be gone for more than half a year." ”

After a pause, he continued: "The old man thought that you should come back in two or three months. ”

Li Xin chuckled and said: "In a place like the capital, I can hide for a day, if it is not for His Majesty to urge me to return to Beijing three times, I will at least wait until the end of the New Year to come back." ”

Ye Sheng put down the teacup in his hand and glanced up at Li Xin.

"Your Majesty...... What are you doing in such a hurry to come back? ”

Li Xin smiled: "The old man has always been as wise as a torch, might as well guess?" ”

Ye Sheng's eyes burned.

"Your Majesty is in a hurry to take power?"

In fact, this is not difficult to guess, an emperor who has just ascended the throne, except for this matter, there will be no other major events.

Li Xin smiled and nodded: "The old man is wise." ”

Ye Sheng was silent for a while, and then said, "It's too urgent." ”

"There's no way not to rush."

Li Xin said softly: "The abolished prince is gone, Your Majesty has no sense of security, he is in a hurry to get these things in his hands, so as not to snatch the abolished prince back again." ”

As he spoke, he put down the teacup in his hand.

"Grandpa, what has Li Shen been doing for most of the year?"
