A day ago, Li Li's resounding remarks in the lobby of the mansion made his civil and military officers under his command as shocked as if they were deafening.

At that time, the wise and resourceful people such as Li Xuan and Jia Xu were secretly surprised in their hearts, while the generals such as Huan Fei, Dian Wei, and Teng Yu were excited and excited, and they became more and more in awe of Li Li and regarded him as a god.

But no matter what these civil and military generals thought, Li Li was quick to spit out and said the words hidden in his heart. But he only said a small part, and there was a deeper, larger purpose that was not stated. Because these secrets are not humane, they can only be verified one by one after they have happened. At that time, Wen Wu may be able to understand his true intentions.

Putting aside many affairs, Li Li began to prepare for his marriage.

Today is the Zuihou day before the big wedding.

Early in the morning, Li Li was kicked out of the backyard by Dian Wufang and others, and he couldn't even go back to the backyard to sleep tonight, so he could only stay in the front yard and be neighbors with Li Zhi, Tie Tuo, Li Xuan and others.

According to the number of rites, the husband and wife cannot see each other before the wedding, and they can only meet after the church on the wedding day.

Li Xin, Cai Yan, Dian Wufang, Chen Yu and Ren Hongchang and other five daughters got along with Li Li day and night because of their special circumstances, so they did not shy away from getting along with Li Li day and night. But now that the big wedding is imminent, in order to avoid being criticized by others, the five women gritted their teeth and stomped their feet, and ruthlessly drove Li Li out.

It is said that even Cai Yan will return to Cai's mansion in the afternoon, stay at her mother's house tonight, and wait until tomorrow Li Li will send someone to marry her. Ren Hongchang should have been like this, but it's a pity that Li Li is now in conflict with Wang Yun, and he doesn't want Ren Hongchang to show up in front of people, so he let her live in the backyard with Li Xin, Dian Wufang, and Chen Yu. Tomorrow, the four of them will go out from the back door in a sedan chair, and then go around the Longxiang Li Mansion for half a circle, and then come in through the main gate and go through the motions. In the name of the festival.

Li Li complained about this, thinking that it was just a matter of getting married, so why bother. But in order to reassure a few women, he had to do whatever he wanted according to their hearts.

From early in the morning, the backyard was crowded with people, and hundreds of servants and personal soldiers were busy coming and going. They cleaned the entire backyard and every corner of the ditch, and dozens of rooms had to be thoroughly cleaned from the inside out until the backyard was completely renovated.

Li Li shook his head at this scene, and then he reluctantly took Li Zhi and Tie Tuo out of the backyard. Go back to the front yard and stay there. It is said that after a while, Li Dao will also bring a few waiters invited from the palace to teach him the etiquette when he gets married, so as not to break the rules and regulations and attract ridicule.

In the face of such troublesome red tape, Li Li is the first two big. smiled bitterly, but was helpless.

Now the streets and alleys of Chang'an City are talking about his marriage to six wives at once.

It can be said that rumors are flying all over the sky. People are piling up everywhere.

This is the first new thing in the 400 years since the founding of the Han Dynasty. has always been three wives and four concubines, but he didn't want to be the first to marry six wives at a time. That's really new!

The power of gossip is staggering. Others don't talk about it for the time being, just say that Li Dao and Cai Yong have both accepted this fact before, but they are driven by rumors, and now they can't bear it. For this reason, they consulted Li Li again and again. Can the six wives be changed to three wives and three concubines, so that others have nothing to discuss, in line with the etiquette. Not afraid of words.

But Li Li was indifferent to this, turned a deaf ear to the gossip, and still went his own way and did not change his original intention.

No, in the study, Li Dao once again chattered in front of Li Li.

"Wenchang, you just listen to your uncle's persuasion and marry six wives at one time, there is indeed no such precedent since the founding of our Han Dynasty! Now people are talking about your marriage all over the street, and there are people who say anything, and some people even scold and secretly throw stones and rotten vegetable leaves at my house. The uncle was able to hold on, but the servants were full of complaints, and there were many complaints in their hearts. Li Wei said with a bitter face.

"Haha!" Li Li couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Uncle, are you too soft-hearted, why does no one in my house dare to come and throw stones?" ”

Li Dao pretended to be angry and said, "Don't laugh first, be serious, uncle is talking to you about business!" That's what I thought, uncle. Li Xin, Hongchang and Dong Wan are the three daughters as wives, and the three daughters of Wufang, Cai Yan and Chen Yu are concubines, what do you think? ”

"Well, why did my uncle think that? Is it because Li Xin is the sister-in-law of the two heroes and one hero in Peach Blossom Village, Hongchang is the righteous daughter of Situ Wang Yun, and Dong Wan is the beloved daughter of Dong Xiangguo? Or is Cai Yan a widow, Chen Yu's family is in decline, and Dian Wufang is the daughter of a barbarian? Li Li frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice.

Li Wei knew that his nephew was unhappy, but he still had to say what he had to say. Seeing that the wedding date is tomorrow, if you don't talk about it now, it's too late to say anything after tonight!

"Wenchang, why don't you understand! Marrying a wife and taking a concubine is not a big deal, you see that the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty did not have three wives and four concubines, but only to you made people talk about it, why bother? Uncle knows that you love them very much, but now it's time to make a choice, so you can only wronged them. Speaking of which, isn't it just a name, you just need to change it. After getting married, you just need to pamper them extra and make up for it a little, and the matter will pass. You said to yourself, uncle, how many times have I persuaded you, and I have worn out my mouth for this, why are you still indifferent? ”

Li Wei's words can be described as serious and bitter, forcing Li Li to seriously consider and make a careful choice.

In fact, Li Li had already weighed this matter repeatedly in his heart. Take the determination of Li Xin as his wife, this is the decision made by Li Li after careful consideration. Although he claimed to let Dian Wufang, Cai Yan, Chen Yu and Li Xin and others discuss who would be the eldest woman on their own, in fact, he already had a case in his heart, and Cai Yan and other women were also very understanding, and finally pushed Li Xin out.

chose Li Xin as his wife, Li Li based on multiple considerations.

First of all, her brother Li Xuan is extraordinary, and his government affairs and resourcefulness are first-class, which can be called Li Li's most powerful arm.

Secondly, Teng Xiao and Teng Yu are her cousins, cousins and sisters, who broke bones and tendons. In addition, there are several middle-level generals in Peach Blossom Village who are also quite outstanding, among which Meng Chong is the most outstanding. Because of this, the people from Peach Blossom Village are also becoming more and more important in the Wuwei Army, which Li Li must not ignore, but should pay special attention to.

zuihou, and the most important point. Li Xin is not only outstanding in appearance and extraordinary, but also kind-hearted, graceful and fair, which is deeply appreciated by Li Li.

It was based on these considerations that Li Li finally decided to make Li Xin the main room and the master of the backyard.

Compared with Li Xin, in fact, Cai Yan and Dian Wuflaw are not inferior. But both of them are not suitable for the main room for one reason or another, and the same is true for Chen Yu and Ren Hongchang.

As for Dong Wan, who forcibly joined halfway, it stands to reason that she is the most suitable for the main room, but it is a pity that the person she wants to marry is Li Li. In Li Li's heart, anyone can be in the main room, but Dong Wan can't, no matter how good-looking she is, the heavenly girl can't go down to earth. The reason why she is most suitable for being the main room is because she has a father who leans towards the government and the opposition, and it is precisely for this reason that Li Li categorically can't let her be the main room. Otherwise, Li Li's hard work for more than a year will be in vain, and the negative losses will be incalculable, and it will even directly cut off his way to survive in the troubled times.

After combing through his thoughts in his mind, Li Li said to Li Dao with a straight face: "Uncle, your good intentions and affection are appreciated by my nephew. But I have already made up my mind about getting married, and I will definitely not change it. Regardless of whether other people have three wives and four concubines, or one wife and more than a dozen concubines, anyway, I only have one thought: that is, since others can have three wives and four concubines, then I can't marry six wives!

The reason I did this was actually very simple, it was just to give my woman the title of wife. In fact, there is still a distinction between them, they are not mixed up, and they will not fight openly and secretly, disturbing the peace of the family. My women may not always be so harmonious, and maybe they will fight each other one day, but I just need them to understand one truth, that is, I have never treated them badly, and I can give them what I can give.

As long as they can be happy, I will not be stingy with the place they deserve. Even if it is not tolerated by the world, I will not hesitate to do it. It's just a wife, so why bother?

This matter is so decided, and my uncle does not need to persuade him anymore. ”

"Alas, why are you still so stubborn! Well, since you insist on doing so, I won't say anything more about my uncle. But my uncle still has to tell you, only this once, not an example! Li Wei said with a sigh.

"Hehehe! Uncle is too worried, I have the six of them with me in this life, it's enough, where will I marry a wife and take a concubine! Li Li said with a smile.

Hearing this, Li Wei immediately shook his head and said, "What are you talking about?" Now that you have set up your own door, you should spread out your own branches, and the more children you have, the better. Uncle absolutely supports you to take a few more concubines and give birth to children for you, not to mention that you are romantic, I am afraid that there will be women who are devoted to you in the future. However, my uncle will definitely not support you to marry a wife again, and the woman who enters the door in the future can only be a concubine, and she must not be a wife. This matter is not negotiable, as long as your uncle is still alive in the world, he will not condone you to be so willful! ”

"Okay, my nephew will definitely do it, only this once, not as an example!" Li Li reassured with a smile.

Seeing that Li Li had made a promise, Li Wei's expression gradually relaxed, and he said with a smile: "Wenchang, Xiangguo will personally officiate the wedding for you tomorrow, and you must not be rude at that time." The squires that my uncle brought to you this time are all royal people who are proficient in etiquette, and you can learn from them later, which is also a big thing, and you must not slack off. ”

"Ahh Li Li screamed in surprise, and said helplessly with a bitter face: "Obey the order, let my uncle bother, my nephew must study hard." ”

Li Wei could see that his nephew's words were not right, so he decided to keep an eye here this morning until Li Li had fully learned before he went back. (To be continued)(To be continued......
