Li Su still has a high sense of awe for her father-in-law.

This has nothing to do with identity and status. It is purely the psychological shadow of the previous life that has been left in this life, and I can't help but be in awe.

The atmosphere of the Li family banquet was very harmonious, and the father-in-law and son-in-law were drinking and talking.

A happy conversation does not mean that they fully agree. According to previous life, Xu Jingshan is a typical straight male cancer, a patriarch, and has a very low opinion of women, even if the woman is his own daughter.

Li Su did not agree with this. Of course, Xu Jingshan's attitude is also considered to be the universal values ​​of the present. After all, the Tang Dynasty was an agricultural society. It is inevitable that women in the agricultural society have a low status, and everything depends on their strength to speak.

Seeing Xu Mingzhu pouting with dissatisfaction, a trace of grievance flashed in her eyes, Li Su thought for a while and said with a smile: "My father-in-law is very good. It is true that a woman is married to her husband, but... she can bring in thousands of miles to rescue her husband. Even if there are few people in the world, Mingzhu is a weak woman who travels back and forth thousands of miles to the Western Regions, and has experienced hardships all the way, and finally saved her son-in-law's life. Her father-in-law said his daughter's feat, and the son-in-law really felt sorry for Mingzhu..."

Xu Jingshan was stunned, then looked embarrassed, coughed twice, and looked quite uncomfortable.

Xu Mingzhu was also stunned for a moment, then looked at Li Su, the gratitude and sweetness in her eyes became stronger, and the gazes that were casting could pinch out water.

Li Su laughed and said, "The son-in-law is honest and he thinks everything he says. Because of this problem, he offended many people. Today, the son-in-law said that he is unlucky, so I hope his father-in-law will not blame him."

Xu Jingshan picked up the steps, took the opportunity and went down, and smiled at the cup, "It's me that I have lost my words. Mingzhu's child is really good. When I heard Mingzhu's actions of saving his husband from thousands of miles away, I and her mother didn't sleep well for half a month, and her mother even covered her face and cried every night. It's really a pain in this child..."

Li Su smiled and said, "The son-in-law also needs to thank his father-in-law and mother-in-law for being able to raise his daughter so well. Being able to marry Mingzhu is a blessing for the son-in-law throughout his life."

Xu Mingzhu lowered her head shyly, while Xu Jingshan stroked her beard and laughed slightly, looking at Li Su while laughing. She looked at her eyes with a bit of playful and teasing look.

Li Su was stunned for a moment, then felt a little embarrassed.

He understood the joke in his father-in-law's eyes. In order to withdraw from the Xu family, Li Su was determined to do everything he had done. He even went to the door to break the engagement face to face. The relationship between the two families was very stiff and cold for a while. Now he has married a virtuous wife. The couple has experienced storms and has experienced all the hardships and sweetness. The relationship is sweet, and it is like a bondage. When he recalled the divorce from the engagement, Li Su couldn't help but feel a little cheap...

Looking at his father-in-law's smile again, Li Su felt that when he looked at him, he not only felt a little cheap, but also very cheap...

If someone else looked at him with this kind of gaze, Li Su would have slapped him.

But this is the father-in-law...

Li Su had no choice but to suppress her rebellious thoughts and squeezed out a dry smile at Xu Jingshan.

"Father-in-law, please drink." Li Su raised his glass toast.

Xu Jingshan smiled and drank all the glass.

The wine used by the Li family to entertain guests is grapes, not their own spirits. The spirits are too strong. If you use them to entertain guests, Xu Jingshan will probably drink a few taels of water. The time when the Li family ends the banquet will set a new record in the Tang Dynasty.

The father-in-law and son-in-law came and went back and forth, and after half an hour of eating and drinking, the atmosphere was quite harmonious, of course. In the end, both of them were a little dizzy.

No matter how gentle the wine is, you will get drunk if you drink too much. Li Su has a deep understanding.

Xu Jingshan's eyes were already a little fluttering. He didn't look at Li Su when he spoke, but only stared at Li Su's side. Li Su gradually understood that this was not impolite. It was a heavy image of his father-in-law.

"A good son-in-law, what a good son-in-law! When I first saw you, I thought you would be a person in the future. As expected, you really became a person. What is rare is that you treat my daughter well. I never look down on our businessman. I am very lucky to have a son-in-law, and the Xu family is very lucky..." Xu Jingshan kept talking nonstop, his words were vague, and he looked at Li Su with drunken eyes.

Li Su was also a little dizzy and had a confused smile: "Yes, my son-in-law was ignorant at that time and had done many ridiculous things. She had a lot of father-in-law and did not blame her. The son-in-law was particularly touched..."

When Xu Mingzhu saw that both the father-in-law and son-in-law were a little drunk, she couldn't help but worry, but the atmosphere is so harmonious that she wanted to persuade her but couldn't help but speak. Deep down, she also hoped that her husband could get along better with her parents' family. This is actually the sense of security that women want.

Xu Jingshan laughed and waved his hand and said, "No, no, I didn't care. When you broke off the engagement, I didn't take it seriously. I just acted like a child to play. So when I saw you the second time, I... Huh? I was drunk. Where did I see you the second time?"

Li Su frowned and thought for a while, and said, "...a brothel in Jingyang County?"

Xu Jingshan slapped his thigh and laughed: "That's right! It's in that brothel!"

Xu Mingzhu's smile was already froze on her face, and she said with a cold expression: "Husband! Dad!"

The father-in-law and son-in-law turned to look at her at the same time. Seeing Xu Mingzhu's pretty face and a bad look on her face, the father-in-law and son-in-law were shocked, and she had woken up by eight points of drunkenness, and her body was sitting upright, and then... looked at each other.

Just now... it seemed that something was exposed...

Xu Mingzhu gritted her teeth and said, "The women in the brothel are not clean, my husband has always liked Jie. When did you go to the brothel?"

Li Su patted his head and recalled for a long time. He vaguely remembered that the brothel that went to Jingyang County was because of Wang Zong. At that time, the Tang army recovered Songzhou and the siege was very fierce. Wang Zong almost lost his life. Before the battle, he asked Li Su to take him to visit the brothel, which was considered a lifelong failure. Later, Li Shimin summoned Li Su back to Chang'an, and Li Su took the Wang brothers with him. When he arrived in Jingyang County, Li Sujian made a letter and took Wang Zong to the brothel for a while. At that time, Xu Jingshan pushed the door and met Li Su. This was the second time that the father-in-law and son-in-law met...

Seeing Xu Mingzhu's bad face, Xu Jingshan felt guilty. Now his daughter is not just a daughter, but also a wife of the imperial decree enthroned by His Majesty the Emperor. She has been the mistress of the marquis's mansion for several years. Before she knew it, she had raised some powerful people and majesty. She smiled when she had nothing to do. Once she got angry, her pretty face looked a little disgusted.

Seeing that his daughter was not good-looking, Xu Jingshan's thoughts turned and instantly made a choice.

"My daughter is right, what is the son-in-law going into the brothel?" Xu Jingshan said righteously and sternly.

Li Su's affection for his father-in-law suddenly disappeared and he was so angry that he gritted his teeth secretly.

The old guy who takes advantage of the situation and has no moral integrity...

Facing Xu Mingzhu's gaze, Li Su said leisurely: "Only after others say that men will be truly sensible. I entered the brothel for the ninth year of Zhenguan. At that time, I had not married you. A single man with a strong energy and handsome and romantic yet still had a family went to the brothel for a walk. Is there any problem?"

As soon as he entered the door, he went straight to Li Su and closed the door in the study room of the inner courtyard. Wang Zhi attached himself to Li Su's ear and muttered for a long time.

Li Su's face gradually became less beautiful.

"Is this matter... confirmed?" Li Su asked in a deep voice.

Wang Zhi nodded: "I'm sure, I'm satisfied with what I say. The prince's left commander He Jiliang, I also found him and tied him up and locked him up in a secret room in the East City..."

Li Suqi said: "The prince left leader He Jiliang... didn't he live in the Eastern Palace? Why did you tie him up?"

Wang Zhi smiled and said, "This matter was instructed by the prince, but He Jiliang was responsible for the implementation. Later, your family killed all twenty assassins in Taiping Village. The prince was worried about it, so he ordered He Jiliang not to leave the East Palace. However, I later found out that He Jiliang's family was also living in Chang'an City, so he swept his parents, brothers and sisters, and ordered his brothers to pass the call into the East Palace, lure him out, and catch him all in one go, haha!"

Li Su tskated and looked at him with disgust: "No culture! There is only one person in the community, how can you catch it all in one place?"

Wang Zhi was not ashamed and laughed and said, "Anyway, that's what it means, just you understand."

"Have He Jiliang asked?"

"He Jiliang is a man. No wonder he was able to be the chief lieutenant in the left hand of the prince. He started to be rebellious and cursed. It didn't work torture him. Finally, I took his parents in front of him, and he was convinced and took all his actions."

Li Su sighed: "It's a beast..."

The king said directly: "Not that, I secretly instructed the assassin to assassin my Uncle Li, so I should kill thousands of swords!"

Li Su glanced at him sideways and said, "What I mean by beast is you. Do you want shame to threaten other people's parents and force them to submit? What about shame? Where is moral integrity?"

Wang Zhi curled his lips: "It's not my parents, I can't control it. If it were you, would you have a better way?"

"I mocked his sister in front of him, and he wouldn't help but not believe it."

Wang Zhi hesitated for a moment and said, "Your method is less conscientious than me, right?"

Li Su thought about it, well, it seemed... he was right. In fact, neither he nor Wang Zhi's method was conscientious, and there was no limit.

So the two of them gave each other a contemptuous look, with extremely disgusted eyes.

…………

"Tell me, what did He Jiliang call? Why did the prince suddenly target me for no reason?" Li Su said lightly.

Wang Zhi sighed and said, "This time the prince is not targeting you. I heard a subordinate who has read a few days ago say that there is a strategy called 'Borrowing a knife to kill people', which is called the master's plan, which just happens to meet this matter..."

Li Su blinked: "So, am I that 'knife'?"

Wang Zhi said quickly: "No, you are that 'man', the 'man' who was killed by a knife."

"...You are so honest and have no friends."

Wang Zhi ignored him and continued, "The beginning of the matter was the same as we thought. That day, the King of Qi was beaten by His Majesty. When he left the palace, he happened to meet the prince. The prince and the King of Qi had always been disagreeable. Of course, the prince was even more disagreeable with you. This guy was not with anyone. He was the real friendless. Seeing that the King of Qi was beaten, the prince took the opportunity to provoke you and the King of Qi and lead the disaster to you. The King of Qi was very angry when he heard this, and left angrily. The trick was sold. Of course, the prince was very happy. So he returned to the East Palace and waited, waiting for the King of Qi to take revenge on you..."

"Who knew that after waiting for a long time, the King of Qi was silent. The prince gradually couldn't sit still. This was unreasonable!... Actually, according to me, the King of Qi was not stupid. He was really trapped after a few words of instigation. What's more, the person who instigated was the prince who had never been incompatible with him. No matter how stupid the King of Qi was, he would not be more careful. Besides, he had just been severely taught by His Majesty. When he was about to hang his eyebrows and pass the storm, how could he really fall into the prince's plan to retaliate against you?"

Li Su suddenly realized: "So that's it, so... when the prince saw that the King of Qi was not moving, he simply sat up and moved himself. He dispatched a group of assassins to Taiping Village to assassinate my father. These dead soldiers left no handle, but a manager in charge of the King of Qi's mansion was killed. With these clues, we led our eyes to the King of Qi. If it weren't for the information provided, we would have regarded the King of Qi as the real murderer behind the scenes. With my temper, this matter would inevitably be a big deal..."

A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and Li Su sighed: "Xiang Zhuang dances his sword, aiming to Pei Gong... The person the prince really wants to move is King Qi."
