"Who is it?" Li Xiu didn't expect that Ma Master knew about this, which made him hurriedly ask, after all, the death of Zhang's father and son was too strange.

"Princess Tong'an!" Mr. Ma sighed at this time, and then he slowly spoke.

"How is that possible?" Li Xiu immediately said in shock when he heard Ma Ye's answer. In his impression, although Princess Tong'an had some shortcomings, she was still a very kind old lady in general and could not be linked to the murder.

However, as soon as he said that Li Xiu suddenly calmed down, because he suddenly realized that Princess Tong'an did have reason to kill Zhang's father and son. The reason was that Zhang Ju had provoked He'er. Although Li Xiu had already driven out of Chang'an, Princess Tong'an was never brave enough, and timid people would definitely be very cautious. Therefore, in order to completely eliminate the threat of Zhang's father and son to He'er's reputation, killing people to silence him is naturally the most appropriate way.

"You know, their Li family is not only powerful, but also not a woman who is good at men!" Seeing the change of expression on Li Xiu's face, Ma Ye smiled and said, "He once told Princess Guanghua about He'er. It was probably that Princess Guanghua told Princess Tongan again, but she didn't expect that the old lady was so cruel. For the sake of her granddaughter's reputation, she didn't even blink her eyes.

"Who said that our Xiuning is pretty good. If it were her, she would definitely not care about life like the eldest princess!" Li Xiu said very disagreeably when he heard Mr. Ma's words. Of course, his wife had to be maintained.

"Haha~, the princess is only so young woman in front of you, but you don't think about it. The princess on the battlefield was able to command thousands of troops, and it was far from enough to rely on kindness. When it comes to decisiveness in killing, the princess is not inferior to her brothers at all!" As for Li Xiu's words, Ma said with a laugh. He watched Princess Pingyang grow up since childhood, so naturally he knows Princess Pingyang better.

"This..." Li Xiu couldn't help but feel a little speechless when he heard this, because what Ma said was indeed true. In addition, as his husband, he also found that although Princess Pingyang was usually gentle and virtuous, whenever he encountered major events, especially when he was leading the army, he immediately seemed to have changed someone else, cold and inhumane, which made Li Xiu a little doubt whether his wife was a bit schizophrenia. Fortunately, as long as she didn't go to the battlefield, Princess Pingyang was normal.

"Okay, I won't talk much to you anymore. Qi Niang said it's boring to stay at home and asked me to take her to play in Qujiangchi. You don't have to wait for us for lunch!" Mr. Ma seemed very busy, and immediately patted his new clothes on his body, and after he tidied up his beard, he was about to leave.

"Qianniang and you go to Qujiangchi? Where is Hen'er?" Li Xiu felt something was wrong when he heard Ma's words, so he casually asked about Hener's whereabouts.

"Cough~, He'er didn't come today. I guess he was with the eldest princess?" Ma Ye coughed dryly when he heard Li Xiu's replies, and then he spoke, but his expression was a little unnatural when he spoke, and he quickly left after he finished speaking, not giving Li Xiu a chance to ask again.

"Qujiangchi? It's a good place to date!" Li Xiu couldn't help but whisper when he saw this, and then he showed a somewhat ambiguous expression. Unexpectedly, Hen'er and Qi Niang really got things done. If they continued to develop at this rate, they might have to drink the wedding banquet of Ma Ye and Princess Guanghua after the New Year.

The Spring Festival is coming soon, and Li Xiu's house is also very lively. In addition to preparing for the holiday, there are also many guests visiting each other every day. In fact, it is mainly to give gifts with favors. Li Xiu has never liked these things very much, so he is generally unwilling to meet with acquaintances. Of course, he can't meet so many guests at all. Moreover, these people know that it is difficult to see Li Xiu. They usually drink a cup of tea and leave after coming to the door, and there is no need for Li Xiu to meet.

However, on the afternoon of the 28th day, a guest who surprised Li Xiu came to visit. He went out to greet him in person because this guest was Wang Renbiao who had met twice before, the father of the girl who liked Xuanzang. At the same time, he also had an amazing son Wang Fangyi. Of course, Wang Fangyi is still just a young child now.

"Why is Brother Wang coming to my house today? Are you okay at home?" Li Xiu asked Wang Renbiao to sit down and serve tea, and then he said with a smile.

"Haha, in fact, I am here to meet the prince-consort today. On the one hand, I wish you New Year's greetings to the prince-consort in advance, and on the other hand, I say goodbye to the prince-consort!" Wang Renbiao smiled and said to Li Xiu at this time. Seeing his face full of spring breeze, he seemed to have encountered some happy event.

"Farewell? Brother Wang, where are you going?" Li Xiu couldn't help but look at Wang Ren in surprise and said in surprise.

"That's right. Some time ago, there was a vacancy in Qizhou, so Your Majesty appointed me as the governor of Qizhou and asked me to take office after the New Year!" Wang Renbiao said happily at this time. Although he was from a noble family, he had never been valued and could only hold a free position in the Ministry of Revenue. Now he finally had the opportunity to release himself, so he was naturally very happy.

"Qizhou? Why is it so remote?" Li Xiu frowned when he heard this. Qizhou was located in Hubei in later generations. Although Hubei was not remote in later generations, most of the south had not been developed during the Tang Dynasty. The court had weak governance over the other side, so it was not easy to be an official in the south.

"In fact, it is not particularly remote. At least it is much stronger than Yizhou, Zhangzhou and others. Moreover, the land in the south is fertile. As long as it is well managed, it will definitely become a prosperous place for my Tang Dynasty like the Central Plains in the future. It just so happens that I am not young anymore. If I don't become an official, I will probably have no chance in the future!" Wang Renbiao said with great satisfaction at this time.

In fact, Wang Renbiao also knew that some time ago, Princess Tong'an found her daughter Princess Guanghua, and her attitude towards him was no longer so bad, which gave him the opportunity to be an official, so he must seize this hard-won opportunity.

Seeing Wang Renbiao so happy, Li Xiu could understand his mood. After all, he was a scholar and wanted to make achievements. This time, he was released from office was his opportunity to show his talents, so he was so happy. Li Xiu was not good at saying anything about this, so he could only tell him to take care of his health. Wang Renbiao said that his wife and son would still stay in Chang'an and wait until he gained a foothold in Qizhou before taking them over, so he asked Li Xiu to take care of him during this period, and Li Xiu naturally agreed immediately.

The lively Spring Festival has finally arrived, followed by the even more lively Spring Festival. Unmarried men and women in Chang'an City are looking forward to this day. Married people also plan to take their families to enjoy the lanterns, but in this lively festival, some people's hair is almost white with worries.
