Not long after the afternoon, Doulu Qinwang came as promised. Princess Taiping received a notice from her subordinates and quickly sent her eldest son Xue Chongxun out to greet her. Li Tong was also a junior, and she couldn't be too arrogant after seeing this, so she walked out together.

The two of them stood in front of the gate for a while and saw Doulu Qinwang's carriage coming, driving a plain carriage with five or six attendants in front and behind. According to Doulu Qinwang's current time position, this ritual was already very simple.

"How dare you be so polite to Xunqing and Pingyang Gong!"

When Doulu Qinwang saw the two people in front of the gate, he stopped the carriage several meters away, and got off the carriage himself, which shows how cautious people were.

Li Tong and Xue Chongxun hurriedly stepped forward to support him and said, "Du Lu is the chief of the court and a good friend of the ancestral family. If you don't see a slow boy's insignificance, you should welcome him far away. Please ask Duke Lu to board the bus again. My aunt has been waiting in the residence for a long time."

After hearing this, Doulu Qinwang smiled and said, "You can walk along the streets with two Shi Liujun talents. This is an opportunity that the old people don't often have."

After hearing what he said, Li Tong and Xue Chongxun could only fall behind half of their bodies and follow Dou Lu Qinwang to other karma.

Dou Lu Qinwang was in a good mood. While walking, he turned around to ask Li Tong about Yang Zhirou's condition. In his words, he had already treated Li Tong as the son-in-law of the Yang family.

Li Tong was helpless about this, but he did not explain it too clearly. His current personnel relationships are not good at apart from his grandmother and grandson.

He has no title of king himself, and although his official position is considered high among his peers, he is not as eyed by the court officials like Doulu Qinwang. Apart from Yang Zhirou's relationship, he really has no other insensitiveness and can be used as a topic of discussion with each other.

In front of the door of the Bieye, Princess Taiping had already been downgraded to the ranks and treated each other. Seeing Doulu Qinwang walking, she complained that the young man was rude to treat the guests. After greeting each other, she entered the main hall together.

The Doulu family originated from the Xianbei Murong family. During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Murong family joined the Northern Wei Dynasty when the Later Yan was destroyed and was given a surname. After the Liuzhen Mutiny, they joined the camp of Yuwen Tai of the Western Wei Dynasty. In fact, they also belonged to the old nail household among the Guanlong nobles and had close relationships with the imperial sects of the two dynasties.

For example, Dou Lu Qinwang in front of him is still the grandson of Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian. There are many children in the clan, Princess Shang or Princess chose to be the princess. In terms of the essence, it may not be much worse than the Dou family, but the style of the family is very different, very low-key, not as hard-working as the Dou family.

Therefore, Wuzhou's life was very stable and was not very hostile to the Queen. As the head of the family, Doulu Qinwang was even quite trustworthy and almost at the highest position. It was precisely because of this that Princess Taiping valued this banquet so much, and acted more enthusiastically than Li Tong, the entrustor.

If possible, Li Tong really didn't want to deal with such an old fox. He was too inefficient. He had been sitting in Doulu Qinwang for nearly an hour and had not gotten to the topic. He wanted to draw the topic several times, but he was interrupted by Doulu Qinwang and went around. He just had a great time chatting with Princess Taiping's parents, and occasionally involved personnel related to Hongnong Yang's family.

Li Tong could also hear that Dou Lu Qinwang attaches great importance to his skewed relationship with Hongnong Yang. This is also a common problem among some elderly people in Guanlong. They are keen on building their small circles. Only by looking at what they think of their own people will they look up to.

One of the reasons why Li Tong's family was in trouble before was that the Guanlong family did not regard them as their own people. Even his son Li Xian might not be accepted by these people.

The fourth son of the Emperor can also reflect the progressive trend of the power of the couple Li Zhi and Wu Zetian from their respective in-law relationships. Although the eldest and second brothers are also in line with the famous clan, the wife's family can actually provide very little help. Until the third brother Li Xian, he married the Wei family of Jingzhao in the second marriage.

Looking at the lineup of the fourth brother's in-laws, it is simply luxurious. This also means that because Emperor Gaozong made Wu Zetian the queen, the Guanlong nobles who had always had a bad relationship finally bowed their heads and obediently sent their daughter to be wives and concubines.

During the Guangzhai period, the reason why Wu Zetian was able to easily abolish Li Xian and support Li Dan was not only because of his superior power skills, but also because the potential supporters behind Li Dan should not be underestimated. He used the power to fight and draw boards across the bridge, and played very smoothly.

Li Tong's father is no longer here, and his mother is from Jiangnan. Even if he was so arrogant because of his grandmother's favor, he was not very much seen by these Guanlong families. Therefore, Yang Zhirou's surrender to his daughter has a qualitative boost to his momentum, but this layer of benefit is not so easy to digest.

Doulu Qinwang had a very happy chat with Princess Taiping, but he did not completely ignore Li Tong. He took the time to smile at him during the conversation and said, "I just recently learned that the concubine in the mansion believed in Buddhism. It happened that there was a glass ancient Buddha statue in the mansion. I was greeted by someone to give it to the mansion. I would like to thank the concubine for her advice."

This was a sloppy word. After thinking about it, Li Tong realized that it was nothing more than using this to show that his grandmother gave the scriptures a few days ago, and the Dou Lu family in the palace had carefully treasured them and had already appreciated the profound meaning.

"Huida's relatives, I dare not say respect. Baoyu thanked Duke Doulu on behalf of Empress."

Li Tong bowed and smiled, and sighed in his heart. It is not easy for a living person to live in this world.

On the day of the ritual of the Yuan Dynasty, the former Empress Liu and the imperial concubine Dou disappeared. There were several eunuch palace officials who had followed the emperor's heir for a long time. Although this matter has not been widely spread in the outer court, Li Tong often went to and from the palace, and there were fixed sources of information in the inner court, and he had already known about it.

This time, Doulu Qinwang was probably also moved by this. He felt the crisis in his heart. He didn't dare to offend the Queen's close friends at this sensitive moment and wanted to be kind to others.

When Doulu Qinwang talked about this section, he and his aunt gave each other a sensible look, and finally got to the point.

"Alas, when Xue Jingshi Lidu was in my residence, he said goodbye. I knew that his job was involved in Xunqing. I also told him to ask Xunqing for more advice when he arrived in Xijing. Now that the disaster is caused by the incident, it is really sad."

Dou Lu Qinwang said this indirectly, but it was just an indirect explanation that Xue Jichang neglected Li Tong after he arrived in Xijing, not out of his instruction.

However, Li Tong also understood that without the support of this old fox, Xue Jichang might not have dared to treat him so arrogantly. Although he had faded out of the situation for a long time, this was the murder of assassination after all.

"Although I was in Xijing at that time, I had a few relationships with Yushi Xue, but I dared not discuss the person and his affairs lightly. But now, Pu Guo Gong is in trouble with me and it is hard to sit idly by me. People who are alive in this world may do things, but only have a "love and friendship". However, this matter is quite extensive and I dare not make a special purpose. I am so shameless that I ask Mr. Dou Lu today."

When Dou Lu Qinwang heard this, his face looked a little embarrassed, and raised his hand and said, "Xunqing's powerful words make people ashamed. The Censor Xue and our family have been private. Now that I am in trouble, I will certainly not sit idly by. Just now, the Prince of Wei returns to the capital today. After saying this, I will come to the residence to ask Qu Yin, and then I will ask Xunqing to go to the mansion to discuss good plans."

Speaking of this, he smiled a little more on his face and pointed at Li Tong and said, "There are more than just Xianggong Yang who praises people in the world for knowing others. In previous years, Xunqing was a jade branch in the temple, and his reputation was not in the world. Over time, the more he became more and more popular. Xiuge's eyes and ears were so proud that he could not sit in my guest hall. The young man in the door was afraid that he would laugh at the old man who could not be close to the interests and understand."

Li Tong was stunned after hearing this. Unexpectedly, this old and unruly greedy for him, but this should be just a polite word, so there is no need to take it seriously.

Princess Taiping, who was sitting on the other side, heard this and looked at her son, then glanced at Li Tong, but she didn't say anything after all.

Doulu Qinwang sat for a while and stood up to say goodbye. After sending the person away and returning to another career, Princess Taiping taught her son a lesson: "I want you to go out and go with your cousin. I hope that you can follow and think about it. Don't be careless because of your frivolous words and deeds. Let your mother be ashamed of being able to communicate with relatives, be able to make boastful words and dare to sell your children in front of others!"

Xue Chongxun was smart at this moment and pulled Li Tong and laughed: "I am not as clever as my cousin, but as long as I am willing to teach, my cousin will naturally know what I can do, right, cousin?"

Li Tong smiled after hearing this, and Princess Taiping pulled him again, carefully telling him about the affairs of the children of the Doulu family, and was very enthusiastic about Doulu Qinwang's ambiguous invitation.

At this time, there was also a conversation about Li Tong in the inner room.

I hurried back to Shendu from Xijing. Although I had been at home for a night yesterday, I was no longer young after all. Wei Yuanzhong was also tired when he met the saint today.

Faced with the confidant he promoted, Wu Zetian was easy-going and specially asked someone to add soft pads to Wei Yuanzhong's seat to make him feel more comfortable.

After talking about some military and national affairs, Wu Zetian changed the topic and smiled and said, "How many months have Wei Qing been in charge? I think there are many interactions with the people in Xijing. Shenzhi was in Xijing and had a very good reputation. I want to hear what Wei Qing saw and the people in Xijing are the true views of him."

After hearing this, Wei Yuanzhong felt a sense of caution between his eyebrows and eyes, and he lowered his head and pondered. His attitude was even more solemn than answering some major affairs of the court. After a while, he slowly spoke: "If Your Majesty asks about the talent of the matter, I will not dare to discuss right or wrong easily. Besides, Xunqing is in charge of the court, and what he does and what he sees, I don't think that this distant guest will make comments and comments."

After hearing this, Wu Zetian sighed: "There is rest for life, and I am here for a long time. I cannot avoid the vulgarity. This child is clever and able to entertain the public, so he will inevitably praise the simplicity of praise and praise. He is short-skinned and can distinguish the authenticity of the world. He still depends on his relatives to measure it. In the old year, people come to the capital, and they arouse anger on the street. A few days ago, he has been stingy with a strong affection and sensibility. Is it the only one who can match the world? "

After hearing this, Wei Yuanzhong's eyes flashed slightly, and then he said, "Xunqing does have extraordinary qualities, and even Your Majesty is deeply concerned about it, not to mention that the world is full of people. The emotions are obstacles, so they are not seen. Guanzhong is noble and powerful, so this is not the director of Xunqing. If they are strong, they will inevitably get disgusted with each other after a long time. Xunqing has good talents and interests, and there are naturally many people in the world who complement each other."

"I have made a decision to get you this."

After hearing this, Wu Zetian smiled and said apologized: "There should not be disturbed by the private affairs of the people. There are not many people who can complain about the opinions. Wei Qing should not be surprised."
