238. Princess Taiping? Meng Po soup?
Li Huguo was awarded the fifth rank, and this level is probably higher than that of a city lord. After all, a ninth rank can become the county magistrate of a county, and the current scale of Longcheng is no different from that of a county.
Even Nalan Meng, who was previously named the lord of Nalan City, had only the eighth rank. Now that Li Hugo has become a fifth rank official in one fell swoop, there is no doubt that he has changed his identity. Now even if the five major families see him, they have to consider their identity and then make a decision on Li Hugo.
Of course, the official rank is just a weak one. If Li Hugo can become a cabinet minister, it would be equivalent to glorifying his ancestors.
The cabinet ministers of Haotian Kingdom are somewhat different. Other cabinet ministers of the court are cabinet ministers. However, if they become cabinet ministers in Haotian Kingdom, they are equivalent to being part of the Haotian Shenzong.
After all, Haotian Kingdom is a large sect, wearing the cloak of the country.
However, it is also very difficult for the cabinet ministers of Haotian Kingdom to be aware of the third rank as the threshold for entry.
For ordinary people, the fifth grade is already soaring, and for Li Hugo, the fifth grade is already very good. After all, he has no grade before.
The emperor nodded to the eldest prince, as if he was hinting at something. Li Yuguo saw it and didn't dare to speak. At this time, the eldest prince said, "I don't know how many wives and concubines my third brother is in the family now?"
"There are three families." Li Hugo said.
The eldest prince was overjoyed and said, "Okay, since that's the case, I have a princess who is about fourteen years old and is in his youth. If my third brother does not abandon him, it's better for us to marry him."
Hearing this, Li Yuguo's heart sank, and at this time Ji Wushuang sent a voice in Li Yuguo's ear: "As soon as you enter the court, you will be appointed to the fifth rank, and the emperor is not at ease with you. Granting your daughter to you is also a guard against you. Send a princess to be your wife to monitor you. You cannot refuse, otherwise it will cause trouble. In the current royal family, there are only five princes, but there are thirty-two princes. And this princess is about fourteen years old, and I am afraid that she is the famous Princess Taiping..."
"Princess Taiping?" Li Huguo browned tightly because in his impression, he also wrote about Princess Taiping. This is a princess with a good relationship with the eldest prince, but this is not a princess, but he can only be regarded as the eldest prince's cousin, because he is the daughter of the eldest prince's uncle's family. This girl is born with beauty, but the queen likes her deeply, so the queen named her Princess Taiping.
This girl is extremely loyal to the royal family. It can be seen that this woman must be a chess piece placed by the emperor by her side, and the eldest prince is nominally his eldest brother, but in fact he is not very at ease with him.
If Li Yuguo refused at this time, she would probably only cause trouble. As Ji Wushuang said, she would be in trouble.
Li Hugo gritted his teeth: "I... thank you Lord Long's kindness, but..."
"But?" The emperor's face showed anger and he said, "I respect you, and then I will marry your beloved daughter to you. Do you think you are unwilling to accept it?"
"Your Majesty, I am very grateful, of course. But I said that even if Tianlang City is moving now, there is no place to live in a fixed place. The princess married too early, and she is afraid she will suffer. After all, the journey is exhausted, and Princess Taiping is a body of golden branches and jade leaves. If she is good or bad, I will not afford to be guilty." Li Huguo refused in another way, and she was playing with her words very reasonably.
The emperor nodded and stroked his beard: "Well, let's take you to rectify Longcheng and discuss this marriage..."
Li Yuguo breathed a sigh of relief. Now the three girls in the family have enough for him to eat a pot. If he adds one, wouldn’t he have to make a fuss? And Princess Taiping is the emperor’s eyeliner. If she is brought by her side, she may have to be monitored in the future. Then if she finds some treasure, how can the emperor let it go?
It is the dream of ordinary men to be able to marry the emperor's daughter, but Li Hugo doesn't think so, because Li Hugo thinks that Princess Taiping is too young, and her mental age is thirty-year-old uncle. He has no interest in such a young girl. The second is that Li Hugo will focus all his attention on the opportunities around Longcheng next, and will never allow others to disturb him.
The eldest prince said, "General Li thought carefully. Indeed, the pain of moving is not something that ordinary people can bear. From Tianlang City to Longcheng, there are eight hundred miles in front and behind. It is impossible to walk in ten days or half a month. Moreover, when you arrive in Longcheng, it will be a mess. If my baby girl is allowed to roll around in this mess, I will be unbearable."
"If there is nothing to do, I will take my leave first. After all, I have to clean up the details of Nalan City and repay His Majesty for his income and workshop situation!" Li Hugo said.
"Okay, then you go back." The emperor smiled slightly. When he met for the first time, he didn't hate or like Li Hugo, but he was still a little satisfied when he saw Li Hugo's humble words.
Li Huguo left now, but there was Ye Qiong standing outside the hall. This time, Ye Qiong made a plan to siege the city, and the next step was the emperor's personal ruling, and then he would have a drink.
Li Hugo and Ye Qiong passed by, without saying hello. Ye Qiong held the crutch and looked at Li Hugo with a grimace. He remembered the hatred of eating shit before. He hated Li Hugo so much that his teeth were itchy. Li Hugo left with his back to him. If it weren't for the palace, he really wanted to stab Li Hugo in the back: "Go away, don't be hit by a car."
"Thank you, please beg yourself for good luck." Li Hugo glanced at him, "I wish you luck."
"You..." Ye Qiong gritted his teeth, but it was difficult to do. The guards around him were looking at him.
Li Huguo decisively left the hall, and at this time he saw a subtle singing sound from the royal garden in the distance. He couldn't help but walk over and looked carefully. But there was a hazy girl playing the piano next to the pool water.
He looked pretty and charming, fair-skinned, as if he could get out of water. He was about fifteen or sixteen years old, and he looked quite familiar.
Li Hugo took a look at it more, but the girl started to laugh: "Li Hugo?"
"You know me?"
"Of course I know you. I heard that you have outstanding literary talent. If I play the piano, how about you writing poetry?" said the girl.
"Okay." Li Hugo raised his eyebrows and said he was not in a hurry to leave. He first looked at the identity of this girl.
I could only hear the sound of the piano, like a song and a cry, and there was a sorrow hidden in it. I didn't think it was played by such a young girl.
Li Hugo's eyes rolled and said:
"It's as snow on the mountain, as bright as the moon among the clouds. I heard you have two intentions, so I came to make a decision.
Today’s drink party, the water head of the ditch in Mingdan, and the water flows from east to west on the ditch.
I am sad and sad, and I don’t need to cry when I get married. I wish I could be a person who is wholehearted and never get along with me.
How is the bamboo pole scattered, how is the fish tail scattered? Men value spirit, so why use a money knife to make it!"
The girl was stunned, she covered her mouth and chuckled: "I wish to win the heart of one person, and I will never be separated from each other. You are so neat that you copied and copied, Zhuo Wenjun's white-headed chant."
As soon as these words came out, Li Yuguo's heart exploded. You must know where Zhuo Wenjun is in this world. Perhaps few people know about this white-headed chant, but this girl knows about this white-headed chant?!
Who is she?
"I don't know who Zhuo Wenjun is, nor do I know what Baitou Yin is. This is what I heard from a teahouse where I sing books." Li Hugo said quickly.
"Li Hugo, do you remember...what did you forget to drink?" the girl said again.
Li Yuguo was shocked. He remembered clearly that he had avoided Mengpo soup. At that time, Mengpo chased him and was kicked down by Niu Tou Horse Face. This girl actually knew about not drinking Mengpo soup?
Li Hugo said, "Are you Princess Taiping?"
"Oh? Do you know me?" She was surprised.
Li Hugo looked at her and then moved his eyes down: "As the name of people, huh, Taiping... Princess Taiping is like a vegetable chopping board." Li Hugo said seriously.
When the girl heard this, her pretty face changed: "You, you are looking for death!"
Li Hugo smiled and said, "See you back..."
As he said that, Li Hugo left quickly. Li Hugo seemed to be calm, but his heart was already turbulent. What is the origin of this Princess Taiping? According to what the eldest prince said, she should be her cousin, but why did she know these things?
