When Li Sanjian hurriedly left Duan Wang Zhaoji's room, he met a man at the door. This man was tall, with broad shoulders and a relatively tall figure. He looked about fifty years old, but his skin was fair and red, and he had a beard and hair.

They are all as black as ink, just like an eighteen-year-old boy, making it impossible to judge his true age. His eyebrows are thick and neat, and under the broad thick eyebrows, there is a pair of shrewd and deep eyes, and his clothes are neatly dressed.

It's neat and spotless, which makes people feel good about it.

Although Li Sanjian did not know this person, he saw that he had extraordinary bearing. He was probably an important figure in the palace, perhaps an important minister of the imperial court. When Li Sanjian thought of this, he could not help but stop and bow his head respectfully.

I stood aside and waited for him to go in first as a sign of respect.

Li Sanjian's time in Prince Duan's Mansion was not short, and he felt very puzzled that he did not know this person. However, Li Sanjian then thought about it and thought that it was impossible for him to know everyone who interacted with Prince Duan Zhao Ji.

When the middle-aged man passed by Li Sanjian, he glanced at Li Sanjian and Chudie who was following behind him. After the flowing clouds, he stopped and said with a slight smile: "Li Sanjian and Li Hanren from Lingnan?"

"It's me, father-in-law, do you...recognize me?" Li Sanjian raised his head slightly and asked in surprise.

"The leader of the Lantern Festival, who pioneered the method of sentence reading, Guizhou Jieyuan, and young heroes, I have heard about them for a long time." The middle-aged man smiled and said: "I saw you today, and it is true that he is a handsome young man!"

"My father-in-law complimented me so much that I am ashamed of myself. I haven't even asked my father-in-law for his name yet." The middle-aged man praised him so much that Li Sanjian's favorable impression of him doubled. After all, who wouldn't want to hear compliments?

"My surname is Cai." The middle-aged man touched his beautiful beard and replied.

Her surname is Cai? When Li Sanjian heard this, he immediately thought of the timid Cai Rongxue. I wonder how she is doing now? Has she returned to the capital safely? I wonder if the two will have intersections in the future.

Li Sanjian nodded and was about to say a few more words to him when the old man of the palace had already walked out of the gate and said to the middle-aged man: "Please come in, Mr. Cai. Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man nodded and said to Li Sanjian: "Whenever I have the opportunity to talk with you in detail in the future, I will go in first."

"Please, sir!" Li Sanjian bowed and said.

The middle-aged man then took another careful look at Li Sanjian, and then followed the old man of the palace and walked in. He walked so lightly that it was impossible to tell that he was a man in his fifties.

"Let's go!" Li Sanjian glanced at Chudie and Liuxia, who were closely following him on the left and right, and said helplessly.

There was one person when he came and three when he returned. Li Sanjian still didn't know how to explain to his mother, how to tell her, how to arrange the two girls...

My fair lady, what a gentleman! Li Sanjian has never touched a woman, whether in his previous life or this life. With such beauty in front of him, it would be a lie to say that Li Sanjian is not tempted, but when he brought the two women home like this, Li Sanjian felt

His face was slightly hot, and at the same time he felt a little sorry for Li Qingzhao, who had already made a personal decision with him for life.

Before marrying Li Qingzhao, he brought two women home. Who did he become? No matter how shameless Li Sanjian was, he felt extremely ashamed at this time.

Li Sanjian also knew that many people in this world were accompanied by concubines before they got married. Women who were not even concubines were accompanying them, such as maids, maids, etc.

But when things came to pass, Li Sanjian was a little unable to accept it. If so, Li Sanjian would

I couldn't raise my head in front of Qingzhao.

No, the two girls must be properly accommodated. How about giving them away again? Li Sanjian thought to himself.

But to whom should I give it? Could it be given back to Duan Wang Zhao Ji? Or to Shankui, a sophomore in high school? Li Sanjian felt extremely embarrassed at this time.

At the same time, Li Sanjian couldn't bear to give them away. The two women were people, not goods. How did they feel about sending them away? Maybe they had been numb for a long time, but Li Sanjian couldn't bear it in his heart.

.

Chu Die, Liu Xia looked around with beautiful eyes, looking at Li Sanjian in surprise. He said to leave, why did he stand still? And he looked embarrassed?

If it were anyone else, he would have shown a hungry wolf-like attitude and would have taken the two girls home and laid them on the bed to enjoy the romance...

"Master...?" Chudie tugged on Li Sanjian's sleeve and asked in surprise.

"Oh, let's go." Li Sanjian calmly took back his sleeve and said, "Don't call me master anymore. How can a humble person be worthy of the word master?"

"So...how should the slaves call you, master?" Liu Xia asked.

"Call me Third Brother..." Li Sanjian said as he walked.

"Third brother?" Chudie asked in surprise.

"Third brother..." Chudie and Liuxia then shouted in unison, making Li Sanjian's face red and his legs weak, and he almost fell to the ground...

"Which one of you is older?" Li Sanjian calmed down and asked.

"Nunu, Chudie is the elder sister, and Liuxia is the younger sister of the Nu family." Chudie replied after hearing this.

"How to distinguish?" Li Sanjian asked again.

"We'll find out when we get back." Liu Xia replied shyly after hearing this.

"Why is this?" Li Sanjian turned to look at Liu Xia and asked.

"Third brother, don't ask, the slave family really can't say anything." Liu Xia replied with a blushing face.

Li Sanjian nodded, did not ask any more questions, and walked quickly to his residence.

Li Sanjian still has one important thing to ask his mother, and that is the matter of Li Qingzhao.

Duan Wang Zhao Ji mentioned Li Qingzhao before, which made Li Sanjian feel very puzzled. What happened to Li Qingzhao? Did something happen to her?

When Li Sanjian returned to Beijing this time, he had already planned to go to Li Mansion to propose marriage.

........

As expected, after Li Sanjian brought the two girls back to their residence, Fu Erniang was shocked.

"Slaves, please pay your respects to the old lady." Chudie and Liuxia Yingying bowed to Fu Erniang, and Fu Erniang was caught off guard.

The two sisters, Chu Die and Liu Xia, came from humble backgrounds. After they were abducted and trafficked at an early age, there were dedicated personnel to train them in aspects such as form, language, music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and how to please men. After all, the two girls were in the palace.

After staying for many days, they usually come into contact with dignitaries, noble ladies and daughters. They live in Qi and nourish their bodies. Therefore, the two women are now beautiful, gentle, chaste and elegant, no less than the ladies of the world.

The clothes and ornaments on the two women were also extremely noble and gorgeous. At this time, they suddenly saluted Fu Erniang, which made Fu Erniang at a loss. She stretched out her hand to help the two girls, but she was afraid of insulting the two beautiful ladies, so she stretched out her hand.

He wiped it hard on his apron, but still didn't dare to touch the two women. He just supported the two women and said: "Hey, hey, I can't do it, I can't do it. Get up quickly. What kind of lady is this?

?If you don’t mind, just call me second mother.

?”

"Second mother..." the two women pursed their lips and smiled.

"Come in." Fu Erniang then glared at Li Sanjian and said.

"Mom, what's the matter? The child has to go to the Gongyuan Courtyard tomorrow and wants to rest early." Li Sanjian muttered.

"It's still daylight, why are you sleeping? Come in quickly, I won't delay you for long." Fu Erniang said loudly to Li Sanjian with her hands on her hips.

Li Sanjian had no choice but to follow Fu Erniang into the inner room.

"Ouch, mother... mother... mother... please be gentle, it hurts..." After entering the inner room, Li Sanjian was grabbed by Fu Erniang's ear...

"Where did it come from?" Fu Erniang grabbed Li Sanjian's ear and asked.

"It's a gift from King Duan, but there's nothing I can do about it," Li Sanjian replied with a grimace.

"Don't do this to me." Fu Erniang tightened Li Sanjian's ears again and said, "Can't you refuse it as a gift from the prince? You have been a philanderer since you were a child. Don't you know this?"

Nothing like your daddy."

"Mom, I really can't blame the kid for this matter. The kid refused again and again, but His Highness is still the same, and the kid is helpless. Besides, it's not like you don't know His Highness's temper. The things he gives away are just like the water that is poured out.

, is there any reason to take it back? If the child really makes strong remarks at this time, it will definitely cause His Highness's displeasure." Li Sanjian said sweetly.

Fu Erniang's face softened slightly after hearing this, and then she said worriedly: "But how can we feed them?"

Li Sanjian couldn't help laughing when he heard this. Chudie and Liuxia must have monthly money, and the monthly money, clothing, jewelry, utensils, etc. must be handled by the palace, and Fu Erniang and others don't need to worry about it.

However, Li Sanjian then thought about it and thought that he did not want to live a life of being dependent on others and would leave the palace sooner or later. When that day came, how would Chu Die and Liu Xia be settled?

What a headache, Li Sanjian sighed inwardly.

"Why are you laughing?" Fu Erniang asked when she saw Li Sanjian smiling and glared at Li Sanjian.

"Mom, didn't you ask me to find you a daughter-in-law? Didn't I find her for you?" Li Sanjian said with a smile.

"Nonsense." Fu Erniang slapped Li Sanjian and said, "Where can anyone find a wife like this? Nacai, ask for her name, Naji, ask for an appointment, welcome her in person, none of the 'six etiquettes' should be missing, that's all

Now that you've entered, what's going on?"

Since Fu Erniang came to the capital, she has learned a lot about the wedding rituals of the Han family, so she is relatively familiar with it.

"It's better to do this." Li Sanjian thought for a while and then said: "The etiquette department has tried it, and the children are planning to leave the palace. When the time comes, we will leave, and we will just leave them to stay in the palace."

"But... aren't they so pitiful?" Fu Erniang immediately softened her heart after hearing this.

Although Fu Erniang is from Li, she also understands that a woman of low status who is abandoned will end up in tears all day long and suffer unspeakably.

"But no matter what, I can't let my child offend Qing'er." Li Sanjian sighed after hearing this.

Li Sanjian suddenly mentioned Li Qingzhao at this time, which immediately made Fu Erniang uneasy. Then he cautiously said to Li Sanjian: "Sanlang, there is something I want to tell you. You must not be sad."
