Two hundred and seventieth chapters one less horizontal
The temperature began to warm up, and the trees on both sides of the road began to regain a little green. Li Jie, Liu Ying, Liu Ying and his son stood by the dock outside the Shuixi Gate, chatting while waiting for Li Jie's parents to arrive. Yesterday they received the news that today Li Zhu and his wife would come to the capital.
"Uncle, I heard that the martial arts school is going to pull the students to the north?" Li Jie asked Liu Ying with a smile. Although he was a martial arts school, he rarely went to martial arts since he came back, and he did not take over any actual affairs, because Li Jie thought it clearly when he accompanied Zhu Biao on a patrol. He and Liu Ying could not stay in martial arts school, otherwise it would definitely lead to suspicion in the future.
"Yes, General Feng believes that the training of the students has reached a certain level, and it will not be of much use to continue practicing like this, so it is time for them to really get in touch with the affairs of the army." Liu Ying nodded and said, the students in martial arts will all enter the army to become officials in the future, so it is necessary to get in touch with the army in advance.
"Have you chosen that place?" Li Jie asked again.
"I've chosen it, I'm in Juyongguan. Isn't Your Majesty going to prepare for the capital to move? The martial arts must also be moved there, so this time I plan to go with the students, go to Peking for a look, and find a place to build the martial arts." Liu Ying replied again. He was about to move the capital, and all the yamen were also preparing. After all, this was not a matter of one word, so the two-year preparation period was also very hasty.
"Where are you, cousin?" Li Jie also looked at Liu Yi next to him when he heard this.
"Of course I have to go, but don't worry, we will definitely wait until after your wedding before we can leave. After all, I don't want to miss your wedding!" Liu Yi also replied with a smile. The upcoming marriage of Li Jie and Zhu Yuning has been spread. After all, it is not a trivial matter for the royal marriage. The Imperial Heaven Supervision, the Ministry of Rites, etc. all need cooperation.
"Don't just talk about me, cousin, you're going to get married this year, right?" Li Jie also smiled and asked back. Liu Ying had been engaged long ago, but it was delayed because the woman had to mourn her mother for three years.
"Yes, but Yi'er will have to wait until this winter, and we should be back then." Liu Ying also sighed at this time. He got engaged to Liu Ying early in order to get his grandson as soon as possible, but he didn't expect something happened at the woman's house, which made him wait for another three years.
Just as Liu Ying finished speaking, several more boats were docking. Li Jie saw his parents standing on the bow of the boat at a glance, which made him wave excitedly and shouted: "Dad! Mom! We are here!"
Li Zhu and Mrs. Li at the bow of the boat also saw Li Jie and Liu Ying and his son, and immediately waved to them excitedly. When the boat stopped, the couple walked off the boat together. At this time, Aunt Zhao and Di'er also walked out of the cabin. Di'er screamed when she saw Li Jie, then rushed off the boat and plunged into Li Jie's arms.
Li Jie also hugged Di'er and walked around excitedly for a few times, and then found that after a year of not seeing him, Di'er had grown half of her head taller, and now she looked a bit like a big girl.
Li Zhu and his wife also got off the boat at this time. They first chatted with Liu Ying, and then asked someone to hold a chubby child. Only then did Li Jie remember that he had a younger brother, which made his Kong's face collapse.
"Jie'er, come and see your brother!" Mrs. Li happily greeted Li Jie at this time. In the past, Mrs. Li always blamed herself because she only gave birth to a son like Li Jie. Not only did she feel sorry for Li Zhu, but she also felt that Li Jie was also a little lonely and had no brother to help. Now, it's time to let Li Jie have a younger brother.
"Oh~" Li Jie agreed weakly, then walked up to look at his little brother. He saw that the little guy was white and tender, with big black eyes looking around curiously. Although he couldn't speak, the new environment made him wave his little hands excitedly. Liu Ying next to him couldn't help but take it and hug it in his arms.
"Mom, have you named me? If not, why not call me Li Ju!" Li Jie suddenly smiled and suggested. Since he learned that he had a younger brother, he has been thinking about giving his younger brother a profound name.
"Li Ju doesn't sound nice, she looks like a girl, and your father and I have discussed it. Your brother's name is Li Xun!" Mrs. Li said with a blank look when she heard the ghost name Li Jie gave him.
"Li Xun? Why do many people call him Li Gou?" Li Jie muttered. Xun is not only a surname, but also a vanilla name. It is said that it will make people beautiful after being persuaded.
"What did you say?" Mrs. Li's ears were pointed, and her eyebrows immediately stood up and questioned.
"It's nothing. I said the names you gave me are really nice, they are really better than me!" Li Jie hurriedly said with a smile.
"You are smart. If you dare to talk nonsense in the future, let's see how I deal with you!" Mrs. Li immediately taught Li Jie a lesson, which made Li Jie sigh again. It seems that women are indeed fickle animals. If you have a younger son, don't have the older son!
The carriage was ready long ago. Li Jie and his family got on the carriage and returned home with a chatter and laughed along the way. On the way, Li Zhu and his wife also asked about Li Jie's marriage. It was because they received a letter from Li Jie that they hurried to the capital. After all, Li Jie will get married in more than a month, and as parents-in-law, they must also handle it.
Li Jie took the opportunity to ask about his parents' situation in their hometown, but Li Zhu and his wife said that they would touch their younger son Li Xun whenever they were old. After all, they had a son and had been revolving around this son for more than a year.
Li Jie was bored, but he didn't dare to show it, so he had to try his best to look interested. After finally returning home, the family had already prepared a sumptuous welcome banquet. Liu Ying and Liu Yi were not outsiders, so they sat with Li Jie and their family while eating and chatting, and finally talked about Li Jie's marriage.
Marrying a princess is not a trivial matter. The woman has a host of the Ministry of Rites, and the man’s family must be prepared. As the hostess of the family, Mrs. Li needs to worry about many things, but she has no experience after all, and she is worried that she will have any omissions. There is only one Aunt Zhao around her, but neither of them has much experience.
"Mom, why not do this? If you can't handle it alone, why not invite Aunt Wu. She is also a princess and must have experience!" Li Jie suddenly suggested that Princess Lin'an has experience in getting married, so it is definitely correct to ask her to help.
"This is a good method. I just happened to go to Jiangpu with your father. I would like to ask the princess to come and help host the wedding!" Mrs. Li clapped her hands and said excitedly when she heard this.
"If the princess comes, can you invite the fifth brother to stay for a few days?" Li Zhu suggested anxiously at this time. On the way back, he knew that Li Qi was sick again, which made him very worried. If only Princess Lin'an was invited, then no one would take care of Li Qi, so it would be better to invite him together, but this matter requires the palace to nod.
"It should be possible. I went to the palace to ask His Majesty for love these days. After all, this kind of happy event is the fifth uncle, and he should be there no matter how you say it!" Li Jie pondered for a moment and nodded immediately and said, "I am going to get married, both in love and in truth, Li Qi should be there, so he is confident that he can persuade Lao Zhu to agree.
"That's great. Let my fifth brother stay for two more days, so I can spend more time with him!" Li Zhu also said excitedly when he heard this. Li Jie was not the one he was most worried about in the capital, because he knew that Li Jie was responsible for his work and generally nothing happened. On the contrary, after Li Qi was demoted to Jiangpu, he was always in a depressed mood and his health became worse and worse, which was really worrying.
After the banquet, Liu Ying and his son bid farewell and left, Li Jie arranged for their parents to rest. It was just afternoon, but Zhu Yunxiu actually came to find him. As soon as he met, he immediately said excitedly: "Go quickly and go quickly, the show is about to begin!"
"What a good show?" Li Jie was stunned for a moment and did not react. Recently, he and Zhu Yunyu met frequently, mainly because they were busy with cement. The Ministry of Industry sent many officials to learn how to cook cement from them. In fact, it is very simple to cook. The key is that if you want to produce it on a large scale, you must try your best to save costs. In recent days, Li Jie and the officials of the Ministry of Industry have been discussing this matter.
"Why did you forget it? Of course it was the Three Kingdoms business!" Zhu Yunxi replied speechlessly. It was Li Jie who told him to do this, but he was fine. In the blink of an eye, he forgot about it.
