Chapter 48 Receive Gifts
When Li Yuhan saw Chang E, he was stunned for a moment, then stood up and raised his hand to hold his fists: "This girl..."
"Bah, who is the girl?" Chang E raised her eyebrows and looked at the man holding Amu. She had a slender figure and handsome facial features. There was a deep gully between her eyebrows. After seeing her, her expression was a little unnatural. She looked obsessed with martial arts, without caring about the world, but she had always had some obsessions... the old bachelor.
Li Yuhan was choked and didn't know how to answer the conversation. He turned to look at Chen Ziqi.
Chen Ziqi stood up and introduced, "This is my king's mother, Concubine Yue." Because of Chen Ziqi's friendship with the new emperor, after Emperor Zhenglong's death, Tiande gave Chang'e the title of Concubine.
"Uncle, this is my mother." Amu said excitedly, running over to hold Chang E.
"It turns out that it is the Empress of the Concubine, it's rude," Li Yuhan bowed and bowed, "I'm Amu's uncle, Li Yuhan."
When Li Yuhan heard the name "Mother", he was a little surprised. He thought that Amu had a good relationship with Chen Zi, so he followed him here, but he didn't know that he had recognized Concubine Yue as his mother.
Uncle... Chang E frowned, took Amu to the side, and whispered: "Is he really your uncle?"
"Um." Amu nodded honestly.
"Does he want to take you away?" Chang E turned around and asked in a low voice. Before Amu could answer, she started to curse, "I don't have a conscience, I don't want my mother when I see my uncle, right? I have raised you for seven years, and it turns out that it is a son raised by someone else!"
"No!" Amu shook his head vigorously, "I won't go with my uncle."
Dan Yi crawled out of her clothes and looked at Li Yuhan. This man had a very high internal strength, and he should have heard clearly what the mother and son said, and suddenly felt a little funny.
Chen Ziqi also thought of this and glanced at Li Yuhan's expression. He was really embarrassed. He coughed lightly and said, "This matter is a long story. Amu entered the palace at the age of three. Those palace ladies treated him harshly and could not eat enough. The original fat man was so thin that he was a bone..."
He said the past few years with ignorance. In Chen Ziqi's mouth, Amu lived a miserable life. It was because he smelled sadness and saw him crying. In order to bring Amu over, he went through hardships and made many extraordinary achievements to help his mother get promoted. Finally, he was qualified to raise another prince. He took Amu to his side and worked hard for several years before he raised his original body of fat.
After teaching his younger son a lesson, Chang E turned around and saw her little turtle start bragging again, without revealing it, and sat down in the main seat.
Li Yuhan was very moved when he heard this, and stood up and gave a full gift to Chang E: "Thanks to your care over the years, Li thanked me here."
"He is my son, I should raise him, I don't need to thank you." Chang E pulled Amu, who was trying to come forward to support his uncle, and glared at him.
Amu scratched his head, not knowing what to do.
"Hey, you don't have to be so polite." Chen Ziqi took the opportunity to step forward and support him.
"I haven't thanked the prince yet." Li Yuhan said politely.
"You are Amu's uncle, that's my uncle. If you call me Ziqi from now on." Chen Ziqi hit the snake and rode his stick and directly climbed onto his relatives, and recognized his uncle in a few words.
"Okay." The uncle of the Li family was still a little happy.
"Uncle, sit down and say," Chen Ziqi called out his uncle very casually, "I saw a group of people from the Lushan Sword Sect outside the Land Temple the day before yesterday. Are they all your disciples?"
"It's my senior brother's disciple." Li Yuhan said gently. He is the youngest disciple of the head of the Lushan Sword Sect. He has been in the school for seven years and has not yet begun to accept disciples.
Chen Ziqi followed the conversation and asked about Suxin Sect. But it turned out that several disciples from Changjian Sect saw that the female disciples of Suxin Sect were beautiful in the restaurant, so they joked a few times, and were heard by Zhao Surou, who was one step later. Zhao Surou was a person who could not tolerate sand in her eyes, and killed two people with disagreement.
There is a reason for the matter, and both sides are wrong. Zhao Surou is an elder, and it is reasonable to teach the younger generation a lesson, but she did too much and killed people. In the end, the Lushan Sect mediated and Su Xin Sect paid 10,000 taels of silver for the Changjian Sect, so the matter was settled.
"Hey, can you still extort money?" Chen Ziqi's eyes lit up. Unexpectedly, the disputes in the world could be resolved with money. He beat his chest and stamped his feet for a while. He would have not left if he had known it. He recognized his uncle on the spot and asked his uncle to make the decision, asking Su Xinzong to compensate him with some money.
Li Yuhan pursed his lips and chuckled.
After chatting for a morning, Chen Ziqi had already discussed with his new uncle and went to Lushan Sect with him to visit the head of Lushan. As for Amu's issue, Chang E refused to give in.
"Not to mention the kind of fartfulness of this kind of person who is not a martial arts master. Follow you to Lushan and designate to be bullied," Chang E said, "If you miss your nephew, go to the palace to see him. I won't stop him, but I will take him away, let alone the door or window!"
Amu was protected by Chang'e, and he was full of joy. Because Chang'e often reminded him of his uncle, he was always worried that one day his uncle came to him and his mother would return him to his uncle. Unexpectedly, he could be protected by his mother like his brother.
"Uncle the emperor said that my bones should not be used to learn martial arts," Amu said glutinously, "I, I want to follow my mother."
Li Yuhan sighed: "Well."
Chen Ziqi personally sent his new uncle out, and many pedestrians in front of the door saw this scene. The three-stacked sword spikes of the Lushan School were easy to identify, and the news reached the ears of the prefect on the same day.
The prefect was born in the Sword Alliance, so he naturally heard of Li Yuhan's name. The Lushan Sect's rare genius is now the most valued disciple of the Lushan Sect. The vassal king who thought he had no backing actually had a relationship with the popular people of the Lushan Sect.
"I heard that when King Jian called him uncle." The person who reported the news said.
The prefect who could not sit still went to the royal palace with a gift.
This time, Chen Ziqi was not in a hurry to see him, and left the person in the foreground and played with birds in the study.
"Shen Chicken, I'm so short of money," Chen Ziqi raised his hand to touch the tail feathers of the little red bird, "Your tail looks a bit like the shen bird phoenix."
Danyi raised her head and walked around the table with a step, proudly showing his hair.
"If you sell it, it will probably be worth a lot of money." Chen Ziqi pinched the tail feather that passed by in front of him, as if considering whether to pull it off and sell it for money.
The little red bird tweeted in horror, jumped to the side quickly, trying to hide its tail.
"Silly bird, are you teasing you." Chen Ziqi smiled and flicked his butt. This little thing was very fond of this hairy baby. When he was sleeping in his arms, he had to straighten his tail first, for fear of being pressed. If he really pulled it out, he would probably lose the favor of the gods.
He casually opened the "Demon God Collection" at hand and found records about the phoenix. He used to think that the divine chicken was a chicken that never grew up. When he saw the tail feather, he realized that it might be really the legendary divine bird. After all, the phoenix and dragon are worshipped in Zhanghua Palace.
The book is painted with a white phoenix picture, with two feathers growing on the top, and the elder is like a flowing cloud and wind; the tail feather is slender, the feather eyes are like peacocks, and the feather roots are
It has neat short hair, which is much more dignified and refined than peacock feathers.
Let’s look at the records about the phoenix again, and the slender and fair fingers stayed on a line of words.
Wutong, bamboo... Danyi, who lives in Wutong Forest and eats bamboo rice appears in front of him. A ridiculous idea suddenly flashed through his mind.
"Prince, the prefect has been waiting for a long time." Fuxi came over to remind the time.
Chen Ziqi put down the book in his hand, picked up the little red bird and stuffed it into his clothes, raised his chin, and went to the front hall with a arrogant look.
The prefect, who had been waiting for more than an hour, walked around the hall, feeling uneasy. I thought it was my attitude angering the prince last time, so I must make up for it this time.
"Mr. Zeng has been waiting for a long time." Chen Ziqi said casually and sat down on the main seat. The maid came up to pour tea, took a sip, and then put it down with a bang, as if she disliked the tea, but also seemed to be impatient with the person in front of her.
The prefect Zeng Shan's heart skipped a beat with this sound, and he said with great care: "The prince doesn't like this tea. The official brought the best Longjing in the rain. You can try it." As he said that, he presented the gift box he brought, seven or eight of them, and he didn't know what he had installed.
Chen Ziqi didn't even look at it, drooping her eyelids, recalling what the second prince taught him in his early years. If he wanted to knock on his subordinate officials, he would talk about what he cared about the most.
"I am a new arrival and don't understand many things. I only understood after asking my uncle. The biggest problem in Jianyang City is the dispute between Changjianmen and Duanjianmen. Since this place is under my jurisdiction in the future, I will have to be the one who will take charge of this matter." After pausing here, Chen Ziqi Fu picked up the teacup again and took a sip. "I also have some friendship with Ge Hong of Changjianmen. He promised me that as long as his junior brother becomes the prefect, the dispute between long and short will be calmed."
Ge Hong was the first disciple of Changjianmen who confronted Su Xin Sect at the Tudi Temple that day.
When the prefect heard this, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He took out a stack of silver notes from his sleeve and handed them to Chen Ziqi: "The prince clearly understands that the position of the prefect has been done by Changjian Sect before, but the result is the same. This matter must be determined by the prince's wise and magical martial arts. As long as you speak, the subordinates will be tragic and ignorant, you will definitely do what you have assigned."
Chen Ziqi had a cold face and accepted the silver note and put it aside: "Prepare the city defense first so that people will not make people laugh."
"Yes!" Zeng Shan immediately became happy and bowed to Chen Ziqi with great gratitude. After returning, he immediately rectified the city defense. At least there was a gatekeeper in Jianyang City.
After the prefect left, Chen Ziqi immediately picked up the silver bill and counted it, no more than eight thousand taels. The money solved his urgent need, and at least it was no problem to maintain the expenses in the mansion. However, it was far from enough to make the fiefdom richer and raise some troops.
Chen Ziqi thought about it and sent a letter to the emperor and the second brother. There was no other meaning, it was just asking for money.
However, even if the two of them were willing to give it, it would take ten days and half a month to deliver it at the earliest. In front of them, there were also money to entertain disciples of the Lushan Sect and give gifts to the head of Lushan Sect. The far water could not relieve the near thirst. Chen Ziqi looked at Wu Bujian and Tu Buxian who were squatting in the yard for snowball fights, so he decided to borrow some from Dan Yi first.
Touching the little red bird sleeping soundly in his arms, Chen Ziqi suddenly thought that in the past years, I had always wanted to show Danyi the magic chicken, but I never encountered it. Now I finally have a chance!
He left as soon as he said that, but Heidan's injury improved and he was about to go back to Lucheng. You can walk along the way.
"What are you going to Guiyun Palace to do again?" Chen Zimo asked.
"Show my bird to Danyi." Chen Ziqi said proudly.
"ah?"
