Chapter 550: Hou Junji Hits a Wall (2 in 1)(1/2)

Li Chengqian was dressed in a polite dress and welcomed the future people in a civilized manner, "I wonder what Mr. Wang is doing here?"

Old Man Wang said very kindly: "I don't know a big word, so I can't call me Old Man Wang.

I heard that I had just moved to this house and had children of appropriate age, so I came to ask Mr. Li if I need to study in our school?

Now is the time when the children start school. If necessary, I will take you and the children to the school to meet the teacher, and report to pay the tuition fee and arrange for admission.

Don’t delay your children’s reading and reading.”

Li Chengqian thoughtfully, the people here were so enthusiastic, and he didn't say anything, but just met there, and he cared about his children's schooling affairs. He was negligent, a father-in-law.

On this side, Hou said, "Husband, I just have nothing to do at home. Xiang'er will be taught by me personally, so there is no need to send it to the school."

Hum? This situation...

The old man looked at Hou in surprise and thought to himself, what is the situation? Are all the women in this family literate? Isn’t it said that it is a down-and-out family who lives in poverty and fails to visit Chang'an and is kicked out of the house?

But if even the women in the family are literate, they can live a better life in Chang'an. I heard from my neighbors that the family can't even have lunch.

How could this old man know that he didn't eat at noon because the male owner who knows how to cook was not at home. He always cooked more in the morning and kept it for lunch and had another meal.

"Since that's the case, I'll say goodbye. If I have something to do, I'll live in our row next to the middle avenue. Just sign up to find Lao Wang.

The villagers in the countryside are all neighbors, so don’t be polite.”

Seeing that Lao Wang was about to leave, Li Chengqian stood up and advised: "Stay on Wang, my child is indeed at the age of school and needs your advice. Where can I teach you? Don't get me wrong."

"Okay, tomorrow you will take your children to find me, and I will take you to the school to visit the teacher.

It is not a good idea for children to go to school here, but each household pays three cents a month to support the school and the teacher. This is the rule set by the prince-consort. No matter whether there are children at home or not, I will pay the money. I will collect it at the beginning of each month. I will talk about this at that time.

By the way, you are a newcomer, but do you have a job to support your family? If not, I can ask the locals to help you find one. See if you are young and strong, as long as you are not lazy and sloppy, it should not be a problem to support your family."

Li Chengqian said gratefully: "Thank you for your care. I have found a job to copy documents to make a living."

"Oh? You are still a scholar, very good. There is another learned person in our 18th mile." Lao Wang said happily.

Although Li Chengqian didn't understand why Lao Wang was excited, he had a very scheming attitude towards seeking knowledge.

After seeing off the guests, Li Chengqian gathered the family to prepare for a meeting.

In fact, there are only two daughters-in-law and one son, including him, there are only four people.

"I have already decided on Xiang'er's admission to school. Since we are here to experience the lives of the people, the children are no exception."

Hou said worriedly: "Husband, can children be educated in such schools well? How good is the teacher's level? How can Xiang'er's education be neglected? Or should I come here in person?"

Li Chengqian criticized: "Look, you just finished speaking and forgot that it is good or bad. We need to experience it personally before we know that if the teacher in the school is not good, this is the problem. We need to find a way to help solve it.

If the teacher's level is OK, then Xianger will be a good thing to study with other children."

Li Xiang said curiously: "Dad, is Xianger finally going to Hongwenguan to study with Aunt Yizi?"

Li Chengqian pulled his son and said patiently: "No, Dad has found you a new school, where there are more children and more lively."

But there is a condition you have to promise me.”

"Really? Are there more people than Hongwenguan?"

“A lot more!”

"That's great. Now there are many people playing with Xiang'er." Xiao Lixiang jumped up excitedly.

"If you want to go to school, you have to promise your father that you can't say you came from the palace when you go out."

Li Xiang focused on it, "Yeah, okay dad, because we came out of the East Palace."

Puff... Li Chengqian almost vomited blood by his son's words, why are you doing? Do you think this is a brain teaser game?

The two ladies laughed so hard that they were lying on each other, and they wanted to see how their husband could explain the secrets to their son.

After nullifying the power of the ox and two tigers, Li Chengqian finally explained clearly and turned his head to look at the two wives.

"The child goes to school, I go to the Ministry of Justice to be on duty, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jinderman rushed to say, "I'll learn to cook at home."

Um???

Li Chengqian and Hou both looked at Jin Deman in surprise, especially Hou, as if she had just met this queen. Why did she think of taking the initiative to learn how to cook? What about her arrogance?

After thinking for a while, Hou said, "It is the duty of women to take care of their husbands and children. My sister and I learn how to cook and do housework together, and take care of our husbands and Xianger."

Recalling Jin Deman's embarrassing appearance in the kitchen, Li Chengqian felt that the road ahead was long and coughed lightly, "Don't worry, you can learn how to cook slowly.

When I am not at home, you can contact the neighbors next to you more to see what they are busy with every day, and have difficulties in life. Please help me remember it."

The two of them recorded as they said. From this moment on, Li Chengqian and his family of four were considered to have truly settled in the Changlefang civilian area.

During this period, Hou talked about his return to his parents' home for help.

"Husband, now we move out of the palace. As a prince, you should always have a title. Xiang'er will be able to inherit it in the future. The father doesn't like us, and he won't even see him. So I went to beg my father this afternoon and asked him to help persuade him..."

Li Chengqian frowned and said, "Woman's opinion! Who told you to make decisions about the major issues at home?

It doesn’t matter whether you have a title or not. It’s not the prince or the prince. I am also the Minister of Justice and can afford to support my family.

If Xiang'er has the ability in the future, he will be able to inherit without a title. If he is not capable, even if he has a title, he will not be able to maintain wealth around him. What is the purpose?

In the future, you are not allowed to meddle in other people's business. Don't forget your identity. The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. This is a rule!"

Hou was so aggrieved that he burst into tears, but Li Chengqian was unwilling to heart. At this time, perhaps no one understood the reason why he made concessions again and again. I guess even if he explained it, his wife would not understand it and could not really worry about it.

This was the first time that Jinderman got angry when she saw her husband. This was also the first time she intuitively felt what patriarchal power was. She felt a little uncomfortable. After all, she had the final say in the past, but now she had to rely on a man.

But she did not think deeply. In her opinion, this is the world. Perhaps finding a man to rely on is the fate of everyone and women. Everyone is the same. Now she is following the crowd. In the future, she will not be a strong queen, but a real ordinary woman in the world.

Although Li Chengqian rejected Hou Junji's kindness, Hou Junji went to find Emperor Li Er for the sake of his daughter and grandson.

Li Er buried his head in the memorial and said without raising his head: "If you come because of the title of Chengqian, then go back. Those who have passed the meeting cannot change their orders every day, and there is no need to discuss it."

Hou Junji immediately became embarrassed. He stood there and spoke, and he didn't want to speak.

After a long time, I couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, I am not a person who cares about the title of title. The matter of the eldest prince's title to the royal family is to be in the internal affairs of the royal family. I shouldn't have spoken too much.

But now their family has all lived in Changlefang, and there are no two servants and maids. Your eldest son, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, is such a noble person, but he lives in a humble room. It is said that he has lost his national constitution if he loses his national character…”

"I have not ordered where to live. They can buy a house in Chang'an City. Moreover, the Minister of Justice has an official residence. That boy is angry with me. What if he wants to live? If he wants to live, let him live."

Hou Junji advised: "Your Majesty, I will just say it straight. Xiang'er is still young and I can't bear to let my children suffer with you. So you can say mercy, after all, that's your grandson."

Hearing this, Li Er stopped the matter, put down his imperial pen, smiled and raised his head to look at Hou Junji, the military general who was the first to follow him.

"I understand your mood, it's hard for you, the father.

But you have also seen that when a child grows up, Cheng Qian insists on doing this, not having a title in the court, and then living in a civilian place below the court. What are you doing?

It’s clearly just for me to show you, and I’m angry!”

this……

When Hou Junji saw the emperor change his face, he quickly said, "Your Majesty misunderstood. He wants to understand the people's sentiments on the spot. He has a kind heart. How can he be angry?"

"Okay, don't talk to him in front of me. He is your son-in-law, but he is also my son. No one knows his son is better than his father.

You don’t have to tell me about these trivial matters, go to Chengqian. As long as he is willing to bow his head and give in, I will not be stingy about living in a house, including the title of prince.

I don’t want to watch my grandson suffer, but my son is not good at it. Junji, what’s the point of having a son like this? It’s better to have a daughter to worry about…”

OK, as he talked, he actually started to have a family matter?

Hou Junji was covered in black lines, but he had to chat with the emperor, but at this time he had a clear mind that it turned out that everything was caused by Li Chengqian, a stubborn son-in-law who could not be helped.

He turned his head and went directly to the Ministry of Justice to find Li Chengqian. Unexpectedly, Li Chengqian was very determined and said bluntly that he knew what he was doing, so he didn't have to worry too much about his father-in-law.

This attitude almost caused Hou Junji to suffer internal injuries. If the other party was not a prince, if it were a son of an ordinary noble family, Hou Junji would have wanted to beat up his son-in-law directly.

Do you think I want to take care of it? If it wasn't for my daughter and grandson, even if you, Li Chengqian, have nothing to do with me?

Of course, this is the angry words that Hou Junji thought about.

When I first married my daughter to Li Chengqian, I must have had some intentions. After all, that was the Crown Princess. If it went well, I would be the Empress of the Palace in the future. But now, I didn’t succeed in investing in the Crown Prince, but instead I suffered as well?

Li Er and his son set up traps for the people behind him, but the fewer people know about this, the better. At present, only they and Du Shaoqing know about it.

So on the surface, Emperor Li Er is gradually demoting the eldest prince and becoming increasingly distant, and it seems that the father-son relationship is very disharmonious.

But only in this way can the people behind it jump out with confidence and boldness.

Hou Junji didn't know about these things. What he planned was to ensure the quality of his children's life first, then earn the title, and finally regain the position of crown prince step by step. This was exactly the opposite of the plan of Li Er and his son.

This led to Hou Junji's subsequent steps being wrong.

The son-in-law Li Chengqian was unable to persuade him, so Hou Junji had to bite the bullet and ask Li Er for help and order him again. After a while, Li Er was annoyed and simply avoided him.

Until this day, it was another dynasty meeting. Hou Junji contacted a group of people and brought up the old things together again, striving to protect the eldest prince Li Chengqian.

This move was unexpected to Li Chengqian, thinking that my father-in-law was kind enough to help him?

Li Er is not happy, what is Lao Hou doing? If you don’t do it well, why are you a group of people doing? Should you advise or force the palace to form a clique for personal gain?

Well, I formed a clique for personal gain and directly positioned Hou Junji. After the court meeting, Li Er summoned several important officials to discuss and directly took Hou Junji from the position of Minister of War and replaced him with Li Ji.

However, Hou Junji was sent to Luoyang to be the governor of Luoyang. Li Er was called "not seeing each other" and "not being upset".
