Chapter 219: Clear Mind and Strong Momentum

Although it is not the wedding day yet, the door of Yu Jin's house is already full of guests. The streets are even blocked by the congratulatory entourage. This shows that Yu Jin is really popular nowadays, both in Bafu and You can get along well in the court.

Under the leadership of Yu Kuan, Li Tai walked into the house through the side door of Yu's house for family members to enter and exit. Entering the house was the inner courtyard.

Before he could even open his eyes and look around, the laughter of orioles and swallows came from a corridor in the inner house.

There was a maid in the screen of the tent when she heard the sound of walking outside, she looked out, and then quickly pulled back, and the laughter in the corridor suddenly subsided a lot.

But soon, a woman in rich makeup walked out from behind the curtain, pointed at Yu Kuan and frowned, saying, "Erlang, how could you bring outsiders into the inner house without any notice!"

Yu Kuan first smiled apologetically at Li Tai, then turned around and walked over, bowing his head and saying respectfully: "Auntie, I was ordered by my uncle to bring Governor Li Lang of Longxi to the residence to meet him. There were many people at the front door, so he entered through the side door. "

The woman was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then her expression calmed down. She glanced at Li Tai from a distance, then signaled Yu Kuan to come a few steps closer, and asked in a low voice: "This Commander-in-Chief Li is the master who is always in the hall." The mentioned Li Boshan, the direct grandson of Duke Xuan Jin of Longxi, looks young but already has such a grand position..."

Yu Kuan nodded after hearing the words, and then the woman said thoughtfully: "I don't dare to interfere with your interpersonal communication outdoors. But the children who used to know each other are close enough to walk in the inner courtyard. If It's not the way to treat guests if you don't meet them. Just bring people in. "

"Here, here, uncle is already waiting in the middle hall..."

When Yu Kuan heard this, he looked a little embarrassed, but when he saw the woman frowning, he could only bow down and respond.

Li Tai stood under the wall not far away. He lowered his head as if he was being disrespectful and didn't dare to look around. He waited until Yu Kuan came back to complain. He didn't think much about it. He straightened his robe and followed Yu Kuan. Walk towards the corridor behind you.

When he entered the corridor, he saw that there were twenty or thirty women sitting or standing inside, all large and small, looking at him. Li Tai suddenly felt a little regretful, but he was not so embarrassed that he broke out in a cold sweat, but he was It's never a pleasant experience to watch people watching like this.

Following Yu Kuan's guidance, he slowly stepped forward to greet Yu Jin's wife briefly. The mistress of the Zai family did not leave him to talk to her. She smiled and exchanged a few words to signal that they could leave.

After the two of them left, Mrs. Yu turned to the female guests and said with a smile: "After all, he is not a child raised in an ordinary family. He is so bright and shining, and it is very refreshing to see. It is even more rare that he is not relying on Hu Li Yu. A tacky young man who lives a quiet life, with a clear mind and strong energy. For a moment, he couldn't think of any other young man in Kansai who could compare with him!

This husband has an important position and usually does not have much free time to wander around the houses. He happens to be a guest today, so he will introduce it to all the ladies. If there is a girl in the boudoir of each family who is waiting to be hired, seeing such a good man, it will be a big surprise. Don’t be shy about plotting! "

The female guests who could enter the hall of Jin's house were naturally housewives from noble families in the two cities. When Mrs. Yu said this, their expressions showed their emotions. Only one lady sighed: "I have a good family background." , the talents are even better. I heard that I was alone when I entered the court. I am afraid that I will not be able to prosper my family alone..."

As soon as the lady finished speaking, before anyone else could refute, her girl sitting at the table became dissatisfied: "My mother is too tricky to say that, but De Ruyilang has him in her eyes and heart, so she doesn't care about her husband." There are more or fewer others!

It’s not like I don’t have parents and brothers to rely on, and I don’t have to worry about worshiping my aunt. I’ll have a happy baby next year, and I’ll be a happy and prosperous family! People from such a family background are still picky. My mother hates women so much that she will definitely be assigned to the Zhenbing family..."

After hearing this, the lady was naturally embarrassed and very fierce. She first confessed to Madam Yu, then dragged her daughter out of the corridor, stood in the corner, and scolded her: "You... This little girl is really stupid. Did she know that she is the only one who is really picky when it comes to buying goods?

Is the mistress of the Yu family really kind-hearted in introducing good matches to other families? Who at the table can't see that this husband is charming and powerful? She is inciting those underlings who don’t know their own abilities to knock on people’s doors to find out their details. I’m here to pick the wrong one and try to talk to her. How come you, a stupid woman, are crazy about life and talk nonsense..."

The girl didn't have the scheming skills of a mature woman. When she heard her mother's reprimand, her eyelids shed tears as soon as she blinked: "I, I don't know, I don't know these measurements... So what should I do? I've said it all... Anyway Can't, can't this matter just come to nothing?"

"I never expected anything to come true, so it's a failure! But with such a character, it's worth giving up reserve to visit and test. If it succeeds, it will add glory to the lintel, but if it doesn't succeed..."

When the lady said this, she saw several female guests from other households walking out of the corridor and summoned the slaves to leave. Dangzhi pointed at her own woman and said: "Wipe away the tears on your face, let's go into the hall and say goodbye. The force is no better than others. Fight sooner rather than later!”

After hearing this, the girl burst into laughter and wiped away her tears. When she looked at the ladies from each family who were sitting and laughing and chatting with each other before, but now left in a hurry with their parents, her eyes were already flashing with anger.

Yu Kuan led Li Tai into the middle hall, went inside first to report, and briefly described what had just happened. Yu Jin was silent for a while after listening, and after a while he scolded: "Nonsense! This kid is planning many good things and is restless. Being kind to each other may help you, but being friendly may be a burden..."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and told Yu Kuan to introduce Li Tai. He also stood up from the table to greet Li Tai. When he saw Li Tai walking into the hall, he pointed at him and said with a warm smile: "Long time no see. Boshan, you look even more energetic! It’s not rude for me to send you a young man to greet you. If I have something to do with you, you can’t refuse it!”

"It's an honor for Boshan to be able to serve the general. How dare you say anything!"

Li Tai first bowed to Yu Jinchang, then said with a smile, and then said with a sad look: "But when the envoy returned to the house, he was intercepted before entering, and before he went to pay homage to the Lord, he went to the rich family first to ask for his return. I might be guilty of losing his integrity." , the general can’t ignore me if I’m going to be blamed in the future!”

"Thanks to your words, I have fulfilled my wish. I will ask you to be my son-in-law and best groomsman in the future."

Yu Jin walked down the hall, patted Li Tai on the shoulder and said with a smile, then pointed to the outside of the hall: "I myself still deeply seek the perfection of integrity, how can I let you take it lightly? Let's go to see the Lord together!"

As he spoke, he pulled Li Tai out of the central hall, his emotions intercepting him in advance, really just for such a trivial matter.

Li Tai didn't think much about it. Maybe it was a custom in this era that a handsome man must be chosen as the best man when getting married. Yu Jin is so discerning, Li Tai really can't argue with him without conscience, but I wonder if he can be a bridesmaid when he gets married?

Yu Jin's house is not far from Taifu, just half a street away.

A few miles away, it usually only took half an hour to walk and drive, but the front of Yu Jin's house was already surrounded by visitors' cars and horses. After setting up the ceremonial guards to clear the street for a long time, the two of them took the car to the front of Taifu.

They said they were traveling together, but after Yu Jin entered Tai Mansion, he was led straight into the corridors of the military city and entered along the shortcut. Li Tai did not receive such treatment, so he could only walk through various Cao government offices to the direct hall of Taifu under the guidance of the visitors from Taifu.

Although he has only been away for more than half a year, many new faces have been added to the Ba family. It can be seen that the personnel of the Tai family have also changed greatly in the past period.

These new faces also followed the old style of Taifu. They walked with wind at their feet. Occasionally they looked at Li Tai, but they were not familiar with each other, so they walked away in a hurry. Few people came to greet them. .

Although Li Tai was addicted to absenteeism in Taifu, he also regarded himself as an old man in Taifu. Seeing that these new faces were unfamiliar and indifferent to him, he wanted to ask them if they had clocked in today?

When he walked to the main corridor of Taifu where he was waiting to be called, Li Taicai finally saw an acquaintance, but he was also someone he didn't really want to see.

Changsun Shaoyuan, who had just walked out of the Zhitang performance, was stunned for a moment when he saw Li Tai. His expression froze for a moment before he looked back and disappeared. However, after walking a certain distance, he stopped again, turned his head and squeezed out a There was a bit of a stiff smile, but Li Tai didn't even pay attention to him and followed the visitor directly to the straight hall.

Although his expression only changed for a moment, Changsun Shaoyuan's mood changed drastically in his heart. He didn't know what kind of battle between heaven and man he went through before he sadly decided to bow to reality, but he didn't expect to be left alone.

He stood silently for a moment, and the slightly stiff smile on his face was a little embarrassed at first, but soon turned bitter.

Although it was only half a year apart, the situation between them has undergone earth-shaking changes. He was appointed as a subordinate official in the Bafu from being the official secretary of the court. Although he is also the high-ranking right prime minister, he is just a mouthpiece for uploading and distributing information. The Taifu Anyone involved in confidentiality is excluded, and those who hold positions do not live up to their reputation.

But Li Tai's relatives are in important positions inside and outside. Even he himself has thousands of troops and is in charge of the three defenses. Those attack methods that were used or not used last year are no longer able to inflict any harm on them, and you may even have to worry about whether the other party will retaliate.

Li Tai didn't have time to care about how the elder Sun Shaoyuan felt. He was thinking about whether he would find any acquaintances in the Taifu later and find an opportunity to give the elder Sun Shaoyuan a slap in the face. He lowered his head and walked into the hall.

He had just entered the main hall and before he had time to pray, Yu Wentai in the hall had already slapped the table and said angrily: "I haven't seen you for a few months, and my courage is getting stronger. Why do you think I don't treat you well?"

Li Tai was shuddered when he heard this, and then sighed helplessly to himself. This sudden way of greeting was something wrong. If he wasn't used to it, he might be able to fake some truth one day.

Sure enough, before he could answer, Yu Wentai laughed again: "The Yu family is very kind to you. If you don't return to the house, can I ask if there is anything I can do for you? I'll give it to his best friend first." labor!"

Let me ask you, do you want me to be the groom for Yu Laoer?

Li Tai cursed in his belly and went forward to pay homage: "The general did not keep his word. He said that he would cover up the Lord's accusations for me, so I secretly responded with joy. I don't think it is inevitable to blame me, and I also want to eat my words, but I'm afraid If you are disgusted with both things, you will treat the bride’s relatives and guests hospitably on the day of the ceremony, and provide you with generous food and drinks, and you will never spare anything for the master’s family!”
