The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Li Ke really felt that Zhao Chen was very magical.

He had just entered the Li Zheng Hall, and before he could greet the emperor, he was held down and punished by the emperor.

Fortunately, it's not too heavy, so it's just a way of venting anger.

But if he hadn't protected his face in advance, he would definitely have suffered a lot more injuries.

So Li Ke is still very grateful to Zhao Chen.

Little did they know that the emperor took action against him without saying a word because he was so angry with Zhao Chen before.

Where are you going later? Zhao Chen smiled and refused to reveal it to Li Ke, otherwise this kid would definitely get involved with him.

Sir, where are you going? Li Ke looked at Zhao Chen.

It was no fun to stay in the palace, and he didn't know many people outside.

Weiguo Duke's Mansion, are you going together?

Forget it, Duke Wei will definitely ask you where you are later. If I see something I shouldn't see when I go there, you will have to kill me in the future! Li Ke waved his hands repeatedly.

…

In the Duke Wei's Mansion, Li Jing was sitting in the study, and the middle volume of the Art of War had been completed.

The mood is pretty good.

Father, Zhao Chen said he would come over for the banquet tonight, do you want to go and clean it up? Li Ruoshuang cleared the table for Li Jing and said casually.

It's not the first time we've met. Could it be that if I don't take care of myself, that kid won't recognize me? Li Jing waved his hand and smoothed his messy beard.

He has not cleaned himself up for a long time.

People look more and more vicissitudes of life.

Fortunately, he was full of energy, so there was nothing to worry about.

Girl, has your mother told you about the Japanese envoy? Li Jing looked at Li Ruoshuang and was silent for a moment before speaking.

Li Ruoshuang nodded.

When she returned to the Duke's Mansion this morning, Hongfu Nu told her that the Japanese envoy was in the Taiji Hall and wanted to marry the Japanese princess to Zhao Chen.

Li Ruoshuang felt a little uncomfortable.

But she believed that Zhao Chen would never agree.

However, if the emperor wanted to have a good relationship with the Japanese country, would he force Zhao Chen to agree?

Li Ruoshuang was actually a little worried.

Zhao Chen's influence is growing. Although this is a good thing, it has hidden dangers for you now.

As a minister, you cannot make the decision on many things.

Tonight, I will prepare for my father to confirm the wedding date for you two with Zhao Chen. Everything will be simple and quick.

What do you think? Li Jing hesitated.

This matter should not have been brought up by him.

Moreover, it was not for him and Zhao Chen to talk.

But the emperor and the empress were unethical, and the previously agreed wedding date was pushed back again and again.

His daughter Li Ruoshuang is hanging now.

If Zhao Chen's attitude towards Li Ruoshuang hadn't changed, Li Jing would have refused the marriage.

Marriage matters are all decided by the parents! Li Ruoshuang nodded, looking a little shy.

…

When Zhao Chen arrived at Duke Wei's mansion, lanterns were already lit outside.

The servants, one at a time, invited Zhao Chen into the house with great attentiveness.

Zhao Chen originally thought it was just an ordinary small banquet.

When he entered the courtyard, he found that there were many people coming.

Many officials, big and small, and generals of rank five or above in the army came.

Many of them are acquaintances from Tai Chi Hall.

Fang Xiang!

Old Wei Tou.

Uncle Cheng, Uncle Qin...

Zhao Chen went to greet everyone one by one.

Zhao Chen is here. Come on, meet the generals. Li Jing, as the host, took Zhao Chen's hand and introduced him to the generals and princes in the army.

Yongxing Gong Yu Shinan, you have worked together on the imperial examination before...

Chai Shao, Duke of Qiao, the husband of Princess Pingyang...

Yun Guo Gong Zhang Liang...

Tang Jian, Duke of Ju Kingdom...

Li Jing introduced Zhao Chen one by one. They were all the later heroes of Lingyan Pavilion. .??.

These are all the old people who founded the Tang Dynasty. Zhao Chen was a little surprised that they all came here today.

I haven't seen you for a few months, Duke Zhao. He is even more charming than before. Yu Shinan smiled and held hands with Zhao Chen.

The old man is very old.

Compared with when they were imperial examination examiners together, they looked even older.

Mr. Yu, with his fair hair and childish face, has the appearance of an immortal, and his life span can be extended to a hundred years. Zhao Chen quickly returned the greeting to Yu Shinan.

Old people like to hear others say that they live a long life.

Yu Shinan's face was full of smiles, and he secretly said that the Zhao Chen in front of him was a boy who could figure out people's hearts.

The same words coming out of his mouth have different effects.

No wonder the emperor and empress doted on him so much.

Gong Wei, this guy is quite good. No wonder you are willing to betroth your daughter to him. Chai Shao looked at Zhao Chen and said to Li Jing.

Hey, Zhao Chen obviously got it by his own strength. If you don't believe it, in a few years, Zhao Chen's achievements will surpass those of us immortals. Tang Jian said with a smile, looking at Li Jing with a full look in his eyes. It's envy.

Who doesn’t have a daughter at home?

As soon as Wangyou Bookstore's storybook came out, Zhao Chen's name spread throughout Chang'an City.

I don't know how many daughters of officials and eunuchs have been attracted by this.

Tang Jian saw his daughter in a daze holding the book she bought from the bookstore.

He also wrote Zhao Chen's name in the study from time to time.

Tang Jian kept it secret and didn't dare to say anything.

Otherwise, people will definitely laugh to death

!

But his love for Zhao Chen is real, and his envy for Li Jing is also real.

After everyone talked for a while, the banquet was already arranged.

Sit down at separate tables.

Li Jing and Hongfu Nu sat at the top, while Li Ruoshuang stood aside.

I would like to excuse you all from coming to the banquet today. I would like to propose a toast to you first. Li Jing picked up the wine glass and said to everyone.

Uncle Cheng, what's going on today? Why are so many people here? After drinking a glass of wine, Zhao Chen asked Cheng Yaojin in a low voice.

Before you came back, the Japanese envoy was at Taiji Hall and said that he would betroth the Japanese princess to you...

Cough cough cough - Zhao Chen choked after one mouthful.

Princess of Japan? Zhao Chen looked at Cheng Yaojin.

Yes, Li Weigong punched the Japanese envoy and knocked him unconscious. Cheng Yaojin said with a smile.

Why is Li Jing so excited? Today's banquet is why.

So? Zhao Chen still doesn't quite understand.

So today they are here to bear witness to you. I guess the wedding date for you and his girl will be set soon.

And it's quick and simple. Li Weigong will not give you another chance! Cheng Yaojin patted Zhao Chen on the shoulder and smiled.

Zhao Chen was a little stunned.

He thought that so many people came today because Li Jing was preparing to denounce him.

Unexpectedly, he was going to finalize his marriage to Li Ruoshuang.

He looked up and saw Li Ruoshuang looking towards him.

After looking at each other, Li Ruoshuang looked away.

It was obvious that she also knew the purpose of today's banquet.

Everyone, this second thing, I want you to be a witness. Li Jing's voice sounded again.

I have decided that my daughter's marriage to Zhao Chen will be arranged for this year's Mid-Autumn Festival.

When the time comes, I invite you all to come and have a cup of wedding wine!
