The blacksmith lady is killing people in the harem, and her son is responsible for it.

Just as Li Guozhu was talking to Zhao Rong and others, Liu came over with her son.

Before the person arrived, a voice came over, "Is my queen's niece here?"

When Xiao Jingrui heard the other party shouting like that, he subconsciously frowned, "Master Li, who is this?"

Li Guozhu was also angry. He turned around and saw his wife and son.

"Why did you get off the bus? Get back in the car!"

Liu stretched her neck, but did not see any female relatives. "Didn't the Queen come to pick us up in person? Our master is the Queen's uncle!"

Zhao Rong looked at Li Guozhu with a half-smile, "The emperor's sister-in-law is the mother of a country, and she is very busy every day. I hope Lord Li will not be offended!"

Li Guozhu's expression was stern. "Prince Rong is right. The women in the inner house have little knowledge and speak without restraint. Please don't be offended, Your Majesty."

Zhao Rong felt that the Li family was still confused, "Master Li, let's go into the city quickly!"

"Yes!"

Zhao Rong and Xiao Jingrui jumped on their horses and walked in front, obviously having lost their patience.

Li Guozhu turned around and glared at Liu, "Get back on the carriage!!!"

Li Guozhu's voice was harsh and mixed with anger, which frightened Liu.

She responded in a low voice, "Yes, husband!"

After saying that, he ran away with his son Li Tianxiong.

Li Guozhu's chest heaved, and if it wasn't the wrong occasion, he would really have started cursing.

In fact, he would rather guard the border, where he would be more comfortable.

But the emperor should be on guard against him.

It seems that I still need to find an opportunity to meet the Queen Mother and let her talk to the Emperor, and then I can go to other places to guard.

The north is not allowed, but the south and west are fine.

Given Liu's personality, if she stayed in Chang'an for too long, she would definitely get into trouble.

Li Guozhu got on his horse with a heavy heart, and then went to the city with his generals.

Finally they arrived at Li's Mansion. Li Guozhu felt satisfied when he saw such a large general's mansion.

Zhao Rong said: "Sir Li, the mansion here is the house given to me by my royal brother."

Li Guozhu bowed in the direction of the imperial palace, "I thank the Lord for his grace!"

"Lord Li, my mission is complete, so I will leave now."

"Take care, Prince Rong. I will come to thank you another day!"

Zhao Rong nodded, then led his men away.

As for Li Guozhu, he had tens of thousands of soldiers under his command in his early years, and later he absorbed Shang Yunze's troops.

Although those troops are now taken over by Yang Su, after all, they have followed Li Guozhu for many years, so Li Guozhu still has some status in the army.

Liu and Li Tianxiong got off the carriage and were even happier to see such a nice house.

"Husband, this will be our home from now on?"

Li Guozhu was only a lieutenant general in the previous dynasty and had no mansion.

Now I am very happy to have such a big mansion in the East District of Chang'an City.

"Well, take the people in and settle them down!"

Soon, the servants in the carriage behind got off and came to carry the luggage.

Li Guozhu didn't care about that. He looked at the generals who had followed him for many years and said, "Let's go to the palace to express our gratitude!"

Although the emperor gave them time to settle down, Li Guozhu still decided to go to the palace to meet the emperor first.

"Yes, General!"

Soon, a team of cavalry headed towards the imperial city.

When Liu saw her husband leaving, she let the woman hiding in the last carriage get off.

There were two stunning women hiding in this car, they were twin sisters.

Originally, Liu had collected many beautiful women and planned to bring them to Chang'an City.

However, she was discovered by Li Guozhu on the way. After knowing her intention, he immediately gave the person to one of his generals.

Li Guozhu attaches great importance to power and does not care about beauty.

In addition, he has been fighting outside for so many years and has no concubines in the mansion.

These twin sisters were hidden by Liu and were kept alive.

Of course, these two are also the most beautiful. They are both wearing Xiao Si’s clothes now, but they have slender waists and walk with a swaying look, and they look like charming women at first glance.

"You two come with me."

"Yes, ma'am!"

The twin sisters nodded and followed Liu in small steps.

At the palace, Zhao Zhen already knew that Li Guozhu had entered the palace.

"Please come in, General Li!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

At this time, Zhao Zhen was not the only one in Taiji Hall, there was also Cao Kun who had previously participated in the Western Expedition.

Zhao Zhen also did not expect that Cao Kun would ask for permission to go to Golmud to garrison.

However, he is indeed a suitable candidate.

Soon, Li Guozhu came in with his generals.

"Your Highness, I, Li Guozhu, pay my respects to His Majesty. Long live the emperor!"

"Your Majesty, I, Jiang Huan, pay my respects to you. Long live the emperor!"

"........."

There were only five generals who followed Li Guozhu into the hall, and the rest were waiting outside the hall.

They will only come in if the emperor summons them.

Li Guozhu knew that he would most likely stay in Chang'an City, but he still wanted to commend his subordinates who had followed him for many years.

Moreover, they have a position in the army, so naturally they will not forget his kindness.

Zhao Zhen was born a military general, so he would naturally not withhold the military merits of soldiers.

According to the size of their military achievements, everyone was promoted and received rewards.

However, Zhao Zhen did not agree to let them return to their original army, but instead disbanded them and sent them to different states.

In the evening, the palace held a banquet as usual, but this time it was a small banquet, specially for Li Guozhu and others.

The guests were some ministers from the Ministry of War, as well as Cao Kun and Lang Bu. After all, the three parties were cooperating from a distance and were all heroes of this event.

During the meal, Zhao Zhen did not drink much, just took a few sips.

Because he had been injured before, he is now paying extra attention.

Zhao Zhen left halfway through the banquet.

After the Emperor left, the remaining generals felt more at ease.

Soon, many generals who were still in their original positions went to other people's tables to drink.

Li Guozhu came to Cao Kun with a wine glass in hand, "General Cao, we meet again!"

Cao Kun knew Li Guozhu, after all, he was nominally the queen's uncle.

When Cao Kun met Li Guozhu on the battlefield, he did not mention who his wife was. Now they have arrived in Chang'an City.

Maybe I could let my wife meet him and see if she can remember what happened.

"General Li, nice to meet you!"

The two of them boasted about their business for a while before Cao Kun got to the point, "General Li, I'm going to hold a housewarming party the day after tomorrow. I wonder if you can come and attend!"

Li Guozhu himself had obtained a house, and he also guessed that Cao Kun would definitely give him a reward. "General Cao invited me, so I am willing to go."

Li Guozhu returned to Chang'an City and was willing to actively communicate with the officials of Chang'an City, especially since Cao Kun was not only a general of the Western Expedition, but also the son-in-law of the Xia family!

At this time, the Left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War came over with unsteady steps, "General Li, General Cao, why are you two still so distant?"

"One of you is the Queen's stepfather, and the other is her adoptive uncle. You should be a family!"

Li Guozhu: “….”
