Cui Shenji knew his father's character. He always regarded money as dirt and was known as the old man who gave money away in the underworld.

The amount of silver given away in previous years was at least 70,000 or 80,000 strings of silver, even if it was not 100,000 strings.

Not to mention the money he had to spend on the concubines in the family, just the position of Zuosi Langzhong was something he had spent a huge price to get.

Then Du He tried to refuse several times, but Cui Shenji insisted on giving him the thank-you gift, so Du He had no choice but to accept it.

"Brother Cui, if that's the case then I'll take it."

"From now on, I will cover all your expenses when you go to Baihua Tower."

The Qinghe Cui family was a prominent family in Guandong that rose to prominence during the late Han Dynasty. They inherited the throne during the Wei and Jin Dynasties, entered their heyday during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and reached their peak in the early years of the Northern Dynasties.

During the reign of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, he married into the four noble families of "Lu, Cui, Zheng and Wang", and to this day he is one of the most prominent families among the five surnames and seven names.

Hundreds of years of wealth accumulation allowed the Cui family to own vast fields, countless gold and silver treasures, and antique calligraphy and paintings.

In the current Tang Dynasty, the Qinghe Cui family is not short of money, they just lack top officials in the court.

If a big family does not have a high-ranking official to support it in a dynasty, it will not be able to preserve their huge wealth, nor can it continue the prosperity of the family.

It was precisely because of these reasons that the Southern Ancestral Branch of the Qinghe Cui Clan strongly supported Cui Yixuan.

When Cui Shenji saw Du He accept it, a smile appeared on his face.

"Hey, Brother Du, this is the right way!"

"It just so happens that my father feels that I have spent too much money recently and plans to reduce my spending. From now on, my happiness will depend entirely on you, brother."

After he finished speaking, he did not leave, but sat not far from Du He and whispered mysteriously.

"Brother Du, I have another good news to tell you."

"Brother, my wife and two concubines are all pregnant!"

What?

All three of them are pregnant?

Du He looked at Choi Sun Ki's smug expression, and his face was full of astonishment.

Cui Shenji hasn't laid eggs for several years since he was treated by Sun Simiao. Now he lays several eggs a year?

"Brother Cui, are you so capable now?"

Cui Shenji saw Du He's face full of disbelief and he curled his lips and said.

"Brother Du, you can look down on me, but you can't look down on Dr. Sun!"

"Not only are my wives and concubines pregnant, but my brother has also made Princess Nanping pregnant."

In the past, Cui Shenji did not believe in Sun Simiao's medical skills. He thought he was just a charlatan who could only tell lies to deceive people.

But now the facts are right in front of Cui Shenji, and he now admires Sun Simiao very much.

Du He smiled and said, "Your wives and concubines are all pregnant, which is a great thing."

"During this period of time, don't go to Baihua Tower for no reason. Read more books at home and spend more time with your wives and concubines."

Every one of his good friends was a playboy, whose bodies were drained by their excessive indulgence in alcohol and sex.

According to the original historical course, they would have no children throughout their lives.

Now, through their own intervention, they are slowly giving birth to offspring, which is something worth celebrating.

Moreover, Du He knew that Cui Shenji was just like his father. He seemed to become wise only when he was old and was promoted to the position of prime minister in just a few years.

Cui Shenji nodded and said, "Brother Du, you will go to Luozhou with the Crown Prince to supervise the country tomorrow, and Brother Wang is around Princess Nanping all day, so it's just Brother Xiao and I left, so there's no point in going to Baihua Tower to drink."

"I will take advantage of this free time to study hard. I can't do worse than Xiao Kai!"

Even though Xiao Kai is only a doctor in the Ministry of Personnel now, he has accumulated a lot of merits and will definitely be promoted if he has the chance in the future.

Cui Shenji himself has not made any achievements so far, and has no chance to show himself in front of His Majesty.

So he can only constantly improve himself and prepare for future promotion.

Du He smiled and said, "You are right to think so."

The two chatted for a while, and Cui Shenji saw that Du He still had things to deal with, so he reluctantly left the Ministry of Works.

After lowering the value.

In the quiet backyard of Princess Chengyang’s mansion.

Li Yi and Linglong helped Du He pack her clothes while giving her instructions reluctantly.

"My dear husband, you must behave yourself when you go to Luozhou, and you must not flirt with the women there."

"My sisters all said that there are many brothels in Luozhou, and ordinary men are reluctant to come back after going there. You must not be seduced by the seductresses there."

"If Linglong and I weren't both pregnant and had to take Ping'an, a clingy little guy, with us, we would have gone to Luozhou with you."

Hearing what Li Yi said, Du He turned around and looked at Du Ping'an who was having a lot of fun playing on the blanket.

Even though Du Ping'an is only ten months old, this kid has already started to become a little clingy.

Whenever Li Yi left his sight, he would start crying and making a fuss.

Du He smiled and said, "Don't worry, Yi'er, your husband will remain chaste only for you two."

"Humph!"

Li Yi snorted softly, then pouted and said.

"My husband, you are lying to me again. When you came back yesterday, you smelled of Yin Yushan's rouge. You must have had some intimate contact with her!"

"If Yin Yushan wasn't someone that Fourth Brother had his eyes on, I would definitely not let you have much contact with her."

Today she went to Pingkangfang to see Yin Yushan and found that her beauty was even better than hers, which made her feel a strong sense of crisis.

Who among the men in the world would not love such an incomparably beautiful woman?

Especially Yin Yushan's icy beauty temperament and her enchanting peach blossom eyes, even she, a woman, felt that Yin Yushan was full of charm.

The corner of Du He's mouth twitched, and then he changed the subject.

We cannot argue about topics like this now, because the more intense the argument is, the more disgusted Li Yi will feel.

When the time is right, everything will fall into place naturally.

...

The next day.

On Zhuque Street in Chang'an City.

Countless tall imperial guards wearing armor and holding spears escorted luxurious carriages towards Mingde Gate.

After this large group of people left Chang'an, the onlookers immediately gathered together to discuss.

"Why is the dragon chariot that Your Majesty rides on here?"

"Is Your Majesty going out with all the civil and military officials to inspect the country?"

"And the person sitting on the sedan chair at the back seems to be the Crown Prince!"

"Your Majesty and the Crown Prince left Chang'an at the same time. Could something big have happened?"

"..."

Just as the people were discussing the matter, a middle-aged official dressed in the robes of an official explained loudly.

"Didn't you all go to the county government office to read the government notice?"

"Your Majesty is going to Mount Tai to offer sacrifices to the gods, while His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going to Luozhou to supervise the country!"

It turns out that His Majesty is going to Mount Tai to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth!

No wonder Your Majesty and the Crown Prince left Chang'an at the same time and made such a big fuss.
