Mixed in Datang to be a son-in-law

After leaving the Suzaku Gate, the noisy sounds from the square came to his ears intermittently.

It's all about Zhou Jinyan's betting with him, boasting that Zhou Jinyan is lucky, and Li Tai can lose this too, it's too embarrassing.

Li Tai became angrier as he listened, and returned to his guard with a straight face.

"Li En!" he yelled angrily.

"King Wei!"

The guard named Li En hurriedly knelt on the ground, his face pale.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Li Tai roared in a low voice, "Where's the dead man? Let him come back, you didn't kill anyone?"

Li En bit the bullet and said: "Back to the King of Wei, my subordinates dare to guarantee their lives, and they definitely did not kill the wrong person."

"Did you kill the wrong person?"

Li Tai pointed to the death-row prisoners who were gathered together, "That person is a death-row prisoner, and there are quite a few death-row prisoners now, that's right, how did that person get here?"

Li En was sweating coldly, and he couldn't speak.

Ghosts know how people can die and come back to life.

"Humph!"

Li Tai said angrily: "Go back and settle the score with you!"

Watching Li Tai and his party leaving in a rage, Zhou Jinyan blinked and said, "Why didn't Your Majesty give me a reward?"

Li Mengjiang said softly: "In the past years, it was announced on the spot, but this year is a bit strange, it is not possible..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw a servant walking over.

"Consort Zhou."

"Servant Liu Nei." Zhou Jinyan hurriedly greeted him.

"Your Majesty, please." Liu Neishi smiled and made a gesture of invitation.

"Sister Ruyu, Linchuan, you go and wait for me in the carriage." Zhou Jin said, "I'll come as soon as I go."

After finishing speaking, he called Xiahou Zixuan aside and gave a few solemn instructions.

It was already past lunch time, and the sun was shining on my body, making me feel warm.

Zhou Jinyan followed Liu Neishi all the way to the imperial study.

"Prince Zhou will wait a moment."

After Liu Neishi finished speaking, he went in to report.

Zhou Jinyan waited outside the study door, still thinking in his heart, how did Li Danyue know that the shadow turned into a death row prisoner, why did the shadow replace the death row prisoner?

"Could it be that Princess Guantao and Shadow know each other?"

Zhou Jinyan thought to himself, "Even if you know each other, you shouldn't go in and replace the condemned prisoner."

The more he thought about it, the more confused he became, he just wanted to meet Li Danyue earlier and ask what was going on.

"Xuan, Zhou's son-in-law will see you." Liu Nei waiter sang.

Zhou Jinyan put away his miscellaneous thoughts and walked in.

"Chen, Zhou Jinyan, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

"no."

Li Shimin and Empress Changsun sat together with smiles on their faces and seemed to be in a good mood.

"Be careful," Li Shimin stroked his beard and smiled, "It's beyond my expectation that all these criminals will come back this time."

"That's why they had no choice but to return because they felt the power of Long En."

Zhou Jinyan said lightly.

Li Shimin and Empress Changsun looked at each other, feeling a little strange in their hearts. Recently, this kid seems to have really changed a lot.

"Ha ha."

Li Shimin was in a happy mood, and said directly: "Don't flatter me, this time it appears to be a bet you and Qingque made to celebrate the prince's birthday. But in fact, the impact of this matter is far greater than your imagination. Reward you well, tell me, what do you want?"

Empress Changsun secretly pulled Li Shimin, a little worried that Zhou Jinyan would make unrealistic demands.

"Your Majesty, I feel that since the three of you in 720 have complied with the king's covenant, you should let it go completely, so as to better demonstrate your majesty's kindness. Especially those prisoners on death row, they came to the covenant knowing that they must die. It's giving up the hope of life. It's just to keep the promise."

"You make sense."

Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "For such a big event, these condemned prisoners can still keep their promises. What kind of courage and spirit do they have at this time?"

Zhou Jinyan was puzzled, so why didn't you let him go?

Empress Changsun interjected: "I'm also very moved, but I just want to release people, but I still have to wait for the consent of the ministers, or what promises are made by His Majesty. Now that those who are not death row prisoners are released, Wei Zheng and the others just say it's ok. They are not willing to let the offender go.”

Zhou Jinyan thought to himself that Wei Zheng is really nosy, no wonder he can make Li Shimin jump in anger.

"The other people are released directly, which means that the crime is reduced. Doesn't the death row prisoner have a reduced crime?" Zhou Jinyan asked again.

"This matter has to be discussed with the Ministry of Criminal Justice." Li Shimin's answer was ambiguous.

Then he continued: "Okay, let's talk about your conditions."

Zhou Jinyan sighed, and Qujiangchi was ruined again.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to use this condition to plead for the release of the remaining 72 death row prisoners, so that they can enjoy Your Majesty's grace together."

Li Shimin was stunned, and looked at Empress Changsun, who was also a little dazed, "You said that with this condition, let me release him?"

Zhou Jinyan scratched his head pretending to be puzzled, "Your Majesty said any condition, could it be that this condition is exceeded?"

Empress Changsun frowned and said, "I sincerely say, are you sure you want to use this condition to release him?"

"determine."

Thinking of the ugly woman with whom he had a dewy marriage, Zhou Jinyan felt chilly all over, but he didn't want her to die.

"I made a bet with the king of Wei. If these people can keep the appointment on time, they believe in me and fulfill me."

Zhou Jinyan said solemnly: "Without them, I would not have the opportunity to raise conditions. If this is the case, I should do something for them."

Empress Changsun showed a smile in the corner of her eyes, nodded in satisfaction, and stopped talking.

Li Shimin wondered: "I'm afraid it will be difficult to release people. But they used their lives to keep their promises. I can assure you that they will absolutely pardon their capital crimes."

Zhou Jinyan was disappointed, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En."

Li Shimin felt embarrassed, "I will do this even if you don't say it. It's not a condition, but I will allow you to say one more condition."

Zhou Jinyan didn't expect such a good thing, he was hesitating whether to talk about Qujiangchi, when he saw Empress Changsun walking over.

"His Royal Highness."

Zhou Jinyan bowed respectfully.

Empress Changsun nodded and said softly: "Except for the two-year agreement between us and the official position, I can ask His Majesty to promise you any conditions."

Zhou Jinyan had a strange expression on his face, looking at the back of Empress Changsun who was slowly going back, she was silent for a while.

"Be careful." Li Shimin called out.

"His Majesty."

"Have you thought about it?" Li Shimin asked with a smile, "What conditions do you want?"

"What I want is a bit big, I'm afraid His Majesty won't give it."

Empress Changsun's heart tightened, and her face darkened.

Li Shimin said unhurriedly: "Just tell me and see if I can give it."

"I want Qujiang Pond." Zhou Jinyan bit the bullet and said it.

After speaking, I felt embarrassed for a while, and didn't dare to look up at the emperor and queen.

Empress Changsun breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile in the corner of her eyes: "This Qujiang Pond, Your Majesty, look at it?...What, do you want Qujiang Pond?"

"Exactly."

Chapter 324 Marry someone I like

Zhou Jinyan continued to harden his head and responded.

"You kid dare to speak."

There was no expression on Li Shimin's face, he just said: "I heard that you and Lin Chuan moved out of Zhou Mansion and went to Qu Chi Fang?"

"exactly."

Li Shimin didn't say anything more, turned his eyes away, and said softly: "Guanyin maidservant, do you see this condition?"

Empress Changsun said softly: "Although it's a bit big, it's not impossible to give it. It's impossible not to give this or that? Your Majesty, do you think so?"

"Before we agreed to give Qujiang Pond to Weishan (Li Zhi). If Jinyan is given, the reward for doing good will be gone."

Empress Changsun smiled slightly, "When it's the birthday of good deeds, you can reward others. I sincerely say that this matter can also be regarded as a great contribution to my Tang Dynasty. Is the value comparable to that of the little Qujiang Lake? Besides, he lives in Qujiang now. Next to Jiangchi, presumably he also has his intentions."

Li Shimin knew it well, knowing that as long as Zhou Jinyan didn't mention Li Lizhi's matter, the queen really could discuss everything.

"Sincerely speaking, this Qujiang Pond is really too big. Originally, you can only be rewarded if you make great contributions."

Zhou Jinyan had something in his heart, and listened to what he said next.

"But if you move out of the Zhou Mansion, I also have a little responsibility. I will reward you with this Qujiangchi. It's a little bit of my kindness."

"Sir, thank you Your Majesty Long En."

Walking out of the study, Zhou Jinyan was half satisfied and half worried.

Satisfied is really got Qujiang Pond, worried about the shadow.

Holding the imperial decree in his hand, he hurriedly went outside the palace.

Not long after, when he was about to leave the palace gate, a group of people walked towards him, the leader was not Princess Gaoyang, who else could it be?

"Brother Zhou?"

"Gao Yang."

Zhou Jinyan greeted them with a smile, "Where are Linchuan and the others?"

"I'm waiting for you outside the Suzaku Gate." Gao Yang said with a smile on his face, "Brother Zhou, I will visit your house some other day, you must treat me well."

"It's easy to say, easy to say." Zhou Jinyan said with a smile: "After your majesty canceled your engagement, didn't you mention anything else?"

"Not for now."

Gao Yang said: "It's just that I'm about the same age, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait long, and I should marry someone else."

Zhou Jinyan smiled and said, "Isn't it normal to marry and have children? You can't be your lonely princess forever, can you?"

"But I want to marry someone I like."

Zhou Jinyan was startled, "The one you like? Who is so lucky to have Gao Yang's favor?"

"Brother Zhou, you are laughing at me." Gao Yang blushed slightly, and lowered his head shyly.

Zhou Jin said cheerfully: "I'm not joking, tell me about it, and I'll help you match it up."

"You can't match." Gao Yang lowered his head, "His identity is different."

Zhou Jinyan almost vomited blood, he suddenly thought of a person, Bianji!

"You, you don't like monks, do you?"

"Brother Zhou, what are you talking about? How can I like monks when I'm so good?" Gao Yang's eyes widened.

"That's not sure," Zhou Jinyan slandered in his heart, and said in his mouth: "I'm talking nonsense, then who do you like?"

"What do you want me to say about such a shameful thing?"

Gao Yang rolled his eyes at him, then pursed his lips and smiled, "We'll talk about it when we go to Brother Zhou's new home. Maybe Brother Zhou can really help me."

Zhou Jinyan patted his chest to reassure, but he said in his heart that you don't really count on me, I am still thinking about my own affairs now.
