Facing Dou Ying, Tian Fu felt an inexplicable sense of inferiority, even though he is now the prime minister, his fief is more than 8,200 households, which is more than twice that of Dou Ying.

Dou Ying was born into a noble family, and before that, the Tian family was just a commoner in Changling.

Dou Ying is handsome, while Tian Feng is ugly and short.

Although Dou Ying was a relative of the outside world, he was granted the title of marquis for his military merits, and Tian Feng had no achievements in his innocence, which was purely nepotism.

Dou Ying was knowledgeable and had strong ability to do things. Emperor Jing Dynasty served as the crown prince's tutor. Tian Fen was also a talented among the king's brothers, and he was incomparable to Dou Ying. His greatest ability was to eat, drink and have fun. Even if he became the prime minister, he would just act according to the imperial edict.

Compared with Dou Ying, Tian Fen is useless. What's more, when Tian Fen was not yet famous, Dou Ying was already in a high position. In order to get a job, Tian Fen once held respect for Dou Ying's sons and nephews. He didn't think it was a shameful thing to think about it now. He always wanted to earn this face back, but he never found an opportunity.

At this moment, seeing Dou Ying smiling, Tian Feng instinctively felt that Dou Ying was sarcasticating him again, and he couldn't help but get angry, so of course he was going to take advantage of the issue.

Before Liang Xiao could react, Liu Ling pushed him lightly and gave him a wink. Liang Xiao understood and quickly met him, deliberately blaming Dou Ying and said, "Wang Wei Qihou, I am a martial artist. Do you come to my house to talk about knowledge? Do you want to joke about me?"

Dou Ying had no intention of arguing with Tian Fu, but when he saw Liang Xiao stopping him, he retreated. "Haha, Junhou was joking, how dare he dare?"

Liang Xiao turned around and said to Tian Fu: "Prime Minister, please sit down."

Tian Fu looked at Princess Guantao who was sitting in the chief motionless. Her ugly face twitched for a moment and waved her hand. She said mysteriously: "I won't sit there anymore. There are many affairs in the palace. The Jiangdu is investigating Liu Jian's case, and the matter in Dixin County, Henan has not yet agreed. I have to hurry up and go to the palace."

Liang Xiao nodded repeatedly, full of admiration. "The Prime Minister works hard, thank you, thank you."

Tian Feng pretended to be modest, said a few words of insincere blessings, put down the gift, and left with his sleeves.

Everyone in the seat chuckled knowingly, then threw the field slut behind their heads and started to chat and laughter.

Tian Fu went out of the door and got into the car. Looking at the lively Liang family, his face was almost dripping. He condescended to the Liang family to congratulate him and said goodbye halfway. Liang Xiao's resignation was not at all sincere, and the people who stood up to give him were counting, which was really embarrassing.

He did not go home. He went straight out and came to Changle Palace.

The Queen Mother was surprised. "Why did you come here? Shouldn't you drink at the Liang family?"

Tian Fen squeezed out a few tears, fell to the ground crying, and said what he had just happened. "Sister, I was so hot today that I was so hot today."

The Queen Mother was furious. "This Liang Xiao is so outrageous. I will give him face and let the dignified prime minister congratulate him. How can he repay me? I am still alive, and he bullies my brother like this. When I die, wouldn't he treat you like Liu Jian?"

Tian Fu felt something was wrong, and it was a bit unlucky to compare him with Liu Jian. However, in front of the Queen Mother, he did not dare to point it out, but he just cried even harder.

The Queen Mother was even more angry and asked someone to call the emperor. Although Weiyang Palace and Changle Palace were only separated by a highway, the two palaces were too big. The Emperor rushed over after half an hour. Waiting made the Queen Mother even more angry. As soon as she saw the Emperor, she sternly scolded: "Is Your Majesty very busy?"

The emperor glanced at Tian Fu, who was crying but without tears, and said calmly: "It turns out that my uncle is so tired that I can find it."

Tian Feng was very surprised. "Your Majesty is looking for me?"

"Well, Dou Ying submitted a memorial, and I couldn't handle it for a moment, so I sent someone to invite you to the palace to discuss. The people from the Prime Minister's Mansion said that you went to the Liang family, but the Liang family did not find you. I was still wondering, where have you been, but I didn't expect to come to the palace."

Tian Feng was very embarrassed. When the emperor heard that he could not decide, he wanted to ask Tian Feng to discuss it, and he became calmer. "Although your uncle is not in the Liang family, Dou Ying is in the Liang family. The Liang family is very lively now, and half of the civil and military officials have arrived."

"I asked him to go Dou Ying." The emperor took his seat, took out a memorial from his sleeve, and pushed it to Tian Fu. "He said that this memorial was inspired by Liang Xiao, but he couldn't explain it clearly. I asked him to ask again. Uncle, you can take a look."

Tian Feng had just heard Dou Ying say not long ago, and when he was about to take a look, he didn't care about pretending to be pitiful, he quickly opened his eyes. Seeing that he was so serious, the Queen Mother, who was full of resentment, did not dare to disturb him, but just complained in a low voice. After hearing this, the emperor just nodded but did not comment.

Dou Ying's memorial was very long. Tian Feng read it for a long time before reading it. After thinking about it carefully, he felt a little confused and didn't know how to evaluate it for a while. He wanted to refute Dou Ying's opinion, but with his understanding of the emperor, what Dou Ying said seemed to be exactly what the emperor wanted. If there was no suitable reason, he would rashly object, and he was afraid of making the emperor unhappy.

"Uncle, what do you think of Dou Ying's argument?" the emperor said calmly.

"This... seems familiar." Tian Feng was vague.

"Yes, it's very similar to a suggestion that Liang Xiao had put forward. However, Dou Ying was an old minister of the three dynasties. His vision was so good that he was not comparable to Liang Xiao, and his words were ten times stronger than Liang Xiao."

After hearing the emperor's evaluation, Tian Fu breathed a sigh of relief and said without thinking: "But, I think that although he quoted the classics and did not actually have Liang Xiao's barriers, it was just a cliché. No, it was a young student's old argument. He just said the suggestions of Liang Xiao, a junior, again, and it was not enough to discuss them."

The emperor paused slightly, and then said, "Although that said, Dou Ying was interested in the court. He still did not forget to give advice to the court without any responsibilities. His ambition was commendable. Liang Xiao had vision, but he was too young to use it to convince the public. Dou Ying was mature and had prestige. If he could use it together, it could also show the court's desire to seek talent. Uncle, you highly praised him back then, but now you are the prime minister, but he has been idle at home, so there are some remarks among the people."

Tian Fu was stunned, his face tightened a little, and he looked at the Queen Mother timidly.

The Queen Mother frowned slightly. "Is Your Majesty preparing to re-activate him? The late emperor once said that Dou Ying was complacent and easy, so he didn't think he was prime minister. Last time you let him be prime minister and caused all kinds of troubles, it was not enough?"

The emperor smiled. "I have my uncle as prime minister, so how could I let him be prime minister? I just want him to be a servant to show my respect for the old minister. If the queen thinks it is inappropriate, then that's all. My uncle should be open-minded and not be confused by those gossips and minds, and disturb my mother again."

The Queen Mother heard the emperor’s implication and did not dare to say it again.

The emperor sighed again. "Uncle, I really hope this suggestion comes from you. You are both the prime minister and the national uncle. You have to show some achievements so that people can know that the court is based on their merits rather than nepotism. It has been discussed for half a year for the establishment of a county in Henan. When will you come up with a charter? It took only three months to conquer Henan."

Tian Fu was blushing and speechless. The emperor sighed, complained a few more times, and stood up to say goodbye.

The Queen Mother's face was dull and glared at Tian Fu fiercely. "Look at you, I didn't ask clearly, so I came to complain, which made me shameless. I asked you to go to the Liang family to congratulate you, just hope that you and Liang Xiao will get closer and not let Dou Ying take advantage of the loopholes. Now, you leave the table halfway and let Dou Ying talk to Liang Xiao. Maybe something new will come out in two days? It depends on what you will do at that time."

Tian Fen wanted to cry without tears. This result was not as expected by him, and it was simply boring.

The Queen Mother was humiliated for a while. "Forget it, it's not helpful to regret it. It's better to let Dou Ying do a free job, so that he won't hide at home every day and don't know what to do. Looking in front of him, he feels more at ease."

In the Liang family, the host and guests all parted in joy.

Liang Xiao sent off the last group of guests and then returned to the newly decorated room. Liu Ling sat next to the couch, holding his cheek and thinking about his thoughts. Hearing Liang Xiao's footsteps, she stood up to greet him.

"Are you tired?"

"It's okay." Liang Xiao smiled bitterly, "Those guys who have bad intentions actually want to impart me and want to ruin my daughter Chunxiao. It's really hateful."

Liu Ling hated him. "Okay, you are a little crazy, and you can't blame others."

Liang Xiao hugged Liu Ling in his arms and laughed proudly. "I am a commoner. If I marry a proud daughter like you, I can't be more crazy? If it were someone else, I'm afraid I'm not a crazy man, but I'm going to fly to the sky, right?"

"Good luck is the hiding misfortune, how can you know how prosperous today is, and why not the tragedy of the next day?" Liu Ling dragged Liang Xiao to the edge of the bed, asked him to sit down, took off his shoes, fetched water, and prepared to wash Liang Xiao's feet. Liang Xiaoqi said, "Why do you need to do these things yourself? You are a bride today."

"I also want to be a bride and take care of my husband and children like an ordinary woman. Unfortunately, I don't have this opportunity."

Liang Xiao blinked his eyes, suddenly laughed, raised his feet, and used his toes to clamp Liu Ling's nose. Liu Ling patted him away, pinched him gently, and said angrily: "Okay, stop making trouble, do you know how worried I am now?"

"I know what you are worried about, but I don't think it's necessary." Liang Xiao squeezed his eyes. "What you should worry about is whether you will be laughed at when you wake up tomorrow morning. It's true that you are a bride, but there are a few old people in my family."

Liu Ling was stunned for a moment, then understood Liang Xiao’s meaning, gritted his silver teeth, and reached out his hand. Liang Xiao hugged her and rolled onto the couch. Just as Liu Ling was about to struggle, Liang Xiao suddenly said loudly: "Okay, it's getting late, and you can hear it, so you can disperse. Although you hide well, you have forgotten one thing, I am a sniffer. Want to hear my corner of the wall, do you have that good ear power?"

There was silence outside the house.

Liang Xiao said again: "Brother Qin, is your new sword your wife? I can't even bear to remove the corner of the wall. I scratched the newly-painted wall of my house, so you have to compensate me."

After a while, a scream came, and then a few laughter and scolding came, which was Qin Ge's voice.

"Why didn't this treacherous boy say it earlier? I've been squatting here for half a night and couldn't even enjoy the wine. I'll spare you today. I'll disturb you again in two days. I'll have to stop drunk."

Liang Xiao laughed and said, "Welcome at any time!"-
