Li Linfu is Ye Chang's most powerful pillar in the court, but he is not Ye Chang's only pillar.

Therefore, after leaving Li Linfu's mansion, Ye Chang did not return to his residence, and went straight to Xiangxuehai.

Now Xiang Xuehai is a relative of Gao Lishi's family. Of course, this is on the surface, but Yang Yuhuan is actually the backer. However, Yang Yuhuan is not very happy with plum blossoms, so although Xiang Xuehai's name has not changed, the flowers she planted have been replaced by peonies that Yang Yuhuan likes more.

This made Ye Chang feel a little regretful.

However, Xiangxuehai's business is better. Tea tasting has now become one of the most popular pastime activities for noble women in Chang'an City. Of course, it would be even better if we compare each other's glass mirrors while tasting tea.

Ye Chang only brought Shanzhi and four others here, and his clothes did not look outstanding. In this place where they were either rich or noble, they were a bit terrifying.

"Can Manager Gao be there?" Ye Chang asked the waiter inside at the counter.

Because of the foundation laid by Ye Chang, the waiter in the Xiangxue Sea does not have the same face as the waiter in the store who is despised the poor and loved the rich. Although he did not know Ye Chang, he smiled and said with a smile: "This man is looking for our shopkeeper? This is a bit unfortunate. Our shopkeeper has something to go out. If the man gives any instructions, the villain can also serve him.

Ye Chang frowned, and the companion next to him stepped forward and said, "Please find the shopkeeper back, just say that Ye Shiyilang is visiting."

"Ye Shiyilang?" The waiter was stunned at first, and then said happily: "Can it be Ye Shiyilang Xiuwu?

"Oh, it's actually Ye Sima. Please forgive me. There are too many people looking for a shopkeeper recently. Ye Sima asked to wait inside, and the villain will come to Sima to find the shopkeeper for Sima."

The waiter led Ye Chang into a quiet room. It was thought that this was the shopkeeper's visiting. After he sued the crime, Ye Chang was surrounded by him and said with a smile: "Sima's name is still very useful here."

"That's natural. Xiang Xuehai was managed by Sima." Another partner said in the direction.

Ye Chang himself didn't say anything. Even if Xiang Xuehai was managed by him, he now has his surname Gao.

Although Ye Chang gave the Xiang Xuehai to Yang Yuhuan, Yang Yuhuan could not come to ask about the teahouse himself, so he entrusted Gao Lishi to take care of it. Gao Lishi arranged for his own family to be the shopkeeper. Although this person was humble, it was actually a channel for Ye Chang to contact Yang Yuhuan and Gao Lishi in the palace, and it might even be the fastest channel.

Li Linfu's change in attitude made Ye Chang come here. If the power in the court is not enough to rely on, then he can only rely on the power in the palace.

Not long after, the shopkeeper Gao came over, with a smile on his face, and as soon as he entered the door, he bowed: "I heard that Ye Sima won a great victory in Jian'anzhou, and the court was discussing whether to offer prisoners to the palace. I never thought that Ye Sima would return to Chang'an."

"Some minor achievements are not worth mentioning." Ye Chang said.

"General Gao has been quite busy recently and has not left the palace for a long time." The executive knew Ye Chang's purpose, so he only said politely and said with a smile without waiting for him to inquire.

"Can you send me a letter to General Gao?" Ye Chang asked.

"Of course you can give it to me, but the villain is not sure whether General Gao can reply to the letter." The man said again.

"So I understand that." Ye Chang nodded without leaving any trust, and stood up and said, "I live in my own house. If General Gao wants to see me, you know where to look for me."

"Yes, the villain knows."

He left Xiangxuehai and Shanzhi asked in a low voice: "Why don't you leave a letter?"

"He got Gao Lishi's instructions, and I think Gao Lishi doesn't want to trek into this muddy water." Ye Chang sneered: "Although Gao Lishi is smart, he is too smart. He wants to place bets on all sides and not offend any side. No matter which side wins, he can get a share of the pie... I think it's beautiful, but I don't know that fencemen are the most annoying."

"It doesn't work here on Gao Lishi, so what if I do? Could it be that I will go and find the Imperial Concubine?"

"We need to use our strength to the imperial concubine. Let's go to Yuzhen Temple first to see what happened to Princess Yuzhen."

Shanzhi smiled and said, "Look at the situation on the Twenty-Nine Lord. If you want to see the Twenty-Nine Lord, just say it directly, and the monk will not laugh at you. Men and women are happy, and the principles of human ethics are, even monks, I know that this is…"

"Brother Third, have you changed your Dharma name?"

"What?"

"Don't do good and straightforwardness, but Xuanzang"

"Master Sanzang? Amitabha, I dare not change this Dharma name."

"Then why are you so verbose?" Ye Chang muttered.

Shanzhi smiled and touched his head, looked at Ye Chang with a look of wanting to speak but stopping. Ye Chang said: "The third brother said it directly, don't pretend there. You are straightforward, and you don't act like that. You are straight, and you don't do that.

"Then I'll just say it, do you want to marry the 29th noble master, or the girl from the Prince Li's family, or the girl in Jiang who stayed in Lushun?"

They rode their horses and walked along the streets of Chang'an City. Shanzhi suddenly asked this question. Ye Chang was stunned for a moment, then turned his face and looked at Shanzhi: "How could the third brother ask about this?"

"They asked me to ask." Shanzhi said: "They didn't dare to ask, so they pushed the monk to ask, knowing that I was brave."

He was a little proud of his words. Indeed, among all those who made friends with Ye Chang, from the beginning to the present, the only one who had not changed with Ye Chang's status and power was Shanzhi.

However, he still spoke in his words. Ye Chang thought for a while and then asked directly: "Who are they

"Brother Jia, Nan's second brother, Ye An, Ye Ying, Ye Ting, Zhang Langjun, Cen Langjun, Oh, and Xiang's donor, they all mentioned it."

This included all the people close to Ye Chang. Ye Chang was a little vigilant: "How did you mention it?

"Then I'll just say it."

"They asked third brother, you said, isn't it because there is a straight in your magic number?"

"Haha... they said that the Jiang girl in Lushun has a unknown origin, so she can be the outer room and not the main room, so she is not enough to be the inner courtyard for you, the fifth brother."

Shanzhi was the first to bring Jiang Mei out to say it, and there was a reason. Jiang Mei's origin was vaguely speculated among the senior management of Lushun. Everyone knew that this woman was carrying a big trouble, and it would be fine to hide in the Taoist temple to private meetings. But if she became a wife, she would have to make friends with other noble daughters for Ye Chang, and she would definitely not do it.

Shanzhi also had his own ideas. At first, he just wanted to make a living with Ye Chang, and then the two gradually had a friendship. In the future, Shanzhi hoped to use Ye Chang's hands to promote the Shi family. However, Ye Chang himself was more inclined to Taoism. If he married another female Taoist priest, it would put more pressure on the Shi family.

Ye Chang laughed: "It is impossible to regard him as his wife."

Shanzhi nodded, and then said, "Although the Twenty-Nine Lord has a noble status, if you marry her, you will be the prince-consort. Now, there is no prince-consort outside the Tang Dynasty. If you are the prince-consort, you will have to go back to Chang'an to live. Therefore, in their opinion, the twenty-Nine Lord should also keep a distance."

Ye Chang was a little silent and his face became ugly.

"The daughter of Mr. Li is a quiet personality and has the help of Mr. Li, so she is a good match." Shanzhi said this, and his eyes rolled around. Thinking that Li Tengkong was also dressed as a Taoist nun, he continued: "But... it's too thin and it's not suitable to have a child."

Originally, Ye Chang was a little serious, but after hearing the last sentence, his face couldn't help but calm down: "You monk also know what it is not suitable for raising a child?"

"Ahem...that's natural. If a person does not give birth to a child, who will offer to the monks?"

"When talking about this, monk, you don't understand very well. Monks just ask for offerings. One day, people in the world are willing to be monks, but no one in the world is offerings." Ye Chang said: "Therefore, the rules of monks must be changed. If you don't do it for a day and don't eat for a day, it is the right thing to do."

"If you don't work for a day, don't eat for a day... Wouldn't you let monks and lay people farm and work like you?" Shanzhi hesitated a little: "I'm afraid this is not a way of respecting monks..."

"Haha, I can't tell you clearly. The person who even moved the Bodhisattva statues to sit on him was actually talking about the way of ceremonial monks," Ye Chang laughed.

At this time, the monk Baizhang Huaihai had not yet created the precepts of Baizhang. Although since Master Huineng, some eminent monks and masters no longer accept the filth of Indian Buddhism, despise labor, and have gradually changed their desire to be proud of not working, but few monks really have to work on their own. Even the monk Baizhang, who advocated not being a day without eating, had not been born yet. Therefore, Ye Chang's view made Shanzhi feel a little uncomfortable.

"It's not the same thing..." Shanzhi slapped his head: "Oh, I've taken it away for you. What we said was not the same thing at all. By the way, in my opinion, the sound is good and is most suitable for hosting the inner courtyard."

"Xiang'er..." Ye Chang was stunned for a moment.

Xiang'er was the little girl he grew up watching. From the little maid who served him at first, to the younger sister-in-law Fang, to the lively and lively pretty girl now, he is one of the relatives he cares about the most and values. At first, when he saw her, Ye Chang thought of his daughter in another life. Although he no longer had this idea, he did only treat this little girl as his sister.

In this way, Xiang'er is now fifteen years old, and in this era, she is also at the age to get married.

"Whose idea is this... It must be your own, second brother, and only you have such a weird idea." Ye Chang's thoughts changed and he put aside the matter: "Second brother, don't intervene in this matter."

"But I think they make sense."

"How is it reasonable?"

"Now you have a foundation and a family fortune, everyone depends on you for a meal. It's okay for others to say that the relatives of your Ye family always say that you have to grow up soon and give birth to a bunch of babies earlier to inherit your family."

"I'm not in a hurry, what are they in a hurry?"

"Of course they are anxious. If that Mr. Jiang Nuguan has a baby, it would be fine. What should I say about a boy?"

Ye Chang felt a little bored and waved his hand: "Don't mention this matter."

"Ah, why?"

"It is important to solve the current situation first."

No matter when it is persuaded to get married, it is always a sad thing. Ye Chang imagined that he was going to go back to Xiuwu Wolong Valley to meet his sister-in-law. He had to have such persuasion, and his boredom became even stronger. However, he knew that Shanzhi was just stupid and had no scheming, so he was pushed out by everyone to talk about this matter. If someone mentioned it, he would be scolded by him.

When he arrived at Yuzhen Temple, as a royal Taoist temple, there were naturally guards in front of the gate. As soon as Ye Chang approached, the guard stopped and said, "Don't get close, who are you?"

"Please report it to me and say that Ye Shiyilang asked to see His Highness Princess Yuzhen," Ye Chang said.

The companion next to him came forward and handed a small bag, but the soldier refused to answer, waved his hand and said, "The eldest princess is not in the sight. If there is anything, come again next time."

"Please go in and report..."

"You are so noisy. When you say that the princess is not here, who else can you report to? Let's go away."

"This..." When the companion who went up to hand over the money was a little anxious, he looked back at Ye Chang, but Ye Chang's expression was a little wrong.

"I am Ye Chang. I want to see the twenty-nine noble masters. You can report it to me." Ye Chang said again.

"This, Sima Ye, don't make things difficult for me." The soldier scolded his companion, but did not dare to do so. He smiled bitterly and said, "The twenty-nine noble generals were named princesses, so they are not allowed to leave the palace. Even if I promise you to report it, the news will not reach her. Even if the news comes to her, she will not be able to leave the palace."

"You know me." Ye Chang raised his eyebrows.

"I don't hide it from Ye Sima. We are in the Northern Yaman, and I have heard of Ye Sima's name for a long time." The soldier said, "I asked me to wait yesterday. If Ye Sima comes, I will answer this way."

Ye Chang took a breath and his face was as deep as water.

As the guard said, he was embarrassed by the other party and had no meaning. Moreover, the guard also revealed a message that someone had known about his secret return to Chang'an as early as yesterday.

The news may only be leaked from Luoyang, and seven out of ten were leaked by Yang Shenming.

As for whether Yang Shenming was intentional or unintentional, Ye Chang felt it was not important. Yang Shenming knew that it was important to secretly return, but he still made a big fuss. His original intention was to harm others and benefit himself.

This guy is probably too self-centered and doesn't consider other people's feelings at all.

"Thank you for your true words." Ye Chang nodded to the soldier, turned around to signal to his companions, and left Yuzhen Temple.

"Next...where to go?" Shanzhi also realized that something was wrong. This time, it was not as simple as when he came out of Li Linfu's mansion.

Ye Chang narrowed his eyes, looked around, and suddenly laughed.

There are some people around, but these people have been following them for too long.

"Go back to your residence." Ye Chang said: "Let's wait."

"Wait?"

"How can the matter end here?" Ye Chang said: "I think that husband should have other means, so let's go back first."

Those who were hostile to him and made things difficult for him, since they knew that he was going back to Chang'an, were they just the rejection of these? I think there were other things waiting for him.
