In the afternoon, dusk, when the sky was about to be dark, it was also time for Li Ke to hold a banquet. The inside and outside of Pingkangfang gradually became lively, and the guests invited by Li Ke were also coming in a crowd.

Li Ke’s identity is here. No matter where he holds a banquet, it is naturally of extremely high standards. Today, where Li Ke holds a banquet is located is the third floor of Xieyu Building.

The third floor of the entire Xieyu Building is the most expensive brothel private room in the entire Xieyu Building and even Chang'an City. Moreover, the third floor has only three private rooms, which is hard to find.

It seems that it is also for the sake of the difference. The decorations under the Xieyu Tower are already very elegant and rare, while the third floor is more luxurious in the elegantness.

"I heard for a long time that Xieyu Tower is one of the best brothels in Chang'an City. The third floor of this Xieyu Tower is hard to find. If it weren't for an important distinguished guest, there would always be more money to come. It was really good today." At the beginning of the banquet, he sat down in the main and second place. At the same time, Zhang Gongjin, a hero of the Northern Expedition, told Li Ke.

Zhang Gongjin was a border general and had been guarding the border in Hedong for a long time. Although he was a Duke of the Kingdom, he did not often come to Xieyu Tower. Zhang Gongjin, who was used to the wind and sand in the north, was inevitably a little surprised when he saw him today.

Li Ke smiled and said, "Governor Zhang has been in the border area for a long time, do you know Xieyu Tower?"

Zhang Gongjin said, "Your Highness is kidding. Although the last generals don't often stay in Chang'an City for a long time, they often go to Beijing to report their duties at the end of the year. Pingkangfang has also been here, how could they not know?"

As soon as Zhang Gongjin's words fell, Qin Huaidao said, "What my uncle said is very true. Not to mention Chang'an, but Luoyang and Yangzhou, who doesn't know the name of Your Highness? How many brothel women are looking at you?"

Zhang Gongjin was also an old general of Tiance Mansion. He was a colleague of Qin Shubao and was also an old friend of many years. Therefore, Qin Huaidao called Zhang Gongjin "Uncle".

Zhang Gongjin smiled and said, "In this way, we have thanked His Highness for his blessing."

Qin Huaidao said: "That's natural, not to mention anything else. It costs thousands of guan a night to spend on a private room in Xieyu Tower, and not everyone can make it. Apart from Your Highness, there are probably few people in Chang'an City who can make it as you please."

Qin Huaidao is also a veteran in the Chang'an City Festival. He doesn't know the rules of each brothel in Pingkangfang. Qin Huaidao and Li Ke are in the same siblings. Qin Huaidao also comes with Li Ke in Xieyulou, so naturally he knows it.

Zhang Gongjin said: "Haha, Your Highness is young and romantic, no one knows inside and outside Chang'an."

Qin Huaidao laughed and said, "What my uncle said is, but not all. The Xieyulou sold his pride in the palace, not only because of His Highness's reputation, but also because of His Highness's domineeringness. His Highness was furious and led his troops to surround Xieyulou. How dare Xieyulou not give him a pride in the palace."

"Hahaha..."

Li Ke had no airs at all, especially when he spoke to the generals in the army. As soon as Qin Huaidao said, everyone in the room laughed.

And just as everyone was joking, Changsun Chong, who was originally called to teach a lesson by Changsun Wuji, finally arrived.

"I have delayed my work due to trivial matters at home. I called the Grand Commander and asked Your Highness to wait for a long time. I hope you won't blame me." As soon as Changsun rushed into the door, he bowed and smiled at everyone.

Li Ke smiled and said, "Haha, it's my youngest son of the Tang Dynasty who is here."

Changsun Chong was appointed as the Minister of Rites for his merits. The Minister of Rites was named Chunguan. The Minister of Rites was in charge of rituals and sacrifices, and was also called Dazongbo. The Minister of Rites, as the assistant official of the Minister of Rites, was also called Shaozongbo, so Li Ke had this name.

Shao Zongbo is an elegant name for the Minister of Rites. He is a respectful title for local officials or subordinates in the ministry. It would be okay if others call it like this. However, Li Ke is the prince, and Changsun Chong is considered half a subordinate of Li Ke. If Li Ke calls this again, he is just joking with Changsun.

Changsun Chong also smiled and said, "Governor-General, please stop saying that. If you say that, you will be a scattered minister."

Changsun Chong's words fell, and Pei Xingjian, who was standing beside him, smiled and said, "Zi Jing Guan is the young master. You are not willing to call you an official title. Could it be that I am so anxious to take Princess Changle and become the sister-in-law of the Grand Governor?"

Changsun Chong is Princess Changle's fiancée. This time, Changsun Chong made contributions and returned to the capital, and it was recently a matter of marriage to Princess Changle. Princess Changle Li Lizhi is also a princess, and Li Ke's sister is the same father. If Changsun Chong marrys Li Lizhi in the future, he will naturally be Li Ke's sister-in-law, and Pei Xingjian's words are not wrong.

As soon as Pei Xingjian said, Changsun Chong's face turned red. Changsun Chong sat down in the empty seat in the table and smiled and said, "I and the Grand Governor are subordinates of the superiors and subordinates, and in the future they will be relatives of brothers. The Grand Governor can call me the word "公司" in the future, and call my sister-in-law. But please do not call the official name."

Li Ke heard this and asked, "Did Zijing and Changle have a date for their marriage?"

Changsun Chong replied truthfully: "According to the wishes of Your Majesty and the Queen, it will be set in October."

Li Ke nodded and said, "October? Isn't that going soon?"

Changsun Chong said, "It's really fast. It's less than two months. When I get married, I'll ask the Grand Governor and you all to enjoy the glory."

Li Ke said: "I will still be in Chang'an in October, and I will definitely go there by then. Moreover, I will not only go there, but will also prepare you a gift that you have coveted for a long time."

"A generous gift that I have been coveting for a long time?" Changsun Chong couldn't help but feel confused on his face as he heard Li Ke's words.

The Changsun family was originally a family of noble families and even more of a noble relative. Changsun Chong had something to ask for but could not get what Changsun Chong had been coveting for a long time, and everyone sitting at the table was also a little curious.

Changsun Chong himself didn't know what Li Ke meant, but after he thought about it, he vaguely understood what Li Ke meant. Li Ke was probably referring to the "Thirteen Lines of the Goddess of Luo River" collected by Li Ke in the Chu Palace.

"Thirteen Lines of the Goddess of Luo River" was written by Wang Xianzhi, a master of calligraphy in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. Wang Xianzhi's name is Zijing, which is the same as Changsun Chong's character. Moreover, the two have similar temperaments and are elegant and easy-going. Most of the reason is that Changsun Chong highly praised Wang Xianzhi and loves his works very much, and he tries his efforts to collect them.

"The Thirteen Circles of the Goddess of the Goddess of the Luo River" is a representative work of Wang Xianzhi. Changsun Chong naturally wanted to get it long ago, but this "The Thirteen Circles of the Goddess of the Luo River" was hidden in the palace in the past and was not known to outsiders.

It was also by chance that Li Shimin gave this "Thirteen Lines of the Goddess of Luo River" to Li Ke, who was quite accomplished in calligraphy, so that his masterpiece was released. For this calligraphy and painting, Changsun Chong once looked like Li Ke for a long time before borrowing it to look at it.

"The Thirteen Journeys of the Goddess of Luo River" is of course of great significance to Changsun Chong, but isn't it true for Li Ke?

Li Shimin likes Wang Xizhi's calligraphy the most and copy it every day, and Wang Xianzhi is Wang Xizhi's most proud son. Li Shimin gave Li Ke the "Thirteen Lines of the Goddess of Luo River" to Li Ke, which naturally means to encourage Li Ke. But now Li Ke has the intention of giving "Thirteen Lines of the Goddess of Luo River" to him because of Changsun Chong's wedding. How could Changsun Chong not be touched?

This time, before Changsun Chong came to the banquet, Changsun Wuji repeatedly reminded Changsun Chong to draw a clear line with Li Ke and avoid contact with him. However, Li Ke treated him with sincerity and even gave him the treasure given by Li Shimin. Changsun Chong is such a gentleman of peace, how could he be even more careful?
