Li Xiuzhu smiled when he heard this.

"Of course, if your restaurant is to expand, female service staff are essential, mainly on the second floor and for performances. The service staff on the first floor are mainly men."

"Women are also welcome in the private rooms. I believe that with our father and I'm proud of you, no one in the private rooms will dare to disobey the rules."

Fu Yunshuang's eyes lit up when she heard this. The ideas her brother-in-law mentioned were all ideas for making a lot of money.

Fu Yunshuang hesitated for a moment and asked, "Brother-in-law, should we raise the price?"

"Of course, but we are not increasing the prices of dishes. It is not easy to increase the prices of dishes for the time being. We have to wait for the right time."

"But we can get a minimum consumption for a private room."

"This way, we can make a small profit from this part of the expenses. Once the popularity increases and there is no disaster, we can raise the price."

Fu Yunshuang's eyes lit up and she nodded immediately.

Anyway, they made money from wealthy businessmen, so there is no question of them taking advantage of the situation. They can still provide porridge and do charity in the future.

Li Xiuzhu talked about these things mainly to change the subject, and now that he had finished talking, the topic naturally dispersed.

Li Xiuzhu followed Fu Yuehua to her room without waiting for her to say anything, which immediately made Fu Yuehua feel very embarrassed.

Mainly the bride, she also heard Li Xiuzhu's thoughts and knew his purpose.

That night, Li Xiuzhu asserted his authority as a husband and made Fu Yuehua beg for mercy.

Jin Ping was also promoted to concubine because of Fu Yuehua's consent.

The next morning, Li Xiuzhu went to court in high spirits without even sleeping.

In fact, at his current stage, whether to sleep or not is purely a matter of preference, and not sleeping will not make him feel comfortable at all.

Arriving at the Council Hall, Li Kuo came out within two minutes.

Li Kuo didn't play tricks today and said directly: "My dear Li, please come here."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiuzhu stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Your Majesty, I, Li Xiuzhu, am returning to the capital to report."

"I fought with Silla at Juyong Pass and annihilated the enemy..."

"The Northern Expedition Army marched north to annihilate the enemy..."

"captive……"

"The above is my complete report on this Northern Expedition."

Li Kuo nodded in satisfaction after hearing this and said, "General Li Xiuzhu of the Cavalry has made great contributions to our country in this northern expedition. I would like to confer the title of Marquis of Guanjun on you. What do you think?"

At this moment, everyone looked at each other, and just when someone was about to object, Li Xiuzhu stood up first.

"Your Majesty, my stomach is not in good condition. I really need to rest for a few years."

"Your Majesty, just give me the idle and unemployed position I had before."

Li Kuo and the officials' mouths twitched slightly when they heard this. It was the first time they had seen someone so calm and nonchalant.

But Li Kuo would naturally not do that, otherwise who would work for him in the future?

"My dear, you will soon be the consort of the emperor. This position should be higher. But since the consort of the emperor wants to be the Marquis of Xiaoyao, I will grant your request."

"Listen!"

Li Xiuzhu was satisfied, and his goal was to be able to play badly.

Li Xiuzhu bowed, and the next second Li Kuo started to read: "Appoint Li Xiuzhu as the Marquis of Guanjun, enjoy 3,000 towns, reward 500 acres of good farmland, 10,000 gold, 20 beauties, and 100 pieces of brocade."

Hearing Li Kuo's voice stop, Li Xiuzhu immediately said: "Your Highness Li Xiuzhu accepts your order."

Because it was a nominal position, no one objected this time.

Moreover, Li Kuo is the emperor, and his words are as good as gold. He has made it clear that he wants to be conferred a title of nobility. If you continue to make trouble, you would be ignorant of the rules.

Li Kuo was very satisfied with the scene before him, and continued, "Another auspicious day is three days from now, so the wedding of the prince consort and the princess will be scheduled for three days from now."

???

So anxious? Although he thought so, Li Xiuzhu did not refute.

"Is this, your majesty, too hasty?"

Although Li Xiuzhu did not refute, it does not mean that no one objected. It was simply that the time was too short.

"It's not short. The Ministry of Rites has already made preparations. Now all that's left is the announcement."

After hearing what Li Kuo said, everyone fell silent for a moment. It seemed that this was the case.

Well, what else can I say.

"That's settled then."

Li Xiuzhu watched the whole show as if nothing had happened, and he almost grabbed a handful of melon seeds.

"There is one more thing. I intend to let General Li take charge of the autumn hunt. What do you think, my dear ministers?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then father-in-law Fu Wenhan stepped forward first.

"Your Majesty, I wonder who this General Li is."

There is no way, as my son-in-law is also one of the generals with the surname Li.

No matter whether he has stepped down or not, a general is still a general.

Li Kuo smiled when he heard this.

"I blame you for not making it clear. I was talking about General Li Dan."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Li Dan is also a veteran, and the only veteran still alive in the capital. Su Qi and Luo Shicheng are both at the border.

Hearing that Li Kuo was talking about Li Dan, Fu Wenhan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "General Li Dan is a veteran who is mature and steady in his work. I think your majesty has made a good choice."

Suddenly a group of ministers stood up.

"I second this motion."

Upon hearing this, Crown Prince Li Chengze suddenly smiled.

He thought his smile was hidden but he didn't know his father saw it all.

It seems that Li Dan has already relied on the prince.

The current situation seems to be that Li Kuo is surrounded by enemies on all sides, but he is not worried because he has no shortage of backup plans.

"If there is something to report, then report it. If there is nothing to report, then report it."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiuzhu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I want to go see the two princesses."

Li Kuo smiled when he heard this.

"Allowed!"

After waiting for a few minutes and seeing that no one else was coming to report, Wang Defa shouted, "Dismiss the court!"

Li Xiuzhu waited for everyone to leave before going to Fengyang Tower as arranged by Wang Defa.

Just like before Li Xiuzhu left, Li Biyao now just stares blankly when she has nothing to do.

"Yinzhan, you said the prince consort is back. When do you think he will come to see me?"

"Hehe, Princess, you are totally different now than you were before. You used to be so free and easy."

After a pause, he continued, "I think the prince consort will definitely come in the next few days, so there is no need for Princess to worry."

At the same time, in another boudoir, Li Liuli frowned, not knowing what she was thinking.

Obviously, she also knew that Li Xiuzhu was back.

But she didn't know whether to escape or not.

Because of Iris, she discovered Cheng Yu's true face. Of course, she didn't know that it was Iris who designed her to see it. She just thought it was a coincidence.

Now she is a little at a loss. She still can't let go of her previous resistance that made her become Li Xiuzhu's bride calmly.

But now she couldn't even find a reason to convince herself to fight.

"Ah~ Iris, do you think I really want to marry Li Xiuzhu?"

"I really don't want to get married!"

Iris smiled when she heard this. Her master was extremely arrogant and said one thing but acted upright.

For example, now, she clearly said that she didn't want to get married, but more than half a month has passed since Cheng Yu's incident, and she hasn't thought of any measures to deal with not wanting to get married.

It was as if she had accepted her fate and was waiting to get married! "Princess, we are from the royal family. We have no choice."

"Can you still disobey my order?"

"If nothing else, she will definitely be banished to the cold palace."

"Princess, you have seen what life is like in the cold palace. Let's not talk about other things, can you bear the food?"
