Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In recent years, the Tang Dynasty has been very quiet on the military front, and rarely made any big moves.  Several neighboring countries are also very honest. For example, the Western Turks are currently experiencing civil strife. The leaders of several tribes have declared themselves Great Khans and are fighting with each other endlessly. Coupled with the secret instigation of the Tang Dynasty, it is estimated that there will be no peace for more than ten years.  Not coming down anymore.

    In addition, Tubo is also very honest, because they also have internal problems. The local Bon religion and the foreign Buddhism are fighting endlessly. Originally, this situation was not too serious, but later with the Tang Dynasty exporting Buddhism to Tubo, and  Songtsen Gampo was also very angry about Bon's control of government affairs, so he secretly supported Buddhism. This led to the intensification of conflicts between Bon and Buddhism. The battle between the two religions has become fierce, and there have even been many conflicts.  Bloodshed.

    Both Tubo and Western Turks had too much to take care of themselves. Industry and commerce in the Tang Dynasty developed rapidly. Although agriculture declined slightly, there was no shortage of food in the country due to the input of food from Linyi and other places. In addition, there was also the development of the marine fishing industry.  As a result, seafood began to enter the mainland, and the prices were relatively cheap, which made the tables of ordinary people richer.

    Food is the most important thing for the people. As long as there is something to eat in their kitchens, the people will feel that this is a prosperous age.  However, although the people of the Tang Dynasty were happy and healthy, conflicts still broke out from time to time in the palace and court.

    "No, I don't agree!" In the Lizheng Hall of Taiji Palace, Queen Changsun scolded Li Zhi in front of her angrily, without any trace of her past maternal demeanor.

    If it were normal times, Li Zhi would have trembled under the anger of Queen Changsun, but today Li Zhi has his own beliefs.  Although he lowered his head, he still insisted: "Mother, my son, I only want you to be your concubine, and I don't want anyone else!"

    I saw my son disobeying me for the first time.  This made Empress Changsun stunned, but then she said angrily: "If I say no, it won't be possible. Your father and I will make the decision regarding the Crown Princess, and you don't have to worry about anything else!"

    "Mother"

    Li Zhi wanted to say something more, but Empress Changsun waved her hand and said: "Okay, stop talking and stand down!"

    Seeing his mother driving him out, Li Zhi wanted to argue a few more words, but when his eyes met the angry eyes of Empress Changsun.  But he was so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything anymore, turned around and left Wangyun Palace.

    Li Zhi had already expected Empress Changsun's opposition, and he could also understand his mother's mood.  In fact, it's very simple to say. The eldest brother's position as prince was deposed, and the fourth brother, King Wei, was also demoted from Chang'an. This left his mother as the only one left, and he could sit on the throne.  My mother also put in a lot of effort.  It is no exaggeration to say that now my mother has placed all her hopes on herself, so she will never allow any factors to affect her succession.

    But unfortunately, Cai'er's identity will have an impact on Li Zhi's position as prince.  After all, she is the direct granddaughter of the former Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. Although the Tang Dynasty is now very stable, there are still many veterans who have experienced the turmoil in the late Sui Dynasty.  She doesn't have a good impression of the former Sui royal family, if Cai'er really becomes the crown princess.  Although those veterans may not say anything, it will have a certain impact on Li Zhi's position as prince.  After all, most of those veterans held great power, and Empress Changsun didn't want a marriage to affect the relationship between Li Zhi and those veterans.

    Thinking of this, Li Zhi sighed and shook his head.  Queen Changsun's worry is not unreasonable, but he really likes Cai'er and will marry her no matter what, so Li Zhi doesn't intend to give up. It doesn't matter if he can't convince Queen Changsun today. Anyway, he can still convince his father Li Shimin. In addition,  He had already sent a letter to Li Min a few days ago, and counting the days, the letter should arrive.

    Thinking of this, Li Zhi hurriedly left the palace, and then went to the Dengxian Tower to find Wang Zihao.  Wang Zihao received Li Min's order a year ago and began to transfer Chang'an's properties to Taiwan. However, because he and Prince Qi's mansion had too many properties in Chang'an, some of which still needed to be sold, so they were all busy.  Years have passed, but it still hasn't been dealt with, and this also shows in disguise how terrifying his and Li Min's industry here is.

    When Li Zhi came, Wang Zihao was writing a letter to Li Min. He usually reported various situations that happened in Chang'an to Li Min the next day, and he used flying pigeons to deliver the letter along the way. It took him a few days to arrive.  Li Zhi and Cai'er's letters were all sent to each other through him.

    "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, came just in time. Your Majesty's reply has just arrived. I'm about to send it to you!" When Wang Zihao saw Li Zhi, he immediately stood up and bowed to salute.

    And Li Zhi was extremely happy when he heard that Sixth Brother's reply had finally arrived. He hurriedly walked over and said: "Where is Sixth Brother's letter? Hurry up and get it."Show me!  "

    Seeing Li Zhi¡¯s anxious look, Wang Zihao calmly took out a hand-sized note from the drawer of the table. Letters carried by carrier pigeons were naturally not too big, so they usually had such small notes.

    When Li Zhi grabbed the note and saw what was written on it, he was stunned for a moment, and then the expression on his face seemed a little confused. After a while, the confusion turned into hesitation.  He seemed to be undecided, but he did not forget to thank Wang Zihao, and then returned to the Prince's Mansion while thinking deeply.

    And at this moment, Li Min, who was far away in Taiwan, was leaning on a recliner, rocking from time to time. Wen Xin next to him was gently rocking a crib. Nanyang was already asleep on the bed, and he was still shaking from time to time.  Move your little mouth, as if you are sucking milk in a dream.

    This is the back garden of Prince Qi's Mansion in Keelung City, and the place Li Min and the others are in is a flowing water pavilion. The so-called flowing water pavilion is actually a large pavilion that is surrounded by water on all sides and has only a long corridor to pass through. However, above the pavilion, there are  However, there are three water diversion pipes made of bamboo tubes. These water diversion pipes lead water from high places to the pavilion, and then form an artificial water curtain around the pavilion. Through the action of water flow, the purpose of cooling the road is achieved.

    In fact, when Li Min was in Sixi, he built a stone house that used water to cool down. However, the temperature there was not too high, so it was not very useful. Now that he lives in Taiwan for a long time, he often has to face Taiwan's  The temperature was too high, so he built several more such pavilions in the palace for daily use.

    But everyone was very busy today. Wu Meiniang received news that one of the five chiefs in Linyi seemed to have something strange, and she needed to deal with it.  Xijun is even more busy integrating various industries in Prince Qi's Mansion in order to maximize profits. In addition, the industries moved from the Tang Dynasty also need her to settle.

    Mengxue even goes to medical school every day. Speaking of Taiwan¡¯s population shortage, men are busy starting their own careers, so the medical school first began to openly recruit female students. Now most of the students studying in the medical school are female students.  Male students have several separate classes.  As for Jin Shengman, she is even more busy. The trivial government affairs that used to burden Li Min are now all handled by her. In the end, she only needs Li Min to review them.

    Chou Chou and Ao Ao have already started going to school. Li Min has set up an aristocratic school next to the palace. Only the children of some civil and military officials can go to school there. Of course, men and women are still separated. Without these two troublemakers, the palace will be quiet in the morning.  A lot.  It is precisely because of this that there are only two people today, Li Min and Wen Xin.

    Originally, Li Min wanted to have a two-person world with Wen Xin, but Wen Xin was reluctant to let her son leave. As a result, Li Min couldn't resist her and had to let Nanyang follow.  Now Nanyang is just one year old, which is the cutest time, and he can already call his father and mother. Although his walking is still a little unsteady, as long as he practices more, he will probably be able to run around in a few days.

    The weather was too hot today, so Li Min and Wen Xin took Nanyang to the Liushui Pavilion to rest. At first, the little guy Nanyang had a lot of fun, but he soon became sleepy. Fortunately, Wenxin had already asked someone to put the crib away  He also moved over, but the boy fell asleep as soon as he lay on the bed.

    Looking at his sleeping son, Li Min suddenly leaned into Wen Xin's ear and smiled: "Wen Xin, do you think our son will be as careless as our ninth brother when he grows up? No matter how we object, he will always  Do you want to marry the person you like?"

    Wen Xin's ears were itched by the hot breath that Li Min exhaled when he spoke. She ducked away with a smile and said with a joking face: "This is very possible. Didn't my husband also marry me under the pressure of his mother and concubine?  , with you as a role model, our son is probably just like his ninth uncle, he will definitely be a disobedient child."

    "Hey, I never said I liked you at the beginning, but I think since we are engaged, we must abide by the engagement, otherwise you will not be able to get married!" Li Min also deliberately joked.  However, his words triggered a beating from Wen Xin. In the end, Li Min took the initiative to beg for mercy and even threatened to wake up his son, which made Wen Xin stop.

    However, after both of them calmed down, Wen Xin frowned and said, "Husband, if Ninth Brother and Cai'er want to marry, there will be huge resistance. Since you already knew that they had written letters, why?  If we simply intercepted their letters and the two lost contact, wouldn¡¯t the current situation be over?¡±

    Hearing Wen Xin¡¯s question, Li Min had a wry smile on his face.  When Cai'er first went to Chang'an, Li Min felt that Li Zhi treated Cai'er a little differently, which aroused his alarm. Later, after Yang Xian's death, Li Min let Cai'er live with him, hoping to distance himself.  After that, the two gradually lost contact, but unexpectedly they started writing letters.  They already felt guilty when Li Min separated. If they intercepted their letters again, it would be very embarrassing.?He was too despicable, so in the end Li Min had to let them develop.  What Li Min didn't expect was that Li Zhi and Cai'er actually took five years to write. Now even Li Min was a little shocked and couldn't bear to break them up.  (To be continued. Mobile phone users please go to read.)
