Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Li Min felt a little sad when he heard Li Shimin's old and somewhat free and easy voice. Just yesterday morning, he came to Ganlu Hall alone and told him about Li Shimin's physical condition. The result was not  To Li Min's surprise, Li Shimin was silent for a long time after hearing this. Finally, he sighed and accepted the fact very calmly.  ¡ùr />

    "Father, don't worry. I'm preparing a few other things with my close friends, and they should be done soon. Then I will personally accompany my father to fulfill these wishes!" Li Min bowed and replied.

    When Li Shimin knew that he only had less than three months to live, although he accepted the fact very calmly, he suddenly remembered that although his life was very glorious, he still had some unfinished things on his mind, so he thought  Before he died, he had to fulfill these wishes one by one, so that he could leave without worries, so he asked Li Min to make preparations, and Sizi's marriage was just one of them.

    Hearing Li Min's answer, Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction. Among his unfinished matters, there were no national events. Instead, they were all his private matters. These matters involved some royal secrets and were not suitable.  To let outsiders know, that's why Li Min was asked to handle it in person, and Si Zi's marriage was naturally ranked first.

    Next, Li Min chatted with Li Shimin for a while, including state affairs and family matters. In addition, Li Shimin also specifically asked about the itinerary of Li Zhen, Li Yun and Li Ke. According to the news Li Min received, Li Zhen and Li Yun are now  They have arrived at the Bohai Bay and are about to enter the Yellow River. Li Ke has just arrived at Ceylon Island and it is estimated that it will take at least half a month to reach Chang'an.

    "Haha, fortunately, Liulang, you have people build steamships, which makes sea transportation several times faster than before. It used to take at least a year to reach us from the Mediterranean to the Tang Dynasty. But now it only takes two months. This is also  I was allowed to see Saburo again for the last time. In addition, I heard that the Queen of Rome also came with him, but this seemed a bit rash. Rome and Dawu were both initially appointed. As monarchs, they were both far away from the country.  What if someone in the country causes trouble?"

    Li Shimin sighed with emotion at first.  But then he thought about Li Ke and Irina I coming together, which made him a little dissatisfied as a father. He thought that their actions were too rash, and he was worried about a rebellion in their country.

    After hearing this, Li Min hurriedly defended his third brother Li Ke: "My father doesn't know, but Queen Irina is already pregnant with my third brother's child. She is now seven months pregnant"

    "Damn it! How come your third brother is getting more and more confused as he lives longer? Rome originally needed the queen to stabilize her, but now that she is pregnant, it is even more impossible to agree to bring her along!" Before Li Min finished speaking,  He was interrupted by Li Shimin who shouted angrily.

    At this time, Li Min could only smile bitterly and explain again: "Father, please calm down. Listen to what I have to say. In fact, it is not the third brother's fault for this matter. That Queen Irina is a very independent woman. She is  After hearing that you were sick, she insisted on seeing you, and even offered a cup of tea to you and your mother. In addition, she also admired our Tang Dynasty culture. She really wanted to see what the place where the third brother grew up was like.  , so no matter how much the third brother tried to persuade her, he could not change her determination, and in the end she had no choice but to let her come together."

    Li Shimin burst into laughter after hearing this.  Then he stopped and looked at Li Min and said, "By the way, your third brother doesn't really want to establish two queens, does he?"

    "Report to the Emperor Father. There is nothing we can do about it. The third brother and the third sister-in-law have a very good relationship. In addition, the third sister-in-law is the niece of the mother-in-law, so it is impossible to create another queen anyway. And Queen Irina  She also has a deep affection for the third brother. Not to mention anything else, just a Roman throne can double the third brother's power, and his future development potential is even more vast, so he definitely can't treat her as an ordinary person.  Concubines, establishing two queens is the best way." Li Min also said a little helplessly.

    Li Shimin was thoughtful after hearing this, and finally nodded helplessly.  After talking about Li Ke, Li Min was worried that Li Shimin would be tired, and it happened to be time for him to drink medicine, so Li Min personally fed Li Shimin to drink the medicine, then told him to take a good rest, and then he left the palace.

    On the east side of the Lizheng Hall, there is an exquisite palace near the East Palace. This palace is called Jinyang Palace. From this name, it can be seen that this is where Sizi lived.  Originally this palace was called Hanxiu Palace, but later after Si Zi lived here, it was renamed Jinyang Palace by Li Shimin. This shows Li Shimin's love for Si Zi.

    In Jinyang Palace, after Sizi came back, he locked himself in the palace alone, crawled on the bed and cried for a long time. In the end, he was so tired from crying that he fell asleep unknowingly.  The maids in the palace heard the princess crying and did not dare to disturb her. When Sizi woke up, it was already midnight.

    When Sizi woke up, he rubbed his red and swollen eyes and looked at her again.When she heard about her father's serious illness, she couldn't help but feel her nose sore and tears started to fall down again. However, she knew that things were already like this and it was useless no matter how much she cried, so she quickly stopped her tears.

    Sizi felt very hungry at this time. In addition to breakfast, she had not eaten lunch or dinner. However, Sizi had no appetite at all. She just sat up and drank a cup of hot tea, and then thought of the hope that her father had always cherished.  About getting married.

    Thinking of his own marriage, Sizi couldn't help but think of Shangguan Tingzhi. Although that man looked very ordinary and had no resemblance to his father or brother, even though Shangguan Tingzhi had completely different standards for choosing a mate than Sizi had previously set for himself.  , but the other party really touched her heart, which even Sizi herself couldn't deny.

    In the shadow of the swaying candle, Sizi walked to her dressing table and opened a sandalwood box on it. Inside was a box full of sundries, most of which were poems written by Shangguan Tingzhi to her.  , there are also some letters expressing friendship, and even some small gifts given to her by the other party. Sizi puts them here very preciously. Whenever she feels depressed, she will open the box and put the things inside one by one.  Take it out and appreciate it, it will make her feel better quickly.

    Today, Si Zi was in a sad mood, but she did not use this method to make herself feel better, because she knew it was useless. After all, it was related to her father's life and death, and the love between a man and a woman could not be diluted.

    However, when Sizi looked at the contents in the box, she couldn't help but think of the scene when she and Shangguan Tingzhi got along, which made a sweet smile appear on her lips.  But soon Si Zi sighed, and then looked at the things in the box with complicated eyes. After a long time, Si Zi suddenly whispered to himself: "Although this feeling is good, it's time to end this inseparable relationship."  Now, Shangguan Tingzhi, I¡¯m ready, I wonder if you can accept a princess as your wife?¡±

    At the same time that Si Zi was talking to himself, in the inner house of a mansion in the south of the east city of Chang'an City, a handsome young man was sitting alone in a pavilion under the moonlight, holding a folding fan in his hand. On the opened fan, there were paintings  There is an extremely beautiful girl. If you look carefully, you will find that the charm of the girl in the painting is the same as that of Si Zi, and next to the girl, there is a line of small words.

    "Master Mingda gives it to you!" The young man read out the small words on it softly. The look on his face was full of infatuation, but there was a bit of pain in his tone.

    This young man was naturally Shangguan Tingzhi. He and Sizi met by chance in a Taoist temple. At that time, Sizi was dressed as a female crown, and her Taoist name was Mingda Zhenren. Mingda is the character of Sizi, which is also her maiden name. Except for Li Shimin,  Except for these elders and brothers and sisters like Li Min, few outsiders knew Si Zi's name, and it was naturally impossible for Shangguan Tingzhi to guess anything from this name.

    "Mingda, Mingda, you have been missing for more than a month. No matter how hard I look for you, I can't find you, and the people in the Taoist temple refuse to tell you. Are you really tired of getting along with me, so you are hiding in this way without telling me?"  Are you going to never see me again?" The look of pain on Shangguan Tingzhi's face was even worse. He even picked up the wine bottle on the table and drank several swigs before stopping.

    The reason why Shangguan Court is so painful is probably Sizi's fault.  When Li Shimin fell off his horse, Sizi immediately rushed back to the palace from the Taoist temple after receiving the news. In his panic, he did not even think of saying goodbye to Shangguan Tingzhi. Later, he was even more worried about Li Shimin's health and was not in the mood to contact him again. As a result,  He only knew that one of the Shangguan Ting who went to the Taoist temple to meet Si Zi suddenly lost the news about Si Zi, so he misunderstood and thought that Si Zi never wanted to see him again.

    It's just that Shangguan Tingzhi is indeed an infatuated person. Even though he feels that he has been abandoned by Si Zi, he still remains infatuated. Tonight, he felt irritable and couldn't sleep either, so he came to the yard and planned to relax.  But he accidentally saw the folding fan in his hand, and it suddenly reminded him of Si Zi.

    The folding fan in Shangguan Tingzhi¡¯s hand was a gift from Si Zi, and it also had a self-portrait drawn by Si Zi himself.  Speaking of which, when a woman gives her portrait to a man, it is almost equivalent to the two becoming in love.  Shangguan Tingzhi also thought so, but precisely because of this, he felt even more sad about Sizi's disappearance.

    Thinking of the happiness he had when he got along with Sizi, Shangguan Tingzhi felt even more sad. He even forgot the ancient adage that "a man should not shed tears easily", and he kept crying while drinking. In the end, the drink and tears came together.  Pouring it into your mouth, there is an indescribable bitterness when mixed together.

    In the end, Shangguan Tingzhi, who was too drunk, fell drunk directly in the pavilion, but he kept shouting "Mingda! Mingda!"
