Chapter 645: The Wu Clan Has a Daughter
After Zhang Jia left, the rain gradually became heavier. In the long-drought Northland, everyone is happy, and the streets are full of people who are running in surprise, and they don't think that it is a bad thing for the rain to wet their clothes.
The rain became heavier and heavier, and there was no intention of stopping at noon. There were fewer people reveling on the streets, and only the sound of rain remained in Chang'an City.
Li Shimin went down in the morning in the red sky, and then sat in the Ganlu Hall for breakfast, when the Fang Sheren ran in very excitedly and shouted, "Your Majesty, it's raining." ”
Li Shimin didn't care about breakfast, and when he went out, he saw that the red glow in the sky had long since disappeared, and it was really raining.
"Your Majesty, look at this rain, this crop, it is saved. Fang She was very excited.
"Hmm. Li Shimin looked at the cloudy sky, and he was also happy, but he was obviously not as excited as Fang Sheren.
He stood in front of the door of the temple of manna for a moment, and then went back to continue his review. Now, the matter of Shannan Province and Jiannan Province is very delicate, and the news that Beidi has returned says that Jieli and Tuli have reached a consensus again, and after a fight, they have joined hands again. Recently, the Turks are still in the vicinity of Shuofang and Xiazhou, and seem to be watching in the Central Plains. If the south does not handle it properly, the Turks will probably take advantage of the chaos in the south and deal with the north.
In addition, the appearance of the prophecy stone of "Li Xing of the Wu Dynasty after the third generation of the Tang Dynasty" made him very worried. If it is said that this stone was made by someone with a heart. So, what's the purpose?
Looking at the territory of Datang, there are few people surnamed Wu who are a little promising. The only one who has a lot of connections to the royal family is Samurai Tong. This man was only a businessman in the timber business, and he was good at drilling. His father took him into the Li family and let him secretly run the Li family's industry.
Later, when the Li family raised troops, he naturally followed suit. The Li family became the family of the Son of Heaven, and this warrior Tong also became an official. Because his martial arts family background is very thin, it can be regarded as a poor family. Gaozu found a family for the samurai Tong who had died of his wife, and asked him to marry a beautiful concubine of the Hongnong Yang family. After the Yang family married into the martial family, they gave birth to two daughters.
"Could it be this family? He just happened to have a baby girl. Li Shimin frowned, thinking to himself.
Although he had handed over this matter to Yuanbao, the stakes were so high that he couldn't help but want to.
Outside, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it seemed that it was time for lunch, but it had not stopped, and the sky was getting darker and darker. Fang Sheren hurriedly lit a few more lamps and carefully moved to the desk.
"Your Majesty, look carefully, it's too dark this day. Fang Sheren reminded in a low voice.
"What's going on outside?" Li Shimin put down the pen in his hand.
"The rain is getting heavier. Fang Sheren smiled and said, "I see that the crops must be saved." This drought has finally been driven away. ”
Li Shimin was not so optimistic, he remembered that Yang Gongren said that his niece said that there would be a locust plague after the drought, and after the locust plague, it would be the rainy season, and he was afraid that there would be floods. The locust plague was prevented, and the drought was overcome, but the flood came every year.
For more than a year, the Ministry of Industry was busy building water conservancy.
Can you resist it?
Li Shimin walked to the door of the Ganlu Palace, looked at the rain that was getting heavier and heavier, and was worried. He stood for a moment, and then said to the other party, "You have people go to the Propaganda Department and everyone to come to the Ganlu Temple." ”
"Yes. Fang Sheren answered, and immediately went to order the little eunuch to go to the Ministry of Works.
Li Shimin turned around and returned to the Manna Palace, where the ingots were already kneeling on the ground.
"Meet Your Majesty. Yuan Bao saluted.
Li Shimin waved his hand to signal Yuanbao to get up, and then, he sat down and asked, "How?"
"Your Majesty, there are not many people with the surname Wu. According to the national teacher, there are not many female babies with the surname Wu. There are three in Chang'an City. Two are ordinary merchants, one is an iron striker, and the other is a tofu seller. The other is the Samurai family of the Governor of Lizhou. Wu Shi Tong served in Lizhou, and his wife was the daughter of Yang Da of the Hongnong Yang family, and last month, he returned to Chang'an with his two daughters and lived in the former house of the Wu family. Yuan Bao reported very calmly.
He has been by His Majesty's side for many years, and of course he knows the relationship between Wu Shi Tong and the Li family. Wu Shi Tong was a poor businessman, and because of his talent and wisdom, he was valued by Tang Duke Li Yuan, and then let Wu Shi Tong take charge of the Li family's business. As a result, Wu Shi Tong was ostensibly the head of the Eagle Yang Mansion, but in fact he was secretly collecting money for the Li family.
Later, the Li family won the world, and Gaozu wanted him to be the secretary of the Ministry of Works. It's a shame that this person is still self-aware, knowing that his talent is not enough to be competent, and he repeatedly resigned. Later, he was sent to Yangzhou to make a long history to investigate the rebellion of Li Cungong, the king of Zhao County.
After the Xuanwumen Change, Li Xiaochang, the governor of Lizhou, who was the remnant of the hidden prince, entered Beijing and contacted the Praetorian Guard officer Liu Deyu and the eldest grandson Anye to plot rebellion, but the eldest grandson Wuji saw through it, and all three were killed. This time, His Majesty sent the cautious Samurai Tong to Lizhou to serve as the governor.
"Wu Shi Tong is serving in Lizhou, what are his wives and daughters doing when they return to Chang'an?" asked Li Shimin.
It is reported that his wife gave birth to a second daughter and injured her body, and when she heard that Dr. Wang Jingtian was in Chang'an, she asked her to take her to Chang'an for medical treatment. Yuan Bao replied.
"Wang Jingtian, the eldest disciple of the divine doctor Shen Qianchou?" asked Li Shimin.
Back then, Shen Qianchou could be regarded as saving his life. He also had a relationship with Wang Jingtian, who was still a taciturn young man at that time.
"It's this one. Yuan Bao replied.
"You say he's good at women's diseases?" asked Li Shimin.
"Your Majesty, exactly. It is said that in the past, he was the holy hand of gynecology in Luoyang. Yuan Bao replied.
Li Shimin pondered that he should invite this miracle doctor into the palace to see the queen. The queen has been tired and uncomfortable lately. But for now, let's get down to business.
"Have you seen these three daughters of the Wu family?" Li Shimin continued to ask.
"I've seen them all. The company that sells tofu has a large birthmark on the baby girl's face, which is extremely ugly. The iron-striking family is also a disability, and he can't see it from birth. Yuan Bao replied. He answered very cleverly, and did not give the answer, but the answer was imminent.
It's not that he wants to deal with Samurai Tong, he has no grudge against Samurai Tong. He is talking about things, if the samurai Tong insists that someone wants to harm him, then it should be the person who threw the prophetic stone, or Li Chunfeng.
However, Li Chunfeng's kind of person will harm people?
Although Yuan Bao and Li Chunfeng do not have a deep friendship, people like Li Chunfeng are looking at the stars, or reading books, or deducing all day long. Dumbfounded, he guesses that he doesn't even know who it is, and he will harm him?
"How about the second daughter of Wu Shi Tong?" Li Shimin also frowned.
This warrior is an old man of the Li family, and he has always been loyal. If it is his second daughter, then this woman will surely die. However, it is really unreasonable to kill the daughter of a hero in a strange way for no reason.
"This woman is very beautiful. Less than a year old, he can already speak. The Wu family dressed him as a male baby and raised him as a male baby. Yuan Bao replied.
As a secret guard, a spy who spies on intelligence, his tone of narrating information has always been calm and unfazed. However, as soon as this sentence came out, Li Shimin's face immediately changed.
"Do you know why to raise it as a boy?" asked Li Shimin.
Yuan Bao shook his head and said, "Back to Your Majesty, time is pressing, and my subordinates have not found out." ”
"Then find out right away. Li Shimin intuitively felt that this matter was strange, and his heart was very disturbed.
The ingots left in response, and the rain outside the house was indulgent. Li Shimin looked back at the position he was sitting in and sighed.
This position, so many people want. But sitting here, you can't stop for a moment, you don't even have time to breathe. Because of the slightest carelessness, he will be crushed to pieces along with those who support him behind him, and there will be no recovery.
This position, in fact, is really tiring!
