"Big brother, am I like the kind of person who jokes around?" Yuan Ziyan said.

Chu Suiliang cried with joy, his face was also a little shiny, and he happily rushed at Yuan Ziyan. After his death, he can enjoy the Taimiao, and the portrait can be hung in the Lingyan Pavilion, which is the thing that many ministers are most looking forward to.

"Big brother, the political struggle is too tiring, and it is not necessarily a good thing to go home to recuperate. Although it's a little embarrassing to look at, in fact, we all envy you very much in our hearts, but most people don't want to say it. Yuan Ziyan comforted again.

Chu Suiliang nodded and said with a wry smile: "Don't hide it from the national teacher, every day when you wake up or in your dreams, it's all in the court, only you can sleep a lot yesterday." ”

After saying that, the two laughed, Chu Suiliang hesitated for a moment and asked: "Master Guoshi, you tried your best to support Wu Zhaoyi to enter the Middle Palace, but do you have other plans?" I'm already like this, and if it's hard to go back to the court, it's okay for the adults to say it directly. ”

"Hey, you, don't forget to think about your majesty at this time. Big brother, in fact, you really think too much, this country belongs to the Li family after all, you, including me, we are all people with foreign surnames, we have worked hard for a lifetime, and it is good to have a good ending. Wu Zhaoyi is a talented person of the first emperor, or the current holy Empress Zhaoyi, but in the end, aren't they all the daughters-in-law of the Li family? ”

"What the national teacher said is reasonable, Chu Suiliang risked his life to ask, will Wu Zhaoyi become the heroine in the rumors?" Chu Suiliang looked directly into Yuan Ziyan's eyes.

Yuan Ziyan smiled slightly, and asked instead of answering: "What do you think Wu Zhaoyi can do?" ”

"Excellent!"

"As long as it's good for the country, it doesn't matter what kind of man or woman he is. Let's just have a good time. Destiny is hard to violate, I don't have that much ability to go against the sky, so I just let it be. Leave it to fate. However, if something really happens that Big Brother is worried about, what is wrong, it will be the descendants of the Li family who will inherit the throne in the future! Yuan Ziyan said vaguely.

Chu Suiliang seems to understand whether he understands or not, and Yuan Ziyan avoids the important and light, which is even more incredible, having said that. But I don't know what kind of turmoil the court should have been at that time, and the blood was shedding.

Hey, that's it. is not in his position and does not seek his own politics, Chu Suiliang is ready to leave, and Yuan Ziyan will send a snack for him to eat on the road.

Chu Suiliang, who was beginning to learn to relax, felt hungry. I took the snacks but felt that the weight was wrong. Hurriedly opened it, where is the dim sum, in fact, it is a box of jewelry, and a silver ticket, a thousand taels of gold!

This is money that Chu Suiliang has never earned in his life, and he feels hot in his hand, Yuan Ziyan really has a deep background, and his shot is so generous. It's scary.

There is also a note in it, reads. Clean silver taels, for the big brother to provide for the elderly, don't shirk.

Chu Suiliang lifted the curtain and looked back, he had long since seen Chang'an and Yuan Ziyan, and he was very moved in his heart, but he didn't expect it to be coming, and it turned out to be the most important friendship of the big enemy.

Chu Suiliang naturally did not have the habit of extravagance and waste, this money was used by him to donate to school, build bridges and pave roads, for a time the people came to the door to thank them, and the simple local specialties were offered, but they were also very happy.

This was a dramatic change, Chu Suiliang, who was dismissed from his official position, easily left Chang'an and returned to his hometown, where he was warmly welcomed by the villagers.

But Li Zhi did not get angry because of this, he was so angry that his liver hurt every day, and he had a ventilated attack, which was even more unbearable, and people became more and more impatient.

Wu Mei's belly is getting bigger and bigger, and she really can't be appeased, so she can only come to Yuan Ziyan to ask for ideas: "Stepmother, Your Majesty's long sighs every day are all because of me, and I ask my stepmother to go and comfort me." ”

"It's a heart disease. Forget it, I'll take a look. ”

When Yuan Ziyan arrived, sure enough, Li Zhi was losing his temper, spilling all the decoction, and the hot potion splashed on the eunuch's body, grinning in pain but not daring to make a sound, but first wiped the two drops on Li Zhi's clothes.

"Get out, get out!" Li Zhi let out a low roar, like a crazy beast, Wu Mei was frightened, but she didn't dare to enter, Yuan Ziyan motioned for her to wait outside, and walked in by herself.

Seeing that it was Yuan Ziyan coming in, Li Zhi's anger also went down a lot, and the urn shouted a sentence and the righteous mother was decadently half lying on the dragon couch.

"Zhi'er, why don't you take medicine?"

"Mother-in-law, do you also think that Zhi'er is very incompetent? Neither can handle family affairs well, nor can he manage state affairs, only the behavior of beating and scolding the woman disappointed his stepmother, right? Li Zhiwei closed his eyes and said weakly.

"No, if you don't bear it, I'm worried. Emperors are also human beings, so they have to vent when they should vent. If your father can be like you, if you don't hold on to everything, you may be able to live for more than ten years. Yuan Ziyan said and sighed slightly.

At the mention of Li Shimin, Li Zhi frowned slightly, but Yuan Ziyan was in full view, and came to sit down beside him with a smile.

"What else can I say to my stepmother? There is any bitter water in your heart, come, pour it out. ”

"Don't dare!"

"If you don't dare to say it, I'll tell you for you. Are you angry with your father in your heart, hate him for not giving you Wu Mei in the first place? ”

After Yuan Ziyan finished speaking, Li Zhi's face was embarrassed, and he was hesitant, neither admitting nor denying it. Yuan Ziyan said again: "Since it is difficult to open the knot, why don't you visit Zhaoling in person, one is to show filial piety to the people of the world, and the other is to open up doubts there." ”

Li Zhi was interested, and sat up suddenly, Zhaoling is located on the top of the peak of Jiuzhi (zōng) mountain, the scenery is beautiful, it is a good place, even if it is to go out and relax.

"Mother-in-law, is this appropriate?" Although he was excited, Li Zhi was still a little timid, he was well-behaved since he was a child, but he was also a little timid in front of his parents.

"Hehe, Zhi'er, it has become history before, you must show confidence and courage, this world is yours!"

Right! Li Zhi's eyes lit up, and he didn't know when his gout had been cured, as long as he was filial to the emperor and worthy of his heart, why should he care about other people's opinions?

After learning the news, many old ministers were very excited and wanted to go with them, but after all, it was not a tour, but a serious worship of eight hundred, and the mausoleum was not suitable for children to go to these places with heavy yin qi.

Li Hong wanted to go out to play, and if he didn't let him go, he would inevitably be disappointed, so the palace people persuaded him, your mother is pregnant, she will definitely not go out, and she can stay with you.

However, Li Zhi and Yuan Ziyan and others were not in the palace, and Wu Mei, who stayed in Chang'an, became even busier.

At first, Wu Mei was still prevaricating, and it was inconvenient for the women of the back court to point fingers at military affairs, so she could wait for His Majesty to come back, or send her quickly.

But there are some things that can't wait, such as the rebellion of small forces, and the opening of a position for disaster relief, etc., and half a day's negligence is a world of difference.

In desperation, Wu Mei had to come up with an idea temporarily, everyone was convinced, and praised each other, and soon the news spread, and more people came to Wu Mei for advice. Wu Mei worked tirelessly to answer them one by one.

Although it was only two or three days, Wu Mei's shrewdness and talent were recognized by more and more people, and the unique delicacy of women made things handle things perfectly, and there was no after-autumn account.

Although the eldest grandson Wuji later questioned it, Wu Mei was tactful, and her attitude and words were in place in advance, and she couldn't find the slightest flaw, so she could only stop it.

Turning around, he went on to say that Li Zhi personally visited Zhaoling, because the distance is not far, it can be reached in half a day, and the princes of the Tang Dynasty are good at riding and shooting, so they are all riding horses this time.

Yuan Ziyan and Li Zhi went hand in hand, and the most talked about topic on the road was naturally Li Shimin. Yuan Ziyan told a lot of embarrassing things about Li Shimin, and Li Zhi leaned back and said: "Haha, I didn't expect my father to be so afraid of Wei Zheng that he even suffocated a bird." ”

"Hehe, it's not so much fear as respect. Your father's heart is bigger than this heaven and earth. Yuan Ziyan looked up and sighed.

"Mother-in-law, as we all know, my father has a lot of affection for you, and I heard that when I was a child, it was because you were jealous that I didn't let my father touch Wu Mei. I didn't expect my father to really do it, Wu Mei was still perfect in front of him for more than ten years. Li Zhi rarely joked with Yuan Ziyan.

Yuan Ziyan smiled slightly, but did not explain this. Yuan Ziyan did force Li Shimin to promise not to touch Wu Mei at the beginning, but in fact, he was not jealous. One is that he knows that Wu Mei will marry Li Zhi in the future, so it is a good thing to be able to protect Bingqing Yujie, at least there is no mustard in Li Zhi's place. On the other hand, Li Shimin fought all year round and was in extremely poor physical condition, and after the death of Empress Changsun, there was no one in the palace to support him.

"Zhi'er, do you believe in fate?"

"Yes, I believe it."

"You and Bollywood are actually destined fate. Maybe you don't know that I stayed when Wu Mei entered the palace, and later served her daily life in the Da'an Palace where Gaozu lived, and worked part-time as your master and carriage. After Yuan Ziyan finished speaking, he smiled with Li Zhi, and said: "After Wu Mei grew up, your father actually wanted her to marry the former prince Chengqian. ”

Oh! Li Zhi was quite surprised, he never expected that his father would have such a plan: "To be honest, I am far worse than my eldest brother, but unfortunately, he took the wrong path." ”

"Yes, Cheng Qian, both civil and military, and Emperor Gaozu personally trained him, although he fell his leg when he was young, it did not hinder Daya." Referring to the first child he delivered, Yuan Ziyan sighed slightly.

"Mother-in-law, the eldest brother and Wu Mei are also a good match, if they become my sister-in-law, I will gladly accept it, why didn't it work out later? Later, why did he become a talented person of his father? Li Zhi was puzzled.

Yuan Ziyan gave the order, and the people behind him were farther away, so the eldest grandson Wuji and the others who followed behind just saw the two in front of them talking and laughing, but they didn't know what they were talking about, and it was useless to be in a hurry.

Yuan Ziyan felt that it was necessary to tell Li Zhi everything that had happened before, so that the two of them were not wary of each other. (To be continued......)
