"Your Majesty, Your Minister......"
"Auxiliary, as a secretary of the ministry, you privately led troops to chase after innocent people, don't meddle in this disaster relief matter!" Li Shimin interrupted the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, his face was full of frost.
The eldest grandson Wuji was shocked into a sweat, and hurriedly knelt down, and hurriedly explained: "The minister is dedicated to thinking about the Tang Dynasty, and where there is a conflict between words and deeds, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!" ”
Li Shimin did not answer, but announced his retirement with a gloomy face, and the eldest grandson Wuji did not wait for a separate conversation with him, and also withdrew with some frustration.
After that, the extremely uneasy eldest grandson Wuji found the eldest grandson queen and briefly told him what happened today. Empress Eldest Sun sighed and complained: "Brother, you always taught me how to forbear, why did you come to you and become so impetuous?" ”
"I don't want to do this either, but Yuan Ziyan is a very difficult person, no matter whether he has an official position or not, he can always be favored by His Majesty. Moreover, this person is quite scheming, and he refuses to marry the royal family, so he hooks His Majesty's mind like this, which is really hateful. The eldest grandson said hatefully.
"Brother, the tree is very popular. Our eldest grandson has been favored by the Holy Grace and is glorious. Acting cautiously will also cause right and wrong, let alone confronting Your Majesty in public? Although Yuan Ziyan knows some superpowers, she is a big and unruly person, and she is worried that she can't get her handle after a long time? Empress Eldest Sun hinted.
But right now, she is frequently secretly in contact with important ministers in the court. Li Tao is her ex-husband, and she still has a deep affection for her, and Wei Chigong, Cheng Yanjin, Qin Qiong and others are even more commensurate with her brother and sister, like a family. Most of the ministers of the DPRK and China are people who see the wind and steer the rudder. Flattering him, if this continues, this Yuan Ziyan will gradually manipulate the lifeblood of the Tang Dynasty! ”
"My brother is too worried. Your Majesty is wise, and he is a wise monarch through the ages, how can he be manipulated by him? ”
"Your Majesty was injured in his early years, and he was severely poisoned, and his longevity is unknown. And several princes are close to Yuan Ziyan, and they will wait until the crown prince ascends the throne......"
"Enough!"
Empress Eldest Sun suddenly turned cold. The eldest grandson Wuji argued: "Sister, I'm telling the truth! ”
"You're a big rebel! You are only allowed to say these things to me once, if you do it again. This palace will definitely inform Your Majesty and let you punish you for a serious crime! ”
You? The eldest grandson Wuji sighed heavily, had to give his sister a gift, and then retreated sullenly. When you go out. Empress Eldest Sun explained again. In the future, if you have something to discuss with the courtiers, you should not come to the main hall by yourself, so as not to fall into the mouth of a court interfering in politics.
The eldest grandson Wuji could only nod and agree, although he still loved and respected his sister before, but after getting married, the status of the man and the son is the most important. I'm afraid that if I talk to my sister in the future, I have to be careful. You can't keep your mouth shut.
Looking at her brother's somewhat heavy steps, Empress Eldest Sun didn't feel good in her heart. She touched her slightly bulging belly, and she was already more than seven months pregnant. At this point, Empress Changsun already has four children, which is the envy of other Houcourt women.
But Empress Changsun was still uneasy, because this child had been separated from the third Changle princess for seven years. This also means that in recent years, she has spent more days alone in the empty house than in the love of husband and wife.
In the past two years, several more children have been added to the palace, and there are five more princes alone, if their own children are born, if it is a boy, it should be the Nine Emperors. I think what a sensation it was when I was born Chengqian, the Emperor Taishang personally gave the name, and I couldn't let go of this grandson, but when I arrived in Tai'er, it was much worse, so Concubine Yang Shufei had to give birth to Ke'er at the first time.
When he arrived at Xiao Lao Jiu, His Majesty who had many children and many blessings was no longer so rare for children, since he was pregnant, Li Shimin did not come to visit, but symbolically asked a few words when they met, and then rewarded some treasures at will.
This is the fate of women in the palace, no children are frightened, this is the fate of most people, and it is not practical to have children, such as Yang Shufei, who feels that a son is too little, so she hates her body for not being angry, but she was pregnant with another one, but unfortunately she didn't keep the miscarriage.
Of course, the most envious of the women in the back court is the first eldest grandson queen, who has a strong mother's family, several children, and the queen of the main palace, but she still lives in endless worries. I am afraid that my son will not be able to keep the position of the crown prince, lest I be careless, I will fall into the trap of others and lose the phoenix seal of the queen, and I am afraid that my words and deeds will go wrong, lose His Majesty's favor, and become a resentful woman in the court.
In other words, the person who all the women in the palace envy the most is actually Yuan Ziyan. Being able to see His Majesty every day, and being able to talk and laugh, and even sit on an equal footing, is really beyond the reach of others in their eternal lives.
No, early this morning, while people were not paying attention, Li Shimin and Yuan Ziyan just brought a few guards with strong martial arts, and just left the Taiji Palace.
Of course, the news is tightly sealed, and those who know it are all trustworthy people, including the eldest grandson queen, of course. Empress Eldest Sun is very depressed, this Yuan Ziyan is inseparable from His Majesty, and has almost all his attention, and she is the queen in vain.
Thinking of this, Empress Changsun had a sharp pain in her abdomen, and there was a phenomenon of seeing redness, and there was a lot of blood, flowing down the trouser legs, and Empress Changsun's face was pale, and she couldn't stand steadily, so she could only lie down. Shocked, the palace maids hurriedly called the imperial doctor, because it was not yet a month, and the birth at this time would definitely not be saved.
After a careful examination, the imperial doctors hurriedly boiled acupuncture and moxibustion, and finally the red phenomenon was improved. However, the imperial doctor reminded that the reason why the queen was unstable was because of the depressed and uncomfortable mood, and the blood flow was sluggish, resulting in insufficient supply of the fetus, and she had to stay in bed for half a month to recuperate, and she was not allowed to move at will. If the situation improves, you can go to the ground to move, but it is difficult for the fetus to be delivered to term, so you must be mentally prepared.
Empress Changsun was very helpless, ordered someone to reward the imperial doctor, and lay on the bed in a daze. I can't do anything, but I am even more depressed, and I will inevitably think crankily, so the condition is repeated, and it is not good for a long time.
At this time, Li Shimin and Yuan Ziyan were of course not playing to enjoy the scenery, but a private visit to Weifu to experience the suffering of the people's livelihood and check how serious the disaster was.
Chang'an is in good condition, but there are a lot fewer street vendors, and they can't eat enough, where can they have money to spend again. And out of Chang'an City, the scene in front of them still surprised the two.
Endless waves of victims sat on the side of the road, and more than a dozen pots were erected outside Chang'an City, with no firewood underneath and no rice in the pots, which was just a formality. The gate of Chang'an was heavily guarded in order to prevent the victims from entering the city and disturb the order.
These victims are all yellow and thin, the children are lying weakly in their mother's arms, and those unweaned dolls are hungry and grab their mother's shriveled ** and suck it twice, but they can't suck anything out, so they cry, the voice is not loud, and they have no strength.
"How did it get to this point!" Li Shimin's brows furrowed tightly, looking at a child with hay on the side of the road was really pitiful, and ordered someone to give him the dry food he was carrying.
"Shimin, don't!" Yuan Ziyan pressed the bag of dry food and whispered: "There are too many victims here, and it is not enough to distribute dry food like this, and maybe it will cause robbery, and the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
Li Shimin nodded, and at this moment, a treacherous-looking man saw that several of them were brightly dressed, they should be rich people, and immediately ran over with a child in his arms: "Master, madam, it's okay, buy my child!" Just give some money! ”
Yuan Ziyan scolded unhappily: "What are these words, why are you still selling children?" ”
"Madam, you are a full man who doesn't know that a hungry man is hungry, and it is good to eat without a child. Buy it or not, give two pieces of dry food! The man looked at the bulging bag, his sense of smell was particularly sensitive to hunger, and he could be sure that it was full of food.
"You it, give me back your daughter!" An unkempt woman ran over and snatched the child.
"I'm going to starve to death, why are you raising such a money-losing product!" The man reprimanded.
"As long as I have a breath, I won't let you sell your child!"
"Get out of the way, how many children have been sold here, why is your daughter so delicate?" The man squinted at Li Shimin and the others, and said, "Seeing that these people are all rich masters, whether they are good or good, what else do you have to worry about?" ”
"I've been married to you for so many years, and I'm starving and enduring poverty, but you can't sell my daughter!" The woman cried out in despair.
Yuan Ziyan frowned and asked, "Are there a lot of children who sell children here?" ”
The man's eyes rolled and he smiled: "I know a lot, as long as I can give some reward." ”
"You're calculating." Yuan Ziyan casually threw him a few coins, the man scratched his ears and cheeks with joy, and threw the child on the ground, the girl snorted, and the woman hurriedly picked it up and protected it to death, for fear of being snatched away again.
"In the drought, nothing is produced in the fields, and the family is starving, so you have to sell your children!" The man said casually.
"Where did they go?" Yuan Ziyan asked.
The man was silent again, scratching his face for a while, rubbing his nose for a while, it goes without saying that he still wants money, Yuan Ziyan snorted coldly and gave a look to a guard. I saw a flash of light, and a sharp knife was already on the man's neck.
"Hey, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, you dare to ...... Oops, don't, I say, I say! ”
The guard's hand was slightly forced, and a scar had already appeared on the man's neck, and he was so frightened that his legs trembled like chaff.
"The smaller ones are not easy to sell, they can't afford to feed, and the best ones for six or seven years old are to be sold, and they are all raised as slaves by the eunuchs. If the girl is good-looking, she will be sent to the Qinglou. Several nobles, I also sold my two sons, and went to the stone field to dig stones and build mausoleums. I can't help it, just raise your hand and let me go! I'm not a thing! The more the man spoke, the more sad he became, and he slapped himself in the face, and even his wife couldn't stand it anymore, so he took his hand, and the two hugged their heads and cried.
