Chapter 45: Believe it or not, sister steamed you

When he heard this, Li Tingxue's face darkened.

Doesn't this product remember anything else besides eating?

Li Tingxue grabbed Li Chengqian, who was still chattering, pointed to his nose and said, "There are more than crabs in this place in Jiangnan!" ”

"Gee, of course I do."

"In addition to crabs, there are a lot of delicious dishes."

Hearing this, Li Tingxue gritted her teeth and roared: "Do you believe it or not, sister, I steamed you?" ”

Gollum ......

Li Chengqian swallowed his saliva, looked at his sister, and said with a dry smile: "My sister shouldn't be able to wreck such a cute brother......

After speaking, Li Chengqian also showed a cute expression.

Li Tingxue rolled her eyes after seeing it.

In addition to eating, this product is only left to sell cute.

Li Tingxue sighed helplessly, and then turned his head to look at the south bank of the Yangtze River.

Seeing her appearance, Li Chengqian pursed his lips: "Sister, I know what you want to say, isn't it that there are still families everywhere in the south." ”

The family's consideration has never been the interests of the country, and it has always been the interests of the family that change the country without changing the surname.

On the contrary, the family controls nearly half of a country's wealth, and it also controls a country's huge talent pool.

It can even affect the political trend to a certain extent.

How can such a person not become a serious problem for those in power?

Li Tingxue looked back at Li Chengqian: "You know? ”

"Of course I do."

Li Chengqian walked to the fence with his hands behind his back like a little adult: "The world says that a century-old dynasty and a thousand-year-old family, I can understand this sentence......

"Since the two Jin Dynasty, the Central Plains has been plagued by war, and many northern families have poured into the Jiangnan area in large numbers in order to avoid disasters, making Jiangnan completely a gathering place for families."

"As early as the two Jin Dynasty periods, the family formed a very huge network of relationships in the Jiangnan region through marriage and other means."

"Many local officials are even held hostage by the family."

Thinking of this, Li Chengqian felt ridiculous.

The country is held hostage by the people, and that is what the people want.

But the country is held hostage by the family, so what is it called?

Nobody knows.

Li Chengqian has long known that during this period, the family is the henchman of Li Shimin and even all those who are dedicated to the sake of the Tang Dynasty.

It's just that no one has dared to stand up and say it.

After all, balancing the family is the most difficult imperial technique in the world.

In the previous dynasty, in order to curb the development of the family, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty made major moves such as the imperial examination to curb the development of the family.

The imperial examination was to prevent talents from being monopolized by the family, and the Grand Canal was dug so that the southern materials could flow into the north continuously, so as to balance the monopoly of wealth between the northern and southern families.

Even the later much-criticized Battle of Goguryeo was to consume the strength of the northern family.

But the ending was obviously not good, the south fell into chaos for economic reasons, and the war in the north began to collapse again, and finally the country was ruined.

"Then you know, why am I talking to you about this?"

Li Tingxue looked at Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian looked up at Li Tingxue and pursed his lips.

He knew that the reason why Li Tingxue said this to himself was that he regarded himself as the future emperor.

But he really doesn't want to be an emperor.

He just wants to live in peace.

So he didn't really want to answer Li Tingxue's questions.

Li Chengqian raised his hand to pull Li Tingxue's hand.

"Sister, let's not talk about this, okay?"

Li Tingxue suddenly opened his hand, and then grabbed Li Chengqian's shoulder like crazy.

"This is the responsibility that only you can bear in the entire Datang."

In her heart, only Li Chengqian is worthy of being the future emperor, and no one else is worthy.

"Sister, you hurt me......"

Li Chengqian struggled.

But Li Tingxue stared at Li Chengqian as if she hadn't heard it.

He had never seen Li Tingxue like this.

Recently, he can clearly feel that his sister seems to have changed as a person.

"Sister, what's wrong with you......"

Seeing Li Chengqian's frightened face, Li Tingxue came back to his senses, and then let go of Li Chengqian.

Li Tingxue got up and looked at the river stupidly: "Okay, you go back, I'll be quiet by myself." ”

Looking at Li Tingxue, Li Chengqian didn't move, just quietly looked at his sister's back.

……

Two days later, the boat arrived at the ferry, and the group changed to a horse-drawn carriage and traveled south for a day before officially arriving in Suzhou.

During the Tang Dynasty, the north was heavy and the south was light, and today's Suzhou is not as prosperous as the future Gusu City.

Of course, there is no so-called flower street willow lane with light songs and dances.

There are only a few resources that have not yet been explored.

Li Chengqian came from later generations and knew that Suzhou was good.

The four seasons here are distinct, and the rain is abundant, so it can be said that you can get melons and beans.

There are also many delicacies, in addition to a dazzling array of snacks, there are also Yangtze River saury, Taihu Lake whitebait and other delicacies.

Of course, there are also hairy crabs from Yangcheng Lake, the main target of Li Chengqian's visit to Suzhou.

In order to be able to eat the freshest hairy crabs nearby, Li Chengqian directly led the team to live by Yangcheng Lake.

In the evening of the same day, Li Chengqian walked along the lake with a bamboo basket on his own, picking up the stinky and dead fish that no one wanted.

Qing porcelain Qinghe followed Li Chengqian's side to pick it up.

Feeling the strange eyes around him, Li Chengqian didn't feel anything, but they couldn't stand it.

No matter what the two of them say, they are also the prince's maids, but they came all the way to Suzhou to pick up dead fish.

And this work is not only dirty, but also very tiring, and it doesn't take long to be tired and sweaty.

"If Your Highness wants to eat fish, just let people go down and catch it."

Qinghe wiped his sweat and said, "Why do you have to pick up so many dead fish that you can't eat......"

"You don't know."

Li Chengqian smiled.

"To catch crabs, you have to use dead fish as bait."

"If you use something else, the crab won't take the bait at all."

"Is what Your Highness said true?"

"Of course it's true, I lied to you?"

Qing Ci interjected at this time: "Your Highness, are crabs really that delicious?" ”

"Of course."

"It's useless to tell you as much as you want now, you'll know when the time comes."

Li Chengqian joked: "I'm afraid that you will not forget to return to eat, so in order to eat crabs every day, I will stay in Suzhou directly." ”

Hearing this, the two daughters' faces turned red.

"Your Highness is talking nonsense and ignoring you......"

Qing Ci ran a few steps forward in shame, and went to the front to pick up the dead fish.

Qinghe stood stunned, obviously not understanding.

Li Chengqian stepped forward and said, "Sister Qinghe, why don't I choose a Suzhou husband for you to marry?" ”

This time, Qinghe came back to his senses.

However, Qinghe didn't think about it in any way, and said straightforwardly: "That's not good, I still have to take care of His Highness." ”

Hearing this, Li Chengqian shook his head helplessly.

Sure enough, naΓ―ve people, there are no worries in this life.

……

At this time, Lu Wanjie stood on the shore, looking at the three masters and servants playing in a daze.

Li Chengqian does not have the style of a prince, and he is no different from ordinary children.

Qing porcelain is calm, Qing Lotus is happy, and the three of them are of the same age, and it is easy to play together.

For some reason, seeing them frolicking, Lu Wanjie's heart actually gave birth to a trace of envy......

"I hope I'm among ...... too"
