Chapter Forty-Six: The Apprentice Arrives

"Mother, is King Han's house fun? Is it really beautiful? ”

"Do I have to go to his house every day? Will he have more jigsaw puzzles at home? ”

"Is the food at King Han's house really delicious? Even better than ours? ”

……

"Okay, can you close your little mouth and rest for a while?"

Being asked a series of questions by his daughter was really a little panicked, Li finally glared at Yuwen Xiu Duoluo, and said angrily: "I've told you several times, Han Wangfu is big and beautiful, similar to our family...... And I repeat, the food in Han Wangfu is delicious, and it is the best in Chang'an; And the king has prepared a lot of fun games for you, not only puzzles, but also many others! ”

"Wow, really?"

“…… It's true. ”

With a long sigh from the sky, Li rolled his eyes speechlessly.

The questions of this little ancestor are too painful, but she, the mother, can't refuse...... In fact, it's not just the Li family who is a mother, Yu Wenshi and the father are even more unprincipled doting in front of this little girl, almost giving whatever she wants, if it's not for the health is really bad, without the strength and energy, otherwise I'm afraid there is no problem lying on the ground as a horse.

A six-year-old girl, with a lot of energy, makes people have a headache.

So sending his daughter to King Han's mansion and letting her study with her cousin is also a pretty good choice in Li's opinion - although King Han is not very old and doesn't even have a child, even the prime minister in the family has said many times that Li Yuanjia has a stable temperament, which is the most reassuring, what else does the Li family have to worry about?

Not to mention......

Thinking of the new things in King Han's Mansion that can always make people's eyes shine, Li himself is a little itchy, and his eyes are faintly envious when he looks at his daughter.

Although the relationship with Li Yuanjia is very close, the Li family can't always run to the palace!

My own daughter is different, today I went to worship my cousin as a teacher...... Even if both parties were very silent and silent, and even Yu Wenshi didn't come forward, just asked the Li family to take their daughter to visit, but the two families themselves knew very well what this matter itself meant!

Apprenticeship or something, in fact, is just something on the surface.

Yu Wenshi's age is not young, and his health has not been good in the past few years, although he is very patient under the advice of his nephew, but the old man's physical condition is still deteriorating...... After a hundred years, both the Li family and Yuwen Shutara need a strong enough backer!

There is no doubt that Li Yuanjia is the best choice.

Not only because Li Yuanjia and Yu Wenshi have a close relationship, and blood is thicker than water, nor because of the high status of King Han, there are not many people in the Tang Dynasty who can afford to provoke him, but more importantly, Li Yuanjia, as a prince, is in Chang'an!

Look at the other princes, except for Li Shimin's own sons, who is still staying in Chang'an?

Without exception, all went to other places!

The princes of the Tang Dynasty are not allowed to return to Beijing unless they are called, so that is to say, although those princes have noble status, they can only stay in the place like exile and live a life of resignation - in this era, in addition to Chang'an and Luoyang, how many decent cities are there in the world?

There are more than 200 states in the Tang Dynasty, more than 2 million households, and now the most populous Shangzhou is only 350,000 households, more than 100,000 or 200,000 people, even if the state capital can have a large population?

Measured by the standards of the future, it is a town to die!

At least in Li Yuanjia's eyes, Luzhou, thousands of miles away...... Well, it's the place where he stayed when he was the king before, that is, Luzhou, where his brother and sister are now the kings, is undoubtedly a town.

Even if you're a prince, what's the fun of staying in that kind of place?

So that's why Li Shimin was so bold that he gave the states of the world to his younger brothers, sons and ministers, and was willing to let their descendants inherit the position of assassination, but the eldest grandson Wuji and others were not only unwilling, but even complained, thinking that Tang Taizong was a rabbit and a dead dog, and was ready to exile them......

In fact, seriously speaking, the population of Datang is not so small.

Although the official statistics are 3 million households, about 15 million people, don't forget, unlike the former Sui who looted hidden households on a large scale and forced brothers to divide their families to increase taxes, Li Shimin's pattern is much larger, and he never thought of squeezing that household tax!

For example, there are so many hidden households in the world, and Li Shimin admitted this confused account.

And he also stipulated that if the parents were there, the brothers could not be separated, and whoever did split the family must be punished...... Of course, this is not conducive to tax collection, so Li Shimin is releasing water to raise fish!

Governing the country with virtue and hiding wealth from the people are not shouted out, but done, and they are meant to give up their interests in a real way.

It is precisely because of this series of policies that there is the rule of Zhenguan......

Well, that's a long way off.

The carriage gurgled on the road, and soon arrived at the door of King Han's mansion. Knowing that the Li family and their mother were coming, naturally someone was already waiting in front of the door, and after seeing the carriage from afar, they immediately rushed in to report it.

So when the Li family took his daughter Yuwen Shudora's little hand and stepped out of the carriage, Fang Fengzhu immediately greeted him with a smile: "Little sister Fengzhu, welcome sister...... Ouch, I haven't seen you in a few days, and we Shutara are so much more beautiful! ”

After a polite greeting, Li patted his daughter's little head and said in a low voice: "Don't you come forward to greet you?" This is my aunt and uncle who I told you......"

"Don't, don't!"

As soon as his head tightened, Fang Fengzhu quickly stopped Li's words, and said with a wry smile: "Let's let her call me sister, this is what the king specially ordered...... Ahem, just call sister! ”

As soon as she thought of the complicated relationship between the two families, Fang Fengzhu had a headache.

Now this is Datang, unlike women who are proud of their youth after more than a thousand years, and they are most afraid that others will call them old. But because Li Yuanjia specially explained, Fang Fengzhu insisted on being a junior.

Li didn't insist, and after nodding, Yuwen Xiu Duo Luo smiled sweetly and shouted: "Yuwen Xiu Duoluo, I've seen Sister Fengzhu!" ”

"Alas, good! Good! ”

Looking at the little girl's appearance, Fang Fengzhu suddenly smiled.

This six-year-old girl has completely inherited all the advantages of her father and mother, her skin is fair and smooth, her goose egg face looks extremely cute, coupled with her jet-black hair, and a pair of big eyes that are rolling around, anyone who looks at it can't help but be happy.

Fang Fengzhu is naturally no exception, and when she was called "Sister Fengzhu", her heart instantly became soft.

The relationship between the two families is close, so Fang Fengzhu doesn't need to be polite, so he just grabbed Yuwen Xiu Duoluo's little hand: "Let's go, go with my sister to see your cousin!" Hehe, he's been busy these days to welcome you......"
