Chapter 44: The Assassination of the Imperial Palace

Sitting in the open space of the official office, Li Daozheng cried profusely, a simple peasant man, has never been so vulnerable.

That's it for my whole life, I keep this land, grow old quietly, and disappear quietly in the dust.

But the son is different, he is only fifteen years old, if the son has no ability, he will admit it, he will grow old in the future, pass the land to him, generation after generation, there will be a person in the future who can make a living, and the old Li family is also regarded as a glorious lintel.

However, the son has real ability, although it is not clear where this ability comes from, but his ability is in front of him, Li Daozheng's idea is very simple, those who have ability, the court has to recognize.

Endless unwillingness and grievances came to his heart, and Li Daozheng sat in front of the official office in a daze, ignoring the curious eyes of the pedestrians around him, sobbing and choking in a daze.

I don't know how long it took, Li Daozheng finally stood up, patted the dust behind him, sniffed hard, looked up at the sky, sighed, carefully put away the poems written by his son, stuffed them into his arms, and left quietly as if nothing had happened.

The sun was setting, and on Suzaku Street, the afterglow of the setting sun stretched his figure long, and his shadow was as straight as a steel gun that would rather bend.

…………

It was already night when he got home, and Li Daozheng wiped his eyes with his sleeve before pushing away the firewood, and he looked old-fashioned and dull on weekdays.

Li Su sat in the hall in a daze, the oil lamp on the table flickering, and sometimes a dim lamp exploded.

Li Daozheng pushed the door in, and Li Su got up to greet him: "Dad, where have you been during the day?" ”

Li Daozheng shook his head, stared at his son, who was about as tall as him, and rarely stroked the top of his head with his big rough hand.

Li Su looked at him inexplicably.

For a long time, Li Daozheng slowly took out the poem written by his son from his arms, and after holding it in his arms for a long time, the paper looked a little wrinkled, Li Daozheng hurriedly smoothed out the wrinkles with his sleeves and handed it to Li Su.

"Baby, ......" Li Daozheng sighed, as if he wanted to sigh the sorrow of his life: "If you want to fight, you must fight for yourself." ”

Li Su held the poem he wrote, looked at his tired father, and said suspiciously: "Dad, what's wrong with you?" ”

Li Daozheng shook his head and laughed twice: "It's not early, go to sleep quickly, I'm going to the academy tomorrow morning to do my studies." ”

After speaking, Li Daozheng walked into the room.

Li Suding looked at his father's back, an inexplicable sadness welled up in his heart, and suddenly said: "Dad, I will definitely be able to live a good life in the future." ”

"Melon cowardice." Li Daozheng's laughter and scolding came from inside the house.

*********************************************************

Of course, you have to have money to live a good life, and money is the only criterion for measuring a good life.

I don't know how the people of Datang measure it, at least this is Li Su's standard.

Breaking his fingers and counting the days, it was almost time for the study shop in the city to settle the accounts, first build the big house, as for the furniture at home, Li Su had already drawn the drawings, and only waited for the big house to be built and then asked the carpenter in the village to make a set.

Li Su calculated, it doesn't cost much to build a house in the countryside, and the appearance of seven or eight times is very good, but how to explain the source of the house payment is a big problem, if Li Daozheng sees such a large amount of money falling from the sky, his most likely reaction will not be to cry with joy, but to lead his son to the government to surrender.

…………

On the side of the river, Princess Dongyang came early, sitting bored on the stones, looking at the clouds in the sky in a daze.

Li Su looked at her appearance from a distance and smiled.

He also likes to be in a daze, and always has an inexplicable good impression of people in a daze, and he always thinks that if a person can be in a daze for a while without any suspense, without smiling or crying, and showing the expression he originally wanted to show, then this person must not be a bad person.

Women who love to laugh are particularly lucky, in fact, so are they in a daze.

Li Su also found a flat stone beside Princess Dongyang, first wiped the dust off the stone with his hands, and then ran to the river to wash his hands, washing over and over again, washing very carefully, and after doing this qiē, he sat down with peace of mind.

Princess Dongyang looked at his actions speechlessly, wanting to laugh, but feeling unladylike, her eyes quietly bent into a crescent moon.

This one...... Sven scum actually loves cleanliness more than her, a princess with golden branches and jade leaves, and ...... Why can't I get used to wearing three hairpins? Must be symmetrical, to be neat to be desirable?

"Yes, I only wore two hairpins today, which looked much more pleasing to the eye, and I felt comfortable from the inside out when I saw you today." Li Su's praise is very straightforward, at least people in this era will not be so subtle.

Princess Dongyang's pretty face was quietly dyed red, but she stiffened her face and made herself look dissatisfied.

"I was going to wear three hairpins today, but I forgot about it before I went out, and I will wear three hairpins to show you tomorrow."

After a pause, Princess Dongyang glared at him: "You just said that you only looked at me pleasing to the eye today, did you look at me unpleasantly every day before?" ”

Li Su looked at her with disgust: "How can you say that?" Of course, I used to look at you well, especially that afternoon......"

Princess Dongyang asked happily, "Which afternoon?" ”

"The afternoon when you piled up ten pieces of money in front of you, really, you almost blinded my eyes that day, and your whole person seemed to emit ten thousand golden lights, as if the western sky was coming, and I almost bowed to you at that time......"

Princess Dongyang's smile froze, and her pretty face gradually darkened: "Li Su, you Sven scum, can you be more shameless?" Did you want to bow down to me or the ten money? ”

"Don't worry about the details......"

…………

…………

When the two were chatting lightly, a major event happened outside Chang'an City that shocked the whole city.

In the Jiucheng Palace, more than 200 miles northwest of Chang'an City, the Tang Emperor Li Shimin was actually assassinated.

There were not many assassins, more than forty people, and the leader of the assassins was named "Ashina Association Rate", the name was very strange, and it could be seen from the surname that this person was Turkic.

Speaking of this name, I have to talk about his elder brother, Ashina Shira, the elder brother of the Ashina Society, the former Eastern/Turkic Turkic Khan.

During the Wude period of the Tang Dynasty, the Eastern/Turkic Dynasty was the time of the scenery, and several major tribes often formed troops to invade the territory of the Tang Dynasty to kill people, set fires, rob food and rob women, and the largest tribes were the Jieli Khan and the Tuli Khan.

In the seventh year of Wude, Jieli Khan and Tuli Khan invaded the Tang Dynasty again, and yes, they came again, with full malice. This time, the Tang Emperor Li Yuan was not happy, because these two tribes had entered the hinterland of Guanzhong, Wulonghan, although Li Yuan had just been founded for seven years, both the national strength and the military strength were very weak, but this time he had to be angry.

This is not to treat the emperor as a cadre, what should I do? Hit him!

So Li Yuan issued an order, and Li Shimin, the king of Qin, led his troops to resist the Turkic troops at Wulonghan.

Li Shimin was a very good general, leading the army to Wulonghan, confronting the Turks from afar, and then he did something that people couldn't help but praise for his wit.

Without saying a word, he sent someone to find the Tuli Khan, and after dividing five by two, he bowed to the Tuli Khan and became brothers with different surnames.

Tuli Khan was so happy that he patted his ass very happily and turned back in front of the battle, betraying Jieli Khan and standing on the side of Datang.
