Chapter 147 [Li Shimin is a poor ghost emperor!] 】
In the Tang Palace, Li Shimin was reviewing the recital, and suddenly heard crying outside, and the two children were lying at the door with their little heads exposed.
Li Shimin raised his eyes and couldn't help but be happy, but when he saw the tattered clothes worn by the two little things, lying at the door and crying, although he was crying, he didn't pretend to be like it, he was clearly just howling, and there were no tears on his face.
The two little things didn't know who instigated them, and while crying, they peeked into the door with their eyes, and when they saw Li Shimin paying attention to them, they immediately cried even more happily, and whimpered: "We're going to starve to death, we will definitely starve to death in the future, my father sold our imperial farm, and turned us into poor eggs......"
In this case, a child will definitely not be able to think of it.
It is estimated that Li Yun caused trouble by the trading center in Fanyang.
Li Shimin's face suddenly sank, and he scolded outside the door: "Concubine Yang, Concubine Shu, are you outside the door, let me come in." ”
Sure enough, there was a flash of people at the door, and the two concubines showed up cautiously, in addition to the eldest grandson queen in the Tang Dynasty harem, there were also four concubines of 'Zhengyipin', collectively known as the four main concubines, Concubine Yang and Concubine Shu were two of them.
The two concubines saw Li Shimin's gloomy face, and subconsciously held their little prince in their arms, relying on the prince to open the way, they dared to enter the door, and after entering the door, they began to sobble and cry without waiting for Li Shimin to ask.
Li Shimin was extremely irritable, frowned and scolded: "I have said many times, those two imperial villages are borrowed, Guanyin maid also made a statement, wait until the internal affairs government has the money to return it immediately, cry whatever you cry, and let me get out if you cry." ”
The two concubines still wiped their eyes and tears, regardless of the emperor's scolding of them, women, one cry, two troubles and three hangings, I don't care if you are bruised, I have to cry if I am wronged.
Li Shimin's face was full of helplessness, and his heart became even more irritable, and he suddenly slapped the table heavily and scolded: "I will say it again, the two imperial villages are borrowed, and when the inner treasury has money, it will definitely be returned to you." ”
"Then why borrow our children's ......"
The two concubines finally spoke, and first the concubine cried and cried: "The queen mother also has heirs, one is the crown prince and the other is the king of Wei, why doesn't Your Majesty borrow the prince and the king of Wei's imperial village!" ”
Li Shimin snorted, he can't say that I can't afford to mess with the queen.
Seeing that the emperor didn't speak, Concubine Shu took the opportunity to say again: "You said that you would return the money if you have it, but when did the inner treasury have any money left?" The concubines in the first half of the year were still owed, and the concubines had to weave and sell cloth to survive. I asked the queen several times, and each time she said that it would be distributed next month, but I waited for half a year, and now it is almost October. ”
Concubine Yang didn't dare to accuse the eldest grandson, but she also said weakly: "The concubine is also weaving, barely helping the child save some property." ”
"Bastard thing!"
Li Shimin slapped the table heavily, and said with anger on his face: "The four dignified concubines, claiming to weave cloth to live, are you treating me as a fool?" Which of you has lived by weaving? ”
When the emperor said this, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at the concubine, and said hatefully: "You are from a wealthy family, and your mother family has to send silver money into the palace every month. Lady, do you still have the face to say that you weave cloth to survive? You spend at least 50 yuan a month, you wear the best satin, eat and drink exquisitely, you look at the queen, which of her dresses is more beautiful than you? ”
Concubine Shu snorted, bowed her head and didn't dare to speak.
Li Shimin looked at Concubine Yang again, and also hated iron and steel: "Although the Great Sui is destroyed, you are the princess of the previous dynasty after all, you have no maternal support, but you still have an uncle's subsidy, the Xiao family controls the Tang tea industry, it can be said that the fat is flowing oil, don't think that I don't know, the Xiao family gave you five tea mountains in Jiangnan." ”
Concubine Yang also lowered her head, not even daring to wipe her eyes and tears.
Li Shimin took a deep breath and suddenly said, "Let's go back, pack up, and get ready to go." ”
These words shocked the two concubines, thinking that the emperor was going to send them to the cold palace.
Fortunately, Li Shimin immediately spoke, and his tone gradually slowed down: "This time I borrowed your child's Huangzhuang, I also felt a little unhappy in my heart, I thought that you stay in the deep palace all day, it is difficult to have the opportunity to go out to see the world, this time I want to go to Fanyang in person, by the way, I will take you with me." ”
"Your Majesty is going to Fanyang?"
"Take us with you?"
The two concubines blurted out, first stunned, then overjoyed, the two of them hugged the little prince almost at the same time, and said with a look of longing: "Can you let the child go with you?" ”
Li Shimin snorted, shook his hand and scolded: "Hurry up and go back and clean up, we have to leave today." ”
This is tantamount to acquiescing to agree.
Where did the two concubines still care about crying, and they didn't even care about giving Li Shimin a farewell ceremony, the two ran out of the door in a blink of an eye, and hurriedly left with their respective little princes in their arms.
There was also a faint sound of their discussion outside the door, and it seemed that they were chattering constantly: "I heard that King Zhao of Xifu invited businessmen from all over the world, and the whole Fanyang will definitely be very lively at that time, we must bring some more money, and buy all the good-looking and rare ones." ”
Just now he was crying poor, and in a blink of an eye, he wanted to go shopping, Li Shimin took a deep breath and sighed helplessly.
No way, this is my own daughter-in-law.
At this time, I suddenly heard a snort behind the screen, and no one could have imagined that there were still people hiding in the imperial study, but when I saw the eldest grandson queen slowly walking out from behind the screen, she stood on tiptoe and looked outside, patted her chest and said: "It's really a shame for the concubines, the dignified queen wants to hide from the two concubines, if this matter spreads, the concubines won't have to be human beings in the future." ”
Li Shimin smiled and said mockingly: "Can you do it if you don't hide?" You forcibly borrowed someone else's child's imperial village. are all mothers, and you can really kill you. ”
Empress Changsun glanced at him fiercely, and said angrily: "There is no money in the inner treasury, you want to buy a horse, and it is difficult for the concubines and women to cook without rice, who do I not borrow from their imperial village?" ”
Li Shimin couldn't help but said: "Then why don't you borrow Chengqian's Imperial Village, or go to all Qingque's, both of them are sons-in-law, one is the crown prince and the other is the king of Wei, each has five or six imperial villages under their names, you can borrow them and sell them first." ”
"How's that going to work!"
Empress Changsun glanced at the emperor again, and said righteously: "That's the concubine's own son." ”
Li Shimin rolled his eyes helplessly, and said mockingly: "Isn't the co-author of Concubine Shu and Concubine Yang his own son?" ”
Empress Eldest Sun was a little embarrassed at this time, and changed the topic in a stingy voice: "Anyway, I have already borrowed it, and the Tian Qi has been sent to Fan Yang quickly, Your Majesty, it is useless for you to scold the concubines, you can't send someone to chase the Tian Qi back." ”
Li Shimin sighed, and suddenly said with a little bitterness: "I am a poor emperor." ”
When Empress Changsun heard her husband's bad tone, she hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her husband's arm, and said softly: "Your Majesty, let's hold on for a while, the concubines have stayed up late every day for the past two months, and have taken the palace maids to do embroidery day and night, and have made a total of two large carts of brocade, which have been transported to Fanyang City in advance, and will inevitably cause robbery at that time, and it is guaranteed to be sold for a large sum of money." ”
Li Shimin was very excited, and couldn't help but say: "Gong Jin has always been not allowed to be sold, only a small reward is allowed to meritorious, I am confident that I can sell at least 50,000 yuan." ”
Empress Eldest Sun was also very excited, and nodded again and again: "In that case, the concubines can send all the arrears to the concubines." ”
Li Shimin subconsciously said: "I want to buy more war horses." ”
The two glanced at each other, and suddenly smiled bitterly together.
Still poor!
At this time, I suddenly heard footsteps outside the door, but when I saw Wei Chi Jingde appear at the door, the black-faced Guogong did not enter the door to greet him, but asked from afar: "Your Majesty, the hour is almost up!" ”
Li Shimin nodded and asked in a deep voice, "Are you all ready?" ”
Wei Chi Jingde spoke directly, and said angrily: "The minister sent two thousand Xuanjia iron horsemen out of the city to open the way, and let one thousand hundred horsemen dress up as civilians, in addition to three thousand royal forest troops, responsible for the guards on the bright side, because of the long distance, the dragon and phoenix are inconvenient to go out of the palace, so the minister has prepared a carriage suitable for the road, and dare to ask His Majesty and Niangniang when they are going to leave." ”
Li Shimin smiled and said, "Wei Chi is doing things, I am very relieved......"
Turning his head to look at Empress Changsun, he stretched out his hand to make an invitation and said, "Guanyin, how about a trip with Fan Yang?" ”
Empress Changsun subconsciously tidied up her clothes, and said excitedly: "The concubine has not been out of Chang'an for ten years. ”
Li Shimin laughed and said, "Then you have to thank your nephew." ”
The husband and wife went out hand in hand.
……
The whole Chang'an suddenly became lively!
But I saw all kinds of luxurious carriages popping up on the streets, and after leaving the city, a huge convoy was formed on the official road, including royal, family, prince, and noble.
The procession of hundreds of carriages was already huge, and the carriages were accompanied by countless guards, and then there were many more vehicles, all of which were ox carts loaded with goods, and there was no end in sight.
I want to go to Fanyang City to make a fortune!
What is called an empty glove white wolf, maybe this is called an empty glove white wolf.
Li Yun just made a trading center, and gathered the wealth of the entire world, in addition to the Tang Dynasty monarchs and ministers came in a team, the surrounding countries were also traveling in the starry night.
If anyone in this era could fly into the sky to check, they would find that there were countless chariots and horses on the earth heading in the same direction.
From Chang'an to Fanyang, it takes five days to get there on a fast horse, but the convoy is slow, and the 2,000-mile journey takes a month.
By the time the Datang team saw Fan Yang, the sky had already begun to fall with goose feathers and heavy snow.
At this time, Fan Yang has become extremely lively.
Although there are still signs of the fires, some houses have been torn down and rebuilt, and 100,000 destitute people have been fighting day and night for more than four months before finally having a permanent place to live.
In addition to the dwellings of the destitute, a large number of inns were built in Fanyang City, but unfortunately it was still filled with the sudden influx of people, and the whole city seemed to be alive in a day.
The Datang convoy walked slowly along the official road and slowly approached the city in the ice and snow.
Due to the cold weather after the winter, almost all the carriage curtains were sealed, but there were some noble ladies who were proud and opened the curtains despite the cold.
For example, Empress Changsun is like this, she has been lifting the curtain of the car to look around, and suddenly saw a huge stone tablet in front of her, Empress Changsun suddenly became excited, and exaggeratedly shouted: "Your Majesty, look, Fan Yang has arrived, it is a martial monument, it is our nephew's Zhige for martial arts......"
At this time, Li Shimin was reviewing the folds in the carriage, and when he heard this, he seemed to be very surprised to despise his wife, and said lightly: "It's just a stone tablet, it's nothing more than a gimmick made by a stinky boy. ”
It's a pity that he hasn't finished speaking, and the corner of his eye just saw the giant monument through the car curtain, and the music in Li Shimin's hand fell to the ground with a snap, and subconsciously blurted out: "Good guy, this giant monument is afraid that it has to be two zhang high, no wonder the hundred horsemen will say that this monument has the air of arrogance in the world, weighs 10,000 jun, and is the first ...... in the world."
The emperor's mouth was full of shock!
Empress Eldest Sun smiled and mocked her husband: "Who said just now that you want to maintain your graceful bearing?" ”
Li Shimin's face twitched, and he said with a slight sneer: "I am actually not shocked, I mainly praise the child, after all, this is the arm of the stinky boy, I am not stingy to praise as an uncle." ”
Empress Eldest Sun snorted, covering her small mouth and giggling.
At this time, he suddenly heard the rumbling of hooves in the distance, and it seemed that thousands of war horses were galloping wildly, Li Shimin's face was shocked, and Empress Changsun's face turned pale.
The emperor was about to ask the hundred horsemen outside the frame, when he suddenly heard a long howl in the distance, the sound was rolling like thunder, piercing through the wind and snow, and said respectfully: "Minister, King Zhao of the Tang Dynasty Xifu, led 100,000 people in Fanyang City, more than 30 miles out of the city, to welcome His Majesty in person." ”
As soon as these words came, Li Shimin was immediately reassured, and the emperor's face showed satisfaction, but he pretended to reprimand in his mouth, as if he was displeased: "This kid will do some things that are vain." ”
Empress Eldest Sun was very satisfied, and couldn't help but say coquettishly: "Child, this is respecting you." ”
In fact, both of them know that this is really a vain thing.
For example, leading 100,000 people to greet him, in fact, it is just an imaginary number of words, and there are more than 30 miles out of the city, and he is talking nonsense with his eyes open, at this time, the Datang convoy has arrived at the foot of Fanyang City, and it will not be more than a mile away from the city gate.
But etiquette is etiquette, and while everyone knows it's a lie, it also represents a kind of respect.
Li Shimin slowly moved to the edge of the car window, looked out of the window and watched from afar, as far as he could see, there was heavy snow in the sky, and in the heavy snow stood three thousand Xuanjia iron horsemen, standing against the wind and snow under the guidance of a young man.
The young man was Li Yun, but when he saw that he was holding a small burning stove in his arms, he didn't know what kind of firewood was burning in the small stove, and it could still spew flames in the wind and snow.
Li Shimin was amazed, and Empress Eldest Sun also felt that she had seen a strange scene, but both of them were a little confused in their hearts, and they didn't know what Li Yun was going to do with a small stove?
While he was guessing, he suddenly saw Li Yun running over with a small stove, he ran to the carriage in a few steps, stood under the window and looked up and smiled, and said, "Second uncle, second aunt, welcome to Fanyang City, little nephew will send you a stove to warm your hands." ”
As he spoke, he raised the stove above his head and respectfully passed it in through the window.
Just this simple move, Li Shimin and the eldest grandson both sighed with emotion.
This kid is heartwarming!
