Fission Chapter 15: Fuchu Inquiry
"Big brother has his own family, so he has to take care of them more. But you are going to marry far away from another country, far from any of us. Tang Lanji persuaded, but it was okay not to say it, as soon as he mentioned this matter, Tang Lansi aroused sadness again, tears fell down, Tang Lanji on the side saw this scene, and regretted in his heart: I shouldn't have mentioned this matter.
"I've been thinking that if I wasn't this princess, I grew up in an ordinary family, even though I suffered a little, but I accompanied my family and had brothers and sisters to accompany me. It's better than now that I am married thousands of miles away by myself, lonely for a lifetime, and there is no one around me to talk to. Tang Sisi said while crying.
Tang Jiji's original words of consolation were about to be spoken, but when he heard this, he swallowed it and sighed faintly.
Being in the emperor's family, born rich, but also must bear the corresponding obligations, this is the will of heaven, and it is impossible for God to let one person take all the luck.
Gently rubbed the head of the Si, and the hand was about to brush away the tears she shed, but stopped in the air, and patted the shoulder of the Si Si,
"This is the responsibility of us, the princes and princesses, to give everything for the foundation of the Tang Dynasty." Tang Shuji said slowly,
"The world originally felt that the prince died on the battlefield in order to protect the country, and the princess married another country to tie the two countries with the best result. Otherwise, what are you doing with us people? If you want to open it, then Wei is not respected by all countries, it is much better than those small countries, you don't have to worry about war and annihilation, and you don't have to worry about lack of food and clothing. Tang Sisi slowly stopped crying, and wiped away her tears with a handkerchief.
"Look at the cat crying like a flower cat. I really should take you to the mirror to have a good look. Tang Langji teased.
Lan Si glanced at him, the current Tang Lan Ji was like when she was a child, secretly made her cry, and then made fun of her crying, she really hoped to go back to that time, there was no trouble, and she was just afraid that the university would check her homework every day.
"Okay, then when the prince of Wei came to propose, I received him on the northern front. A good young man, knowledgeable, extraordinary, and handsome. I'm afraid that if you get married, you won't be happy and forget about our brothers and sisters. Tang Zhiji comforted.
Hearing this, Tang Lusi said half annoyed and half joyful: "I am not acting like a brother anymore." ”
"Isn't that a relief for you". The two talked a lot, but they had missed the lunch time, and it was not until the maid of Emperor Li's bedroom came to look for them that the two separated, and Tang Lanji also said to Tang Lansi before parting: "After a while, I will ask my father and the emperor to invite my brothers and sisters to the mansion and have fun together." Tang Sisi smiled and responded, whatever his second brother promised, he would do.
Tang Liji returned to the mansion, let the food be sent into the study, let Yu Feiying and Zhao Li come in together, the three of them sat down, Tang Liji roughly told the two of them what Tang Lili said, but did not include the plan, just said that Tang Lili asked him to help the household department and the military department prepare for the Eastern Expedition.
"Zhao Li, you are in Linyang City, and you know a thing or two about the affairs of the court, what do you think." After a few bites of lunch, Tang Ziji drank tea and asked,
"I heard that this crusade was mentioned three or four months ago, as if it was mentioned in the Zhongshu court. At that time, most of the ministers agreed, and later His Majesty said that he would let the two armies of Zuowei and Zuowei attack the main attack, and many ministers did not advocate the Eastern Expedition. This discussion was met with a severe drought a few days ago, and the DPRK and China put the matter on hold, but did not completely veto the matter. These days, the drought has been subdued, and most of the ministers should be waiting for His Majesty to bring up the matter again. I'm afraid there will be some discussion. Zhao Li said.
"Oh, which ministers were against it at that time." Tang Lanji said with interest,
"The prince also knows that the first to bear the brunt is the group of ministers headed by Liao Hou, and the Zhuangzi rewarded by those ministers mainly Liao Hou is at the junction of the Tang Kingdom and the Dadong Kingdom, and according to the nearby grain transfer, those Zhuangzi may not bring them any benefits. Then there are the ministers led by General Tian, and to be honest, I really don't know what good it is for them to oppose it. Going to the Great Eastern Kingdom, once they have military exploits, they will rise to the top, and they oppose it for some reason. Hearing Zhao Li's words, Tang Lanji sneered, and said slowly: "Hehe, I'm afraid of death, without the left guard and Zuowei of the Zhenbei camp, the two armies may not be able to fight the army of the Great Eastern Kingdom, I think some people have this in mind." As for Tian Xiqi, that old fox ......"
"I'm afraid that tomorrow, there will be a war of words above the court." Zhao Li analyzed,
"Since Your Majesty has already told the prince, it means that it cannot be changed. Although there will be debate, the outcome is decided. Yu Feiying also said.
Tang Lanji said: "Yes, that's why I said to the two of you, in the future, the two of you will probably be busy." When the two heard this, they didn't react, and Tang Lanji said again: "Okay, let's talk to you first, don't spread the word." There's nothing going on here, go ahead. The two got up and walked out of the door, Tang Lanji shouted: "Feiying", Yu Feiying looked back and was puzzled,
"Forget it, it's okay, let's go." , Yu Feiying shook his head: The prince has been too weird lately. After the two left, Tang Lanji got up and closed the door, and a voice came from behind Tang Lanji, and an almost ghostly figure sat at the table at the same time.
"I don't plan to tell Yu Feiying the truth." Tang Cheng didn't reply: "Feiying is pure and kind-hearted, and he is not good at scheming, telling him will only increase his worries." Tang Liji turned to look at this person, it was Xiao Dezi who sent the letter to Zhenbeiying a few days ago, at this moment Xiao Dezi changed into clean clothes, and his figure was still thin, but his face had long since lost his childishness, and the young man's face showed a mature temperament that was not commensurate with him,
"You really don't dare to be flattered by this dignity. And what should I call you? And how do you know I didn't tell the whole story. The little Dezi drank tea and said quietly: "Of course I am a little Dezi now." According to the intelligence and your father's temperament and personality, it's no problem to guess seven or eight points. ”
"Oh, you know my father well?" Tang Lanji said with interest,
"I don't understand, and it's because I don't understand that it's even more terrible. With my information, I have not found any problems with your father, which has never happened to any emperor in this world. Anyone who ascends to the top as the king of a country is more or less dishonorable in his hands. Unfortunately, your father, as far as I know, has very clean hands. There are only two cases, one is that he is indeed clean and does not have any scheming. The second is that he is so powerful, so powerful that he destroys everything. Through the later variety, I believe in the second kind, when your uncle was the first emperor abolished the prince, this person is the dragon and phoenix among the people, in the end, although it was because of the borrowed seal and bad things, but your father because of the handling of this matter, he became a celebrity in the Tang court, sought after by hundreds of officials, and finally left the princes behind, became the prince, and finally ascended the throne. It's hard for me to imagine that he's a person without any scheming. Xiao Dezi said, Tang Liji stared at him and said, "It seems that you do have a hand in intelligence." ”
"Do you think I only brought myself with me before I came here?"
"And what does your intelligence say about me?" Hearing this, Xiao Dezi's originally serious face changed into a deep face and said nonsense: "Don't say, don't say." When this person was about to say something, he heard footsteps outside and whispered: "After tomorrow, I will come to you again, and we will discuss it at that time." Then he got up and flashed behind the bookshelf.
