After lunch, then busy.

Prepare Chinese New Year's Eve meal to prepare Chinese New Year's Eve meal, prepare sacrificial supplies to prepare sacrificial supplies, anyway, there doesn't seem to be a single idler in the small courtyard, and even Li Yue, the owner of the courtyard, sewed some sacrificial things by himself.

In the end, Li Kong found that there were only three people who could use it, one of which was naturally Cuizhu, this girl is now inseparable from Li Kong, and depending on Li Yue's meaning, sooner or later, this girl will be admitted to the room as a bed warmer, maybe she can mix a concubine in the future?

Of course, this is just Li Yue's idea, even if now almost the entire Tang officialdom knows that Li Kong is Li Lizhen, the concubine of Li Shimin's favorite daughter, they can't stop a mother's heart.

In addition to Laifu reporting and helping at the same time, the remaining one is a guy named Qixi, who has clear eyebrows and looks a bit motherly, fortunately this guy's sexual orientation is normal, otherwise Li Kong would definitely have to doubt this guy's motive for coming here.

Because it was the first time they had contact, the three of them seemed a little clumsy, full of four couplets and sworn rivals, they actually posted it for a whole hour, and glanced at the sun that was almost invisible in the sky, Li Kong's heart was full of only a feeling of a dog.

But fortunately, everything is done, hang the lanterns, light the lights, the huge yard looks like it finally has a little taste of the New Year, smelling the fragrance wafting out of the kitchen, well, I am just settling down in Datang.

"Wow~ It's so beautiful, huh? The sound of firecrackers bids farewell to the old year, and the spring breeze sends warmth into Tusu? What a beautiful sentence, but what is a firecracker? ”

"Ah, there is this, thousands of households always replace the new peach with the old charm, what a beautiful word, what a beautiful blessing!"

The fuss exclamation came, the corners of Li Kong's mouth twitched, he turned his head to look at Li Chengqian and Li Lizhi who were standing there looking around, sighed deeply, turned around and walked in front of the two, and said, "Why are the prince and princess here?" At this time, the palace still lets people go out? ”

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "Naturally, it is not allowed, but my father has something to ask people to come over and summon Brother Kong into the palace, so the two of us took the initiative to invite Ying over, and by the way, it is also breathable, speaking of which, I haven't seen Brother Kong for many days." ”

"And me, I miss Brother Kong so much!" Li Lizhi grabbed Li Chengqian's shoulders and exclaimed, then lowered her head with a flushed face, her heart was almost ashamed, how could she be so bold to say what she thought in her heart just now? Brother Kong shouldn't think that he is a watery poplar girl, right? Don't!

Li Kong was stunned, Li Chengqian was stunned, although everyone knew Li Liqian's thoughts, but now that Li Liqin is so unreserved, he will directly tear off all the fig leafs, even if all the people here are his own people now, but who can guarantee that there is no one here who is happy?

However, Li Kong was overjoyed after being shocked, it seems that his efforts during this period of time are still quite useful, and Princess Changle's battle can come to an end.

But it's so good that he can't die, at this time, Li Tao didn't know which crazy way he smoked, and he happened to listen to Li Lizhen's words, and in an instant, his mind directly became blank.

Although Princess Shang still has a lot of face now, but for Li Kong, Li Tao is really not sure, this is a son who has escaped, and he will not touch Li Li's reverse scales in the future, what should I do then?

The most important thing is that Li Tao has always been grateful to his son Princess Shang, in the history of his previous life, none of this guy's sons married princesses, but his eldest son, eh, the current second son Li Zhen married a niece of Mrs. England, who is also a member of the Wang family.

But shock is shock, Li Tao will not do the thing of turning his face with Li Kong, not to mention, he doesn't think that Li Kong can't subdue Li Liqian, maybe he can have a good wife for the ages in the future?

So after being shocked, he immediately walked in front of Li Chengqian and Li Liqian, and arched his hand: "Li Tao has seen His Royal Highness the Prince, and he has seen His Royal Highness the Princess. ”

Li Chengqian nodded with a smile: "Uncle Li doesn't need to be like this, we came here this time to let Brother Kong enter the palace, my father has something to ask him, and there is nothing else, so I will leave first, and my little nephew will come to visit after the New Year." ”

Li Tao nodded and said, "In that case, then you should go first, and I'll take a look here." ”

Tai Chi Palace.

Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, at this time in previous years, there was no official business in the Taiji Palace at all, Li Yuan would also take the concubines and children to the back garden to admire the plums, and by the way, watch the children smash black and purple hard lotus seeds on the ice, these lotus seeds were collected and sent to the imperial dining room for processing, making lotus seed porridge or fried lotus seeds.

But this year, Li Shimin directly handed over this matter to Empress Changsun to be fully responsible, and now Empress Changsun is four months pregnant, and her lower abdomen has begun to show signs, fortunately, it does not prevent her from moving, otherwise Li Shimin can only hand over this kind of thing to others or even cancel it directly.

At this time, Li Shimin was sitting in the Ganlu Palace, looking at a book in his hand, which was from a Lang Zhong in the Ministry of Rites, which clearly wrote the conversation record between Li Kong and Ashina Zheqi and Xu Tianmai yesterday, as if he said it with his own eyes, eh, this is not nonsense, according to what Lang Zhong said, this is what he heard with his own ears.

This letter is the impeachment of Li Kong, which lists Li Kong's three major crimes of sabotaging the Tang Dynasty's friendly countries, first, the establishment of inexplicable tariffs, cleverly seizing the resources of the state, second, treating the visitors of the state arrogantly and rudely, simply uneducated, and third, accepting the so-called deposit at will, Lang Zhong said in convincing words that this is Li Kong's acceptance of bribes in a different way.

When he saw this recital, Li Shimin couldn't cry or laugh, not to mention whether what Li Kong did was right or not, just because Li Kong was not an official, this Lang Zhong's impeachment was nonsense.

However, Li Shimin still asked Li Chengqian to call Li Kong, because he was very interested in the tariff proposed by Li Kong, and it seemed that there was another broad road to income waiting for him.

"Tariff two, tax one? This rabbit cub dares to open his mouth, but it's okay, anyway, it is to deprive those aliens, the more the merrier! After a long time, Li Shimin put down the fold with a slight chuckle on his face.

When the sky was dark, Li Kong finally came to the Ganlu Hall under the leadership of Li Chengqian and Li Lizhen, and saw Li Shimin sitting there, Li Kong, who knew how to observe words and feelings, was instantly relieved, Well, this emperor is in a good mood, and it shouldn't be a bad thing today.

But what surprised him was that Li Shimin put on a straight face when he saw him, and said in a deep voice: "Li Kong, you explain to me, what is the tariff?" When did you tell me? Tearing the dragon's skin under the banner of me, are you bold enough? ”

Li Kong was momentarily confused: Did you get the script wrong?
