Chapter 2 The Tip of the Iceberg The more you know, the colder it gets

I drank a bowl of medicinal soup, sweated, and felt much refreshed.

Seeing Li Wei frowning and silent, Bi'er said: "Your Highness, don't worry, maybe the emperor and the queen will be happy with His Royal Highness's benevolence." ”

Glad? Li Zhi thinks, Li Wei doesn't know, Wu Zetian won't be happy anyway.

This matter, in short, will be serious.

So what is the path in front of you? If you want to be safe and sound, you can only kill this cheap old lady. Kill Wu Zetian? Li Wei was taken aback by his own thoughts.

Li Wei knows very little about what happened in history, but he knows how powerful Wu Zetian's wrist is, and he insisted on being the only empress of China, so that countless heroes and heroes admired her pomegranate skirt. Don't look at what you have learned in later generations, even if you bring Du Niang over and fight against Wu Zetian, you will be bombarded so much that you can't even see the scum.

Seeing an ant shaking a tree, it's not as good as that.

Of course, maybe the old lady has begun to show her style at this time, but I'm afraid everyone underestimated her ultimate ability.

Remedy it, the tiger poison does not eat children, and Wu Zetian's ass must be slapped immediately. Thinking of this, he immediately asked, "Bi'er, what about the father and the queen mother?" ”

Bi'er's eyes showed fear, could it really be that she had lost her soul.

He has lost his soul, and he has no soul.

With a worried look, she replied: "Your Highness, there was a drought in Guanzhong in September last year, but fortunately, the autumn harvest came up at that time, but the summer harvest was delayed. So just after New Year's Day this year, His Majesty and the Empress took hundreds of civil and military officials to Luoyang to eat to relieve the pressure on Guanzhong. His Majesty and the Empress left the crown prince in charge of the country, and this is the fifth time His Royal Highness has supervised the country. ”

Li Wei's eyebrows jumped, no wonder Li Hong dared to challenge Wu Zetian's prestige.

"Prince, you can't think about it," Bi'er immediately said in a panic: "Your Majesty left His Royal Highness to supervise the country, it is to study, not to really deal with state affairs." It is the prime ministers who really deal with political affairs, and major matters must be approved by His Majesty and the Empress of Tokyo. Even if it is a small matter, Your Highness, you must not interfere. Xianggong Dai Zhide and Zhang Wenqian are guests of the prince, and they have always taught you well. ”

Speaking of this, Bi'er wanted to stop talking again, the tone of the conversation changed, and continued: "In the past, the prince did not interfere in political affairs, but often went out of the palace to help the poor people. He also saw the soldiers eating elm bark and fluffy grain, and distributed food from the Jialing Temple to them. Several prime ministers have written to the prince to be wise. ”

"What is Iereiji Temple?"

It's okay not to ask, the more I ask, the more worried I become, but Bi'er still replied: "There are three temples in the East Palace, the Servant Temple is in charge of the carriages and horses of the East Palace for the prince, and the Shugen Temple is in charge of the entrance of the East Palace Palace for the prince." The Ierei Temple is in charge of the grain barn for the crown prince. ”

That is, to take their own food to help the soldiers and the people.

However, Li Wei finally understood one thing, that is, he served as the prime minister, and he did not want a layman but powerful prince to dictate his handling of political affairs. As for the relief of grain, it has bought people's hearts.

But the more famous he is, what will his mother think? What would my father think?

Thinking of this, Li Wei was in a cold sweat again.

It's not that there are no benefits left, Li Hong likes to go out, that's good, if you stay in the East Palace all day, what will it become? The golden bird in the iron cage?

But at the moment, whether he is the prince or not, he must first live. If you want to survive and kill your mother, you have to weigh the consequences of this one, and don't even think about it. Erba's mother, as long as this mother is happy, she doesn't dare to do it to herself. This old mother is not happy, don't be a prince, just live until her father dies of illness, and she becomes the emperor as she wishes, and the emperor will not last long.

It's a pity that my father and mother ran to Luoyang, and I couldn't find a partner even if I wanted to.

Bi'er looked east and west and talked about some of the situation.

Li Wei got up and did a set of five bird plays, a total of more than 50 sets of movements, but this body was too poor, and some movements couldn't be done at all. He has a calm personality, there must be a way before the car reaches the mountain, and there should be time to save it, but now this body must be saved. That's the cost.

When he was done, he sat down panting, and Bi'er lamented and ordered someone to bring a bath tub, which Li Wei had seen on TV before, and it was the first time he had seen this thing in real life. It's very tall, half a person tall, and two or three people are so thick. Just boiling hot water, I carried several loads. However, he is the crown prince, and it is not too much to enjoy this treatment. Only I didn't see flower petals sprinkled in it like on TV.

After the eunuch finished pouring hot water and brought a pedal, Bi'er came over and said, "Your Highness, the slave maid will untie your clothes for you." ”

"I'll do this," Li Wei's face turned red, he was not a gentleman, but the little girl was too young.

"Doesn't Your Highness want to serve as a slave?" Bi'er suddenly burst into tears.

"No, this, this ......"

"They used to be served by slaves and maidservants."

Well, where is Li Wei standing, let Bi'er take off her clothes one by one, but she can stand restlessly, this is always not good. After undressing, I slipped into the tub.

Seeing his strange appearance, Bi'er smiled. Although the prince woke up this time, she always felt a little strange, and it seemed that the matter had really been forgotten, but the mind was still there, and the people were still as kind as before. Therefore, it is not necessarily bad.

Bi'er brought the pancreas and wiped it for Li Wei.

This is even worse, Li Wei wanted to refuse several times, but he couldn't bear it. So I closed my eyes and enjoyed it, and felt the little Lori's hand swimming on my body, so I ......

Bi'er's face also turned red, and she thought in her heart that the prince was finally getting bigger and bigger, and she was getting bigger and bigger. Isn't it...... Thinking of this, her hands trembled a few times.

After enjoying a bathing service for Xiao Lori, Li Wei immediately turned his mind to business. There are not far worries, but there must be near-term concerns. Especially himself, the crown prince is good, privileged person, but he has to be blessed to enjoy. If you don't get it right, you're unlucky, and this little Lori is also unlucky.

So he took out the files in the room and looked through them one by one, among which Li Hong's review paid special attention.

Fortunately, he is not proficient in history, but he can still make up for classical Chinese. It's just that history experts come and don't check the information, just by memory, how many historical stories can be remembered. Did he know that he would wear it to the Tang Dynasty, or the era of Wu Zetian, and come to a temporary cramming. Still can't remember too much for him to use.

I could only flip through it myself, and after flipping through it for a while, I saw a memo written by Li Hong, which read: The population of Guanzhong is increasing day by day, and the sons and daughters go out on patrol every day, and they see many hungry people, and talk to them. The sons implored their father to come out of the sand garden and borrow it from the landless people. Heaven has the virtue of great life, and the father is benevolent............

Through the ink, it can be seen that it was not written for a long time, so it was not sent to Luoyang. Li Wei turned his head and asked, "Bi'er, what is Shayuan?" ”

Bi'er said that until now, she also knows that there are three gardens in Chang'an, the West Inner Garden in the north of Taiji Palace, and the East Inner Garden in the southeast of Daming Palace, which is equivalent to the nature of the imperial garden. The largest is Daxing Garden, whose circumference is similar to that of the huge Chang'an City. But I haven't heard of the sand garden.

Bi'er replied: "It is in Tongzhou, a large area of sand and grassland between Luoshui and Weishui, covering an area of more than 30,000 hectares. The imperial court set up a horse herding supervisor here. ”

The herdsmen of the Tang Dynasty were mainly still in Hetao and Lingwu, and there was also a part of the Western Regions of Longyou, and more than 30,000 hectares of land as a horse grazing place may not be very large. The imperial court has not much of it, and there is not much of it. However, as cultivated land, although it is a sandy grassland and close to Luowei, it can be irrigated by a canal and cultivated out, which is still considerable. Moreover, Guanzhong is now very densely populated.

This is another act of good governance.

Li Wei just wanted to put it down, but suddenly said, "Bring the tongue of fire." ”

Bi'er brought the tongue of fire and asked, "Your Highness, what are you going to do?" ”

Li Wei lit the book with a tongue of fire and burned it.

"Prince ......"

This letter of advice will definitely not slap his mother's face, and may win Li Zhi's favor even more. But...... Li Wei looked at the eunuch in the distance and said in a low voice, "Have you heard of the Gong Gao Zhen Lord?" ”

The little maid nodded.

"Not only is the merit high, but the fame will also shake the master. Although my father is not in good health now, he is in full bloom in the spring and autumn, and the queen mother is conscientiously making up for his father's omissions. Under their governance, the Tang Dynasty cooked oil with fire and flowers. But I'm getting older and I'm close to being crowned, is it a good thing or a bad thing to have such a good reputation? There is exactly one sun in the sky, what if there are two suns? So how many masters should the state have? Lone knew that if this recital was presented, it would save many poor people. It will also make Lone's reputation even more upstairs. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? The father and the queen mother may be happy, but is there any villain in the court? ”

Bi'er said: "But, but it's ......"

"If you really want to implement it, use other methods, you have to spread the credit to your father and mother, and you must not add weight to Lonely. Take Gu out for a walk. ”

Turning around, Li Wei was dumbfounded, not to mention the entire Taiji Palace, that is, the East Palace is more than 1,400 meters long from north to south, and more than 800 meters wide from east to west. There are five tall and solemn main halls of Xiande, Chongjiao, Lizheng, Guangtian and Cheng'en, as well as countless institutional palaces such as Zuozangku, Chongwen Museum, Left and Right Spring Fang, Inner Fang, Life Women's Fang, Changshengyuan, Yichun Palace and Yiqiu Palace.

If it weren't for Bi'er to lead and let Li Wei go by himself, he would have been confused inside.

"What do they do?"

Bi'er didn't think of anything else, so she introduced them one by one. The palace courtyard here is not for enjoyment, each place has a related institution, such as the inner palace, there are normally two princesses, Ming Liangdi, six people of Ci Liangyuan, ten people of Chenghui, sixteen people of Zhaoxun, and twenty-four people of Fengyi. Two palms of the concubine and the name of the palace people, the secretary of the three divisions of the cashier, the three palms of the entry and exit of the papers, the three palms of the book and the execution of the female history, the three palms of the treasure and the deed, the rest of the palm, the rules of the division, the palm, the treasure, the food, the doctor, the garden.

In addition to these female palaces, there are also palace maids and eunuchs who serve, such as Bi'er, who serves her personal palace maids. However, because he didn't get married, the inner palace personnel were not complete, and even if he got married, he might not be complete.

There are even the prince's left and right guard rate mansions, the left and right rate of the palace, the Xun mansion, the Yi mansion, the left and right Siyu rate mansions, the left and right Qingdao rate mansions, the left and right prison gate rate mansions, and the left and right inner rate mansions, each with a number of soldiers to obey the dispatch.

"Bi'er, are you saying that the officials and soldiers of these institutions must obey Lone's arrangement?" Li Wei asked in surprise. Listening to the little girl's calculations, the number of officials in the East Palace alone has reached thousands, and the subordinate soldiers are not counted. If this power is used well, it will be of great help to yourself.

"Nominally, yes, but they are still officials and soldiers of the imperial court. The prince can be dispatched for a small matter, if it is a major matter, since the prince has been assumed, the regulations are strict, and it must be reported to the emperor and the prime ministers, just like a few days ago, His Royal Highness put grain, which was agreed by Dai Xianggong, and only then was the grain allowed to be released. ”

"So what kind of person does Lone have to trust?"

Bi'er shook her head in confusion, although the prince in front of her was still very gentle and kind to her, and always made her feel weird.

Li Wei almost wanted to scold, but he understood that if he wanted to gain a good reputation, he could only be a loner. But what is fame used for? It is recognized by the emperor and ministers, so that the succession can be smooth. But just fame, can you take over? Ancient and modern, the dead prince has gone to the sea.

Even if you want to hug Wu Zetian's thigh, you can't leave a hand, at least a few cronies, do your ears and eyes, if there is anything going on, you can notify me. As long as he doesn't do too much, even if Wu Zetian hears it, he will only laugh.

What a mess I took over!
