Chapter 20 Wu Meiniang went south to the south of the Yangtze River
Lizheng Palace!
This is a simple and luxurious women's boudoir!
It covers a large area, but there is no luxurious furnishings, even the bonsai can not be seen, the walls around are hung with several pairs of calligraphy and paintings, the inscription is the world's famous family, any one is sold on the market is a sky-high price.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, no one would have believed that this simple woman's boudoir would be the eldest grandson's empress.
Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty sat leisurely on the mat and enjoyed the service of Empress Changsun, the pair of delicate hands rubbed on his shoulders, that technique, that posture, is definitely a master-level level.
Li Shimin groaned comfortably, and his eyes narrowed into a slit. Because of the punishment of the eldest grandson Wuji, those arrogant old ministers in the court have also settled down one by one, and in the past few months, like a kitten, he has been less worried.
There is a saying that "if you don't whip a horse, you won't run, and if a child doesn't fight, you'll go crazy", and sometimes it should be whipped and whipped. However, it is really not easy for a huge empire to operate, even if there are no individual ministers to find trouble, there is still no leisure.
Especially about the construction of libraries in various places, which is a blessing for the poor families in various places, but this is not the case for those people of the world. They rely on the cultural knowledge they have at their disposal, and they are overwhelmed by the poor at every turn.
Although there are a large number of children of the Han family, due to the environment in which they were born, unless they are those demon-level talents, they are far inferior to the talents cultivated by everyone in the world. But as long as the children of the poor have the same learning environment as the clan, there is no doubt that the children of the poor will rise.
They have always looked down on the children of the poor family, how can they be willing to let the children of the poor family climb on their heads?
With Li Shimin's support, those clans dare not oppose it explicitly. But there are policies and countermeasures, and those clans are secretly playing some tricks, which is really not ordinary and difficult to deal with. They marry every year, and their relationship is inseparable, and they affect the whole body, even if Li Shimin is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he can't ignore the overall situation.
He also had a headache about this, and then thought about how to let Datang get rid of his dependence on the family.
"Your Majesty ......" While thinking about it, Empress Eldest Sun suddenly interrupted Li Shimin's thoughts: "There is a question here for the concubine, I don't know whether to ask or not!" ”
Li Shimin reached out and touched the soft little hand on his shoulder and said, "You and I are husband and wife, what is there to say or not......
Empress Eldest Sun added some force to her hand and said softly: "Actually, Changle asked me to ask." ”
Li Shimin paused for a moment, and said in his heart: "That girl is only two months old, is it necessary to be so nervous?" He went on the expedition a few years ago, and it has been more than half a year, and it has not been like this. Unconsciously, his tone revealed a sour taste, and the dearest and most painful baby daughter only had that stinky boy in her heart, and she was in a hurry after only walking for more than two months. My father, the emperor, is close at hand, and I haven't come to see her for a few months, and I hurt her in vain. It must have been taught by that stinky boy.
He was reluctant to blame Changle and shifted all the blame to Du He.
Empress Changsun saw that Li Shimin was a little displeased, and muttered, husband and wife for many years, where did they not know what their husband was thinking in his heart, in private, especially in front of her, this emperor who ruled the world often did some childish things. For example, if I was wronged by Wei Zheng in the court, I couldn't vent this fire in my heart, so I would run to her and complain: "I want to kill Wei Zheng, a hillbilly."
In fact, if Li Shimin really had murderous intentions towards Wei Zheng, with his means, with Wei Zheng's surname, and with Wei Zheng's hundreds of offences against Long Yan, even if he had ten heads, it would not be enough to get rid of it.
Li Shimin did not kill him, but ran to Empress Changsun to sulk, muttering that he wanted to kill Wei Zheng, a hillbilly. What is the difference between this and a child who has been wronged and goes to the nearest person to confide in him, can Li Shimin really kill Wei Zheng?
Empress Changsun smiled and said, "Okay, Your Majesty, isn't Changle thinking about you and He'er?" You are so heavy, if Changle often returns to the palace. What will outsiders think, what will they think? They will say that it is because of Changle's dredging that the emperor is so heavy, which is not good for the emperor and for He'er! ”
Li Shimin also knew that what Empress Changsun said was reasonable, but in his heart he felt that his king's prestige was despised, and said angrily: "Whoever dares to chew his tongue will cut off his head." ”
Empress Changsun also knew that Li Shimin was just talking, and she didn't care, and said: "It's reasonable for Changle girl to be so anxious, when she goes out to fight, at least there is news." He'er has been gone for two months, and she doesn't know what she's doing. Your Majesty, tell me yourself, as a wife, can Changle not worry? That kid is really good, he doesn't have a letter, he's busy, and the concubine doesn't believe it, and she doesn't even have time to write a letter. ”
Li Shimin shook his head and said, "This queen is wrong to blame that stinky boy...... Well, how to say it, this mission is quite steep, and he must not reveal his identity. Until he completed his mission, he couldn't even use his own name, let alone write a letter. ”
Empress Eldest Sun's expression was moved, and she whispered, "Could it be that there is still a danger to your life?" What exactly is the task? When she said this, she was also a little embarrassed. This has been the queen for more than ten years, she has never asked about political affairs, nor has she participated in political affairs, but because of this matter, it is related to her favorite daughter and son-in-law who she admires the most. ”
Li Shimin pulled her to sit beside him and said, "You are like this, you and I are husband and wife." If there's anything you can't say, it's okay to tell you, so that you don't mess around! ”
When Li Shimin was still the king of Qin, he was coveted by Li Jiancheng because of his outstanding military achievements, and he was maliciously slandered, saying that he was suspected of rebellion. Li Yuan believed it at the time, he was still fighting outside at that time, and it was the eldest grandson Empress who walked around the palace under the pressure of public opinion, accepted everything at the moment, and still served her father-in-law and mother-in-law as before, which gave Li Shimin time to explain.
For the eldest grandson queen, Li Shimin is respectful and loving, and no one can replace his position in his heart.
Even in history, after the death of Empress Changsun, this relationship is still like this and has not deteriorated. In this feudal era, it is important to pay attention to "filial piety first, the father does not sacrifice the son, and the husband does not sacrifice the wife".
But Li Shimin, as a feudal emperor, completely ignored this, and even built a high-rise building in the palace, and every day he had to look at the eldest grandson queen buried in Zhaoling. Although in the end, under Wei Zheng's admonition, he cried and demolished the high-rise building, but his longing did not diminish at all.
Although Li Shimin is lustful, only the eldest grandson queen really makes him feel true, and he has complete trust in her, and immediately told the eldest grandson queen the cause and effect of the matter.
Empress Eldest Sun was dumbfounded for a while, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin's grievances, she understood the most about the grievances, she couldn't think of the changes in Xuanwumen, and she didn't understand the matter, but it was the beginning of another thing, she was silent for a long time, and then said with a pale face: "In this way, He'er's situation is not very dangerous?" ”
Li Shimin didn't deny it, but nodded affirmatively: "Don't worry, the queen, that kid has good martial arts, he is also clever, he has eight hearts, and even your brother's old fox was planted in his hands a while ago." It's going to be fine, I'm not going to send my son-in-law out to die, I should believe that he is. ”
Empress Changsun already knew about Changsun Wuji and Du He, one was her own brother, and the other was half of her son, who was not a helper, and she also had a headache about it, and she had no complaints about Li Shimin's punishment, but when she heard Li Shimin call his brother an old fox, she was a little unhappy, and said: "Who is the old fox!" ”
"Uh......" Li Shimin hurriedly said: "It was Du Xiaozi who got the nickname for his uncle, which is quite appropriate, I accidentally called out for a while, if you want to blame him, it has nothing to do with me." "Dead friends don't die poor, Li Shimin shamelessly sold Du He.
Du He was not there, and Empress Eldest Sun was not easy to pursue, but said: "Your Majesty is so confident in He'er?" But you must know that they have been hiding for more than ten years, and He'er is young after all, and there may not be some old ministers who have experience in handling certain things. "'They? No way! Li Shimin denied it, "When it comes to martial arts, they may not be as good as that kid, they are witty, let alone smart." There are only a few people who can take on this role, but none are more suitable than that kid. I felt that in order to accomplish this task, it was not only a matter of wit, but also of chance. Do you want to...... Those beam-jumping clowns have been lurking in Chang'an for so long, and no one has noticed their existence, but they let that kid bump into them and annihilate them in one fell swoop, this is the chance. When the opportunity comes, things will come to the door automatically, so I always thought that the only person who could completely remove this thorn was Du He. ”
Longjing Tea House, Wu Meiniang's boudoir!
Wu Meiniang and Wu Jingniang looked at each other boredly!
"Alas!" Wu Meiniang sighed.
"Alas!" Wu Jingniang did the same, and also sighed.
"Alas!" Wu Meiniang sighed again.
"Alas!" Wu Jingniang learned again.
Wu Meiniang hit her violently: "The little guy is going to be cool, don't make noise about your second sister, I'm upset!" ”
Wu Jingniang hugged her head with her aggrieved hands and said: "If the lover is gone, I will beat the little sister to get angry, the second sister is good or bad, ignore you!" ”
The reason why Wu Meiniang chose to engage in business was only because she was desperate and needed to make ends meet, but then she worked so hard because she wanted Du He to look at her differently.
But now that Du He disappeared out of thin air, he only felt that he couldn't lift his energy, and all the things were explained, and the shopkeeper took over.
"Where did you go? Why is there no news at all! Wu Meiniang lay on the table weakly, her fingers drew circles, thinking about the scene of her life, and couldn't help laughing.
Yang walked into the room and saw Wu Meiniang's appearance, shook her head helplessly and said, "Meiniang, your eldest sister has sent a letter, she said that she is in a bad mood, it is better to relax!" The scenery of Jiangnan is very good, do you want to go to Jiangnan for a walk? ”
Wu Meiniang didn't want to go, but she felt a throbbing in her heart, and nodded unexpectedly in agreement.
