The eldest princess Liu Lian is Cai Yan's daughter. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Liu Lian and Liu Xiong are only one month apart, and they are the real eldest sister among many princes and princesses. And because of Cai Yan, the princes and princesses rarely dare to bully Liu Lian, as for Liu Lian herself, she really has a little Wu Zetian's demeanor, and she has to take the lead in everything, even if Liu Xiong sees Liu Lian, he doesn't dare to argue with him.
I don't know why, whenever Liu Tai sees Liu Lian, he always sees Wu Zetian's shadow a little, therefore, Liu Tai will unconsciously alienate Liu Lian, of course, Liu Tai is not that he doesn't love Liu Lian, even if Liu Lian is strong, he is still a good girl in front of Liu Tai.
But Liu Tai didn't like the appearance of such a strong princess in the royal family. After all, the influence of powerful figures with female surnames on a dynasty in history is too deep. Especially Wu Zetian, a woman like Wu Zetian, said that she was not good, but the prosperous era she created even surpassed that of Tang Taizong, saying that she was good, but she was femme fatale, and even killed her own son in order to fight for power and profit.
If Liu Lian becomes the second Wu Zetian, it is conceivable that the Liu Dynasty may really change its surname. Therefore, Liu Tai must supervise Liu Lian's surname when he was young, of course, maybe it is because Liu Tai is too careful, after all, Liu Tai is still in the prime of life at this time, and there is no problem in living for another thirty or forty years, and can Liu Lian become the second Wu Zetian? Under Liu Tai's brilliance, it is obviously not very realistic, unless Liu Tai's heirs are all dead
Because of Cai Yan, Liu Lian's status in the palace is not ordinary, but because of Liu Lian, Liu Tai is a little dissatisfied with Cai Yan's discipline of him. After all, Liu Lian grew up under Cai Yan's care, Cai Yan is a virtuous woman, and she should say that she will not teach Liu Lian such a domineering daughter, but the truth is completely opposite, of course, Liu Tai is not qualified to blame Cai Yan, after all, after Liu Lian was born, Liu Tai had almost no time to accompany him and neglected his love for his daughter.
The second princess Liu Ya is the daughter of Mi Wen, the Mi family has a very great influence in the court and the opposition, and the sphere of influence of its business house not only envelops the entire Han Dynasty, but also even the Western Regions, Wadao, Goguryeo, Sanhan, Yizhou, and Tianxi have their branches.
Over the years, because the Kyushu Commercial Bank has joined forces with the Zhen family and the Mi family, monopolizing most of the commercial businesses within the dynasty, the rights of the three major commercial houses in some places and even the Ling family are above the government, which is not what Liu Tai wants to see, but Liu Tai has been delaying the rectification of the three major commercial houses because of the Southern Expedition Campaign, and for a long time, he has raised a tiger on his side.
Kyushu Commercial Bank is okay, its internal staff are completely Liu Tai's henchmen, but the situation of the Zhen family and the Mi family is a bit chaotic, although most of the rights and interests of the Zhen family and the Mi family are in the hands of Liu Tai, but the problem is that because of Liu Tai's share system, the period is full of gate lords and even Confucianism.
The hundred-legged insect died but did not stiffen, because of a loophole, those gate lords saw the needle and stretched out their hands to the two major trading houses. Of course, it is inevitable that there is also the possibility that the Mi family and the Zhen family did it deliberately, after all, there are also people in the Zhen family and the Mi family who are unwilling to be seized by Liu Tai, and because of the shareholding system proposed by Liu Tai, the Zhen family and the Mi family can pull the majority of Zhengda's soldiers and gate valves onto the family battlefield and become an invisible strength against Liu Tai.
Of course, it is impossible for the people of the Zhen family and the Mi family to dare to openly confront Liu Tai. Mi Zhu, Mi Fang, Zhen family elders and others all know that if they really anger Liu Tai, it will be a real disaster. But because of the three daughters of the Zhen family and Mi Wen, the figures of these two families dared to collect the rights of the business house in a small part for their own benefit.
It can be said that the relationship is very complicated, and even if Liu Tai wants to deal with it, it cannot be solved at one time. The Mi family is okay to say, after all, Miwen only gave birth to a daughter to Liu Tai, and she is not the eldest princess, and Mi Wen herself has a weak surname, and she belongs to the kind of person who has no opinions.
But the Zhen family is different, you know, Zhen Mi gave birth to Liu Tai's eldest son! In the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Western Han Dynasty, the eldest prince represented the future crown prince! Even during the two dynasties, the crown prince may not be the eldest prince, but his actual status far exceeds that of other princes, and among Liu Tai's six princes, each of the three daughters of the Zhen family accounts for one, and the first three princes have half of the Zhen family's bloodline.
It is conceivable how much the Zhen family's invisible status has swelled under the influence of the three princes! Liu Tai currently has six sons, if Liu Tai does not have a new son born in the future, then the children born to the three daughters of the Zhen family will have half of the chance of inheriting the throne. That's how it evolved! As long as one of Liu Tai's first three princes is elected as the crown prince to inherit the throne, then the status of the Zhen family will definitely rise to the top of any family in the future!
Therefore, the tail of the Zhen family has been a little cocked in recent years, and almost everyone will unconsciously take a step back when dealing with the Zhen family. After all, the Zhen family is too strong at present, even if the Mi family cannot be compared with it in any aspect, but the Zhen family also knows how to behave, and on some issues, they will never dare to offend Liu Tai's rebellion, if Liu Tai is angered, the demise of the Zhen family, and the possibility of the three princes inheriting the unification in the future, are likely to be shattered because of this.
Don't think about the family, you have to think about the three princes! The elders of the Zhen family understand this very well, and because the Zhen family fully supports Liu Tai in any way, and even during Liu Tai's third southern expedition, the Zhen family used the strength of the clan to collect grain and grass for Liu Tai, which really helped Liu Tai a lot, so how could Liu Tai deal with the Zhen family?
The topic is far away, no matter how arrogant the Zhen family is, it is impossible to override Liu Tai's head, if the Zhen family continues to be huge in the future, Liu Tai may still make a move on the Zhen family. Therefore, the strength of the Zhen family can still be controlled at present.
Among the many princesses, the third princess Liu Qin is the most smart. Because her biological mother is Zhen Xiang'er, Zhen Xiang'er has foreign blood, and the daughter she gave birth to is naturally a mixed-race child, with an exotic style, at a young age, she is a little charming and soulful, and because of Liu Qin's specialness, Liu Tai is also very fond of it, and often designs some strange small gift costumes on Liu Qin, and dresses Liu Qin like a little fairy.
Speaking of Liu Qin, it is natural to talk about Zhen Xianger. After all, Zhen Xiang'er's identity is indeed different, she is a down-and-out princess of a certain kingdom in the Western Regions in the past, this is not the point, the point is because Zhen Xianger's maiden family is actually the Zhen family. In this way, the joint power of the four daughters of the Zhen family in the palace is huge.
Liu Tai doesn't like to see the battle of the harem concubines, but in history, gods and martial arts such as the Qin Emperor and Han Wu can't avoid this happening, can Liu Tai avoid it? In the palace, the four daughters of the Zhen family because of their mother's relationship, Yanran united into a faction of forces, and they have the most right to speak, although Zhen Xianger, an exotic woman, does not like to fight, but after all, there is a Zhen character in the name so far, what can Zhen Xianger do?
To tell the truth, Zhen Xianger is really pitiful, because of her appearance, even if her status is noble, some people will gossip in private, if it weren't for Liu Tai's majesty, I'm afraid that those gossips will be ugly and make Zhen Xianger commit suicide in shame. You must know that in the current era, the Han people subconsciously believe that they are the most powerful people in the world, and other races are just slaves, and this idea of superiority does make the Han people able to exert strong morale in the face of other races at war.
But because of this, the Han people will disdain to follow the footsteps of the times, resulting in the future Qing Dynasty, hundreds of years behind the foreign people, well, the topic is far away, now it is the Han Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty can have thousands of years, and because of the appearance of Liu Tai, the Qing Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty in history can still appear? Obviously impossible!
Liu Tai is very pitiful to Zhen Xianger, men sometimes make mistakes, as the saying goes, domestic flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers. Zhen Xianger, the "wild flower", really fascinated Liu Tai at some times, and because of Zhen Xianger's mixed race, Liu Tai is very accommodating in many places.
In Liu Tai's influence, Zhen Xiang'er, who met for the first time, is open, has a sense of surname, and is no different from the surname of foreigners, and there is nothing that surprises Liu Tai, but over the years, Zhen Xiang'er in the palace is more like a lady than Gongsun Yu'er, Zhen Mi and others, she doesn't dare to speak loudly, and she blushes from time to time in front of Liu Tai.
But Liu Tai also understands why Zhen Xiang'er is like this, because Zhen Xiang'er really hopes to fully integrate into the big family of the palace, for this reason, Zhen Xiang'er has to change the habits of foreign people, learn from the daughter of the Han family to please many sisters, and make Liu Tai feel refreshed.
The little princess Liu Yan is the daughter of Gongsun Yu'er. Although Liu Yan is young, her spleen surname is very similar to Gongsun Yu'er, even Liu Tai couldn't have imagined that Gongsun Yu'er would be a mother before Gongsun Dan, after all, Gongsun Yutian's surname is active and acts without any scruples. But is it possible to speculate about pregnancy?
Liu Tai still likes Liu Yan very much, naughty and cute Liu Yan likes to stick to Liu Tai very much, and sometimes even forces Liu Tai to tell small stories with his mother Sun Yu, which makes Liu Tai really anxious at some times, just to remember the memory of some call stories buried deep in his memory.
It is worth mentioning that the demise of Goguryeo some time ago has made Gongsun Yu'er feel very bad recently. Although Gongsun Yu'er also understands that a woman should not ask too much about family and state affairs, you must know that Gongsun Yu'er has half of the blood of the Goguryeo royal family!
Now that Goguryeo has been destroyed, it means that half of Gongsun Yu'er's maiden family is gone, and even not long ago, Gongsun Yu'er got accurate news that Gongsun Yu'er's eldest uncle Goguryeo King Gao Wunan died on the battlefield, and the second uncle Gao Baqi was killed in the Goguryeo palace, and the third uncle Gao Yanyou was missing.
If it is not bad, in the opinion of Gongsun Yu'er, the third uncle Gao Yanyou must have died in battle, although Gao Yanyou has the city of Goguryeo God of War, but the question is that the strength of the Tianci Army is also known to the world, under the pursuit of the Tianci Army, how long can Gao Yanyou survive and breathe?
Losing three uncles at once, can Gongsun Yu'er not be sad? And his parents, Gongsun Du and Gao Xianzhu, went deep into the Tianxi battlefield, and there was no news back, to be honest, in the palace, Gongsun Yu'er, who enjoyed all the glory and wealth, was not happy at all, unhappy, and even sometimes a little dissatisfied with Liu Tai.
Fortunately, although Gongsun Yu'er is naïve, she also knows that her husband Liu Tai is not an ordinary person, and there are some things that cannot be said or said, if they are said, it will not only affect Gongsun Dan'er, but even affect their parents who are far away in Tianxi.
But Gongsun Yuer is in a bad mood, can Liu Tai not see it? Although Liu Tai's heart hurts, he can only ignore it ruthlessly. After all, Goguryeo is a country that must be destroyed, and the Gao royal family is all ambitious, if it is kept, it will inevitably bring disaster to the imperial court, and any threat must be eliminated in the eyes of Liu Tai today!
As for Gongsun Yu'er's father, Gongsun Du, in fact, Liu Tai didn't know how to deal with it earlier, but Gongsun Du did know each other and knew that the land of Middle Earth could not stay any longer.
In this way, even if Liu Tai has the heart to deal with Gongsun Du, he is currently beyond the reach of the whip. Especially when it takes a long time to recover within the dynasty. It is worth mentioning that after Gongsun Du and Gongsun Chan retreated to Tianxi, there was really no news back to the Han Dynasty, even if Liu Tai sent several groups of spies in a row, they could not track down Gongsun Chan and Gongsun Du.
You must know that at the beginning, the two of them united into Tianxi as many as 200,000 soldiers and horses, and almost took away one-third of Yinan's labor force, with such a huge scale, how could it be said that it would disappear when it disappeared? But this is the case, at present, the imperial court only knows that Gongsun Zan and Gongsun Du jointly opened the channel to Europe, and went to Europe to develop through Tianzhu, and there is no other news at all.
You must know that Europe is currently dominating the Roman Empire, and the Roman Empire was still the world's first power twenty years ago, not to mention the millions of mercenaries, even if its equipment strength is not as good as the God-given army, the difference will not be particularly large. And if Gongsun Chan and Gongsun Du bumped into the muzzle of the Roman Empire, you can imagine how tragic it would be.
If Gongsun Chan and Gongsun Du, who once galloped across the grassland and had hundreds of thousands of cavalry, even if they couldn't please under the iron cavalry of the Roman Empire, they could flee with their whole body, but the problem was that Yinan was not suitable for the development of cavalry at all, so there were scattered cavalry troops, and the number was very small.
Of course, the probability of encountering the Roman Empire is very high, but it is not all, with the old way of Gongsun Chan and Gongsun Du, it is very likely that they will change lanes halfway, go south to bypass the Roman Empire, go to Africa and other regions, and may also go north to compete with the northern peoples of Europe.
However, Liu Tai was not optimistic about it, after all, Gongsun Zhan and Gongsun Du's troops did not have enough food and grass supplies and logistics troops. And if you want to exhibit in these two houses, you must have a huge reserve force, there is no winning general in the world, as long as the two of them lose a game, the important surname of logistics will be completely exposed, and then the hundreds of thousands of Han family sons and daughters who are far away from other sides will encounter a miserable end?
