Wu Cairen, Wu Zhaoyi, Empress Wu, Her Majesty the Empress, these titles will not appear again.

But the title of Wu Meiniang doesn't matter, this is a beautiful praise for a woman, coquettish, charming, and full of charm......

When Wu Erniang heard this name, she pondered for a moment, and immediately accepted it happily.

"Mei Niang, then take a look at the ...... for the husband"

In the Wutong Garden, there was another sound of shyness, which lasted intermittently for a long time.

The next morning, when Wu Meiniang woke up from her sleep, the sun had already risen, and she couldn't help but panic a little and wanted to get up in a hurry.

Who knew that as soon as he moved, he was held down by a big hand, Xie Yi said with a smile: "It's a cold day, it's not easy to sleep lazy, what's the hurry." ”

"But no more...... Sisters, it's time to laugh at me......" Wu Meiniang was a little embarrassed and embarrassed.

Xie Yi shook his head and said, "Don't worry, no, ...... Alas, they have all experienced this, and they have long been surprised; What's more, you worked hard last night, have a good rest......"

Hearing this, Wu Meiniang remembered the embarrassing things last night, as well as her own performance, her pretty face involuntarily turned red, and she buried her head deeply.

"What's the matter, you're shy now?" Looking at the delicate beauty, Xie Yi smiled and quipped.

"No ......"

"Is it uncomfortable?" Xie Yi was a little apologetic, although he had been remembering her first grace last night, so he was very careful to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade. But after all, it has not been occupied for a few months, and once it is occupied again, it is inevitable that there will be some inexhaustibility and some greed. Last night, I scored twice, and I don't know if she can bear it.

Wu Erniang raised her eyebrows and said: "Fortunately, it's all said, people are not delicate flower bones......"

"Hmph, Mei Niang is so daring. Is this a provocation? Do you want to ...... it again" Xie Yi leaned closer, and a certain erect part also invaded the past.

Wu Erniang naturally understood what was going on, and hurriedly exclaimed for mercy, but only promised: "Ah Lang is young and strong, his blood is vigorous, and his concubine is ......."

"Playing with you, how could I be so ignorant?" Xie Yi smiled: "The coming day is long, take your time......"

"Hmm!"

"This will ...... Is it good to take a hot spring with your husband? ”

……

This New Year, the Xie family was a lot more lively, not only the two ladies were pregnant, but also a new Mrs. Ru. Wu Meiniang is also the focus of the New Year's jokes.

The word Mei Niang is really too distinctive, and she has recently been the favorite of the special room, so she has naturally become the object of everyone's jokes, even if Wu Mei Niang is generous, but it is inevitable that she will be shy.

During this period, he also sent people to Huichang Temple to greet his mother, Mrs. Yang, and report the situation, but Mrs. Yang was indifferent to this and didn't ask much at all, as if there was no such daughter.

Failed to enter the palace. has destroyed the good expectations of the mother and the daughter, and it is not surprising that Mrs. Yang is resentful. It seems that in history, this Madame Yang had a strange temperament, and her relationship with Empress Wu was not very harmonious, and it is the same now. I don't know if that will change in the future.

As for the Wu Yuanqing brothers, they have never been in contact at all, and according to Wu Meiniang's meaning, they have long wanted to have dealings with the two brothers. There was no opportunity to retaliate against them. It's already considered to be a face for the old father's spirit in the sky.

That's it!

Xie Yi knew this in his heart, and it was not surprising. I won't force it, how my relatives live comfortably, as for those red tape and parents, it doesn't matter.

In short, if people don't offend me, I don't offend anyone, and if people offend me, the consequences ...... Hum!

……

The New Year is a time for family rejoicing, and it has been the case since ancient times, and thousands of families in Chang'an City are also reunited.

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, a family banquet was still set up in the palace, and the princes were ordered to enter the palace to spend the festival together.

The princes sat down, and Li Shimin was very concerned about the sons, of course, the eyes of pity fell on the many sons, and it was inevitable to favor one over the other.

The treatment of the crown prince Li Chengqian is still silent, and he doesn't say a few words to the emperor, if it weren't for Li Er holding the emperor's grandson Li Xiang in his arms and pampering him, he, the prince, doesn't know how embarrassing he will be.

Li Tai, the king of Wei, is okay, although he is not as enthusiastic as he was some time ago, but he can get by...... Plus he himself can speak, so it's not embarrassing.

Wu King Li Ke didn't say much, but Li Shimin often had approving eyes on him, which made many people jealous.

The most favored is still Li Zhi, the king of Jin, since returning from Dingxiang, the degree of favor of His Royal Highness the King of Jin is not comparable to others.

Li Shimin said with a smile: "Taking advantage of the New Year, I will tell you a happy event. ”

"Oh?" Saying this, many concubines and princes suddenly became interested and curious.

Li Shimin said leisurely: "A few years ago, your aunt and grandmother proposed to me the eldest princess of An, saying that her niece and granddaughter Wang Renli, the queen of the Ministry of Labor, were both talented and beautiful, virtuous and virtuous, and the eldest princess proposed to marry her to a pheasant slave as a wife, and I agreed. ”

When the words landed, everyone was slightly stunned, how to say it, the thing itself is normal. Li Zhi is just fourteen years old during the New Year, and it is time to get married.

Originally, everyone was still curious about when and which woman would be so lucky, but they didn't expect that suddenly, Li Shimin announced the result.

The daughter of the Wang family, the daughter of the Wang family in Taiyuan.

This result suddenly made Li Chengqian and Li Tai notice, and for a prince, the relatives of the Yue family are also important helpers.

As one of the five surnames and seven sects, the Taiyuan Wang clan will undoubtedly increase a lot if they stand behind Li Zhi, then the strength of His Royal Highness the King of Jin will undoubtedly increase a lot! Think about Li Tai's hard work to win a little support from the Shandong family, but now if Li Zhi's marriage is completed, with the Taiyuan royal family as the hub, his advantages will instantly come to naught.

Moreover, the marriage of the prince often has strong political significance, and which prince marries the daughter of whose family is often the purpose, especially when the woman's background is relatively special.

The marriage of the Taiyuan Wang clan is, to a certain extent, a way for the Li Tang royal family to envelop the Shandong scholars, which is a crucial event, and the prince of this marriage is very special.

Such a heavy responsibility fell on Li Zhi's head, which means that if His Royal Highness the King of Jin has a Shandong scholar background in the future, this is a great event.

Come to think of it, people have to be vigilant!

In addition, Li Zhi, the king of Jin, just went to Dingxiang for a while, and he made great contributions, and his reputation and holy favor are at the peak, which is naturally extraordinary.

Li Chengqian and Li Tai couldn't help but think to themselves. At the beginning, the father asked the ninth brother to go to Hedong to pay homage to the eldest princess of Tong'an, and there was a purpose in investigating the case.

It turned out that I was still lucky, but now I have to face it. But fortunately, although Li Zhi married the daughter of the Taiyuan Wang family, she was the daughter of Wang Renli, who was unknown, not the daughter of Wang Renyou, who was the daughter of Luo Shanling, which is also a little intriguing!

No matter what you think in your heart, the younger brother's engagement is always a happy event, and everyone hurriedly smiled with a smile on their faces: "Congratulations to my father, congratulations to my ninth brother." ”

"Ninth brother. Tell the eldest brother, you must have seen the little lady of the Wang family, right? ”

"Congratulations to the pheasant slave, the pheasant slave is going to get married, grow up, really grow up." Li Tai said with a smile: "The fourth brother will definitely buy a gift." ”

Li Zhi didn't expect his request to be passed like this, he made a lot of determination about this matter, and on the first day he returned to Chang'an, he had the courage to tell his father and emperor. At that time, my father didn't express his position, and he didn't know what he was thinking, and he was still worried for many days. And I have never had the opportunity to communicate with Xie Changshi.

This matter has always worried me, but I didn't expect that the father emperor on Chinese New Year's Eve suddenly gave a big surprise, which was really unexpected. At this moment, Li Zhi's heart was full of ecstasy. The excitement is beyond words, but he is still young in the end, and when he is mentioned about marriage, his face can't help but be hot. Can't stand being a little shy.

Li Shimin said with a smile: "If the pheasant slave wants to get married, you brothers naturally have to prepare gifts, and I will also give him a gift." ”

"Father. Erchen ......"

Li Zhi just wanted to excuse himself, but Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "Pheasant slave, don't worry, I plan to give you the Hibiscus Garden as your newlywed residence." ”

"Father, the Furong Garden is too precious...... Li Zhi deliberately excused himself, but when he heard the weight of the gift, he didn't dare to accept it.

Li Shimin shook his head and said: "It's okay, this is what you deserve, and it can be regarded as a reward for your trip to the state and the grassland......

In this way, everyone in the hall congratulated Li Zhi again, but everyone's thoughts were different, among which Li Tai, the king of Wei, reacted the most.

As we all know, a few years ago, the emperor gave himself Luoshuichi and Luoshuidi, which in the eyes of others were unrewarding and honored, adding a lot of glory to himself. Now that my father has given the Furong Garden to Li Zhi, who is much younger than him, what does this mean?

Luoshui Pond is in the eastern capital of Luoyang, and it has been speculated by many people that the Furong Garden is in Chang'an, and it is the most famous and covers the most extensive royal garden. Seventeen miles back to Zhou, Qujiang Pond is among them, it is the first beautiful place in Chang'an, and now belongs to Li Zhi's private property.

Suddenly, how much face should Li Zhi have? What kind of trend will it cause in the court? There is no shortage of ministers in Chang'an City who see the wind and steer the rudder, and they may think what they will think after hearing the news!

Alas!

It's very disturbing!

Li Tai, the prince who has gained something, is very troubled, and the other princes who have gained nothing are even more unhappy, as for the prince who is not present......

The prince who was not present did not know for the time being, and he did not know what the reaction would be, but he could not return to Chang'an for reunion on Chinese New Year's Eve, which was inevitably a little unhappy. This is especially true of their mothers, such as the Yin Concubine......

He and his concubines sat on the side of the bead curtain, and could see the emperor sharing his family with many children, and he could hear the words of the prince promising Li Zhi's marriage and giving rewards, but unfortunately he did not see his own children Li You.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, all the princes gathered in Chang'an, but Li You, the king of Qi, never returned, which made Concubine Yin a little sad, and even felt that the emperor was a little biased. Although the emperor was considering the war in the southwest and the unrest in the north, he ensured that there would be no chaos in the east, and deliberately left Li You, the king of Qi, to deter the Shandong scholars and the reckless.

But Concubine Yin didn't understand these so-called major policies and the needs of the imperial court, or never tried to understand, she just saw that other princes could return to Chang'an to reunite, but her own son really couldn't.

His children are not loved by their fathers, they cannot be reunited with their sons, and their sons have no rewards to speak of......

The emperor is eccentric, he only loves the children of Empress Changsun and Concubine Yang, as for the other princes, where do they have status in his eyes?

However, the other princes have mothers with a high status behind them, and their situation and future are not too bad, but their own son Li You ......

The father is not in pain, there is no help from relatives, and he is embarrassed as a mother, and it is difficult to help his son......

As soon as she thought of this, Concubine Yin felt a burst of uneasiness in her heart, a burst of disgust, and inadvertently a little anger and hatred in her heart.

She naturally couldn't eat the family's happy Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, so she left as unwell, and Wei Guifei, who presided over the female relatives of the backyard, naturally agreed. She could think that Concubine Yin must be missing her son Li You, and she was in a bad mood, but she couldn't imagine that Concubine Yin's thoughts were already far away and terrifying......

In addition to the place of the banquet, the concubine walked alone on the palace road, and most of the guards in the palace on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve were in important places and banquets. There were no people in other places, and Concubine Yin just walked leisurely.

This year's solar term is relatively early, Chinese New Year's Eve has already begun spring, plus the recent weather Qin Lang, not very cold. In such weather, although it is a little lonely to be alone outside, it can also relieve the boredom in my heart.

Unconsciously, Concubine Yin walked to a place, a somewhat deserted, but not unfamiliar place - Changle Gate.

Looking at the empty place and seeing the dimly lit room, Concubine Yin suddenly remembered that there was a person living here, a woman as pitiful as herself.

In the past, I had time to come and see him secretly, but I haven't been here for a long time recently, and even if it's the New Year today, it's reasonable to visit, after all, I was still a concubine in the past.

That's right, the woman living in Changle Gate is Zheng Guanyin, the wife of the hidden prince Li Jiancheng.

The former crown princess did not die, although the East Palace was bleeding at that time, she survived as a woman. For Li Shimin, there is no threat to a female dependent, not to mention that she is also from the Zheng family in Xingyang, it is not wise to kill her, and killing a woman also seems to be degrading to her demeanor.

The crown princess Zheng Guanyin survived, but the sons born to her and Li Jiancheng all died tragically, this is the cruelty of the battle for the throne, but any man who threatens the throne will definitely die.

But fortunately, Zheng Guanyin had two young daughters who saved their lives because of their gender, but the mother and daughter never saw each other again. There are too many political symbols on her, the former crown princess, and she can't be killed, but she can't let it go, otherwise it will easily lead to a lot of trouble.

Therefore, Li Shimin adopted the most common method - house arrest, house arrest in the Changle Gate of the Imperial Palace, as for whether there are rumors from the outside world, it is unknown.

Anyway, Zheng Guanyin has been under house arrest here for many years, and since the change of Xuanwumen, Changlemen has become a forbidden place in the palace, and few outsiders come.

At least in the last year or two, the concubine has stepped in by accident, and the number of visits has gradually increased...... (To be continued.) )
