In recent years, Datang has been very quiet in the military, and rarely has any major moves. Several surrounding countries are also very honest, such as the Western Turks, now there is more than civil strife, the leaders of several tribes have proclaimed themselves as the Great Khan, and they are fighting with each other, coupled with the secret provocation of the Tang Dynasty, it is estimated that it will not be able to stop for more than ten years.

In addition, the Tibetan side is also very honest, because they are now also in trouble, the local Bon and the foreign Buddhism are fighting, this situation is not too serious, but later with the Tang Dynasty to Tubo Buddhism, and Songtsen Gampo is also very annoyed by the Bon control of the government, so in secret also support Buddhism, which has led to the intensification of the contradiction between Bon and Buddhism, the battle between the two religions has entered the white heat, and there have even been many bloodsheds.

Tubo and the Western Turks are too busy to take care of themselves, the Tang Dynasty's domestic industry and commerce are developing rapidly, although agriculture has declined slightly, but because of the grain input from Linyi and other places, there is no shortage of food in the country, in addition to the development of the marine fishing industry, so that seafood began to enter the interior, and the price is relatively cheap, which makes the table of ordinary people begin to become rich.

As long as there is something to eat in their kitchens, the people feel that this is already a prosperous age. However, although the people of the Tang Dynasty are happy and healthy, there will still be some conflicts in the court and the court from time to time.

"No, I don't agree!" In the political hall of Taiji Palace, Empress Changsun scolded Li Zhi in front of her with an angry face, without the slightest maternal demeanor in the past.

In normal times, Li Zhi would have trembled under the anger of Empress Changsun, but today's Li Zhi has his own beliefs. I saw that although he lowered his head, he still insisted: "Queen Mother." As long as the son is a concubine, no one else wants! ”

Seeing that this son of his own disobeyed his will for the first time. This made Empress Eldest Sun also stunned, but then she said angrily: "If I say no, I can't do it, the affairs of the crown princess are up to me and your father, and you don't have to worry about the rest!" ”

"Queen Mother's ......"

Li Zhi wanted to say something more, but Empress Eldest Sun waved her hand and said, "Okay, don't say it anymore, step back!" ”

Seeing his mother drive him out, although Li Zhi still wanted to argue a few more words, when his eyes were full of anger at Empress Shangchangsun. But he was frightened, and he didn't dare to say anything at the moment, and turned around and left the Wangyun Palace.

Li Zhi had long expected Empress Changsun's opposition, and he could also understand his mother's feelings. In fact, it is very simple to say, the eldest brother's position as the crown prince was abolished, and the fourth brother King Wei was also demoted out of Chang'an, which made only himself left by his mother's side, and he was able to sit on the throne of the prince at the beginning. My mother also made a lot of efforts. It is no exaggeration to say that now that my mother has placed all her hopes on herself, she will never allow any factors that will affect her succession.

But unfortunately, Cai'er's identity will have an impact on Li Zhi's position as the crown prince. After all, she is the granddaughter of the former Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, although the Tang Dynasty is now very stable, but there are still many old ministers who have experienced the turmoil at the end of the Sui Dynasty. doesn't have a good impression of the former Sui royal family, if Cai'er really becomes the crown princess. Although those old ministers may not say anything, this will have a certain impact on Li Zhi's position as the crown prince after all. After all, most of those old ministers hold heavy power, and Empress Changsun doesn't want to affect the relationship between Li Zhi and those old ministers because of a marriage.

Thinking of this, Li Zhi sighed and shook his head. Empress Changsun's worries are not unreasonable, but he really likes Cai'er and wants to marry her no matter what, so Li Zhi doesn't plan to give up, it's nothing if he can't convince Empress Changsun today, anyway, he can still persuade his father Li Shimin, in addition, he has already sent a letter to Li Su a few days ago, and the letter should be counted as the day.

Thinking of this, Li Zhi hurriedly left the palace, and then went to Dengxian Tower to find Wang Zihao. Wang Zihao received an order from Li Su a year ago and began to transfer Chang'an's industry to Taiwan, but because he and Qi Wangfu had too many properties in Chang'an, some of them still needed to be sold, so they had been busy for a year, but they still hadn't finished dealing with it, and this also showed in disguise how terrifying his and Li Su's property here was.

When Li Zhi came, Wang Zihao was writing a letter to Li Su, he usually had to report the various situations that happened in Chang'an to Li Su the next day, and along the way he used flying pigeons to pass the book, and he could arrive in a few days.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has just arrived, and His Highness's reply has just arrived, and I am about to send it to you!" As soon as Wang Zihao saw Li Zhi, he immediately stood up and bowed down.

And Li Zhi was also very happy when he heard that the sixth brother's reply had finally come, and hurriedly walked over and said, "Where is the sixth brother's letter, hurry up and show it to me!" ”

Seeing Li Zhi's anxious appearance, Wang Zihao took out a palm-sized note from the drawer of the table in a hurry, and the letter carried by the carrier pigeon was naturally not too big, so it was usually this kind of small note.

And when Li Zhi snatched the note, and then saw what was written on it, the whole person was stunned for a moment, and then the expression on his face seemed to be a little confused, and after a while, that confusion turned into a hesitation, and there seemed to be a feeling of undecidedness, but he didn't forget to thank Wang Zihao, and then returned to the prince's mansion while pondering.

And at this moment, Li Su, who was far away in Taiwan, leaned on the recliner with his back, shaking it for a while, and Wen Xin next to him gently shook a crib, Nanyang on the bed was already asleep, and moved his mouth from time to time, as if he was also breastfeeding in a dream.

This is the back garden of Qi Wangfu in Keelung City, and the place where Li Su is located is a flowing water pavilion, the so-called flowing water pavilion is actually a large pavilion facing water on all sides, and only one promenade can pass, but on the top of the pavilion, there are three aqueducts made of bamboo tubes, these aqueducts lead the water from the height to the pavilion, and then form an artificial water curtain around the pavilion, with the effect of water flow, in order to achieve the purpose of future temperature reduction.

In fact, when Li Su was in Si Xuan, he built a stone house that cooled down with water flow, but the temperature in Si Xuan was not too high, so it was not very useful, and now he lived in Taiwan for a long time, but he often had to face the high temperature in Taiwan, so he built a few such pavilions in the palace for the usual cooling.

But everyone is very busy today, Wu Meiniang received news that one of the five chiefs on Lin Yi's side seems to have moved and needs her to deal with it. Xijun is even more busy integrating the various industries of the Qi Palace, in order to maximize the benefits, and the industries moved from the Tang Dynasty also need her to resettle.

Mengxue goes to medical school every day, speaking of Taiwan's population is insufficient, and men are busy starting their own careers, so the medical school first began to openly recruit female students, and now the vast majority of students in medical schools are female students, and male students have opened several classes separately. As for Jin Shengman, she is even more busy, and the trivial government affairs that were pressed on Li Su in the past are now all handled by her, and in the end, she only needs to review it.

Chouchou and Australia have begun to go to school, Li Su specially set up a noble school next to the palace, only the children of some civil and military officials can go to school in it, of course, now it is still separated from men and women, without these two troublemakers, the palace is much quieter in the morning. It is precisely because of this that there are only two people today, Li Su and Wen Xin.

Originally, Li Su wanted to live a two-person world with Wen Xin, but Wen Xin was reluctant to let his son leave, but Li Su couldn't resist her, so he had to let Nanyang follow. Now Nanyang is just one year old, it is the cutest time, and it is already called father and mother, although walking is still a little unstable, but as long as you practice more, it is estimated that you will be able to run all over the ground in a few days.

The weather is too hot today, Li Su and Wen Xin together, take Nanyang to the flowing water pavilion to rest, at first Nanyang this little guy was very happy, but soon sleepy, fortunately Wen Xin had already let people move the crib over, but the kid just lay on the bed and fell asleep.

Looking at his sleeping son, Li Su suddenly leaned in Wen Xin's ear and smiled: "Wen Xin, you said that when our son grows up, will he be as uneasy as the ninth brother, no matter how we object, he will marry the person he likes?" ”

Wen Xin's ears were itchy by the heat swept out of Li Su's speech, and he smiled and avoided it at the moment, and said with a playful face: "This is very likely, didn't my husband marry me under the pressure of his mother's concubine, with your example, our son is estimated to be like his ninth uncle, and he must be a disobedient child." ”

"Hey, I didn't say I liked you at the beginning, but I think that since we are engaged, we must abide by the marriage contract, otherwise you won't be able to get married!" Li Su also deliberately joked. However, his words caused a beating from Wen Xin, and in the end, Li Su took the initiative to beg for mercy, and even threatened to wake up his son, which made Wen Xin stop.

However, after the two of them quieted down, Wen Xin frowned and said: "Husband, if the ninth brother and Cai'er want to combine, there is a huge resistance in this, since you already knew that they had correspondence, why don't you just intercept their correspondence, the two have no contact, isn't there no such thing as now?" ”

Hearing Wen Xin's question, Li Su smiled bitterly. When Cai'er first went to Chang'an, Li Su felt that Li Zhi was a little different from Cai'er, which had aroused his vigilance, and later through Yang Xuan's death, Li Su let Cai'er live with him, thinking that after the distance, the two would slowly lose contact, but they didn't expect them to start writing letters. Originally, Li Su already felt guilty when they were separated, and if he intercepted the two more letters, it would seem that he was too despicable, so in the end, Li Su had to let them develop. And what Li Su didn't expect was that Li Zhi and Cai'er had been writing for five years, and even Li Su was a little shocked at this time, and he couldn't bear to break them up. (To be continued.)
