Chapter 70: Choosing a Concubine
On Wang Xiaojie's house, Wang Xiaojie looked tired, half lying and half leaning.
Wang Shu came in with tea, handed it to Wang Xiaojie and said, "Grandpa, eat tea." ”
"Okay." Wang Xiaojie responded, took the teacup, drank it all, and said with a smile: "Shu'er is still filial piety, always thinking about grandpa, as soon as grandpa comes back, he will serve tea to grandpa." ”
"Grandpa, don't say it, this is what a granddaughter should do." Wang Shuyan smiled, like a pear blossom with rain, and everyone was pitied.
"Shu'er, your boss is not too young, and it is time to find a mother-in-law." Wang Xiaojie raised his eyebrows, a little worried, and said, "As old as you, grandpa has your father." It's time for you to get married, too. ”
"Don't marry." Wang Shu categorically refused.
"You child, how can you not marry." Wang Xiaojie said kindly.
"Grandpa, you work too hard in military affairs, can't you take care of your body and bones?" Wang Shu was a little dissatisfied.
"I can't help it." Wang Xiaojie shook his head in distress and said, "After recruiting so many troops, you have to train, right?" Grandpa is still good, Master Zhang is just a hard worker, busy all day, even the time to eat is difficult to squeeze out. Even if it's eating, he has to deal with official business while eating. ”
"Grandpa, isn't it harder to do that?" Wang Shu stared at the boss with a pair of good-looking pretty eyes, staring at Wang Xiaojie.
"yes." Wang Xiaojie nodded heavily and said, "If you want to break the big food, how can it be so easy." Not to mention anything else, there are so many preparations that it makes people tired. As soon as the war starts, there will be more of this. ”
Speaking of this, something suddenly came to mind. asked, "Shu'er." Do you have nothing to do and ask what your majesty is doing? ”
Wang Shu'er blushed. A little embarrassed: "People just ask casually." ”
"Is it really just asking?" Wang Xiaojie realized.
"Of course." Wang Shu nodded heavily.
"That's good, that's good." A smile flashed in Wang Xiaojie's eyes, his eyes rolled, and he said, "I thought Shu'er was the one who liked His Majesty." It's good if you don't have it Your Majesty is going to choose a concubine. ”
"What? Majesty wants to choose a concubine? Wang Shu's face was frightened, and he was even more desperate.
"yes." Wang Xiaojie saw it in his eyes, and a touch of banter flashed in his eyes, and said: "Your Majesty is not young, and it is time to choose a concubine." It's time to get married. ”
Li Longji is seventeen years old, and he can already be a father in the Tang Dynasty, and it is normal to choose a concubine.
"How can he choose a concubine?" Wang Shu was in a hurry, and tears almost rolled down.
"Shu'er, what you said is not right. How could His Majesty not choose a concubine? Wang Xiaojie's smile deepened.
He ......" Wang Shu'er was angry, covered her face, and ran away.
"Huh." Wang Xiaojie looked at Wang Shu'er's back, let out a burst of laughter, stroked his beard, and said, "This girl." It turns out that I like it is 陛xià. Well, I have to give this to Yucheng as a grandfather. ”

Wu Zetian's dormitory. Wu Zetian, with the support of the two brothers Li Xian and Li Dan, was taking a walk in the garden.
Today's Wu Zetian is even worse, his body is not as good as before, and he walks tremblingly.
"Grandmother, Wang Dashuai asks to see you." Li Chongrun came in to report.
"Wang Xiaojie? What is he going to do? Call him in. Although Wu Zetian was a little puzzled, he still respected Wang Xiaojie and immediately asked him to come in.
Li Chongrun responded and hurriedly went to lead people.
"What do you say, what did Wang Xiaojie do when he came?" Wu Zetian asked the two brothers, Li Dan and Li Xian.
"Mother, how do we know this." Li Dan and Li Xian said busily.
"I guess he wants to talk to me. Well, Wang Xiaojie is straightforward, and he is getting older, so it's okay to walk around more, talk, and talk about what happened when he was young. Wu Zetian thought for a while.
Wu Zetian is not young, and he is older than Wang Xiaojie. In this old age, if Wang Xiaojie asked someone she respected to talk to her and chat, it would be a great pleasure.
While talking, Li Chongrun brought Wang Xiaojie in.
"I've seen the Holy Queen! I've seen the Emperor! I have seen the King of Luling. Wang Xiaojie greeted them one by one.
"Excuse me." Wu Zetian waved his hand, sat down in the pavilion, and beckoned Li Chongrun to say, "Serve tea to Wang Xiaojie." ”
Li Chongrun responded, went to make arrangements, and it didn't take long for someone to bring tea.
"Sit down, too." Wu Zetian said to the two brothers.
The two brothers answered and sat down.
"Wang Xiaojie, you can come to me, talk, talk about family life, I am very happy." Wu Zetian had a smile on his face.
Although many of the ministers could talk to her, they were all too busy, and no one came to her to talk. Wang Xiaojie can come, Wu Zetian is really happy.
"Ugh." Wang Xiaojie made a grinding sound in his mouth, where is this, he came here for something, but it is not commonplace.
"Thanks to the Holy Queen, Wang Xiaojie will definitely come and walk around more in the future." Wang Xiaojie said busily.
"Good, good." Wu Zetian was very satisfied with his promise.
"Holy queen, before talking about common things, the old minister has to talk about the holy queen, and the mistakes of the emperor." Wang Xiaojie has a straightforward personality and goes straight to the point.
"Mistakes? Where does this begin? Wu Zetian and Li Dan were stunned and asked puzzled.
These two women did not ask about state affairs again, let alone interfere, and let Li Longji play, what is the mistake of this?
"Holy Queen, Emperor Taishang, you are really, and you don't care too much about Your Majesty." Wang Xiaojie complained about Li Longji and complained about the two of them.
"What do you mean by that?" Wu Zetian was completely confused, and said: "San Lang is very shrewd, and I am also relieved to merge the country into his hands, and I am extremely relieved." ”
Although Li Longji forced Wu Zetian to abdicate, Wu Zetian still had a special appreciation for Li Longji, thinking that he could be better than the blue, and he was absolutely relieved to put the country in his hands.
"Yes. San Lang is much stronger than me, and he will definitely be able to lead Datang to defeat the Great Food. Li Dan also agrees with this statement.
"For the country, His Majesty will naturally take care of it." Wang Xiaojie rolled his eyes a little angrily, and said, "But your majesty has nothing else to do except for the country?" ”
"What else is going on with him?" Li Xian was also confused.
In addition to governing the country, the emperor ruled the country. What else could be done?
"Holy Queen. The Emperor. King Luling, you don't want to think about it, Your Majesty is not too young, and it is time to get married, if you are an elder, you will not give Zhang Luo Zhang Luo? Wang Xiaojie had to point it out.
"Smack!" Wu Zetian's right hand slapped heavily on his forehead, and his face was abrupt, and he said, "Yes." Why did we ignore this? ”
"Saburo is seventeen years old. It's almost eighteen, and it's long overdue to talk about family affairs. Li Dan also patted his forehead and said, "It's just that a few years ago, he was out on a campaign, and this matter has not been carried out." Now, it's time to book a family affair for Saburo. ”
"Eighth child, you are a father, and you are really very close." Li Xian was dissatisfied with Li Dan and said, "Choose a concubine directly." Isn't that enough? ”
"Choosing a concubine?" Li Dan was stunned for a moment, and then agreed. "Yes! Right! Right! San Lang is the emperor, of course he has to choose a concubine. ”
"It's really time for us to help Saburo handle this." Wu Zetian nodded heavily and said, "We are elders, we have to call the shots in this matter, but we can't help him." Well, I have to let this kid Saburo work hard and give me a bunch of great-grandchildren. ”
As he spoke, Wu Zetian was full of smiles and said, "I can make my great-grandson happy, and I will have something to do." ”
As Li Longji's grandmother, can she not want to hold her great-grandson? Regarding the matter of choosing a concubine, Wu Zetian is particularly active.
"Good, good. I can also be a grandfather, and I can also make grandchildren happy. Li Dan couldn't close his mouth with a smile.
Li Dan attaches great importance to family affection and is a very good father, if Li Longji has children, he will naturally be very happy.
"Holy Queen, Emperor Taishang, what do you say about my sister-in-law?" Wang Xiaojie's eyes widened, staring at Wu Zetian and Li Dan, for fear that they would veto.
"Wang Shu? Is it the clever Wang Shu who danced with Shouchang? Wu Zetian asked.
"Holy Queen, do you remember my sister-in-law?" Wang Xiaojie was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed.
It has been many years since Wang Shu danced with Princess Shouchang, and Wu Zetian still remembered her, Wang Xiaojie couldn't help but like it.
"Of course I do." Wu Zetian nodded heavily and said, "This kid is good." If she dances well, has spirituality, and has a good temperament, count her in. ”
"Thank you! Thank you! Wu Zetian's clap made Wang Xiaojie so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.
"Come, let's make a good calculation, how to choose a concubine for San Lang." With a kind smile on Wu Zetian's face, he discussed with Li Dan and Li Xian.

In the Daming Palace, Li Longji was on the desk to deal with official business, with a focused expression.
At this moment, Gao Lishi came in and replaced Li Longji with hot tea.
"Colliers, come, give me a squeeze on the shoulder." Li Longji stood up, stretched his waist, and said with emotion: "It is said that it is good to be an emperor, you can judge life and death, and hold people's future." However, a few people know that being an emperor is so hard. I'm in the prime of life, and I'm tired like this, if I change people, I won't die of exhaustion? ”
"Your Majesty, that's not necessarily." Gaolis, who has always been the only one who is the first to look forward to the horse, does not agree.
Li Longji didn't expect Gao Lishi to object, so he couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”
"Your Majesty, you work hard because you are diligent in official business, dedicated to the world, and dedicated to handling state affairs." Gao Lishi was a little distressed, and said: "If those faint kings only care about pleasure, they don't care about the lives of the people." They, being the emperor is enjoyment, the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, the singing and dancing, and countless beauties. Just like Emperor Yang of the previous dynasty. ”
Whether being an emperor is a supreme pleasure or a great struggle depends on how to be the law.
If you are dedicated to the public and concentrate on governing the country, it will be really hard.
If you just care about pleasure, it is really supreme fun, such as Emperor Yang of Sui and others.
"It makes sense." Li Longji nodded, shook his head again, and said, "Your words are all right." ”
"Please give me advice." Colliers said busily.
Colliers' words will be recognized by many people, Li Longji both agrees and disagrees, and he is really a little curious.
"Delicious food and countless beauties, although it is a pleasure, it is not the greatest pleasure of being an emperor." Li Longji explained, "The greatest joy of being an emperor is to be able to accomplish a meritorious deed!" To be able to surpass the sages, to go down in history, and to be praised by future generations is the real joy of an emperor! (To be continued......)
