In the thirteenth year of Zhenguan (639), there were not many major events in the court, but there were major events that had nothing to do with me, and I obediently became my wife Wu and my son's nanny. Because of my relationship with Li Shimin, Concubine Yang recruited me into the palace when she had nothing to do, and as long as there is a gathering of noble ladies in the palace, she will definitely pull me in. I can politely refuse the meeting of a noblewoman, but I cannot refuse the meeting in the palace. I like Mrs. Fang, Mrs. Wei, and Mrs. Cheng very much, but I don't dare to intersect with them, I think I can chat with Li Shimin because I won't get involved in these things at all. I'm an unrelated person, and those ladies don't necessarily really want to know anything from me, but less interaction should be more important to Li Shimin's heart. In July, when I sent my son back to the palace, I asked Li Shimin for leave.
"Leave?" Li Shimin, Li Zhi, his son, Concubine Xue and Mei Niang are all sitting. Li Shimin smiled a little when he heard me ask for leave.
"Yes, it's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, the concubine and her husband have made an appointment, and they have to go back to accompany him at this time of year, please ask Your Majesty for permission." I replied earnestly.
"How long will it take?" The son was not happy and asked with a pout.
"About two months!"
"No, what should I do?" Li Shimin didn't think about it, and immediately shook his head.
"If the princess doesn't give up, she can go back with the concubine, the concubine has a small manor in Wenshui, and this is the time when the agricultural products are produced, and the princess is just playing." I said slowly, Li Shimin wouldn't really agree anyway.
"Good! Sister Qiang'er said that there is a good ...... in the village" The son jumped up immediately, but looking at Li Shimin's black face, she obediently snuggled into Li Shimin's arms, "Dad, let the son go!" You don't want your son to become industrious and indistinguishable, right? ”
"Your Majesty, the concubine has a word." Concubine Xue cleared her throat and said aloud.
"Say it!" Li Shimin waved his hand helplessly, and from his expression, I thought he should already know what Concubine Xue wanted to say.
"What the princess said just now, the concubine also felt something, His Royal Highness the King of Jin is close to adulthood, and the concubine also wants His Royal Highness the King of Jin to find a farm to understand the four seasons and five grains."
"Okay, I know, you just want to leave me alone in the palace and run out to play, right?" He looked at me wickedly.
"It has nothing to do with the concubine, the concubine doesn't know." I jumped out of the way immediately, I was telling the truth, and I had to be poor if I was brought back to this group.
He looked at me, thought for a moment and nodded, believing my words, and was about to say it. Someone asked to come in outside, and Concubine Xue and I immediately got up and prepared to leave. When I got up, Concubine Xue smiled at me, and I couldn't help but smile in return, they are all masters who are afraid of death.
"Cut, the two are the same, come on, I'm not afraid that you will go out and tell me nonsense, sit down!" Li Shimin roared, and Concubine Xue and I had to sit down, but I could see that she was a little uneasy. What upsets her?
It was Chu Suiliang who came in, I have seen it a few times from afar, I don't like this person very much, but I can't tell why I don't like it, maybe it's because he and the eldest grandson Wuji were in cahoots in history.
"What's the matter with Aiqing?" Li Shimin was a little annoyed.
"This ......" Chu Suiliang glanced at us, lowered his head, and Concubine Xue and I had to stand up again. Li Shimin patted the table.
"What are you doing standing up again? Are you not tired, but are you tired? He didn't say Chu Suiliang, but it made him more uncomfortable than he said. He lay on the ground and didn't dare to make a sound, Li Shimin looked at him, "What are you going to say?" ”
"Minister......" He was startled, and suddenly forgot what he was going to say, Li Shimin was even more annoyed, and his son gently touched his father's beard, and Li Shimin eased up. Chu Suiliang finally remembered what he was going to say.
"Your Majesty, Zhongshu Ling Fang Qiao dared to disobey the holy order, and received the holy grace of His Majesty......" His mouth was like a river, and four words and four words came out, I listened quietly, and began to understand why I didn't like him, because he was a villain.
Fang Qiao is the famous Fang Xuanling, and I like the man who is afraid of his wife, so I easily broke into the pile I didn't like because of the man who beat the old man behind his back. Looking at Li Shimin's face, he didn't like it, and then looked at Li Zhixiao Zhengtai, he didn't seem to listen. Mei Niang listened very carefully, and looked at me from time to time to see what I was doing? I didn't dare to shake my head, because it was easy to cause misunderstanding, and then I looked at the woman who was afraid of death as much as I was, and it turned out that her face was very bad and her teeth were clenched? What did this one say? Make this bunch of such expressions?
Chu Suiliang finally finished speaking, I didn't notice what he said because I paid attention to everyone's reactions. Li Shimin didn't say anything, only said that he knew, so he let Chu Suiliang go down. Li Shimin glanced at me, I was a little dazed, so I had to smile in return, he let out a long sigh, looked at his son and nodded: "Go!" It's fun, I don't want to raise a few princes and princesses who are not diligent and have no grains. Mei Niang, you go too! ”
Thank you, I went out of the palace with Concubine Xue, she glanced at me and smiled: "Madam Huiye!" After saying that, I was stunned for a moment, looked at Mei Niang, she also smiled at me, and followed. Forget it, there's always someone telling me what's going on.
I bowed my head and prepared to leave the palace, but I was chased out by the palace people again, so I had to go to find our Emperor of the Tang Dynasty in the small garden. He sat alone on the rockery in a daze, and I had to stand quietly beside him.
"Did you hear that?"
"No, I didn't pay attention to it, and I didn't want to hear it." I'll be honest.
"Pretending to be stupid again?"
"The concubine is telling the truth, the court affairs are not what the concubine should listen to and ask, and it is useless to listen to it."
"He said that Fang Qiao obviously accepted my order to be the prince's young master, but he didn't enter the palace after lingering in front of the prince's mansion for a long time."
I was stunned for a moment, I have heard this story, there are two sayings in later generations, one says that Fang Xiang is humble and does not dare to take the prince as a teacher; The other theory is much more cruel, saying that he is Li Tai's behind-the-scenes military advisor and the biggest backstage of the Wei Palace. At this time, the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang were both members of the prince's faction.
"Why don't you speak?"
"I don't know what to say." I paused, a little bitter. Cheng Qian's impression on me that day was very good, although he didn't have much intersection with me these days, but the son said that the eldest brother also paid attention to her these days, and if there was something delicious and fun, he would think of sending someone to send her a copy. The prime minister did not accept the order and made it clear that the prince's reputation crisis began to kick off, and this person seemed to have made it clear to Li Shimin that he did not support the prince Chengqian. Fang Xuanling has been a minister for more than ten years, and is Li Shimin's right-hand man, and more importantly, the career of a minister for more than ten years is from his disciple to 23 out of 10 Chinese officials.
"What would the Queen think?" Li Shimin said sadly.
When Shi Tong handed over Liniang to the concubine, the concubine was helpless. Mei Niang refused to admit that Li Niang was her sister, and the concubine dismissed Li Niang's nurse, ate and slept with the three of them every day, hugged Li Niang, and Mei Niang took a bath together. Make them believe that they are sisters. ”
"Madame is saying that I can't be a father?"
"The concubine doesn't dare." I sighed softly, and Li Shimin also let out a long sigh, smiled bitterly, and looked at the sky.
"Now that they have opened a government and built a mansion, I am afraid that it will be difficult for them to pick up the brotherhood again, and it is also a good thing to take the pheasant slave away at this time."
I looked at his back, conflicted in my heart, to remind him that the best way at this time is to send Li Tai to the fiefdom, so that the people of the Wei king's faction understand that the crown prince is untakable? In the end, I held back, and what I said meant that I was also involved, and at this time Li Shimin told me, but I just wanted to talk to someone who would not get involved in the dispute.
