Li Yue's gaze looked at her husband hesitantly.

Zhang Yang stood up and poured the tea into his cup.

The sound of tea entering the bowl can be heard clearly.

Li Yue calmed down and said, "It's not early, rest early." ”

Zhang Yang sighed, now he couldn't hear the snoring of the bears at home, and the family had built a warmer bear den for them.

At night, I fell asleep listening to the sound of the wind and snow outside the house.

This year's winter moon was still cold, and my aunt put a lot of music on the table early in the morning.

Zhang Yang looked at it one by one, and the recital of the official department said a person named Pei Yan.

After the imperial examination this year, many young people entered the imperial court, and this young man was assigned to Taifu Temple.

Most of this matter was arranged by Cen Wenwen.

Zhang Yang was eating his morning meal with a solemn face.

Zhang Xin'an deliberately wore a new dress and new boots, "Daddy, the child is going to find a house and go to class." ”

"Well, remember to bow more."

"The child understands."

Aunt Yang prepared the carriage and took the little marquis to Chang'an City.

Zhang Yang put down this piece with a displeased expression, and there was one more person in this Taifu Temple inexplicably, so he felt uncomfortable.

Originally, I thought it was good to do things alone, at least I could arrange it freely.

The weather after the heavy snow was rarely sunny, Li Yue took out all the things at home to dry, she looked at the books covered in distress at the door of the house, "So many books will take many days." ”

As she spoke, she put down a pile of clutter.

Zhang Yang noticed a seal letter and said with a smile: "I almost forgot, our son is the Marquis of Guanxi, who is higher than my county marquis." ”

Li Yue put these small objects neatly, sat down and said: "Speaking of which, the child's title was still agreed to by the father and the emperor half-pushed, and there is no food, let alone a fief. ”

Zhang Yang said discouragedly: "This child is still young, let's talk about this later." ”

Today is the first day that Zhang Xin'an came to listen to the teacher's lecture, and Aunt Yang took him into the mansion of Fang Xiang's family, and she stood outside the study.

Zhang Xin'an walked into this dim study, and as soon as he walked in, he smelled a strong smell of ink.

I saw that Fang Xiang was sitting by the oil lamp, looking at the pieces of music, and there was a brazier on the side.

It's not like Lishan's home, where the sun is always good, and since the glass windows are installed, the house is brighter.

Seeing that Fang Xiang didn't look up at himself, Zhang Xin'an sat down silently.

Finally, Fang Xuanling looked up and saw the child, and said with a smile: "How long have you been here?" ”

Zhang Xin'an saluted and said, "The disciple has just arrived. ”

Fang Xuanling stood up, took down a few books from the bookshelf on the side, and said in a low voice: "You should look at these books first." ”

"Okay."

Zhang Xin'an nodded, watched him sit down again, and then approved the recital.

The study was very cold and uncomfortable to sit in, Zhang Xin'an lit the oil lamp on the side and began to read, these books were written with many annotations about the revision of national history.

While looking at the frowns on the little face, I can't understand it, it's so jerky!

After sitting for a long time, I feel that it is even colder here, and my hands and feet are cold.

Zhang Xin'an saw that the brazier on the side was about to go out, so he hurriedly added some charcoal and opened the window on the side, so that the sunlight could shine into the study.

After finishing all this, he simply sat outside the study, sitting in the sun and reading, so that he was much more comfortable.

After a while, Fang Xuanling's voice came from inside the house, "How do you see it?" ”

When Zhang Xin'an heard this, he got up and walked into the house again, and replied, "The disciple can't understand it." ”

"Can't understand?"

"Well, I just can't read it."

Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and pondered for a long time, "That's right, you can't understand such a jerky student at your age, and the old man has not prepared a book for children to learn, so he will order someone to bring a few volumes another day." ”

"Thank you, teacher."

Looking at the sunset outside the window, Fang Xuanling said again: "That's it, you go back first." ”

"The disciple retired."

On the way back to Lishan, Zhang Xin'an sat on the wheel with a sullen face, and Aunt Yang drove the horse and asked, "Little Marquis, are you unhappy?" ”

"Well, I'm thinking about how many words did Fang Xiang say on this day, five sentences? Six sentences? ”

Aunt Yang said again: "Fang Xiang is a very busy person. ”

Zhang Xin'an sighed, tightened his clothes, and when he returned to Lishan, it was already night.

At home, his younger brother Qiu'er is crying, and his sister is counting him.

Zhang Xin'an sat down tiredly and interrupted her sister's counting, "Sister, Fang Xiang doesn't seem to be willing to teach me." ”

Zhang Qingqing didn't care about his younger brother anymore, handed him over to his aunt to take care of, and asked, "What did Fang Xiang say to you?" ”

He told his sister everything that happened throughout the day, including Fang Xiang who sat in the study for a day and didn't teach any words at all.

Zhang Qingqing said: "How do you think Fang Xiang should teach you?" ”

"My brother doesn't understand what my sister means."

"And after a while, you will go to the Fang Xiang to read every two days according to the agreement, if he is still like this, my sister will personally accompany you to ask for an understanding."

Listening to her sister's words, Zhang Xin'an felt a little better, "My sister is still good to me." ”

Zhang Qingqing was a little worried, and let Fang Xiang be his teacher, this stupid brother will probably have to suffer a lot in the future.

The Tang Dynasty in the seventeenth year of Zhenguan entered the wax moon.

Zhang Yang was looking at a book sent by the Technical Institute, and now there are more and more papers in Chang'an, and there is no shortage of paper in Guanzhong this year.

The emperor had his own paper-making workshop, so he increased his efforts to make paper, a foot of Zhenguan paper only costs ten yuan, the price is not cheap, nor too expensive.

The title of the volume on the scroll is the feasibility report on the control of the Yellow River.

Li Yue put a plate of wheat cakes on the table, "I haven't had lunch yet." ”

Zhang Yang ate wheat cakes and put down the scroll.

"How?"

"It's still almost hot, the theory is enough, but the practice report is still very poor."

Li Yue also ate the wheat cake and nodded: "It tastes really good." ”

Aunt Wang came in a hurry, interrupting the couple's temporary free time, and she said anxiously: "The doctor in the hospital said that the prince has reached the end of his life. ”

Zhang Yang put down the wheat cake in his hand and said in surprise: "How can this be?" ”

Aunt Wang said again: "It's better for the county marquis to go and see it in person." ”

"I'll go."

Zhang Yang simply cleaned up, put on his coat, and hurriedly walked out of the house.

In Lishan at noon, every time the moon is the time when the children here play the most, Zhang Yang hurried his footsteps and passed through their play.

When I came to the hospital, it was winter and the season of high incidence of wind and cold, and there were many people who came to see the doctor.

No one noticed that this young man who hurried by was the Marquis of Lishan County.

Zhang Yang came to a ward and saw the prince lying on the couch.

Cui Zhiyi sighed: "I have been sick for a long time, and now I am terminally ill when I fall, the county marquis, now he is dying, just say what you want to say." ”

Zhang Yang nodded and said, "Thank you." ”

Cui Zhiyi shook his head and sighed, "As a eunuch, he can be regarded as a long-lived eunuch, does this person still have a family?" ”

Zhang Yang shook his head, "He has no relatives." ”

"Hmm."

Cui Zhiyi nodded and led his healers out of the ward and closed the door.

Zhang Yang looked at the old man and didn't know what to say.

After a long time, the prince slowly opened his eyes, turned his head to look, and called out in a low voice, "County Marquis." ”

Zhang Yang said: "You have worked hard in this life. ”

Wang Gonggong turned his head to look at the roof of the ward, and said in a low voice: "This year in Lishan is the happiest year for the old man, thank you county marquis." ”

Zhang Yang looked out the window and said, "Don't say it, the more you talk about it, the more uncomfortable it becomes." ”

"The county marquis is blaming the old slave for not listening to the advice and leaving His Majesty as soon as possible."

Zhang Yang put his hands behind his back and stood straight, "That's your insistence, if you think this is a good ending, it's a good ending." ”

The prince coughed again, "Actually, since the Qizhou Rebellion, Your Majesty has become more and more suspicious. ”

"Well, he hasn't been to Lishan for three years."

"Actually, two months ago, the old slave heard that His Majesty was sick."

"I guessed it."

"Hehehe......"

The old man's laughter was not good, and it was even a little infiltrating.

It was the first time he had ever heard him laugh.

But it was already dying.

Zhang Yang said again: "Princess, do you have any wishes?" ”

He said slowly: "Most of Your Majesty's people are on the road, and they will bury the old man in Zhaoling, which is enough." ”

"Is that all?"

Wang Gonggong nodded and said: "In the past, the old slave felt that he didn't have anything to worry about, but now he has, I hope that Lishan can always be quiet and rich, and I can't let go of it in my heart." ”

His words stopped.

Zhang Yang handed over a bowl of hot tea and was pushed away by him.

The prince shook his head and said: "The old slave is not thirsty, so I will tell the county marquis today that His Majesty is indeed sick, and only a few people know about it, including the old slave, and many princes do not know, only the queen, the old slave, Lu Zhaolin and some inner servants." ”

"As for His Majesty's condition, the old slave doesn't know, and he can only know from a few words that he has been ill for a long time, that's all, the old slave really doesn't want to see that one day in the future, His Majesty and Lishan will meet each other, then this world ...... It's really a catastrophe. ”

Zhang Yang's eyes looked at the old man, he smiled kindly, and finally closed his eyes.

The setting sun fell into this ward, Zhang Yang sat on a chair, stroked his forehead in distress, and another old man left Lishan.

Not long after, Li Junxian came with people, and they took away the prince.

Zhang Yang calmly watched as the people took him away, and walked back to Lishan with a solemn expression.

At least he has been living his own life in Lishan for more than a year.

The prince is gone, and he remains faithful to His Majesty until his death.

There is also Zheng Gong, who is always unwilling to retreat from the court until he dies.

This is always the case with people in this age......

Zhang Yang went to the house where the prince lived, cleaned up his house, and the place where he lived was very simple, with only some necessary furniture and no superfluous things.

Pack up some clothes, light a fire, and take it as an end to the friendship that has been going on for so many years.

When I got back to the mountains, I wasn't in a good mood.

Li Yue arranged for the children to leave on their own after dinner, leaving the couple in the house, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

"The prince is gone."

"I heard what my aunt said, my father will give his old man a due future."

Zhang Yang said in a low voice: "This time, I heard from the prince that your father is indeed sick, I think this time the Imperial Medical Department sent someone to Tianshan to ask for medicine, most likely to be prepared if the condition deteriorates in the future." ”

Li Yue looked nervous, "Do you know what the illness is?" ”

"Don't know?"

"I'm going to write to the queen mother."

Zhang Yang took her hand and shook his head gently.

Li Yue looked at her husband in confusion, and what she saw in her eyes was vigilance, and she wondered, "What's wrong?" ”

"You can't ask, you have to pretend you don't know."

Li Yue sat down again, thinking about the cause and effect of the incident, her brows were tightly locked, her eyes were closed, and her eyelashes were a little beating because of nervousness.

Thinking of what I was going to do just now, I was a little scared at the moment.

Seeing her sitting in the chair, she was a little confused.

Zhang Yang walked up to her, squatted down, grabbed her hand, and looked up at her, "The emperor's physical condition is the most strict thing, and the prince told me about this before he died, your father's suspicion is enough." ”

Li Yue said in a low voice: "Just because he is the emperor, he can even be suspicious of his own children. ”

Zhang Yang patted her hand, "It's cruel." ”

"Not cruelty." Li Yue shook his head and said, "Compared to what I experienced when I was a child, this point in front of me is nothing. ”

Zhang Yang smiled with relief, "Yes, no matter how difficult it was before, you have come over it, but in fact, your heart is already very strong." ”

She also laughed and said in a low voice: "There are no weak people in our family. ”

Zhang Yang got up and sat aside, whispering about the next arrangements.

Outside the house, Zhang Qingqing and her two younger brothers were sitting by the stove and were grilling mutton skewers to eat, her eyes looked at the study from time to time, and she could see the figure of her father and mother sitting opposite each other under the light.

"Sister, what did Daddy say?"

Zhang Qingqing shook his head, "I can't hear clearly, it must be a very important thing." ”

In the study, Li Yue held his temple with one hand and looked at the drawings in front of him, "In the past, Lishan was built into an industrial cluster, but now it is good, the entire Guanzhong has become an industrial cluster." ”

"Well, that's all we can do if we want to grow stronger."

Li Yue said in a low voice: "It seems that the DPRK is grasping the production end, but in fact, the control is very poor, as long as we cut off the production end, the entire Guanzhong economy will be shut down immediately." ”

Zhang Yang walked back and forth in the study, "If the economy in Guanzhong is shut down, what will the emperor do?" ”

"He has nothing to do but order the counties to resume production."

Li Yue was still a little hesitant, "Can we achieve such a big appeal?" ”

Zhang Yang bowed his head and said, "I'll do this thing." ”

Li Yue put down the pen in his hand and said in a low voice: "During this time, Lishan will hurry up to accumulate goods, and I will arrange it with Xiaohui and Xiaowu." ”

Zhang Yang walked to the door, opened the door, and the three children ran in, each holding a large string of mutton in their hands, and ate beautifully.

"Dad, what did you just say with your mother in the study?"

The three children were very conscious, each put the footbasin and sat in a row to wash their feet.

Zhang Yang also washed his feet, sat in front of the three children and said, "Our family must always prepare for the worst and prepare for the worst." ”
