Datang: Only by resisting the decree can we become stronger

"It is precisely because of this that Young Master Changsun became even more drunk."

Chapter 497 An Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Acting Like a Little Daughter-in-law

Almost overnight, the streets and alleys of the entire Chang'an City, and even the palace.

Almost everyone knew about the eldest grandson's drunkenness.

The reason why it became so hot was because of the two lines of poems that Li Qiu gave Changsun Chong.

In the Furong Restaurant and Wuming Restaurant, the business was so hot that it was full.

The ranking numbers are all listed in the Shangyuan Festival.

The guests who were lucky enough to snatch a seat all laughed and called Xiao Er to serve the wine.

"Since Prince Li Qiu has written new poems in Furong Garden, we must also come to Furong Restaurant to meet the scene."

"Xiao Er, good wine and good food, bring them all up."

"Let's have a drink today and get drunk today!"

In Pingkangfang in Chang'an City (the place where brothels gather in Chang'an City).

Countless girls greeted the guests while playing music.

"Guest officer, Xiaoyao Gong Li Qiu has a new poem recently."

"If you have wine today, you will be drunk today, and you will be sad tomorrow."

"You don't have to be too depressed, let's have a few drinks."

"Those troubles and sorrows are also forgotten..."

……

In the palace, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun came to visit Youle again.

But just this night, Youle's eyes were already red and swollen from crying.

Seeing this, the two of them, as parents, naturally felt distressed and uncomfortable in every possible way.

But no matter how much you persuade, it is of no use.

In desperation, Empress Changsun had no choice but to order Princess Yunzhong to enter the palace urgently and bring Xiao Hei with her.

Come and talk with Youle, talk about heart to heart.

When leaving the happy place, Empress Changsun couldn't help sighing.

"Oh, I heard yesterday that Chang Sun Chong's child also ran into the Furong Garden and got very drunk."

"These two children are really pitiful!"

Li Shimin also sighed lightly at this moment.

"I've also heard about Chang Sun Chong getting drunk."

"Didn't Li Qiu also send him two poems, saying that if you have wine today, you will be drunk today, and worry about tomorrow?"

"Now, these two poems have spread throughout Chang'an."

"Hmph, this time, I'm afraid I will also follow his two lines of poems, and they will be included in the history books together!"

"The princess I love the most is forced to go out of the country and marry into a Turk, causing the eldest Sun Chong, who was originally engaged to the princess, to die drunk all day long."

"I can guess how they want to write!"

"Since Dazhen was born until now, when have you been persecuted like this?"

"This emperor really makes me more and more useless!"

……

On the other side, in the Furong Garden, after receiving the message from Empress Changsun, A Ke naturally brought Xiao Hei into the palace immediately.

As soon as she saw A Ke and Xiao Hei coming, Princess Youle threw herself on A Ke.

howling.

About Youle, A Ke had already heard from Wu Jue and Luo Kexin yesterday.

But this kind of thing, A Ke, who has always seldom communicated with others, didn't know what to say.

You can only be a listener.

Youle, on the other hand, was crying and wiping away tears while hugging Xiao Hei.

He kept talking about his grievances.

While talking, Princess Youle may feel tired from crying, so she raised her head and looked at A Ke with red and swollen eyes.

"Sister Yunzhong, if it were you, what would you do?"

"Youle really doesn't want to marry a Turkic man, marry that Yi Shiyi man..."

Listening to Youle's question, A Ke also frowned and let out a soft breath.

It seems that in her world, there is no such problem.

"If it were me..."

"Then I'll climb out the back window while no one's looking, and climb up the ridge."

"Sneak along the roof all the way to the palace wall and escape from the palace."

"Then pretend again and sneak out of Chang'an City."

"Once we leave Chang'an City, everything will be easy to handle."

"You can go to Zhongnan Mountain, cross the Qinling Mountains, and travel across the desert..."

Before she finished speaking, Youle hugged Xiaobai again and began to cry.

In the final analysis, it seems that I am still useless and a waste.

……

Because of such a small episode as Yi Shiyi Nan, the date that Li Shimin led the important officials in the court and the princes to meet the Supreme Emperor this year was postponed by a few days compared to previous years.

This New Year's Eve this year may be due to his rapid deterioration.

The overlord Li Yuan's mentality towards Li Shimin and many princes has also changed too much.

Regarding the bowing down of Li Chengqian, Li Tai, Li Ke and other princes, the Supreme Emperor smiled and nodded kindly.

Let them flatten.

This kind of change is beyond the expectations of too many people.

Speaking of Wu Wang Li Ke, there is one more thing to mention here.

Ever since Xiao Yu was promoted and became prime minister again.

He took the opportunity to intercede for Li Ke several times.

In the end, Li Shimin couldn't bear it, so he ordered him to return from the fiefdom to live in Chang'an City.

There is no need to go to Zhiguan again.

So this year's New Year's Day, Li Ke is in a particularly good mood.

The gift given to the Supreme Emperor is also the most precious and thoughtful.

It caused the Supreme Emperor to praise him a few more words.

In Da'an Palace this year, the Supreme Emperor is not like in previous years.

As soon as they met each other, they directly played chess with the warrior Xun, Li Qiu and others, intentionally leaving Li Shimin and Empress Changsun cold.

Instead, he looked at his son quietly, and asked with rare concern: "Why is your face so ugly?"

"It's even worse than me, a dying person."

Listening to the Supreme Emperor's question, and seeing the obviously aging face of the Supreme Emperor, Li Shimin couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

"Father, you are in good health, so you will naturally live a long life."

"How can you say these ominous words?"

At this time, the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan snorted softly as if mocking himself, "You know your destiny at the age of 50."

"Now I have passed a lot more than the year of knowing my destiny."

"To die is to die."

"No matter how much you talk about longevity and heaven, it's just a lie to fool people, and even you won't believe it."

"On the contrary, you, as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, even won the battle, and managed to pinch Turk's neck once in your own hands."

"In the end, I was threatened by a little Turkic baby Khan like a resentful little daughter-in-law."

Chapter 498 What should I do?

Hearing the contempt and ridicule of the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan, Li Shimin was naturally dissatisfied in his heart.

"Father, this Hu Han has been fighting for hundreds of years."

"Especially in recent years, the people of our Tang Dynasty have suffered from wars and the pain of being separated from each other."

"It's rare to have such an opportunity right now, how can I stop the general trend of history because I don't want to part with my daughter."

"My daughter suffers a little bit, but it can benefit countless people on both sides of Hu and Han."

"It can make all the people in the world a blessing."

"It's worth it, too."

Hearing this, the Supreme Emperor shook his head slightly and sighed softly.

"Since you have made such a decision, why are you so unbearable?"

"Sometimes, it's good for a monarch to care about his reputation."

"It can make him not dare to act recklessly, so he can be somewhat restrained, he can listen to the advice of the officials, and become more virtuous."

"But sometimes, it's easy to get tired of fame."

"In this regard, I think that Li Qiu's thick-skinned approach of not caring about anything is quite good."

"Since I mentioned this, there is one more thing I want to tell you."

"Li Qiu is brave and resourceful. He has a real passion for this country and the people of Tang Dynasty."

"Although I can't do anything, I'm afraid I won't live for long."

"But if you want to listen to the slander and kill him unjustly, I won't agree."

"Don't forget, the country you are sitting on now, as well as the lives of many people in Chang'an City, were all saved by that child."

"Such a good piece of material, once you miss it, it may be difficult to find it in a thousand years!"

After finishing speaking, the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan got up slowly, shook his sleeves, and went to chat and play chess with other courtiers.

……

As time passed day by day, Princess Youle's originally lovely and plump face became visibly thinner.

I eat less and less every day.

If this continues, I'm afraid she will fall ill before she gets married.

Faced with the consolation from the eldest grandson, Youle burst into tears.

"Since the queen mother and the emperor don't want to be happy, then let Youle go on like this, just die."

"Even if the child dies, he still doesn't want to leave Chang'an, leave the side of the emperor father and the queen mother."

"If you die now, Youle's soul can still stay in the palace, and continue to guard the side of the father and mother."

"But if you wait beyond the Great Wall, on the vast grassland, youle may not even have a soul left."

Seeing her most beloved daughter like this, Empress Changsun also had red eye circles, with a helpless expression on her face.

She could only console her well, saying that marrying a Turkic Khan and getting married was not as bad as she imagined.
