prosperous Tang Dynasty

"why are you laughing?"

"It's nothing." Yang Qihan suppressed a smile, sat next to Li Si, and joked: "Qingluan is really not frank enough. Before they came back, you were restless. When they come back safely, you don't want to go there." gone."

"You..." Li Si pursed his lips and didn't fall into Yang Qihan's tricks, but changed his words, "You just said that Xian'er and Dan'er went to Aye's place, and there is nothing to worry about if Aye is there. What."

"So, I was too worried." After hearing this, Yang Qihan praised Li Si's EQ in his heart. Although Li Xian and Li Dan are good at riding and shooting, they haven't sent anyone to report it until now. Pingan certainly didn't do anything brave, maybe he is crying while pulling Li Zhi's sleeve, and he must be ashamed to pass by at this time.

It's just that Yang Qihan knew that the situation in Li Zhi's tent was not much different from what she imagined.

"I want you to practice your courage, I didn't tell you to cry here!" Li Zhi looked at the two sons standing there with tears in their eyes, and felt depressed for a while, his own Qingluan was more courageous than these two boys.But these two are also his own sons, and in the end they softened their tone and told them not to cry, but to go back and have a good rest.

"Aye is right to reprimand you, my boy will leave first." Li Xian and Li Dan saluted and exited from Li Zhi's tent.Li Xian and Li Dan first went back to their tents to change their clothes, wiped their faces, and made an appointment with each other before going to find Li Si together.

"Princess Qi, son-in-law, the two princes are outside."

"Let them come in." Li Si and Yang Qihan are playing chess at this moment, and at the beginning, Mei Lan ordered them to go down and not want to see any guests. If it wasn't for Li Xian and Li Dan who came, Mei Lan would not Will report in person.

"Xian'er/Dan'er, I met my sister and brother-in-law."

"What's the result of the hunting?" Li Si held the white piece in his hand, but he didn't even look at the faces of the two of them, he just focused his attention on the chessboard.It's just that as soon as these words were spoken, Li Xian and Li Dan's face turned pale, and before he could respond, he heard Li Si continue to say: "Forget it, it's natural that things like this can't be taken care of. It's good that you guys are fine, When the weather gets warmer, let your brother-in-law take you to practice more."

"Xian'er/Dan'er, I made my sister worry."

Yang Qihan took a breath, looked up at the three siblings, and felt helpless.Li Xian and Li Dan went to the mountain ahead of time, plus the snow in the mountain in winter, and encountered wild animals on the road. It was not easy to return safely. Even Li Si wanted to go to the mountain to find them in person, but now that he came back, it was not easy. Put on a posture to reprimand and reprimand the two younger brothers.

"Qingluan, it's good that they come back safely." Yang Qihan also saw that the two men's heads were getting lower and lower, and they didn't have the pride that the prince of the Tang Dynasty should have. Sigh, these two almost grew up under the shadow of their own aunt, and now they add a elder sister, one can imagine how courageous they are to refute the shadow of their childhood.

"If it wasn't for Aye's pressure, you would have brought a team of guards in to look for them yourself, why are you annoyed now." Yang Qihan sighed, looking at the expressions of the two, he knew that he must have been wronged by Li Zhi. If you don't get comfort here, you might feel cold. "I was restless just now, Xian'er and Dan'er are grown children anyway, don't keep them stuck."

"You... why are you tearing me down here." Li Si glared at Yang Qihan angrily, she was determined to let Li Xian and the others hone their skills, "Forget it, what your brother-in-law said is not wrong It makes sense, you were frightened today, go back to your camp and have a good rest, and you will be leaving tomorrow."

"Yes, my brothers leave."

Li Xian and Li Dan left the camp one after the other, and Li Si kept staring at Yang Qihan, asking her for an answer.

"It's not that Qingluan hasn't been in before, the mountains are full of snow, if they didn't come back early and didn't get separated from the guards, I'm afraid they will spend tonight in the mountains." Yang Qihan was also watched by Li Si Feeling terrified, he finally spoke out what was on his mind. "The two of them have never suffered since they were young, and they don't know how to make a fire to keep warm. In this weather and environment, if there is no fire, they will be frozen to death. It is great to be able to come back alive, so don't be angry gone."

"You're right..."

"Come on, continue playing chess."

The dinner was served in his own tent, Li Si and Yang Qihan played two more games before resting.

Departed the next day and did not arrive in Luoyang, the eastern capital, until the 23rd.

Luoyang, the eastern capital, was called by the Sui Dynasty: controlled by three rivers, secured by four fortresses, connected by water and land, and paid tribute.

On the day after moving into Luoyang Palace, Yang Qihan took Qingluan out for shopping, bought some gadgets on the street and gave them to his younger sister to play with when they returned to Chang'an.

"This is what makes Lingyue happiest."

Yang Qihan's face darkened, he never thought that Her Royal Highness, the princess with power over the world, would like candied haws!

This contrast is cute... so cute!

"I like it best and can't keep it for so long." Yang Qihan said while paying, "It will take more than half a month to return to Chang'an from Luoyang, and it will be broken by the time you bring it back. Why don't you wait until you return to Chang'an? Give it to Lingyue."

"Alright." Li Si responded, opened his mouth and took a bite of the candied haws, and left cheerfully.

The two wandered around Beishi for half a day and bought a lot of things.When she returned to Luoyang Palace, Yang Qihan had already hugged her hands for a long time, and when someone finally came to help hold it, she already felt that her hands were so sore that she could hardly lift them up.

Once back in the dormitory, Yang Qihan couldn't help shaking his hands there, trying to make himself more comfortable.

"Lang Jun, what's wrong with you?"

"...It's okay." Yang Qihan turned his head to look at the gift in Mei Lan's hand, and finally chose to remain silent.

"Lang Jun, just now His Majesty sent someone to say that His Majesty's dragon body is not feeling well, so I will let the princess consort eat dinner tonight."

"..." Yang Qihan shook his hands, thinking that Li Zhi's health was really getting worse. "Understood, order people to pass on meals."

"Yes."

Li Zhi pursues frugality and dislikes extravagance, so that most of the money spent in the palace has been reduced.

"Qingluan, I want to invite Dr. Sun to diagnose Aye." Halfway through dinner, Yang Qihan couldn't sit still, "Just now someone came to report that Aye was unwell, so..."

"A Niang has sent people to invite several times, but they were unsuccessful." When Li Si thought about the bodies of her father and brother, she was also worried a lot, but the doctor was unwilling to participate in the affairs of the palace.

Well, fate is like this, and no one can blame it.

It snowed heavily in Luoyang the next day, and Yang Qihan and Li Si stayed in the bedroom for half a month, occasionally walking in the imperial garden of the palace, and they didn't arrive in Chang'an until the end of December.During this period, many things happened in the court, such as the death of Jiang Wang Yun and the death of Guo Wangfeng.The king of Persia, Belus, came to the court, and the queen gave twelve opinions, asking all the princes and officials to study "Lao Tzu". When the father was alive and the mother died, he served filial piety for three years.

The so-called Twelve Articles are also known as the Twelve Things of Jianyan, which are to persuade farmers to mulberry and reduce corvees; to exempt the people in the Sanfu area from corvée; Lu; Du slander; all the princes and princes learn "Lao Tzu"; the father served the mother for three years; Those who have been in high positions for a long time can be promoted.

Suggested twelve things, for the sake of the common people and the middle and lower level officials, fought for interests, and won the support of the common people and most officials.

It's just that when the ministers of the court learned that it was today and today who made this plan, their attitudes turned 360 degrees, and they even made it clear to Li Zhi above the court that the harem should not participate in government affairs.

Every time Li Zhi mentioned this matter, he felt a headache. Although Wu Meiniang mentioned the Twelve Things of Jianyan, it was intended to enrich the country and strengthen the people in the Tang Dynasty, make good use of talents, win over officials, and improve the status of women.Emotionally and rationally, it's all very good.I really don't understand that those ministers in the court just can't get along with their queens, shouldn't the mother of a country care about the success of the Great Tang Dynasty.

"Twelve things to recommend are intended to benefit the community and benefit the people." Li Zhi was dressed in a dragon robe and sat in a high position. As far as he could see, all civil and military officials were kneeling. "The Tang Dynasty has been fighting for many years, and it needs to be cultivated. Twelve things to suggest can make the Tang Dynasty more powerful, the population will increase rapidly, and the people will be happy. Could it be that the ministers just because it is my queen who raised this matter, they are in the courtroom. I framed my queen."

"From now on, the twelve proposals will be implemented, and those who violate the order will be dealt with by the Ministry of Punishment. Retire."

What Li Zhi and Chaotang said naturally spread throughout Chang'an.

Even if they are so stay at home, they have heard about it to some extent.

"Aye has nothing to say to A Niang." Yang Qihan couldn't help joking while playing the chess pieces.

Li Si also played a game of chess, "Where do we start?"

"The harem is not allowed to participate in politics. Wasn't it the Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che, who first created it? He killed his mother and set up his son. Although it was to prevent the dictatorship of foreign relatives, it was just that in all dynasties, unless the emperor was particularly shrewd, he could balance the three forces of foreign relatives, eunuchs, and imperial power. What else is there? It can be said." Yang Qihan thought for a while and finally vomited what was in his heart, "Prince Li Liu Ju is filial and generous in government. He has been rehabilitated many times and won the hearts of the people. According to Liu Ju, there are tens of thousands of onlookers in the city of Chang'an, officials and common people. Human sentiments fluctuate, and it's hard to stop... It's just a pity that this benevolent prince was framed and killed for no reason."

"Water can carry a boat and capsize it..."

"Qin Mie, isn't it just that the officials forced the people to rebel." Yang Qihan looked at the chessboard and smiled helplessly, "Young Master Fusu is the eldest son of Qin Shihuang, and he has high hopes for him. Just because he burned books and harassed Confucianism many times to persuade him, This offended Qin Shihuang, so he sent Fusu to Shangjun to supervise the army of General Meng Tian, ​​and helped Meng Tian build the Great Wall to resist the nomadic Huns in the north."

Li Si played a game of chess and sighed, "The eunuch is a disaster."

"The eunuch colluded with the important officials in the court, but the young master Fusu was too kind and committed suicide. Otherwise, there would be no great man in the world..."

"What do you think of Qi Han's twelve suggestions to A Niang?"

"Four words." Yang Qihan stretched out four fingers to Li Si, and said with a smile, "Benefit the country and the people."
