Tang's dining table

Chapter 195 Weicheng Song

Li Yifu greatly appreciated Yun Chu's ingenious way of disposing of the corpses of corrupt officials, and even suggested to the emperor in the court that if corrupt officials were found in the future, they could do the same thing.

There are many doctors in the world, and there should be many bones needed...

After this suggestion was made, the court fell silent.

Even the usually staunchest censor Yan Guan shut his mouth and held the tablet in his hand like a Bodhisattva in the temple.

Li Zhi looked around and talked about it, and the censor responsible for managing the order of the court ordered Li Yifu to retreat.

Since then, the name Yunchu has basically become a taboo. No one wants to mention him, and no one wants to associate him with other things.

As if to eliminate the shocking and frightening news brought by Yunchu, Wu Zhaoyi added a new princess to the royal family three days later.

Li Zhi liked this daughter very much. He would go to Wu Zhaoyi's place to see the child every day before going about his own business.

The sky in Chang'an is gloomy, and the dark clouds are very low, as if they are pressing on the top of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. Heavy rain will fall anytime and anywhere.

The old monkey rode a camel to Yun's house. He looked very tired and listless. When he came back, he lay on a soft couch and received Naha's attentive massage.

Yun Chu took a look at the equipment Old Monkey threw on the ground and knew that he had returned to the Western Region recently.

"Is it cleaned up?"

The old monkey shook his head and said: "There are one hundred and twenty-six caves in the temples on Hexi Road. Cleaning them one by one is like using a chisel to cut through a mountain. It's not that easy."

"Master Xuanzang can't catch you and order you to die alone, can he? Look at the people who are spying on you. You keep eating and drinking, singing and dancing all day long to keep yourself fat, but you are getting thinner and thinner."

The old monkey waved his hand and said, "Just rest for a while."

Seeing that the old monkey was unwilling to tell him more about the affairs of Buddhism, Yunchu didn't ask any questions and just let the old monkey lie quietly for a while and accept Naha's attentive massage.

"Recently, don't move around, especially don't do things like killing people and hanging corpses. No one will have the energy to take care of others."

After listening to the old monkey's words, Yun Chu understood that matters after Li Zhi's deposedness had reached the most critical moment.

This time, it was not just the deposed queen, but also the matter of Changsun Wuji.

For Li Zhi, the uncle who used to hold him in his heart has now degenerated and become hesitant, even to the point of hostility.

Chu Suiliang had begun to openly attack Wu Mei, a concubine, at court meetings. This was not a very normal thing. Li Zhi felt that Chu Suiliang had exceeded the rules.

For the emperor, an important minister suddenly broke the rules that everyone had agreed upon in the past. This would make him feel that this person was very strange, and he needed to re-evaluate this person who he was very familiar with in the past.

The emperor's re-evaluation and re-understanding is terrible. It is definitely not a trivial matter like Li Zhi catching Yun Chu with his own hands for stealing his own seeds.

No matter where Yunchu planted the stolen seeds, in the end, the land still belonged to the royal family and the things still belonged to Li Zhi.

Therefore, he didn't care and even wanted to encourage Yun Chu to steal more.

No matter how much money Yun Chu made from the stolen seeds, the money and food would only exist in the Tang Dynasty and would only make his empire richer.

Chu Suiliang's unprovoked attack on a palace concubine was an attack on himself. He just had to directly tell the fact that Wu Mei was the former imperial concubine.

Judging from Chu Suiliang's excited criticism, the time to tell this fact is probably at the next court meeting.

If Chu Suiliang had no backing, Li Zhi didn't believe it. Among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, there was only one person qualified to serve as Chu Suiliang's backing, and that was Changsun Wuji.

Li Zhi never thought that it was a serious matter for him to take Wu Mei out of the temple. Even his extremely wise father did whatever he wanted in this regard.

How come it was a sign of wisdom and martial prowess to my father, but to me, it became a heinous crime?

Wu Mei, who had just given birth a few days ago, was lying weakly on the bed, holding a newborn Chou Chou baby in her arms.

It looked like she had just finished breastfeeding.

Breastfeeding her child for a month herself is something Wu Mei insists on doing. According to her, this proves that she has fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother to her children.

As for one month later, that will be the wet nurse’s business.

Not far from Wu Mei's bedside, there are some strange green clothes. The clothes are folded neatly. The most important thing is that these clothes do not have the common belts on the clothes of the Tang Dynasty, but many I got some copper pieces the size of copper coins.

Li Zhi untied his bun, took something similar to a hat and put it on his head. Then he put down the ring of things wrapped around the hat, and found that the ring of things just protected the back of his neck, and the two original buttons The ear-like thing on the top of the head also fell down. The palace man quickly pulled the ear to the emperor's chin and locked it with a copper piece.

Li Zhi measured his face with his hands and found that only the mouth, nose, cheeks and eyes were exposed, and the rest of the face was tightly wrapped by this strange hat with a deep barrel shape.

"It's not easy to wear armor!"

Li Zhi is very satisfied with the thermal insulation effect of the hat, but he is very dissatisfied with the protective power of the hat.

Seeing that the child was asleep, Wu Mei laughed softly and said, "It's great that something costing one thousand two hundred yuan can keep warm. Your Majesty wants to compete with Guang, who costs more than one hundred thousand yuan." Compared with thin scale armor, mountain vine armor, and black hammer armor, isn't it greedy and insufficient?"

Li Zhi shook his head and said: "I didn't say I wanted to compare it with the Bright Armor. What I want is something comparable to the White Cloth Armor, Soap Silk Armor, and Cloth Back Armor. Even if it costs a little more, I am willing to do so."

Wu Mei sat up slowly, and the palace servant quickly placed a pillow behind her. Then she said to Li Zhi: "Yun Chu just came up with an idea. Since His Majesty wants this thing to be both warm and strong, , why not give this thing to Department A, where there are many skilled craftsmen, and they can naturally make things that meet your Majesty's requirements.

I have also seen these things and found that the copper sheets on these clothes are very good. There is no need to tie them, just buckle them into the corresponding holes, and the clothes can stick to the body firmly. "

Li Zhi took off the hat that made him suffocate, picked up his clothes, looked at it, nodded and said, "This seems really good."

Wu Mei smiled and said, "What makes Your Majesty so angry?"

Li Zhi looked at Wu Mei and said: "Take good care of your body. When your body recovers, I will tell you in detail."

Wu Mei said: "Thank you for your mercy, Your Majesty."

Li Zhi leaned over to look at his daughter again, and then left the Zhaoyi Palace. He planned to go to Changsun Wuji's house again tonight to make one last effort.

The palace man carefully combed Wu Mei's long hair, while Wu Mei stared blankly into the depths of the palace, always feeling that there was a ghost hiding there.

Everyone in the Yun family was dealing with the cotton in their hands, even Yun Chu and Naha were no exception. Yun Chu lost interest after tearing a few handfuls of cotton, and Naha ran away long before he lost interest.

Ever since the old monkey shrank into the soft brocade couch, he seemed dead and motionless. If Naha hadn't tested his breath with her hair and found that his breathing was long and slow, Yun Chu would have thought that this old guy had already died. died.

The old monkey was sleeping very deeply, the kind of sleep that was completely defenseless. At this time, the old monkey was easy to murder.

The two nests of swallows under the eaves have completed the responsibility of raising children. Their children have grown up safely and are now practicing flying hard in the yard. One of them even boldly landed on the head of the lynx.

So, the lynx swallowed it without ceremony, pretending not to move, and then Naha opened the lynx's mouth and rescued the poor swallow.

There are many dried bugs on the windowsill. These are the eaves fees paid by the two swallows to the owner Yun Chu.

After these little swallows have completely learned to fly, they will fly all the way to the south.

This year, they left a little late.

The sky is overcast but it never rains. Without the sun for four or five days in a row, Chang'an has become a bit cold.

On the water lilies in the lotus tank, after the last water lily bloomed, no flower buds came out. The edges of the leaves spread on the water gradually began to turn red and became a little curled.

A newly hatched frog with two legs was swimming happily in the lotus tank. I wonder if it could turn into a real frog in time when Liu Yi fished out the water lily roots and emptied the lotus tank.

More and more people from Chang'an are coming to Jinchangfang. The plum blossoms on the tree outside Di Renjie's house have become blurred. As for the "Inscription on the Humble Room" written by Yun Chu, it has also been eroded by the wind and rain into black lumps. .

At the time, only less than half of the shabby houses that could accommodate 500 scholars were left. The Big Wild Goose Pagoda stood on the other half of the shabby houses that had disappeared. Because the scholars had the habit of writing poems and articles on the walls, so, I don’t know how many corpses of characters are buried under the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.

The next day, it finally rained. Raindrops fell on Chang'an City and on the eaves of Yunchu's official office in Dongshi City.

Seeing the rain falling on the willow leaves outside the window, which were still green, Yun Chu suddenly remembered a poem.

The morning rain in Weicheng is lightly dusted, and the guesthouses are green and willow-colored, which is the most beautiful thing about spring. It is better than the smoke and willows all over the imperial capital.

It doesn't matter whether this poem rhymes or not, and it doesn't matter whether he was eaten alive by Yun Chu. What matters is that Chu Suiliang finally said the words he shouldn't have said...

"Your Majesty, if you really don't like Queen Wang, you can choose another queen. Why not choose Wu?

Wu was a talented person of the late emperor, what will the people of the world say about your majesty? "

Li Zhi was furious, and the right servant of the Minister of the Tang Dynasty shot Chu Suiliang but remained unmoved.

Yunchu felt very happy. It was inappropriate for his son to marry a woman his father had slept with. He didn't know if Li Zhi had any special hobbies.

Just as he was about to take a swig of wine, Brother Rumor came over in a gentle manner.

"We are about to welcome a new queen. If you support changing the queen at this time, you will be promoted immediately."

Yun Chu's hand holding the wine glass paused for a moment and he looked at her softly and said softly, "Have you gone to watch yet?"

Wen Wen shook his head and said: "My family's reputation does not allow me to be a sycophant, but you can."

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "My son will say the same thing as you in the future."
