Rule the Roost in the Tang Dynasty: Six hundred and thirty-two Chang’an undercurrents

In an elegant teahouse in Luoyang City, Li Hong and Li Chuyuan are sitting by the window, a trace of cold wind stubbornly penetrates through the gaps in the closed windows, making people feel a little groggy in the warm tea room , I felt a burst of clarity, and the hot tea in my hand also seemed quite comfortable.

"What's up? Can it be back in your eyes?" Li Hong was lying on the case table, looking at Li Chuyuan's calm cheeks as if exchanging information with spies.

"What's the matter?" Li Chuyuan, who didn't react at first, looked at Li Hong in a daze, and asked reflexively.

"Human, look at..." Li Hong quietly opened a small gap in the window, and a cold wind blew in, causing Li Chuyuan to shiver. Just as he was about to stop Li Hong from closing the window, he heard Li Hong continued: "Look, stand upright like a war spear, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, tall stature, capable of literary and military skills, and know romance... If you don't know romance? Just live at home, don’t you understand? It makes you happy every day and makes you like a princess...Well, you are now the county head, and you are not much different from the princess."

"But every day I fight and kill, it's not too...well, is it too rude, if it can be refined..." Li Chuyuan squinted her chin and looked at the stiff Xu Yanbo standing outside. These days also I have been observing for a few days, and I am satisfied in all aspects, but I always feel that it should be as elegant and gentle as my father is better.

Compared to other dynasties, women at this time were much more open and independent in terms of the concept of men and women and the degree of autonomy in marriage than other dynasties.

Not only the princes and nobles, but also the daughters of ordinary people. They have a lot of autonomy in their marriage. If they are not satisfied with the man, the woman can completely veto the marriage on her own. of.

There will not be things that cannot be changed by parents’ orders and matchmakers’ words like in other dynasties. Women’s social status is still highly advanced at this moment, and men and women are relatively equal.

So, when Li Chuyuan and Li Hong discuss her marriage, they won’t show up like a girl’s twists and turns. The decent and decent manner is more pleasing to the eye than the kind of moaning. Up.

"It's not rude, it's not rude at all. It's just your impressions, not to mention people relying on clothes and saddles. Tomorrow, I will ask him to change into a literary costume. It is guaranteed that it will become like Uncle Ji, elegant and romantic." Li Hong said on behalf of Xu Yanbo.

Li Chuyuan tilted her head and glanced at him, murmured: "So what, it won't change the nature of his fighting and killing. I think it is better to think about it after Chang'an, how to explain to the queen. ."

"You are from the second rank of the county lord, he is from the third rank of the founding prince, this is not bad, although it is a high level... well, how about I transfer him out of the army and into the civil service? Say, what official position do you think is suitable for him? How about the Jingyang county magistrate? It just happens that I recently saw the Jingyang county magistrate not pleasing to my eyes. How about changing Xu Yanbo?" Li Hong also gave up for Li Chuyuan's marriage.

But I didn’t want to, but Li Chuyuan gave a big eye and disdain: "Do you know who the Jingyang magistrate is? You are the Crown Prince, can you remember who the Jingyang magistrate is? I don’t believe it."

"Then do you agree or disagree? The queen assigned it to you. You vetoed so hastily. Are you worthy of my mother and your father? Your conscience won't hurt?" someone bitterly accused .

Li Chuyuan had a calm face and beautiful eyes. After Li Hong closed the window, she stared straight at Li Hong, until she looked a little uncomfortable at Li Hong, she slowly said, "You are so hard. Encouraging me to agree is not as simple as empathizing with the soldiers around me. Besides, I have heard that this Xu Yanbo is loyal to you and obeys you. What is your purpose in bringing us together?"

Li Hong looked aggrieved, and defended: "What is this, I am doing it for your own good, why has it become my ulterior motive?"

"Are you doing something that made the queen angry again, so you are eager to use my marriage to calm the queen's anger against you? Li Dan and Li Lingyue are not rarely used by you like this. When I was with the queen, You did this before." Li Chuyuan's eyes were bright and deep, making someone invisible.

"You may not believe it. I really feel that you are destined. I sincerely hold the sincere intention of wishing lovers all over the world to be married. I hope that you can fly with each other and be a couple." Li Hong died. Admit that the two were brought together to please the mother, and to change the princess.

"Then I will think about it again." Li Chuyuan looked at Li Hong's sincere and frank eyes without worry, and said cautiously.

In the cold wind outside, Xu Yanbo involuntarily sneezed several times when the two were talking, always feeling like someone was trying to figure out himself.

The marriage of King Pei and Li Xian gave Li Zhi an excellent excuse to stop the court. Regardless of the size of officials in Chang'an City, during the few days of King Pei’s wedding, they did not have to be in the court, except for the winter. Apart from a few political affairs, officials of all sizes in Chang'an City began to be crowded with all corners and corners of Chang'an City like a flock of sheep released.

Either recounting the past, or looking for friends, or visiting relatives, or after a few days of snow, walked out of Chang'an to enjoy the snow and plums, make wine and tea, chant poems and make fus, in short, just like Chang'an during this time The same, because of King Pei's big wedding, it became very lively.

The folks have also begun to spread the word, why did His Royal Highness never get married, why did Wang Pei get married? His Royal Highness was very kind and obeyed the rules of etiquette. He was in love with the quasi-prince and stopped at courtesy. Unlike King Pei and the princess, who had already stolen the forbidden fruit.

Although these things are nothing in the royal family, especially for the prince, it is a common occurrence for the prince to molest the palace maids and sleep the palace maids. Each dynasty is not a minority, and there are reasons for this.

But in all the discussions, it was mixed with some viciousness, which made Fang Xianzhong and others disturbed and worried about the message: The reason why His Royal Highness failed to complete the wedding before King Pei was because King Pei secretly Block related.

What? Wang Pei actually sent someone to secretly plan to assassinate the prince when he was visiting Jiangnan?

What? The reason why the Crown Prince failed to complete the wedding before King Pei was because he was assassinated by King Pei again in Xingyang?

What? The prince's father, the prince's young teacher, Yang Sijian, and the staff minister Yang Zhirou, even collaborated with King Pei to plot against the prince?

In short, Chang'an, which has become more lively because of King Pei's wedding, is also because of these undercurrents, which makes some people feel uneasy and restless.

These rumors, at this moment, are still circulating in the market, but they have gradually spread from the West to the East like locusts, completely uncontrolled.

Fang Xianzhong didn't look red and vigorous because it was the happy day of his daughter Fang Muqing, but rather frowned and sighed.

Fang Xianzhong, who was more solemn in his expression, just came out of the residence of Zongchuke, the chief official of Jingzhao Mansion. He looked at Zongchuke's mansion gate. On this day of joy, his heart rose. An unknown premonition.

"Go to the Pei Palace." Fang Xianzhong gave an order to the bearer, then got into the sedan chair, and then continued to sigh restlessly.

I originally hoped that on the grounds of King Pei’s rejoicing, he hoped that Zong Chuke could order people to stop and suppress such rumours against King Pei.

But apparently he had depressed Zong Chuke's tough attitude. Facing his threats in the name of King Pei, Zong Chuke was not afraid, but the one who shook his head and stroked his beard was on the side of the people.

He even treated these comments in the public as conclusive news, as if he was inquiring about the authenticity.

No waves without wind? Is it really the work of His Royal Highness? In order to discredit King Pei and suppress competitors for the position of prince, the prince began to fight back?

But what can be achieved by such rumors? Or is it said that facing Wang Pei’s wedding before him, he felt the pressure and had to make a move?

Others may believe that Wang Cao and others were killed by Li Jingye, but I and Wang Pei can't be more aware of whose hands Cao Wang and others died.

The rumors stop at the wise man. This is what Li Xian, who is now preparing to become the groom's official, hopes most. At this moment, for the first time, he hopes that the people of Chang'an City can reach the height of the wise man.

In the face of Li Zhe’s sobering and pretty good-looking, he has a somber face like Fei Shuang June, extremely dark.

"When the old fifth comes back, it will be fine to face the people of the world. You don't have to worry too much. You should be the groom's official soon~IndoMTL.com~ You still have to pay attention to your body." Li Zhe winked, this In the years, soaking in the barracks every day, the whole person has a little more masculine and brave momentum, and it looks more like a fierce and brave prince.

"No more rumors, some people's unintentional remarks, how can I take it seriously, I'm just worried that this will make the old five think about it, and the quarrels between the brothers are not in harmony. Doesn't it make the father and the mother worry?" Li Xian looked at the entire renewed palace, but still couldn't be happy anyway.

Li Zhe looked at Li Xian's worried face and chuckled lightly: "That's good. Since you also know that brotherly disharmony is the last thing the father and queen want to see, then I'm relieved. , By the way, do you know when the old fifth will be back?"

"The whereabouts of the prince, is it my random guess? But my wedding is coming soon, as the prince, he has not shown up all the time. Doesn’t this make the world really think that I’m squeezing him out and snatching him? Is the crown prince? He won't show up again, I'm afraid that even the father and the queen will have a lot of criticism towards him." Li Xian shook his head and said.

"That's right, but your wedding is ahead of the fifth, and you haven't been able to come back. Then you can bear more, but I heard that it will be soon. When you come back, you also know that on the way, the fifth child was assassinated in Xingyang and almost lost his life. At that time, the entire Chang'an city was spreading. You may be established by your father and queen after your wedding. The prince is. But ah... Fortunately, the old five is fine, and finally came back, otherwise, even if you are made the prince, the old five comes back, do you say you will withdraw or not? No, let’s not talk about it, I’m leaving, don’t think the gift money is too small, and I’m not as rich as the fifth-year-old. By the way, Bai Chun has arrived in Chang’an.” Li Zhe’s last sentence almost scared Li Xian. Sat on the ground.
