Chapter 5 (1/2)
Spring to winter, cold to summer, time so little by little in the fingertips slip away. It has never been contaminated with dust, but it has touched the brand of memory and the traces of time. In the long river of time, it turns and moves, and the spray is like all living beings rising with the wind and drifting by the waves, which will eventually be submerged in the river of history.
Spring farming ceremony is an important agricultural event in the Tang Dynasty. The emperor and empress still need to cultivate in person like the former Emperor. At this time, corn and wheat were the main crops in Guanzhong area of the Tang Dynasty. In recent years, the weather was favorable and the country was peaceful. The grain supply in the whole Guanzhong area was basically self-sufficient.
In addition, with the convenient transportation capacity of the Sui canal in the former dynasty, a large number of grain transported to Luoyang by waterway from the south of the Yangtze River were stored in the three granaries of Luoyang. The economic prosperity of waterway also made Luoyang extremely prosperous, and its status even had a faint trend of catching up with Chang'an.
As the saying goes, the family has surplus food, and everything is not flustered, which also gives Li Zhi enough confidence and confidence in his expedition to the Western Turkic shaboro. At present, the national strength of the Tang Dynasty is very strong. Although it has not yet reached its peak, it is enough to form a deterrent force in the surrounding areas, making all countries look forward to hearing the cold and the wind timid.
Just like the US emperor of the last generation, when attacking a country, the strategic mobilization it had to do and the national strategic reserves it needed to use were totally easy things for itself. It could launch a war in a very short time, instead of spending all of the country's strength to pay for a war.
In this era, the present Tang Dynasty is nothing more than a behemoth like the last American emperor. If it wants to launch a war, it has enough capacity and strength in any strategic reserve.
The use of the former Emperor and the old ministers reflected the Tang Dynasty's confidence in this war, and also reflected the Tang Dynasty's attention to the war. The veteran generals who had been through the battlefield and were also familiar with the terrain of Western Turks, together with the famous general Su dingfang's assistance, showed that Li Zhi attached great importance to the war.
If the expedition against the West Turks is a foreign invasion, then internal worries do not exist. In the Imperial Palace, the wind and clouds are surging, the clouds are flowing, and the intrigues are no less than the foreign invasion, or even more dangerous than the foreign invasion.
However, in these two torrents, a wonderful flower makes the intriguing and weird atmosphere of the harem add a little fresh breath. This wonderful flower of small fresh, even in the dark clouds in the back of the sky, slowly tearing open a crack, revealing the long lost blue sky and white clouds.
After the Spring Festival ceremony, the five princes, who had reached the age of three, also began to study from nine to five. Accompanied by his brother and sister, the six Royal descendants began to learn together.
Mr. Li Wanyi is not interested in the officials because they are not interested in the officials!
But that's it. After two months of interest in shangguanyi, Li Hong began to play truant, skip classes, pretend to be sick and so on.
Because Wu Mei had just given birth to Li Xian, she was granted the title of King together with Li Hong in the year of her birth. Li Hong was named the acting king by Li Zhi, and Li Xian, who was still drinking milk, was named king Lu. Wu Mei in the confinement can not completely put her mind on her eldest son Li Hong.
The weather was extremely hot. Soon after the sun rose from the ground level, the whole earth seemed to be on the steamer. The trees in the palace drooped their leaves listlessly, as if they were dissatisfied with such a hot and unbearable weather.
A small figure sneaked out of the back door of Hongwen hall again. Li Sujie glared at the small eyes and looked at the figure in a daze. Did this guy dare to slip away? Wasn't he just punished by his mother yesterday? How dare he slip away!
Li Hong has been tired of the study of shangguanyi and Guo Yu for a long time. For him, he has studied these ancient prose for several generations. He is already impatient and can't be impatient any more. In addition, he also took Kong Yingda Xiu's ”Five Classics and justice” as a compulsory study, which made him even more intolerable, because he was not interested in these things at all, and his study was in addition to sleeping or sleeping.
After being punished by his mother's concubine yesterday, he knew that he would have to be punished if he didn't do anything to please his mother's concubine today, but fortunately, he had a perfect plan.
After passing through Menxia Province, we turn to a quiet corner to see that there is no one around. At this time, it is the time for the courtiers to go to court. Naturally, the front of the Imperial Palace seems to be quieter.
The palace maid Xiaoxue and eunuch grain of grain have obviously been waiting for a long time. When they see the Daiwang running over, they wave their hands in a hurry.
”Are you ready?” Dai Wang Li Hong picked up two soft cloth cushions in Xiaoxue's hand and pinched the thickness of the pinch, and then nodded with satisfaction.
”You are ready. They are waiting for the courtiers to come to court. You can go in after a moment.” Eunuch grain of grain opens the package in hand to Li Hong to see.
Li Hong picked up a piece of white and transparent things and smelled it. It didn't have any taste. It was estimated that it was true. After seeing the goods, he motioned for grain and snow to turn around.
Xiaoxue and Huameng also understand that, similarly, they are used to acting king to do their own things. Although these things are their duty as slaves, Daiwang never let them do these things.
Li Hong looked at no one around, and then looked up at the hot sun. After pondering for a long time, he still decided not to use them. It would be better to ask Xiaoxue to sew them on their knees.After trying to understand the matter, Li Hong patted the grain of grain and indicated that it was OK. Then he handed two cloth cushions to Xiaoxue and said, ”you can sew it on my knee later, so that when my mother imperial concubine punishes me to kneel again, my knee will not hurt. Remember not to tell anyone.”
Xiaoxue nods with grain in a hurry, and her master has his own opinions since childhood. As a child of only three years old, he is just an adult, much smarter than other princes.
Although Chungeng was always absent from school this year, his majesty passed the examination smoothly every time. This also made his majesty Longxin very happy. He did not pursue him for truancy every day like Zhaoyi, and then punished him every once in a while.
It is obvious that each punishment has no effect. After punishing Dai Wang, people will forget about it, and then they still go their own way. Every day, there are big mistakes and small mistakes. Wu Zhaoyi, who is angry at the birth of a child, has no way to deal with it.
Li Hong secretly hid in the corner of Taiji hall, watching the ministers sweating, complaining about the hot weather, and then slowly left.
