Chapter 78 Take good care of the second sister-in-law
The winter months have come to an end, and the Tang Dynasty ushered in the sixth year of Wude.
In the past year, a lot of things happened in the Tang Dynasty, and many people died, but they also fought back the Turkic invasion. Now entering the new year, every household is looking forward to a good year, so as to make up for the shortage of the national treasury granary.
emptiness.
Wude Hall.
After Emperor Li Yuan accepted the New Year's greetings from the courtiers, he issued an imperial order; courtiers of the third rank and above in the capital were rewarded with silk and silk.

According to the regulations, they may be moved, promoted, or extended according to their location.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs is responsible for liquidating the inventory of grain warehouses in various places and promoting spring plowing and water conservancy.
The rest, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Rites, plan their respective affairs according to the regulations, no matter how big or small, and report them to Chen Zhengshi Hall.
The official department received the imperial edict, and the face of Shangshu Dugu Sheng blossomed with a smile. This time of year is a great opportunity for him to make a fortune.
Those at the bottom have to give money if they want to be promoted, and if they want to cover up their mistakes, they have to give money. In short, this period is the most comfortable time for the officials.
When the dynasty dispersed, Li Zhiyun found him.
"Dugu Shangshu."
"I have met His Highness."
Because of the large number of people, Li Zhiyun said with a straight face: "Last year we stopped fighting. For this year's plan, I hope that Shangshu will abide by his duties."
Hearing this, Dugu Sheng suddenly understood, so he replied: "Don't worry, Your Highness, the details of the official examination will be informed to Your Highness on a selected day. If there is anything wrong, Your Highness can explain the pros and cons, and I will make a new calculation."
"good."
The reason why he wanted to say hello to Dugu Sheng was because Li Zhiyun didn't want him to make any mistakes this year.
After chatting briefly with the six ministers, Li Zhiyun got up and went to the harem to meet his mother in Concubine Wan Gui's bedroom.
Concubine Wan Gui held her young grandson Chengzhao in her arms, smiling and talking to Princess Chu as she talked about everyday things.
The remaining sons, such as the eldest son Chengjing, the second son Chengyan, and the third son Chenglie, were all taken by their mother.
Everyone did not stay in the dormitory hall for too long. After taking a short rest, they went to the Ganlu Hall to pay homage to Li Yuan.
On the road.
Li Zhiyun held Bao Niang's hand and walked side by side with Concubine Wan Gui.
"Zhao'er is not as boring as you were when you were a kid. This little guy is quite noisy. Just now I teased him with cakes, and he is not afraid of backlash. He will definitely be a restless young man in the future. You have to pay close attention to him in the future."
Concubine Wan Gui held her grandson in her arms and gave instructions to her son.
Little Chengzhao is only three months old, but he is very strong and looks like a little tiger when he cries. Moreover, he has big muscles and can eat and sleep. He stumbles a little and never cries.
Li Zhiyun slept on the same bed as his wife at night, and sometimes little Chengzhao slept between them. He would kick his little thick legs back and forth and look very lively.
When his son interrupted him from being intimate with his wife, Li Zhiyun grabbed his calf, picked him up upside down, and hung him in the air. Unexpectedly, the little guy didn't cry, but instead laughed, looking heartless.
Li Zhiyun sometimes gets angry and wants to see what the little guy is afraid of. He often scares him with various toys.
He was not afraid, but even happier.
"Aniang is really wise. Although Zhao'er is young, he is very naughty. One time Chengyan snatched his toys. Although he didn't cry, he would fight with Chengyan."
Naturally, it is impossible for a child who is a few months old to start a real fight, but little Chengzhao was very irritable and angry, yelling at Chengyan, like a little tiger without teeth.
Occasionally, Li Zhiyun wondered whether his son had congenital bipolar disorder, and thought about quelling his anger in the future.
Concubine Wan Gui pinched her grandson's little face and said, "It's good that you know. The child is still young, so you don't need to worry about it. From the age of three, you can't be careless."
"yes."
"Wow wow wow." The mother and son were talking. Cheng Zhao waved his two fleshy hands and shouted, looking very happy.
The old man likes his grandchildren to be energetic and noisy. Concubine Wan Gui was even happier to see Chengzhao like this.
There is no way. The probability of children dying in this era is too high. Children are as lethargic as a plague chicken all day long. Adults should think about whether their children are sick.
Not to mention, the people of the Tang Dynasty favored martial arts and never liked being in a position of poverty.
The royal family of Li and Tang Dynasty was born in Guanlong. The children of each family studied literature and martial arts since childhood, and their riding and archery skills were needless to say. Only young people who are energetic and strong can make people like them.
Why did Queen Taimu like her second son Shimin?
It is because Li Shimin was bohemian at a young age, capable of literature and martial arts, he was handsome, and his riding and shooting skills were second to none. He could be called a young talent, the best in Taiyuan. He came and went, and his noble disciple Jing Cong, with his white horse and silver spear,
Graceful and virtuous.
Back then, Li Shimin was the most handsome boy in Taiyuan.
What parent wouldn't like such a child?
In front of the Ganlu Palace, a group of concubines have gathered.
Seeing Concubine Wan Gui's arrival, all the girls knelt down to give her blessings.
"I have met the imperial concubine."
"No gift."
Since the death of Empress Taimu, Li Yuan has not renewed his marriage, nor has he re-established the empress after ascending the throne. Because of Wan Guifei's obedient character and her dignity as a concubine, she was the first person under the empress, so all matters in the palace were overseen by Wan Guifei.
In recent years, with the rise of Li Zhiyun, Concubine Wan Gui became like a deputy queen in the harem.
After the concubines and Concubine Wan Gui met, Li Zhiyun and his concubines also greeted the young mothers.
In the crowd, Zhang Jieyu looked at the majestic Li Zhiyun and silently lowered her eyes.
Not long after, people from the East Palace, Prince Qin's Mansion, and Prince Qi's Mansion also arrived one after another.
The three brothers, the prince, the king of Qi and the king of Chu, gathered together and talked with smiles on their faces. The prince was unhappy that the king of Chu was disobedient. The king of Qi was planning to kill the prince, and Li Zhiyun was planning to kill the two of them.
Therefore, the superficial jokes are just a cover-up for their inner viciousness.
They were chatting happily, but the female relatives of Prince Qin's palace were a little lonely. After greeting everyone, they gathered together on their own initiative.
Li Chengqian saw several cousins and was about to go over to play, but his mother-in-law pulled him expressionlessly, and no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free.
After all, the Changsun family is the wife of the King of Qin, and there is nothing wrong with how they treat others. Although the King of Qin is dead and their status in Chang'an City has plummeted, no one dares to bully them. However, cold treatment is inevitable when people leave.
"Auntie, I want to go play." Li Chengqian looked at his cousins and uncles making a fuss, feeling very envious.
The people who paid homage to Li Yuan this time were not only the prince, the king of Qi, the king of Chu and their heirs, but also several of Li Yuan's own sons.
The eldest among them is the five-year-old Zhao Wang Li Yuanjing.
Changsun said in a low voice: "My son, do you still remember what your mother taught you?"
Li Chengqian pursed his lips and said, "Don't run around after entering the palace, talk less, and be good."
"Well, be obedient and obedient. When you get home, I will give you some snacks to celebrate your new year."
"oh."
He promised, but he couldn't hide the disappointment on his face.
At the age of four, he had a vague feeling that something had changed since his father's death.
