Someone who had been wandering around the imperial city with nowhere to go sneezed several times in succession. Hua Meng, who was behind him, was so frightened that he hurriedly asked for help, with a look of worry on his face as to whether His Highness the Crown Prince was sick.
"How is that possible? Someone is probably cursing me." Li Hong sniffed and said lazily.
"Your Highness, do you know who is cursing you? Do you want a slave..." Hua Meng made a motion of cutting his throat.
Li Hong rolled his eyes speechlessly. Now, whether it is Hua Meng, Cheetah, Jing Zhe or Mang Zhong, they can no longer treasure their treasures. If there is a slight disturbance, they will be as if someone has stepped on their tails. Lao Gao will be furious. , his eyes were red and full of murderous intent, and he wanted to kill everyone in the world who was against him and who had any ulterior motives.
"Then go ahead. I think that little girl Li Lingyue may be plotting against me in order to get Xue Shaoyuan to come back a few days ago." Li Hong said angrily.
When Hua Meng heard the words Li Lingyue, she suddenly felt as deflated as a rubber ball. After shrinking her neck, she clasped her hands behind Li Hong and stopped talking. Princess Taiping, not everyone can offend her. of.
He had searched every nook and cranny of the entire imperial city, and even the armor of General Jinwuwei had been kindly tidied up by His Highness the Crown Prince. But even so, Li Hong still felt empty and boring, and really couldn't find anything to do. Done.
But if he went to Chang'an City, Li Hong was too lazy to go out.
As His Royal Highness, on a cold winter day, after the winter snow had just melted, and on a sunny afternoon, after walking around the imperial city for a long time, the sun was still high and unwilling to sink. Even now, I still feel like I have nothing to do.
Now, as the real power holder of the Tang Dynasty, he can no longer be as casual as he used to be the prince. Even though he is still the prince of the East Palace, when all the rights of the country and the country of the Tang Dynasty are in his hands, he will not be as casual as before. Then there is the Crown Prince who can do whatever he wants.
In fact, he is really about to become a loner now. Except for a limited number of people who can speak his mind, speak freely and do whatever they want, in front of other ministers, he has to behave like an emperor who governs the country.
The rubber tree was naturally brought back by Li Chunfeng, but as for how the rubber tree can be transformed into rubber, Li Hong, like people of this era, did not understand, did not know, and was unclear.
So he didn't bother to go to Taiyi City before Yuanri, or even in the past two years. Xiaoxue and Xia Zhi, under the leadership of Bai Chun, kept everything in order.
Even the Royal Central Bank and the Royal Bank are now being opened with great success. A large amount of liquidity flows from south to north, east to west every day. After being taken over by the real people of this era, they are developing and operating in accordance with the actual conditions of this era. , although some experience in fund management and liquidity still needs a few reminders from Li Hong occasionally, but on the whole, everything is developing in a better direction.
The lonely and wandering Crown Prince, with Hua Meng who was also bored behind his back, wandered unknowingly to the entrance of the main hall of Daming Palace again.
When the weather is good, some wooden pillars, walls, tiles, windows, etc. in the entire Daming Palace, after a year of natural wind, frost, rain, and snow, are either peeling, broken, or broken. The windows had loose ribs and cracked glass.
Therefore, after entering the Daming Palace, in addition to the Jinwu Guards, the most eye-catching thing is the craftsmen who will serve as supervisors. At this moment, they are rushing to make the entire Daming Palace before the sun sets and before the arrival of the first day. The palace and even the entire imperial city were completely renewed.
Li Hong, who was holding his hands, looked left and right. As long as he passed by, all the craftsmen, even the Jinwu Guards, were ready. Those who should salute would salute, and those who should not work would immediately stop their work and salute. In short, because of his arrival, the faces of the officials who will be in charge are turning green.
Looking at His Highness the Crown Prince who was swaying and swallowing slowly, the officials who were in charge of the supervision were smiling, but they were extremely anxious in their hearts. The construction period was tight. If there was another heavy snowfall, it might not be possible to complete the entire project before the first day of the year. Check all the buildings in the imperial city.
Therefore, His Royal Highness's current slow actions are delaying his construction period.
Someone with nothing to do was like a vagabond. After walking around from Shangshu Province to Zhongshu Province to Menxia Province and Liubu, he realized that the sun was far away from the horizon... Li Hong stretched out his hand and gestured: "Well, There’s still a finger’s distance.”
The sound of mahjong and the familiar voice of Princess Chengyang sounded in Penglai Hall. Someone wandered to the window and looked inside through the glass, startling Wu Mei who had just touched a pair and raised her head happily.
Through the glass, he couldn't hear what Wu Mei was saying to him with a livid face, but Li Hong believed that the designated person was not asking him if he was cold or if he wanted to come in to warm up for a while.
Father Long, Princess Chengyang and Uncle Ji Wang Li Shen raised their heads blankly and looked at Wu Mei. They didn't understand why the queen started to scold Li Hong just after touching the cards happily.
As Wu Mei looked at the glass, the three of them were startled at the same time. They saw a bear-like person standing outside the window, holding his hands in front of his eyes, showing a row of neat white teeth, looking at them grinning. Laughing.
But someone was also very sensible. He looked at the feather duster held by Mother Long with a cold gaze, and finally stood outside and waved to the four people who were fighting fiercely inside, and then left quickly.
So when Princess Chengyang ran out and wanted to ask Li Hong about Xue Shao Yuanri's return, the "bear" had disappeared without a trace.
As a result, the appearance of Li Hong made Princess Chengyang even more uneasy, and she started losing money at the mahjong table. Naturally, the account was finally credited to Li Hong.
Li Zhi, who had completely ignored the government affairs, listened to his sister, Princess Chengyang, describing how miserable his nephew Xue Shao had been in Anxi, but he never complained about the hardships and showed his hard work without complaint. He just lowered his head and sorted out his cards. In front of him, he said impatiently: "Go to Li Hong yourself. I have not been involved in political affairs for many years. Now Li Hong has the final say in the country of the Tang Dynasty."
Chengyang's heartfelt request made Chengyang suffer a lot in front of her imperial brother who had always been tolerant to her, so Xue Shao became heartbroken!
The angry Princess Chengyang saw that her royal brother was not helping at all, nor giving him any face, so she began to confront her royal brother even if he was trying to make trouble.
Faced with Li Zhi's speechless gaze, Princess Chengyang looked up like a fighting cock that had just defeated her companions. She raised her slightly fat double chin proudly, snorted arrogantly at Li Zhi, and then continued to listen to him. The Queen and Prince Ji were arguing, just to prevent her brother from playing tricks.
The furious Li Zhi looked at his cards and Princess Chengyang, who was unwilling to let him cheat even if he lost money. After playing a card of 80,000, he said in a muffled voice: "I have ignored the government for many years. You Did you know it today? You agreed to it when Xue Shao left, but I remember stopping you. Why are you blaming me now? "
"Chen Mei was fascinated at the time. She saw Zhe'er training like a man. Of course she placed her hope in Zhe'er and hoped that she could train Shao'er as well. In this way, wouldn't Ling Yue be happy in her heart?" Chengyang Buoyang He replied giving in.
From time to time, Wu Mei's cheerful banging and humming sounds could be heard in their ears. This made the two people who were arguing even more angry, so they started to compete with each other to light the fire and listen, making Wu Mei and Ji Wang Li Shen so beautiful that they could hardly close their mouths.
Until the end of the round, the two of them still did not argue about whose fault it was that Xue Shao went to Anxi. However, in the end, the two of them shut up because if the discussion continued, they would have to settle the score with Princess Taiping.
The Duke of Chengyang came out of the Daming Palace full of anger. When he came to the East Palace, he felt that the East Palace was much deserted than before.
But call it deserted, you can still hear Li Lingyue's careless whisper, and Li Dan's angry voice.
Pei Wanying greeted Chengyang dignifiedly and politely, but when she learned from Pei Wanying that Li Hong had just set off from Chang'an to Xianyang to see the imperial mausoleum, she sat down on the sofa and gritted her teeth and said: "You little bastard, run away." He was so fast that he knew he was in trouble and ran away without stopping. "
"Auntie Huang, who are you?" Pei Wanying couldn't hear clearly what Princess Chengyang was saying plausibly, so she had to ask softly.
"It's nothing. Your husband just caused me to lose a lot of money today. It's a small matter. I'm leaving." Chengyang waved to Li Lingyue and then walked out.
As soon as the others took a look, they knew that the two of them had something private to say, so even Pei Wanying wisely chose to be rude and not send Princess Chengyang to the entrance of Li Zhengdian.
"How's it going? How was the conversation with your royal brother?" Princess Chengyang, who was eager to protect her calf, lost so much money when she entered the palace today, but she couldn't "get" her precious son back from Anxi, so she had to I am counting on my future daughter-in-law.
"Don't worry, I have a clever plan." Li Lingyue gave up and looked at Chengyang and said.
"I know you are worried. Tell me, what do you want?"
"It's very simple. Each soldier from Anxi will be given a set of cotton-padded clothes for the winter. Then I will ensure that Brother Seventh Emperor and cousin Xue Shao will appear in Chang'an City together before the first day of the year." Li Lingyue had a silly smile on her face. , Princess Chengyang looked at it with both love and hate.
"Is this your idea, or the idea of your bastard brother?" Princess Chengyang didn't think this little money was worth anything, but she had never thought of doing this.
Now that Li Lingyue reminded her, her heart suddenly became enlightened. She believed that even if this was not Li Hong's idea, as long as she did what Li Lingyue said, with Li Hong's character, he would definitely take the initiative to send Xue Shao back to Chang'an.
"Don't worry about it. Just say whether you are willing or not?"
"Why don't you want to do this? My aunt has already earned enough money over the years. The only thing she is worried about is your cousin. You still don't know? Since you have said so, if you don't give this face to anyone, you have to give you this princess. Face is not."
