My Backyard is the Tang Dynasty

  The hotel has been cleaned up, Li Yin and Cui Yingying plan to visit Li Shimin and Concubine Yang tomorrow, and then go to Cui Shao's mansion for a sit down.

In the evening, Qin Huaiyu came back with the Zheng sisters, and Li Min probably guessed something from Qin Huaiyu's depressed face. Sure enough, after the two sisters got out of the car, their eyes were red and swollen. Cui Yingying sighed and dragged them to the side room Went to rest, in fact, Cui Yingying knew better than Li Yin that there would be this result.

"Don't be sullen. You should go back to the Duke's mansion first. Nothing will happen to the two of you here. Besides, it's not necessarily a bad thing. If the Zheng family agrees, the fate of the two may be even more tragic." Li Min Comfort Qin Huaiyu said.

   "Well, Huaiyu understands!" Qin Huaiyu nodded, then cupped his hands and said: "Then, Your Highness, I have returned to the Duke's Mansion!"

   Resting in the hotel for one night, the next day Li Yin took Cui Yingying to the Taiji Palace early in the morning, and under the guidance of the eunuchs, they arrived at the Yanxi Palace of Empress Changsun.

   "Your ministers see the father!" Li Yin and Cui Yingying said in unison.

  In Yanxi Hall, Li Shimin sat on the main seat in the main hall, with Empress Changsun on the left and Concubine Yang on the right. All three were dressed in formal attire, watching Li Yin and Cui Yingying with smiles.

   "Stay flat!"

  Li Shimin spoke, Li Yin and Cui Yingying stood up, Li Shimin smiled and said: "It's rare for Min'er to go back to Chang'an, how long do you plan to stay in Chang'an this time?"

   "Reporting to Emperor Father, I plan to go back after Zhengyuan Festival. Things in the fief are very complicated, and I can't delay for too long."

   "Go back so soon!" Concubine Yang said with concern, Li Yin only came back once a year, but only half a month later, she was really reluctant.

  Li Shimin said: "Min'er has already married and established a business, and he should focus on the government affairs of the fief. This time, I will meet the prince and princess when I come back. Don't be unfamiliar just because you are outside."

   "Yes, Father!"

  Li Shimin nodded, and asked some things about Li Yin's fiefdom. Li Yin answered one by one, and after chatting for a while, he got up and left. After all, he is the king of a country, although he is happy in his heart. But he can't accompany Li Min to do household chores like a woman, and he still has a lot of things to deal with.

Li Shimin left, there were Empress Changsun and Concubine Yang in the room, Empress Changsun was still very weak, she just talked with Li Yin for a while and then went back to the room to rest, Concubine Yang had to take them back to Ziyun Pavilion .

   "Yingying, come here, let my mother and concubine take a look." Arriving at Ziyun Pavilion, Li Yin suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, without having to restrain her hands and feet, Concubine Yang began to care about her daughter-in-law. Ask the cold and ask the warmth.

  Cui Yingying also showed her knowledgeable side at this time, which made Concubine Yang like it more and more, but after chatting for a few words, Concubine Yang's topic turned to Cui Yingying's belly, "It's been a year. Why hasn't there been any movement?"

  Cui Yingying is like a child who has made a mistake. She doesn't know what to say, her eyes are red. In this era, it is a very serious problem for a woman not to be able to extend her husband's family.

   "Mother and concubine, this person's physical condition is different, maybe after a few years, the birthdays of the princes and princesses in the palace are different. Isn't it?" Li Yin felt guilty and immediately excused Cui Yingying.

   Concubine Yang nodded, stopped asking, and began to tell Cui Yingying to eat more food to nourish her body. Li Yin heard that they were all foods that promote pregnancy, and she couldn't help sweating. This Concubine Yang is really obsessed with holding a grandson. He changed the subject, "Concubine Mother, is Empress Changsun's health still not getting better?"

  When Li Yin mentioned this, Concubine Yang sighed suddenly, and said, "Hey. Not only has it not improved, but it has gone from bad to worse. If this continues, I don't think it will last long."

   After thinking about it for a while, Li Yin asked Cui Yingying to wait for him outside, and he said: "In this way, the queen mother can lead the harem alone?"

   Li Yin's words made Concubine Yang's expression change suddenly, and her face sank, "Why did you say that?"

   "In the harem, apart from the eldest grandson empress, only the mother empress has the highest prestige. Regardless of knowledge, the mother empress is no worse than the eldest grandson empress. Doesn't the mother concubine want to replace her?" Li Yin further said.

Concubine Yang looked at Li Yin in disbelief. Li Yin tried his best to please everyone when he was in Chang'an, showing a scheming look. Now she suddenly understood that this was just a disguise by Li Yin to protect herself, and Now that he has become a feudal lord guarding one side, he has enough strength, and only then did he express his true thoughts.

"Ke'er also asked the concubine mother in this way. The concubine mother gave him the answer, and I will give you the same answer. No one can replace the master of the harem. Among the many concubines in the harem, only the eldest grandson will listen to the emperor. , Your father is a wise emperor, but he also has the problems that emperors have in ancient times. He is greedy for money, lustful, and indulgent. A few days ago, Wei Zhengjin said that your father is less and less fond of listening to honest advice. Your father was so angry that he almost killed him Wei Zheng, if Empress Changsun hadn't pleaded with her sick body, Wei Zheng's life would have been lost, if it were someone else, who would be able to persuade him." Concubine Yang said slowly.

According to historical records, in the tenth year of Zhenguan, after the death of Empress Changsun, Li Shimin's rule began to decline. He elected maids, repaired palaces, increased taxes and corvee, and even caused a small-scale peasant uprising. The prosperous age has been smeared with stains, but generally speaking, Li Shimin's merits outweigh his demerits, and he is a wise king.

   Li Yin naturally understands that people are not sages and sages can do nothing. Li Shimin is also a human being. As long as everyone has shortcomings, the key is that someone can advise in time to avoid mistakes.

Li Yin is currently only planning to develop in Bashu, because he understands his own ability and objective constraints, the land in these 27 states is enough for him to work on, and besides, only Yizhou has achieved substantial development in his fief. The other twenty states are still poor and empty, so he needs a stable construction environment, and this stable environment needs to be maintained by Li Shimin.

Li Yin's obedience to Li Shimin was only for his own benefit, and he was born in the emperor's family. He would not simply think that Li Shimin's love could control everything, but ultimately relied on his own strength, and at a certain point, Li Shimin would also Forced to make a decision that is unfavorable to Li Yin, after all, in this era, sometimes the relationship between the monarch and his subjects is as thin as paper, and if it is said to be on fire, it will be on fire, so he needs a stable court situation even more, which is the same as every day. Every country hopes that its neighboring countries will have a stable political situation.

   "I understand!"

   Concubine Yang's attitude is firm, Li Yin doesn't say anything anymore, maybe she also has her own considerations for her, and Concubine Yang's analysis also made Li Yin make a decision.

Concubine Yang sighed again, and said: "My son, my concubine doesn't want to fight anymore. After two dynasties, my concubine has seen through the intrigues of this emperor's house. I only hope that the blue lamp and ancient Buddha will accompany me. I hope that as long as you and Ke'er can spend your life in peace and stability, mother will be satisfied, remember what mother said, sometimes there must be fate, and there is no time to force it."

"The minister is also thinking about the third elder brother and the queen mother. Now the emperor is protecting us. If the emperor is a hundred years old, it is inevitable that there will be villains who will harm the Yang family." Now, Li Min no longer has to hide it , bluntly.

Concubine Yang was silent for a while when she heard the words. He understood what Li Yin meant. Now that Li Yin is so favored, but the throne will come from the eldest grandson's direct line again, whether they can accommodate Li Yin and Li Ke at that time, she doesn't care about herself, but Worried about the future of the two sons "Then what do you think?"

Li Yin chuckled, he just said this temporarily, and didn't want to provoke Concubine Yang: "Mother and concubine don't have to worry, I just said this, I will not let third brother and mother concubine suffer.", Li Yin's There is strong self-confidence in the words, it is good for him not to make trouble for others now, the only question is whether he is willing to make trouble for it, and now Li Yin obviously wants to live a peaceful life for a few years so that he can manage Bashu more perfectly Some.

After talking with Concubine Yang for a while, Li Yin and Cui Yingying went back to the hotel, but when they reached the door of the hotel, he was really startled. He saw that the door of the hotel was crowded with officials and merchants, and they were following behind them. The servants were still holding a lot of things, obviously they came to pay a visit to Li Yin.

   "These people are real, can't they come later?" Cui Yingying complained when she saw that the hotel was blocked. She also planned to ask Li Yin to go to Cui Mansion with her in the afternoon. Now it seems that there is no way.

  Li Yin smiled and said, "The day after tomorrow is the first day of junior high school, so of course they have to rush for these two days! Rongda, go to the hotel through the side door?"

   "Yes, Your Highness!" The main entrance of the hotel cannot be entered, but fortunately there is a side entrance.

Back at the hotel, Li Yin asked Wuwei to let people in. Since they were here to give gifts, he couldn't let people shut the door, but he couldn't meet them one by one, otherwise he wouldn't be able to see them all for a few days, so he asked Wuwei to let six people come in every time. Individuals come in.

After working all afternoon, Li Yin finally sent these people away. As a result, he didn't remember anyone's name, but he received a lot of gifts. , It will also allow them to take care of them more after the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Li Yin also accepts this gift with peace of mind. If he comes to his site to do business, what can he do if he doesn't spit it out.

Asking Rongda to count the gifts, Rongda quickly sorted out the list of gifts, and at this time he and Cui Yingying had already had dinner, he asked some questions about whether Cheng Huailiang was here, Wu Wei said that Cheng Huailiang brought Lu Boyan and Xiao Rui was here before, but he went back when he saw so many people, and said he would come again at the annual meeting, Li Yin smiled.

"A total of ten thousand-year-old ginseng, three stones of agarwood wood, six pairs of jade bracelets..." Lying on the bed, Cui Yingying, a money fanatic, began to count the gifts received again, Li Yin was a little tired and fell asleep, and suddenly Cui Yingying said: "Ancestral matcha craftsmanship? This gift is quite unusual!"

   "Matcha craft?" Li Yin, who was about to fall asleep in a daze, suddenly woke up.
