Chapter 787: A family that doesn’t care about shortcomings(1/2)

The two aunts were still cleaning up the house. Looking at this scene, Aunt Yang whispered: "You really shouldn't drink."

Aunt Wang also worried: "Drinking is not good for your health, nor is it good for having children."

The two aunts looked at each other first, with a bit more determination in their eyes.

Looking at Aunt Wang's bun, Aunt Yang said again: "You have more gray hair."

"Well, that's what happens when you get older. Look at Her Royal Highness, she is at her best age now."

"Divine Doctor Sun said that drinking too much is bad for both men and women. If your health is not good, it will affect your future."

"It is also said that Her Royal Highness's body is not fully recovered yet, and her congenital deficiencies cannot be cured so easily."

"Um."

The two aunts were talking, and after cleaning up the kitchen, they sat down again, their eyes looking at the couple under the light.

As soon as Her Royal Highness the Princess and the County Marquis drink too much, they will be ready to stop them.

Li Yue took a bite of mutton and whispered: "After reading my husband's plan, after getting the copper mine that Nanzhao wants, will we still develop planting in Nanzhao?"

Zhang Yang clinked the wine glasses with her, adjusted his sitting posture, and after sitting upright, he smiled and said, "Originally, we were celebrating the pumpkin harvest, so it's not appropriate to talk about this kind of thing."

Li Yue looked at the edge of the wine bowl with her fingers, thinking, and whispered: "Father will not stop here."

Zhang Yang nodded, "Well, Nanzhao is very important to the Tang Dynasty."

For Li Shimin and the people in the court, there was a war in Nanzhao, and when the king of Nanzhao asked for help, a cooked duck was delivered to him.

North Korea and China can take many measures in this regard.

If King Nanzhao had not been really beaten by Nanzhao and had no way to retreat, he would not have asked Datang for help.

Doesn’t Li Shimin have any idea about the wealthy land of Nanzhao?

It's a pity that King Nanzhao was beaten to the throne, and now this cooked duck has flown away.

After King Nanzhao ascended the throne, the new King Nanzhao ascended the throne and received the support of Nanzhao's subjects.

As a result, Datang had no reason to start a war.

Zhang Yang continued: "The climate in Nanzhao is very good and it is a good place for grain production. Moreover, the climate in South Vietnam is like that of Shuzhong, so it can be used as the granary of Guanzhong."

Seeing Her Royal Highness the Princess take another sip of wine, the two aunts frowned a little more.

If couples talk in other families, it may be because the parents are having trouble.

But for Lishan, there is not much family contact between husband and wife.

Li Yue grew up in a deep palace and had no contact with anyone in the clan. Talking about other people's family affairs was not something they liked.

The conversation just talked about development and North Korea and China.

Li Yue slowly put down the wine bowl. She slowly took a bite of the mutton, tasted it carefully and said, "There are still very few people coming to Lishan Technical Institute today, and the gentry are talking more about us."

Zhang Yang swallowed the celery in his mouth and said with a smile: "Of course they will discuss it. Besides, we don't teach people to become officials, so they will naturally look down upon it."

"Well." Li Yue put the bun on her temples behind her ears and whispered, "The imperial court spent a lot of money to support education. The father sent more and more iron ore, and the money became more and more.

The less I do, now I understand the purpose of Fang Xiang."

Zhang Yang listened carefully to her analysis.

"What the court is using is still the source of income strategy that my husband left for them, but it is very difficult to reduce expenditures. Whether it is the imperial examination or the construction of the Taiye Pool, a lot of money is needed. Now my father is handing this money bag to the house.

In the hands of each other."

Zhang Yang took a sip of wine and said in a low voice: "The taxes on entering Chang'an City are getting higher and higher, which leads to more frequent exchanges of goods outside Chang'an City. The taxes on entering Chang'an City are getting higher and higher, which will also make the prices of goods higher and higher.

Come higher and higher.”

"A dou of rice costs four cents, which has risen to six cents a dou of rice. The same goes for other goods."

"Is this our chance?"

Zhang Yang shook his head and said: "Lishan cannot participate. The DPRK and the Central Government have begun to pay attention to this matter. For Lishan, seizing the source of production is the most important thing."

"Is this the human resources your husband mentioned?"

"Manufacturing is inseparable from human resources, and this will not change at least now and for hundreds of years to come."

The couple whispered about various measures taken by the DPRK, and they thought the family was plotting a rebellion.

Soon the two aunts came and took away the wine, meat and vegetables. They neither gave them anything to drink or eat, which was not good for the health of the county prince and the princess.

Li Yue felt a little disappointed, so she had to wash up with her husband.

Under the bright moon in the night sky, you can vaguely see the clouds rolling in and out. Until dawn, the family gets up early.

Zhang Yang was sitting in front of his house and washing with his daughter.

Inside the house, Li Yue tidied up for a while, then walked out while combing her long hair.

The aunt stepped forward and helped Her Royal Highness clean up with a smile, and said in a low voice: "Have Her Royal Highness and the County Marquis been choosing the number of days all the time?"

"Yeah." Li Yue nodded.

Aunt Yang sighed and frowned a little worriedly. It turned out that the couple were so restrained in choosing the most suitable days.

Li Yue sat and looked at her aunt who was combing her hair behind the bronze mirror, and said with a smile: "Auntie, don't worry, we are still young."

"Your Highness the Princess is already in her mid-twenties, which is the best age to have children."

"We are not in a hurry. It will take another two years."

Aunt Yang added: "Her Highness the Princess's hair used to be thin and yellow, but now it looks so good, black and smooth."

With a smile on her face, Li Yue looked at her aunt in the bronze mirror. There were more white hairs in her bun, her face became more weathered, and she had many wrinkles when she smiled.

It's like you can feel the passage of life, the young people are getting stronger and stronger, and the elders are getting older.

Aunt Yang added: "Chang'an City will be very lively today. The palace has invited many people to hold this summer harvest banquet. Taifu Temple's achievements are very good. Your Majesty has repeatedly commended Shangguan Yi. I want this young minister of Taifu Temple to come forward."

Go to the banquet."

Li Yue's face became a little more smiling, "Father didn't tell our family this."

"Yes, your Majesty invited Shangguan Yi, a young minister, and didn't say a word about the county prince, the minister of the Taifu Temple." Auntie said earnestly: "But, Shangguan Yi happened to have a summer heat yesterday, so he can't go to Chang'an today.

Going to the banquet."

Qujiang Pool in Chang'an City is where the summer harvest banquet will be held, and many palace officials are preparing for it at the moment.

The Zhang Yang family ignored the place, so Li Shimin tidied it up and used it to hold banquets.

There are many guests here at the moment, and there are even singing and dancing in the waterside pavilion.

The Queen noticed that Her Majesty had a straight face all the time, probably because he was worried about the Nanzhao matter.

"Zhinu, how did you learn in Lishan this year?" Queen Changsun suddenly asked.

"After returning to my mother, I learned about production relations in Lishan Mountain."

Li Zhi sat obediently and began to talk about what he had learned in Lishan.

Queen Changsun asked on purpose, in order to attract His Majesty's attention and make His Majesty feel better.

After listening to Li Zhi's words, Empress Changsun said again: "It sounds very complicated. What do Zhang Yang teach you?"

"Brother-in-law also taught us the structure of the human body, and I also learned where the heart, liver, spleen, and lungs are."

"Huh? Do you want to practice medicine?"

Li Zhi thought for a while and replied: "Brother-in-law said that a lot of knowledge is basic. The more you learn, the less likely you will be deceived."

It’s really a very practical truth.

Queen Changsun smiled again.

Li Lizhi didn't like this kind of banquet. There were men and women at the banquet, and many people squeezed their heads to get into the banquet.

There are many people of the same age who come here to find a marriage. They spend a lot of money to enter here so that they can show their talents among their peers.

The woman's eyes are looking for the children of powerful people.

There are even more officials and dignitaries walking around here, clinging to each other.

A celebration banquet has become a fame fair.

Looking at Dongyang and Qinghe in front of them, they were also listless, and even less interested when they thought of staying in the palace for a while.

Life in the palace is not as comfortable as Lishan, nor does it have as many games as Lishan.

Dongyang likes to read and Qinghe likes to draw.

Queen Changsun whispered: "Want to go back to Lishan?"

Li Lizhi stopped the queen's wrist and said with a smile: "My daughter also wants to spend a few days with her mother."

"Yeah, that's fine."

Until the banquet broke up, several marriages were arranged among the powerful families in Chang'an City.

Li Shimin sat in the Manlu Hall for a while, thinking about Nanzhao and becoming increasingly unhappy, and asked, "What is Zhang Yang doing?"
