Chapter 109 Zhuang Sheng dreams of butterflies

"Wenxin, why are you crying?" Seeing this situation in front of you, Li Yan was also stunned. He couldn't figure out what the situation was. However, when he saw Xiao Wenxin's pear blossoms were raining, he was also very heartbroken. He immediately took her in his arms and comforted me.

"Woooo~ Husband, all... Wenxin is not good, and she woke you up in the middle of the night." Xiao Wenxin lay in Li Yan's arms, sobbing and blaming himself, but tears still couldn't help but flow.

"Okay, okay, Wenxin doesn't cry. Are you missing home?" Li Yan patted her shoulder and said, "When a woman gets married, she has been from other people's family since then. In addition, Xiao Wenxin has never left home before, so it is not surprising that she misses home. But tomorrow is the day for Guining. Shouldn't she cry if she shouldn't think about home?

"No, Wenxin didn't miss home." Xiao Wenxin sobbed a few times, her face covered with tears.

Li Yan carefully took the handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from her face. He was about to ask her why she cried, but she didn't expect that Xiao Wenxin suddenly stretched out her hand, grabbed Li Yan's hand, stared at him with a sad expression and said, "Husband, do you don't like Wenxin?"

"Uh~" Li Yan was very surprised. He didn't expect Xiao Wenxin to ask such a question. She didn't sleep in the middle of the night due to her difficulty in childbirth. Is she thinking about this?

"Wenxin, why do you think so? Although we didn't have much contact before marriage, it is a blessing for me, Li Yan, who is as beautiful and virtuous as Wenxin, to marry a beautiful and virtuous woman like Wenxin, which is my lifelong blessing. I was too happy, how could I not like you?" Li Yan immediately expressed his feelings. When we didn't know each other before, Li Yan might just be interested in Xiao Wenxin's appearance, but after some time of contact, he had an unspeakable pity for Xiao Wenxin, and was even beginning to fall in love with this weak girl.

"Since my husband likes Wenxin, why... why..." Xiao Wenxin's tone was still a little sad and angry at the beginning, but in the last two words, he became hesitant, and even his voice was low, his face was extremely blushing.

"Why?" Li Yan asked stupidly.

"Why..." Xiao Wenxin felt ashamed to her face, but in the end she bit her red lips lightly and plucked up the courage to ask softly, "Why don't you want to perform the ritual of Duke Zhou to Wenxin?"

When the last word "ritual" was finished, Xiao Wenxin's courage that he had finally accumulated disappeared without a trace. He covered his face and plunged into Li Yan's arms, and never dared to show his face again.

Li Yan smiled bitterly when he heard this. He had been working hard these days, but he didn't expect that Xiao Wenxin misunderstood it. He made people suspicious and couldn't get up and cry because of this in the middle of the night. It was thankless.

"Oh~ Wenxin, I know you will ask this question sooner or later. Since this is the case, I still understand with you. The reason why I endure it is mainly because I am afraid of hurting your body..." Li Yan sighed. He has been worried about this for the past two days, thinking about how to explain to Xiao Wenxin, but after thinking about it, he found that it is best to explain the common sense of women's childbirth to the other party.

Listening to the knowledge of women's fertility explained to her, Xiao Wenxin was shy at first, but gradually became more and more immersed in her senses. What surprised her was that as a man and not a doctor, how could Li Yan be so familiar with the physiological structure and characteristics of women?

"Husband, according to your words, it is best for us women to have children after the age of eighteen. This will not only bring about healthy children, but also reduce the difficulty of giving birth. I will greatly reduce the examples of dying due to difficult labor?" After listening to Li Yan's explanation, Xiao Wenxin explained what he understood.

"Yes, that's it. Wenxin, you are only fourteen years old this year, and you haven't even grown the skeleton. If you get pregnant too early, I'm really afraid..." Li Yan came here, staring at Xiao Wenxin with deep eyes, so Xiao Wenxin crawled into Li Yan's arms with a 'moan', and hugged Li Yan's chest and abdomen tightly. He felt extremely affectionate and joyful for Li Yan in his heart.

After a while, Xiao Wenxin raised his head from Li Yan's arms and asked with some confusion: "Husband, everyone is Xingjun. Wenxin didn't believe it before, but what you are talking about today is something that Wenxin has never heard of. Moreover, as far as Wenxin knows, even an imperial doctor with advanced medical skills may not understand these principles. Could it be that you are really the star king in heaven?

"Haha, Wen Xin, you believe in these nonsense. Being a husband is not a star lord. Otherwise, how could he get moved to Chunxin and marry such a lovely beauty as you?" Li Yan lowered his head and pressed against Wen Xin's forehead, and said with a confused smile on his face.

Xiao Wenxin was heartbroken by Li Yan's intimate behavior, but the doubts in her heart did not diminish at all. After all, she and Li Yan were husband and wife. In Xiao Wenxin's heart, there should not be any secrets between them. So after thinking about it, he asked: "Husband, but Wenxin still has a question in her heart. Do you know whether to tell me?"

"Oh~ Wen Xin, you want to ask, why do I know so much knowledge that I don't know? And after being hurt by Cheng Huailiang last time because of teasing you, it began to become very different from before, and it could even be like a different person?" Li Yan sighed, and he knew that as his closest person, he would definitely be interested in his biggest secret

In fact, as Li Yan became more and more famous, whether it was curious or other purposes, many people were very interested in his performance as if they were completely different after he was injured. Although Li Yan used ghosts and gods to make excuses, many people actually doubted this kind of law, believing that there must be something hidden in it that others don’t know, and there are even many other speculations. For example, someone behind Li Yan has been guiding him; there are also people with ulterior motives. Now Li Yan has been transferred, not the original King of Liang at all, etc. Of course, these laws are only circulated in the mouths of some people, and not many people know them. Otherwise, if they are passed on to Li Shimin and Yang Fei, they will definitely not be able to bear it. After all, will other parents still admit their own son?

Xiao Wenxin was also a little suspicious of Li Yan's ghost and god, so he wanted to ask clearly. After all, if there was such a knot between the two, how could they truly be united in the future?

"Husband, if there is any difficulty, Wenxin should not listen?" Seeing Li Yan's face showing a difficult look, Xiao Wenxin said obediently. As long as she knew that the person in front of her was her husband and treated her sincerely, this was enough.

"Wenxin, I actually have nothing to do with it. I just don't know how to understand it. I'm afraid you will find it hard to believe it after listening to it." Li Yan smiled helplessly and smiled helplessly.

"Oh, husband, you might as well." Xiao Wenxin immediately hugged Li Yan's arm with excitement and said, "As soon as he heard that Li Yan was willing."

"Yeah~" Li Yan pondered for a moment, and then said to Xiao Wenxin, "Wenxin, have you ever heard of 'Nan Ke Yimeng'?"

"Nan Ke Yimeng?" Xiao Wenxin was well-read, but the name felt very unfamiliar. She shook her head at the moment.

"Where is the beautiful dream of yellow sand?"

Xiao Wenxin still shook her head

It's bad now. Li Yan originally wanted to use these two stories to find a past explanation for his own affairs. But unexpectedly, Xiao Wenxin had never heard of any of them. Li Yan didn't know that the two stories he had appeared in the middle of the Tang Dynasty. Of course, no one had heard of them during the Zhenguan period.

"Where is Zhuangsheng Mengdie?" Li Yan racked his brains and finally found another related one

"Well, I know this, from "Zhuangzi? Qiwu Lun"" After finally hearing someone who understood what it means, Xiao Wenxin nodded immediately and said

"Okay, Zhuang Sheng dreamed of a butterfly, but when he woke up, he didn't know if Zhuang Zhou turned into a butterfly in his dream or if the butterfly dreamed that he turned into Zhuang Zhou? Most people saw this article and probably thought that Zhuang Zi made up this story to propose a philosophical proposition of dreams and reality, but in fact they didn't know that the dreams turned into reality and the reality turned into dreams is not just in people's imagination. But I, King Li Yan of Liang, encountered this kind of thing..."

Next, Li Yan used Zhuang Sheng's dream of butterfly as the basis, Guan Zhen and half false fabricated a very reasonable story for himself. The general idea is that when he was beaten by Cheng Huailiang, he had a very long but extremely real dream. In his dream, he came to a world completely different from the Tang Dynasty. His identity changed from a prince to an ordinary person, and then he studied in that world, grew up, even fell in love, established a career, etc. Until one day, he suddenly woke up from the dream, but found that he had only been in a coma for half a day, but the dream seemed to have been decades. The common sense and talents he showed were all learned from that dream world.

"A moment of life, a thousand years in a dream?" Xiao Wenxin was also shocked by Li Yan's half-true story. After a long time, he murmured to himself that with her common sense and intelligence, it was not very difficult to understand Li Yan's words. It was just that this matter was too mysterious, but this explanation just could explain the various special features that Li Yan showed. In addition to the allusion of Zhuang Sheng's dream of butterfly, Xiao Wenxin could not believe it.

"Wenxin, this is all my secret. I can only tell you about this. I have never told you other people, even the father and mother." Li Yan spread his hands and said with a wry smile that the bitter smile on his face was not pretending, because as he was just talking, he suddenly thought of a question: Did he really come from Li Tian who came from later generations? Or was he originally Li Yan, and Li Tian in later generations was just a character in Li Yan's dream. For a moment, Li Yan was also surrounded by the stories he made up, and he couldn't tell who he was?

Hearing that she was the only person who knew this secret, Xiao Wenxin immediately showed a sweet smile on her face. She was able to share the secret with her closest person. This is a dream that every girl has, and Xiao Wenxin is no exception. Therefore, now her heart is filled with happiness and can no longer tolerate anything else.

"Husband, no matter what you have experienced or what you have done before, Wen Xin only knows that you are my husband now, and you are also the one who Wen Xin stays with you for the rest of your life." Xiao Wenxin put his cheek on Li Yan's shoulder and closed his eyes gently and said.

Hearing Xiao Wenxin's confession, Li Yan was also shocked. He, who had just been entangled with his identity, immediately woke up: Yes, I am me, the unique me in this world, no matter what the hell is Li Tian and Li Yan, as long as you live happily, you can make the people around you feel happy.

After understanding this principle, Li Yan laughed happily twice, turned his head to look at Xiao Wenxin leaning on his shoulder, and the beauty looked like jade under the candlelight, which made him unable to help but bow his head and kiss Wenxin, which immediately attracted a wave of shyness from the beauty.

On the day Li Yan returned to Ning, something happened in the court because of a not-so-big thing that caused quarrels among some ministers in the court, and even almost started fighting in the court.

This matter is very simple. First, the patent officer Li Yifu submitted a memorial, which reported that because the application scope of carbohydrate is becoming more and more widespread, the importance of carbohydrate is also highlighted, so the court is asked to increase carbohydrate taxes. At the same time, the private Carbonifer Industry Association provides coke for iron smelting at a low price to the Ministry of Industry, and also helps to improve the process of smelting steel, which has made great contributions to the court. Therefore, he wrote a letter to request that in order to reward this behavior, taxes on mines under the Carbonifer Industry Association can be reduced and exempted from taxes on mines under the Carbonifer Industry Association.

As soon as this memorial was released, represented by Duan Lun, ministers related to the interests of the Carboniferous Industry Association were their wings, and they immediately agreed. However, several people who were close to the Wang family in Taiyuan and even from the Wang family in Taiyuan immediately jumped out to object, accusing Li Yifu of being instructed and scolding those who supported him for using power to seek personal gain.

However, these opposing people were too weak and had no effect at all. Moreover, Duan Lun came out to refute the facts that Li Yifu reported were all facts, and he had no interest in Carboniferous, so he scolded the other party for being accused and caused an old man to faint, causing an uproar in the court. Both parties almost took action.

Li Shimin knew this, but it was his usual policy to support Xing nobles and suppress the aristocratic families. Finally, he happily agreed to Li Yifu's memorial, and added another 10% of the tax on the basis of the original carbohydrate tax. The Carbonifer Industry Association made great contributions and reduced 30% of the tax for 50 years.

As soon as this policy was issued, before it could reach Taiyuan City, the Taiyuan Wang family was stunned by another very unfavorable news. This news does not seem to be very serious, but if it is handled improperly, it will definitely hit the reputation of the Taiyuan Wang family. Moreover, the news spread throughout Taiyuan City within one day, and someone was deliberately spreading it.
