After reading Mrs. Lu's information, Lin Wanwan exited the file and clicked on the web page to check the major events recorded in the four years of Zhenguan.
In the first month of this year, the military god Li Jing led 3,000 cavalry, braved the wind and snow and penetrated hundreds of miles alone. He defeated the Eastern Turks in Wuyang Ridge, killed Jieli Khan's wife, Princess Yicheng of the Sui Dynasty, and captured Yang Guang's wife, Empress Xiao, and others.
Sun Yang Zhengdao.
This series of devastating achievements destroyed Jie Li's fighting spirit, and he hurriedly sent an envoy to Chang'an to surrender to Li Shimin and beg for mercy, expressing his willingness to move to the inner region. Li Shimin was overjoyed and sent Tang Jian as an envoy to discuss the surrender with Jie Li.
At this time, the military god Li Jing made another decisive decision to kill and annihilate the Eastern Turks in one fell swoop, taking advantage of the opponent's indolence and carelessness, completely erasing their traces on the map and eliminating hidden dangers.
After receiving the battle report, Li Shimin and Li Yuan's father and son settled their old feud and granted amnesty to the whole country. They also summoned the ministers and clan members Dao Lingyan Pavilion to have a carnival for several days, where they played the pipa and danced and had fun with the people.
The peerless beauty Empress Xiao, Xiao Chong's direct aunt, was also brought back to Chang'an and lived a very long life until she was over eighty years old.
Seeing this, Lin Wanwan touched her chin and remembered many unofficial records that Li Shimin would accept Empress Xiao.
However, calculating her age, Queen Xiao should be almost sixty years old at this time, while Li Shimin is only in his thirties. Even if Queen Xiao was once so magnificent, she is now old. How can she still attract Li Shimin?
I guess this is the curiosity of the literati. I write this kind of unofficial history just to satisfy my desire for gossip and gain attention to smear Li Shimin and Empress Xiao.
Anyway, Lin Wanwan didn't believe it. You must know that Li Shimin also married Yang Guang's daughter as Yang Fei. It would be too despicable to accept Empress Xiao again. The emperor, who has all the beauties in the world, would not be so obsessed with beauty, and Empress Changsun is still here.
.
"Queen Xiao, alas, Princess Yicheng was kind to her, and now she was killed by Li Jing... No wonder her half-brother, Xiao Chong's grandfather Xiao Yu, went to court to impeach Li Jing. It's a pity that she didn't understand Li Shimin's intentions.
In July, I will be removed from the imperial censorship and will no longer participate in government affairs. I will only be given the title of Prince and Young Master, and my real power will be gone."
Lin Wanwan murmured a comment to herself, and then thought: I wonder if her grandfather's dismissal will affect Xiao Chong. It probably won't. After all, it might be a good thing that the emperor is far away. A family has always been a good thing.
There shouldn't be too many powerful people to make people fearful. Xiao Chong's grandfather has to retreat, so that the descendants can come up.
The series of events caused by the Eastern Turks in the four years of Zhenguan are the biggest historical events.
The famous prime minister Du Ruhui died of illness and Xiao Chong's grandfather Xiao Yu was deposed. These two events will also change the power class in Chang'an, but they are far away and cannot affect me.
In addition, floods and droughts continue as usual. Fortunately, Jiangnan, especially Luang County, this generation is lucky enough to have no natural disasters.
After reading the general information, Lin Wanwan took a long stretch, relaxed a lot, and went back to continue farming and create her own peach blossom garden.
As for whether to remind Xiao Chong about this matter, she just thought about it for a second and then put it aside.
Not to mention that the bosses have always had strong personalities and cannot be changed easily. Even if they change, it may not be a good thing. Anyway, the grandfather has resigned, although the Xiao Chong family will suffer some influence in Chang'an. But in Jiangnan, they can't.
The Lingxiao family is still the number one family, deeply rooted and has nothing to fear.
Moreover, with Xiao Chong's own ability, he could fully control the power of Luan County, otherwise he would not be able to carry out such a large project as its mountain weir.
Lin Wanwan doesn't understand politics, so it's better not to get involved and to be her farmer happily is the right thing to do.
Opening the door, Lin Wanwan clicked on the map and walked towards the department store near the hotel, intending to buy modern cosmetics such as foundation to be brought to Datang.
Lin Wanwan decided to try the cosmetics reselling market in the circle of the Xiao family's cousins first, not only to make money, but more importantly, to gain access to the female relatives of the upper class and obtain many hidden benefits.
This kind of monopoly business can make huge profits and solidify one's status in the social circle.
It took Lin Wanwan nearly two hours to read and check the information. When she walked to the mall, it was already ten o'clock in the morning, the door opened, and there were not many customers inside. Lin Wanwan did not delay, and went straight to the cosmetics area, and found her favorite
s brand.
Foundation is easier to repackage, and it is also the cosmetic that gives the fastest makeup effect. It is a must-buy. Loose powder is also good, so you must buy it too.
The powders used by ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty now contain high lead content. Although the nobles do not use powders with high lead content, the ones they use are made from medicinal materials and pearls, and their beauty and makeup effects are not as good as those made in modern times.
good.
Lin Wanwan buys these and sells them to Datang, so she has absolutely no worries about the market.
You can also buy some skin care lotions, lotions, and essences, which are easy to pack. Skin care products made with modern technology are definitely more effective than those from Datang.
The brands selected by Lin Wanwan received a big customer early in the morning, and the store clerk was so happy that she could only bow and say thank you like a store clerk in an island country shopping mall.
When walking out carrying several large bags of skin care products, Lin Wanwan also received a lot of contact information from the counter girl, although it was of little use to her. She will definitely buy mainly online in the future. After all, cross-border e-commerce is very developed now, Koala
The prices on some imported websites are much more affordable than buying in shopping malls, and they can exempt you from a lot of taxes.
After buying cosmetics and skin care products, she also bought a box of Lindt chocolates that Xiao Qingyu loved to eat. After returning to the hotel and putting everything away, Lin Wanwan went out to look at the house she had made an appointment with online.
Since she was going to live in Qiantang for a month, she must find a secluded and quiet community in modern times to stay. The hotel was only a temporary emergency.
That is to say, Yucheng has now become a quasi-first-tier city and has implemented real estate purchase restrictions. Otherwise, Lin Wanwan would really like to buy a lake-view house by the local West Lake.
The West Lake is so beautiful, and it is also Lin Wanwan's ideal place to live. Bai Juyi served as governor here for three years, and he never forgot it after he left. He also left an eternally famous poem:
To the north of Gushan Temple and to the west of Jia Pavilion, the water surface is initially flat and the clouds are low.
In several places, early orioles compete for warmth in the trees, while new swallows peck at the spring mud.
The random flowers are gradually enchanting the eyes, and only Asakusa has no horse hooves.
My favorite lake is eastward, with green poplar shades and white sand embankment.
The rental house Lin Wanwan looked at online was in a single apartment building by the West Lake. She chose the 21st floor, and after making an appointment with the agent, they went to see the house together.
When Lin Wanwan arrived at the gate of the single apartment, the agent was already waiting with the landlord. When they saw Lin Wanwan wearing a mask, their eyes flashed with surprise.
Beauty is like this, even a mask can't seal her appearance.
