Chapter 298 The attraction of love stories to women
"I heard that Qingque has just returned to the palace to see Your Majesty?" Empress Changsun said in a low voice.
"He replied to me about the governance this time." Li Shimin felt much better when he saw the face of the infant Sizi, and the emperor had a smile on his face again.
You have to be cautious and cautious when speaking in front of your father. I have learned a lesson this time and will be even more cautious in the future.
After returning to his mansion, Li Tai was in a good mood.
A group of servants from the mansion were waiting on him.
"Your Highness, King Wei, please sit down."
"His Royal Highness the King of Wei, the tea has just been brewed."
"His Royal Highness, King Wei, do you need to pinch your legs?"
…
Since childhood, Li Tai feels that the biggest thing he has done is to control snow disasters and enjoy the enjoyment of his servants. "Do you know why this king has achieved such great achievements?"
"Because His Royal Highness the King of Wei is the brother-in-law?"
A servant said something very inappropriate and inappropriate.
Li Tai snorted coldly: "That's because I have a righteous spirit."
"Yeah……"
Several servants had smiling faces. For them, whatever His Highness the King of Wei said was right. As long as the King of Wei became famous, the servants in the mansion would also follow suit. From now on, everyone would have dignity when walking on Zhuque Street. Whenever they heard
He is a servant of Prince Wei's palace, who dares not to give him some face?
Li Tai cleared his throat again: "Having the right path is an unparalleled blessing, but actually there are also bad things."
"No matter how bad things happen, there is no greater contribution than King Wei."
"Now many people in Chang'an City are talking about King Wei's contribution."
"That's right, there's nothing bad going on."
Li Tai nodded and said, "I'm relieved if you can say that. In fact, it's not a big deal. It's just that the Lishan Factory spent too much this time, and our income from Prince Wei's Mansion will stop again in the future."
The smiles on everyone's faces froze. When the income stopped, everyone's wages would stop.
Li Tai took a sip of tea and said, "Why don't you say anything?"
Everyone had a grimace and said nothing. They had just had a few good days, and now they said they had no progress...
What a downturn in life.
Li Tai said with emotion: "You told me about you, look at your appearance, and you said that no matter how bad things happen, they are not as big as this king's contribution. Why are they all grimacing and silent now?"
Everyone was silent and lowered their heads.
"Hypocrisy, it's all too hypocritical!"
After Li Tai said this, he left and returned to his room, intending to sleep again.
On the other side of Chang'an City, Chang Sun Chong was sitting in his mansion, listening to the compliments of the literati in the mansion.
"It's all thanks to Master Changsun's precautions that the people of Bashui were able to save their fields from this snow disaster."
"Young Master Changsun knows things like a god."
"Compared with the hasty response between the DPRK and the central government, the best arrangement is for Mr. Changsun to plan in advance and in an orderly manner."
"Although the imperial court only gave an official position to a provincial civil servant, he will definitely achieve greater achievements in the future."
…
Changsun Chong was annoyed when he heard the compliments from these people. He slapped his gum and shouted: "Get out of here!"
Everyone then stopped talking and left one after another.
After the surroundings calmed down, Changsun rushed to pour a drink into his mouth. This time he went to Bashui to repair the river channel half a month ago. He thought he could get things done just by pretending.
Unexpectedly, the road was blocked due to heavy snow. If it hadn't been for the decree issued by the government, even I would not have known that the matter was so serious.
Fortunately, manpower was arranged in time, otherwise the fields downstream of Ba Shui would probably suffer this time.
All the credit for what happened this time goes to Lishan and King Wei.
Now that the prince doesn't want to see him, Changsun Chong feels extremely frustrated. He is just a small provincial civil servant?
Changsun Chong smiled bitterly, this was not a reward at all, it was just his father's arrangement.
As the snow melted, the city of Chang'an gradually gained vitality. People were coming and going on Zhuque Street under the sunshine. Lu Dongzan looked at the bustling street and said, "I understand, if it hadn't been for the introduction by the Ministry of Rites, Shilang Zhang would not have met me at all.
"
The snowstorm was over and the court was quiet again. Xu Jingzong sat by the street and squinted at the sun, "In the past, Shilang Zhang served in the Ministry of Rites, so naturally he could see envoys like you at any time. But things are different now. Now Shilang Zhang works in the East Palace.
"
"Beside the Crown Prince, Zhang Shilang must have a higher status."
Xu Jingzong smiled and said: "That is the crown prince, the future emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Do you think his status will be low?"
Lu Dongzan nodded and said: "Zan Pu said at the beginning that Zhang Yang is a person who cannot be underestimated. Now it is indeed true. Zhang Yang's position in the court is getting higher and higher."
To say that the Tubo people's understanding of the court is too one-sided.
Zhang Yang was indeed a close minister of the prince, but in any case he was serving in the East Palace and had no actual official position in the court.
[A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old version of the source-changing app, huanyuanapp, that is used by all chasing bugs.]
He is completely different from the former Minister of Rites.
Xu Jingzong sighed: "Then Tubo admits that the spy in Lishan was arranged by your Zanpu?"
Lu Dongzan said: "I told you, it was all a misunderstanding."
No matter what he said, he would only answer this way. No matter how he was questioned about the investigation of Lishan, even if those informants admitted it, Songtsan Gampo and Ludongtsan would not admit it.
Anyway, there were also informants from the Ministry of Rites in Tubo, so Xu Jingzong ignored this matter for the time being and regarded it as an even deal.
"The Tang Dynasty was able to quell the snow disaster in two days, which is really remarkable. We in Tubo cannot do such a thing."
Xu Jingzong said lazily: "Tubo is Tubo, and the Tang Dynasty is the Tang Dynasty. Your Tubo tribes are composed of tribes, and they are scattered in terms of people's hearts. Now those tribes are willing to obey Songtsen Gampo, and maybe they will be the same in the future.
.”
"It seems you know us very well."
"Only you can understand the Tang Dynasty? Can't the Tang Dynasty understand Tubo? We in the Central Plains never do anything that favors one over the other."
"I admire you."
"Each other."
After another long silence, Lu Dongzan asked: "When will the Ministry of Rites take me to see Mr. Zhang?"
"Now is the period of recess. Except for necessary matters, everyone is resting and waiting for the New Year. Likewise, Zhang Shilang will not mention the matter of meeting Zhang Shilang until New Year's Eve."
"Then just wait."
Xu Jingzong glanced at him. This Lu Dongzan was not in a hurry. In fact, he was worried about whether Zhang Shilang would see him. Even he had not seen him for a long time.
Looking at the blue sky, I thought to myself, Mr. Zhang, you can't ignore the Ministry of Etiquette. We have done so many things behind our backs, so you can't ignore it.
Xu Jingzong was also very melancholy, and he was afraid that one day he would not be able to bear it anymore.
On a rare sunny day, Zhang Yang bought a lot of meat and vegetables from Dongshi. This season is the season for stocking up on meat. Although there is no shortage of food at home, he still has to buy when he needs to, and he needs to look like he is celebrating the New Year.
The snowstorm has passed safely. Seeing that Li Shimin put a lot of effort into publicizing this matter, I think the result of this matter is very good.
The common people are grateful to the emperor, and their praise of the emperor is the simplest.
As long as Li Shimin thinks about the thousands of people, it will only be a matter of time before he wins the hearts and minds of the working people.
Zhang Yang was busy in the kitchen, putting in whole pieces of meat, cooking it, and marinating it to make bacon. The little bear loves to eat bacon. It is the time when it needs the most salt. It needs salt to make it grow.
big.
Li Yue handed the written question to Xiao Wu and asked her to finish it by herself.
"Something happened to the Bolingcui family recently."
"Does it have anything to do with us?"
I know that my husband never inquires about strange things outside. He is only interested in things that are useful to him. For example, my husband has been drawing drawings recently, saying that he wants to improve the production line.
Every night I devote myself to it.
And without any distractions.
Li Yue narrated in a low voice, "It was when someone from the Boling Cui family sent a message to Cui Renshi, a scholar in Chaozhong, that it was understood by others, and then spread, saying that there was a person in the Cui family's third room.
The second daughter, this woman fell in love with a servant in the family, and then wanted to leave with the servant and live together from then on."
Zhang Yang nodded while adding firewood to the earthen stove.
"Then this matter was discovered and people were sent to look for it." Li Yue said with a smile.
"What happened after that?"
"There was no news after that, and I don't know what happened. Master Cui Ren only knew this, and then he hurriedly wrote a letter home and sent it to the clan. Now we can only wait for news. I heard that the woman had read The Red Mansion
.”
Even though The Red Mansion is classified as a banned book, it is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In the Grand View Garden, which is filled with the darkness of people's hearts, it is difficult for kindness to survive.
Zhang Yang asked again: "Have they seen our Romance of the West Chamber?"
"I don't know. According to the speed of circulation of books on the market, I think they should come to Boling. If they really like this kind of story, some people will travel thousands of miles to see the stories in the book."
Love is a very mysterious feeling, and it is impossible for people to be without feelings.
Just like love is the emotion that has the greatest impact on people and can often determine their life-long events.
The Cui family's daughter's incident has also become a joke among people after dinner.
A woman from an aristocratic family has feelings for a villain.
This shows that no matter how large the aristocratic family is, they are still human beings and they will be controlled by their emotions.
Zhang Yang smiled and said: "The second half of The West Chamber can be printed."
Li Yue nodded and said: "What other stories are there besides Romance of the West Chamber?"
Putting a hand on his wife's shoulder, Zhang Yang said melancholy: "Daughter-in-law."
Li Yue blinked and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
"Your eyes are so clear, I can even see my own face through your holes."
Li Yue reached out and pinched the flesh of her husband's waist, "Let's get down to business."
Zhang Yang endured the pain and said, "Your screwing skills have improved a lot."
Smiling a little proudly, Li Yue put away her expression again and said, "Be careful not to burn the meat in the lake."
"From White Snake to Snow White, and then to Red Mansion, do you like this kind of desolate love story now?" Zhang Yang coughed and said again: "I admit that this kind of story is indeed very attractive."
"The story of Snow White is obviously very good, but you just made it up yourself."
"Actually, there is such a sad love story."
"what story?"
Zhang Yang struggled, "There is a story called Butterfly Lovers. They are all stories about opposing etiquette and breaking through the constraints and moving forward for love. Yes! That's right! For love."
Look at the confusion on Li Yue's face.
Zhang Yang thought: "From this time on, we will consider the story of Cui's daughter and keep up with the facts when writing articles. Let's write about Butterfly Lovers first."
Use storybooks to impact the etiquette of aristocratic families.
For the sake of love, there will be people who will risk their lives like flying fire to fight fire.
Zhang Yang asked in a low voice: "Daughter-in-law, do you think something like this happened to the daughter of the Cui family? If it were you..."
Seeing his wife's displeasure, Zhang Yang quickly explained: "I'm just making an analogy. If you were the daughter of the Cui family, what would you choose to do?"
Li Yue sat down and looked at the flames in the earthen stove, "I will take a long-term approach. First, I will kill the clan leader who opposes this matter, and support a person I can trust to be the next clan leader, and seize the new clan leader's leverage.
Blackmail him, and then I can be with the person I love."
The story is hopeless, but at least the reality is hopeful.
While talking about a horrifying conspiracy, she could still smile so brightly. Zhang Yang always felt that his daughter-in-law had changed, and she had changed a lot, and she had become more graceful.
Li Yue gave the story of The Romance of the West Chamber to Aunt Wang, who had already prepared it. She sent the story to the village so that it could be typeset and printed.
At night, Zhang Yang told Li Yue about Butterfly Lovers. In fact, the story of Butterfly Lovers is very simple, simpler than the complicated Dream of Red Mansions and Romance of the West Chamber.
But Butterfly Lovers is indeed a very tragic story about love.
At least Jia Baoyu is still alive in the Red Mansion.
In Romance of the West Chamber, at least one of the lovers ends up getting married.
While Zhang Yang was talking about Butterfly Lovers, Li Yue patiently described it. She wrote quickly and often practiced according to Ouyang Xun's copybooks. Her handwriting was also very beautiful, not like a girl's graceful writing, a bit like
It has the feeling of iron and silver hooks in men's writing, each stroke is clean and sharp.
Speaking of the persecution of Liang Zhu and Liang Zhu, Li Yue paused the pen in his hand, pursed his lips, calmed down and continued writing.
Until she wrote that Zhu Yingtai was wearing wedding clothes and passing by Liang Shanbo's grave, she put down the pen in her hand and wiped her tears, "How could there be such a story?"
The origin of the story of Butterfly Lovers is difficult to verify. Zhang Yang has read so many books on the Imperial College and Chongwen Palace but has not been able to find the story of Butterfly Lovers.
According to historical data, the story of Liang Zhu was also mentioned in the mid-Tang Dynasty.
Perhaps this is a story that has been circulated in fragments, and it was not really written down until later generations.
Zhang Yang looked at Li Yue's handwriting, and the story came to life on the paper.
Maybe it would be beneficial to let the story of Butterfly Lovers come out early, at least I can write down the whole story completely.
My daughter-in-law, who is usually decisive and never hesitates in handling things, actually cried.
She cried very sadly. The woman who usually would not show mercy even if she starves a bear for a whole day, now actually has such a weak side.
Li Yue wiped her tears and choked, "Zhu Yingtai and Liang Shanbo are suffering so much."
Zhang Yang admired it with satisfaction when he saw his wife crying. Li Yue has been a very strong girl since she was a child. She rarely sees her cry. The last time she cried was when her grandma passed away.
She was crying, but when she saw her husband, she didn't come to persuade her. She was indifferent and seemed to be admiring it. Li Yue wiped her tears, regained her composure instantly, and said, "What happens next, my husband will continue to tell you."
