Li Zhi ran over quickly, "Brother-in-law has been promoted!"
The child is ignorant, so he happily came to congratulate him. He almost became a fat man after living in Lishan. Now that he has been in the palace for a year, he seems to have lost some weight.
Not to mention whether he was promoted or not, Li Shimin's appointment was more like a smooth move.
Zhang Yang frowned and said, "After His Highness Prince Jin returned to the palace, did he become picky about food again?"
Li Zhi frowned and said, "I'm not picky about food. It's the palace cooks who don't cook well. The braised pork made by those cooks doesn't taste good. They can't even make fish soup."
Seeing the unhappy look on his face, Zhang Yang patiently advised: "You can't be picky about food, either. It's the most critical time for you to grow."
Li Zhi shook his head disdainfully, "Brothers and sisters said it was not delicious."
Dealing with children who are picky eaters has always been a headache. If we say that Li Zhi was a picky eater, he attributed the problem to the fact that the cooks in the palace did not cook delicious food.
During these days in Lishan, I have cultivated the appetites of these younger brothers and sisters.
Zhang Yang said seriously: "Your Highness, Prince Jin, if you don't eat enough, you will easily lose height. If you eat meat but not vegetables, you will become fat."
Hearing this, Li Tai said unhappily: "But the food in the palace is really not delicious. If we stay in Lishan all the time, we can have enough to eat."
Hearing his sophistry, Zhang Yang looked a little more serious.
Seeing his brother-in-law's face, Li Zhi lowered his head guiltily, "I understand. I will eat well in the palace from now on."
Zhang Yang nodded and said, "Okay, let's go play. Don't ask too much about my brother-in-law."
"Um."
Li Tai responded and turned around to leave.
Li Yue saw this scene and saw that her husband took good care of his younger brothers and sisters. However, when it came to food, both his aunt's and her husband's cooking were always very meticulous. This was not something that the palace cooks could compare with.
Being accustomed to the food at home, Li Yue could count the number of times she had eaten in the palace on one hand, and she had no idea what the food in the palace was like.
In short, the cooking skills at home are the hard work of the whole family. How can it be learned easily? Li Yue feels that it is very difficult for him to learn well just by controlling the heat. In addition to simple eating, he basically has no skills in cooking more complex dishes.
In a state of giving up.
Looking at her younger siblings playing skipping rope carefree, she whispered: "How wonderful it is now."
Zhang Yang said worriedly: "They are all your father's children. The beauty they have now will have a crueler reality waiting for them in the future. We will have more things to deal with in the future. Your father is not a good person."
"
Li Yue smiled softly, "In the future, my brothers and sisters will have to rely more on you as my brother-in-law. When I came here, I heard from the palace maid who came with me that Gao Yang has always been dissatisfied with the wives of the Imperial College, and even played tricks on one of his wives."
"How did you tease me?"
With a sigh, Li Yue asked: "I said that I poured a basin of hot water in when someone was going to the toilet."
Looking at these younger brothers and sisters, they are all His Majesty's sons. No one dares to stop them from running amok.
As a brother-in-law, I feel even more tired now.
After the children finished playing, Li Yue arranged exams for them. He also asked the school to test the learning achievements of his younger siblings last year, and consolidate them so that they could enter the learning state in advance.
This is a good way to consolidate knowledge, but the results of the exam are not satisfactory.
At night, Zhang Yang spread bedding on the ground.
Xiao Qingqing has been sleeping with her mother these days. She lay on the bed and blinked curiously, "Why does daddy sleep on the floor?"
Zhang Yang lay down comfortably, "The happiest thing is that I can sleep comfortably."
The snoring of the bear at home was so excruciating that after I stopped sleeping in the study room, I felt that all the symptoms of my fever had disappeared.
"Daddy, why don't you sleep on the bed?"
The daughter asked again. Li Yue was correcting the test papers of his younger siblings. He looked back at his daughter and smiled unconsciously.
Zhang Yang closed his eyes and whispered: "When the baby in your mother's belly is born, daddy can go back to bed and sleep."
"Yeah!" Xiao Qingqing nodded heavily, "My brother should be born soon."
It may not be his younger brother. Zhang Yang closed his eyes and his consciousness began to blur, and he fell into a drowsy sleep.
The next day, when I got up early in the morning, just before dawn, the two aunts cooked a large table of meals.
The two aunts came from the palace, and taking care of the princess and princes is what they should do. Now that they have been together for a long time, in the eyes of their younger siblings, the two aunts are different from other maids in the palace.
It is more like getting along with the elders. The daughter-in-law has become the leader of the younger brothers and sisters. If they all listen to the imperial sister Li Lizhi in the palace, they all listen to Li Yue in Lishan.
Li Yue treats these two aunts like family members, and naturally her younger brothers and sisters also treat these two aunts as their elders.
In the early morning, Zhang Yang went for a run, went for a winter swim in Huaqing Pool twice, and changed his clothes before his brothers and sisters woke up.
It is still an early morning in winter, and the morning light is just right today. The entire Lishan Mountain looks a little hazy in the sun, and the twigs and cypress branches in the pine forest are covered with frost and dew.
The sky is as clear as a blue, and taking a deep breath of fresh air makes you feel particularly happy.
Being an official is a very complicated matter, especially the complicated political machine of the Tang Dynasty. To understand its operation, in addition to the current laws of the Tang Dynasty, you also need to understand many of its internal unwritten regulations.
My daughter-in-law can't describe what exactly the minister of the Taifu Temple has to do. She knows the unwritten rules of the court from her aunt, or from the discussions of the palace people when she was a child.
If you want to gain experience and find the direction, you still need to ask someone who understands this kind of thing.
Zhang Yang casually walked down the mountain and saw the King of Hejian County who was catching a few puppies. It was obviously unreliable to ask him about this kind of thing.
Seeing that the courtyard door of the teacher's house was already open, Zhang Yang walked towards the teacher's house.
There was still some frost in the early morning in Lishan Mountain. Zhang Gongjin woke up early and sat in his wheelchair looking at the book in his hand.
Zhang Yang first said hello to his wife who was cleaning up the house, then looked at the teacher and said, "Teacher woke up really early."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Well, going to bed early and getting up early is a good habit." He lowered his head and still looked at the academy, whispering back.
When his wife brought the meal, Zhang Yang quickly waved his hand and said, "Auntie, I've already used the meal."
"No one comes around the house usually, so please take another bite."
"Thank you, Master."
Zhang Yang picked up a bowl of millet porridge and drank it.
Zhang Gongjin ate a piece of cake and drank a mouthful of porridge. He also needed salted duck eggs to eat, "Your Majesty wants you to be the minister of Taifu Temple?"
After finishing the porridge in the bowl in one breath, Zhang Yang put down his bowl and chopsticks and sat upright and said seriously: "This disciple has always wondered how to be the minister of Taifu Temple."
Zhang Gongjin smiled and said: "The official position of Tai Fuqing is quite special among the nine temples. Rather than saying that the Ministry of Households is in charge of land tax and household registration, it is better to say that Tai Fuqing is in charge of food."
"After all, they ask me to take care of money and food."
"That's right." Zhang Gongjin finished the food in the bowl, picked up the remaining half of the cake, and ate it slowly, "As the Crown Prince, you must understand that it is not just about silver and grain."
After saying that, Zhang Gongjin knocked on the dining table in front of him with his knuckles, "Do you see what's on the dining table?"
"There's porridge, pancakes, salted duck eggs, and some pickles."
Zhang Gongjin nodded and said: "This is what the Taifu Qing has to do. What you have to look at is the dining table of the Tang Dynasty. What is more or less on the dining table is what you care about most."
Youdao is that the emperor is the highest level of the power system of the Tang Dynasty. You can do whatever the emperor wants you to do.
Sometimes you still have to think about the implicit meaning of what the emperor wants you to do, how to do it, and how to do it.
Not to mention that the current Li Shimin is no longer the emperor he was just a few years ago when he ascended the throne. Li Shimin holds the power of the world.
"but……"
Zhang Gongjin thought for a long time and took a deep breath, "I heard that Your Majesty has taken control of the salt lake in Tubo?"
"Yes, this happened a few years ago."
"Well, that's it." Zhang Gongjin finished the pancake in his hand, "After these years of accumulation, Your Majesty already has a lot of fine salt in his hands. As the Crown Prince, you must understand the price of salt in the Central Plains.
condition."
"This kind of thing is not easy to deal with."
Zhang Yang looked troubled.
Zhang Gongjin smiled and said: "You don't need to worry about these things. You just need to report what you see and the situation. The Ministry of Secretariat will discuss it with His Majesty, as well as the six ministries of the Central Committee and the Central Committee. You don't need to worry about it."
He pushed the wheels of his wheelchair and walked to another table in the yard. There was already a bowl of boiled medicine here. He slowly drank a sip and said: "Your Majesty has rewarded several other ministers in the Ministry of Rites, but only for yours."
The reward is an understatement, I guess it has ulterior motives."
Zhang Yang looked solemn and remained silent for a moment, "His Majesty and I have a dispute, and His Majesty owes me money."
Hearing this, Zhang Gongjin smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if you are a little confused. His Majesty's deeper intention is to let you not worry about other things. You don't need to worry about the matters of Shangshu Province and Zhongshu Province. You only need to take care of what you should do now."
thing."
"The implication is that you should stop caring about other things. This is also a kind of care for you. You should understand His Majesty's painstaking efforts. Since you can take care of money and food, then sit down in the position of Taifu Qing and take good care of the people of the Central Plains.
Just the dining table.”
"Thank you teacher for the tip."
After the teacher's analysis, Zhang Yang felt that his thinking had become much clearer, "His Majesty wants to both isolate me and make use of my remaining value."
He sighed with emotion and said: "Your Majesty's intentions are really sinister."
"Sinister?" Zhang Gongjin smiled and said, "Your Majesty is still kind. At least you are still alive."
"With my teacher's good words, I may live a few more years."
Zhang Yang pushed the teacher's wheelchair out of the house and wandered around the village. From a distance, he saw Li Tai walking with Cen Wenwen.
Zhang Gongjin said: "I can come by myself and go see that old guy Ouyang Xun."
Having become very proficient in using the wheelchair, Zhang Gongjin walked in another direction, looking at the teacher's back, which always made her unhappy.
Lishan's care was very thorough, and the team of doctors in Sun Simiao's hands were constantly discussing the teacher's condition, but they could not reverse his deteriorating health.
Birth, aging, illness and death are natural cycles, which are irreversible.
In this current era of backward medical technology, where the lesions cannot be removed and surgery is not possible, it is not easy for the teacher to survive until now.
Seeing Li Tai walking towards here with Cen Wenwen, Zhang Yang calmed down and saluted with his hands in his hands: "Brother Wenwen, how are you doing lately?"
Cen Wenwen also returned the greeting and said: "I heard that Zhang Shilang is now in charge of Taifu Temple and is also the minister of Shangshu Province. I would like to congratulate Shilang Zhang."
"Brother Wenwen said this to take pleasure in others' misfortune?"
"Shilang Zhang must have misunderstood." Cen Wenwen said with a smile on his face, "Before, the official always harmed Shilang Zhang, and now he says that the official is gloating about his misfortune? What is Shilang Zhang's intention?"
Zhang Yang clasped his hands and said melancholy: "I'm used to being suspicious."
Cen Wenwen took the file in his hand and said: "Xiaguan is the supervisor of Lishan Winery. Naturally, he wanted to see how the wine was brewed, so he brought the file to record before the start of the court. I also asked His Highness the King of Wei to lead the way.
After I finish my business in Lishan, I have to go to Chongdefang."
Li Tai quickly said: "Servant Cen, please come here."
The two of them continued walking quickly, with Zhang Yang following behind. As the sun rose, Lishan Mountain began to get warmer.
Zhang Yang followed suit, "I have something to ask Brother Wen for help."
"Xiaguan and Zhang Shilang are officials in the same dynasty, so if you have anything to say, just say it."
"Then let me tell you the truth. Brother Wenwen is also the Secretary Supervisor. Now the Secretary Supervisor must still be storing the money and grain files for crops in various places."
"It is indeed stored, and the crop conditions over the years will be recorded in the files."
"Am I, the Crown Prince, now officially appointed by His Majesty?"
"Well, the Ministry of Civil Affairs already made a register yesterday."
Cen Wenwen stopped for a moment and said, "If Mr. Zhang wants to see it, he can go to the secretary to get it."
"If I could go to the court to get the files, I wouldn't ask Brother Wen for help here." Zhang Yang said melancholy: "I have a disease, which is the same as His Highness the King of Wei. I will vomit when I go to Chang'an City.
.”
Seeing Cen Wenwen's complete disbelief, Zhang Yang could only say: "Lishan is at the most important stage of development. I have to focus on technical research and production construction, and I really can't leave."
"In this case, I will help Zhang Shilang and send the file after I return."
"It's time to work."
You have to be sincere when getting along with others, and tell the truth to Cen Wenwen, and he will be convinced. Some people can be fooled, but it would be a bit disrespectful for someone as serious as Brother Wenwen to fool him.
Three days later, the great court meeting in the court officially began. This year is the eleventh year of Zhenguan, and the Khan issued several more decrees. At the great meeting, Wei Zheng proposed to the Khan to intensify the education strategy of Tubo, so as to deal with the Turks now.
The educational strategy was then used on the Tubo people.
In the past, envoys from the Foreign Affairs Council were constantly sent to Tubo to lobby. Long before Songtsen Gampo came to the Tang Dynasty, many Tang blowers were cultivated in Tubo.
And Songtsen Gampo came to the Tang Dynasty alone, which once again gathered the hearts of the Tibetan people.
But this cohesion was only temporary. When the Tubo people knew that Songtsan Gampo was living well in Chang'an City, Tian Khan treated their Zangpu favorably.
The Tubo people who originally wanted to admire the Tang Dynasty appeared again, and they talked about the beauty of the Tang Dynasty, which made more people's hearts admire the Tang Dynasty.
