Sometimes, the relationship between husband and wife is like this.
Whether it is to support each other or to support each other, while we need sweetness, we also need some temper to adjust the atmosphere and mood.
You are angry at me for my negligence, and I am angry at your carelessness.
You are jealous because I talk to several women, and I am angry because you did not prepare me delicious food for dinner today.
Later in the evening, Li Chengqian took his two daughters to the small square in front of the East Palace for a stroll.
To be honest, although they have moved into the East Palace now, the two girls have not visited the East Palace much. .??.
Firstly, due to rules, the two girls had to stay in the harem obediently.
Secondly, the East Palace is a place that attracts the most attention. As long as the two girls make some mistakes, it may be reported to the people in the streets tomorrow.
Instead of doing this, the two girls simply didn't go anywhere and waited obediently in the palace for Li Chengqian's return.
Today, Li Chengqian also satisfied the curiosity of the two daughters in one fell swoop.
Although the East Palace is within the Imperial Palace, in a certain sense, it is a smaller Imperial Palace.
Li Chengqian took the two girls around, walking from the harem to the gate of the East Palace, and then from the gate to the back garden of the East Palace.
Along the way, the three of them chatted and laughed, and the scene was very warm.
The only drawback was that no matter where they went, they were followed by a large number of servants and maids.
Although Li Chengqian was not accustomed to such scenes, he had already become accustomed to them.
However, for Su Qingling and Lu Wanjie, who had just entered palace life, it really took them some time to get used to it.
After all, the East Palace is the residence of the prince and prince, and everything must be done in accordance with the rules of the palace.
When entering and exiting the door, it is within the rules to shout and hug each other.
Even the concubines of the imperial palace would evaluate their status based on how many people they brought out.
Su Qingling felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by these people, so she said to Li Chengqian: "Can you tell them not to follow us?"
"how?" "Not used to it?"
Li Chengqian shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If you're not used to it, there's nothing you can do about it. This is the rule of the palace."
"If we don't let them follow us, what kind of rumors will spread by then."
Of course, Li Chengqian didn't like being followed by this group of people.
But what can be done?
He can't send all these people away, can he?
And even if you want to be dismissed, there must be a valid reason.
He couldn't tell these people directly that he wanted to have a quiet word with his wife and ask them to avoid it for the time being?
If this spreads outside, it might turn out that Li Chengqian is going to do something shameful with the Crown Princess.
There is a saying that people can't help themselves in the world.
And if you are in the court or the imperial court, you can't help yourself.
And don’t talk about him Li Chengqian.
Even Li Shimin still had to perform what he had to do every day according to ancient etiquette.
Why do you have to get up at the fifth watch to wash and change clothes? Before the sixth watch, you have to enter the palace and wait for the officials to visit you, etc.
To be honest, one of the reasons why Li Chengqian didn't want to be the prince was because he didn't want to follow these rules.
Rather than getting up early every day and having to deal with government affairs, wouldn't it be nice to be free and at ease outside?
Thinking of this, Li Chengqian couldn't help but sigh.
He gently stroked Su Qingling's back, then gently took her hand, and then Lu Wanjie's hand.
After looking at the two girls, Li Chengqian said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, just get used to it. Let's just pretend they don't exist."
After hearing this, Su Qingling glanced at Lu Wanjie beside her, her eyes a little helpless, but in the end she didn't say much.
As soon as you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea. This sentence is really true.
It's not empty talk...
…
After lingering with my wife.
Li Chengqian didn't rest for too long, and immediately threw himself into the intensive work.
As the prince now and living in the East Palace, he naturally has to handle many government affairs for Li Shimin.
And how could Li Shimin miss such an opportunity to shed his burden?
It is said that Li Chengqian trained his political debate skills and sent almost all the memorials compiled by Shangshu Province that day to Li Chengqian. ??
However, the imperial court now formed a cabinet at Li Chengqian's suggestion to share government affairs with the emperor and handle some unnecessary events.
But the territory of the Tang Dynasty was vast, and the things it had to deal with every day were even more huge and scary.
Even after the cabinet had screened them, the memorials were still piling up.
Looking at the hillside piled up with memorials in front of him, Li Chengqian also complained endlessly.
Is this something your own father can do?
Other fathers hold their sons on their heads for fear of falling, and hold them in their mouths for fear of melting.
But I am such a good guy, I wish I could tire myself to death right away.
But what can he do?
Now that Li Shimin has manipulated him, he can only accept his fate.
At first glance, this excerpt seems to have no beginning and no end, and it makes Li Chengqian want to scold him very much.
Reports on disasters in various places, reports on talent recommendations, and reports on good conditions in various places were all within reason, and Li Chengqian didn't say anything.
But why do you always report trivial things?
If someone's dog is lost and you find it, is this considered merit?
You have the nerve to report on the annihilation of a bandit den with less than ten people?
At the end, Li Chengqian also felt a little overwhelmed.
He looked directly at the little Chuzi who was playing with the candlestick next to him and said: "You guys don't You are playing with that little flame there, why don’t you come over and help me sift through the folds when you have time?”
Hearing this, Xiao Chuzi was stunned.
Immediately afterwards, he also showed a look of fear and said: "Your Highness, you are just destroying this slave. How can I have the qualifications to read the memorial..."
"How not?"
Li Chengqian threw a book to him and said, "Come, read it with me."
He is really troubled now. If Xiao Chuzi can help him deal with it, it will really save time and effort.
Unexpectedly, little Chuzi was so frightened that he knelt on the ground.
"Your Highness, this is absolutely impossible."
"If outsiders find out about this, I'm afraid I will be dragged out tomorrow to be interrogated and beheaded."
The little Chuzi looked straight at Li Chengqian and said, "I have grown up with you. You must not harm me..."
"Is it harming you if I ask you to read a memorial for me?"
As soon as he said these words, Li Chengqian was stunned.
Indeed, after the collapse of the Eastern and Western Han Dynasties due to the eunuchs.
Subsequent dynasties were very careful in appointing eunuchs.
Of course, this careful reference refers to the early Tang Dynasty.
Li Yuan once explicitly prohibited eunuchs from engaging in politics, let alone eunuchs from intervening in politics.
However, according to Li Chengqian's knowledge of history, in the middle and late Tang Dynasty, eunuchs often appeared in politics.
Even when the Tang Dynasty collapsed, the eunuchs made great contributions.
As expected, Li Chengqian has a good relationship with Xiao Chuzi, and they grew up together since childhood.
Naturally, he couldn't set a precedent.
After muttering a few words to himself, he could only lower his head and check the memorials and government affairs by himself.
And just as this guy was immersed in looking at it, a person suddenly walked in from outside.
The man smiled as he walked: "How about it, you feel the joy of being a prince..."
