Chapter 309: Returning to the Countryside

Qiao An and Li Zhongxuan also went to the City God Temple to make a wish, Li Zhongxuan hugged Shen Qiaoan and threw candy out of the wishing pool.

The two came out of the City God Temple, Shen Qiaoan saw that there was a wrist wrestling competition outside, and invited Li Zhongxuan to participate, Li Zhongxuan was infinitely powerful, defeated a lot of strong men in one go, and after winning, he got a gift, and everyone coaxed Li Zhongxuan to kiss Qiao An on the street.

Qiao An closed her eyes sweetly, and Li Zhongxuan kissed her face with a little water, and everyone was clamoring. After making a fuss, Qiao An took Li Zhongxuan to pinch the clay figurines, Shen Qiao'an's imitation ability was very good, and he soon made several lifelike clay figurines.

"Pinch a clay figure to be me, pinch a clay figure to be you, smash us, and then pinch them up, you have me, I have you." Qiao An looked at Li Zhongxuan with a grin.

This night, they played until the willow tops on the moon, and when they were finished, they forgot their tiredness, and the two found an inn to rest.

The next day, Li Zhongxuan didn't get up until after midnight, Shen Qiaoan looked at him with a smile, Li Zhongxuan hugged Qiao An, and Shen Qiaoan lay next to him, quietly listening to his heartbeat.

In the next few days, their main thing is how to play, they go to temple fairs, they go to some folk activities, and they also go to banquets for strangers to get married and have children.

This month, Shen Qiaoan basically had a new arrangement every day, and he was not lonely, and soon, a month passed.

Li Zhongxuan returned to the class department, and Empress Zhao saw Li Zhongxuan come back, but she never mentioned what she had promised before, and in the court, she was still in full swing.

The current little emperor, looking at Empress Zhao's face when he does everything, the situation has not improved in the slightest, and it has worsened than before, Li Zhongxuan is secretly anxious.

Above the court, General Cheng simply became dumb.

After experiencing those things before, he was already very disappointed in the Queen Mother, and suddenly one day, General Cheng reported a petition to go to patrol the city.

This is in the arms of the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother said with a smile: "There have been many riots outside in the past two years, the so-called strong wind started at the end of Qingping, and General Cheng patrolled the city, not to mention the common people of the imperial capital, and even the mourning family slept at night It was particularly sweet." ”

"That's good, the last general is gone." General Cheng already hated Empress Zhao's face, and he left the court.

Before, there were people in the court who helped Li Zhongxuan.

But with General Cheng's departure, his situation is even more awkward than before.

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu and the Queen Mother secretly discussed, preparing to stumble Li Zhongxuan, and the two chatted for most of the night, and finally came up with a ghost idea.

The Empress Dowager asked Mama to send the Ministry of Industry Shangshu out, but the Ministry of Industry Shangshu saw the emperor at the door of Yishou Palace, he bowed to the emperor with a bare waist, and then left.

"Your Majesty, how can he be so blind?" The eunuch next to him, Fusheng, frowned and pointed to the back of the departing figure.

The little emperor gritted his back molars, his face was tense, and he pointed to Yishou Palace, "Let's go, go see the queen mother." He also recently discovered the movements of Empress Zhao, who was constantly slapping Li Zhongxuan and dumping Li Zhongxuan.

He wants to stop curbing it, but he is afraid that the court situation will really be subverted in the hands of Empress Zhao, when Li Zhongxuan was in power, this group of people did not dare to do anything to him, and even treated him with respect, but now, there is no second person in the eyes of the courtiers except Empress Zhao.

Seeing the arrival of the little emperor at night, the queen mother smiled and touched the little emperor's cheek, "What are you doing here at the mourning house in the middle of the night?" ”

The Queen Mother said while asking people to prepare bird's nests, and picked up a rattle and gave it to the little emperor, "This gadget is something you always have to play with before going to bed when you are three years old. ”

She said happily, thinking of the sad place, tears rolled down, "The queen mother knows what you want to say, but in the future she will understand that the queen mother is for your good, the so-called great favor is a great hatred, the queen mother can't continue to make them bigger, all this is for your good." ”

The Empress Dowager took him into an army, and when the little emperor thought of the cold and damp cold palace back then, he couldn't help but feel compassion, and the words that had been brewing for a long time were swallowed back.

"Touch the rattle, Emperor." This night, Empress Zhao left the little emperor to rest in her palace, and said a lot of things like that in one night.

The little emperor was secretly surprised, and the next day, the morning dynasty said this to Fusheng, and after Fusheng heard it, he cleverly suggested two sentences.

In the early dynasty, the curtain was opened in full swing, and today on the court, the Ministry of Engineering Shangshu was ready to build a large number of buildings for the first emperor to build and love the imperial mausoleum.

After hearing this, Empress Zhao smiled, and immediately said: "Do you have such filial piety, but it's just 10,000 taels of gold." ”

When the Queen Mother said this, she gently pulled the red rope in her hand, and the other side of the red rope was tied to the little emperor's little thumb.

"You said that you used 10,000 taels of gold to build the imperial tomb of the first emperor? Didn't this imperial mausoleum be built for three months before the burial of the first emperor? Why are you building all this again? ”

The little emperor turned his eyes to look at Li Zhongxuan and asked, "What about the prince, what do you think?" He didn't dare to disobey the queen's will now, but he expected that he would, so he handed over the hot potato to Li Zhongxuan.

Li Zhongxuan has always been against extravagance and waste, the construction of the imperial tomb has already cost more than 100,000 beautiful gold, and now he wants to build the imperial tomb, he can't understand why the queen mother's eyes always see these ethereal things.

His Majesty thought that it was better to be frugal than to be extravagant. If Emperor Xianquan had knowledge, he was afraid that he would not agree with Empress Zhao that you were so extravagant and wasteful, and 10,000 taels of gold was not a small amount. Li Zhongxuan's attitude is very clear.

"Last night, the first emperor entered my dream and invited the mourning family to play around, and suddenly the mourning family heard the first emperor's teeth trembling, and the mourning family asked: Why is my emperor like this? The first emperor told the mourning family that the imperial tomb had entered the water, and today's Ministry of Industry Shangshu advocated the construction of the imperial mausoleum, isn't this exactly the same as the dream of the mourning family? Why did the prince have to hinder him from fulfilling his filial piety? ”

The Empress Dowager pointed to the Ministry of Works, who was kneeling on the ground.

The Ministry of Labor Shangshu nodded again and again.

"Queen Mother, the minister heard that there are dreams every day and night, this dream is just far-fetched, how can it be said that the wind is rain, I have never wasted silver on the dead like this." Li Zhongxuan's words were a bit excessive, and the Queen Mother sneered and stopped arguing.

But the next day, Empress Zhao didn't hang the curtains, it was said that she fell ill, and everyone went to see Empress Zhao, but Li Zhongxuan was indifferent, and Qiao An had no choice but to prepare something to see.

Empress Zhao's attitude towards Qiao An was cold, and it was not easy to get out, and Qiao An finally understood why General Cheng was disheartened by the imperial court.

Here, Li Zhongxuan tried his best to persuade the emperor to deal with the affairs of the court and politics, but the little emperor did not dare to take up ideas on major matters.

For a week, Empress Zhao did not appear, but Li Zhongxuan gradually alienated everyone, as if getting close to Li Zhongxuan was close to bad luck.

Li Zhongxuan was at a loss, and if this continued, there would be all kinds of endless disasters, so even Li Zhongxuan decided to resign.

Li Zhongxuan told Qiao An about this, and Qiao An said: "I also went to see Empress Zhao today, and Empress Zhao ignored me, and it is indeed impossible to go on like this." ”

In fact, she fully understands Li Zhongxuan's heart, and even more understands that Li Zhongxuan wants to leave only out of consideration for everyone's overall safety.

But Li Zhongxuan is an ambitious person, how can he just leave like this? Thinking of this, Joan began to use her brain.

"If you really resign, but in a year and a half, I will change my name and surname." Joan sighed.

"What does that have to do with me?" Li Zhongxuan sighed.

"You're being angry, I don't think you should get too bad with a woman, I have a suggestion here that husband and wife should listen to it, if you think it's a good idea, let's do it like this! If you think it's a bad idea, then it's up to me to say nothing. ”

Qiao An said his views and thoughts, and after Li Zhongxuan heard it, he gently hugged Qiao An and rubbed Qiao An's head with his chin.

"Joan, after you married me, you have lived such a ridiculous life, and now I have a guilty conscience when you encounter such a thing." Li Zhongxuan held Qiao An's hand, but it was Shen Qiao An, and she smiled softly.

"As long as I am with you, no matter where I am, no matter what I do, the concubine is happy, you have a good rest tonight, you will go to Zhao Hou tomorrow to talk about this, she is only afraid that she will not be able to sleep well tomorrow."

"Out of sight, out of mind, that's it, that's it." Li Zhongxuan sighed.

That night, Joan began to tidy up and change her clothes.

On the second day, after Zhao was still not seen in the morning, the court was only discussing some small things, these trivial things Li Zhongxuan did not say a word, and he had never participated in these things before.

In the afternoon, Li Zhongxuan went to Yishou Palace to "deliver Ruyi", and Empress Zhao saw the jade Ruyi sent by Li Zhongxuan, and he didn't feel sneered.

"Niangniang, do you see you?" The grandmother next to her also smiled, as if they had already clamped Li Zhongxuan to death.

"Naturally, I want to see him, let the regent come in immediately." Empress Zhao's eyes lit up, staring at the door, and after a while, Li Zhongxuan came in from outside, and after saluting, Li Zhongxuan expressed appropriate condolences.

"Actually, the mourning family has also thought about it, what the prince said is very true, it is indeed not a matter to build such a large construction project for a dead person, but if this matter is not resolved, the people of the world are afraid that they will laugh at the mourning family and the Ministry of Industry.

"According to your subordinates, since the first emperor Quanxia has the knowledge to give you a dream, it is better to respect the meaning of the first emperor."

The Queen Mother cleverly expressed her approval of Li Zhongxuan, but her behavior was clearly shouting, you Li Zhongxuan must agree to this matter sooner or later, and sooner or later you will come to my Yishou Palace to apologize, otherwise we will be in a stalemate forever.

Li Zhongxuan looked at the desk, there was a piece of music on the table, it turned out that Empress Zhao was already wearing red.

Seeing this, Li Zhongxuan's heart was dripping blood.

"Your Majesty has been physically exhausted recently, and since he killed that thief, his head often hurts faintly." Hearing this, the smile on the corner of Empress Zhao's mouth froze, and Li Zhongxuan finally retreated.

After all, the court is still hers.

"What do you mean, sir?" Empress Zhao got up and personally sent a cup of tea to Li Zhongxuan, "Although you have conflicts with the mourning family, these are all because of the affairs of the imperial court, and the mourning family and you have never been in discord, right?" ”

"Your Majesty has been suffering from asthma recently, I heard that Fengzhou Mountain is beautiful and beautiful, and it is the remaining vein of Zhongnan Mountain, Your Majesty wants to go to Fengzhou to recuperate, it is better to let Your Majesty be the Taishou of Fengzhou."

"How can this be?" The Queen Mother was obviously frightened excessively, her eyebrows were exaggeratedly raised, and she looked very incomprehensible to Li Zhongxuan.

"Niangniang, your subordinates are smiling sincerely."

After Li Zhongxuan finished speaking, he put the cup of tea on the table.
