Chapter 82: Left Behind in the World
Thousands of trees bloom at night in the east wind, and osmanthus flowers are fragrant at the beginning of August. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn early autumn, the grass and trees have not yet decayed, but an osmanthus tree in the palace has already bloomed with gold stars.
Although the petals of osmanthus are small, its fragrance is tangy, and the rich and refreshing fragrance comes straight to the mind, making people feel very refreshed.
Li Shimin closed his eyes and reclined on a brocade couch, the osmanthus flowers in the palace have bloomed well in the past few days, and the eldest grandson queen has always wanted to invite him to appreciate, but he has been forced to make the trip due to the complicated affairs of the court. Finally, it was delayed to today's period of recess, and the ministers of the state were all on vacation, so Li Shimin simply came to the Lizheng Hall to enjoy the flowers.
The palace garden is elegant, and at this time it is the time when the laurel tree blooms, the flowers are delicate, the fragrance is fragrant, and it is far away from the disputes of the court meeting, which makes people feel comfortable.
The eldest grandson and Concubine Yang whispered on the side, and there were several young princes and princesses in the garden who were laughing and playing, Li Shimin was lazily lying on the brocade couch and closed his eyes to recuperate, he gently patted his thigh with one palm, and the other palm quietly climbed up Concubine Yang's buttocks, and the big hand made Concubine Yang sore, and chuckled: "Your Majesty, what about the children, hey, let go, the little son ran over, can't let her see it......"
Li Shimin's face tensed, and he hurriedly pulled back the salty pig hand.
The eldest grandson was trembling with laughter next to him, and quipped: "Your Majesty has been a little angry these days, and he won't let go of Concubine Yang in broad daylight." ”
Li Shimin coughed embarrassedly, and suddenly heard a crisp little girl's voice ringing in his ears, and said coquettishly: "Father, father, tell me another story." ”
"Tell a story? Good! Father is the best at this! Li Shimin stretched out his hand and touched the girl's little head, and said with some pride: "Today, my father will tell you a story about the battle against Luoyang City......
"Don't listen, don't listen, father, you can change it!" The little girl interrupted him directly, twisting her little hands and coquettishly: "I've heard the big battle of Luoyang City many times!" ”
Li Shimin was dumbfounded.
Seeing that the little girl looked cute, and her big round eyes were full of expectation, he stubbornly said: "Why don't you talk about the night battle in Wagangzhai, my father ...... back then."
"Don't, I've heard this!" The son is unrelenting, and he can almost hang a bottle with a beautiful little mouth.
Li Shimin's face is full of black lines, pity him for being a talented emperor, whether it is on the battlefield or in the court, he is never afraid, but he is not good at telling stories. Next to her, Empress Changsun and Concubine Yang laughed early, the two women trembled and trembled, and Li Shimin suddenly rolled his eyes and thought about it.
"My son wants to hear the story, right? Father thought that there was a young man with a smooth mouth and was the best at making up stories for others, how about we go out of the palace to find him now? ”
"Yes, yes!" The son cheered, clapped his little hands vigorously and shouted: "Father is the best!" As he spoke, he stood on tiptoe and kissed Li Shimin on the face, causing the emperor to laugh more than once.
The eldest grandson said softly on the side: "Your Majesty, I heard that you mean to go, you want to go......" Her phoenix eyes flashed slightly, and there were ripples of color, how could Li Shimin not know what she was thinking, and said with a smile: "Go with you, you fall in love with that stinky boy, I guess you miss him a little these days." ”
The eldest grandson's face was slightly happy, and he felt very moved. However, after she is virtuous, she will consider her husband in advance, and subconsciously said: "Although the concubine is older than the male in Jingyang County, but after all, she is not a flesh-and-blood relative, Your Majesty must not say such things again in the future, lest it be misunderstood, and the concubine will also have a bad reputation." ”
Li Shimin laughed and said, "Who would misunderstand? Who dares to misunderstand? Unsullied, you're so big that stinky boy is nearly eighteen years old, even if someone chews his tongue, I won't believe it. When he said this, he glanced at the eldest grandson, and suddenly said meaningfully: "Then again, don't you think that kid's eyebrows are a little similar to you?" ”
The eldest grandson was shocked, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, you also noticed it?" ”
Since ancient times, Concubine Yang was teasing the little son on the side, and suddenly heard the emperor and the queen talking differently, she suddenly said in her heart: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, the concubine is enjoying the flowers and playing today, and I feel a little tired, please allow me to go back to the palace to rest." ”
Li Shimin's eyes flashed, he naturally knew what Concubine Yang was afraid of, and said with a smile: "Concubine Yang don't be afraid, if this matter comes true, it will be a great joy for my royal family, you have always had a deep relationship with Wujian sisters, and today you will go out of the palace with us, just to help Wujian determine one thing......"
"Your Majesty!" Concubine Yang was waiting to say more, but Li Shimin waved his hand suddenly, and said lightly: "It's so decided, the left and right are resting today, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty can have leisure, can't my emperor's house go out of the palace for a walk?" When he said this, he didn't know what he remembered, his face was faintly stunned, he sighed in a low voice, and said lonely: "I have lost too much for this world, and I have lost too much for me......"
He didn't continue, and Concubine Yang didn't dare to ask, but the eldest grandson had tears rippling on the side, which seemed to have touched the tragedy in his heart. Concubine Yang has always been good friends with her eldest grandson, and she married Li Shimin early, she also faintly guessed some keys in her heart, and couldn't help but hold the eldest grandson's hand and gently comforted: "Sister, don't be sad, Your Majesty is right, if that child is really... Is... That's a great event. ”
The sisters whispered, but the little son next to him sensibly raised his little hand to help the eldest grandson wipe his tears, this little girl is so cute, she saw the eldest grandson look sad, and couldn't help but learn the tone of the adult to coax her to coax the eldest grandson, and said: "The queen mother doesn't cry, whoever provokes you, I'll beat him......"
The eldest grandson was sneered at by her coquettishness, and the sadness in his heart dissipated a lot!
Li Shimin picked up his son, swept his eyes over the eldest grandson and Concubine Yang, and said, "Let's go, while the sun is still early, just go out of the palace." ”
"Father, should I go with me? I heard that it's fun outside the palace......" The son bit his little finger in Li Shimin's arms and asked expectantly.
"Yes, my son will go too, let's go outside the palace today to have a good time, by the way, my father and mother will take you to see a big brother." Li Shimin stretched out his hand and pinched his son's face, and continued softly: "Didn't you want to hear the story? That big brother is a very smart guy, and he will definitely make up many, many powerful stories to tell his son. ”
"Many, many great stories?" The son's face was yearning, his little mouth couldn't help but salivate, and he even forgot to eat his fingers under the coquettishness.
When the emperor left the palace, he originally needed Yulin's entourage, and Jin Wuwei left and right, but this time Li Shimin had another purpose, and the matter of leaving the palace was carried out quietly.
Of course, the so-called quietly is just not to use the emperor's frame and the Son of Heaven with the army, the Tang Dynasty was first established, and the Xuanwumen Incident was not long ago, and the protection that Li Shimin should have around him is not lacking at all.
A full twelve Ouchi masters secretly accompanied each other, and another team of the most elite Jin Wuwei quietly set off, this team of thousands of soldiers, even if it was enough to fight a local war.
When the sun was just after noon, Li Shimin took his eldest grandson and Concubine Yang to help hold his son, and the family quietly took a wide carriage out of the palace.
The target, twenty miles west of Chang'an City, Tianjiazhuang on the bank of Weishui.
