Great Tang princess

Chapter 15 Back to Mother's Home

Playing with the two sisters all afternoon, today's dinner will be later than usual, Li Yuechen went out for a walk as usual.

After coming to this era, she paid great attention to health preservation. After all, this is an era of backward medical treatment, so she can only ensure that she does not get sick as much as possible.

In this day with her family members, she couldn't help reminiscing about the past life, feeling a little melancholy.

I have never met my parents in my previous life, and I have lived with my grandfather since I was a child.When he was ten years old, his grandfather died and he was placed in an orphanage.

His academic performance was not very good. After being admitted to an ordinary university, he left the orphanage to support himself.

In college, I came into contact with extreme sports by accident, and officially started a ten-year career of death.

Slowly, Li Yuechen walked out of the harem, surrounded by heavily armed Jinwu Guards.

They didn't say a word, just followed the little princess to protect her safety.

Li Yuechen walked aimlessly, and when he came back to his senses, he had already arrived at the city wall of Danfengmen.

The sun has completely set, and a bright crescent moon hangs in the sky, and the silver moonlight shines on the entire city of Chang'an.

When a breeze blew, Li Yuechen came back to his senses and said to himself: "It's already at a different time..."

Eunuch Fu and Xiao He behind them looked at each other, then shook their heads at the same time, expressing that they didn't understand what the princess said just now.

This is natural, because what she just said was the Mandarin of later generations, which is quite different from the current Middle Chinese.

The huge city of Chang'an alternates between light and dark, and the light emitted is softer, not as conspicuous as in future nights.

There is a bright light in some relatively prosperous workshops, such as Pingkangfang.And the farther south you go, the dimmer the light gets.

Chang'an claims to have a population of one million, but in fact, it still cannot fill the city.

Most of the area in the south is very desolate.

But even so, this is already the most prosperous city in the world in this era.

A gust of cold wind blew by, Eunuch Fu looked up, stepped forward and reminded: "Your Highness, the city gate is very windy, be careful of catching cold."

"En. Let's go." Li Yuechen nodded, turned around and prepared to go back.

Glancing at Xiao He and those Jinwu guards who were following behind, a smile appeared on Li Yuechen's face.

People in this era would never have thought that this would be a train station after more than a thousand years, right?
Tonight, the whole family had dinner at the Golden Luan Hall. Of course, the two elder sisters who were born as bastards had no place.

In this era, meals are shared. The four elder brothers sat at their respective tables, and Li Yuechen still sat next to his mother.

The family banquet inside was much more relaxed than yesterday, everyone was wearing comfortable casual clothes, and the atmosphere was not so solemn.

Several elder brothers stood up one by one to toast Li Zhi and his wife, saying some auspicious words such as congratulations or wishes.

In the end it was Li Yuechen's turn, holding a cup of hot tea soup and smilingly said to Li Zhi and his wife: "May my lords, let my Tang Dynasty prosper and prosper, and the country will last forever!"

The couple and the older brothers were slightly taken aback, as if they didn't expect the little sister to say such a thing.

Generally, children should be thinking about fulfilling some kind of wish, but I didn't expect to say these things.

This is also Li Yuechen's deliberation. He has an adult soul, and he will definitely do things different from others in many places in the future.

Instead of creating sudden surprises, it is better to show your own uniqueness little by little since childhood.

In this way, even if something that is difficult for people of this era to understand is done in the future, it is not unacceptable.

After all, he was smart since childhood, wasn't he?
"Ha ha ha ha……"

Li Zhi burst into laughter suddenly: "Okay, you are indeed my daughter!"

As he spoke, he picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it in one gulp. His face was flushed, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

The old lady Wu Zetian next to her also smiled dotingly, and she liked this daughter even more.

But then he turned his head to look at the sons below and said: "Xian'er and Xian'er, look at Chen'er, do you feel ashamed?"

Li Xian and Li Xian didn't expect to be shot while lying down, and they immediately looked embarrassed.

Thanks to Li Yuechen's quick response, he raised his head and said, "Don't scold the two elder brothers, Auntie. Today is the New Year, you should be happy."

Wu Zetian frowned: "Don't protect the two of them..."

"That's not the case!" Li Yuechen shook his head, "I don't know, my elder brothers often say that they are stupid and always annoy the two adults. Chen'er knows that the two elder brothers don't want to do this, so please ask my mother Be more tolerant!"

While explaining, Li Yuechen felt helpless in his heart. Does Wu Zetian know how to educate children or something?
If it is in the future or in the homes of ordinary people, there is nothing wrong with such education.

But this is the royal family after all, these children will more or less hold the power of life and death in the future.

When they were young, they were provoked into rifts, and when they grew up, they had power in their hands. If they got a little higher, they might end up fighting with each other regardless of their relatives.

In particular, the royal family of the Tang Dynasty already had traditional performing arts in this area.

Taizong Li Er killed his brother and nephew as a start. The follow-up Li Chengqian failed thanks to the conspiracy. If it really happened, could he let Li Tai go?

I've heard on the Internet before that cannibalism was extremely serious in the royal family of the Tang Dynasty, and there was even a ruthless person like Tang Minghuang who slaughtered three sons in a row in one day!

So Li Yuechen has been trying to avoid this kind of thing from happening. If she is a princess, if there is a gap in her relationship with her brothers because of Wu Zetian's lesson, a white silk will be indispensable in the future.

Hearing what her daughter said, the expression on Wu Zetian's face obviously relaxed, and she touched her head with a smile: "Okay, A Niang will not talk about them."

The second and third children below were obviously relieved when they heard that they didn't have to be taught a lesson.

At the same time, I couldn't help laughing in my heart, and helped them end at the critical moment. It seemed that I didn't love this sister in vain.

Li Yuechen, who was sitting next to Wu Zetian again, blinked at them, Li Xian secretly gave a thumbs up, and Li Xian also showed a smile.

Li Zhi didn't speak, but just watched the scene quietly while playing with the health ball in his hand, with an inscrutable smile on his face, he didn't know what he was thinking.

…………

As if to cherish this hard-won vacation, Li Zhi and Wu Zetian slept until sunrise the next day.

And Li Yuechen who was in Chengxiang Palace had already woken up early to do yoga, but he used to be alone, but now he has two older sisters by his side.

The two elder sisters also took a mat, standing behind her on the left and right sides, imitating her appearance, standing alone on the right leg, stepping on the side of the knee of the right leg with the left foot, and raising their hands above their heads, palms facing each other.

"Chen'er, just stand like this?" Princess Xuancheng asked with a questioning face.

"Just follow my movements, pay attention to the rhythm of breathing..." Li Yuechen asked them to follow his movements slowly while talking.

After practicing for about half an hour, Xiao He came over and reminded: "Your Highness, it's almost time to wash up."

Li Yuechen agreed, finished today's practice with the two sisters, then went to have breakfast, and then freshen up.

Thanks to the fact that she doesn't need to wear a Tin Chai dress today, she just needs to dress up roughly, which makes her feel a lot better.

At about eight or nine o'clock, Li Yuechen came to wait outside the Ming Fuyuan early.

The older brothers came earlier than her, and they were walking around and moving their bodies.

There is no way, the ancient etiquette was strict, even Li Yuechen, who was unruly, would not dare to let Wu Zetian, a mother, wait for her.

At this point, she set herself an extremely strict course of action.

That is, no matter how favored you are, you must never put your nose on your face!Otherwise, the consequences will be serious!
After waiting for less than twenty minutes, Wu Zetian also came out.

After saying hello to their mother, the group boarded a luxurious carriage and headed to Mrs. Rong Guo's mansion.

Wu Zetian's younger sister was away with her husband, and Li Yuechen had never seen her before.

And her elder sister, Mrs. Zheng Guo, was also the concubine of her father Li Zhi, but she is dead.

It is worth mentioning that Li Zhi is also very playful in this regard. Mrs. Zheng Guo's daughter, Li Yuechen's cousin, Wu Zetian's niece, was also his concubine... also died.

It was rumored that he was killed by his old mother Wu Zetian, but Li Yuechen was just born at that time, his bones hadn't grown well, and he couldn't walk, so the exact truth is completely unclear.

As the queen's mother, Mrs. Rongguo's residence is very close to the palace, in Yongjiafang.

And it occupies a large area, almost occupying a quarter of a square.

After the carriage stopped at the door, a group of people got out of the car and saw Mrs. Rong Guo who was already waiting at the door.

Now she is more than ninety years old, her face is covered with wrinkles, and her white hair is shining with silver, without a trace of black.

Fortunately, her body is quite strong, her eyes are still bright, and her figure is not bulky.

Standing inside the gate with a cane that was almost as tall as her, a smile appeared on her wrinkled face when she saw the children coming down.

In this era, most people are patriarchal, including women.

But perhaps because of raising three daughters alone, Mrs. Rong Guo obviously liked Li Yuechen a little more than the four princes.

In addition, she is good at making people happy, every time she comes here, she can make Mrs. Rong Guo happy for a long time.

When the four elder brothers walked in the door with Wu Zetian, Li Yuechen had already rushed in.

"Grandmother!" Li Yuechen came to her side, took her hand and smiled sweetly: "I'm here."

"Chen'er is here." Mrs. Rong Guo smiled and patted her head, "Grandmother misses you."

Li Yuechen nodded: "From now on, Chen'er will visit grandma more often!"

The elderly are like children, they are easy to coax, as long as they have a little patience.

Wu Zetian walked in with her four sons: "I haven't come back for a long time, is mother okay?"

"Well, well!" Mrs. Rong Guo smiled and nodded in agreement.

The four princes also bowed and bowed in salute: "I have seen my grandmother!"

"Okay, okay..." Mrs. Rong Guo waved her hand, "Come in, come in."

A group of people followed Mrs. Rongguo into the house, and the Jinwu guards stayed outside. Only two Qianniu guards followed Wu Zetian into the mansion.

After entering the room, Wu Zetian and several other elder brothers sat obediently on the couch, only Li Yuechen was pulled by Mrs. Rongguo's side.

The two of them were chatting about homework, but Li Yuechen and his elder brothers couldn't get in the conversation, so they could only listen by the side.

Li Yuechen didn't think it mattered, he listened patiently.

However, the elder brothers obviously felt bored, but they didn't dare to look impatient, so they could only drink yogurt and listen obediently.

Occasionally, Mrs. Rong Guo asked about the current situation, and she always answered politely, embarrassingly.

Relatively speaking, the boss Li Hong is better, he is mature, and he can take the initiative to chime in from time to time without feeling embarrassed at all.

The others are not good enough. The second and third children are obviously still children, but it's just because the mother is still here, otherwise they would have been unable to sit still.

The fourth child is a boring gourd, with a low sense of presence, sitting in a daze without saying a word, not knowing what he is thinking.

Wu Zetian didn't seem to have much to talk about with his mother, and she didn't understand state affairs, so after a short time, the topic shifted to the child.

"Speaking of which, why didn't Chen'er prepare a copy for my grandmother when she made the iron ball?" Wu Zetian asked.

Li Yuechen replied: "I think the utensil is a bit heavy, and I am afraid that my grandmother will be tired from holding it."

This is true, in fact, she thought about giving a pair to Mrs. Rong Guo, but she is an old man, and it would be a crime if she couldn't hold one and knocked her foot.

"It's okay, compared to that iron ball, as long as Chen'er comes to see me often." Mrs. Rong Guo interrupted Wu Zetian's lesson.

……

A group of people ate here at noon, and then they were almost ready to go back.

Li Yuechen had nothing to do, so he said to stay here to spend more time with his grandmother and go back at night, Wu Zetian also agreed.

He stayed here with Mrs. Rong Guo for another afternoon, almost at sunset, and agreed to come back to see her in a few days before Li Yuechen got up and left.

Walking out the door, the Jinwu guards next to him were ready.

Eunuch Fu lifted the curtain of the carriage to let Xiao He carry her into the carriage, when he suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes.

Looking back, a young man in a light blue robe has already jumped off the horse.

This man was tall and handsome, with a black cape on his head and two long streamers hanging down from behind.

It is said that Xianbei people are good-looking, regardless of facial features, one of the biggest characteristics is whiteness.

As the saying goes, white covers all ugliness, coupled with a tall figure, it can be said that as long as the facial features are not bad, it is definitely not ugly.

Not only is the guy in front of him not bad, but he also has distinct facial features. Even in later generations, he would still look like a standard handsome guy.

After this man got off his horse, he walked straight towards Li Yuechen, and the Jinwu Guard next to him took a step forward, holding the horizontal knife at his waist in his hand.

The man did not continue to move forward, but bowed and saluted on the spot: "I have seen Her Royal Highness."

This guy is none other than Mrs. Rong Guo's grandson, He Lanminzhi.

Li Yuechen nodded: "Cousin excuse me, it's getting late, Yuechen will leave first!"

This guy always has an inexplicable feeling, Li Yuechen doesn't like it very much, so he doesn't want to say anything more.

Xiao He carried her into the carriage, Jin Wuwei led the carriage and turned to leave.

Only then did He Lan Minzhi straighten up, looking at the direction the carriage was leaving, with a smile on his lips and a slight twinkle in his eyes.
