Great Tang princess

Chapter 153 A Gift for Master
This diplomatic incident is actually very simple, and can even be directly summed up in two sentences.

Tubo envoy: "Emperor, why don't we stop fighting?"

Li Zhi: "Stop the thread? Now that the natural disaster is over, I have food. Who will be with you? Go ahead!"

Of course, that is the case. After all, since the Xianheng years, the various frictions between the two sides have basically never stopped.

But since Xue Rengui was defeated, there has been no major war.

Li Yuechen estimated that although Li Zhi had this attitude this year, the next major war should not happen immediately.

Although the Tubo envoy was rejected, Datang's etiquette was still in place. When he left, he also rewarded many gifts, which were much more valuable than the things he sent.

Li Zhi even gave him a batch of soap and told him with a ostentatious face that it was made by his favorite daughter Yunyun.

As a shrewd emperor, he can naturally guess the purpose of Tubo's visit this time. The purpose of saying this is to warn him, don't think of Lao Tzu's daughter!
……

Although Tubo made Li Zhi very unhappy, but at the end of February, his mood became better again.

Liu Rengui led the army to break through the seven cities of Silla. The Silla and Mohe coalition forces were not his opponents at all, and they doubted their lives when they were beaten.

From the past to the present, a total of three games have been played, and all three games have won!
After the news reached Chang'an, it was quickly disseminated to the whole country through newspapers, so the whole country celebrated with joy.

In these few battles, the military power of the Tang Dynasty was fought, and the whole country cheered.

Li Zhi started to burn incense and play the piano in Yanying Hall again, and he was in a beautiful mood!
In the morning, Li Yuechen, who finished practicing and took a bath, came to greet his parents. As soon as he came in, he saw his father sitting behind the table burning incense and playing the piano, and his mother was dancing beside him.

Not to mention, this was the first time Li Yuechen saw his mother dance.

Although it seems that his movements are a little stiff because he hasn't danced for a long time, the temperament on his body is even more beautiful than usual.

Although my mother is not young, she still looks quite young because of proper maintenance.

A well-maintained woman can always hide her age very well.Li Yuechen has seen the most exaggerated, 60 years old and can wear a bikini to a fashion show.

Although the wrinkles at the corners of the eyes are clearly visible, the skin on the body is still firm and elastic, almost indistinguishable from that of a woman who was just 30 years old.

Now if the couple took a picture and posted it online, some people would think they were father and daughter.

Seeing Li Yuechen coming in, Li Zhi who was playing the piano didn't speak, but nodded with a smile.

Li Yuechen also smiled, then obediently sat down beside him and licked water in the tea pot, watching his mother dance together.

Although her movements are a little stiff, they are generally light, and compared to young beauties, they have a touch of maturity.

Seeing her dancing in the hall, Li Yuechen couldn't help but think that although his mother is a ruthless person, in terms of personality, she is actually quite quiet.

She likes calligraphy and poetry, and she is quite good at rhythm and dance, but she doesn't have the feminine style of noble women in this period.

When I watched TV dramas before, I always set her character as the type that stands out among the crowd and shows her sharpness.

Especially many stories that happened during Taizong's period highlighted her scheming.

But in this era, when Li Yuechen looked at the history of the country, he found that everything about her during Taizong's period had been completely deleted.

Therefore, it can be basically concluded that later generations have made up everything about her in Taizong's time.

It's normal to think about it, after all, she is now Li Zhi's wife, so the records of Taizong's period must be harmonized.

……

After a short time, the playing of a song ended, and my mother's dancing also stopped.

Slightly let out a long breath, picked up the handkerchief and wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, then came to sit opposite the table.

Li Yuechen offered a cup of hot tea that had almost dried out with a wink, and handed it over respectfully with both hands: "Are you tired, Ma'am? Have some tea and rest."

Wu Zetian took it over and took a sip: "Now that your master is preparing to return to court, do you have any gifts?"

"Well, my boy is going to have a real combat training with Master in rattan armor!" Li Yuechen nodded.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Li Zhi next to him suddenly coughed when he heard this, and then couldn't help grinning: "Chen'er, you have a good idea!"

As soon as the master came back, he went to find someone to practice with. Although he knew she was joking, but still thinking about the expression on Liu Rengui's face at that time, it must be very funny.

Wu Zetian also covered her mouth and chuckled a few times: "Don't be kidding, don't make my heroes of the Tang Dynasty sick."

"Don't worry, Auntie, it won't happen!" Li Yuechen agreed, and came behind her to help her massage her body, which was a little tired from dancing just now.

Li Zhi picked up the health ball again: "Chen'er, this battle is now considered to be won, and Jin Famin has sent an envoy to confess his guilt... What do you think about Silla?"

Li Yuechen was quite used to such questions, but instead of answering them directly, he asked instead: "I wonder if Grandpa still wants to continue fighting?"

"It's not a question of whether you want it or not," Li Zhi smiled, "It's easy to wipe it out, but for me, Tang, it's a bit exhausting..."

"Boy, I think it's better to stop here." Li Yuechen thought for a while, "It took several generations of emperors' hard work to defeat Koryo, and it will not be a one-day effort to win the hearts of the people. So for now, we should concentrate on caring I'm better off..."

Hearing Li Yuechen's analysis, Li Zhi's eyes lit up, and the health ball in his hand kept spinning, with an expression of appreciation on his face: "Continue talking."

"From my child's point of view, it's better for me, Tang Dynasty, to quit here and guard the new border." Li Yuechen replied.

Still the same sentence, now the population of Datang is too small, and the territory is too large, it is difficult to take care of it.

With Datang's current strength, it is really not too difficult to destroy Silla.But the key is what happens after it's gone?

In such a far place, it is extremely troublesome to even deliver messages, let alone manage them.

Li Zhi nodded, then looked at his wife: "What does Mei Niang think?"

"Concubine, I agree with Chen'er's point of view. There is a bit of chaos in Baekje now, why not confer the land south of the Datong River to them, and transfer the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty back..."

Wu Zetian gave his own answer after careful consideration. After all, there is still a Tubo over there who may go to war at any time, and he really has no energy to fight there.

Hearing her answer, Li Zhi nodded: "That's true..."

Li Yuechen felt that if he changed himself to the father's position at this time, he would agree to this suggestion.

Instead of spending more energy and time to fight there, it is better to quit and let Baekje and Silla play by themselves.

Anyway, it is Baekje and Silla now, and North Korea and South Korea in the future. The layout of that island will remain the same until a year or so later.

The geographical location was also determined, and for a year or so after that, Datang would continue to be his neighbor and help him from time to time.

Because prosperity and prosperity, death and death.

Why is there the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea?Because he is our neighbor, if we don't save him, something will happen to him, and our own house will be uneasy!
……

At the beginning of March, Li Zhi issued an edict that with the Datong River as the boundary, the land in the south was granted to Silla, and the Tang army withdrew from the Korean peninsula. Let them toss about things over there.

The Tang army returned to the court, and at the same time restored Jin Famin's title of king of Silla, recalled Jin Renwen, and changed the title of Linhai County Duke.

The battle came to an end, and the next thing to do was to wait for Liu Rengui's army to return to the court and give a reward, which would be the end of it.

……

The news of Tang Jun's victory made Li Zhi very happy. During the Shangsi Festival, he directly asked all the officials to bring their children to the palace to play.

While letting the children play in Taiye Pool, they also held a banquet in Linde Hall to celebrate.

Li Yuechen finally found an opportunity to sell his roller skates, and took his third brother Li Xian and fourth brother Li Lun to play in the square outside Linde Hall.

Sure enough, a group of aristocratic children who were throwing pots saw such a novel thing, and they all ran over curiously and asked about the roller skates.

Li Yuechen said to them while gliding: "You are all heroes of the Tang Dynasty, but the cost of this thing is high, even if I want to give it to you, it is really..."

"How can you let His Highness give it away for nothing?" Liu Huang was the first to stand up, "You should buy it yourself. Dare I ask Your Highness, how much is this thing?"

"Hmm... 35 guan!" Li Yuechen nodded, "Of course, if it's a mass order, [-] guan can also..."

When the dudes heard this, although the price was a bit expensive, it was not unaffordable.

Liu Huang was the first to raise his hand: "I'll order a pair! Who else is there?"

As soon as Liu Huang placed the order, other dandies followed suit. They were not the ones who were short of money, so they must not lose face!
And not only men, many girls also found this thing to be very interesting to play, so they followed suit to place orders.

In just a quarter of an hour, Li Yuechen received nearly a hundred pairs of orders!Immediately beamed.

As for the money, there is no rush, and it will not be too late to give it after it is made.

She didn't believe it, there were still people in Datang who dared to take her account!

Li Hong didn't play with him because of his severe cough, but just drank with his parents and composed poems with the officials on the second floor platform of Linde Hall with Pei Qingwan.

Seeing a large group of children frolicking and playing together by the Taiye Pond, the adults in Linde Palace also laughed.

Even Li Zhi felt that it was a good thing that the occasional bustle and bustle in Daming Palace was a good thing.

And these noble children also found that it turns out that a large group of people playing together is much more interesting than going out for an outing.

In the past, when going out for an outing, it was basically a gathering of three or five friends. When hundreds of people gather to play like this, it almost does not exist.

It is easier for young people to let go when they are together. After chatting for a short time, someone suddenly proposed to play Cuju.

There are ready-made balls and goals in Daming Palace, so a temporary team was formed in front of Linde Hall.

Since the place here is not as big as a football field, Li Yuechen suggested that five people should be divided into two groups to fight against each other.

Li Yuechen formed a team with another girl and three boys, and on the opposite side were four boys and one girl.

The goal of Cuju is much smaller than that of football, and it still requires a lot of technical content.

After a while, the two teams confronted each other.

Li Yuechen and the girls all tied up their hair with hairpins, looking eager to fight.

A group of people next to them cheered for the two teams, but Liu Huang yelled directly: "Come, come, bet, bet..."

Liu Rengui is not at home now, he is completely herding the sheep, and actually started gambling directly in the palace.

The other dandies paid out their money and started betting.

The officials above the Linde Hall showed a gloomy expression, but seeing other children doing the same, they quickly put on a smile again.

Since everyone is the same, then no one should laugh at anyone else.

Li Zhi next to him couldn't help but smile when he saw this scene, he turned his head and asked in a low voice, "Won't Hong'er go play?"

"Grandpa, don't be joking, cough cough..." Li Hong shook his head with a smile, "How could the child be so cough cough cough..."

Pei Qingwan patted him on the back lightly, and at the same time asked the maid to pour a cup of tea.

Li Zhi nodded, did not continue to say anything, but turned his head and continued to look at Li Yuechen who was tossing back and forth on the court below.

I don't know why, I used to like Li Hong's obedient appearance, but now, I sometimes think about it, and occasionally it would be better if he was not so obedient and a little bit more energetic.

On the field, Li Yuechen ran to the opposite goal first, turned his head, put two fingers in his mouth and whistled.

The teammate kicked the ball very powerfully in mid-air and passed it over. Seeing the opposing members on both sides who were about to intercept, Li Yuechen grinned confidently and jumped up on the spot.

An upside-down golden hook kicked the ball into the opponent's goal accurately in mid-air, and at the same time supported it with one hand on the ground, and stood firmly with a backflip.

"Cai!!" Liu Huang was the first to shout out.

The crowd watching the battle applauded one after another. She was originally a princess with a noble status.Now showing such good skills is naturally worthy of applause.

Tang people are good at martial arts, and many people feel sincere admiration for the skills displayed by the princess.

……

This year's Shangsi Festival was even more lively than last year's. After Li Yuechen left, many people went to play.

Liu Huang, the banker, has made a lot of money, but it's a pity that Li Yuechen didn't invest in the shares, otherwise he would have been able to share a fortune with him.

In the blink of an eye, it was April, and many noble children still felt that they had a great time playing that day.

But Li Yuechen didn't have time to talk to them, and was busy preparing gifts for Master Liu Rengui when he came back.

Looking at the extremely simple iron still in front of him, while thinking about the hope of success, he officially started the experiment.

That's right, the gift prepared for Master Liu Rengui is white wine!
Now that food production has increased, it is natural to consider this.

Clear, transparent and powerful wine has not yet appeared in this era, and it will be a huge fortune by then!

It's just that the only problem is that the secrecy of this thing is not very good. When the time comes, I will discuss it with my father. For the time being, let the court control it.

　Thank you [Dream Everyday] for tipping 3000 starting coins!
