Princess Consort of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 37 If the sky is in love, the sky is also old

Originally a leisurely son-in-law, but there are many things.

This is not the day I want.

"Princess, I don't want to work hard anymore, can you support me?"

"..." Could it be that this is not the case now.

The princess didn't want to deal with this skinless man.

The princess is also very busy.

The Four Books and the Five Classics, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, singing and dancing, and folk arts are all not learned or practiced, and they will become unfamiliar.Marrying a woman doesn't mean abandoning these hobbies, it's just that the people who watch the dance and play chess have changed.Sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat.

The princess never gave up progress.

Because of having a powerful wife, Shen Sanwen can give up making progress.However, as a prophet, he is destined not to be underestimated.

Accompanying the princess to read books, play chess, play the piano, watch the ball occasionally, play games, ride horses and climb mountains, the days are very leisurely and comfortable.

Shen Sanwen felt that the princess's teenage life must be similar to the heart-piercing child who was enrolled in various interest classes in modern times, wearing a child prodigy hat and crying in private, looking very fortunate.

The princess was happy with it.

Royal education is elite education, multiple teachers are in charge of one student, under such circumstances, but also taught a lot of fools, it is really puzzling, maybe the teachers selected by the concubines and the emperor are not qualified.

The princess's teachers must be several learned and talented women.

"Princess, have you practiced this every day since you were a child?"

The princess had just finished playing the qin, and just as she was ordering the servants to pack the qin, she threw herself into Shen Sanwen's arms, and Shen Sanwen hugged her.

Baby is so hard.

"Yes, the queen mother said, it is wise to study history, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, self-cultivation and self-cultivation. As a princess, one must not indulge one's waywardness, be ignorant, lose the dignity of the royal family, and be looked down upon by others. Learning these will not be easy after a long time." It's very interesting, and it's better than being obsessed with what's in the cup all day, doing nothing, and doing nothing."

"You have read a lot of books, but have you ever read the Admonitions for Women as Women?" Shen San asked suddenly wanting to tease her.

"Turn it over. It's just some women's self-imposed works, so it's not worth reading. Could it be that the son-in-law hopes that the concubine will abide by the three obediences and four virtues, and serve her husband well?" The princess looked at him sincerely, and the whole person became much more obedient.

This title is not very good, the princess is not someone who is willing to live under others and serve others obediently. "No, no, no, it's better to abide by the new three obediences and four virtues for your husband. The princess must follow when she travels, obey the princess' orders, and obey the princess's teasing. Remember the princess's likes, coax the princess when she is angry, praise the princess' ability, and understand her heart .”

Seeing that what he said was interesting, the princess didn't bother with him. "The son-in-law knows sweet words all day long." Even so, the princess could understand the man's concern and care for her.

The princess never slack off, which also made Shen Sanwen feel a sense of crisis.There has never been a different view for no reason, let alone favor for no reason.The princess is favored by her own wisdom and tenacity, so what barriers do she have?Although relying on his three-inch tongue and the ability to predict the foresight, he has taken some opportunities, but if he allows the current situation to change and drifts with the tide, sooner or later there will be a day when the mountains and rivers will be exhausted and the end will be the end of the road.

So I should work hard, even though I am very reluctant.

Shen Sanwen carefully analyzed the situation.Although the princess is very influential now, she has no real power. The emperor has only been around for a year or so, and he still has to move around to make friends with the future officials.

Shen Sanwen discussed the matter with the princess: "I intend to make good friends with the nobles of the Wu family and future dignitaries, no matter whether they are loyal or not. In this way, we should be able to remain invincible."

The princess was very supportive, "It's good that the son-in-law can feel less uneasy by doing this. However, I have never seen a son-in-law learn gossip and Zhouyi. Watching the stars at night is always just admiring the moon, but he can predict the future, fortune and fortune in the world, and future events. It's amazing."

"Perhaps I was born with the ability to know the future. I was born in Datang to be able to spend my whole life with the princess. God gave me this opportunity, so I wanted to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages in everything and protect the princess." Shen The three questions come from the heart.

"I already know the intention of the son-in-law, but the world is changeable and the way of heaven is ruthless. The son-in-law does not need to force everything, and is always sad. I will be rich and honored all my life, and I will definitely keep my son-in-law safe for the rest of my life." The princess is also very sincere.

Shen San asked: "When the dragon swims in the shoals, the tiger has the day when it falls in Pingyang. It is true that we are rich today, but we have no power in our hands. If someone covets the princess's wealth in the future, I must bear the brunt of it. I will be squeezed out and suppressed, and even die No guarantee, the incident in Luoyang is a wake-up call."

The princess changed her posture and continued to hug her son-in-law tightly, "Then what are you going to do?"

Shen San asked: "Wu's children, Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi, have the closest relationship with the empress mother, and will be the most favored in the future. I plan to do what they like and make good friends with them. In the future, we will not hate each other and meet each other in battle."

Princess: "The Wu family is far away in Bingzhou. The mountains are high and the roads are far away. It's better to wait for New Year's Eve, when everyone from the Wu family arrives in Beijing, and then make plans."

Over the past dynasties, the monopoly of foreign relatives was deeply tabooed by the emperors. Today, today's son has personally experienced a struggle with his eldest grandson Wuji before he can truly take power, and he is even more afraid of foreign relatives.Wu Zetian was well aware of this matter, and also knew his brothers' meager talents, so naturally he would not stumble on this matter. When he became empress, the two brothers and two cousins ​​were exiled far away for trivial matters, and most of them died in the On the way, he could not die well. A member of the Wu family has never held a high-ranking official position in the court.Emperor Gaozong was impressed by Wu Zetian's deep understanding of righteousness, and he trusted the queen more. He gave the Wu family a lot of money and silk rewards.The most honorable queen of the Wu family is in Chang'an, so every New Year's Eve, the new generation of generals come to the capital every year to please the queen, in order to preserve their glory and wealth.

Now that the autumn is high and the air is crisp, and the cold winter is coming in a month or so, it is not a bad idea to wait for several months.

The princess returned to the palace to pay her respects every few days, and Shen Sanwen was accompanied by her when she asked. On this day, the two entered the palace hand in hand.

Shen Sanwen suddenly discovered that a capable person who has been ignored by him is also a woman who can turn clouds and rain.

When meeting Empress Wu this time, Empress Wu discussed military and state affairs with Princess Taiping as usual, but there was one person serving her.

The harem has never been allowed to interfere in the discussion of government affairs, so every time Empress Wu discusses with the princess, she retreats to the left and right. This person can be here, so Shen Sanwen has to take a high look.

Shen Sanwen took a closer look, this person was about the same age as the princess, with a handsome face, a little humble but also a little self-satisfied in his demeanor, his eyes were piercing, he was not submissive like a palace man, his eyebrows were lowered and his eyes were soft, he had a look of his own, and his hands were soft Catkin should also be a person of courtesy.In the imperial palace, there is no humble attitude of a palace man, but a subtle ostentatious attitude. He must not be someone who has been oppressed by the deep palace for a long time. How can this person accompany Empress Wu?

Shen Sanwen was very curious at the moment, took advantage of the gap between the two of them to discuss, and asked, "I don't know who this is?"

Princess Taiping responded, "This is a well-known talented woman in the palace, Shangguan Wan'er, with outstanding literary talent, knowledgeable about the past and the present."

"So she's a talented woman." If she wasn't talented, she wouldn't be able to stand beside Empress Wu.

Shangguan Wan'er, she actually forgot such an important person!
Empress Wu: "What does the son-in-law think of Wan'er's face?"

Shen Sanwen took another look, "He is a smart and blessed person."

If this is the heroine prime minister of Wu Zhou, it will be a success if I make friends with her.Today's political discussion, Empress Wu has asked Shangguan Wan'er to accompany her, and she has deliberately cultivated him. This person has become a great trend, but she has not gained the trust of Empress Wu. The comparison between the two is also bleak.

Shangguan Wan'er also noticed that this son-in-law was consistent with the rumors, gentle and elegant, handsome, caring for Princess Taiping, the details of clothing, food, and walking were more careful than palace people, and she put Princess Taiping first in everything, and didn't care about the outside world at all. Discussion, go its own way, and it is the same in the palace, it is really free and easy.Here, the queen can also speak, think twice before speaking, calm and prudent, but not like the dandy that the outside world said.

Shangguan Wan'er was very curious about this person.

After the two left, they couldn't wait to ask Empress Wu, "This son-in-law has no actual position and power, and has never participated in politics, but he speaks confidently. His suggestions are novel and compassionate. What does the empress think of this person?"

Wu Zetian laughed and handed her a copy of "Introduction to Criminal Law". "Shen Sanwen, traveling thousands of miles, is naturally different from a nerd who reads thousands of volumes of books. This book is written by him, you can read it. Di Renjie once said that this man has great talent, and I believe this book only after seeing this book. It's a pity that this person has no intention of political affairs, avoids responsibility everywhere, and only wants to be happy. The summary of the criminal law is also called what he saw in a dream. There are occasional ambiguities in politics. There is more than enough for learning, but not enough for politics.”

Shangguan Wan'er didn't say much anymore, what the empress said was that this person cannot be reused, but she praised him so much, she must be very satisfied with this person, she could see it clearly.This son-in-law is really lucky. Empress Wu clearly said that he is loyal, has no political threats, and is the princess' husband.In the future, if you have the opportunity, you should get closer and closer, exchange literature and politics, and be in the deep palace. One more friend will have more hope.

When the two left the palace, Shen Sanwen confessed to Princess Taiping. "That Shangguan Wan'er will be a prime minister in the future."

The princess saw the son-in-law's ability to predict the year, and she could only marvel at it. "Shangguan Wan'er is quite talented in poetry, but she is only a maidservant in the inner court. Now she is valued by her mother, and she can offer advice to her attendants. It is reasonable to influence the court in the future. There has never been a woman as a prime minister, and the son-in-law can say that he is a female prime minister." , but I don’t know how she can do it.”

Shen Sanwen didn't say much anymore, history always has its own trajectory, and I don't know what kind of hurricane this butterfly can bring.

After meeting Shangguan Wan'er, she made it clear to her, and the princess has a good impression of this person. When communicating with her, pay attention to one or two things, and she will be an excellent ally if she shows some kindness.This person is not stupid, and he will naturally make friends with the princess.

Shangguan Wan'er, who was at Empress Wu's side, became more respectful the more she saw.This queen has gradually become Wan'er's role model. Not only men can hold power in the world and determine the life and death of all people, but this person in front of her is also an overlord.So can I also have such a brilliant life?Wan'er suddenly thought of the story her mother told her. The day before her mother gave birth to her, she dreamed that a giant gave her a scale, which could be used to weigh the world's soldiers.In the past, Shangguan Wan'er, who only hoped to be able to marry a good man at a young age with fair skin and beautiful skin, suddenly developed a desire for power. If she could be the butcher of an official in the future and measure the people of the world, she would live up to her life.The seeds of ambition gradually germinated and could no longer be extinguished.

Power will always be the indelible fire of desire in this imperial court, no one can escape, they can only sink further and find it hard to extricate themselves.

It was only one month, and Shangguan Wan'er had a better understanding of the empress' talents, and figured out the empress Wu's character.The posture of the sky is a vocabulary tailored for this empress. She is calm in situations and has outstanding intelligence, far surpassing the emperor.Treating others with humility, yet possessing the spirit of killing and decisiveness, and being able to fight with reason, using any means to achieve one's goals, is really a born emperor. I am far from this empress, and I still have a lot to learn, I don't know why In what year and month, I can decide my own destiny like a queen, and decide the destiny of the people in the world.

On this day, the princess and son-in-law both came to the palace again. This is considered the privilege of the princess. With the emperor's permission and the husband's connivance, the world is so big that there is no place where she cannot go.

Princess Taiping has been envied by the rich and powerful wives all over the world. She was born with golden branches and jade leaves. Thanks to the nobility of this man.

This month, Shangguan Wan'er saw this amorous son-in-law three times, but this man only had eyes for his princess. "Summary of Criminal Law" can be regarded as the most ancient and modern law code. No one has done such a profound and systematic study, and no one has compiled it in such detail. This person should be a master of criminal law.

17 years old, this is the best age of a girl, but in the deep palace, there is only an old emperor who is not as good as a girl, not to mention handsome, some feelings arise naturally.

If Shen Sanwen hadn't accompanied the princess every time, he might have been feared by the emperor.

Thinking of last night's dream, when the person opposite greeted her, Shangguan Wan'er lowered her head a little.With the honor and favor that Princess Taiping received today, this person is by no means something I can get my hands on, even if I think about it.Shangguan Wan'er carefully controlled her emotions and demeanor so as not to accidentally lose her head. She still has great ambitions, so it's better to get rid of these unrealistic thoughts as soon as possible.

Finally calmed down slowly.

Time passed day after day.

The twelfth lunar month has arrived.

Another moment.

As New Year's Eve was approaching, everyone from the Wu clan finally arrived in the capital ahead of schedule.

Shen Sanwen and Wang Bin often get together and express their wish to befriend the brothers of the Wu family. Wang Bin understands it, and after a series of unexpected encounters, they become acquainted with Wu Youji, the most elegant Wu family.

On this day, Shen Sanwen and Wang Bin drank tea in a teahouse.

When Wu Sansi came to the capital, he would study behind closed doors. Wu Chengsi just listened to music, drank and had fun at home.I don't know if it was Empress Wu's order, or because she was worried about Empress Wu's political enemies. After all, this aunt has never been soft on her brother, and the two of them are self-aware.

On the contrary, the two teenagers who moved to the suburbs of Beijing for several years, Wu Zetian's nephews, Wu Youji and Wu Youning, brought the downcast Empress Wu's mother all the way to the capital in the early years, and they were kind to the Yang family. In the atmosphere, he is more confident to be active in various entertainment venues.

In fact, Shen Sanwen was also very curious about Wu Youji.
