Chapter 476 The first year of Tianbao
Governor Wei suffered a stroke and fell down.

He didn't fall down early or late, but he fell down just a few days before leaving Guangzhou.What's more, he got this disease. Many people secretly guessed that he didn't want to go back to Chang'an, so he pretended to be sick on purpose!

Regarding this speculation, the governor's mansion has not given a reply for a long time.

They are in a mess now, and people's hearts are not in harmony. The only person who cares about Governor Wei is himself. As a result, he is now lying on the bed, his mouth and eyes are crooked, and even if he can hear the words, he can't speak a word.Hearing the news, he could only hold his breath in his heart, forcefully making his illness worse.

After Mu Jiaojiao heard about it, he closed the door and whispered to Cui Pu: "The county king on the front foot just went to see him, but he suffered a stroke on the back foot. Don't you think this is a bit strange?"

"It's very strange. But, what does that matter to us? If they have the ability, they will go to sue the prince and say that the king of Hejian county has harmed him! Do they dare? This old man is a scourge, and he has no one else in his eyes. To To achieve his goal, there is nothing he can’t do in this world. It’s good for him to do this now, so as not to cause trouble and dig a hole for us when he returns to Chang’an. Let me tell you, if they want to ask you to help treat the disease, I won't agree!" Cui Pu answered absent-mindedly while fidgeting.

As he spoke, he suddenly raised his head: "By the way, before the end of the year, I'll ask someone to make some new clothes for you! Your belly will get bigger and bigger after the new year, and you'll definitely have to wear it by then." To make a new one, it’s better to make some preparations first. There’s also the big lady, she’s also growing very fast now, so I’ll make some for her too.”

Mu Jiaojiao was dumbfounded.

It's only been a few days, and he has become such a decent house-husband, and even planned this kind of thing for them!
Compared with him, she felt that what she did as a mother was actually quite careless...

"Let's talk about this next year. It's almost the end of the new year, and the people in the embroidery workshop have to rest!" Mu Jiaojiao finally came to his senses, and persuaded him in a low voice, "Don't be too obsessed with playing these things. It's the end of the year, and don't forget about your dealings with those people in the official circles in Lingnan. The eldest lady can help you share some of the family affairs, and it's time for her to learn some of these things."

"Don't worry, I know all these things!" Cui Pu said confidently.

Mu Jiaojiao sighed again. "Now, Governor Wei may not be able to leave years ago. Your status is embarrassing."

Let's talk about the prefect, not the prefect.Let's talk about the governor, the former governor hasn't left yet.How will he live this year?And what kind of identity should I interact with others?I'm afraid other families are also worrying about this matter now!
"Isn't that good? I took this opportunity to see the reactions of these people and judge their attitude towards me. If I take the initiative to show my kindness, I will be the governor in the future. I will also benefit from them; if I take the opportunity to give If I can’t find them happily, I’ll write down their names in a small notebook first, and I’ll deal with them when I find a chance later!” Cui Pu said with a sinister face.

But in Mu Jiaojiao's eyes, he only found it funny.

"It's fine. Anyway, you should work harder these days! When I recover, I will take back my responsibilities."

"No, just take care of your baby and give me a smart and beautiful little lady like the big lady. I can do the rest!" Cui Pu insisted, and the counting chip in his hand continued to rattle .

He has just started with these things, and he hasn't mastered them yet, so how can he let them go so quickly?

Mu Jiaojiao felt helpless, so he had no choice but to accept him temporarily.

Because of Governor Wei's illness, the family did not leave years ago, but waited until the first month of the year before packing up and going to Chang'an.Of course, during this period of time, Governor Wei's illness has not recovered, and all the decision-making power of the Wei family falls in the hands of Mr. Wei Wulang.

Therefore, the situation of Governor Wei can be imagined.After Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao found out, they couldn't help but secretly shed tears of sympathy for him.

During this period of time, the attitude of people in Lingnan official circles towards Cui Pu was also very strange.Naturally, some people saw that he overthrew Governor Wei in just one year and replaced him by themselves, and they were amazed by his ability and wanted to curry favor; some people thought that he was too ambitious and not easy to befriend, so they deliberately kept a distance Some people think that Wei Shishi has a good relationship with the prince at any rate, and now Wei Shishi's stroke may be the way he and the prince agreed to delay the time, so they deliberately seize the opportunity to show their loyalty to the prince, and Cui Pu is the same Joking about his identity... So many good shows are staged almost every day.

At any rate, Cui Pu is no longer the impulsive and irritable Chang'an dude he used to be.No matter how these people treat him, he accepts it with a smile, but he has already divided these people in his heart.Everyone in the first two is safe and sound, but as for the third... After he officially takes over as the governor, he will directly sharpen his sword against them!
Outsiders don't know the details of Wei's assassination, but Pei Jinglue knows it well.Although after the incident, Prince Hejian was still as gentle and low-key as ever, and he didn't see much contact with the Cui family, but he had already remembered all of this in his heart.With the two bloody examples of Mr. Pei Wu and Mr. Pei Jiulang in front of them, everyone in the Pei family was deeply afraid of Cui Pu's family, and the sense of superiority of the natives that existed in their hearts no longer existed.

During the New Year's Eve, as long as Cui Pu was present, Envoy Pei Jinglue would definitely treat him with courtesy and show his support for him.

This year passed like this.

Years later, under the insistence of Mr. Wei Wulang, Wei Jieshi's family set off to return to Chang'an.Then, there was also an edict from Chang'an—from this year onwards, the name of the country will be changed to Tianbao.This year is the first year of Tianbao!

"Tianbao, Tianbao, this country name is good, really good!"

Holding the imperial edict in his hand, Cui Pu sneered.

"Wuhua Tianbao. I have a great Tang Dynasty, with talents coming out in large numbers and countless auspicious signs. It is indeed a treasure loved by God. The saint is old, really old. He feels that he worked hard in the early stage and developed the new Tang Dynasty to an unprecedented level of prosperity. , now that he is successful and famous, he can relax and enjoy it! He is completely planning to indulge!"

Mu Jiaojiao also sighed inwardly.

This reign was indeed a turning point in Tang Xuanzong's life.When he was young, he worked hard and developed the country to its peak, surpassing all his predecessors. It is only natural that he feels a sense of accomplishment in his heart.However, once the idea that you can stop struggling and start enjoying is born in your heart, then this person is finished!And he is not just a person, he is an emperor, and all his decisions are related to the life and death of the country.

Once he started to indulge, he let go of the whole country!In this way, it is no wonder that Li Linfu and others started to make trouble, and later Yang Guozhong and even the supporters followed suit, messing up the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

However, she can only say this in her heart now.This story, which has already been recorded in the annals of history and caused many descendants of Yan and Huang to shake their heads and sigh, has already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.She cannot be changed by herself alone.Even if she stood up and said such things now, would she be regarded as a lunatic instead?
Now all she can do is to recruit Cui Pu to her side, stroking his head and persuading him, "Don't think too much about it. In fact, didn't the sage show such clues a few years ago? It's just that now The older he gets, the more he indulges in enjoyment, and he will naturally sink more and more. People like this, you can't stop it."

What's more, there is Concubine Taizhen, a sweet concubine who agrees with him, by his side, and the government is dominated by Li Linfu, and his chest is filled with lofty ambitions that surpass his predecessors.Under such circumstances, it is really rare for a few people to be able to control themselves without getting carried away.

Tang Xuanzong was just an ordinary person.

"I don't think too much about it. It's just that I'm worried about my family in Chang'an!" Cui Pu sighed, "I went out for a drink that day, and I heard that An Lushan is also in the army now. He also has a relationship with Li Linfu. The sage is very fond of him because of his collusion. It is reported that Li Linfu elected him in front of the sage last year when Yushi Zhongcheng returned to his hometown because of his old age. Moreover, he is still fighting for the post of Jiedu envoy of Pinglu. If all these come true, Then Zhang Zhongshu's prophecy will most likely come true!"

Rest assured, it will definitely come true.

Mu Jiaojiao patted him on the back: "It's useless for you to be anxious about these things. The most urgent thing is that you should do your own thing first and lay a solid foundation."

"Yeah, apart from these, I seem to have no other options." Cui Pu said weakly.

Then, he leaned on her shoulder and began to sigh, shouting a bunch of empty slogans like country, family, etc.

Mu Jiaojiao couldn't bear it anymore and slapped him on the back of the head: "Pretend again! You pretend again! Are you such a person who cares about the country and the people?"

"Yeah, lady, please be gentle, don't get angry, and be careful of our little lady!" Cui Pu couldn't stop being sad immediately, and quickly turned around to hug her, protecting her already slightly protruding belly with one hand.

Mu Jiaojiao was angry and funny. "Since you still know that you have such a little lady, why don't you do things honestly for me and make money to support my family?"

"I know, I know, I won't think about it in the future!" Cui Pu nodded quickly.

At the end, he couldn't help holding his head and complaining in a low voice: "Miss, you are not short-tempered this time, so you will give birth to a little girl who is as hot as the big lady again?"

"Daddy, are you talking about me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the big lady poked her head in.

Cui Pu immediately smiled again. "Yeah, I was talking about you."

"What do you say about me?"

"It's said that your mother's situation when she was pregnant with your little sister is exactly the same as when she was pregnant with you. I think your little sister will have the same temper as you when the time comes."

"Really? That's great! Then I'll have a companion in the future!" The eldest lady immediately became happier.

"Aren't you afraid that if you have a little sister, we will all love her and not you?" Mu Jiaojiao couldn't help asking.

The big lady's smile froze, and her little face was instantly filled with panic.But immediately she shook her head: "That's not it! Daddy likes me the most, even if he has a younger sister, he won't favor my younger sister only. And you, Niang, are so fierce, you won't be partial to me." She is alone. Besides you, there are many people who love me, such as the grandpa of the county king, the grandparents of Chang'an, and the grandfather, etc., I have no shortage of people to love me. Little sister She's younger than me, so it's only right for me to share some of my love with her!"

Mu Jiaojiao suddenly felt very sad.

Cui Pu was right, the kid really became more and more boring the older he got.Now they can't scare her with words, and the sense of accomplishment in raising children has been greatly reduced.Sure enough, they need to raise another baby to satisfy their superior psychology as parents.

Mu Jiaojiao began to think - should she raise the baby in her belly to be stupid?
