Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 468
It was bustling outside, but Princess Pingyang's mansion still kept quiet. Princess Pingyang's work and rest were very regular, because she was pregnant, she stopped archery and horse riding, and only kept walking every morning and evening, because Xue Lang said that during pregnancy, maintain a proper Activities are best produced when they are born.

After Xue Lang was exiled to Yuezhou, Princess Pingyang lived in seclusion, at most, she would go to the palace every few days to pay respects to the saint, father and daughter talked together, had a light meal or something, and spent most of the rest of the time in the mansion. go out.

Occasionally, Princess Qin and Princess Xiangyang would come to see her, and Princess Qi had also been here.Su Siniang also brought Su Han's fiancée, Ms. Kong, to visit. What surprised her most was that Li Gang's eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zeng, also came to visit.

"Lady, Miss Liu, please see me."

Princess Pingyang is pruning the potted plants that Xue Lang gave her. They are very ordinary. They don’t use any expensive tree species. They are just ordinary green leafy shrubs with dense branches. full.

Princess Pingyang stopped holding the scissors, looked at it and said: "Let her in."

"Here."

After a while, Lady Officer Liu came in, seeing what Princess Pingyang was busy with, the corners of her mouth twitched: "Ah Liu pays homage to Your Highness."

Princess Pingyang put down the scissors, handed them to the maid to take them away, got up and said, "Why is Ah Liu so ignorant? Excuse me, go and sit over there."

"Here."

Lady Liu couldn't help but glanced at the little tree decorated to look like a rabbit again, her eyes were full of pity, Princess Pingyang naturally noticed her strange eyes, she couldn't help but smile, not paying attention.

But Miss Liu couldn't help asking: "Is this... the handwriting of the concubine?"

Princess Pingyang nodded, and said: "A few days ago I was diagnosed with joy. The son-in-law said that he wanted to make the mansion more childlike, so he cut a lot of wood plants in the shape of animals. Now that the son-in-law is not here, I will help pruning it so that the son-in-law does not have to worry about it." Come back and see Lost."

Although there is not a word of yearning, but there is deep lovesickness in the words.

Miss Liu sighed in her heart, and said with a smile: "I never thought that the son-in-law is still so childlike. I thought the son-in-law is an upright and prudent person."

Princess Pingyang smiled slightly, nodded, and didn't say much, she didn't like to confide in others, and she didn't want to explain to A Liu her son-in-law's personal interests in private.

The two walked to the side hall one after the other and sat down on the chairs.Lady Liu asked: "Dare to ask Your Highness, but do you intend to leave Chang'an?"

There was a great commotion outside, how could Ah Liu not know it!Princess Pingyang nodded, and said: "I do have that intention, I will only leave after the fetus is seated firmly."

Miss Liu counted the date silently, and said, "Isn't it coincident with Yuanzheng?"

Princess Pingyang said: "I will stay in Chang'an to accompany the sage to finish Yuanzheng. I will leave after the beginning of spring. At that time, the road will be clear of ice and snow so that the boat will be able to sail, and my tire will be seated securely, so it will be easy to take care of it on the way."

After hearing this, Lady Liu couldn't help laughing and said: "The son-in-law wants to spend half a year alone in Yuezhou, and Yuan Zhengri is also alone."

Princess Pingyang said with a smile that was not a smile: "Just to let the son-in-law have a long memory, it is a small punishment."

"Small punishment?"

Miss Liu asked curiously.Princess Pingyang smiled indifferently, and said softly: "I think in my son-in-law's mind, it seems that it is not difficult to be alone. It is just for him to experience it. Only when he has practiced it will he be able to talk about it in Japan."

Miss Liu understood, it was because the son-in-law did something that made His Highness angry. Although she was very curious, it was not easy for her to ask about matters between husband and wife.

Thinking about it, Miss Liu said: "Since your Highness has such a plan, then His Highness has already heard about the incident in Beijing recently, so just let it go like this?"

Princess Pingyang put down the water glass and said: "The sage always takes into account the hope of scholars, how to control it? If you want to control it, when Mo Ruo Niang gave birth to me, don't make me a daughter, but if I am not a woman, all the wonderful things in this world , how do you experience it?"

Miss Liu felt sour again, and she deliberately joked: "Your Highness is talking about the son-in-law? If His Highness was born as a man, how can he and the son-in-law become husband and wife, right?"

Princess Pingyang smiled and admitted frankly: "Exactly."

Lady Liu smiled lightly, and said, "It's a pity that the son-in-law couldn't hear His Highness's voice."

Princess Pingyang said calmly: "It's a pity."

The two made fun of each other, and Lady Liu said angrily, "These rotten scholars are so troublesome. With the merits of His Highness, they are just assassins, why are they so noisy!"

Princess Pingyang said: "there are many scholars in the world, but there are only a few governors. If I take one, wouldn't it be missing one? If this precedent is set, there will inevitably be a second or third woman serving as the governor in the future, as things are like this, those people are just planning for a rainy day!"

After finishing speaking, there was a pause, and Princess Pingyang said again: "Furthermore, now that the country has been established, it is no longer the time of war in the past, and it can still be governed during wartime. Now that the country has been established, what is done today will be the teacher of future generations. The situation is like this , if the time is not with me, there is nothing I can do."

Nv Liu said: "Since Your Highness is well aware of the situation, why do you go against the trend?"

Princess Pingyang sighed: "It's just because of the situation."

Miss Liu was puzzled, she cupped her hands and said, "Your Highness, please clarify."

Princess Pingyang sighed: "Ah Liu must have heard about the dispute between the crown prince and King Qin?"

Miss Liu nodded.Princess Pingyang said: "The crown prince is my elder brother, and the king of Qin is my younger brother. Both are siblings from the same mother. What should I do when the two are in conflict?"

Miss Liu was silent.Princess Pingyang sighed: "To save me from trouble, the son-in-law took risks and exiled Yuezhou. He treats me like this. I go against the trend and seek the post of governor, but I just want to protect him."

Miss Liu suddenly realized——

Taizhou is just next door to Yuezhou. Although it is not a prosperous and prosperous place, it is not a barren and barren place either.If His Royal Highness can obtain the position of governor, with the ability of His Highness and son-in-law, with the position of governor of Taizhou, shepherding and guarding the land of a state, it is really the best strategy to attack and defend.

It's a pity that the time is not up to me. Now is not the time when the world was in peace. When the world was in power during the war, His Highness could still be an official. Seeing that the world is about to be settled, how could those rotten scholars be willing to let a woman like the princess be the governor.

Miss Liu wanted to understand His Highness's plan, and felt sorry for His Highness, she said bitterly: "You are a scholar with nothing to use, and a rotten scholar is wrong!"

Princess Pingyang smiled indifferently, and said: "It's not all about losing. I have military exploits, and my son-in-law was exiled again. The saint pities me, but the assassination history fails. If I want to come to the position of governor, I should be allowed. Those people can refute the saint's edict Order, can it be refuted twice? Then what will be the face of the saint Tianwei!"

Miss Liu was stunned again, and saluted Her Highness the Princess in admiration: "Your Highness is wise, I admire you, A Liu!"

Now that the Tang Dynasty has established the country, it is no longer the same as when the country was first established. Times have changed, and it is not easy for Her Royal Highness to take control of the military again.Thinking about it, His Highness's purpose is to gain military power, and the position of governor is not inevitable. His Highness's purpose is only military power from the beginning to the end.

Princess Pingyang waved her hand, she didn't take it seriously, and said indifferently: "Thank you, A Liu, for caring about me, don't worry, I have already died once, and now I have a child with my son-in-law, how can I spare my life! But A Liu, you can find me Have you arrived at Ruyi Langjun?"

Miss Liu's face turned red when she was asked, and she was speechless.
