Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 540 Changes in people's hearts
Princess Pingyang sat in the carriage, sighed inwardly, and realized——

Erlang killed his eldest brother and Yuanji, and forced his father to subdue him. Now that he is in power, he is full of ambition, and it is time to be full of ambition!Although she expected that the dispute between the elder brother and Erlang would be irreconcilable, she really didn't expect Erlang to be so ruthless and kill the two of them with his own hands.

Such Erlang really made her palpitate!
She told Xue Lang that she was afraid of such Erlang, not because she was afraid of his power, but because she could no longer trust such Erlang in her heart as before.

On that day, she started an incident in Chang'an, with [-] soldiers, and the power shocked Guanzhong.After welcoming her father into Chang'an, Princess Pingyang did not keep these soldiers and horses, but gave them all to Erlang.At that time, she believed in Erlang, and knew that if something happened to her, Erlang would definitely not stand idly by.Now, she no longer has such confidence!
Erlang is different from the past, and she...is also different from the past, so she shouldn't look at people with the old eyes anymore, it's time to think about it!She is not afraid of Erlang's power in her heart, nor can she flatter Erlang against her will, but flattery is not the only thing in the world, she does not seek to be famous in the world, nor to hold great power, she just wants to live in peace with Youyang , it is not difficult.

Thinking in this way, Princess Pingyang slowly clenched her palms into fists, and her expression became firm.If there was still some hesitation and despair these few days, it was completely gone at this moment.Both Erlang and her have changed, perhaps, both of them need to adapt to this change.

Back in the mansion, Princess Pingyang went directly to the study, and after sitting down, she called out, "Akoo!"

A Kou came in from the door, bowed her head and saluted: "Master!"

Princess Pingyang asked: "Tell me about the situation and changes in Beijing and China since Erlang shot and killed Jiancheng and Yuanji at Xuanwu Gate."

"Here."

A Kou has been paying attention to the changes in the situation in the capital, so he is aware of the situation. When asked at this time, he can answer: "My lord, after the change of Xuanwumen, the sage ordered Qin Wang to be the crown prince." , King Qin entered the East Palace, and all the staff members of Tiance Mansion went up to serve in the East Palace. The East Palace that was originally built as a prince was scattered, and the ministers and aristocratic county officials who supported the establishment of the prince in the ruling and opposition parties were panicked. , in order to seek the power of the dragon, there are also people who close their doors, live in seclusion, and dare not get involved in right and wrong..."

A Kou paused, then continued: "The suzerain of the Chai family, Chai Hong, and the governor of Hangzhou, Luo Fang, both of them had reported the prince to the prince, but the prince did not accept it, and Chai Hong was sent to the prison of the Ministry of Justice for the crime of framing a hero. , Luo Fang was deprived of the post of governor and demoted as county magistrate!"

Princess Pingyang raised her eyebrows slightly, but said nothing. Seeing this, Akoo continued to report herself, and slowly reported all the news she found to Princess Pingyang in a concise manner.After hearing this, Princess Pingyang thought about it and said: "It seems that although Erlang has won, the situation is still not stable!"

A Kou didn't answer, she was a secret guard, not a minister of assistance.Princess Pingyang pondered for a while, and said: "You continue to pay attention to the current situation, step back."

"Here!"

Ako withdrew.Princess Pingyang frowned and thought for a while, then turned her head and asked Chuxue: "Chuxue, did the sage issue an edict to make Erlang the crown prince?"

Chuxue immediately said: "Lady, the sage did not issue an edict, nor did he order the Ministry of Rites to prepare for the canonization ceremony. He only issued an edict at the time of the change of the Xuanwu Gate to change King Qin as the crown prince."

Princess Pingyang understood it, and said calmly: "Mo Mo, I want to write Shu Zou."

"Here!"

Chuxue was grinding ink and laying paper on the side. Princess Pingyang picked up the brush and began to write without any pause. Obviously, she had made a plan in her heart. When the ink is dry, put it on again, and I will present it to the saint in person when I enter the palace tomorrow."

"Here."

Chuxue answered.Princess Pingyang got up from the chair, and while walking towards the backyard, she asked Lixue who was accompanying her, "What are the son-in-law and the young lady doing?"

Lixue replied: "My lady, after waking up from a nap, the young lady was taken to play in the garden by the son-in-law. The son-in-law ordered someone to place a pen, ink, paper and inkstone in the garden, saying that he would take the young lady to paint and play."

Princess Pingyang smiled amusedly, and asked: "Shui Nu is not yet two years old, and he can't even hold a pen steadily. How can he draw? Go and have a look."

"Here!"

Princess Pingyang didn't go back to change clothes, and went directly to the garden.

In the garden, in the gazebo, Xue Lang asked someone to set up a big table, covered it with paper, and asked Lamei to rub the ink.Shui Nu was wearing a light jacket on the upper body and a short shin jacket with white and fat legs exposed on the lower body. He was carried to the table by his father, his little palms and feet were covered with ink, and he was happily jumping on the paper. Come and go.

When Princess Pingyang arrived, what she saw was a daughter who looked like a kitten and a father whose clothes were all stained with ink!The father and daughter obviously had a great time, and their laughter could be heard from a long distance away!
"Youyang..."

Princess Pingyang's cry stopped abruptly after Xue Lang turned her head. Seeing Xue Lang's appearance, she burst into laughter: "You...how did you do this?"

The silly father's hat is crooked, and his bun is a little loose. On Her Highness's handsome face, there is an obvious small palm print on the left side of his face, and there is also a cloud of ink in the middle of his forehead, not to mention his body.

Xue Lang smiled wryly and said: "It's not your daughter's fault! I want to say that the weather is hot, so come to the gazebo by the lake to cool off and cultivate her interest in painting. As a result, your daughter's drawing paper range is slightly larger."

Princess Pingyang gave a "puchi" smile, and the happy baby saw her mother coming, and immediately turned around: "Mother! Mother!"

Hmm...a little face like her father's!However, it was obvious that the ink stains on her face were rubbed on, unlike his father, who was directly covered by the baby girl's little palm!

Shui Nu was having fun, and she didn't intend to let her mother hug her at all. Princess Pingyang didn't intend to hug her daughter either. She moved her footsteps slightly and glanced at the drawing paper...they were all palm prints and footprints, all of which belonged to Shui Nu. "masterpiece".

Seeing that Princess Pingyang had no intention of approaching at all, Xue Lang protested: "I said, mother, why are you standing so far away? Are you acting like this...doesn't it seem too disrespectful?"

Princess Pingyang was unmoved, and said calmly: "The clothes I'm wearing today are light in color, if they are stained with ink, I can't wear them anymore, sir, be frugal."

All right!The way to run a family is to be frugal, and Her Royal Highness is also 666!

Xue Lang gave her a look of "you win if you can talk", and coaxed his daughter: "Baby, Mommy is back, let's go wash and change clothes for nothing, and get ready for dinner!"

Shui Nu was having a good time, how could he want to, twisted and struggled and wanted to continue.However, Xue Lang would not let her continue, let the nanny coax her to go take a bath and change clothes.

Princess Pingyang just came over at this time, looked carefully at her daughter's masterpiece, and asked with a smile: "Then, Master Xue Langxue, the famous painter, how is your daughter's painting talent?"

Xue Lang said with a smile: "My daughter, of course you should wait! This is her first painting, and it has extraordinary meaning. I have to get someone to frame it for collection."

Princess Pingyang smiled again, looked at him with a smile, and asked: "Are you sure you really want to collect it? Are you afraid that your daughter will blame you in the future?"

Xue Lang smiled and said: "I want to collect it! But before collecting it, I have to polish it. It is the first work I have collaborated with my daughter!"

As he spoke, he picked up a brush and sketched it on the drawing paper. After a while, the messy palm prints and footprints turned into a forest. Damn, I'll leave the postscript to you!"

Princess Pingyang stared at him with a smile, took the brush, and began to write——

On June 23rd of the Bingxu year, the summer of the ninth year of Wude, Xue Lang and his eldest daughter painted it in the garden of the Princess Mansion at Pingyang Station.
