Stir-fried Datang: The Strongest Daughter

Chapter 494 The End of the Old Era

In the early autumn of the 16th year of Zhenguan, Li Tai was born.

Li Chengqian and Yang Xiaoran sent Li Tai away according to Li Shimin's wishes.

It was another autumn, just like the time Yang Xiaoran was forced to leave Beijing in the second year of Zhenguan.On the Baqiao, there are no catkins flying like snow falling, but there is only desolation.

As if to add atmosphere to this parting, Li Tai's mood was not too high.

Concubine Wei's face remained rigid, she was only half a step away from Li Tai, she turned her head to look at Baozhu's slightly protruding belly, a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes.

Baozhu is pregnant for more than four months.Originally, Yang Xiaoran wanted to keep her in the capital, but this girl has a very twisted temper. She has a husband and forgets her sisters, and refuses to stay in the capital. She insists on going to Lingnan with Li Tai.

Fortunately, the sea trade is now developed, and later on it will be by water, and the toss and turns on the road are not too much.Moreover, she is in good health, and she is pregnant with Li Tai's first child. Li Tai has always regarded her as a treasure, so naturally she will not make mistakes in this.

It's just that Princess Wei...

Yang Xiaoran looked at the flashing look in her eyes, sneered in his heart, and said: "Brother Tai, the journey is long and high, so I will leave my younger sister to you. She is the first child. Just be careful."

The implication is that something is wrong with Baozhu and the child in her belly, and the princess and concubine want to settle accounts with you, Princess Wei.

Concubine Wei is a smart person, how could she fail to hear the warning in the words of the Crown Princess?
His face turned cold again, and he felt unwilling, but what could he do?Who made her upset?Haven't been pregnant for years.If it wasn't for the orb, she would have wondered if it was her fault.

But as soon as Baozhu had it, her situation became more and more embarrassing.But thinking that she is a aunt, if she has never had a child, this child may be brought up by her knees!
Moreover, the king was obviously confused by this temptress, she could see it like her own eyeballs, so she was almost spoiled every night.If it wasn't for the first day of junior high school, it would be the rule to go to her place on the fifteenth day. She has no doubt that her husband will spoil Feng Ruren alone.

So no matter how jealous she was, she didn't dare to make fun of the eldest prince.If he dared to make a move, the end would be extremely miserable.

Thinking of this, she blessed Fushen and said: "Princess Concubine, please rest assured, I will definitely take good care of Feng Ruren."

Yang Xiaoran nodded, and said: "Princess Wei is from a famous family, knowledgeable and reasonable, and I can rest assured that the orb will be handed over to you. If you have any difficulties over there, please write to me, as long as I can help."

"Thank you, princess."

Baozhu glanced at Yang Xiaoran gratefully, and opened her mouth, thinking she was going to say something to thank her!In the end, after holding back for a long time, he said, "Miss, the cat is getting old, you have to take good care of her..."

The corner of Yang Xiaoran's mouth twitched, feeling worried.

Are babies not as good as cat eggs?This stinky girl doesn't want to say a sad farewell to her, so she should care about herself anyway!

Hey!
My heart is bitter!
be happy!
Li Chengqian looked at Li Tai, and a trace of reluctance flashed in his clear eyes.

In the blink of an eye, the younger brother of the same mother has also grown up, and it is time to part.

He stretched out his hand, patted Li Tai's shoulder, and said, "Brother Tai, take care!"

"Well, brother, take care too!"

Li Tai smiled and said: "Brother, don't worry, the younger brother will fulfill his mission when he arrives in the fief. Once the rear is stable, he will take the route of Annan and conquer all parts of East Asia via Luzon."

Yang Xiaoran smiled and said, "There are now a group of monkeys drinking blood."

He pursed his lips, and said again: "However, although civilization is not yet developed, it is also useful. The Taoist priests brought there may be useful, and war may not be necessary."

Li Tai laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, I don't know what to do with your brain? It's really ugly! But are those natives so easy to subdue? Just give them something to eat?"

Li Chengqian laughed and said: "If you don't accept it, you can beat it, and if you convince it, you can give me some benefits..."

Li Tai shuddered, his heart was broken.

The eldest brother married the eldest sister-in-law, and the painting style became more and more dark.

Such bloody words are said so calmly, shouldn't it be something to light a candle for those natives?

But thinking of his sister-in-law's description, Li Tai also felt that it would be a waste of money for those people to occupy the place.Rice can be triple-cropped, and sugarcane and many economic plants can be grown. Those indigenous people will not starve to death if they don’t work. Why should they occupy such a good place?
The people in our Tang Dynasty are so industrious, and they will become a family after they learn more about it.I don't know what's interesting, hehe...

The murderous intent in Li Tai's eyes flashed by. In this era that emphasizes military merit, even a prince is eager for military merit!

"Brother Tai went there, we must fix a few ports, and I will ask my father to send some shipwrights to..."

Li Chengqian ordered, "The agronomy officials brought here are all experienced... The students from Xiaoqingzhuang are also people with lofty ideals. They are willing to follow you to Lingnan. You must not treat them badly. These students are all from my Tang Dynasty. Your baby is the future of our Huaxia clan..."

Seeing that his younger brother was really about to leave, the taciturn Li Chengqian suddenly turned into a nagging aunt, "If you don't have enough money, remember to write. My brother has saved some money over the years..."

Seeing how his brother cared about him so much, Li Tai couldn't help feeling ashamed of how jealous he was when he was a child.Thinking of my mother passing away, my father is getting old, and I will only depend on my elder brother and a few younger siblings in the future, and I feel very uncomfortable in my heart.

With red eyes, he cupped his hands and said: "Brother, there will be a farewell to sending you thousands of miles away. You must take care of yourself in the capital and beware of villains. Brother, I will go to Lingnan now..."

Then he clenched his fists and said, "If I don't find overseas places, my younger brother will never return to Beijing in his lifetime."

This is tantamount to showing loyalty to his elder brother, and it also shows that he has absolutely no ambition to hope for the throne.I just hope that after the elder brother ascends the throne, don't forget the hard work of his younger brother.

Yang Xiaoran sighed, stretched out his hand on tiptoe, and struck Li Tai's forehead magically, staring and said: "Stinky boy, what are you playing tricks on? They are brothers of the same father and mother. Could it be that your elder brother is jealous of you?" ? Don't be smug, you fat man!"

"puff!"

After Yang Xiaoran was disturbed like this, the sad atmosphere dissipated quite a bit.Baozhu covered her mouth and laughed, her eyes were still squeezed towards Li Tai.

Li Tai's face darkened, and he said embarrassingly: "Sister-in-law, I am also the Prince of Tang Dynasty after all, so you keep calling me a nickname when I was a child, isn't it okay?"

"Elder sister-in-law is like a mother, but Grandpa said so. You brat, go to Lingnan and work hard, don't lose to Li You and the others, or I won't spare you! Baozhu has been with me for many years, and he is more proficient in mathematics, physics and chemistry than you. If you still can’t do well with such a baby on the road, you might as well jump into the sea and commit suicide.”

Li Chengqian smiled and nodded, "Your sister-in-law is right! But be careful of those people in Qiongzhou..."

Li Tai snorted coldly, and said: "They are eager to make meritorious service now, so I will find something for them to do when I go. Naturally, I will treat them well if they do well. There is always a shortage of followers in East Asia. Officials, but it would be good to be a guest of this king's palace and give advice."

Then he grinned, showing his white teeth, and said: "After all, talents are scarce. The Cui family who can write and count, and the Zheng family have quite a few. Waste must be utilized."

Seeing Li Tai like this, Li Chengqian laughed, and said: "It seems that I don't have to worry about you, but worry about them instead."

After a pause, he continued: "Do you know that you have to take the medicine given by your sister-in-law every day? Everyone in the family uses it, and there is a lot of miasma in Lingnan. Although the medicine you brought with you is not as effective as the secret medicine, it can also strengthen your body."

As he spoke, he lowered his voice and said: "There are not many bottles of secret medicine, but it is for self-protection, don't take it out unless it is absolutely necessary..."

Li Tai was moved in his heart.Knowing that one bottle of this secret medicine is less than one bottle, and there are not many bottles in this world, my brother and sister-in-law even kept a bottle for me. This kind of friendship is too great, and I feel even more ashamed.

Arching his hands, he choked up and said, "Thank you, brother and sister-in-law!"

"It's getting late, let's go..."

Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "When you return from the attack, Gu will still be here to welcome you."

"Brother, sister-in-law, take care!"

"Brother Tai, take care!"

The long convoy has begun.Because Li Tai has other intentions in going to Lingnan, and he is Li Er's favorite son, so the size of this team is also strong enough.There are not only skilled craftsmen, but also many students of Qingshan Academy and auxiliary officials.

As for the palace maids, there were countless servants.After walking for a long time, this huge team gradually disappeared from the eyes of Li Chengqian and Yang Xiaoran.

"Parting is the saddest..."

Yang Xiaoran murmured: "This fat man hates it when he is in front of him, but after he left, he felt a little sad in his heart."

Li Chengqian sighed slightly, "That's why I only sent the ninth brother and a few younger sisters to the gate of the palace, otherwise I don't know how to cry when I get here. Sizi's health is getting worse, and I am also worried. I don't know how to cry." Can my destiny be changed..."

"After her mother passed away, she was often sad. This kind of grief is the most painful..."

Yang Xiaoran murmured: "Fortunately, she was nursed well in the early years, her body is not as weak as it was said in the history, and she has never had a relapse of gas disease, so she should be able to escape the entanglement of fate, right?"

"hope so……"

Li Chengqian watched the huge team finally dissipate into a small dot, turned around slowly, stretched out his hand and said, "Go back..."

"kindness……"

Yang Xiaoran was led into the carriage by him, and the two of them didn't speak much.

After all, it is not the future, no cars, no planes, no high-speed rail.The parting of this era often means that we will never see each other again in a lifetime.Those adult princes are not allowed to come back without the permission of the emperor, otherwise they will be suspected of rebellion.

Just like Li You and the others, even if their mother died, they were absolutely not allowed to step out of the fief without the permission of the emperor, let alone return to Beijing for the funeral.

Rules are rules, even if they sometimes seem unreasonable, but in this era where etiquette is the standard everywhere, it is a powerful factor in maintaining social stability.

Li Tai left, leaving with his dream of going to sea.

The 16 years of Zhenguan passed in such a sad atmosphere.But soon, the old chapter will be turned, and a new era will come!This is destined to be a great era!
