My harem can't be this messy

Chapter 768 The Port
After lunch, Li Zhi was dragged to the Clothing Bureau by several daughters. Recently, some little girls love beauty and come here every day to try on clothes.

At this time Li Zhi came, and sat there drinking tea, watching Yunxi leading a few girls, trying on clothes continuously.

A few little princes outside were even more playful. They were divided into two teams and were kicking a ball. This ball evolved from polo. It does not need to ride a horse, but only kicks it with feet. It has been very popular in recent years, especially the little princes. child.

There are a lot of Li Zhi's sons, which have already exceeded the quota he set for himself at the beginning. At this time, they can be divided into two teams.

The princes were sweating profusely from kicking, and the concubines waited for the game to stop, and hurriedly wiped their sweat with distress.

"Hong'er, come here quickly, let's see how hot you are."

Wu Meiniang put her arms around Li Hong, relying on him to sweat profusely, her heart ached so much.

"Concubine Mu, Hong'er is not hot, there is still half time, Concubine Mu, please sit here, Hong'er is going to play."

"Mei Niang!"

"Sister Concubine Shu!"

"Let's see who can win today?"

"That's not certain. The two teams led by Zhong'er and Xiao'er have been fighting to death. It's hard to tell the winner."

"Your Majesty is not here today."

"I was entangled by Yiyang Taiping and the others."

Concubine Xiao Shu covered her lips and smiled, these princesses have been clinging to His Majesty since they grew up, but His Majesty couldn't stand it more than his daughter clinging to him.His Majesty once said that he is a slave to his daughter and there is nothing he can do.

"Guess where they are now?"

"Fashion Bureau!"

"Let's go there and have a look!"

Wu Meiniang looked at Li Hong and the rest of her sons, and nodded. It just so happened that she hadn't been to the clothing bureau for a long time, so she could see what clothes were suitable for her recently.

Concubine Shu took Wu Meiniang's hand, and the two went to the Shangyi Bureau hand in hand.

When he got there, he saw Yiyang wearing a new dress, happily circling in front of his father.

"Father, how are you?"

"Okay, my daughter, she looks good in anything she wears."

"Father, sister wants this dress, An Ding wants it too!"

"Go and ask your aunt Yunxi if there are any clothes that suit you."

At this time, Yun Xi also gave birth to a son and a daughter for His Majesty, but she still stayed in the Shangyi Bureau, and these princesses and princes naturally had to address her respectfully.

"Royal father, concubine mother is here!"

There, Yiyang had already seen Concubine Shu and Wu Zhaoyi, and ran over with her skirts in hand.

Concubine Shu quickly hugged her daughter, Yiyang showed her the dress she was wearing, Concubine Shu couldn't help but praise her.

"Are you two coming to try on clothes too?"

"Well, Your Majesty, why don't you take a look at the stadium later?"

"I'll go over after they have tried on the clothes. I haven't forgotten that those boys have a competition today."

This group of princes has always been full of energy, plus those wealthy children from Chang'an and the sons of envoys in the envoy area, the palace has always been lively.

But Li Zhi is also proud, because in the competitions held in the palace, the youth group has always been won by either the team led by Zhonger or the team led by Xiaoer. How unhappy is a father.

At this time, with his wife and a group of daughters, Li Zhi rushed there naturally. In the last match, as expected, it was his two princes who led the team to compete for the final championship.

When will it be a grand event for all foreign countries to participate, but I don't know if my son will be able to lead the team to win the championship.

At the last moment, Zhong'er was slightly victorious, and this kid was very happy to run to his father to claim credit.

Over the past few years, trade with the New World has become more and more frequent. The routes of seagoing ships have been clearly marked on the sea charts. Monsoons, hidden reefs, and iceberg activity areas have been marked one by one. The businessmen of Datang are using their own efforts to improve this sea area. charts.

The shipyards located along the coast are also rushing to work day and night. In recent years, the tonnage of ships has continued to increase, and new tonnage ships appear almost every year, making Datang's shipping increasingly developed.

The busiest port in the south, looking around at this time, the sails are so dense that people can't see the sky clearly, the dock is busy, and the people working at the dock can almost account for more than half of the population of the port town.

At this time, a young man was looking at the magnificent port and the merchant ships in front of him.

"Your Majesty, the construction of Xingang has been basically completed, and the navy will be able to form training there starting next year."

"Well, I haven't been to the coast for several years, so this is a new scene."

"No, a few years ago, the most prosperous trade here was spices, silk and Kunlun slaves, but now it is ore, wood and coal."

"Kunlun slaves, I don't dare to send these to Chang'an anymore. I went to the Imperial College once and saw two or three mixed-race children in a class. I was shocked at that time. The yellow skin left by my ancestors has been blackened for several lifetimes. not coming back."

"That's the reason, Your Majesty is wise."

"Okay, don't call your majesty anymore, you and I are father and son, I'm here with you, I'm not used to your majesty calling me."

"Father, isn't this talking about business with Father!"

"Xiao'er, if you stay here for another year this year, you will be going back to Chang'an. Your mother misses you too."

"Yes, Father!"

"In a blink of an eye, you brothers have grown up. In the past few years, you have been asked to go out to practice, but have you ever complained about your father?"

"Where, how could Xiaoer blame Father, Father, these years Xiaoer has been here along the coast, and has learned a lot, especially in the shipyard and port. In recent years, Xiaoer has been deeply touched. Shipping is very important to us. It is really important to Datang."

"Well, that's true. Datang has also pushed shipbuilding and maritime trade the most over the years."

"By the way, your imperial sister is married, do you know?"

"Is it Yiyang's imperial sister?"

"Well, the last time Emperor Wencheng brought her son to Chang'an, the boy said that he would not go back to Tibet, but stayed in Chang'an."

"Yiyang married Aunt Huang's son, Xiao'er still remembers that his nickname is Jing'er."

"Haha, this kid is growing strong now. After Tubo belonged to my Tang Dynasty, this kid left home for a while, and I heard that he traveled outside for a few years. When the emperor saw him this time, the kid was a lot darker."

"Yiyang married him, so the father won't let him go back to Tibet."

"I didn't refuse, but he didn't go back, and he is still staying in Jiangxia Palace."

"What about Aunt Huang?"

"Songtsan Gampo is getting old, and his health is getting worse and worse. Your aunt has returned to Tibet. When Songtsan Gampo leaves, I will let her return to Chang'an to settle down."

"The new Zamp?"

"It should have been Jing'er, but if he didn't go back, I had no choice but to revoke Tubo Zanpu, and Tubo will officially be included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty."

"Father, is the direct supervisor?"

"Well, Xiao'er, are you interested in becoming the first great official of Tang Dynasty there?"
