Rebirth of the Tang Dynasty's strongest consort

Chapter 445
Arriving in front of the Lizheng Hall anxiously, Fang Yiai looked at the familiar palace gate, and thought to himself: "Could it be that the eldest grandson Anye got a copy? In front of the empress, I read a book?"

"My son-in-law, my mother-in-law sent an order to let the son-in-law enter the palace alone." Wang Youdao clasped his hands and answered, without any trace of his previous playful smile.

Fang Yiai nodded slightly, walked into the Lizheng Hall with apprehension, and bumped into Li Lizhi sitting in front of the tea table.

"Princess." Due to the presence of Empress Changsun, Fang Yiai suppressed the joy in her heart, and bowed respectfully to Li Lizhi.

Li Lizhi's wonderful eyes looked forward, seeing Fang Yiai's restraint, she snorted softly, "After returning to Chang'an for more than ten days, why didn't you come to the palace to find me?"

"This." Fang Yiai faltered, thinking, "I can't say that I'm just playing for fun these days, can I?"

"Students don't dare to enter the palace without summons." After thinking for a while, Fang Yiai simply brought out the royal gift and prevaricated Li Lizhi.

"My friend, now I have been promoted to the post-military governor's mansion, with the official title of the second rank, and I still call him a student!" Li Lizhi walked up to Fang Yi'ai with light steps, and grabbed his arm .

Although Fang Yi was happy in his heart, but because of the eldest grandson empress, he could only wave his hands again and again, "No princess."

"The queen mother has gone out, and she won't be back until a while." Li Lizhi saw through Fang Yiai's thoughts, stuck out her tongue, and said with a smile like a flower.

Knowing that Empress Changsun was not in the palace, Fang Yiai's heart sank, "Huh, why didn't you explain earlier."

Stretching out her sleeves to wipe the sweat off her cheeks, Fang Yiai bravely embraced Li Lizhi in her arms, and whispered: "It's getting more and more fresh, do you think about me?"

"What do you think?" Receiving Fang Yiai's compliment, Li Lizhi was both happy and angry, snuggled into her lover's arms, and murmured: "Dear brother, I heard that you were intercepted and killed by officers and soldiers pretending to be rogues on Henan Road?"

As she said that, Li Lizhi patted Fang Yiai's back and chest lightly, and said with worry in her eyes, "Isn't it hurt?"

"What's the point of a mere thief, what's the point of me, the champion of martial arts today!" Facing the considerate care of the beautiful woman, Fang Yiai couldn't help but triumphantly, and said very stinkingly: "I killed them all, even Liu Yuhou was beheaded by this official!"

Fang Yiai's talk started, only to hear the sound of pacing from the inner hall, and then Li Shimin, dressed in a dragon robe, turned directly from behind the screen in the inner hall.

"Fang Dudu, you are so majestic." Li Shimin looked at Fang Yi'ai with a half-smile, seeing the boy holding his precious daughter in his arms, his brows were slightly frowned, but he didn't say anything.

Seeing Li Shimin, Fang Yi's heart trembled suddenly, and he quickly pulled up his robe and knelt down, "Long live my humble minister."

"Come on, get up." Li Shimin said leisurely, then walked to the tea table, sat on the front seat, held up the tea cup and said: "Sit down, the two of you will have a heart-to-heart chat with me."

Standing up, Fang Yiai looked at Li Lizhi beside her, with a flash of complaint in her eyes, as if she was complaining that Li Lizhi didn't tell him the truth.

"Father told me not to say it, how dare people say it?" Li Lizhi saw through Fang Yiai's Xiao Jiujiu, muttered, then walked to the tea table first, took out a chair and sat down.

After sitting down, Fang Yiai bowed her head in silence, looked at Li Shimin several times, and saw that the eternal emperor was just sipping tea and eating cakes, as if waiting for Fang Yiai to speak.

After a long time, seeing that Li Shimin hadn't moved for a long time, Fang Yiai bit the bullet and cupped her hands and said, "Long live, what is the oracle?"

"Stop doing this, I didn't learn anything else when I went to Caozhou this time, but it's better to flatter horses." Li Shimin laughed and cursed, pushed the pastry plate in front of Fang Yiai, and said with a smile: "This time I went to Henan Road to eat. Less bitter, huh?"

"Sharing worries for Long Live, why not talk about suffering." Fang Yiai picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, held it in front of Li Lizhi with both hands, half of it was sincere, and half was for Li Shimin to see.

"I never thought that the magistrate of Caozhou would dare to act like this. Not only did he kill two magistrates, but he would also pretend to be a bandit to intercept you!"

As he said that, Li Shimin's face became sullen, he put down the teacup, and said in a loud voice: "Killing the good and taking the merit, nearly [-]% of the people in Kaocheng County died, and countless people escaped. It can be seen that Henan Province is colluding with each other. It's been covered up."

"The holy cave is far away, and you can see thousands of miles away." After saying a few words of flattery, Fang Yiai got to the point, "When the student returned to Beijing this time, he was going through Caozhou's accounts over the years, and found many mistakes. .”

"Bloody, what's wrong?" Li Shimin asked with frowned eyebrows.

"There is a big difference between the disaster victims in Caozhou and the money reported for disaster relief."

"What! Could it be that the prefect of Caozhou dared to lie about the disaster?"

"Students have limited knowledge. For the rest, you can ask the current prefect of Caozhou."

Seeing Fang Yiai throwing Xie Yaohuan out, Li Shimin gave a wry smile and cursed: "Stinky boy, you are not like Xuanling at all in matters of men and women! What's the matter? Want to ask Zhen to transfer Xie Yaohuan back to you?"

Li Shimin's words came out, Fang Yiai stood up with him, knelt on one knee and said, "I thank you for your kindness."

It wasn't that Fang Yiai acted recklessly, but that he had seen through Li Shimin's thoughts. Xie Yaohuan was originally the confidant of Empress Changsun. With her by Fang Yiai's side, she was more thoughtful than any other secret agent, and the matter was justified. How could a generation of heroes fail to see through the mystery.

"Okay, okay. Get up quickly." Li Shimin nodded and smiled lightly, "How about the widow's orders when the royal conscript returns?"

"Yujia's personal conquest." Fang Yiai rolled his eyes and thought, "Turk is not a small border country like Bohai and Xiliang, and it must take half a year to fight with it."

"Why? Not happy?" Li Shimin stood up slowly, reached out and patted Fang Yiai's shoulder, "Then leave this matter to the queen to decide."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Fang Yiai's response, Li Shimin continued: "Your affairs have been fulfilled. This campaign must be done with great strength, and you will be sent to serve in the army afterward."

"Student, Weichen, I will do my best, and I will never fail the grace of Long Live." Fang Yiai smiled, and her heart was even more happy, "That's all right, Yaohuan will be back from Caozhou soon!"

"Okay, the widow is going to the Zichen Palace to arrange government affairs, so you can report to the queen what the Guanlong faction has done!"

Li Shimin turned his head to look at the inner hall, and said loudly: "My servant, the widow is gone, come out."

"Long live my concubine." Empress Changsun moved her lotus steps lightly, walked out of the inner hall, squatted down to Li Shimin, and glanced at Fang Yiai, but her eyes were thought-provoking.

After Li Shimin left, Empress Changsun returned to the inner hall, and after a while, she returned.

Putting the almanac on the tea table, Empress Changsun said softly, "August [-]th is the Mid-Autumn Festival. It's a good date. How about you marrying Lizhi on Mid-Autumn Festival?"

"Ah?" Fang Yiai was taken aback by the words, looked at Li Lizhi who was at the side, hesitated for a while, and then said: "Student obeys."

"At that time, Qin Jingniang and Yaohuan will also go through the door together." Empress Changsun glared at Fang Yiai, but there was a smile on her face.

As soon as this remark came out, Fang Yiai was terrified and wanted to speak, but was afraid of offending Empress Zhangsun, so in desperation, she had no choice but to stand where she was, bowing her head as a tacit consent to the matter.

"I never expected that they would act so domineeringly. I'm afraid they have suffered a lot when they went to Henan Province this time?" Empress Changsun looked at Fang Yi'ai, her tone was soft and did not mean to blame at all.

Facing the inquiry from the eldest grandson empress, Fang Yixin thought, "I'm afraid the empress has heard the report I made with Wansui earlier, right?"

Thinking of this, Fang Yiai made up his mind and said, "Henan officials don't know everything about Fang Jun, but the prefect of Caozhou acted out of conscience, and the students couldn't bear it, so they decided to deal with him without authorization."

"Well, you did a good job in this matter. The prefect of Caozhou deserves what he deserves." Empress Changsun nodded slightly and continued: "In a few days, the palace will order Yaohuan to be transferred back to Chang'an. The reason why Long Live asked her to be the prefect of Caozhou is because The purpose is to frighten the officials of Henan Province, I think it has been nearly half a month since I came here, and the effect should be achieved."

After finishing speaking, Empress Changsun looked at Li Lizhi and said with a smile: "Didn't you clamor to go to Zhuangyuan Mansion? Now that Fang Jun has entered the palace, why don't you take him to the Imperial Garden?"

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Li Lizhi thanked the Empress Changsun with a smile like a flower, and then, without waiting for Fang Yiai to bid farewell, she grabbed his hand and led her lover out of the Lizheng Hall, "Dear brother, in the Royal Orchard The peonies are blooming very beautifully. Shall we go to enjoy the flowers?"
