Li You's Tang Dynasty

Chapter 24

"Concubine Yin, are you alright?"

In Chenxi Palace, Li Shimin personally came to visit Concubine Yinde. However, Li Shimin only had one favorite woman in his life, and that was Empress Changsun. Although Li Shimin had six concubines in total, Concubine Yinde ranked second, after Concubine Yang.

But Concubine Yinde is guilty. Although Concubine Yinde was named a noble concubine, a noble concubine is not the same as a favorite concubine. The harem has been a system since ancient times. Even if there is no favorite concubine, the emperor will not keep the position of fourth concubine empty Not closed.

In history, there are many concubines who are in high positions but have no favor. If you look at the concubines of the emperors in the Tang Dynasty, except for Yang Guifei of Tang Xuanzong and Dugu Guifei of Tang Daizong, the other emperors' concubines were not favored. Can't find any favored deeds.

What's more, you can see the clue from Li You's rebellion. It was also a rebellion. Li You ended up being deposed as a commoner after being punished, and his biological mother was surrendered.

Later, Li Shimin presented Luo Shitou, a commoner in Qizhou who dared to denounce Li You's crimes to his face and tried to kill Li You, as the governor of Bozhou. You Bingcao was promoted to governor of Bazhou all at once, and everyone who assisted Du Xingmin in capturing Li You also received generous rewards.

On the other hand, after Li Chengqian rebelled, Li Shimin tried everything possible to save his life. Lai Ji, who spoke for Li Chengqian, was valued by Tang Taizong, and his official position was constantly promoted. Co-authored "Book of Jin" with Linghu Defen and others.

So it can be concluded that Concubine Yin's status in the palace is not very high.

This time Concubine Yin pretended to be sick for her son, but she was actually walking a tightrope. If Li Shimin ignored her, she didn't know how to see her son again.

Fortunately, Concubine Yin made the right bet this time, because Li Shimin also missed his son at one time, and only then did he feel that Concubine Yin's missing son became ill, so he took a little time out of his busy schedule to visit Concubine Yin .

Concubine Yin here also tried her best to show her own powerlessness, and she was tortured by her illness, just after Li Shimin asked Concubine Yin, are you okay.

Concubine Yin showed her acting skills, said with all her strength that she was fine, and then tried to struggle, but couldn't. In the end, Concubine Yin's performance won Li Shimin's sympathy.

Here Li Shimin looked at Concubine Yin, who was seriously ill, and thought about Li You's "Golden Thread Clothes". Finally, Li Shimin sighed and said, "Concubine Yin, don't worry, as long as you take care of your body , then I will make an exception and let Li You come to see you. Now that your body is like this, even if Li You comes, your mother and son will not be able to speak, which will make Li You worry.

So you have to take good care of your body, how about meeting Li You properly? "

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Concubine Yin was very excited, with tears in her eyes.

In this way, Li Shimin's will spread throughout the palace, and the corner of Concubine Yan Xian's mouth showed a hint of joy when she got the news. At this time, Concubine Yan Xian looked at the milk in front of her, and the sesame cake smiled slightly: "Give these to Jin Princess Yang, she likes to eat these, send some more.!"

"Boom. Boom.!"

Li You woke up in Datang again one day, but it was still the sound of street drums that woke him up, followed by the sound of crowds. Although both the East Market and West Market were the strongest markets in Datang, they were still compared to the East Market.

There are a lot of people in West Market.

Among them, Hu merchants will occupy a large part. After these Hu merchants entered the city, they naturally settled in the west of the city, settled down, set up a business, preached and solved doubts.According to records, there are a total of 5 Hu temples in the southwest corner of Buzhengfang, Liquanfang, Puningfang and other places in Chang'an City, most of which are close to the west of the city.

In this way, relying on a large number of foreigners, there is a huge flow of people around the West Market, which has the conditions for multiculturalism and a more vigorous and strong supply demand.

In addition, there are many civilian industries in West Market, such as the coat store, Doujiadian fruit shop, Zhangjialou food store, Jingxianzhai decoration store, fortune teller Lao Li, etc.

From the traditional industries of clothing, food, housing and transportation, to the well-off industry of home furnishing, and even the fortune-telling old Li who has gone out of the world, they can all get a bite of food in the West Market, which is enough to see the popularity of the West Market and the prosperity of Chang'an.

To put it simply: the hawkers in the West Market do business every day and take a few orders every day;

"Ah!" Li You stretched comfortably, but just when Li You was about to get up, Xiao Baoer ran into Li You's room in a hurry.

"The teacher is not good!"

"What's the matter, what happened?" Li You didn't know what happened, so he got up and looked at Xiao Bao'er and asked.

And Xiao Baoer did say something extraordinary.

"Teacher, three restaurants in the West Market have already started grilling lamb kebabs this morning!"

"Huh?" Xiao Baoer's words stunned Li You. To be honest, Li You never expected that this roast mutton would be plagiarized. In fact, Li You thought the ancients were too simple.

Li You's mutton skewers are actually very simple. The seasonings are five-spice powder and cumin. Just look at what seasonings Xiao Yan bought, but it is very easy to copy. In addition, the oven is simple and the baking process is also simple, so copy Plagiarism is easy.

The ancients are the ancestors of barbecue, Li You was caught off guard this time.

"These people don't talk about martial arts too much. What about your mother and sister?"

"Mother and sister have already gone to the three families to reason with anger, but the three families said that kebabs are not unique to our family, so why should we listen to our family, and directly drove my mother and sister to death up.

However, this matter really does not need to listen to our family.

My mother went to Marquis Wu, and Marquis Wu also said that everyone was doing the same business, and they couldn't do anything to each other. Could it be that your family is a restaurant, and others can't do it?Now my sister and mother are sighing below. "

"Oh, let me go down and have a look too!" After speaking, Li You got up, and Xiao Baoer obediently helped Li You put on the clothes.

After going downstairs, Li You found Chunniang and Xiao Yan sitting in the hall and sighing. Seeing Li You coming down, Chunniang got up and looked at Li You aggrievedly: "Mr. Li is up, slave to prepare Snacks."

"Not busy..." Li You looked at Chun Niang with a smile and said, "I already know that someone imitated our kebabs. This business may be difficult, but don't worry, Chun Niang. I already have an idea, this idea Although it is only temporary, I will definitely find a good business for Chun Niang that can support the whole family in the temporary time."

"Really?" Chunniang finally smiled at Li You through tears.

Xiao Yan on the side was also slightly touched and asked: "Do you really have an idea?"

"Hehe...!" Li You smiled: "Don't worry, I said I have an idea, and I have an idea. You still buy mutton today. Wait until the evening to see how I can grab all the business."
