Chastity Layman

  Chapter 688 Unrefined

   "Nonsense!"

  East Palace, Chongjiao Hall.

  Changsun Wuji, whose body has begun to put on weight recently, pointed at Qin Lang, his face flushed with anger, "He's still a child, why are you messing around like this?"

  Qin Lang chuckled, "Eldest grandson, don't say that. Your Highness said that it has been more than half a year since he hit the sky with a pillar every morning, and he has run a horse several times. He is truly an adult."

   "Then you shouldn't do such stupid things." Changsun Wuji was very dissatisfied.

"I think there are some things that are better to be blocked than to be unblocked. Occasionally unblocking them will do more good than harm." Qin Lang remembered that in history, there was a fatal blow to Chengqian. An actor in Taichang Temple was happy, and she was more beautiful than a woman. Well, the young Chengqian had been in contact with him for a long time, but he turned him around.

  Although there were many good Longyang in ancient China, many officials even liked to have a caring little boy when they served as officials abroad. Some of them were child prostitutes themselves.

Especially for the crown prince of a country, this kind of thing is even more undesirable, so after this matter was used by the Wei Wang Party and deliberately spread, it did have a great blow to Cheng Qian's reputation, and it also angered Li Shimin. He lost his heart, but this incident caused Chengqian's reputation to plummet again, and also made the emperor further disappointed in him.

  After seeing the impulsiveness displayed by Cheng Qian yesterday, Qin Lang readily arranged for him.

There are more than a hundred beauties in the backyard of his mansion, all of which were gifted by the emperor or others. Qin Lang actually only used seven or eight, such as Yuxiao, Yu Xuanji, Persian beauty Sirin, Roman beauty Anna, and later. Princess Yongni of Tuyuhun and the twin daughters of Yifu Abao who were adopted in Longyou.

   There is also the daughter of the Yang family from Lingnan who was brought back when she went south to the fiefdom, while Mrs. Anong still stayed in Zhennanguan.

  Although he is young, Qin Lang doesn't have that kind of stamp collecting hobby. There are many beauties in the backyard, but he doesn't want to go to one of them when he sees one. Every beauty is a real person, not just a mannequin in a window.

Every once in a while, there will be more beauties in Qin Lang's mansion, but every once in a while, Qin Lang will also choose some to send out, either to his family generals, or to the stewards of the mansion, which can be regarded as finding a beauty for them. A good home, even if it is to be a concubine for a steward or a family general, is better than not being favored by Qin Lang and being a lonely vase in Duke Wei's mansion all the time.

  The beauties who can be sent into Qin Lang's mansion are actually pretty good, otherwise, if you send a woman in casually, it will not be called a gift but an offense.

   It can be said that these beauties are definitely the top choices, and may even surpass the palace people in the emperor's palace.

  Chengqian had never seen this kind of battle before, so he was dazzled by the choice, finally nodded, and in a daze chose a mature and plump Beidi rouge horse. After a night of entertainment, he couldn't get up in the morning.

  Su Lie personally stood guard outside the door all night, and told Qin Lang in the morning that the crown prince was very brave last night, and he acted three times a night. Although the first time seemed to be a bit fast, but the more victorious afterward.

   "Where's that woman?" Changsun Wuji didn't want to hear such nonsense, and felt that Qin Lang was too reckless.

   "The prince likes her very much, and wanted to bring her back when he returned to the palace in the morning, but I stopped her."

   "How do you plan to arrange it?"

   "I have a courtyard in Yongchangfang next to the East Palace. I have arranged for people to clean it up and send them over there. Please take care of me."

  Changsun Wuji frowned, "Are you planning to have a follow-up?"

   "The prince is young, but after the first taste, I am afraid that he will be more reluctant. It is better to make arrangements for His Highness, so as to avoid other mistakes."

   "What is this woman's identity?"

   "This girl's name is Pei Taonu. She used to be a courtesan in the palace. She granted me a status as a reward for His Majesty. However, she has been raised in the backyard since she came into my residence, and she has never been close to her."

   "Surname Pei?"

"The eldest grandson is amazing. She was originally the granddaughter of Pei Ji. After Pei Ji was convicted and dismissed from office and returned to his hometown, he also made friends with demons, killed servants indiscriminately, was impeached by a minister, and finally ended up in exile in Jingzhou with no family. Pei Taonu was arrested. I didn’t enter the palace, but I was sent to the inner teaching workshop to practice dancing, good at sword dance, can play the pipa, can sing, can also dance in neon clothes and feather clothes, has an Ana figure, beautiful appearance, and what’s rare is that she can speak poetry.”

  Pei Ji was awarded the position of Sikong, and he was the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty for ten years, and he was in power for a while. He was the old buddy of the Supreme Emperor. It's a pity that after the Supreme Emperor abdicated, Pei Ji failed to change his role, and ended up in exile in Jingzhou, where he was finally killed by the local rioters.

It is said that Pei Taonu used to be Pei Ji's favorite granddaughter. She is both talented and beautiful, has a great temperament, and has received a good family education. How many famous talents in Wude wanted to ask for marriage, and Pei Ji picked flowers among the talents of five surnames and seven families. Eye.

  In the end, the family changed dramatically and became a teaching workshop.

   Later, it was transferred to Qin Lang's mansion, but Qin Lang felt sorry for his life experience. After all, although he and Pei Ji had no grievances before, they were regarded as ministers in the same palace. Even though they had different positions, they still remembered this point.

   After drinking, Chengqian caught Pei Taonu with a glance, Qin Lang didn't expect it, but it must be said that he has a good eye.

  Although Pei Taonu was once out of the palace, reduced to a teaching workshop, and was given to Qin Lang, she always exudes a noble temperament, and after seeing it, people will inevitably have the desire to push her down and conquer.

"Unexpectedly, you are really generous." Changsun Wuji snorted coldly and mocked Qin Lang, "At first I thought it would be better to send people far away, since you have other arrangements, then I will follow you, but there is one thing you have to pay attention to , People can be raised in Yongchangfang, but it's best for you to arrange for someone to take care of it, and don't let the people in the East Palace be responsible."

   "The most important point is not to get pregnant!"

  The crown prince is just preparing to choose a concubine. At this time, it is naturally inappropriate to make these scandals. After all, this Pei family can only be regarded as a kabuki and an outsider.

  Although people in the Tang Dynasty recognized that concubines were born as bastards, they did not recognize concubines and housewives. It was legal and reasonable to take concubines, and wives could not object to them with jealousy. But it is absolutely impossible to have a mistress to raise a mistress. The wife can bring someone to call the door, and sell the outer room.

   Sons born outside the family are not called bastards, but only illegitimate children, who have no status.

"Secret this matter first, don't let the prince go too often, and don't have any other women for the time being. After a while, I will take the opportunity to talk to the queen to see if I can arrange this Pei family to go to the East Palace. .”

  Qin Lang nodded, "Don't worry, no one will be killed."

  Changsun Wuji was stunned for a moment, then understood the double entendre of life, shook his head angrily, sighed, shook his sleeves and left.

In fact, it's normal for a wealthy family or the royal family to arrange a maidservant to communicate with personnel earlier, but the eldest grandson is dissatisfied with Qin Lang's private arrangement. But outside it has a different meaning.

  ······

  The prince went to the hall.

Overnight, the crown prince grew up. This is the idea that many prime ministers and ministers suddenly came up with today. Chengqian is really different today. He feels as if he is about to fly. No cover up.

  Qin Lang and Cheng Qian's eyes collided in the air, he smiled slightly, Cheng Qian also grinned, and the two of them knew each other.

  The emperor is still on vacation in the Lishan Hot Spring Palace, and the court in the fifth year of Zhenguan is very stable.

Since the new year, the place has been stable, and various places have organized projects to dredge water conservancy, build roads and embankments in winter and spring, and have allocated a lot of special funds, because the imperial court does not recruit civilians to serve for free, and when there are projects, they also use funds to hire people , You can get money for working, and you can eat. During the slack season, everyone is still willing to participate. Not to mention, many of them are basic projects. Building roads, laying bridges, embankments, and dredging rivers and ditches are also beneficial. People's affairs.

  The spring plowing in various places has been completed one after another. There have been no large-scale spring droughts, nor any serious spring cold. The spring plowing went smoothly.

   And the four sides are still stable.

Although there were also Luodou Dongman in Lingnan who started to make trouble again, resisting the government's implementation of household registration and qimin, and refusing to send officials and collect taxes, but Feng An broke out suddenly and quickly swept through several states, joining Xidong A rebellion of tens of thousands of officials was put down.

Killed some barbarians, demoted some people into slavery, and took advantage of the situation to set up more than a dozen counties, and then added more than 20,000 household registrations, and increased the population by more than 100,000. There is no need to deploy troops. Even the Guangzhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion doesn't even need mobilization.

  Although I heard that the barbarians in Lingnan are still very dissatisfied, especially on Hainan Island and in the deep mountains of Lingnan, the barbarians still want to resist, but at least they are stable for the time being.

  In the Western Regions, Si Yehu was very arrogant for the time being, and some did not take Datang seriously.

Fortunately, the forces of Yiwu, Gaochang, Yugushe, and Qibi have all fallen into Datang's side. No matter how fierce Siyehu's troubles are, they are still making troubles in the Western Regions anyway, and will not affect Datang for the time being. Although it had some impact on Silk Road, it was only temporary.

  The officials of Honglu Temple sent by the imperial court to the Western Regions to enshrine Nishi have already set off on the road with the imperial edict.

And Qin Lang's previous strategy for the four countries in Haidong is fermenting and taking effect. With the strong support of Datang, Princess Jindeman of Silla Kingdom is officially the king. From the northern line, troops were dispatched to the south, taking advantage of the transition from the old to the new in Silla, and sent troops to conquer Silla in the south.

  Goguryeo sent an army of 50,000 soldiers, pointing their sword at Niangbi Fortress. A few years ago, the Silla general Jin Shuxuan and his son Jin Yuxin led an army to take this important place in a surprise attack.

  Baekje and Waguo also joined forces at this time to attack Silla. Although Baekje and Goguryeo had not formally formed an alliance, the two sides cooperated tacitly.

  Wa sent 20,000 expeditionary troops to the remaining strongholds of Renna on the peninsula, with the intention of restoring Renna's territory.

  At this time, the king of Gaya, who was canonized by the Tang Dynasty in Chang'an, also brought a group of aristocratic survivors of the Bianhan tribe, boarded a Tang Dynasty ship, loaded with weapons and equipment, and joined the melee.

  For a while, the Korean peninsula is now full of wars and killings.

   Your Majesty.

  Qin Lang spread out his book, and began to perfect his method of reforming the government military system again. The prime ministers discussed seriously and expressed their opinions, while the Crown Prince Chengqian, sitting at the head, listened but lost his mind.

  Pei Taonu's mind is full of images, the young boy who has just experienced human affairs, can't help but feel a pinch when he thinks about it, and his breathing becomes short of breath.

Chengqian, who was dry-mouthed, wanted to end the discussion right away, and then rushed to meet Pei Taonu. He had no interest in the Four Sea Kingdoms, the Gaya, the Western Regions, and the Siyehu Khan. up.
