According to historical records, when the Daming Palace was built to its peak, it was three times the size of the later Forbidden City. The magnificent Daming Palace had a curved back and high eaves. It complemented the epic achievements of the early Tang Dynasty and produced a magnificent poem that shook China.
The Supreme Liquid Pool was located in the northern part of the Great Ming Palace. It was the most beautiful pool garden in the Great Ming Palace.
In the distance, half of the sun had already disappeared from the horizon, and was currently struggling to burn and release its last rays of light. The Taiye Pool, which was usually quiet and secluded, was already bustling with noise before the sun had even set. The civil and military officials of the Great Tang and the vassal kings who had come from all over the world had brought their wives and children to celebrate the new year with Li Shimin, Empress Zhangsun, and the newly crowned Crown Prince Li Zhi.
The golden sunlight covered the luxurious palace above the Supreme Liquid Lake with a layer of rosy clouds, and it also gave the civil and military officials a different kind of mood.
The ministers of the King of Wei's party were in a particularly heavy mood at this moment. They were at a loss and did not know where they were. It was not easy for them to bring down Li Chengqian, but they did not expect that their efforts would fail at the last step and the fruit would be plucked by Li Zhi.
The smarter ones were thinking about how to distance themselves from Li Tai and curry favor with Li Zhi. Those who were loyal were now rethinking how to kick the new Crown Prince out of his position. As for those fence-sitters who were originally loitering between Li Chengqian and Li Tai, they all pretended not to know Li Tai, who was standing in a corner of the hall with a gloomy face, as if someone owed him five million.
Li Tai had lost weight. Miraculously, he had lost weight. His originally round, fair, and tender face had also turned sallow, like bacon that had been preserved for a long time. He could now see his eyeballs with his two small eyes, but the resentment in his eyes could be seen even more clearly.
"This Prince is the second son of the Di family, and the throne belongs to This Prince. What right do you have to deprive This Prince of his position as Crown Prince? What did This Prince do wrong? Father, how biased are you? How ruthless!"
Li Tai looked around at the civil and military officials who usually fawned over him. Now, they all treated him as a god of plague. They scattered and kept a respectful distance from him. It was as if the area within ten feet of Li Tai had become God's Forbidden Zone.
Li Tai's anger surged. He really wanted to find a knife and directly cut these villains into pieces.
"The Emperor has arrived!"
"The Empress has arrived."
"His Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"
The sharp voice faded away, and a figure appeared at the door of the hall. He was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and had a big belly. He strode in like a dragon and a tiger. Behind him were the palace maids who were holding a "barrier fan" and following closely behind him. Behind him were the Empress's ceremonial guards. They had not yet entered, but all the officials were kneeling down and bowing.
"Long live Your Majesty!"
"The Empress is a thousand years old, a thousand years old."
" Your Highness, a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand years!"
"Dear ministers, please rise."
Thank you, Your Majesty."
After a round of greetings, Li Shimin was the first to speak,"Tonight is the last night of the 16th year of Zhenguan. After tonight, it will be the 17th year of Zhenguan. Our Great Tang has been established for 25 years.”
"Your Majesty, you praise me. I really don't deserve it.”The ministers replied humbly. Li Zhi, who was sitting on the right side of Li Shimin, raised his eyebrows. Clean and tidy, without a trace of noise, the culture of officialdom?
"Back then, Wang Shichong led 200,000 troops to besiege Gongxian County. I rode a horse alone and led 700 tigers to charge straight at the commander's flag. At that time, I thought I would die for sure. Who knew that the heavens would protect my Tang Empire?"
Li Zhi and the ministers looked at Li Shi Min with admiration, but they sighed in their hearts: "Sigh, I talk about it every year. Why don't you change it to something new? My ears are already worn out and I can't listen.”
He turned his head and swept his gaze across the officials. Suddenly, his eyes lit up as a beautiful figure appeared in front of him.
Slightly raising her head, her beautiful face was flushed red and her starry eyes were like waves as she stared fiercely at Li Zhi. She was pouting her mouth as she practiced holding her breath. As expected of a descendant of the Xiao family who had produced a peerless beauty like Empress Xiao. The little girl was naturally beautiful and was none other than Xiao Shuran, who had a close relationship with Li Zhi.
Ever since she married Wu Meiniang, this little devil had publicly announced in Chang 'an that she would never marry again. She had become a nun and even gave herself a Daoist name,"Hen Nu." This Daoist name was too obvious. Now that she was already sixteen, other girls were already talking about marriage, but she had always been (who dared to touch a pig's foot woman? Did she want to die?)）
Looking at this girl, Li Zhi felt both happy and pitiful. He was a man, after all. With a stunning female infatuated waiting for him, the vanity in his heart would soar.
Li Zhi stared at Xiao Shuran and winked. He quietly made a gesture that others couldn't understand. It was a code that the two of them often played when they were young.
"Alright, the banquet is over.”
"I don't want your broken things! Stinky slave!" The little demoness's face rose a little higher as she replied fiercely with a hand gesture. Sigh, she was too tsundere.
"…Be good, listen to me. Aren't I just apologizing to Miss?”
"Who asked you to anger me! I don't accept it." His chin started to lower a little. Hmm, his attitude was a little soft. It was a good sign.
"Alright, alright, Little Shuran. If you continue to be angry, wrinkles will appear at the corners of your eyes.”
The little demoness quickly put her hands on her face and wiped her face randomly. She glared at me angrily.
She continued to gesture,"If it's not pretty, then it's not pretty. No one likes it anyway…" As she spoke, her small mouth began to pout again, scaring Li Zhi into begging for mercy."My great aunt, I'm begging you. If you continue to cry like this, it'll be strange if your father doesn't rust on my butt.”
As he said that, he quickly turned his head around. There were so many people around. Well, he felt a little guilty. Fortunately, the ministers were a little dizzy from Li Shiming's great achievements.
She looked at Old Dou again, afraid that he would find out that she was hitting on his sister while he was indulging in himself. That would be hard to explain.
It seemed that he was getting on in years and had many things to do. He should continue to court his little devil. He should consider letting this little girl enter the family this year. Her identity was different. She had to have a new aura.
Looking at Li Zhi's ugly face, the little devil suddenly snorted and smiled. Fortunately, her voice was not loud, so no one noticed. When she came to her senses, her small face turned serious again. Her big, watery eyes blinked, and her long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings.
"You're not crying anymore?" He quickly bared his six big white teeth at this girl to show his iron-blooded loyalty.
"Humph!" She rolled her lively eyes and looked up at the sky. She raised her head again. Alright, she was being arrogant again.
Not long after, he lowered his head and turned his face to me. His face softened as if it had seeped into a stream of hot spring water."If you're unhappy with me, you can tell me. Why are you always avoiding me?”The little demoness was very persistent. She blushed, puffed up her cheeks, and gritted her teeth as she stared at Little Li.
" Well, I'm not going to stomp you. I'm just…" He scratched his head. It was too much of a headache. How could he say this?
"But what? You only know how to bully Shuran. Shuran used to have a bad temper, but you couldn't give in to her. Didn't you always say that you were a gentleman? " Besides, you can tell me if you're dissatisfied with me…I know that my temper is not very good, but…" Her eyes were lowered, and crystal dew rolled on her long and thick eyelashes. She was exceptionally weak, so weak that it made one's heart ache. She could not even make any hand gestures.
Looking at this little devil who was so angry that she was crying, Li Zhi felt guilty and sad.
In the past, even if he handed her a glass of water, people would say that he was a toad lusting after swan meat. Compared to this little girl, the school belles in his previous life were like floating clouds.
Anyone who saw this little girl would praise her,""You have such good spiritual energy."
Look at the situation now. What else do you want from her? Such a beautiful girl is apologizing to you. If you say anything more, you won't have the face to sit down.
As for Wu Mei Niang, I'm not Old Fang. I'm from the 90s who grew up under the banner of the revolution in the 21st century. At most, I'll shout,"Fire at me." What else could there be? With a pretty girl in front of me, if I let her go, those Tang brothers who gave me recommendation votes would curse me to death. I'll accept it.
Looking at that girl again, her small mouth was still opening and closing. The breath she breathed out was like a thousand miles sound transmission technique blowing into my heart. Subconsciously, I reached out my hand and hugged her.
"Well, actually, I just think that you're too young. I want to wait a few years before taking you into the palace.”
In fact, the reason for this was that Li Zhi couldn't handle Wu Meiniang, the beautiful lady, in the past. He wanted to kill this little devil. Otherwise, it would be like in history. When two strong women got together, they would definitely turn the tables. He had to teach Wu Meiniang well and confirm her status as the big sister. Only then would the harem be safe.
In addition, his courage was still being nurtured at that time, and he was really too busy with his career, so he could only let the little girl suffer. However, now that he was strong, his courage was fat, and even his little brother was strong. This was the effect of a golden partner. There was no need to be afraid of a girl.
This girl wasn't Little Yue Yue, what was there to hesitate about? According to Li Zhi's arrogant style, not to mention Wu Meiniang, even if her elder sister Wu Liniang and younger sister Wu Biniang came out together, I would still be coquettish and lewd.
"What is it? Are you willing to marry me?" Looking at Li Zhi's gesture, the little devil could not help but open her mouth. She wanted to jump but could not. In the end, she could only throw a bunch of autumn spinach to Li Zhi in ecstasy.
"Yes, yes. How about…I go to you tomorrow to apologize?”She listened carefully. It seemed like Old Bean was about to finish. There might be more things to do tonight.
"No!" The little demoness 'eyebrows were raised as she shook her head vigorously, causing her breasts to tremble.
Oh my god, it's been a while since I last saw her, and she's already so rich. Looking at that charming but very young face, I really want it. Isn't this the childish face and huge breasts that I've always dreamed of?
"Why?" There's no need to be in such a hurry. I'm still a virgin. I'll be shy.
"Why do we have to wait until tomorrow?”The little girl raised her beautiful face, and a charming blush flashed across her face.
" This…" Hesitated. This lord hesitated. He wanted it now. Li Zhi clutched the little deer in his heart and swept his gaze across the drowsy officials of the Tang Empire. Now? It was too difficult. Even Paris Hilton was not so bold.
" Who asked you to hide from me for so long? If you hadn't married that Wu Mei Niang first, would I have become a sister-in-law? Hmph…" The little demoness pouted. Her eyebrows were raised, and her eyes were curved. Her dimples appeared, and she was once again arrogant.
She had already recovered the aura that a tsundere little devil should have. The cold arrogance between her brows was the cold arrogance that belonged to Lan Ling's Xiao family's eldest daughter. She was stunningly beautiful and arrogant to the point that her heart was moved. Suddenly, she seemed to have a little epiphany. She was indeed the Xiao Shuran in history, the cold and arrogant and beautiful Consort Xiao Shu. Even if she was going to be shattered by Wu Zetian (that is, she was going to be turned into a human stick and stuffed into a jar)
She was no longer as domineering as she used to be, and she no longer had the pride on the surface. She had shed the thorns all over her body for him, and she had become a little hedgehog that had shed her thorns for him.
Looking at the little devil, Li Zhi was very gratified. He was extremely satisfied. She was his little devil, and she always had been. No one could touch her.
Looking at his cold and arrogant appearance, This Highness almost wanted to pick up this girl's huge breasts and bite them fiercely. Only then could I express the lascivious coquettishness in my heart.
"What are you looking at?"
The little devil finally lost to this prince's tender and bright eyes that belonged to a man. Her face began to turn red, and her eyes drooped down. Her cold arrogance was restrained. Hehe, a little hedgehog without thorns, this grey wolf is lucky to have a good meal.
Just as their eyes met, Li Zhi suddenly felt that someone was staring at him. He quickly sat up straight and followed the gaze as if nothing had happened.
"Li Tai?"
Li Zhi frowned. It seemed that his fourth brother hated him to the core. His gaze was just like how he looked at Liu Yifei back then. He was just short of opening his bloody mouth and drooling all over the ground to swallow him.
? What did he mean? He was smiling at him. Did he think that he would be scared? Was he stupid?
Poor child. His IQ was not high to begin with. Now, with the stimulation, it was over. Could he still take care of himself in the future?
Just as he was fantasizing about the King of Wei, the old man Li Shimin finally had enough of his flirtatious past. In the end, he looked at Li Zhilai and said,"It's all in the past.”
Hmm?
Could it be that Mao Taizu had also transmigrated?
"Imperial Father, your son has something to say." The King of Wei, Li Tai, suddenly knelt down. Li Shi Min was stunned for a moment before he realized that the poor kid in front of him was his fourth son, Li Tai. He had lost a lot of weight.
Li Zhi, who was standing at the side, suddenly had a bad feeling. What was this guy trying to do?
"Green Sparrow, what's the matter?" Looking at Li Tai, Li Shi Min felt a little sympathetic when he remembered that he had taken away his position as Crown Prince.
"Imperial Father, this son is already twenty-four years old this year, but I still don't have a concubine. "Li Tai looked at Li Shiming with a miserable expression. His eyes were so aggrieved that he was about to cry. Damn it, how could he be so fast?
Li Zhi's heart grew more and more nervous.
"Which family's daughter has Qing Que taken a fancy to? This one will definitely approve.”Li Shiming's heart trembled even more after being electrocuted.
"The green sparrow has taken a fancy to the daughter of the Xiao family of Lanling, Xiao Shuran.”Li Tai roared loudly, his voice filled with joy.
The face of the little demoness in the crowd instantly turned pale. Her body could not help but sway three times as she looked at Li Zhi for help.
Some of the people who knew the situation between the two could not help but look at Li Zhi who was sitting at the side. The rest of the people also started to discuss.
Li Shi Min didn't know much about the situation and was about to nod in agreement.
Li Zhi rubbed his nose. His face was ashen and he looked a little ferocious. He stood up and walked over to Li Shiming. In the middle of the hall, in front of all the officials, he didn't even look at Li Tai who was kneeling at his feet.
"I don't agree."
