Li Zhi, don't be a coward

The title of "Tian Khan" originally belonged to Li Shimin alone.

In the fourth year of Zhenguan, when Li Jing and many famous generals of the Tang Dynasty wiped out the Turks and captured Jieli Khan alive, and the northern part of the Tang Dynasty was free from trouble, the rulers of many neighboring countries congratulated the Tang Dynasty together, and jointly gave Li Shimin an honorary title, " God Khan".

Later Li Shimin passed away, but the title of "Tian Khan" did not disappear.

It became the hereditary honorific title of the emperors of the Tang Dynasty.Every Tang emperor who came to the throne was called "Tian Khan" by the foreign countries.

"Tian Khan" was originally Turkic, meaning the most honorable and sole co-lord in the world.

Later, when the dynasty changed, as long as the Central Plains dynasty was strong, the neighboring countries all honored the emperor as Tian Khan, and this title continued until the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, the later so-called Tian Khan inevitably changed its taste, and took on a bit of utilitarianism, just like Party A in the contract, no matter how disgusting or wretched, Party B will collectively call him "father".

Today, it is Li Zhi who inherits the title of "Tian Khan".

Today's Chang'an City is not a festival, but the city suddenly became lively.

Envoys from all over the world came to the capital of the Tang Dynasty to congratulate the emperor. Although it was commonplace for the Tang Dynasty, it was still a relatively solemn day.

Therefore, on the streets and alleys of Chang'an City where there were few cars and horses, the people who hid at home for the winter came out one after another. People gathered on both sides of Suzaku Avenue, tiptoeing curiously to watch the excitement.

Teams of envoys drove from Suzaku Avenue to Taiji Palace. Each team was dressed differently, and the people guessed which vassal state sent them to congratulate them based on the clothes of the team of envoys.

The team of envoys was long and mighty. Except for the envoys and entourages, most of the long chariots and horses were presents from vassal states to the emperor of Tang Dynasty.

The barbarian country of Huawai, of course, can't produce any good things. The gifts on the horses and horses seem to be many, but they are just some sheepskins, cowskins and wild animal skins, as well as local grains and special products. The more precious things are small and cheap Picking and searching, the envoy held it in his hand like a treasure.

Gifts are not only property, but also living people.

For example, the gifts of the Silla Kingdom were teams of maidservants in gorgeous palace attire.They walked in the middle of the team, bowing their heads and holding their breath like walking on thin ice. These maidservants are the famous Silla maidservants.

On both sides of the avenue, the common people commented on the teams of Silla maidservants, their faces full of reserved pride.

The people of the Shang Kingdom are born with glory, and those who are born in the Kingdom of Sri Lanka are honored.

Well, barbarian girls are okay, but they are a bit short and their butts are not big. At first glance, they are not destined to have sons. They are used to serve our Tang emperor. They are not worthy. The emperor really endured the humiliation in order to appease the vassal state.

Her appearance is just like that, she is not very welcoming, she has a vixenous air, very bewitching, how can it compare to the grandeur of our Guanzhong woman Zhou Zheng...

The palace cannot tolerate these wild garlic, just wait, in a few days, these Silla maidservants will be sent out of the palace by the empress to be sold to wealthy families.

If anyone has money, they might as well grit their teeth and buy two. Hu Meizi doesn't look very good, but she still has a bit of taste in serving men.Occasionally taste game, it can be regarded as a spice.

A sentence of unscrupulous comments reached the ears of the envoys, no matter whether it was objective or vicious, the envoys did not dare to get angry, so they had to grit their teeth and speed up their pace towards Taiji Palace.

The gate of the Tai Chi Palace was opened today, and the envoys of Chaohe were shocked by the magnificence of the Tang Palace, and entered the palace tremblingly amidst the emperor's guard of honor lined with armor and long halberds.

Li Zhi and the courtiers dressed neatly and summoned the envoys of the vassal states in the Taiji Hall.

Today, the emperors and ministers of the Tang Dynasty are in a good mood. The envoys knelt down in the hall, and reverently shouted "Heavenly Khan" and "Suzerain of the Tang Dynasty". Into the history.

The cold moon in the frontier, the lanterns in Chang'an, the iron halberds of the soldiers, the hymns in the downtown area...

Time and space seem to be overlapping. Decades of blood and bones, the ambition of three generations of emperors, and the white hair of many famous generals have finally allowed this country that has suffered for thousands of years to bloom the most dazzling glory and dignity, in exchange for the pious awe of the barbarians of all countries. worship.

Today's Li Zhi was very happy, and with a big wave of his hand, tomorrow Taiji Palace will officially hold a banquet to entertain the envoys from all over the world, and courtiers above the fourth rank in Beijing can participate in the grand event.

…………

Ganjingzhuang.

Li Qinzai was sitting in the yard. There was a red-burning charcoal fire on the open space in front of him. He was holding a pair of tongs with an iron needle on the top of the tongs.

Put the needle on the charcoal fire and burn it red, and then twist it with tongs, and it turns into a fishhook in an instant.

Qiao'er rested her chin and looked at the fishhook in his hand with great interest. The father and son were in a rare warmth and tranquility at this moment.

"Father, why are you making so many fishhooks?" Qiao'er asked curiously.

Li Qinzai didn't lift his head: "Father doesn't want to live anymore, the fishhook is used to hang himself."

Qiao'er was stunned: "How is it possible!"

"If you know it's impossible, don't talk nonsense. Of course the hook is for fishing, otherwise?"

Qiao'er let out a groan, and said again: "The Weihe River is frozen, why are you fishing?"

"Use a pickaxe to smash a hole in the ice on the river surface before fishing. Now is the time when the fish are fat. When Dad catches a few that are big enough, I'll make grilled fish for you."

Qiao'er's eyes lit up, and then dimmed again: "But, daddy's fishing skills are too poor, and nine out of ten times he won't catch any fish. If I wait for daddy to catch a fish, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait until I starve to death... "

The movements of Li Qinzai's hands froze, and his cheeks twitched involuntarily.

I feel offended by my own son.

He raised his hand to pinch Qiao'er's fleshy face, and kneaded his face into various shapes with his big hand. While pinching, Li Qinzai murmured in doubt: "It's obviously my seed, why is the desire to live so weak? How dare you question your father?" The level of fishing, you can’t wait to force me to send a white-haired person to a black-haired person?"

Qiao'er was in pain from being pinched, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Father, my boy was wrong, Dad is very good at fishing..."

Only then did Li Qinzai let go, and said viciously: "You can question my knowledge of mathematics and physics, but you must never question my fishing skills. Fishing depends on luck. Your father's level is fine, but he's just a bit unlucky. "

At this moment, Qiao'er was full of desire to survive, and hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Li Qinzai continued to make fishhooks, Qiao'er was silent for a long time, and suddenly said: "Father, can I take the child to fish together tomorrow?"

Li Qinzai said without raising his head: "Tomorrow you are going to school, and Li Jingxuan will teach you "Spring and Autumn". In addition to mathematics and physics, you should also read more sage books. Don't throw away the things left by your ancestors."

Qiao'er said cautiously: "I'm a little tired from studying recently, and I don't want to go to school tomorrow, is that okay?"

Li Qinzai was taken aback, glanced at him, and said very happily: "Take a day off when you are tired, and tell your brothers and sisters that tomorrow the school will be closed for a day."

Qiao'er immediately cheered, dancing and dancing happily.

Li Qinzai smiled. In fact, the school has always had fixed holidays. There are two days off every ten days, and there are not many homework assigned to the students. It is hard work, but it is not too hard.

However, my son said that he was a little tired from his studies recently, so of course he had to take a day off. Qiao'er has always been well-behaved and sensible, and occasionally meeting his slightly unreasonable requests can be regarded as pampering out of selfishness.

Anyway, Li Qinzai had neither planned to be an educator nor a sage. He was already a salted fish, so what qualifications did he have to let others sleep and forget to eat and dance?

Whether it's studying or working, just make do with it, there's no need to risk your life.
