Datang: Let you supervise the country and become an emperor through the ages

Chapter 86 Fascinated

"His Royal Highness, did you catch the wind and cold recently? Autumn is coming soon, and the weather is cold, so be careful." The eldest grandson Pingting bowed her head obediently, picked up Li Mingda's manuscript, and looked at Li Fu nervously.

Li Fulian sneezed a few times, and waved his hand at Elder Sun Pingting, "It's okay, I didn't cause it due to the weather, but the weather is really bad recently, you girls should pay more attention."

The eldest grandson Pingting picked up the scattered manuscript papers and quickly rearranged them. Hearing what Li Fu said, her expression was slightly distressed, "Your Highness said yes, but I found that in this season, wearing too much is hot, and wearing too little will not keep you warm." , it's really frustrating."

Li Mingda nodded, "Yes, yes, I think so too, it's really troublesome!"

Li Fu had an idea, "It's okay, I planted some cotton somewhere, and it should be growing soon. After a while, I will pick the cotton and make cotton clothes. A cotton coat can hold up to three or four of you now." a dress!"

"Cotton?" Changsun Pingting and Li Mingda's eyes widened, "Flowers can be made into clothes, so how can they be worn?"

"Cotton is so miraculous. Are the clothes made from animal skins warmer than those made from animal skins? The leather clothes my father gave me can't match my three or four clothes. Ah Fu, you are bragging again!"

"His Royal Highness is really funny, but why have I never heard of cotton? Is there such a flower in Tang Dynasty?"

The eldest grandson Pingting and Li Mingda muttered, with suspicious expressions on their faces, obviously doubting what Li Fu said.

After all, for something like cotton that does not belong to Datang, its role is difficult for the two little girls to agree with.

"You don't understand even if I tell you." Li Fu laughed, "You just need to know that cotton is a good thing that can be used to make clothes. Even if you see it now, it's hard for you to understand."

"When the cotton is ripe, I will make one for each of you, and you will know when the time comes!"

Hearing what Li Fu said, Li Mingda was still skeptical, but the grandson Pingting already believed Li Fu.

In recent days, because of the suggestion of Changsun Wuji, she came to the East Palace more and more times, Li Fu did not reject this.

In the process of getting along with Li Fu, the eldest grandson Pingting felt more and more that Li Fu was completely different from what she knew.

Li Fu's thoughts, conversations, and even behaviors have deeply attracted the eldest grandson Pingting, and almost every day can make eldest grandson Pingting have a different sense of freshness.

Under such circumstances, girls naturally develop a different kind of affection for Li Fu.

Therefore, when Li Fu said that he was going to use cotton to make clothes, Changsun Pingting could easily believe it.

Turning their heads, the three of them began to sort out the manuscript again. "Dream of Red Mansions" is a short story that Li Fu was pestered by Li Mingda recently, so he told her a short story. As a result, the two girls found the story interesting, and listening to it once was not enough, so they pestered Li Fu to general Write the story down.

They also planned to make a book of "A Dream of Red Mansions" and show it to their close friends, so Li Fu had no choice but to accompany them and write the first edition of the book in full handwriting.

The content of the first edition of "Dream of Red Mansions" ended with the construction of the Grand View Garden, so there were not too many manuscripts. Li Fu looked at the manuscripts that had been sorted out and suddenly had a whim.

"You will publish the book when the time comes. If the author signs the names of the three of us, how can you put your hard work into it!"

Li Mingda's eyes lit up when he heard the words, "Okay, okay, I'll be the first, Ah Fu, you'll be the second, and Pingting, you'll be the third!"

"No, no, no!" Eldest Sun Pingting waved her hands again and again when she heard the words, "This book is a story about His Highness, and it can only be signed by His Highness's name. The princess can also be added, so I don't need it."

Li Fu waved his hand, "You wrote the book together with us. It took so long. It should be signed with your name. Why, do you feel ashamed to put it with my name?"

"Why does Your Highness think so?" Eldest Sun Pingting was anxious and waved her hands repeatedly.

In fact, she was happy to be able to sign with Li Fu, but she was really embarrassed by the reservedness of a girl.

Just as the three continued to work hard, Li Shimin walked over alone with his hands behind his back.

"Huh? Father, why are you here?" Li Mingda was the first to spot Li Shimin, and rushed to Li Shimin with a shout of joy.

"See Your Majesty!" Eldest Sun Pingting hurriedly knelt down to salute, only Li Fu was still going his own way, sorting out the manuscript.

"What are you all busy with?" Li Shimin looked curiously at the manuscript in Li Fu's hand, and asked with raised eyebrows.

"Father, this is a book we wrote ourselves, and it will be made and sold soon!" Li Mingda spoke quickly.

It was also because it was the first time for me to write such a long story, and I wanted to show off in front of Li Shimin.

Before Li Tai, the king of Wei, because he and his subordinates compiled the "Kuo Di Zhi", which was obviously not the credit of him alone, but the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty only praised him.

And Li Tai showed off with "Kuo Di Zhi" all day long, which made Princess Jinyang very unconvinced.

So this time, Ah Fu promised that the "Dream of Red Mansions" compiled by them would be the first to be signed to her. Of course, she wanted to let her father know about it, and then let everyone in Chang'an City know that she had published a book!

"Sis, is this a book written by the three of you together?" Li Shimin was a little surprised, but immediately became interested, stepped forward, picked up a manuscript, and carefully read it.

"Dream of Red Mansions? The name is interesting, um..." Li Shimin glanced at ten lines, and he didn't take it seriously at first, but the more he looked back, the more surprised he was.

"Dream of Red Mansions" is one of the four famous novels that have been passed down through the ages. Although the content seems to be only the rise and fall of the four major families, and the lingering love story between Jia Baoyu and the Jinling Twelve Beauties.

But in fact, the absurd things in the etiquette and customs of the relationship between rank, status, seniority, male and female, etc. were derived from the four major families.

At the same time, it reveals the ferocious and fierce contradictions and struggles behind the so-called warm veil in the feudal family.

Li Shimin, who rebelled from a family and became an emperor, can easily resonate with certain contents in the book, and he is completely immersed in it after only turning a few pages of the book.

Of course, what can make Li Shimin immerse himself in it is mainly some truths in the book. Those truths that are far beyond the current era naturally benefit Li Shimin a lot from it.

"Well, Father, this book still needs to be finalized and bound, otherwise give it to me first..." Li Fu stretched out his hand to ask for the manuscript in Li Shimin's hand, but Li Shimin didn't move at all, as if he didn't hear Li Fu's words.

Li Mingda also shouted, "Father, Ah Fu asked you to bind the manuscript for him, didn't you hear?"

The eldest grandson Pingting smiled when she saw this, "Your Majesty is completely intoxicated, and I didn't hear the words of the two Highnesses at all!"
