Datang broom star

This is the treatment of those around you.

Wang Zhongliang and others thank you.

"This year is not bad." Wu Mei looked in a good mood.

The emperor sat on the side like a bodhisattva.

"Although it still happens occasionally, His Majesty's condition is gradually improving. This is good news for us and Datang."

"Liaodong was destroyed, and Datang lost a great enemy."

The summary of the outer dynasty is presided over by the emperor, but the queen is in the palace.

"Turks are causing trouble in the Western Regions, and Lord Xing led the army to suppress the rebellion and won a complete victory."

"The Great Tang thwarted Tubo's plans in the Western Regions."

"Datang is booming this year."

Everyone couldn't help recalling the big and small events in the first year of Long Shuo.

When the emperor's condition stabilized, so did the court.

He also obtained a lot of money and food, as well as population and land from Fangwai.

This is a tonic for Datang, and it almost bleeds the household department.

"Today's New Year's Eve, we bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. The whole world celebrates together. Naturally, the palace cannot be exempt from customs."

Wu Mei smiled and said, "Where is the prince?"

Several sons were standing below, and Li Hong stepped forward when he heard the sound, "Mother."

Wu Mei nodded.

Li Zhi curled his lips lightly.

Li Hong stepped forward and said loudly: "Each of the palace servants will reward you with a hundred coins and a set of clothes."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

This is clearly asking the prince to show favor.

The prince is getting older, and he can't be transparent all the time, so asking him to announce this today is to give a signal.

The prince is old enough to decide the honor and disgrace of the palace people.

The next step is to decide the honor and disgrace of the courtiers, which is the emperor's job.

Wang Zhongliang walked out slowly.

He stood on the steps, and below stood more than a dozen well-known servants and female officers.

Wang Zhongliang shouted: "His Royal Highness has an order that each of the palace servants will be rewarded with a hundred coins and a set of clothes."

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness!"

When the cheers came, Li Hong felt a little uncomfortable.

After the business is done, the next step is dinner for the family.

"When the concubine was at home, she liked to go to the kitchen to watch festivals. Seeing the water vapor curling up made her feel at ease, and I will go to see it today."

"Auntie, I'm going too!"

"I am coming too!"

Several children were making a fuss.

All go, then what do I do?

Li Zhi coughed dryly, "When the late emperor was still there, I often went to the kitchen to check the meals."

Wu Mei turned around and said with a smile: "Then please take your concubines and children to have a look."

Li Zhi reluctantly said: "It depends on your curiosity."

The whole family of the Empress and Empress sneaked into the kitchen, and the cooks were so excited that someone accidentally set the frying pan on fire, and with a bang, the flames burst into flames.

The children exclaimed, and a cook took the lid of the pot and put it flat on the pot, and when it was removed, the fire was gone.

Li Zhi nodded, "It's booming."

The whole city of Chang'an was immersed in the festive atmosphere,

Children wearing new clothes, running and playing on the streets in groups.

The newest toy is the firecracker.

Firecrackers made of gunpowder have long been sold in Chang'an and its surrounding areas. Children hold a stick of incense in their hands, light the firecrackers and throw them away.

Bah!

Firecrackers exploded, and flaming confetti flew everywhere.

A child tried his best to throw the firecrackers in his hand, but he threw them on the soldiers of the Jinwu Guard patrolling the city.

Bah!

The child screamed, turned and ran.

But after running a few steps, he turned around and saw that the sergeants were smiling, and they didn't mean to reprimand them at all.

"There were no firecrackers back then."

A sergeant said with emotion: "At that time, I also went out to play with a group of children. I remember that when the late emperor personally conquered Korea, everyone in Chang'an City was looking forward to it, but there was a lot of joy missing."

"Today is different."

"Yeah! Goryeo is gone, Baekje and Silla are gone, the former strong enemy has become the territory of the Tang Dynasty, look at these children carefree"

The team was silent, and everyone urged him to say a few words.

"I have been in the army for more than [-] years." The team is just an old soldier. "In the past, when the fighting never stopped, it was either here or there all day long."

"At the beginning, I also felt tired, and I also felt that the days of begging for life on the knife edge were precarious"

The team thought for a while, "But looking at these carefree children, I suddenly realized that the reason I waited in jeopardy is to let these children be carefree and safe."
