Datang: Only by resisting the decree can we become stronger

"After a long time, the two of them became interested in each other."

"But Ma Zhou, my lord, you also know about it."

"My heart is higher than the sky, and I have ambitions all over my body."

"For this widow Mrs. Wang, he has both a good impression and a little unwillingness."

"He couldn't make up his mind to marry Mrs. Wang, and he couldn't bear to move away."

"So, this matter has been delayed like this."

Hearing Sun Simiao's words, Li Qiu, Wu Jue and others naturally laughed.

Unexpectedly, Ma Zhou has such a side.

As for Ma Zhou, his face was also red at this moment, bowing to everyone everywhere, begging to let him go.

In the Tang Dynasty, women's social status was still very high.

The social atmosphere is very generous, and there is no discrimination against women.

At that time, women in the Tang Dynasty had the right to initiate a divorce when their husband cheated or in several other specific situations.

The government and the law will also protect it.

So it is quite normal for widows to remarry.

Even many of Li Shimin's princesses had remarried.

Of course, regarding Ma Zhou's matter, freedom of marriage and love, Li Qiu just took it as a pleasure and smiled.

There was no intention of interfering.

As long as he has no difficulties in life.

However, for Wu Jue, Luo Kexin and others, this is a rare piece of gossip and fun around them.

The few of them were also excitedly researching when to meet the widow Mrs. Wang and arrange Ma Zhou's marriage.

Since there was nothing to do before the New Year's Eve, and Li Qiu was in a good mood, he finally studied checkers.

A hexagonal chessboard, inside is a hexagonal star pattern composed of six regular colors.

On the hexagonal star pattern, there are evenly distributed round holes.

The chessboard is made by the top carpenter in Furong Garden, the descendant of Lu Ban, Gong Shuyang.

As for chess pieces, there was no way to get glass balls at that time.

So Li Qiu ordered the craftsmen to make several iron balls instead.

These iron balls are all hollow and unsinkable.

There are six colors on it, engraved with their own exquisite patterns, which are very easy to distinguish.

Just because of the exquisiteness and beauty of this checkers, Luo Kexin, Wu Jue, Li Yin, Princess Youle and several other girls couldn't put it down.

Chapter 493 Gaochang King Qu Wentai

Moreover, this kind of chess is not like chess and military chess, and does not require the so-called military strategy.

Simple and straightforward, more suitable for girls to play.

As for the number of participants, it can be played by two people, four people, or even six people.

The more people involved, the more interesting it is.

Just a day's work has made several of them addicted to playing.

Li Yin directly sent someone back to report to the mansion that he would spend the night in the Furong Garden.

The same is true for Princess Youle, who wants to stay overnight in the Furong Garden and play chess overnight.

But because of the lessons learned by Princess Gaoyang, Empress Changsun was worried, so she sent Xu De to invite her.

But helplessly, Youle also had a rare temper tantrum, saying that he would not return to the palace.

In desperation, Xu De had no choice but to leave two eunuchs in the palace to watch and serve.

After all, Princess Youle has a lot to do with it, and there must be no mistakes.

Luo Kexin is actually quite interested in this checkers.

Especially being able to play with the girls Wu Jue, Li Yin, and You Le added a lot of laughter.

But helpless, she was pregnant at the moment and couldn't sit still, at most she stood around them to watch the fun and laughed along with them.

Apart from Luo Kexin, there are only three people left: Wu Jue, Li Yin, and You Le.

Li Qiu socializes everywhere, and doesn't really like playing with the three little girls.

As for Ma Zhou, although he can play chess, his status does not allow him.

Ever since, Wu Jue, Li Yin, and You Le had an idea, and kidnapped A Ke.

Play chess with them.

For A Ke, playing this kind of chess has no fun at all.

And she is proficient in traps, her way of thinking is very different from ordinary people.

Playing this kind of checkers with simple rules is even more decisive, unmatched by anyone.

Even Wu Jue, who has the highest IQ among the crowd, is incapable of playing against A Ke.

Therefore, the three of them were beheaded by A Ke in turn, wailing constantly, in pain and happiness.

Seeing these girls playing chess so addictively, Li Qiu secretly rejoiced in his heart.

Fortunately, I didn't get Mahjong out.Otherwise, it will be a very dimensionality reduction blow, and a hurricane will sweep across the entire Datang.

The losses and harms at that time were definitely too heavy.

……

This year's festival is more lively than last year.

Especially the Furong Garden is more festive.

After gaining the experience of previous years, the people in Chang'an City this year ran out of the Furong Garden early.

Grab a vantage point and wait to see the students of Seremban Academy perform.

This year, the number of students in Furong Academy has reached 1700, and the scale of the performance is even more grand.

After the real large-scale dance performance started, the city of Chang'an was even more empty, and almost all of them ran out of the city.

The huge cheers, applause, soared into the sky, and even the city of Chang'an could hear it clearly.

In this scene, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun in the palace shook their heads and smiled wryly.

Among them, the most depressing one was Princess Youle.

Originally it wasn't the New Year's Eve, but she still often went to the Furong Garden.

But when it comes to festivals, she must stay in the palace.

Maybe after marrying to my uncle's house in the future, I will be able to run to the Furong Garden again.

No matter the uncle or the eldest Sun Chong, the relationship with Furong Garden is also very close.

The only thing that made her more gratified was that this year's festival, Princess Yunzhong was once again pulled into the palace by the eldest grandson queen to celebrate the festival together.

And at Youle's begging, A Ke brought Xiao Hei along.

So that with the two dogs here as companions, it is more lively and interesting.

However, all the happiness of Princess Youle came to an abrupt end on the first day of the first lunar month.

Qu Wentai, the king of Gaochang Kingdom, and Yi Shiyinan, the Turkic Pearl Khan, came to court with congratulatory gifts in person.

This is the most glorious and glorious moment of Datang since the establishment of Datang, especially since Li Shimin ascended the throne.

Ever since, the streets of Chang'an City were decorated with lights and festoons for a while, and both inside and outside the imperial court paid great attention to it.

It is necessary to create a scene of the Tang Dynasty being extremely prosperous, prosperous and powerful.

It's just that, since the founding of the country, the Tang Dynasty first fought civil wars with powerful powers such as Dou Jiande and Liu Wuzhou.

It was not until the ninth year of Wude that the interior of the Tang Dynasty would be pacified.

Then, in the first few years of Li Shimin's period, there were three consecutive years of famine, and the Turks were almost beaten to destroy the country twice.

The population is declining, with less than 200 million registered households.

It is only a quarter of that of the Sui Dynasty.

As for Datang's wealth, the state treasury was even short of money.

It wasn't until Li Qiu and the others snatched back a large amount of gold, silver, jewelry and precious cultural relics from the Turkic king's tent that they saved face.

I have some confidence.

Just like the Shangyuan Festival the year before last, Li Shimin asked a noble lady from the previous dynasty.

How does the Shangyuan Festival in the Tang Dynasty compare with that of the previous dynasty?

The lady answered directly and truthfully that the Lantern Festival in the Sui Dynasty was only filled with burning musk and other precious spices.

It must be recorded by counting the carriages.

The burning aroma can be smelled around Chang'an City.

But during the Shangyuan Festival in the Tang Dynasty, wood was burned...

In terms of economic strength and prosperity, the early Tang Dynasty was far from comparable to that of Sui Yangdi.

And Qu Wentai, the king of Gaochang Kingdom, came to pay homage to Emperor Yang of Sui in person.

Naturally, I also witnessed the prosperity and prosperity of Chang'an City in the period of Emperor Sui Yang.

So even though he doesn't make a sound on the surface, it's in his heart.

Qu Wentai despises Datang quite a lot.

It is far from the Sui Dynasty!

On the other side, the Turkic Khan Yi lost a barbarian man, and the situation is quite special.

This time when he informed Zhi Shisili, Qibi Heli and others of his plan.

Everyone's jaws were almost dropped in shock.

Of course, it's not just them, almost all the leaders of the grassland tribes and generals in the army tried their best to obstruct it.

Especially when he lost his mind, he kept shaking his head and admonishing him.

"Khan, you must not go on this trip to the Tang Dynasty."

"The last time I went, even if I died in Datang, it doesn't matter."

"But you're going. If something unexpected happens, my already weak grassland allies will be dispersed!"

"At that time, I'm afraid I don't want to migrate to Shuofang, and I don't want to be controlled by Datang!"

"You have to think twice!"

Chapter 494 Ask Princess Youle to be his wife

In response to the persuasion of Zhi Shi Si Li and others, Yi Shi Yinan hummed fearlessly.

"For the reproduction and prosperity of the various tribes in our grassland, as a Khan of the grassland, I should lead by example."

"On this grassland, you are not the only warrior who loses his mind."

"This time I go to Datang, one is to dispel the vigilance of Datang."

"The second is to gain enough opportunities and time for the development of the tribes in our grassland."

"After I'm gone, don't relax, you generals. You still have to actively prepare for the battle and prepare for the worst!"

……

According to the etiquette process of the Tang Dynasty, on the first day of the junior high school, Ju Wentai, the king of Gaochang, and Zhenzhu Khan Yishiyinan also appeared in the Taiji Hall.
