I have a backstage in Datang

Come on, that's a really big problem.

The ancients were different from the later generations. They paid attention to the reciprocity of courtesy. When others come with courtesy, the host family should treat each other with courtesy. When others congratulate their children, the host family should thank them.And when someone else gave a gift of congratulations, the host family would naturally return a gift that matched the level.

Back and forth, what is exchanged is friendship, and gift giving is not for comparison, but to manage the relationship between each other.If you behave like a dog and only go in and out, it means you close your door and don't prepare to associate with people, accept gifts and don't return them, it's a stick deal, once this happens, the whole world will laugh at you.

That's why Gu Tianya felt his scalp go numb.

Today, the guests outside offered great gifts one by one, as if they were emptying out their wealth and not preparing to live, but the more they were like this, the greater the pressure on Gu Tianya.Zhaoning woke up after his reminder, and her pretty face was also pale at this time.

"What should I do in return?"

The couple looked at each other, and they could see the worry in each other's eyes.

After a long time, Zhaoning spoke cautiously, and said weakly: "Why don't they give it away."

"Then how?" Gu Tianya shook his head instantly.

With a serious expression on his face, he said in a deep voice: "I am a father for the first time in my life, and the baby tiger is my first child. Since ancient times, the guests came to congratulate the baptism of the full moon, and the gifts are all for the celebration of the children. This is a heavy burden. Blessings, how can I let the child's full moon gift be flawed. The gift continues to be received, and I will figure out a way to return the gift. As a father, this is my responsibility."

Zhaoning stared at him in a daze, then suddenly stretched out his hand to hold his hand, her pretty face was gentle and full of happiness, and she whispered, "Tianya, Tianya, you are suddenly different from before. I can marry you, It is truly a blessing for thousands of years.”

These words were a bit nasty, but Gu Tianya felt warm in his heart, he also stretched out his hand and grabbed Zhaoning's other hand.

There is a feeling called life.

The couple suppressed the worries in their hearts and leaned together on the edge of the window to look out.

……

At this time, in the courtyard, the guests held their breaths, and everyone was looking forward to it, waiting to watch the ceremony with curiosity on their faces.

At the moment of singing the gift list, there are only two families left.

This is the finale existence that no one dares to compare with.

But seeing Li Shimin's wife walking gracefully and slowly taking out a gift list from her sleeve, Li Chengqian was obviously restrained and shy when he saw his mother coming forward, but he was also very proud, because his family was the second-to-last a gift-giver.

The child's heart is pure, and there are not too many dogs at this time, he will not think too much at this age, he will only feel that the penultimate gift from his family is very dignified.

The gift list is here!

But Li Chengqian is no longer in charge of reading.

On the contrary, Princess Changsun unfolded the gift list by herself, and said to the guests present with a smile: "I am the aunt of Baby Tiger, and today's occasion belongs to my family's help, so, I am not counting it as a gift. Since it is not a gift, it is not a gift." There is no need for the welcome guests to sing the list, but I know that everyone is curious, so I will read this gift list myself, okay?"

The guests nodded quickly.

Princess Changsun smiled leisurely, and directly raised the gift list and began to read, saying: "Prince Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty, I wish my little nephew a full moon gift. As a boy, Baby Tiger is the eldest son of the Gu family. I wish you a healthy growth. The gentleman is better than De It is like jade, so I will give you a pair of palace jade discs first, engraved with the four characters of bright and clean mind. Signed, the second branch of the Li family, a gift from Li Shimin."

The first gift that was read first made the guests present extremely envious.

It's nothing unusual to give a pair of jade bis, the key is that the inscription on the jade bis is astonishing. Listen, the inscription is "a gift from Li Shimin, the second branch of the Li family". Giving a gift as a good family, looking at the whole world, even in the next few decades, I am afraid that there will never be a second gift like this. Maybe Li Shimin will only give such a good gift to the whole family in his life.

Being close to the emperor's family, what kind of concept is this...

This means being on the same level as the emperor.

How many people does the Gu family have now?Even counting at full count can't exceed the number of five fingers, it can't be called a wealthy family, it can't be called a family, it's like a small folk family, almost every village in the world has such a small family.

But such a small family will be more noble than the Zhongming Dingshi Family from now on.

……

Go and listen to Wang Sun Wangfei continue to chant, the next gift will be scary!

"A good man, he should run rampant in the world...how can he run rampant? He holds the power of soldiers and horses. Although the baby Gu Jiahu is young, a man should be raised from a young age. His father, Gu Tianya, has knowledge all over the world, so learning is not alone. Meddling, this uncle only meddles in the matter of my little nephew Wu Yong."

"This is a gift, [-] troops!"

hiss!

The audience gasped.

Even Zhaoning in the room also showed shock.

The [-] troops were treated as gifts.

She subconsciously looked at Gu Tianya, and asked in a daze, "Second brother, what does he mean by that..."

Gu Tianya sighed, and said with emotion: "Your second brother really deserves to be an outstanding person of a generation."

……

...and one more tonight

Chapter 201? [Tiger baby, the youngest king with a different surname in ancient times]

At this time, outside the Gu family village, there was still the big river.

Li Shimin looked a little satisfied, and threw a stone out of the water with all his strength, and laughed loudly: "I sent [-] troops, this gift will definitely make Gu Tianya stunned on the spot, hahahaha, as long as he thinks of him I couldn't help but want to laugh out loud because of the astonished expression."

Standing next to him was Li Jiancheng. Hearing the words, he gave a helpless wry smile and said, "You brat, why do you always break up with your brother-in-law? The two brothers pinch each other when they meet, and fight secretly when they don't. If it spreads, Wouldn't it make people laugh."

Li Shimin is now 29 years old, but he is still called a brat in Li Jiancheng's mouth. However, Li Shimin didn't feel disgusted. Instead, he stopped the training respectfully, and said embarrassingly: "The lesson from the elder brother is that I will pay attention to my behavior in the future. But, I It's only for Gu Tianya..."

Li Jiancheng glared at him and scolded: "You are an uncle, how can you bully your brother-in-law."

Li Shimin said: "It's strange to say that I seem to be at odds with this kid. Obviously I admire him very much, but as soon as I see his face, I feel angry, and I always want to make a noise with him inadvertently." fan."

Li Jiancheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he pointed at him and said, "You!"

He stopped talking for a while, and suddenly felt something, and murmured: "Actually, this is quite good, and it will keep your heart. When you have been the emperor for a long time, you will gradually become a loner. , since ancient times, the emperor who has held great power will always feel extremely lonely... A brother-in-law who can quarrel with you may let you enjoy some family affection."

Li Shimin was silent, and finally said after a long time: "I am also afraid that I will become a lonely person, and now I have the feeling of being a lonely person. Those old people in the Tiance Mansion in the past can only compliment me when they see me now. They will never show their hearts. Talking, it seems that everyone is starting to alienate me."

Li Jiancheng glanced at him, stretched out his hand to pat him on the shoulder, and said in a gentle voice, "Erlang, don't suffer, this is the price an emperor must pay, and no emperor has been able to escape through the ages."

Li Shimin nodded, let out a breath slowly, and said softly: "Fortunately, there is a brother-in-law who can quarrel with me with grinning teeth. Brother, do you know, I enjoy this kind of quarrel very much."

"I know!" Li Jiancheng patted him on the shoulder again.

The two brothers stood side by side on the embankment, looking at the big river in front of them, Li Jiancheng suddenly asked, "Why do you want to send a gift of fifty thousand troops?"

Li Shimin laughed, with that kind of complacency on his face again, and said: "Actually, I didn't give it to you, but they already had it. That's why I think it's funny. My trick will definitely make Gu Tianya stunned on the spot." .”

What he said was vague, but what kind of person Li Jiancheng is, he only hesitated when he heard the words, and then said thoughtfully: "You are sending the military power of the Women's Army, right?"

"Not bad!" Li Shimin nodded with a smile.

Li Jiancheng also nodded and said, "Understood, it's good to do this. Xiuning has paid too much for the Li family, and we really can't let her get nothing."

Li Shimin's expression became serious, and he sighed, "This girl has been strong since she was a child, and she refuses to take advantage of her natal family after she gets married. She and Gu Tianya have been preparing for a long time, and they want to take this opportunity to hand over the military power of the Niangzijun to her natal family People. She and Gu Tianya did this because of their intentions. But as the second brother, I can't just reap without giving, I also have to consider the actual situation of my sister and brother-in-law, so I sent [-] troops military power..."

He paused while talking, and then said: "It is said to be a gift, but in fact it is to stay. There are 20 women in the Detachment of Women, and Xiu Ning wants to return them all. Once they return, there will inevitably be a vacancy in their power. It's easy to have accidents, and I don't want any accidents to happen..."

Li Jiancheng was very happy, and praised sincerely: "Erlang, you have grown up."

Li Shimin is almost at the top of his position now, but he still couldn't restrain his joy after hearing this praise.The two brothers seem to have returned to their childhood, when the elder brother taught the younger brother how to deal with things.

Since ancient times, the eldest brother is like a father, and the royal family also has family affection, especially Li Jiancheng is ten years older than Li Shimin, so it can be regarded as the case of an elder brother like a father.

The two brothers continued to stand on the embankment, looking at the big river in front of them like the flow of life.

After a long while, Li Shimin spoke again, as if he had really returned to his boyhood, and his tone of voice was full of curiosity and liveliness, and said, "Brother, please tell me quickly, what gift did the emperor entrust you with?" .He is the grandfather of Baby Tiger, and he must beat me in the finale."

Li Jiancheng laughed and said, "What's the matter? Are you curious too?"

Li Shimin pricked up his ears to listen.

……

At this time, in the Gu family village, the singing list finally came to an end.

Princess Changsun sent [-] troops on behalf of Li Shimin, directly pushing the scene to an extremely shocking climax, but everyone knew that the next moment was the real important moment.

Because, the gifts from the baby tiger's grandfather will start to be given out.

As the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan has not abdicated the position of emperor to Li Shimin, so he cannot come in person, so he can only choose to entrust a representative.

Who can represent him?

Only Li Jiancheng!

However, in the ancient full moon ceremony, all female guests participated, and the men had to appear at the next banquet. Therefore, although Li Jiancheng was Li Yuan's representative, it was his wife who was responsible for sending out the gift list.

That is, Zheng Guanyin, the former princess of the Tang Dynasty.

……

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zheng Guanyin also took out a gift list from his cuff.

"It's about to start!"

Almost all the guests held their breaths.

Even Li Xiuning, who was hiding in the room, couldn't help but clenched her little hands at this moment. The handsome female coach of the generation didn't even dare to breathe out.

But after all, I couldn't restrain my nervousness, so I grabbed Gu Tianya's arm subconsciously, and said a little panickedly: "Tianya, Tianya, what gift do you think my father will give the baby? Will he deal with it at any age?" Huh? At the beginning, I married you directly without going through the six rituals, and discredited the old man. I was the first princess of the Tang Dynasty, but I chose to elope..."

Gu Tianya patted the back of her hand lightly, and comforted her softly: "Don't worry, there is no father who hates his daughter in the world. Whether it is an emperor, a trafficker or a pawn, even a beggar on the street, as long as he does Fathers have one kind of mind. They only love their children, especially their daughters, and never hold any grudges."

Zhaoning forced a smile and nodded.

At this time, Zheng Guanyin outside unfolded the gift list, but hearing a clear and solemn voice, lingering in everyone's ears, she recited the gift list with a solemn face, imitating Emperor Li Yuan's In a soft tone, he said: "Baby Gu Jiahu, my little grandson, was baptized by the full moon today. I am very happy. I have been thinking about it for many days, hesitated and tossed. I have searched the entire royal treasure house, but there is nothing that satisfies me. Suddenly, I have a flash of inspiration. Then he burst out laughing, who am I? I am the emperor! A grandfather who is an emperor, can’t he even bring out a gift for his little grandson? I can…"

Zheng Guanyin paused for a while after reading this, and then slowly read out the gift from the Emperor of Tang that everyone was looking forward to.

"Gu's family is poor and poor. I am afraid that my grandson's food and clothing will be poor, so I specially donate Gu's eight states as fiefs."

hiss!

The audience gasped.

What does the land of eight states mean?

It means to give the Gu family eight states.

If you add the Yunzhou sent earlier, and Gu Tianya's hometown Miyun in Tanzhou, this is already the land of ten states, and ten states are almost one Dao of Datang.

And there are only ten Daos in the entire Tang Dynasty.

But the most shocking thing is not the gifts of these ten states.

Because Zheng Guanyin slowly read the last sentence on the gift list again:

"Fonci, the baby of the Gu family tiger, the king of Yunzhou. There is no hereditary succession, and it will not be cut from generation to generation. His father, Gu Tianya, and his mother, Li Xiuning, are allowed to take charge of it on their behalf, and set up their own officials... In addition, taxation, people's levy, corvee, Granting land, everyone can make up their own laws, and they don't respect the laws of the Tang Dynasty."

……

The audience suddenly fell silent.

The eyes of almost all the ladies were red.

Baby Gu Jiahu, the youngest king with a different surname throughout the ages.

And the phrase "hereditary and no change from generation to generation, and his father and mother have been allowed to take charge on his behalf", setting up his own officials and drawing up his own laws, clearly means sealing off a vassal state, clearly allowing the Gu family to have imperial power Average treatment.

How can this be a foreign relative? This means supporting the Gu family to become another royal family.

……

...The second update arrives.

Chapter 202 [Explore the territory and build a country by yourself]

"I see……"

"No wonder so..."

"It's really far-reaching..."

Later generations have denied Sanlian, but in ancient times there were also Sanlian who seemed to be awakened, especially the ladies who were present at the ceremony, each of them was at the level of the main wife of the family. Years of experience is enough to become a smart person.

So there is no fool, so everyone can figure out certain things.

The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty gave Gu Jiahu Baby ten states.

Gu Tianya took out sweet potatoes and auctioned them off to everyone.

When the sweet potatoes were auctioned, they were so impartial, they didn't want anyone's money, they only wanted a promise to develop the population... As a result, only four families participated in the auction, and it was too late for the rest of the families to regret it.
