Datang: Touching the Corpse Li Yuanba at the Beginning

"Look at your elder brother, who has laid down a huge territory for you. If you don't go to visit, write inscriptions and paintings, and make masterpieces of celebrities through the ages, you will be wasting your elder brother's efforts."

"Go!"

"Let your elder brother arrange these things!"

"It's the father!"

Li Tai's expression couldn't tell whether it was good-looking or ugly, anyway, he wanted to cry and laugh at the same time.

He yearns for Jiangnan painting boats so much, but when he thinks about the long carriage and boat ride, he feels bad all over.

"What about Changle, Changle has also reached the age to settle down."

Regarding Li Lizhi's marriage, Li Shimin was very cautious. After all, this was one of his favorite daughters. Princess Ankang had already betrothed to Mu Yikuan, and now he had a little padded jacket and wanted to marry her.

"I think Changle should be promised to Changsun Chong!"

Empress Changsun said, at the very beginning, the marriage had been settled, but now it was made public, and Li Lizhi also had a good sense of Changsun Chong. Maintain a superficial respect.

"I can see it!"

Li Wenhao nodded, "Naturally needless to say, Brother Chong's character and knowledge, there is absolutely no problem with his uncle's teaching, and now Brother Chong is still studying as an official abroad, presumably when he comes back, his talent will be improved to a higher level, and he can It matches our family’s happiness”

"Well, that's it, it's decided!"

After hearing about Li Lizhi's arrangement, Li Wenhao stopped talking. After all, the remaining princes and princesses were either not too close to him, or they were born of some unfavored concubines. Although Li Wenhao treated them equally, But they still have some distance from Li Wenhao.

Li Wenhao didn't bother to care.

He went over and patted Li Lizhi on the forehead, kicked Li Tai, held Li Zhi in his hand, held his little son in his arms, and Li Wenhao walked out with a few people.

When he got to the door, Li Wenhao suddenly turned his head, "Now we, Tang Dynasty, don't need to use marriage to maintain the situation, so if you have a favorite NPC, you can rest assured that it doesn't matter whether it's the sons of officials or ordinary people."

"And, no matter who of you gets married, the eldest brother will give you a big gift, a big gift that is enough for you to be safe and rich."

After listening to Li Wenhao's words, the eyes of those concubines lit up, and they had heard some rumors.

I also knew in my heart what the gift Li Wenhao was talking about, so I quickly motioned to my child to thank him.

"Thank you bro!"

What was left to them was the back view of Li Wenhao turning around in a chic way.

Chapter 515 The Yellow River Flood

"Big brother..."

Li Tai raised his head and looked at Li Wenhao tearfully.

"Why. Qingque, you don't need to thank big brother, this is what big brother should do."

Li Wenhao patted Li Tai on the shoulder with a look of hope. It seems that it is not fake to want their old Li family to produce a literati, and he does not think about it. As a poet of Tang and Song Dynasties, if he releases those things, he will not be a celebrity. through the ages?

It's just that he doesn't want to. After all, he can occupy one of Wenzhiwugong, so as not to be criticized in later generations. After killing so many people and leaving so many poems, he really thinks he is an all-rounder?

"Brother, I really really thank you..."

Li Tai said with tears in his eyes.

"Ok!"

Nodding his head, Li Wenhao brought his brothers and sisters to Wangxian Tower.

Every time Li Wenhao returned to Fan Yang, Wangxianlou was a must-go place.

"Brother, where do you want me to go to practice?"

Li Tai knew that he would not be able to stay in Fanyang City any longer, and now he only hoped that Li Wenhao would send him to a better place, such as Dongting Painting Boat, Ten Li Qinhuai River, no matter how bad it is in Jiangnan water town, absolutely, absolutely not Let him go to Longyou and Southwest to experience the vastness of the world.

"You have the final say on where to go, the elder brother will pay you, but you have to remember, you can't go for nothing when you go out, if you come back with nothing in your mind, be careful of your fat body."

"Got it, big brother!"

Li Tai pouted aggrievedly.

He really likes to read books, and he even likes to read arty poems when he has nothing to do, but, in the conscience of heaven and earth, he prefers to read those unofficial biographies!

Li Tai returned to his mansion with a heavy heart, and began to pack his things as if mourning.

"Your Highness, what's the matter with you?"

Seeing Li Tai packing up his things with a sigh, the maid beside him, Xiaomei, asked softly.

"Hey……"

"It's not my good brother who helped me hide the marriage, but wants me to study abroad!"

"Heaven and earth conscience, I don't want to study abroad, I just want to be with you every day!"

Li Tai held Xiaomei's hand, and said with a look of reluctance, "I don't know when we'll come back after we leave."

"Your Highness, you are a prince, and you are someone who is going to do great things. How can you waste time on me, a little maid!"

Xiaomei patted Li Tai's hand sensiblely, which made Li Tai feel very uncomfortable.

This Xiaomei, speaking of it, is the same as Li Wenhao's sister Qian'er, who has been with them since childhood, and has extremely deep feelings.

When Li Wenhao got married, he took Qian'er into his house.

But Li Tai...

How should I put it, Li Wenhao married ten of them at once, and the empress of the palace had already made an appointment.

So Li Shimin and Empress Changsun would not say anything, and they would support them. After all, with such a person, at least Li Wenhao didn't have to worry about his daily life, and he could help Li Wenhao sort out the relationship in the harem.

But if Li Tai wants to marry Xiaomei Mingmei, this may not work.

Although Li Tai is not the crown prince, he is the emperor's son. Marrying a maid is probably not to make people laugh.

Many people say that the right family is a feudal concept, but in modern society, how many people who are not in the right family will live happily ever after?

Li Tai also knew this reason in his heart, so he didn't even mention it to Li Wenhao. He knew that even if he said it, Li Wenhao would not agree, and would only let him choose a regular wife and then bring Xiaomei into the house.

But young love...

"Go, check it out, has Qing Que liked a woman recently?"

"Uh……"

Ding Baiying and Lu Jianxing, who have been in charge of Fan Yangcheng, looked at each other with hesitation in their eyes.

Obviously, they knew something, but they didn't dare to say it. After all, this was the emperor's family business. As foreign ministers, it was really difficult for them to say anything.

"What to say!"

Ding Baiying and Lu Jianxing looked at each other, and finally Ding Baiying stood up.

"Your Highness, the fourth prince and the maid of his house, Xiaomei, have been getting closer recently, and the two of them seem to be..."

"Childhood sweethearts?"

Li Wenhao raised his eyebrows and asked loudly.

"Correct!"

Lu Jianxing nodded.

"Okay, I see. Only the three of us know about this matter. Let me check Xiaomei's background."

"Yes!"

Li Wenhao's mind was spinning wildly. This is also because he has nothing to do now. After all, there is no war, and he is not needed to govern the country, so he is not idle anymore.

He also knew in his heart that Xiaomei was just like Sister Qian'er, but Li Tai...

Unable to think of a good solution, Li Wenhao could only put this matter aside for now, and turned around to pick up the memorial sent by the Ministry of Education.

Since he returned to Fanyang, Li Shimin asked Zhongshu Sheng to copy every memorial and send it to the palace and the prince's residence respectively.

Li Wenhao felt his head was about to explode as he was bored looking at those speech officials arguing with their pens. He didn't understand. They are all fourth-rank or even third-rank officials. Can't they be honest if they have nothing to do?

If you insist on scolding me, is it interesting for me to slander you?

While flipping through, a rather inconspicuous note came into Li Wenhao's eyes.

The person who sent this note was a small county magistrate. Normally, it would be difficult for this level of note to get into Li Wenhao's eyes, but today he saw it.

The person who submitted the paper was the magistrate of Puyang County, and the book was just some opinions and predictions about the flooding of the Yellow River this year.

Generally speaking, a lot of this kind of book is sent up every year. After all, the Yellow River is more than 5000 kilometers from west to east, passing through countless cities along the way, and the Yellow River has been an area with high incidence of floods since ancient times.

But this time, Li Wenhao keenly captured a piece of information.

Five hundred miles to the west of Puyang, the course of the Yellow River is actually above the ground level.

Li Wenhao didn't know whether the Yellow River in Datang had breached in history, but this news alone shocked Li Wenhao.

Puyang is located in Henan, the most fertile place in the Central Plains. It would be fine if the Yellow River didn't burst, but if it did, the entire Central Plains might not be spared.

"Come here, call the Minister of the Ministry of Industry and the Minister of the Ministry of Households to see me!"

"Here!"

After a while, Liu Ze, Minister of Industry, and Tian Bi, Minister of Household Affairs, came to Li Wenhao's study.

"You two, is there any possibility of the Yellow River breaking through this year?"

"What about the rain this year?"

Li Wenhao asked the two of them.

"Returning to Your Highness, according to last year's weather, this year should be a bumper harvest year, with plenty of rain, but definitely not too much. As for the Yellow River..."

The two looked at each other, and Tian Bi, Minister of the Household Department, said, "From the current point of view, the Yellow River is safe, but God's will is hard to guess!"

"Hard to guess?"

Li Wenhao repeated these two words repeatedly, "Then don't guess!"

"I believe that man can conquer heaven. Five hundred miles west of Puyang, the course of the Yellow River is already higher than the surface of the earth. Within ten days, you all come up with an idea."

"Recruit the common people to divert the water of the Yellow River to other places."

"Otherwise, if the Yellow River bursts, my land in the Central Plains will become a swamp country!"

Li Wenhao pointed at the map to make the two of them realize the seriousness of the matter. After waving his hand to make them retreat, he thought about it and wrote a note himself, preparing to present it to Li Shimin tomorrow.
