Rebirth of the Tang Dynasty

The carriage walks.

Gao Yang was leaning on the couch, holding a scroll and reading, while A Wu was leaning on her lap, sleeping peacefully with his eyes closed.

The scenery outside the window is beautiful, full of tourists and heavy traffic.

For the enthusiastic Chang'an people, spring day is a good day for an outing.The sons and boys in fresh clothes and angry horses are galloping happily with whips, while the little lady is in the carriage, opening the curtains from time to time to look out, and occasionally throwing melons and fruits into the arms of the handsome man. In the carriage, she smiled shyly like a wind chime.

Spring, what a bright and passionate season.

The carriage quickly entered the bank of the Qujiang River.Gao Yang put down the scroll and lowered his head to wake up Ah Wu: "It's here."

A Wu opened his sleepy eyes, and slowly stood up, a strand of black hair fell down, passing through the shirt on his chest, and complementing the fair skin under his neck.Gao Yang watched, breathing slightly, she thought of the endless demands last night, of Ah Wu biting his lips and weeping unbearably under her, moaning and panting charmingly, thinking of her white and smooth skin covered with pimples. The dark red hickey, and the throbbing that made people tremble when the two embraced each other frankly.

Gao Yang had no choice but to calm himself down, and took a cup of sour juice and A Wu as a cover-up.

Ah Wu happened to be thirsty, so he licked his parched lips, thanked him, took a sip, and said, "How long have you been walking?" Her eyes were deeply blue and black, and there was a trace of weariness on her face.If she hadn't insisted on coming, Gao Yang would not have allowed it. She hoped that Ah Wu could lie on the couch obediently for a day and have a good rest. After all, last night, she seemed to ask too much.Ah Wu, whose body was as soft as a pool of spring water, still seemed to be in his ear, begging pitifully, "Your Highness... don't want it anymore..."

She should have a good rest today.

Gao Yang raised his eyebrows and said: "It's less than an hour, it's still very early, do you want to rest in the car for a while?"

"No." Ah Wu lowered his head, holding the glass cup, with a little blush at the base of his ears.

Gao Yang laughed it off, it seems that this is not bad, it is not as turbulent as she imagined.

She didn't want to have sex with Ah Wu at first, she just wanted to live with the less intimate days that lasted for more than a year, but they could meet from time to time, talk calmly, care about each other lightly, not enthusiastic but very reassuring. continue.But Ah Wu obviously didn't think so.She thought that when she woke up this morning, she must be full of complicated anxiety, but when she opened her eyes, she only felt calm.

Perhaps, during the more than a year of getting along with each other like water, she had already made preparations, but she just couldn't take that step.

Thinking that she wanted to get up earlier this morning to explain about today's outing, Ah Wu, who should have been sleeping behind him, had sleepy eyes and said in a daze, "His Royal Highness is going out? It's too early, and the door is still locked. I want to pick kudzu at the right time." Only then will you come to unlock it." Gao Yang couldn't help chuckling.She actually asked Caige to lock the door from the outside.

"What are you laughing at, Your Highness?" A Wu put down the glass, straightened his sleepy robes, and asked doubtfully.

Gao Yang suppressed his smile, shook his head and said, "I remembered something interesting."

The carriage stopped, Mr. Zhu raised the door curtain and said: "The Empress Dowager, Your Highness, we have arrived."

The two get out of the car.Gao Yang landed first, turned around and saw that A Wu was still standing on the car, he stretched out his hand to help her.

There are people coming and going in the front, and the tourists are all friends and companions. Several felt tents were set up on the green grass, and several barbarian people sang and danced there, and a group of applauding people gathered around them; , Raise your glass and drink freely; the upper reaches of the Qujiang River are full of boats and boats, singing and dancing, which is the place for the wealthy and noble families to have banquets.

Gao Yang helped Ah Wu get out of the car, and Ah Wu took her by the arm, and they walked along a path sparsely covered with weeds.

Seeing the bustling scene, Gao Yang looked around first, and recognized a few guards pretending to be tourists, then looked at the woods ahead, and saw a very conspicuous red satin hanging on a branch of a poplar, he knew that the tiger was lurking in place up.

There was someone dancing with a sword in front of him, and the gloomy sword light swirled, quite heroic.Gao Yang and A Wu walked over with great interest.

I saw that young man in brocade clothes, his moves were free and easy, calm and comfortable.It's a pity that there is no string and bamboo to match such lofty sentiments, Gao Yang took out a bamboo flute from behind, put it to his lips, and played the clear and clear sound of the flute like a gold and iron horse, and soon someone played a pipa to complement it.

Ah Wu was on the side, and turned to the sword dancing boy's gaze, the sword stopped and everyone cheered.

A Wu looked at Gao Yang and said, "I don't think you can play the flute."

Gao Yang calmly said: "I know a lot." She learned a lot in the previous life, in this life, those musical instruments that are just for passing the time or that she really likes.

Ah Wu looked at her as if she was indifferent, but in fact she had a slightly frightened expression on her face. She turned her head slightly to hide the upward smile on her lips.

The young sword dancer and the pipa player came, greeted Gao Yang, and then dispersed to other places to enjoy the scenery. They met by chance and parted happily, which is very heroic.As far as Gao Yang is concerned, this feeling is quite new.

They went forward again, and as they walked, the number of tourists gradually decreased, but the scenery became more serene.Ah Wu was too exhausted last night, and his physical strength is weak today, so he dragged Gao Yang to sit on a huge rock to rest.

The maidservants brought cheese tea, and the two of them each took a sip to cool off the heat.

Gao Yang shook his head at Ah Wu, teasingly said: "You look like this, you can't go to that peach blossom forest."

Ah Wu did not try to be brave, after all she is not a little girl anymore, she always puts her body first, so she regrets it: "Unfortunately, I was full of expectations yesterday."

Thinking of which place she added to today's itinerary yesterday, it seems that she really wants to go?Gao Yang focused slightly, and then said: "Come back next time, there is spring every year, so it's better to leave some regrets."

The words were very open-minded, and when Ah Wu heard it, he didn't get entangled anymore.

The two got up, went further, found a pavilion, and ate some melon and fruit snacks.

Half an hour earlier than originally scheduled, they went back. Although they didn't have enough time to stay, they were full of excitement and they were in a good mood.

On the way home, Gao Yang was also a little tired, he leaned on the cushion and closed his eyes to rest his mind, while Ah Wu was still pillowing on her leg, opening his eyes to see Gao Yang's quiet face after closing his eyes.

This is already reconciled, right?Although this day, His Highness did not smile any more than in the past, nor did he talk to her more than in the past, but he was obviously much closer and gentler.

Ah Wu held Gao Yang's hand and crossed her fingers. Gao Yang opened his eyes, glanced at them lightly, closed them again, and never broke free.

Not long after arriving at Furong Garden, Gao Yang and A Wu said: "Don't go up and down, you can go back to the palace."

There will be an early morning tomorrow, so I definitely can't stay in the Furong Garden. Besides, it's okay for the queen mother to run out all the time, and it's outrageous to stay outside all the time.Ah Wu hesitated for a moment, then said: "Alright." After a pause, he asked with a little expectation: "Can Your Highness enter the palace tomorrow?"

Gao Yang refused without thinking deeply: "I have other things to do tomorrow, so I can't come. It will be the next few days, so don't come."

Ah Wu: "..." Could it be that she was wrong, but actually they didn't reconcile?But today is indeed different!

Gao Yang has already got off the car.

The carriage moved again.Ah Wu raised his forehead, His Highness's heart is getting harder and harder to guess, it must not be eaten in vain.Thinking back to last night, His Highness did not look very reluctant.Touching his waist, which was still sore, His Highness was clearly satisfied after eating.

Speaking of which, she was also very apprehensive when seducing His Highness, after all, His Highness once admitted that she no longer looked down on her crippled body.She thought His Highness would push her away and even get angry, so she ordered Caige to lock the room. If His Highness was angry, she would have a chance to explain and calm her down.She assumed many possibilities, the only thing she never thought of was that when she embraced her from behind, His Highness turned around and hugged and kissed her.

A Wu closed his eyes, and could almost feel Gao Yang's remaining body temperature on her body, she obviously liked it too.

So what's going on now?

Awu returned to the palace with a little anxiety.

In the next few days, he did not leave the palace again.

The imperial court will never really calm down. In a few days, they received a good news from the frontier. Su Dingfang completely repelled Goguryeo and presented a letter of peace from the Lord of Goguryeo.Ah Wu was overjoyed, and wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue the attack, and sent his army straight into the capital of Goguryeo, so that they could see the power of heavenly soldiers. (Heavenly Soldiers: □□ soldiers)

He provoked the Tang Dynasty several times, and once he was defeated, he immediately submitted a letter of credence to seek peace. He was very spineless and shamelessly flattering.Many ministers also deeply felt that Goguryeo was disgusting, but because the military affairs were not conducive to the harmony of people's livelihood, and the Tang Dynasty had always been the first state, they should be tolerant, and they all advised the Queen Mother to think twice.

Ah Wu insisted on fighting this battle.She didn't do it on a whim.At this time, the national treasury is full, and the world has been stable for several years, and there have been no major natural disasters. The people can still eat. She also called Li Chunfeng to ask how the weather will be next year. Will there be any natural disasters?Li Chunfeng deduced his tortoise shell again, looked at the weather records for several months, and then observed the astrology for many days, and said: "Next year will still be a bumper harvest."

After many considerations, and it is spring at this time, the rice and wheat have been planted, which will not hinder the farming season.Ah Wu decided that this battle must be fought. If Goguryeo is not destroyed, he must be obedient, and he will not dare to provoke him casually.

The next step is to start a tug-of-war with the Lord and the faction.After seven days, the Empress Dowager won the victory. Finally, in the name of the emperor, an edict was drawn up by Menxia Province, approved by Zhongshu Province, and then sent to the frontier by the Minister of War as an angel.

War is not just an edict.

Ah Wu summoned the officials to discuss where to deploy troops, where to allocate grain and grass, and where to recruit civilian husbands.

"Food and grass will be transferred from Huining, Shenzhou, and Xidu. These three counties will be exempted from [-]% of taxes next year." Without a moment's pause, the Queen Mother pointed to the county on the map that is most conveniently away from the battlefield.

All the ministers silently covered their faces in their hearts: The Queen Mother seems to be showing signs of insanity.But these three places are indeed the most suitable. Being able to point out these three places so sharply, even the people of the three prefectures thought of tax-free compensation. It can be seen that it is not a day or two for the Queen Mother to want to fight this battle.

Then there are people who are dispatched to the three counties to dispatch grain and grass.It went quite smoothly.

The court is going well, just waiting for Marshal Su to return triumphantly.

Ah Wu was not very happy, he hadn't heard from Gao Yang for nearly half a month.

This half month has been very busy, and she couldn't find a time to leave the palace.She didn't leave the palace, Gao Yang didn't enter the palace either, so the two of them naturally couldn't see each other.Ah Wu was thinking about that, and sent someone to send a letter, but Gao Yang returned it. Compared with her affectionate thoughts, Gao Yang's reply was simple and rude. There were only four words on the big letterhead—— Don't forget to be safe!

So cold!
