Fairy Road Return [comprehensive]

There was an autumn rain at night, and it was really a layer of autumn rain and a layer of coolness. When we opened the window in the morning, a cool breeze rushed in.

"My lady, I'm going to wear this dress today." Liu He was holding a lavender jacket that was slightly thinner in late autumn or early winter. Yang Ruoxi glanced at it and nodded.

But she pulled out the long sword from the bed and said, "I'll practice swords in the yard first."

She turned around and walked out of the room with a sword in her hand. Although she was wearing thin clothes, Liu He was not worried. It seemed that after the lady learned martial arts, her body became better and better, and it was difficult to see sickness throughout the year.

The speed of Yang Ruoxi's sword dance ranged from slow to fast. She seemed to be looking for a feeling, and felt that this move was more in line with the previous move, so she settled down and continued to test the next move.

Liu He hugged the clothes and swayed her left and right hands. At first, she was slow and she could keep up, but then she couldn't keep up when the speed became faster.

But she still stared at the long sword in the master's hand with glowing eyes. The last time she was in danger, after Liu He knew about it, she was really terrified.

A quarter of an hour later, the master and the servant tidied up and came to the front hall. Yang Ruomei sat on a chair with her legs crossed and bored, her eyes were out of focus, and she had already wandered somewhere.

Yang Ruoxi knocked on her, and asked curiously: "So preoccupied, what are you thinking?"

Yang Ruomei first looked at Sister A with dull eyes, and then she reacted, her eyes drifted away immediately, and after a while, she dragged a chair and sat beside her sister attentively, rubbed her hands, and said, "Sister A, I seem to be looking at you. Fucked a man."

Yang Ruoxi, who was taking a sip of water, coughed and choked.

Yang Ruomei will only be 12 years old next year. Even if she wants to go on a blind date or get married, it will take four or five years. As a result, she told him early this morning that she has a crush on a man!

Yang Ruomei was so guilty that her eyes became more and more erratic, and she didn't dare to look at Sister A's face.

Yang Ruoxi coughed and asked, "What is it like? What's your name? Whose son?"

Yang Ruomei bit her lips, lowered her head, and said shyly, "I saw him for the first time yesterday, and I dreamed of him last night, and he kept smiling at me!"

Yang Ruoxi said blackly: "Speak to the point, whose son is it?"

"Gao Zhenxing, Qin Wangfei's cousin." Yang Ruomei chuckled, she fanned her eyes and looked at Ajie obediently.

Yang Ruoxi raised her eyebrows: "Princess Qin's uncle has entered Chang'an?"

Gao Shilian was relegated by her father to Zhuyuan County as the chief bookkeeper, and his wife and children stayed in his hometown. Now that the court has transferred him back to Chang'an, did his wife and children also come to Chang'an?

Yang Ruomei nodded repeatedly like pounding garlic: "Yeah, he's two years older than me, and he's Gao Langjun's fourth son."

Yang Ruoxi patted her head and said: "You are still young, if you still want to marry him after 16 years old, let's talk about it."

Yang Ruomei pursed her lips, knowing that sister was just making excuses, but when she tilted her head and thought about it, sister would not object, it's just that this identity is not easy to solve, this is Princess Qin's cousin, if one day In the future, her brother-in-law fell out with the King of Qin, will she be used by the Gao family to sacrifice the flag at that time?

The two sisters went to the main courtyard to pay their respects to their aunt. Yang Ruohua was not there, but his three nephews were there, and Yang Tong's first child was there. This was a son who was born less than a month ago. No, I didn't make it public, but my family knew about it.

"Mother." After the two sisters saluted, Empress Xiao called her to talk.

With both elder nephews present, Yang Ruoxi knew that her aunt must have something to say.

Empress Xiao thought about her words, and said: "Sanniang, Duke Xue's mansion entrusted a middleman, that is, your aunt, Mrs. Guan Guogong, to propose a marriage for the eldest grandson of Xue Guogong's third son, Wuxiang Siniang."

Of course, this is just asking the middleman to ask a question. If the woman is interested, then ask the official media to formally propose marriage.

Empress Xiao hadn't told Yang Ruohua about this, she felt that Yang Ruohua would not agree to it, her eldest grandson Wufang was Xue Guogong's concubine, even though Yang Ruohua was no longer a princess, she was so arrogant that she would not agree to this marriage.

"Changsun Wuxiang asks Fourth Sister for marriage?" Yang Ruomei opened her mouth, as if she couldn't believe it, and then gloated, "Mother, Fourth Sister will definitely not be willing."

Yang Ruoxi didn't express her opinion, but said: "Mother, let the fourth sister decide for herself whether to agree to this marriage or not, it's up to her. But if she misses this marriage, after next year, her marriage will not be up to her."

If Yang Ruohua had to pick and choose, she would only know how to fight. There is still a year left, and now she can choose by herself.

Empress Xiao nodded, and sent someone to invite Yang Ruohua. She was dressed up and seemed to be going out, but she was a little dumbfounded when she heard that the eldest grandson's family proposed marriage to her.

Empress Xiao looked at her and said, "Si Niang, think about it for yourself, and give me an answer when you greet me tomorrow."

Yang Ruohua left the main courtyard with a heavy heart, and then went out without answering Ting Xuetang. Yang Ruoxi thought, she should go to look for Changsun Wufang.

Afterwards, Yang Ruoxi took Yang Ruomei out. This girl might have been on a whim, but she also had to see how she was.

Because I won't go out of the city today, the coachman drove alone outside the carriage, and Liu He felt that the air in the carriage was too dull, so he sat outside and chatted with the coachman.

"What's so good about him?" Yang Ruomei asked suddenly.

Yang Ruomei bowed her head, intertwined her fingers, circling and circling, showing that she was restless.

"Hehe, I just saw him smiling at a child suddenly. That smile is very nice. He doesn't seem to like to smile, and keeps a straight face. Sister, you can imagine that a man who doesn't like to smile suddenly laughs, like that The child is so beautiful!"

Yang Ruomei closed her eyes with a very intoxicated expression, which made Yang Ruoxi feel ashamed. Her maid Ying'er covered her eyes, as if she didn't dare to look at her master who suddenly became angry. Sun Fang lowered her head slightly, her shoulders kept shaking, Obviously also amused by Qin Niangzi's words.

Yang Ruoxi didn't bother to find Gao Zhenxing either, she took Yang Ruomei to inspect the shop, and came to the office of Beautiful Beauty magazine near noon.

Beautiful Beauty publishes three issues a month. In the past three months, it has released ten issues. It already has a stable audience. However, some embroidery workshops have followed the example of Beautiful Beauty, resulting in several women's magazines on the market. It was diverted, but because the content of Beautiful Beauty is more popular with female audiences than other magazines, it has stabilized its position as the number one magazine for women.

After noon, there was a sound of beating gongs and drums from the gate of the city. Two soldiers with gongs and drums were beating and walking all the way, followed by a group of hundreds of soldiers, followed by prison cars, prison cars The prisoners inside were all the members of the Murong clan of Tuyuhun Royal Court.

"Sister, come and see, the frontline sent troops to send the prisoners back." Upon hearing the sound of the gong, Yang Ruomei stretched her neck out of the window of the restaurant out of curiosity and looked out.

Yang Ruoxi walked over, her gaze shifted from the soldiers in front to the prison car behind, there were many Murong family members, and the prison car for a long walk was full of barbarians in Hu suits.

Li Kang said that the Murong brothers and sisters had left Chang'an, but Yang Ruoxi didn't think so. Even if they left, during this time, Datang has been preaching that the whole Murong family will be sent to Chang'an, so will the Murong brothers and sisters show up?

The long queue passed by quickly, and there were many people watching the excitement on both sides of the street, perhaps the Murong brothers and sisters were hidden among them.

Afterwards, Ying'er went back and forth, saying that she saw the young master of the Gao family and the young masters from other mansions going to the Qiurong Garden, so she probably wanted to go to the Qiurong Garden to enjoy the chrysanthemums.

Although it is autumn and the climate is bleak, for scholars, no matter what season they are, it does not prevent them from composing poems and fus.

"Let's go, let's go to Qiurong Garden as well."

As soon as Yang Ruoxi said this, Yang Ruomei couldn't hide the joy on her face.

Unexpectedly, at the gate of Qiurong Garden, I met Yang Fu, Yang Xun'er, and the young ladies from other mansions. After greeting each other, they entered the garden together.

Yang Ruoxi didn't pay attention to Yang Xun'er's affairs, but she asked Yang Ruomei, she still knew a thing or two about Yang Xun'er's affairs.

Yang Xun'er's beauty is undoubtedly sought after by the lords in Chang'an City, and she has a gentle personality. Although she may lack some personal charm, for most lords, isn't this a tailor-made first wife?

The first wife is beautiful, dignified and virtuous, that is simply a blessing in this life.

But after a long time, all the government officials have seen Guan Guogong's intentions. Although they do not prohibit his son from contacting him, they have also made it clear that he is targeting His Royal Highness King Wei. You should rest your mind as soon as possible. Although this kind of beauties are rare, they are generally beautiful, so don't pursue too high.

As for Li Xuanba and Li Zhiyun, their elder brothers have arranged a lot of affairs, so how can they have so much free time for romance?Of course, they also spared time to meet Yang Xun'er for a while, but the free time is limited, once in five days is regarded as the elder brother's love for them, in most cases, it is ten days or half a month to rest for one day, anyway, during the daytime, the brothers are very busy Turning around, the free time every day is already after [-] o'clock in the evening, and they don't have the time to go up and down, and they can't climb other people's little ladies' boudoirs.

After a long time, although they still appreciate the beauty, when it comes to getting married, both brothers hesitate.A marriage, if you hesitate, then the marriage is basically a little hanging.

After entering Qiurong Garden, after a long circle, I finally met Gao Zhenxing and his party.

The young gentlemen and the young ladies are all acquaintances, and then everyone simply got together to enjoy the scenery.

Yang Ruoxi took a closer look at Gao Zhenxing. He was a 15-year-old boy with a calm facial expression and a straight figure, which looked a bit like a soldier.

Yang Ruomei had already looked at the young man with glowing eyes, and according to her personality, she should have rushed forward a long time ago, and pulled him to make friends with him chatteringly.

But now she is shyly hiding behind her sister, only daring to peep.

Yang Ruoxi's black line, the young man noticed Yang Ruoxi's observing gaze, turned his eyes to look at her, and then bowed to her.

Yang Ruomei looked up and met the young man's gaze. She was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled big, and the young man was stunned.

Liu He came up from behind and said in a low voice: "Lady, Lu Shun just told me that the imperial guards and Xuanyi guards captured the fleeing Murong brothers and sisters."

Yang Ruoxi patted Yang Ruomei's small head, and said, "There is no big problem with people, you work hard." Then she told Yinger to look at her master well.

Yang Ruomei showed a smirk on her face, then watched her sister leave, then turned her head to look at Gao Zhenxing, but Gao Zhenxing's eyes had already turned elsewhere, her heart shuddered, she gritted her teeth, then stood on tiptoe, timidly He walked behind Gao Zhenxing.

When Yang Ruoxi left Qiurong Garden, the carriage drove over immediately, and the driver was Lu Shun whom Liu He mentioned.

Originally, she wanted to go to the Prince's Mansion, but thinking that she would not be able to see him there, Yang Ruoxi dismissed the idea and asked the coachman to go to the embroidery workshop.

By the way, Lu told what he just learned. The Murong brothers and sisters had indeed been hiding in Chang'an City. Today, the entire Murong family entered Chang'an as prisoners of war. How could the brothers and sisters bear it? After changing their appearance, they hid in the dark But the other onlookers were just watching, but the brother and sister were emotionally excited. Although they didn't make a scene, the anger in their eyes couldn't be hidden. Ten fingers dug into the flesh, and the blood dripped down the palm of the hand. Under the drip, they didn't even realize it, they were discovered by Xuan Yiwei who had been monitoring the onlookers, and they were finally arrested and brought to justice.

Now this pair of brothers and sisters are being imprisoned together with their relatives in the prison of the Ministry of Justice. Of course, this pair of brothers and sisters are being held alone. If the rest of the Murong family may be pardoned, then this pair of brothers and sisters may have no chance of surviving.

The imperial court wants to discuss, how should the Murong family deal with it?

It is impossible for so many people to be executed, otherwise it will leave a brutal impression on the world.

At dusk, many soldiers once again appeared in the streets of Chang'an City, including those from the city defense battalion and the palace guards. They went around the streets and alleys and arrested many people. It is a fourth-rank, and the other two are fifth-rank, one civil servant, one general, and several merchants.

The wind was jittery, and the night market was deserted this evening.

Yang Ruoxi knew that the result would not come out so soon, so she didn't plan to know the court's result this day, anyway, it would be the same if she knew it a few days later.

At night, she was sleeping soundly, and was woken up by Li Xie, and her sleep was suddenly interrupted, but she suddenly woke up.

"Those who disturb people's lucid dreams are unforgivable crimes!" She leaned on the chest of the man in front of her and muttered.

Li Xie was amused, and said, "Please forgive me, Crown Princess!"

The two got bored for a while, and then Yang Ruoxi asked about the series of events that happened during the day, and Li Xie answered them one by one.

"The brothers and sisters exchanged confessions to protect their mother and brothers and sisters from death, and Datang could not abuse them."

Li Xie hooked his lips: "Being able to say this condition can only show that they are naive, but the court agreed, because they didn't want to kill them all. Their father died on the battlefield long ago, and the rest are all Women and children, and seemingly harmless offshoots."

Yang Ruoxi raised her head and asked, "So, they betrayed the benefactor who took them in?"

Li Xie nodded, followed the vine tonight, and pulled out the nails of many other forces, especially the nails that the Turks planted in Chang'an, not just the rice shop manager who had escaped, but the rice shop manager was Ashina Hulu The people who pulled out tonight were some hidden threads inserted by Turkic Khan. It may not be finished, but Chang'an City will be safe for a long time.

It is not an exaggeration to say that you are wolf-hearted, but it is normal to say that you have to.

"Then how will those people deal with it?"

Li Xie shrugged: "I'm not going to ask about this, it's up to Father and the ministers to discuss."

To kill or not to kill, he doesn't care.

In the next few days, the people in Chang'an City, even though they were all soldiers, got together in twos and threes, discussing whether the people who were detained by the court were executed?Or not be executed?

As a result, before the imperial court issued a decree, an expedited memorial of eight hundred miles from the border appeared on the imperial case.

Strictly speaking, this memorial is not a memorial. It is a letter of friendship sent by the Khan of the Western Turks. The nails in Chang'an City have been pulled out, and Uncle Khan is still fanning the flames in the territory of the Tang Dynasty. , It was sharpening the knife to the pigs and sheep, and they Turks are pigs and sheep, the Turkic Khan was in a hurry, so he couldn't wait to send a letter to ask for good.

The two armies did not kill the envoy when they fought, and the two countries had diplomatic relations, and the envoy was not beheaded. This letter arrived first, and the Turkic envoy was already on the way.

Li Yuan read the letter first, he was thinking, but Li Xie rolled his eyelids after reading it, and said, "Father, I don't have any younger sister to give to Turkic Khan."

His eyes then swept to the ministers, with a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth: "You have many daughters in your family."

Li Shimin then picked up the letter and looked at it. Li Xuanba and Li Zhiyun looked at it together. Li Xuanba smiled: "Second brother, you are the only one in our family who has a daughter."

Li Shimin's face darkened instantly, Yue'er and Xing'er are only two or three years old, is this what an uncle said?

The other ministers all laughed shyly, but declined and said: "His Royal Highness, the minister's daughter, her virtues and merits still depend on teaching, and she is really not worthy of the Turkic Khan."

The Turkic Khan's mind changed quickly, and he actually wanted to kill Princess Yicheng and marry Princess Datang as his wife.

But Tang Huang's five daughters have already been married, and now the youngest child in the harem is Li Zhiyun. Where can I find a princess to marry the Turkic Khan?On the contrary, there are quite a few clan daughters in the Li clan, and they may be unwilling to love their daughters, but if the emperor agrees, then they will never object.

Of course, Lixie would not agree, let alone be accustomed to the temperament of Turks or even other small countries. If he wants to marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty, there is no way!

Li Yuan glanced at the ministers, and then at his son, knowing that what his son said just now was against his will, how could he agree to marry his sister to Turkic? Isn't that a disguised softness?His son had never been subdued and provoked him. He believed that he could break into the depths of the grassland alone and behead the Turkic Khan.

"Okay, Datang's daughter is so precious, she can't take advantage of outsiders!"

Three days later, the results of the Murong family's treatment came out. The brothers and sisters who were disturbing the wind and rain in Chang'an and several important members of the Murong family's court were executed, and other women, children, and children were left behind. They plotted a house and placed them there. The imperial court provided ten taels of silver to each household every month. How long it would last depends on the follow-up situation. No one from the Murong family is allowed to leave Chang'an. Whenever they think they are safe, they will be free. up.

The Turkic envoy entered Chang'an ten days later, and was received and accommodated by the officials of Honglu Temple. Three days later, Li Yuan received the Turkic envoy. The envoy conveyed the meaning of Chuluo Khan, but Li Yuan clearly declined. He has no one to marry now. Daughter, the daughter of someone else's family, even if he is the emperor, he can't snatch it and give it to others. Let's just let it go like this.

The Turkic envoys stayed in Chang'an for a month. They visited many officials and lobbied them, saying that the Turkic people really wanted to make friendly relations with the Tang Dynasty. Some ministers did not express any opinions. Pawn, there is no more war at the border, which is actually worth discussing, but the Tang emperor and the prince didn't have any directional remarks, so the matter just got stuck.

At the end of November, the Turkic envoy left. Before leaving, Tang Huang took advantage of the situation and proposed the implementation method of Datang, that is, the Turkic bowed his head to the Tang Dynasty, and there was no discussion. The Turkic envoy was trembling with anger on the spot. He didn't dare to get angry, for fear that he would be killed.

However, the Tang army was still stationed at the border, eyeing the Turks. Li Yuanji, who had been away for half a year, returned to Beijing for the New Year.
