After the prosperous Tang Dynasty

Both Du Youlin and Liu Ji, the old man's son-in-law, died under the heavy stick of Dali Temple, and the rest of the family were also sentenced to exile to the bitter cold of the border.

As for Du Liangdi, although she was exempted from exile, her position as Prince Liangdi has also been abolished, and she has since moved out of the East Palace to fend for herself.

Concubine Wei and Du Liangdi had accidents in their homes one after another. Even if the East Palace was lucky enough not to be implicated, Crown Prince Li Heng was exhausted physically and mentally and suffered a great blow. Seeing Du Liangdi's father die unjustly, in order to protect himself, he can only demote Du Liangdi to a commoner...

In the East Palace, Prince Li Heng's confidant, eunuch Li Fuguo, sent his servants to quietly send Du Liangdi away. With Prince Li Heng's apology in mind, he naturally took care of Du Liangdi who had been demoted to a commoner in private.

Du Liangdi's family was ruined overnight, and there was no East Palace to rely on. Perhaps the blow was too deep. After crying until she couldn't shed tears, her whole body became numb.

Dazedly aware of Li Fuguo's careful arrangements for him, Du Liangdi, who had already changed out of her gorgeous palace attire and turned to a plain jingchai sarong, was dazed for a long time before she thanked her with a hoarse voice that couldn't hide her embarrassment He said in a low voice: "Thank you Li Zhongguan for sending you off today. The prince is thinking about it, and Mrs. Du will keep it in his heart. There is nothing to repay in this life. I only wish to eat fast and chant Buddha, and pray for the prince."

Even though Du Liangdi had been demoted to a commoner, Li Fuguo still respectfully said, "Du Liangdi," relying on the fact that there was no one else around, and then sighed: "Since the mountains are high and the roads are far away, I hope Du Liangdi will cherish them, so that I don't worry about it." His Highness the Crown Prince misses you."

Du Liangdi twitched the corners of her mouth, she wanted to say "yes" with a smile, and say "each of you cherishes it", but after falling into such a situation overnight, she couldn't make this smile no matter what.

She doesn't blame Prince Li Heng, but she can't blame him either.The root cause of this tragedy is that Liu Ji falsely accused his father, Du Youlin, and Dong Gong was almost implicated...

Liu Ji falsely accused his father-in-law, Du Liangdi's elder sister couldn't bear such a disaster, she had already committed suicide, even if she hated her so much that she wanted to eat her bones, the culprit Liu Ji had already died under the heavy stick, the rest of the Du family It can only be said that fate tricked people when they suffered such a tragedy for no reason.

Then, Li Fuguo who sent Du Liangdi away finally returned to the East Palace.

In the Eastern Palace at this time, even though they were once again lucky enough to get away from Prime Minister Li Linfu's attacks, the atmosphere in the Eastern Palace was particularly dull and oppressive. There were maids and servants walking by in the palace from time to time, but they were all cautious. , there was only silence around.

Li Fuguo also immediately took a deep breath, held his breath, and walked quickly to the place where the prince Li Heng was. After paying his respects, he retreated from the crowd, and then whispered to the prince Li Heng some of his arrangements for Du Liangdi, and Du Liangdi's heart I still miss the prince, and I am willing to chant scriptures and pray for him for the rest of my life.

Prince Li Heng's face was immediately filled with emotion, thinking that he and Du Liangdi would never see each other in life and death, his heart became more and more pity and reluctance, and his voice seemed to be choked with emotion.

Seeing this, Li Fuguo naturally resigned at the right time.

In the midsummer afternoon, the courtyard is full of noisy cicadas.

Li Wenning didn't take a nap, but sat in front of the table, resting his stomach with one hand, showing a white wrist at the elbow, but there was a faint look of sleepiness in his expression.

Originally, Du Liangdi's relegation to a commoner had nothing to do with her, but, perhaps because of the abolition of the former Crown Princess Webster, Du Liangdi, who was in a somewhat similar situation, and could even be said to be even more miserable, felt for a while. In the meantime, Li Wenning couldn't help but feel a bit of sadness in his life.

After thinking about it, Li Wenning, who became more and more gloomy, simply stood up, planning to ride his horse and go outside Chang'an City to relax.

Li Wenning knew very well that even though Donggong had escaped from the case of Du Youlin's false accusation and seemed to be in good health, Li Linfu, who had failed twice, would only become crazier. The situation in Donggong was still very sensitive at this time, so she rode out. It is okay to take a walk outside the city to relax, but if you go to visit the former Crown Princess Webster in the nunnery outside the city at this time, you will definitely fall into the eyes of other caring people...

Even though the ex-prince concubine was abolished, she felt unavoidable towards her father, the crown prince, Li Heng, but Li Wenning was still very clear about her identity. She closed her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief. Anyway, the clothes she wore at home The clothes were light enough, and Li Wenning didn't bother to change into men's clothes. Distraught, he didn't even call his younger brother Li Tan, and directly led the horse out of the door, and ran towards the outside of Chang'an City.

The weather in Chang'an City was already hot, and in the summer afternoon, the sun was even more scorching. The leaves on the roadside were curled up by the sun.

Because of the scorching heat, there were fewer pedestrians on the road than at other times, and the peddlers who were hiding under the shade of the sheds were sweating profusely, and they were also provoked to feel a little drowsy.

Arriving outside Chang'an City, looking around, there are not many people on the outskirts of the river, and the plants and trees everywhere seem to be shivering under the sun.

Li Wenning got off the horse, let go of the rein and let the horse find a place to drink water and graze on its own. As for herself, she walked all the way to a tree, raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead, and leaned directly against the On the tree trunk, slightly closed his eyes.

I don't know how long it took, but after Li Wenning leaned back on the tree and felt a little drowsy, there was a soft cry not far away, "This little lady--"

Hearing the sound, Li Wenning raised his head and glanced over. The young gentleman who was walking towards Li Wenning's horse stopped at the second half of his sentence. After a pause, he immediately turned to say: "Princess?"

Li Wenning was also slightly taken aback, "Liu Erlang?"

The Hedong Liu family from Liutan is naturally also a famous family.

However, Li Wenning knew Liu Tan not because of this, but because the wife of Liu Tan's elder brother Liu Cheng was Yang Guifei's eighth sister.Not long ago, Concubine Yang was kicked out of the palace and returned to her natal family. Many people were watching the jokes. Unexpectedly, within a few days, Xuanzong missed Concubine Yang so much that she didn't even think about eating and drinking. The imperial concubine enters the palace...

Then, perhaps as a token of appeasement, Xuanzong conferred concubine Yang's older sisters, among them, Liu Cheng's wife was the newly prosecuted Mrs. Qin.How many people's jaws dropped in shock at the fact that Xuanzong favored Concubine Yang so much, even the brothers and sisters Li Chu, Li Tan and Li Wenning, who came from the Eastern Palace and had a rather special status, couldn't help but be amazed.

During the palace banquet, Li Wenning inevitably had a face-to-face meeting with Mrs. Qin. After meeting him twice, he and Liu Tan Liu Erlang naturally knew each other.

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Tan raised his hand to signal the reins of the horse in his hand, and then explained: "I was over there just now, and I saw that this horse was not being led and seemed to be going far away. I brought it to look for it in the distance, I never expected to meet the princess here."

Li Wenning reached out to take the reins, nodded slightly, and said softly, "Thank you Liu Erlang."

That Liu Tan had been watching Li Wenning's fingers on the rein, and then he looked back, hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help asking: "The princess is here, but what's the matter? I don't know if I'm here Where it can help."

Li Wenning finally raised his eyelids and took a fixed look at him.

·

In the blink of an eye, it was the beginning of the month, and in the courtyard where Xiao's old house needed to be rebuilt, the blanks of several main houses had all been completed according to the blueprints requested by Xiao Yansui.

As for the orientation of floor heating coils and heating pipes, Xiao Yansui had never really done engineering before. Her only experience was when the construction team was working at home when she was decorating her house. She stood by and watched so much. once.This time, she has to kiss and do it herself, so she has to think carefully, research and research, and decide on her ideas before making a move...

As for the purposely left windows, they are waiting for the construction period of the recently fired quartz glass.

The ancient craftsmen themselves did not know anything about chemistry and physics. What they relied on was their real experience.With Xiao Yansui's intervention now, it is actually a combination of traditional handwork and the quantification necessary for modern experiments. For experiments, the most direct way to get accurate values ​​is to eliminate the wrong data one by one, and the result is natural. it came out.

It's just that those quartz glasses are newly manufactured after all, and there is still a lot of room for improvement in terms of craftsmanship and practical operation. To be exaggerated, the transparency of those already produced glasses is said to be one day. Not too much.

In view of this, Xiao Yansui was not in a hurry to get the finished product, and planned to wait for those skilled craftsmen to practice their hands. After all, after all the renovations of this old house were finished, Xiao Yansui planned to give it to his grandfather Xiao Song, whether it was Glass windows or underfloor heating, of course they have to be done properly.

The beagle put its head on Xiao Yansui's lap affectionately, and let Xiao Yansui gently stroke its smooth and smooth fur with his fingers. He lowered his head and lowered his eyes to the several versions of newly made glass, thinking that these were not enough. When the white and transparent glass was of no use, Axiu came over suddenly, knocked on the door, and reminded: "Liu Niang, tomorrow is the wedding ceremony for the little lady of the local county guard."

Xiao Yansui immediately raised her head, her face suddenly stunned, "Oh yes, I'll forget it if you don't tell me."

Seeing this, Axiu just smiled, and said: "If Liu Niang goes there in person tomorrow, don't forget to tell Xianggong."

"Well, I'll talk about it later when I have dinner with Ah Weng." Xiao Yansui nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Go and look at the gift you prepared earlier, so you don't make any mistakes."

Axiu naturally nodded, "My servant understands."

After Axiu had prepared the congratulatory gift before going to see it, Xiao Yansui looked away, stretched out a finger, and tapped the glass twice with his knuckles, listening to the clear and crisp sound, As if discussing with a beagle, he said as if he was talking to himself: "Jijili, alas, thinking about this makes me have a headache..."
