Princess Jinyang frowned and looked suspiciously at the two people darting back and forth in front of her, as if she didn't exist at all...
There is inevitably some doubt in my heart.
She has always been respectful and close to her sister, who is a sibling, and her relationship with Princess Gaoyang is much better than that of the other princesses. Therefore, she hopes that her brothers and sisters will love each other and not quarrel with each other.
Furthermore, she also hopes that Fang Jun, her brother-in-law, can get closer to Sister Changle, after all, they are all her closest relatives.
But now it seems... it seems... it seems... these two people are a little too close?
The words he spoke seemed to be dissatisfied, but in fact there was something in his eyes that could not be resolved. Rather than saying that the two were bickering, it was more like flirting...
This made Princess Jinyang feel a little sour, as if her favorite toy had been snatched away by her sister. She was willing to share it, but she was inevitably unhappy.
Princess Jinyang stretched out her fingers, knocked on the coffee table next to her, and said softly: "Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? You are squinting in front of my sister, you are a bit unscrupulous, aren't you?"
"What nonsense are you talking about..."
Princess Changle suddenly woke up and quickly averted her eyes to look at Fang Jun's face. However, she did not dare to face her sister. She reached out and touched her cheeks that were as hot as fire. She panicked in her heart and said shyly.
Fang Jun was much thicker-skinned. Instead, he raised his eyebrows at Princess Jinyang and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law is playing around with your sister. How can there be any suspicion? Don't say this easily, otherwise it will ruin your sister's reputation." Festival."
Princess Changle became more and more ashamed. How could this be related to her reputation?
It's as if I did something shameful and shameful to you...
Princess Jinyang was most concerned about what was going on with these two people. She stared at Fang Jun and asked, "My brother-in-law asked Sister Gao Yang to advise my father. Will my father agree?"
Fang Jun smiled bitterly and said, "Who knows? But other than that, Wei Chen can't think of anything else."
Princess Jinyang clenched her fists and said impatiently: "Then without further ado, go back and discuss with Sister Gao Yang to see how best to talk to your father. We will wait in the palace. When we arrive, It’s time to go to the Father with Sister Gao Yang.”
This girl usually likes to read books when she has nothing to do. She doesn't read much classics and history. What she mostly reads are biographies of strange people and poems and poems that little girls like. Therefore, the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, which is most favored by literati, has become a very longing for girls. place.
A long time ago, the south of the Yangtze River was actually a barbaric land. Even though Sun Quan defended Jinling and proclaimed himself emperor, the south of the Yangtze River was still regarded as an uncivilized wilderness by the Central Plains people. The mountains were covered with smoke and smog, and the mountains became more violent. Only criminal officials were exiled there. , and company with the savage people in the miasma.
However, the Jin Dynasty collapsed, and the northern Central Plains was trampled by the iron hoofs of the barbarians, and the people were devastated and corpses were everywhere. The orthodox Central Plains had to temporarily avoid its attack, and the whole family migrated, and their clothes and clothes were transferred southward. They took advantage of the natural gorge of the Yangtze River to resist the barbarians from going south. Only then did they retain their The Han family accounts for half of the country.
Since then, countless people from the Central Plains have poured into the south of the Yangtze River and began to spread throughout the country. The fallen leaves took root. Advanced culture and planting technology were introduced at the same time. With the warm climate and abundant rain in the south of the Yangtze River, farming civilization developed better.
By the time of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Jiangnan had become one of the most important grain-producing areas in the world.
The culture from the Central Plains began to take root in the Jiangnan area, and gradually began to flourish with the development of Jiangnan. For a time, the flowers were blooming and became spectacular.
By the time the Sui Dynasty unified the north and the south, the Jiangnan region had become a culturally and economically extremely developed region. By the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in chaos, with countless heroes vying for supremacy in the world, and fighting in Hebei and Shandong for years. As a result, the vitality of the Central Plains region was greatly damaged, and Shandong could only rely on The family background is struggling to support itself.
The Jiangnan region, with its warm climate, pleasant scenery, and relatively stable political dynamics, has become a place of longing for countless poets, poets, and literary scholars.
Especially for Princess Jinyang, who looks cute and naive, but is actually a bit of a literary youth, she has great appeal.
See the prosperity of Yangzhou, appreciate the clear and mighty river, feel the drizzle in the south of the Yangtze River, and appreciate the gentle breeze under the red paper umbrella. The graceful woman with green hair like a waterfall walks barefoot on the small bridge and the flowing water. , people in narrow alleys...
It is truly a paradise on earth.
What else could Fang Jun say? I had no choice but to accept Her Royal Highness's decree with great emotion: "I will do my best to fulfill my mission!"
…
Seeing Fang Jun's back walking out of the palace gate, Princess Changle lowered her eyebrows and breathed a sigh of relief.
She seemed to be feeling more and more pressure when facing Fang Jun, especially Fang Jun's fiery eyes that often made her feel confused. She knew that this was almost a relationship with poison, but it made her flustered and at the same time like drinking. The sweet rain makes me want to stop.
If things go on like this, she really doesn't know if she can still hold on to the bottom line if one day Fang Jungou becomes daring and animalistic...
The palm that had always been delicate and white waved in front of her eyes, which startled Princess Changle. When she came back to her senses, she heard Princess Jinyang's doubtful voice in her ears: "We have been gone for so long, but my sister is still crazy. Looking at it crazily, what are you thinking about?"
Princess Changle let out a breath, ignored the teasing in her sister's words, and said slowly: "Even if you can get your father's permission this time, my sister will not accompany you to Jiangnan."
Princess Jinyang suddenly became anxious. She stepped forward and took her sister's hand, wondering: "Why is this? Anyway, my sister is either doing nothing in this palace or going to the Taoist temple in Zhongnan Mountain to practice Taoism. Let's go south together. Wouldn't it be nice to be free and carefree? Besides, reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles, Buddhism also emphasizes that "you can be born only by entering the world." Appreciating the mountains, rivers, wind and moon, and feeling the various conditions of the world are no better than the ancient Buddha of Qingdeng alone. Can you better understand the essence of Taoism through hard work?"
Princess Changle was quite surprised and said in amazement: "At such a young age, you can actually understand such profound Taoism?"
Princess Jinyang frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Sister, don't interrupt me!"
Princess Changle said helplessly: "My sister is different from you after all. You are still young, so you don't need to pay too much attention to rules and etiquette. After all, you haven't been engaged yet. Even if someone is dissatisfied and your father is protecting you, it won't be a big deal. But my sister is a divorcee. He is a man with a body that is in ruins, and he is already burdened with countless slanderous rumors. If he leaves Beijing thousands of miles to go to the south of the Yangtze River, rumors will spread everywhere, and I am afraid that the reputation of our Li Tang royal family will be ruined."
"Bitter!"
Princess Jinyang wrinkled her nose, her little face full of disapproval: "Don't think that because I am young, I don't understand anything. Do we, the Li Tang royal family, still have a good reputation? Hum, even if we did, it would be long gone. She was completely ruined by our Aunt Fang Ling. Besides, there were endless rumors about the princesses and ladies in this palace all day long, and I heard them all. They were all dissatisfied. Being a woman has made people all over the world try to slander the reputation of our royal family, but in the end, sister, you have to bear the responsibility? There is no such reason!"
From the beginning to the end, the reputation of the Li Tang royal family was not very good. After all, His Majesty Li Er's behavior of bringing all his brothers and sisters-in-law into the palace was really a scandalous behavior in the eyes of Shandong aristocratic families and Jiangnan gentry who inherited Confucianism. However, the Guanlong nobles all have Hu blood in their blood, and they believe that these things are perfectly justified, and they don't care about the opinions of the Shandong aristocratic families and the Jiangnan nobles. Anyway, I have a big fist, and the truth is on my side, and I will do whatever I want. cover up.
Under such a trend, can you expect the princesses born from the late emperors to be as pure as jade and as pure as ice?
The reason why Princess Fangling was disgraced was because her husband broke up her tryst with her best friend Yang Yuzhi on the spot, and Dou Fengjie directly tortured Yang Yuzhi to death. This caused an uproar and attracted the attention of the world.
In fact, there are many people who are more bold and over-the-top than Princess Fangling...
This is the cultural difference. In the eyes of the Li and Tang royal family who were born in the Guanlong aristocracy, these are commonplace, but the Shandong aristocratic families and Jiangnan gentry, who are deeply influenced by Confucian culture, cannot take it seriously. Although due to lack of strength and small fists, I can only protect myself and cannot interfere, but I can't help but complain and despise in private to show my legacy of poetry and etiquette.
But are these people really cleaner than the Li Tang royal family?
Not necessarily so.
It's just that one party is unscrupulous and does whatever he wants, while the other party is secretive and wants to say nothing. In fact, the things they do in private are very similar.
