Changle obviously didn't understand why her father and third brother were laughing. She was a little embarrassed and annoyed by the laughter of the two people. She couldn't help but said coquettishly: "Father, third brother, what are you laughing at? Do you think I'm too naive? "
"Hahaha, no, no, Aye is not laughing at you, Aye is thinking of something happy." Li Shimin laughed happily a few more times, and then said.
"Really?" Changle looked at Li Shimin and Li Ke with some suspicion.
"It's true." Li Ke also said with a smile, "You can go if you want. You can also help third brother and Aye by doing this, which is good."
"Really?" Changle's eyes lit up when he heard Li Ke say this.
"It's true." Li Ke was very serious. Women and men have different abilities. In most people's minds, women represent weakness, motherhood, etc., and are more suitable for scenes such as condolences.
The eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, if she really wanted to do something, she would be quite suitable.
"Then I'll go." Changle immediately nodded happily and agreed.
"However, it's not appropriate for you to visit these soldiers. How about this? Are you afraid of hardship?" Li Ke pondered for a moment and then said.
"Not afraid!" Changle immediately raised her head. What she was afraid of was that she had no chance to help her third brother and Aye, and could only wait in the palace to get married. As for suffering, she was not afraid.
"Compared to those soldiers, I think their families are more worthy of condolences." Li Ke thought for a while, and then said, "In this way, the royal family will pay a sum of money, and then use this money to purchase a new type of Quyuan plow. and a new-style columbine to go to the counties around Chang'an to express condolences to some people who have children at home and whose husbands have died."
"Wait a minute." Li Shimin next to him frowned, looked at Li Ke and said, "Have you ever used your sister like this?"
"Those people are far away from Chang'an. Once they go out, they can't come back in a day and a half. Wouldn't she be sick after all this trip? It's better to go to condolences to the soldiers. It's in the Sixteenth Guards. It's good to gather together. "." Li Shimin glared at Li Ke, "You usually love your sister very much, but when you use this, you don't feel bad at all, right?"
Have you ever done this? Can her body handle this?
"Father, I have always exercised." Chang Le was a little anxious. She even rolled up her sleeves to show Li Shimin that her arms also had muscles.
"Beautiful." Li Ke smiled and waved his hand, then turned to Li Shimin and said: "Dad, there are some things that you must either not do. If you do it, you must not neglect the reputation of the royal family. Since you have to do it for the sake of reputation, you must do it anyway. If you want fame and don't want to do anything, the people are just short-sighted and not stupid."
"So for this matter, either Li Zhi is not allowed to go, and Er Chen can go. Er Chen's status is also consistent, but if Li Zhi is allowed to go, it can't end in an anticlimactic manner." Li Ke said seriously.
"What are you talking about? Can you speak?" Li Shimin glared at Li Ke, "Don't use this word sparingly."
"Uh?" Li Ke was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that it was the word anticlimactic. After a pause, Li Ke said: "Dad, since we mentioned this, I think this thing needs to be changed."
Li Shimin: "..."
"Change what?" Li Shimin glanced at him sideways.
"Taboo." Li Ke said softly, "There are only two or three thousand commonly used characters in Chinese writing. If we say that we have lost an ancestor, we will avoid a word. The Tang Dynasty did not take too long. It was passed down to dozens of emperors, and there were few among the people. Use dozens of words. Over time, will there be any use for words in the world?"
"Erchen feels that there are three deaths in a person's life. The first time is the death of human consciousness, which is the death in our conventional sense, and the second time is when the human consciousness and body return to dust, dust to dust, completely Leave this world. And the third death is when no one in this world knows your existence anymore, and everyone has forgotten you and doesn’t know you.”
"The third death is the complete death of a person, so why continue this taboo? Again, respect always comes from the heart, not an explicit taboo. If a monarch is a tyrant, he will die No matter how he avoids taboos, the public will scold him as much as he deserves."
"On the contrary, if a person is a benevolent king, even if he does not shy away from it, the people will take him to heart."
"There is absolutely no need to avoid taboos like this. If things go on like this, don't all of the names in the folk need to be changed? If the tiger is changed to a big insect, if the carp avoids our Li family, it will have to change its name. After my grandfather passed away, people named Yuan will have to change their names. Change the name.”
"If things go on like this, what's the point of having the same text in books and the same track in cars? Isn't it true that many things are changed day by day? Many titles are constantly revised by the common people as the writing circulates. How difficult is it?"
"What is the greatest respect? Erchen thinks that if Li Zhi is considerate of the people and soldiers and constantly goes to comfort them, after a hundred years of Li Zhi, later generations will use the idiom "natural beauty" to describe a holy woman with beautiful appearance and kind heart. He thinks They have beautiful looks and big hearts, this is the greatest praise and respect!"
Changle blushed a little when Li Ke said it. The third brother's praise was a bit too much.
Li Shimin: "..."
He looked at Li Ke helplessly, "I just said one thing, you can say ten."
However, what Li Ke said is not unreasonable. For things like problems... it is really not easy to make this decision, because it is easy to be criticized by future generations for being unfaithful and unfilial.
"Let me think about it." Li Shimin has a headache. You really can give me a lot of problems wherever you talk. But this is not the same as national policy. If the national policy is changed, it will be changed. Every emperor's rule of governing the country will be changed. The concepts are all different, but it’s really hard to say about things like filial piety.
"Okay." Li Ke shrugged, "Li Zhi, do you want to go?"
Li Ke turned to Chang Le. Although Li Ke knew that this behavior was more painful, if Chang Le was really willing to do it, Li Ke would not stop her. People always have to find something they want to do, otherwise, it would really be impossible. It has become a tool for getting married and having children.
If you don’t do it now, is it possible to do it after you get married? In later generations, many women have become stay-at-home mothers after getting married. Although princesses do not need to coax children to take care of the family, they are more likely to attract criticism after getting married.
So now is the best time to do whatever you want to do.
"Think!" Changle nodded seriously. She had thought about doing various things to help Third Brother, but she soon discovered that Third Brother did not need her help in many places. As for learning from Aunt Pingyang, Let's not say that she can't succeed. Even if she does, it seems that the Tang Dynasty doesn't need it anymore.
