"Of course, the name of the weapon is good." Li Xian blurted out one sentence directly. Looking at the somewhat surprised Empress Wu, Li Xian said with some embarrassment: "Only after I became a father can I understand some of the practices of my father, the emperor, and the empress. It’s better for me to have a son.”
"Thank you, brother." Li Dan stood on the other side, looking excited and bowing his hands to Li Xian.
"Okay, okay, Queen Mother knows that you two have a deep love for each other as brothers, but both daughters and sons are of Queen Mother's blood, and Queen Mother is extremely happy." Empress Wu patted the arms of Li Xian and Li Dan, looking pleased.
There was a hint of surprise in Li Xuan's eyes, and she looked at Yuan Wanqing aside with some confusion.
Yuan Wanqing seemed to have noticed Li Xuan's gaze, and Yuan Wanqing turned around apologetically and handed over his hand.
After Princess Xiang became pregnant, she basically never left the house.
Liu Jinyu came to visit, but didn't say much.
After Li Xuan returned to Chang'an and Luoyang, the Prime Minister's Mansion never came to Li Xuan for consultation.
You know, according to rumors, Li Xuan has the ability to determine whether the fetus in her belly is a boy or a girl by diagnosing the pulse.
However, before Li Chongzhao was born, how dare the Prime Minister's Mansion let Li Xuan come.
After Li Chongzhao was born, the emperor named him the grandson of the emperor, and the Prime Minister's Palace was even more afraid to let Li Xuan come.
If it is confirmed that the child in Princess Xiang's belly is the royal granddaughter, the impact on Prince Xiang's palace will be great.
But not sure.
So Prince Xiang’s Mansion still found someone else.
That's why Empress Wu said what she said to test Li Xian just now.
But in fact, people like Li Xuan never taught Li Xian to be suspicious of his brothers.
Basically, they teach him to be filial, loving and loving.
This is very different from what King Xiang and the North Gate bachelor thought.
This is also the reason why Yuan Wanqing apologized just now.
…
Li Xuan waved her hand slightly and smiled gently at Yuan Wanqing.
He didn't care about this matter.
Li Dan does not pose a threat to Li Xian.
Every prince understands that the real threat to them is never his brothers, but his mother.
As Empress Wu's most loyal thug, Yuan Wanqing doesn't seem to understand this truth.
Li Xuan raised her head, her eyes serious.
The painful screams kept ringing in his ears, and Li Xuan was a little confused. Is the child born to Princess Xiang really a daughter this time?
Father and son Dou Zhijing and Dou Sitai were extremely restless.
They were as anxious as Li Dan, or even more anxious than Li Dan.
Occasionally, his eyes fell on Li Xuan, which brought out a hint of regret.
If Li Xuan could be consulted earlier, maybe the situation would not be so anxious.
Li Xuan's eyes fell on Doulu Qinwang.
Doulu Qinwang looked calm and steady.
In the Prime Minister's Palace, the person whose role is comparable to that of Huangfu Gongyi and Yao Lingzhang is Doulu Qinwang.
When Doulu Qinwang was released, he immediately became the governor of a state.
The Beimen bachelor wants to push the Prime Minister's Palace to investigate the hidden fields in Henan Road, so only Doulu Qinwang can come forward in this matter.
If he comes forward, then the long history of the Prime Minister's Palace...
A cry of "Wow" directly changed Li Xuan's thoughts. Li Xuan couldn't help but said in surprise: "It's a boy."
"Huh?" Empress Wu immediately turned around in disbelief and looked at Li Xuan with eyes full of surprise.
Li Xuan quickly handed over his hand: "I made a mistake."
"The King of Nanchang has great hearing power, he must be a boy." Empress Wu smiled with a smile on her face, glanced at Li Dan who was also surprised, and her eyes fell on the house.
A maid wearing a light blue skirt quickly walked out with a baby in her arms, knelt down directly in front of Empress Wu and said, "The Empress is the crown prince."
The baby was surprisingly quiet. Except for the first two calls when he was in the house, he basically didn't cry again when he went out.
"Very good." Empress Wu glanced at the wrinkled baby boy happily, and then said: "I just said, give him a name and make it into a weapon. Pearls and jade can make it into a weapon. I hope that my grandson will become a weapon and be good."
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Li Dan couldn't suppress his joy and saluted with his hands.
He didn't expect that he was actually a son.
He actually has a son.
"I will grant you the title of Prince of Yongping County, and I will grant you a thousand households." Empress Wu took off a jade plaque from her body and stuffed it into Li Chengqi's swaddling clothes, and then looked at Li Xian.
Li Xian smiled and took off a jade ring from his hand and stuffed it into the baby's body.
Seeing Li Xian's somewhat careless look, Empress Wu couldn't help but smile, and then turned her eyes to Li Xuan.
Li Xuan was slightly surprised, raised her hand, then took off a string of jade beads from her wrist and carefully put it into the swaddling clothes.
At this moment, Li Chengqi moved.
The white and tender little hand stretched up, and then grabbed the jade bead in Li Xuan's hand, and then a smile appeared on her face: "Giggle."
Seeing this sudden scene, Li Xuan was stunned. He looked at Empress Wu in surprise, and Empress Wu's brows had already furrowed.
Li Xuan quickly let go and then backed away slightly.
I saw Li Chengqi grabbing Li Xuan's jade beads and smiling non-stop.
This magical scene left everyone wondering what to say for a moment.
A good child, not close to his father or grandmother, but somewhat close to Li Xuan.
Seeing Li Chengqi staring at Yuzhu, Li Xuan's heart moved, then she came to Li Xian and whispered.
Li Xian's face was full of surprise, then he took out a jade gourd from his waist and carefully put it into the swaddling clothes.
The next moment, Li Chengqi reached out decisively and grabbed the jade gourd in his hand, and then smiled even happier.
Empress Wu understood immediately and laughed out loud: "This little brat has really unique hobbies."
Empress Wu's jade plaque bears the image of Maitreya Buddha.
Li Xian's jade ring was as clean as new.
On the contrary, Li Xuan's jade beads are carved with delicate bamboos, and Li Xuan's jade gourds are also carved with fine leaves.
Li Xuan looked at Li Chengqi's dark eyes and couldn't help but laugh.
No wonder he gave up the throne later on, it was just like that from his nature.
"Okay, send it back." Empress Wu waved her hand, then looked at Li Dan and said, "Be careful in the future and don't go astray."
"Here!" Li Dan suddenly became solemn.
Empress Wu looked at Li Xuan and said, "You left some of your exclusive nourishing prescription. From my perspective, these imperial doctors are not as good as your medical skills."
Du Wenyu, the imperial doctor who was standing under the door on one side, couldn't help but fell to his knees with a "pop".
Li Xuan then smiled bitterly and held up her hands: "The Queen, after I return, I will communicate more with Du Yuyi. Besides, in name, Du Yuyi is also my subordinate."
Even now, Li Xuan still has the responsibility of serving the emperor as a medicine expert.
He knew that this appointment would be inevitable for a while.
Because of this mission, Li Xuan was able to enter the palace in an emergency.
Of course, it's just one person.
"Okay, okay, you can go back and train yourself, and you have to take good care of me." Empress Wu waved her hand directly, and without waiting for Li Xuan to accept the order, she turned to look at Li Dan and said, "Empress Mother will be back soon. Palace, I still have to tell your father about such a happy event, he has another grandson."
"Yes!" Li Dan bowed his hands solemnly.
…
Under the starry sky, the carriage swayed towards the palace.
Li Xian smiled and said nothing along the way. He didn't know whether he was thinking of his own son Li Chongzhao or whether he was still thinking of Li Dan's son Li Chengqi.
Not far ahead was the Kaihuafang. Li Xuan whispered a few words to the outside, and the carriage immediately slowed down.
"Uncle Wang." Li Xian suddenly came back to his senses.
Li Xuan waved her hand and said, "There is something you need to remember today, Your Highness."
"Uncle Wang, please speak." Li Xian became completely solemn.
Li Xuan sighed softly and said: "Today, the author may have used some ingenuity. Regarding the matter of the fetus in the Prime Minister's palace, they probably didn't find anyone to distinguish the male and female, but they insisted that it was a girl. In this way , if Princess Xiang really gives birth to a daughter, then no one will be too disappointed, but if it is a boy, they will be extremely happy immediately."
"Ah!" Li Xian stared in disbelief. He couldn't tell that there was such a conspiracy.
"So in the future, your highness, when you are not sure whether things will be good or bad, you will first make bad guesses to prepare people. If good things happen in the end, you will be twice as happy immediately." Li Xuan handed over his hand, then turned around and got off the carriage. .
Li Xian nodded in confusion. At this moment, he saw a note placed on the short table opposite.
When I picked it up and opened it, there was a poem:
I know from afar who can climb the noble and noble, and the leisure in the sky is the leisure in the resort.
In addition to discussing the Tao of the sage, the poems written at that time fell into the world.
Li Xian was slightly startled, why is it such a poem?
Li Xian frowned. Is this poem about Li Chengqi?
But he is the son of Prince Xiang?
Why are you both leisurely and Confucian?
Li Xian paused with his hand in the air, then brought it back to his eyes, thinking carefully about Li Chengqi's small east palace today.
Everything is natural.
nature.
Could it be that this child has a noble nature and likes Confucianism and Taoism?
If this kind of comment were applied to ordinary people, it might be praised as a good word, but if it were applied to a prince's family, this is not a good word!
But that's a good thing.
Li Xian's heart moved, and then he clenched the paper with some shame.
When he returned to the back hall of the East Palace, Li Xian hurriedly threw the paper into the brazier and burned it.
At this moment, Crown Princess Wei Shi and the Crown Prince Li Chongzhao, who was being held by a maid, came in.
Li Xian's face suddenly showed a look of relief, shame, relief...
…
Li Xuan stayed alone in the study, with a huge map of Northern Xinjiang laid flat in front of him.
There are thick documents placed on the table beside him.
Li Xuan's eyes focused on the direction of Dingzhou, and then glanced towards Laiyunzhong Ancient City.
The distance between the two places is not close, and coupled with the obstacles of mountains and the defense of the Great Wall, it is not easy to pass.
But since the collapse of the Eastern and Western Turks, the barriers between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks have been relaxed a lot. They are mostly used for tax collection and there are not many precautions.
Now that the Turks are in turmoil, although Datang has begun to take precautions, it is not easy to completely change people's minds...
The sound of slight footsteps interrupted Li Xuan's thoughts.
Li Xuan looked up and saw Liu Jinyu walking in from outside holding a lantern.
"Husband!" Liu Jinyu hung the lantern on the door, then walked to Li Xuan's side and whispered: "It's getting late, what are you busy with?"
"It's a matter about Youzhou." Li Xuan glanced at the location of Dingzhou and whispered: "Today's defeat of the Shanyu Protector's Mansion was probably due to the betrayal of the traitor..."
"Like Dingzhou?" Liu Jinyu's expression suddenly became solemn.
Such things happened one after another in Dingzhou and Shanyu Protectorate. Will they also happen in other places in the future?
"Dingzhou is the Li family of Zhao County and Li Jiayun collaborated with the enemy, so what about the Shanyu Protectorate?" Li Xuan sighed softly and said: "If he is still a member of the Li family of Zhao County, then the Duke of Zhao will inevitably be dismissed as prime minister, but if it weren't for Zhao The Li family in the county must be other aristocratic families in Hebei."
"Didn't my husband ask Fan Yanglu to tell the Duke of Pingyuan County about her sincerity?" Liu Jinyu suddenly remembered what Li Xuan had done earlier.
Li Xuan shook her head slightly and said with a hint of worry: "The people who are worried about her husband are not just the Fanyang Lu family, the Zhaojun Li family, and the Qinghe Cui family, but also all the aristocratic families in Hebei.
They have been doing too much business with the grassland for many years. How many reasons have they been caught? "
Ashina Gudulu and Ashina Mochuoke have been hiding behind Ashina Nishugo, planning everything secretly.
"Husband, are you worried that the whole of Hebei will be in chaos?" Liu Jinyu suddenly took a breath of cold air.
Li Xuan shook his head slightly and said quietly: "It may not be a big mess if there is total chaos. After all, His Majesty's gaze is like a torch. If there is chaos, people will inevitably die in Hebei, and there will be many deaths."
