People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 1279: Sisters get along and the family is harmonious

Chang'an is prosperous and full of fireworks.

Li Xuan sat back in the carriage, looking out at the crowded Chang'an City through the swaying curtains, and couldn't help but sigh.

Immediately, a hint of amusement arose in his heart, but then he calmed down.

Waiting in the middle, writing orders in the middle.

There are so many things going on in the East Palace today, but there is actually only one thing: Xue Yuanchao is telling Li Xuan that he is not willing to be a colleague with Pei Yan in Zhongshu Province.

Li Xuan also grasped this point keenly and agreed.

Now there are only six real prime ministers in the palace, Liu Rengui, Hao Chujun, Li Jingxuan, Xue Yuanchao, Zhao Renben, and Liu Shenli.

It stands to reason that once Pei Yan surpasses Tong Zhongshu's subordinate Ping Zhangshi, he will immediately squeeze out one of Hao Chujun and Zhao Renben, and the other one will take over as Shangshu Youpushe, or he will not move. This person is very likely It's Zhao Renben.

But now, Xue Yuanchao believes that this person is probably Hao Chujun.

Once Hao Chujun becomes an official, Zhao Renben will succeed him and enter the Shangshu Province as Youpuse.

But if this person is Li Jingxuan, then a position will be immediately available in Zhongshu Province.

Pei Yan will immediately replace Li Jingxuan and enter Zhongshu Province, and will immediately threaten Xue Yuanchao.

This was what Xue Yuanchao did not want to see, so he hoped that Li Xuan would persuade Pei Yan to stop and go to Menxia Province to serve as a servant instead of coming to Zhongshu Province.

Looking at the people of Chang'an going back and forth outside the car curtain, Li Xuan couldn't help but smile.

It seems that he still has a lot to learn.

……

Kaihuafang, Prince Peng's Mansion.

Princess Peng helped Li Xuan up, and then said: "Come into the house and take a rest first when you go back. The same goes for the prince. I will take you to drink as soon as you come back."

"It's rare for the prince to be happy." Li Xuan glanced at Liu Jinyu, Pei Shitong and Liu Shubi and said, "My son went to see the damselflies first. Why did he suddenly fall ill?"

Li Xuan had just returned home. Liu Jinyu, Pei Shitong and Liu Shubi all came out to greet him, but Qu Douer was not there.

After asking, I found out that Kodou'er had contracted the cold and was still in bed.

Originally, she wanted to hold on to pick up Li Xuan, but Liu Jinyu suppressed her.

Not only her, but also several children in the family were not allowed to go out.

"Well, it's been cold recently, and many people in Chang'an have been infected with cold, but this happens every year." Ouyang was helped in by Li Xuan, and said at the same time: "You finally came back with me, it's time to leave." Take a walk beforehand.”

"My son knows." Li Xuan nodded seriously.

Entering the west room in the backyard, Liu Jinyu and the others stayed outside, only Li Xuan went in to see Qu Dou'er.

Kodou'er was wearing a pink silk dress, lying on the bed, dazed.

His face, which had some baby fat, was a little pale.

A piece of white silk was placed flat on his forehead, making his face even more pale.

The small nose couldn't help but twitch slightly, and it was obvious that something was not making sense.

Hearing the sound of the door, Qu Dou'er subconsciously opened her eyes, and then she saw a familiar figure entering the room. She subconsciously shouted: "Husband."

"Don't move!" Li Xuan sat on the bedside, carefully held Qu Dou'er in his arms, and pressed his left and right hands on her pulse gate at the same time.

When their skin touched each other, Qu Dou'er felt inexplicably shy. She didn't understand why they were still like this after they were already an old couple.

Li Xuan let go of Qu Dou'er's hand and stuffed it into the quilt, but Li Xuan did not take out his hand from the quilt.

Kodou'er suddenly felt his face getting increasingly flushed and hot.

Li Xuan whispered in her ear: "In the past few days, I will prescribe some medicines for you. You have a good rest. When you recover, my husband will accompany you well."

"Yeah!" Kodou'er bit her lower lip and responded softly.

Li Xuan smiled and finally stood up with satisfaction, then walked aside and quickly wrote a prescription, then made slight adjustments to the dosage, and then asked someone to boil the medicine.

It wasn't until the medicine was cooked, Li Xuan drank it with Qu Dou'er and watched her fall asleep that Li Xuan left the bedroom.

When they came to Pei Shitong's room, two strollers were placed together. Li Zhiyou had fallen asleep without knowing it, while Li Zhichang still had his eyes open. When he saw Li Xuan, Li Zhichang subconsciously opened his arms, " "Ah wu ah wu" and said something.

Li Xuan couldn't help but laugh. She reached out and picked up the young Li Zhichang, grabbed his little hand and said, "Call Aye, call Aye."

Li Zhichang was babbling for a long time, and then he uttered: "Mom!"

Li Xuan laughed a little loudly, but when he saw Li Zhiyou who moved and fell asleep again, his face became solemn.

"My husband will change the prescription later. After that, everyone in the family will drink a little, including the children, to avoid the infection of wind and cold." Li Xuan's words made Liu Jinyu immediately become serious. She nodded and said: "I Arrange it yourself.”

Li Xuan hugged Li Zhichang, then looked at Pei Shitong and said, "The prince just asked my husband to go to Luoyang in a few days to visit the officials and other relatives. By the way, he will welcome Pei Shangshu back to the capital. Shitong and my husband will go together."

"Okay!" Pei Shitong nodded in surprise. She originally thought she wouldn't be able to go to Luoyang this year. Liu Jinyu asked curiously: "But it's because of Pei Shangshu's stay in Xuzhou."

Li Xuan nodded and said: "Pei Shangshu was very unhappy with the Liu family in Pengcheng in Xuzhou and even killed several Liu clan members. Moreover, these people seemed to be related to Pei Shangshu's wife, but now some of them have arrived in Chang'an. Come to see Duke Pengcheng, things are getting a bit big."

Liu Jinyu raised his brows, and immediately understood the hidden meaning, nodded and stopped talking.

Li Xuan looked down at the two children, then couldn't help but smile and said, "It seems that this year at home, we have to teach these little ones to call Aye."

Liu Jinyu, Liu Shubi and Pei Shitong couldn't help laughing at the same time.

……

In the bedroom in the east courtyard, four-and-a-half-year-old Li Jinxia and her younger brother Li Zhizhao looked at Li Zhiming and Wulang, who were just two months old, lying in the stroller, with eyes full of curiosity.

At this moment, the door creaked, and then Li Xuan stepped in.

Li Jinxia and Li Zhizhao turned back at the same time, and then shouted happily: "Aye!"

Li Xuan reached out to pick up the pair of children who threw themselves into her arms, and then sighed softly: "You two are getting older and bigger."

"Aye!" Li Jinxia directly raised her head, looked at Li Xuan, and said happily: "Aye, have you come back to bring us a gift?"

"Here you go, someone will bring her in later." Li Xuan smiled, and then said: "Xia'er has reached the age to enter school. It seems that she has to learn something."

"Husband, Xia'er is still a little early." Liu Jinyu was a little surprised.

"Let's get started. You will have something to do next year. After that, let Xia'er teach Zhao'er, and you will save some energy." Li Xuan touched the top of Li Zhizhao's head, and then said softly: "Da Lang, remember to do it in the future Listen to my sister."

"Oh!" Li Zhizhao looked at Li Jinxia subconsciously, and saw Li Jinxia suddenly raised her fist and looked at Li Zhizhao proudly. Li Zhizhao immediately lowered his head in frustration.

Seeing this scene, Liu Jinyu and Liu Shubi both laughed at the same time.

Li Xuan let go of the pair of children and looked at the stroller on one side. In the stroller were Erlang Li Zhiming and Wulang, who was just two months old.

Li Zhiming's frame was the largest among the children, even bigger than Li Zhizhao's at that time. He had his eyes open and was babbling the same way, but he seemed much more lively than Li Zhiyou and Li Zhichang.

Li Xuan couldn't help but smile, and then said: "Erlang will be a good martial artist in the future, and my husband's future military skills may be passed on to him."

"What nonsense are you talking about? My Erlang doesn't always go into battle to take risks." Liu Jinyu rolled her eyes at Li Xuan angrily and walked over to hug Li Zhiming, the Marquis of Wuchang County.

Li Xuan gave a helpless smile and turned to look at the two-month-old Fengchang county uncle Wulang. The two-month-old baby was still sleeping soundly.

"Husband." Liu Shubi whispered behind Li Xuan. Li Xuan reached out and pulled Liu Shubi into his arms, and then whispered: "Siniang, I've suffered so much for you."

"It's not bitter." Liu Shubi smiled sweetly. Her son was born as an earl, which is much better than others who struggled all their lives to get a title.

"Please give me a name, husband." Liu Jinyu raised her head and glanced at her sister first, and then at Li Xuan.

In the expectant eyes of Liu Jinyu and Liu Shubi, Li Xuan pondered for a moment, and then said: "Zhao Ming You Chang, Gao Lang Jingfu, let's call him Li Zhigao."

"Li Zhigao, Fengchang County Bo Li Zhigao." Liu Shubi shouted in a low voice, his voice a little crazy.

Liu Jinyu looked at her sister's useless look, and then asked in a low voice: "How long can your husband stay at home this time?"

"After the fifteenth day." Li Xuan smiled, and then whispered: "My husband will spend more time with you this year."

……

In the darkness, the window paper was dim.

Liu Jinyu woke up without knowing when, and put a jade arm on Li Xuan.

At this time, she saw a pair of bright eyes looking at her.

Gently snuggling into Li Xuan's arms, Liu Jinyu asked in a low voice: "When my husband mentioned Pei Shangshu today, he was very cryptic, but what's wrong with it?"

Li Xuan nodded lightly and whispered: "Pei Shangshu has killed a lot of people in Xuzhou this time. It seems that he is creating conflicts with Duke Pengcheng and putting distance between him and Duke Pengcheng, but in fact he is reminding everyone , their relationship with each other.”

Liu Jinyu raised an eyebrow, and then said: "Yes, Pengcheng County Duke's cousin married Pei Shangshu. Even if Pei Shangshu deliberately created some conflicts, His Majesty will definitely not let the two of them stay in Menxia Province at the same time. This also gives His Majesty an excuse to separate the two of them."

"Since Pei Shangshu will not go to Menxia Province, even if he can go, there are only Zhongshu Province and Shangshu Province. How can Shangshu Youpushe belong to him? So it can only be Zhao Guogong who appoints Shangshu Youpushe, and Pei Shangshu goes to Zhongshu Province. ." After a slight pause, Li Xuan shook his head and said: "But I don't know why, Xiang Xue is unwilling to live with Pei Yan in Zhongshu Province, so I asked my husband to say something by the way."

Liu Jinyu immediately frowned and asked in a low voice: "Why would my husband interfere in such a troublesome matter?"

Li Xuan smiled softly and said: "Because there is another choice, that is, Hao Xiang becomes an official, Zhao Guogong is transferred to Shangshu Youpushe, and Pengcheng County Duke is appointed as Zhongshu Ling. Now it is enough, and the husband has an intuition , Pei Shangshu may not be willing to go to Zhongshu Province."

"Why?" Liu Jinyu asked subconsciously.

"If Shangshu Pei goes to Zhongshu Province, and if the Duke of Wenxi County also goes to the East Palace, it will be equivalent to the Pei family challenging Xiang Xue from Zhongshu Province and the East Palace at the same time. The smell of conflict here is too strong. "Li Xuan couldn't help but shake her head.

He has not forgotten that among these things now, there is also the matter of Pei Yan and Pei Xingjian competing for the position of minister.

Although many people are optimistic about Pei Yan, Pei Xingjian is not that easy to deal with.

"By the way, how is this year at home?" Li Xuan asked in a low voice.

"Everything is going well, especially Jiangnan." Liu Jinyu lowered her voice and said: "A large number of Nanchang's silks have gone to sea from Fuzhou..."
