Li You's Tang Dynasty

Chapter 523
Li Zhi went to the Chenxi Palace, and then Li You also went. At this time, the Chenxi Palace was also full of people. Pavilion". Not only that, many guards also came.

Anyone who came over was given a little snack to eat.

In addition to these maids and eunuchs, many relatives of the concubines came outside. From here, you can see the fire in the "Peony Pavilion". The three noble concubines in the harem all came, and Xu Hui also came.

Now Xu Hui and Concubine Yin are very close, and they are very intimate in the palace.

Li You did a rough calculation. At this time, there were at least a thousand people in the Chenxi Palace, and just as it was about to start, Li Shimin also hurried over from the Ganlu Palace, because Li You was at the end, Li Shimin saw Glancing at Li You, he asked, "Why don't you go inside?"

Li You didn't speak yet.

Li Shimin said 'oh': "You don't know how many times you have watched it, so let's leave it to those who want to watch it. By the way, next time, if Master Shao and Master Xiao have other big dramas, you can come to the palace to queue up for me first." Take a look, it's true!"

After finishing speaking, Li Shimin hurried into the Chenxi Palace. As soon as the Majesty came to the Chenxi Palace, the "Peony Pavilion" officially started. Yang Qu on the side stayed for a while and said: "Your Highness. Your Majesty likes it very much." "The Peony Pavilion", I secretly watched it once when I was on Weibo last time, and after watching it, I exclaimed that it was beautiful, and I wanted to watch it again, but because Master Shao and Master Xiao are my daughter-in-law, So I have some concerns.

Your Highness, if possible, if there is a new play, you can go to the Morning and Night Palace to perform it first.! "

Just after the words were finished, a female voice suddenly rang out inside, and Yang Qu was excited: "Oh, everyone Shao has come out, and the old slave is going in. Your Highness, remember what the old slave said."

Afterwards, Yang Qu quickly ran into the Chenxi Palace.

"Let it be, let it be a group of monkey cubs, don't block someone's way."

Hehe, I have already said that Datang is very keen on star chasing, not much more sensible than modern star chasing. Yang Qu likes Liu Mengmei played by Xiao Yan very much. Last time, he sneaked to Dunhuafang to meet Xiao Yan. Seeing Xiao Yan's happiness, Li You finally saw that Yang Qu liked Xiao Yan and Shao Yiyi so much, and found two folding fans on purpose, when Shao Yiyi and Xiao Yan signed their names on them.

If you didn't see it, Yang Qu was overjoyed.

Folding fans have been around since the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and there is nothing unusual about them. However, it should be the first time to sign the idol's calligraphy on the folding fan as a commemorative form. Yang Qu put away the two folding fans carefully, which is called carefulness.

Seeing Yang Qu rushing in, just when Li You was about to take a look from a distance, who knows, a few more people rushed over at a trot, Yu Chigong, Cheng Yaojin, Li Lizhi, Changsun Chong.

"Sister, you can't run!" Li You yelled dumbfoundedly when he saw the person coming.

Then Cheng Yaojin turned around and said: "Your Highness, the old minister has already told you, don't run away, but you just don't listen!"

"It's still... Isn't it because you want to occupy seats for your ladies, and you will occupy ten seats by yourself, can we not run away...?" Chang Sun Chong said speechlessly.

"That can't be blamed on the old minister. There are many family members of the old minister, and they all want to come and see, but the old minister only got the news, so he had to send someone to report the news, and then the old minister came to occupy the seat." Cheng Yaojin chuckled.

"The two of you are the same, so there will be twenty seats. If we don't run, will we still have a seat?" Li Lizhi said absurdly.

"The old minister and I are too many people!" Yu Chigong smiled, then turned around and shouted: "The minister will go in first, please wait for a while!" Following Yu Chigong, he ran in first in a bad manner.

Cheng Yaojin on the side yelled: "You old Heitan. Wait for me.!" followed Cheng Yaojin and rushed in.

"Chong Lang. Let's go!" Li Lizhi was unwilling to show weakness and wanted to rush into the Chenxi Palace with her eldest grandson Chong, but she was dragged by Li You, because the rush was too fierce, so Li Lizhi Li Zhi fell into Li You's arms.

"Fifth Brother. What are you doing? Everyone in Shao has started!" Li Lizhi angrily knocked on Li You.

"Yes, Your Highness King Qi, don't stand in the way, if we go late, we won't have a seat." Chang Sun Chong was also anxiously preparing to enter the Chenxi Palace.

"Elder Sister..." Li You was speechless: "The performances are your younger siblings, it's not like you haven't seen them before, why do you still do this, and you should have seen them several times, why do you still want to see them. "

"What do you know? What we are watching is a play, not a person. Okay, okay, don't block me, I'm going in." After speaking, Li Lizhi trotted in.

On the contrary, Changsun Chong stopped, took out more than a dozen folding fans from his clothes, and handed them to Li You: "Your Highness, please help me. Please sign everyone Shao and Xiao.

These belong to my mother, aunt, cousin, and cousin. One of them belongs to my father. My father likes everyone Shao. "

After finishing speaking, Chang Sunchong blinked at Li You with an expression that you understand.

"Wow, the groupies of the Tang Dynasty are really amazing!"

Li You sighed, but at this moment, Li You suddenly thought of a good way of publicity.

You must know that the recruitment of 5000 soldiers of the Huben Guard is a huge project. Now it is ancient times, and the news is blocked. Suddenly recruiting 5000 soldiers requires a particularly large advertisement.

In the beginning, Li You was worried about how to publicize, but now it seems that there is already a good way of publicity.

At this moment, Li You also heard the singing in the Chenxi Palace. Shao Yiyi was really good, and Xiao Yan and Xiao Yan had only practiced for less than half a month before going on stage together. red.

And the degree of popularity is really unbelievable. Of course, in the entire Tang Dynasty, Li You should be the only one who can tolerate his woman showing her face outside like this.

So Shao Yiyi and Xiao Yan are actually happy.

At the end of a performance, the entire Chenxi Palace burst into applause. Shao Yiyi and Xiao Yan took the curtain call together, and even Li Shimin said hello. It was really a big hit.

At this time, seeing his two wives on fire, Li You called his carriage over as if to please him, and then Li You used his carriage to pick up his two wives back to Dunhuafang.

In the four-wheeled carriage, Li You received his three wives, Cui Xiuniang, Shao Yiyi, and Xiao Yan. You don't know how many palace maids and eunuchs in the palace were reluctant to part when the three left.

Fortunately, His Majesty was there, otherwise, everyone would rush over to bid farewell.

In the end, I didn't know how many white folding fans were thrown up. I wanted Shao Yiyi and Xiao Yan's autographs. Li You sat in the car and counted them, and there were more than 100.

"You all want to sign?" Li You asked, shaking the white folding fan in his hand.

"Of course, everyone loves us, so we must sign." Shao Yiyi happily picked up a white folding fan.

"What about you?" Li You looked at Xiao Yan and asked.

"I want to sign too. By the way, sir, didn't you say that you want to build a grand theater for us, and when we can see it?" Xiao Yan looked at Li You and asked.

"Yes, when will the construction of the Grand Theater start? Also, when will we have a second show besides this one? I feel that one play is really not enough."

Cui Xiuniang is now the manager of Shao Yiyi and Xiao Yan.

"Don't worry, it will take some time before the grand theater is built. We are building the academy now, and after the academy is completed, the construction of Sizi's princess castle will also start, so the grand theater should be postponed."

"Hey!" The three girls showed slightly dissatisfied expressions.

But at this time Li You laughed: "Don't worry, the Grand Theater will definitely be built, but ah, when the Grand Theater is built, you have to do something for me."

"What's the matter?" The three girls looked at Li You and asked.

Following Li You's words, he wanted three girls to help him publicize that he was going to recruit Huben Guard. A total of 5000 people were recruited, and each person's monthly salary was five guan. Besides these monthly salary, there were some other benefits. Eat, wear, live, especially live, if you perform well, you will have the opportunity to bring your family to live in Dunhuafang.

You must know that Dunhuafang is a place where many people in Chang'an dream of living. As long as you enter Dunhuafang, you can live a stable life. As long as you are not lazy, your life in Dunhuafang will only get better and better.

But what surprised Li You was that even though his own conditions were already so good, there were still very few people who came to sign up for recruitment. Li You's conditions were already very high. Tang has a kind of thinking, that is, a good man should not be a soldier.

There is a Chinese saying: "Good iron does not drive nails, and a good man does not serve as a soldier", which is used to describe the ancient people's concept that being a soldier is ashamed.Many people think that this proverb originated from the Song Dynasty, which valued literature over military affairs. It is believed that Zhao officials, in order to prevent military generals from usurping power and pursuing a policy of emphasizing literature and suppressing military affairs, formed the concept of being ashamed of being a soldier among the people, and it has been passed down to this day.

In fact, this is not the case. As early as the Qin and Han Dynasties before the Song Dynasty, good people began to dislike soldiers, and the concept of "good men should not be soldiers" and despise soldiers has been formed.

The main reason is that the death rate has greatly increased due to the intensification of the war.

War is cruel. It doesn’t matter whether a cat is black or white. It is a good cat that can eliminate the opponent. Therefore, all countries strongly reward war killings. The treatment of captives and soldiers is often a large number of killings, in order to weaken the enemy’s combat effectiveness.

The increase in the death rate first brings about a serious shortage of soldiers. In order to recruit soldiers, all countries try their best to encourage men to serve as soldiers, and even use cruel punishments to intimidate and force them. The system of all soldiers, under such a military scale, the war will only become more tragic.

In the Tang Dynasty, although it was said that soldiers could eat food, but now the people of the Tang Dynasty have a little savings, unlike the Sui Dynasty or the Southern and Northern Dynasties, when they could not eat enough or wear warm clothes.

The government soldiers have no choice but to fight for the land, to leave the land for future generations, but the recruitment is only paid, there is no land, and who wants to work for five pennies?
