Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After Li Chongjiu annihilated Ashina Momo, the grassland was shaken, and all tribes in Mobei surrendered to Li Chongjiu. Ashina She'er, Ashina Momo's younger brother, led Huihe and other Mobei Tiele tribes to surrender to Zhao.

    Mobei has been peaceful since then.

    In October, there was a severe drought in Guanzhong and a locust plague occurred. The people in Guanzhong had almost no harvest. Li Shimin used the royal treasury funds to purchase grain and provide relief to the victims, but it was only a drop in the bucket.

    There was a great sweat in Guanzhong, but floods occurred in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, flooding more than ten counties.  Bandits broke out all over the Jianghuai River, and the imperial history reported that the disaster was spreading to several counties. If no measures were taken, Du Fuwei and Fu Gongyou might appear again in the Jianghuai area.

    Li Chongjiu ordered Song Jinjiang to lead his army to suppress the rebellion. Within a month, the banditry in Jianghuai was calmed down. At the same time, Zhao transferred grain ships from Luoyang to Jianghuai for relief. After the people got food, Jianghuai soon became stable. The people in Jianghuai were all grateful to Li Chongjiu.

    In the same month, all counties in Hebei had a bumper harvest.

    In November, Li Chunfeng presented a new history book. Li Chongjiu was overjoyed after reading it and changed it to the Reform Calendar. The Reform Calendar abolished the calculation of seven leaps in nineteen years and was more accurate than the calculation of the Wuyin Yuan Calendar issued by Li Tang.

    Because the reform calendar is accurate, it does not delay the farming season, so it is widely adopted by the people. Not only the people of Zhao State, but also the people of Jingxiang and Hexi in Li and Tang Dynasties use the reform calendar to replace the reform year name with the reform year name.  After hearing this, Li Shimin ordered that the public should not have the reform almanac, and the whole family of those who kept it privately would be executed.

    If the people of the Tang Dynasty called the reform as the reign name instead of Zhenguan, they would all be punished.  There is much resentment among the people.

    In December, Li Chongjiu presented the reform calendar to Silla and Baekje, and the leaders of both countries were willing to use the reform calendar as their reign name.  Consecrate it as Zhengshuo and abolish private reign names.

    Five years of innovation.  Spring begins.

    History has turned a new page.

    The new palace of Zhao State, Linshuo Palace, was built, and Li Chongjiu named Li Zhiwan¡¯s son the King of England.  Emperor Yang E gave birth to another daughter for Li Chongjiu, who was named Princess Jinyang.

    Li Chongjiu also granted marriage to Zhouzhou and Pingping so that they could get married.  The two lovers finally get married.

    Li Chongjiu already has four princes, three princesses, and two children. All the officials came to express their congratulations.

    That month, another minister persuaded Li Chongjiu to choose one of his four sons as the crown prince, and Li Chongjiu kept the memorial.  No statement was made.

    All the ministers were very suspicious, but they did not dare to speak out.  Finally, the ministers recommended Su Su to the palace to inquire about Li Chongjiu's intentions.  Su Su Nai is Li Hu's sworn brother, and he is the most qualified person among the ministers of Zhao State to ask questions.

    In the main hall of Linshuo Palace, Su Su walked into the palace and immediately heard a string of laughter like silver bells. Su Su stopped and took a look and saw Li Chongjiu's legitimate daughter Caiwei running around in the palace with her bare feet.  , followed by several maids chasing after him.

    If you say that you are the most favored in the palace.  It belongs to Caiwei, the daughter of Li Chongjiu and Yang Ehuang.  As the Queen's legitimate daughter, Caiwei's background was different from others.

    Poor families all know the principle of raising sons in poverty and daughters in rich families.  It is another rule. As a prince, you may inherit the throne in the future, so you have been raised strictly since childhood.  For example, the eldest son Li Ying, Li Chongjiu asked about his homework every day.  No matter how busy I am with government affairs, I still write to him.  Tell him the principles of studying and being a human being.

    But girls are different. The princess of Zhao will get married in the future.  Since Pingping married Zhou Zhou, Li Chongjiu couldn't help but miss Pingping, so he just wanted to let his daughter stay with him in the past few years, and he could be a good daughter-in-law, and his discipline was not as strict as that of a prince.

    What¡¯s more, Emperor Yang E didn¡¯t give birth to a legitimate son for Li Chongjiu. Li Chongjiu always felt that he had wronged her, so he doted on Caiwei even more.

    However, Li Chongjiu's behavior does not mean that Yang Ehuang will let her go as she pleases, but Caiwei is also favored by Empress Xiao and Li Hu, so she is not afraid.  But when Emperor Yang E was away for a moment, Caiwei would turn the palace upside down.

    Caiwei trotted all the way, but she didn't recognize Su Su.  Although Su Su had met Caiwei several times, a child would never recognize someone.

    When Caiwei saw Su Su, she asked in a sweet voice, "Who are you?"  Why are you not afraid of being punished for breaking into the palace?  ¡®

    Su Su suddenly burst into laughter after hearing this. The palace maid on the side recognized Su Su's second-grade official uniform and did not dare to come forward and say anything when she saw it.

    ¡®Caiwei, please don¡¯t be rude and I haven¡¯t paid my respects to your Uncle Su yet!  ¡®

    On the side, Li Chongjiu came to the hall.  When Caiwei saw Li Chongjiu grinning, she immediately rushed to Li Chongjiu's feet and pulled his dragon robe. She shook her head resolutely and said, 'I don't want it!  ¡®

    Su Su saw that Li Chongjiu, as an emperor, had no temper at all because of his daughter. He couldn't help but smile and said: 'I have heard for a long time that your majesty loves the princess very much. I am really pleased to see this.  ¡®

    Li Chongjiu said: "You don't know that the Supreme Emperor loves Caiwei even more. He only restrained himself after meeting the Queen."points, otherwise we wouldn¡¯t have made a big fuss.  ¡®

    Next, Li Chongjiu said to Caiwei: Okay, I am tired from dealing with official duties today, so you should stop messing around here.  I want to talk to your Uncle Su.  ¡®

    Caiwei shook her head and said: 'No, if my father is tired, let me praise you. If I praise you, you won't be tired anymore.  ¡®

    'All right!  ¡®

    ¡®Father, your Caiwei looks so beautiful!  ¡®

    After hearing Caiwei¡¯s words, Li Chongjiu and Su Su were both stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

    Su Su looked at Li Chongjiu¡¯s family harmony and couldn¡¯t help but feel happy for him.

    Soon after Caiwei was taken away by the palace maid, Su Su said: "I remember when we were in Qiqian Village, the Supreme Emperor said that all of his Li family were descended from a single generation, so you are the hope of the Li family."  Now that your family is full of children, the old minister is also happy.  ¡®

    Li Chongjiu smiled and said: 'Su Qing, you must be here for something, so don't go around in circles.  ¡®

    "Your Majesty is wise," Su Sudao said, "I am here to be entrusted by hundreds of officials to advise your Majesty to establish a prince as soon as possible, to determine the country's major plans, and to consolidate the foundation for the future."  ¡®

    Li Chongjiu said: "If it were other ministers who asked me, they would definitely denounce them, but Su Qing is not an outsider. In this case, I will tell the truth. The eldest son Li Ying is young, and the other sons are still in their infancy. I don't want to establish a prince."  It's too hasty, think about it for two years.  ¡®

    Su Su said: "Your Majesty may not be in a hurry, but the ministers below have no such idea. At present, the emperor's eldest son is older, while the other sons are still young. Many ministers who hold the Huayi debate believe that your Majesty has a descendant of the Hu tribe."  The emperor's heart is the eldest son, so he is not at ease.  However, the ministers in the court who supported the establishment of the emperor's eldest son as crown prince believed that His Majesty's delay in naming the emperor's eldest son as crown prince was intended to allow other sons to succeed him. This might lead to conflicts among the ministers.  ¡®

    Li Chongjiu held down the dragon chair and said: "I know what they are thinking and persuade them to establish the crown prince. They will be able to help them in the future, so they all come out to fight."  And when it comes to setting up a reserve, some people want to invest early and gain a reserve for themselves in the future, but unfortunately I am not able to fulfill their wishes.  ¡®

    On the second day, news spread among the civil servants that Li Chongjiu had intended to establish a prince.  After hearing this, all the ministers became energetic and went to the main hall to listen to Li Chongjiu's orders.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
