Super System in Chutang

() Thirteenth year of Zhenguan.

Chang'an City was in turmoil this year. First, the East Palace was flooded for no reason, which was an ominous sign. Later, the bride of the Zheng family was robbed, which prompted Li Shimin to rewrite the "Chronicles of the Clan". The conflicts between several families became more and more intense! Among them, especially

The Long family headed by the Li family

The conflict between the Western Group and Shandong (east of Mount Wei) headed by the Cui and Lu families is at its peak! The Li family dominates the world and is dissatisfied with the arrogance of the gentry headed by several families; while the gentry hopes for further advancement in politics and other fields.

expansion.

This year, border conflicts broke out again.

The Gaochang Kingdom lost its courtesy. According to past historical experience, the loss of its courtesy was a precursor to invasion. So the Tang Dynasty took a preemptive strike, appointed Hou Junji as a general, and sent hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers to attack the Gaochang Kingdom!

The leader of the Gaochang Kingdom, Qu Wentai, lived in Yelang and was arrogant! He thought that the mountains of Gaochang were poor and the rivers were bad, and the cold wind was like a knife and the hot wind was like burning. He was so arrogant that he was not afraid of the elites of the Tang Dynasty!

Unexpectedly, within a few days, the Tang army made only one attack, then went straight to Huanglong and reached the gates of Gaochang City!...

When Qu Wentai saw this, he was shocked and frightened. He was so frightened that he became seriously ill! Within a few days, he died! His son Qu Zhisheng opened the city gate to welcome the Tang army.

It's exactly this: Gaochang's soldiers and horses are like frost and snow, and Han's soldiers and horses are like the sun and the moon. The sun and the moon shine on the frost and snow, and they will destroy themselves if they fight back!

Hou Junji captured Gaochang State immediately, and he was very happy. He thought that it was because he was like a god in using troops. He only thought that the military god was nothing more than this in the world! He became more and more arrogant and disrespectful!

When he entered the gate of the imperial city, he saw a huge palace! Although it was far less magnificent than the Imperial Palace of the Tang Dynasty, it was still extraordinary! His eyes became hot, and he sent a few of his confidants to guard the doorway, and he walked in alone.

After entering the empty hall, I stepped up the jade steps. Looking at the throne that was high up but right in front of me, my heart felt hot. I took two steps forward and sat on it!

Hou Junji stood high on it, overlooking the entire palace. As he looked around, he felt proud and majestic, which could not be concealed.

When he saw the hall inlaid with jade and gold, his eyes grew hot, and he began to think. Hou Junji called a few guards and went straight to the treasury of Gaochang Kingdom.

As soon as the door of the treasury was opened, the gold and jade suddenly dazzled everyone's eyes! Hou Junji's eyes were red, and his greed could no longer be concealed, and he actually wanted to put all this huge treasury into his pocket!

Naturally, the huge commotion in the palace treasury could not be hidden from the Tang army under Hou Junji. Everyone in the army was moved when they saw the general acting like this. They all instantly turned into bandits, killing people, robbing homes, and robbing homes and houses. They did anything and plundered money and materials to their heart's content!

For a time, millions of lives in Gaochang Kingdom were wiped out!

It stands to reason that the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the whole army is an accomplice. This has been done before, and no one will say anything about it. That's it. But who knows, just one day later, this matter has spread throughout Chang'an City! Li Shimin

Even more shocked!

Not to mention what happened after that. All the generals made achievements by attacking without reward or punishment. Hou Junji was dissatisfied because he could not be granted the title of prime minister, so the root of a disaster was sown!

As for the invisible hand behind this incident, no one noticed it.

It is late summer, and the autumn wind has begun. This time is the hottest time of the year. Folks call it "Autumn Tiger".

As usual, Li Xingzhi was sleeping in the coolness of a small pavilion in the middle of the lake. Suddenly he felt an itchiness on the tip of his nose. The cicadas chirping around him disappeared. He put his hand on his nose, opened his eyes, and looked at the helpless girl in front of him.

He said with a bit of doting: "Why can't I bear it anymore? I'm not a child anymore, but I still like to play so much."

The girl in front of her was Li Linzhi. She was someone who couldn't stay still, and the hot summer day made her heart agitate even more. Every day, she thought about what fun things there were in Chang'an City. Riri was haunted.

Li Xingzhi went here and there, selling things and doing that, making Li Xingzhi unable to have any peace for a moment!

At first, he had some interest and interest in playing and making noises with the girl, but as time went by, he could only do more. Unexpectedly, he just came to the pavilion to cool down today, and he was caught by the girl.

"Tell me, what is there to do in Chang'an City today?" Li Xingzhi pinched a big sweet pear with a reddish brown color, took a bite, wiped the juice from his mouth with a towel, and then said.

"I heard that the Tibetan people from the west brought a team here to compete with me in polo from the Tang Dynasty! It will be fun!" said the girl.

Li Xingzhi listened to the girl's words, looked at the scorching sun on his head, and said helplessly: "Look at how sunburnt the sun is, how can anyone play polo at this time?"

"I don't care! Anyway, it is said to be in the afternoon, and there is polo to watch at the ball pavilion. My brother Li is going with me!"

Li Xingzhi rolled his eyes, glared at her angrily, lay down lazily on the wicker chair, grabbed a large lotus leaf several feet in diameter, covered his head, and ignored the noisy girl in front of him.

Seeing Li Xingzhi's lazy and lifeless look, the girl glanced at him, grabbed Li Xingzhi's shoulders and shook him violently, even if the lotus leaf covering Li Xingzhi's head was shaken off.

Li Xingzhi saw that things were not going well and said again: "Go and find out the time. Isn't it just right for us to go at that time? You see it's so hot right now. By the time the polo match starts, everyone will be dizzy!"

The girl rolled her eyes and said: "Sister Zhou hasn't been home for several years. I think she is thinking about it! Why don't we go to her house today?"

When Li Xingzhi heard the girl's words, he felt a little ashamed. Because of his past events, he was extremely unfavorable to the Zhou family, especially his father-in-law, and had never thought of visiting the Zhou family. And Zhou Rou'er

Seeing that Li Xingzhi didn't mention it, I didn't dare to ask more questions. So, for several years, I never went home to see it.

As for Li Linzhi, naturally it was not all for Zhou Rouer's sake as she said. It was entirely because of her own stupidity that she couldn't stay in this house.

After all, the Zhou and Li families were not noble nobles, and Li Xingzhi didn't treat his father-in-law very well, and he didn't have a very good impression of the Zhou family, so he didn't make any more preparations. He just asked people to visit the Zhou family.

After hearing the news, he took his two daughters and a few servants Jianzhuang, pulled a carriage with fruits, fragrant tea, silk cloth, etc., and headed for Zhou's house.

After all, this was his first time visiting, so even if it was for Zhou Rou'er's sake, the gift couldn't be too light. Of course, in Li Xingzhi's eyes, ordinary things and not heavy gifts were already very good in the eyes of others.

Not to mention the fruit and tea that can't be found in the palace, just those few pieces of exquisite satin-textured snow silk brocade will make many noble ladies covet it!

When the Zhou family saw that Uncle Li, who had not visited for several years, was coming, they immediately got busy. Everyone was happy, and they didn't care about whether the etiquette of this noon visit was thorough.

The parents of the Zhou family were even more overjoyed when they heard that Li Xingzhi was bringing their daughter back. The many wrinkles that Zhou's mother had acquired in recent years seemed to have faded away at this moment! The worries they had felt for their daughter in the past had turned into nothing at this moment.

Joyful.

Zhou's father did not dare to be negligent, nor did he care to act like an elder. He took his servants and stood at the gate of Zhou's house to greet him. Naturally, he had a deep meaning in doing so. Since he knew through some channels that the Li family had robbed Zheng Cui, a high-ranking family member,

The marriage between the two families was still established after the city of Chang'an was still intact, and they were greatly shaken. They had longed to come to the door again to get married. At this time, when Li Xing came to the door, how could he dare to show off?

Zhou's mother didn't have any objections to Zhou's father's decision. She was a womanly person, and as long as her children were well, that would be fine. As for other important matters, it was up to her men to handle them.

While everyone in the Zhou family was looking forward to it and waiting anxiously, two bullock carts drove over smoothly. When they arrived at the door of Zhou's house, the driver shook the reins lightly, and the bullocks stopped naturally.

Seeing this, the Zhou family and his wife went inside to greet them. The curtain of the carriage in front opened, and without waiting for the help of a servant, a handsome and refreshing young man jumped out. He glanced at the Zhou family and his wife and bowed slightly.

Then he went to lead the two people in the carriage down.

Zhou's father looked at the young man's temperament in front of him and marveled over and over again. But Zhou's mother next to him frowned slightly, looking at the carriage in front of him with worry and expectation, as if to remove the thick cloth.

You can see through the curtain.

"Brother Li, we're here!" At this time, a clear and melodious voice came from inside the carriage, and at the same time, a girl held Li Xingzhi's arm and gently jumped out of the carriage.

Seeing the bright and beautiful girl in front of her, Zhou's mother felt a little more worried about her daughter's situation for some reason. Then she poked her head expectantly, trying to get a clear look inside the carriage. Unfortunately, the thin bead curtain remained hidden.

It blocked Zhou's mother's view so that she could not clearly see what was going on inside.

While Zhou's mother was waiting anxiously, a plain white jade hand stretched out and gently touched Li Xingzhi's arm, and a jade-like man walked out of the carriage.

When everyone saw this woman, it was obvious that she was not the most beautiful one they had ever seen, but just looking at it, they felt a coolness all over their bodies. The heat of the summer afternoon was all gone at this moment, and their restless hearts were gradually soothed.

flat!

Everyone in the Zhou family felt that the woman in front of them looked familiar, but when they thought about it carefully, they didn't know where they had seen her before.

Mother Zhou stared blankly at the woman in front of her, her mouth moved, and she wanted to step forward, but she didn't dare to acknowledge her.

Zhou Rou'er got off the carriage and looked at Zhou's mother's excited, close, somewhat doubtful and expectant eyes. Her whole body was shaken, and she called softly: "Mother~"

"Good daughter! It's true that the daughter of our Zhou family is back!" Zhou's mother was also shocked, and she shed a few tears. As she spoke, she took a few steps forward and held her daughter tightly in her arms.

Here, never let go!

Originally, the mother and daughter were not so excited when they met, and this was Li Xingzhi's fault. If he hadn't kept the mother and daughter from seeing each other for several years, making Zhou's mother worried about her daughter's condition, Zhou's mother would not have been so rude today.

Li Xingzhi shed tears as he watched the mother and daughter deeply in love. He couldn't help but feel a little bit more ashamed. He has really become a bad person in the past few years!

The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried, and talked for a while.

At this time, Zhou's father said with a smile: "I'm just waiting for you two. You two, mother and daughter, should talk to each other later." Looking at his daughter's appearance, Zhou's father knew that she was living a great life in the Li family, and her heart was filled with happiness. Let it go. Although he is more profit-seeking as a businessman, who is willing to sell his son and daughter if he has no other choice? Who doesn't hope that his daughter will live a better life after getting married? Of course, her daughter is in the Li family's home. With a more important position, he would have a better chance of getting close to the big tree of the Li family again, which would be of benefit to the Zhou family.

Zhou's mother was also smiling happily at this time, pulling her daughter and walking towards the gate of Zhou's house.

Li Xingzhi and his party had some lunch at Zhou's house and stayed for another hour. Soon, Li Linzhi became bored and wanted to watch a polo match. Li Xingzhi also stayed until he was so breathless that he was watched over everywhere he went, with a flattering face. Smile, here I am afraid of traveling, and there I am afraid of making mistakes. From the Zhou family to the servants of the Zhou family, everyone is careful and cares about everything. It makes a lazy and casual person like Li Xingzhi feel a bit restrained, let alone The restless Li Linzhi became very excited.

The two of them went to watch the football match, but Zhou Rouer stayed behind.

After Li Xing left, everyone in the Zhou family breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone gathered around Zhou Rou'er and asked him to talk about what the life of the Li family was like. After all, although they are all merchant families, the Zhou family's attitude towards the Li family Still curious about the sudden rise, limited.

But hearing Zhou Rouer say that most of the things that the Li family eats and uses are unseen and unheard of, such as soft paper for toilets, goose down blankets for sleeping, not to mention other food, which makes the Zhou family grow up one by one. I'm speechless and don't know what to say.

The more Father Zhou listened, the more curious he became. The things he could hear, even the life of the dignitaries in Chang'an City, were far behind. After so many years of crawling and rolling, Father Zhou had seen a lot of great things in the world. But for Li I was also very curious about the things at home and wanted to see if they were really what my daughter said.

Zhou Rouer said to herself, completely unaware of the fright, curiosity and envy of everyone in the Zhou family.

At this time, a little baby suddenly ran in, pointed at the large boxes of things that the Li family had moved, and said angrily: "Xiangxiang! The queen wants to eat Xiangxiang."

Everyone heard clearly what Wa'er meant, that he was telling his mother that he wanted her to give him something delicious.

Everyone in the Zhou family heard this. Their noses twitched a few times and they smelled carefully. Just then they smelled a thin, silky, fresh fruity fragrance wafting out from a large box, and their minds were attracted to it.

Everyone looked at Father Zhou, as if asking what he meant.

"If you want to eat it, then eat it! I also want to see what those fruits from the Li family look like."

When everyone opened the box, a scent of mixed fruity flavors suddenly overflowed, filling everyone's hearts and minds. Everyone felt refreshed. The fluid in their mouths was like water from a mountain, and they couldn't swallow it. Everyone in the Zhou family looked at the dazzling array of transparent fruits of various colors they had seen and never seen before, and their surprises were far greater than what they had just heard from Zhou Rouer.

At this time, the little baby ran over and hugged a large watermelon weighing dozens of kilograms and refused to let go.

"Okay. Listen to me, let's eat watermelon!" Zhou's father also said with a happy smile.

Several people carried out two watermelons and brought a kitchen knife. Zhou's father was in good spirits and took the kitchen knife with one hand, preparing to break open the watermelon himself. He gestured to the big watermelon a few times, and then the kitchen knife slashed the top of the watermelon.

Go, but don't want to, the big knife has just broken the watermelon

A little bit of skin was left, and suddenly a "pop" sound was heard, and the watermelon exploded as if there was a small bomb hidden inside! The red flesh of the melon and the black and green gourds of fruit splashed out one after another, splashing on everyone's faces and heads.

!The freshness of watermelon suddenly spreads!

Father Zhou was stunned, looking at the big watermelon that burst open under his hand. For some reason, he suddenly laughed heartily. He held a piece of tattered watermelon in his hand and took a bite. He suddenly felt a chill running through his heart, making him feel very comfortable.

The little nai didn't care whether the watermelon looked good or not, he quickly pinched the flesh of the melon and put it into his mouth, causing his head, face and body to be covered with red watermelon water.

"Dad, let me do the cutting!" Zhou Rou'er walked out from the side and said.

Zhou's father looked at Zhou Rou'er holding Yingying's body as if it was about to be blown away by a gust of wind. He shook his head and said, "Just call a servant to cut it." He was even worried that his daughter could not hold the kitchen knife, and if she hurt herself, Li

I'm afraid the young man at home will be unhappy.

Everyone nearby also said in agreement: "Sister, let the servants do the cutting! Your body is so valuable now!"

At this time, Zhou Rouer took out a short sword from her arms. The hilt and scabbard were all dark and matte, and it looked extremely inconspicuous. Suddenly there was a "crack" sound, and a flash of silver light stung everyone's eyes! Everyone focused their attention.

It looked like a dagger was being drawn out of its sheath. The blade was so sharp and cold that it felt like it was about to cut through a person's flesh even from a distance.

Everyone was startled and took half a step back. Only then did they realize that the person holding the sword was just a 'weak' woman, and they couldn't help but laugh at her.

"Let me cut it! I often cut my own food at home." Zhou Rouer said softly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Rou'er stepped forward and swung the dagger. Everyone felt a dazzling silver light flash by, and heard a "crack" sound. The dagger was already sheathed!

Everyone looked at the big watermelon and saw that the watermelon's appearance had not changed. They felt strange and a little funny at the same time. They felt that the sister in front of them knew how to play tricks.

At this time, Zhou Rou'er reached out her hand and gently touched the watermelon. The entire watermelon was like a blooming flower. The buds split open and turned into petals that spread out and bloomed!

When everyone saw this, they were instantly dumbfounded, and the look in their eyes towards Zhou Rouer was even more different.

Zhou Rouer squeezed two pieces of watermelon, handed them to her parents, and invited everyone to come and eat. Only then did everyone come back to their senses.

After eating the watermelon, everyone looked at the various things brought by the Li family as if they were curious, and marveled at them until Father Zhou collected them all like treasures.

But on the other side, Li Xingzhi and Li Linzhi had arrived at the ball pavilion.

The central yang of the ball pavilion is a large field of several acres. To the north is a high platform with many tables, chairs, and fans placed on it. It is obviously a place for dignitaries to watch the game.

At this time, there were not many people on the high platform, but there was already a crowd below the stage.

Thanks to "dreammaker" for the reward and continued support! (To be continued.)
