Chapter 345 Digging the Grave

Because the fur brought by him had not taken action, Zhang Tianai originally meant that he planned to keep Lao Hu and leave half of the people for him. However, this decision was rejected by Li Mu, and the road to the west was not peaceful. It was the middle of winter again, and the time of the year was the least food. This year, the Turks were destroyed, and the tribes were severely damaged. I don’t know how many Turks would starve to death this winter.

When people are about to starve to death, they can do whatever they take. For the sake of Zhang Tianai's safety, they should bring more people to prevent accidents. As for these furs, it is very easy to deal with. Wang Ou's shop opposite the door, which is made of furs. He pulled them all over, and Wang Ou just gave cash directly. More than 10,000 stakes, which was just a drop in the bucket for her.

This means that Zhang Tianai doesn't want to do business with Wang Ou. If there was no trouble, this little fur would have been sold long ago.

When he returned home at noon, Li Mu took Dugu Jiu and Li Chongyi to clean up the studio and warehouse, and asked his servants to clean the inside and outside of the yard. He then carried the plaque "Zhulu Hou Mansion" written by Li Shimin and left the mansion that he had lived for half a year. Since he lived in Fengqiuhuang temporarily, it was not a formal move, and the shop could not be regarded as a residence after all, Li Mu did not plan to make any housewarming, and no one informed him.

After putting the things in place, Li Mu ate something casually. Seeing that the door was still two hours before the closing, he took some candied pastries and things that the children liked to eat, and asked Li Chongyi to drive a carriage to the imperial city.

Changle Gate is the east gate of the palace city, next to the east palace. If Li Mu wants to reach this place, there are two roads to walk. The first road is to enter from the main gate of the palace city, bypass the Taiji Hall, the East Palace, and reach Changle Gate. Then, enter from the East Palace, which will be much closer. But he doesn't want to provoke Li Chengqian, a naughty boy. This kid is about to get into a devilish game recently. If he sees it, he will not have to do anything, and he will pull down the military flag.

Therefore, Li Mu would rather take a little more and end up being worry-free.

As soon as Li Mu entered the palace, Li Shimin received news. He knew that Li Mu was not coming to pay a visit and was going to do something bypassing the Tai Chi Hall. He just smiled and turned his attention to the "Global Map of the Western Regions Countries" on the table.

...

The harem, in the TV series of Li Mu's previous life, was portrayed as a place of intrigue and conspiracy. In fact, it was indeed the case. Although the harem of the Tang Dynasty was not as dirty as in the Ming and Qing dynasties, there were not many intrigues behind the scenes behind the scenes.

This also includes a particularly strict hierarchy.

Everything in the harem is decided by the queen. Even the emperor cannot do whatever he wants. If a concubine offends the emperor, at most he will be sent to the Yeting Palace. However, if he offends the queen, there will be no place for her to stand in the harem. There is no need for the queen to do it. The concubines, female officials, eunuchs, palace maids, etc. under her will look at this guy who has no eyesight. Silent cold violence is the most hurtful. It won’t take long to seek death on his own. This is what is called killing people without blood.

The harem also has ranks, just like the court. The queen compares the emperor and controls everything. Under the queen, there are "Four Lady", noble, supreme, virtue, virtuous, and first-rank rank. Under the fourth Lady, there are nine concubines, Zhaoyi, Zhaorong, Zhaoyuan, Xiuyi, Xiurong, Xiuyuan, Chongyi, Chongrong, Chongyuan, and the second-rank rank. Under the nine concubines, there are Jieyu (3rd-rank rank rank), beauty (4th-rank rank), and talented people (5th-rank rank) each of which is a 27-generation wife.

These are not enough. The so-called three thousand beauties in the harem are by no means fun. Below the worldly wives, there are Baolin (the sixth rank), Yu Nu (the seventh rank), and Cai Nu (the eighth rank), and are called the eighty-one Yu Wu.

These people, including the female officials, palace maids and others who serve them, are still missing.

According to the harem system, these famous concubines all have at least one chance to sleep with the emperor. This is their power and the emperor cannot disobey it. If they are lucky enough to have a dragon seed and the children they give birth to are all princes.

However, there is a world of difference between princes and princes.

The queen's son is called the legitimate descendant. Generally speaking, only the legitimate descendant princes have the opportunity to compete for the throne. Just like Li Shimin's generation, Li Yuan's sons have dozens of sons, why are there only Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin and Li Yuanji on the stage of fighting for the throne? The other princes are so calm and don't care about the throne?

Not because they don’t have the chance. Even if they have one in ten thousand chances and steal the throne, they can’t sit steadily. Because they are concubines and are not qualified.

This is very unfair for these unqualified concubines. But this is the rule. You can either be dissatisfied or hysterical, but this result must be accepted.

The legitimate birth is superior to others, and not to mention the common birth, there is also a distinction between the noble and the humble.

For example, the children of the "Fourth Lady" are better than those of the Nine Concubines. By the same token, the treatment will never be the same. When the children of the "Imperial Wife" who are finally waiting for, not to mention being named kings, or being named marquis, it depends on the ability of the prince. In the palace, the status of the Imperial Wife is even worse than that of a female official, and it cannot be compared with a large eunuch like Eunuch Gao. Basically, unless you are particularly beautiful and you will be able to be lucky in your life, the emperor will be deeply impressed by the night when you are old and die. Otherwise, this life will be the end of the palace.

They are not as good as palace maids. When the palace maids reach the age of marriage, they can apply to leave the palace to get married. However, women who have been lucky enough to be in the palace, or they are lucky enough to have a son and a half daughter. They rely on the protection of their children to live in their children's residence in their later years. The most miserable thing is those who have no children. They have to be buried with their own children after the emperor's death, and their end is extremely miserable.

Now Li Shimin's "four ladies" are Concubine Wei, Concubine Yang Shu, Concubine Yin De, and Concubine Zheng Xian.

Among them, Yindefei is a very special existence. Her special thing is not her.

His special feature lies in his family background. Yin Defei's father was named Yin Shishi Shi. Emperor Yang was the prefect of Zhangye. He was deeply afraid of Rong Di. During the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, he was responsible for leaving behind Chang'an. During Li Yuan's attack on Chang'an, Yin Shishi killed Li Yuan's relatives, even a young brother of Li Shimin. What's even more outrageous is that he dug out all the ancestral tombs of the Li family. After the city was destroyed, Li Yuan of course had to take revenge. Not only did he kill him and his aide Gu Yi who gave him this idea, but he also implicated their three tribes. However, he did not completely do anything, leaving him with a son, Hongzhi and his sister Yin Yue'e.

Li Yuan rewarded Yin Yue'e to her second son, Li Shimin, who had the greatest contribution to this war. Later, Li Shimin ascended the throne, and she became the current Yinde Concubine.

It is no exaggeration to call the hatred between the Yin family and the Li family an irreconcilable relationship. The Yin Shishi master dug out Li Yuan’s ancestral tomb, while Li Yuan sent almost everyone in the Yin family to apologize to his ancestors.

Such a combination is very dangerous. Yin Hongzhi advised her sister countless times to kill Li Shimin while she was sleeping and avenge hundreds of people in the Yin family. But since Yin Defei was named "De", it means that she is a very gentle person. In addition, she and Li Shimin were unable to do this when they had sex with her. Later, she left her son Li You, which was even more impossible. Yin Hongzhi resented her sister because of this and would not come to the palace to visit her once a year, and the siblings were very distant.

Speaking of Yin Hongzhi, in his early years, his father was the "top leader" in the former Sui Dynasty who was responsible for guarding Chang'an City, he could be said to be the number one playboy in Chang'an, but after the whole family was implicated, his temperament changed drastically. The playboy's habits were wiped out and he became a person who was full of hatred and regarded revenge as his lifelong career.

For him, there are only two things to live, to carry on the family line and to take revenge. For this reason, he married many women, and there were dozens of people. After these women had children, he would give a sum of money and let the mother go as far as possible. Because he knew that one day, he had the opportunity to kill Li Yuan and live Li Shimin, he would undoubtedly die. The matter of implicating the three tribes back then would definitely happen again. He hid his descendants among the people, and even if some were found, there would always be a fish that missed the net, and the blood of the Yin family could continue.

The creation of man is in full swing, but the revenge is not progressing at all.

Whether it is Li Yuan or Li Shimin, he never took him seriously. He was left behind for humiliation. When the humiliation passed, he was forgotten. For a king, the life, life or death of an ant was indifferent.

revenge?

Too ridiculous!

As he grew older, Yin Hongzhi gradually understood this feeling of powerlessness. But he did not give up and was buried in his heart. Later, one year during the Chinese New Year, Yin Hongzhi routinely entered the palace to pay his respects to his sister and saw his five-year-old nephew Li You.

A bold idea came to his mind.

Since I have no hope of revenge in this life, I will change my method. Li Shimin, you have committed your father's rebellion and become the emperor. I will also let you taste this kind of taste.

From that day on, Yin Hongzhi changed his confrontation with his sister. The number of times he entered the palace increased. With his compliment, he quickly won the favor of his nephew Li You. At the beginning of the year, Li You turned ten years old. Li Shimin, as usual, asked Li You to open a palace outside the palace, and changed him from King Chu to King Yan and became the governor of Youzhou. Yin Hongzhi recommended himself and became the chief of the palace.

Concubine Yin De’s original intention was that having this younger brother disciplined her son was better than outsiders. Moreover, Yin Hongzhi has been disguised so well in recent years that she thought that this younger brother had forgotten to take revenge.
