Chapter 694 Yang Fei

A few days later, King Gaochang set out to leave Chang'an. The request to introduce cotton seeds from Gaochang was also rejected. This made Li Xiu very angry and even wanted to detain King Gaochang directly and ask Gaochang to exchange the seeds. However, if he did this, it would have a great impact on the political situation of the Tang Dynasty. Not to mention that Li Shimin would not agree, even if Li Shimin agreed, I am afraid that the civil and military officials in the court would not agree.

However, although King Gaochang did not agree, it was not impossible to introduce cotton seeds. In fact, it was not only Gaochang who planted cotton in the Western Regions. Even if it was only Gaochang, the Tang Dynasty had a way to smuggle some seeds from Gaochang. After all, Gaochang's land was not small, and the cotton planting area was large, so Gaochang could not prevent seed loss at all.

The introduction of cotton seeds from the Western Regions was handed over to Ma Ye’s Feinusi by Li Shimin. They were the most suitable for doing this. In addition, Li Xiu also heard from Ma Ye that with the destruction of Jie Li, Feinusi also began to turn his attention to the Western Turks in the Western Regions. Although the Western Turks were still in civil turmoil and were unlikely to send troops to attack the Tang Dynasty, they had to be wary of it.

On the day when King Gaochang left, Li Xiu also heard an interesting thing, that is, Li Shimin did not set up a farewell banquet for King Gaochang, which made King Gaochang very angry and left Chang'an with a angrily convoy. It seemed that from then on, the relationship between Gaochang and the Tang Dynasty would definitely become less friendly, but if Gaochang was really as dying as in history, it would probably be in a few years that would lead to the destruction of the country.

Early that morning, Li Xiu personally sent Princess Pingyang out. She discussed with Princess Guanghua that she would visit Princess Tong'an today, and then visit Li Yuan with Princess. Speaking of which, Li Yuan was too pitiful. She usually stayed alone in Da'an Palace, so Princess Pingyang often brought people to visit him, and said that Princess Tong'an was the sister of Li Yuan's mother and compatriots. The two had a deep relationship, and Li Yuan was willing to say some common words to his sister.

After seeing off Princess Pingyang, Li Xiu went to play with her baby daughter for a long time. Yue Chan and Yi Niang worked as a female worker while discussing the family business. Especially Yue Chan also touched her slightly raised belly from time to time, and looked up at Li Xiu who was teasing her. Her eyebrows were full of happiness, because a small life was also nurturing in her body, which was also the crystallization of her relationship with Li Xiu.

Of course, Li Xiu was happy when Yue Chan was pregnant, but Princess Pingyang couldn't explain it. After all, before taking Yue Chan as her concubine, Princess Pingyang wanted to have another child, but she didn't expect that even Yue Chan was pregnant now, and her belly had no reaction, which made her secretly complain about Li Xiu. Li Xiu was also amused and crying. He was not able to control such a child, but for women, sometimes the truth was not understandable.

It was almost dark in the afternoon that Princess Pingyang came back in the carriage. However, seeing her happy look, Li Xiu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although she didn't know what happened to Princess Pingyang so happy, as long as she was in a good mood, she would not cause trouble for herself.

After dinner, Li Xiu and Princess Pingyang returned to the bedroom. Now Yue Chan is pregnant, and the lady in the air has to accompany Le'an at night. And they all know that Princess Pingyang is eager to want a child, so they deliberately asked Li Xiu to accompany Princess Pingyang at night. However, as soon as they entered the bedroom today, Princess Pingyang excitedly took out a piece of paper from her arms and smiled: "Guess what this is, Husband?"

"What?" Li Xiu asked with a smile when he saw Princess Pingyang so happy.

"Secret recipe!" Princess Pingyang smiled proudly, then opened the paper in her hand and looked at it with Li Xiu. When she saw the content on the paper, Li Xiu couldn't help but frowned, because the words on it were all about some medicines and methods of taking, which was obviously a prescription.

"This... isn't a prescription that helps with childbirth?" Li Xiu couldn't help but smile bitterly. Princess Pingyang wanted to have another child, but she couldn't get pregnant. She was very anxious because of this. She even asked Sun Simiao to diagnose them. However, Sun Simiao said that the two of them were very healthy and there was no problem at all, otherwise there would be no Li Jin. However, even so, Princess Pingyang still asked Sun Simiao to prescribe some prescriptions, hoping to get pregnant early, so Li Xiu is not unfamiliar with this kind of prescription for assisting pregnancy.

"This is different. This prescription is a secret in the palace. It is said to be very effective. We can try it tomorrow!" Princess Pingyang said very seriously at this time.

"It depends on luck to get pregnant. Don't take these prescriptions randomly. After all, it's three parts poisonous. If the body is damaged, it will be bad. What's more, we are still young and have time to have a baby in the future." Li Xiu smiled bitterly and advised that even the prescriptions prescribed by Sun Simiao were useless before, so Li Xiu didn't believe much about this kind of prescription that assisted pregnancy.

"I'm not young yet. I'm already thirty now. If I put it in someone else's house, I can be my grandmother!" Princess Pingyang said with a sad expression when she heard Li Xiu's words. Li Xiu was shocked when she heard this. Then she suddenly remembered that it was already six years of Zhenguan, and it was almost ten years since she traveled to the Tang Dynasty, and she was already twenty-six years old. Princess Pingyang was a few years older than her, and she was indeed thirty years old this year.

"How can you be thirty? Madam, you don't believe in looking in the mirror. If someone who doesn't know you see you for the first time, you will probably think you are only sixteen or seventeen years old!" Li Xiu quickly reacted and hurriedly stretched out his arm to hold Princess Pingyang in his arms and said, "It's not to make Princess Pingyang happy. In fact, Princess Pingyang is born with beauty, and has a deep relationship with Li Xiu, and her life is very sweet, which makes her not look old at all. Although Yi Niang and Yue Chan are younger than her, they can't tell the age of the three of them when they stand together.

"I will make me happy, but even if I don't look old, I can't make a fake age. It's much more difficult for women to have children after the age of 30, so I want to rush to have another child soon. I like it both men and women!" Princess Pingyang's face became even more dull when she spoke at the end.

Li Xiu couldn't help feeling a little sad when he heard this, and immediately hugged her tighter. After a while, he laughed softly: "Since we want children, it's better to work harder tonight, but you have to cooperate well!"

Although they are already old husbands and wives, Princess Pingyang's shameful face turned red as soon as Li Xiu said. However, she immediately broke free from Li Xiu's arms and said seriously: "No, this prescription should not be a sex before persuading the medicine. There are a few medicines in our house. We should wait until tomorrow to find all the medicine and then take the medicine before talking about it!"

Li Xiu was already ready, but he was suddenly blown by Princess Pingyang's words and was as deflated as a ball. It seems that if Princess Pingyang is not pregnant, I am afraid that the family will not be able to feel peace.

"By the way, where did this prescription come from? Today you went to the palace to visit the Supreme Emperor? You weren't this prescription you asked for from the Supreme Emperor, right?" Li Xiu suddenly thought of the origin of the prescription and asked with wide eyes.

"How is that possible? I'm embarrassed to tell my father this, but the origin of this prescription is not simple. Why don't you guess it, husband!" Princess Pingyang suddenly smiled mysteriously at this time. The couple had a deep relationship and often made some jokes in private. Princess Pingyang sometimes even acted like a petite person, and the relationship was no worse than the time when they first got married.

"Since it comes from the palace, it must be related to the concubines in the palace. Could it be that you saw Empress Changsun and then gave it to you?" Li Xiu thought for a moment and immediately spoke. Although Princess Pingyang broke up with Li Shimin, she was still good to Empress Changsun, and occasionally she would chat with the other party when she entered the palace.

"Hehe~ Although my husband didn't guess correctly, he was already very close. Today I originally wanted to go and see this girl Lizhi, but I didn't expect that we could meet someone, and we were also the best friend of the general and the prescription was also given to me." Princess Pingyang smiled again at this time. The so-called general and the relationship refers to a friend I met in childhood. With Princess Pingyang's background, the other party must have been a nobleman from the former Sui Dynasty.

"The friendship between the general horns? That's strange. Who is the other party?" Li Xiu asked in surprise when he heard this.

"Haha, this person is still He'er's sister. When she saw me, she asked me to bring a lot of gifts to He'er. Couple Guanghua also said that she would go to the palace to visit her in the palace for a few years." Princess Pingyang reminded again.

"Hen'er's sister, are you talking about Concubine Yang?" Li Xiu immediately said in surprise. Concubine Yang was Yang Guang's daughter. Among Yang Guang's remaining children, Concubine Yang is the most famous because she is one of Li Shimin's four noble concubines, second only to Empress Changsun, and also Li Ke's mother.

"Yes, it's her. During the former Sui Dynasty, our brothers and sisters often entered the palace and met the princes and princesses of the former Sui Dynasty. Concubine Yang was not prominent among the princesses at the time, but she was gentle in character and was not as arrogant as other princes and princesses. She was able to chat with us, but she didn't expect her to end..."

Princess Pingyang suddenly stopped at the end, and a look of sadness appeared on her face, because she thought that Li Shimin and Yang had a good relationship. If her father had not been suspicious of Yang Guang, Yang might have been able to marry Li Shimin. At that time, she would probably not have the share of Changsun. But who would have thought that luck would have been a mess? However, God was not bad to Yang Concubine, and eventually married Li Shimin and gave birth to two sons. Just when she thought of Li Shimin, Princess Pingyang immediately thought of her elder brother Li Jiancheng, and her mood immediately became a little sad.
