Chapter 206 Lingnan Secret Report

"Mother, look, is my lantern beautiful?" Princess Changle Li Lizhi ran to Empress Changsun holding a lotus lantern.

Tonight is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. The whole family will watch the people of the city stroll around Chang'an at night from the highest point of the imperial palace.

The city of Chang'an was bustling with people, and the sky was full of fireworks all night long. The scene was spectacular and magnificent.

It is the happiest day of the year for children.

"It looks good! Changle made it herself?" Empress Changsun smiled. The lantern was a little clumsily made, but the coloring was very good.

"Well, mother noticed it?" Changle rarely showed the cuteness of a little girl.

"Such beautiful coloring is only available in our Changle. No one else can make it." Empress Changsun spoke softly with a loving look in her eyes.

Princess Yuzhang followed behind, holding a peony flower lamp, "Mother, this is mine! My sister made it for me!"

"Beautiful! They all look beautiful!" Empress Changsun looked at them carefully.

Empress Changsun was very patient with every child and never treated them perfunctorily. No matter how busy she was, she would stop what she was doing and listen to the children's voices.

The Lizheng Hall was brightly lit with candles and as warm as spring. A nine-month-old chick was learning to crawl on the ground, sticking its butt out and trying hard to move forward, like a fleshy worm.

"Chi Nu, come here to your brother!" Li Chengqian was dressed in casual clothes and no longer aloof. He squatted on the ground to tease his younger brother.

"Ahhh!" The ninth prince greeted his brother and crawled forward happily, waving his chubby little hands.

The cricket pupa was still in the same place for a long time, and the tired little guy sighed, "Alas!"

"Oh, mother, Zhinu can talk now!" Li Chengqian said happily.

Empress Changsun smiled, walked over and picked up the little worm, "Slave Chi is tired."

"Ah!" The ninth prince pointed at the thermos on the table, indicating that he wanted to drink water.

Helan Rongrong poured a bowl of warm water and handed it over. Before Empress Changsun could hold it steadily, the Ninth Prince's fat little hands grabbed the bowl and pulled it towards his mouth.

He gulped down the drink and drank it all in one breath, then sighed again, "Ah!"

"Look, mother, Zhinu is talking again!" Li Chengqian was like a curious baby, and the little baby was so playful.

"Haha, Zhinu, your brother said you can talk, so call me 'Amu'!" Empress Changsun teased.

"Ah...Hum!" The ninth prince really shouted, and then looked at his mother with a smile.

"Oh my God, your Majesty, the little prince can really speak!" Helan Rongrong said in surprise.

The little worm heard Helan Rongrong praising him, and he kicked his fat legs with joy and waved his fat hands, "Ahhh!"

"Hey, Zhinu can really talk now!" Empress Zhangsun was also very surprised. "Even Gao Ming couldn't speak so early! Zhinu, call me 'Amu' again!"

"Ahm!" The Ninth Prince spoke without hesitation, this time much more smoothly, and then grinned foolishly.

"Mother, how old am I to speak?" Li Chengqian's eyes sparkled, revealing the innocence of a child.

"You started talking late. You didn't start talking until you were almost one year old!" Empress Changsun did not think her eldest son was childish. Instead, she felt more distressed.

At such an innocent age, when he became the crown prince, he had to put away his innocence and pretend to be calm and sensible.

"Mom, what about me?" Changle also wanted to know what she looked like when she was a child.

"Changle is similar to Zhinu, and he starts talking early! And our little darling, Yuzhang, is also amazing!" Changsun did not forget every child present.

After hearing this, Yuzhang smiled with curved eyebrows.

Children like to listen to their parents tell stories about their childhood, even if they are embarrassing ones, they still listen with gusto.

"What are you talking about? It's so lively!" Tian Khan came in leading Qingque.

The originally casual Li Chengqian immediately stood up straight and turned back into the boring little adult.

"Yeah, Zhinu can talk now!" Yuzhang said in a baby voice.

"Oh, really? Zhinu, call me Aye!" Tian Khan stretched out his hand to tease the ninth prince.

The little worm grabbed his father's fingers and said, "Ah, Ah!"

"Hahaha!" The Ninth Prince's chuckled appearance made Tian Khan laugh heartily, and he picked him up and held him high.

"Hehehe!" The ninth prince was nervous and excited, and kept giggling.

"Okay, if you keep teasing her, Chi Nu will make a fuss in her sleep again tonight." Empress Changsun persuaded her husband.

"Let's go and see the night view of Chang'an and the lantern festival!" Tian Khan held his youngest son and took his wife's hand and went out.

The family is happy and harmonious, just like an ordinary family.

The palace is decorated with lights and lanterns. No matter how frugal one is, lanterns should still be hung during the New Year. Reusing them is not a waste.

Standing at the highest point of the imperial city, Chang'an City is crowded with people, and more than a dozen main roads are hung with lanterns, a magnificent scene on earth.

You can vaguely hear the noisy hawking sounds and the floating stars, which are the lanterns being carried.

The children looked envious, as they hadn't been shopping for a long time.

When they were at the Prince of Qin's Mansion, the children could occasionally sneak out to go shopping and buy snacks.

After the Xuanwu Gate Incident, I could only wander around in the palace, and most of the time I lived in the East Palace. I missed those free days so much.

"Father, let's go out for a walk!" Qingque pulled his father and begged.

"You can't do that now, you are too young. When you grow up and become kings and set up your own palaces, you can go around whenever you want!" Tian Khan moved his four sons.

This child is not afraid of me and likes to act coquettishly with me, so I unconsciously feel more fond of him.

"Father, Qingque is already the King of Wei. Tomorrow he will open his palace, so Qingque can go shopping and buy lots of delicious food for Father! Okay! Okay!"

Qingque pulled at her father's robe and refused to let go, causing Tian Khan's robe to become wrinkled.

"Hahaha, look, you are really just a child, just thinking about food!" Tian Khan laughed.

"Is it okay, Aye?" Qingque rubbed against his father.

"Amu, Amu!" Zhinu kept muttering to himself, and shouted happily when he saw his brother pestering his father.

"Father, Father, I also want to be crowned a king and have my own mansion. Yeah, Yuzhang will also go shopping and buy a lot of delicious food for you!" Yuzhang also wanted to go shopping, but was led astray and asked his father for the title of king.

"Silly child, you are a princess!" Empress Changsun squatted down and touched the child's head lovingly.

"Mom, I want to go shopping and buy some delicious food!" Yuzhang threw herself into her arms, hugged her mother's neck and acted coquettishly.

"Your Majesty!" The personal eunuch bowed and said in a low voice.

"What's the matter?" asked Tian Khan.

"Secret report from Lingnan!" replied the eunuch.

"Oh!" Tian Khan showed joy when he heard this. Another new achievement?

"I'll go to the study, you take the children to play." Tian Khan handed Zhinu to the queen and walked briskly back to the Chongwen Hall of the East Palace.

In the past six months, Lingnan Road has been full of surprises one after another, and Tian Khan is full of hope for Lingnan Road.

The secret report was urgently delivered by Wei Shutong and Li Zhongyan.

Tian Khan opened the secret report anxiously and read it at a glance. His expression became solemn as he read on.

"Bang! How dare you!" Tian Khan slapped the desk with his palm, scaring the eunuch outside the door.

"Someone come here!" Tian Khan shouted.

"Your Majesty!" The eunuch came in cautiously, bowing.

"Urgently summon Lord Fang and Lord Du to the palace!" Tian Khan walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, his whole body filled with a cold aura.

Good, very good! These people couldn't hold back and took action first! They really are preparing for a rainy day!

Do they really think that they can control the Tang Dynasty at will?
