On the Tai Chi Hall.

Li Si looked down at the princes kneeling in front of the emperor.

"No gift!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

King Liang stood up respectfully, dared not look around, and dared not look up at the emperor's suangyan.

Even if he is a prince of the Tang Dynasty, if he is ruthless in this court, he will inevitably be impeached by his ministers.

Li Si sat on the dragon throne, looked at King Liang, and said, "King Liang, you are in charge of disaster relief. Now Shu has been calmed down. What do you want me to reward you?"

King Liang said respectfully: "Disa relief is a matter of meritorious officials. I only want to share your worries with Your Majesty and dare not ask for rewards."

"Don't say these beautiful words to me!" Li Si waved his hand: "I still understand the truth when rewarding merits and punishing me."

"Say, what do you want?"

Li Si looked at King Liang and said.

When King Liang heard this, hesitated: "Report to Your Majesty, I adopted a baby girl on my way to Shu. I promised the baby girl's mother to take good care of the baby girl."

Li Si frowned and asked, "How is the baby girl's mother now?"

"Report to Your Majesty, the disaster has eased slightly. I have gone back and found that the baby girl's mother has long been starved to death."

Li Si didn't say anything.

The drought in Shu was a century-long drought, and the eunuch Li Jingzhong deceived his superiors and concealed his subordinates, which led to the court's inaction for a month.

During this period

I don’t know how many people starved to death.

Even if Li Si tried his best to make up for it afterwards, the dead people would not survive.

"Therefore, I want to ask Your Majesty for the baby girl."

"There are countless powerful people in Chang'an City. The weak ministers are worried that the baby girl will be bullied in the future." King Liang said with a bow.

Li Si pondered for a moment and said, "That is what King Liang asked for, I should allow it."

"Come!"

"I passed on my oral instructions to grant the baby girl Li's surname, titled Princess Nanyang, and enjoy the treatment of the Li family."

As soon as Li Si finished speaking, King Liang's face changed slightly.

He never expected that the emperor would actually award the title of princess to the baby girl.

"Abide by the order." The eunuch in the near-servant said respectfully.

The civil and military officials naturally had no objection. The emperor treated the descendants of refugees in Shu well, and it was a good story to spread it.

"I thank you for your Majesty for the baby girl!" King Liang said hurriedly.

Li Si smiled and continued, "King Liang Li Zhen made contributions to disaster relief, and rewarded 1,000 taels of gold, King Xu, King Bi, and King Huo rewarded 500 taels of gold."

When King Liang and others heard this, they immediately knelt down and saluted: "Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness!"

"If there is nothing to do, go home and rest!"

Li Si said softly.

"Then the empress will go back." King Liang said immediately.

King Liang and others left Tai Chi Hall until they arrived outside the palace. King Liang suddenly stopped and turned to look at the palace.

This time when he entered the palace, although the emperor agreed to his request and rewarded a thousand taels of gold, none of these were what King Liang wanted.

What King Liang really longed for was to fight like an ordinary general and expand territory for the Tang Dynasty, rather than being trapped in this Chang'an city.

Unfortunately, as a king of the Tang Dynasty, the future of King Liang has been determined to be firmly determined since its birth.

But the appearance of the emperor gave King Liang hope.

All signs show that Your Majesty is not as lawful as the late emperors of all dynasties and abide by the ancestral teachings.

As long as the emperor wants, King Liang can realize the great ambition in his heart.

However, this time when the emperor entered the palace, he did not mention this matter.

Outside the palace, King Liang felt a little disappointed.

However, in just a short moment, King Liang cheered up again.

King Liang believed that as long as he showed enough value and loyalty, sooner or later, the emperor would be able to delegate power to him.

Thinking of this, King Liang immediately turned around and left with great strides.

Tai Chi Hall.

The emperor announced his resignation.

The civil and military officials followed the two sides of the imperial road and left the Tai Chi Hall.

Li Si returns to the Hall of Eternal Life.

The disaster in Shu was resolved, and Li Si was in a good mood. He changed into a regular dress and prepared to go to the Imperial Garden to take a walk.

Since Li Si ascended the throne, he has been busy with government affairs and has never been to the Imperial Garden.

"You all retreat."

Li Si cleared away and followed his maid and eunuch, and came to the Imperial Garden alone.

In the imperial garden.

It contains all the famous flowers in the world.

Li Si walked slowly, walking in the imperial garden, enjoying this moment of tranquility.

As an emperor, although he has the greatest power in the world, he also bears the heaviest responsibilities in the world.

Just as Li Si was thinking, a figure suddenly crashed into Li Si's arms.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Mu Mu didn't mean it."

A girl with bright eyes staggered to the ground, but hurriedly got up and apologized timidly.

Li Si looked at the girl and said casually: "Are you okay?"

The girl quickly shook her head: "Mu Mu is fine, it's Mu Mu who bumped into you."

Li Si looked at the girl: "Your name is Mu Mu?"

The girl blinked her big eyes, as if she felt that Li Si was different from others, and plucked up the courage and said, "My name is Mu Mu, I specialize in taking care of the flowers in this place."

It turns out he is a gardener in the Royal Garden

Li Si suddenly realized.

The Imperial Garden is a royal garden, and only the emperor and concubines have the right to enter.

Now that the emperor has not yet accepted a concubine, it is even more impossible for anyone to come in.

But if the girl is a gardener, that makes sense.

After all, these flowers in the Imperial Garden are all precious varieties, very delicate and need to be taken care of by others at all times.

After Mu Mu introduced himself, he suddenly thought of something and looked at Li Si and said stutteringly: "It is forbidden to enter this place, you can go out quickly."

"No random entry?" Li Si said without comment: "Who did you hear?"

Mu Mu tilted his head and thought for a while: "Many people have said that the sisters in the palace and the very fierce father-in-law, they all told Mu Mu that no one can come in this place."

"They are lying to you!" Li Si said casually.

"Lie to me?" Mu Mu wondered: "Why do they want to deceive Mu Mu?"

"They want you to concentrate on taking care of these flowers." Li Si found a reason casually.

"That's how it's done"

Mu Mu seems to understand but not understand.

"Tell me, are there any particularly interesting flowers in this place?" Li Si asked.

"Interesting flowers?" Mu Mu's eyes were bright, and he grabbed Li Si's arm and pulled Li Si to the depths of the imperial garden: "There are many, I'll take you over and see now."

In the imperial garden, the emperor was pulled by a girl and trotted all the way.

"There is a kind of flower that is particularly beautiful. It only blooms for one hour in its life and then begins to wither. However, within one hour of its blooming, no other flower can compete with it."

"Calculate the time, it should be opened after a while. Mu Mu will take you to wait now."

"Mu Mu promises you that as long as you see that kind of flower, you will definitely like it!"

"Mu Mu has also been looking forward to it for a long time."
