My harem can't be this messy

The white fox jumped out of Li Wan's arms, ran into the night, and disappeared in Chuxiu Palace.

Li Wan looked up at the moon again, and then at the direction of Wanchun Palace.

"Since I entered the palace and followed His Majesty, I should do something for His Majesty."

Li Wan turned her head and looked in the direction of Chuxiu Palace, all the women living there were already fast asleep.

At this time, the distant bell in Chang'an City rang, midnight.

Li Wan's figure floated past Chuxiu Palace, like smoke and shadow, ethereal, and kept falling in the sealed courtyard of Wanchun Palace.

It has been several days since no one came here, and the fallen leaves in the courtyard have piled up a lot, but a pear tree in the courtyard has grown stronger and stronger.

Li Wan walked under the pear tree and patted the pear tree with her hands. Three meters away from the pear tree, directly south, Li Wan stood there.

Chapter 631 Fire

A cat meowed eagerly in the courtyard, and Li Wan saw a white cat staring fiercely at her beside the pear tree.

"Little guy, I have practiced here for a hundred years, but I have not succeeded in other things, but I have cultivated a whole body of courage."

As Li Wan said, a foxy face was slightly revealed on her face. The fox's eyes looked at the white cat, staring slightly, narrowing her eyes, and there seemed to be a smile on the fox's face.

The white cat frowned instantly, and then ran to the side.Li Wan didn't pay attention, just stomped her feet in the position where she was standing, and saw that the ground here cracked rapidly, and the huge cracks were enough to put a human hand in. These cracks extended in the courtyard and extended to the road. Even the first-class stone slabs laid here in Wanchun Hall are torn apart.

Under Li Wan's feet, countless gravel and earth rose up, following Li Wan's body into the air.

Among the gravel and soil was the corpse of a white cat. It was unknown how long the cat had been dead, but the body had not shown any signs of decay.

Li Wan stretched out her hand, and the white cat's corpse was an inch above Li Wan's palm.

At this time, the rising earth and rocks in the earth have landed one after another, forming a mound on the ground.

The white cat in the distance was meowing fiercely, staring at Li Wan who was here, but she didn't dare to approach, and could only meow one after another.

The meowing of Wanchun Palace was particularly loud tonight, and could be heard in several nearby palaces.

At this moment, cat meowing could be heard even here in Ganlu Hall.

Li Zhi was trying to get Dugu Xiaoluo to kiss him, when the meowing broke everything.

The maids in the palace were already trembling with fright, but Li Zhi put on his clothes and walked out of Ganlu Hall directly, about to rush to Wanchun Hall.

And at this moment, Wang Yan pulled Li Zhi back.

"Your Majesty, you can't go there. It's dangerous there. Your Majesty must consider your own safety."

"I want to see what that Xie Chong is up to tonight."

Li Zhi has been bullied by this white cat several times, and has hated it for a long time. At this time, the cat is meowing so fiercely, how can Li Zhi resist the urge not to look at it.

Wang Yan couldn't hold back Li Zhi, so she could only follow Li Zhi. Although she was afraid in her heart, she was even more afraid that anything would happen to Li Zhi.

Dugu Xiaoluo also ran out there and caught up with Li Zhi and Wang Yan.

Lizheng Gate, where Li Zhi stood, and beyond this gate, is Wanchun Hall. Li Zhi used to go here often, opposite to the palace where he used to live, and here is the palace where his mother lived.

The seal on the Lizheng Gate is still vivid at this time, Li Zhi tore off the seal, at this time Lin Wanyue, Princess Chao and Zheng Guanyin couldn't stop anymore, the three of them and the queen all held back Li Zhi, afraid Li Zhi made a fool of himself and rushed into Wanchun Hall.

"Zhi'er, you can't go in there now, no one knows what's going on inside, you are the king of a country now, you can't take risks easily."

"If you want to go in, you should also think about the queen mother, the queen, and Zhonger."

Li Zhi's footsteps hesitated for a moment, and at this moment the meowing in the opposite courtyard became more intense, one after another, like a constantly raging tide.

The cat meowed so eagerly that the maids at the Lizheng Palace were terrified, and the Empress Dowager and the others also looked worried.

If Li Zhi hadn't insisted on coming to Lizhengmen, these people would never have stood here.

Suddenly the meow became more intense, and even the meow was a bit heart-piercing and miserable.

"Your Majesty, look quickly, there is fire in the Wanchun Palace."

Suddenly a maid from the back yelled, and everyone looked towards the Wanchun Palace. In the middle courtyard of the Wanchun Palace, it was not like there was a flame rising into the sky at this moment.

"What's going on, why is there a fire in Wanchun Palace!"

Lin Wanyue and the others were astonished. Logically, there shouldn't be a big fire there. There was nothing to burn there, just a pear tree surrounded by turf.

At this time, Li Zhi had already pushed open the Lizheng Gate in spite of everything, and the few women couldn't hold back Li Zhi at all.

Li Zhengmen opened, and Li Zhi and the people around him were dumbfounded, as were the many palace ladies behind.

There, in the atrium, the entire pear tree was surrounded by raging fire. The entire pear tree was burning, and the pears on it fell one after another in the flames, and the leaves and branches were twisted and deformed in the flames.

Several people came to the atrium, the flames reflected on the faces of the people around them, and the maids behind also came over one after another. Dozens of people in the atrium of Wanchun Palace watched the burning flames, and watched the whole pear tree being engulfed by the flames.

Li Zhi saw the pear tree fall in the flames with his own eyes, and it was torn apart.

Under the ground, it seems that the roots of the trees are also burning, and the underground flames can be seen from the cracks in the ground, as if they came from hell.

"Your Majesty, what is this?"

Suddenly a court lady screamed, and Li Zhi was already looking at her, in the direction she was pointing.

Right there, the body of an unknown animal had been burned into a mass of coke. Li Zhi touched it with something, and the black mass instantly shattered and turned into ashes.

"what is this?"

Lin Wanyue was also amazed, quietly watching the clump of ashes floating around, and the people around avoided the ashes.

The pear tree burned for half an hour before the fire on the ground and underground was barely burnt out.

The next day when Li Zhi ordered people to dig here in Wanchun Palace, he realized that all the roots of the pear tree had been burned to ashes.

The fire was so evil that the maids who had seen the fire were discussing in secret.

It wasn't until His Majesty and the Empress Dowager issued decrees that the harem would not be allowed to discuss the matter at will, and the discussion in the palace stopped.

On the third day, Li Zhi did not let the officials leave after retiring from the court, but brought them to Wanchun Hall.

At this time, a large hole had been dug in the courtyard here, and the root system of the pear tree was basically dug out.

At this time, the extent of the destruction of the courtyard of the Wanchun Palace was a bit shocking.

"My lords, do you have anything to say?"

"What do you mean, Your Majesty?"

"I have already said that the Daming Palace will be rebuilt. This unknown fire has caused chaos in the palace. The palace can't stand any more such things."

"Your Majesty, what is going on with this matter has not yet been clarified. I am afraid that it is still a bit inappropriate for Your Majesty to mention the matter of rebuilding the Daming Palace."

"That's right, Your Majesty, rebuilding the Daming Palace is not a small matter. It is a waste of time and money to build a large building!"

"Those adults, do you know any strange people and strangers who brought them to the palace to explain my doubts. As long as they can explain how the fire started and how it burned underground, I will no longer mention the matter of rebuilding Daming Palace."

On that day, Chang'an and all the strange people with names around them were called to the mansions of the ministers. On the second day, the Wanchun Hall was even more lively, almost full of people.

Chapter 632

All kinds of costumes, strange people who are said to have all kinds of skills gathered here one after another, and even the princesses of the princess courtyard were alarmed. At this time, they followed the emperor to watch the excitement here.

A lot of concubines from the harem also came, some from a distance, some from a closer look.They came to watch the excitement, but Li Zhi's eyes were more on them.

There are also a few strange people who are well-known in history, such as Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng.

But after watching it a few times at the scene, these people couldn't tell the reason. Most of them said it was a fire, and Li Zhi just wanted to say that it's your sister.Look, in fact, most of the strange people are just ostentatious.Those who are really capable, in fact, most of them will not open their mouths at the beginning.

As for saying that this is ground fire, it is even more impossible.

And there Yuan Tiangang just shook his head with a wry smile, looking at the eldest grandson Wuji who brought him here.

"Lord Taiwei, His Majesty wants to rebuild the Daming Palace, so there is a reason for rebuilding."

Hearing what Yuan Tiangang said, the strangers around wanted to talk, but they also shut up at this moment.

Li Chunfeng on the side looked at Yuan Tiangang, and just nodded. These two are already the most famous two strange people here.Not to mention the early Tang Dynasty, even in the 5000-year history of China, there are not many people who are more famous than these two.

Since they said so, the group of people around them naturally said what they wanted.

Today is also strange. Li Zhi tried his best to persuade all the ministers that he wanted to rebuild the Daming Palace, but these people refused to live or die. In the end, these people only said that His Majesty has His Majesty's reason for rebuilding the Daming Palace. It's settled.

The general supervisor has already started preparations at this time, because the project is huge, and the Ministry of Industry will also participate in it. The Ministry of Civil Affairs has already begun preparations for allocating money and food, and is preparing to recruit strong men to build palaces in various places.

At this time, the quarrying and the woodwork have been taken care of, and the work is just waiting to start.

Naturally, Li Zhi didn't care too much about these things, and each was busy with his own affairs.Li Zhi only mentioned one thing, don't squeeze people's power too much.

As for how excessive this is, it is up to the ministers to figure it out. Isn't it a compulsory course for all the ministers to figure out His Majesty's will.

In the early Tang Dynasty, everything the royal family did was always based on caring for the power of the people. His Majesty made a special mention at this time. Naturally, no one dared to touch this bad luck.

The Daming Palace was being rebuilt, and one of Li Zhi's concerns was relieved at this time.

It is true that rebuilding the palace consumes a lot of money, but at this time, the Tang Dynasty can still afford it. After all, the external troubles are basically calmed down, and the internal troubles have not yet reached the time when the royal family needs to go to war.After more than ten years of development in Zhenguan, the national treasury has been full, and the savings are quite substantial.

The key point is that most of the palace has been repaired before. In fact, the later it is delayed, the more it will be rebuilt, and the greater the consumption.

Li Zhi was tasting this year's new peach at this time, and Wang Yan had kept Xiaoluo in the Ganlu Palace for the past few days, but seeing her, Li Zhi no longer felt so weird.

Although this girl is small, the young Li Zhi didn't even have the heart to do it. Now, he basically just pulled her arm.

But this girl is very sensible and obedient.Coupled with the fact that he was born in a Xianbei noble family, he could have a relationship with the eldest grandson's family innately, so at the mother's place, he was also very favored by the mother.

Since both the queen mother and queen liked her, Li Zhi had no intention of sending her to Chuxiu Palace any longer.

At this time, Li Zhi was eating new peaches, and this girl was also feeding them. Li Zhi was not used to it, but there were only two women here, and this girl Wang Yan was still eating her own.

"Okay, Xiaoluo, you can eat one too, try something new."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"By the way, Your Majesty, how do you plan to arrange Xiaoluo?"

"I haven't considered it yet, let Xiao Luo stay here in Ganlu Hall first, or go to the Lizheng Hall to accompany my mother often. I see that the mother likes Xiao Luo very much, and my son and the others can also play with Xiao Luo. .”

"Your Majesty's side is basically empty now, so there is nothing to arrange."

There Wang Yan put down the peach stone and looked at Li Zhi.

Li Zhi tapped her on the forehead and looked at Xiao Luo.

"The empress says how to arrange it, and you are in charge of the harem. If you say how to arrange it, I will arrange it."

Wang Yan didn't know what to say for a while, and it was her turn to make up her own mind, so Wang Yan was scared at once, look, after all, nothing major happened.

"Then let little Luo stay in Ganlu Palace for a while."

Li Zhi looked at his queen, and really thought that I didn't know how to deal with you.

Walking out of the Ganlu Hall, Li Zhi stretched his waist under the warm sun, Xin Ruo who was beside him smiled when he saw His Majesty, Li Zhi walked over, picked her chin, and looked at this girl.

"What laughing?"

"Your Majesty, you didn't wipe your mouth."

"You girl, come on, wipe it off for me."

If Xin took out the embroidered handkerchief, Li Zhi directly blocked it.

"I don't want you to wipe it with an embroidered handkerchief."

"Then what do you use to clean your heart?"

"Find the softest place and wipe it for me."

"Your Majesty is bad, and if you are so bad, you will have to change your clothes soon."

Although Xinruo said so, he still followed Li Zhi's wishes. How can there be anyone who does not follow His Majesty's wishes in the Ganlu Palace.

Foguang Temple, these days, Xue Ke eats vegetarian food and almost throws up. She is obviously a fox, and she is raised by Hui Jing as a rabbit every day. The only difference is that the rabbit eats grass, and Xue Ke eats steamed buns, rice, and barley porridge , eat vegetarian dishes, but also eat eggs.

Here in Huijing, let alone meat, don't even think about the smell of meat.

At this time, the white fox had eaten vegetarian food for a few days and couldn't eat anymore. He took his three cubs to the princess courtyard, grabbed a rabbit, and ran away.

The life in the palace, if there is nothing to do, passes very quickly. These days, Hengshan and Sizi are always looking for Li Zhi, and the animals they raise are always lost, and they have lost several. Li Zhi is also helpless. As for letting me personally guard the Princess Court for you.

However, the thief who stole the animals was clever enough. There were quite a few court ladies in the princess courtyard at this time, and they were stolen a few times, but they didn't find out who stole it or what it was stolen by.

Wu Meiniang was preparing to get vegetarian food for her master at the Foguang Temple, when she suddenly heard a strange noise in the corner of the kitchen, she looked there, a few white foxes stood up instantly, and then fled in all directions.

Wu Meiniang looked at the half duck on the ground and shook her head too.
