The princess arrives and the prosperous Tang Dynasty begins

After Lin Xiao gave birth to the child, she looked at the delicate little face and felt an indescribable emotion in her heart. The birth of this little life not only made her experience the joy and happiness of being a mother, but also made her deeply aware that the responsibility she shouldered was becoming heavier.

She knew that she was no longer living just for herself, but for this child and the people of the Tang Dynasty. She began to pay more attention to the affairs of the country and wanted to understand all aspects of the country. She often talked with the ministers in the court and humbly asked them for advice on how to govern the country and the people's livelihood. At first, the ministers were a little surprised by the princess' sudden attention, but gradually, they were moved by Lin Xiao's sincerity and enthusiasm and began to share their insights and experiences with her without reservation.

Lin Xiao knew that the prosperity and stability of a country could not be achieved overnight, and that it needed to be addressed from every detail. She began to pay attention to the people's food, clothing, housing and transportation, and whether they had enough to eat, warm clothes and safe living conditions. She would personally visit the people and listen to their voices and demands. Seeing those people living in poverty, her heart was filled with pity and heartache, and she secretly vowed to do something for them.

In order to improve people's lives, Lin Xiao actively promoted the development of agriculture. She encouraged farmers to adopt new planting techniques to increase food production. She also established some reward mechanisms to commend and reward farmers who made outstanding contributions to agricultural production. At the same time, she also paid attention to the prosperity of commerce. Through the formulation and implementation of a series of policies, she promoted the circulation of trade and made the economy of Datang increasingly active.

Lin Xiao also invested a lot of energy in education. She knew that education was the cornerstone of national development. Only by cultivating more talented and moral people could the country be stable and long-lasting. So she ordered the establishment of schools across the country so that more children could receive education. She also invited some well-known scholars and educators to give lectures in the palace to provide high-quality educational resources for the children of the royal family and ministers.

In terms of military affairs, Lin Xiao did not dare to relax at all. She knew that the strength of a country could not be separated from a strong military force as a guarantee. She worked with the generals to study military strategies and tactics, strengthen the training of the army and update the equipment. She focused on cultivating military talents, selecting capable and responsible generals, and making the Tang army more combat-ready.

However, Lin Xiao's measures were not smooth sailing. There were also some opposing voices in the court. Some ministers believed that as a woman, she should not be too involved in state affairs and should focus on taking care of her husband and children. Others, out of their own interests, were unwilling to see Lin Xiao's reforms and measures bear fruit. Faced with these oppositions and doubts, Lin Xiao did not back down, but firmly walked her own way. She believed that as long as her starting point was for the country and the people, she would be able to get the support and recognition of the majority of people.

During this process, Li Yi always stood by Lin Xiao, giving her firm support and encouragement. The couple worked together to strive for the future of Datang. They spent countless days and nights together, discussing the country's development plans, and facing various difficulties and challenges together. Their feelings also became deeper in the process, and each became each other's strongest backing.

Once, Lin Xiao learned that a serious flood had occurred in the south, and many people were displaced and their lives were in trouble. She was extremely anxious and immediately called the ministers to discuss countermeasures. Some ministers suggested distributing relief grain and supplies, but Lin Xiao felt that this was only a stopgap measure and could not fundamentally solve the problem. After careful consideration, she proposed a bold plan - to build water conservancy projects. She believed that only by building water conservancy projects could the flood problem be effectively solved and the lives and property of the people be protected.

However, this plan was opposed by some ministers. They believed that the construction of water conservancy projects would require a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources, and the project was extremely difficult, which might not be worth the cost. But Lin Xiao was not shaken by these oppositions. She firmly believed that her judgment was correct. She personally led a group of ministers and craftsmen to the disaster area for a field investigation and worked out a detailed water conservancy project plan. With her efforts, she finally convinced most ministers to agree to start the water conservancy project.

After the project started, Lin Xiao went to the construction site almost every day to check the progress and quality of the project. She lived and worked with the craftsmen, without any airs of a princess. Her spirit of leading by example infected everyone, and everyone worked hard and devoted themselves to the construction of the project. After several months of hard work, the water conservancy project was finally completed successfully. When she saw that the surging river water was tamed and flowed obediently according to the channel designed by people, Lin Xiao's heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment and joy.

As time went by, Lin Xiao's reforms and measures gradually paid off. The living standards of the people were significantly improved, and the country became more prosperous. Lin Xiao's reputation also grew, and she became a hero and role model in the hearts of the people. However, Lin Xiao did not become complacent because she knew she still had a long way to go and there were many things waiting for her to do.

In terms of education, although many schools have been established, Lin Xiao found that the quality of education needs to be improved. So she began to reform the education system, introduce advanced educational concepts and methods, and improve the quality and treatment of teachers. She also encouraged private schools to allow more people to participate in education.

In agriculture, Lin Xiao continued to promote the innovation and promotion of agricultural technology. She organized a group of agricultural experts to go deep into the fields to provide technical guidance and training for farmers. She also encouraged farmers to carry out diversified operations, develop characteristic agriculture and agricultural product processing industries, and increase farmers' income.

In terms of military affairs, Lin Xiao did not relax her vigilance. She constantly strengthened the construction and management of the army and improved its combat effectiveness. At the same time, she also paid attention to diplomatic relations with neighboring countries, and maintained national security and stability through peaceful negotiations and friendly exchanges.

Thanks to Lin Xiao's efforts, the Tang Dynasty ushered in an unprecedented period of prosperity. The people lived and worked in peace and contentment, the social order was in good order, and the country's comprehensive strength was greatly improved. Lin Xiao looked at the prosperity she had created with her own hands, and her heart was filled with pride and satisfaction. But she also knew that all this was hard-won and was the result of the joint efforts of her and countless people.

However, just as Lin Xiao was immersed in the joy of success, a sudden crisis quietly came. The nomadic people in the north suddenly rose up and launched a large-scale invasion war against the Tang Dynasty. Since the Tang army had not experienced a real war for a long time, it was caught off guard at the beginning and suffered repeated defeats. When the news reached the palace, Lin Xiao was extremely anxious. She immediately summoned the ministers to discuss countermeasures and decided to lead the army in person to fight against the foreign enemies.

After Li Yi learned of Lin Xiao's decision, he firmly opposed it. He was worried about Lin Xiao's safety and didn't want her to take the risk. But Lin Xiao had made up her mind. She said to Li Yi: "I am a princess of the Tang Dynasty. I have the responsibility and obligation to defend the country and the people. If I back down, I will be ashamed to face my ancestors and the people of the world." Li Yi had no choice but to support her silently.

Lin Xiao led the Tang army and fought a thrilling battle with the nomadic people. On the battlefield, Lin Xiao led the way and fought bravely. Her courage and wisdom inspired every soldier, and everyone fought to the death and never backed down. After several fierce battles, the Tang army finally turned the tide and won a decisive victory. The nomadic people were beaten to a pulp and fled.

The victory of this war once again raised the prestige of the Tang Dynasty. Lin Xiao also became a hero in people's minds, and her name spread throughout the Tang Dynasty. But Lin Xiao did not become proud and complacent because she knew that the war had brought great pain and loss to the people. She decided to actively carry out reconstruction work after the war to help the people resume production and life.

After returning to the palace, Lin Xiao threw herself into her intense work. While she was busy dealing with state affairs, she was also concerned about the lives of the people. She knew that her greatest wish was to let the people live a happy life. And she will continue to shoulder this responsibility and work hard for the prosperity and development of the Tang Dynasty.
