When Luo Zhaoyun left the Zhonghua Palace, he was a little worried. He built Luoyang City within a year, even if it was just the palace and the outer wall, not counting as one hundred and eight yards, so it was very fast. At least hundreds of thousands of workers could be used.

Of course, the most trouble is that Yang Su and Luo Zhaoyun are just deputy envoys, and they don’t have that much power. They focus on protecting public security and supervising quality.

Luo Zhaoyun, Yang Da and Yuwen Kai came out. The three of them were deputy envoys, and they would have a lot of time to get along in the future. Yang Da smiled and said, "General Luo, Mr. Yuwen, we will be on the same front line in the future. It is better to have a day than to choose a day. Let's go out for a bar today. What do you think?"

Yang Da is in his fifties, with a good appearance, a good face, a strong eyebrows, and a dignified appearance. He was the Minister of the Huangmen of the Sui Dynasty, the Minister of the Inner History, and the Governor of several states. Ten years ago, he was the Minister of Works and has been working diligently and has been trusted by Emperor Wen of Sui and Emperor Yang of Sui.

Yang Da was considered a nobleman of the Great Sui Dynasty. His father Yang Shao served in the Northern Zhou Dynasty and was a member of Yitong and a doctor in the inner history. Yang Da's brother was Yang Xiong, King Guande, and one of the four nobles in the early Sui Dynasty. He was also a wealthy family of the Yang family.

Of course, Yang Da has another identity, which is even more powerful, that is, he is the grandfather of the Tang Dynasty Empress Wu Zetian!

But at this time, Wu Zetian was not born yet.

Yuwen Kai didn't have a high position. When he heard that the former prime minister and minister of the Ministry of Works, he wanted it himself, but it was difficult to refuse, so he nodded in agreement.

Luo Zhaoyun also intended to get closer to the two, so he agreed happily: "Then it's better to obey your orders than respect."

Before the three of them could take a few steps, a eunuch rushed over and called out and stopped the three of them.

Yang Da asked: "I wonder who your Majesty is going to call me back?"

"It was not the call of His Majesty, but the Empress and Princess, who invited General Luo to the backyard to appreciate the plum blossoms."

Luo Zhaoyun said oh, a little surprised, sorry to Yang Da, Yuwen Kai said: "I'll go to meet the queen and Your Highness, the princess, the night will remain unchanged, so just set it up in my own Yanyu Building, and you can get rid of wine."

When Yang Da heard this, he laughed: "Then I'll say that the wine in Yanyulou is so mellow, and I can be drunk tonight."

"Okay, I'll have tonight with the two adults, never get drunk."

Luo Zhaoyun clasped his fists and said, following the eunuch through the palace garden and the numerous palaces, and came to the back garden imperial forest.

The originally lush gardens here have changed from the lush green outfits of the past and have been replaced by white silver, and the eaves of the main hall are covered with thick snow.

The green leaves of the sycamore tree stand still, proudly receiving the wind and snow washing. Many branches and leaves are covered with pine snowballs, like white silk shirts; the branches of hanging elm no longer look so shrunk, and the white snow on them is like white plum blossoms waiting to bloom.

Luo Zhaoyun came to a courtyard where there was a plum forest.

Deep in the fragrance of the plum tree, there is a stone pavilion. At that time, the plum pavilion, the palace maids and the eunuchs stood there to serve. Empress Xiao and the little princess sat in the stone pavilion. In addition, there were some people, such as the eldest princess, Yuwen and his wife, and a middle-aged man with two boys.

Luo Zhaoyun walked over and recognized the middle-aged man in green. He was Li Yuan, two young men, Li Jiancheng, fifteen years old and six years old Li Shimin.

Li Yuan and Yang Guang are cousins. His wife Dou was born into a noble family in Guanlong and was also a royal relative of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Therefore, Li Yuan had a large power on both sides. However, Yang Guang seemed to have not liked this big-eared Li Yuan since he was a child. He felt that he was dull, dull, and really, lacked talent and did not really pay attention to him. He is currently just a ritual official who holds the flag. Although he is of the fourth rank, he has no real power.

However, although Yang Guang treated Li Yuan as average, he liked the two young and old men of the Li family very much. Li Jiancheng, who was fifteen years old, was gentle, steady and kind, and was remarkable in studying and practicing martial arts. The second son Li Shimin was lively and active, clever and weird, and had many ideas.

"Luo Cheng pays homage to the Empress and His Highnesses of the Two Princesses."

"Luo Cheng, you are here at the right time. Just now when we were waiting to appreciate the plum blossoms, the Ai family, the princesses, Shi Ji, Jiancheng each made poems about snow and plum blossoms, but no one was surprised. I thought of you. As you entered the palace to discuss matters today, I specially asked someone to wait outside the Chinese Palace to bring you here to enjoy the plum blossoms and write poems together."

Luo Zhaoyun was very reluctant and recited poetry again. Although he was half a liberal arts student and liked literature and history, he was not a real ancient man after all, and he was not so passionate about reciting poetry and writing. Recently, he had always plagiarized the poems and essays of famous scholars in the Tang and Song dynasties, and he felt a little sad.

"This, I didn't think of any excellent work for a while, I was afraid that it would make the queen and princess laugh and disappoint."

After hearing this, the little princess Yang Caiyu stuck out her tongue and secretly threw her eyes at him, thinking: I don’t know you yet, just pretend to be humble!

Li Shimin was young, but very clever. His eyes turned and he snorted: "It is said that Luo Cheng is both civil and military. He is an up-and-coming young talent in the capital. He is nothing to see him today. He hides his head and shrank his tail. No real man dares to do it. I still regard you as a role model."

Luo Zhaoyun smiled faintly, knowing that this kid was using the provocation method. The famous Emperor Taizong of Tang was still a little brat at this time.

Everyone looked at Li Shimin as young as a young man and felt funny.

Li Shimin didn't feel anything, but still held his hands behind his back and asked in his chest: "Luo Cheng, can you write a poem about snow and plum blossoms, and praise each other, but not oppress each other, which is a different kind of inferiority."

In fact, this kid has no kind intentions and is intentional for a man. A young boy over six years old, he wrote a essay. It's not easy.

Li Yuan smiled and was quite approving of the second son's urgent wisdom. Empress Xiao, the little princess and others wanted to see Luo Zhaoyun's improvisational talent.

"What's the difficulty?" Luo Zhaoyun didn't want to shrank in public, especially when facing Emperor Taizong of Tang, who has been the eternal emperor, he deliberately showed it and shocked him. Maybe he would join Li Tang in the future and know his talent.

So, Luo Zhaoyun thought for a while and said, "The plum blossoms are not willing to descend on the spring, and the poet pays a lot of money to judge the rules. The plum blossoms are three points whiter than the snow, but the snow loses a little bit of fragrance." (To be continued.)
