After New Year's Eve, it was the first month of the year, and the snow was covered with ice and snow, and Chang'an seemed to be in hibernation.

However, it was soon the Lantern Festival, and countries in the Western Regions sent envoys to Chang'an to do business, sell goods from the Western Regions, purchase more abundant supplies from Chang'an, and take them back and sell them to earn the difference.

Luo Zhaoyun sent people to establish a new tax policy, as well as vendor registration clauses, various penalties, and many imperial banks set up bank notes, convertible gold, silver, and copper coins.

The business environment is effectively unfolding, unlike the Yang Guang era, when slapping people in the face, completely letting Hu Shang eat and drink for nothing and destroy Chang'an's economy.

Although all local merchants paid taxes to Hu merchants, the proportion was not high. Many details of the terms were posted, which was conducive to their trade and convenient transactions, and they were all applauding.

For a time, the two markets in Chang'an City were in full swing, and the scene of post-war prosperity appeared.

The four countries of Loulan, Wusun, Kucha and Dayuan even sent envoys to escort the beauty into the country. Although they were not the princess of the country, they were a rare beauty in the country.

These women are tall, with Western-style dresses wrapped around their bodies, with a slender waist like a bunch, plump buttocks and plump facial features, and their facial features are different from those of the Central Plains women. Their skin is extremely beautiful, completely of Central Asian skin. They are indeed extremely beautiful, with some exotic style.

The four flowers stand together, colorful and colorful, each with its own style.

"Your Majesty Dahua, please accept the No. 1 beauty in Loulan!"

"Please accept the first beauty of Wusun and make the friendship between Wusun and Dahua last forever."

"This is my first beauty in Kucha. Please accept it with your Majesty Dahua no matter what."

The envoys of the four countries all bent over and salute, hoping that Emperor Dahua would accept the beauties of their country and enhance the relations between the two countries.

Luo Zhaoyun was hard to refuse, and he did not refuse. First, the palace did need to include new people, but he did not want to choose a concubine for the time being, destroying the harmonious relationship in the palace. These foreign beauties in the Western Regions do not have to be granted a high status, do not have to be a concubine, but only be a concubine. Moreover, their words are not very informative, and they will not compete with each other for power in the palace.

Therefore, Luo Zhaoyun accepted all the envoys from the four countries went out happily, feeling that their friendship with Dahua became more deepened.

Every Lantern Festival, the lights in the flower market are like daytime. The moon rises to the willows and people make an appointment after dusk.

On the Lantern Festival night, there is no city ban, so the streets and alleys are full of people who enjoy lanterns, and the court's security is also very good.

Moreover, the court has increased the law and strictly regulated those second-generation officials and second-generation rich people. If someone dares to bully the women on the streets, no matter what official position the father has, they will be severely punished and not borrowed. This will immediately improve the rampant aristocrats in the city.

Luo Zhaoyun accompanied the concubines to admire the palace lanterns, watched the singing and dancing together, and then went to Ruyi's courtyard.

Because there were guests here tonight, her sister, Princess Nanyang of the Great Sui Dynasty, came to Chang'an. For example, Yi was a few years older and married Yuwen Shiji. She had outstanding talent and beauty. However, because the Yuwen family rebelled, they killed many princes and grandchildren of the Yang Sui royal family, which made Princess Nanyang and Yuwen Shijiji break up their ties. After Yuwen and led their troops north, she stayed in Jiangdu for a while and was later secretly taken back to Chang'an.

Empress Xiao, Princess Nanyang, and the three girls Ruyi met, and they were even more sad and endless topics to talk about.

At this time, Luo Zhaoyun came to visit, and the three girls welcomed the sage together.

"Hurry up and behave normally!" Luo Zhaoyun was very polite, so that the three girls would not have to be too polite.

Princess Nanyang is Luo Zhaoyun's elder sister-in-law, three or four years older than Luo Zhaoyun. I still remember that when we first met, Nanyang was already a big girl, and Luo Zhaoyun went to and from Daxing City, just a fifteen-year-old boy.

Nowadays, the young man has grown up so burly and magnificently, and is still the king of a country, with awesomeness, majesty and wise power.

The Princess of Nanyang not only lamented this huge change, but the royal family had been destroyed in the ashes. Almost all the men's bloodlines were destroyed, leaving only a few women and men, which was very sad.

When Empress Xiao saw Luo Zhaoyun, her eyes dodged and did not face him head-on. She usually went to see him from the back, which felt very unnatural.

Ruyi walked over and held His Majesty's arm. She felt a little grateful. If she hadn't married Luo Zhaoyun and had the ability to take the three daughters back to Chang'an and save her life, otherwise, they would not know what fate would have been, and they would have become the objects of ravage from the princes of all sides.

In the chaotic times, the consequences of the descendants of the former royal family are often not good, and the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed and the family is destroyed for a lifetime.

Luo Zhaoyun comforted, "Don't be sad, it's all over. There is a saying that goes, the river goes east and washes away all the waves, and the eternal heroes! In the historical trend, many dynasties and heroes have been ruined, and there is no immortal royal family. Even if I, Luo Cheng, have passed on the country, will it continue to flourish? So, let's take a little more open-minded. Since we are all alive, without any diseases and pain, we should be glad, grasp the present, and cherish the people in front of us."

The three women's eyes lit up, and they were somewhat comforted, and their mood improved a lot.

Luo Zhaoyun looked at the sisters and the mature Queen Xiao, and sighed in his heart: They are all devils that harm the country and the people, but they are all suffering from the misfortune of fate, which is very difficult.

"Your Majesty, Mother and Sister, they have all come to Chang'an and have been living in the palace. It seems that something is wrong. The scene here is sad, which makes people feel sad. I want to set up a house for them and live in the Lifang. When I have free time, they may enter the palace to see me, or leave the palace to visit them." Ruyi said. She was a little worried that her sister and mother were in the palace and were lonely and widowed, and easily developed a favorable impression of heroes like Your Majesty. The relationship will be complicated in the future, making it difficult for her to face it.

Luo Zhaoyun knew it well, hesitated and nodded and agreed: "Let's do this, there was no one living in Prince Yang Zhao's mansion back then. I sent someone to clean up and arrange some of it. You can live in his former residence. Maids and guards. You can let Ruyi transfer some, or you can sign a contract to rent a entourage yourself. The Ministry of Internal Affairs will allocate funds every year to spend a year."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" When Empress Xiao heard that she had her own mansion, she could be freer. She was immediately happy. Her eyes were touched by Luo Zhaoyun involuntarily, and her cheeks were suddenly red.

Princess Nanyang thought much simpler, and gave a gift to Luo Zhaoyunfu and thanked the emperor for his kindness.

Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief, with curved eyelashes and laughed very happily, feeling relieved of gratitude.
