[End of the book] Chapter 241(1/8)

After returning to Chang'an City, Li Hongyu's life became comfortable. Few people dared to touch the military god's bad luck at this time.
Li Zhiyun has also learned his lesson. He has hardly heard any news recently. It is said that he is holed up in the Tang Pagoda and is studying hard to break through the third level of the barrier. He will never leave the barrier until he breaks through the third level.
Liu Wenjing suddenly found the dancing horse one night.
Wu Ma asked him: "If you don't fight in Dongdu, why are you looking for me?"
"Li Mi is like a coward, I can't exert myself." Liu Wenjing lowered her voice: "I'm coming tonight to give you a warning."
"how?"
"Li Zhiyun," Liu Wenjing lowered her voice, "Li Shimin and Li Zhiyun now regard you as a thorn in their flesh. You should be careful and be careful not to take a dirty gun. You don't know how you died. Especially Li Zhiyun, I saw you in his room.
There are several names written on small slips of paper. The words look very interesting."
"What do I think?" Wu Ma said: "These two people don't like me, and they don't like me for a day or two."
"Just be more careful..."
Liu Wenjing probably wanted to thank Wu Ma for his help in advancing to the next level, and repeatedly asked him to be careful, so she returned to the battlefield in Dongdu that night.

Li Hongyu made great military exploits, so Li Yuan didn't know how to reward her. After thinking hard, he decided to make Li Hongyu a general of heaven, in charge of the world's military operations. After thinking about it, Wu Ma thought that this position was probably equivalent to a high-ranking official in later generations.
This canonization caused a lot of controversy in the court. In terms of military merit, there was nothing to talk about. However, some ministers believed that there was no precedent in the history of letting a woman take charge of the world's military affairs, and it was not appropriate for this court to be the first to do so.
And...it doesn't sound good to say it out loud.
Some ministers also asked whether there should be female officers under the Tiance female general.
According to Li Yuan's wishes, Tiance Mansion can recruit and appoint subordinate officials on its own. If Li Hongyu really appoints a group of female officials, it will be an unprecedented spectacle and needs to be carefully considered.
Li Yuan said: "You all can discuss in this palace today whether there should be female officials. Fortunately, the Hongyu Army blocked Liu Wuzhou from the north. But I don't know that Liu Wuzhou really entered Chang'an City. All you dears had at that time."
What a blessing."
After saying this, all the ministers were silent. Soon, there were still ministers who insisted on objecting, but Li Yuan had already made up his mind, saying: "If Hongyu wants to recruit female officials, then she will do it. After all, she is a female general, and her husband is newly deceased."
, it’s not very convenient if you don’t have a capable person around you.”
On the day of the political discussion, Li Hongyu was far away in Shuofang and did not participate in politics.
After the decision was made, Li Yuan asked people to erase the names of the ministers who had raised objections. The minutes of the meeting only mentioned that the matter had encountered considerable resistance, but it was finally passed due to the firm opinion of the Holy Spirit.
When the news reached Li Hongyu, Chen Yingying smiled happily and reached out to ask Li Hongyu for an official position.
Li Hongyu said: "Tiance Mansion will not recruit any female officials, so just give up on this idea."
Soon after, when the Tiance Mansion was being established, Li Hongyu did not recruit any female officials.
Wu Ma asked her why, and Li Hongyu said, "Do you really want me to hire a female officer?"
She poked her eyes with the index and middle fingers of her right hand, "Aye is staring at me."
"Oh, I understand." Wu Ma said, "Let's pretend to be grandsons together from now on."

The battlefields in the northwest and north are basically over, but fighting is still going on in the east and south.
Li Jiancheng is beating Dou Jiande, and Li Shimin is beating Li Mi.
Li Hongyu, as the female general Tiance, paid attention to the war situation in two aspects, and sent a letter to ask if support was needed.
Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin expressed a rare tacit understanding: Please rest assured that the organization is under control, and victory is within reach.
In fact, Li Hongyu was just careless and trying to scare the two brothers. She was not even interested in taking a look at Dou Jiande and Li Mi, two tough guys.
There are not many military achievements left in the world. The key to Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin's fight for the dragon throne lies in these two battles. They both lost, or they both won, which is better to say.
If one loses and the other wins, it will be a huge difference in Li Yuan's eyes.
Li Hongyu was not interested and had no need to get involved in the fight between the two.
So, for a short period of time, Li Hongyu had nothing to do and no battles to fight.
It cannot be said that there is no war. There are still several warlords running around in the vast land in the south, including Du Fuwei, Li Zitong, and Lin Shihong. Li Hongyu also took the initiative to invite soldiers to fight. Li Yuan made some calculations, and at the same time, he and Li Mi
With the war against Dou Jiande, Datang's funds were already very tight. If another war started, the people of Chang'an would start chewing the turf.
Li Yuan simply asked her to let it go.
Li Hongyu let it go. Thinking about it, she was already very red at this time. If she gets redder, she will turn purple. Friends who often practice alchemy know that purple on the face is a sign of poisoning, which is not far from burping. Li Hongyu needs to take a rest.
Take a break to make yourself appear less radical and impatient.
Anyway, Li Yuan made Li Hongyu the general of Tiance and allowed her to establish the Tiance Mansion. Wu Ma also gave Li Hongyu a list of so many people, so he might as well take advantage of this period of time to build the Tiance Mansion.
However, it is not good to prepare and recruit people in such a big way, as it may easily arouse Li Yuan's suspicion.
Li Hongyu and Wu Ma then thought about how to find talents and recruit them so that they would look more tactful and reserved, not so ambitious and impatient.
Unexpectedly, the preparations for Tiance Mansion have come to a standstill.

During this time, love letters sent to Li Hongyu flew into Li Hongyu's mansion like snowflakes.
The men in Chang'an City are going crazy - the most beautiful woman in the Guanzhong area, the invincible military god who protects the Tang Dynasty, the newly appointed general of Tiance Mansion... There has never been such a perfect person in ancient times, who is capable of both literary and military skills.
The woman, at this moment, was alive in the Tang Dynasty, walked into Chang'an City, and appeared under the sky that breathed together with the men of Chang'an City.
People always have to pursue something in their life.
If you can't be the best man in the world, then why not pursue the best woman in the world?
This is a fucking shortcut.
Every single man in Chang'an who felt that he was a little bit good began to learn to write love letters, specifically to Li Hongyu.
All married men in Chang'an City who felt that they were a little bit good also began to learn to write love letters. If Li Hongyu didn't mind, they could divorce their wives at any time, or let their wives abdicate and have a second wife.
Those older men who have wrinkles on their faces, white hair on their heads, and even all their teeth have lost their teeth, are not to be outdone and regain their youth by getting porcelain teeth.
Those men in Chang'an City who felt that they were completely incompetent also began to learn to write love letters, that is, the second-rate men who hang out in the streets all year round and wait for death, those who perform on the stage, those who tell fortunes in the streets, those who tell stories in brothels, and those who beg for food under the overpass.
, people who go around selling children, people who come to the government to collect feces from public toilets, etc.
All those who were literate and had sound arms and legs, and even those who were illiterate and whose hands and feet were not sound, all began to learn to write love letters to Li Hongyu.
What if Li Hongyu is suffocated by lard?
The men learned to write poetry in vernacular when they heard that Li Hongyu disliked formal classical Chinese and preferred straightforward vernacular.
Vernacular poetry consumes more paper than classical Chinese poetry. What can be explained clearly in four lines and twenty characters in a classical Chinese poem would require at least ten sheets of paper to be wasted if it were replaced by a vernacular poem.
Therefore, the letters that flew into Li Hongyu's mansion were very thick, some were thicker than historical records, and it would hurt someone's head if they hit them.
There was a suitor who was a man of letters in his own right. He could not pull ten oxen when he was poetic. He wrote five sacks of love letters in a few days and had to pay ten stretcher-bearers to carry them to Li Hongyu's mansion.
From the beginning, Li Hongyu did not allow men to send love letters through the main entrance, because it seemed as if she allowed men to write love letters to her, which seemed very improper.
The men stood in the corner outside Li Hongyu's mansion and threw love letters inside.
The men in Chang'an City who were interested in Li Hongyu had to throw at least one love letter into the yard every day. If everyone ran over, the scene would be crowded and noisy, making the men look very ungraceful, and Tiance's female generals wouldn't like it either.
.
Men began to line up and throw out love letters based on their occupation, status, official position, age, property, and beard length.
At the same time, they made very detailed time arrangements. For example, men who were officials in the court arranged rest time after lunch and dinner because they had to go to work during working hours.
Those older than fifty are scheduled to go after four o'clock in the morning, because as people get older, they get up earlier and do not need to occupy the normal rest time of young men.
Those with more money and those with longer beards are scheduled to attend the prime time at 7pm.
Because men with a lot of property can use their extra money as operating funds for Li Hongyu's suitors and Freemasons.
Men with long beards tend to be more masculine. When Li Hongyu saw men with long beards, she might think that the men in Chang'an City were very sexy, and she started to read the love letters written by them emotionally.
The suitor who wrote five sacks of love letters was scheduled for two o'clock in the morning, because he took a long time, and it was arranged late at night without taking up everyone's normal schedule.
So, in the middle of the night, the suitor, together with ten stretcher-bearers, arranged five sacks in a row in the corner, threw love letters into them, and shouted: "Ruby and Ruby, come out and pick up the love letters."
"They were afraid of disturbing the surrounding people and attracting the urban management to enforce the law, so they kept their voices low and shouted.
In the quiet and dark night, white envelopes and papers were flying all over the sky, coupled with feeble moans, the scene was like a burial for the dead.
By the time the five sacks of love letters were thrown into Li Hongyu's house, a small hill had been piled up on the other side of the wall, which could be seen from the other side of the wall without even stepping on tiptoes.
The ten stretcher-carrying men also breathed a sigh of relief. Each one took out a love letter from his arms and carefully threw it on the top of the small mountain bag.

Li Hongyu has no intention of stopping the men from Chang'an City throwing love letters to Li Hongyu's mansion. She has already explicitly ordered that men are not allowed to send love letters in from the main entrance, which has shown her attitude. As for the men throwing love letters in from outside the wall,
This is outside her jurisdiction.
However, the women in Chang'an City are about to be driven crazy... Ever since Li Hongyu returned to Chang'an City, the men in Chang'an City have no intention of being closely integrated with their women.
They must devote all their energy to the great cause of writing love letters to Li Hongyu.
To be continued...
