Tang Dynasty：Live with princess Changele, Li Er is going crazy

Chapter 69: Talking on the Bed, No Problem!

While introducing, Xiao Ran explained to Li Lizhi how to use these products and their benefits. Li Lizhi, understanding Xiao Ran’s intentions, realized that if Xiao Ran taught her, she, in turn, could teach her mother.

After a while, Li Lizhi exclaimed, “These are all for women. How do you know how to use them, and you know so well?”

“I learned it on the spot when I went out to buy them,” Xiao Ran replied.

Li Lizhi nodded, “No wonder you were out for so long. Now I get it.”

In Li Lizhi’s mind, if Xiao Ran knows how to use these products, she won’t have to do it herself.

The explanation was almost complete, and it wasn’t early. Xiao Ran glanced at the time, “Changle, it’s getting late. Go and rest!”

“Okay!”

Li Lizhi got up and went to the bathroom. Xiao Ran tidied up the things, avoiding awkwardness by staggering the timing. When Xiao Ran finished tidying up, Li Lizhi also completed her toiletries. She went to the bedroom alone, changed into her nightclothes, and slipped into her bed.

Xiao Ran went for a quick wash and returned to the bedroom. Li Lizhi maintained some reserve on the other side of the dividing line. Beyond the dividing line was Xiao Ran’s bed. The nature was different, even though it was just a line separating them.

Xiao Ran lay down, turned off the lights, and said, “Changle, good night!”

Li Lizhi hesitated and softly said, “Xiao Ran, not goodnight yet. I can’t sleep. Will you talk with me?” Her voice was barely audible.

Xiao Ran responded, “It’s too far; I can’t hear you. Changle, come a bit closer.”

“Is that okay?” Li Lizhi hesitated.

“It’s fine. Just come over and talk,” Xiao Ran persuaded himself with a reason.

“Alright,” Li Lizhi agreed, “I’ll come over and talk, then go back to sleep later.”

“Exactly, just talk, it’s okay,” Li Lizhi reassured herself.

Wrapped in a blanket, Li Lizhi moved to Xiao Ran’s bed, bringing them closer, but there was still a noticeable distance between them.

“Uh-huh!”

“Changle, is there something specific you want to know?” Xiao Ran asked.

“I want to know what will happen to the Tang Dynasty in the future, and how long will the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty last?” Li Lizhi inquired.

“The 289th year of the Tang Dynasty!” Xiao Ran responded.

“Ah! Why only two hundred and eighty-nine years?” Li Lizhi found it hard to accept.

“The First Emperor initially thought about passing on for generations,” Xiao Ran explained.

“Two hundred and eighty-nine years is not short. The First Emperor swept Liuhe in fourteen years, and the Great Qin disappeared. During Emperor Wen’s period, the Sui Dynasty experienced unprecedented prosperity but lasted only thirty-eight years! Even the combined duration of the Two Jin Dynasties is only one hundred and fifty-six years. Datang is considered quite long,” Xiao Ran clarified.

“What about the two Han Dynasties, which lasted four hundred years? I am less than three hundred years old in Datang,” Li Lizhi pointed out.

“You mentioned the two Han Dynasties, which lasted four hundred years together. If Emperor Guangwu of Han hadn’t been a descendant of the Liu family, the Great Han Dynasty would have fallen in two hundred and ten years. In between, there was the Xin Dynasty, and afterward, the benefits were redistributed,” Xiao Ran explained.

Li Lizhi thought for a moment, “That’s right! The Xia, Shang, and Zhou Dynasties lasted four or five hundred years, and the Zhou Dynasty lasted eight hundred years!”

“Before the First Emperor and after the First Emperor are different. It has been a new era since the First Emperor,” Xiao Ran clarified.

“Two eras?” Li Lizhi sought clarification.

“Later generations refer to the time before the First Emperor as a slave society and after the First Emperor as a feudal society. The nature is different. Moreover, before the First Emperor, it was divided into feudal systems, making it incomparable to the time after the First Emperor,” Xiao Ran explained.

Li Lizhi nodded, “I see!”

“Not only Datang, but the dynasties after Datang also did not exceed three hundred years. Later, people called this phenomenon the law of the dynasty cycle!” Xiao Ran added.

“No more than three hundred years?” Li Lizhi questioned.

“Occasionally, there are special cases that exceed three hundred years, similar to the Han Dynasty, but there are definitely significant twists and turns in between,” Xiao Ran clarified.
