Chapter 1169: A Marriage Doomed to Tragedy
"General of the Firearms Army!"
In the Changsun Mansion, when Changsun Chong was appointed as the general of the firearms army, the entire Changsun Mansion suddenly raised his eyebrows, although the firearms army was only a thousand people, it was the first army in the world in terms of combat power, and everyone understood that once he took over the firearms army, Changsun Chong would definitely soar, and as the son-in-law of the Changsun Mansion, the Changsun family would naturally rise.
"Thank you dad for your help!" The eldest grandson Chong looked happy and said respectfully to the eldest grandson Wuji.
The eldest grandson Wuji looked at the eldest grandson Chong, who rarely showed joy, and couldn't help but feel a little more loving, the once confident and flying eldest grandson's sister-in-law seemed to be back again, and it was in vain that he tried his best to get this errand for the eldest grandson Chong.
"The firearms army is very important, the military department attaches great importance to it, Your Majesty has decided to expand the firearms prison from the original 1,000 people to 3,000 soldiers and horses, this is your opportunity, and it is also your heavy responsibility, in the future, you must be familiar with the military books, study the art of war, and do not fall into the name of the firearms army." The eldest grandson Wuji solemnly commanded.
"Three thousand soldiers and horses."
The eldest grandson Chong was overjoyed in his heart, Mo Jiazi defeated 5,000 Tubo cavalry with 1,000 soldiers and horses, and if the firearms supervisor was expanded to 3,000 soldiers and horses, it would not be invincible.
"There's one more thing you need to do well. That is the marriage with Princess Gaoyang. Eldest Sun Wuji looked at Eldest Sun Chong deeply and said.
Changsun Chong was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but think of a gentle figure in his heart, although Princess Gaoyang was already an adult, she was generous, and her appearance was also top in the harem, and she was not inferior to anyone, but Changsun Chong did not have the slightest love in his heart, and he took the opportunity to force his concubine away and let his children give away.
And the happier Changle and Mo Jiazi are, the more he thinks that this happiness should belong to him in his heart, and it is even more difficult to accept Princess Gaoyang in his heart.
The eldest grandson Wuji did not urge, but looked at the eldest grandson Chong calmly, and after a long time, the eldest grandson Chong lowered his head and said respectfully: "The child understands that in the future, he will definitely love Gao Yang and become a good husband." ”
Changsun Chong understood that the reason why he was able to take charge of the firearms army and his marriage to Princess Gaoyang was an introduction, and under the temptation of his own future, Changsun Chong finally bowed to reality.
The eldest grandson Wuji nodded with satisfaction and said: "You are the son-in-law of the eldest grandson family, and my father believes that you can shoulder the heavy responsibility of the eldest grandson family." ”
The eldest grandson Wuji knew that he relied on his prestige to subdue the eldest grandson Chong, but this was a palliative rather than a cure, and only by letting the eldest grandson chong accept it in his heart, this marriage could be counted, after all, after he and the eldest grandson queen died, Princess Gaoyang was the guarantee for the prosperity of the eldest grandson family, so that the bond between the eldest grandson family and the royal family could last forever.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, you see, this is a treasure from the Western Regions sent by the eldest grandson, and it is said to be worth a thousand gold! The eldest grandson is too good to the princess! In the Gaoyang Palace, a palace maid looked at the treasures of the Western Regions in front of her, and couldn't help but shine with her eyes, and exclaimed in her mouth.
Although Hou Junji has not yet returned triumphantly, Hu Shang in the Western Regions has already come to the Tang Dynasty from Gaochang in a steady stream, bringing a large number of treasures from the Western Regions, and the treasures selected by Changsun Chong are the treasures brought by Hu Shang, such treasures, even in the palace are extremely rare.
Princess Gao Yang glanced at the treasures of the Western Regions, although she was very satisfied with the attitude of the eldest grandson, but her mouth was unforgiving: "Most of the world's fine products come from Mojia Village, and these are just some dead things. ”
The personal palace maid's face suddenly changed, and she hurriedly advised: "The princess is cautious, the slave knows your thoughts, but the wedding between you and the eldest grandson is imminent, but His Majesty personally instructed the marriage, which has become a fact, and I also ask Her Royal Highness the princess to be cautious in her words and deeds for her future happiness." ”
Princess Gao Yang suddenly fell to the case and cried: "What else can I not say, the words of the matchmaker of my parents are consensual, but my father has asked me if I am willing, all women in the world can choose their favorite husbands, and only I, Gao Yang, have no choice, I am just a sacrifice, just to compensate for Changle to the sacrifice of the eldest grandson's family." ”
In fact, Princess Gaoyang understands that if she searches the entire Chang'an City, she may not be able to find a few people with a better family background than Changsun Chong, but Princess Gaoyang, who is rebellious by nature, is haunted by the marriage contract between Changle and Changsun Chong, and she is even more resentful of being treated as a victim.
For a while, jealousy and unwillingness continued to breed in Princess Gaoyang's heart, devouring Princess Gaoyang's arrogant mind.
"The Queen's Reward!" As an announcement sounded in the Gaoyang Palace, Princess Gaoyang, who was still complaining just now, immediately wiped away her tears, sorted out her clothes, and appeared in the main hall with a well-informed appearance.
"Thank you, Queen, for the reward." Princess Gaoyang looked at the treasures in front of her, respectful and polite, she couldn't see the previous resentment at all, Princess Gaoyang's mother died early, and her foundation in the palace was weak, and she relied on acting in front of Li Shimin and Queen Changsun to gain love, which is also why she was obviously dissatisfied with this marriage, but she didn't dare to resist, she could only resentment behind her back, but on the surface, she looked happy, because she knew that if she rejected Changsun Chong, it would be a slap in the face of Queen Changsun, and she would have no status in the palace in the future.
"Congratulations on the princess's wedding." Gong E, who headed the Lizheng Palace, congratulated him.
Princess Gao Yang nodded and said, "Thank you, I don't know where the queen is!" Hongu wants to go and thank him personally. ”
Gong E shook her head and said, "I'm afraid that Princess Gaoyang is one step late, Your Majesty and the Queen Mother have already set off for Jiucheng Palace." ”
In the past, Jiucheng Palace was a royal summer resort, since Merton used saltpeter to make ice, no one was willing to travel in the hot summer, all stayed in the house honestly, and used ice to cool off, and the autumn is the best season for travel, plus the Gaochang war has ended, there is nothing to do in the court, Li Shimin has the opportunity to go to Jiucheng Palace for vacation. ”
"Jiucheng Palace, why didn't the queen mother inform Gao Yang and let Gao Yang serve with her." Princess Gaoyang was surprised and said, since Princess Changle got married, and Gao Yang is the future daughter-in-law of the eldest grandson's family, Princess Gaoyang naturally replaced Princess Changle to accompany the eldest grandson queen to take care of her, which can be said to be quite popular with the eldest grandson queen.
Gong E arched her hand and explained: "I think that Her Royal Highness the princess is about to get married, and it is inconvenient to leave Chang'an City, so I didn't notify the princess." ”
Princess Gaoyang's face was suddenly full of loss, as a person in the palace, like a bird in a cage, who doesn't want to travel outside the palace, and as a princess, there are only two ways to leave the palace, one is to travel with Li Shimin, and the other is to marry.
"Once Bengu gets married, then no one will restrict the freedom of Bengu." Princess Gao Yang looked at the sky blocked by the high wall, and secretly swore in her heart.
