Chapter 117: Nanzhao's Marriage Seeking Group (3)
"Since you recommended him to go, let him be responsible, but tell him that this matter is very important to this king, and you can't leak it, otherwise even you will not escape responsibility. This king is not joking, understand? Li Ye solemnly admonished, which can be regarded as a warning to the other party, although Li Ye does not want to use these eunuchs very much, but if Zhang Wei's righteous brother is really the Zhang Chengye in history, it is not impossible to use it, but this gunpowder matter involves secrets, and he must be cautious and cautious.
"Yes, Your Highness, when you return to the palace, the servant will take Chengye to see Your Highness." Seeing Li Ye's expression, Zhang Wei knew the importance of the matter, based on his summary in the past few years, the other party rarely showed such a solemn look, which shows how important the other party attaches to this matter.
"Hmm." Li Ye nodded, and then instructed Zhao Xiong on the side, "Send a team of personal soldiers to guard here, don't let others enter the manor, if there are suspicious people nearby, if they don't enter the manor, don't care, if someone sneaks into the manor, they will be dealt with." ”
"Yes, Your Highness." Zhao Xiong clenched his fists heavily, and then thought of something, so he couldn't help but speak, "Your Highness, since this thing has been developed, will Your Highness not come here?" ”
"What are you doing with all this king's affairs? Do your own thing, don't worry about what you shouldn't be in charge of, the trouble comes from the mouth, you know? Li Ye glanced at Zhao Xiong coldly and said unhappily.
"Please forgive your sins!" Seeing Li Ye's face change, Zhao Xiong realized that he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly pleaded guilty.
"This king doesn't want a next time." Li Ye didn't have time to investigate who instigated his own personal soldier commander to ask about this, but it was nothing more than those officials in the palace, maybe it was the manor that he had been running for alchemy during this time, which made some people dissatisfied.
Although Li Yi is not so suspicious of him now, he still doesn't let him ask about some things, so it can be seen that the suspicion is still there, and he must continue to defile himself, just supervise the improvement of gunpowder.
Regarding Zhao Xiong's reproach, Zhang Wei looked coldly on the side, the other party was not very bad with him, but it was not all the way, what did the other party have to do with him being scolded. It's not a short time with His Highness, and I don't know what to do or what not to do. He was sure that if Zhao Xiong was still like this later, His Highness would definitely remove the other party from the post of warden, because the other party had already violated what he should not violate as a pro-soldier commander.
On the way back to the palace, Li Ye was thinking about how to cover up the explosion. His every move is being watched by someone now, and the explosion of the manor will definitely not be hidden from those people, rather than being made a fuss by those people, it is better to take the initiative to admit it himself, and try to make the result beneficial to himself.
However, as soon as he returned to the palace, he found that Princess Changning was waiting for him in the palace, and even King Mu Li Yi also came, and he looked in a hurry, looking very anxious.
"Sister Seventh Emperor, what's wrong?" Seeing that his sister was so anxious, Li Ye was a little strange.
"Where did you go?" Seeing Li Ye coming back, Princess Changning asked.
"I'm going to see alchemy in the manor outside the city." Li Ye did not tell the real reason for the alchemy, and only a few people knew about it, and even the subordinates in the manor who did not participate in the alchemy did not know.
As for Princess Changning and others, Li Ye didn't say anything, lest the other party leak his mouth, and it involves things that hurt the family relationship between sisters and brothers, so it is better to let the other party know less.
"At this time, I still have the heart to go to alchemy, do you know that Nanzhao sent someone to marry the second emperor sister. I heard that Nanzhao sent a prime minister over there, and it seems that she really wants to marry the second emperor sister to Nanzhao, but the second emperor sister doesn't want to marry to that wild place, so she keeps crying in the palace. Princess Changning stomped her little feet and walked back and forth, her expression full of worry.
"Nanzhao is here? When was this? Li Ye was not only a little curious, why hadn't he heard about it.
"This morning's business, but only arrived in Yazhou, and it will arrive in Chengdu in a few days. If the second emperor sister really marries Nanzhao, won't this life be over? Is alchemy important, or is the happiness of the second emperor sister important? Princess Changning asked.
"Of course, the happiness of the second emperor sister is important, but she doesn't have anyone she likes, otherwise she can still think of a way, but now she can't find someone to marry casually, right?" Li Ye spread his hands and said that he was also helpless.
At the beginning of Li Ye's arrival in this time and space, he was also a little surprised why Princess Anhua, who was 18 years old at the time, did not marry. Later, after Li Ye went to inquire, he knew that it was because of the relationship.
The reason why the imperial court wants to make peace with Nanzhao is because Gao Yu made it. At that time, although he defeated the army of Nanzhao, but Nanzhao intruded on the border from time to time, he came up with the matter of harmony, but because of the strong opposition from the court and China, it was temporarily shelved, but Zongzheng Temple screened suitable candidates on the order of Li Yu.
In fact, there is no need to screen, Yizong's daughters, in addition to Princess Wei Guochang, who died of illness, the living and unmarried princess Anhua Princess reached the age, and Princess Changning was not yet 14 years old at that time. So it didn't take long for Princess Anhua to be canonized as a princess, and was promised by Li Yi to marry the current emperor of Nanzhao, Long Shun. It's just that this marriage has been very opposed by the imperial court, and it has been delayed, so the 19-year-old Princess Anhua has not yet married.
It's just that I didn't expect Nanzhao to give up yet, and sent someone to ask for relatives, and also sent a prime minister.
For Long Shun, Li Ye has some impressions, although he is the second emperor of Nanzhao, he is also the penultimate emperor of Nanzhao, he is extravagant, and finally he was killed by his close ministers, and finally slaughtered by his Han officials, and then even the rivers and mountains of Nanzhao were sent out. Therefore, Li Ye is not optimistic about Princess Anhua marrying Nanzhao, but he can't guarantee whether he can stop it.
"Brother Seven Emperors, what now?" Li Yi on the side was also a little anxious.
"What to do? I have to go and find out the situation, and there are many people who oppose this marriage, and it is not certain whether it will be successful or not, so what are you worried about. ”
Although the Tang Dynasty married some princesses, most of them were clan daughters, to put it bluntly, the county lord under the distant prince was named a princess, and then married, Princess Wencheng is like this. Of course, there are also emperors' daughters who marry foreign countries, but they are married to Hui Khan, compared with the Hui at that time, what is Nanzhao? A small country that can be said to be called a wild land.
It is precisely the contempt of the court and the central government for Nanzhao, so when Gao Biao proposed to make peace, the ministers of the court and the central government did not even agree to marry ordinary clan girls, and they also married an eldest princess?
Although after Huang Chao broke through Chang'an, the strength of the imperial court was greatly reduced, and it was not good to fight with Nanzhao, but the ministers of the court and the central government still practiced the procrastination trick, that is, they opposed marrying the eldest princess of Anhua to Nanzhao, and last year it was dragged like this. I didn't expect the Chinese New Year to come this year, and Nanzhao is here again!
