Not long after the selection of the East Palace was established and King Di opened the mansion and built the government, there was another prince who opened the palace and built the government, which was naturally the third prince Li Yu.

The three princes were named pious kings, and what is more interesting is that the three princes were also allowed to go to Taifu Temple to study.

Who doesn't know that Taifu Temple is now the treasury of the imperial court and the royal family, in addition to the imperial merchants and the imperial village, it belongs to the city to make money.

Fortunately, the third prince just went to study, not to be in charge of Taifu Temple, otherwise it would be a real headache.

Many ministers are a little incomprehensible to the intentions of the saints, including several important ministers.

If you can't understand it, you can't understand it, but things still have to be done.

Just when the situation in Chang'an City was changing, a caravan from Nanzhao appeared outside Chang'an City, looking at the tall and majestic Mingde Gate in front of him, the people in one of the carriages in the caravan exclaimed.

"Father, is this Chang'an City? How is it so much bigger than our capital? ”

A woman in men's clothes looked at Chang'an City in front of her, and she was very excited.

This woman is not very old, in fact, she is only in her teens, and there are two men, one older and one younger, next to her.

The older man is the father of the woman's mouth, about forty years old, wearing an obvious Nanzhao costume; The smaller ones are as old as the women, only in their teens.

"It's a bit big, and it's my first time here."

Seeing the city wall of Chang'an City in front of him, Longteng was also surprised.

He is a cousin of the former Nanzhao Emperor Long Shun, and he is the same grandfather as Long Shun, and he belongs to the kind of inconspicuous in the Nanzhao royal family.

It is precisely because of this that Shun Huazhen will send him, the imperial uncle, so that Zheng Maihei will not notice it.

At the same time as sending people to the Tang Dynasty, Shun Huazhen also sent people to the Bagan Kingdom, which can be regarded as making preparations with both hands, and by the way, to see which side has good conditions.

"Your Highness, the caravan still has to go to the city for the record, does Your Highness plan to go directly to the Tang Dynasty's Honglu Temple after entering the city, or?" A middle-aged literati came to Long Teng's front and asked respectfully.

"Find a place to live first, and then find a way to contact the Tang court, and I don't know if I can meet the emperor of the Tang people." Longteng didn't know the bottom of his heart.

Longteng has never been to Datang and is not familiar with Datang.

Moreover, this time they came secretly, and they couldn't alarm the envoys of the Nanzhao faction in Chang'an, otherwise Zheng Maihei would know the news.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

In surprise, Long Teng and the entire caravan entered the city after registration, and when they saw the wide Suzaku Street, they were even more surprised.

Compared with the Chang'an City under their feet, their Yangtho Baa City in Nanzhao is like a small town, and the gap is too big.

Even Xingyuan and Chengdu, which they passed by, were larger and more prosperous than Yangtho City.

。。。。。。

"Madam, our daughter is also twelve years old, you can take it to the palace tomorrow, let the queen mother take a look."

Returning to the house, as soon as he returned from the palace, Quy Nhon Shao said this to his wife.

Now the emperor's eldest son, King De, has entered the East Palace, although the East Palace has not yet been repaired, but the time for King De to enter the East Palace is also fast.

There is a master in the East Palace, so the candidate for the crown princess is also on the agenda.

Originally, when the saint came back from the eastern capital Luoyang, he was choosing a future princess for several princes, but now that the position of the crown prince has been determined, things naturally have to speed up.

It just so happened that Quy Nhon Shao had a concubine who was of the right age.

Since nominally this time it is the crown prince to choose a concubine, but in fact, King Di and King Qian have also reached this age, even if they can't get a princess for their daughter or granddaughter, they can also fight for a princess.

Of course, the important ministers of the court are not so active about their daughters or granddaughters becoming princesses of Di and pious princesses.

Fortunately, the princess is from a low background, and she is only a palace maid during the reign of the saint, and her mother is not prominent.

Therefore, it is not possible for the pious king to compete for the position of the prince, and he will not be involved in the chaos of the prince's dispute.

King Di is different.

If you let your daughter become the princess of Di, she will inevitably stand on the opposite side of the descendants, and ordinary families still don't dare to start betting so early.

"Master, can our daughter do it? Our family is not a big family, and the queen may not be able to look down on it. Mrs. Gui was a little worried.

If she was facing an ordinary family, Mrs. Gui would not be so unconfident, but when she was facing the queen and the prince, the arrogance in Mrs. Gui's heart would dissipate.

The Gui family is not a big family, it can only be regarded as a scholarly family, after all, there have been many jinshi.

Even those families, facing the royal family in today's situation, are not as confident as before.

The so-called families have long been seriously damaged. Although there are also many children of the family in the center of the court, there is no successor, and the proportion is not much, but because the saint has expanded the scale of the imperial examination, more and more children of the poor family have been promoted.

"Whether you look at it or not, this opportunity cannot be missed." Quy Nhon Shao said seriously, "Don't look at me as a cabinet scholar now, but after all, I am only a bachelor who became a bachelor by luck with Honglu Temple, and I don't have much prestige in the court.

If our family can produce a crown princess, even if it is a princess, she will not be isolated in the court. Of course, you can't be the princess of Di.

Now that Concubine Li has died of illness, although Song Guogong has the title of Duke of Guo, compared with the descendants, the difference in strength is too great.

If we are on the side of King Di, it is easy to be targeted.

Therefore, if our daughter can become the crown princess, it is undoubtedly the best, and if she can't do it, she can also try Princess Di. ”

Mrs. Gui saw that her husband attached so much importance to this matter, so she also nodded, "Don't worry, sir, the concubine will bring Ping'er to the palace tomorrow and let the queen take a look." ”

There are naturally many ministers who have daughters in the court, and this time the crown princess is selected, as long as the officials are of the fifth rank and above, they can send their school-age daughters or granddaughters to the palace to participate in the election.

Of course, there is a condition, it must be a concubine.

The crown princess is the future queen, if she is a concubine, how can she be the mother of the world?

In this way, the range is much smaller.

And there is another condition, that is, those from a family are not good.

This is Li Yejia's condition, he does not allow the prince to find a woman from a family as the crown princess.

In the same way, neither can the king of Di and the king of piety.

This is actually a disguised suppression of the family to prevent the family from taking the opportunity to recover and grow.

The strength of the family will threaten the Jiangshan Sheji, and Li Ye will not allow such a situation, otherwise the ministers in the court will all be from the family.

Li Ye didn't say this explicitly, but it was a wake-up call to the queen, which is equivalent to narrowing the scope a lot.

For the election of the crown princess, Quy Nhon Shao also attaches great importance to it, but he still has his own things to do, in addition to the affairs of Honglu Temple, there are a lot of things on the cabinet side.

Now he is a cabinet scholar, although he is mainly in the cabinet, but he also has to take care of the Honglu Temple.

On this day, as soon as he arrived at the official office of Honglu Temple, someone found him below and told him that several men claiming to be from the Nanzhao Mission had asked to see him.
