Chapter 54: A Difficult Choice
Chen Jingxuan's eldest son Chen Liang was cut off by Li Ye's right hand, but it still spread, after all, when the Chen family brothers came back, many people watched, but this matter did not reach Li Yi's ears.
This also makes people see the courage of Li Ye, the longevity king (according to historical records, Tang Zhaozong Li Ye was always called Li Jie before he ascended the throne, here is a reminder, and I will not remind you later, the full text is still called Li Ye for the sake of reunification), and it also makes some ministers see hope.
Tian Lingzi and Chen Jingxuan brothers not only offended many people in the court, but also offended many people in Xichuan and other places.
Now the rise of Shouwang Li Ye and Yang Fugong makes people see hope. Although most of the ministers in the court are still loyal to Emperor Li Yi, there are still some people who have a lot of attention to Li Ye, the longevity king.
As for the discussion in the camp, Chen Jingxuan is like a dumb person eating Coptis chinensis - he can't say what he is suffering about, this matter can only be broken and eaten in his stomach, as for finding the field, there will be opportunities in the future.
And when there was a lot of discussion here, in Li Yi's big tent, Li Ye fell into a difficult choice. He was still expressing his heart to Liu Chenyan outside the camp just now, but Zhang Shufei, the imperial sister-in-law who had been saved by him, also selected three relatively good candidates for her to choose.
Li Ye also saw the three candidates behind the screen, including Sun Mei, who he had a two-sided relationship, although he knew the other party's name, but he didn't say a few words. In general, the three of them are still in line with his aesthetics, although one of them may be slightly plump, but he is not fat, if it is according to the standards of later generations, it is slightly fat. It's a bit meaty, but it's not fat, and it gives people a meaty feeling. It seems that he, a cheap imperial sister-in-law, still knows his aesthetics, and didn't find him a fat scary kind. Although it's the same when the lights are turned off, he still can't accept it, he can't see it at night, but he can always see it during the day.
After seeing the appearance of the three people, in front of Li Yi, Concubine Zhang Shufei personally introduced the situation of the three to Li Ye.
"The one in the middle is called Sun Mei, knowledgeable, quite talented, and also your admirer of King Shou, and there is a pair of words you wrote in your hand, I heard that you are still her savior?" Speaking of this, Concubine Zhang Shufei couldn't help but take a look at Li Ye more, she didn't expect that this Shouwang always saved such a beautiful person, and he was actually very talented, she read the poem submitted by Sun Mei, she herself was deeply touched, thinking of this, her face was slightly red.
Fortunately, Li Yi was attracted by Li Ye's ability to write lyrics, and he didn't pay attention to his concubine's face, but asked with interest, "I didn't expect King Shou to be able to write lyrics?" Where is that word? ”
"Your Majesty, here the concubine." Saying that, Concubine Zhang Shufei asked the palace maid next to her to hand the framed poem to Li Yi, now she is pregnant, although it is only a few months, but she attaches great importance to it, she doesn't want to have an accident, if she can give birth to a dragon, her position will be stable.
Li Yi didn't know much about poetry, so when he read Li Ye's words, he only thought it sounded good, but he couldn't say what was good, "Not bad!" Not bad! I didn't expect King Shou to have talent, but I was surprised. ”
"The royal brother has a good reputation, and he scribbles at will. At that time, it was also for the Seven Emperor Sisters to win the lantern, but I didn't expect that in the chaos that night, this word was lost, but I didn't expect it to be in the hands of the lady. In this way, Li Ye's impression of Sun Mei in his heart is not so good, although he doesn't care about this poem, but Sun Mei has not told him the original, which makes him a little disliked. If the other party took the initiative to ask him for it, he might give it to the other party directly, but it was a bit too much to take it away so quietly.
The subtle changes on Li Ye's face, Concubine Zhang Shu saw it in her eyes, it seemed that Sun Mei, who she thought was the most suitable for the princess of Shou, had lost a lot of points in this matter, and she also felt pity for Sun Mei in her heart.
"Even if it's a hand-made graffiti work, it can't be lost like this, royal things, unless it's a reward, how can outsiders have it." Li Yi picked up the framed work and looked at it, and then couldn't help frowning, "Also, King Shou, you have to engrave a seal to prove that this is your work, so as not to steal your work from some lawless people." ”
"The royal brother is educated." Li Ye humbly accepted.
"Concubine Shu, in addition to this Sun Mei, the other two should also be introduced, and let King Shou choose well." Li Yi said with a smile.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Concubine Zhang Shufei bowed slightly and continued to introduce, "Sun Mei is the best family background among the three, her father is the former Chengdu Shaoyin, and in the middle of the year (Dazhong, Tang Xuanzong Li Chen's year number is 847 A.D. first month - 860 October) Jinshi, was dismissed last year, and is now idle at home. The second uncle is Shuzhou Thorn History, Sun Chen.
The woman on the left is named Wang Wanshuang, 15 years old, slightly older than King Shou, plump and quite noble. The embroidery is excellent, the concubine has personally inspected the scene, and she has also received education since childhood, and she can memorize the "Female Rules" and so on, and she is not as good as Sun Mei in terms of talent. Her family background is relatively ordinary, and she is the daughter of a county under Chengdu Prefecture, but she is also a generational eunuch.
The woman on the right is called Li Xianglan, 14 years old, delicate, is a beautiful girl, and has been familiar with the 'Four Books and Five Classics' since childhood. The family background is better, the ancestor is the Li family of Longxi, and the ancestor of Tianbao moved to Chengdu during the year. ”
"Longxi Li? Which room? Li Yi asked in a deep voice, although he did not object to the fact that the same surname was not married, but it would be inappropriate if it was the same clan.
The Li family in Longxi is divided into many rooms, and it is not surprising that there is a partial branch of one room in Sichuan, as long as it is not the same room, it is still acceptable.
"Dunhuang Li." Zhang Shufei replied.
According to the autobiography of the Dunhuang Li family, there are a total of thirteen large house branches, and the Dunhuang Li family is only one of them. However, now Dunhuang has been controlled by the Tibetans, and most of the Li clans in Dunhuang there have moved inward.
"If it's not a room, it won't matter."
In the early days of the Tang Dynasty, there would be severe punishments for marriage with the same surname or the same clan, but now, the requirements are not so strict, and Li Yi is not such a stubborn person, so he doesn't pay much attention to this. If it's not the same room, then there is not much resistance.
"King Shou, these three women are carefully selected by the imperial sister-in-law for you, you see who you prefer more suitable to be your princess Shou." Concubine Zhang Shufei said with a smile, she was pregnant, with a strong maternal glow on her face. She knew that King Shou lost his mother very early, she was five years older than King Shou, and Li Ye had saved her life, so she was also very concerned about Li Ye.
"Wait!" Li Yu's words made Concubine Zhang Shu a little surprised, and she didn't know why he interrupted, so he hurriedly smiled and said, "Concubine Shu has forgotten someone, today I found out that King Shou seems to have a favorite woman, and the candidate should have to add that one." ”
"Really?" Zhang Shufei looked at Li Ye curiously, her face full of doubts.
