"Huh......" Li Chengqian, who was about to go to Li Er, heard a cry not far away, and Li Chengqian limped to find the sound.

In a gazebo, a young girl was seen crying, and Li Chengqian recognized that the crying person was his half-sister Li Xin, the emerging princess.

"Why is Xin'er crying here, but if someone bullies you, tell the eldest brother, and the eldest brother is angry for you." Li Chengqian tried his best to put on an amiable appearance.

Li Xin looked up at Li Chengqian with teary eyes, and was very surprised by Li Chengqian's attitude, what happened to the eldest brother today? It's become so gentle, it's not like the big brother I'm familiar with.

Although Li Chengqian and Li Xin are brother and sister, they are far from being as close as he imagined, and His Majesty Li Er only loves the children of Empress Wen of the eldest grandson on weekdays.

As for the children born to other concubines, they are not so concerned, although they are not ruthless, but they are also somewhat distant.

In addition to ceremonial greetings on weekdays, His Majesty Li Er rarely takes care of them, let alone Li Chengqian's half-brothers and sisters.

This is the gap between the concubines! Although there is the same blood flowing in the body, the treatment is very different.

Seeing Li Xin's sadness crying, Li Chengqian couldn't bear it, and reached out to wipe the tears from Li Xin's face, no matter what, the girl in front of him was his sister.

Li Xin was stunned, looked at Li Chengqian with a smile, let him touch and wipe his face, and suddenly felt flattered!

After all, Li Chengqian has the thinking of a later generation, and there is no difference between men and women in his mind, and the idea of the difference between men and women, and the distinction between concubines and concubines, in his eyes, as long as he is the child of his father, it is his brothers and sisters.

As long as he doesn't get along with him like Li Tai, he treats everyone equally, and he won't treat him differently because the other party is a concubine.

They are all their own brothers and sisters, so why should they be so clearly divided.

"If you don't say it, how can the eldest brother help you?" Li Chengqian saw that Li Xin didn't speak, so he spoke.

"I—I'm getting married! I'll never see my mother again! Li Xin came back to her senses and said.

"Xin'er is getting married, this is a good thing! Why is it so sad! If you miss your mother, won't you still be able to go into the palace to visit, how to say it seems to be a parting between life and death. Li Chengqian said with a smile, he really didn't understand, shouldn't he be happy about such a good thing as getting married! What to cry about.

"Big brother, don't make fun of me, this time I married Mobei, not to mention the long distance, how can I come back if I want to." Li Xin cried.

Li Chengqian was stunned, what did you say, what did I call me make fun of you.

Suddenly, Li Chengqian remembered that the emerging princess in front of him was promised to Xue Yantuo Khan by His Majesty Li Er last year, and became the object of peace between the Tang Dynasty and Xue Yantuo.

Why did the emerging princess talk to Xue Yantuo, this matter had to be talked about last year, that is, the sixteenth year of Zhenguan.

At that time, the general Qibi He Li returned to the tribe to visit his mother, and was detained by Xue Yantuo, and Yi Nan forced Qibi He Li to return to Xue Yantuo and rebelled against the Tang Dynasty.

Who knew that this Qi Qi He Li was actually loyal to Datang, not only rejected Yi Nan, but also cut off his ears to show his loyalty to Datang.

Yi Nan saw that Qi Bi He Li was like this, and Xue Yantuo did not have the strength to confront the Tang Dynasty, so he took the opportunity to ask His Majesty Li Er to marry the princess and his relatives.

This matter made His Majesty Li Er very moved! I was moved to cry on the spot! In order to save this loyal general, His Majesty Li Er sent the minister Cui Guoli to Mobei to agree to Yi Nan's request.

The condition is that Yi Nan must first let go of the general Qi He Li to return to Chang'an, and His Majesty Li Er can marry his daughter to Mobei and marry Yi Nan, an old man.

At that time, His Majesty Li Er said to the minister: "Xue Yantuo is strong, I have two countermeasures here, one is to select 100,000 elite soldiers to attack Xue Yantuo, cut the grass and eradicate the roots, this is a century-old plan, and the other is to use the Huairou policy to envelop it, which can ensure that the border is worry-free for 30 years, but I don't know which one is better?" ”

Above the court, no one from the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs could answer His Majesty Li Er's question, and only Fang Xuanling stood up.

Fang Xuanling said: "After the chaos of the Tang Dynasty, it has not stabilized yet, even if it wins, it is a harm, it is better to make peace with Xue Yantuo." ”

So His Majesty Li Er adopted Fang Xuanling's suggestion, married his fifteen daughter Xinxing princesses to Mobei to Xue Yantuo Khan Yi Nan as his wife, let Yi Nan come to Lingzhou to welcome his relatives, and asked Yi Nan to prepare cattle, sheep, horses, camels and other hundreds of thousands as a dowry.

To put it bluntly, Li Xin is nothing more than a victim of politics.

That's not right! Didn't Qi Bi He Li already persuade his father to refuse to make peace? Why do you still want to be friendly now? Is there something wrong with this?

Li Chengqian thought about it, and then remembered that His Majesty Li Er had indeed agreed to Qi Bi He Li's suggestion and not to make peace with Xue Yantuo, but after all, His Majesty Li Er was the king of a country, and he couldn't go back on his word, and he took it back so unscrupulously.

So, His Majesty Li Er sent someone to tell Yi Nan to come to Lingzhou with a dowry to marry the princess in person.

Yi Nan, who got the letter, was overjoyed and agreed on the spot, and at this time it was already the seventeenth year of Zhenguan.

In order to marry the daughter of His Majesty Li Er, Yi Nan levied cattle, sheep, horses, camels from his subordinate tribes, and this levy passed for more than half a year.

"If that's the case, Xin'er can rest assured! will definitely not let you marry Mobei. Li Chengqian said.

"Really?" Li Xin couldn't believe it, and after seeing Li Chengqian's sworn nod, Li Xin burst into tears and smiled: "Big brother didn't lie to me? How did the eldest brother know? ”

Li Chengqian, who has experienced his previous life, is naturally able to predict the future, and even if he has not experienced it himself, he can clearly know the direction of the situation.

Yi Nan was unlucky, but he caught up with the heavy snowstorm halfway and froze to death a lot of livestock, and later His Majesty Li Er used this as an excuse to refuse to kiss.

"Xin'er rest assured! How could the eldest brother lie to you, my father will definitely find you a young talent in Chang'an to be my father's son-in-law. Li Chengqian said.

Li Xin saw that what Li Chengqian said was confident, and it didn't seem to be a lie, so she couldn't help believing Li Chengqian's words, and became inexplicably closer to Li Chengqian.

"Big brother, it's not too early, I'm going back! Otherwise, the nurse should be in a hurry! Li Xin exclaimed, got up and saluted Li Chengqian, and turned to leave.

"If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to the East Palace, and your own eldest brother will be the master for you!" Li Chengqian said towards Li Xin's back.

Li Xin stood stunned when she heard this, turned to look at Li Chengqian and waved her hand, "Is it really possible?" ”

Li Chengqian nodded vigorously, and after Li Xin got a positive answer, he turned around and left with joy.

My heart is beautiful, my big brother is so good!
