It turned out that when he was in Chang'an, Li Wanping went to find his mother Princess Jin, and talked about the marriage of the third sister of the Bai family and his third brother Li Chengxun, Princess Jin was overjoyed, and was worried that she could not find a suitable candidate, although she invited a large group of Chang'an noblewomen, but there were fewer and fewer girls under their own hands, and now free love is popular, and many little girls go out to find their husbands by themselves, and they are not happy to let the family introduce them.

Now I suddenly heard that the third sister of the Bai family actually had this intention, where was the princess of Jin unwilling, saying that she must promote the marriage of the two, others don't know, but he knows it well, none of the women of the Bai family are ordinary people, and they can't ask for it, don't say anything that once cared about others, even if they once promised others, isn't it different if they didn't get married? There are many second marriages and remarriages in the Tang Dynasty, and a good daughter-in-law is much stronger than these vain face-saving manners.

So the two discussed, Li Wanping deliberately deceived Li Chengxun, saying that there were a lot of blind dates to go on, just to promote a good relationship between him and Bai Sanmei.

Bai Fan watched his wife and mother-in-law tossing like this, hiding with his father-in-law Li Jiancheng and covering his eyes and not daring to come out, and secretly mourned for his brother-in-law Li Chengxun in his heart.

The next day, it was rumored that Li Chengxun and the third sister of the Bai family were engaged, and the emperor Li Er was overjoyed, and decided to give the marriage by imperial decree on the spot, and all the civil and military officials came to congratulate him.

Everyone inspected the newly built Shu Road, and on the way back to Chang'an by car, Li Er smiled and asked Bai Fan, "The third sister of the Bai family is married, what dowry do you want to give her as an elder brother?" I heard that the girls of the Bai family are all extraordinary, and your dowry must not be stingy. ”

Bai Fan smiled, "I was about to discuss this matter with Your Majesty, everyone knows that I, Bai Fan, am the richest man in the world, so poor that I only have money left, but when the third sister gets married, it doesn't seem very elegant for me to give money directly, it's a little cheesy, so I want to buy a jade vein from Your Majesty and give it to her, I don't know what Your Majesty thinks?" ”

Li Er scolded with a smile, "You kid dare to speak, the world's beautiful jade is a rare treasure, and an ordinary piece is priceless, you are good, the opening is a jade vein, I have never seen any jade vein, where can I get you a jade vein as a dowry?"

Private mining is not allowed in Datang, have you forgotten this rule? Even if a jade vein is found, it is also a state-owned thing, so how can it be bought and sold privately? ”

Bai Fan waved his hand again and again, "Your Majesty misunderstood these things, how can you not know that the ore vein I am talking about is not in the territory of Datang, Datang crosses Nanzhao to the southwest, there is a country called Pi Country, where jade and jade are abundant, and mineral veins are everywhere, if you just want to spend money to buy one and give it to your sister, Your Majesty should not be stingy." ”

"What? The veins of the Pi country? Are you saying that there are jade veins in the southwest? Li Er exclaimed.

Only then did I realize the true meaning of Bai Fan's words, this was not talking about the mineral veins, nor was he talking about the dowry, but saying that there was a treasure in the southwest that the Tang Dynasty could plot to go over, and the eyes of the hundreds of military officials on the car were also bright, and the road of Lantian Hou was really wide, and he even knew what mineral veins other countries had.

Li Er waved his hand and smiled, "Okay, if there are really so many treasures there, it is not a problem to reward you with a jade vein, you don't need to pay for it, just as I will reward my nephew with a wedding gift." ”

Bai Fan's face was bitter, and he said helplessly, "Your Majesty, if you are so whole, I will have to think about other gifts again, isn't this embarrassing for me?" ”

Everyone in the car laughed, Lantian Hou was obviously cheap and obedient,

"Full speed ahead, return to Chang'an and immediately plan to send troops to the southwest, I remember you said before that there is any high-yield rice in the southwest, this matter should have been put on the agenda a long time ago, and it should be done together."

Bai Fan said this news at this time, it can be said that Li Er was surprised and delighted, very much in line with his own heart, since he knew that the Boling Cui clan actually leaked the gunpowder to the northwest, to the Western Turks, and even to the foreign countries further west, you have been entangled in whether to use troops in the northwest, after all, the Western Turkic countries are not small, with a large population, if it is really a thunderbolt, the Tang army will suffer heavy losses in the past.

Now it's okay, don't fight the northwest, turn to the southwest, you can also open up territory, you can also accumulate wealth, why not, as long as Datang does not stop the pace of expansion, his Wang Tu hegemony will succeed one day,

The people in Chang'an, after hearing about the dowry given by the Bai family, were amazed, in the end, it was the Bai family that was rich and rivaled the country, and many young sons were envious, why didn't they marry the girl of the Bai family? I heard that there is also a Bai Xiaomei in the Bai family, and if you don't seize the opportunity, there will really be no more, so in the next month, the people who climbed the threshold of the Bai family never stopped, which made Li Wanping anxious, and kept complaining that her husband Bai Fan was too public.

The Tang Dynasty began to act, the southwest mobilized troops, two ways to attack, all the way from the Tubo Road, all the way to let the Yue King Feng Ang from the Lingnan Road to send troops, the small country of Nanzhao was originally a subsidiary country of the Tang Dynasty, this time let him return to the Tang Dynasty, turned into a place.

Coupled with the soldiers and horses of the southern call, the heavy troops of the three roads, and the direct capture of the country of Pi, the southwest country of the country was taken by surprise, and it was too late to defend, and the ordinary means of defense did not play any role, the Tang Dynasty all the way was pushed by the thunder and thunder, plus all the southern scholars, not afraid of the miasma of the rainforest, in less than three months, the country was completely taken, the news was transmitted to Chang'an, and the whole country rejoiced.

The wedding of Li Chengxun and Bai Sanmei was arranged at the time of the New Year's Festival, just when the country of Bi was taken down, and Feng An, the king of Yue, said in a telegram that he would come to Chang'an in person to report the victory.

But when he attended the wedding, the gifts he brought made the civil and military officials very stunned, and others were giving gift box babies as congratulatory gifts. Are you here for a wedding or are you here to smash the scene?

At this time, Bai Fan laughed and greeted him, and explained to everyone, "Don't underestimate this large pile of stones, this is specially brought by the king of Yue, specially used for the wedding, this is not an ordinary stone, it is dug out from the jade vein of the Pi Kingdom that has just been laid, and these large and small stones may be wrapped in the best jade."

Today, everyone bets on a stone, how about a stone gambling competition? Let's see who has good luck and can open the best jade, but whoever opens the treasure jade, I Bai Fan personally carved it for him. ”

Everyone applauded and enthusiastically participated, and even a lot of money was not much, and they asked their subordinates to go home to get the money, and this lively scene was almost overshadowing the wedding of the two couples.
