Chapter 420: The New Man and the Old Man
"Why?" Jiangxia Wangfu is quite puzzled by this, the position of the Xie family's wife is vacant, and his daughter is the lord of the palace, so she has this qualification.
Is it possible to marry a concubine in the past? Such a grievance, the princess naturally can't agree.
Of course, the Xie family's situation is complicated now, and several wives have children, but this doesn't seem to be a big deal. If Xie Yi wants to marry his daughter, he must accept this condition.
"It's not Madame's concerns, I'm afraid the position of the Xie family's wife depends on the meaning of the palace."
"Palace? How could it be involved in the palace? Princess Jiangxia was puzzled: "It turns out that you have concerns because of the relationship between Xie Yi and King Jin, oh no, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but now he is not." ”
"It's not as simple as you think, there's no rush in advance, there will always be a proper solution." Li Daozong said softly: "Actually, just like now, there is nothing bad about it, my daughter lives in Baiyun Temple, as long as she is happy." ”
"Hey, Lord Wang......" Princess Jiangxia complained a lot in her heart, is there a father like you?
However, Li Daozong didn't pay attention to it, he looked like a person who was fine, and didn't say anything, which made Princess Jiangxia confused.
Does this have anything to do with the palace?
……
In the Taiji Palace, the past two years have become more and more deserted.
Most of the princes have already left the palace to open a mansion and live separately, and most of the princesses have already married.
It is worth mentioning that Princess Hengshan's concubine is not Wei Shuyu, the son of Wei Zheng before.
The marriage was naturally broken by His Majesty the Emperor Li Shimin, on the grounds that Wei Zheng may have been implicated in Hou Junji's rebellion, and the evidence was that the person he recommended had correspondence with Hou Junji.
The reason is a bit far-fetched, and when it comes to rebellion, it is often better to believe it than to believe it, and in view of Wei Zheng's character and merits during his lifetime, His Majesty the Emperor did not continue to pursue it.
But I'm sorry, the marriage between Wei Shuyu and Princess Hengshan fell through.
The emperor wants to repent of his marriage, what else can you do? Of course, Wei Shuyu could only agree. also claimed that he was not worthy of Princess Yunyun.
Later, His Majesty Li Er changed the title of Princess Xincheng to his daughter, and then married the eldest grandson Quan, who was a descendant of the eldest grandson Wuji's uncle.
Anyway, he is a member of the eldest grandson family, and he is the son and nephew of the eldest grandson's mother's family.
The eldest grandson's family is now a well-deserved first family in the Tang Dynasty, what does it mean for someone to marry a princess? No one thought it was strange, and even thought that this was a means for the emperor to appease and treat the eldest grandson's family.
After all, the eldest grandson Wuji is the emperor's brother-in-law and the uncle of the crown prince Li Zhi back then. It is rumored that His Majesty the Emperor had considered Li Ke, the king of Wu, and it was after the eldest grandson Wuji entered the palace for a long talk, Li Zhi's position as the crown prince was settled.
Judging from the current situation. The crown prince is still young, and His Majesty the Emperor will most likely entrust the eldest grandson Wuji to the eldest grandson after a hundred years, but he is a minister!
The strength of the eldest grandson's family is extraordinary, and now even the eldest grandson Chong has entered the criminal department, obviously the eldest grandson Wuji is cultivating his son. Many of the sons and nephews of the eldest grandson family began to enter the Tang Dynasty and held large and small positions.
Of course, among the street gossiers in Chang'an, the descendants of the eldest grandson's family are also the most arrogant and domineering, and no one dares to provoke them.
The prestige and favor of the eldest grandson's family are getting higher and higher. But some people don't seem to realize satisfaction, such as Sun Shunde, the eldest prince of Xue Guo, who is the uncle of Empress Changsun.
When he accompanied Li Yuan to raise troops, he was a general who could fight well. In the Zhenguan period, because he was the queen's uncle, his identity was naturally extraordinary. In addition to the eldest grandson Wuji, the eldest grandson's family is the second person in the court.
Seeing that the eldest grandson Wuji was leaning towards the opposition. The dying eldest grandson Shunde is envious!
If nothing else, in the early years, the eldest grandson Wuji was the son of the concubine, and it may not be the eldest grandson's house. But now he is the leader of the family.
The eldest grandson, Shunde, naturally did not dare to compete with his nephew for the power of the family, but he also had to consider his children and grandchildren. Seeing that the eldest grandson Chong and the eldest grandson Quan had become concubines, the eldest grandson Shunde moved his mind to make his grandson also become a concubine.
The princess who did not marry that year was left with Princess Jinyang, which is the most beloved princess of His Majesty the Emperor, if she becomes her granddaughter-in-law, then the status and future of the family in the family should be much better.
So the eldest grandson Shunde licked his old face and euphemistically expressed his intention to propose marriage to His Majesty the Emperor, but what? It's a pity that Li Shimin didn't respond immediately.
The reason given is that Jinyang is still young, wait a minute!
Princess Jinyang is almost fifteen years old, is she really still young? The eldest grandson Shunde had a vague bad premonition in his heart, could it be that His Majesty the Emperor didn't want this marriage?
At this time, it coincided with the rebellion of Gai Suwen in Gaoliyuan, Liaodong, and although the eldest grandson Shunde was old, he still asked for help, in order to make war achievements and propose to the royal family.
Probably in order to appease these generals, Li Shimin's attitude became a little ambiguous, but there was no marriage.
The reason is that he wants to drive to Liaodong in person, and he has no time to handle the marriage of his children.
State affairs are important, who dares to say nothing? Then Li Shimin left the crown prince Li Zhi to supervise the country, assisted by Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji, and led the army to conquer Liaodong under the escort of the generals Li Ji, Wei Chigong and Changsun Shunde.
With such a magic as gunpowder, coupled with the effectiveness of the Tang Army, the Tang Dynasty is rich and strong, and Yuan Gai Suwen is naturally not an opponent. However, the supply distance was very long, and Liaodong was a bitter cold place, so the war still lasted for two years before it ended.
By the time Li Shimin returned to Chang'an, it was already the end of the twentieth year of Zhenguan. In this battle, the great general Li Ji naturally had great merit, and Wei Chigong and the eldest grandson Shunde also had merit.
But the greatest credit is undoubtedly a general named Xue Li, who has been promoted from a Guoyi lieutenant to a third-grade general Yunlu.
In this battle, Xue Rengui took the lead, often led his subordinates as the forward, and overcame countless dangerous passes, and was a hero second to none.
Because of this, he will be promoted rapidly, as if he will be cultivated as a pillar of the Tang Army in the future.
Of course, it is necessary to investigate Xue Rengui's origin, and Li Shimin was surprised to find that this person was discovered by Xie Yi and then brought into the army for training.
Xie Yi, this young talent who had been forgotten for three or four years was remembered by His Majesty the Emperor, and he had already snubbed Xie Yi for three or four years.
Perhaps, it's time to enable him!
In particular, Cen Wenwen contracted an illness in the process of conquering Yuangai Suwen and unfortunately died, and Li Shimin was very sad about this.
Unfortunately, after returning to Chang'an, Prime Minister Fang Xuanling was also infected and fell on the bed. Just last year, Ma Zhou, the imperial historian, also died young.
Suddenly, many important ministers fell ill or died, and Datang suddenly seemed to have some talents withering......
Especially after Li Shimin heard and saw something, the mood of enabling the "newcomer" became more and more urgent. (To be continued.) )
