Lizheng Palace.

At this time, the Spring Festival is approaching, and even if it is snowing heavily, the palace has already begun to dress up early.

However, since Emperor Li Yuan has just passed away this year, it is not good to be too colorful even for the New Year.

Looking at the blessing words posted on the window, Empress Eldest Sun sighed softly.

"Alas, so, I'm really a little wronged by that kid."

She looked at her husband, who was drinking tea next to her, and said:

"In just a few months, Lu Heng has made so many contributions to Datang......"

"But Xiao Yu's behavior is still not dealt with, it will chill his heart, right?"

Li Shimin drank hot tea, and his heart was not very comfortable.

After all, although Lu Heng is not from a poor family, his original rich merchant family background is far inferior to those families with five surnames and seven wangs.

Even the most down-and-out family will feel a head above others on a psychological level.

These people have a natural sense of superiority.

He had no way to move Xiao Yu and the people behind Xiao Yu for the time being, so he could only let Lu Heng break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

Such an upright young man has to hold this breath, and even His Majesty Li Er is wronged for him.

"There's no way around it."

Li Shimin let out a sigh, shook his head and said:

"I promised him that if he could cure your illness and win over the family, I would personally give him a word."

"Now it seems...... In any case, I have to give him this word! ”

This is also a kind of compensation.

Hearing this, Empress Eldest Sun hesitated for a moment, got up and walked to Li Shimin's side.

She whispered:

"Your Majesty, the concubine has something I want to discuss with you."

Li Shimin raised his head in surprise:

"Guanyin, you can say something directly, it's not a matter in the court after all, you can make your own decisions in the harem."

Empress Eldest Sun shook her head and said:

"It's a harem thing, but it's not quite."

"The concubine thinks that when this year is over, we will be able to prepare family affairs for Yu'er."

Li Shimin was stunned at first.

But after a few moments, he realized what his wife meant.

"Do you want Lu Heng to be Yu'er's concubine?"

Li Shimin frowned.

It's not that he doesn't like this young man, but he always feels that Yu'er should marry someone better.

Princess Li Lizhen of Changle married the eldest grandson Chong, and Princess Xiangyang married Xiao Rui, both of whom were the eldest sons of the Guogong Mansion.

Although it is not necessary to marry the eldest son, there are not so many outstanding young men who are matched and of the right age......

But you have to be a child of a national family, right?

Empress Changsun has been with him for more than 20 years, and she knows her husband very well, and she knows what the other party is thinking when she sees his expression.

She sat next to Li Shimin and gently patted the back of her husband's hand with her hand.

"Erlang, in fact, this matter doesn't necessarily have to be a child of the national government."

"Let's choose a son-in-law for Yu'er, firstly, to marry the ministers of the court, so that they can become more and more sincere to the court, and secondly, we hope to find a good home for our children."

"Like Tang Shanzhi, who you liked before, he is not the eldest son, but also the fifth son."

"If you want to inherit the title in the future, it won't be his turn."

"According to the concubine, on the contrary, it is this Lu Heng who is more likely to earn a title for himself, not relying on his family, not relying on his ancestors."

Li Shimin hesitated for a long time after hearing this, but in the end he didn't fully agree, but only slightly relieved.

He looked serious and said:

"We also have to discuss this matter with Yu'er, although it is said that the appointment of the parents is a matchmaker, but after all, it is also a major event related to her life."

"Guanyin, have you talked to her about this before?"

Hearing His Majesty Li Er say this, Empress Eldest Sun smiled slightly and didn't say anything more.

I'm afraid this old father is still in the dark—

His daughter's heart has already drifted into the arms of that simple boy!

………………

At the entrance of Miyagi, the carriage staggered into the palace gate.

It stands to reason that this carriage should not have entered the palace, but after all, Princess Yuzhang was sitting in the car, and it was impossible for the forbidden army guarding the door to let the princess walk in.

On such a cold day, who is it that freezes out?

All the way to the vicinity of the Lizheng Palace, the carriage stopped.

Li Mingyu looked at Lu Heng who jumped out of the car, the other party was carrying a large bag of things in her hand, and her face was full of doubts.

"It's not...... You bring so much, but my father and queen mother don't lack anything! ”

Lu Heng was carrying a lot of heavy objects in his hands, but he didn't seem to be struggling at all, and he could easily bare his teeth at Li Mingyu.

"You don't understand."

"As I told you before, after the potatoes are presented to His Majesty, I will ask him to marry you."

"I used to see him as a face saint, but this time, it's a prospective son-in-law meeting his father-in-law!"

"Seeing that it is impossible for the future father-in-law to come empty-handed, then when I mention marrying you, won't I be beaten out with a stick?"

This is the umpteenth time Lu Heng has said such things.

But obviously, even after listening to it many times, Li Mingyu still did not develop antibodies to it.

Her face was flushed, and there were ripples in her beautiful eyes, and she glanced at Lu Heng, glaring at the young man.

"Stop talking nonsense, you get in quickly!"

The two walked into the palace together.

When Empress Eldest Sun saw this pair of young men and girls coming in, she smiled happily.

She hurriedly beckoned:

"It's snowing so hard outside, you two must be frozen, right?"

"Hurry up, come over for some hot tea and warm up!"

Lu Heng fixed his eyes.

What is in front of me is really the kind of tea with various seasonings of green onions, ginger and salt!

He shook his head like a wave:

"Queen Mother, the minister won't eat tea, and it's not particularly cold outside."

"Oh yes, this time, the minister brought a lot of things, and there is a jar of wine with a lower degree in it, you can drink it if you want to warm up."

As he spoke, Lu Heng took out a pottery wine jar from the big bag.

He specially brought this jar of wine, and it was only distilled once, and the degree was more friendly to the people of the Tang Dynasty.

Empress Eldest Sun was a little puzzled and a little curious:

"Didn't you say before that it was better for me and Your Majesty not to drink alcohol? Why did you bring it yourself this time? ”

Lu Heng smiled:

"It's just that you should drink as little as possible, but the wine is pleasant, drink a drink to warm up your body, as long as you are careful not to drink too much."

When he took out the jar, he also took out the contents from the other packages.

In addition to wine, there is also his homemade sausage, a whole bottle of allicin, and various souvenirs.

“…… You've brought a lot of stuff with you. ”

His Majesty Li Er was a little speechless, but he didn't know how to complain for a while.

Lu Heng just smiled and put everything away, and then suddenly his face became solemn, and he bowed down in front of Li Shimin.

He paused word by word.

"Your Majesty, when the minister entered the palace today, I also want to tell you something."

"The minister wants to marry Princess Yuzhang."
