Chapter 688: Concubine Taisun
"Your Majesty, please grant this marriage."
Seeing that Li Shimin was still hesitating, the envoy of the Southern Zhao State said for a long time, and at the end of the day, the people actually knelt down directly, Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji glanced at each other, and they also took into account what Li Shimin was worried about.
Li Shimin made the old mistake again, he wanted the horses to run, but also did not give the horses enough forage, if it was like this, then there was no way for your grandson to develop, you also saw the situation just now, if the envoys of the Nanzhao Kingdom did not say a word, and after going back, they told the king of the Nanzhao Kingdom about this matter, and our southwest will be a war.
Now Li Chengqian, the crown prince, is also very useful, although it is a bit of a fake public and private thing to do things like this, but for the entire Tang Dynasty, this is also acceptable, it is nothing more than Li Xiang's multiple women, maybe the eldest wife is not satisfied, at most it is to find a few more people to persuade it.
For the glory of the entire Datang and the safety of the entire Datang, Cheng Luan's side is insignificant.
"Since you have begged for this, I have agreed, but my grandson is currently commanding thousands of troops and horses in the northwest, so it is better for us to settle this matter first, and when he returns to Chang'an City, I will send officials from the Ministry of Rites to send him over to meet the king of your country, and the wedding date should also be set."
Li Shimin has no time to weigh the pros and cons, now he can either agree or refuse, if he refuses, then you just wait for the southwest to fall into chaos, although it is impossible for Nanzhao to come in, but the situation of Datang Anfen will also end here.
After hearing Li Shimin's words, the envoys of Nanzhao hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, although there was a trace of turmoil before, but the final result was beautiful, as for the words just heard, the envoys of Nanzhao chose to forget, who made us just a small country, the whole country can gather 30,000 troops, this is already quite a difficult thing.
If you want to hold Datang accountable, maybe you will hold your country accountable, don't think that such a thing is a joke, in the past three years, has Datang been idle? Almost every year, countries perish, a small country like Nanzhao, it is better not to be able to do it in front of the Tang Dynasty, people can give us this face, which is already very good.
said that he would give a banquet in the evening, and Li Shimin asked Wang De to send the envoys of Nanzhao back.
This guy has to write a letter quickly after he goes back, after all, this matter is not trivial, and he has to arrange officials to come over to help as soon as possible, although it is only a matter of discussion, but the marriage between the princess and the imperial grandson, which is a major event for both countries, must be well formulated.
Although I asked for a side concubine, but this is not an ordinary person's side concubine, this is the future side concubine of the Tang Emperor, according to what the envoy said, if Li Xiang can successfully ascend the throne and become the emperor, then the princess of our Nanzhao Kingdom is the concubine of the Tang Dynasty, and the queen will not be able to run away if she can't give us the name of a concubine.
The most important thing is that the son born to our concubine may still be able to become the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, if this is really the case, Nanzhao Kingdom can be regarded as a step to the sky.
"Tell me honestly, did you have a plan for this matter?"
After the envoys of Nanzhao State left, Li Shimin's suspicious personality showed up again, he thought about it for a while, there must be something strange about this matter, how could Li Tai, the king of Wei, suddenly lose his temper? And Li Chengqian came so coincidentally that he finally attributed the marriage to his son.
If this marriage goes to Li Tai's son, it will indeed cut off their way to the palace, but if it goes to Li Xiang's body, it will add bricks and tiles to Li Xiang, so that he can extend his hand to the southwest.
"Father, your old man really wronged me, I am walking in the palace, I am discussing with others about the governance of the Yellow River, where is the kung fu to know about this matter, it is purely the second brother who behaved abnormally when he entered the palace, and also scolded me, so ......"
Li Chengqian immediately behaved very wronged, and called several officials accompanying him, who immediately testified to Li Chengqian, saying that Li Chengqian really did not plan in advance, and that Li Tai's insult to Li Chengqian was also told to Li Shimin in disguise.
If this were in normal times, Li Tai would definitely not have good fruit to eat, but today this matter is not enough to see, because he did a bigger bad thing, almost caused a war between the two countries, if it were not for Li Chengqian to give him a round, now the southwest region must prepare for war.
After listening to the words of these people, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that everything is really accidental, at this time Li Shimin's face hardened again, he has favored Li Tai since he was a child, but he didn't expect this guy to be more and more nonsense, and now it has reached the point of madness.
"You personally go to pass the decree and give me a good scolding for him, from now on there is no holy decree from me, and he is not allowed to leave the Wei Palace."
Li Shimin said to the eldest grandson Wuji, the eldest grandson Wuji is not only the minister of the DPRK and China, but also Li Tai's own uncle, he should be the most suitable to do this, the eldest grandson Wuji also sighed helplessly, this nephew was very smart when he was a child, why did he become like this now?
Li Shimin was not in the mood to care about these things, but he still instructed Li Chengqian that when discussing with the envoys of the Southern Zhao Kingdom, he must set the day a little more relaxed, Li Xiang is still fighting in the northwest, if the decision is too high, it will easily affect the war in the northwest, and this matter cannot be said to be dead, everything is important to the northwest.
After explaining these things, Li Shimin let these people leave, and today was really physically and mentally exhausted, but fortunately Li Chengqian brought this matter back, otherwise he would have to convene all the generals to discuss it now.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's performance today is unusual, which really makes me admire."
After leaving the door of the Jinluan Palace, Fang Xuanling finally said a word, but this is also from the heart, if it wasn't for Li Chengqian coming over today, I really don't know what to do about this matter, the eldest grandson Wuji also nodded beside him, this nephew can be regarded as living a little more brilliant, and today's things are done well.
The two of them are still a little afraid when they think about it now, if there is no Li Chengqian, the other party wants an explanation on the spot, is there any other way to say it besides the war?
