After half a month of hard work, I finally got what I wanted!

Bai Song was indescribably overjoyed, humming a little song on the way back to the academy.

But this matter still can't be rushed, because Li Jing is not there, Shu Wang's parents died early, and he can only propose marriage after Li Jing returns to Beijing.

Bai Song planned to hide this in his heart in advance, and only at the last moment did he give Shu Wang a big surprise.

As everyone knows, half of what he said made Li Yuan not understand at all.

He said what his favorite girl's family name was.

Bai Song replied with the word "Li".

The Li family in Chang'an has two families: Li Jing and Li Tao.

There are no school-age women in Lee's family.

Li Jing only has his granddaughter Shu Wang.

When Bai Song said this, he thought that Li Yuan could figure it out that the person he liked was Li Jing's granddaughter Li Shuwang.

But Bai Song forgot about the other Li family.

That's Li Shimin's Li family, members of the royal family!

In Bai Song's cognition, he didn't think about anything to do with the royal princess, so he didn't think about it so much.

But the speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.

Li Yuan heard Bai Song's request and said that he would give a reply after understanding, which was an expedient measure.

To Li Yuan's ears, Bai Song's request could be described as bold.

Then who else can the girl of the Li family have besides Princess Li Xiangnan of Runan?!

This Bai Song was recommended by Li Xiangnan, and Li Yuan knew that his granddaughter had some personal relationships.

Bai Song didn't know that Li Xiangnan didn't seem to go to Xingqing Palace much, but he told Li Yuan a lot about Bai Song when Bai Song was away.

Li Yuan is a person from the past, and the little girl's heart is difficult to hide in his eyes, and Li Xiangnan always has a strange brilliance in his eyes when he tells about Bai Song.

Bai Song left, Li Yuan's expression gradually became serious, and he looked back at Xiao Changle who was studying how to make tofu with the palace maids in the distance.

"Lizhi, come here."

"Grandpa Huang, what's the matter?"

"Come here."

"Oh."

Little Lori answered and happily ran to Li Yuan's side.

"Grandpa Huang, what's wrong?"

"How is your sister Xiangnan doing?"

"How's it going?" Little Lori didn't quite understand Li Yuan's words, "It's been good lately...... No, it's been bad lately. ”

"Do you have something on your mind?"

"What else can there be, it's not just that I heard that I was going to marry a Turk and was depressed."

"yes...... To the south, you are to marry the Turks...... No wonder he asked me to help him propose. ”

"Propose? Help whom? The little girl was shocked and interested.

"Bai Song."

"Bai Song! Bai Song begged the emperor's grandfather to propose marriage to his father, is he going to marry his sister? ”

Li Yuan took a deep breath and nodded: "I'm afraid that this is the case." ”

Little Lori's eyes widened, as if she had heard some exciting news, her little hands were clenched together, and she clenched them into fists: "Great! ”

"Great?" Li Yuan was puzzled.

"Grandpa Huang, my sister fell in love with Bai Song early! You can help my sister once, my sister doesn't want to marry a Turk at all! ”

"Xiang Nan really likes Bai Song?"

"Yes! Although my sister didn't say it, she could even see the chestnuts, so she must have liked it tightly. Grandpa, if you want you to speak, my father will definitely change his mind. ”

Little Lori was very excited, and kept pestering and urging.

Li Yuan frowned slightly, and said quietly: "What does the little girl know?" It's not as simple as you think. ”

"Grandpa Huang, people don't understand, my sister married the Turks in order to win the hearts of the Turkic people, but why sacrifice my sister's happiness? There are other ways to bring in the Turks, but there is only one sister to marry. Moreover...... Besides, Bai Song has long been a minister under his sister's skirt......"

"Ministers under the skirt? What nonsense are you talking about! ”

Little Lori was also anxious, and she said what she shouldn't have said, seeing that the emperor's grandfather had a serious expression, she was so frightened that she didn't dare to explain, so she said something else.

Li Yuan fell into deep thought, he didn't expect Bai Song to give him such a big problem.

This is not only a verbal promise to Bai Song, but also related to the happiness of his granddaughter and the long-term peace and stability of the people of the two ethnic groups.

In the end, Li Yuan thought of another layer.

If he speaks, will the emperor change his decision because of his father's face?

If even the Imperial Physician dares to talk about the Emperor Taishang has no right to speak, then the world must also think that the Emperor Taishang has already become an ornament, right?

Li Yuan clenched his fists, and he suddenly wondered if he still had the right to speak.

Maybe it happened to be a test between father and son.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan's eyes were a little more worried, but there was some imperceptible resentment hidden in the worry.

……

Inside the palace, a group of Turkic envoys had just left.

The Turks have been hesitating for a long time about the choice of the princess's marriage.

The main reason is that I heard that the princess is very reluctant to marry, and in order to take care of the princess's emotions, the Turks have discussed and screened internally for a long time, and there has been no conclusion.

Although the Tang Emperor said that the candidates were decided by the Turks, and according to the Tang Dynasty etiquette, there was no need for the princess to be satisfied.

However, the Turks, as vassals, should have to think twice, especially after changing the Jieli Khan.

The new Jieli Khan is more tactful and not as arrogant as the previous Jieli Khan.

Soon after taking office, he established a good relationship with the Tang court.

It's just that the Turkic people's reputation among the people is too bad, and it will take some time to change the image of the people.

It's October.

The wedding should not be postponed any longer, and the Turks sent a team of envoys into the palace to discuss.

Finally, the candidate for the colt was finalized.

The leader of the Turkic tribe, the Heavenly Khan personally named the Star Khan.

Xingchen Khan is the highest candidate under the Heavenly Khan, and his status is noble, and marrying the princess by him can fully demonstrate the respect of the Turkic people for the Tang Dynasty, and it is also enough to match the noble status of the princess.

And what the Turks did not say is that the Star Khan is Han!

Since the princess doesn't like the Turks, then choose a Han husband, and the other party will definitely be satisfied.

In fact, the Turks also attach great importance to this wedding, and they have the same idea as Li Shimin, as long as the wedding can be carried out successfully.

The Turks are also afraid that the princess will be rude, and if she marries and makes trouble, it will be difficult to deal with it when the time comes.

The patriarchs of the various tribes discussed, Xingchen Khan is the best choice, not only the Han people, but also good-looking, there is nothing that the Han girls don't like.

It's just that they want to keep it secret, and the Turks don't want the identity of Xingchen Khan to be exposed, which is a bit bad for the Turks.

Li Shimin had never seen this mysterious lord of the grassland, but he didn't have to see it, it was enough to hear that he was a young and handsome man.

After some discussion, the Turkic envoys left, and today they have finalized the candidates, and the marriage date will be set on the next day.

The news soon reached the princess's ears.

The princess's palace quickly closed its doors, and a faint sobbing sound could be heard from inside.

Soon, Li Lizhi ran over, directly pushed away the palace maid guarding the door, and shouted in the courtyard: "Sister, open the door quickly!" ”

"Princess Changle, the princess said that she is not seen now!"

"Sister, open the door quickly, I have great news! Bai Song is coming to propose! ”
