Chapter 55: Gaozong's Question
Finally, Princess Taiping sighed and said, "Then, Brother Han, who do you want me to marry?
"You make your own decisions, there is no need to ask my opinion, this is also the view that I share with the queen mother, remember, sister, your own happiness is the most important, there is no such big thing in the world, your own happiness is the most important, haha!" Xiao Han said indifferently.
"Brother Han is chic, I understand, but, I see what my mother means, I want you to marry Wan'er!" Princess Taiping said again.
"Then I'll marry Wan'er, she's already beautiful, beautiful, generous, and temperamental, hehe, I don't think there's anything wrong with it, as long as she feels at ease; haha, it's no big deal, as long as Yu'er isn't jealous, fortunately, Yu'er is very good, I don't need to comfort her in particular!" Xiao Han obviously knew it.
"Ah!" In an instant, Princess Taiping's eyes widened again!
"In short, as long as my sister is safe and happy, this is why I want you to worship the Sword Saint as a teacher, with him, no one can hurt you, remember, protecting yourself is the best policy;
"Thank you, Brother Han, Taiping understands, Taiping will do what you say, thank you, Brother Han!" After speaking, Princess Taiping kissed his face again.
"Let's go, father and queen mother are still waiting!" Xiao Han was completely free and easy at this moment.
"Yes, Brother Han, you will have to take care of the queen mother in a while!" said Princess Taiping.
"Got it, Taiping doesn't have to worry, I have my own measure!"
While speaking, they had already arrived at the imperial study, and sure enough, Gaozong was asking Wu Meiniang: "Say, you'd better make it clear immediately, why do you want Xiao Han to accept the challenge of so many people in the rivers and lakes?
It turned out that what Gaozong was most worried about was this matter, what he was worried about was Xiao Han's safety, and when he heard this, Xiao Han's eyes moistened.
"Your Majesty, this was originally to let Xiao Han establish his authority, make him the supreme of martial arts, and unify the martial arts, so as not to disturb the peace of the country and the locality; moreover, some martial arts people have been involved in the disputes of the princes, do you say, don't restrain them, will it be successful? Could it be that Your Majesty is willing to see the princes kill each other like in the previous dynasty?" Wu Meiniang said bluntly.
"You!" Gaozong Li Zhi wanted to refute, but he was speechless.
"Father, mother, what are you discussing? Can the emperor listen?" Princess Taiping and Xiao Han had already walked in.
"Alas, Huang'er, your father is asking the queen mother about Xiao Han's challenge to the martial arts heroes, you say, what should I do?" Wu Meiniang's eyes glanced at Xiao Han.
Obviously, he's the real key!
"Father, you're thinking too much, can you let Brother Han answer this question?" said Princess Taiping.
"Ah, Xiaohan, you're here too, what do you say?" Gaozong Li Zhi said in surprise.
"Father, you have misunderstood the queen mother, the queen mother is completely kind, really, the current martial arts people really need to be controlled, especially, some of them have been involved in the disputes of the imperial court, if not eradicated, the consequences are really unimaginable, so, the child completely agrees with the mother's thoughts and practices!" Xiao Han clearly stated his attitude.
"Ah, you also agree, but you alone, how can you resist so many heroes in the rivers and lakes?" Gaozong Li Zhi asked again, puzzled in his heart.
"So that my father can rest assured, Sister Taiping has solved this problem, and the martial arts people who come to challenge must first pass the first level of Qin Yun, and then the second level of the third lord Xue Gang, so that there are very few people who can fight with children, haha, please rest assured that the father and queen mother!" Xiao Han hurriedly explained to dispel his confusion.
"Ah, really, Qin Yun and Xue Gang blocked you first, that's great!" Gaozong's face finally turned rosy.
"Father, really, just now in the Emperor's Mansion, they have personally agreed, Qin Xiaozi and Xue Xiaozi are automatically invited, haha, Father doesn't have to worry!" Princess Taiping hurriedly said.
"Okay, great, with these two boys in the way, Han'er should be fine, haha, my father hasn't had dinner yet, come on, how about you accompany your father and mother?"
"Yes, Father, Queen!" the two hurriedly agreed.
"Xiao Han, you really know how to deal with things, the three lords have let you ambush you, haha, your Majesty, I think Xiao Han is simply the gospel of our Tang Dynasty, as soon as he comes, there will be no more trouble, okay, Xiao Han, keep working hard!" Wu Meiniang smiled again.
"Yes, thank you for the encouragement of the queen mother, the child will definitely work hard!" Xiao Han hurriedly promised.
"Well, that's right, I said, the queen must have an arrangement, and that's true, okay, hey, didn't you say that you still have to talk about the marriage between Xiaohan and Wan'er? Xiaohan, what do you think?" Gaozong Li Zhi asked again.
"The child obeys the will of the father and the queen mother!" Xiao Han hurriedly replied.
"Okay, great, Your Majesty, I think it's going to be done for them in the first month, haha, this is double happiness, okay, it's really good!" Wu Meiniang's face was about to bloom.
"Well, okay, then pick a day as soon as possible, so as not to worry everyone!Also, Qin Yun and Xue Gang should also tell them a few times, let them do their best, and don't let the martial arts people look down on our generals of the Tang Dynasty!"
"So that my father can rest assured, they have all learned the plum blossom swordsmanship, Qin Yun also worshipped the sword saint as a teacher, hehe, he is also my senior brother, haha, we will use Brother Han's plum blossom swordsmanship to defeat all the challengers, let Brother Han easily become a martial arts supreme!" Princess Taiping hurriedly explained the auspicious feelings.
"Okay, great, so, the whole world is under our control, Queen, you have done a good job in this matter, haha, come, I respect you!" After speaking, Gaozong had already done it first.
"Emperor Xie!" Wu Meiniang hurriedly did it, the smile on her face was three points more beautiful than the peach blossom, and she looked at Gaozong again.
"The queen is really beautiful, I like it!" After speaking, Gaozong couldn't help but kiss Wu Meiniang.
"The children are here, Your Majesty, be reserved, don't teach the children badly!" Although Wu Meiniang is full of charm, she never forgets to be measured.
"Ah, ah, I'm rude, haha, don't blame the emperors!" Gaozong's face turned red.
Xiao Han looked at it, and couldn't help but feel cold: No wonder, Wu Meiniang can easily control the government, he is really unbearable, perhaps, Taizong Li Shimin was really blind at the beginning!
What he thought in his heart, but it was not appropriate to express it, Xiao Han actually raised his glass and said: "Men love women, human nature, come, Taiping, let's respect the father and the queen mother together, I wish them a long life and a hundred years old, haha, grow old together!"
"Yes, Brother Han, Taiping also wishes you a long life and a hundred years old, haha, grow old together!" Princess Taiping hurriedly raised her glass.
Gaozong Li Zhi and Empress Wu Meiniang were really happy, and they were so happy that they drank another cup.
"Alas, it's better for Xiao Han, he and our Taiping are sensible, unlike those brothers of theirs, who don't know where to mess around all day long, maybe, they are really too busy; haha, don't talk about them, come, the queen mother toasts you two with a glass!" Wu Meiniang was in a good mood at this time.
"Thank you, mother!" the two hurriedly thanked each other and drank it all again.
"Yes, they are too busy, what are they busy with? Alas, Xiaohan, look at them, you are their master, maybe they will listen to your words, alas, these children, grown up, one is smarter than the other, and one is more worry-free than the other!" Gaozong said again, his eyebrows locked.
"Yes, father, the child will do his best, and the child will promise to take care of them so that they will not have any accidents!" Xiao Hanyan said insincerely.
"Well, okay, with Han'er's words, I'm relieved, haha, Datang will be stable, you guys hurry up and eat, after a while, we have to go to see the lanterns;
"Yes, don't worry, father, we have already said it, Qin Xiaozi will be the guard, Xue Xiaozi will be the guard of the whole city, who dares to be presumptuous?
"Okay, with the emperor here, my father is much more at ease, queen, for a while, remember to call me on time, I have to go and rest for a while, you eat slowly!" After speaking, Gaozong got up and went to bed.
"My father's body is getting worse day by day, alas, what can I do about this?" Princess Taiping said unconsciously.
"Emperor, what are you talking nonsense? Palm, forget it, just be ignorant, remember, this kind of thing is absolutely unspeakable; fortunately, Xiaohan is your imperial brother, hum, otherwise, you will be **annoyed!" Wu Meiniang suddenly became serious.
Perhaps, this is the biggest taboo in the palace, including Princess Taiping, no one dares to talk nonsense!
"Don't worry, the queen mother, this is an obvious thing, but I don't know what the queen mother has planned? Can you say it bluntly? lest we be caught off guard when we get it!" Xiao Han said even more bluntly.
"Ah, Xiao Han, why are you so bold?" Wu Meiniang's eyes were as sharp as an eagle.
"This is a fact, not admitting the reality is the saddest, so, Queen Mother, you'd better explain your words, we can cooperate, I think, Taiping and I will not have any objections, anything, we support you!" Xiao Han was even more resolute.
"Really, anything?" Wu Meiniang's eyes lit up.
"Yes, anything, including the queen mother, it doesn't matter if she wants to ascend the throne!" Xiao Han's eyes were more like swords.
"Huh?" Wu Meiniang's eyes seemed to be about to fall, but Xiao Han's face turned out to be sincere, without any fakeness! But she was obviously caught off guard: he was too direct!
"Queen Mother, I salute you, to be honest, if Datang loses you, can this country be maintained until now? Forget it, don't lie to yourself, what kind of person your father is, don't you know?" Xiao Han poured beans into the bamboo tube again.
"Xiao Han, don't say it, I understand what you mean, haha, stop here, Taiping, let's have a drink together, thank you Brother Han together!" Wu Meiniang's eyes were as hot as fire: I didn't expect this kid to be so knowledgeable, haha, all the ideas are purely superfluous, maybe, he is his best help?
"Alas, Xiao Han, how nice would it be if you were my son?" Wu Meiniang's eyes suddenly fell lonely again.
"Queen Mother, am I not your son? It's just better not to make it public, isn't it?" Xiao Han's eyes were as clear as water.
"Okay, Xiaohan, it's enough to have your words, you are my bosom friend!" Wu Meiniang's eyes actually flowed with spring water.
Hearing this, Princess Taiping's heart trembled, and at the same time, an indescribable emotion stirred in her heart again, and she unconsciously snuggled tightly in Xiao Han's arms!
The storm is really coming!
