In the Tai Chi Palace, Li Shimin looked at Li Lizhi with great satisfaction.
He was very relaxed today.
"Li Zhi, you have done me a great favor! I, the General of the Tang Dynasty, have gained another powerful general! The people of the Tang Dynasty will remember you!"
he said.
But Li Lizhi said: "Father, Li Lizhi doesn't want people to remember me because I just pursue my own happiness. I just want to be able to live happily and no longer be influenced by others in my life!"
In Li Lizhi's opinion, because of this incident, the two of them just got what they needed.
Speaking of the person who controls her life, isn't it Li Shimin?
When he married someone else, no one asked him for his opinion.
Saying this made Li Shimin a little embarrassed. What happened at that time was still vivid in his mind.
As for when Li Lizhi refused to marry Changsun Chong, she also resisted, but Li Shimin didn't listen.
Now, Changsun Chong is also dead, and Li Lizhi has also fallen in love with her sweetheart.
At the same time, Li Shimin can also get help from Xue Rengui.
As long as there is one consort, from now on, Xue Rengui will be a member of the imperial court and Li Shimin.
This is more useful than asking Xue Rengui to join us.
Queen Changsun didn't take it seriously.
"Your Majesty, if you did this, if Li Min hadn't been present, Xue Rengui would have died on the spot and almost harmed him! You don't have to be very smart to do this! You might even harm him!"
She somewhat blamed Li Shimin.
This can't be done like this! Too risky.
Li Shimin thought so.
"I thought that Li Min would not watch Xue Rengui die. This time, I finally defeated him! Hahaha, I finally won!"
Li Shimin said quite proudly.
How could there be such a person? Li Min had never regarded him as an opponent, but he had always been resentful that he could be so stingy as an emperor.
During this period, every time Li Shimin fought against Li Min, he was defeated.
Moreover, several ministers abandoned him and went to Li Min.
This time, he finally had the chance to get Xue Rengui from Li Min. He is a great general!
He licked his lips and smiled.
In my mind, I had some thoughts.
Then Ji Ruxue will be next, right?
If Ji Ruxue is taken down again, it will be even more perfect.
Little did he know that even if he got Xue Rengui's body, he wouldn't get his loyalty.
After all, he had sworn to be loyal to only Li Min in his life. Make sure Li Min comes first in everything!
At the same time, this time, he only agreed with Li Min's approval.
And Ji Ruxue is a strong woman, how could she do what he wants?
If she really wanted to get what he wanted, she would have agreed long ago when they were at the hot spring resort. Still have to wait until this time? Simply thinking too much!
In the end, Li Shimin will be defeated by Li Min alone.
"Your Majesty, I always feel that this time is very disgraceful! It's really uncomfortable to use the princess' innocence to... do such a thing!"
Queen Changsun is finally a sensible person. I have always opposed doing this!
In fact, rather than Li Shimin waking up Li Lizhi, it would be better to say that Li Lizhi and Xue Rengui started a fierce fire and caught fire at one point!
Who would do stupid things with the help of alcohol if it wasn't for love and intention? After all, the consequences are serious!
"Okay, Queen, don't talk about it anymore. Every time he plots against me, he is glorious. Take the telescope as an example. This guy actually wants to charge me ten thousand taels a piece! It's better to rob! If it weren't for the big Tang, I will not agree to that! And the same goes for that floor-to-ceiling glass!"
Even though she said that, there were still some things that Queen Changsun had to say.
"Your Majesty, I've checked this telescope. It's true that Min'er spent a lot of money. It's as big as the Shengtang Group, and now has 50,000 employees. It costs a lot of money every day. Just After a month, the salary alone will be in the millions. This is all money! And research costs money, manufacturing costs money, everything costs money! It’s been so long since Liuli’s incident, and there’s nothing more to say about it. It’s necessary.”
Queen Changsun's words left Li Shimin speechless.
In this way, he is a villain.
Li Min is not a philanthropist and will not provide telescopes for free.
If he is still in the palace, it is still possible.
It's a pity that he is not a prince now, but a businessman. The businessman's job is to make money, so he can make Li Shimin's money.
Li Shimin listened to Empress Changsun's words and remained silent.
But then he thought about it and realized that everything he did was for his country.
This was for the sake of justice, so he felt much more comfortable all of a sudden.
Finally, he said:
"State affairs come first, then family affairs! Put state affairs first in everything. After I win Xue Rengui, the foundation of the Tang Dynasty will be more stable! Do you know? After a while, Gan'er will also go on an expedition, and Li Jing will be asked to go to war. , if there are still people coming to invade the border, how many people can I use? If Xue Rengui joins and goes out as the consort, it will be as if I are here in person, then he will be victorious in every battle, and Xue Rengui learned a lot from Li Min, It would be a shame not to use it!"
What Li Shimin said seems to be right.
It turned out that he and Li Min were helping each other collect intelligence.
The information in the Shengtang Group was also known to Li Shimin.
At the same time, Li Min also knew everything in the palace.
The two plotted against each other.
This time, Li Shimin got Xue Rengui, and he didn't know whether it was good or bad.
Queen Changsun has something else to say.
But Li Shimin said: "Okay, don't talk about it! Let the ministers enter the palace and choose a good day. I will grant you a marriage! Let them choose a day to get married! I have fulfilled my wish!"
Li Lizhi was overjoyed.
"Thank you, Father!"
She finally found the person she liked.
Although the means were somewhat bad, she was still happy.
Queen Changsun was helpless.
She couldn't speak to Li Shimin.
"It's better to go to court directly and order the ministers to enter the palace!"
Li Shimin said suddenly.
He is striking while the iron is hot.
Then, a eunuch came down to deliver the message.
…
Half an hour later, Li Shimin announced that he would go to court!
At this time, he was sitting on the dragon throne.
Look at the civil and military officials below.
As for Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi, they were watching everything upwards somewhere on the side.
After all the civil and military officials saluted.
Li Shimin said: "I have a great news to announce today!"
His expression was soothing and quite excited.
The ministers were curious. Since the last wedding of the princess, there had been no big happy events, but today there was a big happy event to be announced.
Wei Zheng asked: "What is your Majesty's happy event?"
Li Shimin said: "The princess is not young now, and she wants to find someone to marry, so I want to give the princess a marriage! Let her be happy!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Some people were lost because of the princess incident before.
Especially Changsun Chong, who was supposed to be the consort, died like this.
At this time, Wei Zheng asked again: "Your Majesty, which princess is she? Which young master do you want to marry?"
Others said: "Whose young master is so lucky to get a marriage from His Majesty!"
Everyone looked at each other. Among the descendants of civil and military officials, there were twenty or thirty people who were of marriageable age.
It seems like everyone has a chance.
I don’t know who has such good luck to win Li Shimin’s favor.
"I want to marry Xue Rengui with beauty!"
When Li Shimin said this, everyone was shocked.
In this way, no one has a chance.
Everyone is curious, why did Li Shimin marry the princess to Xue Rengui?
Cheng Yaojin and others understood it very well.
Why?
Because he was entrusted by Li Shimin to recruit Xue Rengui but failed.
This time, Li Shimin thought of this method, which was really amazing.
Someone also asked: "Who is Xue Rengui? Who is he? Why haven't I heard of this person!"
More and more people are raising doubts, yes, who is he and why is he favored by Li Shimin?
Cheng Yaojin said: "In the prosperous Tang Group, Xue Rengui, the guard of the Sixth Prince, has superb martial arts. It is not a problem to fight one against a hundred! If he can become the consort, it will be the great fortune of the Tang Dynasty!"
Fang Xuanling also said: "Yes, that Xue Rengui is very powerful and upright! He is a perfect match for Princess Changle! It would be great for Princess Changle to marry him."
At this time, someone stood up.
When everyone saw it, it turned out to be Hou Junji.
"Your Majesty, what kind of existence is Xue Rengui? We don't know! No one will review it! Are you too hasty in granting a marriage like this?"
It's Hou Junji again.
Li Shimin disliked him very much.
Since the last time he committed perjury, Li Shimin has hated him very much.
"Hou Junji, are you questioning my judgment?"
Li Shimin suddenly said angrily.
"No! Your Majesty, I think that Xue Rengui is a member of the Sixth Prince. This kind of person should be carefully scrutinized and cannot be directly granted marriage. And who is he? He is just a commoner. In terms of qualifications, he is not as good as any of the ministers. Young Master, even Chu Mo from the Cheng family is more suitable than him. Why not marry Cheng Chumo?"
Hou Junji is very good at talking.
After saying this, Cheng Yaojin, who was about to quarrel with him, became quiet.
It would be a good thing if Cheng Chumo could become the consort.
Hou Junji hasn't finished speaking yet.
Then he added: "Fang Yiai, the eldest son of the Fang family, is also a good choice! Wei Zheng's son Wei Shuyu is also born with a good skin!"
Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng also shut up.
After all, if something like this happens, if your child becomes the prince-in-law, wouldn’t that mean you’re taking off?
All of Hou Jun's tricks are very useful.
After all, everyone has selfish motives.
But when they met the ministers who had no sons, they also sided with Li Min.
Someone said: "Xue Rengui, who can serve in the Shengtang Group, must have a high status! He must have some advanced things from the Sixth Prince. If he becomes the consort, he will definitely be able to use it for me. Then our court will be more powerful. also!"
Someone else said: "I also agree with your Majesty."
Of course, some people disagreed and expressed their opinions.
At this time, Cheng Yaojin and others collectively made a mistake.
But no matter what they do, Li Shimin will not change his mind.
After finally using Princess Changle's card and having paid so much, how could she be influenced by the ministers?
Hou Junji said straightly: "Your Majesty, think twice! Don't act rashly!"
As soon as this guy's words came out, Li Lizhi, who was in the dark, was very unhappy.
Marry yourself, why do these people talk so much nonsense?
It's not about marrying them, so why are they anxious?
She wanted to go out and scold these people, but Queen Changsun stopped her.
And motioned her not to worry.
Li Shimin is there for everything, so there is no need to worry.
Finally, Li Lizhi endured it.
But she would have a lot of complaints about this guy.
At the same time, he murmured: "Uncle Cheng, why don't they talk anymore? Don't they have a good relationship with Sixth Brother? What's going on with them? Why don't they talk anymore!"
Queen Changsun also thought about this.
It's probably hard for them to say anything.
Or maybe you don’t want Xue Rengui to be the consort? Is it for Li Min? Or for yourself.
I'm afraid only they themselves know all this.
What Hou Junji said made Li Shimin very unhappy.
"Hou Junji, do you think I am reckless?"
Hou Junji said he didn't dare.
"I don't dare, I just..."
"Don't you dare? Hou Junji, you are getting more and more courageous! I thought about letting Xue Rengui be my consort for a long time, and the queen agreed. From the perspective of parents, Li Zhi is our child, who do we want to marry? , whoever you want to marry! From the perspective of the country, Xue Rengui is a talent. Even if he is not good now, he is still a famous general, and his status is not a problem. Also, what do you mean by stopping me all the time? Do you think I am Didn't you do well? Do you want to make this decision on my behalf?"
What Li Shimin said made Hou Junji startled.
Kneel down hastily.
"Your Majesty, I don't think that way! I won't think that way either."
If yes, then Hou Junji may not have to live anymore.
Li Shimin is really terrible.
"Okay, that's it. I'm announcing this today, not asking for your opinions. I asked you to come here to let you know about this, and to set a good day for you. The two are getting married!"
As soon as Li Shimin's words came out, everyone's wishes were shattered.
Everyone's objections are invalid.
Then there is only recognition.
Now it is impossible for his own child to be Li Shimin's son-in-law.
So, everyone also started talking.
Especially Cheng Yaojin and others.
Li Shimin also knew what these people were thinking.
After all, who doesn’t love such glory and wealth?
At this time, Cheng Yaojin stood up.
"Zhijie, do you also want to object?"
Li Shimin asked back.
"No, no, no, I didn't mean that. I just have a question to ask."
"Say it!"
"Xue Rengui's former subjects also found him, and he flatly refused to enter the court. Now, His Majesty has suddenly granted a marriage. If he refuses to agree and deals with it with a tough attitude, it will be detrimental to the majesty of the court and His Majesty's reputation. Wei also!"
Li Shimin smiled and said: "Just because you can't do it doesn't mean that I can't do it, and Xue Rengui will definitely accept my decree! If you don't believe me, just take a look!"
Cheng Yaojin didn't believe Li Shimin's confidence.
He knows Xue Rengui.
I also know that his temper is like this, and it is impossible to make him change his mind.
Or if he really agreed, what about Li Min?
"Okay, everyone, stop talking. I'm not here to talk about this today, but to let you figure out which one is best in the following days!"
His words made everyone quiet down.
Some people started to make calculations.
Li Chunfeng came out at this time and said: "Your Majesty, I have been observing the sky recently and saw that the general star in the east is very bright, and it can shine with the moon."
Li Shimin was very happy when he heard this.
Is there a general appearing? Isn't that Xue Rengui?
The moon is Princess Changle. If the stars and the moon shine together, that is good.
I'm afraid there is no better meaning than this.
This time there will be no mistakes.
"Li Chunfeng, what do you have in mind?"
Li Chunfeng hurriedly stepped forward and said:
"I thought that we could choose to get married on the fifteenth day of the next month. At that time, it is the time when the stars appear again. It is also the day when the moon is bright! The stars and the moon shine brightly to accompany the saint!"
Li Chunfeng is very good at talking.
Just listening to what he said made everyone else excited, let alone Li Shimin?
There was also Li Lizhi in the dark, she was also very happy.
In this way, I will get married in less than a month.
And still marry the man you like.
No matter what, I feel a little excited in my heart.
"Okay, then we will get married on December 15th, and then we will have a general amnesty!"
Li Shimin preached.
This is probably the year sinners love most.
In this year alone, there were two amnesties.
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
The ministers and others shouted.
At this time, Queen Changsun looked at Li Lizhi, and she felt a little relieved.
As a result, the marriage between Li Lizhi and Xue Rengui is delayed.
Hope nothing goes wrong this time.
What happened last time makes Queen Changsun still a little scared.
It shouldn’t happen this time, right?
It is gratifying to see that your son can be happy.
"Fang Xuanling! Pass on my decree and go to the Shengtang Group to inform Xue Rengui and let him prepare! It should be handled, and you have to handle it well, you know?"
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
Then the crowd left the palace.
Many people are saying that this time, if Xue Rengui marries Princess Changle, Li Min will definitely do something special, which is interesting now.
"Mother, I would like to share this joyful news with Xue Rengui..."
"Don't even think about it, just stay in the palace and don't want to go anywhere! Until the fifteenth of next month!"
Queen Changsun said with a straight face.
This time it was also because she didn't pay close attention that something went wrong.
Don't make any mistakes next time.
"Mother, I promise there will be no problem, just let me out!"
"No! Just stay in the palace! This cannot be changed!"
Li Lizhi pouted, feeling very aggrieved.
"All right……"
"You kid!"
Queen Changsun sighed and then withdrew.
…
At this time, a group of troops came from outside the Shengtang Group.
When they arrived, they attracted a lot of attention.
It also attracted the attention of the Wang family.
Changsun Wuji also appeared outside the Shengtang Group at the same time.
His eyes were fixed on everything in front of him.
But Fang Xuanling was seen walking towards the Shengtang Group with the imperial edict in her hand.
The people were talking a lot, saying that the court had a lot of time to come.
What are you here for this time?
Someone recognized this army as the Royal Guards.
Generally speaking, the royal guards will not come out.
Could it be that something happened?
Looking at the army, there are still eunuchs present. Those eunuchs seem to be holding plates and a lot of burdens in their hands.
This is how the same thing?
The common people don't know what they are.
But Changsun Wuji understood very well.
Those are the clothes of the consort.
There are also some things given by the emperor.
There were quite a few in his family at that time.
It's a pity that he failed to marry Li Lizhi again, so Changsun Chong...
Changsun Wuji's eyes turned red when he thought of this.
In fact, Changsun Chong sought death by himself, and it was not Li Min who killed him.
But Changsun Wuji was unhappy with Li Min.
Because he ruined Chang Sun Chong's marriage. If not, this consort still belonged to Chang Sun Chong. If not, they wouldn't have to go to Shandong to control the floods, and Chang Sun Chong might not have died!
When he thought of this, Changsun Wuji clenched his hands tightly.
He is unwilling!
And standing next to him was Wang Yang.
"Changsun Wuji, I think there must be someone in the Shengtang Group who wants a prince-in-law, right?"
Wang Yang's eyes were vicious.
This is also because he has many relatives who are officials in the court, and there is also a royal concubine in the palace.
Naturally, he knew everything about the palace.
So, when he saw that set of clothes, he understood everything.
"snort!"
Changsun Wuji snorted angrily.
"This prince-in-law originally belonged to your child, what a pity!"
"Wang Yang, stop talking!"
"I'm here to remind you that if you want revenge, you have to defeat Zili. You'd better research the ingredients of the fireworks. If we can succeed, we will take back everything we lost before! "
"You don't need to say this, I know that the progress has reached an important level! I will naturally complete it!"
Changsun Wuji said this.
They also conducted research on the fireworks, and not to mention, they really came up with something.
But it was just a small fight.
It is simply impossible to be like Li Min.
"That's the best! For you, I spent a lot of money to get ten boxes of fireworks from other people. Don't let people down!"
"This matter was not that troublesome in the first place. Hou Junji did everything! If it weren't for him, we wouldn't be like this!"
"Is that guy related to Zili?"
Wang Yang suddenly asked.
This question shocked Changsun Wuji.
"It's not impossible. He disappeared for a while that day... Maybe it's what you said. Otherwise, who would be stupid enough to raise the price? It must be him! This old man is so angry with me!"
It seemed that the two of them had been led astray.
"Look, if necessary, I will have someone remove it..."
Wang Yang made a killing move.
"Let's talk if necessary!"
"You can see for yourself, you can do it at any time! I will send someone to do it, and it will be very clean. It is best to put the blame on him, you know!"
"Nature is good!"
The two looked at each other and smiled while they were talking.
Fang Xuanling had already dismounted.
"The imperial edict has arrived! Shengtang Group accepts the edict!"
he yelled.
