There were only a few people left, except Fang Xuanling who had just left in a hurry.
They are Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui and Wei Zheng.
Then Li Shimin looked at his three humerus in front of him and asked a question.
That is--
The marriage contract between Tang Sufan and his daughter.
Although the marriage contract between Tang Sufan and Princess Yuzhang has been approved by His Majesty, the royal marriage must one day be made public.
In terms of etiquette, there are many levels of attention paid to the marriage of a princess of a country.
The first step must be to announce Princess Yuzhang's marriage in the court.
Needless to say, there will be a lot of noise when the time comes, and all the officials will obstruct it.
Regardless of whether you are interested or not, just how can a poor scholar with no family background be worthy of the princess's remarks? It is enough for some old stubborns to directly attack you in the head.
At the same time, it also means that Tang Sufan, this kid, must stand from behind people and truly stand in front of people this time.
At that time, all the civil and military eyes of the court will be on this boy, and there will be inevitable excitement and trouble.
It's been half a while.
"My dear friends, do you have any solution?"
Looking at the three veterans who had been silent for a long time, Li Shimin couldn't help but raised his eyebrows and urged them.
He also struggled with this matter for a long time.
This boy's temperament has always been idle, and he doesn't like the officialdom.
But if this kid really wants to marry his daughter, he must go through this.
Just be afraid, this kid will cause a lot of trouble, and in the end, he, the emperor's father-in-law, will not be the one to wipe his ass.
But no matter what, the marriage of the two children is imminent and cannot be delayed any longer.
Moreover, this kind of son-in-law is either quick or slow.
Haven't you seen that old man Kong Yingda staring at you all day long?
He has seen Kong Yingda's grandson daughter. She is indeed a beautiful girl, as beautiful as a flower. With this boy's resistance, he cannot delay her any longer.
Du Ruhui glanced at him. There was no one around him. The old boy from Laofang had gone to write his military papers. Now it is difficult to do Tai Chi in front of His Majesty without anyone to cooperate with him. It is difficult.
"Ahem, Your Majesty, we all know that this boy Su Fan is aloof and open-minded, and has a temperament. If the marriage between Princess Yuzhang and Su Fan is announced, it will cause an uproar in the court and attract everyone's attention."
"I'm afraid that by then, those companies... will really target Su Fan, and I'm afraid there will be some trouble."
Du Ruhui raised his eyebrows and said reluctantly.
Nonsense, that’s what you have to say.
Li Shimin was speechless and said in a deep voice.
"This is natural. Now, the Cui family, the Wang family, and the Zheng family have already tested me several times. Moreover, the people behind Datang Bookstore, except for the Taiqing Division that I deliberately set up, want to find out the head of this kid. Yes, it’s just a matter of time.”
"Now, of course, the time has come. Even if this kid wants to be free, he has to pass this test. But now, fortunately, this kid's position as marquis has been established, and the doubts about his identity have been resolved for the time being. I'm afraid those companies will have other submissions by then."
Wine industry, charcoal, new paper.
No matter which business he is in, he has been tested by those companies countless times.
Even if this kid wanted to hide, he wouldn't be able to hide for long.
Moreover, when the princess is getting married, he, the consort, must go to court to thank her. This is the current rule.
Otherwise, not to mention those families, just the group of censors and officials would be able to disturb the emperor's ears with their rules.
In these days, some feudal ideas of etiquette are as solid as stones.
To put it bluntly, the time has come for this kid to be taken out of the Yoyotang.
And the main thing is that Li Shimin deliberately wanted to push this kid.
I am so busy here that my head is spinning all day long, and there are endless problems in the court, but you, a kid, hide outside the city and enjoy yourself all day long. It is really unreasonable.
I have already married my daughter to you, how can you not help me?
On the side, Changsun Wuji lowered his eyelids and said calmly.
"It seems... His Majesty has already thought about the time when Su Fan will ascend to the throne?"
If it was time to announce the engagement, Li Shimin would probably have already thought about it.
He said with a condensed expression: "If the war in Mobei goes well, it will take about a month. I think that when the army returns, I will let this kid come to the court to get married."
The three of them understood that it seemed that His Majesty wanted to announce the engagement in a smooth manner after the war, with merit and rewards.
Although it is logical, the water in this court is not something that can be seen at a glance.
However, this is indeed the best way at the moment.
"Your Majesty, I wonder if Su Fan...is willing?"
At this time, Wei Zheng, who was sitting aside with his eyes, nose, nose and heart in mind, suddenly made a stab.
This made Li Shimin feel a little bit sour and cold, and the corners of his eyebrows twitched.
Even Changsun Wuji and Du Ruhui on one side didn't know what to say.
The atmosphere seems to be suddenly silent...
Old Wei, you are really an expert at last-hitting.
Yes, with this kid's carefree and carefree temperament, wouldn't he have to avoid him like a snake or a scorpion when he heard that he was going to court?
The most speechless part is, will this kid be obedient?
Even if this kid is guilty, Your Majesty can't do anything about this kid, right?
Finally, the three of them looked at Li Shimin with some confusion.
Li Shimin felt a little guilty after being stared at, and his face straightened.
"Hmph, if you want to marry my daughter, how can you not put in some effort? If you are not even willing to face this little trouble, how can I trust Rou'er to him?"
Li Shimin was feigning power and anger when he spoke, but these old men saw through it and refused to say anything.
Oh, Your Majesty, how could you part with such a wonderful son-in-law?
Immediately, Li Shimin stopped worrying about this matter and turned to speak.
"Forget it, I will tell this kid when he comes to the palace this afternoon."
"Oh, Your Majesty? Su Fan is going to the palace today?"
Du Ruhui raised his eyebrows and asked. Who doesn't know that this boy has been acting at his place for so long these days because of His Majesty and his group of old gangs? His nose is not the nose or the eyes.
The only news was that he took the time to go to Chang'an Bookstore and published a famous poem that moved Chang'an, that is, he was locked up in the courtyard.
Is this guy done with his anger?
Li Shimin said with a slight expression on his face.
"Ms. Guanyin's injuries, Divine Doctor Sun said, this kid will have to deal with them in the end."
"Although this boy is angry with us, he values love and righteousness after all. Guanyin and he become siblings. Although it may seem ridiculous to others, Su Fan still cares about Guanyin's injuries. Very."
Speaking of this, the monarch and his ministers couldn't help but smile bitterly, each with their own thoughts.
During this period, people from the palace secretly went to Jinghe Village to obtain daily food supplements.
But this guy only makes enough for one person, and the emperor likes him to see it every day.
Now because of the showdown, it is difficult for this kid to get a meal anywhere. How ridiculous is it that a majestic emperor can have such a greedy day?
But where does this kid get food? This is the only one in the world.
Having said this, Li Shimin sighed.
"It just so happened that the flying cavalry who returned the day before yesterday came to report that the Chamcheng Dao had found his whereabouts. I just wanted to ask this boy."
As soon as these words came out, the three of them were shocked.
Zhancheng Dao, the three of them had heard of it from Tang Sufan.
That is a crop that yields six or seven stones per mu, two or three times that of ordinary crops.
Although this is a product of farming and mulberry farming, it can definitely be called a weapon of a great country and a great treasure of a country!
"Your Majesty, can you find out where this Champa rice is?"
Wei Zheng was the first to react, and he immediately stood up excitedly, grabbing his beard.
His face was excited and his old face was overjoyed.
This kind of crop is a good thing that benefits the country and the people.
Li Shimin also had a somewhat unconcealed look of joy on his face. Ever since Tang Sufan mentioned it, he had followed the map and sent his flying cavalry to the southwest of the Tang Dynasty border to look for it.
It has been almost four months now, and we finally have news.
Li Shimin slowly said: "Fei Qi found out that outside the border of the Tang Dynasty, there was a city named Buluo City. It was called Linyi in ancient times."
"There are indeed crops similar to the Champa rice that Su Fan mentioned."
"It's just that there was no planting in the winter months, but it's probably true. Linyi City has a small population, few countries nearby, and it's far away from the Tang Dynasty, so the people of the Tang Dynasty don't know about the Champa rice."
The population is small and there are few states nearby.
For a moment, the monarch and his ministers looked at each other.
A tacit look of joy appeared on his face subconsciously.
What are you talking about? Just go grab it... Ahem, oh no, just send someone to retrieve it.
Even Wei Zheng has no say at this moment. If he doesn't take it now... Oh no, if he doesn't take it now, then when?
If it can be retrieved before sowing in spring or before the summer solstice, another crop can be planted this year.
How much more food can be given to Datang this winter?
