In Chang'an City, a piece of news quickly spread among many dignitaries.
Your Majesty and the Queen must choose a marriage for Prince Li Yuanxiu.
That means choosing a princess!
As soon as this news came out, all the dignitaries in Chang'an became excited.
This is a good opportunity that must be seized tightly.
Once a daughter of one's own family can become a prince, she will rise to the top in one step and become a relative of the emperor.
Ever since.
All dignitaries and dignitaries who had girls of suitable age at home began to make active preparations.
And this news quickly spread to Ye Mansion. ??
"What? You want to choose the crown princess?"
When Ye Qingyun heard the news, he was also very surprised.
Then he glanced at Li Yuanxiu, who was holding a bowl not far away and was eating fried noodles with soybean paste.
This guy is going to have a wife.
"real or fake?"
Ye Qingyun looked at Shen Tianhua with some confusion.
Shen Tianhua smiled and said, "Now it has spread all over Chang'an, and anyone with some status knows about it."
Ye Qingyun nodded.
"Your Highness, stop eating and come here quickly."
He shouted to Li Yuanxiu.
Li Yuanxiu put down the noodle bowl reluctantly and came to Ye Qingyun.
"Master, what's wrong?"
His mouth was still full of dark fried sauce.
Ye Qingyun looked disgusted.
"Wipe your mouth first."
Li Yuanxiu was a little embarrassed and quickly took out his handkerchief and wiped his mouth clean.
"Ahem, there are rumors in Chang'an City that your father, the emperor, and the empress are going to choose a crown princess for you."
"ah?"
When Li Yuanxiu heard this, he was stunned.
Obviously he was also very surprised by the news.
Ye Qingyun chuckled, "You kid, you are going to get married soon. Are you happy or not?"
To his surprise, Li Yuanxiu didn't look happy, but had a complicated expression.
"What's wrong with you? You're not even happy to have a wife?"
Ye Qingyun said dissatisfied.
"Master, I don't want to get married yet."
Li Yuanxiu said weakly.
Ye Qingyun was a little confused, "Why? At your age, it's almost time to get married."
Li Yuanxiu scratched his head.
"I still
I want to focus on learning to govern the country and practicing cultivation, and getting a wife will distract me."
Ye Qingyun was speechless for a while.
"Look at how fat you are, and you are still practicing?"
"Since you came to my place, the total time you spent practicing is less than three days, right?"
“I want to eat it all day long.”
Li Yuanxiu smiled sheepishly.
"I can't help it. Master, the food here is too delicious. I really can't bear it."
Ye Qingyun rolled his eyes.
Is it my fault that the food is delicious?
This unlucky kid.
Three days later, palace guards came to Ye Mansion.
"National Preceptor, Your Highness, Your Majesty has an order for you two to enter the palace."
The guard bowed and said to the two of them.
"Did Father say anything?"
Li Yuanxiu asked.
The guard smiled.
"The villain doesn't know."
But looking at him like that, it was obvious that he knew what was going on, but he just didn't say it on purpose.
"Okay, let's go right away."
Li Yuan practiced Taoism.
"Goodbye, villain."
The guards left.
Ye Qingyun and Li Yuanxiu looked at each other.
"I guess your father should have asked you to choose the crown princess."
Li Yuanxiu couldn't laugh or cry.
He also vaguely felt that this should be the case.
Li Yuanxiu was not very happy, but he never disobeyed his father's arrangements.
The two of them immediately headed to the palace.
When we arrived at the palace, we were already greeted by people.
It was Cao Gao, the great eunuch of the imperial palace.
"National Master, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Your Majesty is waiting in the Jinluan Palace."
When Cao Gao saw the two of them, he quickly bowed and saluted.
"Thank you, Eunuch Cao."
Li Yuanxiu also bowed.
Li Yuanxiu did not dare to be disrespectful to the old eunuch beside his father.
Everyone knows that this old eunuch has been Li Tianmin's confidant for so many years.
Moreover, Li Yuanxiu knew better that this old eunuch was actually the one who truly protected his father.
.
Under the leadership of Cao Gao, the two quickly arrived at the Jinluan Palace.
But there was no one else in the Jinluan Hall, only Emperor Li Tianmin and Empress Changsun.
"Meet your majesty, meet the queen!"
Ye Qingyun bowed and saluted.
"See my father, see my mother!"
Li Yuanxiu also saluted closely.
"Master, please take a seat quickly."
Li Tianmin quickly asked Ye Qingyun to take a seat.
Ye Qingyun was not polite and sat on a chair nearby.
Of course Li Yuanxiu is not qualified to sit.
These are all his elders. If he sits down, wouldn't it mean that he can be on an equal footing with the three of them?
Of course this is not possible.
"National Preceptor, I invite you to come here because I want you to work together to check things for us."
Li Yuanxiu said with a smile.
Ye Qingyun heard this.
Check?
Is it possible that we really have to choose the crown princess today?
Li Yuanxiu was a little surprised when he heard this.
"Father"
Li Tianmin waved his hand directly.
Signaling Li Yuanxiu to shut up.
"National Master, this child Yuan Xiu has reached the age of marriage."
"The queen and I discussed it and decided to finalize Yuan Xiu's marriage while you are still in the Tang Dynasty."
"And I also hope that you can become Yuan Xiu's wedding officiant."
"But I wonder if the Imperial Master is willing?"
Li Tianmin asked very respectfully.
Ye Qingyun was immediately happy when he heard this.
"Of course I do."
Li Tianmin was overjoyed.
"That's good! That's good!"
Li Yuanxiu's face was full of resentment.
"Then let all the women waiting outside come in."
Queen Changsun spoke up.
"good!"
Li Tianmin immediately waved his hand.
Cao Gao at the entrance of the palace immediately shouted, "Enter the palace!"
Soon, a group of people walked in.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
"Meet the Queen!"
"Meet the prince!"
"Meet the Imperial Master!"
Just saluting, these people spent a lot of time
.
After all, the queen, the prince, and the imperial master are here, and everyone must salute.
Don't be lazy.
"No need to pay tribute."
Li Tianmin said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Everyone stood up.
"The girls from each family took a step forward."
I saw three women coming out, all of them a little nervous.
These three women are all young, and the youngest one seems to be less than twenty years old.
But without exception, they all look good.
And at first glance, he is from a wealthy family and has an extraordinary temperament.
Ye Qingyun knew that this must be the crown princess chosen by the emperor and empress for Li Yuanxiu.
Now it's time to take a look at them and choose the one that suits you best.
"National Master, these three women were selected by the Queen and I. Let the National Master take a look at them too."
Li Tianmin said.
Ye Qingyun nodded, "But I don't know which three families she is from?"
"This is Wang Jinyan, the granddaughter of Wang Situ's family. She is twenty-one years old. She is handsome and smart, dignified and decent."
"This is Ge Huier, the niece of Ge Shangshu. She is twenty-two years old and is a famous and talented woman in our Tang Dynasty."
"This is Wang Tingwei's daughter Wang Qiulan. She has just turned eighteen this year and has outstanding appearance."
Cao Gao stood aside and introduced the three women to Ye Qingyun.
Ye Qingyun heard this.
My dear, they are all women from noble families.
Either he is a minister or a court official.
These are all high-ranking officials in the DPRK.
But it's no wonder that if you really want to choose a crown princess, you will definitely not choose a woman with an average net worth.
It must be a good match.
Moreover, women from high-ranking families are indeed better than women from ordinary families in all aspects.
This does not mean that people are high or low, but that women from high-ranking families can receive a better education.
This will make your character, talent, and even appearance more outstanding.
Of course, this is not absolute.
There are girls from ordinary families who are outstanding.
But when choosing a princess, one's birth background is still very, very important.
Therefore, they can only be selected from women from high-ranking families.
"National Master, what do you think of these three women?"
Queen Changsun asked.
