Princess Nanyang is the eldest daughter of Queen Xiao, and she is still alive today.
It's just that Princess Nanyang met an unkind person and divorced the heartless man from the Yuwen family. Frustrated, she lived in her mother's Xiao family's house, staying indifferent to foreign affairs and concentrating on worshiping Buddha. She definitely didn't care if the house was not a house.
.
Yuwen Yubo asked clearly, but he didn't have any sympathy.
Yang Guang's daughter is her aunt's son according to seniority, and she is somewhat related to her. After all, she was adopted into the Yuwen family.
But it was Yang Guang and Yu Wenshu who killed her family, and the two families became in-laws. They were really in cahoots, and they deserved to suffer a catastrophe.
…………
Li Po didn't know what the Queen of Gaochang in front of her was thinking. She didn't think about the people of Gaochang she had left behind. She was just planning to live in Chang'an for a few years.
If the emperor could make clear arrangements for her, maybe she would not return to Gaochang and would just enjoy the glory and wealth in Chang'an.
…………
"It's thousands of miles west of Gaochang to Chang'an. There must be a lot of dangers along the way, right? I've heard people say that when Yang Guang visited Zhangye to the west, he didn't go to Dunhuang and Shanshan counties. But when he returned, he was still
Encountered a sandstorm and lost many people.
It is said that several princesses were lost and were not found later. This shows how difficult the journey to Hexi was. It is not easy for you to come back from Gaochang or set off in winter."
His voice was deep and his words were clear. While the emperor was speaking, Yuwen Yubo finally raised his head and looked directly at him. In addition to his tall stature, the emperor looked very young, about the same age as her.
Yuwen Yubo said to her heart that it would be better if she were older, and it would be very suitable to have a foster father. Fortunately, she could continue to carry the title of princess on her head.
But as she looked at it, she felt a vague sense of familiarity, which made her feel so good for no reason.
The emperor was very majestic, but he did not have two horns on his head and was covered in scales. He was not much different from the two kings he had seen before. Moreover, she was also the queen of Gaochang. She was also used to being domineering in the Gaochang Kingdom, so she was not
Like other outsiders, they will be so reserved that they feel helpless.
Hearing the emperor talk about Yang Guang, she immediately became energetic, lowered her head and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I was in the Western Inspection Team back then and lost my way, but I was luckier than others and finally found it. Now,
Only then can I see His Majesty’s majesty.”
Li Po was surprised and thought to himself, what a coincidence. He was talking about Yang Guang's joke and bumped into the person involved.
No wonder everyone in Honglu Temple kept a distance from her. I was startled by her as soon as I opened my mouth, let alone others. Most of the others were very secretive when it came to the events of the previous dynasty, but she had no scruples and was very courageous.
"Then you have traveled to Hexi several times. There are not many people like you in the imperial court. I sent people to Dunhuang two years ago, and they all told me when they came back that they narrowly escaped death along the way.
You are able to walk smoothly when you come and go, which shows that you are very blessed."
The few ministers on duty in the palace lowered their heads silently, thinking to themselves that here we go again, His Majesty is always quite tactful when chatting with women...
Yuwen Yubo also laughed as expected, his eyes turning, it seemed quite clear, if Li Yuan were here, he would definitely say, when you saw me, you must have regarded me as a child.
Children come to the lake.
"I'm afraid your Majesty has misunderstood. If I were a lucky person, how could I be driven to Gaochang? In other words, if my life is tougher, I can return to my homeland after many years.
I am fortunate enough to be summoned by His Majesty. It seems that I am indeed getting better, but my well-being is still limited to His Majesty's words."
He seems to be very talkative. It seems that the people at Honglu Temple are becoming less and less attentive. They even start to push back and forth when entertaining people.
"Well, although Gaochang is far away in the Western Region, he has contacts with Central Yuanjuku. The Tang Dynasty was founded just a few years ago. You come to see me from afar. You can tell me what you want."
"If I say so, will your Majesty agree?"
"You always call yourself a minister. Since the minister has something to ask for from the king, the king will naturally have to consider his response, right?"
"Your Majesty is wise, I dare not hide anything. I think your Majesty already knows my life experience. I want to... return to the clan. I wonder if your Majesty will allow it?"
After Li Po heard this, he thought to himself, "You are really rude. Are you going to return to the clan?"
Li Po couldn't help but touch his cheek. Ashina Peony said that he looked a lot like Emperor Wen Yang Jian, but his facial features were exactly the same as those of Empress Wen Wen. Some of the former founders of the emperor did find something strange when they saw him, so it seemed to be true.
Could it be that she also... In a second thought, he rejected this idea. This was the first time they met. He thought that even if this person had met Emperor Wen and his wife, he would not think so much of them.
"Are you from the Li family of Longxi?"
Yuwen Yubo stood up, bowed and said: "My maternal grandmother was a former Sui clan member, and my maternal grandfather was Emperor Xuan of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Even my mother can enjoy half a lifetime of honor.
However, the world has changed. I wanted to marry Gaochang at the age of thirteen. I have been suffering for twenty years. Now I have to return to the Central Plains, but things have changed and I have no worries.
If your majesty shows mercy, I am willing to take the country with me and become a vassal of the Tang Dynasty. I only ask for a title from your majesty so that I can avoid being looked down upon in Chang'an."
Li Po understood immediately that she wanted to be quick and get everything done in one go, but these bastards from Honglu Temple had been hanging around with her for so many days and yet they didn't hear anything from her.
It's no wonder that he always talks about Honglu Temple. Nowadays, there are many foreign envoys coming, and Honglu Temple's process of receiving foreign envoys has gradually become more formal.
If it weren't for Yuwen Yubo's special status, and if the Tang Dynasty's eyes were wandering around the Western Regions, Yuwen Yubo would not have been able to see the emperor easily. If there were any conditions, he could only talk to the people at Honglu Temple. After all, Gaochang Elementary School
Powerful.
Even if I want to be a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, it is still in the lower class, worse than the Three Kingdoms of Shannan. According to the principle of equal reception, the person who speaks to Gaochang will be the young minister of Honglu Temple. Not to mention the emperor, I want to see an official of the third or higher rank of the imperial court.
, and will not be easily received.
In other words, if the Tang Dynasty set up a Protectorate in the Western Regions, most of the kings in the small countries in the Western Regions would only have the same rank as the Governor of the Protectorate.
For the big countries in the Western Regions such as Shule, Khotan, Tochara, etc., they were equivalent to the deputy governors of the Duhu Mansion, and could barely touch the third-rank officials of the Tang Dynasty.
…………
Li Po pondered for a moment, then waved his hand to let her sit down, "I understand how sincere you are. According to your family background, it's all right.
I originally wanted to restore your title as Princess Huarong, but as soon as we met, you posed a problem for me..."
Yuwen Yubo felt relieved. It seemed that the emperor was easy to talk to, but he was a little not forthcoming enough. He raised his head and said with a smile: "Your Majesty rules the world and is rich all over the world. What else can be difficult for your Majesty?"
