"For your information, Your Majesty, I am confident that I have the ability to successfully manage the land of Liaodong. What I need is the Emperor's decree. Other problems such as manpower and material resources, I have my own way to solve."
After Li Shimin heard Qin Wenyuan's confirmed words, he pondered for a moment and nodded before speaking again.
"Let me think about this matter for a day. Apart from this, don't you have anything else to say to me? I heard that you are planning to jointly mine minerals with the Silla Royal Court. The profits from this, my dear, are
I don’t want to give some to the imperial court!”
"Your Majesty! This is my private matter and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the court, but..."
"But what? You have something else to say, don't hesitate in front of me."
"Your Majesty, I have some private matters that I would like to discuss with the Emperor. Of course, this private matter must be agreed between you and the Queen, otherwise it will be useless even if I say it."
"Hey! Is there anything else you need the queen to agree to? Please tell me and let me hear it."
"Then the emperor must not be angry after hearing this. This boy is sincere. I hope the emperor and the empress will agree."
After listening to the conversation between Qin Wenyuan and the emperor, Li Xiuning and Empress Changsun probably already knew what Qin Wenyuan was going to say next. Neither of them expected that this boy was so brave and dared to propose marriage to them in front of the emperor. Li Xiuning covered her mouth in surprise.
Watch with interest how this kid will speak.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! That boy... I want the Emperor and Your Majesty to... betroth Princess Xiangcheng... to this boy as my wife. I don't know what the Emperor and Your Majesty think... you think!"
"I can't beat you to death, you little brat, how dare you take a chance on my beloved daughter..."
As he spoke, Li Shimin got up from the dragon couch and kicked Qin Wenyuan with his feet. Qin Wenyuan quickly got up to avoid Li Shimin and continued speaking far away from Li Shimin.
"Your Majesty! Just agree to my request. I promise that the princess will marry my queen, Fu Yongheng, and live a happy life. She will definitely have a happier life than in the emperor's palace..."
Listening to the boy's nonsense, Li Shimin was so angry that he snatched the whisk in the eunuch's hand and chased the boy. For a moment, Qin Wenyuan was hiding in front of the palace, and Li Shimin was panting from behind and chased him until the little boy was beaten.
Clapping her little hands and laughing loudly.
Seeing the funny looks of Qin Wenyuan and Li Shimin, Li Xiuning also burst into laughter and spoke breathlessly.
"Erlang, don't chase this kid anymore. Let me ask my sister what he thinks."
Li Shimin leaned against the pillar in the hall, panting and looking at Qin Wenyuan hatefully. Qin Wenyuan held his future father-in-law in front of his face and said with a smile, enduring the danger of being whipped.
"You can hit me as often as you want. As long as you betroth Xiangcheng to me, it doesn't matter if you beat me a few more times. Isn't this me always discussing with you? It's not good if you get so angry and hurt your body."
Li Shimin picked up the whisk and whipped Qin Wenyuan hard, but after hearing the "crack" sound, he saw Qin Wenyuan still standing in front of him with a smile. Li Shimin didn't know that this kid was very skilled in martial arts, and these few strokes were enough to scratch his itch.
Feeling that the force was too weak, he dropped the whisk and sighed softly.
"That's it, that's all. I'll leave the matter of Guanyin's spleen to you. I can't do anything with this thick-skinned boy!"
In fact, Li Shimin thought that it would be good for his daughter to marry this boy. At least he would ask this boy to do whatever he wanted in the future. Wouldn't it correct the Great Light? But thinking that it was so easy, the boy finally felt a little unhappy.
Li Shimin sat back on the dragon couch and kept breathing. Li Xiuning spoke first without waiting for Empress Changsun to say.
"Xiaotian, do you really want to marry Xiangcheng? It's not a temporary impulse or you have other ideas!"
"Auntie! Do you think I'm the kind of person who is impulsive and has other ideas? If I like someone, I just like it. Others don't care as they don't need it. With my own abilities, I'm not bragging. What a family.
Even a young professional can make money, I should trust him in this."
"Well! I do believe that you have this ability, but I can't help you with this matter. You have to beg the Queen more often for this important matter for your children."
After hearing what Li Xiuning said, Qin Wenyuan knew that the eldest princess was giving him advice, so he said respectfully to the eldest queen.
"The Queen! I sincerely ask the Queen to make the decision to marry Princess Xiangcheng to me as my wife. I also ask the Queen to make this happen."
"Hmph! You kid has a good idea. Why should I give you the daughter I raised with great difficulty? If you want to ask to marry my daughter, then it depends on whether your kid has the ability."
Hearing what Empress Changsun said, Qin Wenyuan felt that something was going on and immediately responded.
"Please give me your advice, what can I do to marry Xiangcheng?"
When Empress Changsun saw that her husband had left the matter to her, how could the husband and wife not know Li Shimin's inner thoughts? It was just that she had to be a woman to talk about things that were difficult for her husband to say.
Looking at the boy in front of her, Queen Changsun thought for a while and then said seriously.
"If you want me to betroth Xiangcheng to you, it is not a non-negotiable matter. I will give you two choices. You only need to do one of them, that is, either let your father hand over the management of Licheng, Qizhou.
If you want to rule the country and come to Chang'an City to become a prince, or you can build another state city like Qizhou for the imperial court, think about it carefully."
"His!"
Hearing what Empress Changsun said, Qin Wenyuan took a breath of cold air into his mouth and couldn't help but think to himself.
"These old ladies have such a strong tone...!"
After pondering for a few breaths, Qin Wenyuan also spoke seriously.
"Your Majesty! I think Qizhou is the kingdom of the Tang Dynasty. Is there anyone in the court who can manage that place better than my father? If I don't mention this, I think the emperor and your Majesty both know it. For the sake of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and the world
For the welfare of the people, I can promise my empress to create a prosperous place like Qizhou for the Tang Dynasty, but I am unwilling to take this as a condition for marrying Xiangcheng. That is my ideal in my heart, and I want to marry Princess Xiangcheng.
It's because the admiration for her in the boy's heart is mixed with utilitarianism. Aren't he the same as those who want to get some benefits from the royal family? This is shameless of the boy. The boy thinks he likes someone.
The most important thing is the pure love in the heart and not anything else. Only in this way can the two of them enjoy true happiness in life."

Li Xiuning next to her couldn't help but cheer loudly after hearing Qin Wenyuan's words.
Empress Changsun looked at Qin Wenyuan with a complicated look. She was also touched by the boy's words. If it weren't for the grievances of the aristocratic families and the various forces fighting for power in the court, no matter where this boy came from,
It is said that it is much better than those so-called aristocratic families and noble children. For a daughter to find a husband who likes her so much and to be able to escape from the royal family's ungrateful environment is undoubtedly a guarantee of lifelong happiness. As a mother, the eldest grandson Queen will be happy no matter what.
I hope my children can live a happy life.
"What good do you want me to say about you? No matter you are for Changle or your ideals, remember what you said in the palace today and show your true ability to create another Qizhou for the Qianqiu of the Tang Dynasty."
With the help of your merits, I will agree to betroth Xiangcheng to you, but it is not possible now, I will have to see your sincerity before I say anything."
"Okay! As long as the emperor can give me a place, I will agree to the empress's conditions. In one year, I will come to Chang'an City to marry Chang Le."
After listening to what Empress Changsun said, Qin Wenyuan spoke boldly. He was confident about the place that made him passionate. Within a year, he first went to Pingzhou, a place called Longcheng County, with the strength and strength of the Qin family army.
It is still possible for the Turks under their control to develop commerce and people's livelihood and other matters, but as for the control of the entire Liaodong area, it needs to be taken care of slowly.
Li Shimin, who had been watching Empress Changsun talking to Qin Wenyuan, already had the idea in his mind whether to hand over the area in Liaodong to this guy. This actually had many benefits for the court. First of all, the court
There is no need to send out soldiers, money, food, etc. Secondly, the endless methods of this boy are not something that the minister in the court can do.
Li Shimin is not unaware of the complexity of the situation in that vast area, but it is just that with the current strength of the Tang Dynasty, it is still impossible to fully control Liaodong, unless the Tang Dynasty abandons other places to fully manage the strategy, but this will not be worth the gain, and if it is to
Qin Wenyuan's placement in that place may have unexpected effects.
In the Li Zheng Palace, after discussing business matters with the emperor and discussing private matters, Qin Wenyuan and the eldest princess Li Xiuning talked about the scene after their farewell and promised the little princess Douzi to give her a novel gift when she comes next time before leaving the palace.
, before leaving, Li Shimin told Qin Wenyuan to wait in Chang'an City for the next few days to wait for the court's decree to see how matters in Liaodong would be decided. However, Queen Changsun intentionally or unintentionally asked Qin Wenyuan to visit Princess Changle when he left Chang'an.
From the time Qin Wenyuan asked to marry Changle, Empress Changsun looked at Qin Wenyuan in a somewhat different way. There is a folk saying: "The mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she looks at her, the happier she becomes." This saying actually applies to the royal family as well.
…
After hearing the news that her sister Douzi told her that Qin Wenyuan proposed marriage to her father and mother in the palace, Princess Xiangcheng finally relaxed after learning that her father and mother had no objections to her marriage to Qin Wenyuan.
Conditions, she believed that her lover would be able to achieve it.
The only thing that makes this little girl unhappy now is secretly complaining that that idiot didn't know why he didn't come to see her...
Little did she know that the idiot in her heart was back at home, thinking about what gift to give her as a token of love.

The gift given to Murphy at that time was a spear to seal a good match. He couldn't give Chang Le a big knife, Xu Tian thought as he sat on the chair.
Why is there no movement at all in the advanced area of the system? Could it be that I really have to be twenty-five years old or above to open it? It shouldn’t be! Didn’t the first two times I opened the system be in advance? Isn’t it because of my title?
What if the cultivation level is not enough and cannot be opened in advance?
Qin Wenyuan murmured to himself as he thought about his thoughts. He wanted to see what kind of strange things there were in the advanced area of the system so that he could select them and give them to Changle. Now, I'm afraid he could only search in the existing warehouses.
.
Deepening his consciousness into the system, Qin Wenyuan began to search according to the index of the warehouse.
"Food, no, the food and clothes don't seem to have any commemorative significance. Weapons can't be given to this girl. If her shameless father knew about this, wouldn't he force me to equip him with an army?
How about giving her an instrument! Xiangcheng, Xiangcheng, yes, give her an instrument. But I can only play the guitar, and I don’t know how to use the others. How about a guitar? By the way, I can also play it in front of her.
You can show off!"
While Qin Wenyuan was searching, Bian Ru kept thinking. Finally, he fell in love with a simple-looking guitar. Thinking that he could put on a show in front of Xiangcheng, the corner of his mouth finally curled up, making people feel...
What a mean smile.
Qin Wenyuan closed his eyes and contemplated the scene where he was showing off, but he didn't know when Murphy came into the room and stood beside him, looking at his unbridled smile.
"Humph! My husband is thinking of something good in broad daylight. Can you tell me and tell me..."
Murphy bit Qin Wenyuan's ear and said softly. Even this soft voice made the boy stand up and talk with a guilty conscience.
"My husband is not thinking about anything! Hehe, I am not thinking about anything."
"Hmph! Don't think that I don't know the good things you have in mind. I must have seen Sister Xiangcheng having bad thoughts when I came back from the palace, you stinky man..."
"Boy? What are you doing in the house with the door closed in broad daylight? Why don't you come out to see me and my brothers?"
Listening to this voice, Qin Wenyuan knew that it was Cheng Chumo, the idiot. The hatred in his heart surged up in his heart like a surging river, and he wished he could grab Cheng Dashao and violently relieve his anger.
Qin Wenyuan endured his anger, packed up his wrinkled clothes, opened the door and said angrily to Cheng Chumo.
"Why did you come to the backyard without being informed? You are really becoming more and more ignorant of the rules!"
But it turned out that it was Cheng Chumo who took advantage of the servants in the mansion to invite the brothers into the mansion and before he had time to report to the young master, the servants sneaked into the backyard and screamed loudly and violently.
"Hey! Did I disturb your good things...?"
"roll!"
Qin Wenyuan yelled at this guy angrily. He knew that if he was serious about the Cheng family and his son, he would be angry half to death.
Pulling Cheng Chumo to the front yard, Qin Wen saw that Qin Huaiyu, Yuchi Baolin, Luo Shiyi, Fang Yiai and his brother-in-law Chai Shaowu had made an appointment to visit. Thinking that everyone else knew the rules and drank tea in the front yard, he did not hesitate to do so.
You don't have to worry about seeing something you shouldn't see when you wander around the mansion. This kid is really stupid.
After Qin Wenyuan and his brothers greeted each other for a while, he told the young man who was afraid of being scolded by his master because of Cheng Chumo's intrusion to stop thinking and go to the kitchen to prepare the dishes. It was better to choose the day today than to hit it. He was about to invite someone from Chang'an City.
Friends were having a banquet at the house, but unexpectedly these people came to the house first, which saved them the trouble of sending people from house to house to invite them.
