According to Li Xiang's idea, he thought he would return to Men'er in three days, but he didn't expect to go there for a visit the next day. It seems that many rules in the Tang Dynasty are still different from those in modern society. Modern society should inherit all the rules from the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
The rules of the time.
Li Chengqian was naturally very satisfied with this daughter-in-law. After drinking this cup of daughter-in-law tea, Li Chengqian also had several sons getting married. He didn't know how many times he had to drink it this year. Of course, the weddings of those sons were not so grand.
The palace was also cleaned early for today's large-scale ceremony. Although yesterday was the wedding ceremony, today is the day to meet the emperor. Li Xiang is the grandson of the Tang Dynasty. Li Xiang's first wife may be the emperor in the future.
The empress of the Tang Dynasty, so this etiquette is still very important.
The ministers of the imperial court were all dressed up, especially the princes within the imperial court. Although many happy events had been held during this period, most of them did not need to be so grand. Only the next generation of successors of the Tang Dynasty would be so grand.
When Li Xiang and his wife appeared at the door of the hall, many people wanted to say "golden boy and beautiful girl". Li Shimin's genes were good, so the people born after him were all good-looking. But if there is anyone who can surpass Li Xiang,
It's really hard to find a few.
When many people saw Cheng Yaojin’s daughter, they all overturned their perceptions. According to their thoughts, how could that guy Cheng Yaojin give birth to such a daughter? They should really check whether it was Cheng Yaojin.
Jin's daughter, with her appearance, can scare away evil spirits.
"Greetings to the emperor, long live my emperor, long live the emperor!"
In front of the important officials of the imperial court, the young couple still called them this way. They had to stay in the palace for lunch at noon, so naturally they didn't call them this way.
All the ministers in the imperial court were congratulating each other, but some officials from the Ministry of War had a sad face. They wished that this scene would pass quickly. The military report from the northwest had already arrived, but it was really inconvenient for His Royal Highness Taisun's wedding yesterday.
Send it over.
After the previous congratulations were over, Li Xiang took his little wife to the ladies in the harem. Regardless of whether there were any grudges in the past, he must wear a smile today, even if it is not for Li Xiang.
Well, it has to be for Cheng Yaojin.
This guy is a bitch. If you make his daughter feel bad today, even though he can't come to the harem to cause trouble, your son and grandson will be in trouble.
The meal was very harmonious at noon. Most of the famous harem concubines came out. These people also praised Cheng Luan vigorously, and almost all his advantages were praised.
Regarding the matter of Li Xiang's return to the capital, the concubines in the harem also saw clearly that if they wanted their children and grandchildren to have a good future, in addition to fawning over the emperor, they now had a new person to fawn over. Li You was not going to
Has Northwest taken the credit? Now there are some people who want to take this path.
"Change your itinerary in the afternoon. You will go to your father-in-law's place for dinner in the evening and stay at Qinzheng Palace in the afternoon."
When it was about to have dinner, Li Shimin changed the itinerary for Li Xiang. Although it was a bit against the rules, the emperor is the emperor, and any rules are set by the emperor. If he wanted to disobey the rules, it was just a matter of words.
Li Xiang also understood what was going on. There must have been a major change in the northwest. He was busy making trouble with his wife last night, and he put the military affairs behind him.
Cheng Luan did not return to the East Palace, but followed Concubine Yang to the harem. The group of women had a lot to talk about, so Li Xiang followed Li Shimin to the Qinzheng Hall, where ministers from various ministries were already waiting.
"Yesterday was your wedding, so I didn't let them bother you. However, the matter in the northwest is already very urgent. This is what Su Dingfang sent back. The current high-level officials in Gaochang are unstable."
Li Shimin's brief words had already let Li Xiang know what was going on over there. Khan Xue Yantuo was still very capable. He had his own connections in the Gaochang Kingdom. Although the army was now in the west of Gaochang,
These spies have already begun their activities.
In recent contacts, Gaochang has seen the tyranny of the Tang Dynasty. It is simply impossible for them to confront the Tang Dynasty alone. However, if they unite with the countries in the Western Regions, Gaochang still wants to have its own independence.
right.
The troops of the Tang Dynasty were stationed on other people's territory, which itself would give people a sense of insecurity, and this kind of stationing power was obtained through the threat of force. Therefore, as long as Xue Yantuo Khan walked around Gaochang,
He was able to gain a lot of supporters immediately. Although they haven't said it clearly yet, Su Dingfang can feel that the balance in Gaochang is slowly beginning to tilt.
Wa Dahan is a supporter of the Tang Dynasty. Without the Tang Dynasty, he would not have reached this point, but this guy's strength in Gaochang is too low, mainly because of his poor background.
With the support of Tang Dynasty, he made rapid progress, but if he wanted to influence the national policy of the entire Gaochang, he really fell short.
"how do you feel?"
For half an hour, Li Shimin did not bother Li Xiang, letting Li Xiang read these memorials carefully. The surrounding officials of the Ministry of War did not say anything either. They were not very familiar with it. Although they knew a lot from the memorials, they did not know the details.
The situation depends on His Highness the Grand Sun.
"Back to the Emperor, although the situation is urgent, it is basically within the controllable range. The coalition forces of various countries in the Western Region are not monolithic. If they were monolithic, they would probably have to start action long ago. The daily expenses of more than 100,000 people are quite a lot.
."
Originally, everyone in the imperial court was already a little unstable. Although Gaochang is still far away from us, after all, it is related to major events in the northwest, so these people think that we may be facing failure. Each of the countries in the Western Regions is not very good, but
If they were to unite, their strength would not be weak.
The current Tang Dynasty cannot carry out large-scale wars. It may be difficult to stabilize the situation just by relying on these local people. But after Li Xiang said it, they felt a little relieved. We are faced with many difficulties. Could they?
Are there no difficulties? If you analyze it carefully, maybe they have more difficulties than we do. If we persist like this, we may not be the first ones to collapse.
"I know it's unreasonable for you to go to the Western Region now..."
At the most critical moment, the only person Li Shimin could trust was his eldest grandson. He talked nicely, but in the end, Li Xiang was not allowed to go on an expedition during his wedding...
