Chapter 387 Marriage
Li Shimin ate the roast chicken brought from Jingyang and said, "What do you think of Li Zheng's words?"

Du Ruhui said in a low voice: "This son is very cautious."

Fang Xuanling also said: "Teaching people how to fish is worse than giving them fish. Your Majesty thinks that Li Zheng's mind is a bit floating, so it's better to subdue him. But if Li Zheng is given another [-] mu of land, he will no longer be a county lord."

Of course, according to Li Zheng's fiefdom, it is considered a special treatment for a county marquis. How could a county marquis have so many fiefdoms? Li Shimin nodded and said, "The marriage between Li Zheng and Lizhi should also be arranged."

From this moment on, Li Shimin really felt that it would be best to completely tie Li Zheng to the royal family. A Li Zheng who just wanted to get rich might be nothing.

Even if Li Zheng has some strategies, Li Shimin can also be regarded as clever.

But after seeing Li Zheng today, Li Shimin suddenly realized that he had underestimated Li Zheng for so long.

Li Zheng has grown up and is almost an adult.

After letting Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui retire, Li Shimin asked Wang Ding to summon the eldest grandson empress.

In the evening of that day, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun talked for more than an hour in Ganlu Hall.

During this conversation, Li Shimin asked the maids and eunuchs around him to withdraw.

Even Wang Ding stood outside Ganlu Hall, not knowing what His Majesty and Queen had said.

At night, Empress Changsun brought Li Lizhi to the Lizheng Hall, and whispered to her, "Lizhi, if you marry Li Zheng, will you regret it?"

Li Lizhi blushed and didn't know how to answer. She glanced at her mother's serious expression and knew that her mother was not joking this time.

"Daughter... my daughter doesn't know either." Li Lizhi hesitated, feeling her heart beating fast.

Empress Changsun said to Li Lizhi in a low voice: "I want you to marry Li Zheng. Your father really started talking about it very early, but it has been delayed until now. Now your father has lost his voice. When Li Zheng becomes an adult, it will be you and Li Zheng." wedding day."

Li Lizhi looked down at her toes.

Empress Changsun looked at her daughter distressedly, "From tomorrow onwards, the Ministry of Rites will make formal preparations. The queen mother just asks how you feel. This time, you will marry even if you don't want to marry. You won't be allowed to play with your temper."

"My daughter understands."

Li Lizhi spoke in a low voice,

Empress Changsun whispered: "The reason why your father wants to marry you to Li Zheng is because he hopes to tie Li Zheng to the royal family. There are some things that are difficult to say as a mother. As a mother, I have to tell you. In fact, you marry Li Zheng. To Li Zheng, you are the link between Li Zheng and the royal family."

Li Lizhi said in a low voice, "My daughter understands what to do."

Empress Changsun looked at her daughter distressedly, "Although you have liked Li Zheng for a long time, it was your father who asked you to marry him for the sake of the country and society."

Li Lizhi looked at her mother with a smile and said, "Don't worry, my daughter can take good care of herself."

Empress Changsun nodded and stroked Li Lizhi's bun.

On the second day, the court issued an imperial edict announcing the wedding date of Princess Changle and Li Zheng.

She got married in June of the ninth year of Zhenguan and was bestowed with a thousand lands.

Feng Lizheng Jingyang County Duke.

Ren Chang'an Order.

The imperial edict spread throughout the government and the public, and His Majesty finally announced the date of marriage.

Princess Changle finally became a victim of Li Shimin for the government. Li Shimin married the princess in order to tie Li Zheng. This is the first time since the founding of the country that the princess married a child from a poor family.

When Li Chengqian found out about this matter, he said to Di Zhixun, "This matter has finally been settled."

Di Zhixun nodded and said, "A poor family boy marrying a princess will become a benchmark, and the poor family children in the world will know it too."

"The son of a poor family has become a son-in-law, but I feel that the meaning of the father is very deep. It is not outside Chang'an but within the boundaries of Chang'an. If it is still under the jurisdiction of Chang'an, then this county prince is a fictitious title, in name only. The Chang'an order is just an official position that obeys dispatch. , Li Zheng still has no right."

Di Zhixun nodded, "Many people will object to a poor boy who has the status of a royal relative."

The court announced the date of marriage, and the most promising child in Jingyang County was finally going to marry the princess.

The whole village was very happy, and they killed twenty pigs in one go.

The business in Jingyangfang City has directly reduced prices.

Li Zheng sat in the horse pen and listened to Li Tai recite Li Shimin's imperial decree over and over again with a sad face, "Your Highness Wei Wang, you have recited it ten times."

Li Tai said with a smile all over his face: "Congratulations, you have finally become a son-in-law, and this matter is finally settled."

"Your father wants to tie me to his boat. From now on, I will help your royal family to catch up with the flood."

Li Tai was still very happy, and watched the imperial decree over and over again, even though he had to wait another three years.

Li Yifu came to report: "The county lord, you have returned from vomiting silently."

Li Zheng stood up to meet Mou, and when he came to the entrance of Jingyang Village, Li Zheng saw the Turkic man again.

Mou immediately said to Li Zheng: "Congratulations to the county lord, now the county lord is also a son-in-law."

Li Zheng threw an antidote to Mou and said, "This is your antidote."

Mou swallowed it immediately, took out a parchment and said, "This is from the Western Turkic nobleman Qi Shi who asked the villain to send it."

Li Zheng opened this parchment scroll and looked at the content on it. There were five thousand bows, thirty thousand arrows, one thousand Mo knives, and five hundred horizontal knives, totaling twenty thousand coins.
This order is a bit small, but this is the first order and it can be regarded as a beginning.

Li Zheng said to Mou: "How is the situation in Western Turks now?"

Mou replied, "It's messy inside and out."

Li Zheng handed the parchment to Li Yifu, and said to Mou: "Tomorrow morning, someone will send things outside Chang'an City, and someone will send weapons out of the customs. You just follow the way out of the customs and meet with the Western Turks. , only the cashier cake.”

"Here." Mou even bowed.

"I will give you three thousand coins for this transaction, and I will give you money for every transaction in the future."

"Thank you, County Marquis, thank you County Marquis." Mo Vo was overjoyed, and almost kowtowed after several salutes.

"Go ahead and have a good day off."

"Here."

Li Yifu watched silently leave and asked in a low voice: "Mr. County, will you give too much?"

"Not much, we will earn more in the future." Li Zheng said with a smile: "Because whether the price will increase in the future or how much the price will increase, I have the final say, let them have some sweetness first."

After returning to the stables, Li Zheng handed over the sheepskin scroll to Dahu, and asked Dahu to hand it over to Li Ji, and Li Ji would ask someone to send out the weapon in the next step.

The fortifications of road construction have also ended, and many laborers have been idled.

Three days later, Li Zheng listened to reports from Li Yifu and Xu Jingzong.

Li Yifu said: "Your Majesty, now we have 60 hens and [-] chicks in our farm, and the newly harvested grain is [-] shi, plus the iron materials sent by General Li Ji, We still have [-] guan in spare money.”

"60 guan." Li Zheng knew that the biggest expenditure was road construction.
