Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1204 Candidates

A few days later, Qin Tian prepared all the things that should be prepared, and finally sent the details of the four people to the palace.

After arriving at the palace, he was directly led to the bedroom of Empress Changsun.

When he came, Li Shimin and Li Chengqian were both there.

"Qin Aiqing, is there a candidate for the crown princess?"

Qin Tian nodded, and then submitted the list of those four people.

"Your Majesty, these women are all very outstanding, whether it is in appearance or conduct, etc., but it is up to the Holy Majesty to decide which one to choose."

Li Shimin took a look at the portraits of several women. After looking at them, Li Shimin felt that Qin Tian had a good eye. The appearance of these women was indeed excellent.

Then he took a look at the life experiences of these people. Except for Fang Qing's who was slightly worse, the other three were about the same.

But after looking at it like this, it was a bit difficult for him to choose.

"Queen, please give me your opinion."

Empress Changsun nodded, after looking at it, she thought about it, and said, "I think this daughter of the Cui family is not bad, she comes from a noble family, and she has good appearance and conduct."

Empress Changsun wants to make Li Chengqian's crown prince more stable. With the backing of the family, no one can shake the crown prince's position. After all, the family has a strong foundation.

However, after Empress Changsun suggested Cui Ting, Li Shimin frowned slightly. He hated the aristocratic family, hated the aristocratic family's desire to influence the imperial power, and he also hated the aloof attitude of the aristocratic family.

He has been suppressing the aristocratic family all the time, if the daughter of the aristocratic family becomes the princess, then the aristocratic family will develop even stronger, right?

This situation is not what Li Shimin wants to see.

If he really wanted to rule it out, he would definitely rule out Cui Ting first.

Empress Changsun is a very well-rounded person, she quickly noticed the change in Li Shimin's expression, and quickly understood what Li Shimin meant.

After understanding, Empress Changsun changed the subject and said, "I think this Huayan girl is not bad."

Miss Huayan is the daughter of a powerful person, and their Hua family is considered very powerful in the Tang Dynasty, with very strong financial resources. It is also good to have her Hua family as the crown prince's backing.

For this, Li Shimin is quite satisfied.

Because, the Hua family is only rich in financial resources, and they are not very public in the court. Such people do not pose much threat to Datang.

It's both good and bad for Li Shimin and Empress Changsun to discuss like this.

Standing beside Li Chengqian, he didn't like it very much in his heart, but his own princess had to be decided by others, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.

"Sir, among these women, which one do you think is suitable to be a princess?"

When Li Shimin and Empress Changsun were discussing like this, Li Chengqian asked a question. Li Shimin and Empress Changsun were stunned for a moment, and then turned their attention to Qin Tian. Qin Tian was a little embarrassed here.

"This is a matter between the Holy Majesty and the Empress, I dare not say more."

Li Chengqian said: "It's just to listen to my husband's opinion, just talk about it."

Qin Tian smiled wryly, but he didn't say that Li Shimin is the boss here, if Li Shimin doesn't open his mouth, he dares to say it.

He just smiled: "This is to choose the crown princess for the crown prince. The crown princess may wish to express her views and opinions."

These words were said to Li Chengqian's heart, and Li Shimin and Empress Changsun suddenly realized this.

Although the prince's marriage is decided by the two of them as parents, they should consider the prince's feelings a little bit.

Now that Qin Tian has said this, Li Shimin smiled: "Prince, do you think that is suitable?"

Li Chengqian took a look at those girls, and after seeing them, he immediately fell in love with Fang Qing, and said: "Father, this Fang Qing looks good, and I like her at the first glance, why don't you just choose her?" .”

Most of the time, the choice of a partner is based on eye contact. Li Chengqian fell in love with Fang Qing immediately, and no one could do anything about it.

However, after Li Chengqian finished speaking, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun hesitated for a moment.

Although the selection of concubines for the crown prince has expanded the number of candidates, and women of ordinary officials can also participate, but they really haven't thought about marrying an ordinary woman for the crown prince.

It is okay to accept a side concubine, but not a crown princess.

After all, they still have to consider the right family. They hate the family, but they have to follow the rules of the family.

"Qin Aiqing, what's the situation with Fang Qing?"

Among the many daughters of ordinary officials, among the daughters of the rich and powerful, Qin Tian chose four of them, but only one daughter of an ordinary official, then this woman must have some special qualities.

He really wanted to know why Qin Tian chose Fang Qing.

Qin Tian said here, "Your Majesty, the reason why Fang Qing was selected is because I think her courage and vigor are good, and she is also very intelligent. If she can become the crown princess, she may be able to help the crown prince a lot..."

Qin Tian told Li Shimin and Empress Changsun about Fang Qing's performance in the assessment. Hearing his rivalry with other powerful daughters, even Empress Changsun admired her eloquence and her thorough understanding of things.

She probably expected that those people would not dare to make a big deal, so she wasn't afraid of them, right?
And a woman, in the face of a frightening snake, she was able to calm down and stomp to death with one foot, which is not comparable to other people.

Such a woman does have a likable factor.

Li Shimin thought about it for a while, an ordinary woman would not help Li Chengqian to stabilize his strength, but it could avoid the monopoly of his relatives.

And this woman obviously has a tough character, which is something that Li Chengqian is more or less missing. If this woman is behind the scenes to help, Li Chengqian may be able to grow up quickly.

"Queen, I think this Fang Qing is not bad, since the crown prince immediately fell in love with him, how about choosing her?"

Li Shimin asked Empress Changsun for her opinion, and Empress Changsun was somewhat reluctant. After all, an ordinary woman can only help the prince in a limited way. Only a huge family or family can play a decisive role in helping the prince.

If one day the prince is in trouble, how can a little Fang Qing help him?

At this time, Empress Changsun started more from a mother. She didn't see how marrying Fang Qing would help Datang, he just wanted to see how it would help his son.

Empress Changsun, who has always been very general and sensible, suddenly wanted to be willful.

But when he saw the eyes of Li Shimin and Li Chengqian, she suddenly sighed, her son seemed to really like this Fang Qing.

"The Holy Majesty thinks it's okay, so choose her."

Li Shimin nodded: "Order it down, canonize Fang Qing as the Crown Princess."
