God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 859
His Majesty intends to marry Princess Runan and the eldest princess to Du He. There have been discussions on this matter in the court for a long time.

Many people have also heard various versions of the saying!

But when His Majesty Li Er said it himself, everyone was still a little confused. For a while, they couldn't react!

Changsun Wuji was the first to object.

In the imperial study room, Changsun Wuji gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, I have never heard of two princesses marrying the same person. How noble a princess is. Marrying a princess to Du He is a blessing." The great honor of the Duke's Mansion, if the two princesses marry at the same time, will they be discussed by the world? What will the future generations think of His Majesty? Besides, how to determine the identities of the two princesses? Who is right and who is wrong? Your Majesty, this matter, Absolutely impossible!"

For a long time, Changsun Wuji has always defaulted to his niece Li Lizhi as his daughter-in-law.

Li Lizhi is clever and smart, and is deeply loved by His Majesty Li Er and Empress Changsun. She can be called the jewel in the palm of the royal family. Whoever marries Li Lizhi will be blessed by eighteen generations of ancestors.

It's a pity that just last year, Du He's scheming, made a shitty close relative who couldn't get married, and there was a lot of trouble. Now, from the court to the common people, many people dare not marry their blood relatives within three generations.

Chang Sun Chong has no hope in his life!
Changsun Wuji is a typical ruthless person who smashes the pot if I can't eat it!

If my son can't marry Li Lizhi, then don't even that bastard Du He!
As soon as Changsun Wuji opened his mouth, the ministers all said, "Your Majesty, please think twice!"

"That's right, Your Majesty, Du He is now the Duke of Hu, if two more princesses are married to him, what if he makes more contributions in the future?"

"If Your Majesty insists on decreing to marry the two princesses, the old minister will be bumped to death in this imperial study!"

Many people were excited.

Some people are thinking about Datang Sheji.

Some people are considering the face of the court.

But some people simply opposed Du He.

Du He is already the duke of the state of Hu, and he can be regarded as a high-ranking and powerful person. If he marries two more princesses, he will not be able to go to heaven!
Li Er glanced around, but did not find Du Ruhui's figure.

"Why is Keming missing?" Li Er asked curiously.

Zhao Yang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I have already sent someone to declare the Duke of Lai. The Duke of Lai said that he has a severe headache and needs to rest for a few days!"

Li Er was a little speechless: "This old slicker, whenever he encounters Du He, he can't avoid it."

Then, Li Er looked at Changsun Wuji and the others, and said, "My dear friends, what you say is reasonable, but I promised at the beginning that if Du He can become the Duke of the state, I will marry Yuanshu and Lizhi to him together." , Now that he has become Duke Hu, if he doesn’t grant a marriage, wouldn’t it appear that he has no faith in his words? If this matter gets out, wouldn’t it be ridiculed by the people of the world?”

"Your Majesty, you are so confused..." Changsun Wuji said regretfully, covering his heart.

Li Er said embarrassedly: "At the beginning, I didn't know that Du He could become the Duke of the state so quickly! Auxiliary machine, tell me, besides bestowing a marriage, what other good ways are there?"

Changsun Wuji bowed his head in thought, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said loudly: "Your Majesty, I have a plan to make Du He give up voluntarily. At that time, as long as Du He himself promises not to miss the two princesses any more and only marry Princess Runan Things can be properly resolved!"

Wang Gui said with a smile: "Master Changsun, Du He has been thinking about the two princesses for not a day or two. If he is allowed to give up on his own initiative, unless the sun comes out from the west."

Changsun Wuji said confidently: "Your Majesty, my lords, leave this matter to me. I have decided to invite Lord Wang, Lord Gao, etc. to form a negotiating team to negotiate with Du He. As for the content of this negotiation, It's actually quite simple... It's not impossible for Du He to marry the two princesses, but there are three conditions..."

"First, he must give up the title of Duke Hu!"

"Second, he can no longer serve as the magistrate of Hu County!"

"Third, he can no longer serve as an official of the DPRK and China in this life!"

Changsun Wuji stated three conditions loudly and loudly.

When everyone heard this, their eyes widened.

According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, concubines are not allowed to participate in government affairs. Even if consorts have titles or other official status, they have no real power, such as being in charge of sacrifices and so on.
In other words, once Du He agrees to these three conditions, he will not do anything in this life.

ruthless!
The eldest grandson old goblin is really ruthless!
Everyone secretly scolded Changsun Wuji for being shameless, but they had no choice but to applaud this strategy.

Wang Gui said: "Your Majesty, I must have understood the meaning of the eldest grandson. These three conditions are reasonable, and Du He is now the Duke of Hu, and has hereditary power. He is also the county magistrate of Hu County. In the future, he will definitely enter As an official in the court, since this is the case, he must be reluctant to part with everything he owns, so naturally he has to make a choice."

Li Er looked at the ministers with neither sadness nor joy on his face, and said, "Since this is the case, you, the auxiliary machine, will be responsible for this matter."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty!"

Changsun Wuji happily agreed.

Immediately afterwards, Changsun Wuji summoned the big men from the court and China to form a negotiating team.

Head: Grandson Wuji, Sikong at the time.

Deputy head: Wang Gui, the current Situ.

Deputy head: Du Ruhui, right minister.

Members: Fang Xuanling, left.

Members: Gao Shilian, Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

Members: Chen Shuda, Minister of Rites.

Members: Hou Junji, Minister of the Ministry of War.

Members: Li Xiaogong, Prince of Hejian County.

Eight people in total.

And when Du Ruhui was brought in, Changsun Wuji did it entirely to show his selflessness, and wanted to prevent Du He from marrying the two princesses in an upright manner.

Early the next morning, the negotiating team rushed from Chang'an to Hu County.

In addition to the eight main negotiators, there are more than a dozen accompanying personnel responsible for recording and other matters.

Before departure, Changsun Wuji was worried that Du He would slip away early if the news leaked out, so this negotiation is highly confidential.

At noon, everyone finally arrived at the county government office in Hu County.

Ma Zhou came out to greet everyone in person: "My lords, the Duke knows that everyone has worked hard all the way, so he specially made potato stewed beef to reward everyone. Follow me!"

When they came to the backyard, they saw Du He and Li Ke squatting by the stove, eating something.

There was a strong fragrance in the whole yard.

Everyone rushed all morning, and their stomachs couldn't help growling.

A few people couldn't bear it and were about to step forward.

Unexpectedly, Changsun Wuji raised his hand, stopped everyone, and said righteously: "My lords, as the saying goes, take others' hands short and eat others' soft mouths. Today, we are here to negotiate with Du He. We still don't want this meal." It’s better to eat, my lords, bear with it, and when I return to Chang’an, I will treat everyone to a banquet at my residence!”

Having said that, the roast beef with potatoes is really delicious, and it is a dish that everyone has never heard of.

At this moment, Hou Junji licked his lips, turned around and asked Du Ruhui, "Du Xiang, don't you want to try it?"

Du Ru said indifferently: "Oh, beef stew with potatoes, I'm tired of eating it these days!"

Everyone: "..."

Shameless!
