This prince, it doesn't matter if you don't do it!

Chapter 260 Volume Three
Next, Fang Xuanling and the others had a detailed discussion on the marriage.

In fact, this is just a process, after all, everyone has discussed it early in the morning.

Those just now are just a trial or two.

With the previous temptations, everyone also had a preliminary understanding of the Daming royal court.

After all, except for a very few people present, everyone has only a half-knowledge about the Ming court.

However, such a big event as a marriage is definitely not something that can be settled in a few words.

Let's talk for a while.

This is also normal, but it is just a process.

Whether it is the grand wedding of the prince or the marriage of the two countries, there are extremely cumbersome etiquette procedures.

This is unavoidable.

These have little to do with Changle. When it comes time to discuss these details, the eldest grandson will naturally rush forward.

The biggest function of Changle's trip is to show the importance of the Ming court, nothing more.

Of course, what Chang Le said before made everyone stunned for a moment. This is not like what a child should say. The key is that they really can't find a reason to refute it.

It's hard to judge because you don't know.

In the afternoon, Changle and the others left the palace.

As the eldest princess of the Ming court, she cannot stay in the palace.

Honglu Temple has specially arranged residences, but after leaving the palace, Changle can still return to the palace, but when she returns to the palace again, she becomes a princess of the Tang Dynasty again.

This operation, um, Cheng Yaojin is not here, if he is here, he is familiar with this operation!

That's what Li Chengqian did back then...

But today, Chang Le did not turn around and return to the palace, because there were people from the Wu family waiting outside the palace, who specially sent her a post.

Obviously, Li Yuan has passed the news to the Wu family.

"Your Highness, what exactly are Duke Ying and the Supreme Emperor going to do?" Chang Sun Chong was also a little confused.

Chang Le shook her head, how did she know about this?
There must be a conspiracy, but she can't understand the specific method of the conspiracy.

After all, she was just a child.

And at this moment, Changsun Wuji and others also came out, seeing Changle and others, Changsun Wuji first saluted and said: "I have seen His Royal Highness the Princess."

Looking at this scene, Changle smiled and said: "Changle has seen uncle."

The meaning of these words is to tell Changsun Wuji that at this moment, I am the princess of Datang.

Changsun Wuji is such a shrewd person, he understood as soon as he heard this, Dang even exchanged a few words with Changle, after finishing speaking, he glared at Changsun Chong, and shouted angrily: "You rebellious son, hurry up and get out!

Just now in the court, you were a foreign minister, what are you now? "

Chang Sun Chong is so helpless, is his father really confused or fake?But there was nothing he could do at the moment, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk to Changsun Wuji's side, bowing to salute.

When Changsun Wuji saw this, he said to Changle: "I made His Highness laugh, I will clean up this rebellious son first today..."

"Please, uncle." After Chang Le finished speaking, he looked at Chang Sun Chong again, and said with a smile, "Don't make uncle angry, cousin, but if you don't understand, you might as well ask uncle for advice."

Changsun Chong is also a fine person, as soon as Changle finished speaking, he understood, but seeing Changsun Wuji's eyes that could eat people, he had a headache, wouldn't he really be beaten?

If you really want to go home and get beaten, it would be a shame.

Anyway, he is also the Minister of Rites now.

Soon, the two left, and a group of civil and military ministers also watched lively.

When he got home, Chang Sun Chong was also a little apprehensive. No matter what position he was in now, he was still not good enough compared to his father.

"Come with me to the study." Changsun Wuji said with a straight face.

The servants in the mansion don't know what's going on, it stands to reason that it should be a happy event for Mr. Xiao Lang to come back.

But Changsun Wuji's performance made them dare not make mistakes.

When he came to the study, Chang Sun Chong said with a bitter face: "Aye, in the court hall..."

"Okay, okay." Before he finished speaking, Changsun Wuji waved his hand and said, "You know what's on your mind as a father, so you can talk to your father, what is the current situation in the Ming court?"

Hearing what Changsun Wuji said, Changsun Chong heaved a sigh of relief, good guy, I was scared to death.

But facing Changsun Wuji's question, Changsun Chong picked out some things that everyone knew on the bright side and said something.

"That's all?" Changsun Wuji asked suspiciously.

Chang Sun Chong nodded: "That's all I can say."

Changsun Wuji laughed when he heard the words, and this is all he can say: "Yes, you have indeed grown a lot, and my father won't ask you about the situation of the Ming court. You can tell my father about it. Where can you go?"

"It's hard to say." Chang Sun Chong said, "It depends on where His Highness wants to go."

Changsun Wuji was not in a hurry to interject, and began to think.

In court, he actually did it on purpose.

If Chang Sun Chong wanted to go further in the Ming court, he must have a clear stand. Others would not help him give Chang Sun Chong this opportunity, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet himself.

The effect was good. When they returned to the Ming court, the performance of Changsun Chong in the main hall would definitely reach Li Chengqian's ears.

As for the fact that he lost face in court and was fined, that's not a big deal.

How many people who play politics care about face?
Purpose is more important than anything else!

"For you, this is indeed an opportunity." Changsun Wuji said, "The future of the Ming court is actually immeasurable. As long as you don't fall behind in this process and keep up, my eldest grandson's family Undoubtedly, there is another way.”

Chang Sun Chong was a little curious, and said, "Aye is also very optimistic about the Ming court?"

"Hehe, you see the Daming court too simply." Changsun Wuji said, "Why do you think the court has always turned a blind eye to the affairs of the Daming court?"

"It's not because of His Highness?" Chang Sun Chong asked doubtfully.

Changsun Wuji shook his head and said, "If it's Your Majesty, then there's no problem. But this is the case with civil and military officials throughout the dynasty, don't you see something?
Don't look at the people from the Cui family jumping fiercely, but they didn't really exert their strength. Except for the dispute, they tossed a bit, look at the other times, what did they do?
It is not an exaggeration to say that big families like them account for at least [-]% of the grain of the whole Datang. If they really want to do it, don't worry, not a grain of grain can flow out of the Tang Dynasty.

And what about the facts?Nowadays, there is a steady stream of food entering the Daming royal court every day, do you know what this means? "

Chang Sun Chong still didn't understand, and said, "Aye, what do you mean those noble families are actually supporting the Ming court? It doesn't make sense, why would they do that?"

"This is where they are shrewd." Changsun Wuji said, "It can be said that, except for a very few people, all the civil and military people in the Manchu Dynasty have such an idea."

"Why?" Changsun Chong said, "It doesn't make sense."

Changsun Wuji smiled and said: "You are still too young... Who is the king of the Ming court? It is the prince of the Tang Dynasty!
Does that mean that all the achievements of the Ming court now also mean that it was achieved by the Tang Dynasty?

Our Majesty is the emperor on horseback, able to fight, good at fighting and dare to fight!

But the world has just come to peace, except for those warriors, who wants to fight?
Especially those noble clans, what good would war do them?
The credit is not as high as those warriors, and the pay is not necessarily less than those warriors. Why do they fight?
In the end, it will only make those warriors have higher and higher status, what good is it for them? "

"What does that have to do with the Royal Court of Ming Dynasty?" Chang Sun Chong still didn't understand.

"Why doesn't it matter?" Changsun Wuji said, "What if all the battles are fought by the Ming court? What loss will they have? No, nothing!
At best, some food was paid, but the food was not taken out for no reason.

In the end, when the crown prince returns to Chang'an, who owns the land laid down by the Ming court?
You are still too young to see the deeper things here. Do you think that's all I said?Think about it, there are more interests involved.

Both civil servants and generals have their own demands.

Manchu civil and military, how many fools? "

Chang Sun Chong was stunned, he really hadn't thought about it.

Listening to what my father said now, I always feel like I have been tricked by others. The whole Tang Dynasty is giving them the green light, and in their eyes, the Daming Royal Court is just a bridgehead for the Tang Dynasty.

Hehe, after a long time, the clown only has himself.

Changsun Wuji said: "You don't have to worry too much, His Highness should know about this matter, otherwise, why do you think he would make such a harsh request, because he knows that the court will not refuse.

The end of your mission this time is actually doomed from the very beginning, honestly, just do what an envoy is supposed to do, just like you did in court today, that’s all.

Maybe you can find a different path for Datang, that's still unknown. "

Chang Sun Chong nodded blankly, still feeling a little uncomfortable.

It's like a child who just got a perfect score in an exam and took it back to show off to his parents, but the parents told him that it was arranged in advance.

This makes everything he has paid and worked hard before seem like a joke.

However, Changsun Wuji didn't care much about this. Changsun Chong's development in the Ming court really gave him some opportunities.

As long as he can seize the opportunity, the future eldest grandson's family may indeed become a thousand-year-old family like King Cui Luzheng, which is more important to him than anything else.

"By the way, Aye, what is the purpose of the Supreme Emperor betrothing His Highness to a marriage?" The eldest grandson suddenly remembered this, and asked, "Could it be that the Ming court is also of value to the Supreme Emperor?"

"Why not?" Changsun Wuji asked back, "Don't you know how the Supreme Emperor abdicated? Remember, there are few in this world who can just sit back and watch their rights being taken away by others.

Does he hate it?That's for sure, what he hated was not the death of Prince Yin, what he hated was that his rights were forcibly taken away by someone, no matter who that person was. "

"Then what is the profound meaning of the Supreme Emperor's move?" Chang Sun Chong asked again.

Changsun Wuji said: "When the news came out before, I thought about it as a father. If he betrothed the eldest daughter of the warrior Xun to His Highness this time, then the matter would be simpler, but now, what he betrothed to His Highness is nothing more than Samurai Yu's second daughter, and how old is she this year?"

"What do you say?"

"Explanation?" Changsun Wuji said, "If it's the betrothed eldest daughter, it means that the Supreme Emperor is looking for a way out for his old department, and it's just a way out.

I want to tie his old department firmly to His Highness's chariot.

But now she is the second daughter, so there are many ways in it.

But there are only a few reasons.

Either he is afraid of His Majesty. After all, His Majesty's marriage is appointed by His Majesty. It is really inappropriate to betroth the eldest daughter of a Duke.

Or there are other plans, the Wu family is only used to test, both to test His Majesty, and to test His Highness.

After all, the status of the Supreme Emperor is there, not to mention it is a temptation, even if he really thinks something he shouldn't have, neither His Majesty nor Your Highness has a better way to deal with him. "

This eldest grandson Chong understood that no matter what Li Yuan did, it would be difficult for him to kill himself.

As Changsun Wuji said, his identity is there.

This identity is not the overlord, but the identity of father and ancestor.

However, Chang Sun Chong didn't know much about what the Supreme Emperor wanted to test, and Chang Sun Wuji didn't say much. On this issue, everyone had a tacit understanding and didn't discuss it deeply.

"Ayeke, what else do you want to explain?" Chang Sun Chong asked.

But Changsun Wuji shook his head, and said: "That's it, I don't have anything to say to my father, this time I'm going to be an envoy, it's fine, but when I return to the Ming court, I still have to rely on myself.

Remember, no matter you are facing anyone, you have to be clear about your current status and correct your position, only this will allow you to go further in the Ming court.

If one day you return to Chang'an as an official, you must come back with His Highness. Before His Highness returns, the only person you will be loyal to will always be His Highness.

Even in the face of Datang, when it is time to argue with reason, you have to fight with reason.

Just like when facing Zheng Xu today, did you see Chang Le's performance?See you again?
At that time, even if you were unreasonable, even if you were talking nonsense and heresy, you still had to stand up and argue with him, talk to him, how did everyone react after Chang Le finished speaking?How did Zheng Xu react? "

Obviously, he thinks that Changle is just nonsense and heresy, but they can't find a point to refute it for a while.

Changsun Chong nodded, he also regretted what happened before, at that time he blamed Chang Le for saying something wrong, but in the end, Chang Le pretended to be there.

"Aye, Daming Royal Court is a place where people can grow up, among other things." Zhang Sun Chong said, "Would you like to send my brothers there too? In Riyue Mountain, everyone grows up very quickly." ,and……"

"No need." Changsun Chong didn't finish his sentence, so Changsun Wuji waved his hand and said, "For our Changsun's family, you are enough in the Daming royal court. As for the others, we have other arrangements for my father."

Chang Sun Chong was puzzled and said: "The Imperial Court of the Ming Dynasty is indeed a place where people can grow, and there are many opportunities now, and there are many vacancies for officials in various ministries. If you miss this opportunity, it may be difficult to have such a good place in the future." chance."

Still waved his hand, and said: "You don't have to worry about this, as long as you do your own thing well, you don't need to worry about your brother's business for the time being.

Remember, even if your father passes away one day, as long as you don't go back to the Tang Dynasty with His Highness, you don't have to extend your hand to help those brothers. Your father has also made great contributions to this Tang Dynasty.Even if I am gone, Your Majesty and Your Majesty will not watch your brothers suffer.

In other words, even if they don't do anything in this life, lying on the old man's credit book is enough for them to be prosperous and wealthy for a lifetime. "

How can a shrewd person like Changsun Wuji pin all his hopes on Li Chengqian?
If he didn't have other thoughts at the beginning, he wouldn't even let Changsun Chong go, but now Changsun Chong can't come back, if Changsun Chong comes back now, his political life will be completely over, and his future achievements will be limited.

Otherwise, he was unwilling to let Changsun Chong fall into the imperial court of Ming Dynasty.

Over the years, he has witnessed the rise and fall of dynasties and the bloodshed of the throne. Li Chengqian's current momentum is indeed unstoppable, but who can make it clear in the future?
When Changsun Chong heard the words, he didn't say any more. He could actually understand what his father meant.

"By the way, how are you and Changle?" Changsun Wuji asked.

This was the main reason why he let his eldest grandson rush away.

Chang Sun Chong shook his head and said, "Now I don't have time to worry about these things, I'm busy with political affairs all day long..."

"Chang Le has grown up." Changsun Wuji said, "We haven't seen each other for more than half a year, but when I see you today, I have to admit that Chang Le has really changed a bit.

But it's also understandable, even if it has nothing to do with Changle during the half-year campaign, she must have learned a lot of things that no one can teach.

It was slowly developed in life. If it was in the Tang Dynasty, this marriage would naturally be fine. As a father, you only need to ask your majesty and empress for orders.

But now it's different, you still have to work hard.

Remember, Changle is very important to you, even more important than official position. Your real life-saving talisman is not official position, but Changle. "

"Why?" Chang Sun Chong was a little puzzled.

What does this mean?
But Changsun Wuji said: "The prince of the Great Tang may not always be the prince of the Great Tang, but the princess of the Great Tang will always be the princess of the Great Tang. You have to understand this."

Hearing what his father said, Chang Sun Chong was immediately stunned.

"What's the meaning of Aye's words?" No matter how much I said before, none of these words are as shocking!
But Changsun Wuji shook his head and said: "Go and realize it slowly, really when you understand this sentence, you will know the profound meaning of what I said today as a father."

Chang Sun Chong was so angry that he wanted to scold his mother, why can't you speak clearly at once?

But he had no choice but to nod.

But these words made him sleepless all night, tossing and turning.

This is not a good sign!
