God-level prince of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 761 Two Requirements
In the Taiji Palace, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and Empress Changsun were discussing about the prince's wedding.

Suddenly, a small yellow gate came to report everything about the East Palace.

It was the scene just now.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Shimin asked: "What! People from more than 300 states in ten provinces have gone to the East Palace?"

"Yes, Your Majesty! There are nearly a thousand people!"

Hearing this, Li Shimin's expression turned a little ugly, all the local officials went to the East Palace, he is a bit of an emperor.

But he didn't think about it either. It was Li Chengqian's big wedding and not his big wedding. If people don't go there to congratulate, should they come to wish him a happy wedding?

"What are they going to do?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, they said they were going to give gifts to congratulate His Highness the Crown Prince's wedding!"

Giving gifts may seem common, but it's not.

"Did Gao Ming accept it?"

Empress Changsun asked anxiously.

This can't be accepted, once it is accepted, it will be blocked.

Li Shimin has been very strict about giving gifts recently.

Xiao Huangmen quickly said: "His Royal Highness, His Highness the Crown Prince did not accept it, but asked the ministers to go back earlier, and said..."

"What are you talking about?"

Li Shimin asked.

"He said that letting the ministers do a good job of serving the people is the best gift to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

These words are really full of force.

"Hahaha! It really is my son!"

Li Shimin laughed out loud after hearing this.

Empress Changsun also breathed a sigh of relief. If the gift was accepted, Li Chengqian might be blamed. He confiscated it, and said such compelling words, which made people feel gratified.

Empress Changsun said:

"It's my Tang Dynasty's good fortune for Gao Ming to do this! Over the past year, Gao Ming has done a lot for the local government, and it's only reasonable for them to come to congratulate him on his wedding."

That's not wrong, because some of Li Chengqian's reforms have benefited a large number of people, especially the refugees. Because there is no famine, there are basically no refugees.

The life of the local officials is also easy. If it was in the past, they would have to hang their heads every day, because at any time they might lose their officials because of a refugee disaster, or lose their heads in serious cases.

This is basically not the case now.

In terms of taxation, it is also done well.

The higher the income, the higher the tax. This year is also the first year that the national treasury has a surplus, so Li Shimin feels relieved. It has been many years, and the national treasury has been in deficit for many years in Datang. Now this good situation makes him very happy.

Therefore, it is unreasonable for people not to express their gratitude to Li Chengqian.

Du Ruhui also said:
"That's right, His Royal Highness is dedicated to serving the people, and it is a blessing to the people! In the past year, he has indeed done a lot of good things. As far as I know, there are also folk forces who spontaneously organized to celebrate the prince's wedding, especially Singing praises to His Majesty. There are also folk songs, saying that the Tang Dynasty prospered in Zhenguan, and His Majesty and the crown prince have contributed a lot!"

Li Shimin didn't show any displeasure, but said:
"This is what the people want. Gao Ming has done a good job! I believe he should work harder after having a princess!"

Fang Xuanling took the initiative to say at this time: "Your Majesty, I think, why not use His Highness the Crown Prince as a model to promote a clean government!?"

Li Chengqian's behavior can already be used as a good example for Datang, and he should be regarded as a role model.

Regarding this point, Li Shimin said:

"I think it's okay! Pass on my will, and the Tang Dynasty will promote a clean government in the future! Increase corruption and accountability! Make Datang even better!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Everyone shouted.

Li Shimin thought of something again, and said again: "Come here, let Gao Ming come here for a while! I have something to do with him!"

Then someone went to invite Li Chengqian, and after a while, Li Chengqian came to the Taiji Palace.

"My son pays homage to His Majesty and Queen Mother!"

He made a salute.

"Come, come, Gao Ming, your wedding day will be in two days, I want to make a big fuss, if you need anything, just tell me!"

It was rare for Li Shimin to speak with such high interest.

Li Chengqian thought that Li Shimin might ask this question on purpose, but no matter what, he said: "Your Majesty, I think that everything should be kept simple, and there is no need to waste people and money!"

Li Shimin refused.

"How can I do that? This is the first big wedding! And there is only one princess! This involves Datang's face, and there are all nations coming to congratulate, so you have to make a lot of ostentation!"

This is related to Datang's face, so whatever you say, you have to make it bigger, so that the surrounding countries can also perceive the power of Datang.

"Yes! Gao Ming, Your Majesty is right, I think it is the same!"

Empress Changsun also said.

Li Chengqian didn't want to say anything anymore, if it involved the issue of face, there was nothing to say.

It would also be good if I could save face this time and show off my muscles.

He just said: "Then everything will be arranged by His Majesty! It's just that I think it is necessary to do a few things!"

"Huh? What's the matter?"

Everyone was surprised.

"First, there must be fireworks!"

"Of course! I want to pardon the world! What about the second one?"

Before the amnesty of the world, it was Li Zhi who was born.

And this time when the prince marries a wife, he will be pardoned again.

That's enough for Li Chengqian's face.

It is also necessary for all people to have fun, and this scale can even be compared to when Li Shimin ascended the throne.

"Secondly, since there is a congratulations from all nations, then we will hold a military parade! The musketeers and artillery teams must also participate, so that all nations know that the power of our Tang Dynasty is not something they can catch up with! Maybe they will join us Datang might as well!"

Since you want to save face, you should do this even more, show off your muscles, and let everyone know how powerful Datang is.

Li Chengqian is not afraid of technology leakage, why?Because he updates too fast, even if the enemy obtains their technology, it is still an old technology, and in the end it will still be beaten.

"I agree with this very much! Why not do this to kill two birds with one stone?"

Li Shimin praised, this is something he did not expect.

With the prince's big wedding, so many things could have happened.That was something no one thought of.

"What else, let's talk about it together!"

"No more, just these two points!"

These two points are enough, what else?
"How about this, I will think about it again, if necessary, join directly!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Thank you? You are my son, everything is done, and my face is bright! Haha"

For Li Chengqian, but also for himself, this was what Li Shimin had in mind.

Li Shimin pointed to the ministers and said: "Okay, Gao Ming, let them handle all the details, you just need to be your groom's official!"

Having said that, there are some things that Li Chengqian still has to deal with. After all, there are some things that cannot be lost.

He also said: "Yes..."
