Datang: Invincible in the world, the widow of King Zhao of the West

Chapter 241 King Zhao's wedding, congratulations from all parties, the glory of Li Er!

Three months passed in a blink of an eye.

During these three months, it wasn't Li Xun who was the happiest, but Shen Susu. During this period of time, Li Xun didn't go out again and stayed with his mother all the time.

As for Nie Yinniang, of course she went back early, followed Li Xun for so many years, and she was still near the wedding, so it was impossible for her to stay in the palace, the etiquette was not suitable, especially in this era, it was absolutely impossible Fortunately, Nie Yinniang was out with her master since she was a child, so she didn't feel much discomfort following Li Xun's expedition.

Now that the wedding is approaching, it is natural to go back to her home and prepare everything for the wedding.

In Chang'an City.

Palace.

"Nie Qing, if you start from Chang'an City, it will take at least a month to reach Beijiang City, which is too inconvenient."

"I have communicated with King Zhao, and the wedding will be held in Chang'an City."

Li Er was very happy.

That's right, after the news of Li Xun's big wedding spread, envoys from various countries were already on their way. One was to attend King Zhao's big wedding, and the other was to bring a new annual offering. It is gone, but in their original place, Datang only set up the Protectorate, and the officials who served were also their kings.

Formally, they haven't changed anything.

In essence, they are the territories of the Tang Dynasty, and they need to bow their heads to the Tang Dynasty, and they need to surrender to the Tang Dynasty every year.

As for why not rule directly?

What a joke.

The living habits of those people, as well as the customs of various places, are completely different from those of the Central Plains people. The same system, there is a high probability that it will not work, so it is better to let their own people rule their own people, and Datang will do it. The point is to start from their babies, learn the culture and etiquette of the Tang Dynasty from an early age, and let them know that they are from the Tang Dynasty.

In this way, in less than 20 years, even if their ancient sect wants to rebel, no one will join them.

This is called eradicating from the source.

Nie Yinniang's father can now be said to have reached the sky in one step. This cannot be truly reflected in his official position. After all, Datang's military merit system is there. position, then it needs real credit.

What can be most reflected is the changes in the people around him.

Nowadays, in the court, no matter whether it is the princes of various countries or other high-ranking officials, they are very enthusiastic about him. The materials needed for the military camp can be obtained for at least a month before. The day is coming, and even though he doesn't have real power, he can still drink and run around with those princes every day.

The days are not bad.

All of this, he naturally understands why, the father depends on the daughter.

His own daughter is about to become the concubine of King Zhao, so who is King Zhao in Tang Dynasty?Although he is not very old, in Datang, he is definitely a pillar of the country.

There are two kings in the body, looking at history, how many are there?
"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Nie Feng said respectfully.

Even if Nie Feng is not willing to marry the royal family, he has to be willing, not to mention, Nie Feng is very willing, is there a problem?No problem! !
"In addition, Nie Feng, I can no longer reward you with an official position. You are in the ranks of generals, and you should understand the reason." Li Er continued: "However, I can guarantee that your current position will always be there."

Nie Feng naturally understood.

I am a military commander, which is different from civil servants. Civil servants can find an excuse to give you an official position, but military commanders, general official positions are not bad, but if you want to continue to rise, you must have real meritorious service.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to be like this, Nie Feng is satisfied now." Nie Feng said hastily.

How could he not be satisfied?

In the past, it would have been impossible for him to sit in the current position in his entire life, and he was officially named a third-rank official. Similarly, Nie Feng also knew that he was able to sit in the position of a third-rank official only because he came to improve his family's status. Otherwise, it can't be said that a prince of the Tang Dynasty married the daughter of a seventh-rank official?

Does this sound like a word?

This is outrageous!

You know, how many people in those countries outside want to marry their princess to King Zhao, is their daughter competitive?No.

"Okay, then you go back and prepare. If there is anything missing, report it immediately. I will order someone to arrange it. King Zhao will be here in a few days. When the time comes, we must not lose face to our Tang Dynasty." Li Er said.

Nie Feng: "I understand! Please rest assured, Your Majesty, there will never be any accidents!"

Zhao Wang's big wedding is not just a big wedding ceremony for one person, it is about Datang's face.

There are still five days until the wedding.

Li Xun and others have already arrived in Chang'an City.

"His Majesty!"

In Zhao Wangfu.

Li Er joined hands with Empress Changsun, followed by several princes, and the princess came to the mansion.

"The child of my Li family has finally grown up." Empress Changsun took Li Xun's hand, and Li Xun followed by Empress Changsun.

"How is it? Are you ready? Is there anything missing? Can I ask someone to arrange it?" Empress Changsun asked, looking at a dozen large boxes tied with red flowers in the yard.

Li Xun said with a smile: "Second Aunt, everything is ready, there is no shortage."

"These things were all brought from the city of Beijiang. There are ginseng, clothes, and silk. In addition, 1 taels of silver were prepared."

1 taels of silver is just a small amount of money to Li Xun.But for ordinary people, this is already a huge sum of money.

You know, how much is the official salary of Datang?The most is only a few hundred taels of silver.

"Isn't the money a bit low?" Li Er heard the 10 taels, with some dissatisfaction on his face. He is not the Li Er of the past. One silver has to be split into two halves. Now Datang has completely entered the silver era.On Dongying Island, several ships of gold and silver are brought in every year. Now Li Er is very proud.

"Second Uncle, although we are not short of money now, we also need money in other aspects!" Li Xun was a little helpless. Yes, although he has a lot of money, the establishment of Beijiang City needs more money. Money, if it wasn't backed by Dongying Island's gold and silver, there wasn't much money he could get out.

The soldiers need to be replaced, and this is all money.

Especially for the current Tiance Army, Li Er directly refused to allocate funds, and he had to get all the money himself.

"Okay, if you hadn't cut off the military expenses of the Tiance Army, how could Xun'er only take so much money?" Empress Changsun gave Li Er a white look.

Li Er shrugged.

"That's the Tiance Army!"

"I don't even want it. It doesn't matter if he pays some money?"

Li Xun: "I also gave up [-]% of the profit."

Gold and silver mining on Dongying Island has become more and more proficient, and it is a huge number every year. Li Xun gave Li Er [-]% of the profit on top of that. There is no way, there is too much money, and Li Xun himself is afraid.

Therefore, Li Er directly gave the Tiance Army to Li Xun.

However, it is self-produced and sold, and he does not give military expenses.

"Okay, okay, now is not the time to talk about this." Li Er didn't understand what Li Xun was thinking. He didn't want land, he didn't want real power, he just wanted to be a prince in name. What about after Er left?
Therefore.

The more Li Xun did this, the happier Li Er was.
