The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 245 Treat the Cheng Family Daughters Kindly

"Your Highness, something's wrong..."

When Li Xiang came out of Cheng Yaojin's house, he originally wanted to return to the palace quickly. After all, it was almost time for the imperial meeting. If Li Xiang couldn't go back, it would be difficult to explain.

"What did you find?"

Li Xiang looked at Li San with some surprise. Naturally, he knew that this guy would not talk nonsense. He must have discovered something unusual when he entered just now.

"Lao Cai, the housekeeper in the house, is inappropriate."

Li San did discover something just now. Lao Cai, the chief steward of Cheng Yaojin's house, delivered a package in the middle of the night. Someone in the distance took it and took it away. Li San captured that person directly. .

This person was wearing a black gauze suit, just like the ones they had met before. All of these people were the emperor's people. In other words, Lao Cai was also the emperor's people.

"Where are the people?"

"During the fight, he was about to be captured by me, so he took poison and committed suicide."

Li San said apologetically, he thought he could capture him alive, but he didn't know that the opponent's skills were not that good, but he had a good will to die generously. When he was about to be captured, he bit the poison on his teeth directly. He died then.

Li Xiang looked back at Cheng Yaojin's mansion. Perhaps there were many such people in Chang'an City. It was also possible that Cheng Yaojin knew of this person's existence and just wanted to reassure the emperor, so he did not get rid of the old housekeeper. .

"What's in the bag?"

"There is nothing too secretive about some of the daily behaviors in this house."

Li San has already checked the bag. Although there are more than a dozen messages on it, they are basically normal transactions and there is nothing troublesome. This shows that Cheng Yaojin's home was also under surveillance in the past.

Every country has such internal strife, and it is not convenient for Li Xiang to say anything. Maybe when he was sitting in that position, he sent more people than Li Shimin. In order to make his throne more secure, of course he must He has these powerful people in his hands. If one day he has no other ideas, Li Shimin can strike first.

After returning to the East Palace, Li Xiang had no time to think about these things. The emperor had already given them a heads up and was going to meet the Tubo State Master Lu Dongzan in the main hall today.

Li Xiang knew that this Lu Dongzan was not a simple person. Today was his first public appearance in the court. He might tell all his requests, or he might ask the emperor to give a public answer, no matter what it was. This kind of thing makes today difficult.

"There is nothing wrong with Cheng Yaojin's daughter. Although Cheng Yaojin is a tough-looking man, I have seen his youngest daughter Cheng Luan. She is one of the best women in Chang'an City."

Li Chengqian was comforting his son along the way. He thought that his son's bad complexion must be because of the marriage granted by the emperor, but Li Chengqian was very satisfied with the marriage. So what if he married a daughter with the fifth surname and Qiwang? It’s not that we don’t have military power.

In Li Chengqian's eyes, the daughters of those big families were far inferior to the daughters of military generals. The reason why he wanted Hou Junji's daughter was because he wanted to use Hou Junji's strength to help him He went to the army, but he didn't expect that after getting married, the emperor was too guarded against him, and he never found an opportunity.

Now his son is married to Cheng Yaojin's daughter, who is only fourteen years old now. When the emperor gets old in the future, he will definitely not be on guard against his son. After all, he has to have someone take over the army. In Li Chengqian's view, his son is the best. Good candidate.

While the two were talking, they happened to run into Changsun Wuji coming from outside the palace. This person was Li Chengqian's uncle and Li Xiang's uncle. He had the highest status in the court. Even though they were the crown prince and The emperor's eldest grandson must wait patiently and let eldest grandson Wuji pass first.

"What happened yesterday was so ridiculous. If word spread, what would be the dignity of the Tang Dynasty? Even if you are opposed to this marriage, you should not kneel outside His Majesty's palace. This kind of influence is too bad."

Changsun Wuji has never had a chance to talk to Li Xiang about this matter. In his opinion, this matter is okay. Although Changsun Wuji has a bad relationship with the military generals, if Li Xiang can marry Cheng Yaojin If you are your daughter, it is equivalent to building a bridge with the military generals. How can you still go to the emperor to push her?

"Uncle, Xiang'er doesn't mean that. My father has never wanted us to have contact with military generals. Although the imperial edict was issued by my father, if there is any suspicion on Xiang'er, then..."

During the period when Li Xiang left the capital, the relationship between Li Chengqian and Changsun Wuji had eased a lot. After all, Li Chengqian had to step in to do everything in the East Palace. If even Changsun Wuji didn't give him face, others would look down on him even more. Li Chengqian is here.

I remembered that when Empress Changsun was still alive, the brother and sister Changsun Wuji complemented each other well and were doing well, so Changsun Wuji gave Li Chengqian a chance.

"Isn't it that Cheng Yaojin fell into that situation because he was afraid that his daughter would not be able to get married? You guys handled this matter for me so gracefully. I don't care what you said in front of the emperor. In short, from this moment on First of all, you must treat Cheng Yaojin's daughter well. If you let me know that you have treated her badly, our relationship will be over in the future."

Before Li Xiang said a word, Changsun Wuji had already set the tone for this matter. Li Chengqian was beside him and agreed. Li Xiang didn't know how to face his future wife. To be honest, Li Xiang didn't know how to face his future wife. In other words, from the moment he traveled through time, Li Xiang knew that he could not decide who to marry, but after all, he still had a little fantasy in his heart and always wanted to find someone he truly loved. Now it seems that he can only obey the arrangement.

"Go to court."

Fortunately, Wang De's voice came over, otherwise Changsun Wuji would have to teach him a lesson here for a long time. After everyone lined up, they slowly walked towards the main hall. Li Xiang looked back and saw that Cheng Yaojin's seat was empty. Yes, the emperor gave him a month's leave. The Cheng Chumo brothers were not qualified to go to court, and Li Xiang did not see them.

Farther away at the entrance of the palace, Tubo Prime Minister Lu Dongzan was already ready, with a large number of gifts from him behind him. Although Li Bu had already received the order, today was the time to formally present it to the emperor.

It was a coincidence that when Li Xiang looked back, Lu Dongzan happened to be looking here. Their eyes met in the air, and both of them felt the other's murderous intention...

The war has already begun...
