The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

Cheng Yaojin originally wanted to marry his daughter in a glamorous manner, but because of the Northwest War, Li Xiang had already issued an edict to the world to make everything simple. If Cheng Yaojin was unwilling, wouldn't he be standing in the interests of the common people in the world? Opposites?

When Li Xiang mentioned this matter, Li Shimin didn't think much about it. He just felt that Li Xiang was concerned about the war in the northwest, so he readily agreed. In Li Shimin's view, his grandson's marriage and territorial expansion were completely different things. Territorial Expansion is the most important thing, not to mention delaying Li Xiang's marriage. Even if Li Shimin gets a wife, it will still be delayed. This is the true idea of ​​a practical emperor.

But soon Li Shimin discovered that something was wrong, because people all over the world were praising Li Xiang. They regarded Li Xiang as an idol in their hearts. For the sake of important national affairs, even their own marriage could be easily solved. God Are there people like this out there?

Many ordinary people thought of the affairs in the homes of some nobles. Even if there was a flood nearby, the lives of these noble families were still very good, and they did not care about the life and death of the common people. After such a comparison, Li Xiang immediately jumped out , this is really unique to the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin felt that there was something fishy about this matter, so he asked his men to investigate. As a result, the entire city of Chang'an was almost dug out, and there was no smell of conspiracy in it. Those who praised Li Xiang were all sincere. Inwardly, it was not organized by Li Xiang himself at all.

It was from this time on that Li Shimin realized that he might have taken the wrong path. Not all people were full of conspiracies. There were also some people who really wanted to do something for Datang, such as his eldest grandson Li Shimin. elephant.

However, time is urgent and there is no time for Li Shimin to think about these things here. Although everything is kept simple, after all, the emperor's grandson of the Tang Dynasty is marrying a wife, so all the necessary procedures must be followed, but he just doesn't care about those so-called days. Okay, what was originally done in three days is now done in one day.

The East Palace and Cheng Yaojin's home were two places for banquets. The royal family members all went to the East Palace to drink, and the court ministers all went to Cheng Yaojin's home to drink. This was also a common practice in the past. If it were not like this, it would be It brings difficulty to the people in the court to choose.

If they went to the East Palace to drink, it would be equivalent to offending Cheng Yaojin, but if they went to Cheng Yaojin's place to drink, it would be equivalent to offending Li Chengqian. Fortunately, there were examples in the past, but they did not cause trouble. What a mistake.

To take a step back, if all the dignitaries of Chang'an City went to drink in one place, neither the East Palace nor Cheng Yaojin's home would be able to accommodate so many people. Even so, many banquets would be placed in the courtyard.

Of course, these people drinking in the courtyard have no complaints. It is already quite good to have a seat here. Do you think this is an ordinary wedding banquet? This is the wedding banquet of the grandson of the Tang Dynasty. If you can drink a glass of wine here, you can brag about it for a long time after you go back.

Of course, Li Xiang did not forget those brothers in the army who fought bloody battles with him. On the day when Li Xiang got married, everyone who had followed Li Xiang on the front line received a small red envelope. Although the money was not much, it represented His Highness Taisun has not forgotten them.

In addition, there are the families of those soldiers who died in the battle. They received generous gifts on this day, which His Highness Taisun owed them. According to Li Xiang, when they left Chang'an City with me full of hope, now they Although Li Xiang was not to blame for not returning from the front line, Li Xiang still felt ashamed of these brothers.

If we put it in the 21st century, these actions of Li Xiang are actually very normal. If he didn't do this, some trolls on the Internet might spray him to death, but now it is more than a thousand years ago. In the Tang Dynasty before, no one had ever done this before. If you died on the battlefield, it can only be said that you were unlucky. It’s not like the court didn’t give you a pension. After paying this pension, you will be Everything at home has nothing to do with the court and the generals who lead you.

But Li Xiang didn't do that. He had always been very responsible for writing down the list of all soldiers who died in battle, including those who were disabled and unable to live. Li Xiang made a lot of money using Zhi Da Bao. A large part of the money was used to subsidize them.

Many people think Li Xiang is a fool. Is there any use in winning over these people? Their families are just orphans and widowed mothers. When something really happens, these people will not be able to help you.

But now those who laughed at Li Xiang have shut their mouths. Although Li Xiang bribed these orphans and widows, he did it to show to those in the army. After they knew about this, they started fighting Among them, they also worked harder for Li Xiang, because they knew in their hearts that if one day they died for their country, Li Xiang would never treat his family badly.

The sixteen-car sedan chair set off from Cheng Yaojin's home and passed through the busiest streets in the capital. Li Xiang rode in front of him on a tall horse. Children from various families in the capital were surrounding him. Although the various ceremonies were slightly Simple, but if these people appear, they are definitely the number one in Chang'an City. Respectable young people from almost every household have arrived.

Li Shimin was also very happy. He brought the harem concubines to the East Palace early. Li Chengqian had already decorated the place and bought all kinds of things. He was just waiting for that day. Who knew that day would come earlier? For a while, at most, they can borrow some slaves from other palaces. They, the pillars, don't need to be busy. All things are done by the people below.

Li Shimin asked Li Chengqian to greet others. We are all on our own at this moment. According to common people, Li Shimin cannot sit in the house. He has to greet others at the door. After all, he is the groom's grandfather. However, since Li Shimin is the emperor now, he naturally does not need to do this. He only needs to wait for the guests to kowtow to him.

After Cheng Yaojin sent away his daughter, he felt a little disappointed. Marrying a daughter and marrying a wife were completely different things. However, soon all the noble sons and daughters of Chang'an City came over to drink. Cheng Yaojin's share The loss didn't last more than a stick of incense, and he was already dragged into a drinking competition by his old brother.
