The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 920 The Queen Mother’s Temper

Today's pomp was even greater than when they got married. This was also deliberately created by King Nanzhao. After talking to his mother yesterday, King Nanzhao returned to his palace and kicked everyone out. , I didn't close my eyes for a whole night, I thought everything clearly.

He has no other way to go now. No matter what others say, he must firm up his current thoughts, which is to let his eldest son follow Li Xiang back to Chang'an and then accept the canonization of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

If you want to lure the wolf into the house, let's lure the wolf into the house. After all, he still has a nominal title. If he does nothing and allows his second brother to achieve this position, the whole family may not be able to survive. Therefore, King Nanzhao feels that he has not taken this step. If he goes wrong, even without Li Xiang's support, just because Li Xiang is his son-in-law, the second brother will not dare to kill him in this position.

Moreover, the King of Nanzhao believed in his feelings. When he looked at Li Xiang, he could feel a sense of righteousness. Even if Li Xiang robbed the country, Li Xiang would definitely treat him well, but if his second brother was sitting there In terms of position, even if you don't die, you will still be injured.

So in today's ceremony, King Nanzhao found almost all the honor guards, and also found a group of people from the army outside the city, just to make this ceremony as big as possible.

After learning the news, the Queen Mother simply stopped trying to persuade him. He felt that his son was possessed by a demon and no matter how much he tried to persuade him, it would be of no use. So the Queen Mother simply said that he was ill and there was no need for Li Xiang to visit him today. .

On the way, Li Xiang got the news. Master Cui of the Ministry of Rites and Qian Ping both felt that this was an impolite behavior of the Nanzhao Kingdom. Yesterday, so many people saw that the Queen Mother was still drinking. Today you just say that you If you are sick and can't get out of it, this is obviously not giving us the Tang Dynasty face.

"This matter is intolerable. From my point of view, General Su should be allowed to lead the army there. The marriage alliance that the Nanzhao Kingdom wants to do was not proposed by us. It was clearly proposed by them. , Your Highness, you came all the way from Chang'an City, we can say that we have given them enough face, and after doing this today, they can't regret it even if they want to."

The most important thing for the officials of the Ministry of Rites is the prestige of the country. Now that the Queen Mother is here, Master Cui really can't bear it. Although he just got married, Master Cui also started to complain to Li Xiang. Fortunately, Li Xiang is here today. Riding a horse, if he was riding in a carriage with the princess, he would probably be able to hear it, but judging from Mr. Cui's temperament today, he wouldn't care even if the princess heard it.

Qian Ping next to him, as the general manager of the East Palace, didn't say this, but he knew from the expression on his face that this guy was upset. No matter where our Highness goes, others have to coax him to come, and it depends on our happiness. I'm not happy, you people actually want to give us a shut-in. Are you tired of living?

"What's going on with you two? We just got married yesterday. Are we going to prepare for a battle today? If this is really the case, then we are rude enough. Someone will fight with me in the future. Marriage with the Tang Dynasty? Since the Queen Mother said this, then take my post and send a cart of medicinal materials to the Queen Mother."

Li Xiang also felt that this matter was a bit embarrassing for him. If he did nothing, there would be no way to explain it to his subordinates. After receiving the news, Chang'an City would definitely say that he was cowardly, but Looking at his wife's face and his long-term strategy, Li Xiang cannot make a big move at this moment.

But if you send a cart of medicinal materials, it will be different. There is a etiquette in the Tang Dynasty. Even if someone is sick, you cannot send a cart of medicinal materials to someone. You can only send some supplements and the like. Yes, now I am sending you a cart of medicinal materials directly. I am preparing to send you away. I don’t know if the people in Nanzhao don’t understand this.

"Your Highness is really talented. He can even think of such a method. I will handle this matter myself."

After Mr. Cui of the Ministry of Rites heard the news, he was so happy that he almost fell off his horse. This way, we don't have to go to war, and we can let everyone know that we are angry. Since you dare to give us face, then don't blame us people for being unhappy. We must let you know how great we are.

Many people don't understand what's going on. The Queen Mother was fine yesterday, but why did she feel cold today? You must know that today is a big day for the entire Nanzhao Kingdom. Even if you are feeling unwell, you should persist at the entrance of the palace. But when Li Xiang arrived at the palace, the Queen Mother did not appear. Li Xiang understood why. It's happened.

"The Queen Mother had an extra drink yesterday, and that was because she was happy. Who knew the wind would blow on the way back? We all stayed at the Queen Mother's hospital last night, so we won't be able to meet with His Highness today."

Even though I have become my son-in-law, I still have to be careful when speaking. I have to call me whatever I want. If I speak too casually, I may bring misfortune to my country at any time. King Nanzhao I feel a little uncomfortable at this time, but when I think about my future life, it can only be like this. Who made the gap between the two countries so big?

"Since that's the case, I won't bother you anymore. However, when I came here, I brought a lot of medicinal materials in Chang'an City, specially prepared for the road. As a result, none of us here have used them. Many of them are famous medicines from the north, so I sent someone to deliver them to the Queen Mother."

Li Xiang said unhurriedly, if you were in Chang'an City, people would probably scold you on the spot. You are simply uneasy and kind, but in the country of Nanzhao, they don't seem to have such a custom, so listen. When Li Xiang was about to present some precious medicinal materials, King Nanzhao even thanked him.

Just say thank you. Li Xiang doesn't have the time to care about this. When he returns to the capital, as long as he can give a report to the superiors, we will also counterattack the Queen Mother's actions. Of course, we will follow the instructions. Chang'an City's habit is to fight back, but who knows that the local people's habits are different from ours, so our counterattack did not achieve the expected results. This cannot be blamed on us. This is due to the information gap between the two places.
