In the fourth year of the Longsheng period, the princess removed her filial piety, and the prince went to the palace of Yongding County to pay a visit and propose marriage. The princess showed her beauty and proposed to her. Emperor Taizong was overjoyed when he heard about it and offered marriage to her personally.
At that time, Emperor Gaozu was still called Kang Jian. Since King Qi became a widower, he was always worried. When he heard about the marriage, he was overjoyed. He personally performed the marriage. He held the arm of the prince at the banquet and said that the two families were related by marriage. Princess Duanyi made Xu Yong the prince's son.
Princess Duanyi, the fourteenth daughter of the great ancestor, was born to the Duan family of Zhaoyi. She was virtuous and calm, with beautiful appearance. She was fifteen years old. Liu He, the crown prince of Yongding County, was pure in nature, indifferent to etiquette, and was nineteen years old. The Qin and Jin Dynasties were completed.
The Liu family settled in Sui'an.
——"The Biography of Princess Jiaping in the History of Yong Dynasty"
Walking into Prince Qi's Mansion from the side door, Li Lin handed his mount to the guard. He was about to go back to his residence to take a bath and change clothes, but was stopped by the guard: "Your Highness Lin, the prince has ordered you to see him as soon as you come back?"
Li Lin hesitated for a moment. He always had mixed feelings of admiration and fear for his father. However, Li Xian was either busy with government affairs or surrounded by his twin siblings every day. He had no time to care about himself. Now he summoned Li Lin.
Did he make any mistake? At that moment, he did not dare to hesitate and hurried to the flower hall of the inner house. Before he even approached the door, he heard hearty laughter coming from the hall, which was his father's voice. Li
Lin quietly walked to the side of the flower hall and quietly looked in through the half-opened window. At a glance, Li Lin's body suddenly froze. How could he be like this? He was sitting opposite his father, with a leisurely look and red hair on his temples.
Isn't it Yan's uncle Jiang Zhe? The two were playing chess. Seeing that his father was so happy, he probably killed his uncle on the chessboard again. When would this Chu Junhou who didn't even want to go to court come to his house?
After the door was closed, he couldn't have known that he was angry and cried Roulan, right? Li Lin was thinking wildly and hesitating whether to sneak away secretly, just pretending that he had not come back. At this time, the evil shadow who was inseparable from his uncle was facing him intentionally or unintentionally.
The window lattice smiled, and Li Lin dejectedly realized that there was no way he could escape, so he could only walk slowly towards the door of the flower hall.
Smiling softly, I pretended not to know that Li Lin was peeking outside the window. I am really ashamed to say that my own children are very smart and know how to avoid my bullying. Roulan relied on the Empress and His Royal Highness to support her.
, Not to mention that the Queen Empress raised Rou Lan with her own hands and treated her as her own daughter. How could His Highness not treat her as his biological sister? His Highness, that’s all. Although he is the crown prince, after all, I am him.
Uncle, he doesn't dare to be rude to me, but I can't afford to offend the Queen. If the Emperor hadn't collapsed, I wouldn't even dare to teach Roulan a lesson. As for Jiang Shen, let's not mention this tired boy.
, it’s okay to be the king and hegemon in the monk’s temple for ten months a year. In order to avoid me, he went to his future father-in-law’s house to eat and drink. Especially after his little fiancee Li Ning was born, this kid
Basically, no one can be seen except during the New Year. Since King Qi kidnapped my son, naturally I want to take revenge. Li Lin is the unlucky kid, so he has become my pistachio. As for Li Ning’s twin brother Li
Zhuo, I don’t dare to bully the current Crown Prince of Qi. I know how powerful Princess Qi and Princess Jiaping Lin Bi are. When Prince Qi went to Yongding County Prince’s Mansion to propose marriage, I was the one who instigated it. Lin Bi broke into Prince Qi’s Mansion with a sword.
I was also present at that time. If I hadn't given Li Xian the idea of kneeling down to apologize, I'm afraid Lin Bi would have killed Li Xian with one sword and then committed suicide to apologize. If this was true, I'm afraid it would have been difficult to make an emergency landing.
The Northern Han Dynasty would raise the rebel flag again, and it would be a fool's dream to try to digest the territory and people of the Northern Han Dynasty within a few years. Fortunately, I was prepared and took this opportunity to tell Long Tingfei's last wish, and finally
Lin Bi was relieved of her anger and gave King Qi an excuse and opportunity to pursue a beautiful woman. After three years of hard work, King Qi finally got his wish.
In fact, it’s not that I want to take risks, this is also a helpless move. After the Northern Han royal family surrendered, there were calls within Dayong to eradicate the roots, but they were vetoed by Li Zhi. Speaking of which, Li Zhi was really wise and generous. Although the Northern Han royal family destroyed the country,
Please surrender, but the Liu family's influence in the Northern Han Dynasty is already deep-rooted. If the Liu family is uneasy, the Northern Han Dynasty will be uneasy. Although it is easier to eradicate the roots, the consequences are endless, not to mention that the Lin family will be dissatisfied and rebel.
Even those generals and soldiers of the Northern Han Dynasty who disarmed and returned to their fields after surrendering to the Northern Han Dynasty, as well as the Mo Zong who had retired, they would not give up their resistance because of the destruction of the Northern Han royal family. Instead, they would persevere and make things difficult for Dayong. But if
Allowing Liu's influence to continue to exist would also be a hidden danger to Dayong's imperial power.
Finally, I came up with a different strategy to integrate the Northern Han royal family. Since the Northern Han royal family is prestigious and popular among the people, then they should be integrated into the Dayong royal family. All daughters of the Liu family will be married into the royal family and become princesses. Princesses, all Liu family
Let the descendants of the Liu family marry the eldest daughter of the royal family. If this continues, for up to three generations, the Liu family and the royal family will become inseparable blood relatives. When the time comes, both will be prosperous and both will suffer losses. What else can they fight against? The arrogant soldiers of the Northern Han Dynasty
Will the fierce general still be in trouble with his old master? Even though the soldiers and civilians of the two countries have a lot of hatred, as long as they are encouraged to intermarry and let their blood merge together, no matter how deep the hatred is, it will disappear after the blood is connected.
To realize this strategy, the most important thing is the marriage between King Qi and Princess Jiaping. King Qi led his troops to destroy the Northern Han Dynasty. Although it was His Majesty who finally closed the net, for the Northern Han people, Li Xian was the culprit, and Princess Jiaping
, as the spiritual leader of the Daizhou Lin family and the pillar of the Northern Han royal family, she is also the wife of Long Tingfei, who can be said to be the only leader recognized by the Northern Han military. Only by letting her marry into the royal family can she be
It can completely reassure the Dayong royal family, reassure the Liu family, and win over the Lin family. However, if you want to achieve this goal, you cannot let Lin Bi have any reluctance. Being forced to marry and being happy with each other are two different effects. In order to
For this purpose, I made suggestions behind the back of King Qi, and finally got Lin Bi to nod to marry him. This was even more difficult than when I planned to destroy the Northern Han Dynasty. Li Xian was called romantic in vain. When pursuing Lin Bi, all his clumsiness was ignored by me.
I saw it. Fortunately, I got my wish in the end. At the wedding of Li Xian and Lin Bi, the Supreme Emperor completed the final blow and betrothed Princess Duanyi, who had just gotten married, to the crown prince of Yongding County, the original crown prince Liu of the Northern Han Dynasty.
He. Liu He has a pure nature and has no interest in power. If the Northern Han Dynasty was still there, he would be somewhat incompetent as the crown prince. However, as the crown prince of Yongding County, he is most in line with the wishes of the Dayong royal family. These two cases
As soon as the marriage was completed, the effects were immediately apparent. Many generals and officials who were originally unwilling to serve Dayong also served as officials or joined the army. With the joining of the Northern Han warriors, the vitality of the Yong army, which was severely damaged during the conquest of the Northern Han Dynasty, also increased.
Gradually recovered.
Of course, the one who was calculated by Li Zhi and I was the King of Qi, Li Xian. In order to pursue Lin Bi, Li Xian wisely gave up his military power. No one could let such a couple hold military power. Especially after Li Xian's wedding,
He almost no longer involved in the military, which gave the emperor the opportunity to take back all military power when reorganizing the army. There was no longer a force within Dayong that could oppose the imperial power. Although he was a bit too much towards Li Xian, one was willing to fight and the other was
He is not the only one who is willing to give up his military power for the sake of beauty. Besides, although I designed to take away his military power, his influence in the army is still there, and his marriage to Lin Bi also gives him the most practical guarantee. Unless
He wanted to subvert the country, otherwise no matter who sits on the throne of Dayong, he would not easily take action against him. Besides, when the time comes to conquer Southern Chu, he will be indispensable, and he can destroy Northern Han, Southern Chu, and so on.
Anyone should be satisfied with such military exploits.
I have worked hard to bring about such a balanced situation, which can be said to be a great achievement for my hard work. However, Li Xian is too unloyal. Lin Bi has not yet roared in the east of the river. Now there is only one person in the court, and the prince of Qi, who is more than ten thousand people, just to please the beautiful woman.
I was completely betrayed, which makes me feel guilty when I see Lin Bi now. The only good thing is that the people in the Northern Han Dynasty did not blame me for the death of Long Tingfei and others. After all, for them, they lost to a weakling.
Scholars always lose face, so naturally Li Zhi and Li Xian took the blame for me. Anyway, I was not the one who took action in the end.
But while I felt a little disadvantaged, I also found a way to vent my anger, which was to bully Li Lin. But to be honest, if I didn't love and pity this kid, I wouldn't tease him. After all, because of me, he
He lost his mother and grew up in the military. With the birth of Li Ning and Li Zhuo, the status of the crown prince of Qi was completely lost to him. Unlike his brothers who were not taken seriously in the first place, Li was originally the legitimate son.
Lin is even more miserable. In order to make up for this child, I proposed to the emperor that he be given the title of a county prince. And now he is the companion of Prince Li Jun. If nothing unexpected happens, he will also be Li Jun's right-hand man in the future. This should be enough to compensate.
His loss.
While I was sipping tea and thinking about it, Li Lin had already walked in. It took so long for even a turtle to crawl in. He walked in with his head lowered and greeted Li Xian, and then hid in the corner of the room. I laughed.
: "Lin'er, why are you hiding? Why don't you come over and pay tribute to my uncle?"
Li Xian frowned and said, "Lin'er, what are you doing? You don't understand any etiquette."
I gently shook the folding fan to stop Li Xian's words and said, "Lin'er, didn't you make some mistake and don't dare to see me?"
Li Lin hurriedly said: "No, no, I didn't make Roulan cry." He almost bit his tongue when he said this sentence. For some reason, when he saw Jiang Zhe's half-smiling expression, he felt flustered. He couldn't help but take a peek.
To the two elders.
Li Xianyi glared and said: "What, you made Roulan cry in anger. Why didn't you explain to me clearly? Then you went to think about your mistakes behind closed doors and stopped eating dinner."
Li Lin had a grimace and didn't dare to answer, but then I smiled and said: "What do I think it is? That girl Roulan is very pampered. It's good to be angry with her, so as not to make her more domineering. Brother Six, don't do it either."
Just like the empress, she spoiled this girl so much that she was scared to death when she held her in her mouth. Lin'er, tell me what's going on. If this girl makes trouble unreasonably, I'll punish her when I get back."
Li Lin almost shed tears. Fortunately, it was not Roulan's fault. If Jiang Zhe took the opportunity to punish Roulan, he would probably be punished by the family afterwards, and then he might be reprimanded by the Queen. Finally,
Well, the prince's cousin will probably be detained for ten and a half months. In the palace, there are rules everywhere, not to mention how boring he is, and he can't stand it. Looking at Jiang Zhe's eager eyes, Li Lin quickly summarized today's
I talked about the matter in a light and avoidant way.
Li Xian frowned after hearing this. He didn't blame Li Lin for bullying others. Anyway, he knew that Li Lin would not go too far. At most, he would only give the Nanchu boy a little pain. He was even more domineering than Li Lin when he was young.
Arrogant, he said thoughtfully: "You said that this young man, who is thirteen or fourteen years old, can use a three-stone strong bow. When it comes to bows and arrows, he is the best at riding and shooting in Daizhou. He is also one of a thousand. I don't know.
How is his archery skills? No wonder you pay attention, Lin'er, send an order for me and bring that young man back to me, I want to try his skills."
Hearing this, I couldn't help but smile. Like father, like son. Although Shen'er is not like me, Li Lin is very much like King Qi. When he saw Li Lin, he was about to go down to deliver the order. I stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, so
It would be too shocking for a dignified prince like you to intervene in such a small matter. Let the children resolve their own matters. Lin'er, although you are young, you are already the Prince of Jia County who has been granted the title of King by the imperial court. I will leave this matter to you.
I’ve given it to you, but you’re not allowed to take human life lightly. It’s up to you to decide what to do with it.”
Li Lin was overjoyed. He still couldn't forget the Nanchu boy in his heart, but it was hindering Rou Lan from making trouble again. Now that Jiang Zhe is in charge, he can do whatever he wants. He felt itchy in his heart and wanted to capture the boy immediately.
Fuzhong.
Li Xian saw that he was so anxious and cursed: "There is no certainty at all, why are you anxious? Since this person claims to be here to find relatives, how can he leave so quickly? Besides, he has escaped. As long as a military order is passed, how can he be afraid?"
Did he escape back to Nanchu? Today your aunt and others are coming to visit your mother and concubine. Your mother and concubine have said that no one is allowed to be absent from the family dinner tonight."
Li Lin had no choice but to obey the order solemnly, but glanced at Jiang Zhe secretly. Now he knew why his uncle was here. General Wang Ji, his aunt's guest, was his disciple. If he came to Chang'an, he must go there first after reporting to the Ministry of War.
When meeting her uncle, it must be that her stepmother wanted to see her sister and brother-in-law first, so she forced her uncle to wait at her home. She couldn't help but lower her head and snickered. Although her uncle was majestic, he looked careless even in front of the emperor's uncle.
, but he looked trembling in front of Princess Jiaping. It was really funny. I really couldn’t understand how he managed to manipulate the soldiers of the Northern Han Dynasty.
At this time, I have no idea how to understand Li Lin's little tricks. He is proficient in archery. He can shoot a three-stone strong bow at a young age. Yunlu, Lu Yun, hum, such childish tricks are also trying to hide from my eyes and ears, but I don't know that he
Why did I come to Dayong, but I definitely didn’t come to pay homage to my master. Besides, I heard that Lu Can was very fond of his eldest son, Lu Yun. It must have been the young man’s own idea. I was also told that I would tell him not to use this person.
The young man must be imprisoned as a spy. Now that this young man is here, I should also fulfill my responsibilities as an elder. Let me teach him a little lesson. Well, let Li Lin and Rou Lan deal with it. If there is Huo
If Cong grasps the overall situation, there should be no unexpected changes.
Thinking of Huo Cong, I couldn't help but smile with satisfaction. This Huo Cong is my most proud disciple, and he will definitely excel in the future. I am impetuous, and my knowledge is extensive but not perfect. Although I have the intention to be patient, I can't help but show my edge.
My other disciples each have different shortcomings. Lu Can is too bright and loyal, and will eventually suffer from it. Jing Chi is rough-tempered and sometimes has difficulty controlling his impulses. Although I love him for his simplicity, it is a pity that he will never become a famous general.
She has some strengths, but limited by her qualifications and experience. Although she can act alone, she cannot take over the overall situation. As for my children, Roulan is smart and intelligent, but now I just deliberately prevent her from facing the cruel reality. A girl,
I don't want her to be too outstanding, I just want her to spend her life happily. Shen'er, don't mention it. He may have inherited three points of my intelligence and talent, but he has inherited ten points of my laziness and laziness.
I feel sorry for Master Cizhen. How can such a confused boy take on the responsibility of protecting the Dharma? But fools are blessed, and with his temperament, he may have a happy life.
Pai Zhi calculated it again and found that only Huo Cong is my most proud disciple. He is perseverant and broad-minded. He has his own opinions and is able to adapt to changes. He is well-read but concentrates on history. The most rare thing is that he is willing to be ordinary and good at it.
Yu Yinren. I am just a prisoner imprisoned in wealth and glory. Although the shackles are all kinds of beautiful friendships in the world, I cannot be free after all. But he is the hermit who can truly hide in the court, and he is the only one who can inherit my mantle.
disciple, so I kept him here even though I knew there was something wrong with his identity. Firstly, I loved his talent, and secondly, it would be a bit dangerous if such a talent was not kept by my side.
At this time, Tao Lin, one of the four guards around King Qi, hurriedly came over and said: "Your Majesty, Lord Jiang, the princess and Wang Yibin are here. The princess has invited you."
Li Xian and I looked at each other and smiled, and walked side by side to the Yin'an Hall of the Royal Palace. As soon as we entered the hall, we saw the graceful Princess Jiaping holding Lin Tong's hand and whispering, while Chi Ji stood aside and held his hands.
Standing there, he was always a little reserved in front of Lin Bi. When he saw me, he quickly came over to bow down and bow to me, saying, "Seeing that Mr. Xi's face is as good as before, Chi Ji feels at ease. This time when he met Robber Li on the way, he asked me to
I would like to say hello to Sir. I originally wanted to go see Sir first, but when I entered the city, I heard Mr. Xiao say that Sir is also here with His Highness Prince Qi."
I couldn't help but hold my breath for a while. Why didn't this kid open any pot? A sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. I smiled and said: "It's nothing. I just came to play chess with King Qi today. How about it, Chi Ji? I heard that you have been here for half a year."
You were injured before, are you okay now?"
Lin Tong heard this and said worriedly: "Sir, although Ji Lang's arrow wound has healed, he still feels pain when it's windy or rainy. I was just about to ask you, sir, to take a look at it for him?"
I smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. This is because the meridians have been damaged. Let him come to my house and I will give him acupuncture a few times. I will also teach him this set of acupuncture. In terms of medical skills, he is still very good."
Ji learned better, although he later changed his profession to become a veterinarian." But he thought to himself that my soul-seizing golden needles are unparalleled in the world, and there is absolutely no problem in removing the root of Chi Ji's disease, but that set of golden needles was originally used for executions, so maybe it will
It hurts a little. Of course, with my ability, there will be no flaws on my face. Lin Tong nodded happily and thanked me. Just when I was secretly proud, I saw Lin Bi glance at me lightly, with a faint warning in her eyes,
I was shocked and quickly avoided her gaze, thinking to myself, I don't even dare to tell them the truth.
At this time, the family banquet was ready. Lin Bi pulled Lin Tong and walked out. Li Xian followed. I saw that Chi Ji looked a little strange, as if he had something to report, so I deliberately stayed a step behind. Sure enough, Chi Ji was there.
I whispered in my ear: "Sir, Pirates asked me to report that General Duan has returned to China. According to Sir's previous order, he has ordered General Duan to be sent to Nanshan. It should be done in the next few days.
When we get to Chang'an, we will have more detailed information then."
My heart was shocked, Duan Wudi. After the Northern Han Dynasty asked for surrender, I wanted to recruit him back. Unexpectedly, he had already gone to the sea and has been missing since then. Unexpectedly, he finally came back today. I am quite sorry for this.
