Fang Tiejiang's letter stated that in two years' time, he would be discharged from the army and return home. Both Fang Yiai and Sun Yunniang were full of expectations.
Fang Yiai and Sun Yunniang replied to Feng Tiejiang respectively, together with the letters to Yuchi Baolin and Hou Zanjun, and asked people to send them back as soon as possible.
The New Year passed with great excitement and excitement.
In the tenth year of Zhenguan, when Fang Yiai and others were busy taking care of the eldest grandson, the Tuyuhun was in chaos. The newly promoted Tuyuhun king Murong Shun was hacked to death in the chaos. His son Nuohebo asked the Tang Dynasty to send troops to help him pacify it.
Civil unrest.
Li Shimin sent Hou Junji, who had participated in the battle to pacify Tuyuhun, to lead the troops. Thinking about it, he felt uneasy, so he also sent Qin Qiong, who was enthusiastic and eager to try.
After the two led their troops to Tuyuhun, it took only about ten days to help Nuohebo quell the civil strife and return to the court smoothly.
In order to thank the Tang Dynasty for its help, after the internal affairs were stabilized, Nuo Hebo came to Chang'an in person in the winter of the 10th year of Zhenguan to submit a letter again, asking for peace with the Tang Dynasty.
I don’t know if it should be attributed to Fang Yiai’s butterfly. After discussing with the courtiers, Li Shimin agreed to the marriage request, but instead of marrying the royal daughter to Tuyuhun, he asked King Tuyuhun to send his sister to Chang’an!
Seeing that Li Shimin and the court officials were resolute, and that Li Shimin's sons in Beijing were all outstanding men, Nuo Hebo agreed to this request after thinking for two days.
In view of the fact that they got married one after another at that time, both Li Chengqian and Li Tai had children, leaving only Li Ke without any children or daughters. Moreover, as Li Ke was promoted from the King of Shu to the King of Wu, Yang also changed from the Princess of Shu to the Princess of Wu.
His reputation for being domineering and kind-hearted has long been secretly spread to the streets and alleys of Chang'an City.
The daughter-in-law was chosen by Li Ke's biological mother from the same clan. Although Li Shimin was dissatisfied, he still wanted to give him enough face and did not refute. It was just that the son was under control, and the father naturally couldn't see it. Therefore, Nuo Hebo was the one who made the decision.
His sister, the thirteen-year-old Princess Noya, was given to Li Ke as a concubine.
Regarding Li Shimin's approach, Concubine Yang naturally agreed. She only hoped that Princess Noya could be considerate and never think of being an ignorant and domineering woman like Princess Wu Yang. Therefore, facing herself
The personally chosen daughter-in-law, Princess Wu, cried out through gritted teeth, but Concubine Yang just turned a deaf ear.
In response to Yang's rudeness at home, she couldn't beat her, and scolded her, so Li Ke could only roll up his sleeves and go out in depression, looking for a place to drink.
In order not to arouse the dissatisfaction of Tuyuhun King Nuohebo, the news of Prince Wu's palace was naturally blocked. Even the Yang family, who was making a lot of trouble, was called into the palace and had the sick Empress Changsun lecture her.
After the incident, Princess Wu Yang did not dare to make a fuss again.
Looking at King Wu's chaotic backyard, Queen Changsun and Li Shimin could only sigh in displeasure.
Looking at the backyard of Li Chengqian and Li Tai, the two head wives managed it in an orderly and harmonious manner. Li Shimin secretly regretted why he had agreed to let Concubine Yang choose a concubine for Li Ke in the first place? The choice was still Yang, who he didn't like very much.
woman?
Things have reached this point, and Li Shimin can't say anything more. He can only rely on his emperor's dignity to choose a few lovely girls for his son to stuff in the backyard. Anyway, he, the emperor's father-in-law, stuffs them in.
She, Yang, didn't dare to embarrass herself too much.
In the same year, another thing that made Fang Yiai feel comfortable was that the Ninth Prince Li Zhi was named King of Jin and left the palace to open a mansion.
This time, Yiai, the servant, didn't have to worry all the time. When Qingniang was studying with Shuer and Chengyang, she met Li Zhi from time to time in the palace.
It's just that Fang Yiai was happy for just two days. After the Jin Palace was organized smoothly, Li Zhi still went to the palace almost every day! Seven or eight times out of ten, he would accompany Qing Niang out of the palace!
Fang Yiai is so depressed! When Li Zhi lived in the palace, fortunately, he still had Shu'er to help him fend off Li Zhi's approach to Qing Niang. Now it's good, there is no one to act as a light bulb, and Li Zhi has more and Qing Niang.
Time to spend together!
Fang Yiai decided to give more reminders to her sister, especially the two smart little girls who were following her, so that they must guard against contact between Li Zhi and Qing Niang!
The boy was young, with a pair of narrow eyes that were very similar to Li Shimin's. The light was always flowing back and forth on girls of the same age. Although he didn't come forward to make a move, just by looking at him, he knew that he would be a playboy in the future!
Qing Niang must not marry such a person! Only a man who treats her wholeheartedly, my sister, is worthy of Qing Niang!
Regarding Fang Yiai's nervous behavior of controlling girls, Qing Niang just smiled and nodded in agreement. Anyway, her second brother was doing it for her own good.
Both Fang Xuanling and Mrs. Fang felt that Fang Yiai's move was completely unnecessary, and they did not think that there was already a princess in the family, and a princess would be married into the family. Even if the Fang family was more honored and favored, the emperor should
You wouldn’t want another princess from the Fang family, right? Let alone the princess who is the Queen’s legitimate son?
Li Zhi was very angry that Fang Yiai continued to encourage Qing Niang to keep distance from him. He did not dare to file a complaint in front of Li Shimin and Empress Changsun for such a trivial matter that was detrimental to face. Li Zhi went directly to the East Palace to find his eldest brother.
I complained to my sister-in-law and asked my elder brother to repair the house Yiai.
For this reason, Li Chengqian specifically called Fang Yiai over and asked about the reason.
After taking Fang Yiai to greet Empress Changsun, taking her pulse, and checking on the frail little princess, Li Chengqian found an excuse and took Fang Yiai to Shu'er's palace.
"What's wrong with Xiaojiu? Are you being guarded against Ruosi?" He motioned to Li Qing and others to slow down and follow from a distance. Li Chengqian and Fang Yiai walked side by side in front and asked in confusion, "I heard Xiao Jiu a few days ago.
Jiu said aggrievedly, you actually told Qing Niang that Xiao Jiu will definitely be a butterfly who picks flowers when they see them in the future. Isn't it common for men to have three wives and four concubines? What's more, Jiu Di is a prince who is the direct descendant of the royal family? "
"It's because he is a prince and will not be able to stay with just one wife for the rest of his life, so he was eliminated early." Fang Yiai curled her lips and said, "My sister is the treasure of treasures. Whoever wants to marry her must
I promise that I can only marry and love Qingniang in this life, otherwise, I would rather keep Qingniang at home and raise her for the rest of my life."
"When a man marries a woman, how many men can marry only one woman?" Li Chengqian rolled his eyes at Fang Yiai and said, "Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to find a suitable man by then? If you don't let Qing Niang get married, she will
Will I hate you forever?"
"I would rather she hate me for the rest of her life than be hurt for the rest of her life by another man who doesn't know how to cherish her." Fang Yiai said.
"What if Qing Niang has someone she likes, and they are in love with each other, and she insists on marrying her?" Li Chengqian asked.
"It doesn't matter, you can marry me." Fang Yiai nodded and said, "But before I marry again, I will help my future brother-in-law clean up the Yingying Yanyan around me. If he doesn't agree, I will beat him until he agrees."
"You!" Li Chengqian paused and looked at Fang Yiai like a monster. After a long while, he said, "Isn't your kid sick?"
"I am just a precious little sister. I am raising a lot of money at home. How can I let outsiders bully me? Isn't it because I am incompetent as a brother?" Fang Yiai rolled his eyes at Li Chengqian and said seriously, "My sister
I gave him my heart and soul, why can't he treat my sister wholeheartedly? Does he have to divide his heart into several parts? "
"You are so unreasonable!" Li Chengqian looked at Fang Yiai speechlessly and said, "I didn't expect you to be so unreasonable sometimes."
"It's related to my sister's life's happiness. How can I explain it?" Fang Yiai said.
"Doesn't Xiaojiu have any chance?" Li Chengqian asked again as he was about to arrive at Shu'er's palace.
"My Xiaojiu has no chance?" Just when Fang Yiai opened his mouth to answer, Li Shimin's voice casually intervened.
"My sons and ministers see my father."
"I am here to see you, Your Majesty."
Fang Yiai and Li Chengqian hurriedly turned around and saluted Li Shimin, who was slowly approaching.
Fang Yiai glanced at Li Chengqian secretly, as if to say, "Didn't you say that the emperor was reading the book in Tai Chi Hall at this time? Why are you here?"
Li Chengqian gave Fang Yiai a "How could I know" look, and then he and Fang Yiai stood obediently.
"Tell me, what were you talking about just now? What chance does my Xiaojiu have?" Li Shimin looked at Fang Yiai and Li Chengqian and asked with interest.
"This, that, what, that is, is..." Glancing at Li Chengqian, who was very unloyal and just studying the ground, Fang Yiai gritted his teeth and glared at Li Chengqian, and said in a squeaky voice, thinking about what to do.
Find some reason to deal with Li Shimin.
"Tell the truth, don't try to deceive the emperor." Looking at Fang Yiai's squeaking, Li Shimin knew that Fang Yiai wanted to make an excuse, so he opened his mouth and spoke in advance. After speaking, he glanced at Fang Yiai,
Kindly leaving Fang Yiai time to think, he walked leisurely towards Shuer's palace.
"You kid plotted against me!" Fang Yiai gritted his teeth and whispered in Li Chengqian's ear bitterly.
Li Chengqian glanced at Fang Yiai innocently and said, "I didn't know that my father would come to Shu'er at this hour."
"Hurry up and follow." Li Chengqian pulled the dissatisfied Fang Yiai and quickly followed Li Shimin into Shu'er's yard.
As soon as I entered Shuer's yard, I saw Shuer, Qingniang and Chengyang who were taking a break after studying. They were all playing shuttlecock in the yard with agility. The person who was cheering Qingniang on the side was shocked.
Li Zhi shines!
Seeing Li Zhi's excited little face, jumping up and down as he watched Qing Niang kick the shuttlecock, Fang Yiai suddenly had black lines on his head and had to look at Li Chengqian with suspicion.
