Chapter 422 The marriage of Princess Jinyang

The emperor's imperial decree was announced by the Provincial Palace: He gave ten East Pearls, two pairs of Hetian jade bi, and one jade Ruyi to add a dowry to Xie Xiaoman.

What does this mean?

What does it mean when the emperor asked to give treasures to a minister's sister?

After a brief silence, someone finally realized that the love for the family is not only the emperor's kindness, but can even be said to be even better than before.

After hearing this, the Crown Princess Wang Yan's eyebrows and eyes moved slightly, as if she realized something.

Princess Li Mingda of Jinyang also had some thoughts in his mind. Before he left the palace, his father learned that Xiaoman got married today. Why did he come and give him the reward?

Xie Yi was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that he had been neglected for so long, and today he suddenly became flattered! Where did His Majesty Li Er sing this?

There were all kinds of speculations outside, and the women inside were talking and laughing. When the Crown Princess arrived, they had to meet the wives of each family.

Princess Jinyang went straight into the boudoir and talked to her best friend Xie Xiaoman. Wu Meiniang and Xu Hui also left tactfully, leaving only two best friends.

"Xiaoman, I'm going to get married today, and it will be Mrs. Di in the future." Princess Jinyang smiled and said, "I'm quite envious when I see you wearing a wedding dress."

"Don't envy me, you're about to go." Xiaoman was also quite happy with a shy smile on his face.

"I'm not sure!" Li Mingda shook his head and said, "There are quite a few people who have asked me, but my father promised me that I can look down on you."

Xie Xiaoman asked, "What's wrong? None of the young talents and children from aristocratic families look down on me?"

"I look like a human being, but they are all fools, I don't like it." Li Mingda said: "I really envy you, a childhood sweetheart Di Renjie."

"Don't just envy. What kind of man do you like, tell me!"

"How can this be said..."

Xie Xiaoman shook his head and said, "What's the shame of being with me? Tell me quickly. I'll ask Di Renjie to pay attention to you when I look back."

"I like..." Princess Jinyang said shyly: "I like handsome, elegant, civil and military, gentle and kind-hearted men..."

"Handsome, both civil and military, and good character. If you say more of such a man, even fewer people will catch your eye. Let me think about it!" Xie Xiaoman said: "As you said, is it my third brother like that?"

Princess Jinyang hurriedly said, "What are you talking about? Brother Xiaoyao..."

"I'm just taking the third brother as an example, a young talent like him..." Xie Xiaoman was about to explain. Suddenly, seeing Princess Jinyang's face flushed, and then a little thought, he immediately realized something and smiled suddenly: "Shizi, you don't like my third brother, you want to be my sister-in-law!"

"Nonsense again!" Li Mingda blushed. Although he was denying, his expression had completely betrayed her heart.

Xie Xiaoman pondered: "Brother Xiaoyao, the call is so kind, it is... Among the men you have come into contact with since childhood, where is there anyone better than my third brother? My third brother has always treated you very well.

But my third brother is over ten years older than you. Although I don’t have a regular house, I already have many concubines in my family. I have several children. Are you willing to marry my third brother?”

"I..." Li Mingda said with a fine line: "Although the prince-consorts have not been allowed to take concubines since ancient times, are there actually few concubines in the family? Take Sister Changle for example. Changsun Chong has several concubines, and all children of illegitimate children are there. Sister Changle should not turn a blind eye?"

"It seems that you are determined to be my sister-in-law?"

"You...where is there, I'm just talking about it."

Xie Xiaoman smiled and said, "It's certain that the third brother likes you. The current sisters-in-law in the family are all good and easy to get along with. The important thing is whether His Majesty the Emperor will agree."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Today is your happy day, be a bride beautifully." Princess Jinyang was shy and hurriedly changed the topic.

The wedding then took place in an extremely lively atmosphere. Sure enough, Prince Li Zhi appeared at the Di family, and was full of joy as the host of Di Renjie and Xie Xiaoman.

However, the most noticeable thing is the emperor's reward to Xie Xiaoman. Does this mean that the emperor wants to reuse Xie Yi?

...

The facts were indeed as everyone expected. Within a few days, the emperor kept sending out the edict.

Xie Yi, a scholar in Hongwenguan, was appointed as the prince of the Eastern Palace, and once again became a close confidant and important official around Li Zhi. Not only that, he also gave Xie Yi the position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

The Ministry of Revenue is an institution that manages the world's money and grain. Several new varieties brought by Xie Yi have now been planted and promoted in various parts of the Tang Dynasty, with extraordinary output.

Nowadays, as long as the farmers in the Tang Dynasty do not encounter extreme weather and have sufficient food in their homes, they don’t have to worry about being hungry.

As for financial management, Xie Yi is also a master. The Xie family is doing a lot of business now, and it is trending to become the richest man in the Tang Dynasty.

There is no problem with letting such a person become the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. He can manage the money and food of the Tang Dynasty. Of course, perhaps His Majesty the Emperor's intention is much more than that, and perhaps there are other intentions.

Because the candidate for the Ministry of Revenue is now vacant, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue is the actual controller of the Ministry of Revenue. Perhaps this is just a transition, and it will not take long to call the Minister of Revenue.

At this time, the emperor suddenly asked Xie Yi to serve as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and washed horses in the East Palace. What was his intention?

...

In the palace, Li Shimin smiled but said nothing.

Changsun Wuji has obviously been much more low-key in the past two days, but the fact that the Changsun family is powerful has not changed. A small East Palace washes horses, and the Minister of Revenue has no such great effect. Xie Yi's identity is still not enough. He is far from each other, so he has to find another way!

The other is Princess Jinyang’s marriage. Changsun Shunde did not give up. Now he even asked Concubine Wei to say goodbye.

However, in this case, if you marry a princess again, the Changsun family will not be able to go to heaven? In contrast, you should marry a princess to the Xie family.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin suddenly felt aroused.

It seems that I have overlooked many things. My daughter has always said that she doesn’t like many children from aristocratic families. So who can she like?

She had been in contact with Xie Yi since she was a child. She originally treated her daughter as a child and didn't think so far, but now she is already a big girl.

It’s not surprising that the love is just a matter of being so sad that it’s hard to have feelings. Is that true?

What a Xie Yi, who not only made his son trust him, but also made his baby daughter...

It was almost thirty years old, and he had insignificant thoughts about a teenage girl. It was really... Similar to most of the old father-in-law's thoughts, Li Shimin was a little angry at first.

But after calming down, he suddenly felt that this matter was not entirely nonsense. If his daughter liked it, Xie Yi might not be a suitable candidate... (To be continued.)
