Chapter 64 Marriage of the Eastern Women's Kingdom(1/2)
The reputation of Zhiminghou spread far and wide, and a turmoil made everyone in the Tang Dynasty know Wei Jiu's name. Not only that, but also the surrounding countries. The Tang Dynasty had a very young and extraordinary ability named Zhiminghou.
The two words "knowing one's fate" alone already show the uniqueness of this country's marquis. In the Western Han Dynasty, a person was awarded the title of champion, which means "bravely championing the three armies" because it is not within the rank. If the rank must be calculated carefully, that is
Beyond the first rank, Zhi Minghou of the Tang Dynasty means "knowing the fate of heaven and regulating the strategy." Although he is a third-rank country prince, the word "Zhi Ming Hou" raises his status to infinitely close to that of a first-rank Duke.
Because it is rare!
Zhiminghou is the only special title in the Tang Dynasty. Starting from the Sui Dynasty, titles were given based on the title of the fief.
How could such a special Marquis of the Tang Dynasty not be known to the surrounding countries?
In this era, there are still many underdeveloped tribes. They also want to unify the kingdom and establish culture. They need to be attached to powerful empires, such as Tubo, Turks, and the Tang Empire. Submission and attachment are very common in this era. It is common.
It is possible that some backward people will be despised and you will not be given the chance to surrender.
When Li Yuan was in power, a small tribal country once came to Chang'an to worship. When Li Yuan returned to Beijing this year, he brought an envoy from this country with him.
Envoy from the Eastern Women’s Kingdom.
The envoy is still a woman. Dongnu Country is a country that respects women. It can even be said to be a slightly larger country. The army is not strong enough, the technology is not developed enough, and it may be swallowed up at any time.
This messenger brought a piece of news that made Wei Jiu jump. The king of the Daughter Kingdom wanted to marry him. The Dongnu Kingdom could surrender to the Tang Empire for this purpose. The Tang Empire could send officials from the Tang Dynasty to the Dongnu Kingdom.
He will be treated with the courtesy of a national teacher.
Wei Jiu was lying in the backyard of Hejian Prince's Mansion, lying under a parasol with Li Xiaogong. Wei Jiu's face was full of sorrow, but Li Xiaogong laughed unscrupulously.
"You little unscrupulous person, this Dongnu Country is a good place, where women are respected. I heard that the king of Dongnu Country is about thirty-five or sixty years old. Why don't you give it a try?"
"Master Hejian, can't you be a bit upright? I am a handsome young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, in my prime, and then you ask me to marry a woman who is almost forty years old? No, this woman should marry me, I am
Looking for a daughter-in-law or a mother? The king of the Eastern Lady Country has a hobby of old cows eating young grass? Whoever wants to marry can marry him, but I won’t marry him, why don’t I let Chongyi come?”
Wei Jiu squinted at Li Xiaogong. Li Xiaogong raised his head and laughed loudly, claiming that although Chongyi did not live up to expectations, he was still his biological son. After hearing this, Wei Jiu stood up and left, claiming that he would never come to Hejian Palace again in his life, but still
Before reaching the door, the princess appeared and called Wei Jiu to stay and have lunch together, and then Wei Jiu came back in a hurry.
The two people at the dinner table knew clearly what the Dongnu Kingdom meant. The Dongnu Kingdom wanted to attach itself to the increasingly powerful Tang Empire. They were worried about being swallowed up by Tubo or Tuyuhun, so they came up with this idea. The queen married a Tang Dynasty official.
.
But! She was too high up to marry Zhiminghou. This was the thought in the minds of all the officials of the Tang Dynasty, including Changsun Wuji and Changsun Shunde. Although they had some grudges with Wei Jiu, during the disaster relief in the Tang Dynasty, it was this one who contributed the most.
Wei Jiu, and he is indeed capable.
If Wei Jiu marries the king of the Eastern Lady Kingdom, it may only take thirty years for this daughter kingdom, which is regarded as a place of pleasure by many countries, to be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with several powerful countries today.
Therefore! No one in Chang'an will agree with this matter.
Li Er's words made the envoys of the Dongnu Kingdom very surprised. Could it be that the Tang Dynasty was already so powerful? But even so, they did not give up, and finally locked their eyes on Qin Huaiyu and Li Chongyi.
It seemed that the Dongnu Kingdom was bound to win this time. They investigated all the news about Zhiminghou, and when the Dongnu Kingdom envoy changed his mind, Wei Jiu and Li Xiaogong sighed at the same time when they met again.
"You little unscrupulous person, hey!"
Wei Jiu also sighed, saying nothing. Li Chongyi jumped in and refused to marry to the Dongnu Kingdom. The envoy from the Dongnu Kingdom claimed that the queen would come to the Tang Dynasty, and all matters were left to the decision of the Tang Dynasty National Preceptor and the Prime Minister of the Dongnu Kingdom. Then
Li Chongyi still refused and wallowed at home, claiming that he would imitate Wei Jiu and escape from Chang'an.
Two of the three people refused, but the envoy from the Dongnu Kingdom only chose one of the three of them, not the prince or the country's relative. Although it is a small country, the king of a small country also has dignity.
And Li Er didn't want to miss this opportunity. The envoy had already made it very clear that Dongnu Kingdom wanted to submit to the Tang Dynasty.
Wei Jiu and Li Chongyi simultaneously rejected the request of the envoy from the Dongnu Kingdom, which already made Li Er feel a little bit dissatisfied. He immediately ordered an edict to be sent to Liaodong and ordered Qin Huaiyu to return to Chang'an.
In Liangyi Palace, Li Er, Changsun, Wei Jiu, Li Chongyi, and the three royal brothers gathered here. Li Er wanted to hear the thoughts of these young people, but the most excited one was Li Chengqian. These people in front of him are all his future leaders.
Team.
Li Er knocked on the table and said softly.
"Li Chongyi, Wei Jiu! Listen to me, you two. I don't want to let go of the Dongnu Kingdom. It is a favorable terrain to suppress Tubo. Do you understand? As for why the king of the Dongnu Kingdom chose you three.
Why, you must also know in your heart, the Eastern Women's Kingdom wants to use this to protect their people and territory, besides! Just take the woman back and put it at home, why are you two unwilling? "
After finishing his words, Li Chengqian forced himself to speak.
"Your Majesty, me!! I will marry one person in this life. She must love me and I love her!"
Bang! Li Er's pen holder hit Li Chongyi on the head, and there was no point in cursing. A man's ambitions are in all directions, and his ambitions are on the battlefield. How can we talk about love? Li Chongyi was stunned by the hit, but he did not speak. Then Li Er looked at
Wei Wuliang's answer made Li Er furious.
"Your Majesty, I want to be among the beautiful flowers. I have no intention of getting married or marrying a wife in this life. After all, I like who will be my wife and who will be my concubine? Then if the queen agrees to have sex without getting married, I can still accept it.
."
Li Er stood up and crossed the table and rushed towards Wei Jiu. Li Chengqian and Chang Sun quickly stopped Li Er. After being stopped, Li Er pointed at Wei Jiu and Li Chongyi and yelled.
"One is focused on one woman, and the other is focused on a group of women. Do you two want to piss me off to death? This is a national event. A prince of the Tang Dynasty and a descendant of the royal family, can you two save me some trouble? Come on, give it all.
I'm getting out of here, Qin Huaiyu has already entered Chang'an, you get out of here."
This time the people in the palace were very obedient. Except for Li Chengqian, the remaining four guys turned around and ran away. They were going to meet Qin Huaiyu.
On Zhuque Street, Qin Huaiyu was walking on the street wearing bright armor and leading a horse. Because it was His Majesty's decree that he rush back to Chang'an quickly, and there was no time to gather the army. Qin Huaiyu lowered his head and walked forward. Suddenly there was a burst of chaos in front of him, and five people
There was a loud shout.
"I opened this road."
"I planted this tree."
"If you want to think about this way."
"Leave money to buy the way."
“Wine is fine too!”
Qin Huaiyu raised his head and looked at the five people in front of him, grinning.
"You heroes, I am just a soldier in the army, Qin Huaiyu. I only have this bright body, and I cannot give it to you heroes. I will give it to the one with the highest martial arts among you heroes."
There were many people watching on the street, pointing and pointing, but with smiles on their faces. Wei Jiu could no longer hide the smile on his lips and shouted loudly.
"You thief, how dare you sow discord between my brothers. My brother Qin Huaiyu is a scorned general in the army and my brother of Wei Wuliang. How dare you call him a nobody? I have such a bad temper. Damn you.
Why did you come back?"
The last roar was already vibrating. Qin Huaiyu was separated from Wei Jiu when he went to Turks. When he returned in triumph, Wei Jiu left Chang'an. When Wei Jiu returned to Chang'an, he went to Anton and was unable to do so because of some things.
Back, after many years, we finally met.
Qin Huaiyu suddenly lowered his head, holding the bright helmet under his arm. This guy who had been trained in the army for more than four years and was known as the little eunuch actually cried.
His shoulders were hunched, and he couldn't even say a complete sentence.
The five people in the distance did not speak, and just looked at Qin Huaiyu quietly. After a long time, Qin Huaiyu raised his head and roared loudly.
"I, Qin Huaiyu, do you dare to fight me?"
"Can't beat it, can't beat it!"
"Can't afford to offend, can't afford to offend!"
At the Tayun Restaurant, everyone came to greet Qin Huaiyu, but none of them drank. Their faces became a little gloomy, and there was no laughter.
Li Ke told his Majesty what was going on in calling him back to Chang'an to marry a woman in her mid-thirties. When he heard the news, Qin Huaiyu was slightly startled, glanced at Wei Jiu, and then dared not look at him.
Li Chongyi suddenly smiled and said.
"If he is really my brother, he knows that I like a woman of this age, and at the same time he can share the worries of His Majesty. Why not? If you drink this wine at night, how many brothers will enter the palace?"
Li Tai took Liu Wanzhi and claimed that he would not enter the palace and wanted to go to the hospital to deal with some matters. The remaining three accompanied Qin Huaiyu into the palace.
To be honest, both Wei Jiu and Li Chongyi felt a little guilty.
Also still in the Liangyi Hall, before Li Er could speak, Qin Huaiyu immediately spoke first.
"Your Majesty, the general is willing! Even if it means going to Dongnu Country, the general is willing. Please don't get angry with Chongyi and Unscrupulous."
Li Er smiled, and praised Qin Huaiyu again. At the same time, he rewarded the Qin family with many things. After the first step was solved, Li Er asked Wei Jiu to think of a way for him, how to make the Dongnu Kingdom
It became the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and they were willing to do so.
Wei Jiu was confused and confused.
"Your Majesty, why do you ask me everything? It's better to ask Mr. Changsun Wuji."
Wei Jiu wanted to say "Old Fox", but when he saw Chang Sun's eyes were like sharp swords, Wei Jiu changed his name, but Li Er shook his head.
"I have already asked the assistants, Fang Qiao, Chu Suiliang and others, and they have given me some advice, but you are the eminent lord of the Tang Dynasty, and I still want to hear your thoughts!"
"Ouch! No, no idea at all!"
"Okay, someone has come to draw up a decree. Wu King Li Ke will be expelled back to his fiefdom. Qin Huaiyu will go to the Eastern Women's Kingdom to serve. Li Chongyi will be granted the title of Lingnan Inspection Envoy. Wei Wangtai will return to his fiefdom. Liu Wanzhi will be grounded. Wei Wuliang will be sent to Yangzhou."
Wei Jiu was so angry that his tooth hurt and he squinted at Li Er.
"Are you going too far? Can you threaten me in another way? If you are like this, I will run away and not come back. I will buy an island and become the owner of it."
Li Er waved his hand impatiently.
"Stop talking nonsense and speak quickly!"
