Datang: Stop pretending, you are a peerless expert

Chapter 542 The ministers objected to the marriage proposal

The highlight of today's court is how to determine Su Yu's credit.

Although Su Yu doesn't want an official position, he doesn't want rewards (Li Shimin gave too little, so he doesn't like it).

But as an emperor, if you don't reward for meritorious service, it will be difficult to convince the public.

Whether it is Su Yu's business or not is Li Shimin's attitude.

Most importantly, Li Shimin Xiang Zhuang's sword dance was intended for Pei Gong.

When Li Shimin spoke, the ministers below talked a lot:

"The consort's contribution is too great, it is difficult to set a reward."

"Commanding a large army to attack Goguryeo, entering Silla alone, and destroying Baekje without a single soldier from the Tang Dynasty."

"There is also the defeat of the Fusang State Navy and the conquest of the Silla State."

"Did you forget to reclaim the land of Liaodong? That is also the credit of the son-in-law."

All the ministers discussed fiercely in the audience how Su Yu should be rewarded.

This credit can only be compared with Li Shimin.

He once destroyed Xue Ju, defeated Liu Wuzhou, won Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande, and his credit is very high.

Li Yuan gave him the reward of General Tiance.

"I think General Tiance is feasible."

"No, General Tiance is second only to the Emperor."

The ministers are well aware of the importance of General Tiance, and one step ahead is the emperor, just like the gift of adding nine tins before.

General Tiance did not confer rewards at random.

The ministers talked a lot, but they couldn't make a decision.

Su Yu sat there looking bored.

Xue Ji sneaked over and stuffed Su Yu with a handful of melon seeds.

The little si and the queen sat on the building next to them, watching the excitement by the window.

"These ministers are really stupid, they don't know what the emperor means."

Little Si said.

"No, Zhongshu let the three of you know what your father wants to say."

Sure enough, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, and Du Ruhui winked and walked out.

Fang Xuanling came out to pay homage: "Qi Zou the emperor, the son-in-law destroyed the two countries and took over one country. He has made great contributions. I feel that there is no official position in the court that can be rewarded."

Du Ruhui followed suit and said: "Your Majesty, if we want to use money to reward, I'm afraid our treasury is not enough."

If two people sing together, it's not right to be promoted, and it's not right to give money.

The voices of the ministers talking and quarreling became louder.

"Is there no reward for meritorious service?"

"I heard that the emperor slapped the table to kill the son-in-law."

"I've also heard that it's in the Imperial Garden."

"Don't talk nonsense, no merit is rewarded."

The ministers began to think wrongly.

The last sentence of meritorious deeds is not rewarded--flying birds do their best to hide their bows, and cunning rabbits are cooked to death.

They actually thought that Li Shimin wanted to kill Su Yu.

Li Shimin coughed and gave Wei Zheng a wink.

Wei Zheng came out and bowed, "Your Majesty, I have something to do."

Wei Zheng came out to speak, and the others stopped.

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Duke Zheng, please tell me."

Wei Zheng said: "The son-in-law has made great contributions. Destroying a country and taking over a country with his own strength, such merits have never been seen since ancient times."

Su Yu's strength this time is that the army of Silla was used to destroy Baekje, and Datang did not send troops.

There is also the country of Silla, where the queen is determined to follow Datang, and the name of the country has been changed.

The ministers felt that what Wei Zheng said was reasonable.

Wei Zheng continued: "The son-in-law does not want to be an official, everyone knows that, and there is no official position in the court that is worthy of him."

"As for money, there is no shortage of consorts."

"So, I thought, it's better to give me a marriage."

Finally got to the point.

The little boy upstairs quickly leaned on the window.

The onlookers were not limited to Xiao Sizi and the queen.

Princess Gao Yang was listening behind the curtain in the next room.

"Princess, the emperor wants to give Princess Jinyang to his son-in-law."

Yuhe said.

Princess Gao Yang held a round fan in her hand and fanned it slightly, with an expression of indifference.

"Jinyang has been with her husband for so long, and it will be a matter of time before she gets through the door."

"Today's court meeting is to use the credit of destroying the country to silence the mouths of these ministers."

"Think about it, since ancient times, who can marry two princesses."

Princess Gao Yang is very smart, she knew what Li Shimin meant.

Yu He smiled and said, "Three."

Princess Gao Yang shook her head and sighed: "I don't count, I came here secretly."

Yuhe thought she had poked Princess Gaoyang's sore spot, so she hurriedly said, "This servant should die."

Princess Gao Yang waved her hand, she didn't care at all.

Her mother and concubine died early, and she was not welcomed by the queen.

Although she didn't have a grand marriage with Su Yu, it was enough to be with the person she liked, and she didn't care about those cutscenes.

Think about it, I will give you a wonderful marriage and live a lifetime with someone you don't like.

Or quietly spend a lifetime with the one you love?
Wu Zetian was also watching.

The two sisters Wu Shun and Wu Yi accompanied Wu Zetian and stood behind the window to watch the fun.

"Sister, there is one more."

Wu Yi said with an envious and jealous tone.

Wu Zetian snorted coldly: "Jinyang's entry is also after me. When you see me, you should respectfully call me sister."

The empress is an empress, although she is a commoner, she never cowards.

After Wei Zheng finished speaking, the minister Weng exploded.

Everyone in the ruling and opposition parties knew that Princess Changle and Princess Jinyang lived with Su Yu when they were young.

When Wei Zheng said that the marriage was given, any fool would guess that it must be Princess Jinyang.

It is absurd for a son-in-law to marry two princesses.

The military generals in the DPRK fought with Su Yu and had a close relationship, so they had nothing to say.

The civil servants in the court were not the same. They talked a lot and felt that there was no such thing.

"Zheng Guogong, why did you say such absurd words?"

"The son-in-law has already married Princess Changle, and another marriage will be granted."

"Zheng Guogong, you are a well-educated person, please tell me, in which dynasty there are two princesses who marry a son-in-law?"

"Absolutely not, it will be infamous forever."

The ministers strongly opposed it.

Su Yu sat on the seat and ate melon seeds, and quickly ate up a handful of melon seeds.

Li Shimin sat on it, stepped on the tiger's head, and listened to the opposition from below.

This time the reaction of the ministers was beyond his expectation.

He thought that the ministers would call the emperor wise.

After all, this is a matter related to Su Yu.

Think about the construction of the highway back then, such a nonsense thing, all the ministers of the DPRK and China agreed.

Li Shimin coughed dryly and said, "My dear friends, what can I say?"

Secretary Supervisor Yu Shinan came out to pay homage: "Your Majesty, although the son-in-law has made great contributions, he cannot exceed the rules of etiquette."

Li Daozong, Minister of Honghe Temple, also said: "Your Majesty, I don't have such things in the Central Plains, only Xianbei people do."

Other ministers strongly opposed it.

Li Shimin felt that the matter was very difficult, but he did not expect these ministers to oppose it so fiercely.

Fang Xuanling said: "My lords, there are some folks who have sisters who marry together. Why can't the princess?"

Yu Shinan shook his head and said, "How can the Emperor's House be compared with the Prime Minister of Guizhou?"

Du Ruhui chuckled and said, "Weddings and funerals are human nature. The common people can do it, why can't the emperor's family do it?"

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui echoed vigorously.

They knew that Su Yu would give them great credit for accomplishing this.
