Great Tang Southern Emperor

Facing Li Shimin's pressure directly is stronger than Changsun Wuji imagined, but thinking of... or...

Resisting the trembling in his heart, Changsun Wuji respectfully said: "My Majesty, it is a foregone conclusion that the King of Yue will sweep Nanyang, but he is fighting in the front, and I am afraid that he has no time to care about the rear. He does not care about the head and the tail, which will inevitably lead to the rear. Confusion...what I mean is, should we send a representative in the name of His Majesty to calm people's minds?"

"Stable people? Why do you want to calm people?" Cheng Yaojin asked back: "In the plan of the king of Yue, all the aborigines in Nanyang are going to be demoted to slaves. Why did Hou Junji bring a hundred thousand troops? Isn't it just to catch them?" Are you going to catch slaves? You will be reduced to slaves, tell me, how can the people's hearts be stable?"

Chapter 465 There Are More Than Three (Third)

Chapter 238 There Are More Than Three (Third)

Yuchi Jingde's words are more concise: "There are only two kinds of people in Nanyang, one is the people of Tang Dynasty, and the other is slaves. There is no third kind of people."

"You can't say that." Changsun Wuji said seriously: "There are not only aborigines in Nanyang, but there are still many survivors of my Central Plains there. The aborigines will be captured as slaves. Don't tell me you are going to send these compatriots as well. Captured as a slave?"

"But how many compatriots in Nanyang are there in total? His Highness the King of Yue is enough to appease him. Why do we need the emperor to send another representative?" Fang Xuanling also did not support Changsun Wuji's proposal.

But Li Shimin said: "No, what Zhen Fuji said is very reasonable-Nanyang will be our territory in the future, and we will need to continue to immigrate there in the future. Now send a special envoy of the emperor to help Zhen'er stabilize the rear. It is still very necessary. But, auxiliary machine, which talented person do you think should be here, capable of making this trip?"

Why did Changsun Wuji not understand that Li Shimin had already penetrated his own innocence, wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, calmed down, and said: "I feel that if you want to stabilize the new land, then ordinary generals or ministers must not be able to do it. The status of a special envoy must be noble enough, it is best to be a royal family, if it is a prince, it is even better, if it is a direct prince..."

"Oh..." Changsun Wuji had already said this, why didn't everyone understand what he meant?

It's nothing more than wanting Li Shimin to send another prince to share Li Zhen's credit, and at the same time add some trouble to Li Zhen - as the special envoy of the emperor, he is the imperial envoy, and with the status of a prince, can't he give advice on local government affairs?

However, Li Shimin couldn't refuse this proposal, otherwise it would definitely cause dissatisfaction among his sons—what?We have all given up the position of crown prince to Lao Ba, and now we want to take some credit, father, will you not allow it?When he was eight or four years old, you let him take credit with Li Jing.Now that we're here, won't you allow it?Father, how unfair are you?

But if it was really sent to Nanyang, and if it was Li Shimin's direct son...then the one who was sent must be Li Chengqian.

First of all, Li Shimin has a total of three direct sons. Among them, Li Zhi, the ninth son, is still young and too weak to travel far.

Although the fourth son Li Tai is old enough, Li Shimin would probably feel distressed if he went. Li Shimin would not even let him go as an official, let alone Nanyang, where the environment is even harsher?And Li Tai's health is also not good, he is too fat...

Li Zhi and Li Tai couldn't go, so the only one who could go was Li Chengqian—although Li Chengqian was abolished as the crown prince and imprisoned in the cold palace, Li Shimin did not demote him as a commoner after all, but granted him a He is the King of Hengshan, so it can be said that his subordinates are merciful.

Moreover, deep in Li Shimin's heart, there was another reason why he had to send Li Chengqian out - now Chang'an city is mixed with fish and dragons, and the situation is becoming more and more unpredictable. will be more confusing.

Even in the palace, it may be difficult to guarantee Li Chengqian's safety, and it is difficult to guarantee that no one will say that Li Chengqian is kidnapped to achieve some ulterior motives.It's better to take this opportunity to put it next to Li Zhen and put it in the youth army - anyway, it's hard to say that there are only Nanyang natives left in that place except the Tang army. If there are any strange faces, you can tell them at a glance. It is safer to identify it.

The issue is……

Li Chengqian and Li Zhen had a blood-to-toe feud. After all, Li Chengqian lost the position of the crown prince, more than half of the reasons were due to Li Zhen, and the position of the crown prince seemed to fall on Li Zhen's head—— If it is said that Li Chengqian has no hatred for Li Zhen in his heart, it is absolutely impossible.

If Li Chengqian is really given the status of special envoy, there is no guarantee that he will not intervene in Nanyang government affairs, hinder Li Zhen, or even directly collude with foreign enemies to bury Li Zhen and the Boys Army—don’t think that Li Chengqian will not do such things, Sometimes hatred can blind people's eyes. If some people with ulterior motives provoke him, no one knows what Li Chengqian will do.

This is also the reason why Li Shimin is entangled...

"Your Majesty, I have a proposal." Ever since there were omissions in Yushitai, and Li Chengqian was abolished, Wei Zheng is quite low-key now (Wei Zheng has an identity as the prince and grand teacher, and the prince is abolished, of course he has to take responsibility as a teacher. Part of the responsibility), go home directly after going to court every day, neither visit friends nor accept visits from outsiders, and live in seclusion.

He is also so low-key in the court meeting, and basically does not open his mouth until the key matters.However, he kept a low profile a lot, but Wei Zheng's ability became more and more powerful, either he didn't speak, or he just hit the nail on the head.

Although very low-key, her nature has not changed much. She is still dedicated to serving the public and cannot tolerate sand in her eyes.Seeing Li Shimin made a mistake, he still reprimanded him, but his words were sharp, which repeatedly made Li Shimin unable to step down, making Li Shimin love, anger, anger and hatred.

Now that Wei Zheng heard Changsun Wuji's proposal, why didn't he understand his little thoughts?How could he let Changsun Wuji get what he wanted?Immediately, he couldn't sit still anymore, and stood up to make an idea.

Li Shimin was worried, when he heard the words, he seemed to see a rescuer, and hurriedly said: "Xuan Cheng, if you have any suggestion, just say it."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wei Zheng held the wat board and said respectfully: "First of all, I agree with Lord Sikong's proposal, but the Emperor and Empress Wende have three sons together. It’s inconvenient to travel far, the only one who can go to Nanyang is King Hengshan.”

"..." Li Shimin was in a hurry, winking at Wei Zheng frequently, you bastard, of course these old men know, do you still need to talk about it?Am I not just struggling with this?With Chengqian's temperament, it would be strange if he didn't pick up with Zhen'er when he got to the place.

"However, after all, King Hengshan is wearing a sinful body. If he serves as a special envoy with a sinful body..." Although he didn't see Li Shimin's eyes, what he wrote down still made Li Shimin happy, and also made the eldest grandson Wu who was half excited Avoid, like falling into an abyss.

Li Shimin nodded slowly and said, "It makes sense, then what Xuan Cheng meant was..."

Wei Zheng smiled suddenly, and reminded with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't forget that there are not only three princes among the children of you and Empress Wende."

Chapter 466 What do you guys think of Sizi? (fourth more)

Chapter 239 What do you think of Sizi? (fourth more)

"Not only three sons?" Li Shimin murmured and repeated, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Yes, I don't only have three sons, I also have a daughter. It's just a special envoy, whoever said it must be a man Pregnant? A daughter is fine too, Linyi already has a queen, so what does it matter if I send a daughter as a special envoy?"

"But Your Majesty, there is no such precedent for using a woman as an envoy, not only in my Tang Dynasty, but even going back 2000 years." Li Daozong (Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites) couldn't help but asked with some embarrassment: "I don't know the etiquette of the emperor's special envoy. Specifications, which specification should I use?"

"Eh... This idea was proposed by Xuan Cheng, Cheng Fan (Li Daozong's name) should ask Xuan Cheng." Li Shimin was so worried, he was only happy, and completely forgot about this, and now Li Daozong asked him , can only throw the ball to Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng, however, seemed to have a plan in mind, and said to himself: "I have already made an opinion on this matter, and this matter is actually very easy to resolve. Since there is no precedent, let's take it as a precedent. I feel that both the princess and the prince are blood relatives of His Majesty." , then let’s follow the prince’s standards—whatever the prince’s mission is, the princess’ mission can follow the same standard.”

"It makes sense, so let's do it this way." At present, this is the only way.

Changsun Wuji asked: "But, which princess should we send?"

"What's your opinion?"

"My Majesty, Princess Xiangcheng is the eldest daughter of the Emperor and the elder sister of the King of Yue. I think that Princess Xiangcheng is the most suitable." Xiao Yu couldn't sit still, and was the first to stand up and recommend.As for why he recommended Princess Xiangcheng, the reason is very simple, because Princess Xiangcheng is his daughter-in-law—and if she goes to Nanyang as an envoy, as long as the trip goes well, she is lying on her back and taking credit for it. Naturally, I have to fight for such benefits. Grab some.

The eldest grandson Wuji said in a strange way: "Princess Xiangcheng? Lord Xiao made a good idea, but Princess Xiangcheng is already married and has children... Lin Yishan is high and the water is far away. If you go all the way, even if everything goes well, then You won't be able to come back for at least a year, the young couple have been separated for a year, aren't you afraid that your son will blame you?"

Xiao Yu was so angry that his beard was about to stand up, and he said angrily: "You... Changsun Wuji, don't make sarcastic remarks, if you don't succeed as a princess of Xiangcheng, then you have the ability to say something suitable."

"You don't need to remind me, I will tell you." Changsun Wuji snorted coldly, bowed to Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, there is indeed a more suitable candidate here, and that is Princess Changle. Princess Changle is naturally beautiful, gentle and generous. She has a dignified manner... More importantly, Princess Changle is the eldest daughter of His Majesty, her status is unparalleled, and she is the best candidate to be the special envoy."

"Fuck... just now I saw you mocking Xiao Yu so much, I thought you could name someone, and you are no better than Xiao Yu? You are still your daughter-in-law? Although it is just A prospective daughter-in-law, but the problem is that the marriage is fixed, who would dare to rob your son of his wife?"

This was the unanimous thought of everyone at the moment, and they scolded Changsun Wuji in their hearts for being shameless.Hearing his righteous words just now, I thought Changsun Wuji was so clear about public and private affairs, who knew that he was still fighting for opportunities for his prospective daughter-in-law.

(Because of Li Zhen's intentional or unintentional interference, although Princess Changle and Changsun Chong have already agreed to get married, their wedding has not yet taken place, so they can only be regarded as prospective daughter-in-laws.)

"No, Princess Changle has always been in poor health. If something goes wrong during such a long journey... I think Princess Gaoyang is more suitable." Fang Xuanling didn't have any other ideas. , Princess Gaoyang is still his daughter-in-law, but now Fang Yiai has married Huihe Princess Ugeya, so naturally there is no way to marry the princess. It just means presence.

"Isn't Princess Gaoyang too young?" Fang Xuanling's indifference does not mean that others will not. After he mentioned the name of Princess Gaoyang, Cheng Yaojin jumped out and retorted: "I think Princess Qinghe might be more suitable. a little."

The reason he recommended this princess was the same as that of Xiao Yu - Princess Qinghe was his daughter-in-law, who was married to his second son, Cheng Chuliang.

"Princess Qinghe is also a little young. I think Princess Yuzhang is very suitable. Although Princess Yuzhang is not a direct daughter, she was adopted by the queen since she was a child. Not a direct daughter is better than a direct daughter, and she is also old enough. Princess Yuzhang is very suitable... ..." Princess Yuzhang married Tang Yishi, the fifth son of Tang Jian.Although Tang Jian was sick by Li Shimin and is still recuperating at home, he has a lot of old officials in the imperial court. Under the current situation, naturally someone is willing to speak for him.

"I recommend Princess Nanping..." Needless to say, the person who said this was Wang Gui, because Princess Nanping's husband, Wang Jingzhi, is Wang Gui's son...

"The minister proposes Princess Sui'an as a special envoy..."

"I recommend Princess Beijing..."

"I think Princess Pu'an is more suitable..."

"Princess Dongyang should do better..."

"I think..."

"You are all wrong, or..."
