Chapter 2235: The Three Little Ones’ Marriage
Concubine Wei's comfort made Empress Changsun feel much better. In her traditional concept, women should get married at around 15 years old.
For example, she married Li Shimin at the age of thirteen and gave birth to three sons and four daughters.
She had also heard of Li Shen's remarks.
"Sister, I wonder which one Chengyang and Hengshan have chosen?"
Concubine Wei changed the subject.
"Yes......"
Just as Empress Chang Sun was about to speak, she heard a report coming from outside.
"Your Majesty has arrived~~~~~~"
When Empress Changsun and Concubine Wei heard this, they hurriedly stood up and prepared to go out to greet him. As soon as they reached the door, they saw Li Shimin walking in with big strides.
"Hahahaha, Guanyinbi, you are here too."
"Your Majesty." Everyone began to salute.
"No thanks." Li Shimin waved his hand and walked in.
"Erlang, how come you have time to come here today?"
After the three of them sat down, Empress Chang Sun asked with a smile.
"Look at what Guanyin said. I don't have anything to do on weekdays. It's only natural for me to come to Daji Palace to see the imperial concubine.
Why did you come here today for no reason?" Li Shimin asked immediately after hearing this.
"Haha, I come here often, but Erlang doesn't come here usually, so he doesn't know."
Empress Changsun smiled gently, which made Li Shimin feel a little embarrassed. He had indeed not been here for a long time.
"What were you talking about just now?" Li Shimin could only change the subject.
"Your Majesty, my sister and I were just discussing the marriage of Princess Chengyang and her husband," replied Concubine Wei.
"Oh? Guanyinbi, can you choose a good man for Chengyang and the others' marriage?"
Hearing this, Li Shimin began to ask, and he was also very anxious about the marriages of his three daughters.
But you can't just get married.
"Erlang, I have already selected candidates for Hengshan and Chengyang, only Sizi has not yet chosen a good man."
"I wonder which family this child is from?" Li Shimin asked immediately.
"The person chosen for Chengyang was Xue Guan, the son of Xue Huaiyu, the Minister of the Imperial Guards, who was a member of the Xue family in Hedong. He was also the Minister of the Imperial Household.
This boy is a steady person. He has been studying since he was young and is quite talented.
The one selected for Hengshan was Changsun Quan, the son of Changsun Cao, the chief officer of the Yangzhou Military Governor's Office and the Duke of Leshou County. He was the Imperial Nurture Officer. It was said that Changsun Quan was a handsome man with great talent, good looks, and both military and literary skills.
Empress Changsun explained to Li Shimin the candidates she had chosen one by one.
After hearing this, Li Shimin recalled that he did not know Changsun Quan and Xue Guan, but he still had some impression of Zhang Xue Huaiyu and Changsun Cao.
Both of them came from prominent families, so it was not considered a disgrace to the royal family.
The important thing is that both of them have clean backgrounds, especially Changsun Quan, who is from the Changsun family. Changsun Cao is also the uncle of Empress Changsun. The two are from the same branch and have the same great-grandfather.
It can be considered a close relationship.
"Erlang, what do you think?" Empress Changsun asked Li Shimin for his opinion.
Li Shimin nodded:
"Well, that's right. I am very confident in the person you have chosen, Guanyin. Do you have a candidate for Sizi?"
"Alas~ The one who worries me the most is Sizi. I have picked several men, but they were all rejected by Sizi." Empress Changsun sighed.
"Oh? Why? Isn't she my good husband?" Li Shimin asked.
"I have chosen people from good families, with excellent character and talent, but I don't like Si Zi."
Empress Chang Sun was worried. She also picked some people to ask Sizi for their opinions, but the little girl didn't like any of them.
"If she doesn't like him, forget it. I can afford to keep him for a few more years. I just don't know what kind of man she wants to find, so I can send someone to look for him."
Li Shimin loved these daughters very much.
Just like Princess Hengshan, it was stipulated in etiquette and law that famous mountains, big rivers and counties within the capital could not be granted titles.
But Li Shimin chose to confer the title of Princess Hengshan on her, which shows how much he loved her.
"This is exactly what worries me. Sizi once said that she wanted to find a husband as capable as Shen'er.
Be extremely smart and rich.”
This is what Empress Changsun was worried about. There was no other person like Li Shen in the world, and even if there was, he would not appear at this time.
Not to mention whether His Majesty would agree or not, even his adopted son would not agree. He was beaten down as soon as he showed up.
There can't be two tigers in one mountain. One Li Shen is enough for the Tang Dynasty.
"Humph, she dares to think that it is not enough for the Tang Dynasty to have such a scourge, but she wants to have a second one?
You should let her give up on this idea as soon as possible.
Even if there is, I will nip it in the bud." Li Shimin snorted coldly after hearing this.
This disaster has caused me to live ten years less, and my daughter wants to give birth to another one. Isn't this asking for my life?
Fighting one of them requires a lot of effort, and occasionally tough measures have to be used. If there were two such troubles, the Tang Dynasty would probably have perished in the second generation just like the pre-Qin Dynasty.
When Concubine Wei heard what Li Shimin said, her eyebrows twitched unconsciously.
His son has now been classified as a scourge, which shows that he has done something that has angered God and the people.
"Erlang, don't be angry. I think it's better to wait for Shen'er to come back and let Shen'er persuade him.
Sizi has been close to Shen'er since she was a child, so this is probably why she had this idea."
Empress Changsun suggested.
"Don't you understand Sizi's mind? She just wants to find a rich man so that she can squander her money.
I usually tell her to go to Prince Ji's Mansion less often. As a princess, she is a lady from a noble family and should be dignified and generous.
Look at how spoiled she has become by the Tenth Master. He always gives Sizi so much money that she has developed a habit of being greedy for money."
Li Shimin became angrier and angrier as he spoke. His daughter, whom he had raised with great difficulty, was led astray by that rebellious son.
The princess seldom left the palace, so her salary was not much.
In Chengyang, Sizi and the others started to think of ways to solve the problem. The eldest brother, the prince, was extremely poor, and the fourth and ninth brothers became serious as they grew up, so they did not dare to ask for money.
Only the tenth brother, who was about the same age as them, was idle and liked to have fun, and was very nice to them.
So when he ran out of money, he would go to Prince Ji's mansion to ask for it, and Li Shen would always give him some small change as pocket money.
After a while, I developed the habit of spending money lavishly.
"Erlang, you can't say that. It's a good thing that Shen'er loves his sisters. He's better than his other brothers.
I hope they can be closer, after all, they are siblings.
There will be someone to take care of you in the future.
As the crown prince, Gao Ming is busy with state affairs all day long. How can he take care of them in the future? He still has to rely on Shen Er."
When Empress Changsun heard what Li Shimin said, she retorted that she loved her three younger daughters even more and was always wondering whether she would suffer after a hundred years.
After Li Chengqian became emperor, he had no time to take care of them. Now that Li Shen was taking care of her, Empress Changsun was so happy that she couldn't contain herself.
As for the two sons Li Tai and Li Zhi, it seems that they can no longer be relied on.
(I work during the day, sleep at night, get up to work, and then go to work again. I am more tired than going to work.)
