Back to Tang Dynasty to be Emperor

The people of Suzhou returned to the Tang Dynasty and celebrated together.The prince got married and had fun with the people.It was supposed to be a happy event, but there were many people who were worried. Both Li Ke and Li Chengqian were frowning because of the upcoming wedding.A few days ago, the Imperial Physician Zhang Dezhong of the Imperial Hospital received news from Binzhou that Hou Ruoyi was indeed seriously ill, and he might not be cured years ago.When the Tang court received the news from Binzhou, it made a decree to let Su Juan, the daughter of the secretary Cheng Su, marry the prince Li Chengqian, and the prince's wedding will be held as scheduled.Therefore, Li Ke was very worried when he confirmed from Zhang Dezhong's message that Hou Ruoyi was seriously ill.The reason for Prince Li Chengqian's misery is that he did not marry Hou Ruoyi as he wished, and he had never met Su's daughter Su Juan, so he was worried about the appearance and temper of this princess.

The end of the new year is approaching, and more than ten days will come in an instant, and there is only one day left before December 25, the day of the prince's wedding.Red happy characters were hung in Chang'an city to show that the prince got married and had fun with the people.Sitting in the front hall drinking tea in front of the huge plaque with the Chinese characters “Happy” hanging on the door of Su’s Mansion in Xuanyangfang, Su looked at the busy servants and maids in the garden, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.His daughter betrothed the prince to be his side concubine, which had already been ordered, but he did not expect that an imperial decree ten days ago would change the fate of him and his daughter.The imperial decree said that Su Juan should be betrothed to the prince as the concubine, and she would marry the prince on December 25, and there was another imperial decree for him. After the prince got married, he would be promoted and released as the governor of Taizhou.He was originally the Secretary Cheng from the fifth rank in the Secretary Province, but now he has been promoted to the Taizhou Inspector of the fourth rank, and his official position has been promoted two consecutive levels.Su knew that it was because his daughter was betrothed to the crown prince and the emperor gave him a reward.

Su was in a daze. What happened ten days ago and the upcoming wedding tomorrow were as real and terrifying as a dream, and everything in front of him was like a dream.

"Husband, what are you thinking, I didn't hear you when I called you?" Su's wife, Mrs. Liu, came to the front hall at some point, and she said with a worried face, "I don't know if it is a disaster for Juan'er to be made the crown princess." Is it a blessing? If she has a bad life and suffers in the future, what should I do as a mother? I am only such a daughter." Madam Su saw that she was a woman from a noble family, and she thought about problems differently from others.If my daughter marries the crown prince as a side concubine, then everything will be fine. Now that she has become a crown prince, she is the future queen. Many people are staring at this position. How can she have a better life in the future?That's why she told Su about her worries.

"Ma'am, it's too much. It's a blessing for the little girl Juan'er to be married to the prince. How can she suffer?" Su comforted Liu, "After my daughter gets married, we should also prepare to go to Taizhou to take office. She can live happily ever after."

"Imperial decree!" Su Zheng and Liu Shi were talking in the living room when they heard a slender and hoarse voice shouting outside the door. Under the leadership of the general, they filed in and surrounded the Su residence tightly.Su and Mrs. Liu didn't know, so when they walked out of the living room, they went up to inquire, and saw a handsome servant about thirty years old walking out of the living room and said, "Secretary Cheng Su accepts the order."

Su went forward to kneel down, and the servant finished reading the long imperial edict, and then helped Su who was kneeling in front of him and said, "Please rise up, Inspector Su, Ling Ai is going to marry the prince tomorrow, and Zhang Quan is here to congratulate Inspector Su." .”

"Congratulations, congratulations." Su did not dare to offend Zhang Quan. Although he was only a servant, a servant who could pass orders was definitely a powerful person in the palace.

Zhang Quan didn't stay long, and left Su's mansion after the decree was announced, while the guards who came with him stayed behind. The general just now stepped forward to salute Su when he saw Zhang Quan left, and then said, "Finally. The prince's left guard and the mansion guard led the division to guard the princess under the order of the prince, and Su Shishi will forgive me."

From the imperial decree just now, Su already knew that the guards in front of him were people from the prince's left and right guards. They were ordered to guard Su's house. The purpose was to protect the safety of the crown princess and ensure the safety of the prince's big wedding tomorrow.Naturally, Su didn't dare to be negligent, and said politely, "I have to thank you, General, and please come to the living room for tea."

Shi Jin bowed his hands politely and said, "You don't need to use tea, and you don't need to bother Su Shi if you still have important things to do." After Shi Jin finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the soldiers led by Zuo Wei divided into several teams and sent Su's mansion up and down. It is in their hands.Su knew that Shi Jin had a heavy responsibility, so he didn't bother him. As soon as he and his wife Liu Shi returned to the living room, they saw a group of court ladies coming in from the door. They were court ladies who were specially serving Su Juan to bathe and change clothes under the order of Empress Changsun.Mrs. Su dared not neglect the people sent by Empress Changsun, and invited them to Su Juan's boudoir.Su looked at everything in front of him, and the excitement just now that his daughter married the prince had long since disappeared. At the same time, he sighed in his heart, "The royal family is the royal family. No matter if you marry your daughter to them as the princess, in their eyes you It's just a small assassin."

Hanwang Mansion, Juyi Hall, Li Ke and everyone gathered together to discuss the prince's wedding.Su Dingfang was still not there, and now he has returned to the new army camp in Xishan.Ma Zhou, Xu Jingzong, and Liu Rengui in the hall had serious expressions.Because Chen Qi recovered quickly, he returned to Beijing two days ago.Because of his outstanding achievements in Mobei, Li Ke was able to arrange a seat for him in the Juyi Hall. This was the first time he sat down to discuss issues with everyone in the Hanwang Palace. He was obviously very uncomfortable and seemed a little reserved.Qian Ning was also invited to Juyi Hall by Li Ke. He was not as reserved as Chen Qi, but because he was an outsider, he also felt very uncomfortable with the crowd.

Li Ke gathered everyone together, first of all, he told everyone that as a member of the Han Palace, he prepared a gift for everyone and gave it to Prince Li Chengqian to express their love for the prince's wedding.Seeing that Li Ke was so thoughtful and thoughtful of them, everyone was very grateful.

The second thing is about this year's New Year's Eve. Many people in the Hanwang Mansion are bachelors and have no family in Chang'an City. Ning et al.Many people did not get married, and their parents were not in the capital, such as Su Dingfang, Liu Rengui and Xu Jingzong.Therefore, he wanted to make good arrangements for their lives in Chang'an before he went to Bingzhou. He specially bought a mansion for each of them in Pingkangfang not far from Hanwang's Mansion so that they could have a seat after he left Chang'an. own courtyard.

When Chen Qi heard that Li Ke had also bought him a mansion, he was completely moved.He was born as a commoner and has no skills other than brute force. In the system of the Tang army where the children of the gentry were promoted, if he did not go to the battlefield, he would not be promoted at all.However, needless to say, he was promoted after following Li Ke, and now he can have his own mansion in a prime location like Pingkangfang, which is something he never dreamed of.Therefore, if Li Ke hadn't stopped him, he would kneel down and thank him in excitement.Similarly, Ma Zhou, Xu Jingzong, and Liu Rengui were also very excited. It wasn't that Li Ke bought them a mansion that touched their hearts, but Li Ke's attitude towards his subordinates and his behavior of thinking about his subordinates made them feel excited. They feel that it is their honor to be able to assist such a prince.

After arranging everything, Li Ke went back to the study and asked Yang En about the money in the treasury. Although the money was not a lot, it was usable, which reassured him a lot.Then, he lazily lay on the chair, waiting for Li Chengqian's wedding tomorrow.He also wanted to see what kind of woman Su Juan, Li Chengqian's concubine, Su's daughter, was, who could be recommended by the ministers to be canonized as the concubine.

The next day, Maoshi.Lan'er and all the maids began to serve Li Ke to bathe and change clothes. After Lan'er's startling dressing up, Li Ke, who was dressed in the robe of the Prince of Wulong Minghuang, looked extraordinarily handsome, and the determination between his brows made him look even more heroic.Lan'er stared at the heroic Li Ke obsessively, and found that Li Ke was looking at her with ill intentions. She hurriedly withdrew her gaze, bowed her head in silence, and the blush on her face made her look like a flower in need of love and affection. roses.

"Little girl, what are you looking at? Have you ever seen such a handsome King of Han?" Li Ke teased.

Lan'er was embarrassed by what Li Ke said, she lowered her head and whispered, "Your Highness, you are making fun of the maidservant again. Your Highness is the most handsome King of Han." After she finished speaking, she suddenly felt that she had been deceived by Li Ke. Even lower, "The time has come, His Highness should also prepare to enter the palace to go to the Tai Chi Hall, otherwise I'm afraid we will be late."

"Lan'er is getting older, and she's starting to think about spring, ha ha!" Li Ke left the room with a slight smile, and Lan'er, who was left ashamed, didn't know where to hide.

Li Ke left the palace of the King of Han, and under the escort of Chen Qi and Zhu Tong, the middle chief of the black-clothed Shuangsha king, entered the Suzaku gate and came to Chengtian gate.After getting off the frame, he walked to the Tai Chi Hall of Tai Chi Palace.

The Taiji Hall is the main hall of the Taiji Palace. The emperor ascended the throne, canonized the queen, canonized the prince, entertained foreign guests and other banquets were held in the Taiji Hall, so the place where Li Chengqian got married was the Taiji Hall.When Li Ke came to the Taiji Hall, he found that most of the ministers had been waiting for a long time. He went up to greet Li Tai, Li You and other princes, and then he greeted every official before he stood aside and waited for Li Shimin and Prince Li Chengqian .

The crown prince's big wedding is not like the common people, just welcome the bride to the mansion to worship and get married.First of all, you have to accept the emperor's canonization of the princess in the Taiji Hall, and then go to the ancestral temple to worship the heavens and ancestors, and then the banquet in the worship hall and the bride and groom toast with the congratulatory people.Not long after Li Ke waited in the Taiji Hall, Li Shimin, Empress Changsun, Concubine Yang and other harem concubines came slowly. Afterwards, Li Chengqian and the Crown Princess came to the Taiji Hall under the escort of the Tai left and right guards.

Li Chengqian and Crown Princess Su Juan accepted Li Shimin's canonization in the Taiji Hall, then went to the ancestral temple to worship the heavens and ancestors, and then returned to the Taiji Hall to entertain the officials. It was already Shenshi in the afternoon.Li Chengqian first toasted to Li Shimin and the queens and concubines, and then to the royal family of the Tang Dynasty. Li Ke, Li Tai and Li You also belonged to this line, and then toasted to the officials.too
