723, marriage
A few days later, it was the first official court visit in January of the sixth year of the Tang Dynasty, and the officials in the capital had to participate. This can be said to be the first pilgrimage in the New Year, and the etiquette is particularly large. And all sorts of "ceremonial teams" have appeared, and they are also the most complicated. Officials of the ninth rank and above in Beijing must participate. In addition, today we will receive an envoy from the ambushed country to congratulate you. However, because Jingwen "invented" the method of envoys stationed abroad, nearby countries have sent some envoys to stay in Chang'an, and this kind of New Year's worship is also responsible for these envoys, and there will be no other envoys in China, so as to save costs!
When all the ministers of civil and military affairs settled the matter, everyone also walked into the Taiji Palace, which was the first thing to complete today. After all the rituals were rehearsed in advance, it was time to deal with various things, just like the usual pilgrimage.
"Ladies and gentlemen, just say something! Don't put things off, deal with it early, otherwise everyone will not have a good rest in the next few days! Li Shimin said.
According to the convention of the Tang Dynasty, the New Year can be a holiday, so everyone wants to get things done, so that they can feel at ease during the holiday. After all, no one wants to think about work during the holidays, which is of course the same in ancient and modern times.
"Your Majesty, we have nothing to do in Shangshu Province!" Du Ruhui said first.
"There's nothing to do in the middle of the book!" "It's okay to save the door!" ……
Hearing that everyone is fine, then it will be time for Li Shimin to have something.
"Since it's the New Year, let's be rejoicing, I have an edict to announce." Li Shimin said.
"The edict said, Pingyu County Gongda Tang Sanqi Chang Shi Zheng Research Office, director of the Tang Military Academy, sacrificed wine Jingwen, talented, loyal and patriotic...... I gave my eldest daughter, Princess Li Li, to marry Jingwen, hoping that Jingwen could make persistent efforts and be loyal to the emperor's court. For the benefit of the people! ”
Soon, this edict was finished, that is, Princess Changle was officially married.
Although many people speculated before that Princess Changle must only be able to marry Jingwen, in fact, as long as the emperor's marriage edict is not announced for a day, it means that there is no such thing. Recognition in the minds of the public and the so-called formal issuance of orders are completely different things. It's like at that time, Changsun Chong was already recognized by everyone as the master of the horse, but when that kind of thing happened later, it was tantamount to a failure. And now he was actually cut off by Jingwen. Changsun Chong couldn't say anything, because after all, there was no clear edict before.
And this edict, in fact, Li Shimin didn't want to send it, after all, Li Shimin was not willing to let his daughter be a concubine. But later, that is, about a few days ago, Jingwen cured Empress Changsun's asthma, so that Empress Changsun could live for a few more decades, which is equivalent to the life of a normal person. And this is a life-saving grace, the eldest grandson queen actually said that she should not make a fortune for Jing Wen's promotion.
And the so-called "family" of the eldest grandson queen. There is no need for a reward, which means that Jingwen is a family with Li Shimin, and there is no need for a reward. The reward is for the courtiers and for the servants. But Jingwen is a family, so there is no need to reward it, otherwise it will be too foreign. And the meaning of Empress Changsun is to let Li Shimin quickly settle the relationship between Jingwen and Princess Changle. That is, let Li Shimin quickly issue the edict of marriage. With this edict, it also shows the relationship between Jingwen and Princess Changle, and they can be regarded as a legitimate fiancé. It's not like it was just in everyone's speculation.
And although Li Shimin was reluctant to let his daughter be a concubine, in view of the meaning of the eldest grandson, Li Shimin had to agree. After all, Jingwen has a life-saving grace for the eldest grandson queen, and indirectly has a life-saving grace for Princess Changle, who has hereditary asthma, this kindness is too heavy. And his daughter Princess Changle also has a love for Jingwen, so what else can Li Shimin say? Jingwen saved his wife and daughter, and it is normal for him to marry his daughter, which is also in line with ancient traditions.
"Jingwen, don't you come out yet?" The eunuch said.
And Jingwen at this time, of course, he had to understand the reason and took the initiative to come out.
"Chen Jingwen, thank the emperor for his grace!" Jingwen said immediately.
Anyway, now Jingwen is married to a princess, and he can be regarded as the emperor's son-in-law. Of course, you have to be obedient, otherwise you will let others think of you!
"Hehe, Jingwen, do you still call me Emperor?" Li Shimin asked.
"The son-in-law has seen the father-in-law!" Jingwen immediately changed his words.
When those officials saw this situation, they all expressed envy, jealousy and hatred for Jingwen. Princess Changle is the eldest daughter of the emperor, and her identity is not the same at all! Originally, he was already determined to marry Changsun Chong, the son of Changsun Wuji, but now Changsun Wuji is out of play. Moreover, since Princess Changle was more than half a year ago, in order to protect Jingwen, she didn't even want her own name, which can be said to be that everyone knows that Changsun Chong is out of play. And after that, now the eldest grandson Wuji has also fallen, so it is even more impossible to be qualified to marry a princess. As for how the eldest grandson Wuji fell, no one can say clearly. Everyone is a little puzzled as to why such a "big fart" thing would bring down a courtier who was so trusted by the emperor. But the fall is the fall, there is no other way to say it.
Now Jingwen can be said to have stepped on the eldest grandson Wuji's family, but he did not let the eldest grandson queen who was born in the eldest grandson's family hate, but married his first biological daughter to Jingwen. I have to say that Jingwen is too powerful, and he has done this to the point of being a man, and he is really a bull fork.
became the husband of the emperor's eldest daughter, that is, the emperor's most important son-in-law, there is no one! After that, do you need to talk about the future? However, the most speechless thing for everyone is that Jingwen actually got on the bus first and then made up the ticket. At that time, Princess Changle claimed to be pregnant with Jingwen's child, but although it turned out to be false, this rumor also spread. Now Jingwen can say that the yellow mud has fallen off the crotch of his pants - it's not, it's. Everyone thought that Jingwen had done something to the princess, and then asked the emperor to marry Jingwen. Everyone is very disgusted by this behavior of getting on the bus first and then paying the ticket. Of course, there are still some people who regret why they didn't get in the car first at that time, anyway, Li Shimin can only pinch his nose and approve it at that time. (To be continued......)
