" Mission: Defeat all the candidates to become the Prince Consort and become the husband of Princess Taiping, the number one Prince Consort of the Tang Empire. Only then will it be easier for the host to prepare for the Emperor of the Tang Empire. This is an opportunity to defy the heavens and change fate.”
"After the mission is successful, the rewards will be given out. If the mission fails, the change of fate will end. Everything will proceed according to the normal course of history.”
To be honest, if it was Xue Shao from Earth, he would have been satisfied with this identity. However, the current him was completely uninterested in the so-called " First Prince Consort of the Great Tang ". In his opinion, that was at most the ultimate dream of a pretty woman.
But now Xue Shao didn't want to do it at all. Firstly, he wanted to marry a woman he didn't know. Xue Shao didn't like this kind of practice, just like the blind dates in the later generations. Most of them just wanted to find a suitable person to live with and love. This was like selling oneself to the other party after meeting and discussing the price. Secondly, the princess of the Great Tang was not easy to marry. Being the emperor's son-in-law of the Great Tang was a profession with a high harvest of cuckolds and a high risk factor. Starting from Princess Gao Yang, there was this kind of atmosphere. In the Tang Dynasty, there were many people who cheated on their wives. There were 23 princesses who remarried, nearly twice as many as in the Han Dynasty.
In history, Xue Shao and Princess Taiping lived together for seven years and had two sons and two daughters.
Those seven years were also the only peaceful time for the historical beauty, Princess Taiping, after she became an adult. Later, Xue Shao died in prison because he was involved in a major rebellion case. Princess Taiping could only bring his sorrow and pain along with the children of the Xue family to remarry Wu Youji. From then on, Princess Taiping's temperament changed drastically. She only fought for power and eventually went crazy and perished.
More importantly, in the next few years, Wu Zetian would ascend to the throne, and Princess Taiping would definitely be surrounded by undercurrents.
He didn't want to be like Xue Shao in history, who married a red/pink skeleton and lived happily for a few years before dying. Then, his wife was slept with, his money was spent, his child was beaten, and he was cuckolded countless times when he met the King of Hell.
Xue Shao did not accept his fate. If he wanted to live, he would live brilliantly. If he wanted to stand, he would stand at the highest point.
I want to be the emperor.
"Is there any connection between being the emperor and being the son-in-law?”Xue Shao could not help but ask. Princess Taiping did not have a good influence in history. According to unofficial historical records, Princess Taiping had had an affair with many people, so Xue Shao did not want to be associated with Princess Taiping.
"Of course, the Emperor is determined by bloodline. If you don't have any, there will be great resistance to becoming the Emperor. In the Great Tang, bloodline determines everything.”
Xue Shao broke out in a cold sweat. Forget it. The Tang Empire was like the sun at its zenith. His head would probably fall to the ground before he could even raise his army. Moreover, he was only a Postliminary Realm martial artist. He would probably not be able to withstand a single breath from the old emperor, Li Zhi.
The Tang Dynasty indeed placed great emphasis on bloodlines. At this time, the imperial examination system had not yet been fully formed. Officials basically relied on relationships and bloodlines.
Xue Shao's father was the Tang Dynasty's son-in-law, and he married Princess Chengyang, who was the emperor's nephew.
"How can I be the Prince Consort?" Xue Shao said. Even with his identity, he couldn't enter the palace, so it was impossible for him to enter the palace to flirt with the princess.
……
A month ago, the Turks came to Li Zhi to ask for a marriage to Princess Taiping. Li Zhi naturally wanted to reject them. At that time, Tufan had named the princess and wanted to marry her. The Empress was reluctant and ordered people to build a Taoist temple for the princess to pretend to become a monk and take the Daoist name Taiping. He used this to reject Tufan's proposal.
Now that the Princess had grown up, she should be of age to marry. The Emperor's youngest daughter had been doted on by countless people since she was young, so how could she marry into a ghastly place like the Turks? But the Turks had been developing rapidly in recent years, and their strength was growing. This was an attempt to force the abdication, and even the Great Tang was somewhat wary of it.
The Queen of Heaven thought of a compromise. She wanted to use this opportunity to choose a Prince Consort for Princess Taiping and select young talents from the aristocratic families.
Aristocratic bloodlines and aristocratic families were the main hard criteria, and the rest were used as general references.
Xue Shaoshi naturally reached the standard of calling him Young Master Lan Tian.
The title of Young Master was not casually used. Only a young man from a prestigious family or the son of the prime minister's royal family was worthy of such a "respectful title."
Lantian Young Master Xue Shao had the bloodline of the Wealthy Xue Clan and the Li Imperial Clan. In the Great Tang, which placed the most emphasis on bloodline and family background, Xue Shao was a first-class noble son of a prestigious family, a high-grade wealthy son-in-law that many families could only dream of.
However, Xue Shao also had a handsome appearance that could charm women to death. In addition, he was good at debauchery and was talented in spending money like dirt. He almost interpreted the various standards of the Tang women for the "dream lover" to the extreme, and became the supreme "male god" in the hearts of countless women.
When Xue Shao had just transmigrated over, the Emperor had just ordered the selection of a son-in-law for Princess Taiping, and Xue Shao had begun to dismiss the female concubines in the residence. Some busybodies had made up the story that Lantian Gongzi had given up three thousand female concubines in the residence for Princess Taiping. When the Emperor heard about this, he was quite moved and included Xue Shao in the list of candidates.
Xue Shao learned everything from the system and smiled bitterly. This was the butterfly effect caused by his transmigration.
Xue Shao also roughly understood his direction. First, he had to become the emperor's son-in-law of the Great Tang, giving him a chance to show himself in front of the Emperor. He would use his identity as the emperor's son-in-law to get himself an official position, enter the army, and discover his own strength.
After that, they would wait for Li Zhi to die and Wu Zetian to ascend the throne, then raise the flag of rebellion to clear the side of the monarch.
Then, he would become the emperor and conquer the world.
Xue Shao's eyes narrowed, and the aura of an emperor rushed straight to the bull.
"In that case, I want to be an emperor for fun!”
