Set up a government hall.
Empress Zhangsun was sitting alone in her bedroom, taking a nap.
At this moment, a series of footsteps broke the silence of the palace.
"Mother!"
Princess Changle walked in angrily, followed by a little palace maid.
When Empress Zhangsun heard this, she stood up slightly.
"Lizhi, why are you back so soon? Didn't they say that they were going to the border guard marquis 'manor to take a look at this young marquis' appearance? Could it be that he didn't see it and was rejected?”Empress Zhangsun said with a smile.
"Hmph, Mother, don't mention him. Perhaps he's lived in the desert for too long, but his style of doing things is no different from a barbarian. Look, he's scratched my wrist red!”Princess Chang Le said as she showed her wrist.
Sure enough, there was a clear red mark on his wrist.
Seeing this, Empress Zhangsun's expression changed slightly. She hurried over to take a closer look and frowned."Why? Why would the border guard duke hurt you? Could it be that he doesn't know that you're the Princess of Changle?”
Hearing this, Princess Chang Le, who was still fuming a moment ago, instantly extinguished her anger.
The servant girl standing behind her couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Shut up, why are you still laughing!" Princess Chang Le turned around and said angrily.
Empress Zhangsun frowned and said,""Lizhi, don't do things recklessly. Although this border guard marquis is famous at a young age, he is definitely not a rash person to be so highly regarded by your father. There must be something hidden behind this.”
Princess Chang Le pursed her lips but did not say anything.
Seeing this, Empress Zhangsun's gaze fell directly on the young maidservant behind her.
"Zhiyun, you and Princess Changle went to the marquis fu together. Tell me what happened!”
"Yes, Empress!"
The servant girl bowed gracefully. Although she was Princess Changle's confidant, she did not dare to hide anything in front of Empress Zhangsun.
"Although our border guard marquis is a little rude, he's really a smart person. When we just went there, he already noticed us and even asked Supervisor Wang to help him wash the horses. Supervisor Wang didn't even dare to say a word. Then, just as we were about to leave, he suddenly said,"
The little servant girl recounted the entire process in detail.
Originally, Empress Zhangsun's expression was still a little ugly.
However, when he heard the whole story, his expression changed a lot.
In the end, he was overjoyed.
"This Border Guard Marquis truly lives up to his reputation. Not only is he smart, but he also has guts. It seems that His Majesty's choice of this person was not a coincidence. He truly has the talent to be used by the Great Tang.”
Although Empress Zhangsun was a woman, she was also a famous talented woman.
One had to know that back then, she had given Li Shiming many suggestions and helped him a lot, pushing him to the throne bit by bit. She was a typical good wife.
However, she was now the Empress, so she rarely participated in state affairs.
However, to be able to hear such praise from her mouth was definitely not something ordinary.
It could be seen how high Mu Chen's position was in Empress Zhangsun's heart.
"Mother, that Mu Chen is clearly bullying me. Why are you still speaking up for him? Look, my wrist still hurts!”Princess Chang Le said.
"Oh? Then how do you think we should resolve this matter?”Empress Zhangsun asked.
"Hmph, if it were up to me, I'd let father strip him of his title and demote him to a commoner. Then, he'll arrange for assassins to intercept him halfway to warn others!”Princess Chang Le said.
"Nonsense!"
In the end, just as he said that…
Empress Zhangsun was immediately enraged.
This time, even Princess Chang Le's expression changed.
She was the apple of Empress Zhangsun and Li Shimin's eyes. When had she ever been so angry with her?
"This is ridiculous. How can the country be trifled with? Moreover, you were in the wrong first. If you had revealed your true identity from the beginning, I don't believe that the Border Guard Marquis would treat you like this. Now that you've suffered a loss, instead of sincerely repenting, you're here to cause trouble. If your father finds out, do you think he'll really strip you of your title?”Empress Zhangsun said.
"Mother, your son knows his mistake!"
Princess Chang Le was frightened and quickly knelt down like a child who had made a mistake.
Actually, she didn't mean any harm when she said that.
He wouldn't really look for Li Shi Min to strip Mu Chen of his title.
It was nothing more than complaining to his mother and showing off.
In the end, she never expected that she would make Empress Zhangsun so angry.
Seeing Princess Changle's aggrieved expression, Empress Zhangsun said,""Sigh, this matter ends here. You must remember this in the future. You must not do such a ridiculous thing again. If your father learns of what happened today, as long as you sincerely repent, he will not blame you."
"Yes, mother!" Princess Chang Le said.
" The Great Tang is plagued by both internal and external troubles. The world is suffering from a drought. The people are in dire straits. If it weren't for the border guard marquis who showed us the method of planting sweet potatoes, I really don't know how we could survive this year of famine," Empress Zhangsun said.
These words seemed to be directed at Princess Chang Le.
In fact, it was more like Empress Zhangsun, who was worried about the lives of the world and rejoicing over the sweet potatoes that Mu Chen had brought.
"Right, mother, I went to the border guard manor and brought back 3,000 sweet potato seedlings with Supervisor Wang. However, isn't the number of sweet potato seedlings a little too little?”Princess Chang Le said.
"Little? " It's already quite a lot. This is also the result of the discussion between the border guard and your father. Although the sweet potatoes are not very picky about the climate and environment, this is also our first attempt. Therefore, we will try planting them in Chang 'an first. If we succeed, we will spread them on a large scale!”Empress Zhangsun said with a smile.
"So that's how it is. Speaking of which, this Border Guard Marquis is indeed quite capable. Mother, Zhiyun and I often disguise ourselves as men and sneak out of the palace, but when we were outside, we had never been seen through. Today, we just met the Border Guard Marquis, and we didn't even have a conversation, but he saw through us with a single glance!”Princess Chang Le said.
Although she was angry, Princess Chang Le felt a little admiration for Mu Chen.
Empress Zhangsun smiled gently." Although the border guard marquis is young and frivolous, he is truly talented and knowledgeable. He will definitely be a pillar of the country in the future. Lizhi, you are not young anymore. You should prepare for your marriage!”
"What? Mother, what do you mean? "I'm still young!" Princess Chang Le was shocked.
"Still young? When mother was thirteen, she was already married to your father."
