Li Shiming had originally wanted to bestow the marriage, but Li Daozong's sudden words angered the ministers who had been rejected by him!
The betrothed was not from the descendants of a noble or a minister, but from a fifth rank general, an entry-level heir.
The Great Tang had a rule that only a fifth-grade general had the right to inherit the title, so Yang Hao, the son of a fifth-grade general, was only an entry-level heir.
She rejected the sons of first, second, and third rank officials and wanted to marry the son of a fifth rank military general. Wasn't this a joke?
Whoosh!
Li Shi Min let out a long sigh and shook his head while looking at his cousin. Such a good daughter, wasn't she like a flower stuck in cow dung?
"Daoist Sect, General Yang Hu died in battle in his early years. Did his family know about this? Did that child know?”
"Your Majesty, I don't know." Li Daozong cupped his hands.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the ministers were relieved and nodded.
Everyone knew that he, Li Daozong, was a virtuous king. When he was the governor of the frontline, he was famous for his loyalty. It was understandable that he was only one-track minded and did not know how to adapt.
"I say, wangye, since it's like this, what the heavens and earth know doesn't count.”
"When the time comes, I'll promote that child and repay him.”
"Yes, yes!"
"Wangye, this matter is simple, just be flexible. My son killed three enemy generals in the battle of the Western Regions!”
"Go to hell. My son even conquered three cities. Why don't you say so?”
Li Shi Min smiled and nodded.
"In my opinion."
Creak!
Li Daozong clenched his fist, and his knuckles, which were the size of a clay pot, cracked.
"No!"
His tone was unyielding and his attitude was firm. It was as if he was going to be unreasonable and defy the imperial edict.
"Stop talking. My daughter marrying a beggar is also my business.”
"What are you guys arguing about?"
"Everyone, many of you have led soldiers before, right?”
"Could it be that the feelings that come out of blood and blood, the feelings that can block knives for each other, are just for fun?”
"If a person doesn't believe, he won't stand!"
"Heaven knows, Earth knows, Hu Zi knows, I know.”
"Hu Zi is gone, but I, Li Daozong, am still here.!”
Li Daozong was very excited. At the mention of Hu Zi, the thirty-eight-year-old Li Daozong was already past middle age in the Great Tang. He was about to enter old age. The wrinkles behind her eyes were already filled with tears.
Sigh!
"One-track-minded!"
"What a good daughter!"
Li Shiming looked at his niece who was silent and only lowered her head.
He seemed to see a trace of reluctance and said seriously,"Dao Sect, you have to think carefully."
"Your eldest son died in battle, your second son died in battle. If you don't let Xue Yan marry someone capable, who will support your family?”
Li Daozong smiled and cupped his hands." Thank you for your favor, Your Majesty. I believe that Hu Zi's son is a capable person."”
"Your Majesty, do you remember that a year ago, Hu Zi died in battle and Songzhou was left without a general?”
Li Shi Min frowned. What did this have to do with that child? Yang Hao was qualified to inherit the title, but the Ministry of War did not approve of it. He was only a reserve general, unless there were no generals in the court.
"I remember that I said to immediately send a general to take over.”
"Could it be that you guys?"
Li Shimin looked at Li Jing and Li Daozong.
"Your Majesty," Li Jing hurriedly cupped his hands,"the Great Tang was at war with the kingdoms of the Western Regions, and we had no generals to send." Thus, I let the Ministry of War directly appoint Yang Hao, and the province under the gate drafted the edict.”
The imperial edicts of the Great Tang were divided into two levels. At the first level, the words 'His Majesty has decreed' were raised, meaning that the Emperor had named the person to do something.
The second level was where the Emperor wanted to send people to do something. Then, the three provinces and six ministries would decide on their own to carry out the Emperor's orders. This kind of imperial edict was raised to the 'sect'.
The Menxia Province was one of the three provinces. It was in charge of confidential documents and discussed state affairs together with the Ministry of Central Affairs. He was also responsible for reviewing the imperial edict, signing the memorial, and had the right to seal and refute it.
Therefore, the imperial edict that Yang Hao received was a second-class imperial edict. He was indeed carrying out the emperor's orders, but he had not reached the level where the emperor would name him!
But even so, Yang Hao still put the country's affairs first and did his best.
He, Yang Hao, was worthy of the title of the Great Tang's Dingyuan General!
Li Shi Min heard this and realized that this was the case. It turned out that the child had inherited his father's position and went to guard the border. He could be considered a brave person.
However, a mere fifth-grade border garrison general marrying a prince and princess, and a woman with unparalleled talent and beauty. No matter how he thought about it, he felt disgusted.
Concubine Yang, on the other hand, smiled happily.
How should she put it? That was her Zong Clan!
Her father, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian, was from Huayin, Hongnong. She was also from Huayin. They belonged to the branch of the Yang family. Although they had been separated for hundreds of years, they were still passed down by the prime minister of the Western Han Dynasty, Yang Chang.
She was happy that her family had risen again and that Old Yang's family had hope!
Li Shimin sighed.
So, he looked at Li Xue Yan,"Niece, do you agree?"”
Li Xue Yan raised her head and bowed. Her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and she looked somewhat unwilling.
She, Li Xue Yan, did not care about her birth, but she was proficient in the four arts of music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and martial arts. Of course, she wanted to marry a man who was skilled in both martial arts and martial arts.
If he was talented in both civil and martial arts, even if he was like Cheng Yaojin, born a bandit, it didn't matter. He was afraid that he was a mediocre person!
However, she was a filial daughter. She knew that the father of her fiancé whom she did not know had done her father a favor.
He should repay her kindness!
"Your Majesty, I agree."
His tone was clearly lacking in confidence. Li Shi Min wasn't stupid, he could tell.
Sigh!
"Alright then!"
"Go and summon that brat to meet zhen. zhen wants to see what abilities he has.”
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"Your Majesty is wise!"
" Your Majesty is wise!"
Apart from Li Jing and Li Daozong, everyone was cheering for the Sacred.
It was the Sacred!
This was an opportunity for their son. They thought about how capable a fifth-grade general could be, but he still retreated after knowing that it was difficult.
That way, their son would have a chance. His Majesty was too wise.
"Report!"
"Emergency at the front line, emergency at the front line!"
A dusty soldier holding an emergency token rushed in with a battle report in his hand.
Each of the border guards had an 800-mile urgent token.
With this token, one could directly pass through. Even the Vermilion Bird Gate of the Imperial City had to let them pass.
The sixteen thousand soldiers, the officials, the eunuchs, the emperor, the empress, and the imperial concubines all tensed up when they heard the battle report.
"Your Majesty, 200,000 elite Tibetan soldiers are gathering in Songzhou.”
"The vanguard of twenty thousand soldiers has already begun fighting against the three thousand soldiers of Songzhou.”
"General Yang Hao fought bravely and defended for five days. He killed 8,000 enemies and lost 2,000 of his own.”
"Danger, danger!”
When the generals heard this, Songzhou was in an emergency?
Songzhou was directly west of Chang 'an. Once it was breached, the 200,000-strong army would march straight in and attack Chang 'an.
Li Shiming's eyes shone with a vicious light. The Great Tang had not dealt with them in the past few years because it had focused its attention on the Western Regions.
Now, they still dared to gather 200,000. It was simply preposterous.
"Lord Prefect of Heavenly Policy Prefecture, where is Li Jing?”
"Yes!" Li Jing cupped his hands.
"Gather your troops and beat the Tubo people back to the mountain!”
