Chapter 113: The Tang Dynasty Princess Marries into the World
"Your Majesty."
The dark eyes of the elegant song flashed, and Li Shimin's reaction, which was not in his plan, made him somewhat unprepared. He had expected that Li Shimin might get angry or remain calm, but he had never thought that Li Shimin would be so calm, as if everything that happened was under his control.
Li Shimin, isn't he already indulged in the heavenly joy of being with Zhaoyang and doesn't care about anything else? The advice of Empress Changsun, the vinegar sea in the harem, the stormy weather hidden under the calm surface of the previous dynasty, didn't he turn a blind eye to all of these?
So what is it now?
With a slight raise of his sword-like eyebrows, Ya Ge lifted his right hand and waved it backwards. The civil and military officials who were following him retreated, leaving only dozens of young men wearing dark armor with cold faces to continue surrounding the plum garden.
With a stern gaze, Li Shimin scanned the crowd, then stood up and glanced at Zhao Yang, making her let go of his robe. He strolled leisurely to Ya Ge's side, adjusting his armor with one hand, his face filled with extreme satisfaction.
"Yage, you're good." He raised his eyes to look at Yage, speaking word by word, and then his lips moved a few more times. If it weren't for Yage's strong cultivation and keen senses, which had already reached several hundred times that of ordinary humans, he probably wouldn't have been able to hear Li Shimin's words.
It's really good, better than mine...
Amazing!!!
Yajiao's pupils suddenly contracted, if the information provided by the system was not wrong, then in history, Li Shimin's crown prince Li Chengqian's courtesy name was indeed "Gaoming". Compared to the "Yage" he got from hypnotizing Li Yuan, Li Chengqian's courtesy name in history is even more revealing of Li Shimin's esteem for him.
Li Yuan gave him "Chengqian", Li Shimin gave him "Gaoming". None of them showed the high expectations that the Li Tang family had for this crown prince. Unfortunately, in history, Li Chengqian was just a little bit smarter than ordinary people, he couldn't resist the temptation from all sides, and when facing his brothers who were eager to move, he made big mistakes.
This Li Shimin is not the Li Shimin of this world!
So this is why he let all of this happen?
Yahua's voice was calm and collected, but her words were laced with a hint of venom as she gazed at Li Shimin: "As the son of the empress dowager, I am naturally good." She then added, with a mocking curve to her lips, "Isn't it true that in Father Emperor's heart, there is only that weaver girl and her daughter?" Noticing the flicker of pain in Li Shimin's calm eyes, Yahua delivered the fatal blow: "Father Emperor, should I and Mother Dowager be grateful that the weaver girl is no longer alive?"
No matter which Li Shimin was in front of him, Ya Ge would not be able to recognize him. He would only deepen Li Shimin's guilt towards him and Changsun. This is the most beneficial thing for him. No matter when this suspected "Li Shimin" came from, his doting on Zhao Yang was clear to everyone.
Even if this "Li Shimin" just can't let others discover the truth of his crossing and remains silent, Ya Ge is also impossible to suddenly become a holy father, so pretending not to know and continuing with his plan is the best choice.
After a moment of silence, Yage burst out laughing and made a respectful bow to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, please move to the detached palace, I have already arranged everything early in the morning, I believe Your Majesty will live comfortably."
"...the imperial edict of abdication, I have only one request." Li Shimin paused for a moment before continuing, "Let your mother also move to the palace and live with me. She and I have always lived in the same bedroom, how can we be separated now?"
He emphasized the word "husband and wife", implying his concession.
"I, as a son, will naturally not oppose it. As for the Empress Dowager's opinion, only Father Emperor himself can go ask her what she thinks." After finishing speaking, Yage turned around and left Meiyuan with big strides, waving his hand to take away the black-armored private soldiers guarding the surroundings.
It has come to this, and I believe that "Li Shimin" made the most correct choice. Moreover, the Empress Longsun of this world is still alive, which really reduced a lot of trouble for him.
Yaqi's lips curled up, and she felt a sense of joy in her heart. Although she didn't know where this "Li Shimin" came from, seeing the subtlety, Yaqi discovered that he wasn't very fond of Zhao Yang, but when mentioning Empress Changsun, his emotions fluctuated more than usual.
No matter what, the plot has been roughly guessed by him. Without Li Shimin's favoritism, I believe this Princess Zhaoyang will understand what a real Great Tang princess should look like, as well as that Sutu Yiping beside her.
Even if she was the princess's personal maid, could she really be so arrogant and domineering that she wouldn't even spare a glance for an official of the imperial court? Alright, although Ding You was not considered a formal official of the imperial court.
As he walked, Yage's footsteps quickened, eager to return to the Eastern Palace. Su Wan and their children were waiting for him there, as well as Empress Zhangsun and his brothers and sisters.
Although he has experienced a lot, Ye Ge doesn't think that he will necessarily become a qualified emperor. Different times require different emperors, so he won't let his brothers and sisters, as well as the soon-to-abdicate Li Shimin, off the hook. As members of the same Li Tang royal family, how can he be the only one to work hard for the prosperity of the Great Tang, while they just enjoy the benefits of being imperial princes and princesses?
As the dark-armored private soldiers slowly disappeared from the palace, the civil and military officials were at a loss. Whether they chose to stand behind Yage or were forced by him, they all felt that this siege ended inexplicably. The strange atmosphere between the Emperor and the Crown Prince was really beyond their understanding!
In any case, this prince's long-planned coup d'etat ended like this. Not one person died, nor was anyone injured.
In the 17th year of the Zhenguan era, on the 30th day of the 12th month, New Year's Eve morning, Tang Taizong Li Shimin personally wrote a decree in his own handwriting to abdicate the throne at the Liyuan Palace where he had lived before the death of Emperor Gaozu of Tang, and passed the imperial throne to Crown Prince Li Chengqian.
In the second month of the 18th year of the Zhenguan era, Crown Prince Li Chengqian ascended to the throne in the Taiji Palace and changed the national title to "Xinghua" on the same day.
The emperor's sisters were all promoted to Grand Princesses, while his brothers remained unchanged.
After Li Shimin abdicated as the Taishang Huang, he spent a lot of thought and finally let the Changsun family return to their senses and move to the palace with him. As for the Shuangyang Princess who was once favored by him in the harem, she gradually became forgotten from then on. The Taishang Huang never mentioned her again, and the trusted Emperor Xianzong obviously didn't treat her well, so how could others not follow suit?
However, fortunately, the imperial harem of the Tang Dynasty had been governed by Empress Changsun for over a decade, and rewards and punishments were always clear-cut, so there was no typical case of trampling down and flattering up. Therefore, Zhao Yang did not thoroughly fall into dust. Even so, Zhao Yang still tasted the heartache, although the palace servants still served her wholeheartedly, they no longer fawned on her as before. And now she could not easily see her father, the emperor, and the sense of loss in her heart was only clear to herself.
Situ Yinpeng had not been by Zhaoyang's side for long, and naturally did not have the deep feelings of having grown up together like in the original drama. Unfortunately, she thought of many ways but still could not leave Zhaoyang's side, as she was arranged by Li Shimin to be by Zhaoyang's side. How could Yage "go against her father's orders"?
The harem affairs were not something that Yang Song had the energy to attend to, and these things he only heard about when Emperor Taizong of Tang and Empress Zhangsun would chat with him during their leisure time. After Emperor Taizong abdicated and Yang Song took over, Empress Zhangsun gradually handed over her palace powers to Empress Su.
Before agreeing to move away from the palace, she had already handed over all the palace affairs to Su Wan and left with a light heart. Now both the harem and the imperial court knew that the Emperor Emeritus and Empress Dowager were living happily ever after. The two of them left the palace, under the strict protection of the guards and bodyguards, and began to tour the scenery of the Tang Dynasty.
Of course, this is what they said to outsiders. In fact, Li Shimin and Changsun did go on a trip together, but their destination was quite special. The couple disguised themselves as a merchant couple with a caravan, heading towards Tibet.
In the 14th year of the Zhenguan era, in October, Li Shimin agreed to the request of Songtsen Gampo of Tibet and married off a niece of his to him. Because Ya Ge knew the historical plot, Princess Wencheng did not have as glorious a wedding as she had in history this time.
。
The power of Tubo is inseparable from Princess Wencheng's introduction
The various Han Chinese technologies and cultures, after the decline of the Tang Dynasty, took advantage of the opportunity to strengthen themselves and conquer many lands. Yaguo felt that this was normal. On the one hand, he admired Princess Wencheng, but on the other hand, he directly plundered and left Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, which made Yaguo unacceptable.
Of course, Ya Song would never admit that this was a case of misplaced anger towards Tuyuhun for being destroyed by Tubo!
The Tuyuhun was an ancient Chinese ethnic group in the northwest, originally a personal name, and was the eldest son of Murong Chui, the Khan of the Xianbei people. After Murong Chui's death, his legitimate son succeeded as Khan, but he did not get along with Murong Tuyuhun, who led his followers to migrate westward to the upper reaches of the Wei River, and established a strong tribe there.
Even if Tuyuhun was just a tribe, it was controlled by the Murong clan. The armor worn by Yage is now the emperor of the Li Tang royal family, but his soul is actually a descendant of the Murong clan!
Murong, originated from Gao Xinshi, is a descendant of Emperor Ku. One part merged into the Han people in the Central Plains and changed their surname to Mu, while another part merged with the Xianbei and retained the compound surname Murong. Although the Murong clan was not particularly prominent in history, they left behind a brilliant stroke.
The modern Murong family is only considered an ordinary family, but the tradition of strict adherence to the eldest son inheritance system has been passed down from generation to generation, thus avoiding the occurrence of fratricidal strife and making the Murong family more united. Even if the Murong family in this world had no connection with Ya Ge, he would not be willing to just watch Tubo grow stronger.
So, Princess Wencheng's entry into Tibet was just bringing some silk and porcelain, as well as some seeds and farming techniques, but people like blacksmiths, carpenters, and stonemasons would not be sent in.
Let this world's
Fellow villagers having enough to eat is already the limit of what Ya Ge can do as a Huaxia person, he doesn't want to add military force to them anymore.
At any time, Tibetan compatriots are a powerful nation. If the Ya song can't grasp them, they can only choose to drain the water from the bottom of the pot.
He is now wearing Li Chengqian, and what he wants to do is to make the Great Tang truly become the most prosperous country! As for the national integration and national love in the future, it is not his current theme.

When this world ends, potatoes will send Li Shimin's crossing fanwai. At that time, it will be placed in the author's words, and it will be a welfare for those who have always supported potatoes.
Potatoes really didn't want Li Shimin to be as brain-dead as in the TV series, so after arranging for the Eastern Expedition to fail and his health to deteriorate, the historical Tang Taizong wore it. He knew all of the history of the Tang Dynasty, which is why he allowed Yaguo to successfully usurp the throne.
It was also the wrong timing for his transmigration, as "the predecessor's" doting on Zhao Yang had already made him lose face, so it would be better to pass this position to a crown prince who was completely different from his previous "high-ranking" one.
I hope everyone won't think it's too ridiculous, but in the end, Tudou still can't bear to see Li Shimin being ruined by that screenwriter... qaq
