Chapter 41: The country is invincible

She walked alone by the shimmering lake light of Taizhei Pond, and suddenly missed Li Yan'er.

In the past, Li Yan'er regarded her as someone she cared about, but she just treated Li Yan'er as her playmate. Now that she is no longer here, Jin Cheng misses her a little.

The huge Daming Palace has a population of tens of thousands, and she can be so lonely. She can't help but feel very depressed.

Princess Taiping, the in power, didn't seem to like her, so she could only go to the Sanqing Palace occasionally to talk to the Supreme Emperor about Taoism.She is not very Taoist, she just treats it as a sustenance.

In addition to thinking of Li Yan'er, the person Jincheng remembers the most is Xue Chongxun.

Although she would never say that what Xue Chongxun did in Tubo was right, she was very moved and missed in her heart.

Every woman has a desire to be pampered and held in her hand.

If she had the choice, should she be Bao Si or an ordinary good wife and mother?

Jincheng will choose the former without hesitation.

The king of a country, King You of Zhou, played with the princes in a beacon, just for the beautiful woman to smile. Bao Siyi is very happy and satisfied, right?

Even if the ending is a tragedy.

When Jincheng thought about Xue Chongxun, he found that he was wiser than the legendary King You of Zhou, but had the potential of King You of Zhou.

Thinking of a man who is cautious in dealing with things will do everything because of a woman, it is as cute as a quiet and skillful woman who indulges in madness...

A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Jin Cheng felt that he was very accurate in his view of people, such as her cousin Li Longji. Everyone thought he was romantic, but Jin Cheng believed that Li Longji was a ruthless person, especially for women.

Just like when they were fighting for a woman with their brothers, Li Longji gave the woman to his younger brother without hesitation to maintain his brotherhood...

What does it mean to be a person who treats women as a toy that comes and goes to him, and the beauty is just a piece of beautiful jade or jewelry to him?

In contrast, Xue Chongxun, the king of Hedong who was painted dark, had no reputation for being romantic, and Jincheng could see that he was not very good to women, but she saw something hidden under the appearance.

Jincheng stopped beside a water pavilion, bent her waist slightly, and looking at the reflection in the water, she understood her beauty...

She thought to herself: Maybe beauty is their own choice.

Instead of aging in a dull way and fading away the glory of the past, why not choose to burn yourself in the best time?

……

Not long after, there was an ordinary polo match in the square in front of Linde Hall of the Daming Palace.

Jincheng learned the list of participants through the Escort Province and found that this was not a simple polo match, because most of the participants were from aristocratic families, and all were unmarried men...

This is a war between Princess Taiping and Princess Jincheng.

Jincheng guessed: Princess Taiping started from the overall situation and wanted to marry herself to maintain the dignity of the royal family; perhaps she had other thoughts, such as jealousy, and disliked Xue Chongxun was too serious about herself.

She knew the subtle relationship between them, but she did not resist directly and went obediently when she was invited to Linde Hall.

Sometimes women are really fake and illusory. Taiping doesn't like Jincheng, but he loves her very much at this time and asks her to sit next to the emperor.

Brother Fen sat on the highest table because he was nominally the emperor.

The court was very lively, and ministers and gentry gathered together. It took a long time since such a polo game was held. Everyone was very enthusiastic...

On the contrary, Brother Fen couldn't help but yawn: They are all fucking men here, how can you tell me?

He had no interest in polo, and if he watched the beautiful singing and dancing in the palace, he might not have been so bored.

Jincheng observed the surroundings calmly and finally found the seat where Xue Chongxun was sitting. He was not noticeable among the crowd.

In this situation, Jincheng remembered the scene last year again. He faced Wanzhong and said: I am fighting for the princess of the Tang Dynasty.

Memories made a light blush on Jincheng's face, and the beauty was as bright as peach blossoms white and red.Just then, Xue Chongxun also looked back and Jincheng hurriedly turned his gaze to the stadium.

Last year, today, people's faces and peach blossoms complement each other.The faces are unknown, and the peach blossoms still smile in the spring breeze... Maybe Xue Chongxun also guessed the purpose of today's game.

On the court, the young men and men of aristocratic families sweated heavily and fought hard. Although Jincheng stared at the other side, he had no idea what was going on there, who won and who lost, and he couldn't even feel the passage of time.

I don’t know how long it took, the game was over.

When Princess Taiping summoned the children of aristocratic families to the front of the stage to reward property, she suddenly smiled and said to Jincheng: You are picking, who do you like, let the emperor decide for you.

Jin Cheng couldn't help but take a look at Xue Chongxun's location. He was silent and had no expression on his face.Princess Taiping saw Jin Cheng's expression in her eyes, her smile remained unchanged, waiting for her reply.

The person who asked was Princess Taiping, who was powerful all over the world. Jincheng had to answer and could not refuse.Taiping smiled, looking as if he was determined to win.

At this time, Brother Fen Li Shouli was still looking around, as if he had nothing to do with him.Although he gave birth to Jincheng, he had dozens of children, not to mention that Princess Jincheng adopted him to the adopted daughter of Emperor Zhongzong of Tang...

At this moment, Jin Cheng said respectfully: Your Highness cares, the criminals dare not be arrogant, they only see who wants to ignore the previous crimes. I have no reason to be picky.

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of those who were thinking about it suddenly changed.

She said humbly, meaning that I don’t choose, and let those young men of aristocratic families choose, and whoever looks down on me will follow...

But, there is something in the words!

It’s not that who is interested in her problem, and it’s probably difficult to find a man who doesn’t like her all over the world; it’s because who has the courage to marry her?

In a humble tone, it was a naked threat.

Who is the one that Jincheng likes?

Princess Taiping's favorite son, Xue Chongxun, King of Hedong.

Xue Chongxun was fighting for women with Gao Lishi's younger brother, but he wanted to kill people; and how did he do it when he treated Princess Jincheng? He did not hesitate to provoke a war between the countries...

If you like a woman, you have to consider the price.

Jincheng is so happy that it is crazy, but it is really not worth it to lose your life or even the future of the family because of a woman.

Almost all the children of the aristocratic families present had the intention of retreating.

This Jincheng is a maker with a needle in a cotton plant.

Princess Taiping immediately tasted it, and the smile on her face became stiff.

Jin Cheng's face was pale, and she was filled with panic, right?After all, the woman above holds the power of the world in her hands, and the emperor is just a decoration in her eyes.

Xue Chongxun was also very surprised. He did not expect that Jincheng would have the courage to compete with his mother.

Princess Taiping's eyes showed anger, but it was not easy to attack, because Jincheng's attitude and language were not at fault. No matter how powerful Taiping was, it was not easy to punish others for no reason, let alone the daughter of God.

Just when he was so embarrassed that he was not under the steps, a white-faced man walked forward two steps, clasped his fists and said: If Your Highness does not abandon you, I would like to give up.

All four seats were shocked, and the ministers all focused their eyes on the man. They saw that he was tall and slightly thin, with two sword eyebrows on his clean face and a shallow beard like fluff on his mouth. It seemed that he was at most fifteen or sixteen.

It's really a newborn calf who is not afraid of a tiger. This guy is probably attracted by Jincheng's beautiful appearance and is so dazed.

Taiping suddenly smiled and said with satisfaction: Which man from the family is born well.

The young man bowed politely and concisely: I am a native of Huazhou, Henan Province. My father is currently the Minister of the Huangmen. I serve my father and serve as a assistant to my father in the palace gate.

Taiping pondered for a moment, pointed at him and said: Is Ling Zun Cui Riyong?

Young man Cui Mo said: Your Highness’s clarity.

There was no sign of any silence on Taiping's face and he was silent for a moment.

At this time, Xue Chongxun was also thinking in his mind: Cui Riyong is not a member of the Taiping Party. He had worked in Dali Temple and the Ministry of War before, and was still inclined to Li Longji before the coup. After the coup, Lu Xiangxian and others suggested that Taiping pacify the people and try to be implicated as little as possible. Cui Riyong and other people were not core members of Li Longji, so they are all fine now and are still the Minister of the Yellow Sect.

Seeing that his mother was unquestionable, Xue Chongxun guessed that the reason was probably not because of Cui Riyong's position. After all, a coup has been over. If the marriage is done, it may still win over a gentry force. The reason why Taiping hesitated: the Cui family is a clan of Henan Province, and Henan Province is in the scope of Shandong Province. The Tang royal family had an unwritten rule that they would not marry Shandong nobles.

The reason is that Li Tang and the Shandong clans despise each other...

The Shandong family has achieved great success in cultural cultivation, and the Li family was born in the Guanlong military generals.

People in Shandong think that the Li family is not educated; of course the Li family is not convinced. I am the royal family. Do you have the right to pretend to be a comparison?

Since the founding of the Tang Empire, their policies to deal with Shandong aristocrats were sometimes suppressed and sometimes attracted, and most of the time they were both suppressed and won over. In short, the situation was a bit complicated and the emotions were also very complicated. Emperor Taizong of Tang often cursed Shandong gentry in front of ministers.

Although the Shandong clans are not politically strong, their social status is quite high. Many bureaucrats are eager to marry their daughters to the fullest...

They followed the emperor and scolded them, but they had a good relationship with Shandong people behind their backs.

Li Tang had never married people from Shandong. Now the person who stood up is from the Cui family, so Princess Taiping was a little troubled.

She hesitated for a moment, turned to Emperor Li Shouli and said: What does Your Majesty think of Cui Mo as a man?

Li Shouli glanced at it and said in a lewd manner: Not bad, it has a tender skin.

As soon as the words came out, everyone around them felt a chill. Perhaps Cui Mo, who was standing below, also felt tightening his anus.

Taiping took the opportunity to put the blame on Li Shouli: I said you are good today, so I naturally have no objection.

Cui Mo was delighted and fell to the ground and bowed: Thank you for your kindness, thank you for your kindness, thank you for your kindness.
