Stunning beauty

The imperial palace, Shou'an Hall.

The crackling sound of burning charcoal fire.

Empress Changsun sat in front of the chess table, feeling turbulent in her heart.

This matter has really reached the worst point, His Majesty has made up his mind, and it is very difficult for him to change his mind.

Now, the only person who can change the outcome is the legitimate son of the Li family.

However, would the Li family do anything against the holy will?

"Murong's fief is in Fengyang City, so it must be used as a dowry for Murong's marriage."

Holding a white piece in his hand, Emperor Shang watched the chess game on the table, with a thoughtful look on his face, and said, "The Li family is a family of merchants. Although Li Jiaoxi has the status of a national scholar, it is still not enough to match Murong. The queen thinks , how about I grant him the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households?"

After finishing speaking, Emperor Shang thought for a moment, and added, "Let's not replace hereditary, this way, it will appear that I am more sincere."

"Hereditary Marquis of Ten Thousand Households?"

Empress Changsun was shocked when she heard the words, and said, "Your Majesty, I have not sealed the hereditary title for many years."

Hereditary no replacement means that the title will be passed on from generation to generation and will never be downgraded.

This kind of title is generally only granted to those ministers who have made great contributions, and most of them are relatives of the emperor.

His Majesty is willing to give the Li family a hereditary title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households. The sincerity of the marriage is full.

In this case, if the Li family still refuses, it will appear a little ignorant.

"In the peace talks with the Wu Clan, Li Jiaoxi has done a lot of meritorious service, and has never been rewarded. Also, Li Jiaoxi also made a lot of effort in arresting the assassin who broke into the prison, so he just took advantage of this opportunity to award him a reward. "

Emperor Shang put down the chess piece in his hand, and said calmly, "It just so happens that Fengyang City is not far from Yuzhou City, and it is convenient for the Li family to move."

After hearing what His Majesty said, Empress Changsun fell silent. After a while, she calmed down and replied softly, "Your Majesty decides."

Your Majesty's move is really powerful.

Yuzhou City is the foundation of the Li family. It has been in operation for many years, how can it be moved at will, as long as it is moved, it will definitely hurt the muscles and bones.

However, once Fengyang City was sealed to the Li family, the Li family had to move if they didn't want to.

This is a conspiracy, even if the Li family can see it, there is nothing they can do.

The Li family who lost Yuzhou City is like a tiger whose teeth have been pulled out. The threat to the royal family has been reduced by at least [-]%.

"How about the empress discuss this matter with the Li family?" Shang Huang picked up a pawn again and suggested.

"Your Majesty, there may be some trouble."

Empress Changsun hesitated for a moment, and said, "In Li Yuan today, there are no elders of the Li family. Regarding the matter of marriage, should we wait for the head of the Li family from Yuzhou City to come to make a decision."

"No need."

Emperor Shang calmly said, "Aren't the parents and daughters of the Li family in Li Yuan? The eldest sister is like a mother, so she nods the same way. The queen first brings my sincerity to the Li family. As long as the Li family expresses its position, I will send someone to talk to the head of the Li family. "

"My concubine understands."

Empress Changsun responded, and sighed again in her heart.

It's a foregone conclusion.

After discussing the business, Empress Changsun didn't stay any longer, left Shou'an Palace, and returned to her own Weiyang Palace.

Coincidentally, Murong also rushed back from Ting Yuxuan, and was startled when he heard the news brought back by his mother.

The emperor's attitude towards marriage was so firm.

The hereditary Marquis of Wanhu has not been sealed for many years.

Even if the commoner king was granted the title of Marquis back then, he did not receive such preferential treatment.

The hereditary irreplaceable title is not comparable to ordinary nobles. Even a veteran of the three dynasties like Hai Qinggong failed to win a hereditary irreplaceable title for future generations.

"Murong, the queen mother has done her best."

In Weiyang Palace, Empress Changsun looked at her dazed daughter in front of her, and said helplessly, "However, your father's decision has been made, and no one can change this matter."

"Li Jianeng!"

Murong recovered from the shock, his face sank, and he said, "As long as the Li family disagrees, this marriage will not count."

"The Li family, there is no way to refuse."

Empress Changsun sighed softly, "Your father's conditions have already shown enough sincerity. If the Li family refuses, it seems too ignorant. The Li family is a family of merchants, how could they not understand this truth."

No matter how powerful the Li family was, they would not dare to slap His Majesty in the face. Such a generous offer cannot be tolerated by the Li family.

Everyone in the world is watching.

"Mother, my daughter will leave the palace tomorrow and go to talk to the Li family."

Murong said in a deep voice, "Then Li Jiaoxi is extremely smart, and he must be able to think of a way to get the best of both worlds."

"Daughter, listen to my mother's persuasion, this matter, you can no longer disobey your father's will."

Empress Changsun said helplessly, "Your father's offer of such a condition means that the marriage between you and Li Jiaoxi cannot be changed by anyone."

"Queen, give me a day."

Murong clenched his hands tightly, and said with a heavy expression, "Just one day, and the emperor didn't give the empress a clear deadline, so the empress will wait one more day, please."

"That's it."

Empress Changsun sighed again, and said, "Only one day, if you can't think of a way to get the best of both worlds, Empress Mother can only represent your royal father and discuss marriage with the Li family."

"it is good."

Murong nodded, got up and left immediately.

at the same time.

In the Commoner Mansion, Li Ziye and Xiao Xiao received a message from the palace as soon as they came back from picking up Nan'er.

"I'm really in a hurry."

After listening, Li Ziye said with a half-smile expression on his face.

"Brother Li, why are you not in a hurry?"

On the side, Xiao Xiao asked worriedly, "The Emperor Shang is forcing the Li family to make a decision."

"Not urgent."

Li Ziye said calmly, "Wait a minute, the queen hasn't sent anyone yet. The show has just started, so it's only exciting if all the characters appear on stage."

That Ninth Princess has always opposed this marriage.

If he guessed correctly, the Ninth Princess will go out of the palace to meet him soon.

This marriage drama really gets more and more interesting the more it is sung.

He wanted to see how much he, the legitimate son of the Li family, was worth in the end.

A city, a title, or an iron coupon of the alchemy that can avoid death?

In order to take down his Li family, the royal family will have to pay a sufficient price.
