Chapter 264 The Princess Marries (5)

Li Shimin could see the respect and admiration the four princesses had for him. Although the four princes-in-law were often annoyed by the princesses, there was no resentment at all from their eyes and expressions. This made Li Shimin very happy. After traveling for a long time , he prefers to be surrounded by polite and innocent people, and he will be very comfortable getting along with them.

He picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "The princes have always been respectful and polite in front of me. I don't know whether the rumors among the people are true or false, but I only hope that in the days to come, all the princes can be together." My son-in-law should live a good life." He paused and said in a deep voice, "If I find out that anyone bullies my son-in-law, I will definitely punish him without mercy!"

After speaking, Li Shimin drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and the others hurriedly picked up the wine glasses and drank with him. Yonghe's expression was a bit stiff. There was a big difference between a casual punishment and a decreed punishment. Just like Zhaoyang, although he was banned, not many people knew about it, but if his father issued a decree, it would be made public. The punishment is known to the world, and the reputation of being arrogant and domineering will never be shaken off for the rest of his life!

Zhao Hong noticed Yong He's unhappy mood, and his heart tightened. He bravely stood up and clasped his fists at Li Shimin and said, "Emperor Yue, to tell you the truth, ever since I got married to the eldest princess, the eldest princess... she has been... moody! "

The hall fell silent for an instant, and everyone's eyes were focused on Zhao Hong.

Li Shimin glanced at Yong He and felt funny in his heart. If his eyes could turn into knives, then Zhao Hong must have been cut into pieces by a thousand knives!

Yong He glared at Zhao Hong angrily, his face as dark as water. She felt that the eyes of the three royal sisters were full of ridicule. As the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, she couldn't even control a man. It was really embarrassing! She didn't dare to look at her father, for fear of seeing his disappointment and disgust towards her. His father no longer favored her. If he learned about her private behavior again, would he never want to see her again?

Yonghe was in a state of confusion, while the other three princes-in-law stared at Zhao Hong in shock and admiration. They were filled with admiration in their hearts. He was indeed a great prince-in-law, with courage! Have courage! The three of them looked at each other, all eager to give it a try! They have been oppressed for so long. If someone takes the lead, why would it be difficult to break out? !

Li Shimin broke the silence with a slight cough and said to Zhao Hong, "Oh? Now I am making the decision for you. If you have any grievances, you can speak out!"

For a moment, Zhao Hong became the focus of the dinner. He felt a little nervous. He glanced at Yong He, his hands were sweating. He suddenly put on a guilty and distressed expression and said, "Emperor Yue! Although the eldest princess is moody. , But... But I understand that the eldest princess has her own reasons for being like this!"

Yong He breathed a sigh of relief quietly, and slowly loosened his grip on the clothes under the table, returning to his noble and elegant look. However, his eyes were still fixed on Zhao Hong, fearing that he would say something detrimental to him.

Zhao Hong continued: "The eldest princess... she is like this because she is the first princess and should be a role model for the royal sister. She also cares about the people and works for the welfare of all people. I... I am naturally unruly, and the eldest princess is still She has to worry about me...she works hard and is exhausted...so it is understandable that she is moody!"

After Zhao Hong finished speaking, Yonghe smiled again and gave Zhao Hong a satisfied look.

Li Shimin lowered his head, hid the smile on his lips, looked at him again and asked, "Prince-in-law, do you really mean what you said?"

"True! It's absolutely true! There is absolutely nothing false about what I said!" Zhao Hong responded quickly, with a firm tone, as if what he said was true.

The other princes-in-law felt that their hopes were shattered, and the little thoughts that had just popped up in their hearts were immediately suppressed. At this time, the second princess glanced at the second prince-in-law and said casually: "Second prince-in-law, why don't you take this opportunity to express what's on your mind."

The second prince-in-law was startled, pointed back at himself and exclaimed: "Ah? You want me to tell you?"

The second princess glared at her, and the second prince-in-law immediately stood up as she asked. He looked at the eldest prince-in-law, then at the fourth prince-in-law and the fifth prince-son-in-law. The latter two, fearing that the world would not be in chaos, winked and nodded to encourage him. He was in a momentary mood. Excited, he blurted out: "Actually... Wei Chen thinks the second princess is too domineering and arrogant!"

After speaking, he saw the second princess gnashing her teeth, and immediately softened her voice and said with a smile: "It's just because she, like the eldest princess, works hard for the people, and she is afraid that I will betray the divine favor, so she speaks harshly to me. In fact, the second princess …A virtuous and virtuous minister is not caring enough.”

The second princess smiled at him and nodded with satisfaction. Seeing their wives' expressions, the fourth and fifth princes hurriedly told Li Shimin that although the princess's temper was bad, it was all excusable and it was because they had not done enough.

Li Shimin watched them paying attention to his wife's emotions and smiled with satisfaction. In feudal society, it was a great blessing to have a husband who revolved around him. He was now the father of several princesses, so he naturally hoped that they could Live freely and happily.

"The relationship between husband and wife is all about tolerance and understanding. They need to work together. You are meant to be with each other for a lifetime. Don't hurt your feelings because of a moment of willfulness. No matter what conflicts you had in the past, they will be wiped out today. From now on, , I don’t want to hear any discord between you two couples, understand?” Li Shimin’s words were filled with concern, and Yonghe was the first to notice the difference.

"I understand!" "I understand!"

"Since all the princes care about the people and make the princes uneasy, I will arrange some things for you to do. Whether you can do it well or not depends on you." Li Shimin's calm words shocked everyone again.

The princess and the consort looked at each other in disbelief, but it was Concubine Wei's chuckle that woke them up, "You haven't thanked your father yet?"

The four princes-in-law were a little at a loss, but among their noble men, who wouldn’t want to apply what they have learned to serve the country? To be chosen as the Prince Consort, they have their own merits. At least they are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Realizing the meaning of Li Shimin's words, several people quickly got up and walked to the center of the hall to salute Li Shimin and promised excitedly. : "I will do my best to relieve Emperor Yue's worries!"

Li Shimin smiled and stroked his beard, "Well, okay! You will enter the palace tomorrow and let me see your knowledge."

The princesses all showed smiles of surprise. Yonghe looked at Li Shimin and felt a little excited. Since Zhaoyang was brought into the palace by his father more than ten years ago, these daughters have become foils. His father no longer favors her. , never cared about whether she would live a good life, and even the marriage was just left to Concubine Wei to arrange, without paying any attention to it. Just after she had given up on herself for so long, she actually fell into the eyes of her father again? She couldn't believe it, but she was sure that she felt her father's concern for them.

Concubine Wei interrupted with a smile at the right time, which eased the atmosphere in the palace. Concubine Sun could not match her tact and was robbed of her attention. She secretly resented it and had to toast Li Shimin and talk to him from time to time.

After three rounds of drinking, Li Shimin also arranged for the dancers in the palace to dance for everyone. They were very happy. It was not until the sky was getting dark that they asked everyone to disperse. I need to talk to some of them."

The princes-in-law all looked at their princesses, and when they saw them nodding vaguely, they retreated. Several people outside the palace let out a sigh of relief, looked at each other, and laughed, especially Zhao Hong. He was most excited. As the prince consort, he was already stronger than the others. He had learned a lot after being oppressed by Yonghe in the past few years. Now that he had the opportunity to serve as an official, he was really excited.

The fifth prince-in-law looked back and whispered to them: "Am I dreaming? Is Emperor Yue really going to do something for us?"

The second prince-in-law swallowed his saliva, "It should...it should be right!"

"Absolutely! Our good days are coming! Didn't you hear what Emperor Yue said that there should never be any rumors of discord between husband and wife? Not only will we get errands, but the princesses will no longer dare to bully us!" Zhao Hong's eyes widened. Shining light, making a fist with one hand and hitting the palm of the other hand, full of confidence.

Zhao Hong has always been so optimistic. Even when Yong He was at his most irritable, he would just musing alone in private. Turning around, it was the cheerful prince-in-law again. His firm tone made the other princes-in-law couldn't help but express their opinions. The future is full of hope. The momentum of the four people changed, and they walked forward with their chests held high and their heads held high. The smiles on their faces were full of anticipation for tomorrow.

Concubine Wei and Concubine Sun also left wisely. Only Li Shimin and the four princesses were left in the palace. Li Shimin was silent for a while. The four of them were a little uneasy. Yonghe asked carefully: "Father, do you have anything to say to us?" ?”

Li Shimin looked at them with a straight face, "Do you really think that I don't know whether the rumors among the people are true or false? I am the king of a country. As long as I think about it, there is nothing that cannot be investigated!"

The expressions of the four people froze, and Yong He said bravely: "Father, my sons and ministers did not do well in some places, but the few princes-in-law just now also said what was in their hearts, this..."

"Okay," Li Shimin waved his hand, stood up and walked towards them, "I don't want to punish you by keeping you, I just want you to learn to cherish it. Yonghe, you beat the prince consort wantonly, leaving him covered with bruises. How can you imagine Qingyun, you ignored Weng Gu and didn't allow the Second Prince Consort to care for them. Do you think you did the right thing? Chuanping, you asked the Fourth Prince Consort to clear the snow in the cold weather, and he was freezing. After lying in bed for three days, do you feel any guilt at all? Jin Huai, you like to worship Buddha the most, but you keep scolding the Five Prince Consort, have you ever respected him? "

The four princesses lowered their heads and did not dare to quibble. Li Shimin sighed, shook his head and said: "I am busy with national affairs and have neglected you a lot. I didn't expect that you would treat your husband like this. I am very disappointed."

The four princesses immediately fell to their knees and shouted in shame: "I know my mistake, please forgive me!"

They really did not expect that what they had done had been known to their father. When they heard that their father was disappointed with them, they were very confused for a moment. Thinking of their past actions, they did not understand why they became more and more arrogant and why they lost the Tang Dynasty. Although the princess's demeanor has attracted the attention of their father, they don't know whether it is better to disappoint him or let him ignore them as usual.
