The word "side by side" king of the Tang Dynasty

Li Changqing did plan to search for the imperial seal from Empress Xiao at first, and refused to accept Yang Wanzhi as his concubine.

Now when she heard what Empress Xiao said, she immediately understood that it was impossible for her to carry the imperial seal with her.

Otherwise, Yu Wenhuaji, Dou Jiande and the two Turkic Khans would have taken away the imperial seal when they got her.

Empress Xiao added:"Wanzhi is the princess of the previous dynasty, and I hope that King Wu will treat her as the East Palace."

Li Changqing fell into deep thought.

While he was pondering, Du Ruhui couldn't help but speak.

"Zhou Rites records that in ancient times, the emperor established six palaces, three wives, nine concubines, twenty-seven wives, and eighty-one royal wives.

After the construction of Tiance Palace was completed, it was necessary to select concubines from the whole country for King Wu.

The daughter of the former Sui Emperor, with a respected status and beautiful appearance, could be the concubine of the East Palace!"

The ancients had three wives and four concubines. Among them, there were three wives, one official wife and two equal wives. These three were the wives of the Ming matchmakers.

Concubines, etc., were not considered wives and could even be given away at will.

Of course, the emperor's, that’s different.

Therefore, the three palaces among the three palaces and six courtyards can refer to the emperor's three wives during the Qin, Han and Jin dynasties.

The queen lives in the middle palace, and the two common wives live in the east and west palaces.

After Du Ruhui finished speaking, Fang Xuanling also started to persuade:"I second the proposal! The daughter of the former Sui Emperor is a good match for King Wu!"

After these two advisers made a start, the other generals also expressed their agreement.

By marrying the daughter of the former Sui emperor, you can show off your power as a martial king, and you can also get a jade seal to pass down the country.

This is like pie in the sky!

All the advisers and generals under his command looked at Li Changqing eagerly, hoping that he would agree.

Yang Wanzhi bowed her head shyly and stood next to Queen Xiao, her face flushed.

Seeing that Li Changqing was still thinking about it, Li Xiuning whispered in his ear:

"Evergreen, I look at the Sui princess in front of me. She is beautiful and will definitely not be inferior to Empress Xiao in the future. Regardless of appearance or origin, she can be the concubine of the East Palace.

Li Changqing's face condensed and he said in a deep voice:"Xiu Ning!""

Li Xiuning continued:"It is related to the jade seal passed down to the country. This is a serious matter. Changqing cannot let his own temper take over."

Even though she loves Li Changqing deeply in her heart, Li Xiuning knows that the more critical it is, the more she must help Li Changqing make the right decision.

Li Changqing closed his eyes and thought for a long time, and finally slowly opened his eyes to Queen Xiao, said:

"In this case, it is just as Empress Xiao said. After the construction of the palace was completed, the widow married Wan's sister as the concubine of the East Palace."

Hearing this, the counselors and generals in the hall, Queen Xiao, were overjoyed.

Yang Wanzhi's snow-white face was already as red as an apple.

Li Xiuning had a determined face.

That determined expression made Li Changqing feel distressed.

Fang Xuanling asked Queen Xiao He cupped his hands and said eagerly:"King Wu has promised to treat him as a side concubine of the East Palace, and also asked Empress Xiao to inform her of the whereabouts of the imperial seal.

Empress Xiao smiled slightly and said,"Please also ask King Wu to screen out everyone present.""

When it comes to the national jade seal, we have to be careful.

The less people know about its whereabouts, the better.

When Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others heard this, they immediately realized that they had overstepped their bounds. They quickly bowed to Li Changqing and said:"King Wu, my lord. Please excuse yourself first!"

After the advisors, generals, and bodyguards left,

Queen Xiao glanced at Li Xiuning, who was sitting on Li Changqing's left side, bowed slightly to Li Changqing, and said:

"I have been separated from Wanzhi for more than a year, and I can't bear to look back on people's faces all day long. Therefore, he forced me to pass on the imperial seal and asked King Wu to forgive me. Li Changqing said:"I don't take this matter seriously. Empress Xiao, tell me where the national jade seal is.""

Empress Xiao replied:"On that day, Yu Wenhua and the late emperor were killed in Jiangdu. After that, they searched everywhere for the jade seal passed down to the country, but they couldn't find it.

Houyu Wenhuaji and Dou Jiande also pressed me for the whereabouts of the jade seal.

Because they are both rebellious officials and traitors, I both said that I did not know the whereabouts of the jade seal.

Li Tang replaced the Sui Dynasty, King Wu destroyed the Turks, made outstanding military achievements, and was the same as the emperor, so he could pass on the national jade seal.

That day, the fire destroyed the palace and when I fled, I gave the imperial seal to the Xiao family's children and took it back to the Xiao family in Lanling.

King Wu sent someone to the Xiao family to ask for the jade seal, and the Xiao family would not dare not refuse it."

The Xiao family of Lanling once founded Qi and Liang in the Southern Dynasties! They are the top family in the world.

Even if most people know that the jade seal is in the Xiao family, they would not dare to get it.

Even if Li Shimin comes to visit, the Xiao family will shirk it and deny that it contains the jade seal..

But Li Changqing sent people to get it, which was different.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, he was so powerful in Guanzhong that he suppressed all the princes.

Now, he has just destroyed the Turks, which can be said to be fierce and powerful.

Especially after Empress Xiao clearly informed the legend. When the national jade seal was located in the Xiao family, the Xiao family would not dare to disobey King Wu Tianwei unless they had the guts of a bear and a leopard. After learning the whereabouts of the national jade seal, Li Changqing was about to order someone to go to the Xiao family to retrieve it. Li Xiuning took the initiative to ask for the national jade seal and said:

"The jade seal of the country is passed down. This is a big event. It's not appropriate to send others to get it. I should go to Lanling Xiao's house in person."

Li Changqing pondered for a while, nodded and said:"Then I'll trouble Xiu Ning to do the hard work."
