The Golden Age Chapter 855: Conditions

Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there has been no precedent for marrying a princess outside. Even in the previous dynasties, they were forced to marry a real princess, and they would hardly marry a real princess. Both sides knew it well, it was nothing more than a matter of reputation. , The Central Plains dynasty was able to marry outside with the title princess, and it was considered to give the other side a face, and the other side would not entangle it.

Although the Bohai Kingdom is a large country in the Northeast, in the eyes of the dynasties of the Central Plains, it is only a small country. In the strategic planning of the dynasties of the Central Plains, the threat to the northeast has never been listed as the real threat of the empire. The princesses who marry the true royal lineage, even titled princesses, are one of the few.

Yuan Gai Wushuang was actually not ashamed at this moment, letting Datang marry a princess of royal blood, the Manchu civil and martial arts were all sneered in their hearts.

Kong Mozhuang, the Shangshu Book of the Ministry of Rites, immediately said: "Marry the princess, the free saint will decide, but it is your turn to decide? This is really unreasonable."

"What if someone beats you all over the floor for teeth in three days?" Dou Yan also sneered.

Yuan Gai Wushuang said: "If anyone can beat me, immediately donate 10,000 gold."

"Joke." Qin Xiao said with a smile: "If you win, I want Princess Datang to marry away. If you lose, only 10,000 gold will be used. Who will do with you for such a loss-making business? My Princess Datang Very noble, Jinzhiyuye, if you really want to show your sincerity, you should also come up with some real things."

Yuan Gai Wushuang said lightly: "What do you want?"

"Simple, within three days, if someone defeats you, you will just give up this time asking for marriage." Qin Xiao said: "Since you can't beat the man of the Tang Dynasty, naturally you are not qualified to marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty. Besides, listen. It is said that your Bohai country now has a large number of war horses, and this time only a hundred horses are used as the bride price. It is really shabby. If you lose, how about offering five hundred war horses to Datang?"

"Wait a minute!" Cui Shangyuan did not wait for Yuangai Wushuang to speak, and immediately stopped, but instead turned to the saint and respectfully said: "His Majesty, the words of Viscount Qin, does His Majesty agree?"

The saint frowned.

Her original plan was to marry the eldest grandson Mei'er to King Yong Zang in order to constrain the Yuangai family. Who knew that the Bohai people were cunning and sly, and even asked for marriage for Yuangai at the same time. If she promised two marriages, then The previous plan was in vain, and I had to catch up with the grandson Meier I had always loved, and even a princess. In this way, Yuan Gaijian and King Yong Zang both married the woman of Datang, in Bohai. It is also difficult to have too much fluctuation due to the marriage with Datang.

Of course, she can also give the King Yong Zang, but she refuses Yuan Gaijian’s request for marriage, but in this way, she directly slaps Yuan Gai and builds a big ear scraper, which will inevitably damage Yuan Gaijian’s face. , Will also make the entire Yuangai family full of deeper hostility towards Datang.

The sage has not forgotten that Bohai’s military power is now in the hands of the Yuangai family. If the Yuangai family is instigated, even if the eldest grandson Meier is married to King Yongzang, the Northeast will still be insecure, of course. Not the original intention of the saint.

Yuan Gai Wushuang's condition at the moment presented a big problem.

Since Yuan Gai Wushuang dared to set up the arena, he must be very confident. Although the saint doesn’t think Yuan Gai Wushuang can really persist in the arena for three days, but in the end, no one can beat him, is it true? Want to marry two of your own daughters?

Marrying a titled princess, the saint is already to take care of the overall situation. If She Yue and even Chang Ningyuan are really married to Bohai, this is not just a question of two princesses, the saint is certainly

I will also consider the two bloodlines of my dearest relatives to marry away, and at the same time think that these two princesses are the real bloodlines of the Li family. If they fall into the hands of the Bohai people, there may be some storms that will be caused, so Regardless of Sheyue or Changning, especially Sheyue, it is definitely not possible to marry to the Bohai Sea.

Moreover, the conditions proposed by Qin Xiao are impossible for the saint to accept.

If Yuangai Wushuang loses, her family will give up. Of course, this is not what the saint wants to see. From the beginning, she hoped to use her in-law relationship to stabilize the situation on the Bohai side. Her **** case was as big and small as possible, so how could she allow Qin Xiao to make such a condition?

She was muttering to herself, Yuan Gai Wushuang had already said loudly: "Your Majesty, if Tang Jing really fails to fight Yingjie, the foreign minister does not have to put on the ring, and he has never said that he will be a foreign minister."

"On the Golden Temple, there is no reason to take back what has been said." The state minister said in a low voice: "Since the son wants to set up the arena to appreciate the martial arts of the Tang Dynasty, it is OK." I have a suggestion, I don’t know if it’s inappropriate to talk about it."

The saint was hesitating, and immediately said: "The prime minister said it's okay."

"The son of the world set up the ring in the Sifang Pavilion. Within three days, as long as the young talents under the age of 20 in my Datang, I can take the stage to fight." Guoxiangdao: "The specific rules are determined by the Bohai delegation and The Ministry of Rites and Honghe Temple deliberated in detail, and they must always be fair and just.” After a pause, he said: “If no one can defeat the son of the world after three days, then the saint will make an decree and give him a gift to King Bohai and Mo If I leave the branch, I will also marry a royal princess in Datang."

Many courtiers frowned, thinking that if the old country minister spoke, the saint would not object to it. However, if the royal princess was married to Bohai, Tang’s face would be really detrimental, but since the country’s minister proposed so , It should be a plan in mind.

"What if someone defeats Yuangai Wushuang?" the saint asked.

Guoxiang smiled and said: "Then according to Qin Xiao's words, Bohai will add more gifts, but not five hundred, but one thousand horses, plus one hundred thousand taels of gold and one hundred thousand taels of silver." Then he continued: "However, the marriage between the two countries cannot be stopped for any reason. It is just that the saints will decide whoever will be sent to Bohai to get married at that time, and the Bohai Mission shall not make any more meanings."

Someone nodded slightly at once, thinking that the prime minister of the country is the master of the country.

The marriage between the two countries still has to continue, but if Yuangai Wushuang loses, he can't think of marrying the princess of the Tang Dynasty. When the time comes, the saint will assign the titled princess to go there, and the state minister asked Bohai to increase a large number of gifts. It was a dowry gift to marry the titled princess.

The prime minister is obviously confident that Yuan Gai Wushuang will lose in the ring. The officials thought in their hearts that this is the Capital of the Tang Dynasty after all. Why is there such a thing as a young hero? This Yuan Gai Wushuang is so arrogant, even if he is really capable, but Can no one beat Yuangai Wushuang for the 100,000 children in Kyoto?

This person is extremely arrogant, and when he enters the ring, he really needs someone to come forward and kill him.

The saint pondered for a moment before he asked: "Cui Shangyuan, do you accept the proposal of the minister of the country?"

The Bohai delegation has been looking at the saint all the time, and only waiting for the saint’s words to speak, Cui Shangyuan’s eyes were filled with joy, and he immediately said: “The proposal of the Lord Minister is fair and just, and the foreign ministers are willing to accept it. ." Looking at Yuangai Wushuang, he asked: "Shizi, what do you mean?"

"His Majesty the Emperor has the will, so he naturally obeys it." Yuan Gaiwushuang's eyes showed that he couldn't hide it

Excited expression, said: "Tomorrow morning, we will set up a ring in front of the Sifang Pavilion, waiting for the heroes of Datang to come and give us advice. After three days, we will ask His Majesty the Emperor to make a decision."

Qin Xiao stared at Yuan Gai Wushuang, but suddenly felt that the expressions and attitudes of these Bohai envoys seemed to have a sense of success. It seemed that the Bohai envoy came to visit today and asked the saint to agree to them. Getting off the ring is their goal of going up to the court today, and now they seem to have achieved their goal, showing unconcealed joy.

Does the Bohai delegation really think that Yuangai Wushuang's three-day arena must be the winner?

There are people outside the world, there are days outside the world, there are millions of people in the Capital of Tang Dynasty, and there are bound to be countless young heroes. Why does Yuan Gai Wushuang think that none of the innumerable young heroes will be his adversary?

He was suspicious, but felt that this matter was not as simple as it seemed.

However, since the saint has agreed, there is no retreat for both Datang and himself.

If Yuan Gai Wushuang can't be defeated in the ring within three days, Princess Musk Moon and even Princess Changning will marry Bohai far away. Of course Qin Xiao cannot accept it anyway.

"The Ministry of Rites will assist you in setting up the arena." The saint finally said: "After three days, the result will be known, and then I will have my own will."

Cui Shangyuan said: "The foreign ministers wait to thank the emperor Longen." Once again, they bowed down and saluted, and everyone in the Bohai delegation bowed and saluted. Then, under the leadership of Cui Shangyuan, they withdrew from the Jinluan Temple.

Some of the officials have not recovered yet, thinking that today the Bohai Mission asked for a kiss, how did it get to the end, it turned out that the Bohai Mission set up the ring?

However, in this fight, Datang really can’t have the slightest sloppyness. In any case, Yuan Gai Wushuang must be defeated in the ring within three days, otherwise, not only will the face of Tang be lost, but also the match. The last two royal princesses, that really lost his wife and broke down.

The saint seemed to be thinking about something, and the civil and martial arts of the Manchu dynasty did not dare to speak. After a while, the saint stood up and said lightly: "Retreat first."

The executive **** screamed to retreat, and the officials exited the Jinluan Temple in an orderly manner. Before Guoxiang had walked out of the Jinluan Temple, a deacon **** came over and whispered in his ear. The state minister nodded slightly and followed the deacon **** to the apse. In a room, the saint was waiting inside at the moment. Seeing the minister of state came in, signaled the **** and palace lady beside him to withdraw, and then stared at the minister of state and asked: "Does the minister of state have the certainty of victory? Whether to grant relatives is in my control. Among them, now they have agreed to their terms, and the outcome is unpredictable. If there is really no one to defeat Yuangai Wushuang, then what? If it weren’t for your wink, I wouldn’t easily agree."

There was a slight dissatisfaction in her tone.

"The Bohai delegation is now asking for relatives and wishing to marry the royal princess. If they refuse directly, it will inevitably make them feel resentful." The Guoxiang respectfully said: "If they are inferior in skill and cannot bear to marry our royal princess, then It is their own incompetence, no wonder Tang. The saint, Yuan Gai Wushuang indiscriminately killed innocent people and owed 36 lives. Resentment is very likely to involve the court."

The saint said indifferently: "Let the Bohai people put on the stage, can it be solved?"

"Yes!" The state minister nodded and said: "As long as you defeat Yuangai Wushuang in the ring, or even wound him, not only will the face of Bohai people be wiped out, but also the grievances in the hearts of the people will be alleviated. As long as his grievances are vented, nothing will happen."
