Li Kuan respectfully watched Li Daozong carefully spread out his genealogy, opened one of the more than thirty books, and pointed to the third-layer nanmu box on the elevated shelf to let Li Kuan take it down, repeatedly urged to be careful, Li Kuan walked to the third shelf and took it off, holding both hands to Li Daozong's side: "Uncle Wang, is this this?"
Li Daozong didn't answer, he first took apart the silk cloth outside, took a look and nodded: "That's it!"
Li Kuan stretched his head and looked over. When Li Daozong turned around, he saw Li Kuan like a thief. He smiled and said, "Come and see if you want to!"
"It's not that Uncle Wang didn't nod his head!" Li Kuan smiled, Li Daozong smiled and nodded. He didn't expect that Li Kuan, who was fearless and fearless, would respect his uncle, and he lowered his head and continued to search for what he wanted. Of that volume of genealogy.
Li Kuan fixed his eyes on the genealogy with the words "Jade Butterfly Clan" written on it. Li Daozong picked up a book and looked at it carefully. Li Kuan curiously reached out and opened a page casually, what caught his eye was " "Yuan" is still the record of the hidden prince Li Jiancheng: "The eldest son of Emperor Gaozu, the eldest son of Emperor Gaozu, who was born in the ninth year of Emperor Kaihuang, died in the ninth year of Wude, and was born in Longxi Chengji, and was buried in Yinling Mausoleum!"
Except for a brief life record, the rest is the record of how many sons and daughters were born. The records of children and their fathers are similar, but there are not many records of daughters. As for the other related records, Li Kuan wanted to look through it again but was reminded by Li Daozong: "Take it lightly!"
Li Kuan was awkwardly stuck there, and he did not dare to turn over the genealogy in his hand. He turned his face to see Li Daozong's nervous face, and there was some reproach in his eyes. Li Kuan had to carefully put the genealogy back to its original place. Dare to keep flipping.
Li Daozong saw that he didn't continue to search, and didn't care about him. The main reason was that the paper used in the genealogy was too thin, and it was easy to break when searching like Li Kuan, which was very disrespectful. Li Kuan recalled the genealogy that he had just turned over. There were not only the Wenshi but also vertical charts. The vertical records were abbreviated records, and the Biwen was a detailed record of related deeds.
At this moment, Li Kuan suddenly remembered that he had mentioned the wife of Li Jiancheng in what he had just seen, and quickly asked: "Uncle Wang, do you know where my genealogy is?"
"What do you want that?" Li Daozong looked at Li Kuan strangely. Of course, Li Kuan couldn't say that he was looking for news about his mother from the genealogy, "Uncle Wang, do you know?"
"I have no right to search the emperor's Jade Butterfly!" Li Daozong warned Li Kuan not to search. Li Kuan was slightly disappointed when he heard that. He was thinking that searching the genealogy records should be able to find what he wanted, but he had no right to search. In other words, even if Li Daozong knew about it, he would not tell him.
Li Daozong didn't ask why, but instead asked Li Kuan to get paper and pen. As genealogies are not allowed to be circulated to outsiders, nor can they be copied, but the name and age are not included in this rule. When Li Kuan got the pen and paper, Li Daozong asked him to write down his notes, and Li Daozong reported one to Li Kuan to write down another.
An hour later, Li Daozong put down the genealogy and asked Li Kuan to return it to its original place. Li Kuan looked at a piece of paper full of names. Only then did he know that there were hundreds of women suitable for the clan, and he thought of choosing one of them. This task was really heavy.
"Uncle Wang, how old is Tubo Zanpu?" Li Kuan recalled the names he had memorized. Most of them were surnames without even a word. The one who wrote the most was age, almost between sixteen and eighteen. In between, some are fourteen years old. Is this too young
Li Daozong recalled: "Twenty and four!"
"Old cows eat tender grass?" Li Kuan whispered to himself, Li Daozong did not hear clearly: "What are you whispering?"
"It's nothing!"
Li Kuan shook his head quickly. If he was eighteen years old, it would be suitable. If he was fourteen years old, then there is really a suspicion of old cows eating tender grass. Although Songtsen Gampo was only 24 years old, he was not middle-aged, and he was somewhat unacceptable with a difference of ten years. He was still somewhat traditional in Li Kuan's thinking.
In fact, many people were married at the age of fourteen in the Tang Dynasty. There were not a few people who were married to their 30s or 40s. Li Daozong didn't think much, but felt that it was a good story to really promote this marriage. It is definitely a good marriage for the married couple.
Naturally, Li Kuan would not object to the marriage, because he knew that Princess Wencheng married Songtsen Gambo and promised to build her own palace, the famous Potala Palace. Although the modern Potala Palace has undergone several expansions to form its current scale, this affection is definitely worthy of praise for the ages. How else did Princess Ai Wencheng spend so much time building the palace for it
If it was because of Princess Wencheng’s identity, Li Kuan felt unnecessary. Shan Gaolu would not say anything. Moreover, the water thrown out by the married daughter in the traditional way of thinking, even if Datang is strong, it is impossible to start a war because of a daughter. Li Shimin is not so. impulse.
The only explanation is that after marrying Princess Wencheng, Songtsen Gambo will truly fall in love with each other, and willingly build a palace for him to show his love. This is the most simple and sincere feelings of the Tibetans, and Li Kuan It is also known that Princess Wencheng will be a goddess family with Songtsan Gampo after marrying away from Tubo, and she is truly loved by thousands of people.
Since the daughter who married far away is happy, it can also promote the friendship between Datang and Tubo. The relationship between the two countries is harmonious. The people at the border will naturally live and work in peace and contentment. This is an absolute win-win situation. As long as the Tubo delegation is present, Li Kuan will automatically Cooperate throughout.
Taimiao and Hongxu Temple are both in the imperial city, and the two places are only one street apart. So after they left the Taimiao, they went to the Sifang Pavilion of Hongxi Temple. The curator of Sifang Pavilion hurriedly bowed to greet him when he saw it. Your Highness, Lord!"
Li Kuan didn't like the blind date at first, and walked behind intentionally or unintentionally. Li Daozong had no choice but to step forward and ask: "Where is the Tubo mission?"
"In East Room No. 2!"
"lead the way!"
Li Daozong ordered the curator to lead the way. The curator of the Sifang Pavilion nodded and said that he bowed and took the two of them to the East Room No. 2. They walked through the long corridor, and Li Kuan glanced at the layout of the building next to it, which was completely a leisure holiday. There is a gurgling spring between the rocks and the mountains, and there is a cluster of lush mangosteen next to it. Due to the cold weather, there is a row of jagged ice skewers hanging under the rocks by the spring.
After a while, the two came to the wing, and the curator shouted: "Can the envoy of Gardong Zan be here?"
"What's the matter with the curator?" Gal Dongzan opened the door to the wing, and saw Li Daozong and Li Kuan, and quickly took off his hats and saluted: "The two adults are here, and the envoys have missed a long way to welcome you, but I hope you forgive me!"
Li Daozong smiled disapprovingly: "Envoys, don't be polite!"
Gal Dongzan hurriedly greeted the two of them to enter the room, and the curator was also invited into the room. The three entered the room and the other two bowed and waited early. After Li Daozong, Li Kuan and others sat down first, the Tubo delegation was seated. , Gal Dongzan said straight to the point: "Is an adult come here because of a choice of relatives?"
Li Daozong nodded: "Here is the roster of the females of my royal clan of the right age, please visit the envoy!" The full text of the article is the fastest んττρs:/м.χ八㈠zщ.còм/
Li Kuan handed the roster to Gal Dongzan with both hands. The latter looked at it roughly. Only the name had no image. He asked a little embarrassed: "How can I know the person without the image?" The genius remembered the Chinese in one second. 8/1/z/o/m/
Li Daozong replied: "The envoys don’t have to be anxious. This list is already listed. Tomorrow, letting the staff of the officials accompany you is equivalent to going to meet one by one in the royal clan. The day of marriage."
Gal Dongzan was overjoyed and bowed and thanked him; instead, Li Kuan was crying and unwilling: "It's okay to look at the portrait. Is it necessary to run one by one?" Thinking about having visited various government offices throughout the capital last month, Now it's better to let him accompany him to run from house to house, which makes him very depressed.
