Zhang Chao only took office for two days before going home.

According to the system, officials have nine days off for marriage, and relatives have one to five days off for marriage. When my father got married, Zhang Chao happened to be on vacation.

Now that Zhang Chao’s own wedding date has come, he of course took the wedding leave without hesitation and went home. Nine-day leave, paid leave, and the treatment of being an official is still good.

As for the work of building a workshop, he asked the general to record the supervisor and asked them to dig the foundation first as required. As for the others, I will talk about it when he comes back after marriage.

The Zhang family attaches great importance to Zhang Chao's marriage, and they married a woman from five surnames.

My father has been red every day, full of energy and regaining his second spring every day.

"It must be organized and lively. There must be no missing pomp, otherwise it will make people laugh."

Zhang Chao sat on the spring and autumn chair next to the coffee table, and found a very comfortable position to lie down. The floor heating in the house is this good, so you don’t have to stay on the kang all day long. The spring and autumn chairs made by the carpenters as he asked were very good. What a good solid wood, it would take tens of thousands of dollars to put it in the back.

"It's a pity that your adoptive father and the others have not come back yet." The father was a little regretful. If Qin Qiong waited for this vote, Zhang Chao's adoptive father and uncle were in Beijing, and if they supported him, the Zhang family would definitely be as imposing as the woman's family.

"Dad, the adoptive father and the others are on their way back, so they will definitely catch up with the wedding." Zhang Chao said.

Li Shimin, with the elite Guanzhong, swept Hebei with one move, captured and killed Liu Heita, and surrendered to the Hebei rebels. Gao Kaidao from Beiping saw that the situation was not right, immediately withdrew from Yuguan, that is, outside Shanhaiguan, and hugged his Turkic father's thigh.

Li Shimin was preparing to go north, but Li Yuan issued a decree to Li Shimin.

Li Yuan asked Li Shimin to return to the court, and then sent King Yuanji of Qi to lead troops to fight against the rebel Liu Heita from Shandong. As for Gao Kaidao in Hebei, Li Yuan sent his nephew, Li Yuan, King Lujiang, to serve as the governor of Youzhou, and ordered King Yan Li Yi and General Peng Guogong Wang Junkuo to assist to guard Youzhou Beiping.

Zhang Chao actually found this intention very strange. But after this close look, it was normal. After this year's Central Plains War, Li Shimin had already made great achievements and was difficult to win. In the end, he had to get a general of Tiance and added various titles, and Li Shimin reached its peak.

It was precisely because Li Shimin was too good that Li Yuan chose Li Shimin when Liu Heita began to rebel this year, but chose Li Shentong and Li Xiaochang. Later, because they were both defeated, they really had no choice but to choose Li Shimin.

Li Shimin did live up to his expectations and won with one move. He won cleanly and beautifully. But Li Yuan was also worried that the crown prince was not Li Shimin but Li Jiancheng. If the King of Qin continues to make contributions like this, there will be trouble in the future.

In addition, the prince had long felt the threat from Li Shimin. When he saw that the front had won, he immediately made a statement in front of Li Yuan. Then he had this order to let Yuan Ji attack Shandong and let Li Yuan guard Youzhou.

Li Yuan guarded Youzhou, rather than attacking Gao Kaidao outside the pass. The relationship between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks was quite strange, and they were both cooperative and prepared. At the beginning, the Li family borrowed troops from the Turks to buy horses and formed an alliance with the Turks to stabilize their Hedong base camp. Now that the Li family finally wanted to unify the world, the Turks were not very satisfied with the current situation of the Li family dominance. They also began to make small moves, and they occasionally crossed the lower boundary to rob.

Even the forces in the north that fought with the Li family in recent years, Liu Wuzhou, Liu Heita, Gao Kaidao, etc., were actually supported by the Turks.

The Li family was very dissatisfied with this, but due to their strength, they did not dare to go to war with the Turks openly. Therefore, Gao Kaidao retreated from the pass, so Li Yuan sent Li Yuan to guard Youzhou and did not let him chase and fight.

In fact, there are also concerns about transferring Li Shimin back to Beijing. If Li Shimin leads troops outside the pass, it will be bad if the Turks will directly interfere or even turn against each other.

When Li Shimin returned to Beijing, a large number of generals also followed the reign of the court, and most of the soldiers who went to Guanzhong had to return.

In some ways, Li Shimin was suppressed, and Li Yuanji also came to pick peaches. After all, with Li Shimin's current favorable situation, it would be fine to pacify Xu Yuanlang, Shandong, in the future. He would have no problem sending troops north and regaining Beiping, Liaoxi and other places.

But the situation is right now. After the imperial court issued an order, Li Yuanji came to pick peaches. As a result, Li Shimin only achieved half of the credit for suppressing the rebellion. Even only one-third of the credit was made. He gnawed the hard bones, but Li Yuanji ate the meat.

"Are they all back?"

"Duke Li of Cao will not come back, and the court will grant him the title of Henan Chief Executive and follow the King of Qi to attack Xu Yuanlang."

Li Shiji is quite interesting. Although he is very close to the King of Qin now and he followed Li Shimin to conquer Liu Heita last time, Zhang Chao observed when he was in Hebei that Li Shiji was quite smart and has always maintained a neutral attitude in the dispute between the King of Qin and the Crown Prince, which has shown signs.

Li Shimin struggled to win over Li Shiji, but he did not fall into Li Shimin's side. This attitude did make Li Shimin very unhappy, but from Li Shiji's perspective, he was not from the Qin Palace and had always been stationed in Hebei.

He was not willing to get involved too deeply in the relationship between the prince and the King of Qin. Zhang Chao even felt that Li Shiji had maintained a good relationship with Li Shimin openly, but secretly he was more inclined to stand on Li Jiancheng's side, after all, Li Jiancheng was the prince.

Zhang Chao never said anything about Li Shiji's attitude, and it was not his turn to say anything. Since ancient times, taking a team has been the most important thing. If you stand in the wrong team, you will end up miserably. Li Shiji doesn't want to take a team, and it's not wrong.

Li Shiji was different from generals like Qin Qiong. He was equivalent to King Yan Li Yi, King Wu Li Fuwei, King Dingxiang Li Daen and former King Beiping Gao Kaidao. Duke Xu Yuanlang of Lu County was the same type. He all surrendered to the Tang Dynasty with his troops and territory. He was a local powerful faction.

Li Shiji was added to the title of Henan General Manager by the court to assist Li Yuanji in the fight against Xu Yuanlang. It can also be seen that the court did not actually classify Li Shiji as Li Shimin. From Lizhou General Manager to Henan General Manager, Li Shiji was also promoted because of his contribution to suppressing the rebellion in Hebei.

"The adoptive father and the others will probably arrive in Beijing tomorrow."

Li Shiji did not come back, but many of the generals under Li Shimin, such as Qin Qiong, were recalled. Fortunately, Li Shimin's Tiance Mansion was originally a government office in Luoyang, and he was also in charge of the position of the Minister of the Taishang Tai at the East Shaanxi Road. Therefore, Li Shimin still controlled the base camp in Luoyang. When he returned to Beijing, he was still guarding Luoyang by Qu Tutong, the Minister of War of the East Shaanxi Road. He also appointed Li Daoxun, the cousin of the royal family with his excellent relationship with him, as the general manager of Mingzhou.

Marriage is a big deal, and of course Zhang Chao and the daughter of the Cui family are even more important.

Zhang Chao himself actually felt that it doesn’t matter whether the wedding schedule is not singular or not, but he had to consider Thirteen Niang. Originally, the legitimate daughter of the five surnames married into an ordinary poor family, which was already a very special situation. Even though Cui Shanfu was just a down-and-out Cui family, he had the three big words Qinghe Cui on his head.

If the wedding was simple, it would not be myself, but Thirteen Niang.

Therefore, my father said he wanted to do it in big way, and Zhang Chao also said he would do it in big way.

Not afraid of spending money. In order to give your new wife a face, my dad thinks that spending much money is worth it.

With Qin Qiongbao and others coming to attend the wedding, my father felt that the Zhang family would have a good face by then.

On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, when the eight-treasure porridge was eaten, the Cui family came to the shop.

The Cui family was very perfunctory about Cui Shisanniang's marriage, and the woman she invited was actually Cui Cong's wife.

The Cui family did not buy a dowry for Thiranniang, and they didn't even give it to anyone. Thiranniang came forward and asked Cui Cong to call a group of people from various shops and deliver his dowry to the Zhang family.

Thirteen Niang took the dowry left by her mother, and the dowry was still very generous. There were five farms, seven or eight shops, and three hundred taels of gold that had been placed in Zhang Chao's early, as well as many gold, silver jewelry, silk and satin.

Of course, it is impossible for all these things to be picked up by the Zhang family.

The gifts for the house were purchased separately, from silk cloth to porcelain, gold and silver to food, carriages and horses, etc., each of them was prepared eight pieces, and all copper coins were pulled into eight carts.

The long line of walking on the streets of Chang'an City has amazement for many people.

"Whose family is married to a daughter? Such a pomp!"

"The legitimate daughter of Cui's family in Qinghe is married."

"Oh, is it the one Choi Sun-fu who sells marriage?"

Someone immediately said that Cui Shanfu's marriage was a big interesting story about how he became a Chang'an early, and even became a joke for many noble families. Many branches of Shandong wealthy families were not as good as before, and it was not unusual to rely on selling marriage to maintain their status and economy. But Cui Shanfu could be considered the main branch in Cui in Qinghe. Not only did he sell his marriage, he even sold it to a poor family.

I really don't even want any face.

Of course, there are also some down-and-out Shandong gentry members who can't eat grapes in secret and say that the grapes are sour. Damn, Cui Shanfu sold a good marriage, one thousand taels of gold, eight million. This is the first person to sell the marriage, who sold so much money?

What's more, the Zhang family was involved in a relationship with a newcomer from Shandong, and his son-in-law was still Qin Shubao's adopted son.

"Didn't I hear that the Cui family won't buy a dowry for this daughter? Why did you watch it so much today?"

"Yes, I also heard a few days ago that Cui Shanfu and his wife wanted to take over the dowry of their ex-wife Zheng's family and not give it to the Thirteenth Lady."

"I heard that the Zheng family came forward, so the Cui family gave all the dowry of Mrs. Zheng to this Thirteenth Lady. But the others are unwilling to publish another article. What you see now are all the dowry of Mrs. Zheng."

"Bah, this Choi Shanfu is so shameless. He sells eight million yuan in marriage and refuses to buy a little dowry for his daughter."

"Who said no, it's simply a scum. My Shandong gentry produced such a person, which simply ruined the reputation of Shandong gentry!"
