Save the Bachelor of Heaven

"King Yi?!" Li Zuo immediately looked at Xiang Nan.

He seemed to be thinking deeply, but in fact, what Li Yan mentioned was exactly what he meant.

"King Yi is good at fighting. He won a complete victory in the battle of Danchi. He is really the best person to manage Danchi." Li You said eloquently.

"Father, although my son was lucky enough to win the battle, it was all due to the majesty and protection of my father and the powerful soldiers and generals of the imperial court. I knew that I was unable to shoulder this important task.

However, when it comes to the fact that the imperial court does not know much about the Western Territory, I have a humble opinion. My son has spent a lot of time in the Western Region and has a good understanding of its folk customs.

I sincerely ask my father to allow me to revise the local chronicles of the Western Territory and describe the situation in the Western Territory in detail so that the imperial court can control the Western Territory. If things go on like this, officials can learn about the affairs of the Western Territory through local chronicles. In a few years, all officials will be familiar with the Western Territory! Xiang Nan immediately stood up and said.

Seeing what he said, Li Hao pondered for a moment, and finally nodded, "King Yi went to practice for a while, and he has indeed become much calmer. What he just played... is accurate!"

Although he really wanted to send Xiang Nan to serve in the Western Region to clear the way for Li Chengye to ascend the throne in the future. Just like in the play, before Li Chengyin ascended the throne, he also sent King Rong and King Yun to Jiangnan and Shuzhou.

However, Xiang Nan was also his son after all, and he didn't want to make things too ugly.

Xiang Nan's proposal to repair books was acceptable to him.

Firstly, revising the "Local Chronicles of the Western Region" would help the court understand and govern the Western Region; secondly, if Xiang Nan went to compile the book, he would be far away from the center of power and would not pose a threat to Li Chengye.

After the "Local Chronicles of the Western Region" was compiled, he would naturally have an excuse to send Xiang Nan out.

"I'm a little tired. Let's discuss the selection of Zhenbei Marquis later." Li Fu then said, "Retreat from the court!"

Everyone saluted and respectfully sent the emperor back to the palace.

…

Xiang Nan then settled down to write books in Hongwen Hall and did not care about the selection of Zhenbei Marquis.

In the play, Li Chengyin concealed his secrets and helped Zhao Jingyu find the position of Zhenbei Hou. But at the same time he offended the three major forces, Li Chengye, Gao Ming, and Zhang Meiniang, making the three families wary of him from then on.

Moreover, Li Chengyin originally wanted to put a nail in Danchi so that he could better control the Western Region. But in fact, Zhao Jingyu is a two-faced and treacherous villain who is simply unreliable.

He never took the initiative to help Li Chengyin. Even when Li Chengyin was framed by Li Chengye, he even asked the Zhao family to draw a clear line with him.

Therefore, Li Chengyin's series of operations not only failed to gain any benefits, but also offended the prime minister and the queen, and even made the prince look at him covetously.

Therefore, Xiang Nan had no intention of doing such a thankless task.

And he knew that Gao Ming and Zhang Meiniang were more anxious than him now.

Because once he is sent to the Western Region to be the Marquis of Zhenbei, Gao Ming and Zhang Meiniang will have no hope at all. Once Emperor Li Hao dies and the new Emperor Li Chengye takes over, the Gao family and the Zhang family will repeat the tragedy of the Gu and Chen families.

Therefore, they will never let him go to the Western Region, and will definitely try their best to stop him.

Therefore, Xiang Nan doesn't have to rush around at all. Everything has its own way.

…

Sure enough, two days later, Gao Ming invited Xiang Nan to his mansion.

"Come here, bring King Yi's favorite snack." He greeted with a smile, and soon the servant brought walnut cake.

"Thank you, uncle. This walnut cake is really to my liking. It's fragrant, soft, sweet but not greasy." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "The pastry chef in my palace doesn't have this skill."

"If Your Highness likes it, I will send the pastry chef to your house." Gao Ming said with a smile.

"A gentleman doesn't take away what others enjoy, how dare I take it away from my uncle." Xiang Nan waved his hand and smiled.

"We are all family, there is no need to be so polite." Gao Gao Ming said with a wave of his hand.

"In that case, I would like to thank my uncle." Xiang Nan nodded.

"Yes." Gao Ming nodded, "I heard that the daughter of General Zhao Jingyu admires His Highness very much?"

"It's true." Xiang Nan was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Then what is His Highness's impression of her?" Gao Ming asked again with a smile.

"Miss Zhao is young and beautiful, dignified and elegant, and has a good temperament and a good heart. She is quite a good person." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "Why does my uncle ask?"

"I intend to be your matchmaker and let her be your concubine, what do you think?" Gao Ming explained.

Xiang Nan was stunned and realized that Gao Ming wanted to tie Zhao Jingyu to serve him through marriage.

In the play, Gao Ming once wanted to recommend Zhao Jingyu to be the Marquis of Zhenbei, but was stopped by Li Chengyin. He thought it was his third son, Gao Zhen, who was jealous of Zhao Jingyu's son, Zhao Shixuan, over Ming Yufang's Mingyue, which led to his failure to win over Zhao Jingyu, so he severely beat Gao Zhen.

"Miss Zhao, be my concubine?!" Xiang Nan pondered for a moment, and then said, "Uncle, as far as I know, Zhao Jingyu has always wanted his daughter to be his second brother's concubine."

Li Chengye is now the prince, and as his concubine, he will at least be granted the title of noble concubine in the future. Even if you are lucky, becoming a queen is not impossible.

But Xiang Nan was still just a prince, and it was still unclear whether he could become a prince. How could he convince Zhao Jingyu to give his daughter to him as a concubine? !

"It is good to be the prince's concubine, but the prince cannot guarantee that he will become the Marquis of Zhenbei." Gao Gao Ming said quietly.

"Uncle wants Zhao Jingyu to be the Marquis of Zhenbei?!" Xiang Nan said with a surprised look on his face, "Uncle, as far as I know, Zhao Jingyu is a heartless and unjust person who follows the influence of others and is not a person worthy of promotion."

Zhao Jingyu's official reputation is not very good. At that time, it was only by relying on the foolishness of being higher than the Ming Dynasty that we got the opportunity to conquer the southwest. But after being named the general of the auxiliary country, his tail immediately stood up and he no longer listened to Gao Ming's orders.

Therefore, he was recalled to the capital by Gao Ming and idled for several years. From the majestic king of the southwest, he became an idle minister. Because of this, he also became a joke among the official circles in the capital.

"That's why I suggested that His Highness accept his daughter as his concubine." Gao Ming explained, "Zhao Jingyu only has this daughter, so it's impossible not to think about her."

Xiang Nan blinked, knowing that Gao Ming was referring to others.

Gao Ming loved his four children deeply, so he thought that Zhao Jingyu would also take care of Zhao Sesu and serve Xiang Nan for her sake.

But in fact, Zhao Jingyu is just a power animal. For him, the happiness of his children is not as important as power.

In the play, Zhao Sese was driven crazy by Li Chengyin, but he still worked for Li Chengyin. He also believed that after Qu Xiaofeng fled back to Xizhou, his daughter Zhao Sese would become the queen, and he would become the head of the state, thus replacing Gao Ming and becoming a new generation of powerful ministers.

Therefore, for Zhao Jingyu, even if he marries his daughter to Xiang Nan, he will not serve Xiang Nan as long as Xiang Nan cannot bring him benefits.

On the contrary, if Li Chengye gives him enough benefits, he can even sacrifice his son and daughter.

Therefore, Gao Ming's calculation was wrong.

However, Xiang Nan considered that this matter would not be harmful to him, so he agreed.
