    After hearing this, Wenhan smiled calmly, raised his head silently, and said softly.

    "Since ancient times, life and death are determined by destiny. I was born in a poor family, and I am able to achieve the dignity I have today. It is all because of the outstanding men in the world, both civil and military personnel. They are devoted to each other and the people are sincerely convinced. Only then can we establish the foundation of the Tang Dynasty. Shun'er, you should remember this.  . As an emperor, you should put the people's wishes first, and you should not insist on forcing others to conquer others with virtue. Otherwise, you will be cruel and unkind. You are smart and talented, but you pay too much attention to fame and fortune.  Unify. But this world is not that world. Although the land of China is vast, it is actually the tip of the iceberg. If you are ambitious, you will definitely be able to expand the borders for the Western Tang Dynasty and become the greatest emperor in history!  This is a disaster. If you engage in wars and conscripts on a large scale, the people will not be safe, and they will inevitably rebel. You should remember that when the Western Tang Dynasty was far more powerful than other countries, you should treat each other with courtesy first.  , give it as a benefit, win the hearts of the people of the country, and then grant him the status of a king. In this way, the country will be in chaos first, and in time it will become a tributary of the Western Tang Dynasty. The father has been worried about the business of the Western Tang Dynasty for many years, and he wants to teach it.  As citizens, we are born with talents that will be useful. As the saying goes, if there is a will, things will come true, and God rewards hard work. If the people of the Western Tang Dynasty could be self-reliant and self-sufficient, the country should supplement it with policies instead of increasing taxes, fearing that the people will be strengthened and the country will be disrupted.  , this is a fallacy. The people can be self-sufficient, enjoy prosperity and wealth, live and work in peace and contentment, and can only be grateful to the country, and the royal family is respected and admired, so how can they rebel?  I hope that with the power of one person, I can monopolize the power of the emperor and make the people of the world surrender. Who knows, within a few decades, the people everywhere will be tortured and revolt one after another, and the Qin Dynasty will be destroyed. Shun, you should use this to lead.  Take this as a warning and never make the same mistake again!¡±

    As a person of later generations, Wenhan had experienced decades of military career in troubled times, and he had long understood the reasons for the replacement of dynasties and the causes of the prosperity and decline of the country.  Wen Shun's eyes flashed with light, as if he suddenly understood. The truth behind his father's words was much more profound than what he had learned for many years.  Wen Han saw that Wen Shun seemed to have understood, and the faint smile on his face was even brighter.  After a moment, Wen Shun's spirit was shaken, and his admiration for his father was like a surging river, and he concentrated on the words.

    "Father, your child must think twice and reflect on himself!"

    "Okay! You can understand that the truth behind this cannot be understood in a moment. It shows that you have heard it in your heart. I am very happy as a father."

    Wen Han nodded slightly, suddenly changed the subject, and said to Wen Shun with a calm face.

    "This is the end of military and state affairs. From now on, my father will discuss family matters with you."

    Wen Shun's face was shocked, thinking that Wen Han's condition was getting worse and he wanted to make a will with him early, but his face suddenly changed, as if he had been struck by a bolt from the blue.  Unexpectedly, Wenhan said this.

    "Shun'er, do you remember that my father mentioned the matter of getting a wife to you before?"

    When Wen Shun heard this, his high-spirited heart was relieved, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.  However, Wen Shun soon became bitter again. Now his thoughts were almost all on military and state affairs, and he never thought about getting a wife and starting a family.  What's more, his mother had just passed away. According to the etiquette and law, Wen Shun had to stay in mourning for three years, during which he was not allowed to marry, otherwise it would violate the etiquette.  Wen Shun then explained it accordingly.  After hearing this, Wenhan smiled faintly and said, "Yes."

    "It doesn't matter. Gu Zao discussed with the Prime Minister. The situation here is special. In the near future, the Western Tang Dynasty and the Wei Dynasty will go to war, and I will only have you as my only son. According to etiquette, I only need to give you an edict to teach you.  If you are loyal to me, you can get married. What's more, your mother has been looking forward to your marriage for many years. When the spirit in heaven learns about this, she will only be happy and will never blame you. "

    Wen Han¡¯s eyes flickered and he looked at Wen Shun closely, with an unquestionable expression on his face.  Wen Shun looked bitter, but replied.

    "But I don't have anyone I love. If I rush into marriage, I'm afraid I'll delay my marriage."

    "Oh? Is that so? My father still remembers that when you were young, you repeatedly said that you would not marry anyone other than your little sister Wang. Now that your little sister Wang is in the right age to get married, my father will discuss this matter with the king's servant today. The king's servant  But I am overjoyed, so I am waiting for my father to send a matchmaker to propose marriage. Wang Taifu has been loyal to the Western Tang Dynasty and has worked hard for many years. He is also an important minister of the country. If the two families can get married, it will not only be a blessing to the country, but also not fulfill your childhood wish.  ?¡±

    As soon as Wen Han said this, Wen Shun couldn't help but remember his childhood memories.  And the Miss Wang that Wen Han mentioned was Wang Yuanji, the daughter of the imperial servant Wang Lang.  I think Wen Shun was in love at that time, and he and Wang Yuanji were childhood sweethearts.  The two were young, but both were prodigies with extraordinary intelligence and precocious minds, and they suddenly felt good about each other.  Wen Shun even made an oath to Wang Yuanji that he would not marry anyone other than her.

    At that time, Wang Yuanji was only eleven years old, but she was already a beauty. She often wore goose yellow clothes with long flowing clothes. She had ice muscles and jade bones that could be broken by a blow. She had beautiful black hair and exquisite facial features.  Every moment of silence and movement, there is an intoxicating beauty.At that time, Wen Shun was fourteen years old. He was untrained, arrogant, and unruly. He talked loudly with Wang Yuanji all day long about the affairs of the world. He even set his ambition that when he grew up, he would build a kingdom for his father and benefit the world.  common people.

    And four or five years later, the Qiang and Hu rebelled.  Wen Shun volunteered for military service and began his military career.  In the past few years, he has followed the army in east and west expeditions, and has almost never had any free time.  Wen Shun achieved his ambition at a young age and worked hard to achieve his goals, but he gradually forgot about his children.  However, Wang Yuanji's goose-yellow figure often appeared whenever Wen Shun was sad and depressed.

    Thinking of Wang Yuanji, Wen Shun felt a warm current in his heart. Like a child whose thoughts were told, Wen Shun twisted his head and stopped predicting.  Finally, under Wen Han's hot eyes, Wen Shun looked at the face that had been ravaged by time and wind and frost, resolute yet somewhat kind, and his heart trembled, and he said.

    "This is all old news. How come my father still remembers it?"

    "Haha. Back then, you would whisper to your mother from time to time. But you didn't know that your mother was very happy and she would whisper in my father's ears day and night. How could my father not remember?"

    Wen Han's eyes lit up and Wen Shun's expression changed. Wen Han could tell that his son was still deeply enamored with Wang Yuanji. After many years, Wen Shun still had this heart, which didn't mean that he must be sincere to Wang Yuanji.  Wen Shun blushed again when he heard Wen Han making fun of him. He hesitated for a long time before answering.

    "Although my father has made a marriage agreement with Mrs. Wang, I don't know what my little sister thinks. After so many years, if my little sister has already had a sweetheart, why shouldn't the child try to force others to beat the couple? Although it is often said that marriage matters are the responsibility of the parents.  Destiny is what the matchmaker said. But the husband and wife should care about each other. After all, it is a matter of two people. If they don't treat each other sincerely, how can they grow old together with their children? "

    Wen Shun was indeed Wen Han¡¯s biological son, and his thoughts were similar to those of later generations.  After hearing this, Wen Han's face darkened and he nodded slightly.

    "What Shun'er said is also reasonable. Then if you have any ideas, you might as well tell me."

    Wen Shun originally thought that Wen Han would scold him, but he didn't expect that Wen Han actually agreed with his statement. He felt happy and answered.

    "I haven't seen my little sister for a long time. Although my little sister has a gentle temperament, she is soft on the outside and dry on the inside. Forgive me for being presumptuous, but please ask your father to ask someone to tell the King's servant to conceal this matter. Then I will see you another day.  Come visit me and find out what my little sister is thinking. If the little sister is interested, the child will obey the father and get married as soon as possible!"

    Wen Shun was talented and intelligent, and he had already realized that his father was deliberately deceiving him to come back to get married, and his uncle Xu Huang was also cooperating in this matter.  However, a true man kept his promise. Before Wen Shun left, he promised Xu Huang that he would respond to his father's requests.  Wen Shun would never break his promise, not to mention that Wen Shun was interested in Wang Yuanji.  Sure enough, when Wenhan heard that Wen Shun had agreed to this matter, he burst into laughter and applauded. Without thinking, he followed Wen Shun's request and quickly told the courtiers to tell Wang Lang and Wen Shun's thoughts.

    That night, in the Taipu Mansion.  Wang Lang had just come back and was in a very good mood. He even drank a few glasses of wine during the dinner.  After dinner, his old wife, Mrs. Li, saw that Wang Lang was in a good mood and wanted to have a chat.  Suddenly, someone rushed over and whispered so and so in Wang Lang's ear.  Wang Lang was overjoyed when he heard this. He laughed and talked with his wife Li.

    "Haha! Our daughter finally got her wishful husband!!"

    When Mrs. Li heard this, she was surprised and happy. She was about to ask, but Wang Lang hurried out.  Mrs. Li kept her heart in mind and made a gesture to the attendant who came to report. The attendant also understood and hurried over with a smile.  Mrs. Li found out from her entourage that the person who came was actually a courtier from Chang'an Palace. She burst into laughter and took out an unknown amount of silver from her sleeve and gave it to the entourage as a reward.  After a while, Wang Lang came back with a calm expression.  When Mrs. Li saw this, her heart was filled with joy. She couldn't help but twitch her hands and hurriedly went to ask.

    "Master, what went wrong?"

    "Huh? It's okay, it's okay! Just pretend you didn't hear what I just said!"

    Wang Lang looked shocked and waved his hand.  It turns out that he knows his old wife's character very well, and he likes to ask long questions. He is especially concerned about his daughter's affairs, and he will definitely get to the bottom of it and find out.  Moreover, Li loved his daughter very much, and the King of the Western Tang Dynasty specifically ordered not to reveal this matter. It would be a bad thing if Li's word leaked out.  So, Wang Lang simply pretended that it didn't happen.  But wouldn't Li give up so easily? He raised his eyebrows, said "Okay", and gritted his teeth, ready to fight Wang Lang to the death.  Wang Lang's expression changed and he complained secretly.  Although Wang Lang was usually extremely strict with others, he seemed to show that even if the emperor broke the law, he would not be lenient, strictly follow the rules, and fear nothing from heaven or earth.  But Wang Lang was only afraid of Li's old wife.  Now Wang Lang saw Li's behavior, even if it turned the world upside down, he still wanted to ask clearly.son.  Wang Lang quickly pretended to be hesitant and said na na.

    "Hey! There was an accident at the Divine Barracks, and I urgently need to rush to deal with it. The King has an order that all matters related to the Divine Barracks are forbidden to be discussed. Don't ask too many questions. I am about to leave!"

    Wang Lang finished speaking and hurried out of the house as if running away without waiting for Li's reply.  Li's face changed. She saw that Wang Lang was trying to avoid her, and her heart was burning with anxiety. Although she knew that Wang Lang was trying to push back, Wang Lang put out the magic barracks.  Li didn't dare to be presumptuous.  Seeing Wang Lang leaving, Mrs. Li was so angry that her face turned blue and purple, and she said secretly.

    ¡°Old man, after this matter is over, let¡¯s see how I deal with you!!¡±

    As soon as Li's thoughts passed, she thought carefully for a while, and suddenly thought that her precious daughter was talented and intelligent, and she would definitely be able to figure out one or two of them, so she turned around and hurriedly looked towards the west courtyard of the house.

    The night passed.  Wen Shun's idea caused great harm to Wang Lang.  Wang Lang was afraid that his old wife, Mrs. Li, would be entangled and stayed away all night, so he went to bed in the palace that night.  Early the next morning, at dawn, the sun rose high.  In the Taipu Mansion, in the garden of the west courtyard, Wang Yuanji got up early and changed into a goose-yellow dress, embroidered with beautiful and delicate peony patterns. It was really beautiful. As she walked, she interacted with the various rare flowers and plants in the courtyard.  Compete for beauty together.  But the most intoxicating among them is the beautiful woman who is as beautiful as a flower and can captivate the country.  Wang Yuanji seemed to be in a good mood. She was currently in the small pavilion, and her maid Xiaolan was polishing ink on the stone table.  Wang Yuanji's beautiful eyes, which are like stars, are glowing with bursts of color. Her hands are as white as snow, and she is painting with a brush.  I don¡¯t know how long it took, but I saw in the painting a beautiful scene of flowers and a small pavilion with strange stones. Isn¡¯t this exactly the scene in the courtyard?  However, in the painting, we can see a young man wielding a gun and practicing martial arts. He is full of energy and lifelike.  Suddenly, a servant came in a hurry. Xiaolan was afraid of disturbing Wang Yuanji's elegance, so she stepped lightly to greet him.  The servant said a few words in Xiaolan's ear.  Xiaolan immediately rushed back like a happy magpie.  At this time, Wang Yuanji happened to have finished painting. She looked closely at Xiaolan with a bit of anticipation, a bit of nervousness, and a bit of shyness.

    ¡°Miss!! Sure enough, His Royal Highness is here!!¡±
