Chapter 44: Announcing the marriage in the hall, Li Xueyan becomes the alliance princess

But things often don't turn out as perfectly as imagined.

The usually obedient and lovely Changle reacted extremely fiercely upon hearing this, saying she would not marry Zhangsun Chong no matter what.

But this matter was not up to her to decide.

Precisely because of this.

Changle was unhappy.

Just at this moment, Li Er raised his wine cup and stood up slowly.

The hall fell silent instantly.

The envoys of the various countries, the civil and military officials, and the imperial relatives all raised their wine cups and listened quietly.

"Today is a day of great joy for our Great Tang, and also a day for the whole country to celebrate."

"Qian'er, toast everyone here on my behalf."

Li Er looked at Li Chengqian beside him without changing his expression.

"I obey my father's order!"

Li Chengqian stood up and walked in front of everyone.

But as soon as he appeared, a trace of strangeness flashed in everyone's eyes.

There was no other reason.

It was just that Li Chengqian's image was truly somewhat unbearable.

Short and stout, with a fat build.

Not a trace of imperial spirit could be seen on his dark, flushed face.

"I hope everyone drinks to their heart's content."

Especially the luxurious crown prince's court dress draped over him, making him look so out of place.

Even Gar Tongtsen frowned slightly.

Truly strange!

Although the Great Tang Emperor was not some handsome, fair-skinned youth, he was, at any rate, an image of an emperor, exceptionally heroic.

The Great Tang Empress was even more of a heavenly beauty, stunning and moving.

How could this pair of dragons and phoenixes among people give birth to such an unbearable son?

He didn't look like a noble of royal blood, but rather like a farmer!

Li Er and Zhangsun Wugou didn't seem to care about this, their eyes full of encouragement and love.

They knew they owed this child too much.

No matter his appearance, temperament, or ability, it couldn't change the fact that Li Chengqian was their biological son.

Among the full court of nobles, only one person had a different expression.

Zhangsun Wuji!

At this time, he was looking at Li Chengqian with a smile.

In this world, he was the only one who knew the huge secret behind Li Chengqian.

And this secret would ensure their Zhangsun family would never decline!

"Ev... everyone, please drink this cup together!"

Holding the wine cup, Li Chengqian stood in front of the crowd, his eyes panicked, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead, looking very flustered.

The "A Dou" who couldn't be lifted up!

That should be Li Chengqian.

"Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

Although everyone was somewhat disappointed, they still gave Li Chengqian enough face.

"Hmph!"

"Compared to our Great Qin's Emperor, this Great Tang Crown Prince is simply like the difference between clouds and mud!"

Gar Tongtsen smiled contemptuously, the image of Qin Mu's imperial aura—swallowing ten thousand miles like a tiger—appearing in his mind, and he straightened his back unconsciously.

Pride!
