Tang Dynasty: Consort Wu? Your Majesty, please address her as the Crown Prince's Consort.

Seeing that Li Shimin was about to burst into a tirade, Empress Zhangsun quickly calmed him down:

"Alright, Your Majesty! Let me speak instead!"

As she spoke, she turned to look at Li Chengqian, her expression showing a hint of helplessness.

This father and son really seem to have inherited each other's lecherous nature!

"Brilliant! Actually, as long as their families are willing, it wouldn't be a problem if you married all four of them. But there can only be one position for the Crown Prince's principal wife. Who do you plan to give that position to?"

Li Jing, Li Ji, and Hou Junji—each of them rendered outstanding service to the Tang Dynasty. While the Su family's martial prowess may not rival that of the Wang family of Taiyuan, one of the "Five Clans and Seven Noble Families," it was still a prestigious clan. How do you intend to treat everyone fairly?

Upon hearing his elderly mother's words, Li Chengqian couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Marrying all four is possible, but who gets the position of principal wife?

Meanwhile, Li Shimin had a different idea.

What the hell!

If Li Jing, Hou Junji, and Li Ji, that rebellious son, were to marry all their daughters, wouldn't they rebel?

These three are all very important figures in the Tang Dynasty military. If these three old guys side with this rebellious son, then not only will Qingque not dare to speak out, but even the emperor himself will not dare to raise his voice!

That unfilial son has no good intentions!

If Li Chengqian could hear Li Shimin's inner thoughts at this moment, he would definitely cry out that he was wronged.

He wanted to marry all four of them simply because he was lustful. Aren't they all beautiful, fair-skinned, and with long legs?

Having finally transmigrated to this era, and to make matters worse, he's a crown prince! What's wrong with marrying a few more? It's not like he can't handle it all!

"Your subject chooses Su Wan!"

These words stunned not only Empress Zhangsun, but also Emperor Taizong of Tang.

To be honest, although the Wu Palace Su family was a prestigious clan, they were still far inferior to Li Jing.

Li Chengqian then turned to the four people behind him and said:

"Are you willing to accept my decision? If not, I will not force you, and not a single word of today's conversation will be leaked!"

The women were taken aback by Li Chengqian's words.

Su Wan was at a loss for words upon hearing this.

"Your Highness... I'm afraid I can't do it!"

Seeing her bewildered expression, Li Chengqian couldn't help but smile.

"Su Wan was born into the martial arts Su family. Her father was a fifth-rank secretary, and her mother died early. Since she was ten years old, you have been in charge of all the affairs of the Su family. Over the years, the Su family has been well-organized and without any mistakes under your management."

"Li Ling'er is the only daughter of Duke Li Jing of Wei and Hong Fu Nu. She is completely clueless about needlework and embroidery. She has a cold exterior but a warm heart. She enjoys practicing swordsmanship and is a true disciple of Hong Fu Nu. However, she is completely clueless about administrative matters."

"Li Xinran, the eldest daughter of Duke Li Ji of Yingguo, is proficient in all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and also has some knowledge of swords, spears and clubs. She has a gentle personality, but is too sentimental. She often sees beggars on the street emptying their purses, and several times she has even been unable to pay for her own meals because of this."

"Hou Xiaoyun, the eldest daughter of Duke Hou Junji of Lu, has a carefree and lively personality. She is also fond of wielding swords and spears and is forgetful in her work."

As soon as Li Chengqian finished speaking, everyone present was stunned.

The four women looked at Li Chengqian with disbelief in their eyes.

Because they discovered that what His Highness the Crown Prince said was true.

But... how is that possible?

These things are known only to people in their household. Since it concerns a woman's reputation, which family doesn't keep their daughter's shortcomings well covered up?

Li Shimin was not at all surprised that his rebellious son could say such things.

He knew that this rebellious son also had an elite force of secret guards, and that force was by no means inferior to the Bad People.

Seeing the looks in their eyes, Li Chengqian couldn't help but smile and say:

"Putting aside family background, Su Wan is the most suitable candidate to become the Crown Princess. If you were to become members of the Eastern Palace, I would be your biggest support. Even if this old man wanted to harm you or your families, he would have to think twice!"

Seeing Li Chengqian's confident demeanor, the women were momentarily lost in thought as they looked at him.

Li Shimin, standing to the side, turned green with rage.

What does it mean that even an old man has to think twice?

I am the emperor, after all. You should give me some face!

You dare to step on my face to pick up girls? You're really something!

I should have put it on the wall back then!

Li Chengqian, however, paid no attention to his old man's expression.

Your son is getting married, what's wrong with you, as the father, swallowing a little pride? Don't you want to hold your grandson anymore?

He looked at the four women in front of him and then spoke:

"But don't worry, I won't treat you differently. Perhaps in the future my position will be inherited by the eldest son, but I won't mistreat my other children either."

So, what do you think? Do you have any objections?

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Ling'er waved her hand dismissively.

"I don't care. Anyway, I'm not good at these things. Let Sister Su do it!"

As for my dad, I've decided to marry you. Does he dare disagree? I'll have my mom beat him to a pulp!

puff~

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin, whose face had been ashen, immediately lost his composure.

"Hahahaha! You, Li Jing with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, I never expected you to be afraid of your wife! Hahahaha, you're killing me with laughter!"

However, before he could laugh for long, a delicate hand reached up to his waist and pinched the soft flesh there.

hiss~

A sharp pain shot through him, and Li Shimin gasped in shock.

Empress Zhangsun, standing to the side, snorted coldly and said:

"Hmph! What are you laughing at? We're talking serious business!"

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin immediately deflated.

Upon seeing this, everyone couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle.

She truly lives up to her title as Empress!

The other women also quickly expressed their opinions after hearing Li Ling'er's words.

Hou Xiaoyun: "I think Sister Su is great! I wouldn't object to her becoming the Crown Princess!"

Li Xinran: "Hmm! I have no objection either!"

Seeing that the women had reached a consensus, Li Chengqian couldn't help but smile slightly.

As the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, he naturally couldn't have only one woman.

However, he did not want to see his harem in chaos, and he was already quite satisfied with the current situation.

……

The crowd dispersed only after the sun went down and the palace gates were locked.

But tonight, there will probably be no peace in Chang'an!

The Eastern Palace!

"Meiniang, will you blame me? Actually, you've managed the Eastern Palace so well these past few days, I could easily make you the official wife!"

Li Chengqian looked at Wu Meiniang, who was leaning against him, and said softly. Upon hearing this, the latter gently shook her head.

"Your Highness, please don't say any more. It is already my blessing that Your Highness is willing to love and cherish me. As for the position of the principal wife, Your Highness himself is more attractive to me."

As she spoke, she slowly placed Li Chengqian's hand on her neck.

"Your Highness, please give me your orders!"
