The most powerful emperor grandson of the Tang Dynasty

When Li Xiang chose this route back to Beijing, many people didn't understand the reason. They also thought that Li Xiang wanted to travel around.

But it’s okay for people to travel around. It’s been 4 years since the war in Tuyuhun started. In these 4 years, Li Xiang defeated countless countries. Shouldn’t people just have fun? ?
Although Li Xiang's sightseeing tour may cost money, which may also cause some hostile personnel to gossip, most people in the court are still sensible. Even if Li Xiang wants to have a good time in Jiangnan, They couldn't fault it either.

Li Shimin's men in black had a lot of informants in Jiangnan. When Li Xiang took a quick tour of some prosperous cities, Li Shimin knew that Li Xiang was definitely not visiting Jiangnan for fun.

As expected, it was similar to what Li Shimin thought. Two days later, Li Xiang boarded the ship again, with no intention of staying here for a long time.

Although Li Shimin has never been to Jiangnan, he also knows the prosperity of Jiangnan. Otherwise, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty would not have gone to Jiangdu again and again. In the end, he died in that place, which shows how good Jiangnan is.

After Li Xiang boarded the naval warship, he headed south. The next step was to land on the Lingnan Road of the imperial court, which is now Guangdong.

From that place, Li Xiang was ready to go all the way by carriage, from Guangdong to Guangxi, then from Guangxi to Nanzhao, and then conduct a large-scale inspection in Nanzhao. After that, he headed north directly back to Chang'an.

At this moment, Li Xiang's journey has reached Li Shimin's desk. Li Shimin also invited Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji. He doesn't know what this little brat is going to do. He just knocked down Fusang, and now the whole country is digesting it. Well, is he already preparing for the next war?

"In the past, I was afraid that my descendants would be ineffective and might not be able to defend the country in the future, but this boy is an exception. He has no time to idle at all. From the day he attacked Tuyuhun, it seemed that he stayed in Chang'an. There are so few of them, and now they have gone to Lingnan Road again.”

Li Shimin was complaining about this on the surface, but Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji both heard that this guy was clearly showing off.

The two of them and Li Shimin were both emperor and minister. Before Li Shimin became emperor, he would discuss most things with them. Although they could not be said to obey his words, the friendship between the three of them was also very good, even if they were After becoming emperors, these two people entered and exited the palace very casually.

"The Emperor should be happy that His Highness Taisun is fighting in all directions. Our society in the Tang Dynasty has undergone tremendous changes. The price of food has dropped by more than 7% compared to a few years ago, and it will definitely drop next year. Now the population is increasing. Very fast.”

As the prime minister of the empire, Fang Xuanling could be said to be well aware of the situation of the entire empire. The development of the Tang Empire was not slow in the past few years, but compared with the current speed, it was like a tortoise and a hare.

It’s just that it was the tortoise a few years ago and now it’s the hare.

"I have also been to Chang'an City for a few days. I found that it is indeed more prosperous than before. The land in Chang'an City is not enough. I heard that the number of houses in Chang'an City has increased several times."

Food prices fall and land prices rise. This is a sign of prosperity.

What Li Shimin likes most is when others praise him as a wise king. Now the whole society is in a prosperous development situation. How can this guy not be proud? "Congratulations, Your Majesty."

The two of them can only stand up and flatter each other at this moment. Although what Li Shimin said is true, there are some things that we have to bring up, otherwise, these issues will be covered up.

"What the emperor said is right. Now Chang'an City and the entire Tang Dynasty are developing very fast, but it has also brought many problems, that is, more and more foreigners are flowing into the Tang Dynasty. We must They must be strictly controlled.”

Changsun Wuji is in charge of some public security work in the society. It can be said that there are a lot of fights during this period, especially for the group of princes and nobles studying in Chang'an City. Although their country is gone, Li Xiang also explained earlier Yes, we must let these people live a good life to prevent them from causing trouble everywhere when they go back.

"It's time to set up a special yamen. You and the people from the Sixth Department should discuss it carefully and see if a group of people are sent from the criminal department to set up a special yamen to control these foreigners and stipulate where they can go. Go, you can't go anywhere, and you can't let him be the same as me, the people of the Tang Dynasty."

In the past, Li Shimin was called the Khan of Heaven, so he was very friendly to foreigners around him and did not impose any restrictions on them.

However, Li Xiang's series of actions made him understand that people who are not from my race must have different hearts. These people may surrender on the surface, but in fact they have not brought any contribution to the Tang Dynasty. Instead, they have created a lot of threats to the Tang Dynasty. , if there is any war between the two sides, these people will kill you with a knife.

After going through these things, Li Shimin also figured out that if you want to come to Datang to do business or study, you must obey the rules of Datang. Moreover, it is you who begged us, not us. Please.

"Your Majesty is wise."

This matter has been brought up several times, but the Lifanyuan has always blocked it. They believe that the Tang Dynasty is a celestial kingdom. How can they care about these things with people from these small countries? If it spreads, it will feel like we have lost our national integrity.

This is the old thinking of many people in the Tang Dynasty. They always feel that it is okay for us to suffer a little loss, as long as we can get a situation where all the nations come to congratulate us, then what does this little loss mean?

However, Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji were not like this. Under the influence of Li Xiang, the ministers in the imperial court became a bit stingy, and they were very concerned about interests. If there was no interest, just have something. It's a nice word to save face, so it's better not to do it at all. Our Datang is different from before, and we won't do this kind of thing to make a profit at a loss.

"The second thing is about the Chang'an City Market. The previous curfew policy is no longer applicable. Please ask the emperor to announce the abolition of the curfew policy."

Nowadays, during holidays and festivals, there are also merchants at night, but this is not a continuous move. Now many people are complaining about the previous policy, so Fang Xuanling also thought about asking Li Shimin to abolish it, so that the development of business can be further revitalized.
