The most powerful emperor grandson of the Tang Dynasty

Seeing Li Xiang finish all this in an orderly manner, the people of the Nanzhao Wang family breathed a sigh of relief. If Li Xiang just bowed slightly and simplified all the etiquette, then they couldn't say anything. After all, they He is the noble grandson of the Tang Dynasty Emperor. We are just a declining royal family.

Your princess is indeed married to the grandson of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but there are many wives in her family. Even if your princess is ranked according to rank, she is still at the second lowest level. She does not have much status in the Tiance Admiral's Mansion. Li If you are able to do what you do today, this is actually a great deal of face for you.

The surrounding officials also saw this scene in their eyes. Although they had already started to reduce the influence of the Nanzhao royal family in accordance with the regulations, but then again, seeing the situation today, those who should be given some face should be given some face. , otherwise His Highness will blame you, and we people will not be able to eat and walk around.

"Are you Lu Yuansheng, the new Protector of Nanzhao?"

Just when one of the leading officials was thinking about the problem, Li Xiang suddenly called his name. This guy hurriedly came out. I didn't expect that His Highness could remember his name. He had only been in this position for three months. That’s all.

"I'll be the one to answer your Highness's question."

Lu Yuansheng was transferred from Luoyang, the eastern capital. He was originally a local official. Because he managed an extremely backward county well, Li Xiang found out about it and promoted this guy unusually, from the seventh-grade county magistrate to the third-grade governor. , this can be said to be a lifelong route for many people, but this guy completed it in a few days.

When he passed by Chang'an City after taking office, he handed a sign to General Tiance's Mansion, hoping to go in and listen to Li Xiang's teachings in person, but unfortunately Li Xiang did not summon this guy, which made him feel unsure. It was obviously His Highness who promoted me, and I could be regarded as His Highness's side, but why didn't he even see him face to face?

I didn’t understand what was going on at the time. It was only after I took office that I realized what was going on. His Highness mobilized himself here not to join His Highness’s camp, but to govern this place as the territory of the Tang Dynasty. .

Everyone knows that the people in Nanzhao are considered good in the newly occupied land, but after all, there is still a gap between our territory and the Tang Dynasty. Moving people like you here will not make Nanzhao's economy fall behind. If you go, you have to make the people here turn to the Tang Dynasty. It can be said to be quite difficult. Otherwise, how could you be promoted to three levels in a row?
"You have done a good job. Although we did not meet in Chang'an City last time, I have a clear view of things here. Just continue to implement your strategy. If you have any questions, you can write to me, but Spend more time solving problems yourself and don’t blame them on others.”

After understanding Li Xiang's words, Lu Yuansheng understood what was going on. Saying this in front of the Nanzhao royal family means that what we did before was not wrong and we will continue to do so in the future. Reduce your influence, which makes the faces of the Nanzhao royal family look bitter.

When they saw that Li Xiang had already paid homage to the Queen Mother, they felt that they had stood up. Even if the local officials of the Tang Dynasty wanted to do something, they could not force them too hard, but when Li Xiang boasted about this local official , these people fell from the sky in an instant. When Li Xiang saw the local officials just now, he immediately understood what King Nanzhao was thinking. Promoting a unified system was definitely the court's basic national policy. No matter who he was or what happened, it could not affect the basic policy. In carrying out national policies, paying homage to your Queen Mother is a sign of respect for you, but it will never allow you to manipulate local officials.

So when Li Xiang turned around, everyone praised the local officials of the Tang Dynasty. These people's backs straightened up instantly. King Nanzhao's eyes were also a little dodgey. It seemed that his calculations were really wrong today. Think about it, this son-in-law is He is a dragon among men, how could he not see clearly some things? From now on, I will rarely do this kind of thing again. If someone sees it on the spot, it will not be offended.

Li Xiang did not study these little actions of King Nanzhao. After all, he used to be the king here, and now he has become a prince. Although his rights are not much less, his status is completely different, and waiting After he passes away, I am afraid that some things will be different in the future, and his descendants may be subject to greater restrictions, but this cannot be changed. Who made you defeated in the first place?

Thinking about some of the things that happened in the past, King Nanzhao really regretted it. If he could have listened to his mother earlier and ended the fight with his second brother, even if he gave up the throne to his second brother, then the power would still be in our hands. In his hands, it is no longer the same as now. A mere local official of the Tang Dynasty can make himself look good. What else can he do to live this life?
"Father-in-law, there is no need to let them arrange it. I will not stay here today. I will leave here soon. I have some things I want to discuss with my father-in-law. Is there any quiet place nearby?"

The Nanzhao palace was already ready. Hearing that Li Xiang was not staying here, the Nanzhao king stopped forcing him. Based on what Li Xiang had done just now, he was not going to invite Li Xiang to dinner. Originally, He wanted Li Xiang to strengthen his reputation, but who knew that Li Xiang saw his little thoughts and crushed him mercilessly.

"There is a separate courtyard not far away. How about going there?"

The King of Nanzhao didn't know what Li Xiang wanted to say, and he was thinking in his heart. Let's tell your superiors that we have something to discuss. In addition, the company is unstable recently, so the people below may not be here all afternoon. An Ning, this is what the current King of Nanzhao is like.

After arriving at this villa, Li Xiang asked the others to go out. King Nanzhao also raised his heart in his throat. He didn't understand what Li Xiang was going to say. When he was outside just now, he was very polite. But when there are only two people, King Nanzhao has a proper superior-subordinate relationship.

"The Nanzhao army performed well on the battlefield. I have written to you before, but the new Nanzhao army has not been formed. What is the reason for this?"

Li Xiang was held accountable as soon as he came up. Face matters belong to face matters, and practical matters belong to practical matters. We must make clear decisions. (End of chapter)
