The most powerful emperor grandson of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 320: Benefiting the Tang Dynasty for a Hundred Years
Qinzheng Hall.

"This little bastard, that doesn't give me any peace of mind at all. He was obviously asked to send off his bride. Look at what he has done. I see what he means. We will inevitably have to fight again. You guys The elders usually keep an eye on me, so I won't start a fight at every turn, and I don't know who to follow."

Although Li Shimin complained about Li Xiang, he was actually very happy in his heart. As a member of the royal family, he must always have an expansion mentality. If he only thinks about enjoying happiness every day, then the entire empire will not be able to think about peace in the future. You When you don't count others, others are definitely plotting against you. By the time you come to your senses, it's already too late. We might as well keep plotting against others. At least our home is safe.

Several ministers below curled their lips, is there any need to ask?It must be up to you. You have been in war since you started the army in Jinyang. It is only in the past few years that we have been peaceful. We only defeated Tuyuhun last year. There are not many other peaceful years, even in the Great Depression. During Tang Chengping's years, border conflicts continued.

In the eyes of these ministers, Li Shimin was a typical example of being a good boy. When faced with Li Chengqian and his brothers in the early years, Li Shimin always felt that these brothers were too indecisive and did not have any military ideas. Now there is a man like this. Your grandson, and you blame him for not being peaceful enough. I really don’t know what your descendants should do to satisfy you.

"I have neglected my duty, please be punished by the Emperor."

Changsun Wuji was the first to kneel down. His people had been setting up operations in Tubo for many years, but there was not much useful information sent back over the years. This news from Li Xiang was placed in front of Li Shimin, which could reveal his people. inability.

"Get up, get up. Today I want you to talk about this guy's strategy. Don't be busy reviewing it. I also know that it is very difficult to arrange detailed operations in other countries, not to mention that we have only been free for a few years. Guilty free.”

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Changsun Wuji breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Li Shimin would hold him accountable. Others around him also understood that there were not many businessmen in Tubo, let alone those who wanted to set up shop there. , in their opinion, if Changsun Wuji could accomplish this matter, he was already much better than them. If it were them who had done it, they would have been dumbfounded a long time ago.

"Wei Chen thinks that this matter is too aggressive. In addition, the Tang Dynasty's treasury is not rich. If we support these chieftains rashly, then the cost will be not small. In case they fail in the end and put these If this incident is revealed, the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo will definitely drop to a freezing point, and Tibet will most likely send troops to Tuyuhun."

Tang Jian, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, immediately stood up. He did not support anything related to the war, mainly because the Ministry of Revenue had no money. The war in Tuyuhun was another matter. That was because we received a large amount of war compensation, but Tubo could give Do you have some?

Regarding his answer, Li Shimin also had a look of helplessness. He had asked him to keep an eye on his money bag earlier. This guy was indeed very careful, and he had never been greedy for a penny. He was also loyal to the court, but every time the court When there is action, you wish you didn't spend a penny. How can there be such a thing in the world?

"I think this is a good thing. Although Tubo is relatively far away from us, since we occupied the land of Tuyuhun, we are actually not far away from Tubo. If we hurry up, we can reach their land in a day or two. Datang There is a powerful country around us, which in itself is a threat to us. If we can slowly weaken it without going through war, for me, the descendants of the Tang Dynasty, that will last for several generations..."

General Li Jing has a strategic vision. No matter which country is around, General Li Jing wants to weaken them. Now that the Tang Dynasty is on the rise, we are not afraid of a real fight, but after decades or hundreds of years, do you think those descendants will Same as you?If Datang becomes weak, these wolves will pounce immediately.

"The general is right, but how do we make it weaken? Now your strategy is right, but what is the specific method?" Tang Jian never talks empty words, and will ask questions in every sentence On point.

"General Li is right, Master Tang is also right. As for our strategy, His Highness Taisun is on the way."

Seeing that the two were about to get into a dispute, Fang Xuanling immediately came out to argue. Of course, Fang Xuanling's answer was correct. What are you two worrying about?Li Xiang sent this letter back. Did he really ask you what to do?He is asking you about a general direction, but he can decide on the detailed matters himself.

After everyone heard this, they hurriedly read the letter again. It was just as the Prime Minister said. What Li Xiang meant in his words was to ask Li Shimin whether this matter could be done?As long as Li Shimin sets a tone, the court does not need to worry about the next thing.

After Li Shimin listened to their analysis, he felt happy and a little disappointed at the same time. He was happy that this grandson made him worry-free. He could handle this matter with just an order from me. But he was disappointed that a child didn't need us. , it seems that he didn't give him any of his skills. How did this kid grow up?Just like a father who cannot show off his abilities in front of his son.

"My dear friends, Xuan Ling is right, but do you think we should support him?"

Li Shimin knew that now was not the time to think about those things. Li Xiang should also be waiting anxiously on the road. We have to give him a message quickly. Maybe this kid has made a series of plans and is waiting for someone from Chang'an City. What's the signal?

"Dry."

General Li Jing was very supportive, and soon a large number of military generals gathered behind him. Yuchi Jingde and Cheng Yaojin were the most enthusiastic. After careful consideration, Qin Qiong and others all stood behind General Li Jing.

Naturally, Fang Xuanling still did not express his position, but Lord Tang of the Ministry of Revenue had already expressed his objection.

After Changsun Wuji thought about it again and again, he finally came to the opposing side. Now it's almost a tie. It depends on Li Shimin's decision.

Li Shimin had a lot on his mind. After defeating Tubo, it would benefit the Tang Dynasty for hundreds of years. However, the Tang Dynasty has just been pacified, and the war with the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes has begun...
