The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 291 Lu Dongzan and Changsun Pinting

In fact, this business layout was not something Li Xiang suddenly thought of, but he discovered it when he was fighting against the Five Surnames and Qi Wang. It turned out that although the court wanted to do something with them, it found that it was impossible to do so because of the industries they were involved in. There are too many. If we attack them, we will most likely attack the entire Tang Dynasty's commercial market. In the end, even if we win, it will not be of much benefit to the court.

That's why Li Xiang came up with a bad idea, using grassland and salt to attract them, and let them focus their family wealth on these two industries. Then we can start. The war on salt is over, and the grassland is left. It will be easier to solve. Prime Minister Midu has become one of our own. Isn’t the next thing easy?

Of course, now is not a good time to make a move. Li Xiang has to wait until all their investments are completed before making a move. Moreover, the emperor will definitely take the lead in everything at that time, and Li Xiang only needs to watch from the side.

"You may have heard something, right?"

When the two of them drank a bottle of wine, Mr. Cui suddenly started talking.

"What is it?"

Li Xiang encounters so many things every day. If he pays attention to them all, he probably won't even have time to eat or sleep.

"It's about Lu Dongzan and your cousin."

When Mr. Cui said these words, Li Xiang immediately thought of the generous eldest grandson Pingting!

"What can happen to them?"

Li Xiang said with some surprise, Lu Dongzan was the Prime Minister of Tubo, and Changsun Pingting was the eldest daughter of the Changsun family. She did not hold any office in the court, and there should be no contact between the two.

"Lu Dongzan came to the Tang Dynasty to ask for marriage, but you screwed it up, so he settled for the next best thing and planned to ask for a marriage for himself. Basically everyone in Chang'an City knew that he planned to marry The eldest grandson Pingting.”

After Mr. Cui finished speaking, Li Xiang spat out the wine in his mouth in one gulp. This reaction was somewhat too big.

"He's delusional...he..."

After Li Xiang said this, he immediately realized his gaffe, and he was confused. She was obviously his cousin, and although she was a partner, she couldn't react so big, right? Even Li Xiang himself found it strange.

"It seems that we are well-matched. The eldest lady is even a little higher up. I am afraid that His Highness is worried about your business. If Miss Changsun really goes to Tubo, no one will probably watch your business."

When Mr. Cui saw Li Xiang's gaffe, he immediately thought of the cooperation between the two. For Datang Tiannong to be so famous now, Changsun Pingting can be said to have taken the greatest credit. If it had been for another In terms of people, let alone whether it can be carried forward, it is quite difficult to maintain the current market.

"That's right, and the age difference between the two of them is too far. He is already able to be my cousin's father, and suddenly he wants to marry someone as his wife. What is going on in his head? What if he really marries a Tubo man? If so, where can I find such a shopkeeper?"

When Li Xiang said this, he finally felt in his heart, did he like his eldest grandson Pingting?

There is nothing wrong with this. Although she is her cousin, in this day and age, any situation may happen. Yang Shufei used to be Li Yuanji's wife, but now she has become Li Shimin's wife, right?

As for the story of Wu Meiniang and Li Zhi, it is even more exciting...

What's more, the eldest grandson Pingting is in her early twenties, an age that is just about to blossom.

"How can we consider the issue of age in political marriages? The same is true among our major families. Lu Dongzan should have gone back, but after meeting his eldest grandson Pingting, he insisted on staying in Chang'an. The Tubo Kingdom was already in a state of development. Here comes the credentials."

Li Xiang didn't care about these gossips. The first time he heard about these things was from Mr. Cui's mouth.

"Send him a letter of credence and tell him to go back quickly?"

Li Xiang thought it should be this, but the content of the credential surprised Li Xiang even more.

"Songtsen Gampo of Tubo personally wrote another letter, saying that if a royal daughter does not get married, then the customs of the Tang Dynasty should be respected, but the same cannot be said for the daughter of a bureaucrat? This letter of credence is for Lu Dongzan to ask for the marriage of his eldest grandson. Pingting, think about how highly this guy is valued in Tubo. The king of a country actually wrote a letter of credence for his marriage. This is too childish..."

What did Mr. Cui say next? Li Xiang didn't hear clearly in his head, but he heard the previous words clearly. According to his understanding of Li Shimin, it would be okay even if Changsun Wuji objects to this matter. After all, to Li Shimin, Changsun Pingting is better than Changsun Pingting. He could not even sacrifice a princess, let alone his eldest grandson Pingting.

"Your Highness?"

Li Xiang was stunned here for a few minutes. Mr. Cui knocked on his wine glass. Only then did Li Xiang remember that the two of them were drinking. He quickly apologized and clinked the glasses with Mr. Cui.

"How likely do you think the emperor is to agree?"

Li Xiang knew what he was asking, but he still wanted to hear Third Master Cui's opinion. After all, Third Master Cui also had very strong judgment in the entire Tang Dynasty.

"It's time for you to find a female shopkeeper. If you can't find a suitable person, I can recommend one to you."

Cui Sanye did not directly speculate on the emperor. After all, it would not be a good thing to spread the news, but he gave Li Xiang an answer in another way. Li Xiang himself judged the same, but he just didn't believe it a little.

After finishing the meal patiently, he asked someone to send Mr. Cui back. At the same time, he told Zhou Huairen to let his men go over to negotiate with the Cui family. They could neither take advantage of others nor allow them to let others go. I have suffered a loss, and this can be regarded as the beginning of cooperation between the two parties. If this beginning does not go well, then the subsequent cooperation may have a shadow.

Let’s find out what Inspector Sun Wuji has to say...

"Go to Changsun Mansion."

After coming out of the heaven and earth, Li Xiang got on a four-carriage sedan. If it were to be his eight-carriage sedan, it would probably not be well publicized. Although the heaven and earth were his property, it was done secretly after all. The sale of doors.

"Master, the young one is too talkative. Master Changsun is drinking inside!"

In this case, Zhu Runjiu, as the shopkeeper of the commercial complex, has no right to speak if Li Xiang does not ask him. Only people like Qian Ping can say a few words to Li Xiang. Secondly, Zhou Huairen and Zhu Runjiu are in such a situation. Talking about the occasion is already a bit beyond the two above, but now that Li Xiang is leaving soon, it is understandable that the situation is urgent...
