The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 420: Dealing with the Xiao Family

I always sleep soundly at night when I sleep in the East Palace, because there is no need to think about other issues. When Li Xiang wakes up, Miss Meng Ling has already prepared everything that should be prepared, so she only needs to half-close her eyes and let the surrounding people Just ask the maid to help.

Originally, Li Xiang was not used to the decadent life of this feudal society, but after being reborn for a long time, Li Xiang became more and more accustomed to it. At this moment, Li Xiang was just like a piece of wood, and he let the maids push him forward, confused. He put on clothes in a daze, washed his face in a daze, opened his mouth in a daze, and then Miss Meng Ling helped Li Xiang brush his teeth with her onion-like fingers.

There were no toothbrushes in this era, so brushing your teeth with other people's fingers was a scary thing in modern society. However, Miss Meng Ling's fingers were weak and boneless, thin and long, and Li Xiang got used to it after a few times.

Originally, Li Xiang was thinking about developing toothpaste, but now many businesses are in progress and have not yet reached their peak, so I will put this matter aside for the time being and just launch it slowly in the future. You cannot have all the cards in your hand. After being beaten out, there must be two left.

"Your Highness..."

When Li Xiang was halfway through his breakfast, Qian Ping had already come in from the door. It should be that the series of actions yesterday were in order.

It is impossible for Li Xiang to come to visit, and it is so easy to pass by, and the old guy Xiao Yu will not give Li Xiang face. After all, for Xiao Yu, supporting King Wu to come to the front is probably the most important thing in his life. .

If we don't show some strength, how could the other party change his most important decision? So Li Xiang took another approach. I'll make trouble for you from the side. When you can't bear it, you have to come over and talk to yourself.

What Qian Ping said was what Li Xiang thought. Today was not the day to go to court, so when the palace door opened, Xiao Yu came over in an eight-carriage sedan. After all, he was the former prime minister, so he entered the palace. There is no need for so many complicated regulations. I thought I was going to see the emperor, but who knew that I was here to visit His Highness the Grand Sun.

"Clean up and invite Prime Minister Xiao to come in."

Although Xiao Yu is no longer the prime minister, according to the rules of the Tang Dynasty, as long as you have been the prime minister for a year, it is not an exaggeration for others to call you this. After all, in this day and age, the prime minister is almost equivalent to the deputy emperor. , the power in the hands of the prime minister was still very great. It was not until the Qing Dynasty that all the powers in the hands of the prime minister were transferred to the emperor, and the power of the prime minister became dispensable.

"I came to visit early in the morning to disturb His Majesty the Grand Sun."

Although Xiao Yu didn't sleep all night, he was still in high spirits. Although he knew that Li Xiang was not easy to deal with, he was a junior after all. Xiao Yu felt that he could still control Li Xiang.

"What are you talking about, Old Prime Minister? It's already a glorious thing for Old Prime Minister to come to my place. Old Prime Minister, please take a seat."

Li Xiang kept saying three old words, and everyone who could hear them recognized them. That is, you are not young anymore. It is better to take care of yourself at home. If you want to come out to make trouble, then you have to look at it. It depends on your age. This is no longer your world back then.

Xiaoyu is a smart man, and of course he heard the connotation of Li Xiang's words, but Xiao Yu will not give in like this, and neither will the Lanling Xiao family.

Every major family will encounter one or two excellent opportunities in the process of growth. Whenever you encounter such an opportunity, of course you will also encounter certain troubles. If a certain amount of trouble can make you retreat, then Your family deserves to be buried in the long river of history.

"Today I came to His Highness for a trivial matter. In fact, I shouldn't have come here because of this matter, but it is related to a private matter of mine, so I want to ask Your Highness to show your favor."

When Xiao Yu spoke, he pointed at the door, and shopkeeper Liu came in from the outside. After seeing this scene, Li Xiang also understood what it meant. You are here to ask for help, but you are unwilling to open your mouth.

What kind of person is Xiao Yu? Li Xiang can see it clearly now. The representative of the old aristocracy and the remnants of the previous dynasty obviously have no rights now, but they still have to pretend to be noble at home. Now even though Li Xiang has grasped its seven inches, Xiao Yu didn't show it. Instead, he wanted to sell his old face. But your old face, let alone with Li Xiang, wouldn't be enough even in front of many new nobles outside, right?

Shopkeeper Liu said what he said, and Li Xiang sneered in his heart. Since you regard this as a business activity, then I will also regard this as a business activity. Let's just practice Tai Chi with each other.

Anyway, I am not in a hurry to spend money. Although the imperial court has announced that it will conquer Goguryeo, according to Li Xiang's investigation, it is not ready yet. It will take at least seven or eight days before the army will go out.

In these seven or eight days, we are not in a hurry anyway, but it is not necessarily the case with King Wu. He needs to spend a wave of money in these seven or eight days. The money may not be useful, but it must be used. Damn, this is also an unwritten rule within the military. You have to do things after receiving money. If you don't do things after receiving money, then these people will not be able to get to other ships in the future.

"I understand this. Go and find our big shopkeeper. I'll tell him face to face. The prime minister has already arrived at our place. If you don't lend money quickly, he, the big shopkeeper, is getting more and more interesting." ”

Li Xiang put on a very stern look and was about to scold the big shopkeeper under him. Qian Ping, who was beside him, also hurriedly conveyed the order, but Xiao Yu was not very happy in his heart. It was obviously a matter of one sentence. , you just need to tell your big shopkeeper, he will lend money immediately, but now you want to find the big shopkeeper, you are obviously trying to quarrel!

"His Highness has so many things to do every day. Now that the imperial court is about to go to Goguryeo again, why not just send someone to say something to him? Why bother going back and forth? This is a small matter for me. If it is not related to thousands of people in the Lanling Xiao family, In human life, I will not open my mouth at this time to cause trouble for His Highness."

Xiao Yu tentatively said something to see if Li Xiang really wanted to solve the problem for him. If he really wanted to solve the problem for him, he should recover Qian Ping immediately. Just say something and do the work. There is no need. After struggling for so long...
