The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

In fact, it is normal for Changsun Pingting to have such thoughts. Everyone only trusts the people around them, but Li Xiang has no way to explain that his people are from the system, so he can only watch it slowly.

Li Xiang couldn't stay here in broad daylight. He originally wanted to inspect his farm outside Chang'an City, but he didn't expect that the imperial edict from the palace came down, asking Li Xiang to go to Qinzheng Hall immediately.

According to Li Shimin's will, Li Xiang did not go to court early within half a month after returning to Beijing, which was regarded as a vacation for Li Xiang. But today, this matter could not be handled without Li Xiang, and a letter came back from Gaochang.

Xue Yantuo Khan still ran away.

According to what was described in the letter, it was already the first time we got the news, but unfortunately these people in Gaochang had too many things to do, and there were traitors among them, so they let Khan Xue Yantuo run away.

Su Dingfang's letter to Li Xiang detailed this battle. There should have been no problems, but because of the traitors in Gaochang, Khan Xue Yantuo left most of his army and ran away with only a dozen followers. .

"Look at what your people are doing. When I asked you, you said there would be no problem in leaving it to him. What is Su Dingfang doing now? He can't even catch a toothless Li Jue. Xue Yantuo can't Khan can't even be regarded as Li Jue. After arriving in Gaochang, he can only be regarded as a lost dog. Now he has gone to the Western Regions, which has left us with huge hidden dangers."

Li Shimin didn't speak very nicely. Of course, this was normal. Su Dingfang didn't defend himself. The memorial to plead guilty had already been sent. I thought it was foolproof, but in the end he let him run away. Su Dingfang didn't have any good explanation. Yes, this itself is his work error.

But if we analyze it carefully, our army is fighting in another country, and the people in Gaochang may not be able to fully cooperate with us. The traitor has been caught this time, and it is said that it can be regarded as an explanation to the court. We will not fight in other countries. If this still succeeds when meeting a traitor, it will be really bad luck.

But Su Dingfang became a disciple of Li Xiang, and he was Li Xiang's person. Li Shimin had always wanted to cause trouble for Li Xiang, but he never had such a chance. Now, Su Dingfang has indeed found an opportunity.

Several other generals wanted to stand up and speak, but in the end they hesitated. Now that Li Shimin was furious, and coupled with the trend of the situation during this period, it would not be a good thing to stand up at will. Li Shimin was not easy to talk to. With.

Everyone is watching Li Xiang's reaction. It is completely justified that Li Shimin is so high-profile this time. We were fully prepared, but in the end, people ran away. Let's see how you, the commander-in-chief, should explain.

Li Shimin has already thrown the memorial in front of Li Xiang, which means clearly that you have to talk about this.

"To report to the Emperor, I think that although this matter is wrong, we can make it right."

When Li Xiang said this, everyone present changed their minds. You have already admitted that you were wrong. Then Su Dingfang will definitely be punished. You must know that Su Dingfang was a hero in two wars. If he is not guaranteed in the end, then This punishment will not be light.

"Haha, you will make a mistake if you make a mistake?"

Li Shimin was amused by Li Xiang's words. In fact, what Li Shimin wanted was for Li Xiang to admit his mistake. As long as Li Xiang admitted his mistake, then Li Xiang's strength in the military could be reduced. Su Dingfang was Li Xiang's general, and given time, he would be the same in the future. As a general marshal who can act alone, now that Li Xiang has admitted his mistake, Su Dingfang's future will be difficult, but he didn't expect that Li Xiang would make a mistake as soon as he said he was right.

If it were another emperor, he would definitely not continue talking about this topic. Instead, he would first catch the linguistic flaw in Li Xiang's words, and then punish Su Dingfang. Now that Li Xiang had made a mistake, Li Shimin came immediately. Interested, Tang Taizong, a talented and strategist, only wanted to expand his own strength, so he felt that Li Xiang must have something to say.

"Your Majesty, I think this matter is our fault and Gaochang's fault as well. We must ask them to give us an explanation. Originally, Mr. Zhao had already discussed with the King of Gaochang that we could station troops in the territory of Gaochang. Now in order to capture King Xue Yantuo, who I have fled, we can not only station troops in Gaochang Kingdom, but our troops can even cross Gaochang Kingdom and enter the Western Regions..."

When Li Xiang finished speaking, the people present finally understood what it meant to make a mistake. If Li Xiang's plan could be realized, then Su Dingfang would not only be innocent, but could also be said to have merit.

"Do you think Gaochang is too simple, and at the same time, you think the countries in the Western Region are too simple? Although you have reached a so-called agreement, I think it was Gaochang who agreed under desperate circumstances. As long as they can Come to your senses, our troops are in danger there."

Anyone familiar with Li Shimin knows that if he was not interested in this matter, he would never raise questions. Now that he has raised questions, it means that he also wants to know the feasibility of this matter. If it can really be done, If so, Li Shimin would definitely agree to it for the sake of his own reputation.

The reason why Li Xiang said this was because he caught Li Shimin's idea. From the day he became emperor, Li Shimin wanted to be a different emperor, so he broke the rules in many things. The emperors of the Han Dynasty ruled the Western Regions , the emperors of the Sui Dynasty also ruled, and now in the Tang Dynasty, there is no reason to be weaker than them.

However, in the past, the Tang Dynasty was dealing with various internal and external conflicts, and was simply unable to regain control of the Western Regions. Now it can be said that it has seized an opportunity. Our two great victories in Goguryeo and Xue Yantuo, each of the Western Regions The country is very aware that if we take this opportunity to make some demands, they should not dare to disobey.

But all this is our speculation and cannot be put into practice. Now that Li Xiang is willing to take on this responsibility, Li Shimin is willing to let him try. Anyway, there is nothing wrong with leaving this hard work to Li Xiang. He will definitely be able to do it. Give you a satisfactory answer.

"The emperor is right, but as long as we calculate it properly, our plan should be able to be implemented. Now we should stabilize Gaochang first and send our intelligence personnel to conduct a comprehensive investigation of Gaochang..."

Because Khan Xue Yantuo escaped, Li Xiang could only start the Gaochang plan in advance...
