The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji naturally agreed with this matter, so Li Shimin immediately replied to Li Xiang, and this matter was handled like this. All matters were handed over to Li Xiang and Xiao Yu, and the court would also Send people over as soon as possible. After all, the local magistrates have almost been arrested. Now Li Xiang's men are acting on behalf of them.

These people should be able to do it in a short period of time, but if it takes a long time, they may be full of loopholes. Therefore, Li Xiang now needs to gather talents from three aspects, one is from the court, and the other is cultivated by himself. On the other hand, there are people from the Lanling Xiao family.

The young man standing in front of Li Xiang at this moment looked familiar to Li Xiang, but he promised that he had never seen him before.

This person is Xiao Shouguo, Xiao Shougui's cousin.

He is a few months younger than Xiao Shougui, but because he is not the eldest grandson and does not have a princess mother, he has been studying in his hometown of Lanling. However, according to Xiao Yu, this person's talents are no less than Xiao Shougui , any grandpa can guarantee it.

It is a pity that this grandfather cannot decide the world's major events. If he could decide the world's major events, then the person sent to the Western Regions might be Xiao Shouguo, and he might not be the eldest grandson.

The reason why Xiao Yu pushed his eldest grandson out was, on the one hand, because he was the eldest grandson and would support the family in the future. On the other hand, it was also because Xiao Shougui and Li Xiang were cousins, and they were related. A bond makes many things much more convenient.

Even if Xiao Shougui had done something wrong, for the sake of having a princess mother, Li Xiang couldn't cut too deep with the knife. After all, she was his biological aunt, and she would not look at the face of a monk or the face of a Buddha.

Fortunately, Xiao Shougui was talented and helped Li Xiang handle many things in the Western Regions. Xiao Yu was right to recommend him.

"You and your cousin look very much alike, but I don't know how similar they are in terms of their ability to do things. Do you know what errands I will entrust you with?"

Li Xiang picked up the teacup and took a sip, looking at the young man in front of him with interest. Although he was a member of a noble family, he seemed to have no bad habits and was much better than the children of the noble families in Chang'an City.

Although Xiao Yu was standing nearby, he didn't say a word at this moment. He knew that Li Xiang was taking the exam for his grandson at this moment. The eldest grandson had already passed the test. Now it was up to the second grandson. If he could pass the test, Tang Two brothers can stand up to the sky. Even if they fall down in the future, there will be someone who can support the door. Walking on two legs is better than one. If one side is lame, the other leg will not make him fall down. .

"I will do whatever your Highness says, but please allow me to start from the bottom."

Xiao Shouguo was studying at home, and then he received a six-hundred-mile urgent call from his grandfather. Although he said during the Chinese New Year that he would have to find an opportunity to become an official, although the imperial examination system is now implemented, a wealthy family can still Li Shimin, who holds a certain number of quotas, cannot block all routes. If all routes are blocked, the first people to oppose him are not the aristocratic families, but the meritorious families who followed him to conquer the world. .

Xiao Shouguo had been preparing for this. He originally thought he would start from some yamen in Chang'an City, or at the Xiao family's headquarters in Lanling, but he didn't expect to be taken directly to the land of Sichuan and Sichuan. This was something he never dreamed of. place.

Xiao Yu was temporarily deployed in Chang'an. When Li Shimin gave the imperial edict, Xiao Yu read it several times. Why did he get sent here, let alone his grandson who was studying in his hometown.

Although there was a lot of confusion in his heart, this was indeed Grandpa's handwriting. In addition, the person who came was also Grandpa's usual housekeeper, so Xiao Shouguo didn't waste any time and followed the person who came over quickly. It originally took a month to travel. He came here in half a month. He is considered a vigorous and resolute person. At least he can endure hardships on the road. If other children of the aristocratic family were beaten to death, they would not be able to reach Chengdu in half a month.

"Your idea is good, and I appreciate it, but you must have heard about the current situation. I have killed all kinds of officials and exiled them. There must be a group of people who can support you. How should I govern you?" Grandpa will teach you, and all you have to do is implement everything your grandpa taught you so that the people can truly taste the benefits, and then your assessment will be over."

This was the first time Xiao Shouguo heard Li Xiang's way of speaking. Everyone he met since he was a child spoke in a formal manner, including his own grandfather and the teacher he hired. Xiao Shouguo still needed a long time to understand. It was the first time that Li Xiang said it so clearly, so he also had a good impression of Li Xiang.

He had heard of Li Xiang's reputation before, but the unique pride of young people made him think that Li Xiang was just like that. If he had the resources that Li Xiang could mobilize, he might do better than this guy, but After listening to Li Xiang's words, his inherent thoughts began to loosen.

"It all depends on Your Highness. I'm willing to give it a try. If it doesn't work..."

"No, it's not as simple as admitting your mistake. You have tens of thousands of people under your command. If it doesn't work, this head will not be reserved for you just because of your last name."

Li Xiang also patted this guy on the shoulder when he was talking about this guy. If it had been someone else, he might have been scared at this time. After all, as a descendant of a noble family, there was no need for him to do such a dangerous job, even if he went home and stayed there for a long time. After two years, can't we arrange other safety errands?

Xiao Yu showed no expression at all next to him. Like other big family patriarchs, he didn't care about someone's life or death. Even if it was his favorite grandson, he would have to kick him out and practice hard. If he didn't experience How can these things help the family head in the future?

Of course, it is also possible to become the head of the family, it all depends on how you do it, but under the current situation, the head of the Lanling Xiao family can only be Xiao Shougui.

Xiao Yu also told the following grandsons about this. As long as Li Xiang does not have any problems, no one can shake Xiao Shougui's position. No matter how outstanding you are, you must abide by it in the end. If you don't comply, you won't even have a chance to get out.

Xiao Yu still sees this very clearly. Although Li Xiang keeps emphasizing ability, blood relationship is sometimes very important, especially the relationship between the Lanling Xiao family and Li Xiang, Li Xiang still believes it more Xiao Shougui...
