Chapter 1384 The emperor’s son doesn’t do business

Li Xiang saw that many of the things in the main hall square were alive. It seemed that a lot of effort was put into sending these things to Chang'an City. This guy didn't put his thoughts on the people. All of it was spent on how to coax the emperor, and it seemed that he was unwilling to give up.

Of course, this is also normal. After all, as the emperor's son, who wouldn't want that position? Although you have been sent to Annan Kingdom now, if you don't send people back often, you will soon be forgotten by the emperor. Although you are the emperor's biological son, children in the palace are born one after another. Is it possible? Do you still need a biological son?

Without you, the emperor's life will still be so carefree, but if you don't have the emperor's father, then let alone the subordinates around you, even those ordinary soldiers may not necessarily regard you as a person. It's the same thing, who made you fall out of favor?

"It seems that Uncle Jiu has really taken the trouble. When I went there last time, I didn't seem to have seen these things at all. It's possible that he was just thinking about fighting. Now that the war is no longer going on, these things are also coming out. After all, many things went to nowhere when we fired."

After Li Xiang finished speaking, Li Zhi's people next to him looked a little unhappy. They had already won the emperor's happiness just now, but Li Xiang's few words had brought out the original form of King Jin's rationality. We all used to be To open up territory for the Tang Dynasty.

But what did you do in the past? The imperial edict clearly stated that you should restore local production and let the local people surrender to the Tang Dynasty. However, after you passed, this work did not make any progress. Instead, the number of peasant uprisings spread three times a month. , if it is delayed for such a period of time, I am afraid there will be more such things. Even if you transport all the animals over there, will it be able to cover up the fact that you are incompetent?

After Li Shimin heard Li Xiang's words happily just now, he frowned. It was mainly because he had never seen these things before. Even the emperor of a country felt that they were very novel. Now after hearing this After Li Xiang's words, he realized that this youngest son really didn't do anything serious. After that, he only thought about how to please himself.

The reason why Li Shimin was more open-minded than other emperors was because he put the interests of the Tang Empire first, followed by his personal hobbies. It was not easy for an emperor to have such an idea. Many people say this is very simple, but actually it is easier said than done. Otherwise, how could there be so many foolish kings?

"Although these things are very good, I have to tell your prince that the local people's livelihood should be the first priority. You go down first. Before leaving, I will send someone to bring you a letter."

When Li Shimin returned to the hall, the smile on his face was no longer there. Now he understood what was going on. Everyone else was trying to do business, and you were the only one thinking about how to coax you. If the old father You are a child of ordinary people, so there is nothing wrong with what you are doing, but you are the prince of the Tang Dynasty, how can this be possible?

The people sent by Jin Wang Li Zhi were pale with fright. Just now, they were thinking that there might be some reward. After all, they had come all the way from the south. Even if they just said one or two words, it would be their own reward along the way. It was hard work, but after His Majesty the Grand Sun came, all the hard work was wiped out in a few words. How dare you think of any rewards now? As long as you don't cause trouble for yourself, it will be a real blessing.

"Tea."

Li Shimin had a great time playing outside just now, and now he felt thirsty. Of course, he couldn't just drink tea by himself. Li Xiang also stood under the sun for a long time.

After the two men finished the cup of tea, neither of them spoke first. Li Xiang knew that today must be about Jin Wang Li Zhi. If he continued to hang around in the south, it would go against Li Shimin's original idea, but Li Shimin would not be sure if he was given real power. Of course, the more important thing was that he was afraid of Li Xiang's suspicion.

But in the end, Li Shimin still couldn't rely on Li Xiang. After all, Li Xiang didn't ask for anything, and the matter in the Western Regions had been settled. The Yamen of the Ministry of Revenue had also returned all the money to the account. Li Shimin also knew about this matter in the morning. Now he has to speak first, even when facing his grandson, sometimes he has to have a good discussion.

"Your Ninth Uncle is really shameful. When you were in the fiefdom, you could just mess around. After all, it's not outside the country. Now that you've arrived in Annan, you still don't know how to do anything serious. I don't know what kind of trouble it will be in the future. Can you find something for him so that he can finish it seriously?"

Li Shimin blew the tea foam in the cup and pushed the ball directly to Li Xiang's feet. Now everyone in Chang'an said that Li Xiang had power, and Li Shimin also wanted to see what Li Xiang said.

"Uncle Jiu has been on the battlefield before. We have strong troops in the Annan area. Sun Er has already formulated various combat plans. If Uncle Jiu is willing, it is better to let him reorganize our troops around Annan and attack Vietnam. Launch an attack, and Sun'er believes that Uncle Jiu will succeed immediately."

Li Xiang is not a roundworm in Li Shimin's belly, but he knows what Li Shimin is thinking. Li Xiang's current position as heir cannot be shaken, but Li Shimin doesn't want to see his sons treated as waste, not to mention that Annan is so remote. Even if he wins, it will only be a small victory and will not shake Li Xiang's position. That's why he dares to say it now. If it were to be a major battlefield, I'm afraid Li Shimin wouldn't even mention it. Will mention it.

"Can he do it? Although he has been on the battlefield before, he has never led an army to fight in person. Although Vietnam is relatively weak, it is also a strong country in the region. If he cannot win, it will also be for our Tang Dynasty. It has quite an impact.”

What Li Shimin needs is Li Xiang's judgment. After all, he has never been to Vietnam and does not understand the situation there. Although Li Zhi has every guarantee in his heart, he absolutely cannot truly believe his son Li Shimin. He must have Only with Li Xiang's approval...(End of chapter)
