Chapter 1523 Not many meetings left

After settling the matter with the Cui family, Li Xiang also had a good drink with Third Master Cui, because Li Xiang knew very well that after the drink, he might say goodbye to Third Master Cui.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Mr. Cui's physical condition is failing and it is impossible for him to persist until Li Xiang comes back next time. The doctors have already concluded that it will only take half a year at most, and there is no terminal illness. It's just that the lamp has run out of fuel.

Li Xiang understands what's going on? The whole family is going downhill. If only one old man can pull him up, it is simply impossible. In the end, he will not be able to save the family, and at the same time, he will use up all the energy of the old man, just like Cui now. Just like Mr. San, no matter how awesome the drugs he takes, there is nothing he can do to save his life in the end.

"Your Highness resigns to the Western Region and take care."

When Li Xiang was about to get on the carriage, Mr. Cui's eyes were filled with tears. Speaking of which, the two of them had been cooperating for many years. Li Xiang was not so strong at the time. If it weren't for Mr. Cui's great help, Li Xiang would not have been able to do so. There is no way to carve out a bloody path among the five surnames and seven hopes. Now that Li Xiang has taken charge of the world, it will definitely give a path to the descendants of Cui Sanye. This can be regarded as mutual perfection between the two parties, and no one can survive without it.

"Third Master, take care, too. After I come back from the Western Regions, I will have a drink with Third Master."

Li Xiang's voice was also a little choked. Although the two were collaborators, there was still a vague feeling of a teacher to Mr. Cui. After all, Mr. Cui also taught Li Xiang a lot of things. If it were true, Speaking of which, it is not an exaggeration to call Li Xiang a teacher, but people in the royal family cannot casually recognize him as a teacher, not to mention that Li Xiang is the third person, the grandson of the emperor.

Watching Li Xiang's carriage go away, Mr. Cui also made a decision in his heart. If he didn't do this, I'm afraid the whole family would be weakened even more. Therefore, Mr. Cui must do this. In this way, some of the essence can be preserved and the entire family will not collapse.

"Pass my words and let those strong men take action. No matter who is involved, as long as they are on the list, whoever dares to stop them will be killed. The remaining last row will be handed over to the army in the south of the city and let them take it to the southeastern peninsula. , no one can ask about their life or death within five years. If they come back alive, they will still be the children of my Cui family, and they will be given the shares that should be given. If they cannot come back alive, then their own lives will be blamed. Not hard enough.”

When Mr. Cui finished saying these words, he immediately started coughing. His body was already bad to a certain extent, and coupled with his excitement, Mr. Cui really couldn't suppress the feeling of coughing.

After tonight's conversation, the entire Cui family has felt that if we don't separate those who are making trouble, then we will have to sink with them. It is difficult to survive this change. Without the five The other families named Qiwang are sinking. This is an opportunity for us.

But if these people who were clamoring for the revitalization of the Cui family died, wouldn't it be an injustice?

You can revitalize your family, but it must be within the framework of the emperor. If you want to be like before and have to negotiate with the royal family at every turn, this is absolutely impossible. No one will allow this. things.

The Cui family has indeed had a glorious history, but it has been knocked down by 40% by Li Xiang. Even the remaining 60% is partly under the supervision of the Imperial City Si Yamen. If If you don't listen to the emperor's orders, the Cui family may be destroyed at any time. Even if some people escape to the old forest or overseas, what will happen? According to the current attack speed of the Tang Dynasty army, sooner or later they will capture you all. At that time, there will really be no way out.

Therefore, before reaching a desperate situation, Mr. Cui must dig out the cancer for the entire Cui family. Whether it is his own grandson or someone who has made many contributions in the past, as long as you are on the road to revitalizing the Cui family, you will get better and better. If you are far away, then you are no longer a family member to us.

The man in black wrote down what Cui Sanye said word for word, and then sent the news to the palace before dawn. The reason why Li Shimin saved this face for Li Xiang was because he knew about the relationship between Li Xiang and Cui Sanye. relationship, if the entire Cui family is solved without saying hello, Li Xiang will definitely feel uncomfortable. It is better to sell it to Li Xiang to save face and let the Cui family do it themselves.

When he saw that some people were going to be sent to Indochina, Li Shimin felt that Li Xiang was not a qualified successor. When Li Xiang first rose to prominence, he was definitely ruthless, but now he is a bit softer. This is by no means a good phenomenon. I hope Li Xiang can get his blood back in the Western Regions.

As soon as it was time to go on an expedition, Li Xiang also assembled some troops in Chang'an City. In addition to what he himself requested, Li Shimin also arranged a lot for Li Xiang. These people were all noble sons of Chang'an City, and Some of the descendants of prefects in various places cannot stay at home all the time and must go to the battlefield.

Li Xiang understands what Li Shimin is thinking. This time, let’s look at the attitudes of each family. On the battlefield, swords are not sharp. Those who are called to participate are the heirs of each family. If you don’t go, you don’t want to follow me in the Tang Dynasty. If you are tied together, you won't have to worry about some things in the future. You won't have to hang around in Chang'an City. If you still want to eat and drink well, the Tang Dynasty court can't afford to support you.

But if he is really capable, Li Xiang will never let him be buried in the sand, and he will be able to find better generals for my Datang army in the future.

Li Shimin took members of the royal family ten miles out of the city in person and sent Li Xiang to Shiliting.

Except for his first expedition to Tuyuhun, Li Xiang had never enjoyed such treatment. What Li Shimin did was very simple, that is, let Li Xiang create ten years of peace in the Western Regions, and the Arab Empire would not be able to invade it for at least ten years. Only in this way can Datang be freed up to do other things on the border of the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, there will always be a tiger staying there in the west, which is not a good thing for everyone.

Although Li Shimin did not give Li Xiang any guarantee, he also knew that this battle in the Western Region was by no means a local war. After all, the total number of people participating in the war exceeded 200,000 troops. Could this be a small matter? (End of chapter)
