Chapter 613 Tian Khan’s Joke

When Li Xiang spoke just now, many ministers in the court were embarrassed. In the past, the one they were most willing to brag about was Tian Khan, but now this fig leaf has been lifted. That thing you are bragging about is of no use at all. You You thought that the countries in the Western Region were sincerely surrendering, but little did you know that this was just a high hat they put on you.

Li Shimin also understood this. As an emperor with great talents and great strategies, he certainly knew that this slogan was of no use. However, the Tang Dynasty was relatively weak at that time. If you peeled off this layer of cloth, there would be many wars in the north. , just hang out with those people first.

Now that the national power of the Tang Dynasty is rising rapidly, and there are no enemies around, we must take this opportunity to clean up what needs to be dealt with, and the influence of the Tang Dynasty must be spread far away. Li Shimin once said to Li Xiang, since we I believe that the whole world is the land of the king, so wherever we see it, we must plant the flag of the Tang Dynasty.

"Even so, someone comes to deliver the message..."

In front of everyone in the court, Li Shimin immediately sent an order to Su Dingfang, asking him to stabilize the war situation as quickly as possible, and at the same time force Gaochang to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, and then he would defeat the Western Region Allied Forces. As for what happened after defeating the Western Region Allied Forces, Wait until Li Xiang arrives before making a decision.

Li Xiang originally thought that he could stay in Chang'an for a while, but it seemed impossible now. Li Shimin then found the officials of the Qintian Prison and asked them to find an auspicious day in the past few days, and then marry Li Xiang. .

The original date has been chosen, but due to the situation in the northwest, it can only be moved forward. Anyway, the royal family has already prepared for things, and there is no need for Li Xiang and others to arrange it.

However, Li You and Xiao Shougui were leaving Chang'an early. Although these two people had little impact on the battle situation, they still represented the imperial court, so Li Shimin ordered them to bring three thousand elite troops to support Su Dingfang.

Regarding Li Shimin's arrangement, Li Xiang originally wanted to say something. He must clarify the command authority of these three thousand people. If the command authority was not clear, there would probably be a quarrel after arriving in the northwest. These people just asked Li You to take them there and Not his men.

Of course, Li Xiang no longer needs to come forward. Someone will stand up and talk about this matter immediately. The younger generations of their family also want to go to the battlefield to gain credit. The commander of three thousand people is not a big one, but for the younger generations of their family, He said that this is also an experience of leading an army alone.

Li Xiang saw that Niu Jinda was eager to give it a try, and he agreed to this guy at first. He originally planned to take him with him during the Eastern Expedition to Fusang, but now that things have changed, he had to focus on the northwest side first, so Li Xiang gave the emperor I have requested an order, hoping that General Niu Jinda can lead the team.

Some other generals also wanted to let their juniors train, but now Li Xiang stepped forward, and they all backed away. It was not that they were unwilling to compete with Li Xiang, but that most of the forces in the military were now there. In Li Xiang's hands, if they offend Li Xiang because of this matter, it will be of no benefit to them. Will the younger generations of the family be able to go to the army for training in the future? I'm afraid your life or death has already been decided before you even enter.

Li Shimin didn't want to let Li Xiang pull the mountain, but now the small mountain has turned into a big mountain. What's more, Su Dingfang and Niu Jinda cooperated really well. They did a lot of things for Datang in the north. If they ask for an expedition now, that's totally unacceptable. It makes sense.

"I remember General Niu's achievements last time, and I will give them to you when he comes back from the northwest this time."

In order to suppress Li Xiang, the contributions of many generals were not counted. Niu Jinda didn't care about this anymore. He also saw clearly the situation in the court. Although Li Shimin was still in charge now, if there were a few more battles, it would be hard to say. , as long as Li Xiang remembers my contribution in his heart, it doesn't matter whether he is given a title or not.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I, Old Niu, will definitely help your Majesty conquer the Western Regions."

Niu Jinda's words were a bit similar to Cheng Yaojin's, but Cheng Yaojin knew that he could not lead the army. Because of Li Xiang, Cheng Yaojin could only live a leisurely life in Chang'an from now on. If Cheng Yaojin were to lead the army again If it were a soldier, then Li Shimin would probably not be able to sleep at night.

Although Cheng Yaojin is Li Shimin's favorite general, everyone will think about their own future. If this guy takes risks for the sake of the happiness of the next generation and joins forces with Li Xiang to create a Xuanwu Sect, Li Shimin will be waiting to cry. Bar.

After the end of the dynasty, Li You was the most depressed one. He originally thought that he would have half a month to say goodbye to his friendly friends. The time had already been arranged. In the next ten days or so, During the time, he would go to various houses for banquets.

It's okay now. Let them leave Chang'an tomorrow morning. How can this be done? But he didn't dare to talk to Li Shimin, so he could only look at Li Xiang fiercely. Now he didn't dare to do anything to Li Xiang. This was Chang'an City. If he did too much to Li Xiang, he would probably be killed. Some people beat him.

Originally, he thought about taking revenge on Li Xiang after arriving in the northwest, but considering that the northwest is all Li Xiang's people, if you become rich after arriving in the northwest, you don't know what the outcome will be for you, maybe in the northwest. They will kill you first. Killing someone in the Gobi Desert like that is really undetectable. Even though you are a prince, in Li Xiang's army, if he is really cruel, the prince will not be able to leave. come out.

This is what Li Xiang is most proud of. Although he has no intention of rebellion, he must have this strength. If there is something that cannot be solved, Li Xiang can immediately rise up. However, at this stage, it is not good for the entire Tang Dynasty. What Li Shimin did didn't reach that level, so Li Xiangcai didn't put it into practice.

Xiao Shougui didn't care about such things. He had already decided to go to the northwest. One day earlier and one day later didn't matter to him. It was just that he didn't have the chance to participate in Li Xiang's wedding, which was somewhat of a regret.

Just when he felt regretful, the imperial court promulgated Li Xiang's "Tell the World"...

Li Xiang deeply felt that we were in a difficult time now, so His Highness the Grand Sun's wedding was simplified and all the procedures could be reduced. Cheng Yaojin also agreed with this. The common people have never encountered such a thing, even if the sky falls. Come down, the royal family must be dignified when it comes to matters. His Royal Highness is really different from others...
