Chapter 918 Meat rotten in the pot

On the eve of the wedding, the old lady had a nightmare.

Li Xiang in the dream came back with his army. Naturally, Nanzhao's army was no match for the Tang army. So after a little resistance, Nanzhao's army almost collapsed. A large number of troops fled in all directions. They were Waiting to be taken prisoner in the palace, Li Xiang showed his true face at that time. He was not polite at all, and all he showed was bloody fighting.

Speaking of this matter, King Nanzhao also frowned. Judging from what happened in the past few days, the entire country was too seriously affected by the Tang Dynasty. He brought Li Xiang in, and he never thought of Li Xiang's influence. With so much power, whether it was matters involving the Duan family or other officials, they always felt that Li Xiang had taken too much advantage.

According to King Nanzhao's idea, he just wanted to use Li Xiang to buy a protective umbrella for his son, but he did not expect that this protective umbrella would extend many tentacles, and these tentacles did not develop according to his ideas, and had already been touched during the development process. His reverse scale…

Take the people of the Duan family for example. They were originally begging for mercy in front of him, thinking only of what the king would give them. But now because of a rumor, the status of the Duan family immediately rose. Duan Hai's voice in the past two days He is much older than before, and he said he would support him before, but why doesn't Duan Hai have such courage?

Do you think you are inferior to Li Xiang? If you want to analyze it from the perspective of overall strength, you will definitely not be able to keep up with Li Xiang, but if you want to analyze it from the perspective of Nanzhao, you will definitely surpass Li Xiang by a lot. However, in the eyes of Duan Hai and some big nobles, you Compared with Li Xiang, he is far behind, especially if his son goes to Chang'an City to receive the canonization, it means that he recognizes the rights of Chang'an City.

"You yourself realize that something is wrong, right? If you really realize it, then you cannot let your son go to Chang'an City. The marriage has become a fait accompli. We cannot go back on this matter, but let The canonization of Chang'an City cannot be carried out. I will convince your second brother to accept all this, but you cannot let your son go to Chang'an. You two brothers should each give in. This is the future of our Nanzhao."

The Queen Mother was thinking more, and she quickly figured it all out. As long as the two brothers could each give in, the whole country would be safe. But if the eldest prince followed Li Xiang to Chang'an, then Everything is a foregone conclusion. If the imperial decree of Chang'an City is betrayed here, then the Tang army may come over at any time. Can Nanzhao be able to stop it with its current strength?

King Nanzhao was indeed touched by what his mother said, but he soon woke up.

"My mother is really amazing. After all these years, she is still so good at talking. She almost let me join this circle. If we maintain the status quo, with the strength of you and your brother, you will soon be able to control the entire country. , I don’t even have the power to fight back, won’t you decide everything by then?”

The king of Nanzhao was sweating all over. When the people nearby saw the mother and son talking, no one wanted to listen to the beheading, so they all left.

After the Queen Mother heard this, her eyes were full of disbelief. She didn't expect that her son could be so capable. This was her own son, and he would never go against her, so the Queen Mother felt that she had absolute power. His right can decide all this, but he didn't expect that everything would change after his eldest grandson grew up.

"If you think about it carefully, even if I were to make the decision, according to the Han people, the meat would still be rotten in the pot. Our family still has the right to rule Nanzhao, but now you have put the power of the Tang Dynasty We have been brought in. Our rule over the entire Nanzhao has been mixed with magazines. Now it has just begun. You are already a little unable to control it. As time goes by, how many of these people below do you think will surround them? By your side?"

The Queen Mother was foresight and had already sensed the danger, but she had to get her son to cooperate. But the problem was that this son had already been filled with palace battles, could he listen to her words?

"Why did my mother come to persuade me? Why didn't she persuade my second brother? How did my mother lie to me when he wanted to take over the military power? How could he have so much military power without his mother's help? No How could he have so much financial resources with the help of two uncles? Was all this caused by me? "

King Nanzhao said very aggrievedly that a country should be in order, but because of the favor of this woman in front of him, King Zhennan had thoughts that he shouldn't have, so everything happened now, and when the real crisis appeared At that time, this woman let herself swallow a bitter pill again. If she decided to cut off her connection with the Tang Dynasty immediately, she would just wait and see her second brother ascend to this position.

"presumptuous……"

When the Queen Mother said this, she may have been too excited, so she spoke a little loudly. The ministers who were drinking below also heard it. However, these people were all human beings, so they all treated it as if they had nothing to do with it. Hearing this, he picked up his own wine glass and clinked it with everyone. People who originally listened with their ears upright did not dare to listen here. If you hear the secrets of the royal family, no matter what position you are in , I’m afraid they will all be liquidated.

"Mom, there is no need to say so much. Saying too much will still hurt the relationship between mother and son. And you think Datang is so powerful. Even if I want to stop now, do you think your grandson-in-law will stop? Since he He is such an ambitious person, I would rather give him everything in Nanzhao than my second brother, he will give me a way out, but my brother will not."

After King Nanzhao said these words, he immediately left his place. The banquet in the palace was still going on, but the king was missing. The other people continued to drink, and they also continued to act. If he left just like that, If so, the people outside don’t know what they will say.

Seeing her eldest son leaving, the Queen Mother didn't know what to say. Perhaps it was just like what her eldest son said. She was the one who caused all this, not the two sons. She was the one who allowed her younger son to be born. Thoughts I shouldn’t have…
