Chapter 922 Acting takes a lot of brains

Mr. Cui spent a long time and finally made everyone present understand. To put it bluntly, the comprehensive national power of the Tang Dynasty is constantly rising. All countries want to send their princes to study. However, in order to take care of the lives of the princes, the Tang Dynasty gives them special An area was demarcated, and various countries were to build guild halls in Chang'an City. After the princes from each country went there, in addition to studying, they had to properly manage the guild halls of each country.

The construction of Nanzhao Kingdom has not started yet, so your prince cannot go.

"Master Cui, can you please be accommodating? This is my brother-in-law. He is nothing more than a human being outside of legal principles. What's more, the eldest prince highly respects my Tang Dynasty culture."

Li Xiang also frowned when he heard this. Maybe he had changed like this after he left, but in front of the King of Nanzhao, he had to act when he should act. Li Xiang himself did not expect that when he returned home from the wedding, he actually He is cooperating with others to deceive his father-in-law.

King Nanzhao's face was like a layer of frost. After hearing Li Xiang's words, the old guy looked at him very eagerly. Now your highness has begun to plead for mercy. Are you officials? Are you still going to stop me? But he had heard that the relationship between emperor and ministers in the Tang Dynasty was different from that in Nanzhao.

Take the current emperor Li Shimin as an example. It is said that he was often made to dance by a minister, and even felt very disgusted with that minister. But in the end, Li Shimin still praised the minister to everyone, and said that the emperor should be punished if he made a mistake. Not only King Nanzhao felt strange that he allowed others to advise him, but also the kings of other countries around him felt that Li Shimin was crazy.

Now that you have become the emperor, you have to do everything according to your own wishes. If you let others control everything, then what is the point of being an emperor? Now looking at Li Xiang’s attitude, is it possible that he has the same attitude as Li Shimin?

The King of Nanzhao thought this way, but several nearby ministers did not think so. They felt that the reason why the Tang Dynasty was strong was because the emperor could let others persuade him. If he was placed in their place, if they were to treat him like this The king's words will probably be remembered immediately. This is one of the reasons why the surrounding small countries cannot compare with the Tang Dynasty.

"Your Highness, this is not a question of whether I am accommodating or not, but an imperial edict issued by the Emperor. You were already in Sichuan when the edict was issued, so you don't know much about the situation in Chang'an City. Even if I am accommodating now, If the eldest prince follows him, he will have nowhere to settle when he reaches Chang'an City."

Mr. Cui had a sincere expression on his face. Even people who didn't know him felt that this guy could never lie when they saw his expression.

Of course, they also had real evidence, so they sent someone to get the attachment while talking.

After seeing this scene, King Nanzhao did not doubt what Master Cui said. It was just a place to live. Doesn't the huge Chang'an City have a place for his son to live? Even if the canonization of Chang'an City has not come down, as long as his son lives in Chang'an City, it is equivalent to having an extra talisman.

King Nanzhao expressed his thoughts, and Li Xiang also agreed immediately. At this moment, Li Xiang also saw that Mr. Cui must have understood his expression just now, otherwise he would not have refused so fiercely. , when his men came back, Lord Cui began to explain everything about Chang'an City to King Nanzhao word by word.

Master Cui's voice was not low. In addition to explaining to the King of Nanzhao, he also explained to other scholars of Nanzhao that Chang'an City has implemented a new policy. Princes from various countries must stay in special areas. If they want to go to other areas , must be approved by the Chang'an court.

Of course, this must be implemented, mainly because there are too many foreigners in Chang'an City. If they are not managed, it may affect the lives of the people in Chang'an City. According to Mr. Cui, even if you are all Princes from various countries, but you are not as valued as the people of Chang'an City.

Li Xiang carefully observed the people around him. They all stretched their necks and listened. It was obvious that these people also wanted to send their children to Chang'an City, but their status was slightly lower, so the first batch of people who went there did not have their children. Now I heard that even the eldest prince couldn't do it, and everyone felt secretly happy.

If this matter had happened in the past, no matter how strict the regulations of the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette were, as long as Li Xiang sent someone to deliver a post, the opening that should be opened would still be opened. This opening cannot be opened by others, such as a city wall Generally strong, but if you face Li Xiang, are you crazy if you don't open your mouth? Don't you know who this person is in front of you?

But now it is clear that Li Xiang wants to use these rules and regulations to prevent Nanzhao from attacking the king. Mr. Cui has the patience to explain this to everyone and gives some examples. Including the children of the four chieftains, they all must live in their own house. In the guild hall, there are also court officials who strictly control the princes to prevent them from having fun in Chang'an City and forgetting the reason why their hometown sent them there.

Mr. Cui worked hard to make everyone believe that we are in charge of your prince not for other reasons. The most important reason is that your place is too backward. Your prince is learning the latest management methods in Chang'an City. We are here for you as a whole. The state is responsible for not allowing them to go to any other places except their own guild halls and schools.

Li Xiang also frowned when he heard this. Master Cui saw all this. Of course he knew why Li Xiang frowned. If you really train these princes into high-end managers, then We will be in trouble when we want to conquer all directions in the future.

In fact, it is far from the same thing. Talking about people and telling ghosts is basically what officials of the Ministry of Rites should do. How could they train all these princes? They said this when facing their parents. After arriving in Chang'an City, there were various loopholes in management.

These princes had never seen the fun things in Chang'an City, and the people following them did not dare to take care of them. Therefore, after arriving in Chang'an City, these princes let loose wild horses and had various entertainments. The place is their second home, and the money provided by their families is enough. These people can play as they want, and they can't cultivate anything except wine and rice.
