The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 17 People who are not from my race must have different hearts.



Hearing Changsun Wuji ask himself, Li Xiang also put down the chopsticks in his hand. After Li Tai saw this scene, he was very angry in his heart. He also made such a big comment just now, you kid is not honest. Listening to this, my mouth is full of oil.

Li Xiang hasn't eaten since he came out in the morning, and he's hungry now. He doesn't have the time to listen to Li Tai's nonsense, not to mention that what you said is of no use at all.

According to the historical trend, Tuyuhun has never sincerely surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. Although he was granted a marriage, he still met with swords in the end. Instead of doing this, why not fight from the beginning?

What's more, in Li Xiang's heart, the only flaw in the Tang Dynasty is that there are many marriages. In the past, we couldn't control it. Now that we have traveled here, there will never be any talk of marriage in the Tang Dynasty in the future.

Of course, if the surrounding countries are willing to marry princesses, that is still allowed. But if our women go to your place, it is impossible...

When it comes to treating women, Li Xiang always eats and occupies more. Yours can come to us, but ours can't come to you. This is our philosophy. If you don't accept it, fight.

"Uncle, I understand one thing: if you are not of my race, your heart will be different."

Li Xiang wiped his mouth and spit out these words. The expression on Changsun Wuji's face also changed drastically. Although Li Xiang didn't say that much, these words also expressed his attitude.

In the early years of Zhenguan, the national power of the Tang Dynasty was relatively weak, especially when the Turkic army from the north was pressing down on the country. Even though Li Shimin was a heroic leader, he was unable to realize his ambitions, and had no choice but to suffer the shame of the Weishui River.

For other neighboring countries, the Tang Dynasty also adopted a tolerant policy and tried its best to stabilize them with the policy of peace and marriage. However, now that the Dong Turks have been destroyed and the Tang Dynasty's national power has soared, it is indeed a bit unrealistic to continue the peace and marriage.

"You kid are just talking nonsense. If you follow your words, wouldn't it mean that we are going to knock down all the surrounding areas? Don't forget that even though the country is big, if you are warlike, you will perish!"

Li Tai immediately caught Li Xiang's words.

"Second uncle, don't forget that although the world is safe, if you forget to fight, you will be in danger. So do Tuyuhun and the Tang Dynasty have the same heart? Although the prince has been sent to Chang'an to study in recent years, has the friction in the border areas been reduced? You If you count on him to resist the Tubo army, aren't you afraid that he will unite with the Tubo army in the future?"

Li Xiang did not back down at all. He knew that Changsun Wuji was an important minister in the court. The Li Shimin period was the moment when the Tang Dynasty's national power grew the fastest. If the Tang Dynasty's national policy was changed at this time, he would definitely leave a stable southwest border to future generations. , Tubo would not have invaded the border of Datang during the Tang Dezong period, bloodbathed the four border states, and even threatened the safety of Chang'an for a time.

This boy is indeed no ordinary person!

This is Changsun Wuji's evaluation of Li Xiang. If Ping Gaolice may have been a temporary success, his analysis of Tubo is definitely a stroke of genius.

Changsun Wuji once heard an army general say that Tubo was not a small country, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers. It had always been disloyal to the Tang Dynasty, but they lived on high mountains, even if the Tang Dynasty wanted to attack them. Conquest is even more difficult.

After all, Changsun Wuji was a veteran who had followed Li Shimin to fight in all directions, and he didn't want to leave this kind of hidden danger to future generations, so he was already leaning towards Li Xiang at this moment.

"So we must win over Tuyuhun and let them keep an eye on the door to the southwest for us. It is imperative to implement the peace and marriage policy. If he becomes my son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty, will he still have disobedience?"

After listening to Li Tai's words, both Changsun Wuji and Li Xiang frowned, but Changsun Chong listened with interest. After all, in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, the marriage policy also helped a lot.

Although the eldest grandson Pingting on the side did not know about the border affairs, she felt a little uncomfortable at the thought of a girl marrying far away.

Moreover, from Changsun Pingting's point of view, the relationship between countries is your men's business, why bother to involve women? What's more, can marriage really lead to peace?

If the two countries go to war again, the married woman may be sent to the guillotine at any time. This kind of thing has never happened in history. How many married women in the Han Dynasty died well?

"A son-in-law is half a son-in-law. Do you understand?"

Li Tai became more and more excited when he saw that Li Xiang remained silent.

"Second uncle always says the first half of a sentence, and somehow he forgets the second half. Hasn't he heard that when his son-in-law cries, he behaves like a donkey and farts?"

Li Xiang's words made Changsun Chong laugh. Changsun Pingting held her brows. This boy spoke so openly, but his words were rough and not rude.

Although the son-in-law is considered a member of the family, he is not involved in the core events and the son-in-law's interests can be maintained. However, if there is a conflict with the core interests of the family, the son-in-law can be abandoned at any time. This is not a secret among big families.

The same is true between countries. If you are strong, your son-in-law will treat you as his father-in-law, but if you are not strong, others may come to eat your flesh.

"Xiang'er, do you mean to fight?"

Changsun Wuji was too lazy to watch the bickering between their uncle and nephew and continued to ask his own questions. Changsun Wuji also tended to get married in the past, but after listening to Li Xiang's words today, coupled with some of Li Shimin's recent movements, Changsun Wuji felt that he might need consider carefully.

When Changsun Wuji asked this question, Li Tai and Changsun Chong looked disdainful, thinking that this might be Changsun Wuji laughing at Li Xiang because it went against the national policy of the early Tang Dynasty.

But Changsun Pingting felt that Li Xiang had already won. One of your uncles and nephews talked about fighting with the other. Changsun Wuji did not ask Li Tai, but he asked Li Xiang. Doesn’t this mean that Changsun Wuji’s balance is Already starting to tilt?

"Xiang'er dared to ask my uncle. In the land of Tuyuhun, whether Zakert leads troops to guard it or General Li Jing leads troops to guard it, which one can make my uncle sleep?"

Li Xiang did not answer Changsun Wuji's question, but instead asked another question again.

"You're such a mess, my uncle is asking for a fight or a peace. What's the point of sleeping? You're just an idiot..."

Li Tai's mindless scolding started immediately, but this guy was also a smart man. Before he finished speaking, he already understood Li Xiang's answer and quickly shut his mouth to avoid letting the whole family see it. Show your own stupidity.

But it was too slow. Judging from Changsun Pingting's expression, Li Tai already knew what his cousin was thinking.

It's all this damn boy who made himself look embarrassed. He must not be kept. Keeping him will be a disaster...
