After a brief greeting, asking about your well-being, and praising each other politely, the room became quiet. Li Ze picked up the teacup and took a sip. Xiang Zhen immediately became nervous. The drama that was summoned this time really began!

"I'm extremely unhappy about this incident." Sure enough, as soon as Li Ze spoke, he gave Xiang Zhen a warning. "It even made me very angry."

Taking a deep breath, Xiang Zhen said in words he felt the most sincere, "Li Xiang, I only learned the truth of this matter after I arrived in Wuyi. Xue Ping, Gao Xiangsheng not only deceived you, but also deceived my father and commander."

Xiang Zhen said sorry to Xue Ping in his heart.

Anyway, this person has been exiled to a place that is too far away. If he takes a few more blame, Li Ze will not chop off his head, so he will feel wronged!

"Gao Xiang rose to Lingnan, and represented Li Xiang, and Xue Ping and Gao Xiangsheng were both important officials of the Tang Dynasty. We always thought that this matter was approved by Li Gao." Xiang Zhen said: "Although my Xiang family lives in Lingnan, I have never forgotten the loyalty of serving the country for a moment. Zhu Wen was independent, and my father and commander wanted to raise troops to fight the north immediately, but there were still many unstable towns separated in the middle. They were colleagues with my father and commander. If the name was not correct, they would be unsatisfied. In addition, Lingnan was evaded and had poor strength. If you want to fight the north, you need to integrate the entire southeastern force to do your best. If this matter is done, Xiang family will definitely do their best to go through fire and water."

Li Ze raised his eyebrows: "If this fact is not for the benefit of the country, Xue Ping would not be just exiled."

"Although Li Xiang and Shangshu Xue made a mistake, their original intentions are still dedicated to the country, and they don't know." Xiang Zhen felt that it would be more reasonable to talk to Xue Ping in time.

"Xue Ping was exiled because he exceeded the rules. Without rules, how could he achieve squareness? How could he raise his heart high and let go lightly because of his original intention?" Li Ze said coldly: "The state has national laws, and the family has family rules. If everyone does their own affairs, the family will not become a family, and the country will not be a country!"

"Li Xiang said it." Xiang Zhen lowered his eyebrows and said calmly.

"But this matter is still good in general." Li Ze changed his color and said, "Now the pseudo-liang is moving southward, Shannan East Road and Shannan West Road are defeated at once under the pseudo-liang army. It is an indisputable fact. This year, the court rejected Zhang Zhongwu in the northeast and Toro fire in the northwest. After two battles, it was exhausted and urgently needed to rest for the people. Lingnan stood up at this time, united the southeast forces, and resisted the southeast invasion of the pseudo-liang, which is indeed of great benefit to the state."

"So, did Li Xiang agree to this marriage?" Xiang Zhenxi said.

"If you don't agree, how could you sit here and become my guest!" Li Zezhan said with a smile.

"Li Xiang is broad-minded and is actually a good prime minister of the country. The Tang Dynasty had Li Xiang, but his ancestors had spirits, so they would not cause the Tang Dynasty to overthrow." Xiang Zhen sighed: "The future will be regained Chang'an, and the glorious portrait of Li Xiang will be indispensable in Lingyan Pavilion."

"If you hang something on the wall, wait until I die!" Li Ze laughed: "Only by purging a coffin can you make a conclusion."

Xiang Zhen was shocked and could not speak.

"Mr. Du Yu, Your Majesty is still young," Li Ze said.

"Li Xiang, Your Majesty is thirteen this year, and Xu is fourteen years old, and his daughter Xu is two years older. Even ordinary families are at the same time to talk about marriage. What's more, it's time for this situation, so my father and commander think that Your Majesty's wedding should have a great effect in boosting morale in the world. At the same time, it will also help me with the hearts of millions of people in Lingnan!" Xiang Zhen said in a silence.

"You mean, get married soon!"

"The next year cannot be passed at the latest!" Xiang Zhen said: "As Li Xiang said, the pseudo-liang Xiangnan is very anxious now, and it will take time for us to integrate the southeast."

"It's all right." Li Ze said lightly: "But there is one thing that we should say first. Even if Your Majesty gets married, it will take some time to take power."

"This is natural." Xiang Zhen smiled and said, "To be honest, my father and commander are not at ease. Your Majesty will be at such an age and be in charge of the court. With Li Xiang's control, we can be more at ease."

"That's great." Li Ze nodded and said, "When Du Yuhou returns south, we will also send people to welcome the bride. The Xiang family became an imperial relative and was one with the country. It is natural to give grace. Xiang Shuai will be promoted to the prince, and Du Yuhou will also be promoted to the marquis. At the same time, Xiang Shuai will also be given the title of governing the southeastern towns. There is only so much we can give for the time being. It depends on your own."

"Thank you, Li Xiang!" Xiang Zhen was overjoyed. The title of the prince and the prince was empty, and controlling the southeastern towns was a real benefit. With this name, Xiang could issue orders to other towns with openness. Those who violated the rules could raise troops to challenge them. With the emperor's will, he could hold up the title of righteousness in everything he did, occupying the moral commanding heights among the people and gentry, and it would be much more convenient to act.

Xiangshi had thought about doing this before. With their strength, it was not difficult to do this, but he always felt reluctant to do things because he didn't have the official hat on his head.

"But!" Li Ze changed his tone, "Since Xiang respects the court, the court must also make this clear to the world. Therefore, it is necessary to send officials to Lingnan."

Xiang Zhen was shocked: "Li Xiang, the official of Jie Town, all Jie Town decides themselves!"

Li Ze's face was slightly cold: "Du Yuhou, do you see what the current situation under the imperial court's rule is?"

"Li Xiang, Lingnan is not yet mature in its full implementation of the imperial government policy. At this time, we need to be united and respond to one call!" Xiang Zhen said anxiously.

"Don't worry, I know this naturally." Li Ze said: "The court will send officials in the name of Xuanwei Envoy, just be responsible for field trips and supervision, and not intervene in actual affairs. Of course, the yamen still need to be established. Otherwise, how can it be proved that Lingnan has already served as the Wuyi court?"

Although he knew it was a nail, since Li Ze said that the officials sent would not interfere in interfering in matters, Xiang Zhen felt that it was not unacceptable.

"Of course, Du Yuhou, you need to be clear about one thing, and Xiang Shuai also needs to be clear about that reducing the vassal state is the established strategy of the court. Since the Xiang family is a relative of the emperor, I hope to reach an agreement with Xiang Shuai in the future." Li Ze said.

"Yes, after I go back, I will naturally explain it clearly with my father and commander."

"It's very good. In addition to sending Xuanwei envoys, Wuwei Money House wants to enter Lingnan. Lingnan can no longer mint coins on its own, and can only use the imperial coins." Li Zedao. "The supply and marketing cooperative will also open branches in Lingnan to transport economic exchanges between the two places."

"Xiang Zhen cannot make decisions about these things, so he can only go back and report to his father and commander before making a decision!" Xiang Zhen said in a hint.

"Okay, after all, this is a big event and needs to be negotiated slowly." Li Ze said lightly: "Speaking of this, we can only be considered cooperation now. One day, after we destroy the fake beam, some things can be put on the table to discuss."

"Li Xiangyingming." Xiang Zhen bowed: "These things involve economic and people's livelihood. If you are not careful, you will suffer endless disasters. Be careful and cautious."

"At that time, the imperial court will have important officials going to Lingnan to meet the bride in person, so let's talk to your father in detail!" Li Ze waved his hand and said, "There must be a constitution."

"Yes!" Xiang Zhen said.

As long as he doesn't force him to agree now, he will not be able to compare his father's political wisdom and political skills, and he may be able to come up with a solution to it at that time.

"I have one last thing." Li Ze's tone became stern. "I guess Du Yu Hou also knew that Qin Zhao was dismissed and Jin Shiyuan was imprisoned?"

"I heard a little." Xiang Zhen's heart was thrilled. This was the thing he was most reluctant to face, because they couldn't explain it clearly or ignore it.

"Two thousand soldiers of the Left Guard! But they were lied to be killed or disabled, and received a large amount of pension to fill their personal pockets." Li Ze said angrily: "It would be fine if it was just corruption, but these people were built up to go to somewhere."

Li Ze stared at Xiang Zhen, and Xiang Zhen lowered his head guiltily: "I really don't know about this."

"It doesn't matter whether you know it or not." Li Ze waved his hand: "I won't catch this matter and ruin the major event of our alliance. But for two thousand people, we only intercepted one thousand people, and the other thousand people, I guess we have arrived somewhere now. I want to hand over this matter to Xiang Shuai. I need them to return to Wuyi for these thousand people."

"Xiang Zhen does his best to do this."

"Okay, then that's it. I have other things to deal with." Li Ze waved his hand, "You can contact the Ministry of Rites for some specific matters. I will summon you again after the specific regulations come out."

"Yes!" Xiang Zhen stood up, bowed to the powerful young man in front of him, took a few steps back, and then turned around and left the house.

Zhang Xun, who was holding the notes in the corner of the house, put down his pen, shook his wrist and said, "Li Xiang, do you really think Xiang Xun will send these people back?"

"Of course he won't."

"Then why did Li Xiang catch this matter?" Zhang Xun said in confusion.

Li Ze laughed: "This word "little" is well used. This is a small tail. When you need it, you can take it out and grab it."

Zhang Xun suddenly realized.

"If you have a good chance, you will be together; if you don't, you will be divided. At present, the alliance is good, but there will always be conflicts." Li Ze sighed: "I think Xiang Zhen really wants to unite with us, but what about his father is like, just say two. Whoever can rise to a town in the same place does not have strong confidence in himself? And Xiang Xun has achieved remarkable achievements over the years, let alone."

"His granddaughter is in our hands!"
