Chapter 16 Prince Tuyuhun's Proposal

"The food is ready, let's take the seat first."

Looking at Li Tai's arrogant look, Li Xiang was about to reply to him, but who knew that Changsun Pingting had spoken.

Changsun Wuji understood that if he wanted to fight with his uncle and nephew, he would probably have to stand here for half an hour. There were so many people coming and going in the family, and it wouldn't be nice to fight with him, so he gave his daughter a wink.

The master has to give face, not to mention that Changsun Pingting's cousin is not an ordinary person. She can almost be said to be half of the Changsun family and is the target to win over.

snort……

The uncle and nephew snorted coldly, disliked each other, but they still followed Changsun Wuji in.

Changsun Pingting took all this in her eyes. The more fierce the fight, the more benefits our Changsun family will be.

Changsun Pingting knew Li Tai, but she didn't know much about Li Xiang, especially the gift she just gave her can definitely be said to be a treasure of the world. Where did this kid get it?

The last time I saw this kid, I was at a family dinner in the palace a few years ago. In a blink of an eye, I had grown so tall and had a good deal. None of these dragon sons and grandsons could be used to save fuel.

After entering the front hall, Changsun Wuji naturally sat in the main seat.

King Li Tai of Wei was the Yizi Prince. He was the most popular candidate for the prince before and was also Li Shimin's favorite prince, so he sat in the first right position.

"How can this work? I only talk about family gifts when I come to my house for dinner. My cousin invited me to sit here."

The first position on the left should be Li Xiang. After all, Li Xiang is the second-character prince and the eldest grandson of the Tang Empire. She deserves to be in this position. If she were the crown prince, Li Tai could not sit in front of him, but this kid is better at being a good person and sat in the lowest position without saying anything.

Changsun Chong and Changsun Pingting kept persuading each other, and they were also beautiful in their hearts. Although they were both the top nobles in the Tang Dynasty, their status was still inferior when facing the royal children. Now that Li Xiang can give them such a great face, both of them remembered it in their hearts.

Bastard!

King Li Tai of Wei cursed in his heart. When he was having dinner here, he used to treat everyone except his uncle Changsun Wuji as servants. He never thought of treating anyone with courtesy, and he didn't think it was a mistake.

Now that I see the smiles on Changsun Chong and Changsun Bingting's faces, this guy knows how outrageous he was wrong before.

"Today is a family dinner. You all go down, I'll just pour wine."

When Li Xiang saw the maid bringing up the wine, she immediately grabbed the wine pot and prepared to pour wine for Changsun Wuji.

"How can this work? Your Highness is kind, you are just so presumptuous."

Changsun Pingting stared at the servants with her eyes.

"Don't be upset with cousin. The younger generation pours wine for the elders. This is the etiquette of Confucius and Mencius. What's more, we're not so convenient for chatting here. Let's let them go. It's just that my nephew runs more errands."

Li Xiang said while pouring wine for several people, including Li Tai, which was also a full glass.

It is not a trivial matter for His Royal Highness to pour wine in person, but it is understandable that Li Xiang brought out the etiquette of Confucius and Mencius.

The Tang Dynasty also respected Confucian education, and respecting the elders and loving the young were also thoughts of Confucius and Mencius. What's more, the relatives of these people present were also relatively close, which did instantly dissipate everyone's sense of strangeness.

The three people from the Changsun family are very familiar with Li Tai, but they are not very familiar with Li Xiang. After all, Li Xiang has only appeared a few days ago, and using such actions to make up for the shortcomings.

Changsun Pingting wanted to say something, but after seeing his father's eyes, she sat down and watched Li Xiang pour wine.

Changsun Wuji is an old fox. One or two things cannot touch his heart. Now he is also carefully observing Li Xiang. If you play it, I see when you can play it.

It is a big deal to become a crown prince. Changsun Wuji would never change his decision just because of a small matter or two. Li Xiang also understands this, so he has to make great efforts. Even if he cannot see the effect in a short period of time, he has to hold it back.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Li Xiang also knew that the highlight was coming. Changsun Wuji called his uncle and nephew home, which was definitely not a simple meal. This may be the first test for the uncle and nephew.

"Erlang, Taier, don't you know? Prince Zatelke of Tuyuhun proposed to me Datang, how do you think we should deal with it?"

The test came so quickly, and no one here was fool, so Changsun Wuji stopped going around and just told the test questions.

King Li Tai of Wei is always famous and is also a leader among princes. Li Xiang is even more powerful. Yesterday, he was in the court and was able to overwhelm the whole court. At present, Changsun Wuji is responsible for the matter of Prince Tuyuhun. It is just right to see if these two people have any ideas, which can help him solve his problems, and also test them by the way.

"I understand Zatelke. He was the first talented man in Tuyuhun. He studied in Chang'an for a long time and admired me for the Tang Dynasty for a long time. Although Tuyuhun has been bad for us over the years, if I am good at guiding me after getting married, I will definitely become a dependent of my Tang Dynasty, helping me protect the southwestern border and prevent Tubo's invasion."

King Li Tai of Wei said proudly that King Li Tai of Wei had consulted many scholars about Tuyuhun, so he didn't wait for Li Xiang to answer, so this guy spoke first to show that he was capable in this regard.

The ancestral ancestry of the Tang Dynasty?

Resisting Tubo?

After listening to Li Tai's words, Li Xiang didn't know what to say. With your brain, you can still be called "Broad talent"?

After thinking about it, I understand that King Li Tai of Wei is Li Shimin's favorite prince. The people below just flatter him hard. Anyway, flattering does not cost money. Li Tai is probably lost in all kinds of flattery and really treats himself as a talented person.

"Erlang is right. Zatelke once traveled widely to Qujiang and left behind many poems, which are quite like my literary style in the Tang Dynasty."

When Li Xiang heard Changsun Chong say this, he knew that his two imperial horses were given away for nothing, and this guy was still the firm King of Wei.

Changsun Bingting had long heard of Zatelke, but Li Xiang had not made any statement yet, so Changsun Bingting didn't say anything. The marriage was highly praised from top to bottom during the Zhenguan period. Could it be that Li Xiang still had a different meaning?

So until Li Xiang expressed her attitude, Changsun Bingting could not speak.

"Xiang'er, what do you think?"
Chapter completed!
