Chapter 17: People Who Are Not My Race Must Have Different Hearts
When Li Tai heard Changsun Wuji ask him, Li Xiang also put down the chopsticks in his hand. After seeing this scene, Li Tai was very angry. He just published such a big statement. You, a kid, listened honestly, but instead ate your mouth full of oil.
Li Xiang has not eaten since she came out in the morning. She is hungry now. She has no time to listen to Li Tai’s nonsense, let alone what you said is useless.
According to the historical trend, Tuyuhun has never sincerely surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. Although he was given a marriage, he still met with weapons in the end. Instead of this, why not fight at the beginning?
What's more, in Li Xiang's heart, the only thing that had flaws in the Tang Dynasty was the many marriages. In the past, we couldn't care about it. Now that we have traveled here, there will never be any talks about marriages in the Tang Dynasty in the future.
Of course, if the surrounding countries are willing to marry a princess, it is still possible to allow our women to go to your place, which is impossible...
Li Xiang has always eaten more when dealing with women. Yours can come to us, but ours can't go to you. This is our philosophy. If you don't accept it, you will fight.
"Uncle, I understand one thing: if you are not my race, your heart will be different."
Li Xiang wiped his mouth and spitted out these words. The expression on Changsun Wuji's face also changed drastically. Although Li Xiang didn't say so much, these words also expressed his attitude.
In the early years of Zhenguan, the Tang Dynasty was relatively weak, especially the northern Turkic army was approaching. Even if Li Shimin was a powerful leader of his generation, he could not realize his ambitions and had no choice but to have the shame of the Wei River.
For other surrounding countries, the Tang Dynasty also adopted a policy of gentleness and tried to stabilize them with the policy of marriage, but now do
gThe Turks have been destroyed and the Tang Dynasty's national strength has soared. If you continue to marry, it is indeed a bit unrealistic.
"You boy is simply nonsense. If you follow your words, wouldn't you want to defeat the surrounding areas? Don't forget that even though the country is big, it will perish if you are wary!"
Li Tai immediately grabbed Li Xiang's words.
"Second uncle, don't forget that even if the world is safe, forgetting the war will lead to danger. Then are Tuyuhun and my Tang Dynasty the same mind? Although the prince has been sent to Chang'an to study in recent years, has the friction in the border areas reduced? Are you not afraid of his alliance with Tubo in the future?"
Li Xiang did not retreat at all. He knew that Changsun Wuji was an important official in the court. The Li Shimin period was the fastest growing moment in the Tang Dynasty. If the national policy of the Tang Dynasty was changed at this time, it would definitely leave a stable southwest border for future generations. Tubo would not invade the Tang Dynasty's border during the Tang Dynasty, slaughtering the four border states, and even threatening the safety of Chang'an for a time.
This kid is indeed not an ordinary person!
This is Changsun Wuji's evaluation of Li Xiang. If you say that the Goryeo Ce might have been obtained for a while, but your analysis of Tubo is definitely a masterpiece.
Changsun Wuji once heard from the generals of the army that the Tubo Kingdom was not a small country, with hundreds of thousands of troops, and had always been disobedient towards our Tang Dynasty. However, they lived on a high mountain, and even if our Tang Dynasty wanted to conquer it, it would be even more difficult.
After all, Changsun Wuji was an old minister who followed Li Shimin to fight in all directions, and he didn't want to leave such hidden dangers to future generations, so he was already inclined to Li Xiang's side at this moment.
"So we must win over Tuyuhun and let them look forward to the southwest gate for us. It is imperative to implement the policy of marriage. If we become my son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty, will he still be disobedient?"
After hearing Li Tai's words, Changsun Wuji and Li Xiang frowned, but Changsun Chong listened with relish. After all, in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, the marriage policy also helped a lot.
Although Changsun Bingting, who was standing by, was not clear about the border, she felt a little uncomfortable when she thought of a girl marrying from afar.
Moreover, in Changsun Pingting's opinion, it is your men's business, so why bother to get married? What's more, can you really be peaceful if you marry a marriage?
Once the two countries fight again, the married women may be sent to the guillotine at any time. This has happened in history. How many of the married women in the Han Dynasty have had a good end?
"A son-in-law is half a son, do you kid understand?"
When Li Tai saw Li Xiang not saying anything, he became more and more excited.
"Uncle II always says the first half of the sentence, why did he forget it? There is still the second half of the sentence? Didn't Uncle II hear it when his son-in-law cried and farted as a donkey when he farted?"
Li Xiang's words made Changsun Chong laugh. Changsun Pingting held his brows. This boy spoke too uncovered, but his words were rough and not rough.
Although the son-in-law is also considered a family member, it does not involve core events and the interests of the son-in-law can be maintained. However, if there is a conflict with the core interests of the family, the son-in-law can be given up at any time, which is not a secret in the big family.
The same is true between countries. If you have strength, your son-in-law will regard you as your father-in-law, but if you don’t have strength, someone may come to eat your meat.
"Xiang'er, do you mean to fight?"
Changsun Wuji was too lazy to watch their uncle and nephew bickering and continued to ask his own questions. In the past, Changsun Wuji also tended to marry, but today after listening to Li Xiang's words and coupled with Li Shimin's recent moves, Changsun Wuji felt that he might need to consider carefully.
When Changsun Wuji asked this, Li Tai and Changsun Chong looked disdainful, thinking that this might be Changsun Wuji mocking Li Xiang because it violated the national policy of the early Tang Dynasty.
But Changsun Bingting felt that Li Xiang had won. One of your uncles and nephews said to fight with the other. Changsun Wuji did not ask Li Tai, but asked Li Xiang. Doesn’t this mean that Changsun Wuji’s balance has begun to tilt?
"Xiang'er dared to ask his uncle a question, on the land of Tuyuhun, Zachelt led his troops to guard the army and General Li Jing led his troops to guard the army, which one can make his uncle sleep?"
Li Xiang did not answer Changsun Wuji's question, but instead raised another question again.
"You kid is simply a mess. My uncle asked if he wanted to fight and make peace. What's the point of sleeping? He's just an idiot..."
Li Tai's brainless scolding came soon, but this guy was also a smart person. Before he could finish his words, he already understood Li Xiang's answer and quickly closed his mouth so that the family could see his brainlessness.
But the collection was too slow. From Changsun Pingting's expression, Li Tai already knew what this cousin was thinking.
It's all this damn kid, he made himself fool of himself, so you must not keep him, keeping him is a scourge...
