Chu Suiliang thought for a while before he remembered, "I don't know how to interfere in the palace. But I have heard of all the recent things. Do you have to do things to this extent?"

Gu Qing turned a deaf ear and still grilled the meat, took out a piece of cut beef and said, "I wonder how much sorrow you can have, cumin teppanyaki fat beef."

"Gu Qing!" Chu Suiliang looked at Gu Qing with a calm look on his face and felt anxious.

While applying the sauce, Gu Qing said, "Are you here to say good things to Li Chengqian?"

Chu Suiliang sighed, "Did you treat Li Chengqian like this because of Su Dingfang?"

"Yes." Gu Qing nodded.

Chu Suiliang didn't expect Gu Qing to answer so quickly, and he didn't seem to be planning to hide it from him, "They are the royal family!"

After taking a sip of beer, Gu Qing continued, "What's wrong with the royal family? He is capable, Li Chengqian also dealt with me like this. If he doesn't have the ability, he will put it in the palace. Su Dingfang is my brother, and I have been born and died on the battlefield. Even if Su Dingfang wants to resign, Li Chengqian must give me a face. Even if he doesn't give me face, then no one of us wants face."

"Is it too much?" Chu Suiliang said again.

Gu Qing shook his head and said, "If you have the ability, he will send troops to chop me up now. Relying on his identity as emperor, he can treat my friends like this. I dare to do this! Don't think that Li Chengqian is the biggest, I, Gu Qing, just know the most truth."

"What are you going to do?" Chu Suiliang was also anxious.

"Let Li Chengqian give Su Dingfang a county marquis and allocate 300 hectares of fertile land south of Chang'an to Su Dingfang, and his inheritance will be replaced by his generation." Gu Qing said while eating barbecue, "As long as he Li Chengqian issued an order, he will let it go. If he doesn't issue an order, he may have to cut off food in the palace in a few days."

Chu Suiliang looked at Gu Qing's barbecue on the iron net and sighed, "In fact, Su Dingfang's military merits are not too much. Su Dingfang's prestige is still very high in the army. Many generals in the army admire Su Dingfang very much. However, last year, Li Chengqian kept installing people in the army to decentralize power. At that time, there were voices in the army. Some people disagree with Li Chengqian doing this. A good team was demolished and the good generals were replaced, and a person who did not understand military tactics at all."

"Because I am the Secretariat, many memorials have to go through the Secretariat." Chu Suiliang continued, "I have also seen some memorials handed over by the Ministry of War, most of which impeach the new generals. I also handed the memorials into the Ganlu Hall, but it was like a rock sinking into the sea. Li Chengqian ignored it. Thinking about it, these were arranged by Li Chengqian himself, so why could Li Chengqian not get along with him?"

Chu Suiliang took a sip of beer, "After that, more and more voices appeared in the army. Su Dingfang was afraid of a mutiny in the army, so he summoned all generals to appease them and told them not to cause trouble. If Su Dingfang had not suppressed him, he would have been in trouble in the army. At first, the teams led by Su Dingfang were all brave generals in the army, and each of them was a veteran who had been left behind several life-and-death battles. These veterans gathered in a very powerful combat power."

"Gu Qing." Chu Suiliang patted Gu Qing's shoulder and said, "The emperor also has selfish intentions. The generals under Su Dingfang are too powerful. In order to capture the military power in his own hands, Li Chengqian would rather strangle the team that Su Dingfang trained over the years. After several replacements of Li Chengqian, the people under Su Dingfang dispersed and left. Su Dingfang was for the stability of the army. But Li Chengqian was just for his selfish intentions and would rather strangle the strength of the army than put the military power in his own hands. After that, Su Dingfang did not go to court for more than half a month. Sometimes he would get sick and sometimes he would not say anything but just not come to court until he resigned."

Chu Suiliang didn't say that he didn't know what Li Chengqian had done in the army. Gu Qing shook his head and said, "It's so ridiculous."

"Yes, it's so ridiculous." Chu Suiliang also said.

"Squeeze the forces in the army and take power in your own hands. It is better to let a group of wine bags command the war." Gu Qing sneered, "Who taught Li Chengqian to do this? If the students of the academy were smarter than him, Li Chengqian, would he, kill all the students of the academy to kill the people and rule his world?"

"Don't be too excited," Chu Suiliang persuaded, "Actually, Su Dingfang was not rewarded after leaving the army this time. Words have already been introduced into the palace. I will persuade Li Chengqian to give Su Dingfang a title, so how can you let it go immediately?"

"Yes." Gu Qing nodded.

After Chu Suiliang left, Li Xiang walked out from the side.

"You heard it all." Gu Qing looked at Li Xiang.

Li Xiang also nodded, "Teacher, is military strength very important?"

"Important." Gu Qing nodded seriously, "At that time, General Su Dingfang led his army to fight across the country and gained a great reputation for the Tang Dynasty. Now that Goguryeo has surrendered, the Turks are in a slump, and Tubo is not as good as before, and the Tang Dynasty has begun to become more comfortable."

"Isn't it good to be more comfortable?" Li Xiang obediently brought a small stool and sat next to Gu Qing.

"It is naturally good to be comfortable, but comfort can also be a hidden danger." Gu Qing said to Li Xiang: "This kind of comfort will make the tiger lose its combat effectiveness, and will make an adult put down the weapons in his hands. When he becomes a baby, it will be the end of the world."

"Why?" Li Xiang asked again.

Gu Qing handed Li Xiang a bowl of beer and said, "I'll tell you after drinking it."

"Okay." Li Xiang took the bowl of wine and drank it in one sip. "Teacher, I'm done."

Gu Qing said again, "When a person lies in a comfortable bed all day and does not exercise, his physical strength will decrease. When a tiger is kept by someone, he will lose his animal nature. It is better to say human beings. It is actually not scary for a person to lose his human nature, but if a person loses his animal nature, that is the most terrifying thing. It is like a wild beast raised in captivity. If a person loses his animal nature, it will become someone else's meal on the plate. Now the Tang Dynasty looks comfortable. Goguryeo, Tubo, and Turks all surrender to the Tang Dynasty, but this kind of surrender is not permanent."

Li Xiang poured wine for Gu Qing and then listened attentively.
