Chapter 611: An Opportunity to Exercise
To tell the truth, although Xiao Yu's house is also an official mansion, there has been no public announcement of the official mansion for a long time, because their family is too far away from the core of the imperial court, and even if there is anything, it is something that is not very important.
When Li Xiang and Li Chengqian went to the palace, Xiao Yu's eyes were also full of envy, this is a person sent by the emperor, and now there is a problem in the northwest, Li Xiang and Li Chengqian must enter the palace immediately.
Because of this matter, all the people who have something to do with the northwest have been called over by the emperor, although Xiao Shougui has just served and has not been to the northwest, but it is also related to this matter, so just now he quickly changed into a four-grade official uniform and followed Li Xiang and them into the palace together.
Xiao Yu's face finally showed a hint of pride, although he had faded out of the court before, but his grandson is finally going back now, although he is only a fourth-grade official, it is nothing in Chang'an City, where high-ranking officials gather, but this is a good start, as long as there is a start, are you afraid that there will be no future in the future?
"Didn't you say that the Northwest has been pacified? Why is there still an emergency military situation now? Just now I saw a few officers of the military department, they should have come to explain the affairs of the northwest to Taisun, is there another war? ”
Princess Xiangcheng said with some worry, she was afraid that her son would have no future in the past, but now her son has finally arranged it, but how can a mother not worry about going to a relatively war-torn place?
"The land of Datang is so big, there may be a war at any time, and the boss can participate in it is also his creation, if he can't participate, what is the difference between him and these people in Chang'an City who eat and wait for death, our family can only look at him now."
Xiao Yu touched his beard and said, this is his own grandson, how can he not worry about the safety of his grandson, but the whole family has faded out of the court for too long, if it is not able to return now, when Li Chengqian ascends the throne and becomes emperor, there may really not be much hope.
Once a son of heaven and a courtier, this sentence is by no means a joke, if you can squeeze in now, then when the resources are allocated in the future, the Lanling Xiao family will be able to get it more or less, but if it is more than ten or twenty years later, then all the resources will be distributed, you want to snatch food from other people's mouths, do you think it is so easy?
"Father said yes, but if there is a real fight, the boss of our family ......"
Princess Xiangcheng said with some concern, his eldest son is a scholar, and he doesn't know anything about the situation on the battlefield, if he is rashly pushed to the battlefield, it is not a good thing.
"It's a mule or a horse have to be pulled out for a walk, usually our baby looks like something, now it's finally time to show your true skills, you can rest assured, just because he is the emperor's grandson, after arriving in the northwest, no one will really let him go to the battlefield, at most he will stay in the camp, I guess there should be something wrong in the northwest."
Xiao Yu didn't say the second half of the sentence, everything in the northwest was operated by Li Xiang, how could something too big happen? If something too big happens, it means that there is something wrong with Li Xiang's planning, and maybe the emperor will find trouble with him.
This may be an opportunity for Xiao Shougui, although this time to go to the northwest has something to do with Li Xiang, but the opportunity in the court can not be too much, once Li Xiang does something wrong, then the emperor will definitely find someone to fill this gap in the northwest, and our family boss may have this fate.
Just when these people were thinking wildly, Li Xiang was also listening to the report of the military officials, Li Shimin was directly shocked when he received the news, he originally thought that Xue Yantuo Khan was a lost dog, at most he was just fleeing for his life, but he didn't expect that after this guy ran to the Western Regions, he lobbied several countries in the Western Regions one after another, and now he has formed a coalition army, and the army has arrived at the Gaochang border.
Now the upper echelons of Gaochang Kingdom are also loosened, they don't know how to choose, on the one hand, the powerful Tang Dynasty, on the other hand, the alliance of the countries of the Western Regions, Gaochang also belongs to one of the countries of the Western Regions, so they are now hesitating.
Xue Yantuo Khan has already released his words, and he wants to lead the coalition forces of the Western Regions to attack the Tang Dynasty, which is a joke in itself, and he won't believe it if he tells others, but this letter was written by Su Dingfang himself, and there is a joint name of Lord Zhao next to it, it seems that something terrible has indeed happened in the northwest.
Li Xiang father and son quickly came to the Jinluan Palace, there is still a lot of information received here, the Western Regions countries have a total of 50,000 people, you must know that although there are many countries in the Western Regions, but the military strength is not very strong, and the leader is naturally the Western Turks.
Speaking of the Western Turks, this is the old enemy of the Tang Dynasty, it turned out that the Turks were a country, and they were later defeated by Li Shimin, which was divided into two parts, the east naturally returned to the Tang Dynasty, and the west ran westward, and now it is still the enemy of the Tang Dynasty.
Although Su Dingfang has not yet figured out the situation, the analysis is also very reasonable, after Xue Yantuo Khan ran to the Western Turks, the Western Turks must have felt that this was an opportunity, so they gave Xue Yantuo Khan some help, but I didn't expect this guy to really do it, he united the countries of the Western Regions and told them about the threat of the Tang Dynasty, and the countries also saw the results of Xue Yantuo and the Turks, so they naturally had to take precautions first.
"You did this by yourself, how do you think it should be resolved?"
Li Shimin can still look at this matter very fairly, if it is the original time, you will have to scold Li Xiang when you come up, you should ask you for your guilt if you do it like this, but Li Shimin did not do this, he knew that the root of this matter was in the attack of General Li Jing back then, when General Li Jing defeated the Turks, some people have a deep hatred for the Tang Dynasty, so these people would rather go away, and they must also fight against the Tang Dynasty.
Now that they have finally found an opportunity, Xue Yantuo Khan has appeared to say, talking about the arrogance of the Tang Dynasty, and talking about the foreign policy of the Tang Dynasty, which has successfully fooled the countries in the Western Regions, and the current situation of the Gaochang Kingdom has also shown them that if you are close to the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty is really likely to control you, so in order not to be controlled by the Tang Dynasty, then we can only raise troops to resist first, at least to drive the forces of the Tang Dynasty back to Guannai, that is, to the east of Gaochang......
