Chapter 677: The King of Qi Who Caused Trouble
"I'll go down and gather my troops."
Yu Chi Baolin knew that the northwest was unstable, and the reason why Li Xiang transferred it was because something might happen, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.
Li Xiang nodded, it is indeed inappropriate for Yu Chi Baolin to be here, after all, this is related to the royal scandal, no matter what kind of words are spread in the future, Yu Chi Baolin will be suspicious, and people go out to assemble the team at this time, which can be regarded as avoiding suspicion.
When King Qi left, Li Xiang told him that our current purpose is not to really fight, but to let the countries of the Western Regions see the toughness of our Tang Dynasty in the process of causing trouble, and get certain benefits without fighting.
It is said that Li Xiang's strategy is no problem, if you look at the whole thing, Qi King Li You has done it very well, but it is not for you to complete it in this way, if this news is blocked, it is relatively good, but if it is spread, then the reputation of Datang in the future will stink.
"Something that is not enough to achieve, and more than to fail."
Li Xiang also felt a headache, the Western Turks are the largest country in the entire Western Regions, and now the wife of the prince is being played, if people don't show anything, then it's really hell.
"There is no problem with the safety of your prince, right?"
Although Li You is not a thing, but this guy is the Prince of the Tang Dynasty after all, and now Li Xiang is in charge of the affairs of the Western Regions, don't care what this guy has done, if he dies here, Li Xiang will be difficult to explain this matter, in the eyes of some conspirators, it may be that Li Xiang deliberately killed Li You.
"Back to His Royal Highness, after this incident, General Niu sent people to protect our prince, and then we didn't dare to live in the city, all the people went to the military camp outside the city, but the Western Turks actually sent a large army to surround us, and we were not allowed to leave the Western Turk king's capital for thirty miles."
This entourage didn't dare to hide it now, and told everything in one go, if Li Xiang didn't know about the local difficulties, how could Li Xiang send troops to the rescue?
After hearing this, Li Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he was still in his own military camp, Niu Jinda was not a fool, the combat effectiveness of the troops under him was very strong, and there was no way to defeat the capital of the Western Turks, but it was no problem to escort them to run back.
"Go down and rest, shut your mouth for me, if there is a word that spreads, don't say that your lord's life is not guaranteed, and your ancestors are gone for three generations."
When Li Xiang spoke, there was a guard behind him who followed this guy, and for a period of time in the future, he would have to monitor this guy twenty-four hours a day.
Lord Zhao was originally sent back to rest, who knew that he was helped back again, I heard that someone in the Western Regions came back quickly, Lord Zhao also wanted to know what was going on, after all, Lord Zhao was also one of the people in charge here, if something really happened, Lord Zhao would also be to blame.
"It's ridiculous, this is simply ridiculous, my Datang face has been lost by him."
Lord Zhao is a bit of a mistake when he says this, he is just a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, but King Qi is the son of the emperor, but King Qi has done such a disgusting thing, no one can say it, especially Lord Zhao is still a Taoist gentleman.
"Who's to say it isn't? I thought that my fifth uncle was looking at the princess of some country, even if something happened, it would be a big deal for us to marry this princess back, but I didn't expect him to take a fancy to someone else's princess, and if something like this happened, it was by no means as simple as taking it back. ”
Li Xiang also felt the thorniness of this matter, if the Western Turks turned against the Tang Dynasty because of this matter, at least half of the other countries would follow the Western Turks, and now the army under Li Xiang's command is not that they dare not fight, but it will definitely increase casualties at that time, the most important thing is that after the battle, we don't have enough troops to occupy the entire Western Regions, so isn't it in vain?
"Lord Zhao, this matter is not small, it seems that I have to go far away, otherwise people will not let it back."
Li Xiang thought about it left and right, this matter must be done by himself, if it drags on like this, according to that idiot's way of doing things, it is very likely that this matter will be made worse, while it has not yet caused very serious consequences, Li Xiang must quickly cut through the mess and solve this matter quickly.
"Your Highness must not go at this time, there are many people in the entire Western Turkic country who know about this matter, if they really want to take revenge, then His Royal Highness the King of Qi must have no way to live, and it is still okay for me to lose a prince in the Tang Dynasty, but if something goes wrong with you, the court will ......"
What Lord Zhao said is the truth, Li You, the king of Qi, don't look at it as the emperor's son, but this guy's sense of existence has not been high, even if he dies in the Western Regions, at most, we will be reprimanded, and the big deal is that we will be demoted, and it is even possible to take off the black yarn hat, but we can bear these results.
But what if Li Xiang went there in person and something happened? Who should I cry to at that time? You must know that Li Xiang is now the imperial grandson of the Tang Empire, that is, the third-generation heir, and I don't know how many people want Li Xiang to die, so Li Xiang must not risk his life.
"I'm definitely going to have to go to this thing, and no matter who dies on either side, it's going to have a profound impact on our relationship, didn't we say that before? We are like a strong wolf now, but the other party is a huge elephant, we can only make him scared now, but there is no way to kill them, and the whole situation cannot be changed. ”
Li Xiang also has no choice, now all parts are recovering rapidly, if there is another year, Li Xiang can mobilize a large number of troops to occupy the Western Regions, but now it is not at this time, we must stabilize the countries in the Western Regions, and we must maintain the current diplomatic situation and put pressure on them without going to war.
It's like walking a tightrope, if you don't walk well, you may fall down at any time, Lord Zhao thinks again and again and there is no other way to solve it, although he can also go over, but it is not weighty at all, who let Li You do too much, even the princess of other people dares to seduce, this is something that no man can bear, he didn't kill him on the spot, this is already quite good.
