Li Xiang is indeed waiting for the situation in Samarkand, in fact, the victory or defeat of the war, Li Xiang's psychology has long been known, whether it is the Tang army, the Gaochang army, or the army temporarily formed in the Western Regions, as long as they do not make too many mistakes, then the Arab Empire will not bring them too much harm.

If it is the first time to fight, I'm afraid Li Xiang is not so sure to count, now he has fought several times, although Li Xiang has given the Arab Empire a high evaluation in his heart, but to be honest, this situation is still overestimating them.

But during this time, many people in the imperial court talked about the issue of the war budget.

Li Xiang can't refute this matter, which is also the first thing he put forward, every war must have certain benefits, unless it is our Great Patriotic War, otherwise, all other wars must have certain benefits.

At that time, when someone said this, many people in the court still refuted it, but when they refuted it for a while, they found that Li Xiang did not refute it in any form, and at this time they knew that Li Xiang also recognized this sentence.

How can we say that we are also old men, standing up is not shorter than others, everything we said before is the truth, how can we not admit it at this time? Although Li Xiang did not refute these people's words, he also hoped that he could give more time, and this feedback would definitely come back after a while.

Now that it has been more than half a month since the end of the battle of Samarkand City, it is time for these people in Chang'an City to shut up, and they have sent back a large amount of money from the front, and these people should understand.

The war led by Li Xiang has never lost money, and it can make you a lot of money, and now the money sent back alone is more than 1 million more than our military expenses and post-war pensions.

In addition, there are nearly 9,000 girls transported back from the front line, which is also our trophies, Li Xiang does not prohibit such things, and this is also to let all the people of Datang see clearly, as long as you can win a war, then these people are our trophies.

But if you lose a war, your sisters may also be dragged to the market, just for our sisters not to be harmed by others, then we also have to win this war, so that all the people can see clearly that after the war is over, everything is different between the victors and the losers, which can inspire everyone to move forward bravely towards victory.

"Hahahaha..."

Li Xiang was reviewing the official documents, and a very familiar laughter came from outside, Su Dingfang had just returned from the household department.

"Look at the appearance of your villain, the adults of the household department are not saying that it is difficult for us, this is also what I said at the beginning, every war has a war cost, if we can't fill this war cost, then our war might as well not be fought!"

Of course Li Xiang knew why Su Dingfang was so happy, just now he took the silver ticket to the household department to return to the public, didn't you say that we would definitely lose money? When those people saw the silver ticket, Su Dingfang was not to mention how satisfied he was, when did we make the imperial court lose money when we did things in the Tiance General's Mansion? If it weren't for all these years, we would be fighting abroad, would you Beijing officials be so happy?

"Your Royal Highness, you have a lot of adults, you don't have to worry about those guys, but I can't, I saw the villain who played by those guys, my heart was eager to beat them, and now I see our silver tickets, one by one will say something good, I didn't let go of any of them, one by one they returned to them what they said in the hall that day, and let them know to look at the problem, don't keep staring at the account book in front of you in the long run, and you won't be able to become a big tool in the future."

When Su Dingfang said this, the whole person's heart was still very happy, when he was in the Jinluan Palace that day, these guys quoted the stronghold and degraded the people of our Tiance General's Mansion to worthless, and they had to talk about the disadvantages of the financial crisis at every turn.

Since our Highness set out on the expedition, when have you had a financial crisis? Now it's just that there is this trend, you people can't sit still, it's only been half a month, you should know the result, so you should have a meal.

Li Xiang didn't know what to say about Su Dingfang's temper, and those people were not purely for themselves, there were many people who worked hard for the construction of the entire Tang Dynasty, but they were afraid of a financial crisis.

Take the entire Tang Dynasty now, the financial budget has become the most important work every year, all the places have been stipulated, not the same as the original time, you can spend whatever you want, now most of the money is useful, because the war embezzled part of the money, of course, you have to make up for it quickly, if you don't make up for it, then the other work of the imperial court will stop, which can affect not 120,000 people, it is likely to be millions of people.

"By the way, Your Highness, those girls from the Western Regions are already on the way, what do you have..."

Su Dingfang didn't finish saying this, but as a man, he understands that these people, since they are our trophies, they are going to be sold in Chang'an City anyway, so of course we have the right of first choice.

"I'm three big heads now, you go to my harem to have a look, every day in addition to all kinds of jealousy, I feel that I don't have the strength to do it, if you are willing to mediate, you can pick and choose yourself, just make it in your palace, and go to the palace to get a message."

Even if the beauties of the Western Regions are very beautiful, Li Xiang really doesn't have that mood now, and all kinds of things at home are bad enough, so the current Li Xiang doesn't have that idea.

But Li Shimin and Li Chengqian are different, originally Li Shimin was already idle, and most of the things were handed over to Li Chengqian and Li Xiang, but now that Li Xiang is staying in the capital, there are not many things under Li Chengqian's hands.

These two people are energetic, if you don't give them a breakthrough, I'm afraid they will find out a lot of things, these women are all transported from the Western Regions, and the slaves don't have any foundation at all, it's just that they are more good-looking. So if you are picked by these two masters, it will not pose any threat to Li Xiang, but it will help a lot.
