Chapter 39 Let the Wang family share the pressure

Li Shimin and Xu Xu chatted for a while, and Empress Changsun listened silently next to her, feeling a little bored, so she said to Li Shimin: "Second brother, that matter!"

"Hahaha!"

Li Shimin laughed, then said to Xu Xu: "Boy, I heard Empress Dowager Xiao say that she betrothed her granddaughter to you?"

"Empress Xiao?"

Xu Xu's eyes suddenly widened, looking disbelief. Did Empress Xiao get into Li Yuan like this?

"What are you thinking? Empress Xiao is the queen and my mother-in-law. What's wrong with me calling her the queen mother?"

After hearing this explanation, Xu Xu suddenly realized that it was reasonable to say this.

"It's nothing. She just gave her granddaughter to me as a maid."

Xu Xu waved his hand and said that there was no such thing as betrothal.

"maid?"

Queen Changsun's eyes lit up immediately, and then she said, "Since that's the case, are you just not having a marriage contract?"

Looking at Empress Changsun's expression, coupled with the fact that she asked her to call her mother before.

Xu Xu was sure she must have wanted to give herself a red line.

At this moment, if Li Er is here, if he issuing an order to marry, he will not be able to escape.

So Xu Xu said, "I am still a child! I don't want to get married so early!"

"Isn't it good to get married early? If you are unfilial, you are the best. The Mao Gong family is the only one with the surname Xu. If you are exposed that day and are assassinated by the aristocratic family, then isn't your lineage absent? "

Li Shimin looked at Xu Xu and said.

"Your Majesty, tell me which family is most likely to assassinate me?"

"It's probably the Wang family. You have a great grudge against them. You made a grudge half a year ago, and now you have added another round of money."

Li Shimin made a brief analysis.

"Wang family? Wang family in Taiyuan, it seems that they need to go to their house to take a look."

Xu Xu muttered silently.

"You have no martial arts skills, but you still dare to go to the Wang family in Taiyuan? Do you know the power of the Wang family in Taiyuan?

Even if you have martial arts skills, it will probably be difficult for them to play well in Taiyuan.

They have been operating Taiyuan for hundreds of years, and the family's ancestral land must have strong defense capabilities, and you can't talk about the benefits."

"The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the main lineage of the Wang family in Taiyuan should all go home, right?"

Xu Xu narrowed his eyes and suddenly had an immature thought in his heart.

"What do you want to do? Want to cut off the direct lineage of the Wang clan in Taiyuan?"

Li Shimin knew what Xu Xu meant as soon as he heard Xu Xu's words: "You may not be able to do it when you have martial arts. What else do you want now?"

"How can I know if I don't try it? Although I have no martial arts skills, I still have a trump card!"

Xu Xu sneered, then said to Li Shimin: "Sometimes, martial arts do not necessarily have deterrence. The unknown terror is really terrifying!"

"What unknown horror? What do you want to do? Let me explain it clearly to me first! Don't do it randomly!"

Li Shimin was a little panicked, not knowing what trouble Xu Xu wanted to do again.

"The people are ignorant now. If the Wang family in Taiyuan encounters natural disasters, they will definitely be despised by the people. Your Majesty, you don't have to think too much. By next year, you will know how much pressure the Wang family in Taiyuan will share you."

After hearing Xu Xu's words, Li Shimin's eyelids twitched for no reason.

"What are you going to do? Give me a tip first! If you want to touch the Wang family in Taiyuan, the world will definitely be shocked!"

Li Shimin dared not make a mess. He has seen Xu Xu's big money, but he has gained too much knowledge in the past few months.

"Don't worry, I will create the illusion of natural disasters. Your Majesty, please rest assured."

Xu Xu smiled indifferently and said that he had no choice but to create a natural disaster, but now he has a solution.

"Natural disaster? Will it affect the people?"

Li Shimin immediately asked, what he wanted to know was whether this natural disaster would affect the people.

"My master once said that there will be too many natural disasters next year, and even you may issue a self-criticism."

"What?"

When Li Shimin heard the news, he was shocked.

What kind of natural disaster can make him issue an edict for guilt?

"A small drought, accompanied by locust plague, the aristocratic family created some rumors. Contact Your Majesty's actions last year. Do you say that this self-criticism is yourselves, or will you not give up?"

Xu Xu glanced at Li Er, and then found that Li Er's face had turned pale and his whole body was trembling.

This incident has already stepped on his bottom line and pulled his fig leaf.

"If it was the first day of the New Year, the Wang family in Taiyuan encountered a natural disaster, which led to the almost complete destruction of the main family's direct lineage. Do you think that if there was another natural disaster, would the Wang family in Taiyuan share the pressure with you?"

After hearing Xu Xu's words, Li Er closed his eyes silently.

After thinking carefully for a while, he opened his eyes and said to Xu Xu: "You go and prepare, but I must also prepare well. This year, it is rainy and the harvest of the people is not good. If there is a severe drought next year, the people will suffer a lot. If it is accompanied by locust plague, there may be no harvest!"

"Your Majesty, this matter is OK."

Xu Xu smiled and then said to Li Shimin: "Why did the Turks go south? Isn't it just for food? Now the second Turkic Khan is dead, so we can't eat anymore, so we can learn from them, right? So many cattle, sheep and horses?"

Xu Xu's words made Li Shimin feel very funny.

This is something that the Turks can do, but can the Tang Dynasty do it?

The Tang Dynasty is the Heavenly Kingdom! It is a country of etiquette. Can unjust wars be carried out?

Absolutely not possible!

If he does that, his reputation for life will be ruined!

Looking at Li Er's expression, Xu Xu knew what he was thinking.

"Your Majesty, the so-called country of etiquette and the so-called Celestial Kingdom in the Central Plains are nothing but things used by the aristocratic families who never know what hunger is to set up arches.

As the saying goes, if the granaries are full, you will know etiquette; if you have enough food and clothing, you will know honor and disgrace. If the people are not full, they will care about the country of etiquette? The word etiquette is really the biggest obstacle to wrapping up my China."

“…”

Li Shimin was so angry that he was so angry that he didn't know how to refute what Xu Xu said.

If the granaries are full, you will know etiquette. If you can’t even eat enough, how can you manage the country of etiquette?

It is indeed true that this is true, but Li Shimin felt that it was a bit wrong.

If he did this, what would be the difference with those Turkic people?

"Your Majesty, if you can't make up your mind, I have another way."

Xu Xu looked at Li Shimin's expression and guessed that Li Shimin would not be able to implement his proposal.

However, his idea was not to let Li Er do such a thing, but his next plan.

"Speak and listen."

There was no expression on Li Shimin's face. Xu Xu's previous suggestion was really unacceptable. He wanted to hear Xu Xu's second opinion, but Li Shimin felt that the second opinion would not be easy.
