Chapter 674 Relatives are coming

The Li family in Longxi is a very large family. From the turbulent times of Xiliang Li Hao to the turbulent times of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the population of the Li family has increased exponentially. After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, it became a royal family and has further developed and grown in the past few decades, so the people have the saying that "Li is famous for Longxi".

When the emperor held a birthday party, in addition to civil and military officials and foreign envoys, the old and small families of the royal family also came to Luoyang in advance. In order to arrange these men, Xiao Rui, as the minister of the Honglu Temple, was exhausted as a dead dog.

However, those who are more eye-opening must also say that the "big gifts" they gave, such as the King of Longxi and others, all the goods they gave were priceless, and some people gave were just the right things. The funniest thing is that they actually brought pecans and sheep. The gap between the rich and the poor of each royal family is different, so Li Chengqian did not pick on these things, and his intentions were not measured by the price.

But when Xiao Rui was petitioning the royal family, Li Chengqian was shocked. He felt that these guys were really crying for poverty. They hoped that the emperor would take care of his life for the sake of the same ancestors and clans, and not to be uneven in numbers. Why were those people either high-ranking officials or outstanding titles, but everyone wanted to suffer in the bitter and cold places of Longxi and Jinyang!

Okay, they are old and can't live for a few years. They will be filial to their ancestors and loyal to the Tang Dynasty. They will suffer a little. But why are they wasted their great years in the mountains? Not to mention the distant ones, just talk about the brothers Li Jinghuan and Li Chongyi who returned from Liaodong. If they were not taken care of by the prince, would they be able to become the governor of the navy with their abilities?

The Tang Dynasty was always the ruler of the Li family, so it would be fine if they were the two younger generations, after all, they were their own people. But there were so many shortcomings and so many important positions in the capital and the world. Who could work hard for the Tian family with sincerity and diligence? It is said that the wealth of water does not leave the land of outsiders. If you take advantage of others, it is better to benefit your own people, right?

After reading this petition book, Li Chengqian shook his head in disappointment. Some people are not very capable, but they are quite jealous, and they are just ashamed of others to make meritorious contributions and receive rewards. Seeing that the world is nothing and the country has settled down, they come out to talk about family affection. With this small mind, how big can they have and what kind of benefits can they create for the country and the people of the world.

Take care of it? How to take care of it? From the appointment of officials from Zhenguan to the establishment of the North and South yamen, how many opportunities did the royal family give it, but how much appreciation did it be? What did you say that you can't endure so much, and bury the identity of the royal family. Fart, I am still the crown prince of the dynasty, and you still have to work hard and tiring. How can you live a noble life?

This is not over yet. In order to give more opportunities to the royal family, the Eastern Palace will specifically lower the requirements for recruiting a group of royal family members when recruiting soldiers at the Sixth Route. But even so, they still don’t attract people. They dislike the Sixth Route as a field force and often rush to the front line. If their son dies, wouldn’t it be that the white-haired man sends the black-haired man?

I both complain about this and that, and now I am crowded with grievances and making jokes. According to Xiao Rui, these are really ugly and have lost all the face of the royal family. If this situation is not improved, if I make a fool of myself on the day of the banquet, the Tang Dynasty will become a laughing stock in the country. Alas, there are too many relatives and there are many right and wrong, and this is true.

After handing the handbook to Changsun Chong, Li Chengqian rubbed his swollen head and turned his head to Xiao Rui and said, "Brother-in-law, the emperor's family also has poor relatives. This is not new. If I give me some gifts and dissuade them, I will be fine if I don't see you or not, I will not be upset."

"Your Highness, this may not work. Not to mention that they were invited by Your Majesty, in order to show the harmony between the royal family and the whole nation. If Your Highness sends them away, what will happen if Your Majesty wants someone when he turns back!

Besides, the kings of the vassal state have also arrived in recent days. Your Highness knows very well what their virtues are. At that time, it is inevitable that there will be troubles. Therefore, I am foolish at your opinion that Your Highness will still be comforted if you can, otherwise they will have to throw it to you. It will be more than worth the loss!"

Xiao Rui was right. He was not afraid of no good things, but fear of no good people. Good people often died at the hands of witnesses. Those bastards would use the incident of Wude Ninth Year indirectly when they were not satisfied. They also highly praised the emperor for his "righteous act" of swearing to never harm his brothers and sisters in Taimiao, which made people difficult to attack when they wanted to hit them.

Moreover, while the court issued an order to commend the Li Jinghuan brothers who returned from conquering Liaodong, he also dealt with the King of Han, demoted him from the prince to the Duke of the State, and sent him to Guizhou without orders. Such a stall should indeed "benevolence makes money"!

After closing the notebook, Changsun Chong answered the words: "Your Highness, no matter what the purpose is, you can forget about the sweet mouth! Guan'er should not think about it. Now the imperial court mainly employs people in imperial examinations and military merits, and the number of people who recommend favors is reduced year by year. This gap cannot be opened in the Eastern Palace!

Moreover, when Jinyang raised an army, these guys were afraid that the rebellion would fall on their heads, so they all hid far away. Now they came to fight Qiufeng and get cheap. Can such a fence-branded man be trusted at the critical moment? It would be great if they didn't turn against each other in the face of the battle.

Besides, since ancient times, the emperor's power has not been protected by most of the ministers of the opposite sex. If their accent is spread to the ears of heroes and soldiers, it will be heart-wrenching. Isn't this apart from the king and his subjects?"

Changsun Chong and Xiao Rui's words make sense. For these people, they have to do a lot of effort on the surface, but they have to be careful at all times. Judging from the past military and political affairs, these people are completely unreliable and are all people who only take advantage of the situation but not suffer losses. In other words, they are reincarnated in the Li family, and they can't help but open their mouths. They don't have to worry about their livelihood, otherwise they will not be worthy of being a follower.

It seems that they have to treat them to a "big banquet" to seal their mouths, otherwise some people will question their abilities and blow the yin and yang wind from the emperor, especially in the harem, some people are already paving the way for their sons.

I really think that old guy is invincible and no one dares to move. If you fight with real swords and guns, you don’t know who will win or lose. You are even bigger than Li Ke and Li Tai. Who gave her a bad idea? Isn’t this asking for death?

It's really funny. Even if I'm gone, if Empress Changsun and Changsun Wuji are still alive, will the throne be on his turn? Li Chengqian's evaluation of this ridiculous idea is only eight words: delusional, and I don't know what it means.

"Okay, my brother-in-law will make arrangements. I will treat them tonight. I have come all the way. It is too rude to not see each other."...
