According to Li Xiang's idea, he withdrew a series of preferential conditions. According to Li You's character, he would definitely come to him to cause trouble, but there was no sound from the other side. Can a man like Li You sleep at night without a woman by his side?
"You are underestimating the King of Qi. He is not someone who cannot live without women."
When Li Xiang was thinking about this problem, he suddenly remembered that he had violated the rules this time. In the past, Li Xiang could openly say that there was no such thing, but now his wife was beside him. Although Li Xiang arrived in the Western Regions first, Cheng Luan came later, so Li Xiang did not live in the military camp.
"I really underestimated my fifth uncle. He used to be so arrogant and domineering in Chang'an City. Every day he either robbed the daughters of this family or bought the courtesan of that family. He was considered a disgrace to the entire imperial family. Today, for the sake of his own life, he really didn't want a woman anymore."
To be honest, Li Xiang really envied Lao Wu's life. If he were to choose again, he would also choose that life. Isn't this the purpose of rebirth? Although he might not have the chance to ascend to the throne in the future, as long as he behaved himself and didn't cause trouble, could the next emperor still kill such a person?
The emperor would only choose to deal with those who are threatening, such as Li Tai and Li Zhi, who think about becoming the emperor every day. Whoever becomes the emperor will have to find a place to settle them. But Li You is different. He is just fooling around. As the emperor's son, the more foolish he is, the less likely he is to arouse the suspicion of the next crown prince, and he may even be let off.
Are there not many such cases in history? After Emperor Qianlong ascended the throne, his younger brother was constantly misbehaving at home, but didn't Emperor Qianlong turn a blind eye? Later, when some ministers reported him to the emperor, Emperor Qianlong simply ignored him.
When you are in the royal family, you have to learn to be a good person. The fifth brother probably thought so too. Li Xiang originally thought that this guy would come over to cause trouble, but he didn't come, so Li Xiang had to take some other actions.
"Let's think about it tomorrow. It's already late tonight."
Cheng Luan has been here for several days, but he is still not used to the weather here. Fortunately, he is still strong. If something goes wrong, Li Xiang will have to arrange for someone to send Cheng Luan back. They are newlyweds, and if they are separated like this, Li Xiang will feel a little uncomfortable.
Listening to the sound of his wife sleeping beside him, Li Xiang's brain started working again. At dawn the next morning, all kinds of rumors reached Li You.
What about the most beautiful woman in the Western Regions, and some specialties of the Western Regions? In addition, the countries in the Western Regions fear us like a tiger. Li Xiang has already received tribute from more than a dozen beauties. If Li You can go there, the countries in the Western Regions will worship him as their own.
If the hard approach doesn't work, we'll try the soft approach. There are plenty of ways anyway. When Eunuch Han heard the rumors around him, he was immediately shocked.
He knew his little master too well. If he didn't speak, he would seem pretty good, after all, his parents were both good-looking. But if he spoke, you would immediately know what he liked, which was wine, sex, money and power.
At the beginning, Li You also thought it was unlikely, but when he thought about the wonderful life he had in the past few days, especially those beautiful beauties from the Western Regions, it was said that those given to him were the ones left over by others. If he were to visit the various countries in the Western Regions, he would find that there were beauties everywhere.
In addition to this, Li You is also concerned about money. In order to survive, the countries in the Western Regions are eager to have connections with the upper echelons of the Tang Dynasty. If someone like Li You goes there, then the countries in the Western Regions may open their treasuries and let Li You choose.
Anyone with a brain would know that these words were not true, but Li You's brain was not enough. When he heard these words, he began to waver.
During this morning, Li You called in everyone around him for questioning, mostly about the customs and habits of the Western Regions, as well as the military strength of the various countries in the Western Regions.
Li Xiang also knew one of Li You's shortcomings, which was that he had been a bit unwilling to admit defeat since he was a child. Although he was acting very naughty now, he still wanted to achieve some achievements. This time he came to the Western Regions, he couldn't be without any tools. If he could bring some back, he would be able to shut up the people in Chang'an City.
Li Xiang also asked someone to spread the word that as long as Li You could visit the countries in the Western Regions and find an opportunity to contain them, then the current situation could be resolved. After all, the situation is deadlocked here. Although the countries in the Western Regions are afraid of Li Xiang, they are not afraid enough to conclude a treaty. We cannot attack them directly. If we attack them directly, once it provokes strong resistance from the countries in the Western Regions, we will be the ones to be killed.
In short, all kinds of rumors have only one result, which is to see what Li You does. If he can change everything that exists now, then this credit will definitely be indispensable. For an adult prince, who doesn't want to have a credit to rely on?
Li You also knew that he had no chance of becoming emperor, but if he had such a merit, no matter who inherited the throne, even if they wanted to prosecute him in the future, they would have to take this merit into consideration. After all, he had made contributions to the entire Tang Dynasty. If you did not have solid evidence, it would be difficult to bring down such a prince.
"Go ask the people around him to find out which countries he's going to visit and what kind of work he needs to do along the way."
When Eunuch Han came to Li You, he suddenly gave him such a task. Eunuch Han's face was full of disappointment. It was obvious that someone was tempting you. I saw you endured it for a whole night yesterday, and I thought you had learned it. I didn't expect that it was a person that day.
"Your Highness, we really can't go to the Western Regions. If something happens..."
"What could possibly happen? You're such a coward! I didn't come to the West just to enjoy myself. The soldiers are fighting for the entire Tang Dynasty. Am I a coward?"
Li You's words were also said with righteousness, but only Eunuch Han knew in his heart that if you didn't want to make a fortune and snatch beautiful women, could you say this?
