Chapter 916: News from the Fuso people

"Don't worry, Your Highness. These Fuso people are not good people. Even though they are respectful to us, our family members along the coast have heard that without proper documentation, these people will sneak in at night and rob our coastal people."

Speaking of these Fuso people, the reason why the Cui family did not suffer losses at their hands was because of Li Xiang's warning. If it were not for Li Xiang's warning, they would have suffered a lot now. Li Xiang got angry when he heard this. I am busy now, but I didn't expect that you bastards would take action first.

According to Li Xiang's original idea, it would take several hundred years before these Fusang people dared to cause trouble along our coast. I didn't expect that they would happen again now. Could it be because of this famine? There is no record of such an incident in history.

"They have pirates coming. What about our casualties?"

Li Xiang said anxiously that this concerns the lives of our people, and this loophole cannot be opened. The Fuso people are a group of desperate criminals. If they take advantage of the benefits while robbing the coast, these people will definitely spread the news after returning, and the coastal areas will become even more dangerous.

"There aren't many people, just a few dozen. It seems there was a strong wind at sea this time. The wind was so strong that it was immeasurable. I heard from people in the family that many houses in Fusang were blown down, and the water was rushing onto the shore. They had almost no food harvest over there, and tens of thousands of people had starved to death. That's why they took the risk and came to us."

Lord Cui didn't know what this was called, but Li Xiang knew it very well. Even children in today's society understand what is going on. This must have been caused by a typhoon, coupled with a tsunami or something like that, so Fuso had no harvest.

There is not much arable land in Fusang, and natural disasters are frequent, so the local people do not live well. This is also one of the reasons why Li Xiang has never targeted them. The main reason is that there is no benefit in conquering them. There are so many good places on the land, why should he use his energy there first?

But this all has a big premise, that is, you Japanese people don't seek trouble. Now you actually dare to attack our coastal people. This means you are the ones who are looking for trouble first. No matter how we play with you, it's all your own fault.

"Your Highness, it's almost time. Although we don't need to go to the palace to welcome the bride, we must at least show up. There are many Nanzhao people outside, all coming to watch the ceremony."

When talking about Fuso, Li Xiang immediately became interested. Qian Ping looked at the sun outside. The palace guards were about to win the person back. We have to go outside and wait. We have to give them face. Even though we are the Celestial Empire, we can't go too far. We have to give them the face they deserve.

Li Xiang then realized that now was not the time to talk about this, and Fuso's shipbuilding capacity was limited. Even if someone came, there would definitely not be many people, and they would be able to react in time. What's more, our navy already has the ability to go on expeditions. Originally, we wanted to let the navy come to the south first. If the Fuso people really want to die, we don't mind practicing on them first.

Li Xiang stood up and put his hands behind his back. Qian Ping and a few others came over immediately and helped Li Xiang tidy up his clothes. Li Xiang represented the entire Tang Empire at the moment. His clothes must be extremely luxurious and there must not be a single wrinkle. If there was one, it would mean that they were incompetent. If nothing happened, they would be fine. But if the Tang Empire suffered unwarranted accusations because of this, all the eunuchs responsible would be executed.

In the face of the majesty of a country, the lives of a few eunuchs are really nothing, including the chief eunuch Qian Ping.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."

Qian Ping's ability to shout is impeccable, as he has been practicing for a long time. Every eunuch wants to be able to shout in the hall, but Qian Ping does not have this ability now. In the capital of the Tang Dynasty, Wang Decai is the number one eunuch. Qian Ping will have this opportunity only after Li Chengqian ascends the throne.

A lot of people had gathered outside the guesthouse. After hearing Qian Ping's voice, dozens of guards shouted loudly, just like a loudspeaker. Everyone outside knelt down in unison. They also knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty was extremely noble and much greater than their king.

The princess has already boarded the sedan chair from the palace and is now being carried here. The reception hall is not too far away and it will take about an incense stick of time to get here.

If it was only the princess's sedan chair, it should have arrived by now, but there were also sedan chairs of the princes and ministers of the Nanzhao Kingdom following behind. If all these people had to move together, it would take much longer, so Li Xiang had to wait patiently at this moment.

When Li Xiang stood at the designated position, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance. Although those people had not reported yet, Li Xiang understood that the princess was coming. This was all rehearsed before. As long as the princess arrived at the designated position, people from all places would come back to report. Li Xiang would then know how long it would take and what preparations to make at what time. This was also what Li Xiang needed to do. He could not let down at the critical moment.

Although the people of Nanzhao were all kneeling, those in front naturally did not dare to look up, but some people in the back also wanted to look up. They had no chance to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Empire, and this could be said to be their only chance.

After seeing the imposing Li Xiang, some people were filled with admiration in their hearts. He was indeed the third most important figure in the Tang Dynasty. He was much more prestigious than the young talents in Wangcheng, especially his aura, which surpassed even the young talents in Wangcheng.

"Her Royal Highness Princess Yongning of Nanzhao..."

The voices of Nanzhao officials could be heard in the distance. Li Xiang put his hands behind his back and waited for the princess to arrive. The people around him had not received any orders to stand up, so they could only continue to kneel there. As for their desire to watch the princess's wedding ceremony, they could only watch it with their ears. If anyone looked up at this time, the army standing on both sides would not joke around and would take him down immediately.

The Nanzhao Kingdom did not use red veils. Li Xiang saw his young wife at first sight. She was truly stunningly beautiful...
