Li Xiang became a little worried when he thought of this. At that time, he had not thought that anyone in Nanzhao would dare to take action. Since he came to Nanzhao, both official and civilian forces have been very friendly to him. It seems that even tigers have times when they take naps, and he actually ignored the ambitions of these people.
"There's news, Your Highness, there's news, Your Highness..."
Just when Li Xiang was frowning and thinking about the problem, Zhang Jiuli's letter came back from afar. This was the first letter Qian Ping sent back from Nanzhao. Li Xiang was a little anxious. He didn't wait for Zhang Jiuli to read it to him, but took it and read it himself.
After seeing the above situation, Li Xiang was relieved. Fortunately, he acted decisively at the time, and people like Qian Ping were capable of doing things. If there was a delay in any link in the middle, some information might have been leaked. There was one thing that surprised Li Xiang, and that was this guy Chang Sun Ze.
The reason why Li Xiang was so worried just now was not only because he was worried about Chang Sun Ze's safety, but also because he was worried that Chang Sun Ze would surrender to the enemy and commit treason. After all, this guy was a playboy and might not be able to withstand such punishment. Once he was beaten too hard, this guy might do anything.
Changsun Ze has been loyal to the Tang Dynasty for generations. If a traitor appears, it will be a disgrace to Changsun Wuji.
At that time, the cooperation between Li Xiang and Zhangsun Wuji will also be overshadowed. They handed their son to you to gild his reputation, but you didn't take good care of him. Instead, you let this kid become a traitor, causing the entire family to have no development. Why would they support you then? Even if they don't say it, they already blame you in their hearts.
Li Xiang never said it because he didn't quite believe in Chang Sun Ze's integrity. Although he had been trained in the army for some time, this guy was a latecomer after all, and was completely different from his previous subordinates. Now he really gave him a surprise.
"Come and see too."
After reading the letter, Li Xiang handed it to Zhang Jiuli. There was no problem with Zhang Jiuli's IQ, and he was also considered a counselor to Li Xiang, so letting him consult together would help to avoid mistakes when doing things.
"If you were in my position, how would you respond to Qian Ping after reading this letter?"
Zhang Jiuli had just finished reading the letter when Li Xiang's voice came over. It turned out that when Zhang Jiuli was reading the letter, Li Xiang had been paying attention to his eyes, otherwise he would not have been able to grasp it so well.
"If I were to make a decision, the current opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We also wanted to create chaos in Nanzhao, but the situation at the time wasn't suitable. The upper echelons are suspicious, and even some ordinary people are in a state of confusion. This is the perfect time for us to show our abilities. Steward Qian has enough people around him. If we miss this opportunity, we don't know what it will be in the future."
Zhang Jiuli had nothing to hide. Now that he was with Li Xiang, he had only one idea, which was to show himself as much as he could, no matter whether it was right or wrong. He had been with Li Xiang for quite some time. As long as you could offer suggestions, don't worry about the rest. As for whether it was right or wrong, Li Xiang himself had the ability to judge.
Only by making suggestions can you prove that you are a useful person. If you say nothing, why would Li Xiang keep you? There are plenty of soldiers standing guard on the side.
"Your idea is basically the same as mine. Then go write back to Qian Ping and ask him to find a way to cause trouble in the Nanzhao Royal City and try to make the major forces fight each other. As for how to cause trouble, that's his problem. Have someone escort Chang Sunze back first and send this kid directly back to the capital."
Although Li Xiang came from modern society and had heard a lot of words like everyone is equal, some people are not born equal. Take Chang Sunze for example. This guy is the young master of the Chang Sun family. How could he be the same as ordinary people?
This time, Chang Sunze had achieved merit. At least he hadn't uttered a single word. After returning to the capital, he would receive promotions and titles. This was also a way to win over Chang Sun Wuji. His son had nearly lost his life with you. If he couldn't get an official position, why would he let his son follow you? Wouldn't it be better for him to stay in the capital and live a carefree life? Even if there was no progress, at least his life would be guaranteed.
Zhang Jiuli was an official, so he naturally knew how to handle this matter. He did not bring Chang Sunze to the military camp here because he wanted to create an atmosphere of equality. He sent Chang Sunze directly back to the capital. If he had any privileges there, that would be the Chang Sun family's business and would not affect Li Xiang's reputation.
"Go and call General Su."
After Zhang Jiuli left, Li Xiang pointed at the guard next to him. Li Xiang knew Qian Ping's ability. As long as this guy was willing to do the job, the power struggle would not be difficult in his hands, and soon the entire Nanzhao Royal City might be in chaos.
Before Wang Cheng of Nanzhao causes chaos, we must be prepared. We need to gather the people who pick the fruit. If they ask us for help but we cannot provide enough troops, then the situation will be difficult to predict.
"Your Highness, are you looking for me?"
Because of the attack on Changsun Ze, Su Dingfang has been busy for a while. Although Li Xiang has set up camp here, Su Dingfang thought of Changsun Ze's incident, so he did not dare to slack off in the defense work. This guy has investigated and changed the surroundings. If Li Xiang hadn't called him, he would have asked his men to continue to expand to the surroundings.
"Don't be afraid of ropes after being bitten once. There are only a hundred or so people around Chang Sunze. It would be easy for a slightly larger force to attack him. We have thousands of soldiers around us, all coming from the battlefield. If someone wanted to attack me, wouldn't it take 20,000 people to get in? Can anyone mobilize 20,000 people without alerting any checkpoints?"
Seeing Su Dingfang's expression as if he was facing a great enemy, Li Xiang was indeed very relieved. With such men protecting him, Li Xiang could indeed sleep well at night. However, he couldn't go too far and cause panic in the entire military camp. If the news got out, people would think that he was afraid of death!
