Chapter 66 Clan

Just as the Eastern Palace was being arranged in full swing, the county prince’s mansion was singing and dancing, filled with a heart-wrenching and desolate sound.

"Chengfan, how can I get here today?"

In broad daylight, Li Xiaogong was dressed in cool clothes, exposed his chest, revealing a large piece of black hair, and was drinking happily while enjoying the singing and dancing in front of him.

(Li Xiaogong (591-640), whose courtesy name was Xiaogong, was from Chengji, Longxi (now Qin'an County, Gansu Province). He was a royal family member of the Tang Dynasty, famous general, the great-grandson of Li Hu, one of the eight pillar states of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the grandson of Li Wei, the general of Shuozhou, Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the son of Li An, the right-leading general of the Sui Dynasty.)

"Xiao Gong, I am not as leisurely as you, singing and dancing, drinking and having fun, this day..."

While shaking his head, Li Daozong took the wine glass handed over by his maid and drank it all in one go.

(Li Daozong (602-653), whose courtesy name was Chengfan, was from Chengji, Longxi (now Qin'an County, Gansu Province). He was a royal family member and an important general in the early Tang Dynasty. He was the great-grandson of Li Hu, the great-grandson of Li Hu, the governor of Liangzhou, Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the son of Li Shao (postally titled) and the cousin of Li Yuan, the Emperor Gaozu of Tang Dynasty. He was close friends with Li Xiaogong.)

"hey-hey……"

Li Xiaogong smiled, neither of them spoke, and looked at the singing and dancing in front of them.

After the dance, Li Xiaogong waved his hand, and all the dancers and singers retreated one after another, leaving only two alone.

At this time, the expressions of the two men also became serious.

"It's been almost a month."

Li Daozong, who spoke first.

"kindness."

If the two spoke in this way, they would probably be confused if outsiders heard it. However, they were friends for more than ten years. They had carried guns together, played with women together, and even became brother-in-laws. They knew everything they were thinking in their hearts.

"The East Palace is moving more and more. It's time for us to express our opinions."

Li Daozong said slowly.

"Yes, abolishing the equal-field system, taking the lead in suppressing grain prices, and offering hybrid rice... are all big deals." Li Xiaogong picked up the wine glass and rotated slowly.

"Hehe, there's something new recently... Don't tell me that Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling have never come to see you."

Li Daozong smiled.

"Why haven't you ever found it? Changsun Wuji left, and Fang Xuanling came. The first one said he wanted to drive away the civilians, let us cooperate to suppress the land prices and eat the mud-legged fields." Li Xiaogong sneered, "The one behind came again to tell me that the person from the East Palace was going to build a city in the East China Sea, each one was stronger than the other."

"What, do you think the person from the East Palace is lying?"

Li Daozong knew Li Xiaogong well, but he was very interested in his statement.

"It's not like lying to others. I just look down on the methods. I don't want to squeeze out those mud legs and peel off the little things left in the mud legs to give them to us. What's the point? At that time, public anger will be everywhere. We are going to suppress them. If we force those mud legs to survive, I'll see how he ends up."

"Haha, you are a typical person who is good at getting cheap." Li Daozong laughed, "I see that your family has robbed the most land outside the city. Others are still watching. Your family is good. As soon as Changsun Wuji drove away the mud legs, you grinned and bitten... Now you still bite back and said that the East Palace is not authentic, is there anyone like you? You really careless about making friends, I have to stay away from you."

"If you look down on me, you should take what you should take. If someone gives you something, wouldn't you give me face if you don't take it? If you say that they are also the prince, they will have to have dinner under their hands in the future."

"Your words are rough or not."

The two laughed loudly at the same time and drank it all in one go.

"So, have you promised to be the prince's thigh on the list?"

"Otherwise, what else do you want to do?"

"How much is going to be cast in the new city?" Li Daozong leaned on the chair and relaxed after hearing Li Xiaogong's previous words.

"I invest as much as I can. Such a good way to make money is obviously given to us by people. However, my family is poor, at most, only 200,000 yuan. Unlike you, a rich man."

Li Xiaogong glanced at Li Daozong.

"Haha, there are so many people who have money, and there are so many people who need to share. If I spend too much, I will spend less. Let's give the opportunity to others."

The two exchanged opinions on [Hongwei New City], and then the topic unknowingly moved to Li Jing and Xu Maogong. Like Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong, they were both firm and neutral camps during the Xuanwu Gate Incident. Now that they have made a decision, they are inevitably more concerned about their attitudes towards the two families, who are both senior leaders of the Tang Dynasty military.

"Li Jing and Xu Maogong have made some moves recently."

Li Daozong said slowly.

"Two days before the Xuanwu Gate Incident, Li Shimin hesitated and asked Li Jing, the governor of Lingzhou, whom he supported. At that time, Li Jing remained silent. Then he asked Xu Mao, the chief marching chief. Xu Mao said at that time, "This is the family affairs of you, King Qin and the prince, King Qi. I am an outsider. There is no grass by the river and you don't have to talk too much. I hate Li Shimin's teeth..."

Li Xiaogong grabbed the breast hair and smiled.

"Where did you come from this news? Why didn't I know?"

Li Daozong asked curiously.

"Don't worry about where the news comes from." Li Xiaogong waved impatiently.

Seeing Li Xiaogong like this, Li Daozong was not angry. He took a sip of wine and continued to talk to himself.

"Li Jing's uncle is Han Qinhu, and he made great achievements in assisting you, Li Xiaogong, to conquer Jiangnan. You, Li Xiaogong, are suspicious of your great achievements, so you went to Chang'an City to live in vain and drink and have fun every day. It seems to be free, but in fact you were under house arrest in different ways... After losing you, Li Xiaogong, Li Jing was actually the head of the Southern Army. But the emperor was not at ease with him, so he sent him to Lingzhou to become the governor, and asked Li Jing to move his nest and stay away from his sphere of influence."

"It seems that Li Jing and Li Shimin actually have very little interaction. On the contrary, Li Jing was born in Guanlong, and his group generally supported the Eastern Palace. He should be more aware of Li Jiancheng and would not hold Li Shimin's thigh at all. Some people say that Li Shimin once saved Li Jing's life, so Li Jing was grateful. In fact, Li Shimin was just one of the many people who helped Li Jing speak. This is why when Li Shimin went to find Li Jing, he remained silent. Xiaogong, what I said is right?"

After Li Daozong finished speaking, he looked at Li Xiaogong, who blew up and grinned.
