When he saw Li You, Li Xiang felt that it was fortunate that this guy did not take on a big responsibility. If he had been given something more important, this guy would have cheated Datang.
What makes Li Xiang strange is that Xiao Shougui also comes from a noble family, but his endurance is still very good. He looks like a weak scholar, but whether he eats or drinks, he is about the same as a soldier, and his body is
No problems yet.
"I've already had someone take a look at my uncle's body. He's really not suitable for a quick march in a short period of time. It's better to keep him here for the time being and wait until he's well before going."
Xiao Shougui is relatively concerned about Li You. During this period, he is responsible for calling the doctor and getting medicine. However, the local doctors are limited in their skills. They have prescribed some medicine but are not getting better after taking it. He can only wait for the imperial doctor from Chang'an City.
.
According to Li Xiang's idea, this guy should be sent directly back to the capital and let him continue to live a good life in the capital. He does not belong to the front line at all, but thinking of Li Shimin's thoughts, Li Xiang still tolerated this.
, if Li You is sent back to Chang'an, it may be replaced by Li Tai, which will be even more difficult.
"You write a note with him, and then send someone to Chang'an as quickly as possible. Just leave him here first, and you and I can go forward together."
Li Xiang thought for a while and said, Li Xiang and Xiao Shougui have known each other for a long time. Li Xiang thinks that Xiao Shougui is still very useful. It just so happens that he may be useful in this trip to the Western Regions. As for Li You,
He himself is not willing to go west, but he himself is full of joy if he can cultivate here.
It was exactly what Li Xiang thought. Xiao Shougui went to communicate with Li You first. After all, Li You didn't want to meet Li Xiang. When they met, Li You pretended to sleep with Li Xiang and didn't bother to go to his place again. He was his uncle again.
Li Xiang, who is also a prince, must salute when he enters.
"The prince has agreed to recuperate here for the time being. However, the prince has expressed his desire to go to the northwest, which is still under memorial."
Xiao Shougui took out Li You's memorial. When Li Xiang saw what it said, he wished he could vomit out last night's overnight meal. If you really want to go to the northwest, you can go there even though you are sick. It's not really bad.
serious.
"Let's pack up and set off tomorrow morning. We should leave fifty guards for this guy, plus his own people, so there should be no problem."
Li Xiang lazily met with Li You, and after making arrangements, he went back to his tent and chatted with his wife. Wouldn't it be a better thing? Why waste time with this guy Li Xiang.
People in the military camp also discovered this time that when Li Xiang went out to march in the past, he spent most of his time riding around to see what was going on around him, but this time he spent most of his time in the tent.
, maybe because of his new marriage, Li Xiang also felt a little bit inseparable from his little wife.
Every time he saw Li Xiang, Cheng Luan was a little anxious, mainly because Li Xiang was so troublesome. It was fine when he was marching on the road, but when he arrived at the station, this was the time for Cheng Luan to take revenge.
Cheng Luan also thought that there would be someone to share the burden, but when he came out of Chang'an City, except for his own bodyguard, no one else was with him.
These female guards can do some rough work, but their appearance is really unflattering, so even if they were willing to take concubines for Li Xiang, Li Xiang would probably not be willing to do so.
Fortunately, he broke camp and moved forward the next morning, and Li Xiang didn't worry too much that night. After all, he still had to consider the future.
Li Xiang led three thousand elite troops to march in front, and Cheng Luan led his forty guards to follow. Originally, Cheng Luan could have followed Li Xiang on horseback, but because of what happened last night, he had to ride today.
There's a carriage.
As for Qi King Li You, this guy didn't even leave the house. When he learned that Li Xiang was on his way, he was instantly overjoyed and asked his men to go out to serve food and drinks. He didn't look like he was sick at all.
Originally, Xiao Shougui was beside him, and he wanted to demonstrate. Now that annoying Xiao Shougui has gone, not to mention how happy he is in his heart. There are still people in charge of Chang'an City, and now there is no one in charge of such a small place. He is alone.
The prince of the imperial court is the highest in the land and can do whatever he wants.
Li Xiang's men naturally reported Li You's situation, and Li Xiang didn't care about this guy. As long as he didn't kill people and set fires, and was willing to have fun in the local area, he would save himself trouble on the front line.
If Li Shimin knew about Li You's situation, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood. Originally, I asked you to go to the front line to watch Li Xiang, which was considered to be a personal development opportunity for you. Who knew that you were incompetent, and you found this opportunity?
He stayed halfway, but he really couldn't help him.
After getting rid of these troubles, Li Xiang also started a rapid march. Although these three thousand people were not Li Xiang's men, some of them had fought with Li Xiang in Tuyuhun before, so they still had a very clear idea of Li Xiang's character.
, they all went into battle lightly and headed northwest with all their strength.
Through some merchants on the road, I learned that Gaochang has not yet allowed the Western Regions Allied Forces to enter. It seems that the senior officials of Gaochang State still understand that whether it is the Tang Army or the Western Regions Allied Forces, if they are allowed to come in, it will always be a mess on their own territory.
When they were still more than three hundred miles away from Gaochang, Su Dingfang's memorial was intercepted by Li Xiang.
The person who delivered the letter was Su Dingfang's personal soldier, who had also met Li Xiang before.
"Your Highness, I set out seven days ago. There were already sporadic exchanges of fire. Our army has reached the western border of Gaochang. The Western Region Allied Forces have directly shown that they are our enemies."
Li Xiang stopped reading the memorial, and of course asked the living person in front of him.
According to Li Xiang's original thinking, the Western Region Allied Forces should only be a threat. As long as they saw Datang's promise not to march, they might go back. However, from the words of the man in front of him, Li Xiang felt that it was not that simple.
"You mean they've broken with us?"
Xiao Shougui said a little strangely. According to his idea, the countries in the Western Regions still respected Li Shimin as the Khan of Heaven, so how could they just break up?
"My lord, it's better for you to face reality. The countries in the Western Regions have never truly surrendered to the Tang Dynasty..."
After hearing what the soldier said, Xiao Shougui's face felt a little hot. It seemed that he was still living in a fantasy.
