Journey to the West: At the beginning, Li Er was mistaken for his father

It is a pure loss-making business.

According to Li Xiudao's calculations, Datang would no longer be able to afford this kind of continuous consumption of national power in only two to thirty years.

We had to give up the previous decades of investment and evacuate first.

On the other hand, Silla can easily follow Datang and seize the three thousand miles of beautiful rivers and mountains.

What Datang can get is to let out a sigh of relief, and to solve the threat of Goguryeo.

If you calculate it seriously, it's actually not a loss, but in general, it's still not as good as the huge effort you put in to prepare for the battle.

Of course, that is only looking at solving problems from the perspective of ordinary people.

But now, Datang has more Li Xiudao, and has the support of Tianting and Lingshan.

Even the dragons from all over the world took the initiative to vote.

If this cannot completely bring this territory under control and link luck together, it will be a complete joke.

It's just a piece of paper, so naturally it can't summarize all the situations in it, and there are more details that can't be known until you have seen it in person.

Looking at the toddler in front of him who was not as high as his knees, Li Xiudao smiled.

"It turns out that this time the King of Silla sent his nephew Jin Chunqiu to come to Chang'an to settle down and study..."

Silla was far away from the Central Plains, and its civilization was developed very late, and many tribal traditions still remain.

These, in the matter of bone products, are most vividly expressed.

Silla respected blood and bones, which was stricter than the nine-rank Zhongzheng system that prevailed in the Central Plains before.

Unless there is a sacred bone, there is no right to inherit the throne at all. This is what the royal family deliberately did to prevent others from seizing power.
It is thought that keeping the blood pure, there is no shortage of things that violate ethics.

However, it's a pity...

So far, although Silla's national power is thriving, it is very difficult for the blood of the descendants.

The current king of Silla is already the only sacred bone.

She was never married and had no children, so it was naturally impossible for her to pass on the holy bones.

And the bone product closest to her, that is, the nephew Jin Chunqiu who was actually sent to Chang'an as a proton this time, is also inferior, it is only a real bone, not a sacred bone that can inherit the throne.

"It seems that when the Queen of Silla dies, there will be some competition in Silla.

Perhaps, this is also her original intention of sending her nephew to Chang'an. "

Li Xiudao silently made a judgment.

When the sacred bone king is exhausted, there will naturally be countless ambitious people who want to take advantage of the situation.

Because the predecessor was a combination of tribal alliances, the throne was rotated among several holy bones.

It was only when the Jin family was powerful and united vertically and horizontally, and the bloodlines of the other surnames were cut off, that the throne was passed down firmly within the Jin family.

It can be said that the Kim family's throne has not been so stable from the very beginning, and it is not necessarily for members of their family to assume it.

Compared with Jin's bloodline, the level of bone quality is a more justifiable confidence.

Today's King of Silla, relying on his undoubted identity as a sacred bone, can openly suppress the plotters in Silla.

However, if she dies, the rationale for Jin's bloodline becoming king will be gone immediately.

In the past, it was not a holy bone that could not become a king, but now everyone is a real bone, so why can it only fall in your house.

As the saying goes, the emperor takes turns to do it, and it is really fair to come to my house today.

So even though the Queen of Silla is still young now, she has to start thinking about planning for her funeral.

Form an alliance with Datang and send his nephew here as a proton.

It's not as simple as just wanting to use the military power of the Tang Dynasty to sweep Baekje and Goguryeo.

He even hopes that his own line of the Jin family, not Silla, can establish a friendly ally relationship with Datang.

The difference between the two is not a star.

After the death of Queen Seondeok, Jin Chunqiu, who is a descendant of the royal family and now has the support of Tang Dynasty, has sufficient strength to suppress all injustices in the country.

Now, if Jin Chunqiu is left in Silla, he will become the center of the vortex in the battle for the throne, surrounded by tigers and wolves, he may not be able to grow up safely.

Sending it to Chang'an, thousands of miles away, seemed difficult, but those people in Silla also couldn't extend their hands to Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty.

This is her real calculation of killing birds with one stone.

It was just a mere step, not only selling Datang well, but also taking care of everything behind him.

At this moment, under Li Xiudao's insightful eyes, he could see that under the protection of the Chang'an Qiyun Golden Dragon, the aura of this young boy gradually stabilized, not as chaotic as before.

It is even faintly showing signs of rising, extending and connecting with the most eastern position.

of course.

It is impossible to hide these obvious little thoughts from Li Er, who initiated the Xuanwu Gate Change and directly snatched the throne from Prince Li Jiancheng.

With just one glance, he calculated it and saw it clearly.

If it was before, he might really have no better choice.

Jin Chunqiu, who grew up in Datang since he was a child, became the king of Silla, and it was better than other unrelated strangers...

But... now...

Tapping the armrest of the dragon chair lightly with his fingers, Li Er's eyes gradually lit up, and he took it seriously.

"Your Silla respects bones, and the one who can ascend to the throne must be a sacred bone, right?"

Li Er looked at the envoy who took the initiative to stand behind Jin Chunqiu after submitting the documents with a smile, and asked leisurely.

"Then you see, my Tang royal family, what kind of bones should the blood be counted as?!"

The envoy was taken aback for a moment, apparently he did not expect that Li Er would ask this question all of a sudden.

However, to be selected as an envoy, one must have clear hands and eyes, and give eloquence to the generation.

Without even thinking about it, the envoy gave the answer himself.

"The Great Tang is a kingdom of heaven, and His Majesty's bloodline is naturally higher than my royal family of Silla.

Perhaps, it can be called...'Heavenly Bone'? ! "

What he said was sincere, without any falsehood.

Datang is the most prosperous place in Nanzhan Buzhou, and even in the entire Earth Immortal Realm, where the development of humanity is the most prosperous.

Land, population, culture, which one is not more than a hundred times better than Silla.

Silla, by contrast, is just a rural country bumpkin.

As a matter of fact, the Silla envoy already felt hot-faced and embarrassed when the Tang imperial family was only rated as a "heavenly bone" that was one level higher than the "sacred bone".

but……

Li Er was not too serious about what he thought in his heart, he just wanted to use his mouth to say this sentence.

"Since that's the case, then it's even better!"

Li Er clapped his palms and laughed, then pointed at Li Xiudao, who was standing tall and tall in the palace, with a big wave of his hand,
"Queen Sundeok of Silla is very old, she is not yet married, and it happens that my beloved son is not engaged yet.

Let me decide, how about a marriage? ! "
