Chapter 437: [The Infernal Affairs of the Tang Dynasty]

"Brothers, you are very good!" Li Chengqian said to them in front of Duobao team.

He added: "After you defeated the biggest foreign enemy, Tubo team, and won the championship with a mission, which is very good!"

He paused and said, "This moment of victory, especially after leading the team ten thousand games, I, as the boss, should take you to celebrate it well!"

"However, everyone Mingyao still has to have a duel with the Tubo team, so this celebration cannot be held yet because we have learned from the past... Look, Teller team!" Li Chengqian thrust his chin to the annoyed Teller team over there.

As soon as these words came out, Duobao team laughed.

"Okay, this is just a joke between our own comrades. Mingyao, we have to face the Tubo team, so we are not comrades. Everyone has to show all their strength!" Li Chengqian raised his fist and said.

"Of course, Mingyao only has a few selected brothers to participate in the competition, but the others can't run away. They have to go to watch the competition. If the competition is too intense, then it's better to get on the horse!" Li Chengqian ordered.

"Here!" said the Duobao team's incoming response.

"Ahem!" A voice sounded behind Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian looked back and saw that it was Cui's philanthropist. It seemed that he had been here for a while, but Li Chengqian was talking, so he did not disturb him.

Li Chengqian asked Coach Lin to continue to explain to the players what Yao should pay attention to, and then he walked over to talk to Philanthropist Choi.

After Cui Philanthropist gave his salute, he congratulated Li Chengqian on winning the championship.

Cui Philanthropist is afraid that he knows how this championship came about. Even if Duobao team is really strong, he still relies on external forces to win against Teller team.

"Uncle Cui praised it, thank you for this..." Li Chengqian paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Thank you, Cheng Guan team for their strong help!"

Cui philanthropist laughed haha.

The two of them laughed a few times inappropriately, and the atmosphere of speaking became strong. Cui philanthropist said in a low voice: "Your Highness, Tubo Prime Minister Lu Dongzan came to us yesterday."

When Li Chengqian heard this, what Cui philanthropist said was obviously profound, and it was also implicated when Tubo recently proposed marriage, Lu Dongzan came to the Cui family's door.

He looked at Choi's Philanthropist and expected him to continue.

As expected, Li Chengqian was not expecting, and Cui philanthropist obviously wanted to reveal something to Li Chengqian. He said: "Lu Dongzan first proposed that we could give our Cui family's caravan to enter the tribal territory of Lu Dongzan, and there were several tribal territories of the Lu Dongzan alliance, so that we could enter there to do business!"

It turns out that Lu Dongzan wants to open foreign trade privileges to the Cui family!

The Cui family is a big business family. It has been in business for hundreds of years. It is a very large consortium, and foreign trade is one of their main income.

Now that Lu Dongzan has spoken, most of the places in Tubo can let the Cui family go in to do business, so the Cui family should be happy!

But in the current situation, Philanthropist Cui is here to do good deeds again, so he took the initiative to come and tell Li Chengqian about his private communication with Lu Dongzan.

Cui Philanthropist continued: "Lu Dongzan's only request is to hope that I support them in the marriage."

Li Chengqian was stunned. It turned out that Lu Dongzan used this method!

What happened to him in his mind, such as the Changsun family?

Cui Philanthropist said: "I heard that Lu Dongzan had been to Changsun's house before, but I'm afraid the conditions are much better than mine. I wonder if your highness has heard of it?"

The question that followed was just a cover for the information he wanted to reveal to Li Chengqian. What’s important is that he told Li Chengqian that the Changsun family had benefited from it, so they actively supported the marriage!

In this way, Li Chengqian understood that, as a big family in Chang'an, the Changsun family would mobilize their family's power to retaliate against the princess for a break-up, and to promote the fire to kiss the princess? The reason they supported it was because the family could get more benefits.

The other ministers were also one family behind them, and they should have also received the benefits of Lu Dongzan, so they all stood up to support them.

This is the family, country and society that Li Chengqian has never understood since he came to the Tang Dynasty.

When family comes first and country, every minister considers his interests, he first considers his family and then considers his country. When the interests of the family and the country conflict, they will fight against the country for the interests of the family! Many rebellions in the Tang Dynasty happened under this idea.

Speaking of the marriage of the two countries, not only is the temporary alliance between the two countries, but the big families in those countries are afraid that they can get a lot of benefits from it. Therefore, marriage of the country can sometimes suffer losses, but the big families can make a lot of money.

Therefore, as long as the marriage can be taken advantage of by the big family, they will still stand up and support it.

Lu Dongzan has now started to move and is constantly promising the benefits of the big family. The ministers who stood up have proved this.

But Li Chengqian would never see this happening, and he should not sell his eldest sister for the sake of profit!

"Thank you, Uncle Cui, for your reminder!" Li Chengqian bowed to Cui's philanthropist. If he hadn't come to reveal the news to Li Chengqian, he wouldn't have known.

Cui philanthropist waved his hand and said, "Your Highness, you have to be polite, this is what the old minister should do."

"Chengqian remembers this love for Uncle Cui!" Li Chengqian said seriously again.

Cui philanthropist told Li Chengqian this news, which showed that he did not accept the benefits of Lu Dongzan. He used Tubo's foreign trade interests to exchange for Li Chengqian's favor, and Li Chengqian naturally had to give him a promise.

Cui Philanthropist smiled and said goodbye to Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian touched his chin and began to think about the balance between the power of both sides in the kinship incident. It seemed that the power supported by the side was greater, while the power of Li Chengqian was weaker.

Perhaps Li Chengqian is not weak, but because of the temptation and motivation of this matter, he is weaker than Lu Dongzan's side. Lu Dongzan took out his foreign trade power in Tubo, and the ministers who got the benefits were afraid that they would put their strength to support him. As for Li Chengqian, there seemed to be no good things to ask other ministers to help him. Even if Li Chengqian could move one or two in, there was no benefit. If he did, he would not necessarily put all his efforts into it!

After a while, Li Chengqian put his hand off his chin and followed Lao Long to the spy institute.
