Chapter 1085
Regarding the current situation in Great Tang, Li Xueyan was also very concerned.
After all, her biological father was still in Great Tang.
When Qin Mu was free, he would come to the harem to see Li Xueyan and her daughter.
Little Ali was in her swaddling clothes, only staring with big eyes, looking around curiously.
As soon as Qin Mu arrived, he would pick up little Ali and go to the garden to look at all kinds of flowers and plants.
Li Xueyan accompanied them.
It was rare for the family of three to stroll leisurely together.
"Husband, I heard that in Great Tang, the imperial court and the clans are currently at loggerheads?"
Usually, Li Xueyan would never ask about state affairs.
Bringing it up this time was also because she was worried about her parents in her heart.
With the struggle between the imperial court and the clans, she didn't know which side her parents would stand on.
Li Xueyan's father, Li Daozong, was also a member of the imperial clan.
But he also belonged to the ranks of the Five Surnames and Seven High Families, and had marriage alliances with all the major clans.
Which side he would choose to stand on was indeed hard to say.
Qin Mu heard Li Xueyan ask, and while holding the child, gave her a smile.
"You don't need to worry; the Great Tang court and the clans won't fight."
Li Xueyan was a bit curious.
She had also heard that this time Great Tang sent envoys to Great Qin again, just to request Great Qin to take action against the clans.
The conflict had intensified to this degree, so why did her husband say they wouldn't fight?
"Husband, the Great Tang envoys' request for Great Qin to take action, this matter can't be hidden, right? Sooner or later the clans will know, and they won't just sit and wait for death.
Why does husband say they won't fight?"
Li Xueyan was very smart, and her mind for analyzing things was also very clear.
It was just that she was in the harem and didn't ask about politics, so she knew too little information.
Qin Mu, while gently rocking little Ali in his arms, explained.
"The Great Tang court taking action against the clans, the clans have always known.
Think about it, who are the enemies of the clans?
Besides Great Qin, there is only the Great Tang court left; how could they not think of this?
But even if the Great Tang court takes action in such a roundabout way, without tearing through the last layer of window paper, the clans won't rebel!"
"Why? Since they know clearly that the Great Tang court wants to take action against them, can the clans still endure it?"
Li Xueyan was even more surprised.
Qin Mu laughed.
"Because these old immortals of the clans are all like turtles!"
He made a joke.
Because at this moment, Qin Mu happened to see a large turtle crawling up in the pond.
Little Ali saw a turtle for the first time, staring at it without blinking, her mouth moving, seemingly wanting to eat it.
Seeing her daughter's silly look, Li Xueyan also laughed.
Ali was only two months old and couldn't eat things yet.
But that cute little look was as if she wanted to pounce directly and bite that turtle.
After teasing his daughter for a while, Qin Mu explained.
"The clans have never had any ambition; their ambition is just to hold power in the imperial court for a long time.
The Four Great Clans have flourished for a thousand years, longer than any dynasty.
Their philosophy is not to seize the empire, but to constantly consolidate the family's power!
Therefore, unless forced to the last resort, the clans will definitely not rebel!"
Li Xueyan felt as if she had been enlightened and understood immediately.
This was a trait engraved in the bones of the clans.
A great family that has flourished for a thousand years thinks differently from ordinary families.
They would think that seizing the empire, even if successful and sitting on the throne,
the family would be destroyed by others within a few hundred years.
It is far inferior to being a carefree clan like them; no matter how dynasties change, they are always the backbone of the imperial court!
Unfortunately, they were born at the wrong time and met Qin Mu.
Li Xueyan finally discovered what kind of thing her husband was doing.
He wanted to end the thousand-year glory of the Four Great Clans!
"Husband, these clans met you; they really met their natural nemesis!
In over a thousand years, no dynasty could do anything about the clans.
But you, not only drove them out of the imperial court, but the new system is also better than those systems that relied on the clans!"
Since Qin Mu ascended the throne, the achievements he had made had always shocked Li Xueyan.
She had witnessed it all the way from the beginning, when Qin Mu was still fighting for territory with Songtsen Gampo in Tibet.
That kind of shock was hard to describe.
Every time she was shocked, she thought this was Qin Mu's limit.
But the next time, an even greater shock was waiting for her.
Time after time, until now.
Li Xueyan finally understood a little that Qin Mu's thinking was fundamentally different from everyone else in this era!
The ideal country he wanted to create and the new system he wanted to establish were things predecessors had never even thought of!
Precisely because of this, all his actions were impossible for others to guess.
They could only be shocked with their mouths agape after seeing the results. ===== CHAPTER 1087 =====
