Chapter 380: The Prince Has Arrived
Li Shimin is also happy to talk about this topic: "The pheasant slave is good, I have been in Goryeo for so long and every day to use fast horses to transmit big and small things, which shows his caution and filial piety." β
"Congratulations, Your Majesty." Of course, the eldest grandson Wuji is happy, he is Li Zhi's uncle, and when Li Shimin is no longer there, he has qualifications, military exploits, and connections, and the rights of the entire Tang Dynasty are not all his.
"I'm old, and after I arrived in Goguryeo, I feel that my health is getting worse day by day, and after I go back this time, I will hand over the basic government affairs to the pheasant slaves, and I have struggled for decades, and I should enjoy the blessings." Li Shimin held his head and said: "He just learned to do things, and you are his uncle in the auxiliary machine, so you need to help him more." β
"Your Majesty is in the prime of life, how can you easily say goodbye." The eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly persuaded him: "If you are not feeling well, let the imperial doctor help you take a look, if you really can't do it, just rest for a while, how can you hand over all the government affairs to him." β
Li Shimin sighed: "Auxiliary, we are not outsiders, I will tell you clearly, now I am the highest point of prestige, the Eastern Turks in the north have been destroyed by me, and Tuguhun in the northwest has also been destroyed, Tubo is now shrunk on the plateau by us and dare not go down, those small countries in the Western Regions don't want to mention, the Western Turks control Xuan million also bow down to us, and now Goguryeo has also been destroyed, there are few people who can do this for me throughout the ages, and I retreat bravely." β
The eldest grandson Wuji knew that Li Shimin wanted to preserve his perfect reputation, and now he can really be regarded as an emperor through the ages, and he is afraid that there will be an accident in the future that will damage his reputation. Although the emperor has such thoughts, as a courtier, he can't just echo it, maybe he deliberately said this to test him: "It's not proper, Your Majesty is experienced, and you must still be in charge, so those small countries around you don't dare to have an unpredictable heart." β
Li Jixing rushed into the tent: "Your Majesty, good news." Lantian Hou sent someone to send the news, the royal family. The Royal Navy had already captured Quangai Suwen and killed his second and third sons, only his eldest son had not yet been caught, and he had already sent someone to capture him. β
"Really? Present the movement and see! Li Shimin was overjoyed, this huge crusade can finally come to a perfect end.
Li Shimin took the recital and smiled while watching: "Li Dongsheng, this kid is a jack of all trades, he can make some achievements wherever he puts it." Changing the navy into a navy made such a great achievement at the beginning, how can I reward him? β
The eldest grandson Wuji was shocked when he heard this: "Your Majesty, he changed the name of the water army, and he didn't do anything, if he can catch Quangai Suwen, it doesn't all depend on the water army to Heng them, is it so powerful." β
"Hahaha, the auxiliary machine is not happy to hear that Li Dongsheng has merit, you are Zai Fu to be broad-minded." Li Shimin handed him the concerto: "Look at it, this kid actually signed an agreement with the Wa Kingdom, which is interesting." β
"Your Majesty, the minister wants to impeach Lantian Hou, he is the chief officer of the navy, without His Majesty's consent, he dares to sign an agreement with other countries, it is really a crime of deception." The eldest grandson Wuji took over the chapter, and didn't look at the impeachment first.
Li Shimin didn't have anything to do with his brother-in-law, he waved his hand and said, "You can read it first." β
The eldest grandson Wuji unfolded the chapter, saw the end at a glance and ten lines, and said with a strange face: "This kid actually turned the assassination of him into an agreement between the Tang Dynasty and the Wa State, but I think that the last Tang crime must be punished by the Tang State in favor of me, and the rest are not all things that the Wa State desires?" β
"Auxiliary, your thinking is outdated, I often talk to him, and many of his whimsical ideas are very touching to me." Li Shimin smiled: "Have you forgotten how he dealt with Tubo back then?" β
"Your Majesty is talking about economic means?" In the end, it is the person who does Zaifu, and it is easy to understand it.
"Yes, Li Dongsheng's trade right means that we Tang people can do business in any city in the Wa Kingdom, so that any product produced by our Datang can be sold to the Wa Kingdom, and then all the daily necessities of the Wa Kingdom will have to rely on us, and they can only rely on me." Li Shimin said with a smile: "A soldier who surrenders without a fight is the highest level. β
"What if the Japanese people turn their faces and deny it? They're not stupid. β
Li Ji said with a smile: "Then we didn't lease a port to the navy as a supply terminal, where will there be a few thousand people stationed at that time, so that the Japanese country can obediently implement the treaty." Ha ha. β
Ten days later, Li Dongsheng and his entourage rushed to Dingzhou, first saluted Li Shimin, and then brought Quan Gai Suwen up, Li Shimin dressed up for today's meeting, he looked at the sluggish Quan Gai Suwen kneeling in front of him, and said loudly: "You didn't listen to my orders at the beginning, but did you think about today?" β
Quangai Suwen is a hero, but after the pain of losing his son, the bumps along the way and Li Dongsheng's warning, he no longer has the original spirit, he knows that if he wants to live, he has to follow the words of this Tang Emperor.
"The criminal minister Quan Gai Suwen offended the Son of Heaven and attracted the wrath of the Tang Dynasty, and he deserves death!" He knelt on the ground, not daring to lift his head.
Seeing this arrogant and domineering Goguryeo minister kneeling in front of him, Li Shimin's vanity was unprecedentedly satisfied, and he laughed: "Those who have just committed a strong man, although they are far away, will be punished!" It's the same with my Datang. Now you know what the wrath of the Son of Heaven is. β
He instructed: "It is also a good story to bring the treasures over and let them meet in the Tang Dynasty." β
Li Dongsheng and all the ministers present were all in a bad cold, Your Majesty's bad taste is really... The two monarchs and ministers of the dead country usually fight to the death in the country, but now they have become prisoners, I don't know if they met as hot as Mars hitting the earth or relatively wordless and tearful, oops, this scene is really looking forward to it.
Li Dongsheng is not as naΓ―ve as them, he rushed all the way over, in order to prevent accidents, he didn't dare to relax when he was in a hurry, and now that he finally arrived at the location, he wanted to find a place to sleep.
Wang De saw his fatigue and asked a little eunuch to help him arrange a tent to rest, Li Dongsheng was not polite, and directly fell asleep on the bed.
When he woke up, it was already the next morning, he got up and freshened up, and this sleep was comfortable, and he returned to Datang, without the kind of fear at any time on the enemy land, he was like peeling off a layer of shell, relaxed and unlikely.
After moving his body, he was just about to hand over his position as the chief of the navy with Li Shimin, ask for leave and go back to Chang'an first, and calculate the time just in time for the three big-bellied mothers-in-law in the family to have children.
As soon as he walked outside the area where he lived, he was stopped by the guards: "Lantian Hou, please wait a moment, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived and is preparing to meet His Majesty." β
