Chapter 489: Trap

"Why did you guys come here together?"

In the imperial study, Li Er couldn't help but be a little curious when he saw the three of them coming in together.

"When the old slave went to invite the horse, he happened to meet the two princes, and they came over together!"

Without waiting for the two to speak, Wang De replied.

When he entered the horse gate, he seemed to hear something like taking a concubine, although he didn't hear it all, but he could guess a rough idea.

For the embarrassment of the two princes, he took the topic over.

If he had just entered the door and asked to take a concubine, Li Er would definitely not agree, and he would even get angry, but if the time is ripe, this thing may be possible!

"Oh! So that's the case, so let's sit down and come up with ideas together! ”

Li Er didn't ask, the three of them lived very closely, and it was normal to occasionally visit the door.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After thanking each other, the three of them found a chair and sat down.

"I don't know why Your Majesty called your son-in-law here?"

Zhao Yin was the first to speak.

"The Duke of Eguo handed over a fold, saying that the matter of Tubo has been dealt with almost now, and asked if he wants to continue to attack Tianzhu in the south!"

Li Er handed over the excerpt on the dragon case to Wang De and asked him to show it to the three of them.

"Tianzhu is located in the plain and has a lot of arable land, we will take it down sooner or later, but the son-in-law thinks that the most important thing now is to enhance the national strength!"

There are fewer copper mines in the Tang Dynasty, which is not enough to mint money, but there is a lot of gold and silver in the Wa Kingdom, and it is a coastal country, so there must be a lot of pearls, so Zhao Yin plans to attack the Wa State first.

"Do you mean to say that we will attack the Wa Kingdom first?"

As soon as Zhao Yin's words fell, Li Er already understood.

"That's right, as long as the Wa Kingdom is defeated, won't all the gold and silver there belong to the Tang Dynasty?"

Zhao Yin laughed playfully.

In fact, he advocated attacking the Wa Kingdom, not only to get money there, but to breathe in his heart!

It is also for the sake of reducing the trouble for future generations!

"It's good!"

Li Er nodded, then frowned and asked, "On the other side of the ocean, the Japanese Kingdom must have ocean-going ships to attack, has your ship been built?" ”

"Almost, in a few months you can go into the water to test the boat!"

Zhao Yin said with a smile.

From the beginning of spring to the present, the number of workers in the shipyard has expanded several times, and the progress of shipbuilding is also accelerating.

Of course, with so many workers starting work at the same time, plus the workers' salaries, and sending troops on an expedition, Datang's recent financial expenses are also very large!

"If the trial is successful, when will enough boats be produced?"

Hearing that the ship will be tested soon, Li Er is still very excited.

"It's almost the end of the year!"

Zhao Yin pinched his fingers and counted the time.

"Hahaha, great, next year I will be able to set foot in the Wa Kingdom......!"

Li Er laughed heartily, "You have made a great contribution to pacifying the two countries this time, if it weren't for your idea, they would not have pacified the two countries so smoothly!" ”

If Zhao Yin didn't say that Rhodiola could alleviate altitude sickness, they wouldn't be fighting on the plateau at all now.

Thanks to his idea, Wei Chigong and them won the hearts of the people so quickly!

"Since the merit of the colt is so great, should Your Majesty reward him with something?"

The eldest grandson Wuji saw that the time was ripe and asked tentatively.

"Yes, yes, the plateau people are good at hiding, if there is no strategy of the horses, it is really difficult for them to catch those people!"

Hou Junji glanced at him, instantly understood, and hurriedly agreed.

"Well, that's right, the colt deserves ...... reward this time!"

Li Er was on the rise, and he didn't refuse, but he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly added, "But you can't ask me for money, and you can't ask for my princess!" ”

"The concubine is now in the prime of life, and the minister thinks that he should serve the two concubines of the concubine?"

It was the eldest grandson Wuji who was bold and took the lead in mentioning it.

He is the emperor's uncle, even if the emperor wants to be angry, he will not do anything to him, at most two reprimands.

What's more, he didn't say that he wanted to send his daughter over now!

But Hou Junji beside him didn't speak, but cautiously watched Li Er's reaction!

"Uh-huh......! There is only one beauty, which is indeed a little unreasonable! ”

Li Er thought for a long time, and finally nodded.

Although he doesn't want his beloved daughter to share her husband with others, he is also a man, and it is indeed a bit unreasonable to let an upright and beautiful young man in his prime only guard one woman, so he can only nod.

"And what do you mean?"

Li Er looked at Zhao Yin, after all, he was the party involved in this matter, if he was unwilling to take a concubine, he would have something to say.

"It's up to my father-in-law to decide!"

Zhao Yin arched his hand to Li Er with a straight face, and he couldn't see his joy or anger at all.

However, this kid put on an attitude of not caring about himself, leaving him with nothing to say.

"Then which girl do you think is the right girl?"

In desperation, Li Er had no choice but to continue.

After all, he is a colt, and he can't accept anyone casually, after all, he will live with his precious daughter in the future!

"Your Majesty, the minister has a daughter who is still in the boudoir, and is friendly with Princess Changle, if she arrives at the Horse Mansion, she will definitely be able to serve the princess!"

This time, Hou Junji spoke first, for fear that the emperor would say that only one would be accepted, so that the old yin goods would take the lead.

"Uh-huh......! You have already lost Qingli to the colt last time, and you should marry her, but this is a little wronged Qingli! ”

Li Er looked at him apologetically.

In this era, it is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, but if it is an ordinary family, the head of the family loves the concubine, he may still be corrected, but if the concubine wants to be corrected, it is a toad with long hair, it is impossible!

In other words, if Hou Qingli wants to marry in the past, she can only be a concubine in this life, and it is impossible to turn over!

"No, no, no, the old minister is willing to gamble and lose, if he doesn't marry Qingli, the old minister will have a reputation of rebellion!"

Hou Junji waved his hand again and again.

"That's ......!"

"Your Majesty, the old minister also has a daughter in his family, and now she is in her prime, and she can also marry a concubine!"

Li Er was about to say that this matter was settled, but the eldest grandson Wuji suddenly spoke up and interrupted him.

"What? Do you want to marry Yujia too? ”

Li Er's eyes widened suddenly, with an expression of disbelief.

The eldest grandson Yujia is the pearl of his palm, and she is a famous talented woman in Chang'an City, and she is also the cousin of Princess Changle, her identity is more noble than Hou Qingli, how can he be willing to let her be a concubine?

"Well, the horse has made such a contribution to Datang, what if Weichen doesn't make a contribution?"

The eldest grandson Wuji said without blushing and without a heartbeat.

Engage other people with black lines all over their faces!

I've never heard of anyone taking their own daughters out to contribute!

"That'...... Does Rain Canon agree? ”

Li Er asked again.

"Since ancient times, a woman's marriage has been the words of the matchmaker at the behest of her parents, as long as Weichen agrees!"

The eldest grandson Wuji replied.

He can't say that his daughter has slept with your colt, can he?

"Well, according to your wishes, let the daughters of your two families be concubines!"

The topic has already said this, Li Er can only nod, after all, they are both national dukes, and it is difficult for him to refute the face of the two.

Besides, they are not ashamed to make their daughter a concubine, what is he afraid of?

Thinking about it this way, it was their family who took advantage.

Until now, he didn't realize that this was a trap, just waiting for him to drill into it!
