Monobe Kazuki was angry with Li You, and when he heard the empress say this, he couldn't help but be very dissatisfied, but he couldn't express it, so he just asked, "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?" There was some dissatisfaction in his tone.

The Empress saw what was in his mind and said, "Nothing. Minister of Things, please go to the side hall for a short rest. Let us deliberate before making a decision. ”

After Kazuki Monobe left, the empress asked, "What do you think about this matter?" ”

The eldest brother said: "The news provided by the Minister of Goods is really important, let's quickly convene a military meeting and prepare for war!" ”

Nakatomi Kamazu asked with some confusion, "Are these things that Minister Monobe said credible?" ”

The Empress said, "What do you think? ”

Zhongchen Kamazu said: "The Minister of Monology started by relying on Li You of the Tang Dynasty, and his daughter is Li You's princess, why did he betray Li You?" ”

The eldest brother of the prince said: "I believe in the Minister of Things, from the earliest time I began to contact him, I found that this person has a deep affection for the Yamato country, and he played a vital role in getting rid of Su I into the deer.

As for why he chose Yamato, this is very easy to explain, first of all, he is a native of Yamato, his ancestors were once important figures in Yamato, and he struggled for so many years to restore the glory of his ancestors. His Majesty has given him this honor, restored the honor and status of his ancestors, and has fulfilled his wishes. He would feel extremely honored to be a minister in Yamato Province.

For him, he was a minister in the Tang Dynasty of Yamato Province and had his own roots on the island of Kyushu, and this situation was most beneficial to him.

If the Yamato Kingdom is gone, although his grandson is the Tang Dynasty's canonized king of the Dongying Islands, it is just a false title, and the Tang Dynasty will implement the county system here, what kind of status can he have? I don't even have the privilege of arriving in Kyushu.,It's just a dispensable nobleman.。

I think he sincerely took refuge in our Yamato country, otherwise, there would be no need for him to expose Li You's conspiracy.

We didn't mean to target him, we have agreed with her daughter to leave Fujiwara Kyo with the Tang Dynasty. If we don't believe him, isn't he putting himself and his daughter in danger? ”

Zhongchen Kazuzu said: "The minister can't say anything specifically, but he is a little unsteady in his heart." ”

The Empress was confident in her own wrists, and she thought that the methods she had taken against Monobe Kazuki had already influenced the hero. She said, "I think what the crown prince said makes sense, and it is more beneficial for Monobe Kazuki to choose Yamato than for him to follow the Tang Dynasty. ”

Zhongchen Kamazu said: "The minister still has some doubts, the first question is what I just said, with the minister's understanding of Li You of the Tang Dynasty, he should not be able to do things that put his relatives and friends in danger."

The second question is, after all, Li You is the son-in-law of the Minister of Things, and he betrayed Li You, what should his daughter do? ”

The Empress said, "Just now, I also thought about this issue.

The first question is that Li You did not mean to put his relatives and friends in danger, but he had already thought about it in advance.

Think about it, he deceived Monobe Kazuki, when Monobe Kazuki understood this, he took refuge in Yamato, and Monobe Jiumiko was not only the princess of Li You in the Tang Dynasty, but also the daughter of his Monobe Kazuki, what can we do with her? Is she still in danger?

Prince Pei Dilan of the Great Food Country, no matter what, is nominally here to make peace with the Yamato Kingdom, killing him will not do us any good, it will just add a powerful enemy, and the public opinion will only accuse us of the Yamato Kingdom, what impact will it have on Li You's reputation? We're not going to do anything stupid.

As for Wang Xuance and others, they are courtiers of the Tang Dynasty, what's the big deal about making sacrifices for the Tang Dynasty, let them choose for themselves, probably they thought it was an honor!

That's what I admire about Li You.

The second question is that Kazuki Monobe is a hero, and when he thinks about problems, he must first stand on his own interests. He didn't want to be a courtier of the Tang Dynasty in the first place, he and Li You had never met, what feelings did they have, how could he consider Li You's feelings?

As for Monobe Kumiko, even if Monobe Kazuki turns his face with Li You, with Li You's conduct, he will not embarrass her. ”

The minister said: "Your Majesty is wise, after your analysis, the minister also thinks it is very reasonable. However, the minister was still a little uneasy about the Minister of Things, and the minister thought that he could test him. ”

The eldest brother asked, "How to tempt?" ”

Nakatomi Kamazu said: "If he proposes to let the Tang Dynasty mission leave Fujiwara Kyo in a while, and he himself finds an excuse to leave, I'm afraid there will be a problem." ”

Empress Datang said: "Okay, you can test him." ”

At this time, in the side hall, Kazuki Monobe was closing his eyes and recuperating, he carefully examined what he said to see if there were any loopholes in it, and he was also thinking about how to proceed with the next conversation.

Why did Kazuki Monobe suddenly leak Li You's plan?

It turned out that Li You heard that the empress and others wanted to let Monobe Kazuki stay in Fujiwara-kyo was a very troublesome thing, and he couldn't let Monobe Kazuki be used as a hostage, so he would throw a rat trap in the future.

Li You has considered many options, such as sending commandos to rescue and so on, but these methods are too low-level.

He once considered a plan to ask Monobe Kazuki to give the empress and others a radio, and then lied that because there was no war between the two countries, the Tang Dynasty's front-line command post of the Eastern Expeditionary Army on Kyushu Island would also be evacuated, and there were 4 radio stations there, and Monobe Kazuki would personally go back and leave these radios.

The desire for radio is a great bait, and the empress and others may not be able to resist this temptation. If the Empress and the others had doubts about why Monobe Kazuki had to go back in person, instead of letting Monobe Taro or Monobe Kumiko solve the problem,

Monobe Kazuki can say that it is precisely because they are familiar and close to Li You that they can't wipe off their face. He has no friendship with Li You, so he can give him a problem and directly put forward conditions, and Li You should agree to it in order to ensure his interests on Kyushu Island.

Originally, this reason should have been to let Monobe Kazuki leave with the Tang Dynasty mission. For this reason, Li You also specially ordered that in order to ensure that the Tang Dynasty mission left Fujiwara Kyo safely, the Tang Dynasty army postponed the time to attack the Japanese slave country.

However, after receiving a report from Wang Jue, the vice commander of the navy in Osaka Bay, Li You changed his mind.
