Chapter 650 Forced Questioning

The heir of the 650th charter heard Qin Huaidao say that he would not go, and anxiously told Qin Huaidao that he dared to resist the decree.

"What am I resisting, you let me be a coward, how can I fight with those officials of the family in the court in the future? When the time comes, when I fight with them, they will call me a coward, how can you ask me to talk back?

You are like this, I will write a letter to my father, you bring it back to me, I came here this time, just to get new weapons, and promise to make those Turkic and Tibetan things come and go, you go back first, I'm busy! Qin Huaidao said to Cheng Chuhei.

"Get a new weapon, what weapon?" Cheng Zhiji stared at Qin Huaidao and asked, he still believed Qin Huaidao's words, he knew Qin Huaidao's ability in terms of things.

"You don't understand it now, wait for me to figure it out, show it to you, make sure you like it, I'll write a letter, you go and get busy!" Qin Huaidao said to Cheng Zhihei, and he returned to the office.

Iron and steel workshop, but there is a special office room for Qin Huaidao, Qin Huaidao was originally the founder of this steel workshop, and he is also the waiter of the Ministry of Works, so he originally had the power to supervise the steel workshop.

Moreover, the person in charge of the steel workshop was selected by Qin Huaidao, and those officials of the Ministry of Industry did not dare to say that they were loyal to Qin Huaidao, but they were definitely maintained, Qin Huaidao was the face of their Ministry of Industry, and they were the God of Wealth to increase their income.

Everyone knows that the current officials of the Ministry of Industry are so rich that it is because of the incentive measures set by Qin Huaidao, who dares to disobey Qin Huaidao's orders, and more importantly, Qin Huaidao has the right to change the person in charge of the Ministry of Industry at any time.

Soon, Qin Huaidao wrote the letter and handed it to Cheng Zhihei, but now it is dark, Cheng Zhiji needs to stay here for one night, and he can return to Chang'an tomorrow.

And Qin Huaidao started to work overnight, opening the mold, pouring, and at the same time let the steel workshop prepare a large amount of iron sand, in another room, Qin Huaidao told the workers to start configuring things according to the proportion, Qin Huaidao was going to make black powder this time,

Of course, the workers who go to configure the things are all the food estates of the Qin Mansion, and here, there are also the food estates of the Qin Mansion working here, their loyalty to Qin Huaidao, needless to say, the living conditions of the Qin Mansion are so good now, who is not envious,

Especially when I learned that Qin Huaidao might be going to the battlefield, those food towns were all ready to go, and on the Qin Zhuang side, some families had already begun to wash those armors and polish those weapons, and the older veterans at home also explained how their sons and nephews protected Qin Huaidao on the battlefield.

The food of the Qin Mansion knows that on the battlefield, even if all the pro-soldiers are killed, as long as Qin Huaidao is still alive, then they are not afraid, if Qin Huaidao is dead, all those pro-soldiers are alive, it is useless,

Therefore, now on the Qinzhuang side, many young children who work outside have returned to Zhuangzi and started to practice martial arts, they used to know martial arts, but they didn't fight, they were unfamiliar, and now under the guidance of those old people, they have practiced again.

And the Qin Mansion has now also sent hundreds of horses over to let them practice riding, and all the weapons have been sent over to familiarize them with their weapons.

In the entire Qin Mansion, without Qin Huaidao knowing, the housekeeper was already arranging, and the housekeeper was very worried, but he knew that the more important thing was how to arrange for his children to protect Qin Huaidao.

Early the next morning, Cheng Zhihei took Qin Huaidao's letter and went to Chang'an, and when he arrived in Chang'an, it was already evening.

"Your Majesty, Cheng Chuhei asks to see!" Wang En saw Cheng Chuhei coming back, and immediately went in and said to Li Shimin, at this time Li Shimin was discussing with several ministers about the war against Tubo, and those ministers were not optimistic about this battle, because it was winter, and the army of the Tang Dynasty was fighting in the northwest, without any advantages, and the cavalry could not play out!

"Let him in, why are you only coming back now?" Li Shimin said to Wang En, and soon, Cheng Chuhei came in.

"The minister has seen Your Majesty!" Cheng Chuji clenched his fists and said.

"Well, Pepin went, right?" Li Shimin looked at Cheng Chuhei and asked, those officials all looked at Li Shimin, I don't know if Li Shimin's sentence Peping is gone, what does it mean, where did he go?

"Your Majesty didn't, the minister persuaded Hu Guogong, Hu Guogong said that he is a military general, and he is not afraid of death or things!" Cheng Chusi arched his hand and said.

"Nonsense!" Li Shimin shouted angrily, and stood up excitedly.

"Your Majesty, this is a letter from Pepin to you, he said, after you read it, you won't let him go!" Cheng Chusi opened his mouth to speak, and at the same time handed over Qin Huaidao's letter with both hands, Li Shimin took it very dissatisfied, opened it and looked at it.

"Huh?" Li Shimin looked at the new weapon mentioned by Qin Huaidao, and was so powerful by Qin Huaidao, he was a little tempted,

But I was still anxious for Qin Huaidao in my heart, just now these ministers also had the intention of blaming Qin Huaidao, Li Shimin explained to them that it was not Qin Huaidao's idea to fight Tubo, it was his own idea, but they completely ignored it, and until now, they still have to shift the responsibility to Qin Huaidao.

"Well, this bunny!" After Li Shimin finished reading it, he scolded, and Cheng Chuhei was standing there.

"You go back first!" Li Shimin put away the letter and said to Cheng Zhihei, who immediately gave up.

"Your Majesty, this battle, Hu Guogong must go to the front line, if you don't go, I believe that other ministers will be dissatisfied, although the minister knows that this incident was not caused by Hu Guogong, but he was trying his best to fight,

Now that the fight has started, and the Turks have increased their troops in Tibet, Qin Huaidao will not go, then it can't be said, if Qin Huaidao is a civilian official, then he will not go, it's okay, but Qin Huaidao is a military general, this time I don't go, if there is any accident on the front line, I believe everyone will not let go of Hu Guogong! At this time, the eldest grandson Wuji sat on his chair, looked at Li Shimin and said,

From the moment he learned that the Turks had increased their troops in Tibet, he knew that the opportunity had come, so he immediately arranged for those ministers to start pushing the responsibility on Qin Huaidao, and the eldest grandson Wuji was a minister after all, and he was also a person that Li Shimin relied on, to discuss the affairs of the front line, Li Shimin would definitely come to him, so at this time, the eldest grandson Wuji needed to give Qin Huaidao eye medicine.

"Auxiliary, you know the importance of Pepin to the empire, it is impossible for me to let Pepin go to the front line at this time, in case there is any mistake, for Datang, the loss is huge!" Li Shimin looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and reminded him, and also made it clear that he didn't want Qin Huaidao to go to the front line.

"Your Majesty, the minister knows, but in order to calm the anger of the ministers, it is impossible not to let him go, please think twice!" The eldest grandson Wuji arched his hand and said.

"Please think twice, Your Majesty!" The other ministers also said with their hands. Li Shimin stared at the eldest grandson Wuji, but the eldest grandson Wuji did not look at Li Shimin.

"Okay, let's not talk about this matter, let's talk about the things to be prepared this time, the worst result is nothing more than the Tubo army, killed to our northwest border, to our place, I believe that our Tang Dynasty army can still withstand it, at most it is some residential areas on the border, and those people need to migrate inward." Li Shimin sat down, watched them and spoke.

"It may not be able to stop Your Majesty, the Turks and Tubo are united this time, if they don't get enough benefits, they will definitely not withdraw their troops, they will definitely attack in the direction of Chang'an, and now the 16th Army of the Tang Dynasty needs to increase its troops, from the original 36,000 to the current 60,000!" The eldest grandson, Wuji, sat there and spoke.

"Well, the government soldiers in various places also need to be prepared, and once they are needed, the government soldiers in various places also need to be recruited." Another minister spoke.

"In addition, in terms of military rations, it is now necessary to prepare in advance, and the grain collected from various places this year needs to be stored, and the sweet potatoes in the northwest can't be dug now? This sweet potato needs to be dug up in advance, and it needs to be transported to the rear in case of emergency! The eldest grandson Wuji continued to speak, and Li Shimin nodded.

"Whether the sweet potato is ripe or not, I don't know, I need to ask Gao Ming!" Li Shimin nodded and spoke.

"It stands to reason that it's almost, it's already August now, and it's about to enter September, and the rest of the grain is almost harvested, it's sweet potatoes!" The eldest grandson Wuji thought about it for a while, and said, the August they are talking about, it is the eighth month of the lunar calendar, in the Tang Dynasty, but there is no Gregorian calendar.

Then they continued to discuss, and after the discussion, Li Shimin asked them to go back, leaving the eldest grandson Wuji alone.

"Auxiliary, Pepin can't go out this time, you know his importance!" Li Shimin looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and said, he knew that as long as the eldest grandson Wuji said something, many of those ministers would shut up.

"Your Majesty, it's not that the minister wants him to go, it's that he has to go, otherwise, how to give an explanation to the people of the world, the minister knows that Hu Guogong is a person who has great merit to the Tang Dynasty, but the merit is merit or demerit." The eldest grandson Wuji also said very insistently.

"Hey, why are you two incompatible? Wrong, he doesn't have anything to do with you, and he protects you very much, and why do you have to get along with a junior, it's because of the beauty of the matter? Li Shimin continued to stare at the eldest grandson Wuji and asked.

"Your Majesty has wronged the minister, the minister has no opinion on the matter of Lizhi, after all, he and Chong'er have been separated, who to marry, that is Lizhi's freedom, and the minister is not unable to tolerate Hu Guogong, this time the minister is just talking about things!" The eldest grandson Wuji immediately denied it.

"Then I ask you to say among those ministers this time, don't you want Hu Guogong to go on the expedition?" Li Shimin didn't believe these words said by the eldest grandson Wuji at all, and asked directly.
