Chapter 422 [Imperial Family, Relatives Will Also Turn Their Faces]

Call!

The Emperor let out a long breath.

At this time, everyone in the room also understood Li Yun's goal.

The Silk Road in the Han Dynasty once reached as far as the West, silk and pottery, which could be exchanged for gold and precious stones, tea bricks and salt and iron in the Western Regions, which could make the people of the Western Regions crazy, if you add food......

It's a pity that three hundred years ago, the Central Plains began to weaken, either foreign invasions or their own fights, resulting in the Han people no longer having the ability to open caravans, and the Silk Road, known as profiteering and getting rich, gradually became desolate.

After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan once wanted to reopen the Silk Road, but unfortunately, at that time, the Turks wanted to buy road money, saying that it was to buy road money, but in fact, it was robbing, once there was a caravan transporting silk, porcelain, tea, bricks, salt and iron, the Turks guaranteed to rob the caravan of a bird's egg, and they would kill people after robbing, which merchant dared to go.

Later, Li Shimin ascended the throne, the Tang Dynasty and the Turks still did not deal with each other, until the battle of Li Yun and the Yellow River was the turning point, the Turks and the Tang Dynasty concluded a brotherly covenant, at that time Li Shimin also wanted to open the Silk Road, but unfortunately the Tang Dynasty was poor, how could there be a house to sell out?

Later, Li Yun established a trading center in Fanyang, but the merchants of the Western Regions often formed caravans to make a fortune, selling cattle, sheep and horses, and exchanging tea, bricks, salt and iron, which could barely be regarded as reopening the Silk Road, but that was only a small fight......

The real Silk Road must be an industry at the national level, gathering a large number of materials, launching a huge caravan, and then all the way across the Turkic steppe, crossing the snow-capped mountains and boundless desert, the materials are constantly dumped, and the merchants go straight to thousands of miles, there are 36 famous countries in the Western Regions, and there are countless small countries like stars in the sky, and there are countless countries in the west of the Western Regions, which even have empires, and the strength is not much better than the Central Plains.

Although the ancients valued agriculture over commerce, the ancients also knew that commerce was indispensable, especially the lucrative business of the Silk Road, which has always been something that all emperors of all dynasties longed for.

……

Call!

The room was full of breath and condensation, only Li Shimin exhaled deeply again, and the emperor suddenly looked at Li Yun with a solemn face, and said very seriously: "I want to occupy half of this road." ”

As he spoke, he seemed to feel that his tone was too hard, for fear that Li Yun would rebel and be sad, so he hurriedly changed his statement and said: "On this road, the people of Datang will account for half." ”

The emperor of a dignified country would take care of his nephew's emotions, and in order to take care of his emotions, he specially used the people to talk about things.

But Li Shimin was already like this, Li Yun didn't nod directly, but said very solemnly: "On this road, the people of Bohai account for half of ......."

Half of the people of Bohai?

So isn't the other half given to Datang?

If it is given to Datang, isn't it given to Li Shimin?

Everyone thought that he had agreed, but they suddenly heard Li Yun follow and said: "The other two percent, all belong to me." ”

Hiss!

Someone in the room clearly took a faint breath of cold air.

The people of Bohai account for half, and you, the lord of the country, account for an additional 20%, isn't this a total of 70%, and only 30% for the Tang Dynasty?

Too lonely, right?

You are the lord of the Bohai Sea, and the so-called half of the people of the Bohai Sea are actually yours, so if you calculate it, it is equivalent to you asking for seventy percent of your own?

The emperor of the Tang Dynasty is only thirty percent?

A prince dares to divide accounts with the emperor, which has never been heard of in ancient times.

……

"Father, this matter ......" Li Chengqian was the first to stand up, and couldn't help but want to speak.

Who knew that Li Shimin suddenly roared, and seemed to be extremely angry: "Shut up, sit down, I won't die for a day, you will always be just a prince." ”

Wow!

The crowd was in an uproar.

The emperor's words were too heavy.

It sounds like a reprimand for Li Chengqian, but maybe it's for Li Yun.

"Father, son, I ......" Li Chengqian was obviously very aggrieved, his eyes were a little cowardly, but he finally chose to sit down.

Li Shimin didn't look at his son's grievances at all, but just stared straight at Li Yun with a pair of tiger eyes, and after a long time, the emperor spoke in a deep voice and asked, "Bohai people, fifty percent?" ”

Li Yun nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes!" ”

Li Shimin was slightly silent, and then asked again: "You, two percent?" ”

Li Yun nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes!" This time he looked very solemn and added: "Second uncle, I have a family, I have eight daughters-in-law to raise, and I will have to raise their children in the future......"

Li Shimin still stared at him directly, and it took a long time before he said, "I, Sancheng? ”

Li Yun didn't know why, and said with a smile: "It's one percent more than my nephew." ”

The emperor didn't know why, but he suddenly smiled, nodded and said: "Very good, you will always be a person who respects your elders, what you said is right, I will give you one more percent." ”

"Father!" This time, Li Chengqian couldn't help it again, although he sat honestly, he couldn't help but speak impatiently, and said: "Big brother, he obviously took seventy percent, and my father shouldn't be deceived by him." ”

Li Shimin slowly turned his head, looked at his son with a little disappointment, and said with deep meaning: "You are wrong, your eldest brother only took 20%, and as for the other 50%, it belongs to the people of Bohai." ”

"But he is the lord of the Bohai Sea, isn't it his?"

"Therefore, you can only be a prince now, you can't even be a prince, and you still can't understand the difference between country and family."

The distinction between the country and the home?

Li Chengqian was at a loss.

He's just a prince, he really can't tell the difference.

And Li Shimin and Li Yun are different, an emperor and a lord, they know how to distinguish, so they can reach a tacit understanding. The opening of the Silk Road, fifty percent of them belong to the people of Bohai.

At this time, Li Yuan's voice suddenly sounded in the corner again, and the Emperor Taishang of the Tang Dynasty seemed to have something curious again, and asked Li Yundao: "Good grandson, you only need one place in Goguryeo until now, if grandpa is not mistaken, you once said that you need three territories to build a country, and Goguryeo has already given it to you, where are the other two places?" ”

Where are the other two places?

Only then did everyone remember that there was still something to talk about.

If Li Yun wants to establish the Bohai Kingdom, he must need his own territory as his territory, and Goguryeo has been determined to belong to him, but he doesn't know which two places will be left.

"Will the lion open his mouth?"

"Will you want Hebei Province?"

"Hebei Province can give it to him, but Fanyangcheng must stay in Datang, where there is a trading center, and Datang can't do without that industry."

When huge interests are involved, even relatives will have different hearts, and if this relative is a royal family, then the different hearts will be stronger than those of ordinary people.

Fortunately, the first sentence Li Yun said first made everyone's worries a little less, but listening to Li Yundao: "I am building a country in Bohai, and I must need Bohai, the land of Baishan and Heishui is the territory of the Yan people for generations, and I am their patriarch, so I will assign this land to Bohai." ”

Call!

Everyone in the royal family breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that they had let go of a big stone in their hearts.

Fortunately, the second place Li Yun wanted was Baishan and Heishui.

But they soon became nervous again, because no one knew where Li Yun would want the third place.

……

In front of everyone's eyes, I saw Li Yun smile and said softly: "The third place, I want the Turkic steppe." ”

"No way!"

It seemed that at the same time, seven or eight voices rang out in the room.

Prairie, how dare you ask for prairie?

What is this to establish a vassal state, this is to build an empire larger than the Tang Dynasty, how big is the entire Turkic steppe? The area is half larger than the Central Plains.
