Chapter 174: The Two Monarchs and Ministers

---- Imperial Study

Xu Qing really regretted what he said before, and now he has to wear out his mouth and dry his saliva, so that he can pull out the elm pimple that Li Yuan and the two outsiders are trapped in superstitious thoughts and can't extricate themselves. From the charcoal and charcoal incident at the beginning, no, starting from the blizzard, to the day when they came to the imperial study after breakfast, the two elm pimples nodded as if they didn't understand. Really tired, Xu Qing sighed and said: "So, this Qinghong sword is actually my improved method, Lu Xuan actually processed and manufactured, in the future, as long as there is coal, then, this good sword and good sword can be endless, and my Tang army can cut horses on foot......"

Li Yuan couldn't speak for a long time, sighed and said, "Xu Qing, do you know what kind of changes you will bring to Datang if you offer this method?" ”

Without waiting for Xu Qing to answer, Li Yuan continued: "Okay, okay, Xu Qing, you are my Jiang Shang, you are my Yiyin!" I want to seal you, seal you as a great prince! I'm going to make you a king with a different surname! ”

Xu Qing hurriedly knelt down and said, "Long live my emperor!" However, the minister does not need any reward, and His Majesty's trust is the greatest incentive for the minister! ”

Li Yuan stared at Xu Qing and asked, "Why?" Don't you want the title of duke? ”

Xu Qing hung his head and said: "Four years ago, the minister was still suppressing bandits in Shandong, and he didn't know where the food and clothing were, there was no tile to shade the sun and rain, and there was not an inch to live and stay. But at that time, no one wanted to harm the ministers. However, in four years, the minister has gone from being a nobody, step by step, to the top of the clouds, and now he is the respect of the county uncle, holding the Xuanwu Great Seal, and the ministers outside also have many false names. Everything that the minister has given today is given by His Majesty, and the minister has not repaid His Majesty's kindness, and His Majesty has rewarded him, and the minister is afraid. ”

Li Yuan sighed, but also settled down, and said in his heart Xu Qing is really a pure minister, and now he is rich, and he does not forget the sadness at that time. After thinking about it, he replied: "Xu Qing's talent, for the benefit of the society, it is difficult to say, I think it is impossible to add you." ”

Xu Qing shook his head again: "Now, there are already many people who are jealous of the ministers, and the ministers have offended them for no reason." However, the minister felt that it didn't matter, even if the Manchu civil and military did not interact with the minister, as long as His Majesty trusted the minister, the minister would be safe and sound. But it is inevitable that the three of them will become tigers, and the embankment of thousands of miles will collapse in the anthill. Your Majesty, the minister is terrified, everything he has done today is to make His Majesty trust the minister and repay His Majesty's kindness. I don't dare to ask for a ...... again."

Xu Qing said, he couldn't help but be moved, since he came to Datang, he has been smooth, and the official is getting bigger and bigger, isn't it the reason why Li Yuan trusts him? From the perspective of part-time jobs, if Li Yuan didn't let Xu Qing kneel and talk, it would really be a good boss.

Looking at the sword in his hand, Li Yuan suddenly became sad, sat on the chair and sighed: "I thought that when I became the emperor, I could reward those who were loyal to him, and I would reward whatever I wanted." But today, you don't. I don't know what you're talking about, but it's very satisfying. ”

Li Yuan flicked his sleeves and said: "Listen, this matter is a private promise between me and you, from now on, I will give you the power to kill and seize Yu, if someone secretly harms you, as long as you are not a member of the clan, you can fight back, I don't ask anything." However, if everyone wants to kill you, I will have to replace you with someone, but you will no longer have your glory and wealth, and you will have to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests. ”

"Huh? This is not bad......" Xu Qing blurted out, and then found that his eating appearance was ugly and returned: "The person who dealt with the minister seems to want to see how solid the relationship between the emperor and the minister is, but the further purpose, the minister doesn't know." ”

"You......" Li Yuan pointed at Xu Qing and said: "Sometimes, you are very smart, and sometimes, you are very confused, the power I gave you just now, you should not want it." ”

"Huh? Ministers and ministers don't want it," Xu Qing Khan, he knew that Li Yuan was testing him again: "The ministers are guilty of capital crimes......"

This time, Xu Qing revealed his true feelings, without the slightest flustery, Li Yuan read countless people, and saw Xu Qing's heart at a glance. It's okay if you're stupid, as long as you're not smarter than me, the city is very deep, and the emperor is particularly taboo about such courtiers. Xu Qing's mental skills are simple, but Xu Qing is smart in other aspects, which is simply a perfect courtier for Li Yuan.

Since he was a perfect courtier, how could Li Yuan really be angry with Xu Qing with that little temptation just now? So he said, "Forget it, I will forgive you from sin." However, I also know what you said. If someone really wants to harm you, just tell me,"

"Your Majesty, if there is really some big man framing the minister, the minister can still stand it. But there are always some little flies that provoke me, and the minister is a little annoyed. ”

Li Yuan stared at Xu Qing at this time and said: "No, no, what else do you kid want to say, this little thing can make you come here in a big way, and you are a sword and a sign of loyalty?" ”

Xu Qing smiled and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is a little trivial. Your Majesty, after this steel knife and steel gun is made, can you equip my 3,000 people first? ”

Li Yuan showed an expression that was really like this: "Okay, since you said that making steel knives is so simple, then why don't I let you equip it first?" What kind of Qinghong sword is this, you take it back, I'm not rare. However, this sword should be replaced with a scabbard......"

Li Yuan took out a sword from the sword stand behind him, took out the scabbard, handed it to Xu Qing and said, "This is also a privilege I give you, those little flies, you take this out, it's enough to scare them to death." ”

Looking at the yellow, orange and orange scabbard in his hand, Xu Qing nodded and bowed to thanks. He dedicated the method of steelmaking, and his purpose was very simple, that is, he wanted to equip his 3,000 men well. In addition, prepare a case here for Li Yuan, so that you can have the confidence to do something angry and kill people in the future. If people don't offend me, I don't offend anyone, if people offend me, I have the emperor as the backstage, and the whole family of you will offend.

After Xu Qing left, the imperial study issued one after another. Then, a large number of Imperial Forest troops appeared in the Ordnance Supervisor and surrounded the entire place, led by the guards Xu Qing had just met. Then, Lu Xuan and his group were taken to a secret place, of course, politely. The Imperial Guards strictly controlled the spread of steelmaking technology. Although paper can't hold the fire, why don't you let the Turks spread it after they are defeated?

At this time, some imperial historians received an edict and asked them to inspect the county seat three hundred miles around Chang'an. The snow is about to melt, and the spotting of a place for hoppers is imminent.

And Shantianzhuang, due to heavy snowfall, the project was stopped for a day, and then the snow was swept away, and the progress was stepped up.
