There was silence in the hall for a while, and even Liu Chenglong, who had always been good at giving advice to Li Hao, lowered his head and pondered at this time, not knowing what he was thinking.

In this way, Li Hao became more and more anxious, and hurriedly asked: "Now that the envoy surnamed Shen has not yet known where to go, the mission can delay it...... But how can I explain to the officials...... Mr. Zhou, you know that too. ”

How did Liu Chenglong not know the status of Lord Zhou in the Li Dynasty, both the easterners and the westerners had always respected him very much, and now although the easterners eased down under his persuasion, the westerners were shouting and killing for more than a day or two.

Among the Westerners, there are quite a few senator-level figures, and most of those officials are well-off, and even if His Majesty sees some of them today, he must be very respectful.

Compared with the Easterners, it is much worse, there are many newcomers in the Easterners, these scholars from poor backgrounds are young and vigorous, and they dare to compete with the elders in the West, which is indispensable for the continuous support of His Majesty today.

It's just that the imperial court is not the emperor's own decision after all, His Majesty has only been on the throne for a few years, and those old ministers have been in the imperial court for many years. Therefore, if the emperor wants to make some moves, he must also involve the opinions of hundreds of officials.

Now that the situation is like this, the Westerners want to clear up relations with the Ming Dynasty and unite with Japan, but many people in the Easterners have wavered in their minds.

"At this time, the people of our dawn are involved...... Wechen can only point out a few points of understanding, but the substantive issues are very involved...... The jury is still ......"

"Say." Li Hao immediately responded, and then glanced at Liu Chenglong, who was standing respectfully under His Royal Highness, and sneered in his heart, secretly thinking about you people fighting back and forth, when did you worry about the country?

Just thinking like this, he also knew that he had not been on the throne for a long time, and he was not the opponent of these old ministers. There was a Lord Zhou who helped him before, but now he can only rely on this seemingly shrewd Liu Chenglong to help.

Liu Chenglong sighed again, and then said in a deep voice: "I'm not afraid to explain...... Today, the Chinese and Westerners in the imperial court support breaking away from the shackles of the Ming Dynasty and cooperating with the Wa State......"

After a little hesitation, he handed a letter in his sleeve to his father-in-law on the side, presented it to Emperor Li Hao, and then continued: "This is a letter sent by the Jurchens...... The idea of the Westerners is that since the founding of the country, our Li Dynasty has been subject to the Ming Dynasty, and there are some benefits, but they only come by praying...... For many years, I have groveled, and even my king has to ask him for advice on how humiliating it is. Why not sit on an equal footing with the Japanese Jurchens and even the Mongol tribes...... Even if you don't, you can help Japan survive the fake Dao Vaming...... I, Li Chao, can just sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman. ”

Although the words were very peaceful in Liu Chenglong's mouth, they were enough to shock everyone in the audience.

Get rid of the shackles of the Ming Dynasty for a hundred years, do not pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, destroy the Ming Dynasty with the power of the surrounding departments, and take the opportunity to become a big ...... What a temptation.

Even Li Hao couldn't speak for a long time, as the emperor of the Li Dynasty, how could he not have such ambitions. It's just that how can Li Chao be compared with the Ming Dynasty, so this heart can be had, but it can't be done.

He was silent for a long time before pursing his lips, barely stabilizing his mind, and said in a deep voice: "What do you think of this idea?" ”

"It's just a joke." Liu Chenglong smiled faintly, ignoring Li Hao's surprised gaze, and said coldly: "I, Li Dynasty, am a minister and a tribute to the Ming Dynasty, and my Majesty will ask the Ming Dynasty for instructions when he ascends the throne...... But in essence, when paying tribute every year, in fact, there is less and more income...... As for the matter of asking for instructions, it's just a matter of the situation...... In addition, Japan and Jurchen Mongolia are both tigers and wolves, once the conquest of the Ming Dynasty is successful, how can I allow my little Li Dynasty to divide it with him? …… Won't my lips and teeth be cold? ”

In just one sentence, he suddenly took Li Hao to the sky, and then threw him to the ground in an instant, and he quickly understood that Liu Chenglong's later sentence was right, and he was really no stranger to Li Chao for a few catties and taels.

Don't say that the provinces after the annexation of the Ming Dynasty are now that the Li Dynasty wants to deal with them, and it still has to rely on the Ming Dynasty.

"I see." Li Hao's mood was obviously a little low, but he was already sitting on the top of the hall, and asked, "What about the current situation in the DPRK and China...... And how? ”

"The situation in the DPRK and China is based on the faction of Qingyangjun and the faction of Kim Hyo-won...... Your Majesty is measurable. Liu Chenglong silently lowered his head and stood respectfully to the side and waited.

Li Hao's originally calm face instantly turned red again, the so-called Qingyang Jun is the head of the Westerners, Shen Yiqian, the elder of the three dynasties, and his disciples are all over the court, and he is also the younger brother of Queen Renshun, who is now in power.

Although Li Hao is now the emperor, Queen Renshun has actually listened to the government for many years, even if it has improved slightly in recent years, she still has to be restrained by these people.

Therefore, he also secretly cultivated a group of young officials, among which Kim Hyo-won was one of the prominent people.

Jin Xiaoyuan has been promoted to three ranks in a year, and now he is already an important minister of the imperial court, and he can vaguely compete with Shen Yiqian and his ilk.

"If you kill the person surnamed Shen, you will offend the Ming Dynasty, and if you don't kill it, you can't explain it to the officials...... It's not to kill, it's not to kill...... But how is it good to let me? ”

Liu Chenglong slowly raised his head, glanced at Li Hao meaningfully, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty can send someone to send the news back to Daming, and hand it over to Daming to decide...... In this way, even if Qingyang-jun and his faction are unwilling...... There is nothing to be done. ”

Li Hao and others are saying this, but the words can't come from his mouth, as the king of a country, if he says so, it is suspected of insulting the country's prestige, so he can only let Liu Chenglong say it.

"Aiqing, this also makes sense...... That...... Tell me the will...... Then why don't you let Qingyangjun inform the Ming envoy of this matter? ”

……

In the southwest corner of Gyeongbokgung Palace, there is a lavishly decorated pavilion, which is no less luxurious than the palace courtyards on one side, and the princes and nobles live in Pingsuri, but these days they live with the envoys from the Ming Dynasty and the Japanese state respectively.

Compared with the Japanese Mission, the Ming Mission is really a bit shabby. In addition to the seven dry carriages and seven coachmen, there was only one messenger and one servant.

On the contrary, there was a chief envoy and a deputy envoy of the Japanese mission, as well as dozens of civilian officials, and a large number of guards accompanying him.

All this was really uncomfortable in the eyes of the bearded old man in a small building.

"My majesty was swept away like this...... Look at how conscious Li Chao is, when he sees that I am going to the kingdom tomorrow, he has not been summoned yet...... Really angry old man......"

"If it weren't for Lord Yang taking advantage, we wouldn't have encountered that vicious battle, the soldiers of the three major battalions wouldn't have died innocently, and the adults accompanying us wouldn't have died unexpectedly...... Now Lord Shen is nowhere to be seen...... "The person who spoke was a man with a strong body, and he looked at the old man next to him with a look of resentment, as if he was reproachful.
