Chapter 614: It's Better to See Each Other Than Not to See (2)

The emperor turned his head to look at Li Yu and Du Hongjian with a calm face, and said coldly: "What do you think?" ”

Li Mi sighed lightly: "Your Majesty, this time Princess Su's conditions can be agreed to at most one." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Mo Yansi has abdicated, although the abdication is forced to be helpless, but Ye Hu has taken over the power of Hui for some time, and he wants to return to Su to replace him, I'm afraid it is not so easy. Moreover, His Majesty can ostensibly agree to let him return to the court, but secretly control him in Chang'an, and delay him for at least a year and a half before returning him to Mobei. I can't turn up any waves, please let Your Majesty know! ”

The emperor nodded slowly, and snorted, "I also think so. That grinding and sipping is insignificant, I can promise to let him go back and return to Mobei, but there is no need to rush for a while. I will try my best to keep him in Chang'an, and after three or two years, it doesn't matter whether he returns or not. ”

Du Hong smiled slightly, bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty Shengming!" ”

The emperor's eyes widened: "But the second condition, I actually want to ask me for the artifact artillery, this is simply a whimsical and foolish dream, I can never agree!" ”

Li Mi smiled: "The art of artillery is related to the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, how can it be easily handed over to the Hui barbarians." That Hui Su people are simple-minded, and I am afraid that they don't realize the crux of the problem - Your Majesty doesn't have to be anxious, let the ministers go to mediate with Princess Hui again, state the stakes, and believe that Mo Yansi will make a wise choice! ”

Du Hong gradually hesitated for a moment and then resolutely said: "Your Majesty, the minister is worried, if the princess of Hui Hui marries Kong Sheng, after all, it is convenient to act between the sheets, if she obtains the art of cannon casting from Kong Sheng and passes it back to Hui Hui, I am afraid it will ......."

The emperor's face changed and became uncertain.

Du Hongji's words were exactly what he was worried about now. Although Kong Sheng seems to be incompatible with the princess of Hui, the two are just to maintain a superficial friendly alliance between the two countries, but no one can say anything about the affairs between men and women.

But it shouldn't ...... Kong Sheng should not do such a traitorous thing. On the one hand, the emperor made such a judgment based on his understanding of Kong Sheng, but on the other hand, his suspicion as the emperor himself made him undecided.

The art of artillery is the most important thing for the emperor at present, and the degree of attention is almost no less than the defense and preservation of his own throne. But if you want to be foolproof, you must dig out the art of cannon casting from Kong Sheng, and then kill Kong Sheng...... But this kind of thing, the emperor just thinks about it, and it is impossible to really do it.

From this point of view, the emperor still lacked the same ruthlessness as his father and grandfather. If it was the old emperor Li Longji, maybe this would not be a problem. But for Li Heng, it's a problem.

More importantly, Li Heng knew that the reason why Kong Sheng delayed handing over the art of artillery casting was nothing more than to protect himself. Whether it is the emperor or Kong Sheng, they are actually looking for a suitable solution to avoid irreconcilability. Not yet, at least.

One more point. Kong Sheng's unfathomable profundity is gradually revealed, often without borders. Just when the emperor thought that he had seen through Kong Sheng, Kong Sheng showed a shocking side - from this point of view, the emperor was even more worried that it might not be a good thing because of the art of artillery and Kong Sheng's poor dagger, or because of a small loss. If Kong Sheng still has something more amazing than artillery, then how can the emperor be embarrassed?

As soon as he thought of this, the emperor waved his hand resolutely and said: "Kong Sheng is extremely loyal to the Tang Dynasty and me, and he will definitely not do anything to sell the world because of a mere Hui woman, so as to leave a stench for 10,000 years." I know Kong Sheng, I also believe in Kong Sheng, Du Hongji, this is no longer mentioned, I should not have heard it. ”

Du Hong smiled awkwardly, bowed, and stepped aside. He said in his heart, the old man was a villain, but he didn't expect the emperor to trust Kong Sheng so much.

The emperor turned his head and glanced at Zhu Huiguang intentionally or unintentionally, and the great eunuch Zhu Huiguang hung his head in fear, shivering. He knew what the emperor was warning him, and he would never mention anything about today's events to outsiders. This made Zhu Huiguang even more shocked, Kong Sheng's position in the emperor's mind was irreplaceable, and no one could shake it.

"Li Mi, if you go to negotiate with that Hui person again, you will say that I can agree, let me return to Mobei, but this is the only one, I will not agree to any request for an inch! In addition, you might as well tell them that I have completely good intentions, but I also have limited patience, if they don't know what to do, then don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless! The emperor snorted coldly, got up and brushed his sleeves away.

Li Mi knew what the emperor was hinting at, so he left the imperial study with Du Hongji.

When leaving the palace, Du Hong gradually looked at Li Yu and sighed: "Li Xiang, that Hui people are ambitious and ill-intentioned, and have no credibility at all. If they don't know how to advance and retreat and anger Your Majesty, I'm afraid that they will never leave Chang'an again for the rest of their lives. ”

Li Mi smiled slightly: "The old man is thinking about it, and he has always said that the Hui people are simple-minded, but judging from this matter, this time the Princess Su City Mansion is deep and not simple, and he actually knows how to advance and retreat, which makes the old man impressed." ”

Du Hong was gradually surprised: "You mean ......?"

She knew that there was no possibility of getting artillery, but she still deliberately offered it as a condition, so why did she come? It's nothing more than to welcome the grinding and sipping back to the north of the desert! She was worried that if she raised this matter directly, His Majesty would obviously not grant permission, so she attached an outrageous condition, one was a temptation, and the other was to protect the other and fight for one. Her condition is actually one, put it and sip it. Such scheming amazed the old man. Li Mi lowered his voice and said: "But you don't have to worry too much, although this time Princess Su is not simple, but it is still not comparable to Kong Sheng, if she wants to turn the clouds and rain around Kong Sheng, she can only ask for hardship." ”

Du Hong gradually realized: "I see! From this point of view, this time Princess Su is not an ordinary woman, it is Du who underestimates her. ”

Li Mi shook his head: "The old man is worried that there is another master behind him. From this woman recklessly breaking into Chang'an, turning clouds and rain in the palace, to now retreating into advance, it seems that someone is manipulating behind her back. Obviously, this person can't be Mo Yansi, so who will it be? ”

"The grasshopper shakes the tree, but it can only be beyond its own strength." Du Hong smiled disappreciatively: "You go and persuade Princess Hui, Du still go to Kong Sheng's side." ”

Li Mi smiled: "Okay, you and I will act separately and deal with it as soon as possible to avoid extraneous branches and regeneration." ”

Li Mi and Du Hong gradually broke up outside the palace gate, going their separate ways. Li Mi went to the Khan's Mansion in Moyansi, but Du Hongjian went straight to the Chang'an Marquis Mansion, which is now the Jiangning County Palace. The plaque given by the emperor is being made by the Ministry of Rites and has not been distributed for the time being. For this matter, the Ministry of Rites is not in a hurry, and Kong Sheng doesn't care. (To be continued.) )
