Li Xi hesitated after listening to Xiao Zhenlei's words, looked at the other members of the royal family, and said to Xiao Zhenlei: "The Führer's words are reasonable, but let them engage in these industries, I'm afraid they don't want to, and besides, if they go to these industries, aren't they competing for food with others?" If this spreads, the people will have to arrange our royal family again! ”

Xiao Zhenlei smoked a cigarette and smiled: "You didn't ask them, how do you know they don't want to?" In fact, let them do other industries, not only will not cause opposition from the people, but will make the people think that the members of the royal family have affinity, and it is not as unattainable as they imagined, which will also deepen the influence of the royal family in the people. ”

Li Xi looked at the other members of the royal family and asked: "You have all heard what the Führer said just now, if I decide to relax the restrictions on you now, in addition to politics and the military, are you willing to work on your own and engage in other industries to make a living?" ”

The expenses of the Joseon royal family are provided by the treasury of the Korean kingdom, and with the current economic situation of the DPRK, the daily expenses of these members of the Joseon royal family are not too rich, so many members of the royal family have long wanted to engage in other industries to increase their income, but they are limited to the royal family's regulations and can only think about it, now that there is this opportunity, of course they are willing, so the royal family members have expressed their willingness to engage in other industries to make a living, and they no longer need the state to provide for them.

These members of the Joseon royal family do not want hardcore crops, in fact, they are well aware that they have far more resources at their disposal than other families and nobles in Korea, if they use these resources. It has a natural advantage to stand at a higher starting point than others.

"I am willing to give up the royal family and devote myself to other professions. Feed yourself and make ends meet! ”

"I do, too!"

"I've thought so for a long time!"

The members of the royal family expressed their stance one after another, and Li Xi saw that most of the royal family members had this idea. Only a very small number did not take a stand, so he announced that some restrictions on members of the royal family would be removed, and that members of the royal family would be allowed to engage in other legitimate professions and support themselves in addition to politics and the military.

In terms of economy, Xiao Zhenlei supported Li Xi to increase investment in North Korea's local specialties, such as North Korea's most famous specialty is ginseng, which is a very important medicinal material in traditional Chinese medicine. It is also a tonic, and the demand for Korean ginseng in China and other Asian countries is very large, and if the ginseng is artificially cultivated and the export volume of ginseng is increased, there will be a large amount of foreign exchange coming in, Li Xi said that he would seriously consider Xiao Zhenlei's words.

After the talks, Li Xi hosted a banquet on behalf of the royal family to entertain Xiao Zhenlei and his party, and at the banquet, the royal family also arranged a song and dance performance. Beautiful Korean court ladies dressed in white breast-length dresses danced in the middle of the banquet hall, and everyone drank and admired.

After the banquet, Xiao Zhenlei stayed in a garden-style villa in the city, instead of living in Deoksugung Palace. Before leaving, Li Xi gave him three hundred-year-old mountain ginseng, which is relatively rare and still very precious. Xiao Zhenlei did not refuse, and let the accompanying staff accept it.

When I came out of Deoksugung Palace. Xiao Zhenlei was about to walk down the stairs when he heard a gunshot. I saw a staff member on his side with his brains splashing out, and the person quickly fell to the ground.

"There are assassins, there are assassins!" One person drank heavily.

The scene immediately became chaotic, especially the Korean palace attendants standing outside the palace gate, but the personnel on the Huaguo side were much calmer, seven or eight guards used their bodies to protect Xiao Zhenlei in the middle, and the officer in charge of security immediately took out pistols with more than a dozen security personnel and opened fire at the place where the gunfire came from, and divided a part to surround the house where the assassin was hiding.

After the assassination, although he was not injured, the assassin only hit the security personnel on his side, Xiao Zhenlei was still furious, he watched with a gloomy face as the guards surrounded the house where the assassin was hiding, and then looked at the Korean royal family members such as the Korean Emperor Li Xi and the Korean King Yi Kun, who were so frightened that they all lay on the ground with their heads in their hands.

Xiao Zhenlei said angrily: "Okay, the guards have gone to catch the assassins, get up, there is no danger now!" ”

Li Xi and Li Kun and other members of the royal family got up from the ground, Li Xi bent down and walked to Xiao Zhenlei's side with an embarrassed face and bowed: "Führer, it's all Xiao Wang's sin, I didn't expect someone to dare to assassinate under Lang Lang Qiankun??????

Xiao Zhenlei asked, "Li Xi, who do you think this assassin will be?" ”

"This ??????" Li Xi was puzzled: "Führer, Xiao Wang doesn't dare to speculate, everything will be clear after the assassin is caught, after interrogation!" ”

"Humph!" Xiao Zhenlei snorted coldly, "I was not assassinated in China, but why was I assassinated as soon as I came to North Korea?" Who among the North Koreans did not like me and wanted to kill me? Why didn't the assassins kill you and shoot me alone? ”

"Huh?" Li Xi was startled, and immediately knelt down with a thud, and Li Kun and other members of the North Korean royal family were also so frightened that they all knelt down.

"Führer, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with Xiao Wang and my royal family, how dare Xiao Wang do such a rebellious thing? Führer, although my Korea has driven out the Japanese and restored tranquility, there are still rebellions against Xiao Wang and my Li dynasty in the country, and these people even oppose the Führer, today's assassination, Xiao Wang believes that it must have something to do with these people! Please be enlightened! ”

Xiao Zhenlei looked at Li Xi and the others with a cold face, and said: "Who is the assassin, who is the main messenger behind it, it will be clear when the assassin is caught, I really won't leave today, come here, return to the palace, I'll wait here, catch the assassin, I'll leave again, I can't catch the assassin, I won't leave here!" ”

"Yes!"

Xiao Zhenlei and the others returned to the palace to drink tea and wait, sporadic gunshots came from outside the palace from time to time, and it didn't take long for the gunfire to stop completely, and a guard came in and reported: "President, the assassin has been caught!" ”

Xiao Zhenlei asked, "How many people are there?" ”

"There are three of them, one is responsible for shooting, the other is covering, and there is a lookout, all three of them have guns on them, and at present, Wangfeng has been killed by us, and the remaining two are injured and captured, and they are being escorted over!"

Xiao Zhenlei stood up and said: "No need to be escorted over, find the best doctor to treat their injuries, and start interrogation while treating their injuries, to see if this assassination they organized was on their own, or if someone was behind it, if someone instigated, who was the instigator!" I'll give you some time to relax, a week, a week to know the results! ”

"Yes, President!"

Xiao Zhenlei then went to inspect the Chinese military base in Pyongyang, which is located near the airport and is connected to the airport, which is convenient for protecting the airport on the one hand, and facilitating the transportation of materials on the other hand.

Xiao Zhenlei and his entourage walked in the base, checking the situation along the way, the barracks in the base were lined up one by one, arranged very neatly, and there were soldiers training on the playground, on the road, and at the barracks gate, some queue training, and some tactical training.

Xiao Zhenlei asked as he walked: "How many troops are currently stationed in this base?" ”

Cai Yi said: "There is a regiment of troops stationed, we have deployed a total of one division in North Korea, an infantry regiment is here, the other two infantry regiments are in Seoul and Busan, there is also a running regiment in Incheon, a cavalry regiment near Seoul, and other auxiliary troops are stationed in Seoul with the division headquarters!" ”

Xiao Zhenlei said casually: "The number of garrisons is almost enough, but the strength of the security department in North Korea is too poor, for these assassins and rebels, we must increase the intensity of the attack, what about Hu Weishan?" ”

Hu Weishan is the director of the Internal Investigation Bureau, and he was following the crowd at this time, and immediately trotted over after hearing Xiao Zhenlei call his name, "President, you called me?" ”

Xiao Zhenlei pointed at him and said: "Today's assassination, you, the director of the Internal Investigation Bureau, have an unshirkable responsibility, your Internal Investigation Bureau's combat strength in North Korea is too poor, if you put more effort here, it is impossible for this situation to occur today!" Did you hear anything from you before the assassination? ”

"No, no, subordinates are incompetent!" Hu Weishan replied with a ashamed look on his face, the Internal Investigation Bureau did not receive the slightest relevant news, he did not dare to lie in front of Xiao Zhenlei, it is not okay to lie, this kind of thing lying in front of Xiao Zhenlei is tantamount to self-destruction of the future, and it is possible to be forgiven if he admits his mistakes calmly.

Xiao Zhenlei looked at Hu Weishan for a long time, and sighed: "I'll give you another chance, the work of interrogating the assassins and finding out the main messenger behind the scenes is entrusted to your Internal Investigation Bureau, and if you can't find it out within seven days, you will pack up your things and leave, go home and farm!" ”

Hu Weishan immediately stood up and said: "Yes, the subordinates must find out the instigator behind it within the specified time!" ”

In the next few days, Xiao Zhenlei advanced to the south of Korea, inspecting the transportation situation and the development of industry and agriculture in North Korea along the way.

In terms of industry, North Korea is basically the same as the Qing Dynasty in the past, basically there is no industry, not even a foundation, and some are only some workshops.

Later, Xiao Zhenlei inspected the garrisons stationed in Seoul and Busan, the garrisons in these two places are relatively easy in the garrison task, at present there are no hostile forces in Korea, only the garrison stationed in Japan has a much heavier garrison task, Japanese society is still very chaotic, the social security situation is not very good, there are often some stubborn Japanese who support militarism gather to make trouble, this has increased the garrison task of the garrison, in view of this situation, Xiao Zhenlei's instructions are to send more intelligence agencies and strike forces, There is no mercy on such people.
