Chapter 234: Li Yuan's Hypocrisy
"My lord's benevolence and righteousness, in the Guan Long family, is the most likely threat to the imperial power. That's why the emperor will doubt the adult. Don't forget jì, the adult is surnamed Li. Samurai said in a low voice.
"Let's have a drink! There is nothing better than being drunk and dreaming of death. Li Yuan sighed and said, "The emperor has been suspicious of me for a long time!" Although this time it was to vent his anger for Li Xin, he actually didn't believe me. There is no one in the Guan Long family who can make him believe it. ”
"This is the only way to deceive the emperor." Samurai Tong nodded and said.
"Xue Ju is really stupid, otherwise how could such a thing happen?" Li Yuan was very annoyed and said: "A small ambush can't be handled, but this time it has fulfilled Li Xin." What an abomination! ”
Wu Shi Tong's face was stunned, he knew that he might know a big secret, Li Xin was ambushed, and if he couldn't get it, Li Yuan came up with the idea behind his back. He felt a chill in his heart, Li Xin was also his son-in-law, and for his own interests, he even betrayed his son-in-law.
"Father." Outside the door, Li Shimin walked in, glanced at Wu Shi Tong, and his eyes flashed with a trace of disdain, no matter what, for this kind of businessman, Li Shimin didn't value a businessman like Wu Shi Tong very much in his heart. After all, Li Shimin at this time was not the emperor of later generations, and the young Li Shimin still had the simplest ideas in the world.
"Erlang, is Siniang still making trouble?" Li Yuan snorted coldly. Li Zhiwan stayed in Honghua, although the time had come, Li Yuan still did not let her leave Honghua. It's just that at this time, Li Yuan just doesn't want to let go.
"Siniang is still making trouble." Li Shimin nodded and said, "Father, will you let her go?" ”
"What if you don't let her go?" Li Yuan sighed slightly: "Daughter, hehe, the water spilled by the married daughter is not wrong at all, Siniang is no longer the Siniang of our Li family." ”
"Father, did Li Xin escape?" One of the issues that Li Shimin was very worried about was whether Li Xin had arrived in Jincheng safely.
"Li Xin has reached Jincheng and defeated Xue Ju's tens of thousands of bandits. It has entered Jincheng and completed the handover of Jincheng's government affairs. Li Yuan said with some disdain: "Although I don't know what Li Xin will do next, it is certain that Li Xin will definitely take a big move against Jincheng." It is almost impossible to restrain Li Xin. ”
"So what, the Western Regions are vast and sparsely populated, and if Li Xin wants to develop the Western Regions, I'm afraid he needs the support of the Central Plains." Li Shimin thought for a while and said: "What my father has to do is to besiege Li Xin in the Western Regions, and he can't let him develop too fast. ”
"It's hard to restrain him, because it's supported by the emperor." Li Yuan shook his head and said: "However, Li Xin wants to develop the Western Regions in a short period of time, he really needs our support, the situation in the Western Regions is complicated, not only the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions, but more importantly, the Western Turks, this is the most important, Li Xin wants to deal with the Western Turks, it is impossible for him to have so many soldiers and horses." ”
"What does Father mean?" Li Shimin said in a low voice.
"He needs to train soldiers, not only about money, but also about weapons, does he have a weapon system in the Western Regions? The imperial court would not approve of him making weapons. As many soldiers and horses the emperor gave him, the military department would give him as many weapons as he wanted. Li Yuan said with a smile: "The emperor will not give him too many weapons, let alone allow him to make weapons privately, once he makes them privately, it is a conspiracy to rebel." At that time, even if the emperor could allow it, the civil and military ministers in the court would not agree. A small pariah also wants to become a master, so what are we in the family, the survival of the family is not only different in money and power, but more importantly, it is the heritage, Li Xin will never succeed. ”
"The fourth mother?" Li Shimin said with some worry: "Siniang is making a lot of trouble in the back!" ”
"If she wants to go, let her go! I can't let the world say that I, Li Yuan, are treacherous, Li Xin, I want to see how you were dragged into the quagmire by the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions in the end. How was it wiped out by the Western Turks. Li Yuan's face was gloomy, and he said to Wu Shi Tong: "Within the Jingshi, there is a Yijin Hall, which may have a lot to do with Li Xin, you have to find a way to figure out the situation inside, and now it is a person named Dou Yi who is in charge, although it is said that there is Princess Nanyang behind it, but if you want to do things that are beneficial to the common people such as papermaking and printing, how can you let the princess do it alone, and our family can also contribute." Go and see if you can buy back the secrets of papermaking and printing. My Li family can't lag behind others in this regard! Also, go find where Chai Shao is! Siniang is already married, Chai Shao may not know it yet! ”
"Yes, my subordinates will do it." Samurai knew that the so-called purchase was actually to steal and rob. Li Yuan just took a fancy to the potential of the two and wanted to get it himself, but is this kind of thing really easy to do? Wu Shi Tong felt that he was under a lot of pressure, but since Li Yuan had given the order, he could only take it. More importantly, he sensed that there were other meanings in Li Yuan's words, and he wanted to go back and think about it seriously and experience it. At that moment, he quickly and respectfully retreated.
"Erlang, Xue Ju ambushed Li Xin, Li Xin actually made preparations for a long time, so in the end, Xue Ju failed to ambush, but was defeated by Li Xin, with huge losses, I'm afraid there will be no chance to trouble Li Xin in a short time." Li Yuan said in a low voice.
"Father thinks that Li Xin got the news in advance, and this news was revealed to him by our people?" Li Shimin immediately understood the meaning of Li Yuan's words, he shook his head and said: "Father is suspicious of the auxiliary machine, this is impossible, if the auxiliary machine wants to betray us, it will not take refuge in us, maybe it is something else, such as Li Xin himself, or it may be the Pei family, Pei Shiju has been operating in the Western Regions for so many years, and I don't know how many shadows he has laid down, although Xue Ju was born in Jincheng, but when it comes to his background in the Western Regions, he is still not as good as Pei Shiju, if Pei Shiju helps Li Xin, Xue Ju is definitely not his opponent." ”
"I hope so, it's just Erlang! Although the auxiliary machine did not take refuge in Li Xin, but it is not surnamed Li, do you have to figure this out? Li Yuan said seriously: "The eldest grandson Wujian is married to Li Xin, the eldest grandson brother and sister have a good relationship, Erlang, do you think the auxiliary machine will really seriously assist our Li family?" Comparatively speaking, Li Xin is more worthy of his service. ”
"Father, I understand." Although Li Shimin did not agree with Li Yuan's method of employing people, at this time, he had to admit that at this stage, it was still the most reliable to use people surnamed Li.
"However, we can't make the auxiliary machine feel that something is wrong, his Thunderbolt Hall is still very useful to us." Li Yuan thought for a while and said, "After all, he is your friend, and we must treat him well." Jiro, do you remember? ”
"The child understands." Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and quickly nodded. Li Yuan used his words to tell Li Shimin how to use people.
