Chapter 249 - Decision (Guaranteed Subscription 2)
Li Ji can actually come back faster, but first, he needs to keep it secret, and second, Li Ji needs to sort out everything he sees and hears on the road, so he doesn't have much time to rush every day, and after almost finishing everything, Li Ji rushed back to Chang'an.
After returning to Chang'an, Li Ji didn't even go back to his home, because no one knew about his return to Chang'an, he came directly from a secret mansion in Chang'an to see Li Er.
When Li Er saw Li Ji, he almost couldn't recognize it, Li Ji's skin was dark, and his beard was renewed, his hair was messy, and he was wearing ordinary clothes, if it wasn't brought over by Chang Lin, it is estimated that Li Er would not dare to recognize Li Ji when he saw Li Ji outside.
"Mao Gong has suffered." Li Er stood up directly from his immediate position.
"Your Majesty's words are serious, this is the duty of a minister." Li Ji hurriedly bent down to salute Li Shimin.
"Give me a seat and serve tea." Li Er said directly.
Chang Lin personally went to prepare these things, while Li Ji quickly took out two thick books from his arms, which he personally made and copied on the way, and handed them to Li Er with both hands, Li Ji quickly said: "Your Majesty, after the minister arrived in Suoyang City, he chose to secretly go to Huo Gang's territory as soon as possible, after all, it is better to be famous than to meet." ”
"And there is everything the minister saw and heard on it, as well as what the minister talked to him about when he finally met Huo Gang."
"Oh?" Li Er raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect Li Ji to see Huo Gang so soon.
He didn't speak at the moment, he directly took the two books handed over by Li Ji, and sat back in his place to check it out for himself.
Chang Lin served Li Ji tea, Li Ji drank the tea silently and did not speak, while Li Er looked at the book in his hand equally seriously, but the more he looked at his expression, the more serious it became, Li Er's expression kept changing, and Li Ji couldn't see anything from Li Er's expression.
Because he didn't know what Li Er was thinking, but he recorded everything he saw, including all the details of his meeting with Huo Gang, and all the words that Huo Gang said.
Time kept passing, Li Er looked very seriously, about an hour, Li Er finished reading everything, after reading, Li Er raised his head and looked at Li Ji, took a deep breath, and asked in a serious tone: "Here, is it all Mao Gong saw with his own eyes?" Heard of it with your own ears? ”
"Every sentence is true, the minister does not dare to deceive His Majesty." Li Ji also said with a serious expression.
Hearing Li Ji's confirmation, Li Er's breathing became heavy, and he didn't speak, but his thoughts thought a lot, thinking of what he had experienced in the past year.
Li Er's expression was very calm, but his heart was not calm at all, the content written in Li Ji, if the things encountered in Huo Gang's territory and the things shown could show that Huo Gang was a talented person, then the words that Huo Gang said in the end made Li Er feel extremely amazed, and he was covered in a cold sweat.
Because he never thought that there would be a person who knew him so well, and not only knew him so well, that he could say almost everything he wanted, even things that he wanted to do, but could not do.
These things, such as Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, may not know what he thinks, but the man who is thousands of miles away and has not yet reached the crown does. And a lot of things have been said in his heart, and there are even some ...... He didn't expect it, but the other party said it.
What is this? Thinking of the other things that Li Ji wrote about the other things that the other party made, could it be that there are really people in this world who are born to know? This is really a genius who governs the world! It's just that such a person is destined to miss him Li Er.
However, this does not mean that he Li Shimin has no chance, just like Huo Gang said, he Li Shimin really wants to compare himself to Emperor Qin and Han Wu, is this wrong? Could it be that he, Li Shimin, even dared to be the emperor, and didn't even have the courage to chase after Emperor Qin and Han Wu?!
It's just that the exploits of Emperor Qin and Han Wu are not so easy to chase! Expanding territory is not so easy to do!
But since he has the heart to compare with Emperor Qin and Han Wu, at the very least, he, Li Shimin, must have the same courage as them! He Li Shimin doesn't know if he can compare, but he Li Shimin does not lack courage!
"I'll go see him." Li Shimin looked at Li Ji and said categorically.
Although he was already prepared in his heart, when he really heard this decision, Li Ji's hand still trembled, he knew that if Li Er made such a decision, it meant that all the things that Huo Gang guessed were correct!
But he Li Jidu never thought that his majesty would have such a grand ideal.
"I am willing to share my Majesty's worries!" Li Ji took a deep breath, stood up directly, and then knelt down and saluted! Datang doesn't kneel, but for Li Ji, he knows very well that this time is not just this time to share worries, which means that he, Li Ji, will put all his net worth and life on his majesty in his life.
This is a statement!
"Mao Gong, please! If there is Mao Gong to share my worries, I will be much more relieved. Li Shimin personally helped Li Ji up, of course Li Shimin knew what Li Ji meant. Because these two books were written by Li Ji, then if you agree to come down, then Li Ji will naturally know what you think.
"But Your Majesty, if Your Majesty wants to go to the Western Regions, this excuse is not easy to find." Li Ji pondered for a moment, frowned slightly and said.
"There's nothing hard to find, this year, there is a famine in the world, Guannei, and Liangzhou, I know that the world is not in the right position, so I am punished by God, but I am willing to inspect the hungry people in the world on behalf of the sky, if God blames me, I will bear it! Spare the people from heaven's punishment! Li Er's words were categorical, "These words, I can spread the world!" ”
"Your Majesty!" Li Er's words made Li Ji feel a little excited, because it meant ...... Li Er is willing to make an edict for the sake of this world!
"Mao Gong, you don't have to worry about how I go to the Western Regions, I will do this myself, you still have important things to do." Li Er took a deep breath and spoke.
"Your Majesty, please order."
"You work hard, return to the Western Regions immediately, you have to plan in advance that I may meet Huo Gang in private, I can't meet Huo Gang openly, if I meet Huo Gang openly, An Xinggui will definitely know, when the whole Liangzhou doesn't know what kind of riot will occur, when the time comes, I will send Chai Shao to prepare the palace for me first, how to operate, you discuss with Chai Shao."
"Your Majesty met Huo Gang in private, I'm afraid it's unlikely. It is unlikely that Huo Gang will appear in our Datang territory, and the contradiction between him and An Xinggui makes him not believe in the entire Datang, even if the trade volume between the Li clan in Longxi and him is so large. Li Ji frowned slightly, this matter could not be solved by Li Shimin leaving the palace without permission.
"I can go to the Jade Gate Pass to see him!" Li Shimin said with a grim face.
"No way!" Li Ji was shocked! What are you kidding, Li Shimin ran to see Huo Gang? Let's not talk about whether he Huo Gang has that qualification, let's just say, how can Li Shimin's safety be guaranteed when he goes to see Huo Gang! That's Huo Gang's territory! Once Li Shimin goes, it means that all life and death are in Huo Gang's hands.
If Huo Gang has evil intentions, it means that Li Shimin will definitely not come back alive!
"Hahaha! Nothing is not okay! Didn't he want to see me, Li Shimin? I, Li Shimin, dare to see him, I want to see if he dares to touch me! Didn't you say that? Huo Gang is a person who does great things, I admit that his troops are very strong, but can thousands of elite soldiers be the front of hundreds of thousands of soldiers in my Datang Dynasty?! Li Shimin laughed a few times, then waved his hand directly, and said in a heroic tone.
Now that the decision has been made, he Li Shimin is not hesitating, there is nothing to hesitate, he has not led troops to fight, the cavalry back then, he Li Shimin still charged on the front line, he is not afraid of going to the battlefield, there is no reason to be afraid of him Huo Gang.
"No way!" Li Ji shook his head directly, he couldn't agree with anything.
"I have made up my mind, you should know that this is our opportunity, an opportunity to lay the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, you should know that if all the poor families in the world have books to read, not only the family gate, this means how many more talents will I have in Datang?!"
"If I don't come back, I'm sure you can avenge me!" Li Shimin's tone became calm.
Li Ji took a deep look at Li Shimin, and after a long time, he knelt directly on one knee, and said loudly with a military salute with armor: "If Your Majesty has three long and two short, the minister promises that the minister wants Huo Gang's entire territory, and the chickens and dogs will not be left!" ”
"Good! I am relieved to have your words, you don't have to worry about the affairs of Chang'an, you should rush back to Yumen Pass now, this matter should be sooner rather than later, now there is a famine in various places, I want to travel, it will take a long time just to prepare, and it is impossible to go straight to Dunhuang, and I will rush back before the end of autumn. ”
"Command!" Li Ji saluted directly, stood up quickly, and then turned to leave.
Chang Lin left here directly with Li Ji, and about half an hour later, Chang Lin, who sent Li Ji away, returned to the Liangyi Palace, and after Chang Lin came back, Li Er said directly: "Drive the Chengqing Palace." ”
"Yes!" Chang Lin was slightly stunned, but immediately bent down and saluted.
Li Shimin's face returned to normal, and Li Shimin carried the two books with him.
Chengqing Palace, is one of the side halls of Taiji Palace, once Li Shimin also lived here, but after the change of Xuanwu Gate, the abdicated Li Yuan and his concubines lived here, but Li Shimin has not seen Li Yuan for a long time, to be precise, since the change of Xuanwu Gate, Li Shimin has not seen Li Yuan.
