Chapter 2 Questioning
"Stop!"
At this time, a burly military general in the court, staring at his eyes the size of copper bells, shouted at Li Zhong.
This person is a well-known general in the Tang Army, Cheng Biting Jin!
Li Zhong was not frightened at all, but sneered and said:
"The grass people are just here to talk about business, but you are so nervous, you don't want to deal with the thousands of unarmed people in our Lijiazhuang, right?"
"Let him go!"
Li didn't seem to hear the words, waved his hand directly, and said with a cloudy face.
After hearing Li Shimin's order, Cheng Yanjin stopped stopping and let Li Zhong walk out of the hall.
After walking out of the palace, Li Zhong got into a carriage that had been waiting here.
On the carriage, a young man wearing a brocade robe, with a sword-eyed and starry appearance, was sitting quietly with his eyes closed.
"How's it going?"
After seeing Li Zhong get into the carriage, Li Hao slowly opened his eyes and asked.
"Fortunately, I don't disgrace my life, and I have already finished explaining my son!"
"Childe, didn't you see the battle in the court just now, but it frightened me, and I felt like I had walked in the underworld!"
"What are you afraid of!"
Li Hao sneered and said disappreliantly:
"It's just a deal, but if you can't talk about a deal, how can they dare to do it to you?"
"Even if they leave you behind, Ben Gongzi will rescue you!"
The reason why Li Hao is so confident is because he has crossed over from modern society and activated the golden finger of the system.
At the beginning, Li Hao didn't be happy for long, and the system issued him a task to cheat.
The system actually asked him to buy the entire land around Lijiazhuang for a hundred miles, and the land enclosure was king!
Li Hao was originally startled when he saw the content of the system, this is the rhythm of rebellion!
After all, what emperor allowed a state within a state to appear within his country?
Not to mention the wise and martial Li Shimin!
But then he thought about it, he was reborn, and he got the golden finger, and it was boring to succumb to people to live!
When the emperor doesn't want to, he is too tired, enclosure is the king, not subject to the control of the heavens, not subject to the control of the earth, happy and happy, this is the best!
Over the years, with the rewards of the system, Li Hao quickly managed Lijiazhuang like a paradise.
Zhuangzi hoarded countless grains and other supplies, and he became a powerful party.
Everything he did was waiting for this opportunity to negotiate conditions with Li Shimin!
Now, the Datang snow disaster, famine, and plague are raging at the same time, and Li Hao finally waited for the opportunity, so he shot directly!
He knew that Li Shimin trusted Li Junxian very much,
Therefore, he first spent a lot of money to buy off Li Junxian's subordinates and asked him to help him introduce him to Li Shimin.
However, he didn't want to pay Li Shimin the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, so he sent Li Zhong to the court to negotiate with Li Shimin.
In his opinion, as long as the price is high, he is not afraid that Li Shimin will not agree.
Li Hao put away his thoughts, raised his hand and instructed Li Zhong:
"It's getting late, let's go back."
……
Imperial Palace, Wude Hall.
After Li Zhong left the palace, the ministers in the court all had a look of injustice on their faces.
A country wild man, who dared to make such a rebellious request in the court,
Also boasting about others, making a lot of nonsense!
Li Shimin is also open-minded, let him leave, otherwise he will be punished by the nine clans!
At this moment, Li Shimin, who has always been wise and martial, also looked a little trance-like.
I saw him twist his eyebrows and glance at the important minister, and then asked in a deep voice:
"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think about what happened just now?"
As soon as the words fell, the ministers shook their heads one after another without thinking and denied it, thinking that Li Zhong was making a big deal just now!
Wei Zheng, who has an upright personality and dares to speak out, took the lead in standing up and admonished with righteous words:
"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that what Li Zhong said just now is all nonsense, and he can't believe it at all!"
Even if what Li Zhong said is true, it is not difficult to see that Li Hao is a wolf with ambition and ill intentions.
On the surface, he is a rich man who generously contributes to the country, but in fact he is likely to be a spy sent by the Turks! ”
"Once Your Majesty agrees to his plea of enclosure for the king, Li Hao is very likely to secretly station troops and fornicate with foreign enemies!"
"When the Turks go south, when the time comes, we will be in danger of Datang!"
"This matter is related to the Tang Dynasty and the society, please Your Majesty Mingjian!"
When Wei Zheng advised, the whole person showed a look of worrying about the country and the people, and tears were falling.
The ministers of the court were all moved when they heard this, and they all nodded noncommittally to express their reconsideration.
Immediately afterwards, when the eldest grandson Wuji, the uncle of the dynasty, also stood up and earnestly advised Li Shimin:
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen thinks that Lord Wei is reasonable!"
"Even if Li Hao has this ability, His Majesty will sell him the land within a hundred miles of Li Jiazhuang,
From now on, he is not under the control of the imperial court, which is more dangerous than establishing a domain. ”
"The rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of the Western Han Dynasty and the rebellion of the Eight Kings of the Western Jin Dynasty all tell us with bloody facts,
The vassal kings are all wolf ambitions, and sooner or later they will rebel against the court and cause trouble! ”
"I have just started the Tang Dynasty, the foundation is not stable, and I must not plant my own bane, please think twice!"
Wei Zheng is a well-known outspoken courtier in the court.
And the eldest grandson Wuji is his number one confidant, and what these two say is undoubtedly very weighty.
Now, both of them are fiercely opposed to Li Shimin's agreement to Li Hao's conditions,
After Li Shimin listened to the speeches of the two, his thick eyebrows frowned, and the whole person fell into silence.
Among the ministers, most of the ministers were impassioned and indignant, but Fang Xuanling was surprisingly calm.
As the prime minister of the imperial court, Fang Xuanling was not in a hurry to express his opinions.
After pondering for a while, Fang Xuanling arched his hand towards Li Shimin and suggested:
"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that extraordinary methods can be implemented at very moments."
Li Shimin raised his eyebrows: "Oh? I don't know what Xuan Ling's high opinion is? ”
Fang Xuanling coughed lightly and explained unhurriedly:
"Then didn't Li Zhong welcome us to go to Lijiazhuang for verification before leaving?"
"We can take this opportunity to go to Lijiazhuang for verification first.
Let's see if Li Jiazhuang is really as powerful as Li Zhong described. ”
"If the situation is true, we can agree to their request and solve the crisis in Datang!"
"From now on, no matter whether he Li Hao has different intentions or not, the imperial court can find an opportunity to get rid of him at will, so as to prevent future troubles!"
Fang Xuanling's ruthless suggestion made the ministers in the court widen their eyes instantly!
After a little thought, the ministers all nodded secretly, and they all felt that this method was feasible.
Although it is not very glorious, it is also Li Hao's dissenting heart first, and the people of the world also have an explanation.
Although Li Shimin didn't say anything, his eyes lit up instantly.
He didn't answer Fang Xuanling's words, but just said to the ministers:
"I'll take a few Aiqing to Lijiazhuang to explore,
If Li Hao really has the ability to solve the crisis in the Tang Dynasty, I will agree to his conditions,
And to tell the world, anyone who has made important contributions to Datang can receive this courtesy! ”
The eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling and other important ministers immediately understood what Li Shimin meant.
A good reputation is earned by Li Shimin.
The pot that may incur infamy is borne by the minister.
However, as courtiers, they were supposed to solve problems for the emperor, so they didn't think much about it, and immediately gave up their hands and praised: "Your Majesty Shengming!"
