Chapter 348: Extraordinary Means

The situation was critical, and Li Hao didn't dare to be careless, arranged some affairs of Lijiazhuang, and immediately rushed to Chang'an with Wan'er.

As Li Mingda expected, after Li Shimin read the account book, he also guessed what Li Ziyin meant by sacrificing herself to quell the war. But because of the power of the Li clan in Longxi, Li Shimin couldn't come to the rescue casually.

Daily life is as usual, and Chang'an is still singing and dancing.

On this day, Li Hao appeared in the court generously and sat in his exclusive position.

The courtiers marched as usual and reported to Li Shimin the recent situation in all parts of the country in these days.

Under the diligent management of Li Shimin, who was strongly supported by Li Jiazhuang, the Tang Dynasty was united, the four seas were leveled, the national strength was increasingly prosperous, and there was no major event everywhere. The only ones that can be put on the subject are the coastal periphery, and the small fights that are plagued by the widows.

Li Shimin was familiar with the situation and ordered to increase the deployment of troops in coastal prefectures and counties to curb the Japanese trouble. The matter was successfully resolved.

Seeing that the ministers had no more progress, Li Shimin smiled slightly: "King Zhen'an, you have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and suddenly go to the court today, what is the matter?" ”

Li Hao was a little drowsy listening to the progress of the ministers reporting good news but not bad news, but he woke up when Li Shimin shouted like this.

"Today, this king really has something to discuss, I want to discuss it with Your Majesty!"

"What's the matter? But it doesn't hurt to say it! ”

Li Hao stood up and respectfully bowed his hand: "I want Your Majesty to request the allocation of land and give the land between the Li Kingdom and the party to Xiao Wang!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the ministers were shocked.

This kind of thing in the country of the country has already made the ministers dissatisfied, but because of Li Shimin's approval, everyone hid their objections in their hearts and didn't dare to say it, and now Li Hao is so bold that he took the initiative to ask Li Shimin for land, is this still it?

Chen Shutai immediately stood up and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty! The land of the Tang Dynasty is a godsend, every inch of land is sacrosanct, Li Hao dared to openly ask His Majesty to cut the land, which is simply bold. The Li Kingdom has already committed a blatant rebellion, please Your Majesty will punish it severely! ”

"Please Your Majesty severely punish King Zhen'an, the anger of the people has been calmed!"

Above the court, nearly half of the ministers knelt down and began to criticize Li Hao.

Li Shimin is also sweating at the moment, he is incomprehensible, how could Li Hao suddenly say such a big rebellious remark?

Even if he wanted to connect the Li Kingdom with the party, he could discuss it with him secretly. Li Shimin couldn't fight against the will of the people, and named Li Hao a Taishou, in charge of the land between the party and the Li Kingdom, in this way, isn't it equivalent to connecting the two places in one place?

But he openly said such things above the court, didn't it mean that he gave Chen Shutai and them an excuse to attack?

Li Shimin was anxious in his heart, but he pretended to be serious on his face: "King Zhen'an, the matter of cutting the land and establishing a vassal is very important, you can think about it clearly!" ”

Li Hao's face was not moved in the slightest: "Your Majesty, the Li Kingdom raised 80,000 troops, leveled the party for the Tang Dynasty, and lifted the crisis of the encirclement of the four countries, it is reasonable, shouldn't Your Majesty reward me?" ”

"Just defeating the party, you are delusional about such a large piece of land, you are not asking for a reward, you are robbing. Don't you think that I can't live without you in Datang? Chen Shutai yelled at Li Hao.

Li Hao sneered and looked back at Chen Shutai: "Lord Chen is really majestic!" The dignified party and the country have become a casual thing in your mouth! If it's really that simple, why don't you bring troops to level the party in the Tang Dynasty when the party alliance Tubo and Khitan surrounded the Tang Dynasty! ”

"This king spent manpower and material resources to disintegrate their alliance, and the Tang Dynasty is peaceful, so you will forget the crisis you faced that day?"

"This ...... These are two different things! Chen Shutai had a dark face and said strongly.

Li Hao snorted coldly and didn't pay attention to him anymore.

"Your Majesty, the division of land is very important, I know that Datang is very difficult, but I really need this land now. After all, the party is now a vassal country of my Li Kingdom, and it is also a barrier between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo, only by making it strong and going north in the future, the Tang Dynasty and my Li Kingdom will have no worries! ”

"Wave north? What a joke! Don't think that you are lucky enough to win a few battles and feel that you are amazing, you have not seen how strong the fighting power of the Turks is in the steppe! Besides, Datang has just quelled the war, and the people still need to recuperate, what are your intentions in deliberately provoking a war! ”

Chen Shutai refused to let go of any opportunity to attack Li Hao, and yelled again.

Li Hao's face turned pale all the way, and he pulled out the overlord halberd.

In a burst of sound of machine springs flicking, the overlord halberd unfolded, and the god pointed majestically at Chen Shutai.

"This king is now discussing the military situation with His Majesty, and Your Majesty has not yet spoken, how can it be your turn to talk nonsense from this old fellow! Don't you think that you can negotiate with this king on behalf of Your Majesty, or this Tang Dynasty has your surname Chen! ”

The power of the overlord, the king's qi burst out from Li Hao's body in an instant, pressing on Chen Shutai's body like a mountain.

Chen Shutai's face turned pale, and he was actually intimidated by Li Hao, and subconsciously took three steps back. Cold sweat was dripping on his forehead, and he didn't dare to speak for a while.

"You dare to carry a sword to the court, quickly put down your weapon!"

"Come and escort him, don't let him hurt the emperor!"

Several generals who opposed Li Hao were under tremendous pressure and scolded Li Hao.

Dozens of guards broke in from outside the door, and the court was immediately in chaos.

"Presumptuous! Whoever let you in, get out of here! ”

Seeing that the situation was about to be uncontrollable, Li Shimin shouted violently and stood up, like a dragon with angry eyes, and the shocked ministers did not dare to say a word, and knelt on the ground with a puff.

"Your Majesty is angry!"

Li Shimin's face was dark, and he glared at Li Hao: "King Zhen'an, I have always treated you politely, I hope you can know its proportions!" ”

Li Hao put away the overlord halberd with an expressionless face and put it back in the wooden box hidden behind his clothes.

"Your Majesty forgives the sin, I have trespassed!"

Li Shimin turned his head to look at Chen Shutai again: "Lord Chen, I know that you are loyal to the Tang Dynasty, but now that the prince is discussing the future war with me, when will it be your turn to help me recover!" ”

"Weichen was excited for a while, the sin deserves death, please forgive your majesty!" Chen Shutai hurriedly knelt down.

Li Shimin took a deep breath, and finally suppressed his anger.

"The matter of land cutting is very important, I need to think about it, and I hope that King Zhen'an can give me a little time!"

Li Hao was not scheming, and arched his hand and said: "This is natural, please consider your majesty's words carefully." As long as the king can completely control the party, he will be able to control Tibet in the west and Tuguhun in the north in the future. Yes, Datang has a hundred benefits and no harm! ”

"I really know, I will think about what you say, retreat!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Li Shimin seemed to be really angry, he didn't look at Li Hao, and waved away.

Outside the main hall, Fang Xuanling and other people who had a good relationship with Li Hao surrounded them.

"Xiao Li, Xiao Li, are you crazy? How can you say such a rebellious thing in the court! ”

Li Hao laughed: "No way, it happened suddenly, I can only have an extraordinary way to break the situation." You take me to see Your Majesty now, I choked him with anger just now, I guess he doesn't want to see me at this time! ”
