Chapter 153: The Rebellion of the Han King!
"His Royal Highness the King of Han, what do you think we should do?" Hou Junji was a little entangled.
After all, according to the words of Li Yuanji, the king of Han, if His Majesty is still very healthy now.
Then when the fleet is built, it will go to sea.
If the fleet really found longevity medicine from Penglai Immortal Island, then their plans would inevitably fail.
Li Yuanji was silent for a while, and then said, "What do you think, Duke Luguo." β
"His Royal Highness the King of Han, I think the top priority is to ensure that His Majesty returns to heaven as soon as possible."
"In this way, you will have a chance to compete with Prince Jiancheng for the throne."
"When the time comes, we will have the support of our people behind the scenes, and the five surnames and seven hopes will be behind the scenes."
"You will be able to inherit the throne!"
Hou Junji said this, and his heart swelled with excitement.
If the King of Han succeeds in inheriting the unification and becoming the lord of the Tang Dynasty, then how can a few of them be rated as a dragon!
When the time comes, it's okay to get out of the cabinet and enter the picture!
Right now......
"Humph! What a succession! β
A voice came.
Hou Junji suddenly broke out in a cold sweat behind his back, and the whole person was stunned.
This voice is very familiar to him, and it is Li Shimin, the king of Qin who followed him in the southern and northern wars.
Today's lord of the Tang Dynasty.
It's also the object of their secret schemes!
But why? Li Shimin will appear in his own house!
He stiffened his neck and slowly turned his head away.
"Duke Luguo, you really have good intentions for me!"
Li Shimin said with a smile.
"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, why are you here? β
Hou Junji's face was full of shock.
"I have nothing to do, and Yuanji invited me here to gather again, so I came over."
Li Shimin said with a smile.
"King Han?"
Hou Junji looked back in disbelief.
Obviously, his own plans, the king of Han is also the beneficiary!
But why did he betray himself!
Looking at Hou Junji's desperate eyes, Han King Li Yuanji scratched his head and said:
"I'm sorry, Duke Lu."
"The braised pork is delicious, and the spicy chicken tastes very good!"
Hou Junji: "? β
What braised pork? What spicy chicken?
Everything is over!
Hou Junji sighed: "Can the King of Han tell the old man the real reason, so that I can die blindly." β
Hearing this, Li Yuanji sighed and said:
"I'm telling the truth, why don't you believe it!"
In fact, a meal in the small courtyard of Wannian County that day made Li Yuanji think a lot, a lot.
For the sake of this throne, is it really good to betray the imperial brother who has always favored him and has always revered him?
If he really launched a coup d'Γ©tat, would Datang still want to be like this now?
So, after a period of psychological struggle.
In the end, he decided to have a showdown and informed the imperial brother of all the plans he had in the Luguo Mansion.
When Li Shimin heard Li Yuanji's story.
It's also hard to cry and laugh!
I have worked hard for the development of Datang.
But in the eyes of Lu Guogong, all these actions are to prolong his life.
And not only that, but even the national debt has become a means of collecting money in his eyes.
No wonder a while ago, a group of nobles were clamoring to repay the national debt.
That is, the profit rate given by himself is high, so some people are willing to take over and buy back the treasury bonds that were supposed to be returned.
It avoids a disconnection of the capital chain.
After all, all the silver that was collected at the beginning had already been spent on shipbuilding.
"Duke Luguo, since you want to die to understand, I will fulfill you!"
Li Shimin said lightly.
"From the conquest of Goguryeo to the current edict of Danshi refining gunpowder."
"All of this, I am making unremitting efforts for the development of Datang."
"As for what you said at that time, the days were numbered, it was completely empty!"
(This chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 153: The Rebellion of the Han King!
It's you guessing in the wrong direction! Even if you wait until I finish paying off the debt, I won't die! β
But where does Hou Junji believe.
"If you don't have a short time, why do you frequently target the family? Don't you just want to clear the way for the crown prince? β
Hearing this, Li Shimin smiled and said: "It seems that you also know that you are an obstacle to the development of Datang!" β
"Then why can't I punish you for the development of Datang?"
Hearing this, Hou Junji stagnated.
"What do you say about going to sea?"
"The sea is vast, how can you conclude that you can sail smoothly to the western country and then return smoothly?"
"You must know that there will be countless natural disasters along the way! Not to mention those thieves on the sea, it is a storm and a huge wave, which is enough to destroy the ship and kill people! β
"So if you hadn't gone to Penglai to find medicine, I really can't think of any other reason for you to take this risk."
Hearing this, Li Shimin shook his head.
He just said, "What I say is the truth." As for how to avoid risks, I can't tell you nothing. β
Regarding pirates and other thieves, do you think that the warships built by Li Shimin in secret, and the team of soldiers selected and trained, are vegetarians?
And the wind and waves, in fact, are not to be worried.
First of all, the shipping channel provided by Qin Fan had already avoided most of the risks.
What's more, the construction of merchant ships has long taken these risks into account.
Unless there is a huge wave, there is no risk of capsizing on a merchant ship.
However, when sailing on the sea, the risks are inevitably difficult to avoid completely.
So even if he sometimes loses a merchant ship or several ships of cargo, Li Shimin is already prepared.
Hou Junji was completely unbelievable.
If it could be avoided, why hide it?
It's just that when he came into contact with Li Shimin's eyes, he knew: What His Majesty said was true!
After more than ten years of friendship between monarchs and ministers, he can conclude that at least what His Majesty said before came from the heart.
However, he was still unwilling.
"In that case, isn't it to prolong your life when you summoned Fang Shi to refine the pill?"
"And you have repeatedly gone to Wannian County, it must be to seek medical advice from Sun Simiao!"
Hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
As early as when he discussed the past and present life of gunpowder with Qin Fan, Li Shimin knew about it.
The so-called alchemy and longevity are all bluffing!
Throughout the ages, how many emperors have died violently on the so-called longevity elixir.
Even if they don't die violently, many of them die because of the chronic toxins of the pill.
Therefore, the so-called alchemy and longevity are undoubtedly foolish words in the eyes of the current Li Shimin.
"I sent Danshi to refine gunpowder."
"That gunpowder can be used to open mountains and break rocks."
"I was going to use it for ore!"
"Lu Guogong might as well think about it: If my Datang iron mining has increased greatly, and the soldiers have put on strong armor and sharp weapons, how much will the chances of winning increase when fighting on the battlefield?"
Li Shimin did not intend to explain the matter of firearms to Hou Junji at all.
After all, the other party will definitely not live to that day!
"As for going to Wannian County for treatment?"
"That's even more nonsense!"
