Chapter 666: Surprise
Li Shimin sat there and began to complain, he didn't understand why his son was so restless.
The reform of the army had to be reported to the Ministry of War first, and his son carried out the reform without authorization, not to mention strengthening training, and also forcibly improved the three-meal system, which made the Ministry of Civil Affairs very dissatisfied.
Now that he is paying for his own money and rewarding soldiers, doesn't he understand what this represents?
Li Shimin suddenly felt that the comfortable atmosphere just now was gone, and now there were still some brain pains.
Wang De smiled when he saw this:
"Your Majesty, from the old slave's point of view, His Royal Highness King Ji's move should be that he is too boring in the northwest, so it will be like this.
King Ji is young and does not participate in politics, and most of the rules of the court are unknown to him.
And the people he brought with him were happy to see their master, so they didn't remind him.
If Your Majesty doesn't write a letter to admonish him, let King Ji know. ”
"You dog slave, can I still not know what happened to that rebel? I'm just angry that he doesn't know how to learn, and he doesn't know the rules he should know.
Is there anything else I can tell him? Wang De, are you very optimistic about that rebel. ”
Li Shimin scolded Wang De and asked.
"Look at what Your Majesty said, the old slave will follow Your Majesty in the future, and the old slave will go wherever Your Majesty goes.
However, the old slave does like King Ji very much, and King Ji is actually a good boy. ”
Wang De said with a hippie smile, except for Wang De, no one dared to talk to Li Shimin like this,
The meaning is also very clear, he will accompany Li Shimin to the funeral in the future.
And with his identity, it is not an exaggeration to say that Li Shen is a child.
He is a house slave, and it is normal to call Li Shen Shilang, just as he can call the prince Dalang.
"Alright, I know you're loyal, but I'm going to let you help Gao Ming for a few more years."
Li Shimin was also very moved when he heard that the old slave next to him was ready to go with him, but there were many secrets about the emperor, and he still needed Wang De to teach the prince.
The two sighed for a while, and Li Shimin finally said:
"Let Shangshu give an order, Qinghai Daodu Protector Wang Qing, deputy capital protector, disobeyed military orders, seriously injured the horse captain, and died innocently.
There is also the military department Shangshu Hou Junji for the crime of dereliction of duty, and he will be punished for one year to set an example. ”
Li Shimin finally gave Wang Qing's case a given, and also expressed his dissatisfaction with Hou Junji, the secretary of the Ministry of War.
Temporarily transferred to Wang Qing, but there is no baby, is this negligent or intentional.
In recent years, Hou Jun has kept to himself, behaved properly, and can also be said to be conscientious and did not make any mistakes.
Even Li Shimin praised him a few times and gave him a lot of rewards, but this incident made Li Shimin very opinionated on Hou Junji.
The explanation given by Hou Junji was the negligence of the squire of the military department, and the fold was not reported, and he was given a demotion.
"Yes, the old slave will do it." Wang De agreed and prepared to go down.
"Wait, write a letter to that rebel in my name, and let him restrain himself a little and build a good fortress.
Don't mess around there, tell him the stakes clearly, and tell that rebel that if something happens, see if I don't kill him. ”
Li Shimin finally asked Wang De to write a letter to his family, and he felt that he had to give Li Shen a little admonition, otherwise this son would be able to play with flowers.
Something may not happen then.
After Li Shen finished training his troops, he thought that he could do it, and it was possible to attack Tubo or the Western Turks.
After Li Shimin finished speaking, he waved his hand at Wang De and sighed. "Alas~~~!"
You say that whoever has such a noisy son, who is not troubled.
In May of the twentieth year of Zhenguan, Jiayin, since the Tang Dynasty conquered the huge territory of Goguryeo, Goguryeo made a move for the first time.
The Treasure King and Mo Lizhiyuan Gai Suwen united together and sent messengers to apologize, hoping to get the forgiveness of His Majesty Li Shimin, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
and offered two beauties, most of the courtiers agreed to sue for peace, and suggested that Li Shimin stay.
But in the end, Li Shimin did not leave these two beauties behind and asked the envoy to bring them back to Goguryeo.
Everyone felt that Li Shimin was not ready to negotiate peace with Goguryeo, and the reason may be that Goguryeo did not obey Li Shimin's will to attack Silla at the beginning.
But after Li Shen heard the news, he felt that his father definitely wanted to stay, but because the harem eldest queen was there, he was afraid of his wife. Definitely.
"Lord Wang, a secret letter has come from Fuzhou Weizheng."
When Li Shen was riding a horse and inspecting the training of the soldiers, Wang Xuance ran over.
"Fuzhou?" Li Shen took the secret letter and checked the sealing paint, it was indeed from Fuzhou, and the sealing paint was intact.
Li Shen opened the envelope, and he was really puzzled in his heart, what could Fuzhou let him deal with.
Isn't Wang Hongfu able to do it?
When Li Shen opened the letter, he glanced twice, and his eyes suddenly lit up. Put away the letter and rode to the big tent of the Chinese army.
Don't forget to shout.
"Let's go, let's go back." 、
Wang Xuance and Xue Rengui glanced at each other, and hurriedly followed, their prince was in such a hurry that something big must have happened.
Soon Li Shen took the two back to his camp, and Li Shen took out the letter and read it carefully.
After a while, he grinned.
"Hahahaha, we're going to get rich now."
Seeing Li Shen laughing, Wang Xuance and the two were a little puzzled, Li Shen handed the secret letter in his hand to the two of them to circulate.
"Spices?"
"An island full of spices?"
The two were also shocked, the price of Datang spices was very expensive, and they were all brought over by merchants from the Western Regions.
If a spice island is really discovered, then the Ji Wangfu will really make a fortune.
"Lord Wang, if this is true, then we must quickly occupy this place, our pirate group has a great advantage at sea, and some other countries are not our opponents at all."
Wang Xuance took the lead and said, the rules of King Ji's Mansion are mine.
The maritime trade of the sea is still relatively developed, and the Maritime Silk Road has been presented.
At this time, Datang can be said to be the world's economic, trade, and technological center, and it is not an empty talk that all countries will come to the dynasty in the prosperous era of Datang.
"It's Lord Aya, our sea power is very strong now." Xue Rengui also agreed.
"The scale of the pirate group is still a little smaller, and I heard that Fuzhou has two large clippers launched this year.
These two ships have been improved by the old craftsmen in the dockyard, and they are said to be very powerful.
The king plans to build a Straw Hat pirate regiment to make up for the lack of fleet.
As for that island, didn't the pirate group capture a lot of slaves and let them work there?
Build some defensive sea fortifications, leaving some defenses and two ships to protect them.
You can't let someone else take it away. ”
Li Shen thought about it, he didn't have many people in his hands, and he didn't want to recruit troops and attract criticism.
"By the way, let Wang Hongfu send a few henchmen who know spices over, and a few of those bandits have seen spices.
Send someone over to see what kinds they have, and then see if they can be transplanted back and planted, and send some to my fifth brother, then see if they can be planted. ”
Li Shen thought about the issue of artificial cultivation again.
