Datang Nongwang

Chapter 750 Li Yuan is here, the ship is here

Li Shimin from Chang'an, after handling the two rebellion cases, did not kill anyone related to him.

It was only aimed at his son Li You and demoted him as a commoner.

As for Li Yuanchang, Li Yuan's son, Li Shimin's younger brother, and his prince's son, the final judgment has not yet been decided.

to this end.

Li Shimin ordered to send his servants to Xisha Island, intending to invite Li Yuan back to Chang'an, and Li Yuan made the decision.

One is a kind of respect for Li Yuan.

Second, it can be regarded as what his son wants to prove to his father.

Three, of course, because Li Chengqian and Li You are Li Yuan's grandsons, and Li Yuanchang is his son.

but.

After Li Yuan heard what the servant said and read Li Shimin's letter, he left without saying a word.

It was enough to see that Li Yuan didn't seem to want to care about this matter.

As for whether it is true or not, only Li Yuan probably knows.

And what Wan'er said was just remembering what Li Yuan had said, and she didn't want to make Li Yuan and his son feel so embarrassed again.

at this time.

Li Yuan who returned to his residence was silent.

Sitting on the chair without saying a word, his eyes were blank.

After Wan'er approached, she didn't dare to disturb her.

Wan'er knew that Li Yuan's mood must be very complicated and even sad after learning about the incident in Chang'an.

As for the golden servant, he didn't say much.

As Li Yuan's personal servant, he only obeys orders.

His duty is to protect Li Yuan.

Now, Li Yuan was silent, no one dared to say more, let alone make any noise.

For two days.

Li Yuan didn't say a word.

Even meals are eaten very little.

Li Yuan's situation made Wan'er very anxious, so she had to ask Jin's servant for help, "Old Jin, can you persuade uncle. If uncle continues like this, he will definitely get sick because of being in a bad mood. Old Jin, follow uncle After so many years, you must have a way."

"Ah!!! The master doesn't want to talk, no one can do anything about it, and I have nothing to do. In my opinion, you might as well take him out to sea to relax." There is no good way for Jin's servant.

If there was a good way, Li Yuan wouldn't be so depressed that he almost died.

When Wan'er heard about Jin's servant's method, she thought it was a good one, "Then go and get someone to prepare the boat, and I'll invite uncle to board the boat later."

The golden servant nodded and asked his subordinates to prepare the boat.

Shortly after.

I don't know how Wan'er persuaded Li Yuan, but she really persuaded Li Yuan to board the boat, and sailed into the sea.

This made the waiter who had been waiting on the other side of Xisha Island feel helpless again after receiving the news that Li Yuan had gone to the sea by boat.

"Oh, it seems that the Supreme Emperor really doesn't want to meddle in Chang'an's affairs. I'm afraid I will be scolded for this errand." The servant shook his head helplessly.

Li Yuan has already gone to sea, and he also knows that Li Shimin's request to come to Xisha Island to invite Li Yuan back to Chang'an may not be completed.

but.

The servant didn't rush back to Chang'an when he arrived, but continued to wait.

Waiting for Li Yuan to speak, waiting for his errand to be completed.

What Wan'er said could not represent Li Yuan, so he continued to stay and wait.

Only when Li Yuan spoke, could he complete his errand.

Why don't you go to Xisha Island?
That is not allowed.

It's okay to say that Li Chongyuan is here.

If Li Chongyuan was a familiar servant, Li Chongyuan would definitely let him live on Xisha Island, and even treat him well.

But at the moment, Li Chongyuan is not on Xisha Island, and Li Yuan is on Xisha Island.

People like them, even if they are ordered to live on the island, it is impossible for them to live on the island.

Gu, can only settle down on the other side of Xisha Island, waiting for Li Yuan to come back.

at this time.

Li Chongyuan and the others, who are tens of thousands of miles away, are still looking for some kind of dog head gold.

More than a month down.

The gold they found was enough to make them rich for three generations.

As for Xingba and the others, they even found an unknown amount of gold.

Although the dog's head gold has not been found, it is the size of a pigeon egg, and it has already contained a lot.

even.

Others found dozens of gold mounds the size of eggs.

A golden mound the size of an egg is enough for a family of five to live a prosperous life, but everyone still hasn't stopped, and they are still looking for it.

After finding the open-air ones, start digging.

Whatever guy is easy to use, just use whatever guy.

One day, Li Chongyuan looked at the people who were digging for gold, heaved a long sigh and said, "Depending on the situation, they don't plan to go back to Datang if they don't dig out dozens of catties of gold."

"Who among them would want to go back to Datang? This is a treasure land, and you can get a few grains of gold sand by digging casually. This is money, and the gold sand that can make their family live a good life for a year. If it is my family's That one, I am afraid that he would like to stay here and dig for gold for the rest of his life." Zhu Ni who was standing beside Li Chongyuan said in response.

The one from Zhuni's house is naturally his wife.

Li Chongyuan listened to Le Dao and the others.

Zhu Ni's wife loves money, and she loves money extremely.

Once, when Zhu Ni went to the battlefield and got some valuables from the battlefield, Zhu Ni's wife either took them for money or exchanged them for food.

Food is easy to talk about, but once the money is exchanged, Zhu Ni's wife hugs him every day.

Sleeping with my arms around, and carrying it during work during the day, as if afraid of being stolen.

It wasn't until Zhu Ni followed Li Chongyuan, whether she got wages or rewards, that Zhu Ni's wife no longer hugged money every day like before.

Instead, he stays in his own home every day, as if he is afraid of being stolen.

Li Chongyuan once heard Le Dao say it.

One day, when Le Dao visited Zhu Ni's house, he happened to meet Zhu Ni's wife counting copper coins.

Therefore, Zhu Ni said that if the person in his family was here, he would be willing to dig gold for a lifetime here.

Li Chongyuan didn't think so.

Zhu Ni's wife loves money so much, perhaps because she was afraid of poverty and hunger before.

They were originally farmers.

He was drafted into the battlefield, and because of some military exploits, he followed Li Zhao's father.

If it is not lucky, perhaps they have already died on the battlefield, or returned to their hometown, still living a life of poverty.

Even if they have military exploits and some taxes are exempted because of their military exploits, it is difficult to get rich even if they deal with the fields every day.

There are thousands of soldiers in the world, there are really not many who can have their luck.

And if they are lucky enough to meet such a good boss as Li Chongyuan, it is even rarer.

Zhu Ni's words seemed to be mocking his own family, but Li Chongyuan didn't care at all, and said aloud: "Since they want to dig gold here, let's go to the north for dozens or even hundreds of miles to have a look. Anyway, there is no news about the people in Qingfengzhai so far, even if we stop them, I'm afraid we won't be able to go back."

"Xiao Langjun, what should we do with our gold?" Liao Xian asked.

Li Chongyuan looked at the pile of gold behind him, then looked at Shiqi, "Seventeen, ask people to take these back to the camp first, and then share them together."

Nod to Seventeen in response.

During this period of time, Li Chongyuan and the others found quite a lot of gold.

Let alone hundreds of catties.

In just one month, Li Chongyuan and the others found over a hundred catties of gold.

After all, Li Chongyuan and the others found a river with a hidden golden mound, so they were the first to arrive.

dig?
Forget it.

Li Chongyuan didn't want to dig for gold, let alone do it.

Even if it is Xingba, they are not willing to dig for any gold.

Head north.

Xiang Shiqi arranged for ten people to bring the gold back to the camp, and he also led all the soldiers of the Xiang family, and followed Li Chongyuan and the others to continue exploring north.

This line.

Li Chongyuan didn't know what to look for.

Maybe it was because he wanted to continue searching for open-pit gold mines, or maybe he wanted to find out what else was worth Li Chongyuan's hands in the vicinity.

Anyway, only tens of hundreds of miles away.

The time is very loose, so Tantan is fine.

I have traveled tens of thousands of miles and hundreds of thousands of miles, which is much more convenient than going in the jungle.

Li Chongyuan continued to search here.

Chang'an, which is tens of thousands of miles away, continues to stage the Eastern Expedition.

After half a month, all the preparations for the Eastern Expedition were being discussed in the court hall every day.

And the biggest ones are food, soldiers, and ships.

The Ministry of Households is responsible for food and grass, and the Ministry of War is responsible for soldiers.

Look at this ship.

It was originally a matter of the Ministry of Industry, but now, it is above the court.

In every court meeting, Fang Xuanling had to bring up the matter of recruiting ships.

Although he did not seldom speak out about Li Chongyuan's ships, he has been mentioning the recruitment of ships.

This also made Li Chongji's brothers hate Fang Xuanling even more during this period of time. Even Li Chongji, the eldest brother, when Fang Xuanling mentioned the matter of recruiting Li Chongyuan's ships several times, Li Chongji Chong Ji jumped out to object.

And Li Shimin has not spoken.

He was waiting for the news, the news of Li Chongyuan's return to Datang.

at last.

During the court meeting on a certain day, after Fang Xuanling proposed to recruit ships again, Li Shimin asked Wang Lilai, "Wang Li, do you have any news about Li Chongyuan?"

"Returning to the Holy Lord, the people you sent have arrived in Xibu, Dengzhou, and Xisha Island. They have not seen Li Junwang, nor have they heard of Li Junwang's return." Wang Li replied truthfully.

Some time ago, Li Shimin asked Wang Li to send someone to check on Li Chongyuan's news.

Wang Li finally sent several people to go to different places to inquire about Li Chongyuan's specific news.

But for more than half a month, the news I got is still empty.

No news.

This made Fang Xuanling find an excuse, and stood up again, "My lord, since King Li Jun has not returned, and the Eastern Expedition cannot be delayed. King Li's shipyard and ships, it is better to recruit first, and wait After King Li returns, he will appeal to him for his knowledge."

There is no news or movement of Li Chongyuan's return.

This made Li Chongji and others do not know how to deal with the current situation.

Objection, he has no reason to object.

After all, the court had already decided to conscript most of the ships in the Tang Dynasty, and it couldn't be an exception just because Li Chongyuan was the county king and the clan.

The three Li Chongji brothers were a little flustered at the moment, and they were very anxious.

I can't find a way to deal with it, and I don't even know what to say if I want to stand up.

Li Shimin on the throne, after listening to Wang Li's words, saw Fang Xuanling once again proposed to recruit Li Chongyuan's shipyard ships first.

Li Shimin felt that this method was feasible, so he nodded lightly and said: "Then follow what Fang Aiqing said first, recruit first and then let him know. Orders can be issued to various places, and all ships that are suitable for combat will be requisitioned by the imperial court. Bohai, prepare for war in Bohai."

All court officials echoed one after another.

Li Shimin made a speech, which let Li Chongji and his brothers know that this matter is irreversible.

After Fang Xuanling got Li Shimin's words, he was very proud, and looked back at Li Chongji and his brothers, as if they were laughing.

And right now.

A servant stepped into the hall lightly.

Wang Li saw that a servant entered the palace during the court meeting, and after asking Li Shimin for instructions, he greeted the servant.

After a while.

After the servant left, Wang Li returned to Li Shimin's side and said softly, "My lord, there is news from Xisha Island."

"Could it be that Li Chongyuan is back?" Li Shimin guessed that Li Chongyuan was back when he heard the words, his face was still happy.

He appointed Li Chongyuan as an envoy to the countries in the northeast of the Tang Dynasty.

This is something that has never happened since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, even in the previous dynasty or in the past, it has never happened.

Li Shimin's appointment of Li Chongyuan as an envoy to these countries can be said to be a precedent, and it is unprecedented.

Once Li Chongyuan returns, this mission to various countries will be recorded in the annals of history, and it will become a feat of Li Shimin that the world considers to be the first of its kind.

However, Wang Li shook his head and replied: "Li Junwang has not returned, but the Supreme Emperor?"

"What's wrong with the Supreme Emperor!" Li Shimin became nervous when he heard that it was about his father.

Seeing that Li Shimin was nervous, Wang Li hurriedly said: "Twenty days ago, the servants and servants sent people to Xisha Island to please return to the Supreme Emperor. However, the Supreme Emperor did not want to return to Chang'an. Moreover, a message was sent back that the boat on Xisha Island was the Xisha Island. Island ships, if the Holy Majesty wants to requisition the ships of Xisha Island, then come and get them in person.”

Wang Li's voice was not loud, but all court officials could hear it clearly.

When Wang Li's words came out, Li Shimin's nervousness was so relaxed.

But the court officials were helpless.

Li Yuan's ability to say these words is enough to show that Li Yuan is going to save Xisha Island.

As a son, Li Shimin wanted to requisition the shipyard ships of his subjects, so it was impossible for him to disregard his father's face.

Although Li Shimin's tension was relaxed, he felt that his face was instantly slapped.

Just now he said to requisition Li Chongyuan's shipyard ships first, but he didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, his father sent a message from Xisha Island, saying that if he wanted to requisition the shipyard ships of Xisha Island, he would go and get them himself.

Li Shimin was helpless.

At this moment, Fang Xuanling felt helpless, feeling that she had also been slapped in the face.

On the other hand, Li Chongji and his brothers felt relieved for a while after hearing Wang Li's words, and they looked at each other and even smiled at each other.

The three of them had the same sentence in their hearts, "It's okay, it's okay, I sent people to Xisha Island in advance, the emperor is too powerful." '
