Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 873 An Unexpected Guest

Speaking of this, Li Shimin took out two pages of Liu Mu's letter that he hadn't shown just now.

After the four ministers circulated it, Fang Xuanling said: "We can't fight anymore this year, and if we want to fight, we have to fight next year. There will be three big wars against the outside world in a year. It's hard to say in the court, and the people will complain. .”

"I didn't say that we will fight this year. This year is to defend against the Six Edicts, and we will start the war next year after the New Year."

No one could refute Li Shimin's words.

In Liu Mu's letter, Li Shimin made a very evil trick, that is, to exchange military achievements for Fengtian.If the soldiers do not have enough fields in their hometown, then give them shares in rice, sugar cane, spices or other fields in the Indochina Peninsula.

Seeing that the four ministers no longer objected, Li Shimin said: "Then the day after tomorrow, the cabinet will discuss the matter and declare to the outside world that it will deploy troops to defend against the Liuzhao rebellion. After that, Lingnan Road and Xigang Bosi will fight back in self-defense."

"Follow the Holy Order."

Li Shimin smiled with satisfaction, and pulled out the last two pages of Willow's letter.

"Liu Concubine made a request, asking me to prepare all the people he needs. Take a look."

Liu Mu's Taishanghuang Tianxia survey plan required thousands of various technical personnel. He couldn't find these people in Jiangnan, so he could only ask Li Shimin for help. In Chang'an, he could find all these talents.

"This..." Fang Xuanling and the other four didn't know how to comment.

According to Liu Mu, as long as there is no one there, the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan drew a map and erected a monument, that is the territory of the Tang Dynasty. It doesn't matter whether you send people or not, just occupy this land first, even if it will be empty within a hundred years No one, as long as there is a stele, can exercise the sovereignty of the Tang Dynasty at any time.

Seeing that none of the four courtiers spoke, Li Shimin said: "Since none of the four love ministers objected, then we should select personnel as soon as possible and send them to Jiangnan for concentrated training for a while."

"Yes!" The four answered in unison.

Soon, Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty presided over the meeting in person. Whether it was the Fusang soldiers who went to battle, the plans for the Fusang soldiers' military exploits and promotions were soon written.

Let's talk about Juqishan City.

Liu Mu meets an unexpected old acquaintance.

The patriarch of Silla's Park clan, Brother Park.

It seems that Mr. Park did not regard himself and Liu Mu as enemies. He only brought two entourages, and each entourage came to Juqishan City with some gifts on their backs.

After receiving the news, Liu Mu struggled for half an hour before deciding to go out of the city to meet him.

Living outside Qishan City, Liu Mu brought only two attendants to see Mr. Pu.

"I haven't seen you for a year, Mr. Park is fine."

"I haven't seen you for a year, but Concubine Liu's demeanor is still the same."

After finishing the two unnutritious polite words, Liu Mu said to the people around him, "Have a banquet."

Silla is close to the sea, and the feast of willows is a feast of mountain delicacies.

Four cold and four hot, four meat and four vegetables, a total of eight dishes, and then a soup.

After drinking for three rounds, Eldest Brother Pu asked, "Consort Liu, will Tang help Queen Deman to attack north?"

"What do you think?" Willow asked with a smile.

Mrs. Pu shook his head slightly: "I guess not, there is no need for Tang Jun to participate in these matters on the peninsula. The more chaotic the peninsula is, the more beneficial it is to Datang."

"No, on the contrary, the more peaceful the peninsula is, the better it is for Datang."

"Liu's son-in-law is joking." Mr. Pu did not believe Liu Mu's words at all. In his opinion, Tang Dynasty wanted to destroy Goguryeo, so he should do everything possible to make Goguryeo uneasy.

Willow laughed.

"In these days, whoever has nothing to do will fight and kill. Isn't it good to make money happily? Goguryeo can create almost 1000 million guan of production for Datang every year, and Goguryeo itself can earn no less than 200 million guan of net profit. This son-in-law can't think of any other reason to fight."

Liu Mu's words are not lies, Mr. Park knows the current situation of Goguryeo.

Liu Mu said again: "You come here because you are jealous, and you are jealous of the wealth that Goguryeo is getting right now. The first batch of ordnance given to Goguryeo by the Tang Dynasty will be delivered soon, and the second batch will be shipped to Pingcheng before the end of the year."

"Army, ordnance!" Mr. Park couldn't believe Liu Mu's words.

Liu Mu smiled calmly: "I didn't convince you, you can go and see for yourself. Think about what Goguryeo wants these ordnance for, but I believe Goguryeo will give you some, after all, you are allies."

Brother Park couldn't say a word, and his eyes were a little dazed.

He didn't believe that Goguryeo would distribute some ordnance to himself, which was completely impossible.

It is still possible to say that Goguryeo annexed his Silla.

"Can I, Mrs. Park, set up a market?"

Brother Park didn't dare to continue talking about the ordnance, and directly stated his purpose for coming here.

Liu Mu poured himself a glass of wine: "What good do I have?"

Mrs. Pu said: "You can save a lot of trouble, son-in-law. If I, Pu's unified management, can also guarantee profits."

Liu Mu put down the wine glass, and responded in a cold voice: "It's not necessary. I don't have a lot of goods in Datang, and I don't have enough for my own use right now. It doesn't matter what little profit you have."

"Then, I, Silla, will close all passages around Juqishan City."

Liu Mu was even more impolite, and immediately pushed back: "Feng, it's best that you can seal it tomorrow when you go back today. You can consider building a circle of city walls to keep Juqishan City out of the wall. This is called Feng, and everyone You're not a child anymore, and adults will naturally speak out like nails, you just said you sealed it, if you didn't seal it, I'm afraid you will be laughed at by the world."

Big Brother Park was choked up, and after blushing for a while, he bowed and said, "Just now, I was angry, and I, Park, would like to ask the King of Silla to get rid of the rebels in Qishancheng, and give Queen Deman two The land of the city. Just ask..."

"Seeing off the guests!" Liu Mu didn't obey his words at all, got up and left the banquet hall.

"Liu Consort..." Elder Brother Pu was in a hurry, he stood up and was about to chase after him, but was blocked by someone.

I only listened to Liu Mu's instructions: "Juqishan City is closed, and small-scale markets are still allowed to exist, and large transactions are not allowed."

Brother Park threatened to close the city, but he only threatened.

However, Liu Mu really wants to seal the city, completely preventing Juqishan City from having any contact with Park's Silla.

Elder Brother Pu still wanted to say something more, but Liu Mu's personal guard had already drawn half of the knife: "You are restricted to leave Juqishan City immediately, if you are not the messenger, you will die by my knife."

Brother Park sighed heavily.

He has already felt the impact of Datang's massive goods on Pu's, Park's linen workshop and dozens of workshops can no longer survive.

Datang's linen is half cheaper than that produced by Park's Workshop.

Park's workshop has to pay as much linen as it produces. Mr. Park hopes to get the goods or the spinning machines produced. He thinks he is sincere, so he justified Kinderman's name and offered two cities in exchange.

Unexpectedly, Liu Mu turned his face directly.
