Traveling through the divine eagle: the first sword of Quanzhen

Chapter 595 "Loyal Minister" Li Qingwei of the Great Song Dynasty
At this time, Zhao Xuan slapped the memorial in his hand on the table, and the people around him trembled in fright.

After hearing this sound, all the elegant court music came to an abrupt end.

Everyone knelt down in front of Zhao Yu. Zhao Yu didn't say anything, but clutched the wrinkled memorial that he threw, and then walked out from the side with a cold face.

The personal eunuch hurriedly followed.

And the others didn't dare to speak, didn't dare to ask, and didn't even dare to breathe.

After Zhao Yu returned to the imperial study, he said to the chief eunuch who was close to him with a cold face, "Preach the decree! King Xuanwei enters the palace to meet you."

Seeing Zhao Yu's embarrassing expression, the chief eunuch hurriedly left to announce the decree to Prince Wei's mansion.

Li Qingwei lay leisurely on the soft bed in the palace. He wanted to lie here for a while, maybe this was the last time he would return to this palace.

Maybe when he comes back next time, it will be time for his heavenly army to capture Lin'an.

It's just that I don't know if the palace can be preserved at that time.

Soon the eunuch who passed the decree came to Prince Wei's mansion, and then Li Qingwei adjusted his clothes a little, put on the king's golden crown python robe, and then sat on the royal chariot, followed the eunuch who passed the decree to the palace.

The eunuch who passed the decree quickly brought Li Qingwei over, but at this time Zhao Yu's face remained unchanged, with a gloomy face as before, and then he lowered his head.

When other foreign ministers enter the palace, they cannot look directly at the emperor.Except for the relatives of the clan, Li Qingwei could only hold back his smile when he saw Zhao Yu's ugly face.

After taking a few steps forward and standing still, Li Qingwei saluted and shouted: "I see my father!"

Hearing this voice, Zhao Yu raised his head, and Zhao Yu told the personal eunuch: "You go down first! Remove all the guards in front of the gate, and no one is allowed to approach the imperial study room without my order. Have a secret talk with King Wei." After receiving Zhao Yu's order, the chief eunuch retreated slowly.

After he left, Zhao Yu said with a cold face at this time: "Now you and I are the only ones left. If you have anything to say, you can talk directly." Afterwards, Zhao Yu pointed to the lower seat of the Imperial Study Room and continued, " sit down."

Li Qingwei cupped his hands and thanked: "Thank you, the emperor, for giving me a seat!" After saying that, Li Qingwei sat on the lower seat.

Zhao Yu took Li Qingwei's memorial and asked: "Is what is said in this memorial true?"

Li Qingwei started his "performance" and then said nonsense: "Don't dare to lie to the emperor, every sentence in this memorial is true, about the situation of Tang Dynasty, I have already reported it in the memorial, I believe the emperor already knows it well, I won’t say much anymore. This time I’m coming back to discuss with the emperor the matter of forming an alliance with the Tang Dynasty to fight against the Mongol Tartars.”

Zhao Xuan squinted his eyes at Li Qingwei and asked, "Oh? Resist the Mongolian Tartars?"

Li Qing nodded slightly and said, "Exactly!"

"Don't be in a hurry about the alliance. You can tell me clearly about the origin of the Great Tang Emperor, when did you hook up with them, and what happened to those firearms? The so-called Great Tang Emperor Is Tang's military strength really true?" Zhao Yu said to Li Qingwei in an irrefutable tone.

Seeing Zhao Yu asking such a question, Li Qingwei didn't hesitate to answer. After all, people like Zhao Yu don't cry when they see the coffin. .

"I don't know the specific origin of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. I just know that he, like me, is a descendant of the Li clan. My ancestor is Li Congxin, the Duke of Wenyang County, and his distant ancestor is Li Ke, the son of Emperor Xianzong of Tang Dynasty. And he claims to be After Tang Zhaozong's direct line."

"And I didn't know this 'Son of Heaven' at first, but it was my master who assisted him, so I also came under his command."

Zhao Yu still squinted his eyes and asked, "Oh? Your master? Who is he?"

Li Qingwei said with a wry smile at this time: "I don't know much about this."

Zhao Yu sneered and said, "Your own master doesn't even know who it is, you are really filial as a disciple."

Li Qingwei frowned at this moment, and continued to babble: "I just don't know the real identity of Master, since I knew Master, Master has always covered himself in black clothes, a bamboo hat, and a ghost mask no matter winter or summer. "

"Even though I, as his direct disciple, have never seen Master's true face, everyone outside Master calls him 'Marshal'! And he specially seeks out the descendants of Li Tang to train them. Maybe Master just wants us to be Contribute to the restoration of the Tang Dynasty in the future!"

Hearing Li Qingwei's nonsense, Zhao Yu was skeptical at this time, and Zhao Yu continued to ask: "What does the firearm mentioned in your memorial look like?"

Li Qingwei was secretly happy at this moment, Zhao Yu finally got the point.

Before returning, Kuai Ma had already reported to him, the "Emperor of the Tang Dynasty", that the Nanyang garrison had sunk the Song Army gunboat.But Song Jun didn't make any other reactions, which can only explain one problem, that is, they were afraid.

Li Qingwei replied: "That kind of weapon is very strange. It is a new type of "artillery" from the Tang army. It looks a bit like a large "firecracker". Datang calls it a "rocket launcher". This weapon is very powerful. , I have participated in some battles for the restoration of the Tang Dynasty before, and tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry were defeated in an instant under the attack of this weapon."

"Bo Yan, the general under Mongolian Kublai Khan, was trapped and killed by this weapon in the Wolf Valley between Guanluo. Our gunboat was sunk by this weapon before."

Zhao Yu looked at Li Qingwei and said, "You know about this?"

Li Qing nodded slightly and continued to gossip: "Naturally! I was in Datang, and I worshiped the doctor Yushi, one of the three princes. Naturally, I know these things. Kublai Khan gave up Nanyang under the coercion of the 'Marshal'. The Tang army stationed in the past, but the gun boats of the Great Song Dynasty attacked the Tang army for no reason. This made the emperor who was patrolling there at that time very angry, so the emperor ordered the gun boats to be sunk."

"After the emperor returned to Kaifeng, he was furious, so he summoned the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. The prime minister, the Taiwei, and other relatives and nobles with the surname Li suggested this as an excuse to start a war against our Song Dynasty."

"It was my persuasion that temporarily dispelled their plan to invade the Song Dynasty in the south."

Hearing this, Zhao Yu chuckled lightly, and asked, "Oh? Then what did you say?"

"Naturally, it is a matter of knowing the benefits and harms. Now that the foreign enemies in Mongolia have not been eliminated, it is probably not the right way to attack the 'allies'."

Zhao Yu asked: "Then why do you try to stop it? You are the heir of the Li surname, and you are one of the three princes of the 'anti-thief'. Presumably in the future, in the so-called 'Great Tang', you must be treated like a king. Why? Do you want to protect my Great Song?"

Li Qingwei replied neither humble nor overbearing: "The first is for A Ke, Da Song is A Ke's home, so I naturally want to help her protect this home. The second is the matter of loyalty to the emperor, which is sealed by the emperor." As a king, he gave me the treatment of the next prince, and even entered the clan for me, and gave me a wife and concubine in the house. The emperor treats me like a "biological father", so how can I have two hearts? Therefore, I have always been a "guest" Assist the emperor of the Tang Dynasty with the status of ''."

Zhao Yu clapped his hands and said, "It seems that my 'son' is really loyal."
