Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 760 Ambition

"My son has already thought about it and plans to open a store in Yecheng, Jicheng, Guanggu, Pengcheng, Guangling, Jiangling, Chengdu, Chang'an, Guzang, Xuchang, Dunhuang and other cities, all using Orchid and Lenu from the Western Regions. The restaurant is bound to be turned into a gold-selling cave. If you are doing business these days and don't have any guards, how can you defeat the local snakes?" Li Yi was all smiles.

"That's it?" Li Yue looked at him.

He also looked at Li Yue, his eyes as pure as the Hu Ji Le girl soliciting customers at Chaling Winery, "Otherwise, what else can we do?"

"With so many cities opening, His Highness has a lot of financial resources!" Wang Meng pointed out the key point in one sentence.

Li Yue was stunned. Whether he was a staff member or a business owner, he needed start-up capital. Where did he get so much money?

Chaling Restaurant's 20% profit is obviously not enough.

"Your Majesty, who has so many things to do, can still care about your nephew so much. My nephew is so grateful." Li Yi said something. "As the saying goes, if you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be successful. My nephew knows that he has insufficient financial resources, so he asked Zheng, Pei, and Liu The Wei Zhu family borrowed a little bit, and if they make a profit in the future, they can just return it to them."

Wang Meng glanced at Li Yue and hesitated to speak.

Money comes in, money goes out, favors come and go, and interests are gradually tied together.

The noble clans such as Zheng, Pei, Liu, and Wei certainly did not lend money to him for the purpose of making money.

"My son is the only one who can accomplish anything in the world!" Li Yue still praised him.

"My father is wise and mighty, no matter what, I can't bring shame on my father, right?" Li Yi said with a loud flattery.

Li Yue waved his hand, "Go ahead."

"My dear, please retire." Li Yi bowed his hands and retreated.

Wang Meng, however, kept staring at his back until he couldn't see him anymore, and then looked at Li Yue, "His Highness's ambition should not be underestimated."

"Oh, what did Jinglue see?"

"I need to be shallow-minded. It is better for Your Majesty to be far-sighted."

"What you said is so confusing that I can't understand it." Li Yue said with a smile.

"His Majesty's sons and heirs are all among the best. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has conquered the south of the Yangtze River and has made great achievements through hard work. As soon as he returned to Luoyang, he took charge of the promotion of cotton. He will be a wise king in the future." Wang Meng said sternly.

Li Yue knew that he was reminding himself, but it was obviously a bit redundant. Li Jian had been in the East Palace for many years and had already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. He had pacified Jiangnan, had military achievements, and had his own team. It was no longer something that Li Yue could easily shake.

To disturb him is to disturb the country's foundation.

"Why do you need to say so much, Jing Lue? I have my own sense of proportion." In fact, Li Yue also wanted to see how capable Li Yi was.

He has no military power and no status, so how can he compete with Li Jian?

Outside the palace, Li Yi got on the carriage, closed the curtains, left the palace silently, and turned a few corners.

Avoiding the crowded area, he drove into an alley and stopped in front of a low house in the innermost part.

After waiting for a moment to make sure there was no one around, the groom tapped the wooden door a few times.

With a "squeak" sound, about 10 or 50 Chinese soldiers walked out of the door, glanced around, then lowered their heads and climbed into the carriage nimbly.

"Greetings to Your Highness."

"Mr. Quan, there is no need to be so open-minded." Li Yi rushed to this person and handed over his hand.

This person was clearly the most powerful figure in the world back then.

"Your Majesty, you are not suspicious?" Quan Yi has aged a lot, and his eyes have become much darker.

"Who is my father? He has known my thoughts for a long time. With the school affairs office here, how can I hide it from my father's eyes and ears?"

Seizing the direct descendant has been a bright card since ancient times.

No matter how careful you are, you can't escape the eyes of someone who cares. What's more, there are still Li Yue and Wang Meng above, so they can't hide it even if they want to.

"I'm sorry to say this bluntly, but the crown prince's position is solid and your majesty is wise and powerful. There is little chance of winning the throne. It's better to fight for the title of Sanwu, stay away from the land of right and wrong, and accumulate strength in secret." "Do you think my brother, the crown prince, is a fool? Father, the emperor. He won't agree. Even if he is canonized, it is still a barren land. It is either the Western Region or Lingnan or Mobei. Going to those places is worse than death. How can you accumulate strength? At most, a grass-headed king will be killed if he shows any signs of rebellion. The Central Plains will be destroyed."

"Hiss... Since Your Majesty knows everything, why do you still want to seize the direct descendant?" Quan Yi was also driven out. He originally lived incognito in his hometown in Longxi, living a comfortable life with the wealth he accumulated in the past, but Li Jian sent someone to invite him out.

Since he can come to the door, he definitely can't run away.

For the sake of his family, Quan Yi had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to Beijing.

"You don't have to worry, my father has actually acquiesced."

Li Yi's words left Quan Yi speechless in shock.

"Oh, there are probably only two people in the world who know what my father is thinking." Li Yi stretched out two fingers.

"Who is it?" Quan Yi looked at the young man in front of him and suddenly felt that he was old and could not keep up with the pace of young people.

The eldest prince's intelligence is probably still above his.

"The first one is naturally Wang Jinglue, and the second one is me." Li Yi looked proud.

"Squeak, squeak..."

There was silence in the carriage, except for the rhythmic turning of the wheels.

"Excuse me for being slow, but I wonder why your majesty sat back and watched the two sons seize the throne?" Quan Yi respectfully handed over his hand.

"Sir, do you know about the dispute between the two palaces in Soochow?" Li Yi's claim to be knowledgeable and rich was no lie.

Sun He, the crown prince of Eastern Wu, and Sun Ba, the king of Lu, competed for the legitimate title, which involved the major noble clans in the Wu Kingdom, and then purged and suppressed the major noble clans in the country. Even the famous general Lu Xun died because of this.

"So, Your Majesty is using His Highness to clean up the noble clan?" Quan Yi opened his eyes wide.

"We are inseparable, so I will cooperate with my father and try to involve as many nobles as possible. Oh, sir, I don't know how uncomfortable it is to pretend to be confused in front of my father every day, and also deliberately make it full of flaws." Li Yi stretched.

However, the look on his face did not look uncomfortable, but he was enjoying it very much.

Quan Yi breathed a long sigh of relief. Since the father and son have such a tacit understanding, the matter will be much simpler. "As long as it is not a real heir apparent, it will be much easier to handle."

"Who says it's not true?" The frivolous look on Li Yi's face disappeared, and his eyes became sharp.

"This..." Quan Yi was stunned.

"I am already involved in the game, why should I give up halfway? My father uses me to deal with the powerful nobles, and I can also use my father's power to win over people's hearts. I still don't know who will win. Sir, are you willing to help me?" Li Yi smiled. Smiling, her eyes were as pure as a dancer in a restaurant.

They were already on the pirate ship, and Quan Yi couldn't escape even if he wanted to.

He has heard such confidential things. As long as he dares to say "no", he is afraid that he will not see the sun tomorrow.

"I am willing to do the work of dogs and horses." Quan Yi handed over.

The carriage turned into Tongtuo Street, and the street was bustling with people coming and going.

"Sir, there is no need to hide. Come directly into my house. Father will know everything you need to know."

Quan Yi's whole body trembled, and he felt like a light on his back. If he was not careful, Li Yi, as the prince, might be fine, but something must have happened to him. Quan Yi gritted his teeth and said: "I will do my best!"

"With your help, you can expect great things!" Li Yi laughed.

There is a strong Kansai power behind Quan Yi, and pulling him into trouble can win over more forces.

The prince's subordinates were nobles from Hebei, so Li Yi could only turn his attention to the west.
