Powerful

Chapter 471
(The first one!)

Seeing Shen Du squinting his eyes slightly, Lu Fengde seemed to be determined.

The next moment, he heard Shen Du reply: "My lord, the Wuling vein is important because it is related to the foundation of the country's prosperity. To put it bluntly, it is related to the country's weapons. Therefore, if Dading What will happen to the world if we get the Wuling vein?"

The important weapon of the country must be observed, and it cannot be easily shown to others.A heavy weapon like the Wuling ore lode, discovered by Sheng Lie, has already made Xisheng furious; if it is allowed to go to Dading, Xisheng will definitely use any means to get it.

If he can't get it, Xisheng will try his best to destroy this heavy weapon, or...destroy the owner of this heavy weapon.

"Honglu Temple has laid out so many meticulous works in Xisheng these years. I think your lord is very clear about Xisheng's current situation. Since Sheng Ling became emperor, Xisheng has gradually become stronger by reducing military disasters and persuading farmers. Xisheng If you are warlike, you just wait for the day when you will invade Dading with all your strength. Your lord knows all of this, right?" Shen Du continued.

Following Shen Du's words, Lu Fengde's face became darker and darker.He knew the meaning of Shen Du's words too well.If Dading gets the Wuling vein, in order to prevent Dading from becoming stronger, Xisheng will not wait any longer, and can start the war immediately!
Seeing Lu Fengde's expression, Shen Du understood that he understood the meaning of the words.At that moment, he smiled wryly, lowered his voice and asked: "If there is an invasion of Xisheng, do you think that with Dading's current situation, can it be stopped? Even if it can be stopped, the country will spend a lot of money, and the foundation of the court will definitely be shaken."

Even if the Xijiang Guard led by the Fu family can stop Xisheng, but the Jingzhao household department is now managed by Zhang Guiling, and the deficit in the Jiangnan bank will not be filled within two or three years.The peace of the country is actually an empty shelf.

If a strong invasion occurs, will Dading have any wealth?Are there any soldiers available?After the rebellion between the two kings, a group of Dading generals died. After that, the emperor destroyed the Yuan family, and the involvement was extensive.The Yuan family is the gate of the world's generals and the pillar of Dading.

Even if Dading has been in peace for nearly 30 years, if it is gone, there will be no family, in-laws, and disciples who can support Dading.Not Fu Tong of the Xijiang Guard, Wei Bainian of the Huben Army, and the General of the Sixteen Guards of Dading, neither!

Moreover, in the Dading court, several princes seized the throne.Although Zhu Xuanming has been registered as the prince, which one of the five princes and the growing eleven princes is still eyeing him?
Dading continued to fight internally, while Xisheng became stronger and stronger.Under such circumstances, if the two countries go to war, what will happen to Xijiang Wei and Guochao is predictable.

Lu Fengde knew all of this, his face turned blue and red for a while, and he murmured: "That's why the emperor wants to get the Wuling vein in a hurry, so as to forge more weapons and strengthen the national strength..."

He couldn't continue speaking, because Shen Du interrupted him with one sentence: "If the imperial court got the Wuling ore vein, I guess Xisheng has raised troops before the weapons are forged. My lord said, isn't it?"

Shen Du didn't want to be so aggressive, but the emperor and the court officials only saw the huge benefits brought by the Wuling mine, but deliberately ignored the hidden dangers behind it.Even if you get the Wuling vein, if the Ministry of Finance, the Jiangnan Bank, and the Weapons Supervisor can't keep up, what's the use of getting it?

Lu Fengde blinked vigorously, and when he opened it again, he was completely naked.He stared at Shen Du, and then asked: "Since the Wuling vein is not desirable, then...Master Shen, why do you deliberately use Sheng Lie to act?"

Lu Fengde didn't know what the Shen family had done about Sheng Lie, but he knew very well that when Sheng Lie proposed to go to Wuling, he appointed Shen Du to go there, and then Shen Su was knighted, and the Shen family's predicament was also borrowed.

The Shen family received such definite benefits, if it was said that Sheng Lie and Shen Du had nothing to do with each other, Lu Fengde would not believe it even if he was beaten to death.

The Wuling vein is neither desirable, but the Shen family still proposed it through Sheng Lie, why?Is it to speed up Xisheng's invasion of Dading?This Shen Du is a spy of Xisheng? !
Speaking of which, there should be grievances between the emperor teacher and the emperor.After all, the emperor left Jingzhao and disappeared, but suddenly appeared in Jingzhao, with such a powerful Shen Du beside him.So suspicious!
Thinking of this, Lu Fengde's expression changed in surprise, his eyes moved back and forth on Shen Du's body, as if he wanted to take off his clothes to see who was inside.

If Shen Su knew that Lu Fengde would think this way, he might spit out a mouthful of blood, wishing he could close his eyes and see nothing.

Even with the seriousness of Lu Fengde's scrutinizing gaze, he never thought that Lu Fengde would regard him as a spy of Xisheng.Uh, maybe... he can think of it, but it should be after the Wuling Mine, not in the Lu family now.
So, after hearing Lu Fengde's words, he calmly replied: "My lord's question is the reason why I came down to look for you, and it's also my plan to deal with Xisheng's strength! My lord, please listen carefully..."

In the Lu family's study hall, in front of Lu Fengde, Shen Du revealed his plan.This plan was conceived by himself, embellished by Shen Su, Du Yu, Lu Qing and others, and also considered by Gu Yan, but it was only a detailed plan and hadn't been perfected yet.

Lu Fengde has not yet agreed to join, Fu Tong in Xijiang has not yet known for sure, and Changyin's trip to the south of the Yangtze River has not yet yielded results.Everything is nothing more than Shen Du's own strength, gathering everyone around him to make this plan take shape little by little.

The more Lu Fengde listened, the more dignified his expression became.This is not worry or joy, but an unspeakable weight on the heart.

The young man in front of him is right. This is really just a plan, and it is an extremely risky plan.If everything is just right, Dading will not be afraid of Xisheng's strength.If there is a mistake... then everyone who participated in this plan will be condemned!
His heart was heavy and he didn't know how to choose.

His gaze finally fell on Shen Du's face.This young man has sword eyebrows and star eyes, a calm demeanor, and a gleam in his eyes, which cannot be ignored.

Inside this light is a strong self-confidence, a silent hope, and an unshakable determination.Lu Fengde has no doubt at all, even if he did not participate in it, Shen Du's plan would not be terminated.

This young man had already postponed the presumption of the situation decades later before he came to find him. —— Lu Fengde suddenly realized.

He could see the future of Dading, as a person of Dading, as an official of Dading, and as the Minister of Honglu Temple, how could he not step into it?
