Signing in to Datang: Rebellion at the beginning

Chapter 42 Retribution
The king of Silla was sweating profusely, fearful and fearful. At this moment, his previous self-confidence, the self-confidence that he thought he could fight against the Dragon Kingdom, was gone at this moment!
Yes, only fear, and surrender.

Li Ke did not take the jade seal, but turned around, turned his back to King Silla, looked at the huge square of the palace, and said:

"If you chose to surrender completely from the beginning, why did you end up here!"

King Silla lowered his head, extremely regretful.

Yes, if you surrender at the beginning, you may be able to protect your family.

But if you surrender now, it's not surrender, it's a loss.

"Your Majesty, please be merciful..." King Silla said, hoping to receive the same treatment as King Baekje.

Although the throne is gone, the glory and wealth are still there.

Li Ke smiled lightly: "There must be something worthy of my kindness, do you have it!"

"I am willing to marry my daughter to His Majesty..."

King Silla remembered the routine of King Baekje.

Li Ke frowned and looked back at his daughters, and sneered:

"Unfortunately, she is not as good-looking as the daughter of King Baekje, so this is not worthy of my favor."

With that said, Li Ke turned and left, and the voice came again faintly:
"This time, I'm going to conquest personally. You are very ignorant. Since you are so ignorant, if I keep it, it will appear that I have no majesty!"

King Silla was taken aback for a moment, but the next moment, Li Ke waved his hand.

Gunshots rang out, and the King of Silla and his wife and family fell down one after another.

But he didn't even figure out why Li Ke killed him. He thought it was because Li Ke didn't like his daughter...

"Proclaim to the world that Silla belongs to the Dragon Kingdom!"

Li Ke said, taking a deep breath.

So far, the three countries in the east have been unified by him.

As a result, the territory of the Dragon Kingdom expanded again.

Although compared with Datang, it is still a lot worse.

For the remaining few days, Li Ke personally sat in Xinluo and let his subordinates handle many things in Xinluo.

The first is to appease the people, control officials from all over the country, and let them all be quickly under the jurisdiction of the Dragon Kingdom.

In addition, some potentially threatening forces, such as big families, big aristocratic families, and vassal kings from all over the country, were all pulled out.

After dealing with these potential threats, Li Ke asked Li Yong to station troops in some important places in Silla. Only then could he completely stabilize and control Silla.

Li Ke was also completely relieved, and set off in a few days, and returned to the imperial capital of the Dragon Kingdom after a few days of rushing.

This time of triumph, Li Ke was warmly welcomed by the people as soon as he entered the imperial capital.

Obviously, under the rule of Goguryeo, the common people were really useless.

Now they are the citizens of the Dragon Kingdom, and the Dragon Kingdom is so powerful that they are really proud.

In particular, Li Ke was not only able to fight in all directions, but also issued a series of policies to benefit the people, allowing the common people to eat salt, allowing farmers to farm easily, and at the same time building with steel to drive industrial development.

All these things made the common people worship the young emperor of Longguo extremely.

Li Ke was riding on the horse, seeing the people love him so much, he couldn't help smiling, very happy.

In this way, after returning to the palace all the way, Wu Meiniang brought all the civil and military officials to greet her.

Back in the palace, Li Ke learned about some recent events in Longguo, and was very satisfied with Wu Meiniang's work.

When Li Ke returned to the palace, Tang Guo Li Er also received the news that Long Guo had taken Silla.

Li Er was shocked at the time, looked at Li Junxian and said:

"Are you serious? That Nizi only took five or six days, singing all the way, and took down Silla?"

Li Junxian said: "Your Majesty, it is absolutely true. It is said that Silla has been completely ruled. Today's Dragon Kingdom has doubled its strength and should not be underestimated."

Li Er looked shocked, sat back on the chair, and said:
"Zhen, I have really underestimated this rebellious son all this time..."

After a moment of silence, Li Er said again: "Are you sure he has that powerful weapon this time?"

Li Junxian said: "I'm sure, it's an iron ball called a bomb. If you ignite it with fire, it will explode. The range is less than ten feet, and the lethality is huge. His army has been using this to break through the city gates. Wherever it goes, it is like a broken bamboo!"

Li Er narrowed his eyes: "That is to say, if my Tang Kingdom rashly starts a war with Long Kingdom, and they have a lot of bombs, wouldn't it mean that we won't get any benefits?"

Li Junxian was silent, he thought so too, but he couldn't say it.

Li Er's expression turned ugly, and he said, "If he continues to grow, sooner or later, he will be so strong that Tang Kingdom is afraid... But right now, he has such a weapon, and I really don't dare to act rashly."

In any case, breaking Baekje in a few days and taking Silla in a few days, he thinks that Datang is currently unable to do so.

Therefore, it can prove that the bomb of the Dragon Kingdom is indeed powerful.

And Li Er also believes that the strength of the Dragon Kingdom depends entirely on the bomb.

After much deliberation, he made a decision.

Looking at Li Junxian, he said: "You, find a way to go to Longguo, and you must get the method of making the bomb."

Li Junxian was taken aback, stealing the secrets of Long Kingdom's bomb?
How does this feel? It's not very reliable!

So he thought about it and said, "Your Majesty, who should you send?"

This kind of matter is too big and very important, so Li Junxian can only ask the emperor for advice.

Li Er was silent for a while, and said, "Let Hou Junji send his cronies, and you will be in charge of delivering the news."

"Yes!"

"Remember, we must find a way to get the bomb making method. Our country is powerful in the Tang Dynasty. Once we have a terrible weapon like a bomb, let alone a mere dragon country, even the whole world can control it!"

After Li Er finished speaking, Li Junxian bowed and left.

Watching Li Junxian leave, Li Er's eyes shone with ambition...

But right now.

A eunuch came in and said:

"Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince was agitated in the East Palace, and wanted to raise his sword, saying that he was going to kill His Highness the King of Wei..."

Li Er suddenly had a headache and sighed helplessly.

What gave him a headache during this period was undoubtedly the matter of the crown prince and King Wei.

Whether the king of Wei took Li Ke's bomb to blow up the prince, or the prince deliberately set up a trap to frame the king of Wei, I still don't know the answer.

However, the crown prince became more and more extreme, and the ministers were admonishing to change the crown prince. Li Chengqian didn't know how to restrain himself, but went too far.

This made Li Er not sure what to do.

After thinking about it, I have to say:
"Go and see!"

Once outside the East Palace, Li Chengqian's angry voice could be heard inside.

Li Er frowned, but had no choice but to go in.

As soon as he entered, he saw Li Chengqian slashing at a dead eunuch with a sword, scolding Li Tai while slashing.

Li Er shouted angrily:

"Nizi, what are you doing!"

Li Chengqian looked up at Li Er and said:
"Father, Father, it was Li Tai who made me like this, why didn't you punish him...why?"

Li Er shouted angrily: "If there is no evidence, how do you punish? Besides, if it was him, you might already be dead."

Li Chengqian was stunned: "Father, you are biased. Everyone knows that you love Li Tai, but I am the crown prince, and I am the prince. Now that the prince's leg is crippled by him, you still protect him?"

If Li Ke was here, he would definitely smile and say to Li Chengqian:
"retribution……"
