Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

Near Yuanzheng, there was a heavy snowfall. Li Shen brought everyone in the family except Wu Meiniang to Huangzhuang.

Organize restaurants that have nothing to do at home to build a ski resort on the hillside behind them, and transport all the surrounding snow here by carriage.

The villagers had nothing to do anyway, they were having fun with their masters, and they were having fun.

A large ski base was built here in two days, with flat ski trails, various slides, and various snow sculptures.

Li Shen even had a snow city built next to it.

The children in Zhuangzi finally found a place to play. The four Zhuangzi children, plus the adults, had thousands of people playing here every day.

And Li Shen, Lu Dingniang and others had a great time playing every day.

Until one day Wang Xuance hurriedly came to Huangzhuang and reported something to Li Shen.

"Where did you get this news from? Is it accurate?" Li Shen asked.

At the moment they are in the royal manor of Huangzhuang,

"Your Majesty, when I went to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, I overheard my servant talking about it. And this shouldn't be a secret.

After Yuan Zheng, news will come out. Wang Xuance replied.

When he was going to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to do something, he overheard two ministers chatting.

One of the most important pieces of information was that His Majesty ordered Zhi lost his mind to go to the northwest, and he would leave immediately after passing Yuanzheng.

This attracted Wang Xuance's attention. Logically speaking, the northwest is colder than Chang'an, and the winter lasts longer than Chang'an. Logically speaking, you should go there after spring.

However, the imperial decree was for Zhi to immediately lead Zuo Xiaowei to Xizhou after he lost his thinking power. This was somewhat unreasonable.

That's why he reported the matter to Li Shen as soon as possible, because their current focus of investigation is Zhilosi Sili.

But the fact that Zhi loses his thinking power and wants to go to the northwest at this time makes people a little suspicious.

"My lord, do you think this is a coincidence?" Wang Xuance asked tentatively.

Li Shen thought for a moment and then said:

"Something feels wrong. Logically speaking, the northwest border should not send a demoted general as the commander. Now Yi Guogong has returned to Chang'an and assumed the post of General Zuo Wuwei.

Yi Guogong is both civil and military, and his force is extraordinary, so he is much more powerful than that person who just has some power. "

"What the prince said, I agree with, and even if there is an emergency at the border, the imperial court should not send just one general there.

But if he goes to the northwest, it will be difficult for us to investigate. Wang Xuance nodded and said.

"Yeah, if this guy goes to the northwest, we won't be able to investigate him. It's not easy to sneak into the military camp.

In this way, you are going to ask someone to check and see if there is anyone else going to the northwest this time. "

Wang Xuance nodded after listening to Li Shen's order, but he opened his mouth and finally said nothing.

His action happened to be seen by Li Shen, so he asked:

"Do you have anything else to say?"

Wang Xuance hesitated again and again, then turned around and listened to the movement outside the door. Then he whispered:

"Your Majesty, I think this matter is very strange. Can you tell me if it was done by the higher-ups? If so, I think it would be better for us not to investigate further."

Li Shen looked at Wang Xuance's finger pointing upward and understood what he meant.

To be honest, he has also thought about this problem, but many things don't make sense.

In his previous life, Li Shen often watched some criminal investigation documentaries or suspense movies, which talked about the most basic thing: motivation.

Everything has a motive for committing the crime, even mentally ill people have their own purposes.

But Li Shen couldn't imagine what the motive was if it was the person who did it. If it was suppression, it would have no effect at all.

A business in the northern grasslands wouldn't do much to Li Shen.

If it was for the sake of making money, it would be even more nonsense. If you find any reason to cheat Li Shen, the money you get is comparable to the profit of the north in a year.

So Li Shen thought about it and rejected his idea.

"Xuance, I don't think so. Think about the benefits you can get from doing this. No matter who you are, they have a purpose in doing anything.

What benefit do you think this will bring to that person? "

Wang Xuance couldn't refute Li Shen's words for a moment. Indeed, doing so would do him no good.

"But I always feel that there is something fishy about this matter. We have just been investigating Zhi Losi Si Li, and Zhi Los Si Li is about to go to the northwest border.

Finally found a person, but was killed by Zhi lost his thinking power.

Prince, don’t you think this is too coincidental. I feel like there is someone behind this that has been controlling everything, and is even ahead of us. "

Wang Xuance expressed his guess,

"No matter what, you first go and find out if anyone else is going to the northwest, and don't let too many people know about it.

Always pay attention to the news in the north. No matter who it is, being able to hide such a large team in the north can be regarded as his trump card.

Since we can't find the real owner, let's cut off his claws and see if he pops out in pain. "

Li Shen interrupted Wang Xuance's random thoughts. No matter who this person was, even if it was really him, Li Shen would pull out these minions in the north.

"Yes, my lord."

Li Shen suddenly said again:

"Also, let the pirate group not be idle. It's cold in the north, so go explore the southern seas, find islands, and explore the sea.

The sea is a natural treasure with endless wealth waiting for us to explore.

Our large clipper vessels are fully capable of long voyages at sea.

Tell the crew that I have always been a generous person, and whether their descendants will be rich or not depends on their performance.

Let Fuzhou shipyards continue to build large-scale clipper ships. "

"I obey the prince's order." Wang Xuance saluted Li Shen solemnly and then left.

Li Shen sat in the study and didn't leave for a long time. He was thinking. After a long time, he sighed. Said to himself:

"What exactly do you want to do?"

~~~~Smoke again~~~~

Today is the Great Dynasty, and the court hall is particularly lively. Officials of the fifth rank and above in Chang'an have to go to the court. Today, the envoys of the Japanese state, Inugami Mita Shu and Suga Linbai, submitted their credentials to the Tang Dynasty on behalf of the Japanese state.

In fact, it was a letter written by their emperor.

And conveyed the request of Japan.

"His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, a particularly powerful group of pirates appeared on the sea this year. They robbed homes, hijacked merchant ships, killed crew members, and committed all kinds of evil.

Now our Japanese country has lost dozens of ships and thousands of crew members. They are mainly targeting our Japanese ships.

Our king hopes that Datang can send navy to destroy this pirate group to ensure that we can communicate normally. "Inugami Mita Shu, as the envoy of the mission, said.
