Traveling through the Gaowu Tang Dynasty, Li Kuan and Li Shimin became the second sons of the Prince

Facing the miraculous operation of His Highness King Chu, some people were convinced, while others were naturally dissatisfied.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, are you planning to let the Tang Dynasty and Goguryeo go to war?!" Yuan Gaisuwen's face turned red and he was sweating profusely, but his eyes were always burning with angry flames: "Gao Qi So it’s wrong, but if you humiliate the diplomatic envoys like this, aren’t you afraid of being laughed at by other countries?!”

"Hey!" Li Kuan laughed disdainfully when he heard this: "Laughing? Is this king afraid of being laughed at?"

Perhaps "sincerity" is His Royal Highness the King of Chu's only advantage in the eyes of most courtiers, so when he said these words, laughter burst out in the palace.

Even Wei Zheng couldn't help but shake his cheeks a few times, and then looked at Yuengai Suwen with a little sympathy.

For this Goguryeo envoy who did not even know to avoid the name of the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan when announcing his surname, Wei Zheng actually wanted to give him a piece of advice: that is, you had better choose to shut up rationally and wait with peace of mind while His Highness the King of Chu is looking forward to Zixiong. His Majesty Li Er, who felt that he was shameless, turned around and punished him.

On the contrary, once you confront him and let His Majesty Li Er start to protect his shortcomings, then the "man" king of Chu will probably be fine. If a huge turmoil is said to have come to an end safely, it will have come to an end safely.

Of course, I want to think about it, but Wei Zheng still has a position, and he will never do anything to collaborate with the enemy.

So I’d better be a polite spectator...

In addition to feeling humiliated by the laughter of the civil and military officials in the court, Yeon Gaesumun also understood one thing: that is, the young prince of the Tang Dynasty who looked like a reckless man in front of him, although his reputation was not good. , but the popularity seems to be quite high.

So in view of the other party's previous arrogant style, and the middle-aged civil servant behind him who easily restrained him, Yuan Gaisuwen knew that this King of Chu was not only favored by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but there might also be a powerful force behind him. Not a small force.

After understanding these two points, Yeon Gaesumun's mind suddenly flashed back to the scene where his beloved woman entered the palace that day and became the Princess of Goguryeo...

How dare you die if you don't take revenge for taking your wife?

Just when Yeon Gaesumun was about to compromise, a certain person said loudly: "By the way, you said you want to go to war with the Tang Dynasty?" - After making all the officials in the palace laugh, they didn't feel dissatisfied at all. Only then did Li Kuan remember the key point in his words. He couldn't help but squat down and looked at Yuengai Suwen: "Can you declare war on behalf of Goguryeo and the Tang Dynasty? That would be the best. It happens that my father has this The generals all have nothing to do now, how about we practice?"

When Li Kuan said these words, which were similar to those spoken by street gangsters looking for trouble in a fight, Cheng Yaojin was the first among the generals to respond loudly: "His Royal Highness, the King of Chu, said these words to cheer up, practice and practice." practice!"

Cheng Yaojin said, and turned to bow to Li Er: "Your Majesty, due to the outstanding performance of His Highness the Crown Prince, the danger of the locust plague has now been resolved. I heard that after this disaster relief food, there will be about one million left. Shi, just in time, now that we have this batch of food, we have no worries, why not use it to attack Goguryeo?"

"Knowing the truth..." His Majesty Li Er knew that Cheng Yaojin only stood up and said this just to support Li Kuan. If he really wanted to attack Goguryeo and didn't deal with the Turks, he would be asking for trouble.

Therefore, at the moment, His Majesty Li Er can only adopt an indecisive posture as a deterrent. This can also be regarded as a manifestation of political wisdom.

But who is Yeon Gaesumun?

His father Yeon Taejo, as the lord of the eastern part of Goguryeo and Da Dulu (equivalent to the prime minister), could almost be regarded as a man who could dominate the sky with one hand, so his teachings to his son were naturally extraordinary. Under his father's words and deeds, today Yeon Gae So-moon, a young man in his twenties, actually already possesses extraordinary political insight and a strategic vision that is not originally belonging to his age - the ability to see the overall situation.

Therefore, after hearing what Cheng Yaojin said, Yeon Gaesumun silently observed His Majesty Li Er's reaction, and then he showed a contemptuous smile.

"Really?" Yeon Gaesumun's voice was very soft, but it revealed an extraordinary arrogance: "The last emperor of the Central Plains who wanted to attack Goguryeo seems to have been the king of subjugation under the nine springs. Your Majesty Do we really want to follow in this person’s footsteps? Or should we say that the Tang Dynasty also wants to follow in the footsteps of previous dynasties?!”

boom!

At this moment, the expressions of the officials who were waiting to see the joke suddenly became extremely gloomy.

But instead of getting angry, His Majesty Li Er took this opportunity to secretly observe these people. He found that some of them were angry, some were horrified, some were meditative, some... some were taking action again...

"Pah!" Li Kuan raised his hand and slapped Yeon Gaesumun unceremoniously in the face: "Damn it! Nai Gong gave you face? You scolded my father in front of me? You are a bitch? Thing! Have you never thought about going back alive?! Ah?!"

"Pfft!" Yuengai Suwen spat out a bloody tooth, glanced at Li Kuan with a sneer, and said nothing.

"Are you dissatisfied?" Li Kuan narrowed his eyes slightly.

"..." Yeon Gaesumun heard Li Kuan's teasing and was about to continue speaking, but the next moment...

"Crack!" Dou Shilun, who was just subduing him, exerted slight pressure on his hand, and a bone cracking sound came from Yuan Gaisuwen's body.

"Uh..." Yeon Gaesumun groaned in pain subconsciously, but then gritted his teeth to hold on.

"Envoy, you don't have to accept it," Dou Shilun, who was still smiling like a kind uncle next door in the eyes of everyone with shock and confusion, said, "But if you don't accept it, you can die!"

"You dare to touch me?!" Yeon Gaesumun almost tried his best to press his tongue against the roof of his mouth. After the severe pain subsided slightly, he asked sharply.

"Why don't you dare?" - The person who spoke this time was not Dou Shilun, but Li Jing, who had always remained silent among the generals.

And when he stood up and walked in front of Yeon Gaesowen, everyone in the hall, except Li Er, couldn't help but take a breath.

Li Jing, as a person who never wanted to be in the limelight, suddenly stood at the forefront of the limelight, but his expression was still very calm.

He looked at Yeon Gaesumun as if he were a corpse on the battlefield: "Do you know the difference between the former Sui Dynasty, when all three expeditions to Goryeo failed, and today's Tang Dynasty?"

Yeon Gaesumun looked at the bearded man in front of him whose aura completely suppressed him, and for a moment, he didn't know how to answer.

"Don't know? Then let me tell you the answer in person!" At this time, Li Jing suddenly was no longer the low-key Minister of the Ministry of War - this unparalleled hero who could make Hongfu girl fall in love with him at first sight. At this moment, his majesty was highlighted: "Because Li Jing at the end of the Sui Dynasty was just a humble magistrate of Mayi County, but Li Jing in the second year of Zhenguan was already the Minister of War of the Tang Dynasty!

If your Majesty wants to conquer Goguryeo now and entrust the army to my command, you will know what it means to be devastated, to shed blood and drift, and to... be defeated like a mountain! "

By the end of Li Jing's words, Yeon Gaesumun's face was ashen, and the entire Tai Chi Hall had become silent at some point, and one could almost hear a pin drop.
