Steel Dynasty - Chapter 841

[Chapter 839 Encourage]

The cool breeze came from the hand-operated fan in the royal study, and Li Chuyuan was sweating profusely at this time.

Beads of sweat as big as beans rolled down.

He now understands that Xiao Ming’s real target this time is indeed the Chu State, and for him, this is a crucial conversation. If he makes one wrong move, he will fall into a situation that is beyond redemption.

Therefore, he first decided to pretend to be stupid, because he always likes his opponent to reveal his trump card first, so he said: “I don’t understand what the emperor means.”

Hearing this, Xiao Ming smiled, Li Chuyuan may be a lustful person, But being born in the environment of the Chu Kingdom, he would not be a political idiot.

“Son, please stop pretending to be stupid. You know the situation of the Chu Kingdom better than me now. Your father is seeking his own death. Once the Cao family interferes with the Chu Kingdom.” In terms of government affairs, this Chu State is the Chu State of the Cao family, not the royal Chu State. After all, the reason why Emperor Gaozu valued the Chu State to the Li family was because of the friendship back then. Are you right? “Xiao Ming said with a smile.

Li Chuyuan’s face paled. Xiao Ming’s words were obviously threatening. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded and agreed: “The emperor is right. How can the Chu Kingdom fall into the hands of others? hand? Not to mention that the emperor would not agree, even the lower officials would not agree. “

That’s right. In fact, I have been very optimistic about you in the past few years since you have been in Qingzhou. This crisis is a common crisis for the Chongqing and Chu countries. After weighing it, I decided to let you return to Lin’an.” “Xiao Ming stared at Li Chuyuan and said.

“Let… let me go back? “Li Chuyuan pointed at himself and said in disbelief.

Xiao Ming nodded affirmatively, “The Kingdom of Chu has been bewitched by sycophants, and now only you, the heir apparent, can turn the tide. “

For him, it was only a matter of time to capture the Chu State, just to reduce casualties. He hoped that when he went south, the Chu State would become vulnerable due to civil strife.

The person who caused the Chu State to be in civil strife was Li Chuyuan.

What he can be sure of is that the prince will definitely not wear the same pants with the Cao family. Even if he cooperates with the Cao family under the pressure of the King of Chu, he will definitely trust the Cao family.

“Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. Thank you, Your Majesty. Ron. “Li Chuyuan couldn’t help himself with excitement. Two years passed in the blink of an eye in Qingzhou. During these two years, he missed his Chu country all the time.

Now he can finally go back.

“Pack up and go back. , remember what I said to you, life or death, wealth or poverty, these are your own choices. “Xiao Ming reminded him again.

Li Chuyuan nodded and thanked him again and again before leaving the imperial study.

Qian Dafu looked at Li Chuyuan’s figure with a puzzled look on his face and said, “Your Majesty, let Li Chuyuan do this. After returning, isn’t the emperor afraid that the King of Chu will lose his only taboo and launch an attack in the north?

“

Xiao Ming smiled and said, “If this is the case, I will be famous as a teacher. What I am afraid of is that the King of Chu will not take action. For me, it makes no difference whether Li Chuyuan is in Qingzhou, but it does not matter to the Chu State. Same thing, how could Li Chuyuan be willing to give up his soon-to-be-assembled wealth and power to the Cao family? After all, the relationship between Li Chuyuan and the Cao family was only average. “

After a pause, he continued: “And if the King of Chu dies, Li Chuyuan, who has inherited the position of King of Chu, will definitely have intensified conflicts with the Cao family. At that time, attacking Chu will be more effective with half the effort. “

Qian Dafu nodded slightly. He understood now that the emperor had made a clear move against the King of Chu. If everything goes well, Li Chuyuan would play the role of a troublemaker once he returns.

While the two were talking, Li Chuyuan Chu Yuan left the palace and headed for his house. He could not wait to return to Lin’an. He missed the feeling that one person was inferior to ten thousand people.

His life in Qingzhou for the past two years was really frustrating .

, after all, as a proton, he was just a bargaining chip.

After returning to the yard, he immediately packed his things and headed to Lin’an. In fact, he could see through Xiao Ming’s thoughts, but he had to say that Xiao Ming was really powerful, and this time he talked about his pain points.

He will definitely fight with the Cao family when he returns to Chu State. He doesn’t want to lose his rights and status.

When he learned that Li Chuyuan was going back, the expression of the old housekeeper who served Li Chuyuan changed drastically. He said: ” Your Highness, you are going back to Lin’an now. Do you want to discuss it with His Highness the King of Chu? “

Li Chuyuan sneered twice, then he raised his foot and kicked the old housekeeper hard, and said angrily: “You old dog, do you really think I don’t know about your hookups with those businessmen? This bastard Cao Kun must have given you a lot of benefits, right? Why, let me wait for two days so that you can report the news? “

Obviously, the old housekeeper didn’t expect that Li Chuyuan would hurt anyone. He lay on the ground and groaned. Li Chuyuan was so strong that he almost broke his bones when he kicked him.

But Li Chuyuan guessed it right this time. He did often betray Li Chuyuan’s whereabouts in exchange for money, and he knew that someone was spying on Li Chuyuan.

Seeing the frightened look on the old housekeeper’s face, Li Chuyuan became even more furious, and he punched the old housekeeper again. Beating and kicking.

After venting his anger, the old housekeeper was already dying. At this time, Li Chuyuan left the house without looking back. He secretly vowed to embarrass the Cao family…

Lin’an

, Cao Kun sneezed. Rubbing his nose, he turned to look north.

Next to Cao Kun was the French instructor Basile and the missionary Richard, who were now very friendly friends.

Behind him were his eldest son Cao Zhengtong

. To formally announce the establishment of the Merchant Council, from now on insert one foot into the game of power.

“Chairman Cao, what your council needs now is an army. Without an army, your Merchant Council is just a puppet. In my opinion, it is necessary to establish a new council. It’s time for the army. “There was a complicated look in Richard’s eyes.

Cao Kun was excited when he heard this. Richard’s words came to his heart. The merchant council without the power to command the army is just an empty shell.

“What do you think, Mr. Richard? “Cao Kun asked.

Richard hesitated for a moment. In the past two years, Cao Kun had taken them all over the mountains and rivers in the south, and at the same time he had made them very rich.

Because of this, their relationship with Cao Kun is getting better and better, and now they often give advice to Cao Kun.

Having experienced the French Revolution, they like the conference that Cao Kun is promoting from the bottom of their hearts, because it will mean that they will be more difficult to deal with than a dictatorship.

“Actually, it’s very simple. One is for the country and the other is for money. Although the King of Chu has many troops, he lacks good soldiers and generals. Now as long as you are willing to spend money, we can train you excellent private soldiers. After all, Your family is still qualified to recruit tribes here, and this tribe army is your strength.”

PS: I just came home from the hospital tonight, and I stayed up so late that I can only code this chapter. There will be more snails tomorrow. Yes, as for the eunuch that everyone is worried about, he still doesn’t know how to do it. For the sake of Princess Snail, the snail will also work hard.
