Chapter 63 [Discussions about the ruthless people in the Tang Dynasty]
Not only the emperor, but also the queen. Later, Cheng Yaojin, Changsun Wuji and others also stepped forward, each holding a handful of salt and licking it gently.
Very salty!
It makes people's mouth twitch.
However, none of the monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty had bitter faces, but instead sighed and stared at Li Yun.
After a long time, the king and his ministers left hand in hand. When they were about to leave, Qin Qiong suddenly patted Li Yun on the shoulder. The loyal Shandong man wanted to speak but stopped, and finally turned into only six short words: "You must be cruel, don't be afraid..."
Li Yun was stunned!
He stood at the foot of the mountain with a little confused look on his face, watching the figures of the big guys gradually disappear. Cheng Chumo next to him was also confused and scratched his head, "Master, what does Uncle Qin mean? He made you feel cruel?"
Without waiting for Li Yun to answer, he said to himself: "Uncle Qin is the most loyal person. If Old Man Changsun said this, his disciple would not be surprised. Why did Uncle Qin say that what happened to Uncle Qin today?"
Li Yun couldn't figure it out either!
...
The two young men didn't know that just after the Tang Dynasty rulers and ministers left here, Li Shimin suddenly stopped and looked back at Xiaoyan Mountain from afar.
The emperor suddenly turned cold and said in a deep voice: "Cheng Zhijie listened to the order."
Cheng Yaojin seemed to have been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and heard this, he quickly bent down to listen respectfully.
But seeing Li Shimin's face was slightly cold, and his tiger's eyes shot out a fierce light, he said word by word: "Now, Cheng Yaojin, the founding master, is good at teaching his children, and it is beneficial to apprenticeship, establishing industries, making fine salt, and the contributions are in the world and the people. Because his son has not yet won the title, the contributions are temporarily taken by his father. I specially granted that the Duke Lu's mansion can be more than one level, equipped with three hundred strong bows and two hundred weapons, and given Cheng Zhijie can build 500 private troops, thinking that it is the ceremonial guard of the Duke."
The emperor stopped here and then said: "These five hundred private troops are all selected from the Royal Hundred Cavalry Division. They are 100 cavalry and 400 steps. They only choose those who are cruel and good at killing. They must not be over thirty years old. Cheng Zhijie, do you understand..."
Old Cheng bent down and saluted, "My decree Cheng Yaojin, I received the order and thank Your Majesty for your kindness. I will die!"
After the etiquette was finished, he stood up straight and said with a serious expression: "Don't worry, your Majesty, I will never use my own 500 private troops. I will station them all in Xiaoyan Mountain, and even a bird is not allowed to fly in."
Li Shimin nodded.
Empress Changsun was reluctant to speak but stopped, and after a long time, she carefully said, "Your Majesty, why don't you speak again and equip that child with some private soldiers? Once the salt-making incident spreads, I am afraid that he will usher in countless covetousness."
Li Shimin looked at her and seemed to be very moved by the queen's proposal, but the emperor pondered for a long time and shook his head, and said helplessly: "It is okay to be equipped with private soldiers, but what excuses can be used? Could it be that he has made contributions to salt? You should know why I deliberately put the credit on Cheng Chumo..."
The queen nodded and said softly: "Because Cheng Chumo is not only the eldest son of the Duke, but also the nephew of the old man Qinghe, the aristocratic family dare not do anything to Cheng Chumo, and they can only follow the rules."
"That's the reason!"
Li Shimin sighed and said, "But that child is different. His identity is a refugee."
The queen was very worried and said, "In order to seize the interests, the aristocratic family has very poor methods."
Qin Qiong suddenly spoke with a calm expression: "Don't worry, Empress, I have told him that you should be cruel, don't be afraid..."
"What's the use of him being cruel?"
Changsun was very unhappy and said angrily: "If the aristocratic family sent a dead man to tie him up and then torture him for confession, would this child be useful just by being cruel? Your Majesty must equip him with escorts..."
When the queen said this, she suddenly stopped and found that the ministers were all looking at her with strange looks. Even her husband was also strange, as if she had said something ridiculous.
"You..." The queen opened her mouth and said with a huff: "What are your eyes?"
Li Shimin suddenly smiled, reached out to hold Empress Changsun's soft horn (ti), and joked: "When you care, you are confused, you are confused, Guanyin maid, you have always been smart, and you never thought you would be foolish and confused for a day..."
"Is this wrong?"
"Haha, Guanyinbi, what you said is of course wrong."
Li Shimin deliberately wanted to be anxious about the queen, but refused to tell the reason.
In the end, Changsun Wuji felt sorry for his sister and coughed lightly on the side and explained: "My lady, don't worry, that child is not afraid of the dead soldiers. Not to mention the dead soldiers, even the assassin is fine. If there are too many people coming, Cheng Yaojin's private soldiers will take it down, and if there are fewer people coming, I'm afraid that even a splash will not sound."
"Why?" Empress Changsun was really concerned and she was confused. She still couldn't understand it.
Li Shimin smiled helplessly and pointed at Xiao Yanshan in the distance and said, "Four hammers knocked down the mountain rocks, who is like this? Guanyin maid, think about it, when the third brother dominated the world, which dead soldier could assassinate him?"
Queen Changsun was stunned for a moment, and her face gradually showed surprise, but suddenly she felt worried again and said hurriedly: "It's different, this is different. The third brother is not only born with divine power, but also not afraid of bows, arrows, swords and guns..."
"The same goes for that child!"
Cheng Yaojin suddenly took over the conversation and explained to the queen respectfully: "Does Empress still remember that when he and Chen's daughter were fighting, he had stepped forward and kicked him in anger?"
"Remember, what's wrong?"
Cheng Yaojin's old face turned red and hummed, "Men's ankle still hurts now, and it was swollen by the counter-shake when he kicked him."
As he said that, he lifted up his trousers to show everyone. Good guy, he saw that Lao Cheng's ankles were red, swollen and blue, and thick as if they were pig's trotters.
Old Cheng took a deep breath and said, "I have also asked my dog son Chumo, the child once broke the steel knife with one punch. Today you have also seen it. He directly used his fist to fight the little girl's axe. When King Zhao of Xifu was invulnerable to swords and guns, the child was also awakening this power..."
Queen Changsun has no worries anymore.
At this time, Li Shimin spoke a little worriedly and murmured: "What I am worried about now is that he dare not kill people. If he really encounters danger, he will only be restrained."
Qin Qiong spoke in a muffled voice and said, "So before I leave, I tell him that I should be cruel and not be afraid. The eagle always wants to fly to the sky, and the general always needs to see blood. He can only break through this level by himself. All we can do is to wake him up in advance."
Li Shimin nodded at Qin Qiong and praised: "Brother Shubao is ready for the future. I will thank the child first."
Qin Qiong bowed and said solemnly: "Your Majesty must not use this title again."
Li Shimin smiled and said, "It's not the court today, so what if you call you second brother."
Qin Qiong was greatly moved.
At this time, Changsun Wuji suddenly saw a smile on his beard and a slight swaying on his face. Everyone subconsciously took a step back. Li Xiaogong cursed angrily: "What's wrong with you guy holding?"
Changsun Wuji smiled casually and said lightly: "I think that child is not a person who suffers losses. You may have never heard of it. He even dared to kill the refugee. On that day, he held half a blue brick in his hand and smashed the palm of his hand. Afterwards, he gave a sweet date and let the refugee make a living with him."
"The aristocratic family is not a refugee..." Li Xiaogong snorted.
Changsun Wuji laughed and said slowly: "As long as the child is cruel enough, what is the difference between aristocratic families and refugees?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that this was reasonable.
Li Shimin's eyes shining brightly and said meaningfully: "I can't wait now and I really want to see how many people he can kill..."
