Chapter 416 is angry
"Borrow a boat?" Zhou Kui opened his mouth, somewhat unbelievable.
"That's right, we're just borrowing a boat!" Manager Zhao said matter-of-factly:
"After His Majesty ascended the throne, he reached a verbal engagement with the Qingyuan Army and asked for the daughter of the Yuliu Envoy. Now that it has been two years, it is appropriate for him to accept it!"
Hearing this, the corners of Zhou Kui's mouth twitched. He opened his mouth and then said:
"This, if something goes wrong and triggers a war between the two countries, it will be my fault! Borrowing a boat to show off your power requires an order from the Governor's Office. If you borrow a boat at will, it will be fine if it is for an instant, but if it goes wrong,
I made a big mistake..."
After hearing these words, Manager Zhao's expression suddenly changed, his eyebrows furrowed, and he said, "If this delays important royal affairs, can Commander Zhou afford it?"
Hearing this question, Zhou Kui was instantly annoyed. He was also a man with a temper. Now that he was the leader of an army, he enjoyed great power and blessings. Very few people scolded him in person. But now, as a small manager,
How dare you be so presumptuous.
"Huh, according to the imperial court's regulations, even if you mobilize a ship or a soldier, you still need an order from the Governor's Office. If I do it without an order, the people in the Military Police Department will not be able to spare me. Even if I have made a great contribution, I still can't afford it. I'll hire someone else to take care of it.
Be smart!"
Zhou Kui started to fight without any concern for his face.
"Okay, okay, Commander Zhou, I hope you'll take care of yourself!" Manager Zhao shook off his sleeves and left angrily.
"Hmph, how arrogant!" Zhou Kui snorted. These people from Shaofu Temple are really overbearing. The little steward dares to instruct him, the leader of an army. If it were in a local area, wouldn't it be even more arrogant?
"Come here, do some research. The Li Chamber of Commerce and the Qingyuan Army have been involved recently!" As the commander of the Hailong Army, Zhou Kui often dealt with businessmen, and the news on the sea was very smooth.
Moreover, he had never heard of the engagement between the emperor and the Qingyuan Army. After all, there was no preparation for the use of force during this period. If the Qingyuan Army were to be forcibly oppressed, Southern Tang and Wu Yue would naturally be involved. In this way, a fight would be inevitable.
"Damn it, I actually missed a great feat!"
Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered that if a war broke out, his sea dragon army would be indispensable, and his achievements would greatly increase.
However, he couldn't bear the thought of being provocative.
Moreover, the military police department of the Navy Dragon Army will not let go of the hawk when it sees the rabbit. If it launches troops without a military order, it will really be a joke on its own.
Later, news came that it turned out that the Li Chamber of Commerce's business in the Qingyuan Army was blocked and it was not easy to make money, so they planned to trick the Hailong Army into going to the Qingyuan Army. The excuse was of course to urge the marriage. When hundreds of warships from the Hailong Army appeared, they were naturally shocked.
It's hard to express.
As a result, business was done well, and Hai Longjun took the blame.
"You're so insidious and cunning, you deserve to die!" Fortunately, I refused sternly. If I had been greedy for merit, my career would have been ruined.
"Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!" Although he was afraid of offending Shaofu Temple, but now that he had been offended and plotted against, he couldn't help but feel sick in his heart.
Immediately, a piece of paper went straight to Tianting.
"Shaofu Temple is so bold and has asked for a marriage contract on my behalf. That's great, great!"
Li Jia laughed angrily. When his father was alive, he would most likely have to listen to him. But now, he is being arranged by others for profit.
Using the emperor's name to involve military power, no matter when, is a grave sin of deceiving the emperor.
Borrowing troops today is just to promote marriage, but tomorrow it is possible to borrow troops to rebel. This trend must not rise.
"Let the Sound Department investigate in detail. If there is no mistake, we can arrest him and let Dali Temple strictly examine him!"
"Nuo——" Seeing the emperor's angry look, Tian Zhong immediately stepped forward to respond and said worriedly: "Your Majesty, there is no need to be angry for these villains, it is not worth it if you are so angry!"
"I understand!" Li Jia waved his hand, took a sip of tea, and then said:
"These officials all regard the emperor as a fool and are satisfied with being manipulated by him. They say they are doing business with the Qingyuan Army. When did they become so enthusiastic? I'm afraid it is for their own selfish interests! Shaofu Temple seems to be too wormy.
It’s too much, so it’s time to clean it up!”
The more he thought about it, the more Li Jia was afraid of thinking more sinisterly about people. Perhaps what he hated most was when others took advantage of him and poached others, which was the most abominable thing.
Fortunately, everyone named Wang in the palace has been castrated, otherwise he would really have trouble sleeping.
Being an emperor is too stressful!
Worrying about government affairs is already exhausting. If he is still cuckolded after going to court, it is estimated that the average life span of the emperor will be even earlier.
The affairs of the harem are left to the harem to handle. Therefore, maintaining the queen's dignity and letting her take charge of the harem, although there are various unfairnesses, stability trumps everything else.
After hearing the emperor's words, Tian Zhong didn't know what to say.
In terms of status, Shaofu Temple and the Ministry of Internal Affairs are both servants of the emperor, and their statuses are almost the same. Moreover, Shaofu Temple has an official status and has a higher status.
Therefore, on this topic, he was a bit offended and did not dare to interrupt. If he was a bad person and provoked people from Shaofu Temple, there would be a lot of trouble.
In a bad mood, Li Jia wanted to chat, so he sent someone to invite Wang Ning to talk about strategic matters.
"The Qingyuan Army can move the whole body with one move. If Shaofu Temple is really so reckless, it will be extremely detrimental to the imperial court!"
When Wang Ning heard what the emperor said, he was instantly startled and said quickly:
"As for your majesty's marriage, I apologize for being rude. After the incident in Hunan, the whole world turned their attention to it. The Qingyuan Army was also extremely vigilant. They kept silent about the marriage. They must be afraid! Forcibly urging the marriage will be counterproductive!"
Hearing this, Li Jia smiled sheepishly.
Indeed, it is indeed unjustifiable to intervene in Hunan and take away the family business of the brother-in-law. In this case, who would dare to marry a girl, and who would not be frightened?
"Now that the imperial court and the people are resting, they cannot provoke the Qingyuan Army!"
"The Qingyuan Army will no longer mention it. Our Tang Dynasty's next target is Shu." Li Jia said.
Wang Ning nodded and said: "Shu is rich, most people's property has not been plundered, and the poorest people will not face the disaster of starving to death, so they will not take risks..."
"So, civil strife is difficult. We can only send troops to conquer it. Moreover, we must beware of the Central Plains!"
"The Central Plains has been in war for many years. After the war, I came to power. The people were in poverty, so they have always coveted the south. Moreover, Huainan is dilapidated and recovery is becoming increasingly difficult. Therefore, the Shu Kingdom is extremely attractive to the Central Plains, and
, the soldiers are weak and weak, so it is most suitable."
