"Your Majesty, the General Police Department has captured everyone in the Silla envoy's garrison!"

In the Summer Palace, Li Zhong hesitated for a moment, and immediately reported the information collected by the Baiqisi to Li Shimin.

Although the Silla people were not human in Li Zhong's eyes, Li Shimin still attached great importance to these envoys of the vassal states.

Now that the General Police Department has directly taken the blame, he naturally has to come over and report the situation.

"That Jin Shengqiang offended Kuan'er?"

Li Shimin's first reaction was that Jin Shengqiang offended Li Kuan, otherwise Ma Zhou would not have been so cruel and directly took the blame.

"Based on what my subordinates learned, the people from the General Police Department probably suspected that the Silla envoy was related to the potato theft case in Guanshishan Academy, so they were asked to the General Police Department for interrogation."

Guanshishan Academy’s potato theft case did not cause any special trouble in Chang'an City, but the noble officials basically heard of this news.

As the leader of the Hundred Riding Division, Li Zhong naturally has his own information channel. With a little analysis, he can guess the matter.

"The Silla people went to Guanshishan Academy to steal potatoes? Is there any evidence?"

Li Shimin's face was not good either.

He naturally knew how important potatoes were to the Tang Dynasty.

Although the little potatoes in Shishan Academy were not different in the Tang Dynasty, the nature behind this matter was very different.

The people of Silla have been doing all kinds of small moves in the past two years, and Li Shimin has not heard of anything.

But that Kim Seung-man seemed to be quite well-behaved, so Li Shimin never took it too seriously.

But now it seems that the Silla people are really short of lessons.

"The police station arrested the Silla people, and there is some evidence, but the specific situation will be known only after Ma Zhou and Di Renjie come to report it."

"I understand! You don't have to worry about this for now, let's see what will happen later!"

...

"Your Majesty, this is the case! These Silla people are really ambitions. Not only do they want us to pay attention to potatoes, but they have also secretly brought back all the related technologies of silk. It is said that they have also invested a lot of money to hire more than a dozen craftsmen to return to Silla. It is estimated that the first batch of silk from Silla people will be released this year.

In addition, Na Jin Shengqiang tried to obtain the technology of various cotton workshops through various means and wanted to grow cotton in Shira.

The potatoes we stolen have been searched in a yard outside the city, and the books and experimental records lost by Guanshishan Academy Agricultural College have also been retrieved."

Ma Zhou reported to Li Kuan on Monday and May 10.

"The Silla people are thief-hearted! Goguryeo was suppressing them before, so on the peninsula, the Silla people have always been closer to the Central Plains dynasty in order to use the power of the Central Plains dynasty to attack Goguryeo. And they are quietly developing behind their backs and silently enjoying the fruits of victory.

Now they set their minds on silk and cotton cloth, and even wanted to get involved in iron smelting techniques, so they were obviously unwilling to be content with the status quo. Since that is the case, we must teach them a lesson and let them know that some things that the Tang Dynasty did not say to him, and that was not his.

If you stretch out your hands randomly, something will happen! Jin Shengqiang and his group don’t have to keep them. Just sentence them to exile in Lingnan, and then throw him into the sea to feed the sharks. As for the people below, let them go to Nanyang to shine and heat."

Li Kuan has never had a good impression of Silla people.

In history, they took advantage of the opportunity of the Tang Dynasty to quickly seize the fruits of victory after the demise of Goguryeo and finally unify the peninsula.

After that, I began to be honest and thought about taking back the territory of Goguryeo in Liaodong.

Haha, these people are ungrateful wolves, and they are not well-equipped.

Only every few times can they beat them up to get a new understanding of the world.

"Prince, if this is the case, it would be equivalent to taking the power of Silla in Chang'an City. Will it not be a big impact? People from other foreign countries may have concerns when they see it."

Ma Zhou is still political, afraid that Li Kuan would be impulsive and not consider it so fully, so he gave a reminder.

"Ma Zhou, you have to figure out that these foreign countries are willing to recognize the Tang Dynasty as the sect leader, not because we are kind, nor because our education is very successful, but because the Tang Dynasty's invincible soldiers! It was these soldiers who made many sacrifices on the frontier that brought the stable life of the people of the Central Plains;

It was these soldiers who fought bravely on the frontier that made the Hu people and barbarians dare not offend our Tang Dynasty easily; it was these soldiers who continued to put pressure on them that these foreign countries would honestly pay tribute.

One day the strength of the Tang Dynasty declined, or a stronger country defeated the Tang Dynasty, these foreign countries will jump out and bite the Tang Dynasty as soon as possible."

In Li Kuan's eyes, only the people of the Tang Dynasty needed him to protect him.

If you take the initiative to enter the Tang Dynasty for the people of other foreign countries, it will be welcome.

But if you have been living where you are, you will be embarrassed. You are all targets of attack.

"Master is right! Today we took away everyone from the Silla envoy's garrison. Many envoys from other vassal states next to us saw it, but no one dared to stand up and say a word!

This is because our Tang Dynasty had countless heroic soldiers, countless sailors who were brave enough to take risks, countless hard-working craftsmen, and countless farmers who were not afraid of hard work.

It is because of them that the Tang Dynasty is today. These Silla people rely on stealing like stealing our fruits of victory, and relying on stealing to learn our advanced technology.

At that time, they might want to sell the products they have learned to other places and compete with us for the market. Such things are absolutely intolerable.

Master, I even think that this time we should not only severely punish the Silla people, but also take this opportunity to attack other foreign countries and make them not to attack the various workshops of our Tang Dynasty in private, otherwise they will bear the consequences!"

Di Renjie is now in his youth and energy, and he can't stand a grain of sand in his eyes.

"Huiying said it well. Taking this opportunity, we must shock those vassal states, make them be more honest in Chang'an City, eat, drink and have fun, and don't always cause trouble for yourself.

At the same time, the Maritime Governor's Office can also issue a ban. All patents registered in the Tang Dynasty Royal Patent Office have not been approved by the Maritime Governor's Office, and the relevant technologies cannot be transmitted abroad, otherwise they will be dealt with strictly.

At the same time, all crops such as potatoes, peppers, cotton, mulberry trees, etc., which are unique to our Tang Dynasty, need to be approved by the Maritime Governor's Office before going to sea, otherwise it is an illegal act.

These requirements must be understood by all the maritime merchants and envoys of foreign countries. Once we find that someone has violated the ban, even if the person is no longer in the Tang Dynasty, we will catch them back and deal with it!"

Li Kuan felt that the Tang Dynasty's current technology was completely ahead of neighboring countries for several eras. If there were no restrictions, soon, Japan, Silla, Baekje and other countries would come to the Tang Dynasty to steal advanced technology.

This is not the scene that Li Kuan hopes to see.

"Prince, I will immediately communicate with the people from the Maritime Governor's Office and the Tang Dynasty Royal Patent Office, and then make this ban as soon as possible. However, judging from the confessions of the Silla people, they have started to plant mulberry trees in Jincheng, which shows that they have initially mastered the silk making skills. What should we do?"

Ma Zhou was also very excited after hearing Li Kuan's words.

"Hmph, without our permission, even if the food you ate was eaten, you have to spit it out for me! Xuanwu arranged for the people from the Intelligence Investigation Bureau to do things, and all the mulberry trees planted in Jincheng were burned for me. There is one related craftsmen, and there is no need to live in this world. Whether it is Tang people or Silla people, they are willing to go to Jincheng to serve Silla people, so they have to be responsible for their own fate!"

Li Kuan made up his mind and prepared to completely destroy the Newara silk industry, which had not yet officially started.

For the Tang Dynasty, silk and porcelain were the main products for export even after a few hundred years.

Once these two specialty products are leaked, the impact will be unprecedented.
