    Chapter 94 Private Interview on WeChat

    Ji County, Youzhou.

    Li Shimin personally led an army of 300,000 people to conquer Goguryeo. Li Shimin went out with the vanguard and arrived in Jixian County, where he lived in the newly built governor's mansion of Li Zhen.

    It was at this time that Li Shimin got the news that Li Zhen personally led 5,000 soldiers on a cross-sea expedition to the hinterland of Goguryeo.

    Li Shimin couldn't help but feel in a good mood, thinking that although Li Zhen looked thinner, her temperament was really like his own back then.

    With only 5,000 men, he dared to cross the sea to conquer Goguryeo. He would never do this without the courage.

    "It's just that it's a bit risky to do this. I don't know what Li Zhen's situation is now.

    At this moment, Li Shimin received the second news that the Goguryeo army had withdrawn. Cheng Yaojin and Li Ruyi were leading their troops to attack, preparing to attack Li Zhen from both inside and outside to fight Goguryeo.

    Li Shimin was very pleased to hear the news.

    I still underestimated Li Zhen. I didn't expect that with only 20,000 government soldiers and 30,000 to 40,000 recruited troops, he could compete with the 600,000 Goguryeo army and even force the Goguryeo army back. With such military talent,  There are really few people who can match it.

    If the Tang Dynasty falls into the hands of Li Zhen, the Tang Dynasty will definitely expand its territory and build a huge empire.

    When Changsun Wuji saw Li Shimin's appearance, he was obviously very satisfied with Li Zhen. Changsun Wuji said quickly: "Your Majesty, as a prince and the governor of the seven northeastern states, it seems too reckless for Li Zhen to take risks alone and enter the hinterland of Goguryeo.  .¡±

    Li Shimin did not answer. His many years of political experience made him extremely experienced in handling government affairs. Li Shimin felt that the most important thing for an emperor was to see through people's hearts and know how to employ them. Therefore, when Changsun Wuji said this, Li Shimin already understood his intention.  intention.

    It seems that Changsun Wuji is still very hostile to Li Zhen. This fight for the right to inherit the throne really makes him very upset.

    Li Shimin disagreed with Changsun Wuji's words. When he was the king of Qin, he led the Tang army to continuously go out and win one victory after another. This laid the foundation of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, in Li Shimin's view, the prince's expedition was  This is a continuation of a fine tradition. Not only should it not be condemned, but it should be encouraged.

    It¡¯s just that Changsun Wuji is an important minister under him, so it¡¯s not easy to refute him face to face. At that moment, Li Shimin said: "We should wait for the news about Cheng Yaojin."

    Changsun Wuji frowned and said, "Your Majesty, the King of Yue must be punished!"

    "Why?" Li Shimin said in surprise.

    Changsun Wuji said in a cold voice: "Youzhou is a bitter cold place, but Li Zhen, the king of Yue, is building a lot of construction here. Seeing how luxurious his governor is, this is a misuse of people's power and does not take into account the suffering of the people. There must be complaints among the people. Li Zhen is like this  , how can we not be punished?"

    Li Shimin frowned and said to himself that this was a matter of fact. The Yue Prince's Palace was indeed a bit bigger and more extravagant. The Tang Dynasty was now full of waste and waiting for development. How could it carry out such a large-scale construction project?

    Thinking of this, Li Shimin felt a little unhappy, but after all, Li Shimin was an emperor through the ages and a rare wise king. Naturally, he would not listen to partial beliefs. He also wanted to listen to the opinions of the people.

    So, Li Shimin took Changsun Wuji and Yuchi Jingde for a private visit, pretending to be merchants, and went to the streets of Jixian County and entered a tavern.

    Li Shimin was sitting there drinking, and threw the waiter a couple of cents as a reward.

    Unexpectedly, the waiter in the shop didn't express his gratitude, and he didn't even go to collect the reward given by Li Shimin.

    Li Shimin was puzzled and asked: "Xiaoer, why don't you want to reward me with money?"

    The waiter said: "Although our Youzhou was originally a bitter and cold place, since His Highness the King of Yue came, there is plenty of food and no one picks things up on the road. Everyone is well fed and clothed warmly. As long as you do your job well,  You can have enough to eat and support your family, but asking for this reward is useless."

    When Li Shimin heard this, he felt very comfortable and asked, "How is the popularity of the King of Yue in Youzhou?"

    When the waiter in the shop heard Li Shimin talking about the King of Yue, his eyes immediately lit up and he said: "His Royal Highness the King of Yue is a very important person. He is a god descending to earth. He can call the wind and rain, cause thunder and spit fire. In our Youzhou, the King of Yue is a god!"

    "Oh? I heard that the King of Yue abused his people's power and made people angry." Li Shimin said.

    "Who is talking nonsense? If we Youzhou people hear it, we will have to skin him!"

    Changsun Wuji's face turned red after hearing these words, and he was about to have a fit, but Li Shimin winked, and Changsun Wuji had to swallow his words.

    "We in Youzhou were originallyIt is a bitter and cold place, and life is very tight. We don't even have enough food to eat, and we are robbed by foreign tribes from time to time.  "

    "But since His Highness the King of Yue came, he drove away the foreigners, opened markets for mutual benefit, and formed caravans. The lives of our people have become better and better. Go out and ask, in the seven northeastern states of the entire Tang Dynasty, who has said anything about the King of Yue?"  not good?"

    "Then how come his mansion is so luxurious? Don't you know that the Tang Dynasty is in dire straits right now? How can we abuse people's power?" Changsun Wuji couldn't bear it anymore and said.

    "The capital of the Governor's House in Yue Wu was built with the King of Yue's own private property. No one was plundered from the people, and no government treasury was used. People use their own money to build houses for themselves. What's wrong with you?  ? You people, the King of Yue is such a good person, but you say bad things about him!"

    "What? Someone said something bad about the King of Yue?"

    People in the tavern stood up and glared at Li Shimin and others, and some even shouted directly: "Kick them out! We Youzhou people don't welcome you!"

    In this way, Li Shimin and the other three were kicked out of the tavern by the common people.

    Changsun Wuji¡¯s face turned blue and white. Everything he saw today really slapped him in the face, and Changsun Wuji also became more determined in his thoughts.

    "Li Zhen must not be allowed to become the prince. Li Zhen's ability is too strong. If he really becomes the prince, then he will not be able to check and balance him. By then, I am afraid that he will not have any power at all.

    For the future of himself and the Changsun family, he must get rid of the thorn in Li Zhen¡¯s side.

    Li Shimin was kicked out but he didn't take it seriously. The common people kicked out the emperor. I'm afraid he was the first to receive such treatment in this thousand years.

    And seeing Changsun Wuji being slapped in the face, Li Shimin also felt a little funny, thinking that Changsun Wuji was too strong and it would be a good thing to let him suffer some setbacks.

    Yuchi Jingde on the side looked like he was watching the fun and gloating about others' misfortune.

    Seeing Changsun Wuji deflated, I felt very happy in my heart.  Since the Tang Dynasty, civil servants such as Changsun Wuji and military generals such as Yuchi Jingde have often been estranged and looked down upon each other. Especially this time, because Li Zhen was suppressing the rebellion and winning battles outside the wall, these generals admired Li Zhen very much.  .

    Compared with the cowardly Li Zhi who was supported by civilian officials, the military generals were more inclined to support the tough Li Zhen as the crown prince, so seeing Changsun Wuji defeated, Yuchi Jingde was very happy and almost laughed out loud.

    "Report!"

    As soon as I returned to the palace, a herald came running from a distance (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
