Luo Zhang and Li Shimin were sitting opposite each other in the hot spring pool of Lishan Hot Spring.
Silks of mist surrounded the two of them, making both sides unable to see each other clearly.
However, Li Shimin's place was different from Luo Zhang's place. There were four or five maids beside him who were busy serving Li Shimin. On the other hand, Luo Zhang's place was the only one wiping himself with a bath towel.
This made Luo Zhang a little depressed, but who said he was the boss, he was just the younger brother.
In front of the boss, he has no qualifications to show off. Besides, being able to bathe with His Majesty the Emperor is something that many people dream of. If it is revealed, it will even be a big event to honor the ancestors.
Think about it, a group of friends are chatting together, and you are drinking and saying to everyone, "Oh, yesterday His Majesty insisted on asking me to go to the hot springs with him. I didn't want to go, but His Majesty gave me an order, and there was nothing I could do about it."
Lo and behold, the invisible pretense is just like that, and it suddenly shines brightly in front of friends.
Furthermore, when you are old, you are lying on a recliner to bask in the sun, with children all over your body. You look at the sky with a face full of memories, and say with a touch of melancholy: "I think of those days when His Majesty and I took a hot spring bath together, just like yesterday...
Look, he succeeded in showing off again, making himself look taller in front of the younger generation.
I don't know how long it took, but Luo Zhang only felt that it was a long time. He saw Li Shimin wave his hand and push away all the maids around him. Then he looked in the direction of Luo Zhang and said calmly: "Changsun Wuji explained yesterday. , those who assassinated him were all taken to the prison of the Secret Intelligence Service by me today. As for the shops of the Changsun family, I can give them to you, but not the business they control. Do you know what I mean? Bar?"
Hearing what Li Shimin said, Luo Zhang was shocked. He said that it was impossible for Li Shimin to come to him for no reason today. It turned out to be such a thing.
From what Li Shimin said, it seemed that he wanted to embezzle the business controlled by Changsun Wuji.
Luo Zhang thought for a moment and finally remembered what Changsun Wuji's biggest business was.
Smelting iron!
Or let’s talk about current steel smelting!
Obviously, Li Shimin didn't want Ye Gang to be in Luo Zhang's hands.
You know, no matter in ancient times or in later generations, some things cannot be controlled by the people.
The reason why Changsun Wuji is able to control is because he is Li Shimin's uncle and the biological brother of Queen Changsun.
Otherwise, without this relationship, how could Li Shimin be so confident in leaving the iron smelting to Changsun Wuji.
Unexpectedly, it was this uncle who actually rebelled against him. This was what Li Shimin was worried about, whether Luo Zhang would take that step as well.
You know, Luo Zhang is much stronger than Changsun Wuji. Not only is he young, but his martial arts skills are extremely high, and he also has unparalleled prestige in the military. Even Li Jing's current reputation is not as good as Luo Zhang's.
Not to mention anything else, the Royal Navy is now no longer under Li Shimin's control.
Although Li Shimin wanted to bring the Queen's Navy under his own control, he had no one who could command this navy.
He won over Luo Zhang's subordinates and promised high-ranking officials and generous salaries, but Li Shimin knew better that those under Luo Zhang were all promoted by Luo Zhang when they were still young. It was not easy to shake these people.
Marrying Luo Zhang, your biological daughter, is actually a layer of shackles to appease Luo Zhang's heart.
In an instant, Luo Zhang thought of all this.
Regarding Li Shimin's worries, Luo Zhang just smiled in his heart. If he really wanted to peek at the throne, to be honest, Li Shimin would never be his opponent.
Just because of the artillery, just because he developed the iron lump that is twice as powerful as the wooden lump, his strength is not comparable to that of today's Li Shimin.
Therefore, Li Shimin Cuncui thought too much, but no emperor thought too much.
Think about it when Li Shimin was old, how many people still followed him?
Many of them were secretly killed by him, or sent out to perform dangerous missions, and finally died in the hands of the enemy.
The reason for doing this is that Li Shimin felt that they were a threat, or that they were paving the way for future generations.
There is a saying that goes well: when the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden; when the cunning rabbit dies, the lackeys are cooked!
Once the world is at peace and there is no need for war, it will be time for those generals to receive their lunch boxes.
