Li Chengcheng's question gave the water thieves in front of them a chance to survive. They hurriedly looked at Li Chengcheng and started talking.
"General Rong Zhen, we don't know where our boss came from. He appeared alone in our village and called us to come to the boat on the river to get some other money. We were so fascinated that we followed him. , please spare your life, general, we won’t dare to do it again!”
Just as the robbers were talking like this, Li Chengcheng looked at them and snorted coldly.
"Since you have such thoughts, I will let you go this time. If someone comes to your village again and calls on you to come to this river to do illegal activities, what will you do?"
When Li Chengcheng said this, these people hurriedly talked here.
"General, spare your life, we don't dare to do it now, and we won't dare to do it again in the future."
But after they said they would never dare to do it again, Li Chengcheng sighed.
These people's hearts tightened instantly.
"General, spare your life, general, spare your life, we really don't dare to do anything else."
Just as they were talking like this, Li Chengcheng looked at them and started talking directly.
"You have to remember that I can let you go this time. If this is really the first time you have behaved like this, wait until tomorrow when the ship docks and hand it over to the county government, how to deal with it, how to deal with it, be a good person in the future, and wait until we meet again In such a situation, there is no need to say that directly escorting the person who deceived you to report to the county government is much more effective than your life of licking blood with a knife?"
Li Chengcheng's suggestion made the people in front of him feel happy.
"Yes, yes. What the general said is true. We know it. We will definitely serve the Tang Dynasty well in the future. If someone really goes to our village to do such a thing again, there is nothing to say. We will rush to the rescue as soon as possible. Go forward and seize all these misbehaviors and hand them over to the general."
Li Chengcheng nodded with satisfaction, and then walked toward the rear, while a leader of the Tiance Guard who was following him hurriedly stepped forward.
"General, did you really let them go?"
Li Chengcheng nodded, "Yes, since they said it was the first time, let's wait until the next stop and hand it over to the county government officials on the shore. We still have our tasks."
Li Chengcheng had no idea that his unintentional mistake had helped Li Chengqian a lot. When he found out, he felt that he was worthy of being Li Chengqian's future in-law, and he could do everything properly in advance.
In a gold and silver mining camp in Dongzhou, Xue Li opened the tent door and walked out under the morning sun. Looking at the men of the Tang Dynasty who had gathered there for training, Xue Li smiled with satisfaction.
Farther away, those Japanese servants now also had the identity of Tang Jun. They also got up according to the Tang Jun's horn. However, they did not have the energy to train there like the Tang Jun. Instead, they quickly greeted their relatives and friends. A few friends went to urge those who were hostile to them to get up quickly and take their tools to mine gold and silver.
Behind these gold and silver mining teams, there was a pair of people, but they did not act like these teams who were being urged. Instead, they got up early, took their tools, and greeted friends and relatives toward the gold and silver mining companies. Rushing to the work area, these are Japanese people recruited who are going to mine gold and silver in exchange for part of the money.
Looking at these original Japanese people, Xue Li couldn't help but smile. It was because they had forgotten their original country and provided them with sufficient labor for their continuous gold and silver mining. Thinking about it, happy.
But not long after Xue Li was happy, another thought flashed through his mind. There must be a certain amount of gold and silver. Could it be that after mining the mountain in front of him, he could still produce gold and silver out of thin air?
Xue Li was also a little worried. Now that a lot of gold and silver had been mined and transported back to the Tang Dynasty, they showed their value in the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin did a lot of good things with gold and silver, and the ships traveling between them were for Xue Li and the others. Brought back a lot of information.
At this time when gold and silver are needed, what should we do if our own gold and silver are completely developed?
Xue Li, who was originally happy, did not expect to be powerless after the gold and silver were developed, so he couldn't help but sigh.
The Japanese country did not have many things worthy of the Tang Dynasty. Apart from gold and silver, the Tang Dynasty lacked the food it produced, and the Tang Dynasty also had aquatic products in the sea.
Not to mention anything else, there are all kinds of lucky fish that roam the sea. Seeing that their size has exceeded the size of the original Japanese ships, what else can there be?
After Xue Li thought about it, he found that there was nothing Li Tang needed in the Japanese country, except gold and silver.
Then he made up his mind.
Then all the gold and silver must be mined, and not even a trace can be left. After the gold and silver are mined, under the leadership of the wise Shenwu of the Tang Dynasty, Dongzhou will definitely undergo earth-shaking changes, right? Maybe by that time Dongzhou will be able to produce what Datang needs.
】
Xue Li thought so and became even more determined to send all the money back to Datang no matter what.
But when he thought of the Tang Dynasty, Xue Li looked to the west at the entrance of the camp and thought of his wife.
"Yue'er, I wonder how you are doing now?"
The message sender is always a bit evasive.
Something seems wrong.
Avoid the important and take the easy, that's how it should be.
Xue Li still doesn't know that his Yue'er has given birth to a daughter for him. If Xue Li knew, he wouldn't necessarily be happy or behave. But what he doesn't know is that his precious daughter is now Someone has already targeted him.
The East Palace near Chang'an Imperial City.
The mass wedding was about to take place. Li Chengqian got up early and went to see his son and daughter. His daughter already had an in-law, who was the grandson of Li Daoliang, the king of Luzhou County.
Just when Li Chengqian was thinking about finding another future wife for his son, whether it was Princess Qin, the last crown princess or the queen, Hou Xiaomei looked at Li Chengqian who came to comfort her child with a bit of resentment. .
"Why did you marry off my daughter at such a young age?"
Li Chengqian felt a little embarrassed at this moment and scratched his head.
"Although I have married off my daughter, I can find another daughter-in-law for our son."
"Huh? Who are you looking for?"
Hou Xiaomei couldn't wait to ask here, "Is there a suitable, newborn girl baby? It's too big, we can't take care of our precious son, and it's too young, we can't let our son go." It’s not appropriate to treat him like a child.”
Hou Xiaomei suddenly reduced the number of people, so that he could only find children of the same age as his precious son, the current King Qin of the Tang Dynasty.
At this time, Li Chengqian was racking his brains here. Is there anyone he knows whose children are the same age as his King Qin?
Just when Li Chengqian was thinking about this, suddenly an official came to report outside the door.
"Report! Your Majesty, Your Majesty has arranged for eunuchs to come and convey your wishes."
"What? What's the matter with coming here so early to deliver the message? Let him in quickly!"
After Li Chengqian spoke, the eunuch outside the door quickly came in and saluted in front of Li Chengqian.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, your Majesty has ordered that when His Majesty is managing the river, he will also repair the roads along the way with cement. He also gives His Majesty the will to do things expediently." "Okay!"
Li Chengqian didn't feel that there were more types on his shoulders at all, but instead talked happily.
"As long as our father needs us, we will do what he asks us to do, and we will definitely do it properly and beautifully."
But just after the eunuch finished speaking, he handed Li Chengqian a simple decree issued by Li Shimin and written by Changsun Wuji.
Li Chengqian happily took it and took a look at it before asking the eunuch in front of him.
"Did Father give any other orders?"
"some."
At this moment, Li Chengqian felt a little uneasy. Could it be that he was giving orders to my brothers to do the same thing? But when he was uneasy before the mileage, the eunuch started talking.
"His Majesty also issued a decree to reward the champion. Because of his achievements in cement, he was rewarded with a hundred catties of gold and a series of other good treasures."
After the eunuch said this, Li Chengqian became happy.
"I knew that my father must have forgotten this thing. Otherwise, how could he erase all the rewards for truly meritorious officials?"
Li Chengqian just muttered this, but suddenly he reacted.
"No, my master seems to have a newborn niece who is the same age as my Prince Qin's son!"
In an instant, Li Chengqian smiled happily, took out a rare piece of gold, and rewarded the eunuch in front of him.
Let the eunuch in front of you be grateful.
"His Royal Highness is kind and virtuous."
After sending the eunuch in front of him away, Li Chengqian looked at the eunuch who had walked away, quickly calmed down, turned around and rushed towards the room where Hou Xiaomei was.
"That's great. The unexpected gain this time is not only knowing that Master's achievements have not been left behind, but also finding a child of the same age for my future child, which will definitely satisfy Xiaomei Hou."
With this in mind, Li Chengqian came to where Hou Xiaomei was and told her his plan.
Hou Xiaomei, who was originally worried that her daughter had been arranged by Li Chengqian to marry her and that her son had not yet found a wife, suddenly heard Li Chengqian's opinion and her eyes lit up.
"You did something good this time!"
As soon as Hou Xiaomei finished speaking, Li Chengqian was scratching his head proudly.
"No, don't look at who came up with it. How can the husband's idea be any worse? And this is Master's sister, Master's biological niece."
After Li Chengqian said this, Hou Xiaomei's eyes lit up.
"Yes! This is my uncle's niece. Speaking of which, this is really a close relationship. My father is a general and my uncle is also a general.
Although my uncle Xue Li is not a general yet, he is also my father's junior brother, the junior brother of the champion, not to mention the brother-in-law of the champion. This kiss is really appropriate. I agree, no matter what, you will You have to get this done for me.
Let's make sure that no one can rob our daughter-in-law. If someone robs our daughter-in-law, I won't let you go. "
Hou Xiaomei used to be childhood sweethearts with Li Chengqian, but now she started to get angry because of the daughter-in-law's problem, and Li Chengqian stood at attention in an instant.
"Don't worry, don't worry! I will make sure this marriage is discussed properly. If it doesn't work, we will make a decree. Wouldn't it be more appropriate if we make this decree?"
Li Chengqian was proud there. He also had the King of Heaven, Li Shimin, as his father. If he felt it was inappropriate, just ask him to issue a decree. Wouldn't it be appropriate?
Do Xu Yunyan and Xue Li dare not obey Li Shimin's orders?
