Shanghai County, Buckingham Palace.
Since it was getting late, Zhu Yuanzhang planned to rest here with Queen Ma and Zhu Biao for a night.
Xu Da and Lan Yu were also called to the inn from the military base by Zhu Yuanzhang.
At this moment, five people were in the room, discussing.
"Xu Da, tell us, does Li Jin have any intentions of rebellion?"
This was Zhu Yuanzhang's biggest problem after the military parade.
As for the power of the fire gun, Zhu Yuanzhang could barely accept it.
So today in the artillery base, Li Jin's artillery demonstration completely shocked Zhu Yuanzhang's three views.
Even now, Zhu Yuanzhang can't believe that there are such powerful weapons in this world.
In previous wars, both sides carried swords, guns, swords and halberds, with white knives going in and red knives coming out.
Face to face, with real swords and guns.
Now that Li Jin was tossing him about this, Zhu Yuanzhang even felt that the previous wars were really boring.
Not only was it boring, but under Li Jin's firepower, Zhu Yuanzhang could not imagine that any troops could brave such fierce artillery to rush in front of Li Jin's army.
What these people will face will be a massacre, a massacre that is inhumane and without the ability to fight back.
Even Zhu Yuanzhang was not confident that he could defeat Li Jin in this situation.
So he had to know whether Li Jin had any objections.
Once Li Jin shows signs of this, he must take action in advance to strangle Li Jin in the cradle.
When Xu Da heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, he suddenly fell into deep thought.
Queen Ma and Zhu Biao beside them couldn't help but feel excited at this moment.
To them, Li Jin was considered a talent, and a great talent at that.
Since meeting Li Jin, Queen Ma has made a lot of money. Although Queen Ma's money is now invested in the shipyard, it is still real silver.
Zhu Biao also had a very good impression of Li Jin. Li Jin always had some unbridled ideas and often produced some unexpected results, which surprised people.
But Zhu Biao saw Zhu Yuanzhang's expression and knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was really serious this time.
Zhu Biao could also understand that with such a powerful army, if Li Jin really had any objections, it would really be a disaster for Ming Dynasty.
Although he said this, Zhu Biao did not want Li Jin to die. After all, if a person with such talent died in such an unknown way, Zhu Biao would only feel regretful.
Everyone was waiting for Xu Da's answer, but Xu Da thought for a while, sighed, and said:
"I don't know about the superior position. I can't see through Li Jin's whole person, and I don't know if he has any objections."
This sentence directly broke the silence in the room. Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly released the murderous intention in his body and said word by word:
"In that case, Li Jin shouldn't blame us."
Zhu Yuanzhang's words were full of murderous intent. It seemed that Zhu Yuanzhang was determined to kill Li Jin.
In Zhu Yuanzhang's view, Li Jin's city was so deep that even Xu Da could not see through his mind. This showed that Li Jin was not as simple as he usually appeared.
All this is probably Li Jin's appearance to confuse himself.
In this case, it is only right to kill him yourself.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang planned to directly ask the Jin Yiwei to take action, arrest Li Jin, and ask Qiu Hou to kill him.
Zhu Biao and Queen Ma wanted to speak and beg for mercy on Li Jin's behalf, but seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's determined expression, they knew it was useless to beg for mercy this time.
"Come on, don't rush."
But Xu Da stopped Zhu Yuanzhang and continued:
"Listen to what I have to say first, and then make a decision."
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were puzzled. Didn't he finish speaking just now? Why are you still talking?
Out of trust in Xu Da, Zhu Yuanzhang slowly sat down again and said calmly:
"explain!"
"My younger brother said that he can't see through Li Jin because his behavior is weird."
"It stands to reason that although the Japanese pirates are hateful, they have no enmity with Li Jin. But for some reason, Li Jin's behavior gave me the feeling...feeling..."
Xu Da had confusion on his face. Thinking of Li Jin's performance, he didn't know how to describe it.
"Revenge for killing my father."
Lan Yu said from the side.
"Yes, it is simply more painful and deeper than the hatred of killing my father."
"Li Jin has been staying there since the Longjiang Bao Shipyard was built, and has almost never returned to his mansion."
"Even the office is at Longjiang Bao Shipyard. I forget about food and sleep, as if I can't wait to build the ship immediately."
"According to the Bao Shipyard's account at the time, Li Jin seemed to be crazy at the time and kept talking about killing these short guys."
Xu Da thought of his previous conversation with the old boatman. The old boatman was beside Li Jin at the time.
"According to my guess, the short guys in Li's mouth are those from Japan."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked even more confused and asked:
"Isn't this a good thing? Why do you say you can't see through him?"
"As far as I know, Li Jin is from Fengyang and has never lived by the sea."
Xu Daze said:
"How could he have such a big grudge against Japan?"
"If I hadn't known Li Jin's details, I would have thought that Li Jin had a grudge against the Japanese pirates for killing his father and seizing his wife."
"Come on, you've seen the power of artillery."
"When I first saw it, I told Li Jin that this kind of firearm was too lethal and would harm the world."
"But do you know how Li Jin answered?"
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head.
"Li Jin said that against those beasts on the Japanese island, such powerful artillery is nothing."
"He will also develop more powerful artillery in the future to deal with those people on the Japanese island."
"He will not stop unless he knows that the people there will be completely conquered or that race will be completely exterminated."
Xu Da couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body when he thought of Li Jin's sinister smile.
"Sir, what do you think his mentality is?"
"Even if the Japanese islands are destroyed in the future, it will be most beneficial to the superior. It is the superior's achievement of opening up the territory. What does it have to do with him being a county magistrate?"
"This kind of thing that harms others without benefiting oneself, I really can't understand. Why on earth would Li Jin do this?"
"Li Jin even invested millions of taels of silver into it."
"Everything is unreasonable. I don't understand. I sometimes even wonder if Li Jin is pretending to be crazy and acting like a fool."
"On the surface, he hates Japanese islands and looks like he wants to exterminate Japanese pirates. But in fact, he is secretly gathering strength and wants to rebel?"
"But after the superior came today, Li Jin had no intention of hiding anything. He showed the most powerful artillery in front of the superior in a carefree way."
"If he really has the idea of rebellion, shouldn't he try hard to hide his strength? How could he be so stupid and expose all his cards?"
"But I don't dare to speak nonsense. I just tell the superiors everything I know and let the superiors make their own judgments."
After Xu Da finished speaking, he lowered his head and said nothing.
Zhu Yuanzhang was sitting on a chair, tapping his index finger on the table, and he was deep in thought.
