"Brother Lu, tell me the truth. Is this what made the noise in your Lujiazhuang yesterday?" Li Daozong, who was sitting opposite Lu Chen, looked at Lu Chen curiously and asked.
"To be honest with you, the prince, it is indeed this thing. However, this thing is still in the experimental stage. Naturally, it cannot be presented to the imperial court. When the actual test is successful and it can be used stably, this thing will naturally be handed over to the imperial court for use!" Lu Chen picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine, looked at Li Daozong and said.
After Lu Chen entered the palace, Li Daozong arranged a banquet. As for the four commanders Beiwei Weihe and Su Dingfang, they also arranged meals and accommodation. After all, the Rencheng palace was still very big, with several people. Ten people and dozens of horses are nothing.
After all, whether it is the current homemade grenade or the flintlock gun, it is all for the Tang Dynasty to use. However, Lu Chen cannot take it out during this period of time because there will be "Xuanwumen Incident" later. Just wait, if this thing falls into the hands of the imperial court now, then the Xuanwu Sect may really have more dead people than recorded in history.
Moreover, the existence of this kind of national weapon is for the purpose of conquering foreign enemies. If it is used internally, even if the opponent is a member of a noble family, Lu Chen cannot bear it. Of course, this also depends on whether those noble families are human beings or ghosts.
"What a pity!" Li Daozong said with some regret, then picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
"What? Is something wrong?" Looking at Li Daozong's appearance, Lu Chen looked at Li Daozong and asked in confusion.
"After the New Year, I'm afraid I will have to return to Lingzhou!" Li Daozong shook his head and sighed helplessly.
"Then Master Liang is acting like a monster again?" Lu Chen looked at Li Daozong and asked guessing.
"Brother Lu really sits at home and knows everything about the world!" Hearing Lu Chen's words, Li Daozong's body trembled, and then he looked at Lu Chen with admiration and said, "Brother Lu, I think you and that Zhuge Wolong is also comparable!"
"My lord, you are exaggerating! How dare I compare myself to Zhuge Wolong!" Lu Chen quickly waved his hand and said humbly.
Lu Chen's family knew about his family affairs. He could have expected that Li Daozong would return to Lingzhou only because it was recorded in the history books that after the rebellion of Nafu Gong'er was put down in the new year, the entire Tang Dynasty But there are no separatist forces anymore, the only one is Master Liang.
After Liang Shidu felt the crisis, he got together with Jieli Khan. In the seventh year of Wude, Fugong's rebellion was suppressed. In the eighth year of Wude, Li Daozong led his army to fight against Liang Shidu in Lingzhou. It's time for Jieli Khan's Turkic coalition.
Compared with Zhuge Wolong, don't be ridiculous, what kind of person is Zhuge Wolong, who wrote "Execution Model", "Book of Commandments" and so on. He invented the wooden cow and flowing horse, the Kongming lantern, etc., and modified the repeating crossbow, called the Zhuge repeating crossbow, which can fire ten arrows with one crossbow.
The song "Longzhong Dui" describes all the great men and women in the world without even leaving the house. That life of "devoting oneself to death" is the motto of many future generations!
Compare Lu Chen with Zhuge Wolong? Lu Chen himself felt that he was not worthy.
"Although it's not bad, it's not far!" Li Daozong looked at Lu Chen's humble face and said with a smile, "But, Brother Lu, how did you expect that Master Liang would do something?" Li Daozong was still a little curious. Looking at Lu Chen, he asked.
"My lord, you are a fan of the authorities!" Lu Chen did not immediately answer Li Daozong's question, but said to Li Daozong with a smile.
"What do you mean by this?" When Lu Chen said this, Li Daozong suddenly didn't understand what Lu Chen meant, and looked at Lu Chen in confusion.
"Let's talk about the simplest thing. Did Du Fuwei come to Chang'an voluntarily?" Lu Chen played with the wine glass in his hand and asked with a smile on Li Daozong's lips.
"Didn't he come here voluntarily?" When Lu Chen asked, Li Daozong replied with some uncertainty.
"If you ask Du Fuwei face to face, he will definitely say that he came voluntarily, and His Majesty also gave him such a big reward. However, in fact, I dare to say that if His Majesty said, 'Du Fuwei, I see You are very loyal, you can go back to your fiefdom.' Without saying a word, Du Fuwei could bring his whole family back to Danyang the next day, do you believe it?" Lu Chen said to Li Daozong with a smile.
"Impossible! Judging from Du Fuwei's power at this time, this person has even higher power and status than me. How can he easily give up these things and return to Danyang?" Li Daozong still looked at Lu Chen in disbelief.
"My lord, you are wrong! Even if he seems to have these powers and status at this time, does anyone in Chang'an care about him? In the end, he is just a king with a different surname, and you, the Li family royal family, will not treat him well. Those aristocratic families will not treat him well. In fact, he is just surviving in the cracks at this time, with no power and position to use, not to mention that His Majesty has sent five hundred guards..." Lu Chen said There is no further talk at this point. With Li Daozong's mind, is it possible that he can't understand what's going on here? Otherwise, he should stop being a prince and don't go back to Lingzhou. If he goes back, he will be harmed by Master Liang and Jieli Khan.
"I understand!" After hearing this, Li Daozong nodded and understood the stakes.
"Back in Danyang, he is the Tu Emperor. Here, in the final analysis, he is just an unpopular prince of the opposite sex!" Lu Chen chuckled and put down the wine glass in his hand.
"Now in the Tang Dynasty, the only hidden danger is the fiefdom of Du Fuwei. Today, I will tell the prince that the Danyang territory may not be peaceful now. The prince can give your Majesty a private message and ask your Majesty to pay attention to Danyang. !" Lu Chen glanced around at the side hall, and after confirming that he and Li Daozong were the only two people in the side hall, he lowered his voice and solemnly reminded Li Daozong.
"Really?" Regarding Lu Chen's words, although Li Daozong couldn't talk enough to say what he said, Lu Chen had never broken his promise so far. Basically, what Lu Chen said would come true, but Li Daozong was still habitual I have to ask back.
"I don't dare to say that I'm absolutely sure. I can't be wrong 80% of the time!" Lu Chen nodded slightly and said, "Your Majesty, think about it, a deputy who has been with you for many years and the person in charge suddenly leaves, and this deputy will replace the person in charge. The person in charge is doing the things in charge, but even though he is doing the things of the person in charge, there is no corresponding reward. After a long time, will he have second thoughts?" Lu Chen took a mouthful of mutton and put it in Put it in your mouth, eat it, and analyze it with Li Daozong.
"You mean Du Fuwei's deputy..." When Lu Chen said this, Li Daozong also woke up, because this kind of thing has happened before, not to mention that Du Fuwei and his son have now completely settled in Chang'an, and Du Fuwei's deputy has full authority over the affairs of Du Fuwei's fiefdom, so the situation Lu Chen mentioned is very likely to happen.
"Fu Gonger!" Lu Chen reminded Li Daozong, but after Lu Chen reminded Li Daozong, he stopped talking about it and continued to pour and drink leisurely, leaving Li Daozong frowning in thought.
"Then I must report this matter to His Majesty!" Li Daozong said as he prepared to stand up.
"My lord, you are too impatient!" Seeing Li Daozong's hurried look, he directly stopped Li Daozhong, "What time has it been? Are you going to risk your life if you go to break into the palace gate now?" Lu Chen Li Daozong was reminded.
"But this matter is really too big! After all, Du Fuwei's fiefdom is very important!" Li Daozong looked at Lu Chen and said with some sadness.
"This hasn't happened yet!" Lu Chen stood up and walked over, smiling and pushing Li Daozong down on the chair. "Besides, even if that guy really wants to rebel, it won't be now. As far as I know, that fiefdom The military and political management are separated, so if Fu Gonger is really rebellious, he will have to get the military power. The military power is in the hands of Du Fuwei's adopted son Wang Xiongdan!" Lu Chen said as he returned to his He took a sip of wine and said.
"Actually, when I talk about this matter, I'm just comparing it with Master Liang!" Lu Chen put down his wine glass and continued, "Actually, whether this Fugong is rebelling or not, he can't make big waves. After all, he is in the big leagues. In the Tang Dynasty, now that the Tang Dynasty is getting better and better, how many people are willing to follow Fugong Er in rebellion? His rebellion is just because he does not want to live under others for a long time and intends to establish himself as king! But can his people stop the Tang Dynasty army? "At this point, Lu Chen smiled.
"Let's talk about Liang Shidu again. Let's put aside Du Fuwei and Fugong'er. Are there still people who are kings in the Tang Dynasty? I'm afraid not? At most, there are some who occupy the mountains and become kings. He's just a king of the mountains! To say that the one who can separate the country and become a local emperor is Liang Shidu. Liang Shidu occupies Xiazhou and is adjacent to the Turks. Naturally, he wants to continue his dream of being the emperor of the 'Liang Kingdom'!" Lu Chen stopped when he said this, but looked at Li Daozong quietly.
Li Daozong had been digesting Lu Chen's words for a long time. He picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine, and then slowly said: "As expected, it is still what Brother Lu said. The enemies of the Tang Dynasty are not inside but outside!" After saying this After saying that, Li Daozong filled a glass of wine for himself again, picked up the glass, drank it all, and sighed.
"So in the final analysis, the problem of Fugong'er is not a big problem. The real problem is not actually Liang Shidu. Liang Shidu himself is already full of internal conflicts in his so-called 'Liang Kingdom'. The reason why he united with the Turks is He covets the Tang Dynasty just to divert the attention of his Liang Kingdom. At the same time, if he can break through the Tang Dynasty and gain something, he can also consolidate his position!" Lu Chen looked at the butter on the table. The orange flame of the candle said slowly.
