Cui Li's expression didn't change at all when he spoke, as if he said something unimportant.
Lu Jun trembled all over: "Wang and Li are both from a century-old family!"
Prince Li Na of Taiyuan is really a century-old family with extremely deep foundations. The Lu family where Lu Jun belongs to also has to miss them.
Cui Li didn't care: "If you don't have great merit, how can His Majesty value you? How can you get into the inner strength? Wang Li is suitable because he is a rich family. How can an ordinary family get into His Majesty's eyes?"
Lu Jun felt cold in his heart, Cui Li is so poisonous!
The Wang family and the Li family are married to the Cui family, and their marriage relationship has lasted for hundreds of years.
Now Cui Li wants to destroy it.
But Lu Jun knew that Cui Li was right. The emperor had a high vision, and ordinary families would definitely look down on him. Only wealthy families like this were worthy of the emperor's attention.
Cui Li said: "Wang Li is disrespectful to His Majesty, this is a ready reason!"
Lu Jun quickly said: "Why don't you talk to them first and let them submit to Your Majesty!"
Cui Lixin said that Lu Jun was just timid. Now that he has become an official and has reached the cabinet level, he needs to be far-sighted.
How can you be a prime minister without a big picture?
Lu Jun is indeed inferior to him, but he needs Lu Jun's help in the court, so this time he will help Lu Jun enter the cabinet.
Cui Li patted Lu Jun on the shoulder and nodded, agreeing to let Lu Jun go discuss it with Wang and Li's family first.
But when he left, his eyes were very fierce.
Lu Jun was startled when he saw Cui Li leaving. Lu Jun quickly went into the dog hole to see Zhu Youde.
After hearing what the other party said, Zhu Youde was stunned.
Oops, Cui Li actually wants to mess with the Wang and Li families. That’s right, you’re getting bolder.
Lu Jun looked at Zhu Youde carefully and asked, "I wonder what your majesty thinks, can you tell me?"
Zhu Youde picked up an apple, held it in his hand and released it, repeating this process without saying a word.
After a while, Zhu Youde said: "The current priority is the Mongol people in the north. We will discuss the matter of Wang and Li later."
Lu Jun understood, but he still couldn't bear it when he thought of his position in the cabinet.
Zhu Youde doesn't want to touch the family now, for fear of affecting the war in the north, then he will not have the merit to enter the cabinet.
"Why don't you talk to the Wang and Li clan first?" Lu Jun said, "It's good to be prepared."
"Can."
Let's talk about it first, hoping that the other party will understand. I think so, but Zhu Youde is really not optimistic. If the Wang and Li clans were sensible, they would have come to the capital to see him and express his position.
Since he has never come to the capital, it means that the other party wants to fight against the imperial power.
Zhu Youde's mind was still on the war in the north, and this time he had sent nearly half a million troops.
If the Mongols go south, the pressure on Daliang will be too great. If not, the country will be destroyed.
In a tavern in the capital, Tang Boyong and Li Xu met again.
Both of their faces looked excited.
"I didn't expect that the Mongol people would go south at this time. Daliang is in a hurry now. This is the opportunity I have been waiting for!" Li said wisely: "It would be great if we could contact the Mongol people."
Tang Boyong shook his head to stop him and said: "The Mongolians are cruel and murderous. They are the great enemies of the Central Plains. You must not have such thoughts. Otherwise, you will undoubtedly be in league with the money wolf!"
Li Shu sneered but didn't care: "If the beam is not destroyed, we in the Southern Tang Dynasty will have no chance. As long as we can get the skin of a tiger, it doesn't matter if we are a tiger or a wolf."
Tang Boyong looked at Li Shu in disbelief: "Prince, if we join forces with the barbarians, we will become sinners through the ages, and I don't know how many people will die miserably. We must not!"
Seeing that Tang Boyong was excited, Li Shu thought for a moment and smiled: "I just thought about it and didn't really contact the Mongol people. I also know that the Mongol people are cruel and cruel. Cooperating with them will not do anything to us."
benefit."
Tang Boyong breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that Zhu Youde was busy dealing with the Mongol people and had no time to think about things in the Southern Tang Dynasty.
This was the time when Nan Tang was working hard and preparing.
"Third Prince, I think we should return to the Southern Tang Dynasty now to persuade His Majesty to prepare the army for war and reform the government. We can go to the Southern Tang Dynasty while Da Liang is free. This is a rare opportunity."
Li Chen thought for a moment and nodded, looked at Tang Boyong and said with a smile: "I'm going back, and you're staying? Just wait for my aunt to come to Daliang so that you can meet her!"
Tang Boyong was stunned and said anxiously: "The eldest princess and I are innocent!"
Li Xu waved his hand: "Whether you are innocent or not has nothing to do with me, but you need to understand that you don't want to ruin the big thing. She will be the Emperor of Liang in the future!"
Tang Boyong sat blankly, staring at the table with his eyes stopped; he didn't even know when Li Xu left.
Thinking of the eldest princess, his face showed bitterness. He naturally understood that the third prince was warning him that it was okay to meet with the eldest princess, but anything else was absolutely not allowed.
Thinking that his beloved would eventually become Zhu Youde's woman, Tang Boyong grabbed the table with his hands, leaving deep marks, and he didn't even feel that his hands were dripping with blood.
……………………………………………………
Beiyan Dasong City is built on a mountain. The mountains are mostly covered with pine trees. The local area is famous for its abundant pine trees.
The entire city is made of wood, but now the eye is occupied by Han Wugui and has become his military camp.
The freeze period in the Northeast was terrible, and his army had suffered severe frostbite.
We can only stop continuing the Northern Expedition!
Li Rong was boiling tea in the room, and when he opened his mouth, he sprayed out a stream of white mist. He tried his best to cover his clothes, but the cold wind from the north still penetrated through the gaps in his clothes.
Han Wuguili walked in, and Li Rong quickly poured tea for Han Wuguili. The two of them sat down and stared at each other.
Li Rong whispered to Han Wugui: "If the emperor of Daliang knew that it was you who instigated the Mongol people to go south, I wonder if he would be furious!"
Han Wugui sneered: "I don't care if he will be furious. I only know that if I don't encourage the Mongol people to go south, Daliang will be restless. Now that the mountains are blocked by heavy snow, our army can't move. I'm just worried that Daliang will suddenly
send troops!"
Li Rong nodded: "Is there any news from the second prince? Is he willing to surrender?"
Han Wugui shook his head: "He still wants to try. When the snow stops, I plan to attack again. Then I will have no choice but to apologize to the late emperor!"
Li Rong was stunned and said quickly: "You want to kill him? After all, he is a prince, you are a minister, and this is the following crime."
Han Wugui shook his head: "If he hadn't launched a sneak attack, the late emperor would not have died. How could our Yan country have reached this point? He must die."
Li Rong saw that Han Wugui had made up his mind and said nothing more: "Then do it cleanly and don't let others know. This can be considered as revenge for the late emperor."
Han Wugui's army attacked the second prince of the Yan Kingdom smoothly. If the weather had not suddenly changed, the second prince would have been captured by now.
According to his plan, he first captured the second prince, and then went north to Shengjing to escort the third prince to the throne. By then, the civil strife would be over.
But he didn't know that while he was talking to Li Rong, Zhao Shanhe arrived with the supplies provided by Zhu Youde.
