The grand palace not only has a vast area, but also has exquisite and beautiful architecture.
Among the exquisite Buddhist temples that can be seen everywhere in Siam, this palace is extra exquisite.
——If you include the characteristic sea breeze in this area and the white noise of the waves that seems to have been specially tuned every night...
Then we can say without hesitation that the estimated value of this mansion is comparable to the famous houses where the wealthy lived in the California coast in later generations.
And at this time...
In a sunny hall of this mansion...
The King of Siam was sitting and talking with several old men in children's clothes, who looked like they were talking to great scholars.
If it were in China, if anyone saw this scene, they would immediately think that this is the scene where our Majesty and his ministers are discussing matters - but this is not the case. Ordinary people will think that this is a temple or temple.
Liars are preaching scriptures, and this is the common perception.
Of course, this is not the point. The point is that any common people who see this scene can guess that these guys are definitely high-ranking officials in a certain position in the Tang Dynasty and belong to my Majesty's humerus ministers.
However... this is Siam, not Chang'an.
The names of these old men are Wang Jing and Pei Ji...
That’s right, Five Surnames and Seven Hopes!
Now we are re-employed in the Southeast Area, cooperating with the royal families of the fallen, Luzon and other countries. Because Siam’s national power obviously exceeds that of Luzon, so at present, the dominant force in Southeast Area is still Siam, discussing major issues
At that time, the king of Luzon came to Siam with his ministers and guards to attend discussions.
……first.
In the past, it was impossible for the king of Luzon to come to Siam for a meeting like this. The reason is very simple. If he went to the meeting alone and returned to the city smoothly, it would be because he had the extraordinary charisma of Guan Erye, or Talleyrand or Zhang Liang.
It’s something that only top bosses with the ability to assess the situation can do. Even if ordinary people have royal status, go to the meeting alone? Sorry, I will kill you if you dare to come. It’s that simple. After all, Siam and Luzon are neighboring countries.
, wars are commonplace, there is no royal contact. The key is these two countries...
It is also different from the situation in Silla and Baekje.
Silla and Baekje have the suzerain state of Goguryeo, so they have always gotten along well with each other, and there is no life-or-death conflict.
But Siam and Luzon are different. In the long history of the past, in the era before Buddhism, these two guys could easily make big news like the Rwanda Hotel because of their lack of moral restraint.
Generally speaking, this situation means that a fierce man like Shang Yang can act as a common suzerain force and truly stop it for a long time. Apart from the usual situation... there is another normal situation where the original fight can be suppressed.
The forces of death merge into one place.
That is the common enemy.
The common master and the common enemy often go hand in hand...like mirror images.
But who the common enemy of Siam and Luzon is today and where it comes from is simply a matter of course...
After all, even Qi Wang, the fifth surname, appeared here...
"Brother Wang...well, the reason for inviting Brother Wang here this time is..."
The King of Siam still had a nervous look on his face, and it could be seen that he was very sincere.
Before he finished speaking, the King of Siam had already turned his head and glanced at the King of Luzon who was sitting beside him.
It's strange... Although the King of Siam hasn't said a word yet, the King of Luzon showed a look of concern for some reason and nodded directly...
And then, before he finished speaking, the King of Siam looked at Wang Jing and others...
His voice was inexplicably softer, but before he could finish speaking, Wang Jing, Pei Ji and others also nodded solemnly.
Everyone understands it, but there is no doubt that everyone at this moment...
They all looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
So then... Wang Jing coughed lightly, looked at the King of Siam and said seriously, "The king's concerns are not unreasonable. The Tang Dynasty is now a dynasty of tigers and wolves, and its leader is an evil dragon, and all the ministers are minions.
The plan we are taking this time does have certain risks."
"However... Your Majesty has his own ambitions, so there is no need to worry too much. This Li Er is not three-headed and six-armed. He can also grow two wings from his ribs and fly all the way to Red Rock Island? Besides..."
Wang Jing showed a smile as he spoke, "Even if Li Er can grow wings from his ribs, how can he make his soldiers do the same? There is definitely nothing wrong with the Red Rock Island incident!"
The "Red Rock Island Incident" that Wang Jing's words refer to is none other than the incident that Li Er is facing now. The two things are exactly the same thing, but Wang Jing, Pei Ji and others are playing different roles than Li Er.
Just a role.
This incident first started with the exclamation of the King of Siam. That day, everyone exchanged information about the property that the imperial army had recently robbed the rich from overseas and helped the poor. Because of the presence of Wang Jing and others, this group in the Royal City of Siam had an intelligence channel.
Of course, other intelligence channels are not important, but what is important is... the intelligence channels from Datang.
This intelligence channel is not just ordinary, it has to be the most special...the intelligence from Hangzhou must be reliable.
The only people who can do this... No, in Siam, the only people who can do this are Wang Jing, Pei Ji, and the rest of them.
With intelligence channels, the Siam Pirates... No, ah, yes, yes, the Siam Pirates have certainly gained a lot in the past year. The cargo ship from Hangzhou is like raising it for ten years... No
, it is a traditional method of feeding fat pigs directly into semen, and the richness of oil and water is unparalleled.
The amount of gold and silver treasures on board can be said to be jaw-dropping.
Originally, Wang Jing and others were somewhat resistant to this kind of thing at first, but as time went on, even Wang Jing and the others had to realize one thing. The profits from this sea trade were really... so delicious.
It's so fragrant that people can no longer bring up the desire to engage in sea trade.
After some calculation, this matter is very simple...
For Wang Jing and others, by organizing a super caravan with forty ships to go out to sea for trade, the profit they can make in a year is only the amount of twenty ships.
But if you directly transform into a big pirate, you can do so many things in one year!
And for some reason, although it is often said that the way to be a thief... no, the way to be a thief is to lick blood from the edge of a knife, Wang Jing and the others always feel much safer since they embarked on this unimagined road.
...Wang Jing and the others thought about the mystery of this and found it a bit difficult to figure out, but they still concluded a certain reason. This must be because after becoming pirates, they don't have to be controlled by Li Er. The most important thing is to be with Li Er.
Li Er's unruly Forbidden Army is no longer here, this feeling... this feeling is too free, much freer.
