Chapter 434 Crisis
The moment the imperial decree was conveyed to the prison, Li Xian sat quietly on the prison bed, looking at the beam of light cast by the large window of the bowl, the whole person seemed to be in a dream.

The official position was cut, and it seemed that his whole body became lighter. He slightly raised the corner of his mouth and watched the light dust dancing in the sun. Li Xian felt a sense of relief that he had never felt before.

It seems that the burden on the shoulders is completely put down in a moment, and it is very comfortable to bathe in the sun.

Li Xian knew that he had worked so hard to design a farce, which made the aloof king feel his good intentions.

In the court hall, the old ministers who admired His Highness the Crown Prince clearly came into Li Shimin's mind, and a seemingly intentional or unintentional effort to set things right was secretly toned in the entire court hall.

What gave Li Shimin the most headache was the firearms battalion.

The country's sharp weapon, which was previously controlled by Li Xian, was briefly leaderless. The original Shangshu Wen of the Ministry of Industry filled the original vacancy. In a more violent vortex.

The token sent from the prison was genuine, and Elder Wen was also excited to get the token.

In the past, the sharp weapon of the country that I tried my best to take a piece of it from it, appeared in front of my eyes, and it would be the beginning of my dazzling light again when I was about to die in my old age. It really made those skinny hands tremble with excitement .

Stretching out his hand to open the iron box wrapped in copper, Elder Wen even thought of the fact that the descendants of the past would kowtow in front of his spiritual throne to give thanks at the moment he opened the box.

After all, this Shengfang Kingdom's sharp weapon formula will be a heavy weapon presented by the prince himself when he ascends the throne, and it will make him rank among the respected status of meritorious veterans.

With a musty smell floating in the air, Wen Lao tremblingly opened a gap, looking nervously and excitedly into the box.

With the help of the cast beam, the box in the light and shadow is empty, as clean as if it had been licked by a dog.

The cold water on his head extinguished the last trace of fantasy in Old Wen's mind, he kept rubbing his hands in the empty box, and his eyes gradually lost their original expression.

This Li Xian was afraid that the formula of the firearm camp would be leaked, so he kept the formula in his heart?

Sun Zhe slipped and fell on the desk, and sat slumped on the cold floor.

The fantasy of the descendants of the glorious lintel in his heart also disappeared in a moment, and as for offering this important treasure to Li Chengqian, it also disappeared in a moment.

"It's over, it's over...how can I make such a military weapon..."

Indistinct words spit out from the soft lips, and the dejected figure completely lost the high ambition before.

Thinking of the promise he made with Li Chengqian in private, and thinking of his words when he tried to push Li Xian into the abyss when he was punished by the court, Brunei felt extra cold all over his body...

I don't know how long it took, the figure who seemed to have been robbed of his consciousness stepped out of the pavilion step by step, Xu Mao, who had been waiting outside for a long time and had always been submissive, rushed to meet him and bowed.

"Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, the ratio of gunpowder in the west workshop is now a problem, and the corresponding ratio will continue to be used for production."

"Those Thunderbolts that are not in compliance with the ratio have been picked out. How to disassemble it is up to Mr. Wen to give the answer."

"The number of craftsmen complaining against Li Xian gradually increased, and the number of strike craftsmen increased..."

The absent-minded old man raised his head slightly and looked at the blue sky with a sad face.

"Li Xian...you are really embarrassing this old man..."

……

Suzaku Long Street.

Lu Anzan, the Tubo prime minister who had been hiding in Chang'an for a long time, finally met Li Shimin before his final departure.

Li Shimin sat on the chariot under the fluttering banner, under the cover of two interwoven cattail fans, he looked at the half-kneeling figure on the opposite side.

Li Shiming was naturally happy that the Prime Minister of Tubo could end up in such a low-key manner today.

In particular, the respectful and meticulous drooping face of the Prime Minister of Tubo made Li Shimin very excited.

"The noble envoy from Tubo came to Tang for a few days, but I was busy with political affairs. I hope that the noble envoy will not be careless."

Looking at the bluestone ground so close, Lu Anzan gritted his teeth to endure the humiliation in his heart, and when he raised his eyes again, there was a warm smile on his face.

"The agricultural and mulberry fields of the Great Tang Dynasty are flourishing, and the mighty generals need more energy to cultivate and rectify them. It is only natural for His Majesty to take care of all kinds of opportunities every day."

"The visit of the Tubo envoys this time is for the sake of the friendship between the two countries. How could they be so concerned about trivial matters?"

Ha ha ha.

Li Shimin couldn't have imagined Lu Anzan's true thoughts, but this kind of flattering words that he couldn't express despite his suffering really had a sense of conquest, and he laughed heartily without realizing it.

"The Prime Minister thinks so, it is exactly in line with my heart."

"Come here, give me three boxes of gold and silver, and a hundred pieces of cloth and silk as a token of my friendship with Tang Dynasty."

Lu An Zan, who was half kneeling on the ground, waited for half the night, but he didn't see the books on farming and mulberry skills and the improved seed rewards, so he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"This time it's in vain."

I thought so in my heart, but I didn't dare to slack off in my mouth, and bowed long and bowed.

"Thank you Your Majesty for your grace."

The words stopped for a moment, Lu Anzan showed a trace of uneasiness and hesitation, the breeze passing through the long street blew up the thick beard under his chin, and a voice that pondered for a while asked from the corner of his mouth.

"His Majesty."

"The descendants of the Khan admire the grandeur of the Tang Dynasty, and they even admire the women born in the Jiangnan water town. Regarding the in-laws of the two countries..."

The original arrogance had long since been forgotten, and he changed into a servile demeanor. Lu Anzan trembled in his heart, fearing that Li Shimin would withdraw from the marriage in a moment of displeasure.

The news of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and the creation of a military weapon has already penetrated into the hearts of Lu Anzan, and he is very clear in his heart that he can only surrender now, at least until he thinks of resisting such a terrifying force!
With a light wave of his arm, Li Shimin seemed to have expected it, a smile hung on the corner of his mouth, and a sense of pride floated on his majestic face under the light and shadow.

"Tubo is sincere, and Tang Dynasty should treat each other with courtesy."

"You tell the Tubo Khan that my daughter is worth thousands of gold, and go and prepare a good house and gorgeous clothes. The accompanying monks also need temple courts to live in, so don't neglect them."

Under the eaves, he had to bow his head. The Tubo Prime Minister didn't say anything about the simple and easy-to-understand truth, and he put his hands on his chest and became shorter.

"Your Majesty of the Tang Dynasty is as benevolent as Yao and Shun, and he has a powerful weapon in his hands. Standing on the top of the East is just around the corner."

"I wish His Majesty ten thousand years and a long-lasting foundation."

The words of flattery were on the right track, Li Shimin laughed, and stretched out his hand to signal the group of people to get up.After several people stood up from the ground, Li Shimin slowly got out of the carriage with his hands behind his back, strode beside Tubo Prime Minister, and patted Lu Anchan on the shoulder like a big brother.

"It's a tiring journey, and it's hot in April and May. It's hard work."

"Go."

Saluting to Li Shimin again, Lu Anzan led his subordinates, Shichen, onto the camel, and walked slowly while the crowd watched.

The hump-necked wind chime swayed in the wind, and the crisp sound of the bell reached Li Shimin's ears, and his formerly gentle face became more serious.

"Smooter!"

"One day without firearms, these barbarians will have no peace of mind!"
