Chapter 29: Gold everywhere Luo Dou is very greedy. After occupying Qinzhou, he almost ransacked the Qinzhou treasury, but did not give a penny to his soldiers. In fact, when Li Yanqing saw Luo Dou for the first time in the mountains, he could see this guy's temperament. Meaning and insatiable. Those black slang people are just tools for Luo Dou to make money. In the harsh environment of Shiwanda Mountain, Luo Dou could still live very comfortably, but many black people could only live in shacks or caves to support themselves. If you want to get the flesh out of his hands, you have to pay more. But for Li Yanqing, the price he paid will be recovered by him sooner or later. Right now, the most important thing for Li Yanqing is to weaken Luo Dou's power. If we could convert those slang people into our own people, what would happen even if Luo Dou became the king of slang? As Li Shimin said: Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. When Luo Dou lost the people he relied on for a living, what kind of trouble could he make? Li Yanqing is not afraid at all! According to Yan Qing¡¯s plan, after solving Ning Changzhen, he will go to Jiaozhi to visit Gao Shilian. But Gao Jishi opened a new way of thinking for him, so Li Yanqing had to change his plan and decided to test Luo Dou's tone first. So on the night after the war, Li Yanqing took Shen Guang and went directly to Luo Dou's residence. Luo Dou had won a great victory and was holding a banquet in the camp, celebrating with all the cave masters under his command Hearing that Li Yanqing came to visit, Luo Dou couldn't help but feel a little strange. Just as Li Yanqing guessed, Luo Dou is now very satisfied. "As soon as Ning Changzhen dies, he will be the king of western Guangdong As for the Henan king who came from Chang'an, what does he mean in his eyes?" He does have this capital and arrogance, because after occupying Qinzhou, he had hundreds of thousands of rogues in his hands. And how many people are there in the whole of western Guangdong? It can be said that Luo Dou has become the most powerful force in western Guangdong. Of course, Luo Dou would not be so arrogant as to want to take over Jiaozhou and Yongzhou. It would not be good for Han Jialang if he really angered him. Luo Dou¡¯s goal is to become the king of Qinzhou. "But what does it mean for Li Yanqing to come at this time?" Isn¡¯t he going to Jiaozhou? "Let him come in!" Luo Dou didn't even have the intention of getting up to greet him, and sat on the main seat with a big smile. After a while, Li Yanqing arrived at the big tent. There were dozens of elders in the military tent. When they saw Li Yanqing coming in, they all stood up. "Prince Li, please sit down quickly!" Luo Dou still didn't get up and greeted him carelessly. ¡° If Li Yanqing were an ordinary person, or if the two met in private, his attitude would be nothing. "But Li Yanqing represents the Li Tang court, so it is not appropriate for Luo Dou to do this. Several of the people present here are old and have thoughtful expressions on their faces. Although the expression was fleeting, it was noticed by Li Yanqing. Yan Qing looked unconcerned and sat down at the table. "King Li, I would like to borrow flowers to offer to the Buddha. I would like to pay my respects to King Li and all of you. Congratulations on your great victory this time." "Haha, congratulations! Congratulations!" Luo Dou could act aloof, but he didn't It means that those who are old will do the same. Li Yanqing was polite, elegant in manners, and well-spoken, which made these seniors feel quite respectable. After everyone drank, Luo Dou asked, "Why did Prince Li come to my place if he wasn't going to Jiaozhou?" He couldn't bear his temper and asked the question first. Li Yanqing smiled and looked solemn, "King Li, you are all old. Although Ning Changzhen is dead, his son Ning Xuan is still here. I heard people say that Changzhen is a tiger, and Xuan is the son of a tiger This man has many subordinates. There are a lot of people! After thinking about it, I felt that Ning Xuan would be a serious problem, so I took the liberty to come here to disturb you, just to ask for countermeasures. " Luo Dou said, "It's not because I don't want to send troops. The children are tired after repeated battles. Besides, hasn¡¯t Ning Xuan escaped from Qinzhou? If he comes back, I won¡¯t let him go. But if he doesn¡¯t come back Prince Li, you also know that there are slanderers. The rules of the slang. He escaped from Qinzhou and it was hard for me to pursue him." Ning Xuan fled to Liaozi tribe, which is located in Yunnan and Guizhou. It is said that Ning Changzhen and Liao Zibu have a close relationship and are very friendly. The Liaozi Department, as the name suggests, is the Liao people. However, these officials are all raw officials, which are different from the officials in Minshu. In Qinzhou, Luo Dou?You can say the same thing. "But if you pursue people across the border, you will violate the customs of the Li people If you send troops across the border, you will start a war against my subordinates." This kind of thing is not without precedent. If Luo Dou had a close relationship with the Liaozi tribe, he could kill Ning Xuan through redemption; but he had been hiding in the mountains before and was suppressed by Ning Changzhen before it was too late. How could he have a chance to contact the Liaozi tribe? The others, all old, nodded. Seeing this, Li Yanqing couldn't help but feel a little disappointed and said, "In this way, we lost a lot of property for nothing." "Prince Li, why does the pursuit of Ning Xuan have anything to do with property?" Luo Dou has a good ear, and Li Yanqing has a good ear. Deliberately saying this immediately aroused his interest. "You guys don't know. I heard that the Liaozi tribe is extremely wealthy because of its close relationship with Zhenla You may not know yet, but during the Daye Year, there was a rebellion in the Zhenla Kingdom. The rebels purchased weapons through the Liaozi tribe, and the Liaozi tribe gained a lot from it. It was quite rich. At that time, the leader of the Zhenla Kingdom sent an envoy, Funan, to Luoyang to ask for help, but he ignored it because of the war I originally planned to launch an attack on Liaozi due to Ning Xuan's affairs, and then march south into Zhenla. "Haha, since you are in trouble, let's forget about it." "Is Zhenla Country very rich?" Everyone asked, exactly what Luo Dou wanted to ask. Li Yanqing smiled and said: More than just wealth I heard people say that there is gold everywhere in Zhenla, and there is a lot of money and food. The leader of the Zhenla Kingdom is willing to use the capital's treasury in exchange. It is said that Moreover, to the west of the Zhenla Kingdom, there is the Tianzhu Kingdom. There are many Buddhist temples there, the floors are paved with gold, and even the Buddha statues are pure gold. It's just that I have no excuse, so it's hard for me to start a war without permission. It is said that the rebels of Zhenla Kingdom have sent envoys to Chang'an. If the imperial court accepts their surrender and wants to start a war, there will be no excuse But it is a pity that so much money and silk goods were exposed in broad daylight. The wind and rain cannot be mine. " As he spoke, Li Yanqing still showed a look of regret. Luo Dou's eyes suddenly lit up! "Well, the envoy from Jiaozhou is still waiting for Gu to leave, so I won't disturb you all. " After Li Yanqing finished speaking, he stood up and was about to leave. Luo Dou finally stood up and said, "Prince Li, why are you leaving in such a hurry? " "Oh, I am really busy with official business and I have to leave Well, King Li and you can always go back to Qinzhou. If you have anything, we can discuss it after I come back. " Luo Dou was willing to let Li Yanqing leave just like that But Yan Qing insisted on leaving and repeatedly promised that he would return immediately as soon as the matter with the state was over. After Li Yanqing left, Luo Dou and others no longer had the nature to drink. The treasury of Zhenla Kingdom and the gold all over Tianzhu Kingdom made them feel extremely itchy, but Li Yanqing only spoke half of it, which made them feel even more uncomfortable. After a long time, Luo Dou asked: "What do you think?" Is what Prince Li just said true? " "Oh, the rebellion in Zhenla Kingdom is indeed true. At that time, the leader of the Zhenla Kingdom borrowed a road from Qinzhou to go to Chang'an As for the gold everywhere in Tianzhu Kingdom, I have also heard people say it. "However, if this matter does not have the support of Prince Li, I am afraid it will be difficult to make it happen. " "Yes. Besides, it doesn't make sense to let the children go off to war just after they have found a place to live" " "King Li, I just saw Prince Li hesitate to speak, and it seems that he has already come up with an idea. ¡°When he goes to Jiaozhou, what if he negotiates with others there? I heard that the Feng family in Panyu seems to have decided to submit to Prince Li. Such a good thing cannot be taken advantage of by the Feng family. After all, we are gangsters, but we have helped Prince Li a lot Otherwise, let's send someone to chase him and ask Prince Li again? "Gold, gold! At this time, Luo Dou's mind was filled with gold. "In that case, let Lin Su go. " Lin Su is one of the elders of the black slang. He is not too old and has a very flexible mind. Everyone heard this and praised him in unison. So Luo Dou immediately sent someone to find Lin Su and ordered him to go. Chasing Li Yanqing In March of the fourth year of Wude, the Sui army from Jingshan suddenly attacked across the river. Li Shimin set up an ambush at Jingmen and defeated the Sui army Du Fuwei disappeared during the chaos and his whereabouts are unknown. Taking the opportunity to cross the river, Fang Xuanling failed to meet him. When Du Fuwei crossed the river to attack, he led his troops to withdraw from Yingzhou and defended it in Anlu. Although Li Shimin captured Yingzhou, he did not harm Fang. Xuanling has half of his vitality.
