Drive the RV back to Datang

Chapter 782 Chapter 801: Puppet King

Although Fan Lihua didn't know much about ginseng, she didn't understand at all. Looking at the ginseng in the box, she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Such a big ginseng must not be ordinary."

Luo Ji hesitated for a moment when she heard the words, and boldly said: "General Fan, this is the King of Shen in 2000."

"Year 2000!" Fan Lihua was extremely shocked when she heard the words. She couldn't even imagine the King of Shen in 2000, how precious it must be.

She frowned immediately, and pondered: "This thing is too precious, I must return it to him when I have a chance."

Luo Ji found that Fan Lihua seemed to have a good temper, so she added another sentence: "The commander-in-chief can give such a precious thing to General Fan without hesitation, which shows how much he cares for General Fan."

Fan Lihua was silent when she heard the words, Li Hao liked her, she knew that she also liked Li Hao, but there would always be some small problems between them, first her father died, then Li Hao took a concubine, besides, Li Hao There are too many wives and concubines, which makes her feel a little grudge. She is afraid that after marrying Li Hao, she will not be able to get along with Li Hao's wives and concubines. After all, her temperament is too straightforward and she is not good at interacting with others. , maybe she and Li Hao really have a deep relationship.

After thinking wildly for a while, Fan Lihua started to take a bath, but she didn't ask Luo Ji to serve her in the bath, and she didn't even let Luo Ji watch, because she was really not used to it.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, hundreds of officials went to court. Today's court is different from the past. They were forced. In the palace, there are Tang soldiers with swords and guns everywhere. The officials can only shrink their heads and lower their heads into the palace. They didn't even dare to look aside.

But there was a white-haired old man in the crowd who was very arrogant. He glanced at Tang Jun from time to time and snorted coldly to express his disdain and anger towards the Tang people.

When they arrived at the hall, they lined up neatly and began to wait. After waiting for about half an hour, they heard a shout: "The king of Qiongnan County of the Tang Dynasty has arrived!"

I saw Li Hao striding into the hall in a suit of armor, with his cloak flying behind his back, so unassuming.

After Li Hao entered the hall, he walked directly onto the Luantai, turned around and faced all the officials of Silla, and then all the officials of Silla saluted one after another: "Greetings to King Qiongnan County of the Tang Dynasty!"

Li Hao clearly saw that there was a white-haired old man with a straight waist, he didn't salute, and everyone else bowed to salute, but he stood out from the crowd, so prominent and eye-catching.

Li Hao frowned, pointed at the old man, and asked, "Who are you! Why are you so rude when you see me!"

The old man snorted coldly: "Why did the old man salute you!"

Li Hao sneered and said: "Since Silla has surrendered to my Tang Dynasty, your king is also a subject of my Tang Emperor. This king is the king of Qiongnan County, who is on the same level as your Silla king. You said you met?" My lord, do you want to salute!"

The white-haired old man also sneered: "Since our Silla is a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, why did the Tang Dynasty send unrighteous troops to attack our Silla city, trample on our Silla territory, and slaughter our Silla king and people!"

Li Hao walked down the Luantai slowly, came to the old man, and said coldly: "Since you have the face to ask, then I will answer you, why did my Tang Dynasty attack Silla, because you Silla invaded my Datang twice?" As a vassal state, the territory of the Tang Dynasty has been honored and violated, so it should be fought!"

The old man quibbled: "But we sent envoys to plead guilty twice, and also sent countless treasures to show our sincerity!"

Li Hao snorted coldly, and his voice became cold and high-pitched: "The territory is bought by the soldiers with their lives and blood. Even if you ask for a hundred crimes, it will be useless. Anyone who dares to offend my Great Tang Tianwei! punish!"

The old man was speechless immediately. After all, they were at fault for this matter. He naively thought that pleading guilty would prevent Datang from being held accountable, but that was not the case.

Li Hao turned back to the Luantai, and said loudly: "A country cannot live without a king. Jin Chunqiu made a big mistake, which led to such a catastrophe for you in Silla. Don't worry about it. Now the king has to choose A new monarch, this person must be loyal to Datang!"

Standing in the front row, Park Zhiyong was trembling with excitement. Finally, he was about to ascend the throne.

Li Hao paused, then pointed at Pu Zhiyong, and said, "Pu Zhiyong, come here!"

Pu Zhiyong stepped onto the Luantai, and almost fell because he was too excited. When he stood beside Li Hao, Li Hao said loudly: "From today onwards, Pu Zhiyong is your king of Silla!"

As soon as this remark came out, all the officials were shocked. They thought that Li Hao would choose a king from the royal family, but they did not expect to pick Pu Zhiyong. The white-haired old man suddenly stepped out, pointed at Pu Zhiyong, and shouted loudly: " Pu Zhiyong, you bastard, defected to the Tang people, betrayed the country for glory, you are a sinner of Silla, what qualifications do you have to be the king of Silla!"

Li Hao frowned, and said coldly: "My lord, my patience is limited, please shut your mouth before I get angry!"

"What are you afraid of, old man!" The white-haired old man glared at Li Hao without any fear, and said, "This old man has studied the knowledge of sages and has a righteous spirit in his body, so why fear you, a treacherous person!" It seems that this old man is from Xinluo Among them, the literati who like to delve into the culture of the Tang Dynasty the most.

Li Hao finally lost his patience. He strode down the Luantai and came to the old man again. Without saying a word, he simply stretched out his hand, pinched his throat, and lifted him up. It was as easy as lifting a bag. duck.

The old man was lifted off the ground by Li Hao, his hands and feet danced wildly, and he struggled in pain, but it was useless. All the ministers in the hall looked at this scene in shock, but no one dared to speak out, and kept silent like a cicada.

The old man struggled desperately, his face flushed with blood, but after all he couldn't break free from Li Hao's iron hand, his movements became weaker and weaker, and finally his limbs dropped and did not move.

Li Hao threw the old man's body about three feet away, directly out of the main hall, and then said loudly: "Find out who this old man is, and kill all his family members. Keep!"

"Yes!" Wang Xiaojie outside the hall immediately took the order and left.

A minister felt that this was too cruel, and hurriedly interceded: "King Qiongnan, can you spare his family's life, after all, his family is innocent."

Li Hao turned his head to look at the official, raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, how about using your family to save your life?"

The official's face turned pale with fright, and he didn't dare to speak immediately.

Li Hao returned to the Luantai and said loudly: "From today, our Tang Dynasty will send [-] troops to Silla and establish a consulate. , No matter what government affairs Silla has, it must be approved by the consulate before it can be released, otherwise, all of you will die!"

As soon as this remark came out, the entire hall was shocked, even Pu Zhiyong was shocked beyond measure, how could things have turned into this, if it was true, it would mean that he and all the ministers were controlled by the Tang people!

Just as Pu Zhiyong was about to speak, he heard Li Hao say again: "In a few months, a large number of people from the Tang Dynasty will come here to live and settle down. The Silla government must provide housing for everyone. From now on, Silla cannot set up an army." , only government officials are allowed to set up servants to maintain law and order, and only wooden sticks can be used as weapons. Also, after five months, all Silla people must speak Tang language and learn Datang characters. Park Zhiyong will also tell Xinluo All the people in Silla, Silla is a branch of China, but they have not been in China for a long time, so they are willing to degenerate here. Except for the officials of the court, all the people of Silla are enslaved, and those who are slaves are not allowed to be officials. You are not allowed to do business, but you are only allowed to work or farm. If you want to get out of slavery, you have to work hard to work and farm. If you work hard for a lifetime, you can get your children out of slavery and become citizens of the Tang Dynasty..."

Li Hao made a long request, and finally ended with a sentence: "As mentioned above, if you dare to violate one, you will be greeted with a catastrophe!"

After the words fell, the hall was silent, and there was a long silence. Pu Zhiyong stared at Li Hao dumbfounded, his intestines were green with regret, he didn't understand, he had obviously buried his father in the dragon's veins, he should be lucky, why did he As it is today, seeing Li Hao's stern attitude, he hardly dared to ask or pray, because he was afraid that Li Hao would strangle him like the minister just now. According to what Li Hao said, he is still a king. What is the meaning of existence? The only meaning is to become a puppet of the Tang Dynasty, used to enslave hundreds of thousands of people in Silla. Now he desperately wants to meet someone—Liu Xuanji.

After finally waiting for the court to leave, Pu Zhiyong rushed home in a hurry and went to look for Liu Xuanji in the side courtyard. However, when he opened the door, he found that the room was empty, and there was not a single piece of clothes or shoes left. Pu Zhiyong immediately slumped on the ground , his heart was full of despair, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that he had been fooled, Silla...it was over.

After Li Hao disbanded, he moved out of the palace and sent a boat back to Datang to deliver the news. At the same time, he asked Datang to send someone to take over Silla, because it is impossible for Li Hao to stay in Silla as the consul general of the consulate.

At the same time, in Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty, Wu Meiniang had already started her schemes and tricks. Since Wu Meiniang entered the palace, she and the queen have gradually gained favor, and she has also behaved very well, being approachable and considerate to slaves and maidservants in the palace. The maidservants were of low status and were never treated directly by the concubines, but Wu Meiniang greeted them with care, which moved many maidservants and servants. This touch cannot be achieved by rewarding money.

In fact, Wu Meiniang's tricks are not considered superb, but Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu can't do it, because they are of noble birth, how could they condescend to condescend to talk to lowly maidservants, they are not like Wu Meiniang, who came here after suffering all the way, so Wu Meiniang can be willing Use your identity to mingle with the subordinates.

Wu Meiniang's behavior, in the eyes of Queen Wang, is really normal, and Queen Wang thinks that Wu Meiniang is kind-hearted, and feels more at ease with her.However, before she knew it, Wu Meiniang had secretly instigated against the maids around Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu, and planted eyeliner around them. Although she also spent a little money, it didn't cost much.

And at this time, Concubine Xiao Shu did a very stupid thing, she drugged Wu Meiniang.

Why did Concubine Xiao Shu suddenly think of prescribing Wu Meiniang, because Concubine Xiao Shu had given birth to her for more than a month, and Li Zhi visited her twice when she gave birth, and never came again after that.

How could concubine Xiao Shu, who had always been favored, bear this tone, thinking that it was Wu Meiniang's fault. After all, Li Zhi started to neglect her only after Wu Meiniang entered the palace.

Concubine Xiao Shu naturally didn't dare to kill Wu Meiniang, but a small punishment is still possible, so she secretly put a laxative in Wu Meiniang's bird's nest, but it was this small laxative that made her doomed.
