Bone King's Universal Grocery

Chapter 170 tit for tat
Li Ganshi glanced at the serious-looking princes below, feeling something was wrong in his heart, but his expression didn't change at all, and asked calmly: "All the elders of the clan came to look for me together, but what's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, news is spreading everywhere in our fief today, saying that the leader of Huangyu is not my Li clan. Does Your Majesty know anything about this?" Xuan Wang, the highest seniority among the fifteen princes, Stand up and ask.

King Xuan's words caused turmoil in Li Qianshi's heart. He never expected that the princes came to him because of this matter.

But at this time Li Qianshi didn't want to tell these princes about the matter, so he suppressed his inner emotions, pretended to be ignorant and said, "Oh? There is such a thing? It must be fabricated by someone with a heart!"

"So His Majesty didn't know? That minister dared to ask His Majesty to send someone to investigate."

"What's there to investigate? It's just a farce. Are you too concerned? Why waste manpower and material resources to investigate?"

"Your Majesty, this is not a small matter related to the territory of our Tang Dynasty. Please be careful, Your Majesty," Tong Wang continued.

"Careful? Do you think I should be cautious?"

"Naturally, it was carefully checked from beginning to end."

Li Ganshi laughed angrily at the words of the princes: "From the beginning to the end, carefully and carefully? Heh, according to what you mean, do you want to check even the files that the late emperor personally read?"

"In order to protect the territory of my Tang Dynasty, it should be investigated."

"Presumptuous! How dare you talk about the late emperor!"

"Your Majesty, it's not that we talked about the late emperor indiscriminately, but that you and the late emperor have something to hide from us." King Yan said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, please tell the truth at this time." Among the princes, the king of Chu who has the closest relationship with the emperor also stood up and said.

Seeing that even the King of Chu, who was personally appointed by the late emperor, threatened him with words, the eunuch Dahai next to Li Qianshi knew that today's matter might not be concealed anymore, so he secretly sent a voice message to Li Qianshi: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that this matter cannot be concealed anymore." , you listen to the old slave and tell the princes! '

'Say?How to say?Do you just tell them the secret of that person? '

'Your Majesty, the princes have never asked that person's secret!They just want to know if that person is a member of the Li family, you just need to tell them, anyway, you are planning to use troops against the wasteland recently, if the princes speak out to persecute them, it will just drag them into the water. '

'what?This is a good idea. These princes live more comfortably in their fiefs than I do. They must have a lot of good things in their hands, but they can be used. '

'Your Majesty is holy. '

So Li Qianshi sighed and said: "Oh! Since the elders of the clan want to know, I can't hide it anymore. The leader of the wasteland is not my Li clan, and it has nothing to do with my Li family."

"What? This person is really not a member of my clan. Your Majesty, you and the late emperor are confused! It is ridiculous that someone who is not from our clan has occupied such a large land of the dynasty for hundreds of years."

"It's not that I and the first emperor were confused. It's because the wasteland is protected by the Qilin family and the dust traces. In addition, the leader of the wasteland is also a fairyland. Rushing to war with the wasteland is equivalent to facing the last three fairylands. It is true for our dynasty." Not a good thing.

And don't forget, everyone, there is a land of gods and demons outside of the dynasty, and the city of liberty must be on guard. It's not that I don't want to take back the wasteland, I really can't! "

"Then you can't watch the land of my Tang Dynasty fall into other people's hands!" King Yan said with a frown.

"I think the same as you all, and I don't want to, and I don't want to be like this, but I don't have enough strength to take back the wasteland. Would you like to help me?"

The princes fell silent instantly when they heard the words. They came to put pressure on the emperor, but judging from what the emperor meant, they clearly wanted to drag them into trouble!
Seeing the state of the crowd, Li Qianshi asked with a straight face: "What? Aren't the elders of the clan unwilling to help?"

"What does your majesty say, of course we are willing, but the years of our fiefdom have not been very good in recent years, and we don't have much money on hand. I'm afraid it's because we have more energy than we want!" King Xuan said hastily.

"It doesn't matter, the elders of the clan will give as much as they have, and I will not dislike it."

When the princes heard the words, they almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. They were here to question the emperor, but in the end they lost their money.

But the words have already been spoken, and it is impossible not to give them. The princes could only reluctantly take out some money and hand it over to the emperor, and then hurriedly resigned.

After coming out of the imperial study, Tong Wang wiped the cold sweat off his brow, and said to King Yan: "King Yan, I was too anxious about this matter, and I'm really sorry for causing King Yan to spend money."

King Yan shook his head when he heard the words and said, "You don't have to blame yourself, the king, this matter has nothing to do with you, the emperor is too cunning."

"Why did King Yan make such a statement?"

"There are only two possibilities for this matter to become like this. First, this matter was set up by His Majesty the Emperor for us. From the leak of the news, to our coming to him, to telling the truth, and finally asking us for money, It was all planned by him.

Another possibility is that this incident was not planned by him at the beginning, but when we forced him, he thought of a way and turned us around.

No matter which one it is, our Emperor, His Majesty, is not easy!He is no longer the brat he was when he first became a Dabao. "

"I wonder which possibility King Yan thinks is more likely?"

"The first one! The source of the news you found is in the emperor's private property, and these properties used to belong to the Lin family. At first glance, it seems that the emperor has set up a ecstasy formation. He wants us to focus on the Lin family."

After hearing King Yan's conjecture, Tong Wang gasped in shock: "Hiss~~ Has this kid become so cunning now?"

"People are subject to change, let alone the person sitting in that position, that's enough, don't mention it again after today, just treat it as a lesson learned with money."

"That's all it takes."

In this way, the princes returned to their fiefs, and Li Qianshi, who received a large sum of money, immediately began to expand his armaments, hoarding puppets, magic scrolls and other weapons of mass destruction, and began to attack the wasteland when the time was right.

Rumors and gossip often come and go quickly. Within a few days, the rumors in various state capitals gradually subsided.

But what everyone didn't expect was that one wave was just flattened, and another wave would rise again. As soon as the rumors here subsided, the barren lands publicly denounced the injustice of the current dynasty, and scolded the slavery system and the Li Tang Dynasty. Shower.

The first reaction of all the people of the Tang Dynasty after hearing the news was: it's over, this time it's really going to be a complete war.
