Datang: At the beginning, Li Er was held hostage, shocking the world!

Page 329

"The so-called old man becomes smart, this guy is in his seventies, and I didn't see how shrewd he is!"

"If only he knew one day."

"He is grateful to Emperor Tang, since he is the person behind the scenes that made him fall to this point!"

"It is estimated that he will chop himself up alive with a knife...?"

Li Er let out a long sigh.

Silently mourn for this unlucky guy for three seconds in my heart...

Being unlucky is no big deal.

But being so unlucky as Tong Yehu is rare in the ages...!

But it's no wonder others.

Who told him not to open his eyes and bring the barbarians of the Western Turks over and over again to provoke Datang? !

All the consequences were made by himself...!

"Speaking of which, this guy Mo Hedu is quite capable!"

"The minister didn't expect that he could firmly gain the upper hand in a short period of time!"

"Being able to initially grasp the power within a few days is enough to show how extraordinary this person is!"

Since Mo He Du launched the rebellion.

Almost as quickly as lightning, the forces loyal to Tong Yehu in the West Turkic country were completely crippled!

And decisively chose to control the Turkic capital, and initially took control of the Western Turkic regime!

Ning Chen had reasons to believe it.

If this guy is allowed to sit firmly in the seat under the ass.

For Datang, it might not be such a good thing...!

and so.

"So, Tong Yehu, this trash, has finally come in handy!"

"Just send him back to the West Turkic country."

"Instigating Gaochang, Khotan, Qiuci and other countries to attack them"!

"Then I, Tang Dynasty, can completely stand on the sidelines and watch the great changes in the Western Regions...!"

From start to finish.

Neither Emperor Li Er nor Ning Chen thought about letting Datang end in person and meddling with the affairs of the Western Regions!

All arrangements made.

It's just using their strength to make the countries in the Western Regions consume internally in the chaos!

Could it be that their national strength is all declining, and all of them are half-abandoned.

It's Datang's turn to reap the fruits of victory...!

This calculation, this planning.

The truth is a bit insidious...!

"Brother-in-law..."

"It's been a year or two, and you're still as...sinister as you were at the beginning...!"

Grandpa: "???"

Ning Chen instantly had question marks all over his face.

Turning his head, he stared at his uncle in a daze!

Then he quickly raised his hand and waved it wildly, and then he took a step back pretendingly, and bowed his hands and said:

"No no no..."

"The minister has little talent and learning, but only knows some small skills!"

"It's not like Your Majesty, you open your mouth to benevolent and moral, you are simply a "great saint"!"

When it came to the three words "great sage", Ning Chen emphasized his tone in a mean-spirited manner.

The meaning of the joke is self-evident...

In terms of shame, I, Ning Chen, can't compare to you, uncle...!

Li Er coughed lightly, if he continued to talk about this topic.

Then it is estimated that he, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, is about to become a cunning and sinister guy...

"All right!"

"Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year after all, if I continue to pull you to work, you may not blame me so much...!"

"So, get the hell out and go back home!"

The emperor waved his hand, signaling Ning Chen to get out of here.

And the Duke of the country heard this.

It was also like receiving an amnesty in an instant, after saluting sloppily, he turned around and was about to run away!

It would be great if Lord Ning Guo came to court on the first day of the first lunar month.

Continue to stay here as a laborer...? !

only.

Before Ning Chen, who had lofty ideals, turned around and ran away.

Emperor Li Er suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed Ning Chen's cloak, and pulled him back alive!

"No hurries?!"

"I won't eat you, and I won't let you do hard work!"

His Majesty the Emperor snorted coldly, raised his head and glared at the minister.

"Regarding the matter of Yuanyang Overseas, how is the progress now?!"

"Since the layout of the Western Regions is going to be deployed right now, it is estimated that a lot of money will be spent."

"So I want to know, when will you be able to collect the commercial tax you mentioned last year, brat?!"

Commercial tax!

In the summer and autumn of the first year of Zhenguan.

Ning Chen went to the south of the Yangtze River to deal with three major issues, such as opening up business routes and building a navy.

Up to now, half a year has passed!

Ning Chen turned to look at his uncle, thought for a while, and replied with a smile:

"His Majesty!"

"The first batch of overseas caravans set off around the end of August last year and returned in early November!"

"If they are used for pathfinding, they don't earn much silver."

Having said that, the Duke's words paused for a moment.

Swallowing, he continued with a smile:

"And counting the time, the second batch of caravans from the oceanic Boni Kingdom, Chenla Kingdom, Linyi Kingdom, and Pohuang Kingdom."

"It is estimated that we will be able to return to Yangzhou before mid-January!"

"Conservative estimate."

"This time the commercial tax collected by the imperial court is at least 800 million taels!"

800 taels!

Ning Chen's words were like thunder on the ground, hitting Li Er hard!

His Majesty's face changed instantly, and a fierce light burst out from his pupils!

This 800 million taels of silver, no matter when it is placed, is a huge sum of money!

even.

It has already caught up with Datang's current national silver inventory, one-third...!

at this time.

Ning Chen pulled Li Er's arm meanly.

"Your Majesty..."

"Why don't you take out 100 million taels, make a red envelope, and give it to your little nephews...?!"

"Just treat it as a full moon banquet, as an uncle, you are a little treat for the children...!"

emperor:"???"

"Silver is like a beauty, you bastard is cutting my flesh!"

"roll!"

The author says:

Chapter 342 Your brother is so stingy, you won't even give 100 million taels of silver...! .

In the evening, Duke Ningguo's mansion.

The current Lord Ningguo, holding a small copper shovel, was in the open space of the garden...

Make a snowman……

In a pavilion not far away, Her Highness the Princess was wearing a snow-white fox fur coat.

He was leaning against the vermilion pillar, looking at his husband with a smile on his face.

"Husband, what are you going to pile up?"

Ning Chen, who was holding a shovel to pile up the scattered white snow into a huge ball, raised his head.

Pointing to the white snow under his feet, he smiled and said:

"I have nothing to do today, so I will build you a snowman for my husband!"

talking room.

The Duke of the State started his great business of making snowmen again.

"correct."

"Have all the invitations for the full moon banquet been sent out...?"

Ning Chen suddenly asked with a smile, but his hands kept moving.

Li Mingxue blinked after hearing this.

Stretching out a few slender fingers like jade onions, rubbing his fair forehead, feeling a headache...

"I have sent them all, and I have received invitations..."

Her Royal Highness was a little helpless.

Why since we got married, I feel that my husband has gone further and further on the road of "deception"...

"I have accepted the invitations, but that's right..."

After hearing what his wife said, Ning Chen was taken aback at first.

Then he nodded flatly, without too many psychological fluctuations...

After all, he is Ning Guogong's banquet.

In the entire Great Tang Empire, no one would dare not accept the invitation and blatantly refuse to participate...!
