Chapter 252 Convince Wei Zheng

"Oh, Uncle Du, why are you pulling me? I'm just a little person, it's not my turn to fight against thunder!"

The angry Du Ruhui pulled Li Hao out. Wei Zheng's affairs were too big. If this brat didn't explain clearly, there would be endless troubles.

Li Hao was not sure and dared not break free. He was all older, and he had old arms and legs. If he broke it, he couldn't afford to pay.

Du Ruhui sneered: "You are still a little man, boy, you are afraid you have any misunderstandings about the three words "little man."

"I'm a little guy."

Seeing the two of them tugging, Fang Xuanling quickly stopped him: "Forget it, don't say so much, hurry up and go back to the city, otherwise Mr. Wei might make some monsters."

Old Wei? Could it be Wei Zheng? What's wrong with this old man?

It is hard for Li Hao to say what he feels like to Wei Zheng. If you have to describe it, it is probably a good person who is old-fashioned and ignorant.

Whether it was the Turkish marriage or something before, this old man could basically consider the issue from the perspective of the Tang Dynasty or the people. If it were placed in the future, letting this old man become a justice is definitely the most correct choice.

But the problem is that the Tang Dynasty was not later generations. The entire Tang Dynasty, or the whole world, was owned by Li Er, and everyone in the court served Li Er. You said that you kept the people in your heart every day, and what did the Emperor think?

For some needs, Li Er may not really do anything to Lao Wei, but what if he doesn't need it?

Listening to Du Ruhui telling what happened in the palace all the way, Li Hao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Uncle Du, what's the use of calling me back when something happens? Isn't it because I want me to persuade Your Majesty to take back his life?"

"No." Du Ruhui glanced at Li Hao: "I admit that you may have such ability, but it is useless to just take back your Majesty back. Your role is to convince Wei Zheng and make him admit his mistake."

"What? Let the old Wei make the wrong one!" Li Hao stopped leaving at that time: "Uncle Du, why don't you beat me up? Old Wei doesn't like me, so you still ask me to find him? Isn't this a mouse to wish the cat a New Year?"

"Where did you get so many jokes?" Du Ruhui kicked Li Hao from the back: "Isn't this my uncle and you still have me and your room? With us here, can you suffer a loss?"

"Who knows which group you belong to?" Li Hao muttered while rubbing his butt.

"What did you say?"

Li Hao quickly changed his words and said flattery: "I said Uncle Du, you are wise and powerful, and you are as good as a god."

After some effort, Li Hao and Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling came to Wei Zheng's mansion.

The concierge knew Lao Du and Lao Fang, but did not stop them. After entering the mansion, they went straight to Lao Wei's study.

Although Wei Zheng and Li Jing were both Dukes, their house was not big, and they only entered the yard two times. Without much effort, a few people met Old Wei who was writing hard in the study.

Wei Zheng's study was very simple, with a bookshelves and a desk, a charcoal basin on the ground, and a candlestick on the desk. There were no more popular ring chairs, no boss's desk, and no Zhenguan furnace.

"Xuancheng, what are you writing?" Du Ruhui greeted him after entering the house.

"Memorial, the memorial to impeach this treacherous charlatan." Wei Zheng raised his head and said, seeing Li Hao, his nose was not the nose, his face was not the face.

If it weren't for Fang Xuanling's pulling, Li Hao would almost turn around and leave.

It’s really not a business to go on, why is it so treacherous? Is it because I have taken your child and jumped into a well or digging a corner of your house?

Du Ruhui turned around and winked Li Hao, asking him to rest assured, and then said to Wei Zheng: "Xuancheng is waiting for a moment, I'm afraid there is a misunderstanding in this matter."

"What can there be any misunderstanding? If this son hadn't been deceived, why would Your Majesty send troops to fight at this time? In the past, Han and Sui Yang were busy with military force, but the lessons of the past are still in front of him. Today, Your Majesty is going to repeat the same mistake. As a minister, how can we cherish ourselves because we are afraid of things?"

Wei Zheng said the righteousness and did not leave any face for Li Hao. If someone who didn't understand the inside story saw him, he would give him a thumbs up and say: It's a true loyal minister.

However, in Du Ruhui's eyes, who knew the whole thing, Wei Zheng seemed a little narrow-minded at this time.

Fang Xuanling also felt that Wei Zheng had passed a little, so he took a deep breath and said, "Xuancheng, this kid has been brought by us. Why don't you listen to what he said before making a conclusion?"

"Why, you were bewitched by him?" Wei Zheng stopped his pen, looked up at Li Hao, and said in a stance that he was feeding the tiger with his body: "Okay, today I want to see how you, a traitor, bewitch me."

It seems that if I don’t fool the old man today, I will definitely be the name of a treacherous person in the future.

The more I thought about it, Li Hao became more and more angry, so he simply stopped leaving and sat in front of Wei Zheng: "Old Wei, I will only ask you one thing, why am I a treacherous?"

Wei Zheng didn't mind Li Hao's name to him, and sneered: "You bewitched your father and behave in a military and silence, and ignore the people of the world."

"Okay, since that's the case, then you say, why did I ignore the people of the world? How could I bewitch Your Majesty?"

"Hmph." Wei Zheng snorted: "Li Dejian, I know your skillful ability. Since you don't admit that you bewitch Your Majesty, then I ask you, is the matter of Your Majesty planning to send troops to Baekje? "

Li Hao nodded and said, "Yes, it was indeed what I proposed to His Majesty."

Wei Zheng and Li Hao looked at each other and said in a deep voice: "Just admit it. I will ask you again, can you ask if you send troops to Baekje to ask for food and grass? Do you need arms? What if you damage the national system? "

Just this question made Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling nearby sigh and said to himself: It's over, this old Wei may not be able to escape the crime of ignoring the king's intention.

Wei Zheng waited for a while, and saw that Li Hao did not answer, he couldn't help but sarcastically said, "Why, I don't know how to explain it?"

"Oh!" Li Hao sighed and smacked his lips and said, "First of all, I want to make it clear that the navy sent troops to Baekje not by official dispatch, but in the name of pirates or mercenaries, that is, no matter whether they win or lose, they have nothing to do with the Tang Dynasty.

Secondly, the treasury does not cost a penny to send troops this time, because the money for this war was paid by the Sillas, a total of 500,000 trump cards, and the Sillas also provide food and grass.

As for the military, the Tang Dynasty still needs to make some money, but I think 500,000 jin should be enough to make up for the losses. Even if we lose all the military, we will still have a profit."

Wei Zheng, who was originally justified, was also a little confused. Send a thousand people out to fight a war, could he exchange 500,000 guan? If ten thousand people were paid, would he exchange 5 million guan?

Why didn't anyone mention this? If I had known this, I would have been so much advice.

You should know that war has always been a business that loses money, and it has been like this from ancient times to the present, otherwise Wei Zheng would not have had such a big reaction.

Now, everything has changed. If you send troops to fight without losing money, you may make a big profit, this...

Before Wei Zheng could figure it out, Li Hao continued to say: "In addition, this time the dispatch of troops was not just to rescue Silla, but also to test Silla, Baekje and Goguryeo's combat effectiveness, and this dispatch can also be regarded as a drill.

As you said, although a country is big, it will perish if it is big. However, although the world is big, it will perish if it is forgotten. Although our Tang Dynasty is not easy to fight, we must know the combat power of the surrounding countries.

Finally, what I want to say is that the most important task of the Ocean Navy is to occupy an enclave on the coastline between Baekje and Goguryeo, and then cooperate with the Three Kingdoms to jointly develop the Three Kingdoms minerals. Of course, these are all later stories, and the specific details need to be discussed slowly in the future."

Baji, in the room, three old guys blinked and were confused.

They can still understand the previous ones, but what the hell is they jointly developing together?

Du Ruhui shook his head: "Boy, my Tang Dynasty is vast and rich in resources, so why should I covet a little bit of minerals from the small country?"

"So what if the land is big and the material is vast? There is only a little thing underground. If you really want to dig, you will be digging all the time sooner or later. Today we will dig more, and the descendants will dig less in the future. Uncle Du, do you want to be poked by future generations to our backbone?"

Du Ruhui said: "This..."

Scholars in the early Tang Dynasty were not pedantic, and they were not as rich as the later generations of later generations, and should educate the world with benevolence and righteousness.

So when Du Ruhui heard Li Hao's words, he quickly felt a sense of identity, and even Wei Zheng didn't say anything.

But... things seemed to be a bit off the beaten path at this time. This kid is a treacherous minister. How could he think so much?

Seeing Wei Zheng's face turned pale for a while, and he didn't say anything for a long time, Li Hao knew that the old man had probably figured it out.

He took a deep breath and said, "Uncle Wei, I know that you have the world in your heart and cannot stand the suffering of the people. But I, Li Dejian, are also a citizen of the Tang Dynasty. While I was grateful to the emperor, I also loved this land that gave birth to me and raised me, and I also had a sincere heart to serve the country.

My greatest hope is to make the Tang Dynasty better and stronger, so that the people can eat and wear food and clothing.

You may not understand my behavior, you can treat me as a prodigal son or a playboy, but you say I am a treacherous person...

As the saying goes, thousands of people will die without success! Uncle Wei, are you really not afraid of killing a junior who has the heart to serve the country with one word?”

You cannot speak clearly without saying anything, and you cannot distinguish the truth.

Li Hao's words made Lao Wei speechless and his face turned red: "I...I..."

Du Ruhui patted Wei Zheng on the shoulder: "Okay, Xuancheng, Dejian is not easy to come by. You have seen what he has done in the past year. A portion of Du Kang wine has received nearly one million chunks of income for the national treasury. Chameng rice was also proposed by this child. You don't know how much more than 30% of the harvest every year."

Wei Zheng looked up at Lao Du and said, "Is it really... Is I wrong?"

Naturally, Li Hao would not let an old man, Lao Wei, apologize to him, and took the initiative to smooth things over and said, "No, Uncle Wei is thinking too much, right and wrong cannot be generalized. We are taking different paths, and there is nothing wrong with each other. Just say it out, right?"

Wei Zheng's black face was rarely rosy, and he tried to take two deep breaths, and sighed: "Forget it, I have lived for so many years, but in the end I almost ruined a pillar of talent. What kind of face does it have to see Your Majesty in the future? Forget it, I will submit my resignation to Your Majesty and go home with peace of mind..."
