As soon as Quan Jin said these words, Xu Da felt as if a big stone had been lifted from his heart. He had been holding back these words for too long.

"...In this way, we can also strengthen the momentum of our Northern Expedition."

Zhu Yuanzhang's brows twitched and his eyes focused deeply.

"proclaim oneself emperor?……"

This is a good question, why are we not in a hurry to become emperor now?

Xu Da, Xu Da, it’s not that we don’t want to be emperor, it’s not that we’re not ready to be emperor.

But can we make our thoughts clear to you?

proclaim oneself emperor?

What a wonderful word, but we are a little afraid of these two words.

These two words carry too many, too heavy, too heavy things.

Back then, Chen Youliang was even killed by these two words.

Otherwise we wouldn't have been able to defeat him so easily back then.

What's more, he hasn't come back yet. If he doesn't show up, we don't dare to be in a hurry to become emperor.

Although he has not returned for three years, we must wait for his return!

…

The words are divided into two parts, let’s talk about them on the other side.

At dusk, Li Shanchang and Liu Bowen were walking together, seemingly chatting, when Li Shanchang suddenly asked.

"Bowen, there is something I have been thinking about for many days, but I can't decide on it after thinking hard about it."

"I'm just waiting for you to end it."

"Oh, Brother Shan, these words crushed me to death." Liu Bowen laughed and shook his head.

Li Shanchang said bluntly:

"As far as I know, in the past few months, overtly or covertly, many people have tried to persuade the higher-ups to join me."

"Encourage him to establish a country as soon as possible and become emperor in Kaiyuan."

Liu Bowen continued to answer with a smile.

"As expected, it is certain that the commander-in-chief will become emperor. Even if you don't persuade him, he will still become emperor."

After Li Shanchang heard this, he started to look serious and said:

"But what I am hesitant about is whether I should ask the commander to persuade me to join."

Liu Bowen's brows jumped slightly. There is a trap in what he said. Li Shanchang is digging a trap for me again. Can I still say that I shouldn't persuade him to come in? Are you going to make a small report about me in front of the commander in the future?

Liu Bowen replied calmly and calmly:

"Should, absolutely should."

"Really?"

Li Shanchang didn't seem to believe it and looked at Liu Bowen's expression seriously.

Liu Bowen turned around and looked at Li Shanchang seemingly seriously:

"Of course it's true. Besides, I've also heard some extremely unserious rumors."

"What are you talking about... By the way, Li Xiangguo has already prepared the dragon robe and crown for the commander-in-chief."

Liu Bowen looked at Li Shanchang with a half-smile and asked:

"What? Brother Shanshan didn't hear about it?"

"This... oh, it's my duty to prepare things for the commander-in-chief to ascend the throne."

Li Shanchang continued:

"As for whether I should persuade the commander to join us, that's another matter."

"Yes, yes, I think both things should be done, absolutely."

"real?"

"It's true." Liu Bowen replied seriously.

Hearing this, Li Shanchang seemed to be sure of something and stood solemnly with his hands tied.

"In this case, we can't persuade people to come in lightly."

"I think it's better for all the officials to work together to persuade the commander-in-chief to advance."

When Liu Bowen heard this, he seemed to be enlightened.

"A hundred officials are urging us to come in?...Yes, Li Xiangguo will lead all the officials to persuade your Majesty to come in."

"This is in line with the way of heaven and ancient etiquette."

"Oh, look how cunning I have become. I have even forgotten the ancient rules of the prime minister leading hundreds of officials to persuade people to join." Liu Bowen said, shaking his head.

Li Shanchang felt cold inside.

Forgot? Will Liu Bowen forget such a thing? You just want to see my joke.

If I didn't understand the rules and tried to persuade someone to come in, I would be breaking a huge taboo.

Only leading hundreds of officials and gathering people to persuade people to advance is the best and only choice.

The colder his heart became, the brighter the smile appeared on Li Shanchang's face, and he laughed:

"Although Shanchang is a few years older, he is not the prime minister. Let's ask Brother Bowen to take the lead."

Liu Bowen sneered in his heart when he heard this, and was testing me again, Li Shanchang, Li Shanchang, that's all you have.

"No, no, Brother Shan is the chief minister of the palace. He is the chief and assistant minister. He respects each other and leads the country. He is the leader in promoting advancement. Brother Shan is the only one in the position."

"Bowen, you can only follow him respectfully."

"real?"

"Oh, brother Shan, why do you always tell the truth? When have I told lies in front of you?"

It is true that I have never told a lie, but it is not necessarily true that the words are incomplete. Liu Bowen sneered in his heart.

Over the years, I have long understood the temperament of our superior, and he is not easy to deal with.

After the founding of the country, when you sit on the position of prime minister, under one person and above ten thousand people, it will also be the most dangerous time. If one person does something bad in the future, it may even bring disaster to the entire clan...

If you want to go up, I will never stop you. Please go up and face the future gaze of your superiors!

Li Shanchang also seemed to notice something.

"Well, there are no lies at the moment, but the terrible thing is, listening to Brother Bowen speak, I always feel that it is difficult to distinguish between truth and lies."

Oh? Did you notice something was wrong?

It's a pity that you can only get so far. With your wisdom, you can only detect something wrong, but you don't know what is wrong.

No, it's not that you can't detect it, but that you have been confused by the power of phase and your mind has been blinded...

Liu Bowen pretended to smile bitterly and shook his head repeatedly.

"Unjust, unfair...Brother Shan's words crushed me to death, and also made me die unjustly."

Li Shanchang smiled and even said proudly:

"It's really a pleasure to be able to call out your injustice."

"Where's Bowen?"

"Here." Liu Bowen bowed his head in response, but his heart was sneering. Let you be proud for now, let's see how long you can be proud.

"We have to be mentally prepared."

"Yes, you should definitely be prepared."

Liu Bowen was like a younger brother, half a body behind Li Shan. He suddenly felt that he had overlooked something. At this time, a figure flashed across his mind, making his heart skip a beat.

By the way, he, the man who has not returned for three years!

At this time, he suddenly understood why the superior had been reluctant to proclaim himself emperor!

Because that person hasn’t appeared yet!

…

"Brother! Over the years you have always pushed back and forth on becoming emperor!"

"In the past, we understood that you were afraid that the big tree would attract the wind and attract the attention of the rebels all over the world."

"But now, you can't push it anymore, because you just need to raise your troops to march north."

"The Yuan Dynasty is bound to fail, and the world cannot live without a king, right?"

"One more thing, brothers are very impatient, they are all looking forward to the founding of the country."
