"Sixth brother, I heard that the third brother has returned from Rome, and first hurried to find you, and then you hurried to find us. Has something happened?" As soon as I arrived at the palace, Li Zhen, who was impatient, immediately spoke.

"That's right, there is something, and it's a very important urgent matter. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to you personally to discuss it!" Li Yan said, and then talked about Li Ke's experience in Rome, and also focused on Li Ke's plan to gain a foothold in the Iberian Peninsula.

"Ba~" Li Zhen slapped her thighs and said, "The third brother is worthy of being the third brother. Yanfu really has her wherever she goes. If I had known, I would have gone to Rome first!"

As a brother, Li Zhen's reaction was exactly the same as Li Yan at the beginning. However, Li Yan was embarrassed to say it in front of Li Ke. And at this time, Li Yan pretended to be righteous and said: "The third brother can seduce the Queen of Rome not only because he is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, but because of his own charm. However, if it were the eighth brother, I guess the Roman emperor would be more interested in you. I heard that the other party likes strong and mighty soldiers the most."

The more mature Li Yun immediately laughed when he heard Li Yan's words, and sprinkled all over the tea in his right hand. After a while, he said angrily: "The sixth brother is a good suggestion. The third brother seduced someone's wife, and the eighth brother seduced the Roman emperor himself. By then, everyone is a family, so if you have anything to say, you can talk to the bed!"

Looking at his two unscrupulous brothers, Li Zhen gave them anger a look. He was a normal man, and he had always had a deep relationship with Wu Meiniang. Even after getting married for so long, in his harem, except for the queen Wu Meiniang, there were only two geniuses in his original palace. Now he has been promoted to the imperial concubine, and there are no other women besides the three of them. He is even stronger than Li Yan.

The three brothers joked for a while, and then the topic was pulled to Li Ke again. Li Zhen waved his hand and said, "Sixth brother, just say it straight, the third brother is not an outsider. If we need any help, just mention it. Even if we send troops to directly attack the Suez Canal, there is no problem, but I can't guarantee that I can defeat the cannibal, unless you transfer your firearm troops to me tens of thousands!"

Li Zhen looked reckless, but in fact he was an extremely smart person. Li Yan only mentioned Li Ke's attempt to establish a country in the Mediterranean. He immediately realized that the key was the Suez Canal controlled by the cannibals, and probably understood the reason why Li Yan came to find them. Although he knew that it was troublesome to solve this matter, he still agreed without hesitation.

"Go, I'll have tens of thousands. There are only a few firearm troops in my hand. If I transfer all of them to you, what should I do? And now it's not the time to go to war with the Great Cannibal. We can just use some means to make the Great Cannibal surrender!" Li Zhen said with a blank look. At the end of the day, he had the unique smile of calculating people on his face.

Li Zhen and Li Yun's eyes lit up when they heard this. They leaned out almost at the same time and asked Li Yan: "Sixth Brother, do you have any other good solutions?"

Li Yan calmly tasted the tea, and then said, "Seventh brother, eighth brother. Tell me honestly, how much strength you have accumulated in your hands now? Are you sure to take down Northern Tianzhu in one fell swoop?"

Li Zhen and Li Yun were stunned after hearing this, and were about to ask why, but they were interrupted by Li Yan and said, "Don't ask me why I asked this question, just answer me!"

This made Li Zhen and Li Yun a little confused. However, Li Zhen finally replied: "Sixth brother, since you have asked this, I won't hide it from you. Now our military strength is enough, but there are still some shortcomings in war reserves, such as food and weapons, there are certain gaps. Therefore, Brother Seven is now working hard to develop the economy, preparing to wait until he has a certain amount of savings and then take over the entire Northern Heavenly Kingdom in one fell swoop."

After hearing this, Li Yan pondered for a while, and finally suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Zhen and said, "Eighth brother, if you have sufficient supplies, then how long can you take down the entire Northern India as soon as possible?"

Hearing this, Li Zhen and Li Yun had already realized something. At that moment, Li Zhen also said excitedly: "Although the area of ​​Northern India is larger, because we have taken down Central India and Southern India, the military strength in our hands has been greatly improved. In addition, the endless wars between the small countries of Northern India and the promotion of our new Brahminism have caused many people in Northern India to secretly surrender to us, so I can guarantee that the entire Northern India can be captured within three months!"

"Okay, my eighth brother is worthy of being the best at war among our brothers. How much more supplies do you need? Seventh brother, please make a list for me and I will send someone to come here as fast as possible, but I need you to take down the entire Indian as soon as possible!" Li Yan said without hesitation.

This made Li Zhen and Li Yun very happy, and Li Yun even sighed: "You are still rich and powerful. Although we established a country almost at the same time, in terms of true strength, whether it is the Tang Dynasty of Father or the Great Qi of Sixth Brother, you are not comparable to our Tianzhu."

However, after being happy, Li Zhen asked Li Yan with some confusion: "Sixth Brother, aren't we going to help the third brother? What does this have to do with whether we fight against Northern Tianzhu?"

After hearing this, Li Yan smiled and told Dashi's weaknesses, and finally concluded: "In the current situation, as long as we do not force Dashi to a dead end, they will never dare to go to war with us. The way Dashi advanced east was blocked by his father. In addition to developing westward, they were also developing southward. Now their tentacles have reached the northern border of India, and even have the intention of interfering in Northern India. So now I need you to take down Northern India with a thunderous force and give the Great Cannibal a blow!"

Hearing Li Yan say this, Li Zhen said suddenly: "I understand, Brother Six, you want Dashi to feel the threat from our Tianzhu to them. Even after occupying Northern Tianzhu, we can still attack Dashi's border and make an attitude of attacking Dashi, so that they can feel the dual pressure of the Tang Dynasty and Tianzhu at the same time!"

"Hehe, my eighth brother said it right, but the border between the formation soldiers is far from enough. We need to be more proactive and make Dashi feel a greater threat!" When Li Yan said the last, the smile on his face became even more sinister.

Just as Li Yan and Li Zhen and Li Yun discussed together, Li Ke had already arrived in Chang'an and met Li Shimin in Liangyi Hall. Then he confessed to Li Shimin all the things he planned to establish a country overseas and even the location had been chosen, and then looked at his thoughtful father with a nervous look on his face.

Li Shimin, who had just celebrated his fifty birthday, is obviously older than before. Although he still looks heroic, the white hair on his temples and the wrinkles on his forehead still tell Li Ke that his once-popular father is entering his old age. He even took pills before, hoping to keep his energy. Fortunately, the admonitions of Li Yan and others played a role, otherwise it might cause more serious consequences.

"Sanlang, have you really decided?" Li Shimin, who was thinking, suddenly raised his head and looked at his son calmly. However, in his calm eyes, there was a very complicated feeling, as if he was relieved and reluctant.

For Li Shimin, watching his sons walk out of the Tang Dynasty one by one and conquer his own empire overseas, Li Shimin felt very pleased. Although there are incompetent sons like Li You, there are also promising sons like Li Yan, Li Zhen and Li Yun. However, as he gets older, he pays more and more attention to the feelings between his children and grandchildren. However, Li Yan and the other three are far away overseas, and even their children rarely return to Chang'an, which makes Li Shimin often miss him. Now even Li Ke is going overseas, and to the Mediterranean, which is farther away, which makes Li Shimin naturally feel a little reluctant.

When Li Ke and Li Shimin's eyes met, they felt the feelings in their father's eyes, and they couldn't help but tremble. However, he was also a person with a firm mind. He quickly calmed down and knelt down and said, "I believe that my father is so arrogant, but I watched my sixth brother and others establish a country overseas. My brother can only stay under the wings of my father. This makes me feel really uncomfortable in my heart, so I hope my father can fulfill my son's heart!"

Li Shimin looked at Li Ke who lowered his head and knelt in front of him. His expression on his face became more complicated, but in the end, rationality overcame feelings. After sighing, the emperor's firmness finally appeared on his face, and he said majestic: "Okay, Ke'er, since you have such ambition, then the father will not stop him anymore. Now tell me the plan you discussed with Liulang!"

Li Ke also looked up at his father with a complicated expression, and then slowly explained the situation in the Mediterranean and the two prerequisites that need to be solved, namely the population and transportation issues. Finally, he begged Li Shimin, hoping that Li Shimin could help him recruit some people and move to the Mediterranean with him. At that time, he would provide these people with the best conditions.

After hearing this, Li Shimin thought about it, then said, "I will try my best to recruit you for the population matter, but you know the situation in the Tang Dynasty now. I guess there may not be many Han people. However, the population of the northern grasslands is growing too fast. At that time, I can order the migration of some small tribes to follow you. As for the transportation issue, how do you and Liulang plan to force the Dashi to submit?"
