After Songtsen Gampo's incident, Li Shimin's confidence rose to the highest level. Now the Tang Dynasty was the only strong man in the entire continent.
Other countries can only serve as vassals.
Li Shimin therefore gave the people a three-day holiday and ordered the world to celebrate the greatness of the Tang Dynasty.
But that day, Fang Xuanling came to see Li Shimin.
Because what Li Shimin has done recently makes Fang Xuanling feel a little incredible.
He entered the palace and saw Li Shimin. At this time, Li Shimin was playing games with his concubines, drinking wine, and was very happy.
The concubines also praised him in various ways.
Li Shimin became more and more drunk as he drank, because this was the satisfaction he had never experienced before.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing?" Fang Xuanling asked when he saw Li Shimin looking like this.
"Come on, come on, Fang Xuanling, come and have a drink with me." Li Shimin looked particularly happy.
"Your Majesty, don't drink any more. You haven't dealt with state affairs in the past few days, and now the papers have piled up like a mountain." Fang Xuanling said immediately.
"There are six departments here, what are you afraid of? All this has been done by the six departments!"
"His Majesty!"
"My beloved concubines, do you think my Tang Dynasty is the strongest dynasty?" Li Shimin asked the concubines, a little drunk.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The concubines said.
"Did you hear, Fang Xuanling, that my Tang Dynasty is the strongest dynasty. Even if it does not develop now, it will take decades or even hundreds of years for other countries to catch up, so this is nothing.
"
Li Shimin looked very proud.
But Fang Xuanling didn't think so.
"Your Majesty, you should be prepared for danger in times of peace. Although the Tang Dynasty is number one in the world now, who can guarantee it in the future?"
"Fang Xuanling, don't throw cold water on me. Are you asking whether it will take them decades to catch up with the Tang Dynasty?" Li Shimin said nonchalantly.
This made Fang Xuanling not know how to persuade Li Shimin.
"Your Majesty, this is all because of the Shengtang Group. If the Shengtang Group stops developing, then the Tang Dynasty will still have to look to your Majesty!"
Fang Xuanling's words directly awakened Li Shimin.
At this time, Li Shimin had not reconciled with Li Min.
The future of Shengtang Group is unknown.
If we just indulge like this, one day Shengtang Group will really stop developing, and what will Datang eat?
Can Datang still remain advanced?
When he said this, Li Shimin fell silent.
He immediately thought of Li Min.
"When will that kid return to Chang'an?" Li Shimin asked again.
Only then did he remember that he wanted to reconcile with Li Min.
So I asked.
No one at the scene knew when Li Min would return.
Even Di Renjie doesn't know.
Even Li Min himself didn't know what he wanted back.
At this time, Li Shimin was half awake.
Because the momentary victory made him dizzy.
This is fatal.
If it can't be done well, it may even lose Datang's early advantage. Obviously, this is not in line with what Li Shimin expected.
"Come here, go find out when that boy will be back and ask Concubine Yang to come over!" Li Shimin thought of Concubine Yang again.
"Your Majesty, why don't you take the initiative?" Fang Xuanling proposed another solution at this time.
Yes, wouldn't things be simpler if Li Shimin himself appeared to talk to Li Min?
Why does it need to be so troublesome?
There is no need to ask when Li Min will come back.
As long as he admits his mistake, the entire Shengtang Group will be under his control.
Why didn't Li Shimin think of such a good thing?
Li Shimin also realized this.
"You all please step aside, Fang Xuanling stays!"
"Yes!" The concubines immediately left the hall.
There were only two people at the scene, Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling.
"Fang Xuanling, what do you think I should say to him?" Li Shimin said softly at this time.
In recent years, Li Min has changed many of Li Shimin's views.
It makes him feel that face is not as important as strength at all.
As long as you have the strength and can acquire the Shengtang Group, what does face mean?
"Your Majesty, I don't know this, and I have never done anything like this. It's up to you!" Fang Xuanling said again.
"Forget it, asking you is in vain, let me think about it," Li Shimin said.
Then he thought for a long time.
Then he said: "Okay, I have thought of what to say. Is this the guy's phone number?"
Li Shimin showed Li Min's number and asked.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Fang Xuanling quickly said yes.
"Okay, I'll fight!"
Li Shimin finally put aside his prejudice and wanted to make this call with Li Min.
After many years, he finally figured it out.
Fang Xuanling was also very pleased that Li Shimin could think about this.
"Then please fight, Your Majesty."
"good!"
So, Li Shimin dialed Li Min's number.
A beeping sound came from the other end of the phone.
a sound
twice
three times
…
Li Shimin's palms were covered in sweat. He had never been so nervous as he was today.
But after it rang a dozen times, no one answered the phone.
"That boy, how dare you not answer my call."
Li Shimin was a little angry.
He finally changed and took the initiative to call Li Min, but Li Min didn't answer the call.
How did he know that it was three or four o'clock in the morning where Li Min was now, and everyone was sleeping at this time, so how could he answer his call?
Fang Xuanling added: "Maybe he is busy, otherwise he will hit me again!?"
"Okay, I'll call again. If he doesn't answer, it's not because I don't work hard, but because he doesn't want to reconcile." Li Shimin said like a child.
So, he dialed Li Min's number again.
But this time it was the same as last time, no one picked up the phone at all.
Li Shimin was very angry.
"What's going on? I contacted him so shamelessly, and he dared not answer my call?"
Li Shimin didn't understand why Li Min didn't answer the phone.
Fang Xuanling picked up her cell phone and dialed Li Min's number.
But after more than ten calls, it still showed no one answered.
"Your Majesty, maybe the Sixth Prince is busy. He has to deal with so many things in a day. It is normal to be a little busy, so he did not answer the phone. This is normal."
Hearing what Fang Xuanling said, Li Shimin seemed to be a little less angry.
"Okay, let's fight later."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The mood that Li Shimin finally built up was shattered.
All this was caused by Li Min not answering his phone calls.
"Otherwise, let's try again at night? Maybe he will be free by then?" Fang Xuanling added.
"Okay, let's try again tonight."
Li Shimin had no choice but to follow Fang Xuanling's suggestion.
"Then I will go down first."
Fang Xuanling said that he then wanted to leave.
But at this time, Li Shimin's phone rang.
Fang Xuanling directly settled there.
He stared at Li Shimin's mobile phone.
This could be the reconciliation of the century.
He held his breath and listened.
Li Shimin also answered the phone.
"who?"
His tone was always condescending.
A young voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Did you call this number?"
"It's me!!" Li Shimin said. Fang Xuanling was about to cry. Why was Li Shimin's tone so harsh?
What are you doing well?
That's not a good way to reconcile.
But Li Shimin was used to feeling superior, so it was a bit difficult for him to change.
At the same time, Li Shimin also heard this voice, which was a little different from Li Min's voice, but he couldn't tell what the difference was.
"It turns out to be Your Majesty, what's the matter? By the way, I'm Di Renjie!"
It turned out that it was Di Renjie who called back.
Li Shimin must be embarrassed to say that he wanted to call Li Min.
Because that would be too shameful.
So he told a lie.
"It's nothing. I looked at the unfamiliar number on my phone, so I called it. I didn't expect it to be yours," Li Shimin said.
"Oh, this number turned out to be your husband's, and he later gave it to me. Do you have something to do with your husband?" Di Renjie asked.
Li Shimin is very face-saving.
"It's okay, don't think too much." Li Shimin said.
Fang Xuanling was about to faint. Why did Li Shimin say such a thing?
Didn’t you say you were looking for Li Min?
Now ask Di Renjie and Li Min's number. Quickly, what is he doing?
He was really anxious on the side.
Li Shimin was also anxious.
He doesn't want this either.
But what can he do?
He wanted to end this awkward conversation.
So he said: "Okay, nothing happens anymore, hang up."
So without waiting for Di Renjie to say anything, he hung up the phone directly.
Di Renjie didn't say much.
Fang Xuanling was very puzzled.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
"I can't say it." Li Shimin sighed.
Yes, he couldn't say it. It was a matter of face. His face was so precious now. How could he lower his head with Li Min?
There was nothing Fang Xuanling could do against him.
In this case, Fang Xuanling doesn't care anymore.
"Well, Your Majesty, I still have something to do, so please leave first."
He didn't want to help Li Shimin anymore.
He has to do this himself.
Moreover, he also advised Li Shimin not to be so addicted anymore, and Li Shimin also listened.
Even if he admits his mistake, he has never been able to bring himself to do it.
Just now was actually a good opportunity to let Di Renjie and Li Min talk about it.
"Wait, don't leave!" Li Shimin stopped Fang Xuanling from leaving.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
"Tell me, if I let Di Renjie talk to that kid, would it be faster?"
"Yes, but you... don't seem to be able to say it."
"As long as I know how to do it, let me do some mental construction again. I don't want to think about this now."
Just now, Li Shimin wanted to die.
"If your Majesty needs anything, please let me enter the palace directly. I still have some things to deal with, so I will leave first."
"Wait!" Li Shimin stopped Fang Xuanling again.
"Your Majesty, what's the matter?"
"You stay here for a while, don't leave so quickly!"
Now Li Shimin really wants someone to answer his questions, and Fang Xuanling is undoubtedly a good candidate.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
But Fang Xuanling always felt that Li Shimin was not brave enough.
I have never dared to take that step.
In the past, when the Shengtang Group was still small, he might have made the Shengtang Group admit its mistakes. Now the Shengtang Group is too big. More than half of Datang's economy is affected by the Shengtang Group. If the Shengtang Group disappears, what will happen to the Shengtang Group?
For Tang Li, it was a huge loss.
"You said I..."
Next, Li Shimin took Fang Xuanling and chatted for a long time until the evening, but did not let Fang Xuanling leave.
But no matter what Fang Xuanling said, Li Shimin never called again.
It seems that Li Shimin will not make this call again in a short time.
As for Di Renjie, when Li Shimin called, he had already told Li Min about Li Shimin.
And asked Li Min: "Sir, what's next? Your Majesty actually took the initiative to find you!"
"It's okay. When I get a call from him in the future, just tell him that I'm very busy. I don't have time to care about the emperor."
Li Min understood what Li Shimin wanted to do.
He just wants his own Shengtang Group.
But I was too embarrassed to speak.
If you want to prosper the Tang Group, you have to admit your mistakes, but you can't admit your mistakes so quickly, especially the king of a country.
Even if Li Shimin has thought about it, admitting his mistake can bring a lot of benefits.
But once more people know that he made a mistake, he may be made fun of.
Therefore, Li Shimin never dared to admit his mistake.
Now Li Min also knows what he wants to do and blocks the road directly. Let's see how Li Shimin responds.
Di Renjie accepted the order.
"I understand. I just said that your Majesty is acting weird. He seems to have something to say but can't say it out. He probably wants to take advantage of the Shengtang Group."
"Then let him take his time and let's just do our thing!"
"Yes, sir." Di Renjie said.
"By the way, Di Renjie."
"Sir, I'm here."
"How is the situation at Wei Zheng's place?"
"He learns quickly, but the handover is a lot more than I expected, so it may take a little longer."
Di Renjie has been managing Shengtang Group for a long time, and some things can be handed over in a day or two.
Di Renjie added: "Wei Zheng is really a genius. He made many very good suggestions. When we improved, the efficiency improved a lot."
Wei Zheng is a very capable person.
The advice given by nature is the best.
"Of course, there is a certain reason why he is so popular in front of the emperor. Teach him well and try to get him started quickly."
"Yes, sir, don't worry, I will definitely do it!"
Di Renjie promised.
"Is there anything else?"
"When will sir come back?" Di Renjie asked again.
"Wait until you finish handing over, then you will come with me to Dongzhou. There are still many things to deal with in Dongzhou, and I can't leave yet."
Now Dongzhou has developed four areas, these four areas are very advanced, and the others are still under development.
People from the Shengtang Group got along very well with the people there. Since there was no political power, there was no killing.
Everyone is very kind.
But if someone dared to establish political power, Li Min would be the first to disagree.
This is a paradise that cannot be tainted by politics.
"I know, so I also want to help you, sir. I believe that with me, Dongzhou will develop faster."
This is indeed the case, after all, Li Min's time alone is limited.
But there are a lot of things to deal with every day, so if Di Renjie is with us, things will only become simpler and simpler.
"Okay, contact me if you need anything. I'm going to get busy now."
