Queen Changsun asked again: "Then, shall we still celebrate the New Year?"
Yes, if something like this happened, would it continue that year?
"Why don't you celebrate the New Year? Things happened and I asked people to do it. But this year still has to be celebrated, and I still want to bless you!"
Li Shimin said.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
As for Li Min at this time, he issued a few more orders, and the entire Shengtang Group got into action. He also hoped that the demand for fireworks in the future would simply increase, rather than being done intentionally.
But in fact, this is not the case.
There is a force secretly affecting Chang'an and the Tang Dynasty.
This force is expected to cause destruction.
Destroy the stability of the Tang Dynasty. That's why Li Min is so anxious.
Without the stability of Datang, your Shengtang Group would be worthless.
Moreover, there are people in the Tang Dynasty that he cares about.
We can't let Datang change suddenly.
This will be a fatal blow to Li Min.
Therefore, he paid great attention to it this time.
Let the entire Shengtang Group take action.
We must find those people no matter what.
And orders were issued one after another.
Shengtang Group is secretly carrying out elimination.
A large amount of news reached Wei Zheng, who then screened it.
Finally, some relevant people and things were selected.
But specific screening will continue.
The same thing happened here with Li Shimin. Cheng Yaojin didn't even care about celebrating the New Year. He directly participated in it with all the soldiers.
This went on until the next morning.
People in the entire Tang Dynasty started to move.
Why it takes so long is because it is still Chinese New Year time, so mobilizing troops will be slower and can usually be completed in a few hours.
But it's different now.
At this time, the people in Chang'an City did not know what happened, and they were still celebrating.
…
Until the afternoon of the next day.
Cheng Yaojin returned to the palace.
At this time, Li Shimin also didn't sleep all night.
The first reason is New Year's Eve, and the second reason is because such a big thing has happened, how can I sleep well?
Cheng Yaojin walked to the palace, and he was very tired at this time.
Because I didn't sleep at all last night.
Still running everywhere.
This is a huge burden for him.
But Cheng Yaojin didn't feel tired.
I feel full of energy, as if I have been injected with chicken blood.
Cheng Yaojin walked up to Li Shimin.
"Your Majesty, I was on guard all night yesterday and found some suspicious characters! Now they have been arrested and brought to justice."
"What kind of person is he?"
"Some merchants, merchants of the Gentiles."
"Which country is it from?" Li Shimin asked again.
"The majority are from Tubo, and there are also some from other countries."
"Tubo? How much did they buy?"
"We checked and bought about 100,000 boxes! We intercepted them five hundred miles away from Chang'an City."
"One hundred thousand boxes?"
"yes!"
"Have you ever asked how harmful these 100,000 boxes are?"
"There are about 200,000 kilograms of gunpowder! If you put them all together, it would be quite powerful!"
"Oh? Then you have to ask, what are they doing with these things?"
"When I asked, they said they needed fireworks for the celebration and there were no others."
"Celebrate, what do the Tubo people celebrate?"
Li Shimin said he didn't understand.
"I don't understand, but as far as I know, Tubo people generally don't use these things for celebrations."
"So, Tubo is very suspicious."
"Yes, but there are still some scattered details that are still being counted. And this is only near Chang'an. It needs to be combined with the final data of Shengtang Group."
"So how is the situation at Shengtang Group? They should have more solutions."
Li Shimin asked.
Yes, Shengtang Group has more methods and is more flexible.
As long as Li Min gives an order, he can quickly find out who made the purchase.
Also, if his transportation is cut off, it will be very difficult to leave Datang.
"This minister is still asking them for it."
"Okay, there's no need to ask, I'll let the queen ask!"
Li Shimin said immediately.
Anyway, Empress Changsun still wants to find Li Min.
It would be better to let Empress Changsun ask directly.
How could Cheng Yaojin not know what he was thinking?
Since Li Shimin has decided so, then the matter is settled.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Okay, you listen on the side. Someone comes! Let the queen come!" Li Shimin ordered.
Queen Changsun soon arrived outside Taiji Palace.
She entered the palace.
As soon as he arrived at the palace, he walked to Li Shimin's side.
"Your Majesty, are you looking for a concubine?"
"Call Li Min and ask him what the specific situation is!"
Li Shimin said directly.
Queen Changsun was not given a chance to make a decision at all.
"now?"
"Yes, that's right now. Now I've asked Zhijie to check. Currently, the Tubo people buy the most! If the ones there are the same, then this matter is not over!" Li Shimin said.
If it was really Tubo, then Li Shimin might send troops to attack Tubo.
With the current strength of the Tang Dynasty, attacking Tibet was simply too easy.
Songtsen Gampo might surrender directly as soon as he receives news of the attack.
Because the current battle against Tibet is an unequal battle.
But what if it’s not Tubo?
If it's someone else, then this is easy.
Therefore, it is best to ask Li Min about all this.
"Be quick, ask quickly, and then you can have time to respond."
Li Shimin said.
"clear!"
After Queen Changsun finished speaking, she picked up the phone and dialed Li Min's number.
Soon, Li Min answered the phone.
"Auntie, what's the matter?"
It was quiet on the other end of the phone.
Because it was still night time in Dongzhou at this time.
So everything is quiet.
"My child, I have something to ask you."
"You say!"
"Has there been any result now about what you said yesterday?" Queen Changsun asked.
Regarding that matter, Li Min has preliminary results here.
"Yes, there are some results."
Li Min said.
At this time, Li Shimin was a little anxious.
He motioned to Queen Changsun to ask quickly.
"What's the result?"
"There are two countries that buy more fireworks."
"Which two?"
"The first one is Tubo, and the second one is Li Chengqian! Li Chengqian bought the most, about one million boxes!"
As soon as Li Min's words came out, Li Shimin was not calm anymore.
One million boxes is really too scary.
"What? Is it Gan'er?" Queen Changsun couldn't believe this was true.
But she had to believe it was true.
But so what.
Li Shimin was a little angry.
Because it's Li Chengqian again, why does Li Chengqian do this and that every day? It makes people uneasy.
What on earth does this guy want to do?
He wanted to ask.
But Queen Changsun was already confused at this time.
How to ask.
It's a bit strange no matter how you ask.
Now she has been protecting Li Chengqian.
Even if Li Chengqian is not around.
Queen Changsun couldn't believe this was true.
So, she asked: "Is this news true? Is there a possibility that there is some misunderstanding in it?"
Empress Changsun really didn't want to believe that this was true.
But it was impossible for Li Min to give her false news.
Then Li Min said: "Madam, this news cannot be false, because every firework we sell has a unique mark. Who bought these things? We have all registered them. Li Chengqian once and Sheng The Tang Group had been trading for a period of time. This time he used his internal personnel to purchase these fireworks from the Shengtang Group. We followed the entire clue and were very tolerant and found out. All of this was done by Li Chengqian .Also, these things are to be transported to the south. Xunli is where Li Chengqian’s new base is. Nanzhou! Some of them have already been transported there. We have no way to intercept those fireworks! Now it may become an unforeseen situation. danger!"
When Li Min said this, Empress Changsun felt bad. She didn't want to believe it was true.
She has been thinking, what if there is any misunderstanding in this?
"Really? Is there no other possibility?" Queen Changsun said again.
"Aunt! Since we dare to say this, there must be solid evidence. Although I don't know why he bought so many fireworks? But he dared to do this. He must have some idea. This idea may be very dangerous. of."
At this time, Queen Changsun stopped talking.
Instead, he looked at Li Shimin.
Li Shimin didn't speak either.
At this time, Li Min asked again: "If nothing happens, then I will hang up first."
"Wait! I have one more thing."
"What's the matter? Madam, tell me."
"If you find out more precise information, I hope you can tell me in advance."
Empress Changsun was still very concerned about Li Chengqian's affairs.
"No problem! Don't worry about this. If I collect any information here, I will tell you."
"Okay, then this is how it goes!"
Finally, Li Min hung up the phone.
When Li Min hung up the phone, Li Shimin's whole expression turned tense.
Because at this time, Li Shimin somewhat blamed Empress Changsun for not being optimistic about her son.
Let him do evil.
This made him very angry.
"Look at the good son you gave birth to. What does he want to do? Does he want my world? This kid makes people very worried. Call him quickly and ask him what he wants to do."
Li Shimin said again.
"Your Majesty, this..."
Empress Changsun did not dare to ask him face to face for fear of making Li Shimin angry again.
If Li Shimin gets angry again, he doesn't know what to do.
Therefore, Empress Changsun did not want to call Li Chengqian now.
But Li Shimin is here, how could he not fight?
So, Li Shimin said again: "Fight, fight quickly, I want to hear what that kid has to say!"
"His Majesty!"
"Hurry up!" Li Shimin roared.
What time has it been now and Empress Changsun is still like this, which makes Li Shimin very depressed.
He was also very angry at the same time.
Empress Changsun had no choice but to pick up the phone.
Then he dialed Li Chengqian’s number.
After a while, the phone call came through.
Li Chengqian's voice came from over there.
"Mom, are you looking for me?"
"Qian'er! Let me ask you something."
Queen Changsun said.
"What's going on? Today seems to be the first day of the Lunar New Year. I drank too much yesterday and forgot to give my mother a New Year's greeting!" Li Chengqian said.
Li Shimin didn't take it seriously. This kid would only say this. If he really meant it, he would definitely pay New Year's greetings. How could it be like this?
"Kid, that's not important. Let me ask you, what do you want to do with so many fireworks?"
Queen Changsun asked.
Li Chengqian paused for a few seconds.
Then he said: "Mom, I bought fireworks because of course I wanted to see them bloom. What's wrong? Does anyone think someone wants to do something bad?"
"Then there's no need to buy so much, right?" Queen Changsun asked.
"Is it a lot? Not much, just a few million boxes."
Li Chengqian added that it was obvious that he had no regrets at all.
"Millions of boxes, that's a lot!"
Queen Changsun's voice became a little louder.
"If Shengtang Group dares to sell, I will naturally dare to buy. What's the point?"
"You bought it during the Chinese New Year, right?" Queen Changsun asked.
"So what? They don't sell them normally. So what if they buy them during the Chinese New Year?"
If it were normal times, Shengtang Group would not sell them these things, but now is the Chinese New Year, so Shengtang Group will sell them.
If there are one million boxes, if there are one million people buying it, it will be one box per person.
What's more, it's not just one box per person. Sometimes, one person can buy hundreds of boxes, or even more. Take Li Shimin as an example, he bought a lot.
And these fireworks can only be sold during the Chinese New Year. If they usually buy so many, Shengtang Group will not sell them.
"My child, tell me, do you want to do harm to the Tang Dynasty?" Queen Changsun said again.
"Mother, you are thinking too much. How could I be harmful to Datang? I am in Nanzhou now. Do you know how far it is from Datang? It will take me more than ten days just to spend time on the road.
Time, I was stupid to do that."
Li Chengqian said this.
That said, it seems to make some sense.
"you……"
"Did the emperor ask you to ask? I know he must be by your side!"
Li Chengqian said he was blind again.
By this time Li Shimin was already furious.
"Boy, if you say it again, believe it or not, I will slap you!"
"Emperor, you don't know where you are, do you? You still want to hit me? It's so beautiful."
Li Chengqian said nonchalantly.
"Boy, remember this for me."
"I remember, you will be old in the future, and I am in my prime. When you die, I will definitely remember you!" When Li Chengqian said this, he felt like he was going to piss Li Shimin to death.
"Boy, I have to kill you!"
"Come on, come on, I'm waiting for you to kill!"
Li Chengqian would not give in at all, and he had no obligation to coddle Li Shimin.
Li Shimin was only the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, not his own emperor. He was not afraid at all and had nothing to fear at all.
"You, boy, are very, very good!"
"Of course I'm good, what? Are you not good?"
"I!"
Li Shimin almost spit out blood.
Li Chengqian is so arrogant, he talks to himself like this, which is really irritating.
