Chapter 241 Encirclement and Suppression of Su Chen
After a while, Taiji Palace arrived. Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng were about to get up and leave, but they heard His Majesty Li Er say: "Don't go back in a hurry, come with me to the imperial study. I have something that I need to hear your opinions on."
Hearing this, both of them were stunned.
Now that the situation in the Tang Dynasty is very good and no difficulties have been encountered, why does Your Majesty still have anything to discuss?
Although they were very confused, the two of them nodded in agreement.
Royal study room.
His Majesty Li Er called his servants to serve hot tea, and the monarch and his ministers sat facing each other.
"I am ready to reveal my identity to Su Chen."
His Majesty Li Er got straight to the point: "The time is set after the Chinese diplomatic mission leaves. What do you think of this?"
Upon hearing this, Changsun Wuji hesitated for a moment, then quickly asked: "What do you plan to do, Your Majesty?"
His Majesty Li Er thought for a moment and said: "I'm going to find an excuse. I'm going to call Su Chen to his house in Chang'an, saying that I'm discussing Li Zhi's marriage. Then I will order the Qianniu Guards and Jinwu Guards to dispatch all the troops.
Chang'an City is blocked!"
"After that, I'll have an open chat with him about the matter, explain the reward clearly, and see what the boy's attitude is."
Upon hearing this, both Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng fell into a state of confusion.
The Qianniu Guards and the Jinwu Guards are the imperial troops guarding Chang'an City. Chang'an has always been peaceful over the years, so they have never been mobilized on a large scale.
The entire army was mobilized, that was nearly 200,000 troops!
Just for this conversation?!
Wei Zheng hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, is this arrangement a bit too much?"
"Mobilize all the Qianniu Guards and Jinwu Guards to seal the city. The movement will definitely not be small. I feel that it is not necessary."
Although Changsun Wuji did not speak, his eyes also revealed the same meaning.
After hearing this, His Majesty Li Er shook his head very decisively and said: "This is not making a fuss. I know that little bastard too well. If I don't block all his escape routes, I won't worry!"
"Sending out the imperial army to seal the city is only the first step. I also need to bring the queen, Li Zhi and Si Zi with me!"
"Also, the courtyard in Chang'an City must be strictly guarded against death!"
…
After listening to His Majesty Li Er's detailed plan, Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng stood blankly on the spot, their faces full of confusion!
Two hundred thousand forbidden troops are to be dispatched to encircle and suppress Su Chen?!
The two people looked at each other and swallowed in unison!
Your Majesty, this is too exaggerated!
This treatment is much higher than the war with the Western Turks!
His Majesty Li Er ignored the two confused people.
After finishing speaking, he happily picked up the tea cup and started drinking it. While drinking, he said, "The tea drinking method developed by this guy Su Chen is really good."
"This tea still has the most mellow flavor as it is, but with the addition of spiced suet, it has become inferior."
Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng had no intention of discussing the tea issue with him, and frowned as they pondered what His Majesty Li Er had just said.
The main reason why they didn't understand was because they didn't understand the importance of this matter in His Majesty Li Er's heart.
For His Majesty Li Er, this negotiation with Su Chen is a major event related to the fate of the country!
It can even be said that since he came to the throne, nothing has been more important than this!
The Protector of the Tang Dynasty was not named casually!
With Su Chen's ability, he can really protect the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty for thousands of years!
Throughout history, no one can be found who can be compared with Su Chen!
Even His Majesty Li Er felt that Su Chen was more important to Datang than himself!
Therefore, he must do this matter without leakage.
He and Su Chen have known each other for a long time.
Logically speaking, if Su Chen knew his true identity, he would not be as resistant as before.
But this is just his expectation. Before things are settled, he cannot be careless at all and must make the most adequate preparations!
Under multiple insurances, even if Su Chen didn't agree, he wouldn't be able to run away immediately.
As long as Su Chen is stabilized first, everything will be easy.
Later, he would just let his two precious daughters step in and negotiate the terms on his behalf.
After a while, Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng calmed down.
Wei Zheng said dryly: "Your Majesty, isn't this a little too much?"
"It's just a matter of discussing with Su Chen. We won't seal Chang'an City."
His Majesty Li Er shook his head very decisively and said: "Where has this been?"
"My arrangement is the safest!"
"You have known Su Chen for a while, so you should know what he is capable of."
"What if Chang'an City is not completely sealed off and he runs away immediately after hearing the news?"
"With that kid's ability, if he really runs away, I'm afraid I will never find him again. Maybe he will really find a place to live in seclusion in the mountains!"
Hearing this, Wei Zheng suddenly felt a little dumbfounded.
Your Majesty, you are a little too worried!
No matter how you look at it, Su Chen doesn't look like someone who can hide in the mountains!
When it comes to enjoying life, I’m afraid none of the people here combined can compare to Su Chen!
You know, the house he built on Jiannan Road cost tens of millions of dollars!
How can such a person with such a temper endure loneliness and go to the mountains to live a hard life?
After thinking for a moment, Wei Zheng continued: "Your Majesty, I feel that with Su Chen's temperament, it is absolutely impossible for him to do this."
"If we really mobilize so many forbidden troops, I'm afraid the entire Tang Dynasty will be shaken by this incident!"
"At that time, the outlying states and counties may think that there is trouble in Chang'an."
"Wouldn't this become a joke?"
After he finished speaking, Changsun Wuji also tried to persuade him: "Yes, Your Majesty, I think there is no need to be so exaggerated."
"Even if His Majesty is worried that Su Chen will run away, wouldn't it be enough to seal that Yuzi?"
"Blocking Chang'an City is really a waste of time."
…
The two people tried to persuade him earnestly for a long time, but His Majesty Li Er was still unmoved.
"You don't need to say more!"
His Majesty Li Er said firmly: "If Chang'an City is not sealed, I will feel uneasy!"
"That kid Su Chen has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. No one knows what other plans he has. He must be the most severe!"
"I don't think this negotiation will go smoothly. That guy keeps saying that he won't come out until I die!"
"If he knew that I had been lurking beside him and tricked him, it would be strange if he didn't get angry because of his temperament!"
Speaking of this, His Majesty Li Er also patted Wei Zheng on the shoulder and continued: "You must not take it lightly when fighting with that kid. You must be prepared for the worst!"
"If Li Jing's 700,000-strong army hadn't been able to get back in time, I would have wanted to drag them over and pay that kid more!"
