Chapter 843: egg on

The cool wind in the imperial study room came from the hand-cranked fan, but Li Chuyuan was sweating profusely.
Drops of sweat from the beans kept rolling off.
He now understands that Xiao Ming's real purpose this time is indeed the Kingdom of Chu, and for him, this is a crucial conversation. As long as he makes a mistake, he will fall into a situation where he will not be restored.
Therefore, he first decided to pretend to be stupid, because he always liked his opponent to show his cards first, so he said: "The emperor's meaning is not clear.
Hearing that, Xiao Ming smiled. Li Chuyuan may be a greedy and lustful person, but he will certainly not be a political idiot when he was born in the environment where Chu is located.
"Don’t pretend to be stupid. You know the state of Chu now better than me. Your father is looking for his own death. Once the Cao family intervenes in the government of the Chu state, the Chu state is the state of Chu of the Cao family, not the royal one. Chu State, after all, the reason why the great ancestors entrusted Chu State to the Li family was the friendship of the year, are you right?" Xiao Ming said with a smile.
Li Chuyuan's face paled. Xiao Ming's words were obviously threatening. After hesitating, he nodded and echoed: "The emperor is right. How can Chu country fall into the hands of others? Will agree, even if it is an official, he will not agree."
"That's right. In fact, you have been very optimistic about you in the past few years in Qingzhou. This crisis is a common crisis between the Great Yu Kingdom and the Chu Kingdom. Under consideration, I have decided to let you return to Lin'an." Xiao Ming stared at it. Li Chuyuan said.
"Let...Let me go back?" Li Chuyuan pointed to himself and said in a strange way.
Xiao Ming nodded affirmatively, "Chu has been bewitched by the ministers, and now only you, the son of the world, can turn the tide."
For him, it was only a matter of time to win Chu State, just to reduce casualties. He hoped that Chu State would become vulnerable due to civil strife when he went south.
Li Chuyuan was the one who caused the internal chaos in Chu.
What he can be sure of is that this elder son will definitely not wear a pair of pants with the Cao family. Even if he cooperates with the Cao family under the pressure of the Chu King, he will definitely believe in the Cao family.
"Xie the emperor go to Longen, thank the emperor to Longen." Li Chuyuan couldn't help himself with excitement. Two years passed in the blink of an eye in Qingzhou. During the past two years, he missed his country of Chu all the time.
Now he can finally go back.
"Clean up and go back. Remember what I said to you, whether it's life or death, richness or downfall, this is all your choice." Xiao Ming reminded again.
Li Chuyuan nodded and thanked him again and again before leaving the royal study room.
Qian Dafu looked at Li Chuyuan's figure with incomprehension, and said, "The emperor, just let Li Chuyuan go back. Isn't the emperor afraid that the king of Chu will lose his only taboo and attack the north?"
Xiao Ming smiled, "If this is the case, I will be famous as a teacher. What I fear is that King Chu will not do anything. For me, it makes no difference whether Li Chuyuan is in Qingzhou or not, but it is different for Chu State. Now, how is Li Chuyuan willing to let the wealth and rights he is about to integrate to the Cao family? After all, the relationship between Li Chuyuan and the Cao family is nothing more than ordinary."
After a pause, he continued: "Moreover, if King Chu dies, Li Chuyuan, who has inherited the position of King Chu, will definitely intensify conflicts with the Cao family. At that time, attacking Chu will be twice the result with half the effort."
Qian Dafu nodded slightly. He understands now. The emperor made a clear move to the King of Chu. If everything goes well, Li Chuyuan will play the role of a cudgel once he returns.
Just as the two were talking, Li Chuyuan left the palace and headed to his house. Now he can't wait to return to Lin'an. He misses the feeling of being above ten thousand people alone.
In the past two years in Qingzhou, he was really frustrated. After all, he was just a bargaining chip as a proton.
When he returned to the yard, he immediately packed up his servants and headed to Lin'an. In fact, he could see through Xiao Ming's thoughts, but he had to say that Xiao Ming was really great. This time he was talking about his pain.
This time he returned to Chu State and he was going to fight the Cao family. He didn't want to lose his rights and status.
Knowing that Li Chuyuan was going back, the look of the old butler who served Li Chuyuan changed drastically. He said, "His Royal Highness, I want to go back to Lin'an now, do you want to discuss with His Royal Highness Chu Wang?"
Li Chuyuan sneered twice, then he lifted his foot and kicked the old housekeeper violently, and said angrily: "You old dog, do you really think I don't know what you hooked up with those businessmen? Cao Kun This must have given you a lot of benefits, right? Why, let me wait for two days so that you can tell the news, right?"
The old housekeeper obviously didn't expect Li Chuyuan to hurt people back. He groaned while lying on the ground. Li Chuyuan's strength was so strong that he almost broke his bones with this kick.
But Li Chuyuan was right this time. He did often sell Li Chuyuan's whereabouts in exchange for silver, and he knew that someone was monitoring Li Chuyuan.
Seeing the horrified look on the old housekeeper's face, Li Chuyuan was even more anxious, and he punched and kicked the old housekeeper again.
After venting his anger, the old housekeeper was already dying. At this time, Li Chuyuan left the house without looking back, and he secretly wanted to embarrass the Cao family.
...
In Lin'an, Cao Kun sneezed and rubbed his nose. He turned to look north.
Cao Kun is next to the French instructor Brazil and the missionary Richard. Now they are very friendly friends.
Behind him is his eldest son Cao Zhengtong.
Today they will formally announce the establishment of the Merchants Council and will insert a foot into the game of power from then on.
"Chairman Cao~EbookFREE.me~ Now what your council needs is an army. Without an army, your merchant council is just a puppet. In my opinion, it's time to establish a new army of the council." Li Cha's eyes flashed complicated. look.
Cao Kun was agitated when he heard the words, and Richard's words were in his heart. The merchant council without military command is just an empty shell.
"What's your opinion, Mr. Richard?" Cao Kun asked.
Richard hesitated. In the past two years, Cao Kun has taken them to explore the mountains and rivers of the south, and at the same time made them very rich.
Because of this, their relationship with Cao Kun is getting better and better, and now they often advise Cao Kun.
After experiencing the French Revolution, they like the conference that Cao Kun is promoting from the bottom of their hearts, because it will mean that they will be more difficult to deal with than a dictatorship.
"In fact, it is very simple. One is for the country and the other is for the money. Although the king of Chu has a large army, but lacks good soldiers, now as long as you are willing to spend money, we can train you good private soldiers. Your family is still qualified to recruit tribes here, and this tribe army is your strength."
