Chapter 122

Even!

Li Li Xueyan and Princess Changle had both been changed by Qin Mu.

This was something Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wugou could not accept.

After all these days of trouble, not only did she fail to persuade Qin Mu, but her two daughters had been completely influenced by him.

Li Li Xueyan went without saying.

She was already Qin Mu’s Princess.

But now even Princess Changle didn’t want to return to the Great Tang!

How could this be?

If this continued.

Wouldn’t she also start to feel attached?

No matter what!

She absolutely could not stay any longer!

“Princess Changle, no matter how good Great Qin is, it is someone else’s place; it is not your home after all.”

“Come back with Mother. Now that Chong’er is dead, your father will no longer force you to marry.”

Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wugou gently stroked Princess Changle’s hair and said softly.

Having experienced so many things.

She understood that cherishing the people around you was the most important thing.

“I’m not going back! Mother, I’ve decided, I’m never going back. I want to live with Sister Li Xueyan and Brother-in-law!”

Princess Changle pouted and said stubbornly.

“Don’t talk nonsense! Where have you heard of a girl wanting to live with her brother-in-law? Aren’t you afraid of what others will say? You are still young; when you grow up, living with your brother-in-law every day, what would that look Wu Li Ke?”

Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wugou scolded.

“I don’t care! I’m just not going back!”

Princess Changle didn’t want to think about it and left the room in a huff.

“This child!”

Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wugou sighed and shook her head helplessly.

In another private room.

Qin Mu was discussing state affairs with several ministers.

Princess Li Li Xueyan stood behind him, giving him a massage.

Of course!

This small matter didn’t need Li Li Xueyan to do it herself.

It was just that Li Li Xueyan was extremely jealous and didn’t want others to massage Qin Mu.

Especially the waitresses in this inn, all of whom were extremely enchanting and beautiful.

What was even more terrifying was that these waitresses had a fanatical worship of Qin Mu.

Each of them wished they could offer themselves to him.

Facing such a group of hungry wolves, how could Li Li Xueyan feel at ease leaving Qin Mu to them?

“Tell me! Is there anything I need to know?”

Qin Mu enjoyed Li Li Xueyan’s massage, preparing to close his eyes and listen to the ministers’ reports.

After trading with Li Li Chengqian and Fang Fang Xuanling, Qin Mu didn’t leave Jiannan Dao immediately.

There was no special reason.

It was just that Jiannan Dao was too good!

The climate was pleasant, Wu Li Ke spring all year round.

Compared to the Tubo Plateau, it was Wu Li Ke heaven.

What’s more.

This luxury inn built by Shen Wansan was incredibly opulent!

Everything for eating, drinking, and playing was available!

There were so many beauties that even the Budalagong couldn’t compare.

Ever since Qin Mu moved into this luxury inn, it had become his private palace, and no one else was allowed to stay there.

Such a luxurious five-star inn was now his alone to enjoy.

Awesome!

It was so damn awesome!

What is the point of conquering the world?

Isn’t it just to enjoy life?

If you don’t enjoy it now, when will you?

“Reporting to Your Majesty, the iron ore traded with the Great Tang has been transported back to the Royal City and handed over to Dean Shen Kuo.”

“This batch of iron ore solved our urgent need for building the Grand Canal. The construction project is proceeding smoothly, and the first phase will be completed in about a year.” Ludongzan reported to Qin Mu respectfully.

“Very good!”

Qin Mu nodded with satisfaction.

However, he was thinking about another matter.

How to produce a steady stream of mineral resources!

The Tubo Plateau was at a very high altitude and had barren resources, not suitable for mining.

This trade with the Great Tang had indeed solved an urgent need.

But what about next time?

Who could guarantee that the Great Tang would always provide various mineral resources?

As the saying goes.

To forge iron, one must be strong oneself!

Instead of keeping Great Qin’s mineral resources in the hands of others, it was better to discover them yourself.

“Issue a decree: have Shen Kuo send several capable technical experts to Jiannan Dao immediately; they must be talents familiar with geography and minerals.”

“As you command!”

Before the words were finished, Wei Wei Zhongxian had already sent the decree.

The speed and efficiency were truly high!

“Reporting to Your Majesty, according to the information gathered by my subordinates, Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji and Fang Fang Xuanling arrived in Changancheng one after another.”

“Besides that, Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji did something very shocking.”

Yu Yu Huatian said respectfully.

“Oh? What is it?”

Qin Mu slowly opened his eyes.

What kind of trouble was this old fox causing now?

“According to reliable intelligence, after Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji returned to Changancheng, he immediately gathered over a thousand members of the Empress Zhangsun family, dressed in mourning clothes, and led by Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji, held a grand funeral for Empress Zhangsun Chong on Zhuque Avenue! This incident shocked the entire capital, and even the Emperor of Great Tang came in person, leading to a fierce conflict with Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji!”

“A fierce conflict? What do you mean?”

Qin Mu looked at Yu Yu Huatian with interest, holding his fragrant tea and sipping it slowly.

Looking at his appearance, it was as if he had come to listen to a story.

“I heard that Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji forced the Emperor of Great Tang to issue a decree to go to war with Great Qin.”

“Is this old fox too bold? Daring to force a monarch in public? How many lives does he have to live?”

Li Li Xueyan, who was massaging Qin Mu, couldn’t help but interject.

What kind of person was Li Er?

Although his decisiveness in killing was not as good as Qin Mu’s, he was still a ruthless character!

The scene at Xuanwu Gate back then was so bloody that people still felt lingering fear when they thought about it.

Was Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji also blinded by his grief?

Daring to confront Li Er in the street!

“No! Empress Zhangsun Zhangsun Wuji has his reasons for doing this.”
