Chapter 879
Instead, it was Great Tang that might have to rely on Great Qin.
"Your Majesty of Great Qin, uh... could you also gift some 'Wuhou Marching Powder' to my Great Tang?"
"Selling it is also fine; my side is willing to pay."
Li Er was truly stifled.
The Great Tang of the past also had a divine physician, Sun Simiao. It's a pity his hometown was in a suburban county of Chang'an.
Now, he was a physician of Great Qin.
If he had brought Sun Simiao to Jin Ling in the beginning, maybe he wouldn't have needed to beg Great Qin.
Qin Mu certainly wouldn't give the medicine.
Giving Great Tang the marching powder, wouldn't that be looking for trouble for himself?
Qin Mu didn't want to waste any more breath with Li Er.
He said directly.
"Otherwise, let's not cooperate. Let's each advance our troops and see whose speed is faster?"
"Whoever grabs it, it belongs to them!"
In this way, I'm afraid Great Tang wouldn't even be able to drink soup...
Zhangsun Wuji was far away in Jiaozhou; to pass a message to him, it was at least five thousand miles away!
Half of it was still Great Qin territory.
As long as Great Qin blocked it slightly, the message definitely wouldn't reach Zhangsun Wuji's hands.
And Great Qin could easily reach Siam by sea.
If it came to speed, Great Tang would definitely lose!
Li Er was truly angered this time and started rolling his eyes on the spot.
Frightened, Fang Xuanling hurriedly supported him.
He requested of Qin Mu.
"Your Majesty, Li Er is afraid he is suffering from an accumulation of anger; I request Your Majesty to send an imperial physician to diagnose and treat him."
"Otherwise, I'm afraid someone is going to die!"
Qin Mu, however, said unhurriedly.
"The Great Tang envoy died of his own illness; what does that have to do with Great Qin?"
Fang Xuanling knew that Qin Mu was also somewhat annoyed by Great Tang's attitude.
Therefore, he deliberately adopted such an attitude of not saving someone in danger.
Helplessly, Fang Xuanling could only say.
"Great Tang can give up all the benefits of Siam. Just please, Your Majesty, summon an imperial physician to diagnose Li Er!"
That's more like it.
Qin Mu easily incorporated the benefits of Siam into his pocket in advance.
He moved his fingers toward Li Shizhen beside him.
Li Shizhen received the Emperor's instruction, stepped forward to check on Li Er, and took out silver needles to prick him a few times.
Li Er finally eased up.
His life was not in danger, but the benefits of Siam were all lost.
Li Er's heart was truly unable to balance.
He arched his hands toward Qin Mu.
"I am feeling unwell, so I will take my leave first!"
Under the mocking gazes of the Great Qin officials, Fang Xuanling supported Li Er, and the two withdrew together.
Qin Mu just wanted to anger Great Tang.
Regarding Siam, he wasn't that anxious yet.
Regarding maritime routes, Qin Mu had his grand plan.
Currently, Siam couldn't be considered a very important place. The most important place was actually outside Great Tang's line of sight, the Strait of Malacca.
Siam just had potential; Qin Mu would definitely take it down in the future.
Because, in Siam, one could artificially dig a canal to replace Malacca.
After replacing it, the voyage of the maritime route would be shortened by more than two thousand miles. This was the true significance of occupying Siam.
Great Tang would slowly understand in the future.
It's just, not now!
