Datang: From exiled prince to eternal tyrant

Chapter 376
The court here is very lively, everyone is praising Li Ke, but he himself doesn't know it.

After going to the shipyard with Zhao Hu, Li Ke met the craftsmen who built the ship.

After some discussion, these people suddenly realized.

"Your Highness is so insightful, I really admire it."

The old craftsman said with bright eyes.

The attitude towards Li Ke has also changed from the original respect to the current admiration.

His Royal Highness the King of Shu is a true god!
"The matter of shipbuilding has to be relied on by you, so take a lot of trouble."

Li Ke smiled modestly.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, we will do our best."

A group of people headed by the old craftsman all bowed their heads one after another, speaking in an extremely humble but serious manner.

Li Ke was very satisfied.

Emperor Tuigu and Murami Keiko first arrived in Datang, and everything they saw was novel.

In fact, when he was still at sea, Emperor Tuigu was extremely shocked when he saw Datang's ocean-going warships.

Fortunately, she had no intention of attacking Datang head-on at that time.

Otherwise, even if Datang didn't send sergeants to land, relying on the power of warships alone, the country of Wa could be regarded as a flat land.

Emperor Tuigu only felt scared, but also lucky.

But Mieko Murura feels new about everything.

It was the first time she put on the costume of a woman from the Tang Dynasty, and she felt extremely beautiful.

So under the leadership of Xiangling, before Li Ke left, he went to buy a lot of clothes and hairdos.

She also loves to eat.

Li Ke often saw her come back with all kinds of food, and he didn't know where she collected so many delicious food.

"Your Highness, would you like to try this?"

"Soft and glutinous, delicious."

Murami Keiko put a box of snacks in front of Li Ke with a smile.

However, Li Ke didn't do anything, he didn't like sweets very much.

Besides, you can't compete with a little girl for food.

"Go ahead, I've just had dinner."

Li Ke said lightly.

Mieko Murura looked at Li Ke with a regretful expression that you couldn't take it.

He didn't say much, just took the snack and ate it again.

"Your Highness, Datang is really kind."

Murami Keiko had food stuffed in her mouth, and her voice was not very clear.

Li Ke understood clearly, and Xiang Ling naturally understood too.

Seeing Mieko Murura's greedy little face, she couldn't help but tease her.

"That's nothing."

"When we arrive in Shu, there will be a lot of delicious food."

"I'm afraid you don't want to leave by then."

Xiang Ling said.

Murami Keiko's small face became brighter, and she immediately moved to Xiangling's side. :
"really?"

she asked eagerly.

"of course."

Xiangling laughed.

Murami Keiko began to look forward to going to Shu.

However, Li Ke will go to the capital first. After all, the country of Wa has been captured, and there are still many follow-up matters that need to be reported to Li Shimin.

Two days later, Li Ke took everyone to the capital, and Zhao Hu stayed behind to supervise the shipbuilding.

After entering Chang'an, there are many shops and flowers blooming like brocades.

Emperor Tuiko and Murami Keiko felt that their eyes were not enough.

This is Datang Chang'an City!
Any mansion is more splendid than the imperial palace of their country of Wa, and the clothes of the people are much better than those of the people of the country of Wa.

The Tang Dynasty is rich and powerful, and it is really not comparable to the Wa country.

"Grandma, the people of Datang are so happy."

Murami Keiko admired.

She has never seen the calmness and happiness in the people of the Japanese country like the people of the Tang Dynasty.

Maybe the Japanese country in the future can be so happy.

Wrong, there is no Wa country anymore.

However, Murami Keiko did not feel sad.

Although grandma is the emperor, she is not happy in that position.

She seldom saw her old man smile, but after following the King of Shu, she smiled a lot.

Maybe it's because I let go of my worries and live a comfortable life.

Li Ke didn't know what the grandparents were thinking.

As soon as he entered Chang'an, he was immediately called into the palace.

In the imperial study room, Li Ke saw his father, Li Shimin, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

"My son sees my father."

Li Ke saluted respectfully and said.

"Ke'er, get up."

Li Shimin walked over to pull him up, and looked Li Ke up and down carefully.

"The cleanliness has decreased a little, and the people have become black."

Li Shimin said with some distress.

Li Ke immediately smiled and felt relieved.

"Sailing at sea is no better than on land, so I got a little sunburned, which made my father worry."

Li Ke replied.

"It's good to be back."

"Have a good rest and spend more time with your mother and concubine in the palace."

"She has been thinking about you so much."

Li Shimin patted his shoulder and said with concern.

"When I meet my father and queen, I will visit my mother and concubine."

Li Ke nodded in response.

"it is good!"

After the father and son chatted for a while.

Li Ke then told him about his trip to Japan, and then asked Li Shimin about the follow-up appointment of officials in Japan.

"Leave this matter to Du Ruhui. If you have any suitable candidates, you can recommend them to him."

Li Shimin said after pondering for a while.

This is to hand over the Japanese kingdom to Li Ke's management by default.

Who is Li Shimin, how could he not know that Du Ruhui is already a true member of the King of Shu's faction.

But he didn't care, he felt more relieved that his son could be promising.

Li Ke was also smart, so he thanked her bluntly, and then went to see Concubine Yang in her bedroom.

"Mother concubine."

Li Ke shouted with a smile before entering the door.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Shu has returned."

The nanny who had been serving by Concubine Yang's side all the time said.

"My son, please show me quickly."

Concubine Yang grabbed her son tightly.

Turning around to look left and right, seeing how dark Li Ke was, he couldn't help but have reddened eyes.

"My son has worked hard."

"But I didn't eat well when I went out, and I looked thinner."

"Mother and concubine don't worry, everything is fine with my son and minister."

Li Ke immediately patted his chest and said with a smile.

"You child."

Concubine Yang was very pleased to see that he was still in the mood to play tricks to make herself happy.

"Come back this time, will you stay longer?"

She really wanted Li Ke to stay in the palace for a longer time.

Li Ke nodded. He would indeed stay in Beijing for some time, but not for too long.

Shu also has many things waiting for him to go back to deal with.

"That's fine."

Concubine Yang said with a smile.

After Li Shimin finished his work, he came over to have dinner with the mother and son.

During this period, Li Ke mentioned that Emperor Tuigu and her granddaughter went to Datang together.

Li Shimin only said that he would not see the old lady, and let Li Ke make arrangements immediately.

Li Ke stayed in the palace for one night.

After leaving the palace the next day, he gave his previous mansion in Chang'an to Emperor Tuigu.

Emperor Tuigu couldn't describe it with satisfaction after seeing it.

She walked around the mansion three or four times before stopping and kneeling respectfully towards Li Ke.

"Thank you, His Royal Highness the King of Shu."

"You don't need to be too polite, you and Murami Keiko will just live here in the future."

Li Ke said.

Murami Keiko was also very happy, and looked at Li Ke with even more admiration.

When the King of Shu returned to Beijing, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others saw him again.

Several people complimented Li Ke.

"Your Highness is looking for someone to manage the Wa Kingdom, do you have anyone to recommend?"

Du Ruhui asked.
