Li Shimin faked his death? Then I will be powerful enough to conquer the world!

In the Liangyi Palace, a jaw-dropping chase farce is currently taking place.

Mr. Qi was agile and moved left and right in the hall.

The obese man was panting and chasing after him. Every step he took required all his strength.

He runs away, he chases, he can't fly!

The eunuchs at the palace gate were already stunned. They had never seen anyone dare to chase each other so recklessly in this solemn Liangyi Palace.

In their eyes, this was a great disrespect to His Majesty and an act that was enough to anger the Emperor.

Unexpectedly, Li Chengqian, who was sitting on the seat, was not angry at all. Instead, his face was filled with a bright and joyful smile.

He watched the scene with great interest, pointing and commenting from time to time, and loudly instructing Lin Dafu on how to catch Mr. Qi.

After all, Lin Dafu's endurance is limited. After going through all the tossing and turning, his huge body soon couldn't hold on any longer.

His legs suddenly went limp and he sat down heavily on the ground with a thump.

He was breathing heavily and his breathing was rapid.

After a moment, he finally recovered and raised his head. With a hint of anxiety in his eyes, he stammered, "Your Majesty! I beg you to execute this Qi!"

His voice sounded tired.

"This is the treacherous minister of my Tang Dynasty! The treacherous minister!"

When Li Chengqian heard Lin Dafu's words, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, with a hint of joking. He immediately waved his hand and said loudly: "Alright, come here, drag Master Qi away and chop him off..."

Before he could finish his words, the fat man moved to Li Chengqian's feet at lightning speed.

He hugged Li Chengqian's thighs tightly with both hands, a flattering smile on his face, and said eagerly: "It's a joke, it's a joke, Your Majesty!"

Then, his expression instantly turned into a bitter one, his brows furrowed, and his eyes were full of resentment.

"But the money required is too much! I, a commoner, may not be able to handle it!"

Li Chengqian looked down at Lin Dafu's pitiful appearance and couldn't help feeling pity in his heart.

He leaned forward slightly and said softly, "Fatty, I'm just speaking from the heart to you and Old Qi. We have to spend money on this. There are countless places in the Tang Dynasty where we need to spend money."

“Although there is still some money at present, the money received by the Ministry of Revenue will need to be invested heavily in people’s livelihood construction next year.”

"Only when Datang's economy flourishes can a virtuous cycle be formed, and benefits will naturally flow back."

"But you are different from others in your stinginess in giving. How can the Minister of Finance, Li Wei, be compared with you?"

"I promise you, I will make you the richest man in the world! Tell me, are you rich now?"

Lin Dafu raised his head and looked at Li Chengqian eagerly with a puzzled look in his eyes, and nodded slightly.

Li Chengqian saw this and smiled proudly, "You are the greatest businessman in the world, the imperial businessman!"

"I am standing behind you! With me backing you up, what do you have to worry about? It's just some military factories, alloy factories, textile factories, coal factories, shipyards..."

"To you, these are nothing but a piece of cake. It's nothing! Isn't it just a small amount of military expenditure for next year? Don't worry, Fatty! After I successfully conquer Goguryeo and Silla, I will directly allocate half of the profits to the Chamber of Commerce."

"In this case, how can you lose so much?"

Fatty Lin felt mixed emotions when he heard what Li Chengqian said. He could only blink his small eyes helplessly, trying to digest this huge amount of information.

Li Chengqian paused for a moment, then said earnestly, "Fatty! This is just the beginning!"

"We are only opening a factory in Shaanxi Province now. This is just the beginning. In the future, we will open factories on every inch of land in Datang."

"Everything we're doing now is just like a sumptuous meal. We've just served a small dish, and you're already scared?"

"Of course, the cost of the military factory and alloy factory is higher, but our Tang Dynasty was founded on military power. Now that the forging temperature has been increased, this means that our future Qianwu cannons will be even more powerful, and the number will definitely not be limited to just two."

"I promise you that every shell fired will bring dozens, even hundreds, of times the profit to the Tang Dynasty!"

Hearing His Majesty's words so confidently, Lin Dafu knew that there was no turning back.

He knew in his heart that if he continued to shirk responsibility, he would appear to be a little immature.

So, he took a deep breath and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, I understand. I will start investing as soon as I return."

Hearing that Lin Dafu finally agreed, Li Chengqian smiled with relief, and his smile was full of satisfaction.

He slowly glanced at Mr. Qi and Lin Dafu, his eyes filled with sincerity, and said slowly: "Old Qi, Fatty, you all know what kind of person I am."

"From ancient times to the present, countless emperors, except for the retired emperor, have chosen the practice of discarding the bow after the bird is dead and discarding the bow after the rabbit is dead."

"But I will never become that kind of emperor. I can't do such a thing as abandoning the dog after the rabbit has died, and I will never do it."

"You are all meritorious officials of the Tang Dynasty. Each of you has made great contributions to the country."

"Just be assured and work hard for the Tang Dynasty."

"I sincerely hope to see the day when each of you becomes so powerful that you threaten your master!"

When Mr. Qi and Lin Dafu heard these heartfelt words, they felt a warm current in their hearts. They looked at each other, and their eyes were shining with emotion.

Then, they both clasped their fists and saluted at the same time, shouting in unison: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
