Chapter 737: Inviting Important Officials to Take a Bath
By the time Li Che and Wang Chongjian left the workshop, the mortars and hot air balloons had been handed over and were delivered to the camp by their own soldiers.
Yang Zhongsi's face was flushed, and he was obviously still immersed in the excitement of receiving the new weapons.
Chen Gui on the side was also not satisfied. He was still pulling Wang Zhongsi and constantly demonstrating the tactical coordination of the mortar.
This explosive genius has not had the opportunity to go to the battlefield since the formation of the Dongfeng Army, and can only satisfy his desire to talk big.
There was no other way. Li Che couldn't bear to let this precious baby go to the battlefield and fight.
Chen Gui stayed behind to improve the weapons, which was equivalent to a million strong army!
Unless Fengguo falls into a desperate situation, there is no chance of participating in actual combat in this life.
"Thank you for your hard work!" Li Che clapped his hands and smiled brightly, "We've had a great harvest today. I'm your host. Let's go to Heaven on Earth and take a bath to relax!"
Chen Gui and Wang Chongjian's eyes lit up when they heard this, and they immediately bowed:
"Thank you for your grace, Your Highness!"
Obviously, these two are very familiar with the world-famous Heaven and Earth. After all, none of them are serious people.
It’s just that the cost of living in Paradise is too expensive, and even the two of them don’t have the conditions to go there every day.
However, Yang Zhongsi had been stationed in the bitter cold of the north for too long and felt unfamiliar with Tianshangrenjian. He only knew that it was something created by Li Che and was said to make a fortune.
Now that Li Che had personally invited him, there was naturally no reason for him to refuse.
As they walked out of the university's security zone, Qiu Bai hurriedly approached them.
"Your Highness, General Zilong and Lord Huo have returned to Fengtian and are waiting to see you at the palace."
"Oh?!" Li Che's face lit up with joy upon hearing this. "Great! Zhengze and Zilong are back, and the Silla issue is finally settled!"
He immediately ordered Qiu Bai, "Go, tell them to go directly to Heaven on Earth. Tell them that I'm waiting for them there, and we can chat while we're at it!"
"Yes!" Qiu Bai accepted the order, turned around and walked away quickly.
Li Che was in a good mood and called out to everyone: "Let's go! It's a good time to go together!"
. . . . . .
The Tianshang Renjian Building in Fengtian City is much more magnificent than the one in Chaoyang City.
There was a constant stream of people coming and going, all of them wealthy people dressed in silk, their faces glowing with happiness.
But Li Che and his party did not stay in the front hall, and were respectfully led the way by the steward.
There are Tianshang Renjian buildings all over Daqing, but the one in Fengtian is different from the others. Being the King of Fengtian does give you some privileges.
Passing through layers of corridors, you enter a more secluded independent courtyard, which is an area exclusively for Li Che.
On weekdays, even if Li Che is not in Fengtian City, this place is not open to the public.
Yang Zhongsi followed him into the courtyard, and the view before his eyes suddenly opened up.
There was a bathing pool made of white marble occupying the center. The water in the pool was crystal clear, steam was rising, and unknown spices and flower petals were floating on the water.
The surrounding corridors are covered with carved and painted columns, which are barely visible in the mist, and the ground is paved with mirror-smooth bricks and stones.
Even though Yang Zhongsi was used to seeing life and death, he was still stunned by the extreme luxury that came before his eyes.
Li Che smiled and said, "Uncle Yang, just enjoy yourself. These things may look impressive, but they are actually not expensive."
Yang Zhongsi grinned and said, "Your Highness has worked hard, you should enjoy what you deserve."
He was not a corrupt scholar like Wen Zaiyin. As the sworn brother of Emperor Yang of the previous dynasty, he had seen more luxurious scenes.
Compared with Emperor Yang, Li Che's luxury is nothing.
A waiter had already been waiting there with a snow-white, soft bath towel. Li Che waved his hand, and the waiter retreated silently.
They are all Li Che's trusted ministers, so there is no need to be so particular.
Several people took off their outer robes and official uniforms, wrapped only bath towels around their waists, and stepped into the pool one after another.
"hiss......"
The scalding water instantly enveloped his entire body, scalding Li Che so much that he couldn't help but gasp.
All the pores on my body dilated, my muscles and bones seemed to relax, and I felt relaxed all over.
Yang Zhongsi shuddered all over, the bitter cold of the northern border was completely dispelled, and he sighed in comfort.
Just as everyone settled down by the pool, the gate opened again.
Huo Duanxiao and Yue Yun were dressed in casual clothes and walked over looking exhausted.
The two of them walked quickly to the edge of the pool and bowed to Li Che in the pool: "Your Highness, I, Huo Duanxiao (Yueyun), pay my respects to you!"
Li Che laughed, stood up directly from the water, and stretched out his hand to the two of them:
"Zhengze, Zilong, you've had a hard time all the way here. Come down quickly, let's talk in the water!"
Huo Duanxiao and Yue Yun were Li Che's favorite civil and military ministers respectively. Although they were both deeply favored, the etiquette between the monarch and his subjects was never relaxed.
The two men bowed and thanked him again, then took off their clothes and scarves, walked carefully into the pool, and found a place to sit down below Li Che.
The scalding water in the pool relaxed Huo Duanxiao's frown a little, while Yue Yun closed his eyes and took a deep breath, as if to drive away the blood in his body.
Li Che leaned back against the pool wall and scooped up a handful of hot water to pour over his face.
Then he looked at the two of them, his eyes piercing, and said, “Okay, tell me, what’s the result on Silla’s side?”
Everyone's attention instantly focused on Huo Duanxiao.
Huo Duanxiao cleared his throat and said, "Your Highness, the matter of Silla and Baekje has been concluded."
"The Queen of Silla, her crown prince, members of the royal family, and close ministers, totaling 137 people, were all executed at Shilipo outside the royal capital, Sabi."
"General Yue Yun personally supervised the execution, and the beheading was displayed to the public for three days."
"As per His Highness's prior instructions, 70% of the treasury and royal palace treasures will be left to develop Silla, and 30% will be transported back to Feng by our army."
Several soft gasps were heard in the pool.
A gleam of light flashed in Yang Zhongsi's eyes, while Chen Gui and Wang Chongjian looked sad.
Li Che's expression was calm, he just nodded slightly, motioning Huo Duanxiao to continue.
"The Baekje royal family was relatively well-behaved, but there were many stubborn resistance factions within the army. We have all eliminated them."
"The Baekje army cooperated with the night watchmen to carry out the execution. All of them were beheaded and displayed publicly. A total of 763 people."
"The King of Baekje burst into tears of gratitude and personally wrote a letter to the Kingdom, stating that Silla was a treacherous nation and its crimes were unforgivable. Your Highness is fighting against the rebellion, acting in the name of justice, and Baekje has no objection."
"The King of Baekje is willing to surrender his entire nation to our Feng Kingdom and to respect His Majesty Daqing as his father. He will serve as the eastern vassal of Feng Kingdom for generations and will never betray us."
"Here is the letter from the credential."
Huo Duanxiao took a sealed waterproof copper tube from the tray by the pool and presented it with both hands.
