    With a "clang" sound, Li Min stepped forward and kicked the box over to the ground. The inferior grenades inside rolled all over the floor.  However, Wang An was startled by Li Min's bold move, fearing that the grenades would explode.

    When Brother Sugachi saw these grenades, his face suddenly turned extremely pale. As one of the core figures of the Suga clan, he naturally knew what they were. He even knew that these grenades were from their Suga clan.  His cousin Su Wo also took some of the imitations he ordered to imitate when he went into battle. Presumably these were captured by the Tang army.

    Brother Soga's guess was right. These grenades were indeed captured from Soga's army. Speaking of which, Soga was unlucky. They didn't produce many grenades, so he took a few with him when he attacked Nozu Castle.  But it was of no use at all. When Su Dingfang's army attacked later, a burst of artillery fired down and dispersed the morale of the army. The grenades they brought were not used. As a result, they were all captured by Su Dingfang and sent to Li  Shocked here.

    "Your Highness Your Highness, this is a grenade made by ourselves. It has nothing to do with the Tang Dynasty"

    Brother Su Wachi still wanted to defend himself, but was interrupted by Li Min: "Humph, the grenade you made? We, the Tang Dynasty, have already ordered us repeatedly. Gunpowder weapons are our exclusive equipment. If the surrounding countries dare to  Those who develop it without authorization will be destroyed! Don¡¯t tell me you don¡¯t know about this!¡±

    When Li Min spoke to the end, he looked at the other party condescendingly, his tone became very serious, and all the murderous intent in his body was released without reservation, which brought strong psychological pressure to Brother Su Wochi.

    I saw brother Su Gachi wiping the cold sweat on his forehead.  He looked up at Li Min, who was more than a head taller than him, and said with trembling white lips: "Your Highness, the private manufacture of firearms is only done by a small group of people in our country. Most of the imperial court is unaware of this, so it is still  Please give us some time, Your Highness, and those who secretly make firearms will be brought to justice, and His Highness King Qi will be given an explanation!"

    "Explain?" Li Min sneered, "These firearms were seized from Su Wo Rulu's military tent, and Su Wo Rulu is the next governor of your Su Wo clan. You, the Su Wo clan, can't get rid of the whole thing.  It has nothing to do with me. How are you going to give me an explanation? Don¡¯t try to use a dead person as a scapegoat!"

    Brother Sugachi's face turned red after hearing this. The Suga clan was originally in power in the Japanese country, and they were also in charge of ordering people to imitate firearms. Now the Tang army uses this matter as a reason to send troops. This is simply going to  Their Suga clan was roasting on the fire. Fortunately, it was him who came this time. If it had been other clans' affairs, they would have sold their Suga clan by now.

    Thinking of this.  Brother Sugachi couldn't help but feel a little scared. He wiped the cold sweat on his face again and said, "Your Highness, our Japanese country is at fault this time, but the Heaven has always been kind. I hope Your Highness will give us a chance. At the same time, I am willing to dedicate Zhuzi Island to Your Highness."  , as compensation for His Highness¡¯s dispatch of troops this time!¡±

    However, after hearing this, Li Min burst into disdainful laughter, and then pointed at Brother Su Wa and said: "The little Japanese country is really stingy. This time, I sent more than 100,000 troops. Do you think that a small Zhuzi Island is just like this?"  Can you ask me to withdraw my troops? To tell you the truth. Apart from surrendering your Honshu Island with both hands, your Japanese country has no other way to go!"

    At this time, Wang An, who was next to him, also said angrily: "Your Highness, the Japanese envoy has no sincerity in seeking peace. In my opinion, it is better to mobilize all the armies at sea as soon as possible and wipe out this place in one fell swoop to avoid future troubles!"

    Brother Su Gachi heard the one-on-one reply between the monarch and his minister in front of him, although he also felt that the other party was acting.  But he did not dare to take this risk. Sweat dripped down his forehead in strips, making people worry that if this continued, the Japanese envoy would probably die of dehydration.

    "Forget it. The king and the princess have been married for more than three years, but they have never had any children. However, a well-educated person came to see me and said that I had committed too many crimes, so that's why I was like this. This time  Give Japan a chance." Li Min said this with a serious expression on his face.

    But Wang An next to him almost laughed out loud. He knew that the prince in front of him had always been a guy who disrespected ghosts and gods. Even for Yuan Tiangang, an old immortal recognized by the world, Li Min usually had no respect. Even when he  It seems that Yuan Tiangang's greatest skill is not to help people meet, but to establish a Taoist academy.  This is still true for Yuan Tiangang, let alone other people.

    Brother Su Wachi was very excited when he heard that Li Min finally agreed to give them a chance. He knelt down and thanked Li Min. However, although Li Min agreed to give Japan a chance, this opportunity had to pay a heavy price, such as asking Japan to  Not only Chikushi Island must be ceded, but Iyo Island, which will later be known as Shikoku Island, must also be ceded to Li Min. At the same time, the Iwami area and south of Honshu Island currently occupied by Li Min are also within the scope of cession.

      In addition to ceding territory, Li Min also asked the Japanese state to surrender to him, compensate him for the war indemnity of one million guan at a time, and pay tribute every year. The value of the tribute should not be less than 300,000 guan. At the same time, the Japanese state  The number of internal regular troops must not exceed 100,000.  As for firearms, the Japanese were asked to hand over all relevant craftsmen, and the Japanese were prohibited from having any more gunpowder.

    In addition to the above conditions, Li Min also put forward two additional conditions. First, the Tang people were allowed to recruit workers in the Japanese country, and the Japanese government was not allowed to interfere in all matters. The Tang people also enjoyed extraterritorial rights in the Japanese country. Even if they broke the law, they would be left to Li Min to deal with it.  .  Second, the Tang people owned the mining rights. As long as the mines discovered by the Tang people were the private property of the Tang people, they were not subject to the jurisdiction of the Japanese state.

    Regarding Li Min's lion's mouth, Brother Suga was complaining endlessly, and it was fine to pay for it. The cession of Chikushi Island was also expected, but if Iyo Island and part of Honshu were also ceded, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for their Japanese country.  It was an extremely heavy blow, especially Iyo Island, which was originally close to their political center, not far from the Kii Peninsula where the Asuka region is located. If that area was also ceded, if the Tang army was unhappy one day, they could immediately take advantage of it.  Leading the big ship to the Asuka area, they wouldn't even have a chance to resist.

    So at first, although Brother Su Wochi was timid, he firmly refused to agree, while Li Min lazily argued with him, leaving all the negotiation matters to Wang An, and then left the two of them wrangling in the hall.  But when Li Min walked out of the hall, his face was full of sneers. It was a joke to want to negotiate peace at this time!

    After Li Min left the hall, he immediately came to his study room. When he opened the door, Wu Meiniang, wearing a pink jacket, was sitting by the stove, holding a fragrant cheek in her hand and reading a book.  When she saw Li Min coming in, she immediately threw the book aside, stretched her body and said, "What, the play is over?"

    Li Min closed the door, then walked to Wu Meiniang and sat down gently, stretched out his arms to hug her slender waist, and then said with a smile: "It's not that fast, but those are small things, the rest will be left to Wang Fuhe  That's enough for the Japanese to talk nonsense. As for me, it's better for me to talk about my life ideals with my beautiful lady and understand the path of dual cultivation."

    When Wu Meiniang heard this, she giggled, and she fell into Li Min's arms and said, "My husband is really good at ordering people. He doesn't do serious things, but he comes to the study to tease Meiniang."

    Seeing Mei Niang¡¯s coquettish look, Li Min couldn¡¯t help but feel hot in his lower abdomen. He hugged her tightly and kissed her. At the same time, his hands began to become dishonest.  But Mei Niang was also shocked. During this time, she was alone with Li Min, and the two of them were very happy in the dark. But that was all at night, and now in broad daylight, Wu Mei Niang instinctively resisted.

    However, Li Min didn't care about this. After taking advantage of his words and hands, his anger became more intense. He picked up Wu Meiniang and wanted to execute her on the spot. However, at this moment, Wu Meiniang, who was already panting, actually held her down.  Li Min raised his big hand and said with a blue breath: "Husband Husband, no, Mei Mei Niang still has serious things to talk to you about!"

    "What serious things are more important than loving my little Meiniang?" Li Min didn't take it seriously at all, and still carried Wu Meiniang and walked towards the bed at the back of the study room.

    But at this time, Wu Meiniang had completely woken up, and she immediately made a face: "Your Highness, Meiniang really has something to talk about, and it is very urgent!"

    Li Min was stunned when he heard that Wu Meiniang's name for him had changed. He stopped and asked, "What is so important?"

    Wu Meiniang hugged Li Min's neck, kissed his cheek and said, "Husband, if it wasn't urgent, how could Mei Niang defeat your interest, husband?" After saying that, she also gave Li Min a wink, and now let her  Li Min felt even more angry and could hardly control himself.

    But Wu Meiniang laughed like a silver bell, jumped down from Li Min's arms and said: "Husband, the person we are waiting for has arrived. Meiniang's people have arranged him in a small courtyard south of the city lord's palace. Now he is in a hurry.  To meet my husband, he has a special status and cannot stay out for a long time. In addition, this matter is very urgent and must be arranged as soon as possible after he returns. Therefore, husband, you¡¯d better go and see him first. Mei Niang will make a few for you tonight.  Side dishes¡­¡±

    What Wu Meiniang said before was still serious. When she said the last sentence, her eyes were so charming that she could shed tears. Although Li Min could not control his feelings, he knew that business was important, so he had to hug Wu Meiniang and kiss her again.  After a few mouthfuls, he was taken to the small courtyard where Wu Meiniang placed the man.

    The courtyard is not big, and there are several layers of palace guards outside. When Li Min asked someone to open the courtyard door, the people inside were already standing in front of the door to greet him. After Li Min entered the door, he was also looking at the person standing in front of him.
