Datang: Destroy Tang Taizong Li Xiao at the beginning

"Okay then, since His Highness has spoken, you are allowed to board the boat, but there are no seats, so you have to stand."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Xiang Jun lowered his head and yelled, then handed over the money and walked to a corner of the boat without saying a word.

On the other side, Li Xiao whispered to Li Junxian, "Go back and tell the Ministry of Commerce that a certain number of standing tickets can be set up on the ship in the future, and the price will be doubled. It's all money!"

In fact, this so-called Huaxia Commercial Bank was established by himself.

Otherwise, where did he get the 800 million taels of silver in Qiongzhou a year?

The annual income of the entire Tang Dynasty is only tens of millions of taels.

In the corner, Xiang Jun moved his ears, but he couldn't hear what Li Xiao said.

He raised his head secretly, ready to take a peek.

But when he looked up, he froze.

Not far from Li Xiao, sat four very familiar faces.

He was very sure that those four people were his subordinates.

The spy who was ordered to come to Qiongzhou to investigate the situation before.

Then nothing happened.

This weird situation has become one of the most mysterious doubts of the Privy Council.

He never expected that he would meet a few people here and find his subordinates so easily.

At this moment, the spies seemed to have noticed something, and their eyes immediately shifted over.

Xiang Jun immediately winked and motioned for several people to come to him.

In any case, in short, ask the specific situation first, and then decide on the next plan.

However, what he never expected was that...

The spies immediately stood up and shouted in surprise, "Boss! Why are you here?"

Xiang Jun: "???"

He was completely stunned.

What's happening here?

Can't you see Li Xiao is right next to you?

With such a big fanfare, are you really not afraid of being exposed?

You are spies!

Seeing Li Xiao looking over, Xiang Jun quickly lowered his head, pretending that the matter had nothing to do with him.

But then, the spies rushed over, patted Xiang Jun on the shoulder and said, "Boss, don't hide, since we are here, we will all be from Qiongzhou!"

Xiang Jun was full of doubts at the moment.

"You have misunderstood the person, my name is Zhang Ergou."

Xiang Jun is worthy of being a secret agent. No matter how bad the situation is, his tone is still calm.

"Stop pretending!"

A secret agent said without thinking: "Your Highness is a wise master, and will not kill your head."

When Xiang Jun heard this, his face was very ugly.

It was clear that his men had betrayed the court.

"Xiang Jun?"

At this time, Li Xiao came over and said with a smile: "It's been three years, are Your Majesty and Mr. Fang still in good health?"

Xiang Jun also knew that he couldn't pretend anymore, raised his head, and smiled awkwardly: "I didn't expect His Highness to still remember that His Majesty has personally marched for several times and suffered some minor injuries, but nothing serious."

After finishing speaking, Xiang Jun's face became serious: "These people are members of my Privy Council, did your Highness know?"

"I know, what's wrong?"

"Why did His Highness keep them in Qiongzhou?"

"I didn't stay. They wanted to follow me. If you don't believe me, ask them."

Hearing this, Xiang Jun frowned.

"Boss, what His Highness said is true." A spy said, "When you stay in Qiongzhou for a few days, you will not leave."

"absurd!"

Xiang Jun looked at his subordinates angrily: "Do you still remember the oath you made when you entered the Privy Council?"

"Is this your loyalty?"

"Betray the imperial court! Betray the Privy Council! Absolutely unforgivable!"

Chapter 269: Shocked Xiang Jun for a whole year

on board.

Xiang Jun looked at these subordinates angrily.

"What do you think of the Privy Council?"

"Come if you want, leave if you want?"

"You think you can do whatever you want with the protection of His Highness the King of Yue?"

"I really didn't expect you to be such people!"

"In order to satisfy my desires, I actually betrayed my previous beliefs. I was really blind before to trust you!"

After a few words, Xiang Jun became more and more excited as he spoke.

He couldn't figure out why his trusted subordinate turned his back on him so easily.

"Boss, that's not the case..."

"Don't call me boss!"

Xiang Jun interrupted his subordinates and continued: "You are not worthy!"

Hearing this, several subordinates looked anxious and wanted to explain something, but Xiang Jun didn't give them the slightest chance at all.

"Are you finished?"

Li Xiao said with a smile on his face all the time.

After Xiang Jun finished speaking, he took a deep breath and looked at Li Xiao calmly: "His Royal Highness, how do you want to deal with it?"

After a pause, he added: "However, there is one thing that needs to be reminded, my people saw that I boarded the same boat as His Highness, if I disappeared, the news would soon reach His Majesty's ears. "

Although he didn't know what Li Xiao wanted to do.

But obviously, now that his identity has been exposed, he also knows a lot of Li Xiao's secrets.

Li Xiao is likely to keep him in Qiongzhou forever.

"Why should I deal with you?"

Li Xiao looked puzzled.

"Your Majesty knows His Highness's secret, isn't Your Highness afraid that it will be heard by His Majesty?" Xiang Jun said with a puzzled expression.

"What secret do I have?" Li Xiao shook his head and laughed, "Mr. Xiang can go wherever he wants, I don't care."

"Ok?"

Xiang Jun frowned immediately, thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind.

Could it be that he was going to deal with him secretly?

After pondering for a moment, Xiang Jun said in a deep voice: "I will return to Beijing now and report this matter to Your Majesty!"

"Please."

Li Xiao smiled.

Hearing this, Xiang Jun became more certain of his thoughts.

If you leave like this, you won't be far away.

It seems that we have to find another way.

At least get the word out so he's safe.

A few hours later, the boat stopped at the port of Xuwen City.

A group of people disembarked.

Looking at Xiang Jun, Li Xiao asked with a smile on his face: "Mr. Xiang, is that enough money? Do you want me to send someone to see you off?"

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness."

Xiang Jun rolled his eyes and said: "I suddenly remembered that I still have some things to do, so I ask to stay with His Highness for a while, I wonder if it is possible?"

In his opinion, going now would be a dead end.

He can only stay here and let Li Xiao relax his vigilance, so that he can find another chance to escape.

"What you want to do is to investigate Qiongzhou's intelligence?" Li Xiao asked calmly.

Xiang Jun: "..."

It's okay to just say this kind of thing casually, right?

Embarrassment flashed across his face, and he said: "Your Highness misunderstood, Qiongzhou is too poor and backward, His Majesty worried that His Highness's life here would be very difficult, so he sent you here..."

"Did you send me here to give me money?" Li Xiao's eyes lit up, "How much money did you bring?"

Hearing this, Xiang Jun was dumbfounded.

Did the king of Yue fall into Qian's eyes?

Can't you hear that it's just polite talk?

"Your Highness is joking."

Xiang Jun smiled awkwardly: "You also know that the war in the north continues and the treasury is short of money. How can there be any money to spend in Qiongzhou..."

"Bah, bah, bah! I made a slip of the tongue, Your Highness, don't blame me."

"It's okay."

Li Xiao smiled and said generously.

"I have always liked the beauty of adults. If you return empty-handed, you will definitely be punished. How about this, I allow you to stay by my side to investigate information, and you can leave whenever you want."

Xiang Jun: "???"

This time I really can't fix him.

Knowing that he was here to inquire about information, how could he still cooperate like this?

Are all the juniors now so good at playing?

Xiang Jun was silent for a while, then clasped his fists and said: "Thank you for your success, Your Highness, I am very grateful."

"Great, let me tell you, boss, you will definitely not leave."

Several subordinates of the Privy Council also beamed with joy.

Xiang Jun rolled his eyes and ignored them.

"I'm going to the government office now, Mr. Xiang follow closely, don't get lost."

Li Xiao gave some instructions, and then led the people to walk forward.

Xiang Jun followed immediately.

On the way, Xiang Jun couldn't help but said: "Since His Highness does not object to inquiring about Qiongzhou's news, can His Highness answer the next few questions?"

Li Xiao waved his hand: "Ask!"

"How many soldiers and horses are there in Qiongzhou?"
