In fact, Wang Hongfu really made a slip of the tongue. He was just following Li Shen's words.

He felt the implicit meaning of Li Shen's words, which was that the emperor was still alive and he could not do it.

That's why he followed up with another sentence for some unknown reason.

When Li Shen heard Wang Xuance's plea, he snorted:

“Humph, I really should beat you to death, what do you think?

Even if we ignore his identity, he is still my father. How dare you ask me to kill my father?

Besides, even if I have this idea...bah, bah, bah, I have never had such an idea.

This is extremely treasonous, extremely treasonous. "

At this moment, Li Shen thought of his lost money, which was all earned by his youth.

"Then your Majesty, what should we do next?" Wang Xuance changed the subject. He was afraid that Prince Ji would say something outrageous.

“What I mean is that we must find a way to delay the crown prince’s succession to the throne so that the tiger-raising plan can continue.

This also gives the tiger enough time to grow up. Do you understand, you idiot?"

Li Shen looked at Wang Hongfu angrily.

Wang Hongfu nodded repeatedly to show that he understood.

Wang Xuance and Xue Rengui also nodded.

To be honest, they actually thought that King Ji meant that, because what King Ji said just now really made people think about something far-fetched.

It’s just that they didn’t say anything, but Wang Hongfu spoke up.

"Your Majesty, could it be that you also told the King of Jin about what you said about Ashina Helu?"

Suddenly Wang Xuance thought of something and asked quickly.

"Hehe, that's right, this was also a sudden idea of ​​the king. Didn't he say last year that he was secretly recruiting his old subordinates?

It seems that this person is also ambitious.

It would be best for Li Zhi to get along with this person, so that he can nourish his ambitions. "

Li Shen chuckled. Ambitious people will naturally not always be willing to be inferior to others. Since you lack strength, I will give you one.

"Your Highness is indeed very clever, I admire you." Wang Xuance said admiringly. Prince Ji really took great pains to get revenge.

"But how can we get Prince Jin in touch with Ashina Helu?" Xue Rengui asked.

Li Shen was stunned. Yes, what if Li Zhi doesn’t contact Ashina Helu?

After thinking about it carefully, Li Shen still shook his head:

“I have never thought about this. If Li Zhi had a brain, he should contact Ashina Helu.

Because Ashina Helu now has two thousand tents of soldiers and horses, not counting the ones he secretly raises.

Therefore, Xuan Ce, while dealing with the Jin Palace, also had to send people to infiltrate Ashina Helu's tribe.

It would be best to find a way to recruit one of their key members so that we can get more accurate information.

As for whether Li Zhi will make contact, that depends on God’s will.”

Li Shen has already pointed out the way, and it is not up to Li Shen to decide whether to go on it or not.

However, today's incident might make Li Zhi anxious, and he will definitely find a way.

Several people also knew that what Li Shen said was right and expressed their agreement.

Li Shen continued:

“But we can’t just wait like this, we also need to do something, such as making Ashina Helu bigger and stronger.

Wang Hongfu, lend some money to Ashina Helu's tribe and find some smooth people to contact them.

Make it look like they are being bought, and appropriately open up some tea, porcelain, and wine businesses to them.

Of course, just a little, not too much, so as not to arouse their suspicion.

I am afraid that Li Zhi will find out something after he passes by."

Li Shen was not afraid that Ashina Helu would find out, but that Li Zhi would find out.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wang Hongfu agreed.

"Okay, get up." Li Shen waved to Wang Hongfu.

Wang Hongfu stood up.

"Remember to keep your mouth shut in the future, don't tell anyone everything, it will kill you and us.

I have discovered that you have become a little too proud of yourself in recent years.

Is it because you are the head treasurer of Prince Ji's mansion and are used to being respected outside, so you forget your own identity?"

Li Shen looked at Wang Hongfu and questioned.

"I dare not, and I will never do it again." Wang Hongfu replied tremblingly.

"Wang Hongfu, remember this: don't forget your roots, and know yourself.

As long as you behave yourself, I will ensure that you will be rich and prosperous, and earn more than you can as a businessman.

But if you don't recognize yourself...

Don’t blame me for not reminding you, everything you have now was given by me, and I can take it back as well.

Including the lives of your Wang family, do you remember?"

Looking at Prince Ji's sharp eyes and threatening words, Wang Hongfu was terrified.

He knelt down again:

"I remember that I am loyal to His Royal Highness Prince Ji and I have no second thoughts. I know that everything is given by His Royal Highness, and I am grateful to him.

The villain will definitely reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors and change his ways."

In recent years, Wang Hongfu has indeed become a little arrogant. Whenever he goes out, people call him "Manager Wang". Even the noble officials in Chang'an City are more polite when they see him.

The reason is that he is the chief treasurer of Prince Ji's mansion and Prince Ji's confidant.

This made him a little swell.

People always change, especially when their identity does not match their position.

At the beginning, Li Shen would occasionally warn Wang Hongfu not to get too cocky.

But in recent years, Li Shen has become rather negligent.

However, Wang Hongfu also has his merits, which is loyalty. He is loyal to Li Shen. As the chief treasurer of Prince Ji's mansion for so many years,

Although Wang Hongfu was in charge of all the properties in Prince Ji's Mansion, he never embezzled a single penny and never accepted bribes from others to do things for them.

This is the main reason why Li Shen took a fancy to him.

In Li Shen's view, ability is not important, loyalty is the most important.

Whether you will do the work or not is a question of ability; whether you will do it or not is a question of attitude.

Looking at the kneeling Wang Hongfu, Li Shen's tone softened a bit:

“Okay, get up, I know you are loyal, otherwise do you think you would still be alive today?

Lao Wang, people should not forget their roots, you know?

I heard that your second wife is getting married in a few days, and the princess personally selected a dowry for her.

"When we go back later, you can take her away with you. The daughter of Prince Ji's mansion cannot marry too shabby, or she will be bullied by her husband's family, understand?"

"Your Highness! I was wrong. Your Highness treated me so well, but I failed you~~"

Wang Hongfu suddenly burst into tears, which frightened Li Shen.

Wang Hongfu was seen kowtowing to Li Shen repeatedly, with his head making banging sounds against the ground.

Wang Hongfu cried very sadly and kowtowed very hard, even his forehead was bleeding. The mixture of tears and blood, coupled with his sad expression, looked so weird.

"Alright, get out of here now. I'm angry when I see you now."
