"As long as you are sincere for the country, you can get the promotion of officials and knights, and the title of wife and son, I still say the same thing, except for the concubines in my harem who can't give it to you, I can give you the rest."
Li Liangzuo said to the ministers.

Li Liangzuo smiled and said, "Accompany me to the Imperial Garden to sit for a while, let's talk about the father and son." ” "Yes, the retainers are commanded" In the pavilion of the Imperial Garden, Li Liangzuo motioned for Li Yue to sit beside him, and Li Liangzuo said to Li Yue: "Yue'er, is it absolutely that I sent your two younger brothers to conquer Goryeo, and I didn't send you to feel uncomfortable."
"Erchen doesn't dare."
Li Yue immediately stood up and saluted respectfully.
Li Liangzuo pulled Li Yue to sit down and said: "Although you are not the biological son of me and the queen, but I have always treated your brothers equally, and your military exploits are no less than your two younger brothers, I admit that I have treated you badly in the title, but I also have to have my own considerations, you have to believe in your father, understand?"
"Erchen understands, Erchen is just a little uncomfortable in his heart."
Li Yue said to Li Liangzuo.
At this moment, Xiao Fuzi hurriedly ran to Li Liangzuo and said, "Your Majesty is not good, something happened to Helan Cang." ” Li Liangzuo's face immediately gloomy after hearing this, Helan Cang is a secret combat base built by Li Liangzuo for the Great Xia Kingdom, in the Helan Cang Li Liangzuo stored a large number of important strategic materials such as grain and grass, weapons, armor, etc., Helan Cang's material reserves accounted for more than one-third of the material reserves of the entire Great Xia Kingdom, in order to build Helan Cang Li Liangzuo invested a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, Helan Cang's accident was tantamount to a major blow to Li Liangzuo.
"Prepare the horse, I want to go to Helan Cang."
Li Liangzuo said with a gloomy face; "Yue'er, you go and take a battalion of the Royal Forest Army with me."
"Yes, the retainer is commanded."

"The last general, Helan Cang, see Your Majesty" "Get up" After Li Liangzuo dismounted, he threw the horsewhip to the guard and asked, "Tell me what the hell is going on" "Your Majesty, the granary on the periphery is fine, mainly the warehouse located in the cave, yesterday when digging and expanding the Tianzi No. 1 cave, the craftsmen suddenly dug up a very hard thing, it looks like a stone, but it's not, there is a bold craftsman who reached out and touched it, but he didn't expect to die on the spot, and there was black smoke all over his body."
General Helan Cangshou reported to Li Liangzuo.
Li Liangzuo frowned when he heard this, and then asked General Helan Cang, "Where is the corpse now?"
"Your Majesty, please come with the last general."
After the Helan Cangshou finished speaking, he took Li Liangzuo and others to the morgue.
In the morgue, Li Liangzuo saw the corpse, the clothes worn by the whole person had been burned, the corpse was standing with dark hair all over, and it also exuded a smell of being burned, Li Liangzuo frowned on the spot and whispered: "It seems that it should have been shocked by a strong current, but this is impossible, how can there be other electricity in this era except thunder and lightning, it is impossible to be struck by lightning in the cave, what the hell is going on" After carefully observing all the details of the corpse, Li Liangzuo had confirmed that the deceased had actually been electrocuted to death, Li Liangzuo frowned tightly and said to the general of Helan Cang with a face full of questions: "Where is the location of the accident, you take me to see." ” "Your Majesty, please" General Helan Cangshou took Li Liangzuo and others out of the morgue and went to the Tianzi No. 1 warehouse.

Li Liangzuo entered the deepest part of the weapons department, and there was a huge gap in the innermost cave wall, on which were some bulges like earthworm words, Li Liangzuo just wanted to reach out and touch it, and Helan Cangshou immediately stopped Li Liangzuo and said: "Your Majesty, you can't touch this thing, otherwise something will happen." ” Li Liangzuo looked at him with a solemn face and didn't speak, Li Liangzuo's heart was thinking about whether to touch it or not:
