Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 440 The Surprising Li Tai

Chapter 436

Wei Hao knew that Li Shimin was very tired, so he let Li Shimin go to bed first, he opened the door, and said to Wang De outside the door: "Go and tell the ministers outside to stop waiting. His Majesty is very tired now, he needs to rest, let them go back, if it is really important, come back in the afternoon! After explaining, you can come in!"

"Ah, good, I'll go and order!" Wang De heard, turned around and ran outside the hall,

And Wei Hao returned to the tea table, making tea for himself. After a while, Wang De came in lightly, then handed over to Wei Hao carefully, and then sat beside him and waited.

Outside, those ministers, including Li Chengqian and Li Ke, knew that Li Shimin was going to sleep now, and they also knew that Li Shimin hadn't slept much for two days and two nights before. The smuggling of pig iron this time made Li Shimin very angry, especially After finding out so many officials involved in the case, Li Shimin became even more angry.

So many officials are all grassroots county magistrates and Biejia, but they face the common people directly, so that how the common people evaluate Datang and how they think of the emperor of Datang.

And Li Shimin wanted to kill those officials, but so many aristocratic family heads came to intercede, even with threats in their tone, which added fuel to the fire.

"Brother, it's okay that the father is sleeping, let's go back first and come back in the afternoon!" Li Ke first cupped his hands to Li Chengqian, and then said.

"Go back, there is Shen Yong here, don't worry, Shen Yong can persuade Father Emperor, God Emperor does not listen to others, but he will listen to Shen Yong, if I knew it, I would have Shen Yong come over last night! The emperor is suffering like this!" Li Chengqian nodded and said.

When Li Ke heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Yes, Shen Yong still has the ability, the emperor trusts him so much!"

I was thinking in my heart, why would I trust him so much?Li Shimin couldn't even trust his own son, but he trusted a son-in-law so much.

Soon, those ministers left, and Li Shimin slept until noon, still urgent to urinate.

"Well, Shenyong, give me a hand, I'm numb from sleep!" Li Shimin opened his eyes and said to Wei Hao.

"Hey, father!" Wei Hao stood up quickly when he heard this, and went to pull Li Shimin up.

"Ouch, hiss! Don't move, don't move!" This was suddenly pulled up, it was numb and uncomfortable, Wei Hao stood there, waiting for him to recover.

After a while, Li Shimin said, "Wang De, help me to relieve myself! I have too much tea!"

Wang De hurried over to help Li Shimin, went to a nearby room, and came back after a while.

"Has the imperial dining room prepared any food? Tell them to make the food that Shen Yong likes!" Li Shimin asked Wang De after he came out from inside.

"I have given the order. I know His Majesty will definitely invite Duke Xia to have lunch in the palace, so I made arrangements in advance." Wang De immediately said with a smile.

"Father, if it's okay, you don't have to eat!" Wei Hao stood there and said to Li Shimin, Li Shimin just gave him a look, didn't speak, then sat there and started to make tea.

"What's the matter?" Wei Hao sat down, leaned over to look at Wei Hao and asked.

"Since you are not the Chief Prosecutor of the Overwatch Council, who do you think is the right one?" Li Shimin looked up at Wei Hao and asked.

"Father, I don't care about this. Anyone can be the one. Just don't let me be the one." Wei Hao quickly reached out his hand to indicate that he had nothing to do with him.

"Well, who will be the one? Can Ke'er be the one?" Li Shimin said while staring at Wei Hao.

And Wei Hao nodded without hesitation and said: "Okay, anyone can be it!"

"You kid, can't you be yourself? Anyone can be the one. Father wants you to be one!" Li Shimin scolded him immediately when he saw him like this. .

"Pull it down, father, you want me to do everything, I have to have that energy, father, since I promised you to work on the iron workshop, I have never rested, anyway, hum, I will not take it easy I fell for you." Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin proudly and said.

"Well, that's fine, let Ke'er be the Chief Prosecutor of the Overwatch Council, and Li Xiaogong be the Secretary of the Ministry of War." Li Shimin sat there, thinking for a while and said.

Wei Hao didn't speak, it had nothing to do with him.

"The county magistrate and Biejia below, are there any candidates to recommend?" Wei Hao asked.

"Well, no, but, Father, Wei Yu may need to serve as a coordinator, I don't know about the others!" Wei Hao thought for a while, and said to Li Shimin.

"Okay, don't drive in Luoyang!" Li Shimin agreed, and Wei Hao remained silent.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Li Shimin thought for a while and said, "Shen Yong, do you know? Just watch the official appointment this time, there must be something wrong!"

When Wei Hao heard this, he looked at Li Shimin incomprehensibly.

"Many of the officials this time are officials from the aristocratic family. Now that they have been investigated and so many positions have been vacated, the aristocratic family must not be willing to just hand them over like this, while Gao Ming and Li Ke want to Put your own people in, ha!" Li Shimin said with a smile.

"No, why should they arrange it, Your Majesty, why don't you arrange it?" Wei Hao heard it, looked at Li Shimin strangely and asked.

"Stupid boy, does Emperor Father know those officials who are lower than the seventh rank? Who does Emperor Father arrange for, and Gao Ming and Li Ke have been getting acquainted with officials who passed the imperial examination in the past two years. I hope these people can be used by them." Li Shimin looked at it. Wei Hao said with a glance.

"Isn't that right? Father, this can't work!" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin and said, feeling that this is wrong.

"It's right if it's not right, ha, when the time comes, the officials in the world will only know the prince and the king of Shu, who will know me?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao with a sneer and said,

Wei Hao felt that there was something wrong with Li Shimin, which was also caused by yourself. It’s okay to bring the King of Shu out to compete with the prince. Isn’t this enough to eat?However, Wei Hao dared not say such a thing.

"Do you know what Qingque is doing?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and asked with a smile. Wei Hao shook his head. He hadn't seen Qingque for a while.

"This kid is now trying to make money everywhere, and then, ha, bought a lot of officials below. At that time, among the officials arranged by Gao Ming and Ke'er, many of them are Qingque people. Only then did I find out that this kid is now There is a great way to do things!" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao with a smile and said,

And Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin in shock, Li Tai could still think of such a way.

"It's amazing. I haven't found out that Qingque has such an ability before. Look at this memorial. It was submitted by the Ministry of Officials. It is about the list of the county magistrate and Biejia filling the vacancy. Half of it is Qingque Bird man!" Li Shimin said and handed a memorial to Wei Hao,
Wei Hao's surprised eyes almost popped out, and he immediately took it over, and looked at it carefully, half of the list of sixty people belonged to Qingque?
"Unexpectedly, this kid, I said why I can't find him now, but he has done a lot of things behind it. In addition, don't you have three newly opened workshops in the eastern suburbs workshop area now? The one behind it is the young man. Sparrow!" Li Shimin continued to look at Wei Hao and said, Wei Hao hadn't reacted anyway, Li Tai still had the ability to do so many things quietly.

"I really underestimated Qing Que. Qing Que was very smart in reading before, and she really has a photographic memory, but she is clever, her heart is still weak, and her vision is not long-term. But now, look, I can Surprised!" Li Shimin said at the moment, stroking his beard.

"That's really good!" Wei Hao nodded and said with emotion,
Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao, and Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin a little confused.

"Father, what's the matter?" Wei Hao touched his chin subconsciously, and didn't feel anything wrong.

"It wasn't your idea?" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and asked.

"What? Father, my idea?" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin in shock, and couldn't believe his ears.

"Well, now I also feel that it's not you, otherwise, you wouldn't be so surprised, and you don't even know these things!" Li Shimin nodded, looked at Li Shimin and said.

"Father, you still think highly of me. I don't have the energy to talk to him about such things! I'm too busy now! However, Father, what you mean is that there are still high-ranking people behind Qingque." Can someone give me advice?" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin in surprise and asked.

"There must be!" Li Shimin nodded and said, soon, Wang De came over with food, and Wei Hao and Li Shimin were eating in the study room of Ganlu Palace.
After eating, Li Shimin wanted to keep Wei Hao to say something, but Wei Hao ran away quickly, but he didn't dare to stay any longer.

Just after leaving the Ganlu Hall, I saw a eunuch from the Lizheng Hall waiting for me outside.

"Duke Xia, the Empress invites you to come over! She said she hasn't seen you for a while, and now Princess Changle is also in the Lizheng Hall!" The eunuch said immediately after seeing Wei Hao.

"Okay, let's go, I haven't been there for a long time!" Wei Hao nodded, and followed the eunuch to the Lizheng Palace. At this time, Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi also finished their meal.

"I have seen my mother!" Wei Hao said, cupping his hands.

"Well, come on, Shenyong, come and sit down here, have you eaten in the Ganlu Hall?" Empress Changsun called Wei Hao to sit down at the tea table, and Wei Hao also walked over with a smile.

"Yes, Father kept me for lunch!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

"Well, but I haven't been in the palace for a while, do you have any complaints about the queen mother?" Empress Changsun stared at Wei Hao and asked.

"Ah, no, queen mother, why do you say that? The main reason is that the son is lazy. After a few days of vacation, he didn't go there. He hides at home and sleeps every day!" Wei Hao said in surprise when he heard it.

"Mother, it's true, he didn't even go out, or sister Siyuan and I went to see him at his house!" Li Lizhi immediately spoke for Wei Hao.

"Well, the empress mother thought that you had something against the empress mother because of your uncle's affairs! You have become estranged from the empress mother!" Empress Changsun sat there, looked at Wei Hao with a chuckle and said.

"Well, you don't have to worry about my uncle and I. There is no way, my uncle has no intention of letting me go. To be honest, my son can't believe my uncle anymore, so let it be like this. Don't worry, my mother. There are some etiquettes that I will never forget!" Wei Hao immediately cupped his hands to Empress Changsun.

When Empress Changsun heard this, she sighed in her heart, knowing that there was no way to reconcile the conflict between Wei Hao and Changsun Wuji.

"My queen, I don't mean uncle, you just look at uncle. In the court, there is no one who is close to him. No one dares to get close to him. Uncle likes to plot people too much!" Li Lizhi sat down. There, he helped Wei Hao speak.

"Well, good, just remember not to forget those etiquettes. Your father also has a lot of opinions on your uncle. In the past two years, your uncle has done a lot of stupid things." Empress Changsun said with a sigh.

"Well, maybe it will be all right in two years, and the queen mother doesn't have to worry." Wei Hao looked at the eldest grandson queen and said with a smile.

"Well, come on, let's drink tea. By the way, I heard that you let Lizhi work in the workshop of making porcelain plates. Is it time to release it now?" Empress Changsun poured tea for Wei Hao with a smile and asked.

"It's not that Lizhi said that there is nothing to do. I'll let her help me with the preparations first, and let her do the preliminary work first. Then I'll take the time to check it out! The queen mother, the royal family is still [-]%, and the remaining [-]% , my son will see who will share it with, do you think it would be good?" Wei Hao looked at the eldest grandson empress and asked.

"Okay, the royal family has depended entirely on you these past few years. Otherwise, how could they be so comfortable now?" Empress Changsun nodded and said with a smile, and then said to Li Lizhi: "Isn't it for you to assist the crown princess in managing those royal families?" What about it? Why didn't you go?"

"Mother, I'm going. Now that my sister-in-law is familiar with her, I don't need to go." Li Lizhi immediately pouted and said to the eldest grandson empress.

"Oh, he's familiar. How did the empress hear that Su Rui is the person who manages the porcelain workshop now, and has asked many merchants to give him money. Is there such a thing?" Empress Changsun looked at Li Li asked.

"Ah, I don't know about that. After all, I'm not in charge of these things now." Li Lizhi said pretending to be surprised.

"Well, it's outrageous!" Empress Changsun said angrily while sitting there, Wei Hao and Li Lizhi didn't hear it.Then Empress Changsun said something else to Wei Hao, and Wei Hao left the palace.

Li Lizhi came out with Wei Hao.

"The empress mother knows it clearly, but she doesn't deal with it, and she says something outrageous!" Li Lizhi whispered to Wei Hao while walking.

"Maybe before the time comes, you don't have to worry about those things. Can you take care of those things in the house?" Wei Hao reminded Li Lizhi with a smile.

"That can definitely be taken care of. It's not just about the accounts. You only need to go to the field a few times to know whether there are discrepancies in the accounts. Don't worry. By the way, the land of the Porcelain Plate Workshop is almost done. When the time comes I'll go to your house to get the drawings!" Li Lizhi said to Wei Hao,

Wei Hao nodded and told her to go and get it anytime.

After leaving the palace, Wei Hao went straight to his mansion. There were many people waiting for him at the gate of the mansion, hoping that he could intercede, but Wei Hao ignored them and entered the mansion directly.

And at this moment, in Juxian Building, those Patriarchs have just finished eating in Juxian Building.

"Patriarch Wei, you can't take us to the Wei Mansion. Even if we send a greeting card, Wei Hao won't be there!" The head of the Du family looked at Wei Yuanzhao and asked.

"Oh, I really can't get in. Shen Yong seems to avoid this matter on purpose, and doesn't want to have much to do with it. I said that your people are too bold and dare to do anything!" Wei Yuan Looking at them helplessly, Zhao said.

"Wei Yuanzhao, we are not your Wei family. With one Wei Hao, your Wei family can accomplish a lot of things, even if you want money, but we need to find a way. The following children do this without telling us. Yes, something happened, and we have to save him. Hey, brother, please help. This morning, after Wei Shenyong went to the palace, His Majesty went to bed. He hadn't slept before, which shows how much His Majesty trusts Shen Yong! Cui Xian, the head of the Cui family, looked at Wei Yuanzhao helplessly and said.

"That's right, Patriarch Wei, if you don't go, we don't know how much our family will suffer this time. In the past few years, no children have entered the court as officials, and now a few will be killed. , let alone no one from our family, Patriarch Wei, you can't stand by and watch." Wang Hairuo, the patriarch of the Wang family, also said to persuade Wei Yuanzhao.

Wei Yuanzhao was very embarrassed at the moment, he knew that his face was not that big, and even if he went by himself, Wei Hao might not meet them, so he looked at them with a wry smile and said: "I really can't do anything about this, Wei Hao really can't help it." Will give me this face, otherwise, you can try to find His Highness the Crown Prince or His Highness the King of Shu to see if it works. If it doesn’t work, then go to Li Jing. easy!"

When the few of them heard this, they couldn't help but rolled their eyes. It's too late for the three of them to avoid hurting themselves, and they can help them beg Wei Hao.

"Otherwise, you are here, I am going to call Wei Furong up, but Wei Furong may not be willing to help, you pushed the matter on Wei Furong back then!" Wei Yuanzhao continued to look at them and said, they heard , also sigh.

"That's why we need to go to Wei's mansion to apologize. This is a big misunderstanding. We don't know what the people below are doing. Chief Wei, please think of a way!" The head of the Lu family cupped his hands at Wei Yuanzhao and said ,
At this time, outside the door, one of Wei Yuanzhao's managers came in and said, "Master, King Yue is outside. He said he heard that you are eating here, so he came here to toast you!" "Oh, let him in!"

Wei Yuanzhao also felt strange when he heard it, but he still kept Li Tai simple,
At this time, Li Tai came in with a round body, smiling, with a wine glass in his hand.

"Haha, I heard that all the patriarchs are here, and this king happens to be having dinner next door, so I came here to toast, I'm sorry for disturbing you!" Li Tai said to them with a smile.
