Chapter 449
Chapter 445

Wei Hao was very angry when he heard Li Ke's words. What is not well defined can be discussed, but now, those people are silent and don't say whether it is okay, which makes Wei Hao very annoyed.

"Shen Yong, you don't have to be so anxious. After all, such a big regulation can't be discussed for a period of time. Father also needs to rely on those ministers to govern the world. If those ministers oppose it strongly, there is no way to implement it at that time. Yes, so, it is useless for you to get angry about this matter, and the ministers need to respond!" Li Ke sat there and said to Wei Hao.

"Hmph, I finally understand, those ministers are nothing more than that!" Wei Hao said with a sneer, they all seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and they are all for their own plans, and they don't care about ordinary people.

"Shen Yong, please calm down about this matter first, I guess the emperor will definitely look for you, and then I will let you argue with those ministers in the court, in fact, Shen Yong, it is not wise to do this!" Li Ke sat There, looking at Wei Hao, he said,

He wants to show his favor to Wei Hao, and now he also knows Wei Hao's ability and skill, and how much he is valued by Li Shimin. If he can persuade Wei Hao to support him, then he will definitely have a better chance. As for Li Lizhi, she is not the sister of his own mother It doesn't matter, I don't have a sister with the same mother, and I have a good relationship with Li Lizhi, so I definitely won't say that I treated this sister badly.

When Wei Hao heard this, he smiled inwardly, thinking, since Li Shimin wants to quarrel with him, you don't let him go, what do you mean?
Wei Hao understood Li Ke's thoughts very well. He knew that Li Ke wanted to persuade him not to confront those ministers, but Wei Hao would not listen. This time, he confronted those ministers not for himself, but for the people of the world. In order to regulate the officials of the world, no one can persuade them, even if it is Li Shimin who persuades them.

"Well, thank you Your Highness! I'll think about it!" Wei Hao stood there, nodded and said.

"You have to think carefully, Shen Yong. After all, you have been in the officialdom for several years. Many things are like this. It may not be a good thing to break him rashly." Li Ke nodded in agreement and said to Wei Hao. Wei Hao also nodded. nodded,
At this time, a yamen servant came in and said to Wei Hao: "Left Shaoyin, You Shaoyin, Wannian County magistrate Wei Chen begs to see you!"

"Let him come in!" Wei Hao nodded and said when he heard it. Soon, Wei Chen came in with some snacks.

"I've seen Wei Shaoyin, I've seen the King of Shu!" Wei Chen came over and saluted them.

"Well, brother Jinxian, sit down and talk!" Wei Hao said to Wei Chen with a smile.

"Just took office as county magistrate, how about you, are you still used to it?" Li Ke also said to Wei Chen with a smile. He knew that Wei Chen was Wei Hao's brother, and the two had a very good relationship.

"I'm still used to it. It's mainly Wannian County's affairs. It's been planned before. I just need to do it step by step. There's nothing difficult?" Wei Chen said to Li Ke with a smile.

"Come here this time, what's the matter?" Wei Hao looked at Wei Chen and asked.

"Back to Shaoyin, it's like this. During this period of time, I also visited all the areas under the rule and found that there are still many problems in each area. The main problem is the hygiene problem. In the old city, many people can be found everywhere. Urinating and defecating, there is no way to prohibit it, mainly because there are no public latrines,

Therefore, I also want to build public huts in some areas on the east side of the city, and there are also some gardens, and there is no place for ordinary people to go to play, but they can’t find a solution. This is very bad, so I planned 30 sits in a public hut, I brought the map, and I have estimated the accounts, it is estimated that 5000 yuan will be needed, and the county government still has it. Do you think this will work? As Wei Chen spoke, he took out the map and spread it out on the table.
When Wei Hao heard this, he nodded and carefully looked at the planned locations of those public latrines.

"Well, very good, very reasonable, yes, Brother Jinxian, this plan is very good, but Wannian County needs to reserve a part of the money as a spare for winter, you know, every winter, there will be many refugees Outside of Chang'an City, your county government is responsible for rescue, and besides, are the food reserves ready?" Wei Hao sat there, looked at Wei Chen and asked.

"Food has been in the process of buying. Up to now, we have purchased about 2 tons of grain. It is estimated that we can rescue 2 people for 4 months. We are still buying. We plan to purchase 10 tons. Now we are waiting for the autumn grain to come. When it is down, we will buy it and stock it up!

I have also made a budget for the money for the winter, and it is generally enough. It is estimated that by the time of winter, the county government still has about 6 guan of money, which is enough for rescue. In previous years, the cost of rescue in Wannian County was only 4 guan. And this year, we have prepared so much food, it is probably enough! "Wei Chen reported to Wei Hao, and Li Ke was listening beside him.

"Okay, [-] is enough. If it's not enough, we don't have so much to do. It must be a catastrophe. The court needs to help. Yes, let's do it. Moreover, this year we are also in the Zhuangzi outside. We have bought a lot of resettlement houses, and once there is a catastrophe, some of the people can go to those places!" Wei Hao said very satisfied when he heard what he said.

"Sure, by the way, there is one more thing, that is, isn't Princess Changle going to open a porcelain plate workshop? Now they bought land in the west city, but I want to ask if they want to build one in the suburbs of the east city as well. , outside the east city, about ten miles away from Chang'an City, clay was also found,
If Princess Changle wants to repair the workshop, our county government can pay for it and repair the roads so that they can move in. A porcelain plate workshop can bring thousands of people to work, and the tax revenue it brings is also quite a lot ! "Wei Chen looked at Wei Hao and asked with a smile.

"I can't promise you this matter. You need to talk to your younger siblings in person. Anyway, she will go to Juxian Building for dinner every few days. Tell my father to wait for her to eat there. When the time comes, you go to visit and talk to him!" Wei Hao said to Wei Chen with a smile.

"Hey, it's done, it's done!" Wei Chen said happily when he heard it.

"By the way, you also need to make plans for next year. What Wannian County needs to do next year. The money allocated to Wannian County next year will not be less than 20 yuan. Therefore, how to spend this money depends on you. Use your brains, do good things for the people and do practical things!" Wei Hao looked at Wei Chen and reminded.

"Yes, I'm also considering this matter, mainly because I want to build some docks so that the ships on both sides can pass through faster, and I want to purchase a few large ships specially loaded with horse-drawn carriages to cross the river, in this way, it can also speed up The materials and people on both sides of the strait pass quickly!" Wei Chen said to Wei Hao while sitting there.

"Well, buy a boat? Wait a minute, I want to build this bridge well, so I don't want to buy a boat. I plan to apply for money from the court next month to build bridges over the Bahe River and the Weihe River. Use autumn to build it in a short time!" Wei Hao thought about it, and said to Wei Chen.

"To build a bridge, this, Shen Yong, I'm afraid it won't work. These two rivers are very wide, and there is no way to build them. The Ministry of Industry has considered it several times, and they all think it is not possible!" Wei Chen was surprised when he heard this. looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"It can be done, that's enough, go get busy, make plans for next year, and I have to think about it here!" Wei Hao nodded with a smile, and he was not annoyed when he just called himself Shenyong, he was talking about business , he couldn't call his own name, but Wei Chen was shocked just now, so Wei Hao pretended he didn't hear it.

"Success, success, those two Shaoyins were chatting, and I will plan to do it right away, but you still need to sign for it!" Wei Chen said to Wei Hao, pointing to the planning map, Wei Hao took the plan to the desk, immediately signed his name, and handed it to Wei Chen.

After Wei Chen left, Li Ke smiled and said to Wei Hao: "I have to say, this Wei Chen is really good. Look, he started to take over the work, and he also did some practical things. Well, I, Datang, need such a county magistrate!"

"Well, it's not bad. By the way, hasn't Changsun Chong come to our side to report?" Wei Hao said while sitting there, looking at Li Ke.

"It is estimated that the handover is still underway. There are many things in Chang'an County. Besides, Changsun Chong may not know how to govern a county!" Li Ke smiled and said to Wei Hao, thinking in his heart, Changsun Chong is not Wei Shen, Wei Chen is taught by you, his eldest Sun Chong has no such relationship.

Then the two chatted for a while, Wei Hao went out to see the construction site,
Near noon, Wei Hao was just about to go back when he saw someone from the East Palace sent over to look for him.

"Wei Shaoyin, the East Palace invites you to come over here, and I want you to report on the Jingzhao Mansion!" An official came from the East Palace. Wei Hao nodded immediately when he heard it, and said to the official that he had to go first. A trip to Jingzhao Mansion,

After arriving at the Jingzhao Mansion, Li Ke was not found, so Wei Hao could only go there by himself. After arriving at the East Palace, the official led him to the side hall. Just after arriving at the side hall, Wei Hao found out that Li Chengqian was alone watching Write a memorial.

"Chen, I have met His Royal Highness!" Wei Hao said, cupping his hands.

"Yeah, why are you still polite to me?" Li Chengqian heard Wei Hao's voice, looked up at Wei Hao with a smile and said.

"That's right, uncle, you still have to salute at the beginning, otherwise people will say that I don't understand the rules!" Wei Hao said to Li Chengqian with a smile.

"Come, serve!" Li Chengqian greeted Wei Hao, then shouted, and immediately a maid came over with food and put it on the table next to him.

"It's just the two of us eating, and for the others, I won't bark. When the time comes, we'll divide your life. Let's talk!" Li Chengqian said to Wei Hao with a smile.

"Success!" Wei Hao said indifferently, and soon, the food was served, and two maids in the back were serving drinks.

"Shen Yong doesn't drink, you take it away! Put Gu's wine here, Gu will come by himself!" Li Chengqian said to the two maids.

"Forget it, let me accompany you for a drink. I'll just drink a small cup. You can do whatever you want. I don't dare to drink too much. I have to go to the construction site in the afternoon." Wei Hao said to Li Chengqian.

"Okay, okay, haha, it's rare for you to drink, okay, you can drink as much as you want!" Li Chengqian said very happily when he heard it.

"Well, good!" Wei Hao nodded and said, and then Li Chengqian greeted Wei Hao to eat the dishes. These dishes are still very good, and the imperial chefs in the palace have all learned their skills from Juxian Building.

"You know about the matter of going to court in the morning, right? The father is so angry? Those officials are very much in favor of what you said about changing exile to hard labor, but they are opposed to your second memorial of high salary and honesty. Yes, it was difficult to understand at first. Isn’t it good for them to have a high income? Why should they object?
It was only later that I realized that those people were basically corrupt and dereliction of duty, which is probably very serious. Therefore, they were afraid, especially a little bit, that within the fifth generation, they could not take part in the imperial examination and could not enter the court. officer, this is the most fatal to them,
They want to be corrupt, they want their children to live, and they want their children to continue to take the imperial examinations in the future. Ha, they are really good at calculating. They can think of things that are good for them, and they are silent about things that are not good for them. Why is it so difficult to define what is corruption and what is not, what is dereliction of duty and what is not? " Li Chengqian sat there and said to Wei Hao,

Wei Hao heard it, smiled wryly, then picked up the wine glass, and said to Li Chengqian: "Come, have a drink!"

"Well, I've done it, you can do whatever you want!" Li Chengqian said to Wei Hao. After drinking, Wei Hao ate two mouthfuls of food, and Li Chengqian did the same.

"Shen Yong, I want to facilitate this matter!" Li Chengqian looked at Wei Hao and said.

"Uncle, it's not wise for you to do this. You are sending all the ministers to the king of Shu!" Wei Hao said with a smile.

"Ha, Shen Yong, don't laugh at me. I am the prince. Although he has stood up now and wants to fight for my crown prince, as long as I am a prince, I will fight for things that are beneficial to the country. Although, there is a possibility that I will not be able to sit in that position,
But now that I am the crown prince, I need to think about the future of the Tang Dynasty. If I can't do this, then what kind of prince should I be, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages?This is something done by a courtier. No matter what I say, I am also a half-lord. If I don’t stand up for such a thing, who will stand up?you?Even you dare to stand up, why can't I?
If I dare not, how can I be a prince if I have any virtue? Hearing Wei Hao's words, Li Chengqian immediately said to Wei Hao with a wry smile,

When Wei Hao heard it, he couldn't help admiring him. Although he was a little unreliable in many cases, he was very accurate in front of big right and wrong. In this regard, he had to be convinced.

"Come on, uncle, I'll do what you said just now!" Wei Hao raised his wine glass and said to Li Chengqian.

"Ah?" Li Chengqian was stunned when he heard it, what did he do?

"Wait, don't worry, don't worry, the two of us still have to chat. If you are drunk, how can you chat?" Li Chengqian immediately persuaded Wei Hao.

"Uncle, my drinking capacity is not that bad, come on!" Wei Hao said while looking at Li Chengqian with a smile.

"Succeed, I'm going to sleep in the East Palace when I'm drunk!" Li Chengqian heard this, raised his wine glass, clinked glasses with Wei Hao, then did it, and Wei Hao did the same. After finishing, Wei Hao hurriedly picked up the food eat.

"Eat more, take it easy, you're not used to drinking!" Li Chengqian hurriedly said to Wei Hao, who also nodded.

"I'm going to confront them about this matter. Just watch from behind. I won't believe it when I come. I can't deal with them. I, Wei Hao, have no other skills but the skills to fight!" Wei Wei After Hao took two bites, he said to Li Chengqian.

"That won't work. I'm going to do this too. When I come back today, the more I think about it, the more angry I get. Okay, all the good things are taken away, and the bad things are not on your body. Is this what an official does?" Li Chengqian sat there and shook his head. Said.

"You, the combat power is not good. You may be speechless when you are attacked by others. It's not necessary, you just support it. In addition, do you know what the officials in the East Palace think?" Wei Hao looked at Li Chengqian asked.

"Basically they all support you. I found that those who come from the poor are very supportive, but those from aristocratic families are all opposed, so there may be something to do here!" Li Chengqian looked at Wei Hao said with a smile.

"What are you talking about? How many of the local county magistrates and officials are from poor families? Most of them are from aristocratic families. Now they must be against it.
Don't let the local officials express their views on this matter, don't give them a chance to express their views, and resolve it directly in the court, let them react, even if they react, there is nothing they can do! " Wei Hao sat there, smiled and said, Li Chengqian heard it, and looked at Wei Hao incomprehensibly.

"Think about it, if those county magistrates, governors, and others are against it, what should the father do? Should we consider local stability? Let's not ask about it now, just implement it directly, so that they can't express it even if they want to express it. !" Wei Hao looked at Li Chengqian and said,
Li Chengqian heard it, thought about it, and nodded, really, if those governors don't write a letter to object, then it will be difficult for the father to make a choice, and it will be difficult to implement it.

"So, three days later, when I go to court, I want to meet them!" Wei Hao said with a sneer.

"However, I have to say that under your governance, Chang'an City and Wannian County are indeed much stronger than before, and the changes have been great. Even the people in the royal family Zhuangzi say that you are a good county magistrate. , is a good county magistrate who works for the common people, unfortunately, you were transferred away,
Many people scolded you when they learned that you were transferred so quickly, but they learned that you are now in charge of the entire Jingzhao Mansion, not only in Wannian County, but also in Chang'an County. It is estimated that the people may go to your house to make trouble! " Li Chengqian looked at Wei Hao with a smile and said, admiring Wei Hao's ability in his heart.
