Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 493 Returning to Beijing
Li Lizhi was very upset when she heard what Li Ke said, why should Wei Hao offend those ministers.

"Shen Yong is in Luoyang now, you guys should settle this matter!" Li Lizhi sat there and said.

"I guess I'll be back soon!" Li Ke said immediately before realizing that Li Lizhi's expression was wrong.

"You can't rely on Shen Yong for everything, so many ministers object? What do you ask Shen Yong to do?" Empress Changsun said immediately.

"Father means, don't let Shen Yong get involved. We should settle this matter ourselves!" Li Chengqian also nodded.

"This matter is difficult!" Li Xiaogong said with a sigh.

The other people heard it and kept silent. It was really difficult. This time, all the ministers were against it. If only some ministers objected, then it would be okay.

But now, even the left and right servants are opposed to this matter, and the six ministers are also against it, thinking that the current income of the royal family is too much, and this money should be given to the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Those people discussed in the Lizheng Hall for a long time, but there was no good solution, but Empress Changsun had a thorough understanding of the current situation, and understood that this matter needs to be dealt with by His Majesty.

After Li Lizhi returned to her palace, she thought something was wrong. She didn't want Wei Hao to participate, but if Wei Hao returned to Chang'an, it was impossible not to participate, so she went back to her study and gave Wei Hao a hand in the study. Hao wrote.

After writing the letter, Li Lizhi went out, worked around outside, and arrived at Juxian Tower.

In Juxian Building, Li Lizhi found the manager of Juxian Building and asked him to hand over the letter to Wei Furong, and asked Wei Furong to send the letter to Luoyang early tomorrow morning.

In the evening, Wei Furong began to prepare some things, which were clothes for the cold weather. Early the next morning, someone sent letters to Wei Hao in the name of delivering clothes.

Wei Furong knew very well that since Li Lizhi could not come to the mansion in person, nor could he send someone to deliver the letter to Wei Hao, he needed to avoid suspicion. Therefore, he also made some disguises to prevent others from knowing that he was sending the letter to Luoyang.

As for Wei Hao in Luoyang, he returned to Luoyang after finishing all the county inspections.

After arriving in Luoyang, Wei Hao continued to sort out his own information. In fact, Wei Hao is not in a hurry to go back now. Although he has no meeting in Chang'an, he still has some sources of news and knows the general situation of Chang'an City.

After Wei Hao saw Li Lizhi's letter, he also knew that something was wrong. These ministers united to make troubles. Behind them were those aristocratic families uniting with those nobles, and there were some humble officials. Unexpectedly, because of money, those ministers They actually joined together.

"My lord, the patriarch of an aristocratic family outside has handed me an invitation card. I hope I can meet you!" A soldier beside Wei Hao came over with an invitation card and said to Wei Hao.

"No, just say that I'm sick and it's inconvenient to see guests. Let's talk about it next time!" Wei Hao said without raising his head.

He really didn't want to see those people, but now Luoyang has gathered a large number of businessmen, and they also brought a lot of money. During this period, a lot of land in Luoyang City, as well as land in the suburbs, has been traded. People in the aristocratic family are looking for the common people to buy land, hoping to hoard the land, so that when Wei Hao starts to develop, the land they bought will be useful.

What those people did made the people in Luoyang very happy, but some far-sighted people also stopped selling those lands!

The next morning, Wei Hao didn't go out, but rested in the governor's mansion without going anywhere. When he got up in the morning, Wei Hao lay there basking in the sun without seeing anyone. He stayed for more than half a month.

Many people don't know what Wei Hao means at all, and no one knows where Luoyang's development should go. Some businessmen have begun to doubt whether Wei Hao wants to develop Luoyang.

On the other side of Chang'an, things intensified, and the ministers almost sent out memorials every day, asking the royal family to hand over the shares of some workshops to the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

And those people in the royal family are also in the court, arguing with the ministers, saying that it is the royal property, now it is already the royal family, why should they give it to the court, the quarrel is very fierce, slowly, The royal children and ministers all found that this matter really requires Wei Hao to come back. If Wei Hao does not come back, no one can solve this matter.

Li Shimin also found out now that Wei Hao really needs to come back.

"Father, do you need to call Shenyong back? If Shenyong doesn't come back, I'm worried that those ministers won't let it go. It's not a problem to make such a noise every day!" Li Chengqian sat in the Ganlu Hall, looked at Li Shimin and suggested .

"Well, I didn't want him to get involved at first, but now I can't get involved, those officials, they just keep their eyes on the royal family, almost all the ministers are like this, if this is the case, it will be difficult! " Li Shimin nodded and said worriedly.

"Then father can write a letter to tell Shen Yong to come back quickly. It's winter now, and it's about to snow heavily. Shen Yong should come back. My son estimates that this winter, Shen Yong will not be in Luoyang." There will be some action. Instead of staying in Luoyang, it is better to come back to the capital. With Shenyong around, those ministers dare not be so presumptuous. They are still a little afraid of Shenyong in this matter.

If Shenyong refuses to agree, those ministers have nothing to do. Moreover, if they dare not do anything about Shenyong, the children of the royal family will not have any objections. After all, all of this was done by Shenyong. Among the royal children, they are a bit prestige, but still not as good as Shen Yong. However, there are still some children who obey Li Zhi's words and agree to give up the interests of Luoyang! "Li Chengqian continued to report to Li Shimin.

"Well, I will write to Shen Yong later, this matter should be resolved!" Li Shimin nodded.

That night, Wei Hao received Li Shimin's letter. When Wei Hao saw it, he immediately asked his own soldiers to pack up and salute overnight. The next morning, Wei Hao set off early in the morning.

When Wang Rongyi and the others received the news that Wei Hao was going back to Chang'an, they were so surprised that they hurried to the Governor's Mansion and found that Wei Hao's convoy was leaving.

"I've met the governor, why are you in such a hurry?" Wang Rongyi asked Wei Hao.

"Well, it's getting cold, and I'm going back to Chang'an too. I need to come here in spring tomorrow. From now on, I'll report on Luoyang's affairs once every ten days. If there are any difficulties, I'll report them together. By the way, Chang'an will be allocated a few days ago." I paid [-] guan, have you received it?" Wei Hao nodded and said to Wang Rongyi.

"I received it, but I don't know what to do with the money?" Wang Rongyi looked at Wei Hao in confusion and asked, the money came, but there was no explanation, so Wang Rongyi didn't know how to spend it.

"How to spend and how to spend, but the main thing is to prepare for the winter. It has not rained for such a long time. I am worried that there may be heavy snow this winter. Store more supplies and food to keep out the cold, and try not to freeze or starve to death. !" Wei Hao said to Wang Rongyi.

"Yes, my lord, you just left. There are so many merchants in the city, as well as the heads of aristocratic families, and many noble children. They haven't seen each other yet, so what should we do? There will inevitably be criticism !" Wang Rongyi continued to ask.

"It's not convenient for me to meet them in Luoyang, let's talk about it when we go back to Chang'an!" Wei Hao said after thinking about it.

"This, yes!" Wang Rongyi understood what was going on as soon as he heard it. You can't see it here, and you can only see it in Chang'an City, but why this is so, he couldn't figure it out for a while!
"Okay, I'm going on my way in a hurry, I'll leave the matter here to you!" Wei Hao looked at Wang Rongyi and cupped his hands and said.

"Yes, then give it to the Duke!" Wang Rongyi said immediately, clasping his hands.

Wei Hao nodded, got on his horse, and set off directly for Chang'an City.

And many businessmen on the road were surprised when they heard the news. They didn't know what Wei Hao was going to do. There was no news from Luoyang, so they went back like this. Then their previous investment here, would it be worth it? will lose money?

"This, what should I do?" A businessman said anxiously.

He spent all his family's money in Luoyang. If Luoyang didn't develop, then he would be ruined.

I don't know how many businessmen like him, they didn't have any good opportunities in Chang'an before, they just thought they needed to seize this opportunity in Luoyang, but now Wei Hao didn't leave any news, why don't they let them feel uneasy.

And the patriarchs of those aristocratic families already knew in their hearts why Wei Hao went back to Chang'an. There is still an accurate statement about the internal money. Everyone is looking forward to Wei Hao's return. This matter can be resolved!

"It seems that we also need to go to Chang'an. There is probably no way to see Wei Hao here, but I guess we can see Wei Hao in Chang'an. Shen Yong may be avoiding suspicion and not wanting to get himself into such a situation." In the middle of the matter!" The head of the Du family said to the other patriarchs at the moment.

"You're sure you can see him. Now we really don't know what this kid means. We can't even see him!" Cui Family Patriarch looked at Du Family Patriarch suspiciously and asked.

"It's not a big problem!" The Patriarch of the Wei family thought about it and said.

"Then let's go to the capital. We will leave tomorrow. Today is too late. Pack up your things now. I don't think we will be able to make it to Chang'an City in the evening. Let's leave tomorrow morning!" the Patriarch of the Du family said.

The other patriarchs nodded. Now those patriarchs didn't see Wei Hao and didn't talk about Luoyang's affairs. They are worried. After all, Wei Hao needs to serve as the governor of Luoyang for a long time, and Luoyang must develop well. , then the interests here will be great, and if they don't talk about it, they don't feel at ease.

In the evening of the same day, Wei Hao arrived in Chang'an. After returning to the house, his mother Wang was very happy. Wei Hao was on a business trip for the first time. It was more than a month and almost two months. At that time, the weather It's still warm, and it's winter now.

"Hurry up, Hao'er, is it too cold?" Mrs. Wang said while holding Wei Hao's hand.

"Hao'er, now that you're leaving, the aunts are all worried, for fear that you'll be cold or hungry! You didn't even bring a maid to serve you!" Aunt Li also said happily.

"It's okay, there are so many soldiers!" Wei Hao said with a smile, and soon arrived at the living room. Wei Furong also just came over from the backyard.

"Stinky boy, why did it take so long?" Wei Furong asked Wei Hao with a smile.

"I'm the governor of Luoyang. I'm in charge of all the affairs of Luoyang. I don't know how to do it." Wei Hao looked at Wei Furong with a wry smile and said.

"Well, but the capital is not peaceful now. The royal children and officials have been arguing all the time. A few days ago, they even fought in the street!" Wei Furong sat down, looked at Wei Hao and said.

"Fight?" Wei Hao looked at Wei Furong in surprise.

"Well, the King of Yue and some officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs met on the street. You know that the King of Yue is now the Shaoyin of the Jingzhao Mansion. Sometimes he walks around the city to have a look. Unexpectedly, he met some The officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs were discussing how to present the memorial, and the King of Yue started arguing with them, and at the back, a fight broke out, and the King of Yue was even fined his salary!" Wei Furong said while looking at Wei Hao.

"Oh, don't care about them!" Wei Hao nodded, and then sat there making tea.

"Shen Yong, this matter is not small, don't get involved rashly!" Wei Furong reminded Wei Hao.

Now there are all kinds of guests here in Juxian Building, it is impossible for Wei Furong not to know the big things in the court, those who come to Juxian Building for dinner will discuss it, and gradually, Wei Furong knows the general idea.

"Father, do you think I might not get involved? If I don't get involved, no one can solve it, not even Father!" Wei Hao said with a wry smile.

"Huh?" Wei Furong looked at Wei Hao in surprise.

"Okay, dad, don't worry, I know about this matter! Mother, is the meal ready? I'm hungry!" Wei Hao immediately changed the subject, looked at Wang and asked.

"Wait a minute, mother is afraid that it will be too early, and the food will not taste good if it gets cold, so I told them to cook the food when you come back. Let's have some snacks first, let's go!" Wang took the snacks Handed it to Wei Hao.

"Hey, by the way, Shen Yong, those cold melons are growing well, and they have grown melons now, quite a few. I think there are thousands of them, big and small. Now those few people, but every day. Staring at those cold melons, it is estimated that there will be cold melons in about ten days at most!" Wei Furong said happily to Wei Hao.

Before Wei Hao left Chang'an, the seedlings of the cold melons had grown well, and now that it has been so long, the cold melons must have borne fruit.

"Okay, it's good when the result is over. I'll go and see it tomorrow. As long as it grows well, next year we will let our farmer plant seeds and buy a lot of money. Now there are many people in Chang'an City, and they are rich. There are quite a few, they are willing to eat!" Wei Hao said very happily when he heard it.

After chatting for a while, Wei Hao went to the dining room to eat. After eating, Wei Hao went back to his study, put away the things he brought from Luoyang, and then sat in the study and drank for a while After tea, I went to rest. After running for a day, Wei Hao was also a little tired.

Early the next morning, Wei Hao went directly to the palace. After returning from Luoyang, he definitely needed to go to the palace to report.Before arriving at Ganlu Hall, Wang De went in to report.

"This kid, it's really early!" Li Shimin said with a smile, and soon Wei Hao arrived at the Ganlu Palace. After seeing Wang De, Wei Hao bowed his hands to him as a greeting.

"Duke Xia, I must let you in directly!" Wang De hurriedly returned the salute and said to Wei Hao.

"Okay, thank you, Prince!" Wei Hao immediately nodded and said, and then went into the Ganlu Hall.

When he arrived at the study room, he found Li Shimin looking at something there, so Wei Hao went over to salute and said, "I have seen my father!"

"Well, are you willing to come back, kid?" Li Shimin put down the memorial, stood up, and said with a smile.

"Hey, didn't this son come back immediately after receiving the letter from the father? Father, the son hasn't had breakfast yet!" Wei Hao immediately said to Li Shimin with a smile.

"Wang De, prepare a breakfast for Shen Yong!" Li Shimin ordered, and Wang De nodded quickly.

"Do you know all the news?" Li Shimin walked to the edge of the tea table, looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"Don't you know? There is a lot of trouble, and everyone is crazy because of those two stinky money!" Wei Hao said with a wry smile.

"Well, what you said is right, it's all for these two stinky money, but, Shenyong, what should we do about this matter?" Li Shimin nodded and looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"Father, what do you want to do?" Wei Hao also stared at Li Shimin and asked.

"Well, I also know that the royal family has indeed spent a lot of money in the past two years, but as a royal family, it also needs some decent things, so the royal father didn't ask too much, but I didn't expect that there are so many ministers who don't like it." Pleasant to the eye, since they are not pleasing to the eye, what the father means is, give it to them.

The royal family also has a lot of money now. If it is according to the usual practice, the royal family has indeed taken too much money now, but then again, this money was made by you and Li Zhi, and the royal father can not give it to them, so Ah, the father wants to give it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, but the royal children have great opinions. How to persuade those children is also a problem. Shen Yong, do you have a good idea? " Li Shimin sat there staring at Wei Hao and asked.

"Give it to them? Why give it to them?" After hearing this, Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin in shock and asked.

"Ah?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao incomprehensibly. He didn't know why Wei Hao said that. He thought that Wei Hao was also on the side of those ministers. After all, the Wei family went to Wei Hao, but he didn't expect , Wei Hao actually objected.

"Father, just tell me the reason for the Ministry of Civil Affairs!" Wei Hao then stared at Li Shimin and asked.

"No, Shen Yong, so many great ministers are asking for it now!" Li Shimin reminded Wei Hao.

Wei Hao's thoughts are different from what he expected!
