Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 494
Li Shimin was surprised when he heard Wei Hao's words. This was different from what he had thought before. Li Shimin thought that Wei Hao would definitely agree to give it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, but now hearing Wei Hao's meaning, he completely disagrees.

"I said bastard, you should think about it carefully. If you don't give it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, those ministers will impeach you. At that time, the emperor will have to deal with you and give those ministers an explanation!" Li Shimin sat there and warned Wei Hao.

"Cut, I'm afraid of them? Father, just say, will they impeach me and make me lose my head?" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin indifferently and said.

"How is that possible? Without father's permission, who would dare to let you lose your head?" Li Shimin waved his hand and said, without his own consent, no one would dare to kill Wei Hao.

"Then it's over, what can they do with me? Give it back to the Ministry of Civil Affairs? Why give it to the Ministry of Civil Affairs? The Ministry of Civil Affairs can only collect taxes. If the Ministry of Civil Affairs is involved in the work of the workshop, then you let those businessmen How to live? At that time, the business of the whole world will be decided by the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Father, we can give these workshops to anyone, but we must not give them to the Minbu. If they are given to the Minbu, the businessmen in the world will have no way to go, and the people in the world will have no way to live?Besides, Lizhi and I bought all the shares in the inner money. We gave the inner money because of our filial piety. It is because we want to honor the father and the queen. What does it have to do with the Ministry of Civil Affairs?
Seeing how much I have given now, the Ministry of Civil Affairs asks for it. Is there any reason for this?Is it their personal?And my workshop, if I don't give my father and mother shares, why should I give them?I don't know how to make money myself, but I still have to share it with them. Father, do you think this is the reason? "Wei Hao sat there and said to Li Shimin.

"Hey, you're right when you say that. It really has nothing to do with those people. It's all made by you. Why should you give it to them? It's not related to them!" Li Shimin nodded and said. .

"Originally, father, I wanted to come back a long time ago, but considering, let those ministers make trouble, the more violent the trouble, the better, it's not clear, right? You know, so let's make it clear , once and for all in the future, as for them saying that there is too much money in the family, and it was squandered on the children of the royal family, yes, there may be such a situation, but the royal family can control it more strictly in the future, there is no need to say that the royal family should take out the money , This is unreasonable." Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin and continued talking.

"En! How do you say something? Drinking poison to quench thirst, yes, that's what it means." Li Shimin nodded and said to Wei Hao.

"Originally, I admit that I was wrong, but now they want to take it all together. That's two different things, isn't it?" Wei Hao nodded and said in agreement.

When Li Shimin heard it, he stood up and walked in the study with his hands behind his back, thinking about Wei Hao's words.

After thinking about it for a while, he stopped, and said to Wei Hao: "You are right, the royal family is wrong, and the royal family has changed, but this money cannot be given to the Ministry of Civil Affairs. In fact, the royal father also knows that the royal family is a bit too much this time. A few years, I made a lot of money, but I didn't save it. My father thought before, let the internal money save some money, so that I can deal with Xue Yantuo in the north, Tubo, and Tuyuhun. Once there is a war, it will cost a lot of money. For those with little money, the emperor was worried that the Ministry of Civil Affairs would not have enough money, so it would be paid from the royal family, but I didn’t expect that in the past two years, I spent too much money, which made the ministers have opinions!"

"Understandable, I didn't have money before, but now I have money, I must buy what I saw, but I bought too much, and I gradually stopped buying!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

"Well, this matter, once you say it like this, the emperor will understand and know what to do, but, Shen Yong, you may really be attacked by those ministers at that time!" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao Said.

After Wei Hao said this, he felt much more relaxed, but considering that Wei Hao still needs to talk about this matter, he was also worried that Wei Hao would be attacked by those ministers at that time.

"What are you afraid of? Single-handedly fight with them, and I can still be afraid of them? Father, is breakfast ready? I'm hungry. I came here on horseback. Before I got up, I practiced martial arts!" Wei Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin and asked.

"Wang De!" Li Shimin shouted immediately after hearing this.

"Your Majesty!" Wang De immediately ran in from the outside and cupped his hands.

"Ask if breakfast is ready, hurry up, Shen Yong is hungry!" Li Shimin said to Wang De.

"Yes, Your Majesty, my little one, hurry up now!" Wang De immediately left after hearing this.

"It's better not to fight, the new year is coming soon, and you will get married after the spring, so it's better not to go to the prison!" Li Shimin thought about it, and said to Wei Hao.

"Oh, it's okay, it's a big deal, by the way, I heard that Hou Junji is digging coal now, can he do it?" Wei Hao thought of this, his previous proposal was passed, and in the future, if he finds someone corrupt Rot, children within the fifth generation cannot enter the court as officials, and unless they commit rebellion, murder, and other crimes, they are all to do labor, such as digging coal, iron ore, etc. Anyway, they cannot be left idle.

"I don't know yet, I've been gone for almost a month, but Father thinks it won't be easy for him to be there, but after all, he's spared his life!" Li Shimin shook his head and said, he didn't want Hou Junji to die in his heart, As long as he is not dead, he can be used whenever the court wants to use him.

"That's fine, I guess I won't die!" Wei Hao said with a smile when he heard it.

"Well, let's not talk about other things, let's talk about this matter. Will you come over tomorrow?" Li Shimin asked Wei Hao.

Wei Hao heard it and looked at Li Shimin.

"Why are you looking at the emperor?" Li Shimin asked Wei Hao, staring at Wei Hao puzzled.

"Father, my son is here, but you can't cheat me. I will definitely argue with them about this matter, but you can't cheat me about other things!" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin very carefully. Said.

"Stinky boy, when did the father cheat you?" Li Shimin was furious, what is this called, what do you mean cheating him by yourself, is he that kind of person?

"Hey!" Wei Hao laughed, of course Li Shimin knew what he meant.

"You son of a bitch, you are going to get married soon, why did your father cheat you?" Li Shimin cursed at Wei Hao.

"That's fine, then I'll come over!" Wei Hao nodded.

At this time, Wang De came in with the maids, all of whom were carrying food.

"Your Majesty, Duke Xia, it's time for breakfast." Wang De said with a smile.

"Well, put it on, Shenyong, eat first!" Li Shimin said to Wei Hao.

Wei Hao won't be polite to him, he's really hungry, besides, why should he be so polite when eating from his father-in-law's house?So he sat there and started eating. Those buns and dumplings, Wei Hao would not let them go. After the meal was over, Wei Hao sat there and touched his stomach, feeling much better.

"By the way, my father should report to you about Luoyang's affairs. My son has prepared three memorials. One is about the current situation of Luoyang City and the areas that need to be changed urgently. The second is about how to develop. Luoyang's economy and improvement of people's living standards, as well as the planning of the entire Luoyang, the third is about the training and reform of the government soldiers, please read it!" Wei Hao took out three memorials, which were very thick. Give it to Li Shimin.

"Oh, just tidy it up?" Li Shimin took it very curiously, and couldn't wait to open it and look at it.

Read the first book first, read it very carefully, sometimes frown and sometimes sigh.

Then I read the second book, and I feel much better. Wei Hao is very clear about the planning of the whole Luoyang, including how many workshops need to be built, and how to build the roads. He knew that Wei Hao had made a comprehensive consideration, but Li Shimin was a little skeptical about one thing.

"Shen Yong, there is no problem with other fathers, but this is the only thing. Look at Shen Yong. There are more than [-] workshops of various kinds. Are there so many workshops? You made them all?" Li Shimin Looking at Wei Hao in shock, he asked.

"Well, almost, I have considered some things clearly, and I am still thinking about some others, but they will mature soon!" Wei Hao nodded and said to Li Shimin.

"There are so many workshops, Shen Yong, you know that if the benefits are good, what a huge profit it will be. If you release this memorial, those ministers will argue with you tomorrow, and they will give up such a big profit. The Ministry of Civil Affairs Those officials here, they can fight you desperately!" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and reminded.

Wei Hao just smiled.

"Oh, you boy, hahaha!" Seeing Wei Hao like this, Li Shimin immediately figured it out, knowing that those ministers might really dare not do anything to Wei Hao, these workshops, only Wei Hao will, other people No, if you want to make money, you still have to rely on Wei Hao. At this time, who would dare to do anything to Wei Hao.

"I'm still afraid of them, but Father, if Luoyang is really built as planned, then Luoyang may have a population of three million, and the annual profit may exceed 1000 million. It's very big, so my son is also worried now, should I build so many at once!" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin and said worriedly.

"I can't build so many. Father will not show this memorial to anyone. Of course, I will talk to those ministers, but I can't show it to them! If they find out, something big may happen in Luoyang. Father knows that many people buy land there because they know that you are the governor there, and they know that you will definitely develop that place, and only father knows about this memorial!" Li Shimin said to Wei Hao.

"Okay, listen to my father!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

"You boy, it's right to ask you to be the governor of Luoyang. Okay, father, let's see what you think about the government soldiers!" Li Shimin opened the last memorial after speaking.

At this time, many ministers had already come outside, and they wanted Wang De to report, but Wang De refused to go, because Li Shimin had already confessed that when he was talking with Wei Hao, no one was there.

"I said Wang Gonggong, we have something to ask His Majesty, why don't you report it?" Dai Zhou, Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, looked at Wang Gonggong and said.

"Going back to Dai Shangshu, really can't, His Majesty is talking with Xia Guogong now!" Wang De said quickly.

"Duke Xia is here. When did he come to the palace so actively?" Gao Shilian looked at Wang De in surprise and asked.

"Yes, I came here early in the morning, and we have been talking for almost half an hour. It is estimated that there will be a while. Ministers, if there is nothing important, you should go back first!" Wang De turned to Gao Shilian again. Said the salute.

"It's okay, let's wait, the talk should be almost over, and you can inform us later!" Gao Shilian didn't want to leave, Wei Hao came back, this key person came back, and those ministers also wanted to find a chance , Talk to Wei Hao, hoping to win over Wei Hao, so that the royal family can hand over those workshops.

"Okay, then everyone don't make noise. It's not good for His Majesty Longyan to blame you." Wang De nodded and said.

"Don't even mention it, Shenyong is trusted. He just came back and talked for so long inside, and His Majesty didn't see anyone." Dai Zhou looked at Li Jing and said with a smile.

"This kid has just finished his trip to Luoyang. His Majesty must have a lot of questions for him. It's normal for him to ask for a long time." Li Jing said, stroking his beard.

"I said Pharmacist, you need to do a good job of Shen Yong's thinking in this matter, but you need to let him stand on our side, but don't be drawn over by the royal side, Shen Yong is the key to this matter !” Gao Shilian looked at Li Jing and said.

"This old man knows, but you also know that this kid has his own ideas. In terms of status, he is similar to me. In terms of ability, the old man is not as good as him in many places. Therefore, I can't guarantee whether I can persuade you, but I will Go talk." Li Jing nodded and said.

The others also nodded after listening.Now everyone wants to persuade Wei Hao, and everyone knows that if Wei Hao is not persuaded, all their actions now are useless.In the Ganlu Hall, Li Shimin has now read the memorial written by Wei Hao about the soldiers.

"Well, your proposal is very fresh, very meritorious, simple!" Li Shimin said to Wei Hao after reading Wei Hao's memorial.

"Father, don't laugh at me, you know, I haven't really been on the battlefield yet, and I don't understand military matters, but I looked at the Fubing and found that those levels are too complicated to understand at all, so I came up with a military rank system, and I see that the training of those government soldiers is also training during the slack season, and the busy farming is labor, which is equivalent to the reserve army. Therefore, the son-in-law proposed the training system for the government soldiers, as well as combat Troops, take a good look, I’m just writing nonsense!” Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin with a smile and said, he wrote this according to the military system of later generations, it’s so simple!
"Not to mention, it's really good. A platoon has more than 40 people, a company has more than 120 people, a battalion has more than 800 people, a regiment has more than 4000 people, a division has more than 16000 people, and an army has more than 6 people. Not bad, not bad!" Li Shimin thought carefully Looking at what Wei Hao wrote, he nodded in appreciation and said.

"My son's main consideration is that once the main general is damaged in the battle on the front line, someone below will replace him. In the army, he obeys orders according to his rank. The highest general is the Minister of the Ministry of War and those generals, such as my father-in-law. For example, Cheng Yaojin and the others, the lieutenant general is the main general stationed on the front line now, one general manages several lieutenant generals, and the major general is the commander of the main arms of each army.

In addition, because the duty of protecting the palace is very high, the main commander must be an admiral, and the captain should be assigned as the head of the colonel. "Wei Hao continued to speak to Li Shimin.

"Father, I want to discuss this matter with the generals. I think your training system is very good, and recruiting troops from different places is also very good. This can increase the combat capability of the army. It is very good, very good, and very valuable!" Li Shimin said very much. Said for sure.

Wei Hao's memorial gave Li Shimin a new understanding of the reform of the army. Wei Hao's plan is very simple. The army needs simplicity. Too complicated will delay the opportunity of the war!

"That's fine. You can discuss it with them. When the time comes, you can improve the details by yourself. I don't understand. Father, I don't have anything to do here. I'll go to the Lizheng Hall to see the queen mother!" Wei Hao Said to Li Shimin.

"You son of a bitch, can't you just sit down for a while? Father still has a lot of things to tell you, don't worry, this morning, there are only two of us, Weng and son-in-law, and father will not see anyone. You have three memorials, but father is not in a hurry. I need to study it carefully and discuss it with you, so don’t worry, Wang De, come here!” Li Shimin greeted Wang De as he spoke.

Wang De heard it from outside, and immediately ran over to come in.

"I don't see anyone this morning. If any ministers come, you can tell them that you have something to come in the afternoon, unless it is very urgent." Li Shimin instructed Wang De.

"Yes, Your Majesty, it's just that there are many ministers outside, and they are all waiting for His Majesty's summoning!" Wang De replied immediately, clasping his hands.

"You let them go back first, I don't have time to see them now, I still need to discuss things with Shen Yong." Li Shimin said to Wang De.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Wang De clapped his hands and went out again after hearing this.

"Father, there's not much to do!" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin helplessly and said.

"Why don't there be many things, but there are many things. I think you wrote about the current situation in Luoyang very well and in detail. It is much better than those written by officials who like to sing praises. Whatever you write is what you say!" Li Shimin said to Followed by Wei Hao and said.

Wei Hao was very helpless after hearing this.

"It's really right to let you go to Luoyang. I heard that you have been running down there for a month?" Li Shimin continued to ask Wei Hao.

"Well, in the past month, I have gone to all the main villages. They are very poor, Father. The people are really poor. Although they are not starved of food, it is true that they are naked!" Wei Hao heard. , said with a sigh.
