Chapter 702 Sending troops to Persia
Chapter 698

Wei Hao heard Li Chengqian say that those ministers don't think about immigration at all, they just want to fight now, Wei Hao heard it, and sat there thinking about it.

"Shen Yong, you really need to take action on this matter. In the past three years, you have basically not asked about the big affairs of the court. Therefore, those ministers are becoming more and more radical now. They think that as long as we fight down, Those lands can be managed well. They also use Goguryeo as an example, but can it be compared?

We went to Goguryeo here, and we built a straight road, and the Goguryeo Peninsula is now very close to Beiping, and now Beiping has also developed.

But for the northwest side, we don’t have a big city, and the population is very sparse. If we move the population to those places now, I don’t know how many children will be brought there. Can those children walk such a long distance? Know! " Li Chengqian sat there, looked at Wei Hao and said anxiously.

Wei Hao heard it and nodded. Wei Hao doesn't want to fight now, but Li Shimin and those ministers all want to fight, and those vassal kings are also fueling the flames. If they oppose it, they will offend many people. Well, this involves the interests of those vassal kings,

They also hope that after the enfeoffment, they can manage their fiefdom well, so the sooner they fight, the better, especially for King Wu and King Wei. They have indeed made great contributions to Datang, but once they are divided, these things will be destroyed It has nothing to do with them, so they still hope to conquer the surrounding territories as soon as possible, and then divide them up.

"Shen Yong, you have to show up!" Li Chengqian sat there and said to Wei Hao.

"Come forward now?" Wei Hao looked at Li Chengqian and asked.

"That's right, now you need to come forward and persuade Father. Before, Father listened to your words. In recent years, although you haven't been to Chengtian Palace very much, I believe that Father will still believe what you say!" Li Chengqian nodded. Nodding, he said to Wei Hao.

"Impossible. Father is unlikely to change his mind because of my objection. You have to consider that father is getting older, and he hopes to conquer Persia even more. This will give him even more prestige!" Wei Wei Hao shook his head, looked at Li Chengqian and said,
Li Chengqian was taken aback when he heard this, he really didn't think about this issue.

"What should I do, what will be left will be a mess!" Li Chengqian said helplessly.

"I understand what my father means. Since those vassal kings want to fight, let them fight. At that time, they will govern anyway. If the governance is not good, it is their own business. As for immigration, it must be their own business." to immigrate,
But how many immigrants and how to immigrate, there is a saying. The father is here, and he probably wants to make those vassal kings remember, but the father's specific thoughts, we don't know, maybe he doesn't want to wait, maybe it's If you want to cheat those vassal kings, it's hard to say anyway! "Wei Hao sat there and said with a wry smile.

"This!" After hearing this, Li Chengqian didn't know how to judge, and became silent. Now he didn't know what to say, and he didn't know whether to persuade Li Shimin.

"Okay, let's go back. We can't persuade you about this matter. Father will decide whether to fight or not. After winning the fight, those problems arise, and they can solve them by themselves!" Wei Hao said to Li Chengqian.

"It's too risky, and it's a pity. If in a few years, those children in my Tang Dynasty grow up and fight again, the hope will be even greater. We can continue to control those places. What a pity, what a pity!" Li Chengqian nodded helplessly and said,
Wei Hao also gave a wry smile, and after a while, Li Chengqian left, while Wei Hao sat in the study, thinking about it.

"Brother is gone?" Li Lizhi went to Wei Hao's study at the moment, looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"Well, let's go, now everyone in the court hopes to fight Persia, and even said that the Jieri Dynasty has cleaned up together. Just kidding, how many people are there in my Tang Dynasty. If such a large area is controlled, no people will immigrate there. There will be rebellion every day!" Sitting there, Wei Hao nodded with a wry smile.

"Don't try to persuade this matter. Now not only the court is talking about this matter, but also the people are discussing this matter. If you object, I'm afraid it will not end well. Moreover, the emperor may not listen to it. Yours!" Sitting next to Wei Hao, Li Lizhi leaned on Wei Hao and said.

"No matter how I persuade you, the emperor has his own plans. If I continue to persuade you, it will be very troublesome!" Wei Hao nodded with a wry smile.

But at this moment, at Chengtian Palace, Wang En took a note and handed it to Li Shimin. After reading it, Li Shimin burned it immediately, and then sat on the fifth floor thinking about it.

After a while, Li Shimin asked, "How long has it been since Shen Yong came to Chengtian Palace?"

"Ah, it's been five months since you returned to Your Majesty?" Wang En heard and immediately reported.

"How many times have you been here in the past three years?" Li Shimin continued to ask.

"Not more than ten times, and all of them were summoned by the emperor. In addition, it was the New Year's greetings, and when the empress entertained those concubines!" Wang En continued to stand there and reported.

"Well, hey!" Li Shimin sighed, and Wang En didn't know what Li Shimin meant by asking this, and whether he wanted to invite Wei Hao over.

"Go down, I will sit alone!" Li Shimin waved to Wang En and said, Wang En immediately left here, leaving Li Shimin to sit here alone.

Three years ago, Wei Hao would come over from time to time, but now, he is getting more and more distant. Li Shimin knows that there are problems of his own.

But Wei Hao is his son-in-law after all, and he is still such a capable son-in-law. If he has any ideas, he can talk to himself at any time, but now, Wei Hao is becoming more and more silent.

At noon, when Li Shimin was about to eat, his right servant shot Gao Shilian to see him.

"Xuan!" Li Shimin said, and soon Gao Shilian came in.

"But something?" Li Shimin asked Gao Shilian.

"Return to Your Majesty, someone impeached Xia Guogong's tax evasion!" Gao Shilian said to Li Shimin.

"Huh?" Li Shimin heard it and looked at Gao Shilian.

"Your Majesty, this is an impeachment memorial. I impeach Duke Xia's mansion for tax evasion of 3 guan, mainly those shops of Duke Xia. Those shops did not pay the full amount of taxes!" Gao Shilian said to Li Shimin, and at the same time handed the memorial to Li Shimin,
Li Shimin unfolded it and looked at it. It will be very clear when the time comes, but Li Shimin is also very clear that Wei Hao doesn't care about those shops at all. All the shops are managed by his daughter. He looked down on Wei Hao.

"Nonsense!" Li Shimin closed the memorial and put it aside.

"This matter is true. The Overwatch Council is also investigating, and found that it was indeed not handed in this year!" Gao Shilian continued.

"I know, I will ask him when the time comes!" Li Shimin waved his hand and said.

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, you can't do it. We also know that the Emperor has always trusted Xia Guogong very much, but if he is wrong, he is wrong. The Emperor should not cover up!" Gao Shilian said to Li Shimin, and Li Shimin looked at Gao Shilian.

"Then what does the Overwatch Council mean?" Li Shimin asked, staring at Gao Shilian.

"Fining money, this is the first time Xia Guogong has had such a thing. It stands to reason that he needs to pay ten times the fine and pay the full amount of taxes!" Gao Shilian continued. According to him, he needs to pay 33 yuan.
This money is not a problem for Wei Hao, but it is too insulting.
Li Shimin waved his hand, signaling him to go out and think about it for himself. Gao Shilian heard it, and immediately saluted Li Shimin, and then left the fifth floor.
The next morning, at the court meeting, those ministers continued to impeach Wei Hao, saying that Wei Hao had evaded taxes and should be punished. Almost two-thirds of the officials in the court thought so.
Although Cheng Yaojin and the others objected, they did not. Those civil servants still stared at Wei Hao, and Wei Hao did not come to court. Cheng Yaojin and his generals were not the opponents of so many civil servants.
Li Shimin heard it, and was very annoyed at the moment, so he still suppressed it.

After returning to the fifth floor of Chengtian Palace, Fang Xuanling, Gao Shilian, and Li Ke, Li Tai begged to see them, and Li Shimin let them in. Who knew that they would still talk about this matter as soon as they came in. Although Fang Xuanling objected, Li Shimin Ke and Li Tai are biting each other,

Especially Li Ke, who is now in control of the Overwatch Council. If he doesn’t fine him this time, then the Overwatch Council will become a decoration in the future. Li Tai, as the Governor of Jingzhao Mansion, also said that Xia Guogong will not pay taxes this time, which is true. Bad influence!
Li Shimin had no choice but to leave it to Gao Shilian, let Gao Shilian handle this matter, and then let them go down,
Li Shimin knew very well that because Li Chengqian went to see Wei Hao, those people were worried that Wei Hao would object, so they attacked Wei Hao first, and now, Li Shimin didn't ask Wei Hao's idea whether to fight or not.
Originally, Li Shimin wanted to talk to Wei Hao about this matter, but now that this is done, Wei Hao probably won't say anything. Of course, there is also Li Shimin's selfishness, and Li Shimin also wants to fight, because Li Shimin also feels his own My body and energy are not as good as before.

At this moment, Li Lizhi, who was at home, was dumbfounded after receiving the notice from the court. How could it be possible to evade taxes?My own shops and all businesses will have to pay taxes, so Li Lizhi immediately went to those shops to check,

After this investigation, Li Lizhi knew what was going on, because there were several shops that sold the grains from his own family. According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, if they sold their own grains, they did not have to pay tax, but Wei Hao's mansion has a lot of fertile land and a lot of food. It seems to be a shop specializing in selling food, so it has to pay taxes.

Li Lizhi is very popular. Her own shop has never purchased grain from private or other shops at all, and there is no need to pay taxes. So Li Lizhi immediately went to Jingzhao Mansion to look for Li Tai, but the yamen said that Li With Tai not here, Li Li is out of temper.
At night, when Wei Hao came back from fishing, he saw Li Lizhi sitting there silently, and immediately asked, "What's wrong?"

"What's the matter, what does King Wei mean, and what does King Wu mean? The Overwatch Council impeached us, saying that we evaded taxes? I checked and found that it was our grain stores. Our grain stores originally sold our own goods. We don’t have to pay taxes on food, but now they want us to pay a tax of 3 guan, and a fine of 30 guan, what do they mean?” Li Lizhi shouted angrily.

"Huh? Who said there will be a fine?" Wei Hao said angrily.

"The Overwatch Council has already reported it to the Ministry of Education, and the Ministry of Education has approved it!" Li Lizhi said to Wei Hao.

"You didn't look for Li Tai?" Wei Hao heard it, looked at Li Li and asked.

"I found him, but he's not here! I'm going to ask him at his house later!" Li Lizhi said angrily.

Wei Hao sat there thinking about it when he heard it. After a while, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, don't look for it, pay the money, and you still have 33 yuan at home, right?"

Li Lizhi heard it and looked at Wei Hao in surprise.

"Hand over, this matter is not that simple, hand it over! Then don't worry about anything, just pretend it never happened. Immediately, ask someone to collect 33 guan and send it to the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion!" Wei Hao gritted his teeth Said to Li Lizhi.

"Master, you?" Li Lizhi looked at Wei Hao in shock and asked.

"Hand it in now!" After Wei Hao finished speaking, he turned and returned to his study.
Then I sat down and began to write the memorial. At the beginning of the memorial, I opposed the fight against Persia. At the same time, I listed ten reasons why I didn’t fight Persia.

After finishing writing, Wei Hao sent someone to Zhongshu Province immediately!He was thinking about it. He knew why he was fined, and he knew why Li Shimin agreed. He just wanted to know his attitude, including Li Shimin. They didn't want him to object. If you warn yourself, you have to warn them.

Wei Hao's memorial was immediately in Li Shimin's hands. Li Shimin was also a little angry when he saw Wei Hao's sharp words.
The next morning, the princes and princes were summoned to Chengtian Palace to discuss this matter, but Wei Hao was not summoned.Li Shimin showed Wei Hao's memorial to those people. After reading it, those people objected one after another, thinking that Wei Hao didn't understand the situation in Persia at all, and also underestimated the strength of Datang and Datang's army.
There was even a prince who said that Wei Hao was stupid teaching in the school now, and he didn't know the current situation at all. Those princes still hoped that Li Shimin would send troops to attack Persia,
Li Chengqian and Fang Xuanling were also opposed to sending troops, but it was useless. Even Li Shimin supported sending troops, and their opposition was useless.

Then Li Shimin quickly made a decision to send troops to Persia, and mobilized 20 divisions with a total of 33 people to start pressing over Persia. Wei Hao, who was at home, knew the news that night. Wei Hao just smiled wryly, Put the message aside.
