Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 779
Li Shimin asked Li Tai and Li Zhi if they had anything to do, they were stunned for a moment, they just came here to check their presence, just now it was discussed in the court, and they are not willing to let them be vassals, especially Li Zhi , that's even more unwilling, and I want to fight for it,
However, Li Tai had objections to those ministers. Why had he been fighting in Chang'an for so many years?

"All right?" Li Shimin stopped, looked at the two of them and asked.

"Father, you have to make the decision for us. We keep Chang'an in the hope that we can spend more time with father and queen. It is hard for us to accept what those ministers said!" Li Tai stood there, Said to Li Shimin,
Li Chengqian heard it from the side, he was silent, he couldn't say anything, he could say such shameless things, what else could he say?
"Well, let's go down if you have nothing to do, I and your elder brother have something to discuss!" Li Shimin said to the two of them.

"Yes, Father!" The two of them felt helpless when they heard this, and could only hold their hands together. When they reached the stairs, they looked at each other.

"Jiulang, let's go and find my brother-in-law. This matter can only be helped by my brother-in-law. If my brother-in-law says we can stay, then we can stay. If my brother-in-law says we can't, then my father will definitely not keep us." !" Li Tai said to Li Zhi.

"Yes, but is brother-in-law home now?" Li Zhi looked at Li Tai and asked.

"I don't know, let's inquire first. In the evening, the eldest sister will come back, and we will go there at that time. Anyway, I will go a few more times. I guess my brother-in-law will know what it means. Now it's up to my brother-in-law!" Li Tai looked at Li Zhi and said,

Originally, Li Tai didn't want to talk to Li Zhi, but there was no other way. The question now was whether he could continue to keep the affairs of the capital. It was difficult to convince Wei Hao on his own. If he could, Li Tai still wanted to win over Li Shen. After all, Li Shen is now in the capital, but he manages the school,
If Li Shen came to beg Wei Hao, then Wei Hao would definitely agree, and in Li Shimin's study, Li Chengqian also gave the memorial to Li Shimin, and Li Shimin sat there and read it.

"Father, there are at least three times more workshops in Chang'an than three years ago, but the tax revenue is already declining. There are many workshops, and the tax revenue is decreasing. My son asked Jingzhao Mansion to count. The entire Jingzhao Mansion One-third of the workshops are loss-making, and many workshops may have to be closed.

Among the workshops established by Shenyong before, some of the profits have decreased a lot, and some are facing closure. Erchen is still investigating the reasons. The initial estimate is that many workshops are now competing with each other, and those workshops are poaching each other. High wages make it difficult for some workshops to support! "Li Chengqian sat there and said to Li Shimin...

"Hmm!" Li Shimin sat there, watching the memorial, his brows were also tightly frowned, and after a while, he said, "How about the workshop in Luoyang?"

"Taxes are increasing. The increase was faster in the past few years. Now, the annual increase is about [-]%, which is not bad. Moreover, I heard that many workshops would rather open workshops in Luoyang than in Chang'an. , The specific reason, I have not figured out yet, and it will take time." Li Chengqian continued to report to Li Shimin.

"Does Shenyong know the situation in Chang'an?" Li Shimin continued to ask.

"This minister doesn't know, but I believe that Shen Yong still knows something!" Li Chengqian said.

"This memorial has to be shown to Shen Yong. You have to ask Shen Yong more about what he means. No one is more familiar with the workshop than Shen Yong. There are still many things in Shen Yong's hands that have not been brought out. If you do, I will I believe that taxes can still be raised. In addition, the electricity issue has not been fixed yet? Why don’t the people in Chang’an City use electricity on a large scale?” Li Shimin continued to ask.

"My son asked the Ministry of Industry, and the reply from the Ministry of Industry was that there are not so many wires, and the wires need a lot of copper, so this is a limitation! Now silver is also used in large-scale transactions, and the common people still Believe in copper coins!" Li Chengqian continued to reply.

"Hmm!" Li Shimin rubbed his head, and then complained, "This bastard is afraid that his father will force him to do something. If you want to discuss something with him, he won't say anything, eh!"

"Father, this, my son's idea is, can you stop cheating him, if you continue cheating him like this, what will happen if he runs away?" Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin carefully and said.

"Why did I cheat him? Didn't I just let him be an official? It's a pity that such a capable person doesn't become an official. You just say, what tasks are entrusted to him, he can't do it. You don't understand, there are many difficult things." He is the only one who can complete the work, so who else will I find? This bastard, let him do some work, it is more difficult than anything else!" Li Shimin continued to complain.

Li Chengqian heard it and kept silent. Now that Li Shimin has said that, what else can he say?Just listen to it.

"Okay, you go down, show this memorial to Shen Yong, and find a way to get him to give some advice. As for me, I will find an opportunity to talk to him and see if I can get him to say something real. In addition, Your uncle's family has been in Tiefang for three years, and it should be released, when will you go pick him up!" Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian and said.

"Should I pick you up? That's fine!" Li Chengqian nodded upon hearing that.

"Well, tell me, do you want Hou Junji released?" Li Shimin thought of this, looked at Li Chengqian and asked.

"This minister doesn't know. The main thing is to listen to the opinions of the ministers. If the ministers have no objections, they can release them. The other is the meaning of Uncle Pharmacist. If he has no objections, that is the best. !" Li Chengqian thought about it and said.

"They don't agree, and I don't have a better way. Shenyong probably doesn't agree, so I'm also considering this matter, that's all, you can do your work!" Li Shimin waved his hand at Li Chengqian and said,
When Li Chengqian heard it, he immediately cupped his hands and left here.
When Wei Hao arrived at the Overwatch Council, he found that there were not many people here, and the rest were low-level officials who had just been transferred, and those who were slightly more senior were all arrested, all because of Li Ke's affairs.

"I've seen Duke Xia!" The officials immediately bowed their hands and saluted when they saw Wei Hao approaching.

"Just you guys here, who is the most senior official here?" Wei Hao asked.

"Back to Xia Guogong, there are only a few of us, the most senior, um, I'm from the eighth rank!" A young man stood there and said.

"In an Overwatch Council, I am the chief inspector from the first rank, and there are two deputies from the second rank, four inspectors from the third rank, and eight local deputies. Already?" Wei Hao looked at the official in surprise and asked.

"Yes, there are still some officials from various supervisory agencies!" the young man said to Wei Hao.

"Damn it, make a woolen yarn, no one else, quit it, whoever wants to do it!" Wei Hao heard it, his head was big, no one was there, and he was only a few people now, still working like this, and monitoring the officials like this , isn't this a joke?
Those people heard it, but they didn't dare to make a sound. They were too different from Wei Hao. Wei Hao complained, what else could they say.

"Where is my office?" Wei Hao asked.

"Go back to my lord, this way!" The official immediately led the way,

Wei Hao followed to the door of the office room. Just as the official wanted to say that it was inside, he found that Wei Hao took out his seal and hung it directly on the door.

"My lord, you?" Those people looked at Wei Hao in surprise.

"What's the matter, can't you leave with your seal? I'm not in charge. How can I work with just a few people? Go home!" Wei Hao said and left with his hands behind his back. The officials also watched Wei Hao leave The Overwatch Council was very helpless, and finally hoped that a leader would come, and if he had nothing to do, he would quit, and this would be fatal.

Soon the news that Wei Hao left with his seal spread to the ears of the officials.

"What, Wei Hao went away with a seal, oh my god, let people live?" Fang Xuanling was depressed at the moment, thinking that someone had finally worked on the Overwatch Council, and he hadn't waited. Take it easy, Wei Hao quit

The same was true for the other ministers. Those ministers hoped that Wei Hao could restore the Overwatch Council and let the Overwatch Council exercise its normal powers. Unexpectedly, Wei Hao quit.

Soon, Fang Xuanling arrived at Chengtian Palace and reported the news to Li Shimin.

"What did you say? Wei Hao quit. How could it be possible? He promised me that he would work for a full year, and it's not half an hour before he quit?" Li Shimin was also very shocked when he heard that. .

"Yes, the seal is still hanging there!" Fang Xuanling also looked at Li Shimin with a depressed expression.

"Where did you go?" Li Shimin asked immediately.

"I don't know, I guess I'm going home!" Fang Xuanling replied.

"Come on, go find Wei Hao!" Li Shimin said, and then he thought that something was wrong. When this kid came, he didn't know when he would have to wait, so he should go to his house by himself.

"Wait a minute, show me, I'm going out of the palace!" Li Shimin shouted, and Wang De went to prepare again.

"Your Majesty, you have to keep Wei Hao, otherwise, no one will do the work of the Overwatch Council, mainly because no one dares to do it!" Fang Xuanling reminded Li Shimin.

"I know, this bastard, can you immediately go back on what you just promised? Is there such a reason?" Li Shimin was very depressed at the moment, thinking that this kid was too unreliable.

"Your Majesty, I don't care about this matter anyway, I'll leave it to Your Majesty, you go to persuade Wei Hao, I still have a lot of things to do!" Fang Xuanling continued to say to Li Shimin, and Li Shimin nodded. Nodding, Fang Xuanling left immediately.
