People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 447 Still not for sale?
Li Shimin glanced at Li Zheng, "Can I not check carefully?"

Wang Ding also echoed and said: "When the accounts are settled after the autumn, as long as the Western Turkic merchant is killed, General Li Ji will be transferred from the Longwu Army in advance, and it will be difficult to find Chang'an Ling at that time."

Li Shimin said, "Li Zheng, that Western Turkic businessman is your scapegoat."

"Your Majesty's lesson."

"I really underestimated you in the past. Presumably now that Tubo has the weapons of the Tang Dynasty, it has been unable to attack the Western Turks for a long time. Are these all arranged by you?"

"Your Majesty was joking, how can you have such a great ability?"

Wang Ding bowed and said: "The businessman named Movo only recognizes Chang'an Ling, and the secret agents in Tubo and Western Turks will come to report the current events every day. It is also arranged by Chang'an Ling that Xinxin entered Tubo."

Li Shimin stared at himself and also at Jingyang.

The turmoil in Chang'an cannot escape Li Shimin's eyes, and the small countries around Datang also have Li Shimin's spies.

These things can be hidden from many people, but not Li Shimin.

The Western Turkic thug seems to be quite strong at the moment.

Movo can make Western Turks send troops to fight East Turks, which shows that Movo's plan has been completed.

The royal family of Western Turks is completely under the control of Mou.

Seeing Fang Xuanling walking towards this side, Li Shimin and Wang Ding also stopped talking.

There are some things that Li Shimin and himself are well aware of, but they have been hiding them from the court.

Fang Xuanling said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty's hydraulic spinning wheel is very ingeniously designed."

Li Shimin glanced at it and said, "I will let the Ministry of Industry imitate it."

Fang Xuanling asked again: "Dare to ask Chang'an Ling, how is this cotton thread made?"

Li Zheng said with a smile: "If Mr. Fang likes it, I will send some more to Mr. Fang's house later."

Fang Xuanling quickly waved his hand, "No need."

"It's not that expensive."

Fang Xuanling still waved his hand to signal that he didn't want it, and now the cotton cloth is only circulated among the dignitaries in Chang'an, and it was Empress Changsun who first used it.

Speaking of which, the price of silk is too high, even if the rich and powerful use silk as a burden.

Cotton cloth doesn't look like silk, and it doesn't have the texture of silk, but it should be much cheaper to use than silk.

There is a cotton cloth that can replace silk, which must be in short supply again.

The kid was still unwilling to disclose the manufacture of cotton thread between words.

Obviously cotton thread is the focus of this business.

Just like Lee Jung's soap.

Sometimes people are more popular than people.

Li Shimin thought about his sons, Li Chengqian and Li Tai were not as promising as Li Zheng.

Suddenly, he regretted marrying Li Zhi to Li Zheng.

"Li Zheng, since you know about the earthquake in Longyou and the flood in the south of the Yangtze River, I also sent officials to inform the governments of the states in Jiangnan Province to prepare in advance."

"That's good." Li Zheng nodded.

Glancing at Li Zheng suspiciously, Li Shimin asked again: "Since you know this, can you count more things?"

Li Zheng quickly said: "Your Majesty, these are actually science."

Li Shimin, "Science?"

"Yes, it's science. In fact, there are signs before everything happens. I infer based on some small signs. It's like a dragonfly flying to the bottom and it's going to rain. The weather in Jiangnan Road is sweltering for days, so there must be heavy rain. .”

I don't know if it's okay to be fooled like this, the so-called misstep will cause eternal hatred, what to do is not good enough to be a magic stick, and I don't want to drink with Yuan Tiangang again next time.

With one drink, he drank himself into a big magic stick.

Li Shimin thought for a while and asked: "Can the science you mentioned also be able to predict the future?"

Li Zheng went on to say: "Science is not divination. Science is an explanation of everything in the world. It is different from the gods and ghosts of Taoist Yuan Tiangang. What we pay attention to is to practice the truth."

Li Shimin thought for a while and asked, "Can you calculate the fate of the Tang Dynasty?"

"I can't figure it out. How can I have such a great ability? If I have such a great ability, do I still need to work hard to make money?"

Li Zheng spoke very decisively, and because of his decisive answer, Li Shimin still had doubts.

With a long sigh of melancholy, Li Shimin left with Fang Xuanling and Wang Ding.

After returning to the court, Li Shimin summoned a group of ministers to discuss matters.

Many people are asking His Majesty's opinion on this request for help from the Turks.

After several inquiries, the news from the court gave the crown prince full authority to handle the matter.

Sitting in the East Palace, Li Chengqian was very surprised to hear the news. He didn't expect his father to leave this matter to himself.

The officials of the East Palace discussed it one after another.

It stands to reason that he will be married to the Su family next year, and Li Chengqian doesn't want to make trouble at this time.

But the emperor ordered him to do it, and he had to do it beautifully.

Li Chengqian said in a low voice: "Father, did you go to Jingyang before making this decision?"

The official of the East Palace replied: "Return to His Royal Highness, according to the news from the palace, His Majesty has indeed left the palace once, and it is unknown where he went."

Li Chengqian took a deep breath, "What is the King of Wei doing these days, and his topographical records are about to be compiled these days."

The official of the East Palace replied, "I think it should be."

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "After Qingque compiled Kuo Dizhi, he should leave Chang'an satisfactorily. Gu will definitely see him off."

In Chang'an, Cui Lin, the head of the Cui family, is getting worse and worse these days. He coughed and said, "Didn't you say that Li Zheng is about to die? Why is he still alive now? It can be counted as Longyou Dilong's recovery."

The Cui family's children hurriedly said: "We must return to the light."

"Yes, it must be back to the light!"

"We are all ready, we will go to Jingyang as soon as Li Zheng dies, and take down all of Li Zheng's business!"

"That's right! When Li Zheng died, all he had was to make wedding dresses for us."

Cui Lin said with emotion: "As soon as Li Zheng dies, the art of movable type printing must be obtained."

In Jingyang, Li Yifu hurriedly found Li Zheng who was dozing off and said, "Chang'an Ling, the Turkic envoy said he would come to visit Chang'an Ling."

Li Zheng turned over and still closed his eyes and said, "No see."

Li Yifu whispered: "They are here to buy food."

"Did you say the price?"

"Talk to buy our grain at the price of [-] yuan for a bucket of rice."

"Do not sell!"

The Turks have already taken the bait, why not sell it?

Li Yifu couldn't figure it out, but he still left the stables with his words, and said to the Turkic envoy who came to buy grain: "Our Chang'an Order said we won't sell it."

The Turkic envoy asked anxiously, "Is it still worth thirty dollars for a bucket of rice?"

Li Yifu said: "Just don't sell it."

The Turkic envoy's expression changed from anxious to angry, "What does Li Zheng want to do with these grains! Could it be that he really used them for himself?"

"What's the matter with eating by yourself? You Turkic people don't come to buy our food if you have the ability."

"You..." The Turkic envoy gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going to talk to His Majesty right now, you are deceiving people too much."

"Let's go without sending it."

As soon as the Turkic envoy left, other people gathered around and said, "The Turkic envoy offered thirty qian, and we are willing to offer forty qian."

"We will pay fifty dollars, and please report to the Chang'an Order."
