The first rebel of the Tang Dynasty

It turns out that Li Min knows so much.

Therefore, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun still need to get closer to Li Min.

Although Li Shimin has not yet had a chance to meet Li Min, judging from the current situation, it is impossible for the two to meet.

Of course, unless there is a possibility, that is, Li Shimin takes the initiative to admit his mistake, that may be possible.

But for now, Li Shimin will still be content with the status quo. It is impossible for him to admit his mistake.

Therefore, Li Shimin thought of every conceivable method.

For example, get some help from Li Lizhi.

Get some advice from Lizhi Li.

After all, Li Lizhi had worked for Li Min for such a long time and had been exposed to it. She must have had many ideas, which Li Shimin had never had before.

Take today as an example. Regarding the expressway, Li Lizhi did make a lot of suggestions.

Li Shimin had never seen these things before, and he had never thought about such things.

Now, I can only listen and speculate, hoping to get more useful knowledge.

This is what Li Shimin thought.

"You two, mother and daughter, have a nice chat. I still have something to do, so I won't be with you." Li Shimin said immediately.

After speaking, he will leave.

But before he could take a few steps, he turned back again.

He said to Queen Changsun: "Queen, how are you paying attention to the people I asked you to pay attention to?"

Empress Changsun immediately said: "Is it about the selection of the Minister of Household Affairs?"

Because of Dai Zhou's departure, the entire court was in chaos.

Therefore, the vacant position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue needs to be filled by someone.

Since Dai Zhou left, this position has been vacant.

Li Shimin also discovered this shortcoming when he was doing things, so he asked Queen Changsun to find someone for him.

And Queen Changsun naturally took it to heart.

"Yes, that's right."

"I think Liu Rengui is okay."

Queen Changsun said so.

Obviously, Liu Rengui has fallen into the eyes of Empress Changsun, but whether he can fall under the eyes of Li Shimin is another matter.

"Liu Rengui?"

Li Shimin muttered.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Liu Rengui is in Qingzhou now!" Queen Changsun followed.

Li Lizhi was no longer calm now.

She immediately said: "There are so many officials in Chang'an City now, but no one is suitable?"

She asked, and Li Shimin sighed.

"More is more, but not many can be trusted. I am still a little worried about Liu Rengui." Li Shimin finally said.

Liu Rengui's concern is not unreasonable.

Because it was Li Shimin who asked Liu Rengui to go to Qingzhou at that time. If he was allowed to come back again, would Liu Rengui say anything?

Li Lizhi took the opportunity to say: "I think it is better to find an official in Chang'an City. Liu Rengui is not suitable."

They came here to find Liu Rengui, but if Li Shimin was asked to reuse Liu Rengui again, they would be in trouble this time.

This is something no one can bear.

If Li Shimin is allowed to reuse Liu Rengui again, then it will be useless for Li Min to come.

The Shengtang Group still needs to develop, and there are still many urgent matters that need to be dealt with in Dongzhou.

If Liu Rengui is missing, the speed will slow down.

That's why she said that.

Li Shimin listened.

"What Lizhi said is what I have in mind."

Empress Changsun said: "However, if your Majesty summons him to Chang'an, he will definitely be very loyal."

"Father, Liu Rengui has been in Qingzhou for so long. If he comes back to Chang'an, he might not be used to it yet." Li Lizhi said.

"Li Zhi is right. I already have an idea. Queen, you can find one or two from the officials in Chang'an City, and I will also find one or two from them."

"That's okay."

Empress Changsun said immediately.

"Okay, I'll go out first, and you can continue chatting." Then, Li Shimin left.

After he left, Empress Changsun suddenly said: "Lizhi, you didn't care about state affairs before, but today you put forward your own opinions."

"Mother, this is what a son should do!" Li Lizhi said quickly.

But it is difficult to avoid Queen Changsun.

She said: "Is it related to Min'er? Did he ask you to come back this time? And it is also related to Liu Rengui, right?"

I have to say that Queen Changsun is still very perceptive and can actually think of this.

"No, Queen Mother, you are thinking too much." Li Lizhi said quickly.

Even if it was, she couldn't admit it.

This was a very bad ending for her.

For Li Min, it was also an embarrassing moment.

All she can do now is to prevent Liu Rengui from entering Chang'an City.

It has to be used by Li Min.

"Okay, just think I'm overthinking it!" Queen Changsun said nothing more.

But he said this.

"Mother, I will go back for a while and come back later."

"How long have you been separated from Xue Rengui and you still miss him?" Empress Changsun said with a smile.

"Mother, look what you said!" Li Lizhi couldn't admit that she wanted to call Li Min.

Because things change.

Therefore, regarding Liu Rengui, we may have to move forward.

But she still wanted to see what Li Min had to say.

If Li Min thought Liu Rengui could be allowed to come to Chang'an, she wouldn't stop him.

"Okay, you can come over and accompany me later!" Queen Changsun said at last.

But she remembered something again.

"By the way, how long will you stay this time?"

"Maybe in two days, we will go to Qingzhou once. There are our memories there. Let's look back and see if we should come back to Chang'an again!" Li Lizhi said truthfully.

In fact, she didn't want to remember. Instead, I have to go to Liu Rengui and ask him for the final answer.

"Okay, see you later!"

Queen Changsun had no choice but to say this in the end.

Li Lizhi left the palace as fast as she could. After leaving the palace, she found a deserted place, picked up the phone, and started making calls.

"I'm here!"

"Sixth brother!"

"what happened?"

"I heard a little news." "Say!"

"About Liu Rengui!"

Li Lizhi said, and Li Min suddenly felt something bad.

"What about him?"

"My father and mother wanted to make Liu Rengui the Minister of Household Affairs. I finally convinced him, but I was afraid that they would go to Liu Rengui if they couldn't find anyone."

Li Lizhi said this. Li Min felt that something was wrong.

If Liu Rengui is allowed to go back, then things will only become difficult to find Liu Rengui and let him join the Shengtang Group.

"What else did they say?"

"There's nothing left. They finally want to find a suitable person in Chang'an City."

"I understand, by the way, how was your conversation with Liu Rengui?"

"Let's not talk about this for now, sixth brother, what are you going to do?" Li Lizhi asked curiously.

"I want to start with Liu Rengui's family, give them some benefits, and let them persuade him. Then, if you can negotiate, that's the best. If you can't negotiate, I will use strong medicine. If it doesn't work, I will go find Liu Rengui."

It would be quick to start with Liu Rengui's family.

As long as Liu Rengui's family members hear what the Shengtang Group says, they will brainwash Liu Rengui. Over time, Liu Rengui will also listen to Li Min's words.

In that case, if Li Min asked him to join the Shengtang Group, he would agree.

"Then what are you going to do about the court asking Liu Rengui?"

"You can take care of this. Of course I can find a way." Li Min said.

His method is very clear, that is to use his own people to gain power.

Then it influenced Li Shimin's thoughts.

Next, that’s the most important thing.

Currently, Li Min's people account for more than [-]% of the imperial court, and there will be more in the future.

Now that Li Min knew that Li Shimin was going to attack Liu Rengui, he would naturally let a newcomer take over.

As long as the hole is filled, Li Shimin will naturally not think of Liu Rengui.

"Okay, whatever you think is okay, that's all." Li Lizhi finally said.

"Don't worry!" Li Min finally said.

"By the way, you haven't told me how you're doing?"

"As for Liu Rengui, we haven't been able to resolve it yet. We'll give him three days to think about it. If he doesn't agree after three days, then Xue Rengui and I will have no choice."

"Okay, I understand. It seems that I may have to come in the end." Li Min sighed.

Although he went, he still had to go now that things were like this.

This was something he didn't want.

But for the Shengtang Group, he still had to go and take a look.

If even he can't handle something, then Liu Rengui is really awesome.

However, Li Min believed that through his own infiltration, he would be able to get rid of Liu Rengui.

"That's probably true."

Li Lizhi followed suit.

"We heard from Liu Rengui's tone that he seemed to approve of his father and wanted to go to Chang'an. But his father never thought of him. Today, my mother also said that she wanted him to come to Chang'an, and I convinced him."

"It is true that Liu Rengui is more loyal, but it is this kind of loyal person that we want."

Li Yin said.

The more difficult it is to deal with someone, the higher their loyalty will be if they are conquered in the future.

This kind of person is the person he wants.

"I understand, there is one more thing, about the highway."

"What's wrong with the highway? Do you have any ideas or suggestions?" Li Min asked curiously. Li Lizhi didn't care about this before, but today she is so concerned.

"No, my father wanted to build a highway. He didn't know who to listen to. He even asked me. I said a lot, and he agreed very much. Of course, I learned everything I said from you. "

"Because if the economy wants to develop, the emperor must develop highways properly."

"How long does it usually take to repair a highway? If it takes a long time, when will it be opened to traffic?"

"Depending on how much investment there is, the highway will definitely be much slower than the railway. This is inevitable because its road width is different. Unlike the railway, which has only two tracks, the economic development that a highway can drive is amazing. of."

"How long will it take to practice? Is there a time?"

"Did he ask you to ask?" Li Min said immediately.

"No, no, no, no. I just want to know how long it will take to build the highway that my father wants to build now that the Tang Dynasty is so big."

"It depends on how many people are involved. Generally speaking, it takes one engineering team three months to repair twenty miles. If the cooperation is good, multiple engineering teams may be able to repair it together. But there is a drawback. If there is no leveling, You may not be able to pick it up. This will test your skills very much."

"Wouldn't it be ok if we hired people from Shengtang Group?"

Li Lizhi asked rhetorically.

"Yes, that's right! But it's still difficult. A lot of time needs to be invested in the early stage."

"No matter what, as long as there are enough people, it can be completed in a short time, right?"

"It depends on how long the emperor wants to build it. Now we have built the roads around Chang'an. It just depends on which two places they connect."

Li Yin said again.

He had already planned the roads around Chang'an.

A long section has been repaired, and Li Shimin basically doesn’t have to worry about it.

What Li Shimin has to do is connect other regions.

As for how to connect, that's Li Shimin's business.

But Li Shimin didn't have the technology, so he still had to ask the Shengtang Group to come forward.

The Shengtang Group has nothing to hide about these technologies, so if they want it, they can just take it away.

"That's it. Let me tell you! This matter is not that simple."

"Yes, do you have any questions?" Li Min asked again.

"No more for now. Just these two questions." Li Lizhi finally said.

"Okay, you guys should see how long you want to stay in Chang'an. If you want to stay for a long time, let us know in advance. But as long as things are arranged well, you can stay as long as you want."

Li Yin finally said.

"As for staying here, we won't stay too long. It's too boring here. It's not as good as in Dongzhou."

"That's true, but it's been too long since you mother and daughter have seen each other. It would be nice to spend more time together."

"That's what you said, but the child is still in Dongzhou, so I can't worry!"

"Okay, that's up to you. If you want to come back, then come back." Li Min could only say this.

"I will discuss it carefully with Xue Rengui." Li Lizhi said immediately.

Finally the two hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Li Lizhi went directly to Xue Rengui.

At this time, Xue Rengui was already fast asleep at home.

He is too tired.

Originally, he could have had a few words with Empress Changsun, but he just couldn't get a word in. In the end, he gave up.

It wasn't until Li Shimin appeared that he was allowed to come back.

When she found Xue Rengui, she repeated what she had just said.

Xue Rengui said that he would obey Li Min's wishes in everything. As long as Li Min said anything, that would be whatever he said.

And all they can do is see if they can change Liu Rengui's view. If they can, everything will be easier to handle, and there will be no need for Li Min to come to Datang again. You know, Li Min is a very busy person. If he were to come to Datang, there would still be many things left unfinished, which would be a loss for Shengtang Group. (End of chapter)
