Datang: Acting as a celestial mystery at the beginning

Li Shimin went outside the tent, pondered for a while, and then asked Du Ruhui to come over.

"Keming, if you were me, what would you do with the Li family?"

When the matter developed to such an extent, Li Shimin already knew that the source of the smallpox was the Li family in Longxi, and even wanted to sabotage the court's splitting of the Turks.

If he dealt with it directly, the Li family is one of the five surnames and seven Wangs. If it causes dissatisfaction and resistance from the other families, the impact will be very bad.

Du Ruhui thought for a while: "I think it's up to other aristocratic families to decide how to deal with it."

"Listen to other families?"

Li Shimin pondered: "Isn't this tantamount to telling them that I'm afraid of the aristocratic family, and I don't even dare to deal with a Li family?"

Du Ruhui explained: "Your Majesty, I think that sometimes deliberately showing weakness is not necessarily because of fear, but to give them a false feeling and lower their vigilance so that we can counterattack in the future."

"Secondly, let other aristocratic families decide. At that time, Li Yongfeng will only hate the aristocratic family, not the court. The Li family in Longxi has a lot of background, and I think it is impossible to sink it directly. The possibility of resurgence."

He continued: "If it really rises, the Li family will only take revenge on other families, and their conflicts will intensify."

Li Shimin thought about it for a long time, and felt that it was feasible, but he wondered: "What if other families don't want to deal with the Li family?"

Du Ruhui thought about this, and said: "It's not a big problem. Now everyone in the Li family has been arrested and quarantined here. As long as we make good use of this time difference, we can use newspapers to write about the Li family's affairs in a more serious way, and then spread the word." Go out, and put all the blame on the Li family. During the closure of the city, other aristocratic families will be more or less affected, and some people will even be infected. In addition, Li's mansion is not far from other aristocratic families, but Li Yongfeng concealed it. , all are available.”

As long as these things are used properly, they can cause a lot of trouble and conflicts for the Li family.

After thinking for a long time, Li Shimin nodded solemnly, accepting Du Ruhui's proposal.

This mistake was originally the Li family's. To maximize the Li family's responsibility and charges, and to use this opportunity to divide their family relationship, can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

"Keming, have you ever complained to me recently?"

Li Shimin changed the subject.

"I've never done it. It's my fault that the family is not strict."

Du Ruhui lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty's not punishing the minister is already a great gift from heaven."

"The Du family, it's actually pretty good, but a few people are blind. I'll think about your matter when I go back."

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he asked Guo Dong to order everyone to go back to Chang'an.

Du Ruhui and others had no choice but to come out and send Li Shimin back.

Judging from what he said just now, Du Ruhui can probably judge that it is not far from his return to the peak of power.

Li Yi'an also watched him leave, thinking Li Erlang, you really don't intend to hold on any longer?

Forget it!

There is still a chance when he comes next time.

Li Shimin was gone, Li Yi'an thought about it, and he had to go home too.

With Sun Simiao here, it is enough to handle it, but he has nothing to do.

Li Yi'an said: "Sun Zhenzhen, I should go back after the time calculation. If you are free after the smallpox plague, you can come to Wannian County to find me. When the time comes, I will give you one more thing. It is guaranteed to be what you want most."

Sun Simiao said with a smile: "I don't know what I want most, but Mr.'s things must be good, I will definitely bother."

After saying goodbye to all of them, Li Yi'an went back to Wannian County.

As soon as he walked into the house, he saw Wanshun sitting in the front yard with her head propped up, her face full of unhappiness, not afraid of the cold outside, and she didn't even notice that her brother-in-law came back.

"Wan Shun, what's wrong?"

Li Yi'an quietly stepped forward and said.

"It's all about that bad brother-in-law..."

As soon as Wanshun's words came out of her mouth, she realized that something was wrong, she quickly jumped up and cheered, "Brother-in-law, you are finally back."

This little girl threw herself directly into Li Yi'an's arms.

Li Yi'an smiled and said, "Why am I broken?"

Wanshun said mischievously: "I won't say anything, brother-in-law is just bad, and I will ignore you from now on."

After that, she exerted a little force, jumped out of his arms, turned around and ran into the house.

This bad brother-in-law, who ran to become a hero by himself, made her and sister Yan'er worry for so long, so ignore him in the future and let him admit his mistake.

Yes, it must be done.

Li Yian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he had no choice but to chase her back.

"Husband, you are back!"

Li Changge ran out happily, thinking that it would take half a month for her husband to come back.

"In the epidemic area, it is enough to have Sun Zhenren. If I continue to stay, I will cause trouble."

Li Yi'an smiled and said: "So come back early, let's prepare for it, we are going to Jiangnan soon."

The matter in Chang'an was almost handled, and the Jiangnan party was next, he thought to himself, there should be unexpected gains.

Before you know it, this year will be over.

-

Zhenguan two years.

Smallpox has been almost brought under control, most of the mild patients have recovered, and the severe patients are out of danger, but the isolation continues.

With the passage of time, almost all people in Gyeonggi Province were vaccinated against vaccinia, Chang'an was unsealed, and so were the surrounding small counties, returning to their normal life at the beginning.

Li Yi'an came to the edge of the Wei River again, but not to the isolation camp, but to the shipyard.

The establishment of this shipyard was proposed by Li Yi'an, and all the court ministers who joined the tea industry participated in it, pooling money together to build the first large ship, and the ship was already moored on the shore.

Countless craftsmen are still busy, preparing for the final finishing work.

"Sir, if it wasn't for the sudden outbreak of smallpox, our big ship would have already been built."

Duan Lun said: "There are three days at the earliest before you can really go into the water. It shouldn't delay your time to go to Jiangnan, sir."

Li Yi'an looked at the big boat with satisfaction, nodded and said: "There is no delay at all, there is still some time before the spring tea, I am not in a hurry, but one thing is for sure, that is, the boat must be strong, I don't want to suddenly fall apart halfway .”

The first time I went to Jiangnan, the means of transportation was still such a big boat. Li Yian didn't want to go there empty-handed like this. Of course, I had to bring Chang'an's blue and white porcelain, Tianmu lamp, and even wool and cotton cloth with me.

The market in Jiangnan is absolutely huge. Things like blue and white porcelain have not yet spread there, and the prospects are promising.

"Just don't worry, sir. If something happens to the ship, you can come back and settle the score with me."

Duan Lun patted his heart and assured that, as Minister of the Ministry of Industry, he would never allow any problems with the things he supervised to build, and said: "Recently, His Majesty revealed to me that he wanted to requisition Mr. Do you know if your husband will agree?"

It was within Li Yi'an's expectation that the imperial court wanted to build a big ship.

The Buddhism is almost cleaned up. The court is rich, rich and powerful, and has enough confidence to prepare for major projects.
