Zhenguan's prosperity and fame

Chapter 113 The Conspiracy of the Viper

"What do you suggest?"

Si bowed and said: "Your Highness, the military power must not be lost! No matter what means His Highness uses, Si must ask His Highness to retain his military power, even if he persuades His Majesty to make some concessions."

Li Fangchen nodded slightly, indicating that he knew, and then disappeared into the darkness.

This method of waiting to disappear without a trace is really interesting. If Fang Chen was not night blind, it would be really difficult to find out how the other party left.

Walking quietly, it seems that the ability is really not small.

It's just that the concealment method was a bit poor. Fang Chen was distracted when he came in, so he didn't notice it. Now that the other party is leaving, Fang Chen remembers every movement in his mind.

On the next day, in the court hall, as I said, nearly half of the courtiers presented a performance to the saint because the prince had not yet opened the mansion and could not have military power.

The Ministry of Households even attacked King Qin and King Wei at the same time. The two princes acted arbitrarily and deliberately raised prices in order to pay half of the tax.

Li Shimin Longyan was furious, reprimanded all the officials on the spot, and then turned his anger on the case.

All the officials continued to ask for the performance, and there was a feeling that they would never let it go.

The profit of Liuli is really terrible. Just yesterday's auction, after some statistics, came up with an approximate figure, 100 million guan!
Such huge profits must never remain in the hands of the royal family, and nationalization is the best choice.

The emperor is self-willed when he has money, and there have been alarm bells since ancient times. In addition to the aristocratic family, some ministers will also choose to stand on the opposite side of Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty, as a king, you must not compete with the people for profit!"

Kong Yingda cried out in grief, hoping to make Li Shimin wake up.

Being so angry that he couldn't bear it, Li Shimin didn't want himself to compromise, but this time he had to compromise again.

"Come here, summon King Qin and King Wei into the palace!"

The side hall of Kunning Palace, as soon as Li Fangchen got the news, he was overjoyed.

"It really made you guess right, then guess again, what will I do next?"

Si hurriedly put down the chess pieces and said: "I dare not guess what His Highness wants, I just hope His Highness will not give up his military power."

Li Fangchen laughed loudly, and left with Xuan Yi.

After Li Fangchen left, he wiped off his cold sweat and moved his sore wrist along the way.

"This chess is really difficult to play. There are dozens of rounds, but I didn't win a single round." An idea suddenly popped up in Si's mind, and he couldn't help blurting out, "Your Highness, don't be impulsive!"

After finding a rookie, Li Fangchen won consecutively for a whole afternoon, feeling very happy.

After entering the Zichen Palace, I wanted to greet Li Shimin, "My son, I pay my respects to my father!"

"Yu'er is here, give me a seat!"

"Thank you, Father!"

Sitting down generously, Li Fangchen asked with a smile: "I don't know why the father summoned his servants?"

From the beginning to the end, he never looked at Baiguan.

Li Shimin said with a sneer: "My lords feel that although you have a prince, Yu'er, you have not yet established a mansion, so it is not appropriate to have the right to command the army."

Li Fangchen smiled and nodded, "In that case, you can just take it back, Father."

"what?"

Li Shimin was also taken aback by Li Fangchen's attitude, so simple?
Baiguan was even more dumbfounded, how could it be?
Ever since I told him about it last night, Li Fangchen had a plan in mind.

After yawning, Li Fangchen got up and said, "Father, is there anything else?"

"His Royal Highness Qin, the Liulifang built by you and His Royal Highness Wei Wang did not receive half of the tax revenue. This matter is inconsistent!" the official of the household department came out and said.

Li Fangchen rolled his eyes, "I have paid taxes!"

"What?" Everyone was surprised again, the money was obviously transported back to the palace last night, how could King Qin pay the tax.

However, Li Fangchen asked: "My lord of the household department, I wonder if the Tang Dynasty has said that there is a rule that the raw materials are taxed once, and the finished products are taxed again?"

"It's impossible."

"But what? If you want to check the tax, then go and check it. As early as a month ago, Qingque has already paid the tax, and you plan to collect double the tax? What is this? Excessive miscellaneous taxes are not allowed?"

The fourth-rank official from the household department fell to the ground to plead guilty, but he didn't even dare to speak.

"So, who has a problem?"

Li Fangchen looked at it, and the officials who jumped out before all looked away.

In the end, there was really no other way, a family official jumped out and said: "Actually, His Royal Highness Qin Wang, you don't have to take back the military power, as long as you..."

"Hurry up and accept it! I can't accept it! Today I told you that I don't want military power, hum!"

Li Fangchen seemed to be angry, and blocked all the man's words.

Li Shimin laughed, the kind of laughing, he never expected that Yu'er would make such a move, why would all the officials take profit from him after such a downfall?He had already done it before, and he would lose hundreds of thousands of mentality, but he didn't expect that Yu'er would take care of it all!
"Since this is the case, then pass on my doubts, take back the military power of Prince Qin's mansion, retain the left and right general positions, and retreat from the court!"

Li Shimin took Li Fangchen away, Baiguan was dumbfounded.

For example, Changsun Wuji and other officials close to Li Shimin sneered constantly.

Yuchi Jingde said: "Let you make calculations, and now you have offended His Majesty and King Qin, everyone, you are really brave!"

Only those aristocratic family officials and some civil servants who had ventilated before were left in the hall, staring wide-eyed.

"Master Wang, this is the good way you said? You must give me an explanation today!"

"That's right, my lord, we offended both His Majesty and His Royal Highness King Qin at once. In the future, if His Highness King Qin brings trouble, you must bear it!"

Born in the Wang family in Taiyuan, Wang Gui, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, is also suffering at this moment.

Fundamentally speaking, he is definitely thinking about the overall situation, and the small part is for the family.

Unlike other ministers, he is very aware of His Majesty's ambitions. If the money is exchanged for His Majesty's war, I am afraid that Datang will be ruined again, so he came up with such a method.

Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness Qin Wang is so free and easy, never caring about it?
King Qin doesn't command troops?I'm afraid that after today, the whole Chang'an will treat them as a joke!
Si's face in Kunning Palace changed several times, and finally he calmed down.

"Your Highness is very impressed with this move!"

The boss has done it all, and the younger brother naturally can't say anything more, but has to help the King of Qin plan again.

Without military power, this is definitely a big problem!
But His Royal Highness Qin Wang has the world in his heart, he can only say that he has found a good master!

Little did he know that at this moment Li Shimin was taking Li Fangchen to drink tea in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Yu'er, I will give you an explanation for this matter, don't worry, it won't be long!"

"Father, there's no need. Anyway, I'm still young, and I won't be able to leave the palace even if I have military power. Instead of this, it's better to be out of sight and out of mind."

Li Shimin was silent and almost forgot that the military power of the Qin Palace is really like a chicken rib to Yu'er.

"Yu'er, do you think I shouldn't have this money?"

Li Fangchen smiled and said, "That depends on how the money is used."

"Oh? Tell me, what are your plans?"

"Father, do you feel that it is too time-consuming to go back and forth from Chang'an to Luoyang?"

"Yu'er, what do you mean?"

"My son has heard a saying, that is, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads!"

"Come on, go and call the crown prince and the king of Wei together!"
