Man Tanghong

Chapter 47 Matches
Li Yuanji looked at Li Shimin, then at Changsun Wuji.

Co-authoring you two to sing the oboe with me here, how about coaxing fools to play?

Li Shimin kept saying that it was a crime to resell officials and nobles, and Changsun Wuji kept saying that he could donate some grain as food for the army, and when the army returned from victory, he could use military merit to offset the crime.

Isn't this just to show him that he can take out some food and use it as food and grass for the army. Later, Li Shimin will use his military merits to help him pay for his crimes and stop the mouths of those officials.

The problem is, he is also one of the commanders of this army expedition.

Not to mention Li Shimin's defeat of Liu Heitai, even if he even took down the Turkic people, he would have a share of the credit.

He also used Li Shimin's military merits to help him pay for his crimes? !
Li Yuanji could see that, Li Shimin saw that he had more food in his hand, so he came here to beat the autumn wind.

No wonder Li Shimin left all the generals behind and came to look for him.

With this kind of opportunity to fight the autumn wind, he can also leave all the generals behind and run to find each other.

"Second brother, since he's taken a fancy to the little food in my hand, he should just say so. Why use such a lame excuse to scare me?"

Li Yuanji rolled his eyes, looked at Li Shimin, and said indifferently.

Still exchange food for military merit, and then use military merit to atone for sins?
Whether Li Shimin can win or not is still unknown in the eyes of others. The criminals are crazy to bet on the unknown with the food of their family's survival.

Moreover, he is the chief of the rear army, and Li Shimin must communicate with him when making such an important decision.

Li Shimin made a decision without talking to him, so can he believe it?

"Hahaha……"

When Li Shimin heard Li Yuanji's words, not only was he not embarrassed, but he laughed and said to his eldest grandson Wuji: "Auxiliary machine, I said that Shiro is not what he used to be. If you still don't believe me, you have to try Shiro, your little one." Shiro saw through the trick at a glance, how do you feel?"

Changsun Wuji smiled wryly and said: "This minister has offended His Highness King Qi, please punish His Highness King Qi."

With that said, Changsun Wuji got up specially, bowed to Li Yuanji to salute, and waited for Li Yuanji to punish him.

Li Yuanji pouted.

In front of Li Shimin, how dare he embarrass Li Shimin's wife and uncle.

Li Shimin would not give him this chance.

Before he could speak, Li Shimin said with a smile: "You are the elder brother of Guanyin's maidservant, and Shiro has to call you elder brother in private, how could he blame you.

Sit down, and never underestimate Shiro in the future.

Next time, if Shiro wants to deal with you, I won't help you. "

Li Shimin's set of fights and fights not only helped Changsun Wuji out of the siege, but also brought the relationship between the three closer.

Even if Li Yuanji was angry in his stomach, it was not easy for him to have an attack.

Li Yuanji said indifferently: "Second brother has said that, how could I blame Shangdang Gong? It's just such jokes, it's better to say less in the future, I have a bad temper, and if I hear too many jokes, I might lose my temper."

Li Shimin's words narrowed the relationship between the three people, and Li Yuanji's words opened the relationship between the three people.

Li Shimin talks about his personal relationship, so he talks about his status.

Li Shimin hit a soft nail and was a little embarrassed.

Changsun Wuji was even more embarrassed.

"How could Shiro be so unkind?"

Li Shimin deliberately put on a straight face and taught a lesson.

Li Yuanji glanced at Li Shimin, and said straight to the point: "If the second brother doesn't worry about the food in my hand, I must be very approachable."

Li Shimin hit a snag again, so he could only say emotionally and rationally: "I don't want to worry about the little food in your hand, but you should be very clear about how difficult my Tang Dynasty is now.

The army needs food when going out to fight, and the refugees who escaped from Hebei also need food. When we take down Liu Heita and appease the people of Hebei, we will also need food.

Daxingtai on the Eastern Shaanxi Road tried its best, but it could only raise the food needed for the army to go out.

The refugees who fled from Hebei to Luoyang don't have to worry about starving with your help.

But what about those people who are still in Hebei? "

Li Yuanji groaned, but did not rush to speak.

Li Shimin wanted the food in his hands for the people of Hebei, so he would not be so disgusted.

How miserable the people in Hebei are, he can see a thing or two from the refugees who fled from Hebei to Luoyang.

After experiencing one turmoil after another, the people in Hebei have been miserable for a long time.

With Liu Heita making such a fuss, the people in Hebei will definitely have a harder life.

After the soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty put down Liu Heita's rebellion, Hebei may have become a place full of starvation and death.

If he could contribute to the people of Hebei, he would naturally not refuse.

In this kind of matter, some small thoughts, some petty temper, some petty temper, all stand aside.

"After helping the refugees in Luoyang, the food in my hand is a bit rich, but it is not enough to help the people in Hebei. Even if the second brother takes away the rich food in my hand, it is only a drop in the bucket."

Li Yuanji said bluntly.

There are dozens of prefectures in Hebei. Even after one turmoil after another, there may be millions of people left in the end.

The little food in his hand is not enough for these people to stuff their teeth.

Li Shimin took a deep look at Li Yuanji and said, "Aren't you selling an official?"

Li Yuanji glanced at Li Shimin, and said angrily: "The subordinate officials in my hand are almost sold out, and there are no more officials to sell."

Li Shimin smiled lightly: "I still have..."

Li Yuanji was taken aback, then looked at Li Shimin in astonishment.

An emperor through the ages wants to resell the official title?

"You don't have to be surprised, as long as I can dig out food from those big families and help the people in Hebei, I can sell the official position in my hand."

Li Shimin said seriously.

He has his own little thoughts, but he also cares about the people in Hebei.

He knew that the foundation of Li Tang was the people, and if the people in Hebei could survive this catastrophe, then Hebei would soon be rejuvenated.

If most of the people in Hebei died in this catastrophe, it may take many years for Hebei to recover.

He is about to become Li Tang's heir, so he naturally hopes to inherit a vibrant Hebei, not a Hebei that is full of starvation and death.

Li Yuanji stared at Li Shimin thoughtfully, trying to guess what Li Shimin was thinking.

Li Shimin said generously: "Many of the officials under my command hold several positions. I can let them give up some unimportant official positions. There are also many vacancies for the subordinate officials under my command.

When we pacify Hebei, there will still be a large number of vacancies in Hebei.

My father has already entrusted me with the appointment of official positions in various places in Hebei.

These official positions can be handed over to you for sale. "

Li Yuanji looked at Li Shimin in astonishment.

Li Shimin wants him to make white gloves?

Li Shimin earns the benefits, but he bears the bad reputation?

Isn't this a little outrageous?

And Li Shimin's handwriting is a bit surprising, isn't it?
As for the officials under Li Shimin's command, each of them is either a Duke or a Marquis, and their part-time jobs are all high-ranking jobs.

Most of them were appointed by Li Yuan, so can this be sold?
There are thousands of officials who can be appointed in more than a dozen prefectures in Hebei, including governors, general managers and other high officials. Can this be sold?
"Why, dare not take it?"

Seeing Li Yuanji's shocked face, Li Shimin said with a half smile.

Li Yuanji came back to his senses, but hadn't spoken to him yet.

Then I heard Li Shimin say again: "This official position scares you. I am going to tell my father that he will sell some vacant official positions inside and outside the court for you to sell."

Li Yuanji instantly had the urge to scold his mother.

Li Shimin is cheating him.

The kind that goes to hell.

If he really sells all the officials who can be sold in the Tang Dynasty, his reputation in the Tang Dynasty will be rotten.

To describe it as smelling ten miles against the wind, it is light.

"Second brother wants my life?!"

Li Yuanji spoke unceremoniously.

Li Shimin stared at Li Yuanji and said with a smile: "You and I are a compatriot, how could I kill you?"

Li Yuanji glared at Li Shimin and said, "You want me to help you sell an official position, or thousands of official positions, what's the difference between asking for my life?"

Once a person's reputation has reached the point where he can't stand the wind, he would be better off dead than alive.

When you are alive, wherever you go, others will scold you.

If you die, you can still be clean.

Li Shimin smiled and said, "Didn't you realize that no one is competent in this matter except you?"

Li Yuanji rolled his big eyes.

Yes, I have a high status and a high status, and I am only under the three of them. I don't sell my official titles and play with power. I am really sorry for my status.

I have a bad reputation, I am used to being scolded, and it's okay to bear some infamy.

The most important thing is that, as the fourth son of the royal family, if I want a good name, I will only make you jealous, and if I want a bad name, I can make you feel at ease.

But why should I burn myself to illuminate you?
Do you think I am a match? !
Although I have no intention of competing with you, I also don't want to be your pawn and puppet!

"I think the second brother is more suitable than me."

Li Yuanji said blankly.

The smile on Li Shimin's face froze, and he winked at Changsun Wuji. Changsun Wuji wisely got up, apologized, and left the side hall.

Li Shimin's eyes fell on Xie Shufang again.

Xie Shufang looked at Li Yuanji against the sense of oppression that Li Shimin conveyed to him with his gaze.

Li Yuanji knew that Li Shimin wanted to say something private to him, but he didn't want to hear it.

"Second brother speaks directly, Xie Shufang is one of his own, so there is no need to shy away from it."

Li Yuanji said indifferently.

Li Shimin glanced at Li Yuanji, and said to Xie Shufang: "Pass on my military order, let all the generals come to the front hall of Luoyang Palace to discuss the military situation in an hour."

Li Shimin gave the order as the coach, and Xie Shufang, a general, had no way to refuse.

There was no way for Li Yuanji to stay, because Li Shimin was the commander of the army, and he was just a general manager.

"Here!"

Xie Shufang reluctantly agreed and withdrew from the side hall.

After Xie Shufang left, Li Shimin looked at Li Yuanji deeply, and said, "Silang, I, Li Tang, have only established the country for four years, and my foundation is still shallow.

Those who can mess with Li Tang in the world are not only Liu Heita, but also Liang Shidu and Turkic people.

Some people who surrendered me, Li Tang, will fight back when I, Li Tang, are in trouble, and become my enemies.

Some people who suffered under my rule, Li Tang, will rebel at any time.

What we can do is to conquer disobedient ministers and appease the people.

But whether it is to conquer dissidents or appease the people, food is needed. "
