Cultivation of chastity

Just when the undercurrent was surging throughout Chang'an, Li Tai finally brought his family to Chang'an.

However, the posture of King Wei entering Chang'an was quite eye-catching, and the carts behind him had an unknown amount of money, food, and cloth. After all, the whole Chang'an knew that King Wei was very rich, so there was no need for King Wei to show off.

But it must be said that Li Tai's personal guards were a bit too conspicuous.

Each of the personal guards wore full-body armor with reflective metallic luster, a large shield in their hands, three or four Tang knives on their backs, and a bow and crossbow in their waists. Unconsciously a little daunting.

"Tsk tsk, King Wei is so high-profile when he returns to Beijing!" A scholar who was rushing for the exam couldn't help feeling emotional when he saw the scene in front of him.
"The guards around him seem to have nearly a thousand people. It's so domineering to walk through the market like this. I don't know how many people have been alarmed!"

"What do you know, the king of Wei was assassinated a few years ago, and the sage specially gave the king of Wei a thousand guards, if you don't put these thousand guards on the surface, you will be disrespectful to the saint!" the student from the capital next to him Shen Sheng said.

"So that's how it is!" The candidate who was rushing to take the exam nodded, suddenly realizing how much he was.

Of course, there are many people in Chang'an watching the excitement. After all, it is not unusual for King Wei to be recruited to Chang'an by Li Shimin during the Chinese New Year.

However, since the assassination incident, King Wei has not come to Chang'an. Now that King Wei is still coming to Chang'an, at most people are thinking that the traitor who killed King Wei was caught.

When Li Tai returned to Wei Wangfu, he didn't rush to the palace, but did a good grooming in Wei Wangfu.

And I haven't been to Chang'an for many years, and I don't quite understand the current needs of Chang'an.

"Wouldn't that be tarnishing the court's face with the stench of copper!" Wei Zheng couldn't help frowning when he heard Li Tai's words.

He was still waiting in the side room, and when he went to see Li Shimin, Li Tai looked at the people around him, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng, Gao Shilian, and Li Jing who came to be a wooden man.

The longer Qingque kept it in his hands, the more he got. Otherwise, if the court took it back, the money and food would go to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the money that went to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, what does that have to do with me.

To be honest, under normal circumstances Li Jing is not used, but now the military has only three real pillars besides Li Shimin.

Li Tai couldn't help being taken aback when he heard Li Shimin's words, Aye, are you so decisive?No more thinking about it?

After getting enough rest, Yan Wan took the pigeons to meet Empress Changsun the next day, and as for herself, she went to the Tai Chi Hall to meet Li Shimin first.

Even if it is built, it will only be open to the people on special days such as the Lantern Festival. At that time, the sage will not be able to avoid danger if he does not have fun with the people.

In the future, Henan Yin will resign, and he will be dispatched to Chang'an to work as a minister of the Ministry of Industry! "

"The so-called landmark building means that when others see Chang'an City, they will definitely see this building, and they will definitely remember this building when they leave Chang'an City."

At that time, the princes of the surrounding countries will come to give advice, and they will be able to clearly feel the brilliance of our Great Tang culture.

Even though it was just a grassroots exchange, for Li Tai, Li Tai could completely bypass the middle management of the Ministry of Industry and directly order the corvees to work.

Now that Li Tai's ability can be used normally, it is almost impossible for Li Shimin to stop Li Tai.

The Ministry of Industry wanted to constrain Li Tai, fearing that Li Tai would kick him out of the Ministry of Industry instead.

"You just came to Chang'an, what project do you want to do!" Li Shimin asked curiously when he heard Li Tai's words.

In addition, the prince was able to listen in on the sidelines, but Li Shimin never canceled Li Chengqian's right.

However, how much money can this make.

In the few years when Zhenguan first came to the throne, life was miserable. Now that he has managed to get rich, he can't be polite.

It's just that if the craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry fail to meet the standards in the process of building the Vientiane Shrine, they can only be eliminated! "

"This..." Li Shimin didn't have any objection when he heard this. The Ministry of Industry was supposed to do this.

Fang Xuanling said in a deep voice, "The problem of money and food will be settled by the king of Wei, so there is no problem, and the next thing is to build the Vientiane Shrine!"

One is Li Jing, one is Li Shiji, and the last one is Hou Junji.

So unless it was an occasion where Hou Junji had to come forward, most of the time, Li Shimin called Li Jing.

"Aye, I plan to build a palace that is 95 meters high, or 99 meters high, called the Vientiane Shrine.

However, at this moment Hou Junji was still under the deliberate suppression by the imperial court, wanting to temper Hou Junji's temper.

To be honest, Li Jing has retired now, basically he doesn't have to go to court.

"I thank the saint!" Li Tai said to Li Shimin, "Aye, do you have any project for me to start?"

"Everything is Aye Xianda, the court is clear, Qingque is just doing what he can do on this basis!" Li Tai said to Li Shimin very politely when he heard Li Shimin's words.

The reason why Li Shimin wanted Li Tai to be the Shaofu supervisor was not just to give full play to Li Tai's ability to come to Qiankeji.

But Li Chengqian has become a habit of asking for leave one after another in the past two years.

If these people come to fight for power and profit, and play tricks and tricks, they are really not as good as the children of those aristocratic families, but if they let King Wei do practical things, these people are really capable.

With one land, you have created [-]% of the country's tax revenue, especially the local people have praised you a lot. "

At that time, Li Tai will be able to arrange the middle-level cadres according to how Li Tai wants to arrange the middle-level cadres.

However, Li Shimin's expression soon became serious and he said, "These days, you have done a good job in Henan Road.

As for Li Shiji, he had just defeated Xue Yantuo, but the army wanted to clean up the battlefield, and more importantly, resettle Li Simo's tribe.

To be honest, Fang Xuanling was quite surprised by Li Tai's handling skills. Taking the project as the guide and evaluating his subordinates through work, even if the Ministry of Industry went on strike, it didn't matter to Li Tai.

Therefore, Ercheng felt that the Lantern Festival, a special day, was a common festival for the Tang Dynasty, and the Vientiane Shrine established by the imperial court could be opened to the common people, so that the common people could also come and enjoy the sight of the Vientiane Shrine.

"Since you are willing to pay Qingque, then... I will allow you to contract for 50 years!" Li Shimin calmly and decisively said.

Fang Xuanling looked at Wei Zheng's gaze, walked out helplessly and said, "Sage, Rong Chen can ask King Wei a few questions."

"I'll give you a project to try in the Ministry of Industry..." Li Shimin couldn't help thinking when he heard Li Tai's words.

"As long as you don't need the money and food from the treasury!" Li Tai looked at Wei Zheng and said calmly.

"This..." Li Shimin's eyes instinctively enlarged when he heard Li Tai's words.

After all, isn't this so-called Vientiane Shrine not finished yet?

Li Shimin nodded and said, "You are humble and know the gains and losses, I am very relieved!

"Those people just finished building the road, and they just have nothing to do!" Li Tai said calmly,

Because through this project, Li Tai can completely judge who can use it and who can't.

"Think about it!" Li Shimin couldn't help but cast a glance at Fang Xuanling. This is to be taken back to the imperial court, not to the inner palace.

Li Shimin watched Fang Xuanling come out, and couldn't help saying with a bit of helplessness in his expression, "Xu Fangqing speaks freely!"

Don't think that Li Shimin doesn't know about money and food. To some extent, Li Shimin is the emperor who is most short of money.

After hearing Li Tai's words, Fang Xuanling understood Li Tai's meaning, nodded, and agreed with Li Tai's decision.

Wei Zheng looked at Li Shimin's appearance, and it was obvious that Li Shimin couldn't resist Wei Wang's sugar-coated shells at all.

And Li Jing is also very knowledgeable. Basically, as long as Li Shimin doesn't ask himself, he just bows his head and closes his eyes.

After all, it was from Shuozhou to Chang'an. Compared with Li Tai running back from Luoyang, it was too far away.

If Aye is not there, the number of people entering the attic can be slightly increased that day. The most important thing is that, except for certain designated personnel, those who want to enter the Vientiane Shrine need to pay tickets.

After dealing with these miscellaneous things, he is still on his way back now.

But when half of the military problems were encountered, Li Shimin still let Li Jing sit in and participate in government affairs.

Li Shimin knew that it would not be difficult for Li Tai to build the Vientiane Shrine, but it needed money after all.

For Li Shimin, he likes palaces the most, such as his own Lishan Courtyard, such as his own Luoyang Palace.

Hey, but there were various problems in Luoyang Palace, and Yan Lide, who had been using it quite well, was kicked out.

"But the palace is built, if it is put there for nothing, it is a waste.

Although King Wei came to Beijing alone at the moment, he has cultivated a team of corvees rooted in the grassroots and middle-level management school students during his more than ten years at the grassroots level.

Of course, letting go is also divided into multiple modes. For example, if Aye wants to have fun with the people, he will reduce the number of people and arrange for the people to bathe and change clothes before they can meet the sky.

"So, King Wei already has some ideas in his mind?" Wei Zheng stepped forward and said, "However, although the treasury has some savings, it is not so extravagant and enjoyable!"

And if you usually have time to visit this place, you can see the whole city of Chang'an at a glance. "

Fang Xuanling understood that Li Tai's main purpose was not to build this Vientiane Shrine to make money at all, but to use his own corvees to replace those of the Ministry of Industry through the construction of the Vientiane Shrine, so as to control the Ministry of Industry.

Anyway, we have to collect money for the tickets we distribute, and the one with the highest price wins! "

"Aye, it's actually not difficult to ask my ministers to pay for the construction, but the Vientiane Shrine that I hope to build is not only for the use of my royal family, but also for the common people to visit during certain holidays!" Li Tai said to the audience. Li Shimin said.

When Li Tai heard Fang Xuanling's words, he couldn't help but cast a glance at Li Shimin. Li Shimin coughed facing Li Tai's gaze, "This money and food should come from my internal funds!"

Li Tai has just returned to Chang'an, if Li Tai is rich, then he is rich, but there is no reason for Li Tai to pay for it as soon as he comes back.

"Letting them come to build this Vientiane Shrine is also to find some work for them, so the problem of corvee is not a problem.

"Qingque most wants to do projects related to people's livelihood, but Qingque just came to the Ministry of Industry and doesn't know much about the operation of the Ministry of Industry.

"It sounds pretty good!" Li Shimin couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this.

Li Tai shook his head, and then said to everyone, "Aye has always taught me to put the people first, and the people are like water, and water can carry a boat or overturn it, so I founded an agricultural school, and put the people first in everything.

When Li Tai said this, he said calmly, "And I only contract for 50 years, after which all the income of this palace will belong to the imperial court. Don't say that I took advantage of the imperial court!"

Wei Zheng couldn't help looking at Fang Xuanling, and said with his own mental strength, "It's your turn, I advise you!"

A group of people looked at each other, thinking in their hearts that if the king of Wei really paid for the construction, and 50 years later, all the income from the palace would belong to the imperial court, it would not be impossible.

With Li Shimin's permission, Fang Xuanling calmly asked Li Tai:
"His Royal Highness, since you want to build this project, if the money and food don't come from the court, where will it come from!"

"The responsibility of the Ministry of Industry has always been to build the Zhaoling Mausoleum, why not let King Wei expand it!" Du Ruhui suggested.

Holidays give the people a chance to stand on the stage and look down on Chang'an, which can at least generate income for the imperial court. "

This is what he thinks of himself, Li Shimin must have this kind of tolerance.

So it's best to try a project for Qingque first, so that it will be much more convenient for Qingque to work. "

Li Shimin looked at Li Tai who had grown a lot taller, and felt somewhat joyful in his heart unconsciously.

Not to mention, when Li Tai came back today, he basically came to praise Li Tai, and Li Chengqian didn't want to come here, so he followed Li Shimin to ask for leave and went to have fun in the East Palace.

But the first thing his son did when he took office was to build a grave for himself. Li Shimin felt weird!

"I think it's better to build a landmark building for Chang'an!" Li Tai said,

And Fang Xuanling wanted to move his mouth at this moment, at least to reduce the 50 years in the hands of King Wei to 20 years, but he didn't expect Li Shimin to react so quickly, so Fang Xuanling had no chance to intervene at all.

"King Wei, don't take advantage of the sage's love for you, that is to act recklessly!" Wei Zheng said seriously when he heard Li Tai's words.

Thinking of this, Fang Xuanling couldn't help but sighed slightly, and said solemnly: "His Royal Highness, as long as the money is not allocated from the imperial court and people are not burdened by corvees, then I will not stop you from building the Vientiane Palace. Please random."

Li Shimin: "..."

For some reason, when Li Shimin looks back at the Lishan Courtyard and Luoyang Palace that he worked so hard to build in Zhenguan these years, he always feels that his life is so hard.

But thinking about it, Li Shimin narrowed his eyes again when he imagined that the Vientiane Shrine was built without paying for it himself.

Qingque, your filial piety to Aye, Aye has received it!
