Datang: Begin with Li Shimin as a father

Chapter 60
Tai Chi Palace!
In the imperial study.

Cheng Yaojin unwrapped a bundle.

The gold and silver inside are fully displayed.

"Your Majesty, this is the money Chu Mo brought to you from the eldest son of the Emperor!"

Li Shimin looked at the pile of glittering gold and silver, and his face instantly became joyful.

I have a good son!
such a short time.

Made so much money again.

"Your Majesty, this is a letter from the eldest son of the Emperor, sent to His Majesty silently."

Cheng Chumo took out the letter from his sleeve.

Bang!
The silver ingot accidentally fell to the ground.

When Cheng Yaojin saw it, his face turned green on the spot.

"You idiot, how dare you hide silver ingots privately, let me see if I don't beat you to death!"

Cheng Yaojin rolled up his sleeves, ready to do it!

Don't do it!

If you wait for His Majesty to blame you, that guy will be guilty of a serious crime.

"Father, I didn't keep it privately, it was my seventh brother who made money for me on the way."

After hearing Cheng Chumo's words, Li Shimin immediately stopped Cheng Yaojin.

"Zhijie, stop. Let Chu finish talking silently."

Cheng Chumo explained the ins and outs of this silver ingot in detail.

Li Shimin Longyan said happily.

"My son, Li Gen, has everyone's demeanor!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Cheng Yaojin and his son immediately sent the rainbow fart.

This well-timed flattery really made Li Shimin very happy.

"Zhijie, Chumo, sit down and drink tea!"

Li Shimin opened the letter and spread it out carefully.

My Father:

See literally!

My father has been away for many days, and I don't know if I have enough food and warm clothes...

call!
Li Shimin's eyes instantly turned red!

There are more than a dozen princes and princesses of Li Shimin, and no one knows how to ask for warmth like Li Gen.

Li Shimin rubbed his eyes and continued to look down.

Father, the letter has been read!
The boy was very happy to learn that everything was going well.

Everything is fine in Chang'an City, our restaurant is open, and our shop is also open.

In a few days, when the tea from Jiangnan arrives, we can make a fortune again.

Boy let Brother Chu Mo bring you some gold and silver, you can do it with confidence.

If the money is not enough, ask someone to send a message back.

All the money earned by the baby will be kept for you!
Seeing this, Li Shimin felt a little pain in his heart.

What a kind and filial child!

However, he actually defrauded him of his money by beating around the bush.

To be honest, my conscience hurts a bit!
Li Shimin took a deep breath and continued to look down.

Father, I have good news for you.

Hai'er is about to take part in the imperial examination, and Hai'er is lucky enough to meet Prince Hejian, who recommends Hai'er to the Imperial College and visits Kong Yingda, the chief bookkeeper of Kong.

The prince and Master Kong are very kind to the boy, and the boy will always remember it in his heart.

Father, you don't need to worry about your child. The child is studying hard every day, just to get a title on the gold list.

Although our father and son are far apart.

But the child knows that the father's heart is tied to the child.

Father, take care of yourself!
.........

Li Shimin held back the tears that welled up in his eyes.

If Cheng Yaojin and Cheng Chumo were not there.

At this time, Li Shimin will definitely wet his clothes with tears!
After all, Li Shimin is an emperor, so he quickly calmed down.

In the imperial study room, there are all four treasures of study.

Li Shimin swiped his brush and ink, and began to write vigorously!
"Chu Mo, after ten days, I will hand it over to Gen'er. In these ten days, don't show your face in Chang'an City."

"Chumo, please follow His Majesty's orders!"

Li Shimin nodded in satisfaction, and suddenly remembered the silver ingot.

"Give me that silver ingot. I'm so young, with such a large amount of money, I'm worried that you'll go to Pingkangfang to learn badly."

Confiscating other people's money, but also said so confidently.

In the whole world, only he, Li Shimin, could do this.

Even though Cheng Chumo had 1 of them, he had to obediently hand over the silver ingots, unwillingly.

Cheng Chumo's heart is bitter, but Cheng Chumo can't say it yet!
Not to mention that Mao didn't get anything, and he had to be confined in the mansion for ten days!

Ugh!
It's more than tears!
Suddenly, hurried footsteps sounded outside the imperial study room.

"Your Majesty, the eldest son of the emperor has gone to the East Market!"

Li Junxian entered the imperial study room and directly opened his mouth to report.

"Oh, nothing happened?"

Li Shimin's face was full of concern.

"Your Majesty, the eldest son of the emperor bought four puppies at the usual cost."

Hearing this, Li Shimin stood up with a bang.

"Which unscrupulous businessman is he? I have to clean him up today!"

Li Shimin was angry, very angry!
Li Gen made money, but he saved it for himself.

The four puppies are asking for the same price, which is clearly a robbery!

On his own territory, stealing his own son's money!
This is purely courting death!

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

"The spy who secretly protected the eldest son of the emperor saw and heard it with his own eyes. It was the eldest son who left the money and left."

After hearing Li Junxian's words, Li Shimin was obviously taken aback.

Before His Majesty asked, Li Junxian then told the truth about what Baiqisi's spy had heard and seen.

An old man who sells dogs.

Four puppies ask for four coppers!

Seeing Li Gen asked in surprise, the price was reduced to two copper coins, and after deducting the commercial tax, it was only one copper coin!
Li Gen threw down the consistent money, picked up the four puppies and left.

The old man didn't respond for a long time.

In the end, I kowtowed tearfully to the direction where Li Gen left!

After listening to Li Junxian's words.

Li Shimin frowned.

Li Gen's words rang again in Li Shimin's ears.

"Father, you must treat the common people better."

"There are steelyards between heaven and earth, and the weights are ordinary people!"

In an instant, Li Shimin frowned.

"Jun Xian, go down and tell your subordinates that they have done a good job, and I will reward you a lot."

After Li Junxian left, Cheng Yaojin took Cheng Chumo and left the imperial study.

Li Shimin collected the gold and silver and walked towards the Lizheng Hall with great strides.

"Guanyin maidservant, this is Gen'er's reply to me."

Empress Changsun took the letter and spread it out carefully.

Soon, Li Shimin realized that something was wrong.

Because of Guanyin's servant girl, she even covered her face and sobbed.

"Guanyin maidservant, we should be happy, this kid is so sensible."

"Well, the concubine shed tears of joy!"

Li Shimin held Empress Changsun's hand tightly, and said with red eyes.

"Just now in the imperial study, if Zhijie and Chu Mo were not there, Erlang's tears would fall."

"During the early court, I received a report from Niu Jinda that the grain they transported from Jiangnan had arrived in Luoyang!"

"The waterway reaches Luoyang, and from Luoyang to Chang'an, it can only be transported by horse-drawn carriage."

"According to Gen'er's anti-drought strategy, the most critical time now is to dig deep ditches and divert water into the canals."

"The Ministry of Industry has urgently manufactured thousands of Quyuan plows for the common people's spring plowing. It is still being manufactured day and night. The effect is really very good."

"Guanyin maidservant, all of this is due to Gener's contribution, and I will remember it for him."

"I, believe, we will survive this drought and locust plague."

Suddenly, there were hurried footsteps outside the Lizheng Hall.

"Your Majesty, Empress. For some reason, the Supreme Emperor suddenly started smashing things..."
