The strongest emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Chapter 714 Li Shimin's Opinion (Fifth Watch)
"Okay, since that's the case, I will go to Chang'an City in person. I'm afraid it will be difficult for my father to understand the truth if this matter is not up to me." Li Tai nodded and said.

So Li Tai began to prepare, ordering Mo Tiannan and Gao Ping to prepare all the printing plates, paper and paints he needed.Then he rushed to Chang'an City with Li Tai.

However, Li Tai's rush to Chang'an City this time was also not done with great fanfare.Instead, he got on the train very low-key and rushed to Mozhou City.

When Changsun Chong learned that Li Tai was coming, he was extremely happy.That night, a sumptuous banquet was set up for Li Tai to wash away the dust.

At the banquet, Changsun Chong asked Li Tai, "Brother Huang, why did you come to Chang'an in person? Is there something important that can't be done?"

"You're really right. If this king doesn't come forward in person, I'm afraid no one in the world can do this." Li Tai said with a smile.

"I don't know if the emperor can tell my brother-in-law a thing or two. Also let me learn more about my brother-in-law first." Chang Sun Chong asked Li Tai with a smile.

"Tomorrow you will know, why rush for this moment?" Li Tai said to Chang Sun Chong with a smile.

"It seems that brother-in-law still has something to do, and I'm going to let my brother-in-law handle it. If there is anything that needs to be done by brother-in-law, brother-in-law just ask. Brother-in-law will definitely take care of it for you." Chang Sun Chong said to Li Tai.

"Tomorrow, the king will go to the palace to meet the emperor, but he doesn't want to disturb other people. So I can only trouble you and Lizhi, and bring us into the palace quietly." Li Tai said to Changsun Chong.

This can't help but brighten up the eldest grandson, after all, it is not a trivial matter to bring someone into the palace privately.So Zhang Shuncong asked Li Tai: "Why is the emperor unwilling to show up? Is this really such a big impact?"

"There's no need to guess here. The reason why this king doesn't want to show up is because he doesn't want to cause too much trouble. If Cheng Yaojin and the others find out, this king has returned to Chang'an City."

"Do you think they will let me be quiet? If I don't offer some benefits, I'm afraid it will not be so easy to go back to Youzhou." Li Tai said with a sigh.

"I said what's the matter with you, Brother Chong. You can do whatever Brother Huang asks you to do. Why do you have to be such a mother-in-law." Li Lizhi gave Changsun Chong a white look and said.

Li Lizhi's performance made Gao Ping and Mo Tiannan secretly want to laugh.Because Li Lizhi's savagery is simply well-deserved.

……

Early the next morning, Princess Li Lizhi of Changle and her consort Sun Chong.He took two large boxes with his followers and entered the palace.

When Princess Li Lizhi of Changle came to the palace, no one dared to question her.So Princess Changle went very smoothly, and came to Li Shimin's imperial study.

Seeing Li Lizhi and the eldest grandson coming, Li Shimin couldn't help but smiled and said: "Recently, you two have been coming to the palace a lot. Could it be that you suddenly became filial?"

"Father, you are really difficult to serve. Usually, the couples come here rarely, and the father said that the sons have forgotten the father. Now they come here frequently, and they are teasing the sons." Li Lizhi said after giving Li Shimin a white look. .

"Okay, okay, it's not enough that I blamed you. I brought two big boxes today. Could it be that your emperor brother brought me gifts again?" Li Shimin said to Li Lizhi with a smile.

"I don't know whether to give gifts or not, but I only know that these two boxes are empty." Li Lizhi said to Li Shimin.

This made Li Shimin feel a little strange, so he asked Li Li, "Since there are two empty boxes, why do we need two people to carry them? Could it be that the empty boxes are very heavy?"

"Because I dare not make my father's son too tired. So even if it is an empty box, two people are required to carry it." Li Lizhi said to Li Shimin with a smile.

Hearing Li Lizhi's words, Li Shimin carefully looked at the person who carried the box.With this look, Li Shimin instantly recognized Li Tai.

It turned out that the two boxes were carried into the palace by Li Tai, Li Tianming, Mo Tiannan and Gao Ping.

"You kid is playing tricks there again. Now that you've come to Chang'an, why don't you come to see me in a fair manner. Instead, you play these mysterious tricks." Li Shimin said to Li Tai with a warm and angry face.

After Li Tai put down the box, he saluted Li Shimin with a smile and said, "Father, you have to be considerate of my son. Now I dare not show up easily. Otherwise, this swindle will not be beaten less."

"When will you grow up, kid? You have done so many great things. But you always seem so petty. I really don't know what to say about you."

"Since you came to see me, you are definitely not here to show your filial piety. If you have something to say, hurry up, lest Cheng Yaojin and the others bump into you later, but you will have nothing to do with me." Li Shimin said to Li Tai.

"Father said this, just like my son, why don't I respect my parents. But I really let father say it right. It's true that my son came to see father this time." Li Tai said to Li Shimin with a smile.

Then he handed over the sample banknotes he had brought with him to Li Shimin.Li Shimin took it over and took a look, but at first he didn't see why.

After all, Li Shimin only looked at the front, so he only saw the dragon flag of Datang and his own portrait.Then there is the figure of one hundred yuan.

But when Li Shimin turned it over to look, he saw a copper coin printed on the back, and the words Kaiyuan Tongbao were impressively written on the copper coin.

This inevitably made Li Shimin understand a little bit, so he asked Li Tai: "What is this thing, why is there a portrait of Zhen, and Kaiyuan Tongbao printed on the back?"

"Father, my son established the Youzhou Daji in Youzhou, and the number of daily transactions is very large. Therefore, carrying coins has become a troublesome thing."

"Although it is more convenient to bring silver and gold, most of them are small transactions, so the gold and silver are not convenient to use. So I racked my brains and finally came up with a solution."

"That is to print paper money, and then the bank stores gold as the gold standard. Then issue this paper money." Li Tai said to Li Shimin.

"This is a feasible solution, but I'm afraid it's not that simple..." Li Shimin then raised a worry that was completely different from Liu Rengui's.

Naturally, Li Tai couldn't help explaining again, and finally let Li Shimin understand.However, Li Shimin raised a new problem, that is, it is not appropriate to have his own portrait printed on the coins.

Because in Li Shimin's heart, he thinks he is the Son of Heaven.If my portrait is used by ordinary people at will, I am afraid that it will damage my majesty.

It's no wonder Li Shimin thinks this way, in this feudal era.Even if it is a piece of writing written by the emperor.People also offer three sticks of incense at home in the morning and evening.

So how could Li Shimin agree to print his portrait on the coins.Let the people use it as a transaction currency at will.
