Chapter 52 Li Shimin's domineering (please collect, please recommend!!!)
The officials looked at the seeds of different sizes and were a little confused.

"What is this? It's heavy."

"This yellow one seems to be some kind of crop?"

"Hey, isn't this rice?"

"..."

The ministers either observed with their eyes or felt with their hands.

These seeds, except rice, the other ministers have never seen.

Even the rice is different from what they have seen, it is much fuller.

Li Shimin watched the reactions of the officials with satisfaction and let them keep guessing.

Finally, Hubu Shangshu hesitated and said:

"Your Majesty, could these be, seeds?"

All the ministers stopped their movements and stared at Li Shimin together, trying to get an answer from him.

Sitting high on the dragon chair, Li Er sneered:
"Don't you think that it is nonsense that I met an immortal?"

"I'll tell you, these are the seeds, the seeds of fairy food!"

"It's an immortal master. He saw my virtue, so he bestowed it on me!"

Li Shimin was full of confidence, and repeated what he had said about introducing these seeds to Changsun Wuji and the others.

[-] jin of potatoes per mu, [-] jin of corn per mu that can be squeezed out of oil, rice that can withstand drought and have a higher yield...

Every time he said a word, his voice became louder.

Every time he said a word, the hearts of all the officials in the palace beat faster.

"With these, within the territory of my Great Tang, there will be no more people starving!"

"With these, my Great Tang will make the country rich and the people prosperous, and foreign countries will not be invaded!"

"I ask you, if it weren't for immortals, where would I get these auspicious signs?"

Li Shimin's voice echoed in the hall, waiting for his voice to disappear.

silence.

Deathly silence.

In the entire hall, no one made a sound.

Then, there was the sound of breathing.

Rapid breathing.

Except for the three of them, Changsun Wuji, who already knew about this, everyone was panting heavily.

"Your Majesty!" Wei Zheng felt that his voice was a little tight, "You just said that, really?"

"Wei Zheng!" Li Shimin shouted sharply: "This matter is related to the fate of the Tang Dynasty, why should I say half a lie?"

Wei Zheng also knew that he had made a slip of the tongue.

This statement cannot be false, since there are seeds, the results will be known after planting.

Even if His Majesty exaggerated a little, the rice yield of Datang at this time was only more than two hundred catties per mu.

As long as there are crops that can produce more than a thousand catties per mu.

No, as long as it exceeds five hundred catties, it is an unimaginably auspicious thing!

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty!" Wei Zheng responded quickly, "God bless my Tang Dynasty!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, God bless Tang!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, God bless Tang!"

All the officials also shouted excitedly.

"One more thing."

Li Shimin stretched out his hand and pressed it, and the hall suddenly fell silent.

"The immortal master also bestowed on me the technique of movable type printing, and told me about the disadvantages of the imperial examination."

"After hearing this, I learned from the pain and decided to promote the reform of the imperial examination!"

Next, Li Shimin put forward all his ideas.

Now some people couldn't sit still. This group of people were all from noble families, and they knew that Li Shimin didn't think they would deal with them.

They thought that the talk about immortal food just now was just Li Shimin's excuse.

Now, it's time to see the poor!
As soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, a group of officials immediately came forward to object and would rather die to speak out.

Some people even said bluntly: "If your majesty wants to reform the imperial examination system, you don't have to oppress ministers and others in the name of immortals!"

"What His Majesty said just now is just empty talk. I don't know the yield of these crops per mu!"

Above the court, the influence of the gentry is still very deep.

This is one of the reasons why they dare to speak out so directly.

This is also the reason why Li Er wants to eradicate the noble family.

A dangerous light flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, but he still said kindly:
"Then wait for these crops to mature, and I think Zhu Qing will have no reason to object by then, right?"

No one responded.

These people's hearts sank suddenly.

It will take several months for the crops to mature. During these months, Li Shimin will not easily put aside the reform of the imperial examination system.

A few months is too long, so long that various accidents will happen.

These few months are enough for him, Li Shimin, to spread the deeds of the immortal to all parts of the country.

Even if these auspicious signs are false, Li Shimin can carry forward the reform of the imperial examination system before harvesting.

If they dared to object, they would have disobeyed the immortal's instructions.

When the time comes, the deal is done, and it will be Ren Lier who decides.

No, I can't agree!

"I think that to prove the existence of immortals, we only need to see how effective the strategy of exterminating locusts is."

"If the plague of locusts can be solved, it means that His Majesty has met a real immortal."

"If there is no result, then maybe the demon has deceived His Majesty."

Fang Xuanling stepped out at the right time, giving both parties a step up.

Li Shimin was silent for a moment, his face a little ugly.

The hearts of these ministers moved slightly, could it be that the fairy tales were just fabricated by His Majesty?

Driving chickens and ducks to exterminate locusts is a fantasy, and they don't think they can succeed.

Immediately, a minister came forward to echo Fang Xuanling's statement, which made Li Er's face even more ugly.

Finally, these gentry courtiers all stood up and agreed to the matter.

As for Li Shimin, he could only let out a long sigh, and reluctantly agreed.

……

After the dynasty was dispersed, Yuchi Jingde got Li Shimin's instruction and drove out of the palace without stopping.

He wants to take away all the chickens and ducks inside and outside Chang'an City within these two days, and take them to exterminate the locusts.

Seeing his hurried back, many ministers couldn't help but joke:
"General Yuchi has led troops to fight for many years, but he doesn't want to lead chickens and ducks to fight one day, hahaha!"

In the palace, Li Shimin left the three of them, Changsun Wuji, behind.

"The immortal master has another strategy, I want you to do it, and do it in a hidden way!"

Li Shimin recalled Jiang Sheng's poisonous plan for him, and looked at the three confidantes in front of him with a serious expression.

Immediately, he told the three people about the banknotes.

The three of them were terrified when they heard this, and in this way, the Turks were driven to a dead end!

But at the same time, they were faintly excited.

The Weishui alliance is still in sight.

This is a great shame to Datang!

Now, the opportunity to avenge his shame is at hand.

They have to consider whether this is their only chance in this life.

It is their duty to recast the glory of Datang!
"Your Majesty! I will die!"

"I am willing to plan this matter!"

"The minister is also willing to contribute to this!"

Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui spoke out one after another.

Li Shimin nodded: "The three of you will be fully responsible for this matter. This winter, I will send troops to the Turks!"

He did not disclose more information, Jiang Sheng told him that in the original history he conquered Turks next winter.

And he, Li Shimin, is about to change his fate against the sky, and he will crush the Turks this year!

At the beginning of spring next year, Na Jieli Khan must be allowed to sing and dance for himself in this Tai Chi Palace!
Li Shimin looked into the distance, his heart agitated.

The domineering aura of the emperor is clearly evident at this moment!
