Datang all-rounder

Chapter 137

After receiving the news from Li Jing and the others, Wang Ke reckoned that Comrade Li Er must have some thoughts in his heart after their insinuations during this period of time. He knew that it was time for him to appear on the stage.

Wang Ke pretended that nothing happened and he didn't know anything, and came to Comrade Li Er's imperial study.

As soon as Wang Ke entered the imperial study room, before Wang Ke had time to salute to Comrade Li Er, Comrade Li Er waved: "Okay, don't salute, come and take a look at these memorials, what do you think!"

Wang Ke hesitated for a moment, and asked with some unease: "Your Majesty, this memorial is for you to read. How can I have the right to read it. If the emperor wants anything, let me do it."

Comrade Li Er waved his hands very irritably and said: "What can I do, now I am very embarrassed by what Li Jing and the others reported, and I don't know what to do."

As soon as Wang Ke heard Comrade Li Er say this, he immediately knew that Li Jing and the others had nothing to do these few days, so they gave Comrade Li Er an excuse, kept talking about difficulties, and made Comrade Li Er into what he is now. look like.

Wang Ke was secretly amused, but she didn't show it on her face. Instead, she asked with a very worried look: "Master Li and the others, what did they say to embarrass the emperor?"

Comrade Li Er picked up the few memorials in front of him, handed them to Wang Ke and said, "You can read it yourself."

Wang Ke still didn't dare to look, waved his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I dare not look at it."

Now Comrade Li Er was a little annoyed, and said sharply: "You can watch it if you are told to. There is so much nonsense. After reading it, tell me what you think!"

Seeing that Comrade Li Er was really angry, Wang Ke quickly took the memorials, opened each one and read them carefully.

The memorial is full of classical Chinese, which is completely different from the usual language. Wang Ke only knew the general idea after guessing.But even if Wang Ke didn't read it, he also knew the hidden meaning in these memorials. His purpose of reading it now was to pretend to be in front of Comrade Li Er, and he really wanted to see what these gangsters were doing. Give yourself a reason, and when you say it later, you can follow their meaning, lest you say something wrong.

When Comrade Li Er saw Wang Ke covering the memorial, he asked, "Have you finished reading it? Tell me if you have any thoughts!"

Wang Ke pretended to be very ashamed and said: "Your Majesty, I don't quite understand the format of my writing. After reading it for a long time, I didn't fully understand it. I just understood the general meaning. Please also ask your majesty to think about it." Would like to answer the emperor again."

Only then did Comrade Li Er remember that Wang Ke didn't understand this kind of writing, so he couldn't help laughing and said: "Your poems are pretty good, but how can you be so incomprehensible in composition? I really can't figure it out. Anyway, you Think about it quickly, and tell me when you think about it."

Wang Ke turned around in the study, not thinking of a solution as Comrade Li Er said, but thinking about how he should talk to Comrade Li Er about this matter.He also knew that the prohibition on the citizens of the Tang Dynasty from leaving the country was a prohibition drafted by Comrade Li Er in conjunction with Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province when Li Yuan was the emperor and Comrade Li Er was in office. Not many years have passed. Comrade Li Er was required to issue an edict to abolish it, which was really embarrassing for Comrade Li Er, and Comrade Li Er was also afraid that some people would say that he changed the order overnight.

With Comrade Li Er's personality, it is absolutely impossible to do this. However, although Li Jing and the others did not expressly say that the ban is bad in their memorial, it has indeed greatly hindered the current situation. Comrade Li Er himself is also understandable.What Wang Ke has to do now is to let Comrade Li Er let go of his worries and resolutely ban this ban, so that the people of Datang can freely enter and leave the territory of Datang just like foreigners who travel to and from the territory of Datang. border.

Wang Ke thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out how to start it. In the end, he decided that he could only use guidance and let Comrade Li Er talk about this topic first. He can also grasp the psychological changes of Comrade Li Er very well, and will not leave himself with unexplainable problems. After all, Comrade Li Er is also very smart, and it would be bad for him to understand if he talked too much.

Wang Ke looked up at Comrade Li Er and said, "What does your majesty think about this?"

When Comrade Li Er heard this, he immediately understood that Wang Ke was playing tricks on him again, and said without the slightest expression on his face: "I asked you to express your opinion and ask me what to do? I have no opinion!"

Wang Ke was a little bit blind at this moment. Comrade Li Er refused to reveal his thoughts. This is how Wang Ke should proceed.

Seeing Wang Ke standing there with a bitter face, Comrade Li Er felt a little anxious in his heart, and said angrily, "Say, what are you doing in a daze!"

Wang Ke had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Your Majesty, I don't think these things are big things. As long as one thing is solved, everything will be solved."

"What? Isn't it a big deal?" Comrade Li Er looked at Wang Ke with some surprise and asked, "Then what do you mean if things are solved, it's not a problem, and everything can be solved?"

This time Wang Ke was really cornered by Comrade Li Er. If he didn't want to talk about it, it was completely impossible to listen to Comrade Li Er's thoughts first. Speak out your thoughts and let Comrade Li Er decide.

Wang Ke gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, these few memorials of Mr. Li and the others all said one thing, that is, no one from our court is allowed to leave the country except those sent by the court. This prohibition makes many things impossible now." It can be done. Master Li and the others can’t do things in violation of the prohibition, so everything has become like this.”

Comrade Li Er stared at Wang Ke, and said in a flat tone: "You mean to abolish this ban, and these things can be resolved. Right?"

"Correct!"

Wang Ke couldn't care less, anyway, he had already said it out, and now Comrade Li Er had no choice but to let Comrade Li Er kill or cut him up.Wang Ke looked at Comrade Li Er's face, trying to see something from his face, but Wang Ke was disappointed. Comrade Li Er's face did not show any fluctuations in expression, calm as if nothing happened.Wang Ke could only wait, waiting for Comrade Li Er to deal with him.

Comrade Li Er was silent for a long time before he said: "Is there no other way but to abolish this ban?"

Seeing that Comrade Li Er was not angry, Wang Ke breathed a sigh of relief and said, "How should I put it, if there is no other way, it is impossible, but it is too dangerous to do so."

Comrade Li Er folded his hands on the desk, leaned forward and asked, "What method? Let's listen first."

Wang Ke said slowly: "Your Majesty, please look, Mr. Li and the others are concerned about the terrain and environment of the surrounding countries, as well as the distribution of towns. There is also the road situation. Except for the people in my court, no one else cares about these things." I will help us to do it. If the people of my dynasty are not allowed to freely enter and leave our country, then we can only secretly send people to neighboring countries to carry out this activity. Once this is discovered, the subsequent ministers, the emperor should also know .”

Comrade Li Er nodded heavily and said: "This is indeed a problem, so why not pretend to be a commoner and go out as a businessman?"

When Wang Ke heard this, he couldn't help laughing. Comrade Li Er glared and asked, "What are you laughing at? Isn't this method feasible?"

Wang Ke put away his smile and said: "Your Majesty, if the ban is abolished, this method will work, but it will never work if the ban is not abolished."

"Why?" Comrade Li Er was a little puzzled.

Wang Ke explained: "Your Majesty, all countries know that our dynasty does not allow our people to leave the country, and the trade between countries and our dynasty is completed by merchants from various countries. If a caravan from our dynasty suddenly appears on the plains, , who would doubt it, and check all the way, how can the task be completed."

Comrade Li Er was stunned for a moment, but he forgot about this trouble.

Seeing that Comrade Li Er was in a daze, Wang Ke took the heat and said: "Your Majesty, besides, all countries are very yearning for the goods of our court, but because of this ban in our court, all the money is earned by merchants from various countries. Yes, and our court only received a little tax. If our businessmen can enter and leave the country at will, then our court's tax revenue will definitely increase a lot. It is logical for the court to send people out to understand everything .The imperial court can also hand over some things to businessmen in a disguised form. Isn’t this the best of both worlds?”

Comrade Li Er became interested and asked, "How can I let a businessman do it?"

Wang Ke came to the court and said: "The distribution of towns, population size, and road conditions can all be done by merchants. Because merchants want to sell goods, these are things they must know. When we need to know these things, we can ask them Knowing that, the people sent by the imperial court can concentrate on other things.”

Comrade Li Er nodded thoughtfully, staring straight ahead, without making a sound for a long time.

Wang Ke knew that Comrade Li Er was thinking. At this time, he had better sit beside him and not say a word, so that he could figure out the relationship. It was a waste of so many people to stage this big show.

After a long time, Comrade Li Er finally spoke: "Is there no other way to solve this problem other than abolishing the ban?"

Wang Ke knew that Comrade Li Er had begun to waver, so he shook his head and said: "No. Your Majesty, I know what your Majesty thinks. I am afraid that this ban will be abolished before it is implemented for a long time. Some people will say that the Emperor's order will be changed every day. In fact, the Emperor does not need to worry. At least the common people will not object, they are not in a hurry when they are happy. As for the ministers in the court, I don’t think the emperor needs to worry about them. From time to time, this plan has never changed quickly. Now the situation is different from before. This law needs to be amended if it doesn’t fit, let alone such a prohibition.”

Wang Ke thought for a while and then said: "Besides, can this prohibition be able to be imprisoned? I don't think it may be! If we seriously investigate now, we may be able to find out many illegal immigrants. Blocking is worse than sparse, since If you can’t stop it, you might as well let it go. Wouldn’t it be better for everyone to be happy.”

Wang Ke's words made Comrade Li Er understand immediately, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

Looking at Wang Ke, Comrade Li Er said: "It seems that this matter must be resolved, but I can't make this decision immediately. I have to discuss it with Fang Aiqing and the others. This matter is very important and cannot be made casually." Decide."

When Wang Ke heard this, he was as if struck by lightning. He didn't expect that he would spend so much time and talk, thinking that he had completely persuaded Comrade Li Er, and this matter had been completely resolved.Unexpectedly, Comrade Li Er was so stubborn that he still didn't make the final decision.But after thinking about it, Wang Ke immediately felt relieved. This is not a big problem. He immediately went to inform those old killers and asked them to look for those old ghosts. Don't believe that Comrade Li Er is not in the set if you do it in the front!

Thinking of this, Wang Ke hurriedly said: "It's better for the emperor to be considerate than the minister. Now it seems that the emperor doesn't have anything for the minister to do. Please allow the minister to resign!"

Comrade Li Er waved his hand, Wang Ke hurriedly bowed out, turned around and arrived at Li Jing's place.
