Carefree Prince In Tang Dynasty

Chapter 243: Calculated

There was a brief silence in the hall. Everyone was immersed in this almost magical fact, and it took a long time to recover.

Are you kidding me? The Minister of Etiquette and the Minister of Household Affairs impeached an unemployed King of Chu who did not carry any official positions. The result was that the King of Chu had nothing to do with it. Instead, the two of them had a scandal and almost ended their political life. One simply returned home and completely took off his black hat. ...What day is today? Is it guilty of Tai Sui?

In the crowd, Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong glanced at each other tacitly, and both saw a full smile in each other's eyes.

Happy! Usually they are the gang of warriors who are not able to understand the literature and ink. They are forced to come to Taiwan by the civil officials. They can only get away with the old qualifications and big fists, so they can get out. Now they have a Wenqu star in the ranks of military officers? The civil servants who have a set of principles, just say a few words and bluff the hall are speechless. Isn't this happy?

Frankly speaking, with Cheng Yaojin's knowledge, he really didn't understand the relationship between merchants and Jiangshan Sheji. However, after listening to what Li Xin said just now, he began to agree that business might indeed be beneficial to people's livelihood. It can be seen that Li Xin's speech is indeed easy to understand and has unique characteristics.

However, although Cheng Yaojin was inclined to Li Xin's side in his heart, he did not show any signs in his actions. This is his old hotness. He always remembered his duty as a military minister. He knows that it doesn't matter if you are a veteran. His Majesty is even happy to see such a thing, but if it is a serious matter of the court, as long as the matter does not involve yourself, then don't talk indiscriminately.

On the one hand, he knew nothing about other things except leading soldiers to fight. Less mixing meant less chaos. On the other hand, he believed in the skills of the old foxes like Li Shimin and Chen Yin. If there is something that they can't even decide, then Cheng Yaojin should just shut up and act as a tortoise, so as not to be scolded.

After Li Shimin approved Han Donghua's verbal resignation without hesitation, he gave Li Xin a meaningful look.

It was this look that made Li Xin stunned all over his body, as if a fox had noticed the gaze of a hunter peeping in the dark.

Just as Li Xin was about to say something, Li Shimin spoke: "Although the national policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business cannot be easily changed, the words of the king of Chu really enlighten me."

Li Xin hurriedly said, "Where and where, the minister just said something..."

Li Shimin raised a hand and motioned to Li Xin without saying more.

Under the eyes of everyone, Li Xin was concerned about the emperor's majesty, and was not good at playing tricks on his relationship with His Majesty Li Er, so he had to shut up honestly.

"The household department is the most important place to control the world's money and food. It must have a deep enough understanding of merchants." Li Shimin said.

The Hubu Shangshu Dai Xu, who had been pretending to be dead in front of courtiers, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty is extremely true."

The eldest Li Shimin was very satisfied with the little brother’s perfect cooperation and nodded, “Since the king of Chu has some insights into merchants’ affairs, then, I announced that the Ministry of Households will temporarily set up the position of'consultant', no grade and no salary, and the king of Chu He is responsible for explaining business affairs to the household officials. Xuan Yin, what do you think?"

Dai Xu replied without hesitation: "The minister seconded."

"The minister agrees." His Royal Highness and the ministers said in unison. Especially the old foxes such as Chen Yin and Cheng Yaojin, all smiled openly, and gave Li Xin a sneaky peek.

Li Xin's eyes widened, and there was only one voice left in his heart: Damn, it was calculated!

For a time, the joy of overthrowing Han Donghua and Zheng Bowen disappeared without a trace.

I have to admit that Li Shimin's methods are really clever, and this sudden "consultant" job was just right, leaving no room for Li Xin to refuse.

Imagine that Li Xin made a generous statement just now to fight against the Confucian scholars, and the two servants were speechless. What is this for? Not to emphasize the importance of business. Okay, now, Li Shimin recognizes the importance of commerce and recognizes that merchants have a role in promoting the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. In this way, it is reasonable for the Ministry of Household to strengthen its understanding of business, right? This is their job after all. However, the question is here, who can help the Ministry of Households to strengthen their understanding of business?

Isn't it Li Xin who talked the most? Therefore, Li Shimin's appointment of Li Xin as a consultant to the Ministry of Households is completely logical, and it is so natural that people can't find the slightest fault.

If Li Xin wants to refuse, there are only two ways to go: Either he can avoid being incompetent, or he can just say that he doesn't want to be an official. However, these two roads seem to exist, but they don't work at all.

First of all, he was still crackling and talking so much just now, and he immediately withered, saying that he didn't know much about merchants, which was obviously inappropriate. What do you think of Chaotang? Do children play house? Moreover, Li Xin could not choose this way. Because that will affect the weight of what he just said in the hearts of courtiers. He never hoped so.

Secondly, refuse directly. This problem is even bigger. Li Xin himself said that businessmen played a big role in the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. At this moment, he was asked to introduce the use of merchants to the Ministry of Household, but he refused instead. Why? Is it because you don't want to help your Majesty create a great Tang Dynasty?
