Datang: Signed in for Seven Years and Was Exposed by Empress Changsun

My own sister doesn't support the eldest grandson's family, so I support the eldest grandson's family.

Therefore, the privatization of this salt is inevitable, and whoever prevents privatization is his enemy.

And Fang Xuanling is similar, the founding hero.

Although he is not a nobleman, he is also an important minister of the court.

His power is no worse than Du Ruhui, the prime minister, and in private, his property is all over Chang'an.

With Changsun Wuji, a like-minded aristocratic friend, the salt business will definitely do well in the future.

So he is also very supportive of the privatization of salt. When the imperial court does not monopolize it, the Fang family and the eldest grandson's family will monopolize it.

Now that he has Li Hong's support again, he is even more proud.

After all, they all knew Li Hong's identity, he was the prince.

The powerful contender for the crown prince is also the celebrity in front of Li Shimin.

Li Shimin will basically listen to everything he says, after all, his ability lies there.

He is much better than the other princes, maybe Datang may belong to him in the future.

The faction that does not support the privatization of salt is led by Du Ruhui and Wei Zheng.

Both are veterans, and their thinking is extremely conservative.

Considering Datang's treasury, there is also the issue of taxation.

So they firmly disagree with privatization. Fortunately, both of them are high-ranking people.

On the contrary, he was able to stand up to Changsun Wuji, a nobleman who was related to the emperor, and Fang Xuanling.

As a result, people from each faction were attracted and became ministers with different opinions from the two factions.

This is the most troublesome place for Li Shimin, a group of ministers disagree.

Then in the future, wouldn't it be intrigue among the court, who would speak out their opinions unscrupulously?

They are all afraid of being caught by the other party and then played.

So he invited Li Hong and asked him to find a way to solve it.

Seeing that Li Hong supported privatization, Li Shimin was very puzzled.

"General Li, tell me your reason!"

Before Li Hong could speak, Wei Zheng beside him became unhappy.

"Your Majesty, I admit that General Li is outstanding in some aspects, but this matter is obviously that General Li has no vision. After the Turks around the Tang Dynasty are pacified, the world will be peaceful.

At that time, if it is privatized again, the old minister will definitely not object. "

"Yes!" Fang Xuanling also nodded, "I also agree with Wei Lao."

Du Ruhui and Xi Ni could not participate in this faction struggle, but he had to.

Because I am the prime minister, if I pretend not to know about this matter.

When the time comes, the two factions will divide and they will isolate themselves.

At that time, my prime minister was emptied of by these people and became a prime minister in name only.

This was not what he wanted to see, so he joined Wei Zheng's side.

Because Wei Zheng needs balance here.

Chapter 213 Support who?

Why not join Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji? This was Du Ruhui's thought after careful consideration.

In fact, the privatization of salt has nothing to do with me.

Anyway, I can afford salt.

But as a prime minister, he must think of the court.

So thinking of Wei Zheng's consideration of the treasury and tax issues, he still stood by Wei Zheng's side without hesitation.

Besides, although Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling are powerful.

But it is not as good as Wei Zheng, because Wei Zheng is Li Shimin's most valued minister.

Even his own prime minister is not as good as Wei Zheng, even though Changsun Wuji is a relative of the emperor.

But with the pressure from the eldest grandson empress, he dare not be too arrogant now.

Moreover, he has won over many ministers in the court, and his power is already too great.

If he is left alone, Datang Sheji will be in danger.

Sooner or later, I, the prime minister, will be emptied by him, and then the court will really speak his mind.

His eldest grandson Wuji couldn't see it, so he would definitely try to get rid of it.

So no matter what it is for, he can no longer help Changsun Wuji grow bigger.

Because his power threatened not only Datang, but also himself.
