He didn't understand it at the time, but now that he survived by such a coincidence, he found that it really seemed to be the case. His whole body became more active, and his appetite improved a lot.

This made Li Shimin instantly decide that he must take the children to plow the entire imperial garden, otherwise he would be sorry for the few rakes he got.

For the emperor, the most important task every day is to go to court early!

This is not only an occasion for reporting work, but also an occasion for discussing major national affairs. Basically, there are no trivial matters that can be discussed in this place.

But today, after the officials went to court, they were surprised to find that before His Majesty came, there was a strangely shaped plow in the center of the court.

They are all adults. Even if they have never worked in the fields themselves, they still have the knowledge they should have. This is obviously a plow rake that they have never seen before.

Although they didn't know the effect of the plow rake, it was meaningful to be placed in the center of the court so majestically by His Majesty.

As soon as Changsun Wuji saw the plow rake that had been repackaged and polished, he immediately turned his head and saw Duan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, following behind him.

When Duan Lun saw Changsun Wuji glance over at this moment, he was still a little puzzled, but when he saw Changsun Wuji secretly pointing forward, Duan Lun's face turned pale.

What else does it mean to point forward, it means Your Majesty, why just remind him?

Cooperating with the plow rake placed in the middle of the court today, what other meanings could it have, except to remind him that he might get sprayed today.

I don't know if this seat can be kept by then!

As Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Duan Lun has lived in peace and stability for several years. He is not only the minister of Conglong when the Li family raised troops, but also Li Yuan's son-in-law, who married Princess Gaomi.

Originally, after Li Shimin ascended the throne, he planned to be honest and avoid bad luck, but he didn't even think that he would be criticized today, and he was reminded by Changsun Wuji that something big might happen!

Alas, forget it, stretching the head is also a knife, and shrinking the head is also a knife. Anyway, when he was the governor of Yizhou during the Wude period, someone accused him of treason.

Now the Minister of the Ministry of Industry is actually just trying to catch the ducks on the shelves. If His Majesty really cut him off, it doesn't matter. Anyway, he is now Doctor You Guanglu and the Duke of the County. With the addition of the son-in-law of the Supreme Emperor, he wants to be a knight. Of course it won't be cut.

Then you might as well take this opportunity to resign and go home as soon as possible, and live an honest life.

After all, even though he and this majesty are relatives, they actually don't have a very good relationship. It might happen that one day they make a mistake in an errand, and they really lose their title, but there is no place to cry.

Chapter 255 Li Shimin beats the Ministry of Industry

After Li Shimin went to the court to accept the worship of the officials, he did not immediately accept the opening ceremony of the officials, but pointed to the plow in the middle and said,

"My dear friends are all well-informed and well-informed people. Does anyone know what this is?"

Among the officials present, Changsun Wuji is undoubtedly the clearest, but at this time he will not show up foolishly, His Majesty obviously has arrangements, and in all likelihood, he wants to beat Duan Lun, and he will join in at the moment. Go up, even if you will get sprayed, you should just stay there!

The insider, Changsun Wuji, did not speak. Although the others recognized it as a plow rake, they had never seen it before, so naturally they would not open their mouths.

There is a big principle in this officialdom, that is, do not seek merit but seek no faults, even if you are a bastard in the court, as long as you stay in peace and stability for a few years, if you don't make mistakes, you can slowly increase your rank go up.

Usually, there are people who would like to flatter and flatter, but in today's situation, it is obvious that His Majesty has some arrangements, so it is better not to speak rashly, because if you don't flatter the horse's legs, the loss outweighs the gain.

Therefore, it is obvious that all the courtiers present are old fritters who are well versed in the rules of officialdom. Even Wei Zheng, the number one fan of the Tang Dynasty, is looking down at his fingernails at the moment, as if there is a growth on them. A flower is coming.

He, Wei Zheng, is not stupid, he can spray what he should for the country and the people, as long as he takes the righteousness, even if he points at Li Shimin's nose and scolds the faint king, Li Shimin can only accept it.

But if someone really thinks that there is nothing wrong, and they can spray a meal in front of Li Shimin with just one thing, then the old birthday star is just looking for death by eating arsenic.

It's really shameless to be an emperor, is it true that Li Shimin killed his brother and imprisoned his father to ascend to the throne of God is a soft-hearted person?

So, after seeing that even Wei Zheng had stopped at this moment, the other courtiers became even more quiet, bowing their heads and shrinking their necks like quails, wishing they could stuff their heads into their crotches right now.

Li Shimin obviously expected this kind of scene long ago. If you don't speak up, why can't I call names? Anyway, today's play is specially arranged, and it's okay if the protagonist doesn't appear on stage.

"Duan Shangshu, your Ministry of Industry governs skilled craftsmen all over the world, and you should be most familiar with the art of building and construction. I wonder if you can clear up my confusion!"

When Duan Lun heard Li Shimin's roll call, his brain was buzzing, and he really couldn't escape it. Brother Auxiliary Machine reminded him rightly, His Majesty seems to be staring at the Ministry of Industry today!

But even if the knife is up to the neck, what should be answered is still to be answered. It just needs to be pondered carefully. Therefore, Duan Lun walked slowly to the center, took another look at the strange-shaped plow rake, and answered in a deep voice. road,

"Forgive me for being stupid, I can only tell that this is a plow rake, but I don't know how effective it is, where it was made, or where it came from!"

After Li Shimin heard Duan Lun's answer, he didn't reply, just looked at him silently, and the whole court fell into a strange calm.

However, the others were a little relieved at the moment. It seems that His Majesty is going to take Duan Lun for surgery today, so it's no big deal, as long as he doesn't involve himself, it doesn't matter.

Li Shimin was silent for a while, and after realizing that Duan Lun was sweating from the cold weather, he finally spoke,

"I got this from a friend, and I exchanged several Huangzhuang!"

"After changing back, yesterday the Empress Chen Niuzhen personally helped the plow and plowed a small piece of the imperial garden. Today, all the princes and princesses have to learn how to plow the land!"

"My children can't become idiots who don't eat meat, so I will teach them by example!"

Speaking of this, there was a lot of flattery from "Your Majesty the Holy Spirit" in the hall.

However, Li Shimin's trick was really good. The emperor and empress played leading roles in person, and the prince and princess also played supporting roles. They also planted crops in the imperial garden.

It's just that after Li Shimin finished these few sentences, even though he was flattering in the hall, he didn't show a smile, instead he frowned and looked at Duan Lun and said,

"Duan Shangshu, as soon as I used this plow yesterday, I found that this plow is lighter and less labor-intensive than the previous straight plow. It can be dragged even by manpower. It is really worth exchanging a few Huangzhuang for it! "

"However, I really want to know, the Ministry of Industry has countless skilled craftsmen, why can't they make such a plow?"

"After all, although this plow is an artifact that benefits the country and the people, if I have to exchange it with Huangzhuang in the future, I'm afraid my Huangzhuang will not be enough!"

This is a bit heavy-handed. Doesn't the implication of this statement mean that the Ministry of Industry is a bunch of drunks and rice bags.

Obviously, the Ministry of Industry raised a large group of people, but in the end His Majesty had to exchange Zhuangzi for these artifacts, so are these people from the Ministry of Industry being raised for nothing?Could it be that Duan Lun, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, did it for nothing?

Who can hang out in the court, who is not a person who can know the elegance after hearing the stringed songs?Li Shimin's words were almost straightforward, how could Duan Lun not understand.
