The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

The court officials in the court hurriedly bowed their hands and listened attentively.

"You all have your own reasons. I thought about it and it is indeed inappropriate for the court to send any officials to supervise, but this matter is not without a solution."

"The court can send additional officials, so this does not count as doing official business."

"However, doing good deeds is a good thing, a private matter, and something that everyone can participate in. I know that the Jingyang Palace does not have so many people. If you want to do this well, you can't do it with less people. Everyone still needs to work together." Li Shimin slowly said: "Therefore, charity work should be done in groups. Having such a heart and taking such actions is a good thing for the people, and for those who participate in it, doing good deeds and accumulating virtue is also a good thing."

"Everything needs a leader. King Jingyang has set a precedent in this matter. However, if I say that all the people involved should be supervised by King Jingyang, some people will definitely be dissatisfied. Even if it seems nothing, they will feel uncomfortable in their hearts."

"The charity association is established, headed by the queen." Li Shimin said: "The women of each family can actively participate in it. These things will be left to the queen and the women. I will arrange King Jingyang's side. In this way, more people will participate in the good deeds of doing good deeds. With supervision, the court will not delay serious matters."

Li Shimin's words are plainly that men should do what men should do. Since they are officials in the court, they should do the court's affairs and handle the government affairs well.

As for these things, if their families want to participate, they can leave it to the women in their own houses to do.

Anyway, when each family does charity, it is the women with status in the family who come forward.

Especially when there is a disaster, porridge stalls are opened, and the mistress of each family handles these matters, and even brings her own servants to the scene to distribute porridge.

When doing these things, they may be more handy than the officials in the court.

Compared with men, women are always more delicate and sympathetic than the officials in the court.

"I know what some of you think." Li Shimin showed a sarcastic smile on his face.

Several court officials hurriedly bowed their heads and acted like quails.

"Some people don't trust King Jingyang, but the queen is involved. Do you also not trust the queen?"

"I dare not." Everyone said they dared not.

"In addition to the queen, the families of important officials in the court will also participate. If even they don't believe it, I would like to ask, who do you believe in?" Li Shimin squinted his eyes and looked at everyone.

"I believe in the queen and your majesty."

Li Shimin laughed.

"Changsun Wuji."

"I'm here." Changsun Wuji responded.

"What do you think of the charity led by the queen?" Li Shimin asked.

"Of course I fully support it, and my wife will also participate in it to assist the queen."

Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling again.

"Fang Xuanling, your wife has been to the palace before, and I have seen her. Let's go back and talk about it. Maybe she is also interested."

"Yes, yes." Fang Xuanling smiled: "My wife is very interested in doing good deeds and accumulating virtue. In the past few months, she has been busy giving out porridge outside every day. If there is such a good thing, she will definitely be happier."

"Yes." Li Shimin expressed his opinion and looked at Wei Zheng again.

Wei Zheng made him very happy today.

Finally, he said something happy and didn't spoil the fun.

Of course, even if it was a spoiler, it was not the fun of him as the emperor.

That's good.

Li Shimin felt happy when he thought about it.

Because it is really rare.

"Wei Zheng, you are a good minister, a loyal minister, and your wife is also involved."

"Your Majesty, I........."

"This is an imperial decree." Li Shimin was tough.

Even Wei Zheng's family members were involved, so who can say anything now?

Wei Zheng's wife's temperament is very similar to Wei Zheng's. In Li Fu's words, there are two kinds of people sleeping in the same bed.

To some extent, Wei Zheng's wife and Fang Xuanling's wife can be called the "two walls of the empire."

The wall of the wall.

The wall that can keep the emperor's will out of the house.

"Yes." Wei Zheng bowed his hands and responded.

It's okay, it's also a good thing, and it can be done with the Queen taking the lead.

The Queen is different from Your Majesty.

After discussing in the court, after the court was dismissed, the ministers also had a plan in their hearts.

I have to think about this matter carefully when I get back, and let my wife get involved.

They all know that this is a good opportunity to gain fame.

The female members of the family are listed in front of the Queen Mother and have a good reputation in front of the people. In the end, this reputation will fall on themselves.

Opposing in the court is not for profit, but for fame.

The reputation is given to King Jingyang, so what are the officials who work diligently in the court?

What happens among the people, what the court officials do, is not well-known.

But King Jingyang spent money on charity with great fanfare, and the reputation was spread out in a mighty way.

Compared with before, they are nothing.

This is not okay.

You can make money, even greedy, even if you hold an auction in the name of doing charity, and put the money from the auction in your pocket afterwards.

But if you want to be a good person, you have to compete with the officials in the court for reputation and achievements, isn’t that a bit too much?

It turns out that you are the good person, and all the dignitaries in the court are incompetent.

The same is true for the drought.

With so many people, the only solution they finally discussed was to issue official documents to beg for food, so that the people in Guanzhong could leave the pass.

As soon as you came back, you stopped issuing official documents, started opening the national treasury granary, and started transporting grain from the south to the north.........

How can you be so capable?

In fact, what Li Fu did was not unexpected by the officials in the court.

Even Li Chengqian knew that the canal could be used to transport the excess grain in the south to the interior of the pass.

But they didn't mention it.

Because they knew that it was impossible to do it at the moment, it was difficult to do it, or even too late.

Like Li Fu did, he directly opened the national treasury, and there was a chance of something going wrong.

Who would take the responsibility? In the end, if something unexpected happened, who would bear the consequences?

No one was willing to take such a risk.

And Li Fu dared to take the risk, and he had the confidence to take the risk.

If he really failed, it would be nothing more than his family fortune being scattered.

Even if the price of grain in the south rose as a result, his family fortune would be enough to replenish the grain in the national treasury.

Of course, it’s limited to food.

If one month can’t make up the difference, then two months will do. If the money is not enough, the industries under my command will continue to earn money.
