Chapter 218

Wei Hao heard Cheng Chuhei say that Li Shimin and they were going to come to his house for lunch, and they were very depressed, and their house was not going to start a fire at noon, but now they have to cook.

"Mother, mother!" Wei Hao went outside the living room and shouted loudly.

"What's wrong?" Wang came out of the kitchen.

"Your Majesty and some ministers are coming to our house for lunch, you can arrange it quickly!" Wei Hao, you stood there and shouted at Wang.

"Ah, eh, yes, yes!" When Wang heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he was very happy, his in-laws came to his house to eat, so don't prepare well, not to mention, this in-laws are the emperor.

After Wei Hao finished his order, he returned to the living room.

"What's that out there?" Cheng looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"Snacks, just when you don't want to eat, you can make this to eat, eat at noon, and get you a bowl!" Wei Hao said with a smile.

"Do so much?" Cheng asked in surprise.

"I haven't returned yet, and now the small snacks you sent from the house, my family can't get them, you know, these snacks are available in ordinary people, there is no way, I can only serve them myself!" Wei Hao looked at Cheng Chuji and said proudly.

"Okay, I have it too, right?" Cheng said happily.

"Yes!" Wei Hao nodded affirmatively.

"That, if you return the gift, it is estimated that it is also very good to send some white rice, let me tell you, the rice I ate at your house last night is the best rice I have eaten in my life, that kind of delicate, not stuck in the throat is the feeling, it is really unforgettable, the rice you brought back from yourself yesterday was just handed over to my father, let my father take it back!" Cheng said to Wei Hao,

When Wei Hao heard it, he immediately rolled his eyes: "How can there be a return gift for rice, but you also reminded me that you can send some together when the time comes, so that everyone can taste it!" ”

"That's it!" Cheng Chuji nodded,

Soon, Li Shimin's motorcade arrived at the gate of Wei Hao's house, Wei Hao and Wei Furong arrived at the gate to greet them, and the middle gate had been opened!

Li Shimin got down from the carriage, and Wei Hao and Wei Furong immediately bowed.

"No courtesy, in-laws, I came to your house for dinner today! Want to taste your food! Li Shimin said with a smile.

"Welcome, welcome, please, Your Majesty, please inside!" Wei Furong immediately spoke, and Wei Hao was also standing there without any expression.

"You kid don't welcome me?" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and asked.

"Welcome, but it's almost the New Year, father, don't you pit me again!"

"What am I going to do with you? Am I like that, kid? Li Shimin immediately said to Wei Hao with a straight face,

Wei Hao rolled his eyes, Li Shimin didn't care, and walked in with a smile behind his back.

"Father-in-law, please inside!" Wei Hao saw Li Jing coming over, and immediately arched his hand and said,

Li Shimin heard it, looked back, and then thought very unhappily: "This rabbit cub really has an opinion about himself." ”

"Servant shot, please inside!" Wei Hao continued to greet those princes.

"Oh, my uncle is here, please inside!" Wei Hao saw the eldest grandson Wuji, and said very enthusiastically,

The eldest grandson Wuji also nodded with a smile, and when they arrived at the courtyard of Wei Hao's house, they saw a lot of white balls placed in the courtyard, and they didn't know what they were.

"I said Wei Hao, Wei Hao?" Li Shimin stood there and shouted Wei Hao, and when he found that Wei Hao didn't come in, he immediately shouted loudly, Wei Hao heard it outside, and ran in helplessly.

"Father, what's wrong?" Wei Hao asked as he walked over.

"What are these?" Li Shimin pointed to those things and asked.

"Small snacks, make them yourself, my family hasn't given those honors in return, isn't this, hurry up and do this?" Wei Hao said to Li Shimin.

"Can you eat this?" Li Shimin walked over, squatted down and picked up a rice ball, and looked at it carefully.

"It's raw now, it needs to be cooked before you can eat it, I'll make you one at noon, it's definitely delicious!" Wei Hao immediately said to Li Shimin,

Li Shimin heard it, nodded, then stood up, pointed to the dumplings in the distance and asked, "That is also eaten?" ”

"Yes!" Wei Hao nodded.

"Two in-laws, and all of you, go to the living room, it's cold outside!" Wei Furong stood there and said very enthusiastically.

"Well, let's go, go to the living room!" Li Shimin also nodded,

Soon, the group arrived at the living room.

"Eh, it's still a little smaller, Wei Hao, your mansion, but you need to hurry up and build it!" Li Shimin sat down and said to Wei Hao.

"Do it well next year!" Wei Hao sat there and said.

"Well, okay, when the time comes, go to the new mansion and sit, it's bigger over there, but my father didn't give you less land!" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and said,

He just wanted to curry favor with Wei Hao, this kid is angry with himself now.

"Come, bring it up, that, Your Majesty, your in-laws and all the nobles, this is Hao'er's glutinous rice balls and dumplings, you eat first, pad your stomach, the kitchen is cooking, it will be good soon!" At this moment, Wang brought a few maids over, carrying rice balls and dumplings, and there were 4 in each bowl.

"Yo, it's the ones outside, but you have to try it!" Li Shimin said very happily, and then the Wang family personally served it to them, other women, but they don't have this qualification, and those who send food to His Majesty, ordinary women, are not qualified!

"Hmmm! It's delicious, it's delicious, that, sister-in-law, get me another bowl, oops, this one is delicious! Cheng Yanjin took it in his hand and quickly killed a bowl.

"Uncle Cheng, I'll have to eat later!" Wei Hao immediately reminded him.

"If you don't eat, just eat this, the old man likes to eat this!" Cheng Yanjin immediately said to Wei Hao.

"Okay, since Su Guogong likes to eat so much, then I'll make it for you!" Wang also smiled and said, what her son made, they liked it so much, of course she was happy.

"Mother-in-law, bring me a bowl too, this is really delicious, better than food!" Li Jing also said happily at the moment.

"Uh-huh, I, I!" Li Shimin was eating, and when he heard them say this, he immediately raised his hand and signaled that he was coming too.

"No, father, father-in-law, you are here to eat, not to eat snacks!" Wei Hao looked at them helplessly and said.

"If you don't eat, you'll eat this!" Li Shimin spoke, and the other ministers also nodded.

"That's okay, the concubine will cook some more!" Wang said very happily, and then went out with the maids.

"Well, you kid, why is this so delicious, and what is it made of? And it looks snow-white, and there is stuffing in it, which is very delicious! Li Shimin asked Wei Hao.

"The dumplings are made of rice flour, and the dumplings are made of flour!" Wei Hao replied to Li Shimin.

"Flour, rice flour? Don't lie to me, it's not like I haven't seen rice flour and flour, and the things that are made can't be so white, how did you do it? Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and continued to ask.

"It's true, my family Hao'er got two what, what's it called, yes, the machine, specially used to peel rice and make flour, really, very from, the rice is snow-white, and so is the flour!" Wei Furong said very happily.

"And something like that, machines? Cheng, take me to see it! Li Shimin immediately said, and the other ministers were also very interested, there are still such good things in the world, and they can make rice and white flour so white.

"Cheng, I'll take you to have a look, it's in the courtyard of my house!" Wei Furong stood up and said happily, Wei Hao didn't want to move, he still wanted to make a snack, there were no days left for the New Year.

Soon, the group arrived at the room where Wei Hao's house was specially used to put these two machines, and saw that the horses were earning money around the machine, and the snow-white rice came out of a small opening, and the amount that came out was not large, but it was continuous. The same is true for the flour side, the snow-white flour comes out of the machine, making them dumbfounded.

"This, put millet in here, rice come out here, how did you do it, by the way, here's chaff, hey, is there such a thing?" Li Shimin and those ministers are also studying the two machines at the moment.

"Your Majesty, how did you come up with this?" Cheng Yanjin was looking at the flour machine, and shouted at Li Shimin.

"How do I know? That Hao'er, how did this come out? Li Shimin immediately looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"It's just this machine to get it out, if I say it in detail, you can't understand it, anyway, there is something inside, peel out the chaff, grind off the outer layer of green skin, and the same is true for flour, peel off the shell, and then start grinding and finally come out with a hundred noodles!" Wei Hao looked at them and said.

"Hao'er, this, I eat yellowed rice and flour, you?" Li Shimin said to Wei Hao very excitedly.

"Father, don't worry, I'll send it to you later!" Wei Hao immediately spoke.

"Your Majesty is asking you to send him a machine!" Cheng Yanjin immediately reminded beside him.

"That's not sending, just kidding, a machine costs tens of thousands of dollars, it's very difficult to do, but I've been doing it for a long time to make it, don't send it!" Wei Hao immediately shook his head and said.

"I have money, can't I buy it?" Li Shimin opened his mouth and said, thinking that he was the emperor, and he didn't even eat the best, what kind of emperor was that, and there were thousands of people in the palace, if there was such a machine, then he would eat such rice and white noodles in the future.

"Don't sell, tired, I want to take a break!" Wei Hao immediately waved his hand and said.

"Hey, it's not for you to sell it now, it's for you to sell it when you're free!" Li Shimin continued to say to Wei Hao.

"That's okay, but it's going to take a long time, I don't have the kung fu right now!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

"How much?" Li Shimin just heard Wei Hao say that it costs tens of thousands of yuan, and he still needs to inquire about this.

"Well, I don't know yet, I'll tell you when I figure it out, but it doesn't take to be cheap." Wei Hao thought about it for a while, and said, in fact, this didn't cost much money at all, and 10 yuan would be up to the sky.

But Wei Hao still doesn't want this machine to spread out, but, on the other hand, if it spreads, it would be good for the people to be able to eat rice and white noodles!

"Cheng, Cheng, you are still a great kid, you can still make such a thing!" Li Shimin is still studying the machine, but he can see it clearly.

Soon, the group arrived at the living room, the meal was ready, the rice balls were ready, and Wei Hao invited those people to the table.

"Your Majesty, come, drink! I'll accompany you and a few glasses! Wei Furong said to Li Shimin.

"Come, come, it's mainly this kid who hasn't been crowned yet, by the way, the date of the crowning is set on the eighteenth day of the first month, right?" Li Shimin asked Wei Furong.

"Yes, when the time comes, those sisters of his, as well as his aunts and grandmothers, will come back!" Wei Furong nodded and said.

"Well, this is a big thing, it needs to be done, after the crown, it needs to be an official, of course, he doesn't want to be a person now, then it's okay!" Li Shimin sat there, nodded and said.

"After the crowning, accompany the old man to drink, the old man likes to drink with young people the most! I was bored with drinking with your father-in-law, and I poured it in a few bowls! Cheng Yanjin said happily, Li Jing heard it, just stared at Cheng Yanjin, why did he expose his shortcomings?

"That's also amazing, a few bowls!" Wei Hao said in surprise, a few bowls of wine, that's okay, he didn't know that the current alcohol content was not much higher than beer.

After eating, Li Shimin was going to the living room of Wei Hao's small courtyard, and Wei Hao asked the subordinates in the family to clean up their living room, where they had dried flour before.

After arriving at Wei Hao's courtyard, Li Shimin sat down. looked at Wei Hao and said: "The family is very abnormal this time, you blew up so many houses yesterday, the officials of the family, they don't dare to impeach!" ”

When Hu Hao heard it, he was also stunned for a moment, then thought for a while, and said a little proudly: "They are also afraid of death, afraid that I will blow up their house!" ”

When the others heard this, they laughed, and it is true that this reason cannot be ruled out.

"Well, what are you going to do with those guys?" Li Shimin then looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"They want to assassinate a county duke, although they are the heads of the family in Chang'an, but they are also white, such a person, shouldn't they die?" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin and asked.

"Well, damn it, they damn it in that way, it's just that there's no proof of it right now!" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao, hesitated for a moment and said.

"Then I'll kill them, I'll kill them, no evidence is needed!" Wei Hao immediately looked at Li Shimin and asked.

"Huh?" At this moment, Li Shimin was a little shocked, and the others were also a little surprised, Wei Hao must let them die.

"Father, they want to kill me, can I keep them? They deceive people too much, a few families, dealing with me is a kid, it's really shameless, since they want to kill me, then they must be prepared to die, otherwise I can worry, the family is thinking about killing me every day! After all, this time, I have moved their great interests! Huh! Wei Hao sighed as he spoke,

Li Shimin and the other ministers, of course, knew why Wei Hao sighed, originally Wei Hao didn't want to go, it was forced by His Majesty.

"Well, come on, they use the shops to give dividends to those officials, I can define those officials who are corrupt and take bribes, and those who are in charge, they are the officials who woo our dynasty, damn it!" Li Shimin heard Wei Hao say this, nodded, and said,

Wei Hao has already achieved this level, and he definitely won't let Wei Hao kill people, he still needs to do it himself.

"By the way, next, do you have any thoughts on the Ministry of Civil Affairs?" Li Shimin asked Wei Hao.

"I, what can I think, father, I don't know about the affairs of the Ministry of Civil Affairs!" When Wei Hao heard Li Shimin ask this, he was a little surprised and said, worried that he would arrange for him to go to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to hold some official position.

"Your Majesty means that you are very familiar with the settlement of accounts, but there is a way to avoid letting those families transfer their money as before!" Fang Xuanling immediately explained to Wei Hao.

"Oh, this, yes, bidding plus supervision!" Wei Hao was relieved when he heard this, and immediately spoke.

"Recruit what? Tender? What is it? Li Shimin and those ministers looked at Wei Hao very incomprehensibly.

"That is to say, what the Ministry of Civil Affairs needs to buy, it will be announced to the world, so that those who have the ability to provide this kind of material in the world will come and sign up, and after their quality has passed the inspection of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, they will start bidding, and the price will be low, and the court will buy it." Wei Hao said to them.

"Oh, that's fine! But you don't have to do everything, do you? Fang Xuanling heard this, his eyes lit up, and he looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"Of course, if it's a small thing, then buy it directly, I said it's a big thing!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

"Well, it's possible, but there's a problem, if it's all from the family to supply, they can collude!" Eldest Sun Wuji touched his beard at this moment and said.

"Officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs won't investigate prices? Besides, if you bid for bidding, there must be three to sign up, otherwise, if the bidding fails, you will continue to bid, unless you are really Datang can produce one, such as paper, then there is no way, you can only buy it from the paper workshop, in addition, their family colluded, at this time, it is necessary to supervise, and the department of supervising hundreds of officials is established! Wei Hao looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and said.

"There is Dali Temple!" Fang Xuanling said.

"There is a hairy use, the Ministry of Civil Affairs has been like this for so many years, Dali Temple has not played a certain role, and Dali Temple has been returned!" When Wei Hao heard it, he rolled his eyes and said,

Li Shimin heard it, but he didn't make a sound, and he also knew in his heart that Dali Temple was not ineffective, but there were many people from the family on the side of Dali Temple.

"But how do they operate when they set up a surveillance, and what do they mainly investigate?" Fang Xuanling continued to ask, but they didn't realize that a group of old ministers actually asked this young man who had not yet been crowned how to deal with the problem of government affairs.
