Chapter 881: A Few People Calculate

Li Yuan's two suggestions to Li Shimin are all considered, one is to settle the situation in the end, and the other is to pay less food to push the displaced people to Youzhou, which has both pros and cons.

The advantage is that these homeless people can consume Youzhou's strength, and taking advantage of this wave of homeless people, they can arrange some "own people", and there are many things that can be done.

Since the people among the displaced people can make conditions to him in an organized manner, what will happen if the people he arranged for him to go to Youzhou for this reason, will Li De be as embarrassed as him.

Thinking of this, he wanted to know what Li De would do and how difficult it was.

And leading the homeless people to Youzhou is not necessarily the face of the emperor who lost his face, don't forget that Princess Pingyang married Li De.

Nominally, Li Yuan is Li De's father-in-law, and from this aspect, guiding his imperial reputation will not only not be lost, but may increase because of this.

As for whether Li De will be embarrassed, he will not care.

I am very satisfied with Li Shimin's idea, it is absolutely amazing.

Li Yuan thought a lot but it only took a short time, and Li Shimin didn't know how his father would choose.

In his opinion, if he is allowed to choose, he will definitely choose to be beneficial to himself.

"Shimin, which one will you choose?" Li Yuan said suddenly.

Li Shimin slandered in his heart, he didn't believe that his father didn't know the key, and he made it clear that he wanted him to take the blame.

It's really not good for him not to carry this pot, so he has to choose.

"It is safest to appease the displaced people." Li Shimin said against his will.

Let him say that then he has made a choice, anyway, in the end, it is his father who makes the decision.

"Pacify, but Chang'an's reserve food is limited, if it is to appease the fear, you need to use the grain and grass of the military department, if there is an enemy attack, I am afraid that there will be a shortage of food, it seems that it is not a good choice."

Li Shimin knew that this would be the case.

"What my father said is that it was the sons and daughters who didn't think it through."

Although Li Shimin knew the result, he had to compliment.

"If I choose to lead the displaced people to Youzhou, this law seems to have an impact on my reputation, and if I do, will it make Pingyang embarrassed?"

Li Yuan said that this was really asking.

Li Shimin knew that what he needed to solve was this reputation problem, otherwise he would not have gone around the circle.

"The governor of Youzhou is the son-in-law of the Li family, if he sends a letter in advance to ask, presumably the kind-hearted sister will not refuse, but let them take the initiative to accept it, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing."

Li Yuan continued to think.

"Will they take the initiative?" Li Yuan said.

"Youzhou doesn't always want the people of the world to pass, presumably this time is no exception, not only that, as long as the matter is spread, the food needed by the displaced people from Chang'an can also be paid to Youzhou."

Li Yuan's eyes lit up, if he could not produce his own food, he would be able to earn fame in vain.

He had already made a decision in his heart, and asking Li Shimin was to determine the pros and cons again, and his second son had always been smart thinking that he might be able to surprise him.

This time it was a real surprise.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you now." Li Yuan said.

"Son's command." Li Shimin said immediately.

Li Yuan was very happy, Li Shimin was happy on his face, and he was very unhappy in his heart, and the next thing was obviously that he had a calculating Li De's intentions, so he became a conspirator in Li De's heart.

He had a plan in his heart to oppose Youzhou, but now this situation makes it very uneconomical for him to do so.

The thing is very simple, he is now equivalent to a person without a foundation, without strength, and will not be looked at.

If Li De really wants to target him, I believe there will be many ways.

If it was him, as long as he talked to Li Jiancheng, it would make him pay a great price, after all, he was now the crown prince when he came to Jiancheng, and the Li family's country would not fall on his head in the future.

Among the many forces now, although Youzhou is an enemy, it must not be hostile now.

Even if the soldiers and horses of Youzhou once prevented them from occupying Chang'an.

But he had to do his father's order again, and then it was time to use his wisdom, and if he didn't handle it well, he would be resentful.

So he found the eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui to get together to discuss things.

"King Qin, I'm afraid this matter is inappropriate." Fang Xuanling said.

"If Xuan Ling has any ideas, you might as well say it directly." Li Shimin said.

"Youzhou has always gathered people, and it is likely to make wedding dresses for others." Fang Xuanling said.

His idea is very direct, tens of thousands of displaced people may be a trouble for the current Chang'an and Luoyang, but for Youzhou, I am afraid it is to comply with their wishes.

Du Ruhui and others also agree with this, after all, the strength of Youzhou is there, not to mention tens of thousands of displaced people, even hundreds of thousands of people are not a problem.

What's more, I recently heard that a new city has been planned north of Youzhou, and sending people over is equivalent to sending them labor.

Li Shimin thought about this matter, so from the beginning, their plan was not so pure, and let the displaced people pass with trouble.

"Xuan Ling is right." Li Shimin knew in his heart that at this time, he knew that all of them were people who understood, so he didn't hide it, and directly told them about their plan.

After hearing this, several people didn't react much, and they were more concerned about how to complete this task.

"It's naturally good to arrange people to muddy the waters, but we must stir things up before the displaced people enter Youzhou, otherwise it will be easy for the other party to know our intentions." Fang Xuanling said.

After careful consideration, Li Shimin decided that this was really the case, and besides, they wanted to find out the situation of those troublemakers on the way, and he wanted to know who was secretly doing things.

He didn't know what Fang Xuan and the others were thinking in their hearts, and even they thought in their hearts that the person behind the trouble among the displaced people might be their King Qin.

It seems that there is no connection between the two, but in fact, it is possible because there is no connection.

The prerequisite for doing things is naturally that people cannot discover it, and it is absolutely possible to do it with Li Shimin's ingenuity.

They could only suspect in their hearts, but no one bothered to investigate.

Then Li Shimin raised the most difficult problem to solve, that is, how to voluntarily solve the food problem of the displaced people to Li De.

He said it well in front of Li Yuan, but in fact, it would not be so easy to put it into practice.

Writing a letter to his sister is just a means, and with his understanding of Li Xiuning, everything is decided on Li De, his brother-in-law.

Li Shimin will not do things that he is not sure of, so there must not be only one way.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui knew that this matter was the most difficult, and they were all trying to find a way.

The eldest grandson Wuji has no good impression of Li De in Youzhou, who let his family invest all of them and be confiscated, there is nothing left.

The loss of Penglai City is largely due to his pot, if he is not the eldest grandson Wuji, he will definitely not survive.

Even the face of the eldest grandson's family is not omnipotent.
