Chapter 47: Lack of Money

Chang'an City, the early dynasty passed, the hall room Xuanling Du Ruhui did not leave, Li Shimin asked the waiter to give a seat, and the two told Li Shimin the truth about what happened last night.

Li Shimin was shocked: "Is it really as the two Aiqing said, that Taoist priest used great mana to drive the ghosts and gods, so that the locusts flew into the flames by themselves?" ”

Fang Xuanling said again: "This is the situation last night, but the ministers don't believe in the ghosts and gods, this Taoist priest may have used some unknown methods to make the locusts fight the fire, and the ghost fire is floating everywhere, but we don't know these methods, but if there is really such a method, doesn't it mean that Datang will never be afraid of locust plagues from now on."

Li Shimin understood what the two meant, and said: "You want me to go to Qingyun Temple, I have been there, and the Taoist priest said that he would not help."

Du Ruhui said: "Your Majesty, he is just a Taoist, not an immortal, even if he is an immortal who has no desire in the sky, he also needs incense to worship, life in the world, just a few decades, as long as people always have something to seek, the minister looks at this person, whether it is the talent of water control, or the art of locust control, the minister heard that the recent imperial court salt method is also the credit of this Taoist priest, Your Majesty, this person is a great talent!" ”

Li Shimin pondered silently, this Ye Lin really gave him a headache, he couldn't use such a big material for himself, what would he think about it in the Taoist temple. What a pity.

Fang Xuanling said again: "Your Majesty, if you have this method, it will be another great achievement that can be praised for future generations, and the historians will record that since Zhenguan, the locust plague has been eradicated by you forever, and the family will also shut up, because the will of heaven has helped Your Majesty to exterminate the locust!" ”

Li Shimin got up, yes, knowing people and making good use of them is the way of Mingjun, how can you do it without bothering to get the help of truly talented people? Li Shimin figured it out, the sky is actually very fair, Emperor Yang of Sui is mediocre, so he was replaced by the Tang Dynasty, and he is not mediocre, so God let so many loyal courtiers help him, and it is because of this that he can sit firmly on the throne of the Tang Dynasty.

"Prepare the horse, go to Qingyunguan, the talents of the world should be under my command! If I see talent and don't use it, wouldn't it be as mediocre as Emperor Yang of Sui! ”

Li Shimin got up and said, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui immediately knelt down and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty Shengming!" The world's talents are all in His Majesty's urn! ”

Li Shimin laughed.

Qingyunguan, on the stone steps, Ye Lin leaned on the left, Zi Yi leaned on the right, the warm sun shone on the faces of the two, Ye Lin was drowsy, Zi Yi said: "Dao Chief, the concubine wants to rob!" ”

"Go, if you want to fight, you can fight, the hall master has strong martial arts, what are you hesitating to rob, do it neatly, and the officers and soldiers can't do anything about the hall master"

Ye Lin half-opened his eyes and said perfunctorily, Zi Yi turned her head, picked up a small pebble, and bounced it on Ye Lin's ankle. Ye Lin was in pain. He opened his eyes and said, "Is there any way to do it?" What you fancy is the first pharmacy in Chang'an City, the treasure of Baozhitang's town store. People said that three thousand taels of silver would be sold to you."

Zi Yi raised her hand and grabbed Ye Lin's ankle, and said coldly: "You be quiet, if you let my sister know, the concubine must break her leg to the Dao Chief!" ”

Ye Lin gritted his teeth and shut up, Zi Yi let go of his hand, and said with a smile: "The boundless mana of the Dao Leader can't make the injury heal faster, it's better to help the Dao Leader with a concubine, as long as the Dao Chief endures it, it's fine."

Ye Zi hurriedly shook his head and said, "Small injury, it won't take long to apply some medicine, so you don't need to trouble the hall master."

Zi Yi chuckled, his palm moved, and Ye Lin screamed: "You!! ”

Zi Yi looked at Ye Lin's distorted expression and said: "A big man, with this expression, the long pain is better than the short pain, the concubine has no way to look at the Taoist, this is also helping the Taoist."

Ye Lin gritted his teeth and raised his hand to point at Ziyi, but he couldn't say anything.
