After seeing Tang Yi withdraw, Xiao Zan's eyes rolled and said, "Father, how big can this whaling team be?" ”

Xiao Ding glanced at Xiao Zan and said with a smile: "It depends on how much money Tang Yi can get." ”

"And what if you can't get the money?" Xiao Zan asked, "Can't the whaling team be built?" ”

Xiao Ding pondered for a moment and said, "Tang Yi can also be regarded as a Shangshu that I picked up with one hand, so he won't be so incompetent, right?" ”

"Father's vision is naturally not wrong, but time is running out, and it needs to be formed as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night!" Xiao Zan said.

The corners of Xiao Ding's mouth raised slightly, and said, "What do you think of Zan'er?" Let's talk about it. ”

Xiao Zan suddenly came to his senses and said, "Father, it's better to hand over this matter to the son, and the son-in-law will definitely live up to his father's expectations." ”

"Do you have a way to get the money?" Xiao Ding asked.

Xiao Zan didn't answer directly, but said: "You have to think of a way, Tang Shangshu can't think of it alone, plus Erchen, then it is possible to come up with it." ”

"Haha, why is Zan'er suddenly so concerned about this matter?" Xiao Ding asked.

Xiao Zan thought for a while and said: "It is the unshirkable responsibility of the sons and daughters to share the worries of their fathers, and the sons and daughters are very uneasy when they see their fathers troubled by this matter, so they ask Ying to take the initiative to do this." ”

Xiao Ding burst into laughter again and said, "Why have I ever bothered about this matter? ”

"Huh?" Xiao Zan was stunned, and some didn't know how to answer.

Judging from the conversation between the monarch and the minister just now, it seems that Xiao Ding is really not very concerned about forming this whaling team, more like he said it casually during the sacrifice at that time, and it doesn't seem to matter whether it succeeds or not.

Seeing that Xiao Zan didn't know what to say, Xiao Ding stood up, walked to his side, patted Xiao Zan on the shoulder, and said: "You have this heart, I am very relieved, since this is the case, this matter will be handed over to you, I will not ask anymore, everything is agreed between you and Tang Yi." ”

Xiao Zan was very pleasantly surprised, he didn't expect that this matter would be so fully handed over to himself?

Xiao Zan, who reacted, quickly stood up, saluted Xiao Ding, and said, "The sons have thanked their father, and the sons and daughters must do their best to form a whaling team and live up to their father's expectations." ”

"Alright, just do your best." Xiao Ding said, "I see that your mind is no longer above the books, so let's step back first." ”

"Son's resignation!" Xiao Zan exited the study.

As soon as he walked out of the study, Xiao Zan galloped away like a wild horse.

Tang Yi, the secretary of the military department, did not go far at this time, and did not get the desired will from the emperor, he was a little unhappy, and he was slow, thinking about where he could get the money to form a whaling team.

"Tang Shangshu, Tang Shangshu!"

A shout came from behind him, Tang Yi frowned, and turned away.

Tang Yi saw the crown prince Xiao Zan rushing towards him, shouting as he ran, and waving his arms at the same time.

Tang Yi hurriedly stopped, and when Xiao Zan ran in front of him, he hurriedly gave a salute and said, "I don't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is calling his ministers?" ”

Xiao Zan ran out of breath, crossed his hands on his hips, and waited for his breathing to be even, and then said: "There is something important to do, I want to discuss with Tang Shangshu, fortunately, you didn't go far." ”

"I wonder what His Highness is looking for a minister? The minister still has official business, can he talk about it another day? ”

Tang Yi said very tactfully, and the meaning is indeed very clear, that is, the official doesn't want to talk to you, you go away and stay away from the official.

In this Kyoto, everyone knows that the prince is a little unreliable, and he always does things casually, who knows what he is discussing with him.

Moreover, since ancient times, the minister and the prince have stood too close, which is a taboo for officials, and Tang Yi doesn't want to arouse the emperor's suspicion.

"Nothing is as important as ours!" Xiao Zan said categorically.

When Tang Yi heard this, he chuckled in his heart, when did it become us? That's not good.

"Your Highness, what the hell is the matter with you?" Tang Yi asked, he had to figure it out, otherwise he wouldn't be sure.

"Of course it's the whaling team!" Xiao Zan said, "Father has a will, the affairs of this whaling team will be fully responsible for Gu in the future, he will not ask anymore, let the two of us discuss it." ”

"Huh?" Tang Yi's mouth opened wide, as if he had heard something strange, and he didn't believe it.

Xiao Zan looked at Tang Yi's expression, a little unhappy, and said, "Why does Tang Shangshu look like this?" Don't you believe in loneliness? ”

Tang Yi reacted and quickly denied it: "The minister doesn't dare, the minister just didn't think of it." ”

"Well, if you don't believe it, you can ask your father, Lone is not afraid to confront him." Xiao Zan said very confidently.

How could Tang Yi go to the emperor for verification, besides, in the study just now, he also saw Xiao Zan beside him, it must have been after he left, Xiao Zan asked for this errand.

At that time, seeing His Majesty's indifferent face, it was very possible to hand over such an important matter to the crown prince.

Now that the matter has been decided, Tang Yi has no other ideas, so he can't help but cooperate.

But that's fine, if the prince goes to the household department to ask for money, then Yu Youguang can't help but give face, even if it is insufficient, he can give a little bit.

Tang Yi blinked and said, "Your Highness, what should we do next?" ”

Xiao Zan thought for a while and said, "What are Tang Shangshu's plans?" I want to hear your opinion first. ”

Tang Yi wanted to roll his eyes, but he couldn't help it, paused, and said, "Why don't Your Highness go to the household department to take a look, maybe Yu Youguang will give His Highness some face and allocate some money and grain?" ”

"Let Gu go find that Yu Youguang?" Xiao Zan asked rhetorically.

Tang Yi nodded and didn't speak, but those big eyes were full of hope.

But Xiao Zan waved his hand, refused very simply, and said: "That Yu Youguang picked and searched, and he didn't like him, so he didn't go to the household." ”

Tang Yi was disappointed, and said a little depressed: "If not, where can I find money to build a sea ship!" ”

"Shipbuilding is looking for Chen Zheng!" Xiao Zan said assumedly.

Tang Yi was stunned for a moment and said, "Is it Chen Zheng who sacrificed sea whale bones and helped build the sea whale bone temple?" ”

"Yes, that's him!" Xiao Zan nodded.

"Chen Zheng is rich?" Tang Yi asked, he had seen Chen Zheng, no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see that he was rich.

Xiao Zan shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter if Chen Zheng has money or not. The point is that he can build ships for us! ”

"Chen Zheng doesn't want money when building a ship?" Tang Yi still didn't understand.

Xiao Zan looked at no one on the left and right, and whispered to Tang Yi: "Tang Shangshu knows that there is a patrol team in Dongyang County now?" ”

Tang Yi nodded, this time he went out, he also went to Dongyang County to take a look, and it was really a good team of sea ships.

"What does the patrol team have to do with Chen Zheng?" Tang Yi asked.

Xiao Zan snorted lightly and said, "The boat of the patrol team was built by Chen Zheng, and as far as Gu knows, he didn't ask for money from Dongyang County Commander at that time. ”

"Hiss~" Tang Yi couldn't help but gasp.
