Zhao Qing was scolded and retreated, and suddenly stumbled under his feet, sat on the ground, quickly got up, knelt down in front of Li Shimin, and shouted in his mouth: "Your Majesty, this is all slander, all slander, the minister is wronged!" ”

Li Shimin didn't listen to his defense, and said to the Gao Gong beside him: "Take his jade pendant and show it to me!" ”

Gao Gonggong answered the promise and walked to Zhao Qing, Zhao Qing wanted to block, but Gao Gonggong pushed him away and took his jade pendant in his hand. Li Mu looked at it really on the side, it turned out that this Gao Gonggong had kung fu.

Gonggong Gao presented the jade pendant, Li Shimin took it in his hand and fiddled with it, put it aside, and said: "Zhao Qing, I originally thought that you were an honest and self-disciplined imperial history, although when you played it right, you often spoke a little fiercely, but you are a good official. But I didn't expect you to be a fame-seeker! This jade pendant, how do you explain it! ”

"Minister...... This is the treasure of the minister's family! ”

Li Mu sneered and said, "Zhao Zhongcheng just said that he was born in a cold family, which family's cold family can have such treasures, and people with such treasures can also be called cold doors?" ”

"I, I'm ......" Zhao Qingkou didn't choose to speak, and said: "Yes, the marriage of the minister's wife!" ”

"Zhao Qing, you are presumptuous!" Li Shimin pointed at Zhao Qing and scolded bitterly: "In front of me, you dare to change your words, which shows that you don't have a word of truth in your mouth!" Are you also worthy of being a royal historian? I'm really blind and have raised you shit! Someone comes, drag him down for me, take him for thirty battles, dismiss the official and exile him to Lingnan, and never return to the Central Plains! ”

After speaking, Li Shimin threw Zhao Qing's 'heirloom' to the ground, and with a crisp sound, it fell into eight petals. When Zhao Qing saw it, he fainted directly, and he didn't know if he fainted in distress or was stimulated by the dismissal.

Zhao Yushi was dragged away, and there was silence on the main hall. Li Muyu fought four people, and the more he fought, the more courageous he became, which made the hundred officials look at him with admiration. The people who didn't put him in their eyes before no longer dare to despise him after this incident.

Li Shimin was obviously very angry, Zhao Qing was dragged away for a while, and he was still angry. The hundred officials didn't dare to speak out, but it was the eldest grandson Wuji who opened his mouth to resolve this embarrassing scene.

The eldest grandson Wuji stood up and said, "Your Majesty, since the matter of impeachment has been dealt with. It's time to get down to business, don't you have something to announce? ”

"Yes!" Hearing this, Li Shimin remembered today's business, stopped Li Mu, who was about to stand at the end of the Wenchen team, and said, "Aiqing, slow down, what I want to announce today is related to you." ”

"Huh?" Li Mu was stunned, not only him, but the other ministers were also stunned, he had just dealt with four things related to the Zhulu Hou, and it was still related to him?

Li Shimin called Li Mu over and said, "The Hou of Zhulu is loyal to the people and loves the people, but it is not said in words. Even during the period of his confinement, the Marquis of Zhulu still cared about the people and invented a new type of plough. Compared with the plough used now, the soil is broken faster and more efficient, which greatly saves animal power. Adult men can pull, which is great news for states and counties that lack animal power. After testing, it can be judged that the efficiency can be more than twice as high as that of the plough being used. ”

"The Marquis of Zhulu has dedicated this plough to me and named it 'Zhenguan Plow'. I discussed with Fang Xiang and others that we will set up a 'agricultural tool supervisor' in the Ministry of Industry to manufacture a large number of 'Zhenguan plows', and strive to use Zhenguan plows in all counties and counties of Datang when we start spring planting next year! ”

As soon as these words came out, it was tantamount to a bomb exploding, which instantly ignited the court.

An old minister came out and asked, "Your Majesty, can this Zhenguan plow really increase the efficiency by two times?" ”

Li Shimin glanced at this person, it was Wang Qi in the waiter, and said: "I didn't believe it at first, but I tried it myself, and it was true. ”

Wang Jue immediately said: "The minister thinks that this thing has a great contribution to Sheji, and his majesty should reward him for his genius." ”

"Commendation?" Li Shimin said: "I also want to reward him, but he is young and has already been named a county marquis, I am afraid it will be ...... to reward him again."

Wang Qi said: "Your Majesty, you have a good taste, and the rewards and punishments are clear. If the Hou of Zhulu does not reward such a meritorious service, I am afraid of provoking criticism, and the minister will admonish him again, and ask His Majesty to reward the Hou of Zhulu. ”

The hundred officials looked at each other, this Wang Qi was born in the Taiyuan Wang family, and what Li Mu said just now did not give the gate valve family any face, but he came out to ask for credit for Li Mu, why is this? And some people have already seen some ways, and secretly scolded Wang Qi in their hearts that he is really an old man, and he can think of one step ahead of everything.

As a servant, Wang Qi is the governor of Menxia Province. The 'three provinces' in the three-province six-ministry system refer to Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, Shangshu Province, and the governors of the three provinces, which are equivalent to the prime ministers. What he said had to be carefully considered by Li Shimin.

Li Shimin pondered for a while, looked at the eldest grandson Wuji, and said, "What does the auxiliary machine think Wang Qing said?" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji, as the secretary of the ministry, was in charge of this matter, and thought for a while and said: "The minister seconded the proposal, Li Mu's contribution is not trivial, and it must be rewarded." The minister thought that Duan Lun, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, could be reappointed as the doctor of Guanglu, Li Daliang, the squire of the Ministry of Industry, and Li Mu, the secretary of the Ministry of Labor, and Li Mu of the Ministry of Promotion, as the waiter of the Ministry of Industry, so that the arrangement could be safe. ”

Duan Lun was afraid of death, and he had already left Chang'an for several years by taking advantage of the reason of stepping on the mountains and rivers. His Ministry of Industry is basically a shelf, and what Li Daliang usually does is the Ministry of Industry. It is most appropriate to promote Duan Lun from the third-grade Shangshu to the second-grade Guanglu doctor, who has a rank but no real power. Li Daliang can also use this to correct his name, and Li Mu can also be promoted, the best of both worlds. Li Shimin thought about it, nodded and said, "Very good, let's do it." ”

"The minister has another word!" Seeing that the emperor listened to his advice, Wang Jue hurriedly said another sentence.

Li Shimin frowned and said, "Wang Qing, I have already listened to your advice and rewarded Li Mu, what else do you want to say?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the arrangement of the 'agricultural tool supervisor' is inappropriate. Your Majesty, if the Zhenguan plough is only made in the agricultural equipment supervision, even if all the craftsmen who invest in Chang'an come to make the Zhenguan plow, I am afraid it will be difficult to supply the needs of the people of the world before the spring of next year. ”

Li Shimin was right when he thought about it, so he asked, "Then what does Yiqing think should be done?" ”

Wang Jue hurriedly said: "The minister thinks that it is better to let the counties and counties select some skilled craftsmen to come to Chang'an to learn the production method of Zhenguan plow." Let them go back and teach local craftsmen to make it locally, which can greatly improve the efficiency of making Zhenguan plows, and before the spring of next year, the people of the world will be able to use Zhenguan plows. ”

Hearing this, everyone understood Wang Jue's calculations. If Zhenguan plough only came from the Ministry of Industry, then the people of the world would only be grateful to Li Mu and the emperor. But if people from various states and counties come to Chang'an to learn the production method of Zhenguan plows, and then go back to teach local craftsmen to make them. This kindness may be recorded on whom, out of Chang'an to the place, the influence of the gate valve family is greater than that of the imperial court. Take the Taiyuan Wang clan as an example, after the craftsmen they sent back from their studies, they will say locally that this new type of plough is the invention of Li Mu, the waiter of the Ministry of Industry, and the emperor will let the emperor promote the world?

Not necessarily.
