"Weichen Gao Shilian see the emperor!"

"Wechen Murton, see the emperor!"

Gao Shilian and Merton saluted almost at the same time, Gao Shilian adopted the etiquette of civil officials, and Merton was the courtesy of military generals.

"Gao Aiqing has worked hard!" Li Shimin said with a smile on his face at Gao Shilian.

Gao Shilian is not only an important minister in the court, but also the maternal uncle of the eldest grandson empress, and the highest-ranking official in the Guanlong family.

"Your Majesty has won the award, there is a brick road, and the four-wheeled carriage is as stable as the ground, this is the easiest time for the old man to take up his post!" Coats said. This time he was in Lanzhou, except for the two long journeys to Tuyuhun, the rest had the convenience of a four-wheeled carriage, which was extremely easy.

Li Shimin nodded, this time the westward expedition, the brick road from Chang'an to Lanzhou can be said to be a great contribution and played a pivotal role, which made the imperial court pay more and more attention to the brick road.

"Gao Aiqing came back at the right time, it happened that Gao Aiqing played the method of work for relief, it is really a clever plan, now the flood in Shandong has receded, under the concerted efforts of millions of victims, in a short period of time, three hundred miles of brick roads have been repaired, and seven hundred miles of brick road roadbed has been laid!" Li Shimin said excitedly.

In the past, food was distributed to the victims, which often led to corruption and injustice, and the victims had nothing to do, and it was easy to get into trouble.

The wonder of cash-for-work is that the food distributed by the imperial court is not free, but is exchanged for food by work, that is, a large amount of infrastructure has been built for the imperial court, and the disaster victims have been cleverly controlled.

Under a major flood, millions of victims not only survived safely, but also built a large number of brick roads for the imperial court, and the remaining 700 miles of brick roads are in full swing to make red bricks, once the red bricks are in place, the brick road can be formed.

Moreover, compared with the cost of the brick road in the Luoyang section of Chang'an, the cost of the brick road built by the victims is less than a quarter, which not only resettles the victims, but also allows so many brick roads to be built for the imperial court, how can Li Shimin not be satisfied.

"Cash-for-work is really a good policy for the benefit of the country and the people, if this is not set as a disaster relief policy for the imperial court, it is a use case!" Gao Shilian bowed.

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Quasi!" ”

Gao Shilian looked at Merton, who was still holding his head high on the side, and said in his heart: "Actually, this party is not what Weichen thinks, but the idea of ink sacrifice wine, and Weichen really doesn't dare to take credit." ”

"Mo Jiazi!"

Suddenly, the eyes of the hundred officials stared at Merton's body, and after Morton got up at this moment, he kept a high-spirited posture, his body was straight, which made people can't help but shine, especially Li Jing, since Merton's first step into the Taiji Palace, his eyes have never left Merton's body, and the more he looks, the brighter his eyes become.

Li Shimin naturally knew that this was a joint signature of Modon and Gao Shilian, but he wanted to dry Murton, and when he saw Gao Shilian say this, Li Shimin had to look at Morton and said: "The ink sacrifice wine is hard!" ”

This was originally Li Shimin's polite words, but he didn't expect that Merton would straighten up and suddenly shouted: "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen is not hard!" ”

Merton's voice seemed to be shouted almost with all his voices, and the entire court was stunned.

Taiji Hall is an important place in the imperial court, and usually the speeches of hundreds of officials are harmonious and harmonious, even if it is a confrontation in the court, it is also a reasonable and well-founded argument, where have you heard this kind of hoarse reply.

Li Shimin was also taken aback, and couldn't help but look at Merton angrily and funny: "When others ask for credit, they are all polite, but you are simply neat." ”

Merton raised his neck and said sonorously: "Back to Your Majesty, the last general is a soldier of the Tang Dynasty at this moment, as a soldier, I can only answer yes or no!" There is no polite power. ”

Merton's words suddenly attracted the attention of a group of military generals, Li Jing's eyes flashed, and he couldn't help but be touched, Merton's words can be said to have exhausted the true meaning of the military, in the army, there is no polite power, and the military order is a success, or death in battle.

Li Shimin couldn't help but be touched, and Merton entered the Taiji Hall from the beginning, from the pace, to the standing posture, to the speech, directly showing the temperament of a soldier to the fullest.

Li Shimin also started in the army, so he is naturally familiar with military affairs, especially when Morton said that soldiers can only answer yes and no, which is a hundred times more useful than the flattery of the ministers!

And Merton did sit down to what he just said, accurately calculated the Tiangu Eclipse Sun and defeated Tuyuhun, used arithmetic, accurately confirmed the location of the Tuyuhun tribes, broke into the desert, pursued Fu Yun for thousands of miles, and finally solved the financial crisis of the Tang Dynasty with his own strength, all these behaviors, Merton answered yes, and all of them were done.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin's dissatisfaction with Merton in his heart suddenly dropped by three points.

Even the civil officials couldn't help but secretly praise Merton's beautiful play, but it was impossible for the civil officials to let Merton go so easily.

"Your Majesty, Weichen please play Modon to encourage the officers and soldiers in the army to cut their hair and shake the country's foundation, it is for disloyalty, forgetting their ancestors, destroying the thousand-year-old etiquette of my Tang Dynasty, it is for unfilial piety, such disloyal and unfilial people, please Your Majesty will punish them severely!" Kong Yingda said with a sad face.

"Please Your Majesty severely punish this first evil, and use the righteous program to eliminate the unhealthy tendencies in the world." Soon, all the civil officials played one after another.

Except for a few important ministers in the DPRK and China, almost half of the ministers complained in unison against Merton.

Even Li Shimin couldn't help but gasp at this scene, the strength of so many civil officials gathered together, even if he had to be cautious.

However, Merton's face did not change, and he bowed to Li Shimin and said, "Weichen, please defend yourself." ”

Li Shimin's face was solemn, and he said solemnly: "Quasi! ”

Merton got the order, and suddenly his body stood upright! With the left heel as the axis, the left heel and the front of the right foot are pressed at the same time, twisting 90 degrees, and the feet are quickly brought together.

In the process of turning, the legs are straight, and the upper body maintains a straight posture, such a novel action not only makes the general's eyes shine, but even Li Shimin can't help but applaud it, I have to say that Merton's set of actions is simply too handsome.

At this moment, the old fox-like Gao Shilian had already quietly retreated to the forefront of a civil official, and the entire court suddenly formed a scene where Merton was alone facing a group of civil officials.

At this moment, Merton was like a small soldier who generously went to death, single-handedly rushing to the enemy position of thousands of troops, and suddenly a tragic atmosphere permeated the court.
