"Father, the son is willing to use 3 percent of the salt produced in Luzhou to exchange 3 percent of the iron coal produced in the underground of Hedong, and the 7 percent of the iron coal will be attributed to the Iron Division of the Ministry of Industry. The 3 percent of iron coal left by Erchen is also for the development of Hedong, not the private property of Erchen, and all consumption is recorded in the register and can be checked by the Ministry of Industry at any time. Yang Er saw that his father was still hesitating, so he took out the high-sounding plan in his heart, and when he left Luzhou, he had carefully calculated with Er Pei that monopolizing the salt industry of Dasui was not a long-term solution, and it was easy to fall into the truth, but it would damage the reputation of the Jin Palace, so it was better to take the initiative to give 3 percent to the imperial court, in order to block the mouth of others, and then increase the output to make up for the loss of 3 percent, and not hurt a single bit. If you can exchange it for 3 percent of the amount of iron coal, it is very cost-effective, and the output of iron coal is controlled in your own hands, and who can tell how much of your own 3 percent.

As soon as these words came out, I saw that all the courtiers in the palace nodded their heads to show their approval of what King Jin said. Yang Su, Guo Yan and others were also noncommittal, after all, 3% of the salt tax was state-owned, which would greatly ease the use of all parties in the internal government, and officials at all levels in the central and central provinces of the DPRK were all happy. The ministers of Menxia Province were still pondering, discussing in a whisper, and from time to time they saw someone nodding yes, they were thinking that they could do this, and they didn't spend a penny and took the lion's share, so they didn't suffer any losses. Besides, as the king of Jin, if he wrote to his father, the emperor and Laozi, and asked the Ministry of Industry for iron and stone, would it be difficult not to pay? You have to take a long-distance rickshaw horse, it's not cost-effective, it's better to leave it directly to him 3 achievements is.

"Do you have any objections to what King Jin said? Gao Qing? Dr. Guo? Emperor Wen saw that everyone only cared about their own private discussions, and no one stood up to speak. So he named Prime Minister Gao Xi and Guanglu Doctor Guo Yan and asked them to say what they thought. The two of them represented the opinions of Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province, and if either of them disagreed, Emperor Wen had to reject the idea of his second son.

"Returning to the emperor, the old minister thinks that what His Royal Highness the King of Jin said is feasible. Hedong County is not far from Chang'an, if it can be developed under the rule of King Jin, Yu Jingshi, Sili, Zhongzhou and other places will benefit. "Prime Minister Gao Xi was not originally a person from the two parties, but he still favored the side of King Jin on the matter. Emperor Wen also nodded in approval after hearing this.

"Back to the emperor, Weichen, E-Weichen has no opinion, but His Royal Highness the King of Jin can propose a trial in Hedong. If it is unfavorable to our dynasty, it is appropriate to ask the emperor to withdraw the authority of the king of Jin at that time. Seeing that there was almost no opposition from the Manchu Dynasty, Gao Xi also agreed first, and he couldn't go against everyone's will, especially the emperor had expressed his approval of King Jin. So he followed the voice and said his own suggestion. But he didn't say death, he kept a counterattack, and only said "try".

"Okay, the emperor's father approved your idea, and allowed you to keep 3% of the amount of Hedong iron coal, and the rest will be transported back to the inner house. Also, the 30% salt tax that the emperor said should be counted from the first two months. Hehe! "Emperor Wen is in a happy mood, and he has long been beating his son with the idea of salt, but it is difficult to say it because of his face. I didn't expect my son to take the initiative to say it today, so wouldn't he be happy to make up for it for the last two months. Seeing that the emperor laughed, all the civil and military officers also laughed.

Yang Er had to shake his head helplessly and smile wryly.

After the matter was discussed, several ministers came to the book. But it's all trivial, Yang Er's mind is no longer above the court, and he is now looking for someone in the military general train opposite.

The court meeting in the political hall was finally over, and the civil and military ministers walked out of the court hall in groups with laughter and laughter, and then dispersed.

Yang Er followed a group of generals and hurriedly chased a few steps, and shouted loudly: "Lord Wu, the king of loyalty and filial piety, please stay." ”

The military general turned his head from the middle old man, and when he saw that His Royal Highness the King of Jin was chasing after him, he hurriedly stopped and clasped his fists and said, "Hehe! Your Royal Highness's wish has come true in the court today, and you have got what you want, if you don't hurry back to the house to celebrate, what's the matter with calling the old man? This white-haired veteran is full of energy and spirit, and he is none other than Wu Jianzhang, one of the founding fathers of the Great Sui Dynasty.

"Old General Wu, this king is polite, this place is not a place to speak, can you move to your mansion and tell me the details." Yang Er has great respect for this highly meritorious and upright veteran.

"Huh! In this case, the old man invited His Royal Highness to sit in the mansion. Wu Jianzhang is still very willing to make friends with this young and promising prince, in his eyes, this second prince is too much better than the crown prince Yang Yong.

The two cars gathered together and drove slowly towards the palace of Zhongxiao. As soon as I arrived at the gate of the house, I saw a young man going out to greet him. Wu Jianzhang hurriedly led this person to Yang Er and introduced: "Your Highness, this is Wu Yunzhao, the son of the old man. has not yet come out, and will appear when the martial arts are opened next year. The old man personally taught the family heirloom Wu family marksmanship, even if he is not the champion, he must have a share of the top three. Wu Jianzhang stroked the fluttering white beard under his chin and said proudly. Yang Er looked at Wu Yunzhao and said in his heart that this is the 5th good man of the Sui Dynasty! Sure enough, his appearance is not bad, he is dressed in a white robe, he is athletic, and he seems to be 5 or 6 years older than himself, Yang Er nodded uncontrollably. That Wu Yun summoned His Royal Highness the King of Jin to arrive, and he was sincerely afraid and hurriedly bowed to the king.

Yang Er also praised with a smile: "Old General Wu is a hero, how can the tiger father have a dog, and Yun Zhao will be a tiger general in the future!" ”

Everyone entered the Wu Mansion with a smile. When he came to the front hall to sit down with the guest and the host, there were meritorious veterans here, and Yang Er insisted on not sitting in the main seat to show respect. Wu Jianzhang was quite satisfied with this, and even felt that His Royal Highness King Jin had excellent character and had already shown the appearance of an emperor. The prince and the king of Jin are vying for the prince, and the whole dynasty knows that this time there must be a intention to win over the government.

"Your Highness, I don't know what the old man is talking to in a hurry, can you tell the truth? lest the old man be suspicious. Wu Jianzhang said as he motioned for Yang Er to drink tea first, and then he also picked up the tea bowl and blew the tea foam, and took a sip.

"Old general, this king has come here this time to inquire about one person. I don't know if the old general can be recognized? Yang Er put down the tea bowl, said unhurriedly, and glanced at Wu Yunzhao who was standing behind Wu Jianzhang.

"Please ask Your Highness to inquire who it is, if the old man knows, he will tell him clearly, and if he doesn't know, don't blame him." Wu Jianzhang replied politely, waiting for Yang Er to say the name of that person.

"This person's name is Wu Tianxi, and he is the head of Tuoluo Village at the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain, I don't know if the old general knows?"

Yang Er's voice didn't fall, only to hear Wu Yunzhao cry out, "Huh? Why is His Highness looking for him? After speaking, he was speechless, and hurriedly looked at his father, Wu Jianzhang also turned his head and glared at him.

"Your Royal Highness, that Wu Tianxi is the son of my brother, who loves to fight and brawl since he was a child, and fled to the rivers and lakes after a death lawsuit. The old man, as the head of the Wu family, had already expelled this rebel son from the family. I don't know that he actually fell into the grass in Tuoluo Village in Taihang Mountain, His Royal Highness asked what this rebel son of the Wu family meant? After Wu Jianzhang finished speaking, his face was full of suspicion.

I saw Wu Yunzhao behind him looking resentful and unhappy. This Wu Tianxi is the best with him at home, he grew up practicing martial arts together, he is of the same age, and he listens to him the most among the Wu family brothers, and he also has his share in Wu Yunzhao in that fight, but his younger brother Tianxi is the eldest son of the Wu family, a civil and military all-rounder, and shoulders the life of the prosperity of the Wu family, so he shouldered all the blame and fled for his life. Now when I see my father say this about my brother Tianxi, I suddenly don't like it.

"The old general doesn't know that your nephew Wu Tianxi has taken one of the king's men as hostages, and this person is very important to me. But I heard that Wu Tianxi was brave and invincible with a red-blooded phoenix wing, and he was invincible all over Hebei, and the generals under the king were lowly and did not dare to come to the door to ask for someone, so I wanted to ask the old general to write a letter to teach him to return my man, and he had no other intention. Yang Er slowly said his thoughts, trying not to stimulate the bloody Wu Yunzhao, Wu Yunzhao's expression made him already see the clues.

"Father, this matter is very easy, you don't need to write any letters to the past, just wait for the child to go and teach Tianxi to release the person." Wu Yunzhao said impatiently. In fact, the two brothers had already exchanged letters in secret, if it weren't for his father's care, Yun Zhao would have gone to Natuoluo Village to see his brothers.

"That's it! Yun Zhao will call you to meet the rebel son on behalf of your father! If you don't obey, just take him down. Wu Jianzhang saw Wu Yunzhao say that, it was no longer easy to hide anything, so he had to agree casually.

Yang Er laughed secretly in his heart, the father and son of the Wu family didn't know that they had entered this king's set!

Yang Su, Yue Wangfu.

After returning home, Yang Su finally felt the taste. Where is Yang Guang, the king of Jin, for growing grain and making iron, and where is it for the war ahead! said a big set of high-sounding, its meaning is nothing more than to get the emperor's favor, get the praise of the imperial court's military generals and ministers, raise his reputation, highlight the unbearable crown prince of the dynasty, so as to pave the way for himself to seize the position of prince in the future. This King of Jin is not very old, and the city is so deep! Even the old man is ashamed of himself! Everything discussed in the court was prepared, and I was thoughtful, so I was caught off guard, and there was no countermeasure for a while, which made the king of Jin so unhappy in the court! It's really infuriating! With a snap, Yang Su slapped the table and shouted:

"Butler, why hasn't the person who this king asked you to invite come over yet?" Yang Su scolded the old housekeeper in the house and vented his grievances.

Before the housekeeper could reply, he only heard a voice: "Lord, I'm too late, I'm tired of waiting for the prince for a long time!" After finishing speaking, a person came in the first row, Yang Su saw that it was Su Wei, the servant of the servant, and followed up one after another: Yang Da, Han Hong, Yu Wenkai, Guo Yan, Tang Lingchen, and Ji Wei, the prince's close attendant in the East Palace, and other princelings and other backbones. Yang Su and his son Xuangan sat down in the middle hall with everyone.

"Today is the prince's business, please come to the palace to discuss, and I hope that all colleagues will express their opinions, and in the future, the prince will be promoted to the emperor, and I should double your benefits." Yang Su and the second position stood up and bowed to everyone.

"If the prince has something to say, please say it clearly, for the sake of the prince, we will all obey the orders." Everyone hurriedly bowed their hands in return.

"Yang Ye is what the king of Jin played for today's court?" Ji Wei, the prince's close attendant and eunuch Ji Wei, who was sitting on the main seat and representing the crown prince Yang Yong, asked in a sharp voice.

"Just as Grandpa Ji said! Since Yang Guang, the king of the Jin Dynasty, came out of Chang'an a few months ago, he has changed his appearance as a different person, changing his mediocrity and inaction in the past, and becoming shrewd. Today, the emperor of the court gave the land east of the river to the king of Jin, and it should be the third thing, the king thought that the prince was extremely unfavorable, and let it develop in the future! What do you think? Yang Su said in a heavy and melancholy tone.

Several people present nodded silently, and then the eunuch Ji Wei said: "Your Excellency, you don't need to worry too much, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will end the penalty period in 3 days at the latest, and then there will be a prince sitting in the court, how can there be a place for the King of Jin to speak." "Hearing that the crown prince was about to be lifted from punishment, everyone seemed to have received an amnesty, and they all showed a relaxed color, sweeping away the darkness at the beginning.

"It's good, but the King of Jin has already benefited a lot, and all the civil and military forces in the court have praised the King of Jin. The king of Jin will hold hands with the right servant to shoot the loyal and filial piety king Wu Jianzhang and return to the loyal and filial piety palace, that Wu Jianzhang has always been at odds with us, but he is not biased towards the king of Jin, and takes the golden mean. But today, when I saw it, I obviously showed favor to the King of Jin, and the King of Jin had this old thief to help, and his wings were full! Han Hong, the right prime minister sitting at the head of Yang Su, said worriedly. He knew that Wu Jianzhang was the founding father, and he had a lot of weight in the court, and Emperor Wen also attached great importance to Wu Jianzhang, one of the nine founding elders.

"Han Gongxiu raised the anger of others to extinguish his own prestige, then Wu Jianzhang is old, and he is brave and unscrupulous, what is there to fear! However, after the king of Jin himself came out of Chang'an, if the fish returned to the sea, he was bound to dominate one side, and he was on the side of the Beijing Division, let it become bigger, like a tiger as a companion, and we could not control it. His division in Beijing has changed, and the division of King Qin has not yet arrived in Beijing, and we will have to face the King of Jin and the Tiger Division. It's tasteless for sleeping! Guanglu Doctor Guo Yan couldn't help but sigh.

"What Lord Guo said is very true, this is exactly the reason why this king invited you to come here, so I can discuss a plan to solve our crisis!" Yang Su said with emotion. Everyone and Ji Wei nodded yes, all of them were uneasy, but they didn't have a word to come up with, they just kept sighing.

"Eh----, I have a plan to solve this crisis!" One of the people in the audience suddenly shouted, and everyone was shocked.

This person's words stirred up the sudden change in the situation in Beijing, and the battle for the heir became more intense.
