Chapter 789: The Envoy of Nanzhao (11)
"Qing'er, what are you doing in Chang'an? Why don't you live in a guest house specially built for your envoys? ”
Li Yu didn't know much about Shun Huaqing and his party, after all, the alliance was currently only known to a very small number of people.
Li Yu is just a prince who has just established a government office, and he can't participate in government affairs, so naturally he has no way of knowing the major affairs of the imperial court, and it is a very confidential thing.
"I don't know much, and my father didn't tell me, but we came to the Tang Dynasty by the will of my pilgrimage." Shun Huaqing still knew the proportions and did not fully confide in.
"Uh-oh." Seeing that the other party didn't tell too much about his intentions, Li Yu didn't continue to hold on to this matter, "If you have difficulties, you can find me, as long as it's not too difficult, I can still help you." ”
"Really?" Shun Huaqing didn't believe it, "I don't even know what your family does now." ”
"Just as you are a child of the Nanzhao clan, I am also a member of the Tang Dynasty, and there are also elders who are officials in the imperial court." Li Yu said with a smile.
He really didn't lie, he was indeed a clan, but his status in the Tang Dynasty was higher than that of Shun Huaqing in Nanzhao.
One is the third prince of the Tang Emperor, and the other is the county lord of the Nanzhao royal family.
And the elder who is an official in Li Yu's mouth can also be said to be Li Ye, but this position is a bit high.
"No wonder."
Hearing that the other party was also a disciple of the Tang Dynasty, Shun Huaqing didn't know what was going on, and she was actually happy in her heart.
It's all clans.,It seems to be a good match.。。。
Thinking of this, Shun Huaqing's face involuntarily turned red again.
In the following days, Long Teng went to Quy Nhon Tsau several times, but most of them were turned away because Quy Nhon Shao was busy receiving other guests.
finally met once, but the two broke up unhappily.
Since Jin Yiwei has not yet verified Long Teng's identity, Quy Ren Shao will not be able to conduct substantive negotiations with Long Teng, nor can he let Long Teng go to meet the Holy Lord, so naturally there will be no result.
This made Long Teng have a deep sense of frustration, thinking of the things that his saint handed over to him, but he couldn't do it, and he always felt that he didn't have the face to go back to see the saint.
Shun Huaqing also noticed her father's low mood, and finally in a meeting, she couldn't help but tell Li Yu about it.
Hearing that Nan Zhao had come to form a secret alliance, Li Yu was also surprised.
He didn't know how to do this kind of thing, and finally at the suggestion of Changshi, he went to find King Li You.
Li You is the appointed prince, and he is already in contact with the affairs of the imperial court, and he has more power to speak before the saint than Li Yu, the pious king.
But in the end, Li Yu was still disappointed, because Li You didn't know about it, and even Li You's third division and three young men didn't know about it.
There was no way, Li Yu had no choice but to go to his father in person.
Here Li Ye is discussing with Zong Zhengqing about when the prince will get married, and it is tentatively set for next year, because at that time, the East Palace has already been repaired, and the prince and the future princess are slightly older.
Although he got married early in this era, Li Ye didn't want his son to get married too early, so he set the wedding date for next year.
At this time, Ximen Jun came to report that Li Yu, the pious king, was waiting outside the Xuanzheng Palace.
"Why is he here?" Li Ye was a little puzzled.
"Your Majesty, since His Royal Highness the King of Piety has something to ask to see His Majesty, the minister will retire first. On the side of the prince's wedding, the minister will discuss with the Ministry of Rites to set a good day and an auspicious day, and then let His Majesty decide. Li Zhirou said respectfully.
"Okay, you go get busy first."
After speaking, Li Zhirou retreated directly, and when she went out, she also met the young Li Yu, and said hello without talking too much.
"Come on, go and call the third child in." After Li Zhirou left, Li Ye commanded.
After a long while, the young Li Yu walked in respectfully, and then saluted Li Ye.
"Erchen has seen his father."
Li Yu was still a little apprehensive, after all, Li Ye was full of majesty in the hearts of this group of princes, and no one dared to annoy him.
"Third child, why did you remember to see your father? But I'm not used to opening the house, or I don't have the money to use? Father, but I heard that you spend a lot of money these days. Li Ye joked.
"Back to my father, in addition to asking my father for peace when I entered the palace this time, I also had a broken son to play to my father." Li Yu said in a low voice. 113
"Excerpts? What's your excerpt? Do you care about government affairs too? Hearing that Li Yu was going to hand over the fold, Li Ye was a little curious.
He is not angry, the smarter his son is, the better, and he will not object to actively participating in political affairs, as long as he does not cross his bottom line.
"It was also something that Erchen accidentally discovered, and he had some thoughts in his heart, so he wrote his thoughts on the fold, and wanted his father to comment on it."
Saying that, Li Yu raised the fold with both hands, and Ximen Jun went over to take it and handed it to Li Ye.
Li Ye took the fold and looked at it, at first he was a little contemptuous, but the more he looked back, the more surprised he became, "Your writing is a little advanced, but this content is not what you want to come up with, right?" ”
Li Ye did not put down the excerpt, which shows that he attaches some importance to the content of the excerpt.
Li Yu hurriedly replied, "Back to my father, the above idea was thought of by the son, but the content has been moistened by the literati in the palace, and I hope that my father will be clear." ”
"You said that you think that copper coins or silk are not suitable for measuring the value of those goods, how do you have such an idea?" Li Ye said curiously.
"Back to my father, this is also what my son found when he went to the East Market to buy things these days. Just a fine piece of jewelry has to be exchanged for dozens of pounds of copper coins.
In the past few days, the child has also discussed with the subordinate officials in the palace, and the child thinks that this is very troublesome. If it is only a commodity of small value, it will not have much impact, but if it involves the transaction of commodities with high value, hundreds or thousands, it will not be a lot of copper coins, and Erchen thinks that this is extremely inconvenient.
As for the silk cloth, the ministers don't know much, but it is said that the value of the silk cloth fluctuates greatly, and the imperial court is also using silk cloth to collect taxes, which is obviously also very unfavorable. ”
"You know a lot about this, you didn't come up with it alone, did you?" Li Ye smiled, "Since you think that copper coins and silk cloth are not suitable, what can you do?" ”
"This..." Originally, Li Yu didn't come for this matter today, and his preparation was not very sufficient, but when Li Ye asked for the solution, he was a little caught off guard.
"You're not here for this today, are you? I don't know. The treacherous and cunning Li Ye immediately saw that Li Yulai was just an excuse to hand over the fold.
"Father, son... Sons... Li Yu didn't know how to answer.
"Are you doing it for the Nanzhao County Lord?" Li Ye asked with a smile.
"How did Father know?" Li Yu regretted it after speaking.
"You go to that mansion every day, the three princes of Chang'an's powerful families have fallen in love with a Nanzhao woman, if my father doesn't know it, wouldn't it really be deaf to what is going on outside the window?" Li Ye smiled.
"Father, I didn't expect you to know." Li Yu was a little embarrassed, "That Qing'er... No, what about the alliance of Nanzhao? ”
"You know a lot, you even know about it." Li Yegao glanced at this son, "Do you really like that county lord of Nanzhao?" ”
Li Yu nodded hurriedly.
"Do you know what it means that you are going to marry her as a princess?" Li Ye said in a deep voice.
"Erchen knows."
"You just know it. Nanzhao came to discuss the alliance, you don't have to ask, it's not for you to participate, and I also tell you that the father of the Nanzhao county lord is a little patient.
If you can't even wait for this little time, the alliance will be forgotten. Li Ye said.
"Erchen understood." Li Yu was a little disappointed, so he prepared to retreat.
"Don't worry, this folded son will give you an annotation and let someone send it to your palace. What you said is a good thing, if you have time, think about how to solve it.
If you don't understand, just ask, although I don't want you to make friends with courtiers in private, but I can't rest on my laurels.
This is related to taxes, you should ask the household department more, there are more people over there, you know?
There is also the matter of the Nanzhao County Lord, my father will help you solve it. ”
Hearing this, Li Yu was a little surprised, and turned excited.
"Father, rest assured! The son must not be ashamed to ask, and then present a more comprehensive excerpt to the father.
Where did the minister retire? Li Yu said tentatively.
"Go, go and see your mother by the way, you have entered the palace, go and see by the way." Li Ye reminded.
"Erchen takes orders!"
Looking at the departing Li Yu, Li Ye smiled and shook his head.
Regarding the monetary reform, Li Ye is actually a little hesitant here, since Li Yu is interested, it doesn't hurt to let him try it.
