Seeing Li You come out, everyone became even more nervous.

Li You said: "Lord Wei, I don't have any money, everyone knows that in order to help the imperial court solve the Tuyuhun matter, I borrowed a large amount of money from other Persian merchants, and until now, I am still pulling the famine."

250,000 yuan, each person has to donate a lot.

You ministers have money, and I have no objection to you donating if you are willing to donate, but I don't donate anyway. ”

A civil official said: "Your Royal Highness the King of Qi, even if you have money, you don't donate, we only have a meager income, and we can't afford to support a large family." ”

"yes, yes, we're all poor." The ministers chimed in.

Li You said: "If any of you are willing to donate, please stand up, and if you are not willing to donate, stand still." ”

There was a commotion in the main hall a few times, and as a result, only Wei Zheng and the two imperial historians stood up.

Li You was overjoyed and said: "Great, there is such a good official, very good, 250,000 guan, each of the three of you, uh, I calculate, three hundred and eighty-four, well, not much, each person is a little more than 80,000 guan." ”

"What? 80,000? We just said we wanted to donate, but we didn't say we wanted to donate so much! Besides, we can't get it out even if we sell everything!" The two imperial histories shouted and collided with the sky.

Li You asked, "Then do you still donate?" ”

"There is nothing the ministers can do." The two imperial historians retreated, and only Wei Zheng was left in the main hall.

"Let's share it evenly. If you agree, please come forward. Li You said.

No one in the hall answered.

At this time, Jingzhao Yin Chuheng stood up, and he said, "Your Majesty, the minister has a way. "He was entrusted by Li Chengqian.

When everyone saw that someone came out, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Shimin said: "Chu Heng, you can talk about it." ”

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince heard about the situation of the students of Guozijian and was very worried, and accompanied by the minister, he inspected the situation of Guozijian and other schools. Let the minister figure it out.

The minister mobilized his subordinates to come up with ideas, and unexpectedly learned that there were several merchants in Chang'an City, who were willing to share his Majesty's worries, and were willing to donate 300,000 yuan to repair all the official school buildings in Chang'an City. ”

There was a lot of discussion in the main hall.

"Ah, these merchants are really rich. It must be a profiteer, otherwise, where did so much money come from? Someone said.

"Yes, it's really rich, these guys are not benevolent to the rich, and they should be allowed to shed some blood." Someone said.

"Buzz, buzz".

Without waiting for them to finish their humming, Li Shimin said happily: "Okay, such businessmen deserve to be commended, I have allowed them to serve the country and share the worries of the court." ”

Li Chengqian immediately stood up and said: "My father is wise, and my son is in favor." ”

A group of ministers said: "The minister seconded the proposal. ”

The ministers who were unwilling to pay also said: "The ministers seconded the proposal." ”

Li Ke and Li Tai were notified by Zeng Wenwen and Xiao Qian in advance and asked them to come out to support, so they were not to be outdone and followed Li Chengqian to express their attitude.

Li Chengqian, Li Ke and Li Tai fought with each other, just for the position of the crown prince, as long as it did not involve this aspect of the matter, they also supported the things that were beneficial to the imperial court. No matter who becomes the emperor, I also hope that the affairs of the court will be easy to handle.

Each of the three princes' subordinates had a large number of supporters, who followed behind and seconded the proposal.

Li Shimin was overjoyed and said, "Very good, I have decided to accept the donations of these businessmen, and the Ministry of Rites will commend them. ”

Some of the ministers felt that there was something wrong, and this was clearly a singing act. Although they didn't know what Li Shimin was going to do for a while, they instinctively wanted to oppose it. But in the present situation, they cannot object.

The eldest grandson Wuji came out and said: "The minister agrees with the righteous deeds of the merchants, and in order to encourage the merchants to continue to serve the imperial court, the minister suggests that these merchants should be set an example and the imperial court's reward for them should be announced to the world." ”

Fang Xuanling said: "The minister seconded the proposal. ”

Zeng Wenwen said: "The minister seconded the proposal. ”

The generals of the military joined the motion.

Under the leadership of Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li Ke, the civil officials also expressed their approval.

Li Shimin was very happy and said, "Yes." For the rewards of businessmen, the Ministry of Books and Rites will take the lead, and the Ministry of Officials and Rites will participate in the opinions and implement them as soon as possible. ”

For the first time, he said that the Ministry of Rites would implement a reward for merchants, and that it was only a nominal reward. Now that the Ministry of Books and the Ministry of Officials are involved, it is of great significance. I'm afraid there will be some substantial incentives.

At this time, Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, patriotic businessmen are not only in Chang'an, but also in other places." Not long ago, the minister received a piece of music, a patriotic businessman in Jingyang County donated a school, and the minister suggested that it be rewarded. ”

Li Shimin was overjoyed and praised: "Okay, good, my Tang Dynasty people are simple, and even the businessmen have shown patriotic enthusiasm, which is gratifying."

Zeng Wenwen, Fang Xuanling, and eldest grandson Wuji took the lead in drafting incentives for these businessmen, which will be discussed and implemented tomorrow morning.

Okay, that's it for today, let's disperse. ”

"Retreat!" Wang De screamed.

Soon after, the Liangyi Palace.

Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, eldest grandson Wuji, Zeng Wenwen, Gao Jingming, Wei Zheng and the princes discussed together.

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Your Majesty, this is a tough battle, today is just to win the beginning, the real test is still to come." ”

Fang Xuanling nodded and said: "Yes, this matter will not be so simple, I'm afraid there will be turmoil, tomorrow will be a real tough battle in the court." ”

Li Shimin said: "Today, several princes and all Aiqing have performed well, and I hope everyone will work together to win tomorrow's battle."

Li Chengqian, Li Ke, you continue to do a good job of getting acquainted with the ministers, and Li Tai should give full play to the role of the Literature Museum and mobilize the scribes to support the reform measures of the imperial court.

Li You, you have to keep an eye on those two old stubborns, their attitudes are extremely important.

Ladies and gentlemen, you should pay close attention to the trends in all aspects and avoid accidents. ”

"Sons, ministers, etc., obey the order." They all replied in unison.

Li Shimin is so cautious, not because the grass and trees are all soldiers, but because he has a real lesson in the past. Although the civil official team controlled by the gate lord clan does not have the leading figures of important ministers, their group is huge and their power cannot be underestimated.

Li Shimin decided to take a thunderous step, not to leave time for the opponents to react, and to quickly pass the imperial court's resolution tomorrow morning.

Sure enough, many civil officials felt that there was something wrong, but they hadn't figured out what kind of medicine was sold in Li Shimin's gourd for a while, so the afternoon passed smoothly.

Tonight, many people are destined to have a sleepless night.

The next day, the morning pilgrimage.

Today is the day when the mystery is revealed, and the ministers are all cheering up to see what Li Shimin is going to do!
