Li Shimin laughed and said to Long Ying: "Go, let Lao Yuan prepare a big private room, let those princes outside stay, I want to treat them." ”

Leng Feng stood up and said suspiciously: "It stands to reason that you should go back to deal with government affairs, why do you still have the leisure to have dinner with me?" ”

Today's Li Shimin is very abnormal, every time he entertains others, he picks a "scheduled" day, and now that the locust plague has not passed, it stands to reason that he should have a lot of things to deal with.

Lao Yuan's movements were very fast, and it didn't take long for him to knock on the door to say that the banquet was ready, Leng Feng originally wanted to leave, but Li Shimin asked him not to pretend anymore, the people invited to this banquet were all Li Shimin's former subordinates, and they would definitely not leak secrets.

When Li Shimin and Leng Feng walked in, the eldest grandson Wuji and the others breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, they didn't expose their old bottoms!

Cheng Yanjin has always been very aggressive, and when he saw Leng Feng coming in, he laughed: "I knew you were fine, how could Your Majesty beat you half to death!" ”

Leng Feng smiled bitterly, but Li Shimin glared at Cheng Biting Jin and glared at Cheng Biting Jin honestly.

Li Shimin sat on the main seat, glanced at the banquet, and found that there were meatballs, so he nodded with satisfaction, and asked Long Ying to bring the meatballs in front of him, he wanted to monopolize them!

The tables and chairs upstairs in the world are not traditional separate seats, but a whole large table, there is a turntable in the center of the table, each person is equipped with a pair of chopsticks and a pair of chopsticks for their own use, without this setting, the people of the Tang Dynasty will not accept the change of tables and chairs.

Blind and exquisite! Eat like an AIDS epidemic!

Leng Feng beckoned Lao Yuan and said, "A few more plates of meatballs." ”

Li Shimin likes meatballs, one plate is not enough for him to eat, and there are many generals present, all of whom are masters of eating large intestines!

Li Shimin has now also abandoned the ancient adage of "food does not speak", knocked on the table and said: "The locust plague has survived for the time being, and now the people of the entire Guanzhong have been affected, so we can't just exchange grain for locusts in Chang'an, and we must also open grain exchange points in other places!"

Now every time Chang'an opens the city gate, a large number of people who go to the Tianxia Tower and the gates of the generals' mansions to exchange food will be crowded, and then set up a loose grain point outside the city, so that the people will not have to wait for the city gate to open with locusts. ”

The curfew in Chang'an City, Li Shimin does not intend to abolish it temporarily.

Everyone nodded in unison, at this time the reputation that should be earned has earned enough, when the "stall" at the door of their own house, is to tell the people who opened this "stall", when the grain is scattered, you can't always put up a sign on the book: "Eguo Gong Lieutenant Chi Jingde Loose Grain Office", or drag the people to tell people that this is the Eguo Gong's bulk grain point! What a shame that is!

Now that the fame has been gained, it doesn't have to be on your doorstep.

Fang Xuanling can often find problems: "Your Majesty, although there are a lot of locusts, they will be caught after all, and the food that the people get can only be temporarily satisfied, so as not to starve to death, but what should they do after the locusts are caught?" ”

Li Shimin had already planned: "My Qujiang Pond should also be repaired, isn't the Tianwen Academy also preparing to pave a cement road to connect the main road?" When the time comes, recruit men and pay them money and food as payment. ”

"Qujiangchi~ It will definitely cost a lot of manpower." Wei Zheng nodded, Qujiang Pond is a royal garden, if Li Shimin plans to build a garden at another time, he will definitely stop it, but if it is connected with the relief victims, he will be happy to see it.

"Jingde!"

When Wei Chigong heard the emperor calling him, he quickly stood up: "The last general!" ”

Li Shimin pointed to his chair and said, "This is not the court, you can sit down." ”

After Wei Chi Gong sat down, Li Shimin said: "The locust plague in China, the Western Turks and Tibetans will definitely be restless first, and I plan to send you to the Western Turkic border to demonstrate and deter them from thinking of divisiveness." Zhijie~"

"The last general!"

Cheng Yanjin wanted to stand up reflexively, but Li Ji next to him pulled him and asked him to continue sitting.

"I'll leave it to you over there, how about it?"

Cheng Yanjin said with a big grin: "Of course there is no problem!" Those Tibetan people had better not go down the mountain, I'll kill them if they go down the mountain! ”

"Neither nor not~"

Fang Xuanling knocked on the table with chopsticks: "You guy is a tendon in the brain, Your Majesty has said it, it is a deterrent, let you go over to be a deterrent, there must not be many soldiers for you, if you don't start fighting, you will be exposed!" ”

"Huh? How many soldiers are not given? Cheng Yanjin said dissatisfiedly: "Your Majesty, if you don't give it to people, let me fight it!" ”

Li Shimin said helplessly: "A few years ago, Li Jing and Li Xiaogong conquered Gaochang, plus this year's locust plague, do you think there is still grain and grass in the treasury?" I don't have any grain and grass for you, so you go with money and guards, and collect grain and grass from the government soldiers on the spot. ”

Wei Chigong also understood: "Your Majesty, is the general also going to Longyou Road to recruit troops and be on the spot in Longyou Road......... Buying grain and grass? ”

Li Shimin nodded: "This is the only way under the catastrophe, Longyou Dao and Shuzhong are your rear, Longyou side, Jingde, I will give you 10,000 yuan as military expenses, is it enough?" ”

"Enough!" Wei Chigong nodded, although there was no grain and grass provided by the imperial court, but 10,000 yuan to buy grain was enough, there was no war, and the surplus money could even be used to reward the soldiers.

"As for the ......... in Shuzhong"

Cheng Yanjin said with a big grin: "Your Majesty, it's enough to give Lao Cheng 5,000 guan!" Although the Tibetan people are not easy to deal with, they will not easily go down to the plateau, and their number is small, which is much easier to deal with than the grassland people! ”

Li Jing thought for a while before saying: "Eight thousand runs, Your Majesty, how can it be a conscription, the soldiers can't get a reward, and it is the imperial court that is trembling." ”

Li Shimin nodded: "It's just 8,000 yuan, and the two of you will go downstairs another day to withdraw the money directly." ”

"Ahem! Ahem........."

Everyone was thinking about it, but they were startled by Leng Feng's choked voice!

Li Xiaogong, who was closest to Leng Feng, hurriedly handed him a glass of wine: "Gong Xi Guo, look at you, why are you still choking?" ”

Lao Yuan also came over to pat Leng Feng on the back, and after a long toss, Leng Feng stopped coughing.

Seeing Leng Feng getting better, the others continued to eat, and as soon as Leng Feng got better, he quietly pulled Li Shimin: "Are you going to directly deduct the auction fees of the two "A Fang Gong Fu" for military expenses?" ”

Li Shimin smiled slightly: "Naturally! That's my money, and it's at my disposal. ”

Leng Feng held back for a long time before he spit out two words: "Shameless!" ”

The most shameless person in the world is probably Li Shimin, who lied to the wall of the imperial study when he wanted to collect it, and put it up for auction when he was short of money, and violated the agreement that "all the proceeds will be used to buy grain for disaster relief" and used it as military expenses.

Oh hoo! Everyone really has it in stock ( ́-ω-'), ask for a monthly pass again~
