Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian, with a look of approval in his eyes, and continued to ask: "Who does the prince think he can send to take on this great task?"

"The person who repairs the road and escorts the grain can send Qiu Xinggong, the general of the Marquis of Youwu, to go, and with his temperament and ability, he should be able to guarantee that the grain will be transported to Chang'an City within ten days." Li Chengqian said and glanced at Li Shiji, and then said: "As for the inconvenience of recommending the generals and ministers of the Zhenshou side, please talk about it!" ”

Li Shimin said noncommittally.

Li Shimin didn't know that Li Chengqian had already had a candidate in his heart, but he was suspicious and refused to say it, and Li Shimin thought that Li Chengqian was suspicious of him, and he couldn't tell what it was like.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the minister is willing to go to Luoyang in person to ensure the stability of Luoyang." Li Shiji wanted to speak just now, but Li Shimin was obviously comparing Li Chengqian, so he kept silent, and at this time, seeing that he seemed to have failed in the examination, he hurriedly took the matter.

"It's safe for Mao Gong to go to me, what does the prince think?" Li Shimin did not give up and continued to test Li Chengqian.

"The military attainments and abilities of the father and the Li soldiers have always been admired, since the father and the Li soldiers both feel that it is feasible, the sons have no objections." Li Chengqian said expressionlessly.

Li Chengqian can train in the East Palace by himself, because Li Shimin doesn't look down on the generals under him at all, but if he dares to hook up with the generals under Li Shimin, even if Li Shimin does not abandon Li Chengqian's thoughts, he will definitely demote Li Shiji far from Chang'an City.

Li Chengqian didn't want to change an ambitious general to preside over the military affairs of the Tang Dynasty, so he had to keep a certain distance from Li Shiji.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has praised it falsely, how dare the ministers compete with the sun and the moon." Li Shiji hurriedly gave way.

"Hehe, don't be too humble, speaking of Chengqian, he still has some eyesight." Li Shimin finally heard Li Chengqian praise him today, and his heart was full of joy for a while......

"Then quickly send someone to pass on Qiu Xinggong!" Li Chengqian said to Li Shimin.

"Well, Chuanqiu Xinggong came to the Liangyi Palace." Li Shimin spoke, and his own inner servant went to pass on the heirs.

Seeing that the matter was half settled, Li Chengqian raised his eyes to look at the ministers in the main hall, and said lightly: "I heard that you all have to participate in the revision of the book?"

If Li Chengqian asks for a book as soon as he comes in, they have 10,000 reasons to wait for Li Chengqian, what kind of grand event, the prince should focus on his studies......

But now that they know that such a big thing has happened in Chang'an City, these people can't speak no matter how thick-skinned they are.

Seeing that they stopped talking, Li Chengqian slammed his crutches to the ground and said hatefully: "A bunch of wastes who don't do their jobs!" The court has anointed you with the will of the people and the people, is it that you are not doing your job?"

Li Chengqian's words showed anger on everyone's faces, and they all looked at Li Shimin waiting for him to speak, Li Shimin sighed in his heart: The prince is still young in the end, and his personality is too impatient.

I want to open my mouth and round the past.

It's just that Li Chengqian was prepared, so he didn't allow others to interject, and changed his words: "Do you think that sending people to Luoyang to stabilize the eastern capital, and then repair the road to transport grain to Chang'an, the crisis will be resolved?"

This is just a target, and it will take a lot of effort to govern the imperial court. ”

Li Chengqian said that he deliberately paused and looked at the faces of Li Shimin and the ministers. This is what he learned in his previous life when he was a lecturer in the company, and it is best to get to the point of interest in the audience, and it is best to have someone ask.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince means that in addition to someone intending to rebel in this matter, there is a bigger conspiracy?" Xiao Yu admires Li Chengqian very much now, so he also listens most seriously.

"Whether the rebellion has anything to do with this matter, the lonely king is not sure yet. However, this time the shortage of grain in Chang'an has indeed sounded the alarm for us, if we cannot properly deal with it, the entire Guanzhong will inevitably suffer from disasters in the future. Li Chengqian still said lightly.

"Why is the prince so worried?" Li Shimin became vigilant.

"The people are no longer growing food, what could be more worrying than this?" Li Chengqian said with a sad face.

"The prince doesn't have to worry about it, I will make an order, Guanzhong must grow all grain this spring." Li Shimin is extremely domineering.

"Father thinks too much, this is not a will that can be changed, if a will can be changed, in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, Huang Wrong would not have written such a long article "On Guisu Shu", this matter will be dealt with by the sons and daughters after thinking about it slowly."

"What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is reasonable, and this matter must be considered in the long run." Ma Zhou stepped forward.

Li Shimin thought about it, but he couldn't think of a reason, and finally had to say stupidly: "Then this matter will be handed over to the prince, and if you need anything, just put it forward." ”

"The ministers obeyed the order, in order to prevent this matter from becoming more serious in the future, all officials involved in dereliction of duty and dereliction of duty this time must be handed over to the criminal department for punishment."

Li Shimin nodded thoughtfully after hearing this, although Li Shimin was not familiar with internal governance, he still had a sense of situation.

The hearts of all the officials involved in the main hall who were involved in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Sinong Temple, and those who were born in Guanzhong suddenly sank to the bottom, and Li Chengqian had only sentenced the case in the Criminal Department a few days ago, so he was merciless......

Li Chengqian was secretly happy when he saw Li Shimin nodding, and said quietly on his face: "In addition, the sons and daughters also asked their father to hand over the matter of book repair to the Chongxian Pavilion to handle the assistant of the Hongwen Pavilion, and the sons and daughters of the book repairers also ordered the examination and selection in the East Palace next spring, and all the talents in the world can participate. Saying that, he glanced at those ministers, and continued: "If the court officials want to come to repair books, they can resign from their current official positions and come to the East Palace to take the exam. ”

"What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is very true!" Xiao Yu today is to discuss with Li Shimin the issue of the right to revise books, and as soon as he heard Li Chengqian say this, he immediately expressed his support.

Li Shimin was already in no mood at all because of the food and possible rebellion, and he just nodded silently when he heard the words.

The ministers below followed Li Shimin to the East Palace in the morning, and then discussed it for a long time, and in the end the bamboo basket was empty.

Naturally, he was not convinced, but at this time, there was a major matter in the imperial court, Li Shimin was obviously distracted, and Li Chengqian also had the power to deal with the shortage of grain in Guanzhong, so no one dared to speak out against it for a while.

"Your Majesty, General Qiu Xinggong asks to see you." An attendant entered the temple to report.

"Xuan!"

After Qiu Xinggong entered the palace to salute, Li Chengqian told him what had happened, and asked him to set off from Chang'an City all the way to Luoyang, and as he went, he sent people to the prefectures and counties along the way to recruit people to build roads, and then he had to bring the first batch of grain and grass to Chang'an City within seven days.

Qiu Xinggong agreed without saying a word, because the matter was urgent, he and Li Shiji did not go home, so they gave an order in the Liangyi Palace, ordered the following personal soldiers to set off directly.

Li Chengqian wanted to lead the horses for them, and the two of them could not stop if they lived or died.

Seeing the two go out, Li Shimin ordered the forbidden army to set up a card on the official road leading from Chang'an to Luoyang, and no matter the officials, businessmen, and people were allowed to go to Luoyang within three days.

Li Chengqian originally wanted to detain the people in the main hall in the Taiji Palace for two days, lest someone send a letter to Luoyang, but now it seems that Li Shimin is still a chess player.

However, Li Chengqian looked at these people and did not intend to let them go.

"Although my father is short of food in the city now, there is still some food for the big families in Chang'an, and the sons are also short of food for disaster relief, so it is better to ask the adults to borrow some food for the sons!"

"Well......" Li Shimin was quite moved, but looked at the minister in front of him with a deep groan.

Gao Shilian and Yang Shidao and other prime ministers were not at the same level as they were able to say anything against them, and they didn't dare to agree first for fear of offending people, so they didn't speak.

In the end, Wei Ting admonished: "It's easy for ministers to donate some food, but now everyone knows that Chang'an rice is cheap, if you suddenly look for people everywhere to donate food, I'm afraid it will arouse the suspicion of the people, and it will be difficult to do it when people's hearts are unstable." ”

"Yes, yes"

……

Many ministers nodded their heads when they heard this, and Li Shimin's faces darkened.

"Don't worry about this, you just say that the father and the emperor are angry that the lonely king punishes corrupt officials too strictly, so you have to embarrass the lonely king, you are for the stability of the world, and the heavenly father and son are harmonious, so help the prince ......" Before Li Chengqian finished speaking, he heard Li Shimin above snort heavily.

The ministers hurriedly retreated, and Li Chengqian saw that there was nothing to do, thinking that there were nearly 10,000 victims outside the city who had not eaten, and also hurriedly retreated.

"What is the prince doing in such a hurry?" Li Shimin is neither yin nor yang, obviously he wants to settle accounts with Li Chengqian while everyone is gone.

"I'm going to find food for the victims!" Li Chengqian rolled his eyes and left directly.
