It is no wonder that it is not easy for the Son of Heaven to go on patrol, and if he goes on patrol too much, he will encounter strong opposition from the ministers. Because the Son of Heaven moves, there are too many involved, and when the Son of Heaven arrives, it is equivalent to the relocation of the imperial court, and the prince who remains behind by the regent only deals with daily affairs, and all major military and political affairs need to be reported to the Son of Heaven, which involves many changes in the reporting process of the imperial court and the local government.

Moreover, it is for safety reasons and the inevitable "disturbance of people's livelihood" along the way.

In Puzhou, in order to welcome the Son of Heaven, Zhao Yuankai, the assassin of Puzhou, began to prepare four months in advance, building a palace, expanding the city, paving roads, building bridges, and building a large number of civil works.

Finally, in the crisp autumn season, the Son of Heaven's car arrived in Puzhou.

Zhao Yuankai and the old official gentry of Puzhou, wearing yellow gauze single clothes, greeted the left side of the road with a grand ancient ceremony. Li Shimin sat in the car, the bead curtain was rolled, and when he saw the situation in front of him, he was already slightly unhappy in his heart, this battle was too grand, Li Shimin was not an emperor who grew up in the deep palace and did not know the suffering of the people, so he naturally understood how to work the people and hurt the money and mobilize the people to do this.

Li Shimin didn't get out of the car, but just raised his hand slightly, and said loudly: "I am fortunate to be in Zhongzhou today, and I am greeted by the elders of Laopuzhou." Taishou doesn't have to be too formal, so let's go into the city! ”

Zhao Yuankai got up happily, retreated to the side of the road, and when the holy car passed, his subordinates led the horse, hurriedly pulled the saddle and got on the horse, and followed the car of the Son of Heaven to drive into the city.

The loess mat in front of the city was tamped seven times, and it cost 15,000 yuan to make these yellow gauze single clothes, and the gentry and old men rehearsed with this no less than ten times, and the result was that the emperor's car stopped for a moment.

When the gentry got up, they couldn't help but be slightly disappointed, why did they come after spending so much?

Zhao Yuankai doesn't care about this, for him, this is just a matter of moving his mouth, how long do the people under him be busy? I believe that when the Son of Heaven sees this smooth and mirror-like road and this uniform greeting, he will inevitably leave the impression of a cadre in his heart, and this is worth it.

The Son of Heaven left the palace, the purge has been completed, Zhao Yuankai three days in advance, he came to inspect every day, Li Yu also came over, this is the residence of the Son of Heaven during Puzhou, if there is something wrong here, even he can't get out of it, you must come and see.

However, although Li Yu came to check, he was not as careful as Zhao Taishou, who climbed high and low, and even brought Shen and Jing when he came, so he was distracted. After all, this palace is also a palace, although it is not as solemn and magnificent as the palace, but the rules of the establishment are according to the rules of the palace, which is very different from the folk architecture, and can be eye-opening.

This palace has one advantage over the formal palace: the gardens are lush. Li Yu walked to the forest, but saw that the fruit trees were very good, the branches and fruits had long been ripe, orange apples, plums and fragrant pears, heavily embellished on the branches, Zhao Yuankai in order to wait for the emperor to come to have a look, it was strictly forbidden to pick, some of the ripe fruits, the wind blew bigger, and even fell.

Li Yu saw that the pears were born very well, and remembered that the two daughters were gentle and well-behaved, and they were obedient on the bed, never disobeyed, and they were lovely on the ground, and on a whim, they wanted to pick a few pears for them to eat, and saw a ladder next to the attic, so they went to move it and put it on the tree.

Li Yu climbed up the ladder, grabbed the trunk of the tree, and was about to pick a few pears to come down, Zhao Yuankai grabbed Yicheng's arm and walked angrily: "You said you have checked it twice today?" Come on, come on, come and see, there is obviously a gray ...... behind the plaque on this lintel."

When Zhao Yuankai said this, he suddenly saw that the ladder resting next to the lintel was gone, and when he turned his head to look, he saw that under a tree, two beautiful women were looking up at the branches and leaves on the tree, clapping their hands and laughing, and they were furious: "Bold, who allows you to pick fruits." ”

Zhao Yuankai rushed over angrily, he didn't recognize the second daughter of Shen Jing for a while, the second daughter had only met him once, and he was not an important person, and the other one, the two girls were dressed in simple green clothes, and they looked like maids.

Zhao Yuankai rushed to the bottom of the tree, pointed to his deep nose, and was about to scold sharply, when there was a "pop", a pear fell from the tree and hit him on the head.

Zhao Yuankai was stunned, Huo Ran raised his head, and as a result, several pears fell down one after another, smashing on his forehead, nose, and mouth, and then, the head of Li Yu poked out among the lush leaves.

"Ouch! Zhao Taishou! ”

Zhao Yuankai covered his sour nose and stared at Li Yu with tears: "Li Gongbu, why did you go up the tree?" ”

"Zhao Taishou, this can't be done!"

Li Yu looked cautious and hurriedly climbed down from the tree.

Li Yu was originally on the tree to pick pears, and the ripe pears picked were on the placket, and when he heard someone shouting below, he leaned over and looked down, and as a result, several pears in the placket fell down one after another, and none of them were wasted, and they all smashed on Zhao Yuankai's head.

Li Yu said to Zhao Yuankai with a serious face: "Zhao Taishou, this is really not good, it is easy to have problems." ”

Zhao Yuankai looked at him with a serious face, and he couldn't care about being angry, and asked curiously: "What really doesn't work?" ”

Li Yu pointed to the tree and said, "These fruits are all ripe." Xia Guan just shook it lightly on the tree, and dropped five or six pears, this is the Son of Heaven's palace, you think, if the Son of Heaven is walking under this tree, the breeze is blowing, and he is relaxed, but the tree suddenly ......"

Li Yu smashed a few pears in a row, and they were all smashed on the head, and he was afraid that others would get angry, and he was worried in his heart, so he thought of such a reason, just hoping to divert Zhao Yuankai's attention, but it was just a fluke, but unexpectedly, it really worked.

When Zhao Yuankai heard this, he woke up and was taken aback.

He deliberately left these fruits because he wanted them to be fruitful, but he forgot that these fruit trees were relatively tall, and people could walk below......

I was smashed to the point of being extremely ruined, what should the Son of Heaven do?

Zhao Yuankai immediately said solemnly: "What Zhao Gongbu said is very true, but the official is not thoughtful enough. ”

Zhao Taishou, who was as good as a stream, immediately summoned the post keeper to come, and ignored the dust behind the plaque on the lintel, and ordered them to immediately gather all the post guards, shake the fruit tree by tree, and shake the ripe fruit down.

Therefore, when Li Shimin stayed in the palace, the fruit trees here were already like the peach orchard guarded by Sun Wukong, very deserted.

This time, there were about 30 civil and military ministers who accompanied the Son of Heaven to visit Puzhou, and almost the entire imperial court followed. Zhao Taishou entered the Son of Heaven, as the governor of Puzhou, first greeted the Son of Heaven, gave a brief answer, then got up to say goodbye, and hurriedly ran to settle those civil and military ministers.

The Son of Heaven came to visit Puzhou, and he must have learned about the local military and politics, but he just arrived today, so he didn't have to listen to Zhao Yuankai's report. Zhao Yuankai retreated, and the emperor could take a bath and rest for a while, because tonight Zhao Yuankai also carefully organized a dinner party for the Son of Heaven.

However, Li Shimin is in the prime of life, in good spirits, and he has not felt tired along the way. Immediately, I saw Li Yu again.

Li Yu walked into the main hall of the palace and saw the Son of Heaven. Li Shimin took a sip of tea and asked lightly: "What did you see and hear all the way to Puzhou?" ”

Although there was an imperial history in the Tang Dynasty, there was no inspection of the imperial history like a certain road in the Ming and Qing dynasties, which was responsible for evaluating local discipline, so whenever there was a Qin sent to the local government, the emperor would follow the routine to make some inquiries, and as a bystander, he would make some objective evaluations, which would help the Son of Heaven understand the place.

Seeing the emperor asking, Li Yu thought for a moment and said, "The minister thinks that Zhao Taishou is very concerned about the matter of the Son of Heaven visiting Zhongzhou. In recent months, with all his efforts and hard work, the scenery of Puzhou has taken on a new look, all of which is the work of Zhao Taishou. ”

What kind of person Li Shimin is, just by hearing it, you know that he is avoiding the important and trivial. Is he wrong? That's right, but is there any evaluation of Zhao Yuankai's political achievements and character? No. He only said that Zhao Yuankai attached great importance to the emperor's northern tour and forgot to sleep and eat for this reason, but this thing is true, but whether he is diligent or flattering, in terms of external performance, it seems that this makes sense.

Moreover, Li Yu's words only said that Zhao Yuankai had been welcoming the Holy Driver in the past few months, and did not mention anything else. In the future, once Zhao Yuankai is promoted, Li Yu has spoken for him. Once Zhao Yuankai fell, Li Yu never boasted about his political achievements and reputation in front of the emperor.

Li Shimin's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "You take the first step, and it has been more than a month since you arrived in Puzhou." There is a way to see the subtlety, this Puzhou City, under the rule of Zhao Yuankai, you don't know nothing, right? You must know that bullying is a capital crime! ”

Li Yu is not depressed in his heart, is this a companion like a tiger, he will be sentenced to death at every turn, but the emperor has already asked so, can he not say it? However, a five-rank ministry official, even if he is only a five-rank magistrate, the authority and political qualifications of the two are not the same, not to mention that he is a third-grade official, and he is a member of the party guarding Zhongzhou.

Even if Li Yu is truthful, he may displease the emperor, and then reprimand Zhao Yuankai a few words, but it is impossible to even demote, but Zhao Yuankai does not dare to find the emperor to settle the account, but he will definitely find his bad luck, why bother?

Li Yu thought about it for a while, and finally thought of a way, owed to Li Shimin, and said: "The minister has been living in the pavilion for nearly a month, and when he went to the south of the city to meet him today, he saw something very interesting, and he was about to say that he knew with His Majesty." ”

P: I'm waiting to get on the boat at the dock, and this chapter is sitting in the car, on the lap of the computer rack, listening to the family babble and write about it. During this period, there were countless phone calls and countless WeChat, but I finally finished the code and am now ready to board the ship.
