Li Zhe looked at Li Hong with a slightly complaining expression, he had long known that his brother would not be at ease, and looking at the natural and reassuring look, he knew that his guess was right nine times out of ten.

Of course, someone didn't care about Li Zhe's gaze, and still said happily: "So if I say this favor, I have to help me, except for you, ......." ”

"Less, what about your group of courtiers who are close to the prince? In the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, the princelings now occupy half of the country...... ”

"You've got a lot of skills, aren't you? What do you call my people? The Father is the Heavens. Li Hong pointed to the top of his head and continued: "His old man is the emperor, this country belongs to his father, everything is my courtiers, and if the relationship is good on weekdays, it doesn't mean that he is a princeling!" Li Hong took the fishing rod that had returned in vain, and stabbed Li Zhe, who was still far away, and said.

"Pull it down." Li Zhe blocked the fishing rod, walked in front of him and squatted down and said: "Now it is not only said above the court, but also among the noble and wealthy families. Look at what you have changed from being in charge of the country before the first day of last year to now, what has the Ministry of War asked you to change? Except for Jin Wuwei, you didn't dare to move, and the others were not changed beyond recognition by you, and then firmly controlled by you. Li Zhe said as he hung up the bait for Li Hong, and then released the hook.

"Anything else?" Li Hong continued to ask quietly, his eyes fixed on the fish floating on the water.

"Yes, Guozijian, Hongwenguan, five surnames and seven wangs, everyone said that you forced them to be in a hurry, and now they are all in a panic, it is said that you have already taken them under the knife, I don't know when you will abolish them all, saying that the father and the queen mother can't control it, you are covering the sky with one hand, and the power is too great." I don't know if Li Zhe is intentional or unintentional, in short, this relatively down-to-earth prince said it all like pouring beans into a bamboo tube.

"Although the five surnames and seven hopes are weaker than in previous years, and their influence is not as strong as before, but as the saying goes, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and with their current influence, it should be no problem to incite the world's corporal to shout grievances for them, right?" Li Hong turned his head and asked.

"That's nature."

"But look at the world's corporals and ink scholars, do you have any grievances for them?" Li Hong asked with a smile.

"Yes, but less, but why? The people of the world have always looked at the horses with five surnames and seven heads, why don't they stand on their side this time? Li Zhe looked at Li Hong and asked thoughtfully.

Li Hong smiled again, stared at Bai Chun's fish drift, watched Bai Chun catch a fish again, and said disapprerovingly: "That's because, although the world's corporals are looking forward to their five surnames and seven horses, but now the imperial court can directly control their careers, since the implementation of the imperial examination system, the influence has become greater and greater, and it has become more and more valued by students, so naturally they have been ignored." Again...... Are the five surnames and seven wangs now opening schools on a large scale? But why didn't the scholars applaud them, but praised the court? ”

"Why?"

"Are you stupid to be kicked in the brain by a horse in the clouds? You still don't understand what you said? "Li Hongqi knotted, I have seen those who go down their own lines, but I have never seen those who only listen and don't think.

Li Zhe rolled his eyes in the face of Li Hong's hatred, but he continued to ask: "What you said is not clear, how can I understand?" ”

"Because it is the decision of the imperial court to open a school on a large scale, it is in the name of the Tang Dynasty, not in the name of their five surnames and seven hopes, but only with the help of their hands, so the people of the world will only praise the imperial court, not praise the five surnames and seven hopes, so it is not an invisible continuation to weaken their influence, even if they are bitter in their hearts now, they can only be dumb and can't say that they are suffering from Coptis chinensis!" Li Hong looked helplessly at Li Zhe, who only knew how to dance knives and guns, and said with hatred that iron is not steel.

"Oh...... I said, I understand when you say that, or you are lost, what a pit! ”

"Get out."

Naturally, in a very happy conversation with Li Zhe, Li Zhe, who is the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, said that he would not agree to anything, even if you threw it into the lake, he also made up his mind not to agree.

Looking at Li Zhe's departing back, thinking back to the words just now, Bai Chun said softly next to Li Hong: "King Ying has really grown up." ”

"Yes, when I grew up, I knew how to pretend to be stupid." Li Hong said with relief.

"Then what is Your Highness going to do? Princess Lanling, Princess Xincheng and others are urging, and if they can't get the approval of the Ministry of Industry, the silver we raised will be put like this every day, but it is all a loss. Bai Chun said a little uncontrollably.

Now it's May, and if you can't get the approval of the Ministry of Industry to start work, this year will pass, and if you want to start work, you have to start next year.

"Don't you understand that? Didn't the queen mother intervene? Otherwise, how dare the Ministry of Industry delay it for so long? The queen mother wants to exchange conditions with me with your approval. Li Hong said with a headache.

But if Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi are appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry and the squire of the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Industry will not do anything.

Now the queen mother is stumbling with you, if you don't give it, I will threaten the Ministry of Industry not to approve it, I have nothing to do with the Ministry of Industry every day, and I don't speak, just turn around and see who can do anything to me?

If it is in other dynasties or the empress of any emperor, maybe the Ministry of Industry can do it without it, but ...... Only during the reign of Li Zhi in the Tang Dynasty, this assumption could not be established.

Who was the queen of this period? That is the queen who sits in the Xuanzheng Hall and listens to the government when the emperor suffers from vertigo, and who can independently deal with any Tang Dynasty government affairs, who can afford to provoke her?

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Prison Country has to accompany the smiling face every day when he sees it, and if there is a slight mistake, he will immediately attract the prince who is abused by a feather duster, and he does not dare to disobey half a point.

Do you expect those people in the Ministry of Industry to dare to disobey the queen's secret will?

Whether it is Li Hong or other officials of the Ministry of Industry, they are all bitter and unspeakable, the queen has never said clearly that she wants to support Wu Chengsi or Wu Sansi to be the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, but everyone can clearly and correctly understand that the queen wants one of the two people, Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi, to be the secretary of the Ministry of Industry.

Therefore, the queen went around the Ministry of Industry every once in a while, without saying a word, but everyone's hearts were like mirrors, and Miss Bai's approval must not be approved, unless she wanted to lose her head.

"On the first day, you and Aunt Lanling ran to the palace without anything, and played mahjong with the queen mother and father every day, and sent them money, but they didn't convince them?" Li Hong beckoned to Heng Yanfan on the opposite side and continued to ask Bai Chun next to him.

"We played small on the first day, and the princess of Xincheng lost too much on the first day of the year, and after getting some back, she changed the bet, not to mention ...... His Majesty and the Empress now pay credit as long as they lose, and if they win, they will immediately give them silver, so they simply play smaller. Bai Chun looked a little helpless, what can he do? I'm helpless too.

"No matter how small it is, it can't impress an approval." Li Hong no longer had any hope for his dragon father and dragon horse's brand, because he was also one of the victims.

"Two-four-six."

"That's a lot."

"Wen, two yuan, four yuan, six yuan."

"I ......."

It's no wonder that on the first day, Bai Chun was like a money fan, every time he came to the East Palace, he was loaded with a lot of copper coins, and it turned out to be mahjong for two pennies, so it was no wonder that he didn't give approval.

Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi were born in the same year, only three years older than Li Hong, which is why Li Hong was reluctant to let them serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry.

What's more, the two have been in Chang'an for many years, but the famous gentlemen, the frequent visitors of Pingkangfang, where the flower shop gathers, let them serve as Shangshu, Li Hong felt that it would be better to transfer them all to Lingnan and follow their father.

But it was also because of their father back then, and now Wu Mei, after retiring to the harem, began to feel a little sorry for them back then, so she began to vigorously cultivate and support her nephew.

Now both of them are from the title of Sanpin: the founding candidate, but just like that, they still can't satisfy Li Hong's dragon mother, and they still stubbornly hope that the two of them can go further in their careers.

As a result, this problem was placed in front of Li Hong, making him unable to retreat and avoid.

Heng Yanfan, together with Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi, is an official in the Ministry of Industry, which is also Li Hong's deliberate purpose, and he plans to train Heng Yanfan who followed him back then as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, but if this position is occupied by Wu Chengsi or Wu Sansi, it will be even more difficult for Heng Yanfan to take the position again.

"What do you think of those two?" Li Hong threw down the fishing rod, walked with Heng Yanfan by the lake, and asked lightly.

"Back to Your Highness, these two are ...... It's not good to judge, right? Heng Yanfan said with some embarrassment.

"What nonsense, transfer you to the Ministry of Engineering, you don't understand my thoughts in your heart? Then I'll say it directly, there is an order from above, I want Wu Sansi to be appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and Wu Chengsi is the left waiter of the Ministry of Industry, ....... ”

"Upper? Where is it, Your Highness? "Heng Yanfan is a little confused, now Your Highness is in charge of the country, and you are the Shangshu Provincial Shangshu Order who is in charge of the six departments, and there are people who are more powerful than you.

Li Hong looked at Heng Yanfan, who was a little dazed, and said impatiently: "My queen mother, do you understand?" Where else, you pig brains, you, are you stupid in the Ministry of Industry or stupid in Anxi? ”

"Your Highness atonements, Your Majesty...... The minister didn't understand for a while. ”

Li Hong glanced at him angrily, and then asked in a soothing tone, "How do you get along with the two of them in the Ministry of Industry?" Do you know what the temperament of the two of them is? ”

In the next few years, the Ministry of Industry wants to open the main roads connected by all roads in the world, repair water conservancy, persuade agriculture and mulberry, and the Ministry of Industry has a great division of responsibilities, with the ability of the two to ...... The minister thinks...... It's hard to do it. Especially in the southwest, I am afraid that once they take charge of the Ministry of Works, I don't know if this policy can be started. Heng Yanfan said matter-of-factly.
