Chapter 190: The Emperor's Heart

History has had mixed evaluations of Li Shimin, but it is undeniable that he was indeed a good emperor.

As the supreme ruler of the Tang Dynasty, it is most common to go to the hot springs when there is nothing to do in Lishan to build a Tangquan Palace, and the kings of all dynasties have built a large number of civil works to build palaces.

However, since Li Er ascended the throne, he never dared to indulge himself arbitrarily, and even deliberately set up a mirror like Wei Zheng to remind himself all the time, indicating that he has always been in awe, this awe comes from "water can carry a boat, but also can overturn a boat", it is precisely because of awe and strict self-discipline that he can achieve decades of diligent government and love for the people, and even hesitate to build a Tangquan Palace.

Wang Xiang asked himself that if he was in such a high position, he would never be as conscientious and self-disciplined as Li Er, so he never denied that he was just a small person.

Many people are envious of other people's status and status, attribute the success of others to their unique status or luck, and feel that they can do better if they are in that position, but they don't know that no success is accidental. It is not as simple as imagined to endure what ordinary people can't bear and what ordinary people dare not do, so in the thousands of years of history of China, there are only a few prosperous times, more from prosperity to decline, mountains and rivers subverted, and finally annihilated in the long river of history......

Because of the appearance of Wang Xiang, the Tang Dynasty of Zhenguan for ten years is much more prosperous than the Tang Dynasty of Zhenguan for ten years in history, but Li Er still does not dare to slack off, every time he enters the palace, Wang Xiang sees Li Er almost always reading, or reading and reading, or discussing with ministers, many times the meal is a little casual in the Taiji Palace, and occasionally he is relaxed and only in the Lizheng Hall to accompany the eldest Sun Empress to talk.

To be honest, this is very different from the life of the emperor through the ages that Wang Xiang imagined, at least he felt that he was much more comfortable than Li Er.

Walk into the Tai Chi Temple. Li Erzheng sat on the dragon chair with his brows tightly and looked down at a note, and there were several open notes next to him, Chen Gui stood aside respectfully, and smiled kindly when he saw Wang Xiang come in.

Wang Xiang also smiled slightly in response to Chen Gui's kindness, and then bowed to Li Er, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty." ”

"You're here."

Hearing Wang Xiang's voice, Li Er put down the recital in his hand. rubbed his temples with both hands, the headache seemed to be the inheritance of the Li Er family, and even Sun Simiao did not have a complete solution, and Wang Xiang couldn't help it.

Seeing that Li Er's face was not very good, Wang Xiang cautiously asked, "Why is Your Majesty worried?" ”

Li Er sighed when he heard this, pointed to the fold on the table and said: "It has been snowing heavily for several days in a row, and there are many snow disasters in various places, these are all excerpts for disaster reporting. ”

Snowstorm? In his previous life or in his present life, Wang Xiang had never seen what a snow disaster looked like, and there were indeed several heavy snowfalls a few days ago, and he just felt that such heavy snow was rare. In the house, he accompanied the little Lori to build a snowman and have a snowball fight, how could he think of the snow disaster, seeing Li Er's sad appearance, he suddenly felt a little ashamed, and he didn't even know how to say anything about building a hot spring house.

Seeing that Wang Xiang was silent, Li Er said, "I heard that the young slave said that you want to build a Tangquan house in Lishan? ”

"Huh? Your Majesty knows? Wang Xiang looked surprised, thinking that there were snow disasters everywhere in Datang, but he thought about building a hot spring house, and he was suddenly ashamed and frightened.

Seeing Wang Xiang's ashamed and frightened appearance, Li Er shook his head, Wang Xiang's geek sometimes even Li Er would feel jealous, but as Empress Changsun said, he would never threaten himself, because he had no ambition. It can even be said that he is not self-motivated, even if such a person has the ability to reach the sky, he does not pose the slightest threat to himself. Thinking of this, Li Er smiled helplessly. As the emperor, it was the first time that he hoped that others would be ambitious, and he believed that as long as Wang Xiang had a trace of self-motivation or ambition, it would bring great changes to Datang.

"But this time I want to thank you."

"Huh?" Wang Xiang raised his head and looked at the smiling Li Er with a puzzled expression, not knowing what he meant.

"In previous years, when encountering such frequent snow disasters, the people would be killed and injured countless times, and the heavy snow closed the roads and transportation was inconvenient, and the imperial court did not have time to dispatch disaster relief funds and relief materials even if it wanted to provide disaster relief. But this year is different. Because of your suggestion, almost all parts of Datang have set up money banks, and money banks have accumulated a lot of money, so I have already issued an order to let Qian Zhuang in various places allocate funds for disaster relief first, and the merchants and squires everywhere have also generously provided disaster relief, which really makes me happy. ”

In fact, Li Er understood in his heart. The reason why the merchants and squires were so generous was that they all had a lot of money in the bank, and they did not dare to behave badly. In any case, Li Er's prestige among the people will definitely be greatly improved this time to provide timely disaster relief, and the most important thing is that this incident shows that the original idea is completely correct, and with the money in hand, the family will not have to worry.

Hearing that there was a solution to the snow disaster, Wang Xiang also breathed a sigh of relief, Li Er's method is really good, first allocate funds from the money banks in various places for disaster relief, and then let the household department send disaster relief funds to the money in various places, which is faster than the allocation of funds from Chang'an for disaster relief, and can greatly reduce the deaths and injuries of the affected people.

"It is His Majesty's wisdom that can come up with such a clever plan."

Li Er shook his head and smiled: "Okay, you don't have to be a sycophant, you have contributed a lot to this disaster relief, and I will be gracious to the construction of the Tangquan Mansion in Lishan." ”

Wang Xiang was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly thanked him, he didn't expect things to go so smoothly.

However, Li Er's next sentence gave him a bad premonition in his heart.

"In my early years, I fought abroad all the year round, and since I ascended the throne, I have been working hard every day and not daring to slack off. Sun Daochang said that Tangquan could alleviate my condition, and persuaded me to build Tangquan Palace in Lishan to recuperate, but the world was initially decided, and the people did not have to worry about food and clothing, so I really did not dare and did not want to build Tangquan Palace, which made people surround Lishan and not build it. ”

Wang Xiang blinked his eyes and looked at Li Er "I don't know why", why are you telling me this?

Seeing that Wang Xiang didn't react, Li Er continued: "As soon as the weather is cold, the queen's qi disease is getting more and more serious, and I am extremely worried, Sun Daochang said that Tangquan is also good for treating qi diseases. ”

What does this have to do with me? Wang Xiang continued to blink.

Okay, Li Er is just waiting for me to speak.

"Well, in that case, Your Majesty can let someone build Tangquan Palace in Lishan."

Li Eryi slapped his thigh and sighed: "I originally had this plan, but the world was decided, and the people have not yet ......."

Wang Xiang's face pulled: "Your Majesty, what do you want to do......" After more contact with Li Er, he has long lost his original awe, and Li Er's attitude towards him has gradually changed, sometimes the two are more like friends, or old friends.

dared to pull his face in front of Li Er, Wang Xiang was the only one, and Chen Gui was shocked to see it.

"Ahem...... Chen Gui, you go out and wait first, I have something to discuss with the Marquis of Jiayuan. (To be continued.) )
