544.Chapter 544 - Necessary for Marching and Fighting
In the scorching summer, Tang Zhou had already finished writing the reform method he had written, and was making the final appraisal for Princess Danyang. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
After Princess Danyang carefully read what Tang Zhou wrote, she nodded with satisfaction: "The writing is very good, after you submit this, you will definitely get the approval of the imperial brother." ”
Tang Zhou smiled: "I don't care if I approve it or not, I just hope that he won't have to find trouble for me in the future, Your Royal Highness the princess, you don't know, I still have to lie in the study to write this on such a hot day, it's very hot." ”
Princess Danyang glanced at Tang Zhou and said, "You got cheap and behaved, if you didn't have this ability, do you think the imperial brother would casually leave this matter to you?" The salt and iron envoys used to be the prime minister, so you, just steal the fun. ”
When the two were talking like this, Shuangxi suddenly ran over in a hurry: "Her Royal Highness the Princess, the little marquis, Xia Fan has found it, and said that the little marquis of the Holy Lord Xuan has entered the palace." ”
Hearing this, Tang Zhou smiled bitterly: "Summoning me in such a hurry, I'm afraid that the Holy Lord will find something for me to do again." ”
Princess Danyang looked very cautious and asked, "Do you know what's going on?" ”
"I don't know, I only know that there is an urgent report from the border gate, and some ministers in the court have entered the palace."
Princess Danyang's eyebrows condensed slightly, the urgent report at the border pass, could it be that something happened at the border pass?
Princess Danyang was a little anxious and said, "I'll also go into the palace to have a look." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Zhou suddenly grabbed her and said, "I'll go first, and you will go later." ”
Saying that, Tang Zhou hurriedly left the princess's mansion, and Princess Danyang had already reacted at this time, although the two were already together, but in the eyes of the world, they hadn't yet, in order to avoid suspicion, it was best for her not to enter the palace with Tang Zhou.
The weather was very hot, Tang Zhou was already soaked when he hurried to the palace, he entered the imperial study, only to see that there were many Chao Chinese martial arts, as soon as he came in, Cheng Bingjin immediately greeted him, and a slap came to him: "Tang family boy, come, your opportunity to make meritorious service has come again." ”
Hearing Cheng Yanjin's words, Tang Zhou was a little puzzled, but he was relieved in his heart, if it was a bad thing, it would be impossible for Cheng Yanjin to talk to him like this.
Tang Zhou saluted Li Shimin and asked, "Holy Lord, I don't know why I summoned Weichen?" ”
Li Shimin glanced at the eldest grandson Wuji, and the eldest grandson Wuji immediately stood up and told Tang Zhou about their previous affairs, Tang Zhou's expression changed slightly after listening to it, and said: "So the saint means how the ministers will make the Ham Church's Torch Army?" ”
Li Shimin nodded: "That's right." ”
As soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, Tang Zhou already smiled bitterly, he still wanted to make money from this, he never thought that the ham factory had not yet opened, and Li Shimin took his secret recipe away first.
Before Tang Zhou could speak, Cheng Yanjin, who understood what was going on, suddenly stood up: "Holy Lord, this ...... I'm afraid this is a little inappropriate, it's better to let the court buy ......"
Speaking of this, Cheng Yanjin glanced at Li Shimin, and saw that Li Shimin's expression was different, but he couldn't say the following words again, and at this time, he finally regretted it, if he didn't talk too much, such a big profit would have been in hand, and now Tang Zhou wants to tell those Huotou soldiers the secret recipe, and they will not be the only ones who will make ham in the future.
"For my Tang Dynasty, the minister is willing to give the secret recipe." At the same time that Cheng bit Jin and closed his mouth, Tang Zhou suddenly stood up and said such a sentence, in fact, he knew very well that since Li Shimin was eyeing this, he, as a courtier, had no room for bargaining at all, in this case, it was better to make himself more righteous.
Sure enough, after Tang Zhou said this, Li Shimin's expression suddenly improved, and he said with a smile: "Okay, good, Tang Aiqing is worthy of being the pillar of my Tang Dynasty." ”
Tang Zhou smiled lightly, and then took out what he had written before, and said: "Shengshang, the minister found some problems after entering the Salt and Iron Division, this is the solution written by the minister, and please take a look at it, if the Shengshang thinks there is no problem, the minister will order someone to do it." ”
Everyone was still thinking about the ham, but they never thought that Tang Zhou suddenly pulled the topic to the Salt and Iron Division, Li Shimin was also a little curious, and took Tang Zhou's reform plan to see, after seeing this, he was suddenly shocked, and said: "Okay, good, Tang Aiqing just went to the Salt and Iron Division to make this great contribution, with your reform plan, my Tang Dynasty's salt production will definitely double." ”
......Speaking of this, Li Shimin suddenly hesitated, he really wanted to reward Tang Zhou, but after thinking about it, he didn't know how to reward Tang Zhou, reward him with money, he was not short of money at all, give him an official and a knight, this kind of thing is a little small, and it is a little difficult to add a knight.
Li Shimin hesitated for a moment and asked: "Tang Aiqing not only invented ham, so that my Tang sergeant can march without the worry of cooking, but now he has developed refined salt and streamlined the production steps of coarse salt, which can be described as a great achievement, I don't know what reward Tang Aiqing wants?" ”
When Li Shimin said this, he had a light smile on his face, but he was a little proud of his decision, according to Tang Zhou's reaction on the morning of his first return to the capital, he felt that today Tang Zhou must say that he should do these things again, and he should not be rewarded, and as long as Tang Zhou said this, he could take advantage of the situation and not reward, so that his problem would be gone.
But when Li Shimin was secretly proud, Tang Zhou suddenly said: "Shengshang, if you really want to reward Weichen, it is better to give the minister some salt, the minister's inn will need a lot of salt in the future, if you can buy it directly from the imperial court, you can also save a lot of money." ”
As soon as Tang Zhou's words came out, Li Shimin was dumbfounded, why didn't this kid play cards according to common sense, why was he so thick-skinned this time, and he really asked for a reward?
Li Shimin thought for a while, with Tang Zhou's identity, he could get salt without his consent, why would he ask for it in this way? Do you want to give yourself a step down?
Li Shimin didn't think much about it, thinking that this might be the reason, so he nodded: "Okay, I'm right." ”
Li Shimin can't disagree, his words have already been said just now, and Tang Zhou's performance today is indeed very good, if he is not allowed, he really can't say it.
After the monarch said this for a while, Li Shimin let the ministers leave, and after Tang Zhou and Cheng Yanjin left the palace, Cheng Yanjin was a little angry and said, "Tang family boy, are you stupid?" Waste a good opportunity to be rewarded, if you want salt, I can get it for you, why ask the saint for it. ”
Tang Zhou smiled: "Uncle Cheng is angry, I need a lot of salt, if we buy other salt merchants, it will definitely not be cost-effective, let's get salt by ourselves, it is easy to be criticized, saying that we are hoarding goods or something, so it is better to ask the emperor for it, so no one can say anything." ”
Originally, Tang Zhou was really hard to ask for this, but today Li Shimin asked him for the secret recipe for ham, and he also asked for salt, he believed that Li Shimin would definitely not refuse at this time.
