Chapter 124: The heart of a child has not changed

Li Longji was a little puzzled, and said in his heart that Lu Yi is now in charge of supervising the minting of loot and Datang gold and silver coins, and he will report to himself separately on the daily process, what is there to say in the early court? He said casually: "Lu Qing is here." ”

"Your Majesty, the minting of Datang gold and silver coins has almost been completed, and a total of 700,000 Datang gold coins, 20 million Datang silver coins, and 18 million silver beans have been minted, which are several sets of new coins......"

Li Longji took a set of Datang gold and silver coins from Colliers's hand, played with them in his hand, and said in his heart that it was very good, what's the problem?

The minister of the Manchu Dynasty said in his heart, wow, there will be a reward on New Year's Day, and then you can make a fortune by casting private money, so happy, so looking forward to it!

Those who held the new coins in their hands were even more eyes shining, their brains were tinkling, and they were all the sounds of gold and silver coins.

An Fat Man is not angry in his heart, is this showing off? I'm not red-eyed, I, Fan Yang, can also mint coins, and I still use the money mold of the young eunuch.

Lu Yi continued: "That's the case, there is a craftsman in the money casting prison who feels that Datang is going to flood with bad money every three years, and it is difficult for Kaiyuan Tongbao to prevent counterfeiting. Therefore, when designing the Datang gold and silver coins, an anti-counterfeiting feature was added to them......"

Li Longji was surprised and delighted: "What anti-counterfeiting features?" ”

The ministers and magnates of the Manchu Dynasty had already begun to discuss privately, and a few of them were wide-eyed with gold and silver coins in their hands, but they found that there was nothing special except for the exquisite workmanship.

Lu Yi pinched the center of a silver coin with his thumb and index finger, blew the vertical edge of the silver coin hard, and said, "Your Majesty, please see, all the Datang gold and silver coins." Blow it this way. Put it next to your ear. You can hear a clear and long trill. ”

Li Longji and several courtiers tried to do so, and sure enough, they heard a clear and long trill, which was very good; Li Longji picked up another gold coin and blew it, a little quieter than a silver coin, but it was also long and clear.

Looking at the half of the courtiers below with a dejected look on their faces, and then looking at Xiao Quai's appearance that it was none of my business, how could Li Longji not understand that this was all Xiao Quai's idea.

The coinage was presided over by Xiao Quai, and I also said that he would be minted according to the appearance of Kaiyuan Tongbao. Xiao Quzhi persuaded me for various reasons that if I had to cast a solid one, it would be five coins a piece and one or two pieces.

It's good to know that you're scared!

However, what made Li Longji puzzled was that Xiao Quzhi knew that he would offend many people by doing this, why did he have to do such a thing?

Lu Yi continued: "In order to prevent the circulation of Datang gold and silver coins, some people minted a large amount of private money, resulting in the same amount of evil money as Datang gold and silver coins and Kaiyuan Tongbao.

The minister suggested that before the issuance of Datang gold and silver coins, the method of issuing notices and oral preaching should be used to announce several anti-counterfeiting features of Datang gold and silver coins to the public in advance.

Your Majesty decides! ”

Li Longji thought for a moment. smiled and cooperated: "If it's private money, can't it be blown up?" ”

Lu Yi took out a few evil coins from his sleeve and said, "Your Majesty, please see, this is half of the white copper added to each." Silver coins of lead and tin, the sound is either very small or not loud. ”

Li Longji smiled and looked at half of the courtiers with a bitter face, and became more and more happy, and took a few "evil money" from Gao Lishi with great interest, but it really didn't make a sound.

He laughed, looked around the entire hall, and said loudly, "What do you think Aiqing?" Is there anyone against it? ”

Li Linfu took the lead, and hundreds of courtiers said together: "The minister seconded the proposal." ”

Li Longji was very happy, because he saw that at least half of the courtiers gritted their teeth and seconded the courtiers who said nothing sincerely. Although Lu Yi played this matter, everyone must have understood in their hearts that this was Xiao Quai's idea.

In this way, Xiao Quai's illness is equivalent to offending half of the ministers and magnates of the imperial court, and it is when he has just been suppressed by himself.

This represents two meanings, one is that Xiao Quzhi really has no selfishness and no personal ambitions. People with personal ambitions will only do things that buy people's hearts, and they will not do such things that offend big guys.

Second, Xiao Quai's situation in the future will be even more difficult, Song Jing was besieged by the crowd because the crackdown on bad money was too harsh, and finally had to quit.

Song Jing is just a little more severe, but Xiao Quzhi almost cut off the possibility of bad money from the root this time. In this way, most of the powerful people and families will definitely be extremely harsh in their counterattack against Xiao Quai.

And now Xiao Qubing is sick and doesn't care about the soldiers, and King Wuwei doesn't dare to stand up to help him, Xiao Qubing wants to survive, and if he wants to do anything, he must be attached to me.

Moreover, what Xiao Qubing did was extremely beneficial to me and the country. Li Longji was a little stunned by his behavior of benefiting the country without self-interest and offending the nobles, and he didn't know what to say.

"Quasi-play!" Li Longji smiled and said, "What else does Lu Qing have to do?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, please see, every Datang gold and silver coin has His Majesty's portrait on it......"

When these magnates and ministers heard Dou Hua, a member of the Zhongshu House, read out the edict written by Li Longji himself, severely cracking down on those who melted the gold and silver coins of the Tang Dynasty without permission, dismissed officials, removed knights, confiscated their homes, and exiled, although they did not say a word.

But everyone knows that this is just the calm before the storm, and cutting off people's financial routes is like killing their parents, and Xiao Quai's move is tantamount to declaring war on the entire elite class. The consequences can be imagined!

Although An Lushan, who figured this out, was a little pity that he couldn't make a fortune by minting private money, he couldn't help but tremble with excitement when he thought that Xiao Qubing would face the anger and revenge of the entire Chang'an elite class alone.

At this time, the three sisters of the Yang family in Xuanyangfang, especially Yang Yuyao, the wife of the Kingdom of Qiu, were still immersed in the longing of making a windfall.

Thinking about what kind of tone he should use after Guo Si invited Xiao Quai, he elegantly put pressure on Xiao Quai, so that he had to give in, and there was not much time left until New Year's Day.

It's not good to persecute too much, after all, he is also Yuhuan's brother-in-law, and he is usually extremely deferential to his third sister, so he still has to save some face.

Yang Yuyao thought like this, and almost two moments later, Guo Si came back.

"What about Liang Guogong, you didn't invite it?" Yang Yuyao asked.

"Back to Mrs. Hui. Liang Guogong did not leave the palace after he went down to court. Privately went to the harem. Guo Si's expression was very wrong.

"Oh. Look at Yuhuan went. Yang Yuyao said disapprerovitically: "Then won't you continue to wait there?" ”

"It was Dr. Yang who came out of Wangxian Gate, saw the small one, and asked me to come back first after asking about the situation. Dr. Yang also said that he would come to his wife when he was busy with his business. Dr. Yang also said that the thing that Mrs. wanted could not be done. ”

The three ladies of the country were stunned for a moment, and after looking at each other, Yang Yuyao said, "What happened?" ”

Guo Si, as Yang Yuyao's henchman, naturally knows his wife. How eager he is to mint private money these days, he is a little nervous and said: "When Xiao Quzhi was designing the Datang gold and silver coins, he left an anti-counterfeiting mark, real money can be blown, but private money can't." This morning, he also asked someone to play His Majesty's decree, and the person who caught the gold and silver coins of the Tang Dynasty and minted private money was punished with a felony, and now the notice has begun to be posted throughout the city......"

When Guo Si reported all the news he had heard, Yang Yuyao was suddenly furious and said loudly: "Okay, you Xiao is sick." I call you good-looking! ”

Yang Yujun persuaded: "Third sister, this Xiao Qu's illness is not deliberately aimed at you. ”

"I don't care. He blocked my way of wealth, I will let him lose his official position and dismiss him, and dare to bully me, I want him to see that my Mrs. Qiuguo is not so easy to mess with. ”

There is one less way to make money, and Yang Yujun is also very disappointed in her heart, but when she heard the third sister say that Xiao Qubing bullied her for no reason, she couldn't help but slander in her heart, if it weren't for Xiao Qubing and the Anxi Army to defeat Da Shi in the river, our Datang would not have this wealth without this batch of gold and silver.

In the Zichen Palace, Xiao Quai's illness had already left, leaving only Li Longji and Yang Guifei sitting on the ebony tiger skin sofa and thinking, and Gao Lishi standing aside.

On the table next to him, there was a box of previously uneaten dim sum called cake that had been opened, which was extremely fluffy and was exuding an attractive aroma at the moment, but Li Longji and Yang Guifei did not have much appetite.

Xiao Quzhi was privately called to the inner hall by Li Longji this time, and naturally he was appeased, telling him to be patient for the time being, and to reuse it in the future.

Xiao Quzhi was also extremely obedient and had no complaints, and said that even if His Majesty did not summon him, he would enter the palace to visit his sister. Then he accompanied Li Longji to play a set of tai chi, and after exercising, as usual, he patted and massaged Li Longji's body.

Although it was also used in the massage techniques used by Master Chen Guohua after the special forces training, Xiao Quzhi did not use half of his dark energy this time.

This made Li Longji feel much more relaxed, but he did not have the feeling of being comfortable and lighter before.

Although it was the first time that this feeling was the most obvious, and the immediate effect was worse and worse every time, Li Longji could still feel it, his whole body was a lot smoother, and there was a feeling of crispiness and numbness.

But this time, he didn't feel that crispy and numb at all, and when he asked the reason, Xiao Quai's answer made Li Longji very disappointed:

"Your Majesty, the reason is very simple, it's like lighting a lamp, when the ministers taught His Majesty to practice this Tai Chi, it was like pouring new oil into an oil pot and lighting this lamp.

At first, it will always be very bright, but when the oil is getting less and less, the lights will get darker and darker, and the lights will naturally dry up when the oil runs out.

Unless Your Majesty can calm down, like Xiao Qi, and stand quietly for two or three hours every day without distractions, almost a year later, when there is progress, enter a new realm.

At that time, it is equivalent to filling the lamp with new oil again, and the lamp can be lit again. ”

It sounds very reasonable, and Li Longji can't tell whether it's true or not, but if you want Li Longji to stand on the pile for two or three hours a day without distractions and persist for a year, it is obviously impossible to do it.

Especially when Li Longji heard that the reason why Li Qi's injury could heal so quickly was that he treated it properly, and the other reason was that he stood on the pile every day, his qi and blood were different from ordinary people, and his vitality was more vigorous.

This made Li Longji even more eager and jealous, but his mind was full of all kinds of enjoyment and desire, and he couldn't do it without distractions at all, which made him feel like a cat scratching.

However, through Xiao Qu's illness, Li Longji knows a little more about Xiao Qu's illness and Li Qi, as Mr. Zong Xuan Wu Yun said, these two people are people who have no distractions and are like innocent people.

That's why Li Qi made such a fast progress, he could only pull a bow with one stone and eight buckets in the past, but now it is said that he can pull a bow with three stones and five buckets.

And the reason why Xiao Quzhi did not hesitate to offend the magnates of the Manchu Dynasty and fight against bad money was only for the good of the Tang Dynasty, just like his ambition: "Master gave me the word Fuchen, that is, let me go down the mountain to assist Your Majesty......"

"The minister's wish is just to make the Tang Dynasty more brilliant and powerful, and this wish has never ......changed."

"The minister is willing to become a sword in the hands of His Majesty, to sweep away all foreign enemies for the Tang Dynasty and His Majesty, and to make the whole world submit to the authority of His Majesty the Emperor of the Heavenly Khan, but if there are no ministers, the ministers are willing to ask for it for His Majesty......"

This reminded Li Longji of having such ambitions when he was young, and his mood at that time was as simple as this...... In an instant, such a thought inexplicably welled up in Li Longji's heart, and it flashed in his mind.

Is it too much to be so suspicious of Xiao Quai's illness and suppress him like this? (To be continued.) )
