When the emperor saw Yang Xun, he naturally remembered that he complained to him in the main hall a few days ago, saying that there were many princes and nobles who overspent and owed money to Taifu Temple. Although Yang Xun did not point out who it was, the emperor could guess a few points, so he immediately proposed to check the arrears of Taifu Temple at the court visit the next day.

It's been a long time since the inventory has been checked, so I guess it's a bit of an eyebrow.

He set his eyes on Pei Yaoqing, who was mainly responsible for the inventory, and asked with a smile: "Pei Qing assigned the household department to check the money owed to the Taifu Temple by the palaces and palaces, and now he has an eyebrow."

Pei Yaoqing immediately replied honestly: "Report to Your Majesty, the investigation has not yet been completed, but there is no big arrears, the cumulative arrears of the kings are no more than hundreds of thousands of dollars, and the household department is instructing them to return it."

This answer is different from what Yang Wei said when he complained, Li Longji swept his eyes towards Yang Xun, and his face showed a slight displeasure,

This look was enough for Yang Xun to panic, and in order to avoid the emperor's reprimand, he had to ask new questions to attract the emperor's attention.

He hurriedly stood up from the front of the case, bowed down and crossed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the minister wants to report and expose the prince's misconduct."

The emperor frowned in displeasure, but Concubine Wu Hui cast an encouraging glance at him.

With the backing instructions, Yang Wei said boldly: "In order to accumulate huge wealth, the prince held a polo tournament in Jinggongfang and summoned all the palaces to participate. On the bright side, he had fun with the people, and Guangfa invited Chang'an's parents to watch the game, but in fact, it was to collect money, and each invitation was marked with a price of thousands of yuan, and millions of money were collected in just one day. ”

As soon as Yang Huan finished speaking, Li Linfu, who was sitting near him, shook his head gently, Yang Huan did not tell the point, His Majesty will not be jealous, let alone angry.

Li Longji understood what was going on as soon as he heard it, the East Palace must have owed a lot of money to the treasury before, but the prince found a way to solve this account, ostensibly holding a ball game, and secretly using the game to make money, this method is quite clever, not like the prince came up with it.

He invited Chang'an rich people to participate in the ball game not to buy people's hearts, but to make money to pay off the debt, what is there to worry about?

I saw him pick up the wine and smile indifferently: "The childish son has no intention, and he actually does this businessman's thing, which is really not a proper business." ”

Yang Xun was stunned for a moment, this was obviously not the effect he wanted, His Majesty's reaction to the prince's accumulation of wealth was just this kind of reaction?

Before he came back to his senses, Li Longji said to Gao Lishi beside him: "Spread my will, Prince Xuan will come to Xingqing Palace Calyx Xianghui Building to see me." ”

Colliers stretched out his hand to summon a confidant eunuch, whispered a few words in his ear, and the eunuch hurried away.

Yang Xun's complaint seems to be just a small turmoil, and the banquet singing and dancing continued, but there were subtle changes in the hearts of everyone present.

Concubine Wu Hui was disappointed, worried, and helpless, she and her son-in-law Yang Xun racked their brains several times to find a way to slander the prince, but they were luckily avoided by the other party again and again, what does this mean? Is this a providence? Does the Mandate of Heaven really not belong to his son Shouwang?

Yang Wei is still struggling with the emperor's reaction, isn't the emperor of the Tang Dynasty not allowed officials to do business? Why is it my son's turn to be just a simple evaluation of not doing his job?

Li Linfu picked up the wine cup, and his smile was super high and superior. He thought in his heart, if he sued himself, how should he directly hit the emperor's psychology? Naturally, he wants to add another one to buy people's hearts behind the accumulation of wealth.

Zhang Jiuling and Pei Yaoqing have no other ideas, except that this strategy to accumulate wealth is indeed ingenious, the rest of Yang Xun's complaint is not to worry about, and it cannot shake the foundation of the prince.

……

The eunuch who delivered the decree came to the Xuande Gate of the East Palace, and the prince was doing the same thing with the emperor at this time, organizing singing, dancing and drinking, and commending the heroes who made money and repaid the debts at the banquet. Li Siye was naturally quite favored, and he was placed in the upper right position, indicating that there would be more rewards in the future.

The right prison gate led the guards to suddenly run over to report, saying that His Majesty had sent the inner eunuch, and the decree ordered the prince to immediately go to the Calyx Xianghui Building of Xingqing Palace to see the driver.

The prince was very frightened, and hurriedly dismissed all the singers and dancers, and asked everyone: "What does my father mean by summoning me into Xingqing Palace?" Will something change? ”

Some disgruntled people immediately said: "There is no impermeable wall, and Your Highness's use of competition to collect money must have been reported to Your Majesty." ”

"At the beginning, I said that this plan was unreliable, although I returned the money owed to Taifu Temple, but I left a reputation for His Highness to collect money in business, which made His Majesty even more displeased." After this person finished speaking, he also glanced at Li Siye in the first place with the corner of his eye, which means that Li Siye is not only useless, but also has a fault.

After the East Palace organized a polo match, Li Siye was privately designated by the prince as the first hero, although he was still only a thousand cattle from the seventh grade, but he was often called to his side to discuss things, and the treatment was more favorable than that of guests and officials such as Zhan Shi, how could these people not be blushing.

Li Siye smiled bitterly with the wine cup, sure enough, there are many popular people, it seems that he will have to be more low-key in the future, otherwise it will be a beautiful wood in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

Although the crown prince Li Ying was anxious, he was not a person who was not responsible at a critical moment, and waved his hand to everyone and said:

"Don't speculate yet, wait until I come back after entering the palace to face the saint."

The palace people who passed the decree were welcomed into the Lizheng Palace, and the eunuch was very strict-mouthed, and Li Ying asked his subordinates to make some money before revealing the emperor's mood and the situation at the scene.

Li Ying was mixed and followed the people of the Chuan Zhi Palace to Xingqing Palace.

The banquet in front of the calyx Xianghui Building continued, and Li Ying came to the imperial stairs and knelt down and saluted with crossed hands: "The sons and daughters pay tribute to their father." ”

The crown prince will not hide his emotions, although he keeps cheering himself up along the way, but when facing the emperor, his face is still slightly gloomy, maybe Li Ying has been like this for a long time.

Li Longji didn't like it when he saw it, and thought to himself, who are you hanging your face for?

The emperor didn't give Li Ying a seat, nor did he give him a few drinks and food, so he knelt on the ground empty. Li Ying was a little flustered in her heart, thinking that it was the sale of tickets for the polo match that annoyed her father, and she couldn't help complaining about Li Siye, who came up with the idea.

This person's ideas are too advanced and too bold to be used more in the future.

"I heard Yang Wei say that you invited a wealthy businessman from Chang'an to watch a polo match in Jinggongfang, and sold invitations to fill your pockets, but is there such a thing?"

When Li Ying heard this, she hurriedly kowtowed and confessed: "The son should die, and he shouldn't value business and profit and ignore the rules of the court." ”

Li Longji did not judge whether his behavior was right or wrong, but asked with interest: "You didn't come up with this idea, did you?" ”

When the prince heard this, he pondered it carefully, and the emperor didn't seem to want to blame him, so he felt relaxed in his heart, and bowed his head and said: "Father is wise, this plan comes from a thousand cows under the command of his son, and he also supervised the implementation from beginning to end. ”

"What is this man's name?"

"Li Siye, a native of Gaoling."

Yang Xun originally listened carefully to the conversation between father and son with a wine cup, but when he heard Li Siye's name, he was so shocked that he couldn't even hold the wine cup steadily, and almost spilled the wine.

Is this Li Siye sent by God to do right with me! How did I ruin my plan twice and three times! From the beginning of the demon case, to Luo Xing's frequent crimes, to the inventory of the treasury, everything was caused by him, causing the prince to escape the catastrophe.

Li Linfu watched coldly and noticed Yang Xun's gaffe, and suddenly felt curious in his heart, a small thousand cows can make Yang Xun so frightened that he can't even hold the wine, which is really an outlier.
