Li Gen didn't go to comfort, and he was silent and bright.

Because at this moment, Li Gen couldn't find any words to comfort the two grieving men.

People are emotional!

People have memories!

Life is like a big river, sometimes quiet, sometimes crazy.

………

Two days later, the train arrived in Chang'an City.

The news of King Qin's canonization of the crown prince instantly detonated the entire Chang'an City.

The Eldest Grandson's Mansion.

The eldest grandson is Wuji, after listening to the words of the eldest grandson Chong.

The whole person is like a fool.

Cheng Qian stayed in Luntai City to manage the land of the Western Regions.

And, His Royal Highness the King of Qin, who he regarded as a thorn in his eye and a thorn in his flesh, was the eldest son of the emperor.

He was canonized as the crown prince by His Majesty!

Years of hard work and hard work have been put into a torch.

The eldest grandson Wuji knew that it was over, and this time it was completely over.

Once there is no protection of the queen's mother, the future prospects of the eldest grandson are worrying.

Let the eldest grandson Wuji, what he didn't expect was.

The new crown prince presided over the government for the first time.

Unexpectedly, the eldest grandson Wuji went to court.

Taiji Palace, Xiande Palace.

Li Gen, who is dressed in a prince's costume and wears a crown prince's crown.

Set foot in the Hall of Virtue.

"Ministers, see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

The voices of the officials have never been louder.

Because more than half of these hundred officials are students of His Royal Highness the Prince.

Seeing the division commander, he sat on the dragon chair.

The mood of everyone can be imagined!

Without the division commander, they would not be where they are today.

Without a teacher, it is difficult for them to have the opportunity to study in this life, and stepping foot in the court is not something they can imagine.

"Zhongqing, don't be polite!"

Li Gen looked around the court, with a bright smile on his face.

Familiar faces appeared in front of Li Gen's eyes.

At this moment, Li Gen's sense of accomplishment and pride was also bursting.

Prime Minister Ma Zhou cried several times.

Many of the officials from the Champion Academy also had red eyes.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this palace will preside over the government from today."

"Seeing that there are young talents in the court now, this palace is really happy."

"Today's court meeting, the palace thinks that those old ministers should be invited to discuss together."

The reason why Li Gen is like this is naturally to take care of the face of many old ministers.

At the same time, it is also to show respect for many old ministers.

After all, Li Gen has always been grateful to Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others.

With Li Gen's order, Li Delu, the chief of the chamberlain, immediately began to send people to pass the edict according to the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince, all the old ministers.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, the eldest grandson Wuji, and the prince's father-in-law Wei Zheng are all among the edicts.

Li Shimin originally planned to keep the crown prince, the prince and the prince, and the prince and the prince for the prince.

However, Li Shimin asked Fang Xuanling about Du Ruhui.

Both shook their heads in refusal.

"Your Majesty, the crown prince's martial arts are unparalleled in the world. Why do you need to be taught by your ministers? ”

One word.

made Li Shimin give up his plan.

Indeed, in this world, there is really no one who can be the prince and the prince.

The eldest grandson Wuji was in a bumpy mood along the way.

The new crown prince presided over the government, and on the first day, he announced himself.

Let the eldest grandson be unscrupulous, how can he be at ease.

The eldest grandson Wuji walked to the door of the Xiande Palace, carefully sorted out his clothes, and stepped into the Xiande Palace.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others have also arrived.

Moreover, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui actually sat in the hall.

"Come, give me a seat!"

Li Gen looked at the eldest grandson Wuji, smiled and nodded.

Command the chamberlain to give a seat!

"Minister, thank you His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for the seat!"

The eldest grandson Wuji was nervous and sat next to Du Ruhui.

Subsequently, Wei Zheng and others set foot in the Hall of Xiande and were also given seats.

"Come on, serve tea to all the old ministers......"

Li Gen's voice landed, and the eldest grandson Wuji chuckled in his heart.

In his opinion, serving tea at this time is definitely not a good omen.

Because His Majesty has been on the throne for many years, except for that year, the prince in front of him made a new tea, which made His Majesty happy.

Except for drinking with the ministers in the Xiande Palace, there is rarely a precedent for drinking tea in the court.

It turns out that the eldest grandson Wuji really thinks too much.

"Secretaries, old ministers, ......"

"This palace, the reason why I sent an edict to all the old ministers today and came to the Hall of Virtue is because there are several important things that need to be consulted for everyone's opinions and suggestions."

"All the old ministers, all of them have made great achievements for the Tang Dynasty, and many of them followed their father to fight in the south and the north."

"When I was young, I used to look up to all the old ministers, and regarded them as heroes and role models."

"I am very happy that I can sit here and gather with you all today......

Li Gen's words were heard in the ears of everyone.

Ten people have ten different understandings and speculations.

"Zhongqing, the reason why this palace is today is so fanfare."

"Because, tomorrow is the New Year's Eve, the palace is in charge of the government at the beginning, and it will be the master once, and the morning dynasty of tomorrow's New Year's Eve will be exempted, and the ministers will accompany their families."

"Tomorrow night, at the gate of Suzaku and on Suzaku Avenue, the palace will send people to set off fireworks for more than an hour, and at that time, the secretaries can bring their family scrolls to watch and have fun with the people......"

"After the Zhengyuan Festival pilgrimage meeting, on the sixth day of the first lunar month, the new year's pilgrimage meeting will begin......"

Li Gen's voice landed, and the ministers saluted and shouted.

"Your Highness Shengming, Your Highness Shengming!"

This made the eldest grandson Wuji's face change suddenly.

Your Highness Shengming?

Could it be that the ministers have already discussed it in advance?

The word Shengming can only be used on His Majesty.

In the past, when Cheng Qian presided over the government, the ministers all called it that His Royal Highness was wise.

The situation is stronger than the man.

The eldest grandson Wuji naturally did not, and above the court, he objected to this.

Next, the prince's words made everyone's eyes widen, and one by one they were as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and they were full of energy.

"Zhongqing, the train from Luntai City to Chang'an City has finally opened, and everyone here basically took the train to Luntai City, and then returned to Chang'an City......"

When he said this, Li Gen's eyes swept over the eldest grandson Wuji, making the eldest grandson Wuji tense.

Because he was the only one in the Hall of Xiande, he didn't get on the train to go to Luntai.

"The speed and convenience of the train have been felt and experienced by all the secretaries."

"This palace thinks that the territory of the Tang Dynasty is vast, and it is far from enough to have this railway line......

"The preliminary idea of this palace is divided into three steps!"

"The first step, the construction of the railway from Chang'an City to Luoyang City, connecting Chang'an City and Luoyang City, is the first step, and it is also the most urgent and important step."

"The second step is to take Luoyang City as the transfer station of the Datang Railway, build it to the east coast, build it to Jingzhou to the west, and build it to Yangzhou ...... south."

"In the third step, the railroad tracks must continue to go north and south, and must go northeast to Liaodong and south to the south of Lingnan......"

Li Gen's voice landed.

The entire Hall of Virtue was silent.

At this moment, even the eldest grandson Wuji wanted to shout, His Highness was sage.

Because of this planning, even a pig can think of what Datang will become in the future.

Once the railway line extends in all directions, all of you here, travel the world and all parts of Datang, and it is no longer just an empty word!

Looking at the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, they all had excited expressions.

Li Gen had a big smile on his face.

"Your Highness, it is good to build a railway like this, but the steel output of Datang is ......."

Fang Xuanling said almost tremblingly.

Fang Xuanling naturally knew that once the prince's idea came true, all parts of the Tang Dynasty would be closely connected, and everything would become a cloud of the past.

The delivery of various materials will be more convenient, and if there is a disaster on one side, relief materials will be delivered to the disaster area as soon as possible.

There are too many conveniences that can be described clearly in just a few words.

"Uncle Fang, it makes sense!"

"At present, to realize the Datang Railway in all directions, steel production is indeed the top priority."

"This is also one of the reasons why this palace has summoned all the old ministers today to come to the Hall of Virtue."

"The palace intends to set up eight major steel mills in Chencang, (note: now Baoji), Handan, Luoyang, Andong, (note: in the territory of present-day Anshan), Zhuojun, Jiangcheng, (now Wuhan) Taiyuan and Lingnan, and set up eight major steel mills in Datang......"

"These eight major steel-making plants, plus the steel-making plants in Luntai City, are located in the southeast and northwest of Datang, of course, there are also Chencang and Taiyuan around Chang'an City, once they are operated according to the steelmaking method of the main palace, it is enough to support the rail casting of the Datang railway line."

"The most important point is that the eight major steelmaking mills selected by Hongu have all the ores needed for steelmaking locally, and they are all located in important places on the railway line, and the rails produced can be directly put into local or nearby use, saving a lot of transportation and labor ......."

"The palace has asked the transfer of the household department Shangshu and the two household servants, and now the treasury is full, whether it is money or food, it is enough to support more than three or five years!"

"In view of this, the palace intends that within the scope of the railway line planned by the palace, the local officials should mobilize the people and the whole people to participate in the construction of the railway, of course, the palace will not only exempt the local people who participated in the construction of the railway from paying taxes, but also give appropriate wage subsidies......

“………”

Li Gen spoke eloquently.

The entire Hall of Virtue has become a stage for him alone.

Hundreds of civil and military officials and many old ministers all listened attentively.

Everyone was impressed by His Royal Highness the Prince's plan.

The officials understood, no wonder the originally barren land of the Western Regions and the dilapidated Luntai City.

It can be transformed into a paradise on earth by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Vision

Be thoughtful.

Break

Be innovative.

Courageous, resourceful, courageous!

Talented, capable, courageous!

"Zhongqing, what do you think?"

Li Gen talked for a long time, picked up the teacup, took a sip, put down the teacup, and said with a smile.

"Ministers, obey Your Highness's instructions."

This time, even the eldest grandson Wuji was full of energy and shouted.

The loud shouts made the remnants of the Xiande Hall linger.

It also made Li Shimin and Empress Eldest Sun in the Lizheng Hall look happy.

Daxing railways and building eight major steel mills.

Last night, Li Gen had already gotten angry with Li Shimin and Empress Changsun.

Li Shimin and Empress Changsun were naturally happy and very supportive of Li Gen's work.

Li Shimin even expressed his position on the spot, asking Li Gen to do it boldly and confidently, and to send the edict to the old minister to arrange it.

If there are disobedient people, Li Shimin will personally go out to clean them up.

Li Gen also has one of the biggest secrets, which he has not told his father and mother for the time being.

It's better to wait until after the Shangyuan Festival to talk about this matter.

"Your Highness, I don't know what you can do?"

The white-haired Fang Xuanling stood up again and said to Shi Li.

"Uncle Fang has a heart, this palace really needs the help of Uncle Fang and others."

"Your Highness, even if you command, even if the old minister is full ......of liver and brain, he will not give up."

Fang Xuanling didn't know about this matter beforehand, and at this moment, Fang Xuanling was impressed by the prince's ambition and grand blueprint.

The elderly Fang Xuanling just wanted to do what he could while his old bones could still move.

After all, what the prince said is a thousand years of deeds for the benefit of future generations!

"Uncle Fang, please sit down, listen to what Bengong has to say, and then make a decision."

When Fang Xuanling heard this, he respectfully saluted and sat down.

"Zhongqing, the eight major steel mills planned by this palace will play an immeasurable role in the construction of future railway lines and the future prosperity and development of Datang."

"These eight major steel-making plants, this palace needs absolutely trustworthy and absolutely reliable people to go to the eight places to supervise, and also to work in various steel-making mills, each of the eight major steel-making plants needs a factory director and two assistants to assist."

"And these eight directors of the steel mill need to be highly respected and experienced, and this palace has been thinking about it for a long time, so I have to summon all the old ministers to come ......"

"Your Highness...... The old minister is willing to go to a place ......"

Fang Xuanling got up again and spoke.

"Uncle Fang, you sit down first and listen to what the palace has to say."

Li Gen said with a smile.

For Fang Xuanling three times and twice, if he interrupted himself, Li Gen naturally wouldn't mind and get angry.

There is no doubt that Comrade Lao Fang absolutely supports his work.

"Zhongqing, no matter who goes to the Eight Great Steelmaking Lands to supervise or assist in supervising, this palace will never treat you badly."

"After the completion of the construction of the Datang railway line, the palace will give a certain percentage of shares to the steelmaking mills in various places based on personal performance."

Li Gen is not painting a big pie, but a real idea in his heart.

Of course, this ratio must be within a controllable range.

Moreover, what is cashed out to everyone is definitely money or knighthood, after all, for a long time in the future.

Iron and steel will be a sought-after material for Datang.

"Your Highness, the old minister is willing to obey His Highness's dispatch."

As the father-in-law of the crown prince, Wei Zheng no longer plays a leading role at this time, which is really a bit unusual.

The matter of the eight major steel mills, last night, Wei Shuyu had already passed the gas with Wei Zheng in advance, and even the place had already been arranged.

"Father-in-law, are you willing to supervise a steel mill as well?"

"Your Highness, the old minister is idle in Chang'an City right now, while this old bone is still quite tough, try your best to do something meaningful!"

"If you can see everything Your Highness just said in this life, you will have no regrets in this life!"

"Goodness, Great Goodness......"

"My father-in-law has this idea, and this palace is very pleased."

"Father-in-law, you are old, and this palace will send Shuwan and Shuli to assist you."

Wei Zheng smiled and nodded, with his two sons, he could knock on Erlang's legs and drink tea leisurely every day.

However, according to Wei Zheng's temperament, he only thought about such a beautiful thing in his heart.

"Father-in-law, you are most familiar with Hebei Province, and this palace thinks that Handan in front of you can do twice the result with half the effort."

"Minister, obey His Highness's instructions."

There is naturally a reason why Li Gen did not let his father-in-law go to Chencang and Taiyuan, which are closer.
