The East Palace, when Li Chengqian lived in it, was extremely prosperous here, with a racecourse, a tent for the Hu people, and countless beauties.

After Li Hong lived in the East Palace, it became a huge farmhouse yard, even in late autumn, there are still red peppers, red beets, green cabbage, tender yellow cabbage, and sorghum whose heads are dyed red.

The shallots had been dug up, and there were a lot of them, piled up in the storeroom, giving off a strong smell of shallots.

Li Hong opened a very large vegetable shop outside the East Palace, and the dishes in the shop are all new vegetables, in order not to compete with ordinary vegetable farmers, so the vegetables in this vegetable shop in the East Palace are sold very expensive, generally more than five times the price of the vegetable farmers in the West Market.

Even so, the people who come to His Royal Highness the Prince's vegetable shop to buy vegetables have always been a piece of the green, as long as the door is open every day, within an hour, there is nothing left in the vegetable shop.

Xu Jingzong's whole family eats the high-priced dishes here.

The whole family of Li Yifu eats the high-priced dishes here.

Many other families also wanted to eat the high-priced dishes here, but were sternly rejected by the officials of the East Palace, who were in charge of selling vegetables.

Everyone in Chang'an knows that this vegetable shop is the only source of income for His Royal Highness the Prince, and the income from his fief is now all kept in the hands of the Queen, so everyone likes to send a little pocket money to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince by buying vegetables.

Therefore, Li Hong is a poor prince, and the people of Chang'an know everything and know everything.

Therefore, when the people of Chang'an met the white dragon fish suit in the West Market to observe the people's situation and ask about the price of vegetables, meat, and grain, everyone who was asked was very enthusiastic.

I can't wait to tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince the secrets of his fortune together, so that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can run his vegetable shop better.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really good, I heard the shopkeeper say that he made money, if he was interested, he would even ask the shopkeeper for a glass of water and wine, and if he met someone who said that he was losing money, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would sometimes patronize the business of this store.

This doesn't mean how good His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is, as long as people see an imperial heir who meets their expectations, they are very satisfied.

Li Hong is a prince who really hopes that his father can live a long life, so he would rather bend down and start from the bottom, and then gradually understand this empire through a long period of study, and gradually control this empire.

If everything goes well, Li Hong doesn't mind letting his father spend his old age in advance, but this must be something that will only happen when he finds out that his father has become comatose due to old age.

What I have to do now is to straighten out everything, and when the time comes, as long as I say it, I will be able to ascend to the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

When Li Hong entered Dali Temple, the people of Dali Temple were waiting, but Li Hong ignored them, he came to Dali Temple just to find Di Renjie.

Although Dali Temple did not deal with the prince in the matter of Changsun Chong, the prince did not blame anyone in Dali Temple.

Not even a word of slander was uttered in front of the emperor.

As long as the court mentioned this matter earlier, the prince resisted without saying a word, even if the officials of the East and West Pavilions spoke more fiercely, the prince was quite spit on his own self-cultivation, and only said one sentence from beginning to end - unbearable.

I can't bear to think that there is no reason for these three words, and it is not in line with the spirit of the rule of law in the Tang Dynasty, but this is what the prince said, and if he does this, even if he is reprimanded by the emperor and punished by the queen, the prince still does not change his will.

Now, there is a high demand in the court for the exile of the eldest grandson Chong's family, but no one has said this in front of the crown prince.

After the prince came to Dali Temple to find Di Renjie several times, everyone understood one thing - Di Renjie was the prince's person.

That is, after understanding this matter, the officials of Dali Temple quietly changed in their treatment of Di Renjie.

"Find a way, Lone must stay in Chang'an and not go to Luoyang."

After entering Di Renjie's official office, Li Hong said his request.

Di Renjie, who had already considered this matter comprehensively, immediately said: "First take the position of Yongzhou Mu." ”

Li Hong frowned and said: "My fiefdom is in Taiyuan, and it is not good to migrate to Yongzhou." ”

Di Renjie sneered and said: "Taiyuan is a rich land, how can you give it up, it is natural to increase the official position of Yongzhou pastor." ”

Li Hong said: "How to operate appropriately?" ”

Di Renjie said with a smile: "After Yun Chu and the gentle return, after the earth-shaking changes in Chang'an City, it will be useful for the prince to ask for the position of Yongzhou Mu, otherwise, he will be a name like King Ji Li Shen." ”

Li Hong sighed and said: "Master, they are not there, I always feel that there is no backbone in my heart." ”

Di Renjie said with a smile: "The prince has done a very good job, so that the courtiers can see the prince's persistence, see the prince's words, and let His Majesty know the prince's determination to start from the bottom."

It also let the queen see how wise the next monarch of the Tang Dynasty is, and also let the queen see how her son cares about family affection.

These were sufficient, and the prince also preached his simple virtues to all the people.

Therefore, as long as the prince persists, your crown prince's position will be as stable as Mount Tai, and no one dares to compete with the prince. ”

Li Hong repeated what Li Xian said to the emperor and empress today.

Di Renjie smiled: "Does the prince care? ”

Li Hong shook his head and said, "I don't care, what I care about is that my father wants me to have filial piety." ”

Di Renjie sighed and said, "The prince should tell Yun Chu these words, not me." ”

Li Hong said strangely: "Is there any difference?" ”

Di Renjie smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, don't test me, if you continue to test me like this, a certain family will have to run away." ”

Li Hong rolled his eyes and said, "The master said that you are a very interesting person, but I didn't expect that you couldn't withstand the temptation so much." ”

Di Renjie sighed and said: "This is the disadvantage of being someone else's minister, they all know that they can't get close to each other, and they just want to participate in the affairs of other people's relatives, and many people play themselves to death in this way." ”

Today is in a bad mood, and Di Renjie can't be relieved here, Li Hong left Dali Temple in the farewell of a crowd.

As soon as Li Hong left, Zhang Wenjun, the secretary of Dali Temple, came to Di Renjie's official office, glanced at Di Renjie coldly and said, "Climbing the prince, it's really early." ”

Di Renjie said with a smile: "Di Huaiying has no roots and no bottom, if you don't hold a thigh again, I am afraid you will not be able to live forever." ”

Zhang Wenqian said: "It was supposed to be a cadre, but now it has become a lucky entry, even if it has a future in the future, it is not ambitious." ”

Di Renjie said with a smile: "You are the first person I have ever seen who can make the prisoner in the prison of Dali Temple, and after hearing that you are seriously ill, you can cry and pray for you in Dali Temple."

It is precisely with you who is the Zhengqing of Dali Temple that Di Huaiying has to find a backer, lest he not know who he offended that day, and then he will be put in prison and never see the light of day. ”

Zhang Wenqian said angrily: "Is it fake that the prisoners pray for the blessings of their officials? ”

Di Renjie said: "It's unreasonable, you can really do anything for the sake of fame now."

Also, don't fight the idea of Wannian County, don't look at you now as replacing the officials in Wannian County, but after Yun Chu comes back, it will be strange if those who killed the old subordinates of Wannian County can live.

By the way, Wang Mingyuan, who went to the Western Regions to convey his will, died in a place called Kang Poor Beach, and his body turned into a dried corpse, which became a signpost in that place.

You officials from the local government may not know that back then, there was an earth-shattering corruption eucalyptus in Wannian County, Yun Chu hung two of the corrupt officials on the lotus pond, and after making two white bones, they were handed over to the Tai Yi Department to make them look like bones, and now they are about to be touched out of the pulp by the officials of the Tai Yi Bureau, and they have become antique. ”

Zhang Wenqian said calmly: "Wannian County has not been inspected for five years, and this time it is necessary to conduct a serious and careful inspection.

A certain family heard that Wannian County issued a so-called bonus, and a small official could get eighty yuan of money, so greedy and lawless. ”

Di Renjie sneered.

Zhang Wenqian said angrily: "What are you laughing at? ”

Di Renjie said: "When spring begins, Yunchu will come back, no matter what, the people are the county commanders of Wannian County, and similarly, the county magistrates of Chang'an County will also come back."

Didn't you write to Your Majesty that these two people were greedy? Until now, can Your Majesty and even the two cabinets respond?

Xu Jingzong, why did Li Yifu keep silent about things involving Yun Chu? Could it be that they don't know that in 10,000 years, the two counties of Chang'an are two pieces of fat? ”

"He dares!" Zhang Wenjun was angered by Di Renjie's words, until now, he still didn't understand that a mere fifth-grade official could be lawless in Chang'an City to this point.

Seeing Zhang Wenjun leave angrily, Di Renjie couldn't help but sigh deeply.

Zhang Wenjun is not bad, Zhenguan was born in the Ming Jing Kejinshi, and successively served as a member of the army in the state, a member of the Ministry of Water, a member of the Yunyang County Order, a member of the Zhongshu She, and a scholar who moved to Zhongshu Lang and Dali Qing.

Before taking up the post of Dali Siqing, he had been serving as a local inspector and deposing envoy, and the position of Dali Siqing was the first position he held after entering Beijing.

The reason why this person was able to come up was that the emperor wanted to use his upright reputation and thunderous means to clean up the chaotic officialdom in Chang'an.

I don't know if this person didn't understand the emperor's intentions, or if he had been bribed, after taking office as the Zhengqing of Dali Temple, the first object he chose to open the knife was actually the famous Wannian County and Chang'an County.

The breakthrough in the purge of the officials of these two counties is the huge bonuses issued to the officials by the two counties at the end of each year.

After Di Renjie's persuasion failed, he let it go, and did not ask the prince for help, but just watched coldly, wanting to see what Zhang Wenjun was going to do.

At the same time, Di Renjie also wanted to know whether Yun Chu, Chang'an, who had been working hard for many years, could withstand this storm in the two counties of Wannian.

】

In Di Renjie's opinion, the official system in these two counties is a bit complicated and huge, and it is necessary to conduct a selection.

Now it's okay, Zhang Wenqian has come forward and started to select people for Yun Chu, and those who can bear it can be reused in the future, and those who can't bear it will be eliminated by taking this opportunity.
