Fang Xuanling shook his head: "Don't forget, Your Majesty is at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period. ”

In a word, concise and to the point.

Li Er is still in the prime of life, and what he needs is not a near-perfect prince to steal the limelight with him.

A wise emperor and a perfect prince are definitely not the best combination.

The right thing is really addictive, as long as it is contaminated, how many people are willing to give it up again?

Speaking of which, where is the position of the prince so good, too smart to attract jealousy, not too smart and disliked.

Many people feel that no matter how they say it, they are also father and son, and they always have some feelings.

But in the entire Tang Dynasty, including the Southern Tang Dynasty, there were more than 30 princes in total, but nearly half of them were either deposed or killed.

Therefore, the prince industry is really a veritable high-risk profession.

"His Royal Highness is at a young and vigorous age, and the old man is also worried that His Highness doesn't know how to hide." Fang Xuanling sighed.

Sometimes, he doesn't know whether Li Chengqian's growth is a good thing or a bad thing for Datang.

When Wei Zheng heard this, he smiled and said, "Okay, I know what you're worried about, isn't it good to be like this now?" ”

Although Wei Zheng only said half of the words, Fang Xuanling still understood what he meant, and he just smiled bitterly at the moment and said no more.

As for Xiao Yu, what he can't figure out, he will never open his mouth easily.

……

The Mansion of the State of Qi.

When the eldest grandson Wuji came back, he locked himself in the study.

Although he can see it clearly, he can't figure out some questions, it stands to reason that he has already reminded Changsun Chong, but why is this still happening? On this question, he pondered all the way.

According to the current situation, Li Chengqian's position as the crown prince is as stable as Mount Tai.

In other words, if nothing else, two hundred years after Li, the Tang Dynasty will be Li Chengqian's.

No matter how you look at it, Li Chengqian has no reason to condone Li Yuanjing.

Like Li Er, he couldn't figure out what strategic buffer Li Chengqian wanted.

It's not that he can't understand that Li Chengqian is guarding against Li Er.

He really understands this.

Even if he is Li Er's brother-in-law, he still understands the truth that a companion is like a tiger.

What he can't understand is that Li Chengqian doesn't know that if he ascends the throne in the future, how tricky it will be for a country like Li Yuanjing to appear?

Just to prevent his father, his uncle will not be on guard?

Let Li Yuanjing make the Great Zhao Wangting a fait accompli, and then if you want to reverse it, it will be difficult.

Don't look at him from the beginning to the end on Li Er's side, but if you say that after Li Er dies, of course he hopes that it will be Li Chengqian who will ascend the throne.

It's not that he and Li Chengqian are so close, but Li Chengqian's mother is his own sister, that's all.

Of course, he has more choices, after all, Empress Changsun is not only Li Chengqian's son.

That's why he's prepared for both.

But today, Li Chengqian's hand really didn't surprise him.

"Grandpa Guo." Just when the eldest grandson Wuji didn't understand after thinking about it, the servant knocked on the door and said, "The servant and Master Chu and their father and son ask to meet." ”

In the study, the eldest grandson Wuji was also stunned when he heard this.

Fang Xuanling came to the door, he could understand, Master Chu? Chu Liang?

What did they do?

But after a little thought, the eldest grandson Wuji smiled, and he understood.

"Have a good reception in the front hall, and the old man will go."

No matter what the reason for coming to the door, Fang Xuanling's face still has to be given.

Speaking of which, his friendship with Fang Xuanling was not bad in the past.

It's just that in recent years, Fang Xuanling has been pressing him, and he has always regarded Fang Xuanling as a catch-up goal.

In the final analysis, power is a thing that has an unparalleled attraction not only for emperors, but also for them.

"When a distinguished guest comes to the door, the old man is not welcome." Walking to the front hall, before entering the door, the eldest grandson Wuji said with a smile on his face.

"I've seen Qi Guogong." Chu Liang's father and son hurriedly bowed their hands.

Fang Xuanling also got up and said with a smile: "I happened to be passing by, and I happened to meet Brother Chu's father and son, and I happened to ask for advice, so the old man was cheeky and pulled him here." ”

In fact, he had just separated from Wei Zheng and the others, and not long after he went straight to the mansion of the eldest grandson Wuji.

As for Chu Liang's father and son, it was really a chance encounter, and he happened to have something to ask, so he pulled him over together.

"Here, prepare a table of good food and drink." The eldest grandson Wuji smiled, "Come, a few of you, please take a seat." ”

"Then I'm going to bother the auxiliary brother today." Fang Xuanling smiled and snorted.

The eldest grandson Wuji was clear in his heart, and he also smiled at the moment: "The distinguished guests come to the door, Peng Sheng is shining, how can there be any trouble, but I don't know how many people came to the door today, but there is something important?" ”

Although he has a clear heart, you have to expect him to take the initiative to speak, and that is impossible.

Chu Liang's father and son were really embarrassed, they knew a fart.

They were really pulled by Fang Xuanling halfway.

Chu Liang and Fang Xuanling are also old acquaintances, both of them are one of the eighteen bachelors, Fang Xuanling is still a servant, and Chu Liang is really not easy to refuse.

Of course, when it comes to Chu Liang alone, many people may be a little unfamiliar, but when it comes to his son, it is also famous, and his son is the political ally of the later eldest grandson Wuji, Chu Suiliang, who is also the fourth master of the early Tang Dynasty on the same level as Yu Shinan.

"It's nothing important, this is not Tugu Hun offended, I came to ask the auxiliary brother for advice." Fang Xuanling said, looked at Chu Liang's father and son, and said, "By the way, Brother Ximing once seemed to have been the secretary of Xihai County, right?" ”

Xihai County, which is now the area of Tugu Hun Fu Cheng.

When Chu Liang was an official in the former Sui Dynasty, because he was the East Palace Bachelor of the Prince Yang Yong at the beginning, but later Yang Yong was pulled off the horse by Yang Guang, although Chu Liang was not affected too much, after all, he was an official, relying on real talent and learning.

But this guy seems to be really unlucky, and Yang Xuangan, who is good friends with him, rebelled again not long after, and he is too upright, and often contradicts Yang Guang, who had ascended the throne at that time.

Therefore, Yang Guang directly kicked it to Xihai County at that time.

At that time, Murong Fuyun had not yet returned to the country, and Xihai County was still under the jurisdiction of the former Sui.

"Yes, Xia Guan did serve as a secretary in Xihai County at the beginning." Chu Liang gradually understood.

Eldest Sun Wuji just listened to this, he had already understood what Fang Xuanling meant.

"Then Brother Ximing still has an impression of Tuyuhunke?" Fang Xuanling didn't hide it, and asked directly.

There is the eldest grandson Wuji present, he asks this, there are no taboos.

If he was private, he really didn't dare to ask that.

"I wonder what the servant is asking?"

"People." Fang Xuanling continued to ask.

Hearing him ask, the eldest grandson Wuji also came to his senses.

Li Chengqian is very good at using ordinary people to make a fuss, Fang Xuanling's intention should not be too obvious.

Speaking of this topic, Chu Liang didn't rush to answer, but looked back at Chu Suiliang: "Dengshan, do you still have an impression?" ”

"Some impressions." Chu Suiliang had just guessed Fang Xuanling's intentions, and he had already prepared a draft in his heart at this time, and said, "Although most of the people in Tuyuhun ran away with Murong Fuyun at that time, there were still a lot of people left.

At that time, what impressed the lower officials the most was the peace of those people, as if they did not resist who ruled them, as long as they could have a place to live.

As for the resentment towards Murong Fuyun, Xia Guan didn't see it. ”

"That's normal, too." Chu Liang also thought about it when he heard him remind him, and said, "When Murong Fuyun ran away, he didn't leave with those people, which means that they were either abandoned, or their homeland was difficult to leave." ”

Fang Xuanling also nodded after hearing this, and after looking at the eldest grandson Wuji, he asked again: "I remember that Brother Ximing is still under Xue Ju's tent......"

Taking this opportunity, Fang Xuanling asked Chu Liang and their father and son to learn a lot about the situation in Tuyuhun.

No way, Chu Liang and their father and son are really a suitable candidate.

In the Ministry of Industry, Duan Lun was full of joy.

Whether it is Li Jing's good news or Tuguhun's offense, these have nothing to do with him.

He is now concentrating on doing a good job in the Ministry of Engineering.

Judging from Li Er's top rewards to Yang Wancai and Tao Mingyu, Li Er attaches great importance to technological innovation.

You must know that Chu Liang, as one of the eighteen bachelors, was only awarded the title of baron.

Tao Mingyu was only awarded the title of Earl for providing a complete law of steel filling, which is really a top reward.

Of course, everyone also understands that Tao Mingyu's title is just a means for Li Erqian to buy horse bones, but this also shows that Li Er attaches great importance to technological innovation.

Since Li Er values it, as a courtier, he naturally has to share his worries for the saint.

Immediately, Duan Lun called the officials of the Ministry of Industry to the public office for a meeting.

Before the meeting, he first told everyone about Li Er's reward for Yang Wancai and Tao Mingyu, they are all smart people, and when they heard the specifications of this reward, everyone instantly understood.

For a while, the top and bottom of the Ministry of Engineering seemed to be beaten with chicken blood.

Even those craftsmen were excited, and they saw new hope.

This also means that Datang's industrial innovation has officially begun!

It is true that there will be brave men under the great reward.

And when their Ministry of Industry took on a new look, the mansion of the Duke of Qi, Chu Liang and his son had also left.

Fang Xuanling took a sip of the freshly brewed tea soup and said with a smile: "I haven't come to sit in the house of the auxiliary brother for a few days, and this change is really not small. ”

As he spoke, he patted the armrest of the chair under his buttocks and said with a smile, "Well, in the past year, even the entire Datang has changed a lot.

Let's just talk about this chair, it must have swept the entire Tang Dynasty.

This change is silent......"

Hearing him say this, the eldest grandson Wuji smiled and said, "There are some changes, I don't know if Brother Xian thinks this change is good or bad?" ”

What does Fang Xuanling mean, it's not that he doesn't understand, but he doesn't dare to talk nonsense, what the future is, who knows?

How can he leave a handle on people?

Shaking his head, Fang Xuanling was silent, just glanced at the eldest grandson Wuji meaningfully.

The eldest grandson Wuji was also not afraid, and glanced at Fang Xuanling, and in an instant, the two of them felt like mirrors in their hearts.

"Hahaha." After one glance, both of them laughed at the same time.

"Okay, I've been delaying the auxiliary machine for a long time today, and the old man is going to leave." After laughing, Fang Xuanling got up and said.

Seeing this, the eldest grandson Wuji also hurriedly got up and said, "If there is, Brother Xian is busy with official business, then I won't stay longer." ”

After Fang Xuanling left, the steward of the eldest grandson's family came up and said, "Lang Jun, what is the trouble with this servant today?" ”

"Where?" Hearing this, the eldest grandson Wuji smiled and said, "It's not anything, he's just uneasy in his heart and came to find the answer." ”

"Answer?" The steward was stunned when he heard this, he had been in the eldest grandson's house for some years, and he spoke casually, so he asked, "What answer does he want to find in our house?" ”

If it weren't for the Qi State Mansion, he wouldn't have asked this.

"Okay, it's none of our business." The eldest grandson Wuji also knew his thoughts, and said at the moment, "Don't worry about these things, I have been working hard recently, and I care more about the things in the workshop, especially the ironsmith workshop."

Do you remember that Tao Mingyu before?

Your Majesty today has rewarded an earl for the method of filling steel for him, do you understand what this means? ”

"Tao Mingyu? Earl? The steward was stunned for a moment, but soon, he also reacted and said, "This shows that Your Majesty has begun to pay attention to craftsmen?" ”

"Not a craftsman." Eldest Sun Wuji shook his head, "It's the craftsmanship, the craftsmanship of the Ming Dynasty has indeed brought a lot of pressure to His Majesty, but this is also a good thing for us."

To be precise, this is a good thing for Datang.

After all, no matter what, the progress of craftsmanship is not a bad thing. ”

After speaking, the eldest grandson Wuji also looked at the chair he was sitting on, and chuckled, "It's really a big change......

The steward couldn't understand, but there were many things that he didn't need to understand, and when he heard the eldest grandson Wuji say this, the steward thought for a while and said, "Then should we train some more craftsmen?" ”

"What can be cultivated is naturally cultivated." The eldest grandson Wuji said, "For a long time in the future, Your Majesty may attach great importance to craftsmen, but again, craftsmen alone are not enough, if you want to get a piece of the pie, you still have to start with craftsmanship." ”

"If you want to talk about craftsmanship, it's a pity for Tao Mingyu." The steward said, "He was discovered first by our Guogong Mansion. ”

Waving his hand, the eldest grandson Wuji said: "Don't talk about this, Tao Mingyu is not something we can touch."

You remember, there are some things we can do, but there are some things that we can't do, such as what Tao Mingyu mastered.

This thing, although we do it will not have much impact for the time being, but who knows in the future?

Even if we do make breakthroughs in some processes in the future, we have to do the same as this time, understand? ”

After hearing this, the steward immediately nodded, he understood what the eldest grandson Wuji meant.

"Then I'll get busy first."

After he left, the eldest grandson Wuji walked out of the front hall, looked in the northwest direction, and said to himself: "I really don't know what you want to do, but you are targeted by Fang Xuanling, and I am afraid that the rest of your life will not be so good." ”

Yes, Fang Xuanling has his eyes on Li Chengqian.

It's not that he wants to do anything to Li Chengqian, but some of Li Chengqian's intentions have been exposed.

Fang Xuanling didn't say a word of nonsense just now.

The key is that it is not terrible for Fang Xuanling to be targeted, what is terrible is that Li Er will definitely do it by Fang Xuanling.

After all, as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he didn't want his empire to be infiltrated by others like moisturizing things silently.

As for why he didn't say anything.

Hehe, don't forget, he is now on Li Er's side.

Li Er hasn't said anything yet, he's in a hurry.

And he also knows that Li Er will not express his position, no matter what, Li Er is still Li Chengqian's father.

Just like he is Li Chengqian's uncle, he will not express his position easily.

"Grandpa Guo......" At this moment, the servant walked in again, "There is a prayer post." ”

"Is that him?" After taking the post, the eldest grandson Wuji was stunned, this guy's movements are really fast enough!
