After eating too many tea eggs, Li Shimin ate two and didn't eat any more, and ordered the palace people to send the remaining tea eggs to the Lizheng Hall and the concubines in the harem.

The recitals in the middle of the court were piled up in front of him, and a little eunuch handed over a bunch of recitals, "Your Majesty, these are all sent by Zhongshu Province." ”

Even if the courtiers impeach again, Li Shimin thought that the chapters that should be reviewed still had to be reviewed, and the political affairs that should be handled still had to be dealt with.

Thinking that Zhang Yang went out for a winter trip today, he also alarmed the Zhichong Mansion in Longshouyuan, so thinking about it, Li Shimin's heart became more and more unhappy, I was so busy here, I couldn't even go out for the winter, this kid was still so leisurely.

In fact, when Zhang Yang passed by Longshouyuan with a group of children, the palace received the news as soon as possible.

But it's just a family out to play, and the DPRK doesn't care about it.

Thinking that Zhang Yang is a normal person after all, people will go crazy if they are locked up in one place all the time, and it is normal for people to come out to play.

The first time that the Zhichong Mansion was released, and it was only informed afterwards.

Li Shimin didn't have the leisure to take care of these trivial matters, and the recital in front of him had not yet been approved, and now another batch was sent.

Thinking of giving Zhang Yang a Taifu Siqing and letting him live such a quiet life, is it too cheap for him.

Zhang Yang is living more and more comfortably.

Li Shimin felt that it was unforgivable for him to live such a comfortable life at a young age.

The emperor's life is not good, and he doesn't want others to be too comfortable.

Especially when the emperor wanted to build a Daming Palace, he was scolded by the Manchu officials led by Wei Zheng, and Li Shimin was already angry.

Why is this Zhang Yang more comfortable than me, it is intolerable.

His Majesty reviewed the recital with a gloomy face, and he didn't know what the emperor was thinking at this moment, and the prince also stood quietly with his head down.

The little eunuch who pursued enthusiasm on the side said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the people from Zhongshu Province said that the music just sent has the music of Lishan County, and it is said that there is a matter of Taifu Temple. ”

"Heh, in the summer, I thought that he, the Taifu Temple, would always write the recital, but I didn't expect to see him send the recital again in the autumn, but this idle winter sent the recital."

Li Shimin rummaged through the pile of concerts in front of him, and from the middle of the first to take out the concerta of Taifu Temple, the concerts sent by Taifu Temple are a rare thing.

Others follow the rules when they are Taifu Siqing, but Zhang Yang, Taifu Siqing, can always find some strange problems.

Li Shimin opened the chapter and looked at the questions on the chapter, and took a closer look at the description of the weather in Taifu Temple.

Zhang Yang's handwriting is not neat, and it doesn't look good, but it can be discerned what is written on it, since the Han Dynasty, climate change has mostly affected the cultivation of Guanzhong, and Guanzhong has been reduced year by year due to climate and water and soil changes.

Because the climate is still good in recent years, suitable for farming, the acres of arable fields in various places have decreased, but the harvest per mu has risen by two percent, and the land barrenness in the northwest has intensified, and there are longyou winds and sands from time to time......

Please ask Your Majesty to allow Taifu Temple to build a meteorological residence to predict the time of day and prevent droughts and floods in various places.

Since ancient times, the people have taken food as the sky, and I hope that Your Majesty will agree.

After reading this recital, Li Shimin said in a low voice: "Go and call Cen Wenwen." ”

The little eunuch was overjoyed when he saw this, and immediately replied, "Oh." ”

The look of the little eunuch was seen by the prince, and in order to attract His Majesty's attention, these little eunuchs would always go around with the officials to inquire about something.

It's just a momentary eye, Your Majesty will not be distracted by these little eunuchs' behavior, no matter how hard these eunuchs try, they will not gain Your Majesty's trust.

Because they don't know that eunuchs and relatives have always been hidden dangers in the court, and the beginning and end of the Han Dynasty is the potential for relatives to seize power, as well as Dong Zhuo's rebellion.

The aggressiveness of these little eunuchs will not be appreciated by His Majesty, nor will he be taken seriously.

After a while, Cen Wenwen hurriedly came and bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty." ”

Li Shimin drank the tea in the bowl, "Look at the music of Taifu Temple." ”

The prince handed over the recital of Taifu Siqing.

Cen Wenwen took it with both hands and looked at it, and then replied: "Your Majesty, this piece has been reviewed by the Zhongshu Province, and when it was first reviewed, Zhao Guogong, Tang Shanzhi and others were quite opposed. ”

"Really?" Li Shimin asked again.

"Zhao Guogong means that the things within the Taifu Temple have not been done well, and the original fruit and vegetable planting strategy has not yet been completed, how to make people believe in the Taifu Temple."

Li Shimin stroked his beard and said: "What the auxiliary machine said is also reasonable. ”

Cen Wenwen said: "However, when Zheng Gong and others were discussing, they also consulted the files of the Ministry of Households, as Taifu Temple said, the arable fields in Longyou are indeed decreasing year by year, but the grain yield per mu in the southeast of Guanzhong has indeed increased, not as much as Taifu Temple said, and now it seems that there is still one percent." ”

The prince refilled a bowl of tea for His Majesty, and Li Shimin said: "In this way, what does Zhang Yang mean when he is worried about the increase in yield per mu, but the decrease in acres? ”

Cen Wenwen said in a low voice: "Tomorrow, the minister will go to the wine field in Lishan to inquire, and he can ask Zhang Shilang at that time." ”

Hearing him say this, Li Shimin himself almost forgot that Zhang Yang was still a waiter in Zhongshu Province.

Unknowingly, the current Zhang Yang is not only the waiter of Zhongshu Province, the official position of the waiter of Shangshu Province is still on him, and he is also the Taifu Siqing.

This kid has more and more official positions.

Not long after, another eunuch in front of the palace came to report, "Your Majesty's Ministry of Rites Shangshu Xu Jingzong is here." ”

Seeing this, Cen Wenwen bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has retired first." ”

Li Shimin nodded slightly.

When Cen Wenwen withdrew from the Ganlu Temple, he put aside the recital of Taifu Temple, and did not approve or give Taifu Temple an accurate answer.

Xu Jingzong stood outside the Ganlu Hall in his official uniform, watched Cen Wenwen come out, and said with a smile: "Cen Shilang is still as diligent as ever. ”

Cen Wenwen's footsteps stopped for a moment, "Your Majesty is diligent in government, and we should also be diligent." ”

"What Cen Shilang said is good, and the old man thinks the same."

Cen Wenwen frowned and watched Xu Jingzong walk into the Manna Palace, this person only took six years to sit from the waiter of the Ministry of Rites to the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

In the future, there may be promotions, and the battles in the court are intensifying, and the Ministry of Rites has always been at the center of the struggle.

Glancing at the silent Manna Hall, there is a sense of oppression when I stand here.

It's so quiet here, even the guards and palace people are careful to breathe.

Cen Wenwen turned and walked towards the Chengtian Gate to the south.

Xu Jingzong stepped into the Ganlu Hall and talked about the construction of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, according to the previous arrangement of the Ministry of Rites, the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate was built in Goguryeo, and it was on the riverside.

When His Majesty asked the reason for doing this, Xu Jingzong bowed and said: "Your Majesty, after Zhang Da'an came back from Goguryeo, he repeatedly talked about the river separating Goguryeo and Liaodong, and also submitted his policy to Zhongshu Province several times, but he was all beaten back. ”

Speaking of this incident, as well as the eldest grandson Wuji's target, Xu Jingzong was indignant, "Your Majesty, Zhang Da'an went to Liaodong for three years, and went to conquer Goguryeo, and now he is the person who knows Goguryeo best, and only by controlling this river can he really control Goguryeo." ”

Li Shimin said with a smile: "I appreciate Da'an, and I also appreciate a courtier like you, so I will let the court and the central government reconsider." ”

"The expositions of the Andong Protectorate are all in play, and I would like to ask Your Majesty to take a look."

Li Shimin's eyes were still on the opening of government schools and teaching support, but he just said: "I will see it." ”

It seems that His Majesty has no intention of asking about these things, and Xu Jingzong also felt that it was not good to ask too much, so he bowed down and retired.

The struggle between the Ministry of Rites and the eldest grandson Wuji will not end for a while, and it will continue to fight in the future.

If you are dissatisfied, if you ask again, the eldest grandson Wuji will also shout loudly: The old man is also doing this for the sake of Datang Sheji.

His eldest grandson Wuji, so to speak, isn't it true that our Ministry of Rites is also for the sake of the community?

Thinking of His Majesty's lukewarm attitude, Xu Jingzong walked all the way and thought of the original days.

At that time, he lived with the King of Hejian County, His Royal Highness the King of Wei, and Zhang Yang when they were boiling tea eggs in the Ministry of Rites.

At that time, it was really free and comfortable.

Now, Li Baiyao has returned to his hometown, Zhang Yang has lived in Lishan for a long time and no longer cares about political affairs, and the king of Hejian County has also gone to Lishan.

At that time, there were a few people in the Ministry of Rites, and they were left alone.

If Zhang Shangshu is in the court now, he can't help his eldest grandson Wuji to be rampant.

As he was walking, he happened to meet His Royal Highness the Prince, Xu Jingzong bowed and saluted: "His Royal Highness the Prince, is this coming back from Chongdefang?" ”

Li Chengqian smiled kindly, "Lone went to listen to Fang Xiang's explanation of the policy in Chongde Fang today." ”

After Zhang Yang's guidance, today's Chongde Fang is full of scholarly and political policy atmosphere, and many talented people from all over the Central Plains have gathered in Chongde Fang, which once overshadowed the Hongwen Museum.

In this way, Li Chengqian is very satisfied with the current change.

Xu Jingzong's footsteps were very fast, and he just said hello and left in a hurry.

Walk out of the Chengtian Gate, then leave the Suzaku Gate, and walk from the east side of Suzaku Street to the Diplomatic Yuan of the Ministry of Rites.

At this moment, Li Yifu was talking to a court official in front of the door, "He Zhao Guo's official affairs are aimed at our Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Rites has made few meritorious contributions?" Zhao Guogong kept saying that it was for the sake of the society, not for his own power, Zhao Guogong deceived people too much! ”

Several speech officials wrote down all the words of Li Yifu, and these speech officials would impeach Zhao Guogong.

At this moment, in the main hall of the Ministry of Rites, Zhang Da'an is telling Chu Suiliang about Goguryeo's writing, "The current Goguryeo is still using official script to write, and regular script has been used in various parts of the Central Plains for a long time, and it is said that Goguryeo should also use regular script." ”

The policy of indoctrination begins with the same article, which is indeed a good practice.

Chu Suiliang also has his own worries, "If the Goguryeo people are already accustomed to official scripts, will it be too difficult for them to use regular scripts again?" ”

Zhang Da'an shook his head, "It's not difficult, there are very few people in Goguryeo who can write, it's not that it's difficult to let them rewrite regular script, but now is the best time to let them write the same text." ”

Chu Suiliang saw that Xu Jingzong was back, and said, "Yuan Gai Suwen will be executed this afternoon, does Xu Shangshu take a look?" ”

"I'm not going." Xu Jingzong strode from the main hall into the inner courtyard of the Foreign Affairs Academy.

The Ministry of Rites was very busy, there were many people coming and going, there was civil strife in Tibet, several old nobles in the Western Regions were fighting again, or the Uighurs won the northern expedition, and then the Uighurs changed four khans in two years, and the barbaric Uighurs decided who would be the khan by force.

So much so that the Ministry of Rites rewrote the account of the successive Uighur khans again and again.

Moreover, there are thousands of miles of frozen ground near the Tianshan Mountains, and countless flocks of horses and sheep have frozen, hoping that the Heavenly Khan will give them some help.

These matters had to be reported to the DPRK and China through the Ministry of Rites.

As soon as Xu Jingzong sat down, he was going to solve these complicated affairs with Zhang Daxiang.

In the room at this moment, a stove is boiling water, and Zhang Daxiang stroked his beard and said, "Have you already seen Your Majesty?" ”

"Hmm." Xu Jingzong nodded, looked at the files in front of him, and suddenly asked again, "Is there any news from Pei Xingjian in Persia?" ”

Zhang Daxiang sighed: "I sent people over in the summer, and I only came back in the autumn, and I heard that the messenger has arrived in the Hexi Corridor now, and the news can be delivered in most of the past two days." ”

Pei Xingjian didn't know what the situation was in Persia, and his news was cut off for a year, and sometimes he was worried about his life or death.

The winter in Guanzhong is very cold, there are not so many pedestrians on Suzaku Street, the pedestrians on the street are in a hurry, and the cold wind blowing in the face penetrates people's hearts, as if everyone is in a hurry, and no one wants to stay too long in the cold winter.

And in the afternoon of this day, there were not many pedestrians on the street, and in front of the Chengtian Gate, an official was reciting the indictment of Yuangai Suwen, and the pedestrians on the street just listened to it and hurried again.

People don't know who this person who was escorted up is, and at this moment, Yuangai Suwen has a messy hair.

In addition to Yuangai Suwen who was escorted from Goguryeo to Chang'an, there was also the king of Goguryeo.

The only person who came to see the beheading of Yuangae Suwen today was the King of Goguryeo, and he had been waiting here early in the morning, waiting for the day when Yuangai Suwen would die.

The Goguryeo king, who had always been poor at words, finally smiled when he saw Yuan Gai Suwen's embarrassed appearance.

The original King of Goguryeo was less than thirty years old, but in these days in Chang'an City, this King of Goguryeo has a lot of gray hair.

In Goguryeo language, Yuan Gai Suwen shouted and cursed the king of Goguryeo.

Until the knife and axe hand swung the knife down, the head of Yuan Gai Suwen fell to the ground.

The king of Goguryeo kept bowing to the Suzaku Gate and shouted loudly to thank the Heavenly Khan.

No one will sympathize with this Goguryeo king, and no one will feel that the death of Yuangai Suwen is a pity.

Not far from the execution ground, Li Chongyi, a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, watched from a distance as the heads on the execution platform were taken away by officials.

Li Chongyi is the most idle person in the Ministry of Rites, he is a child of the clan, his father is the king of Hejian County, and the whole Ministry of Rites treats him politely.

Songtsen Gampo was able to get close, but although Li Chongyi was a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, he was not very clear about the current measures of the Ministry of Rites.

Now Li Chongyi looked at the actions of the King of Goguryeo and frowned.

Songtsen Gampo asked, "Does Yuangai Suwen have to die?" ”

Li Chongyi, who was over 20 years old, regained a free and easy smile, and he explained: "If Yuangai Suwen does not die, how will the Tang Dynasty govern Goguryeo in the future, and how will Baekje and Silla be discussed again?" After his death, his head was to be sent to Goguryeo to show the people of Goguryeo. ”

A wave of sadness rose in Songtsen Gampo's heart, "After the chaos, someone will die." ”
