His Majesty's temper has been much better recently, and he hasn't lost his temper in the palace for a long time, and today he rarely went to find Lishan.

Empress Changsun sat in the Lizheng Hall and said in a low voice: "The contradiction between His Majesty and Zhang Yang's son-in-law has really never changed. ”

Concubine Yang, who was sitting on the side, said in a low voice: "I don't know what will happen in the future, I hope that the monarch and the ministers can put down the mustard." ”

"Hmm."

Empress Eldest Sun nodded, drinking tea, and there was a lot of thought in her eyes.

Concubine Yang's words were very reverent, as if she was praying.

In the pavilion next to the Taiye Pool, Cen Wenwen originally wanted to retire here, but he remembered one more thing and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, there is another group of people in Lishan who have completed their studies this year. ”

Li Shimin asked, "How many people?" ”

"The minister knows of 1,300 people."

After thinking for a moment, Cen Wenwen said: "There are only 1,300 people, and the people who come out of Lishan are all on the roster, and each county is also a fixed quota, and in Lishan's words, they have graduated." ”

"Among them, there are more than 300 cooks, 650 civil engineering and blacksmiths, and the rest are mostly accounting and weaving, and Lishan left 300 people, and the rest were released and returned to various places in Guanzhong."

Raising his eyes and looking at His Majesty's back, Cen Wenwen said again: "The minister thinks that a group of people have just come out of Lishan, these people have mastered the skills of Lishan, if there is a shortage of manpower in the court, the minister can prepare early." ”

While speaking, Cen Wenwen looked at the other side of the Taiye Pool, which was originally planned to build the site of the Daming Palace.

However, the current land in Longshouyuan is still barren, there is no intention of starting construction, and the land in the rain is also very muddy.

Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "Do you think you need to let Yan Liben come back?" ”

Cen Wenwen replied: "Now that Master Yan is building Lishan, if the construction of Lishan is due to Sheji, it is better to let him stay there, as for the construction of the palace, in fact, there are many people in the palace who can take charge of this." ”

Li Shimin said in a low voice: "He is becoming more and more narrow-minded, he is prejudiced against many people, or you are more serious." ”

Cen Wenwen bowed and said, "It's Your Majesty Mingjian." ”

"Well, then let Yan Liben stay in Lishan, at least I want to know what is going to be built in Lishan, and you send someone to tell him that everything related to the construction of Lishan should be sent to the palace."

"I understand."

The emperor's face regained his self-confidence, and the emperor felt that the value of Lishan was greater, and it was said that Zhang Yang's means of letting Yan Liben stay in Lishan were not clever, and he Yan Liben was also half-pushed.

Then let him stay there, the DPRK needs to have an understanding of the construction of Lishan, and with him placed in the interior of Lishan, Li Shimin is more at ease.

It would have been even better if Yan Li had been able to steal the art of firearms casting.

After explaining these words to the emperor, Cen Wenwen thought about it first, as if he had finished saying everything he needed to say, and then replied: "The minister has retired." ”

The emperor was still standing by the Taiye Pool, waiting for Cen Wenwen to leave, before asking, "Are Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng still in retreat?" ”

The prince replied, "Still in retreat. ”

"Hmph, because of a fruit, it is rumored that he Zhang Yang and Yuan Tiangang have comprehended gravity, and he Zhang Yang really dares to talk nonsense."

The Emperor finally took a step and left the Taiye Pool, and he asked again, "What is the name of that fruit?" ”

The prince also frowned and thought, "It seems to be called an apple." ”

"Yes, Apple." Li Shimin shook his head and smiled, "Is there still an immortal fruit in Lishan that can make people enlightened?" ”

The prince's expression was straight, and he hurriedly said, "The old slave will let someone send the apples." ”

Li Shimin said quietly: "In the past, you served your father for many years, and now you have been by my side for so many years, and after this year, you will also go to Lishan to take care of your father for the rest of his life." ”

Hearing this, Wang Gonggong stood in the rain and stopped, his expression was complicated, and his heart was mixed.

Seeing that there was no one on His Majesty's side, he followed the footsteps again and said, "The old slave takes the order." ”

Cen Wenwen braved the rain from Taiye Pool to Zhongshu Province, and now there are few officials in Zhongshu Province, and everyone is very busy these days after the autumn.

Even Fang Xiang, Zheng Gong, and Zhao Guogong rarely stopped in Zhongshu Province, and everyone was preparing for the imperial examination in the coming year.

When he walked under the eaves, he saw Pei Xingjian and Chu Suiliang sitting opposite each other.

It looks like a confrontation.

Pei Xingjian looks lazy, perhaps he has cultivated ruffians in the army for many years, and his conversation is not very positive.

In front of Chu Suiliang was a piece of music, and the pen in his hand was still writing, as if he was replying.

"Chu Shilang, when will we be able to receive the silver money from Jingzhao Mansion?"

"When the old man thinks about it, he will naturally give it to you."

The conversation between the two began, and Cen Wenwen stood aside, watching the play with interest behind his hands.

Pei Xingjian held a booklet in his hand and touched the edge of the booklet on the table with a flick.

With a guilty face: "Chu Shilang, this tattered Jingzhao Mansion can't be repaired, and the official office is still leaking on a rainy day, how to teach the brothers to do things?" Every time he asked the court to send someone to repair it, he was stopped by Chu Shilang. ”

Chu Suiliang didn't look up and still approved the chapter, he replied: "The court needs manpower everywhere, are you in a hurry in Jingzhao Mansion?" ”

"Really?"

Chu Suiliang slapped the document on the table heavily, "Let's take a look at the six departments of the three provinces of the DPRK and China where there is no need for manpower?" ”

When the words fell, the three or two small officials who were already in Zhongshu Province were busy with their own affairs, and now their eyes were all looking over, and finally fell on the Zhongshu Zuo Chengcen text, whose status was second only to Zhongshu Ling Zhao Guogong.

Seeing that Cen Zhongcheng didn't speak, everyone lowered their heads and continued to busy their own affairs.

Chu Suiliang was already on fire, glaring at him, and now this official document could not be approved.

Pei Xingjian was a little disappointed, as if it was him who was embarrassed, not Chu Shilang.

After a long time, Pei Xingjian finally put down the chapter, put his hands on his knees, and said: "There are priorities, the twelve counties of Chang'an City under the rule of Jingzhao Mansion have a dry coefficient of 10,000 households, can't they give help?" ”

Chu Suiliang closed his eyes as if he was smoothing his breathing, gritted his teeth and burst out of the words, "It's time to help, you go to Lishan, then the Marquis of Lishan County can repair Jingzhao Mansion into a palace." ”

Hearing this, Pei Xingjian looked displeased, "Could it be that Chu Shilang thinks Pei is a lackey of Lishan?" ”

Chu Suiliang wanted to say that you were originally a lackey, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed again, and took out an account book and said, "Look at it yourself!" ”

After taking the booklet, Pei Xingjian frowned and looked at it, his expression was entangled, all the constructions of Chang'an City were in this account book, among which there were thousands of people who built Qujiang Chifang City, and they made a lot of construction in order to build a Fang City.

There are more than 10 places where the palace wall is repaired, and there are more external walls built by the Wei Mansion.

Pei Xingjian bowed his head and said: "The lower officials want some stone and wood, and the court will give some silver, and a certain family will find their own way to deal with the manpower." ”

"No money!"

Chu Suiliang still has a stinky face.

"Hey! Chu Shilang doesn't want to bully a certain family, he brought so much gold last time. ”

Chu Suiliang forced his calm mind and said in a deep voice: "Do you think that the DPRK and China are people's lives? Not to mention that the money brought back is used to make up for the deficit for many years, and the money has to be paid to the local governors, not to mention the officials in various places to replenish it, so there is no need to use the money. ”

He patted the account book and said: "The official uniforms of many officials in the DPRK and China have not been purchased. ”

In Chu Suiliang's mouth, this court is very poor, so poor that it is almost a mouse.

Cen Wenwen knew in his heart that although he was nervous, it was more than enough for the DPRK and China to deal with those things.

"The lower officials don't want much, and five times the money is enough."

Chu Suiliang sighed, as if he had compromised on this, and he said slowly: "Three money." ”

"Si Guan!"

"Sanguan!"

"Three-in-five!"

Chu Suiliang was so angry that his hand on the account book was trembling, and he said with a smile: "What kind of place do you think this is, bargaining with the old man?" ”

"Then three times the money."

Pei Xingjian knew that if he continued to make trouble, he might not be able to get a penny, no matter how he said that Chu Suiliang was the current Zhongshu Shilang, and it was the position of the original Cen text that replaced him.

After taking Chu Suiliang's paperwork, he left to go to the treasury to collect the money.

Chu Suiliang shook his head and let out a sigh, raised his head and saw Cen Wenwen, he got up and saluted, "See and smile." ”

Cen Wenwen waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty attaches great importance to the construction of Qujiangli. ”

It's just that as soon as the surnamed Pei left, he came back again, and said with an anxious and hopeful face: "Chu Shilang, the lower official forgot one thing." ”

"What's wrong with you!"

Finally, Chu Suiliang couldn't bear it anymore and took the case, "You are endless!" ”

Pei Xingjian still smiled and asked, "Is Xiaguan's Yulu given after the autumn or in the coming year?" ”

"I'll give it before Hugh Mu."

"Thank you."

Pei Xingjian thanked him and left Zhongshu Province in a hurry.

Chu Suiliang sat down again in a trembling rage, he was really annoyed by this surnamed Pei.

As soon as he walked out a short distance, he bumped into Li Yifu.

"I've seen Li Shaoqing."

"Pei Fuyin doesn't need to be polite." Li Yifu looked polite and arched his hand: "Fu Yin's official rank is much higher than that of the lower officials. ”

Seeing that Pei Xingjian was still humble, Li Yifu patted him on the back with courtesy, and said, "Is it Chu Suiliang who is embarrassing you?" ”

Pei Xingjian was still holding the paperwork in his hand, "No, Chu Shilang also has his difficulties." ”

Later, Chu Suiliang asked where the money went, but in fact, Pei Xingjian did not use the money to repair Jingzhao Mansion, but took the money to repair the ditches and roads in the counties.

So much so that Pei Xingjian's reputation in various counties is better.

This matter soon spread in the government and the opposition, Chu Suiliang has been very melancholy recently, he was embarrassed by Pei Xingjian at the beginning, and now there is a lot of discussion in the court.

When they go to court, although they don't say it loudly, they can feel that they have become villains in the mouths of everyone in private discussions.

And Pei Xingjian has become a talent in the mouths of everyone.

Back at his mansion, Chu Suiliang kept pouring himself wine, and said: "The old man is all for the sake of the society, they don't understand the old man!" ”

He put all the anguish and resentment in his heart in the drink

In the Hongwen Hall in Chang'an City, Di Renjie has grown a lot taller recently, and the eleven or twelve-year-old child will grow one point taller every day.

According to Xu Jingzong's suggestion, Di Renjie will not only read these former sage classics, but also read historical books.

Jin Shu and Han Shu became Di Renjie's favorites.

Zhang Cambodia's way: "Renjie, let's go autumn hunting." ”

Di Renjie held the scroll in his hand and said: "This is the Han book reprinted by Lishan, and it is the regular script of Mr. Ouyang Xun, which looks very comfortable." ”

"Go! Autumn! Hunt! "Zhang Cambodia is authentic word by word.

"Cambodia, you should study more, and we will be able to participate in the imperial examination in three years."

"Renjie, you're too obsessed."

Di Renjie replied: "It's not an obsession, but a need, don't you study?" ”

Zhang Cambodia said with a free smile: "There are ravines in the lower chest, but there are hundreds of poems in Lishan, even if my generation reads it for a lifetime, I can't write thousands of miles of sadness and autumn as a frequent guest, and I have been sick for more than a hundred years and has appeared on the stage alone." ”

Di Renjie repeated: "I am often a guest in the sad autumn of thousands of miles, and I have been on stage alone for more than a hundred years, alas, ......"

This Cambodia was hit, and it was hit to the point that it had no fighting spirit.

Lishan's poems are so amazing that the literati of Chang'an City want to compare the marquis of Lishan County to a poet immortal.

In fact, the rumored county marquis is already an immortal.

Di Renjie no longer paid attention to Zhang Cambodia, but leaned against the bookshelf, his chubby face full of confusion and confusion.

What is puzzling is that the Hou of Lishan County is not yet thirty years old, and he has a lot of knowledge.

It is not easy for an ordinary person to study hard all his life and be able to achieve all his attainments in one aspect.

is like Li Chunfeng's mathematics, and his mathematics is also one of the best in the world.

But how does Li Chunfeng compare with Zhang Yang?

I heard the people in Hongwen Hall talk that back then, Li Chunfeng gave Zhang Yang a lesson, but he couldn't continue teaching for a day.

The Marquis of Lishan County almost drove Li Daochang crazy.

It is conceivable that the level of arithmetic of the Hou of Lishan County was above that of Li Daochang, and later Li Chunfeng's Taoist created the zodiac armillary sphere and placed it in Qintianjian.

I don't know what realm Li Daochang is now, but judging from the deeds of the year, Zhang Yang's mathematics is higher.

There is also Yuan Tiangang, who has also received guidance from the Hou of Lishan County in terms of latitude and longitude.

Not to mention the current poems and the construction of Lishan.

Di Renjie shook his head and said, "Could it really be an immortal." ”

By noon, the students of Hongwen Hall had almost dispersed, and Di Renjie found that Zhang Cambodia didn't know when he had left.

He also put the scroll back and walked out of the Hongbunkan.

When he saw Xu Jingzong at the door, Di Renjie was curious: "Huh? Xu Shilang. ”

Xu Jingzong tore off half of the cake and handed it to him, "I'm hungry." ”

"Well, I'm hungry."

Di Renjie took the cake and ate it.

One big and one small walked on Suzaku Street, and he said in a low voice: "Xu Shilang, is the Marquis of Lishan County really an immortal?" ”

Xu Jingzong sighed: "The old man and the county marquis have worked together in the Ministry of Rites for many years, and in dealing with wars outside the customs, the county marquis can always seize the opportunity, and sometimes if he can't wait for the first opportunity, then create a first opportunity." ”

"It is precisely in this way that we can seek to seize Gaochang, support the little Turkic Khan, besiege Songtsen Gampo, and deter the Western Regions."

"According to Xu Shilang, the county marquis is so powerful, why should he hide from the world in Lishan?" Di Renjie said again: "Back then, there were only two people in the Ministry of Rites, the county marquis and Xu Shilang, if there was no Xu Shilang, the county marquis should be difficult to support alone." ”

"The county marquis did not come out of the world because he was unintentional utilitarian."

Di Renjie asked: "Isn't it the suspicion of the monarch and the minister?" ”

Xu Jingzong shook his head and was silent.
