Fang Yuan met Li Shimin in the imperial study.

After a brief salute, Li Shimin cordially arranged a seat.

"Fang Yuan, are things going well these days?"

Li Shimin said as if he was at home.

"It went well."

"There are more than 130 families that have invested in road construction, and more than 50 families have invested in building communities."

Fang Yuan said with a smile.

The money invested by each family to build roads is enough for Fang Yuan to have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime.

However, for Fang Yuan, who is in charge of Huaxia Qianzhuang, money is actually just a number.

"I have already found out the reason why the five surnames and Qiwang left Chang'an City."

Li Shimin suddenly changed his face and sighed.

"What is the reason?"

Fang Yuan asked.

I thought it should be what I heard.

"They want to rebel, starting from Qingzhou, and one person has been raised in Qingzhou."

Li Shimin said in a deep voice.

He had already determined that the five surnames and seven hopes were just trying to rebel.

And the young man named Qingshan in Qingzhou was also identified by him as a person elected by the five surnames and Qiwang.

"So they left Chang'an City early, so as not to be controlled by the imperial court?"

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

He had thought about this a long time ago.

In this regard, Fang Yuan had to admire, a big family is good.

The five surnames and seven wangs have many careers in Chang'an City, but they are not reluctant to leave.

They don't seem to be worried about being annexed by the emperor, or being affected by war.

"Yes."

"A bunch of hateful families."

Li Shimin said hatefully.

For those families, he hated the disease.

They had been plotting to dismantle them for a long time, but they were not waiting for me.

The officials produced by the imperial examination have not yet been able to play a role and cannot confront them.

Like he deliberately supported Fang Yuan, Fang Yuan was flying at the same speed, and he was just a waiter.

"Then tear your face, if you don't break it, you won't stand it."

Fang Yuan thought for a moment and said in a deep voice.

The family is deeply rooted and is the cancer of this era.

It's not easy to eradicate them, but you have to try.

With the current strength of the imperial court, it is not impossible to tear their faces with them.

After all, now that they are all going to rebel, what is there to hesitate about?

"It's got to this point, and that's all it can be."

"Before I solve the problem of the five surnames and seven hopes, I need the support of Cui Zhentang and some other people."

"Fang Yuan, you know what I mean, and you can understand me, right?"

Li Shimin said with a sigh.

He thought that time would be used to solve the problems of the great families.

But it is clear that the families will not give him time and are now starting to create chaos.

Since this is the case, then unite with Cui Zhentang, a person who seeks stability, to give Cui Runyu a fatal blow.

For the big family, he knew about the diversion choice, he was not surprised, and he also felt that Cui Zhentang was credible.

"Your Majesty, I don't understand!"

Fang Yuan shook his head and said in a deep voice.

He understood, but he didn't.

The transaction between Li Shimin and Cui Zhentang should not be paid for by him.

"Fang Yuan, Cui Zhentang made a deal with me, told me about the situation of the five surnames and Qiwang, and I gave him the book of the household department."

"Fang Yuan, you are still young, and you will not be limited to a scholarly position in the future, so the head of the household department will give it to Cui Zhentang first to understand my difficulties."

Li Shimin said in a good voice.

I hope Fang Yuan can support him in this choice.

"Your Majesty, if it weren't for you looking for me and making conditions, I wouldn't have any complaints now."

"But now, you've changed your mind, and it's not a problem that I'm not doing it right, do you think I can understand your difficulties?"

Fang Yuan almost sneered.

All these problems were caused by Li Shimin.

But he allows himself to understand, so who will understand himself?

"Fang Yuan, the overall situation is ahead, can't you take care of the overall situation?"

Li Shimin's face became ugly.

He felt that he was annoyed enough, so he was lucky to talk to Fang Yuan.

Now, Fang Yuan was so unfortunate that he didn't have the overall situation, which made him angry.

"Your Majesty, is the overall situation about sacrificing oneself to fulfill everything?"

Fang Yuan's eyes sank, and he said coldly.

"At some point, it did."

Li Shimin said in a deep voice.

"In other words, if the person concerned is His Majesty, His Majesty will also sacrifice himself, right?"

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

"Naturally!"

Li Shimin said without any hesitation.

He sacrificed many, many times for the sake of the country.

Feelings, interests, family affection, etc., he has sacrifices.

"Since Your Majesty has said so, then I have no opinion."

"Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, I will go back first."

Fang Yuan suddenly saluted Li Shimin and asked to leave.

"Ah, oh, oh, okay, you go back first."

Li Shimin was surprised.

Fang Yuan was surprised by the sudden change of mind.

But since Fang Yuan had changed his mind, he was also relieved.

Fortunately, fortunately, Fang Yuan didn't make an ugly fuss with himself, and he didn't make people laugh.

At this time, the external problems had not been resolved, and the internal emperor and ministers were not in harmony.

It's a big taboo.

Fang Yuan retired.

Li Shimin watched Fang Yuan leave.

He was still surprised, and couldn't understand why Fang Yuan suddenly changed his mind.

I was about to quarrel with myself just now, why did I leave suddenly?

"Wang De, has anything happened in Fang Mansion recently?"

Li Shimin called Wang De and asked.

"Your Majesty, the villain hasn't heard of it, do you want the villain to let people inquire?"

Wang De came running around.

"No, you don't."

Li Shimin shook his head and said.

was about to ask Wang De to leave, but suddenly a possibility came to mind.

Immediately said: "Quick, quickly call Fang Yuan back!" ”

Li Shimin thought of a possibility, a possibility that made him grit his teeth in anger.

Not long after, Fang Yuan was called back by Wang De.

"Fang Yuan, when will the money invested in road construction and community construction be returned to the national treasury?"

Li Shimin pretended to be indifferent and said.

He guessed that Fang Yuan had transferred the money away.

"Your Majesty, that's the money that Weichen earned from cooperating with the major families, why did he send it back to the treasury?"

Fang Yuan said with a smile.

I only think about it now, it's too late.

"You, how can you do this?"

"That's a few years of tax collection by the state!"

Li Shimin suddenly jumped up in anger.

The annual tax revenue of the imperial court is 20 million, but every year there is not much left in the treasury, and even money is owed.

Nowadays, the money brought by Fang Yuan to build roads and communities may be forty or fifty million, and the income of the state treasury for several years.

Such a large income, but it has nothing to do with the imperial court, and it was all converged by Fang Yuan?

"Your Majesty, didn't you say that you have to sacrifice yourself for the current situation?"

"I've sacrificed myself, you can't sacrifice nothing, you want everything, right?"

Fang Yuan looked at Li Shimin and said with a smile.

"You, you're working with me!"

"Without me, how could you have made so much money!"

Li Shimin said angrily.

"It is true that the construction of a community requires His Majesty's permission to sell land, but the construction of roads is completely negotiated between me and them."

"If Your Majesty doesn't want to sell land to them for development, then I can terminate cooperation with them."

Fang Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently.

In this case, Li Shimin will definitely not dare to terminate his cooperation with the family.

Building community cooperation, to a certain extent, is also a way to bind the family.

Although the effect of this method is not very large, there is a high probability that these families who want to develop will not be in the same stream as the five surnames and seven hopes.

"You bastard, you dare to calculate?!"

Li Shimin huffed and walked towards Fang Yuan.

"Your Majesty's words are really despicable!"

"It's obvious that you are going back on your word, why did I calculate you?"

"Why, the emperor can set fires, and the minister doesn't even have the qualifications to light the lamp?"

Fang Yuan sneered.

Turning a blind eye to Li Shimin's anger.

Nowadays, he is no longer a small county order.

It's the head of the household who is the fourth product, and he holds the real power.

is the emperor, unless he is mediocre and doesn't care about chilling the hearts of the ministers, he won't kill people casually.

Under normal circumstances, any minister of the fourth grade, as long as he did not commit a heinous crime, there would be many ministers to stop him when the emperor wanted to deal with it.

Because the emperor and the ministers are two wholes, the ministers have to think about themselves, and they have to bury good karma for being troubled by the emperor for no reason.

This is also why most ministers walk very decently when they are in office, and they also want to be decent in the future.

"You, you, you"

"Stay with you, you can, but you have to give it to me when I need it!"

Li Shimin was angry and angry, pointing at Fang Yuan's hand trembling.

But Fang Yuan was speechless, unable to find a reason to refute.

"You can use it!"

"But borrow, not give!"

Fang Yuan stood calmly and said indifferently.

"Do you want to go a little more way?"

"If you let me borrow it, I will let Huaxia Money Bank print money!"

Li Shimin was so angry that his face was red and his ears were red, and he shouted angrily.

"You can print as much as you want."

"But don't forget what I told you about inflation."

Fang Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently.

After deciding to print banknotes, Fang Yuan and Li Shimin talked about why banknotes could not be printed endlessly, and the issue of reserve funds.

The danger has already told Li Shimin, if he doesn't mind, then let him print, anyway, the Tang Dynasty belongs to his Li family, and it is also his problem if it is defeated.

Now, Fang Yuan seemed to understand a little bit of the reason why the Great Family didn't have their own emperor, it was too difficult to sort out the world, and there was too much to think about.

But governing the family is different, you only need to let the family develop, the means can be vicious, and you don't have to worry about depriving the people and being rebelled by the people, etc.

"You have to do this to me?"

Li Shimin said angrily.

"Your Majesty, you were the one who did that to me first."

Fang Yuan said with a sneer.

"Bastard!"

"I don't want to see you, you get out of here!"

Li Shimin clenched his fists and roared.

Fang Yuan was calm in his heart and saluted Li Shimin and left.

Perhaps, from this moment on, he broke with Li Shimin.

But Fang Yuan didn't regret it, he was just fighting for his own interests.

Between the emperor and his courtiers, it is necessary to fight, one for imperial power, and the other for the right of vassals.

Just like that, Fang Yuan left.

The next day, the fifth day of Li Shimin and Cui Zhentang's fixed date.

On this day, just after dawn, Cui Zhentang asked people to spread the news that the emperor had ordered him to be promoted to the head of the household.

As soon as the news came out, the magnates in Chang'an City were in an uproar, and they were all inquiring about the accuracy of the news.

Obviously, Fang Yuan is going to complete the emperor's agreement, and the Hubu Shangshu will be within reach.

But why did it finally return to Cui Zhentang's hands?

Is the ability of the five surnames and seven hopes really so terrifying?

"Fang Yuan, is it true that everything is rumored outside?"

Because it was still early, Fang Yuan hadn't gone to the early dynasty yet.

Although Du Miaoyan is pregnant, she is still used to getting up early.

Because Fang Yuan wanted to go to the early court, several people such as Hongxu and Qingyu also got up early.

After learning the news outside, Du Miaoyan and the others looked at Fang Yuan in confusion.

"The emperor and Cui Zhentang have a new deal."

Fang Yuan explained simply.

"Damn, how can Your Majesty do this?"

"That's it, it's obvious that he was the one who looked for the master first."

"Then the master's efforts during this time have not been in vain?"

Du Miaoyan and several daughters were upset about Fang Yuan and accused Li Shimin one after another.

Although Li Shimin is the emperor, Fang Yuan is still more important in the hearts of several people.

"It's annoying, but it's not in vain."

"I've got the money from all over the country to be shipped to us."

Fang Yuan said with a smile.

Although he did not get the post of head of the household, the money he earned was not handed over to the state treasury.

It has only been more than half a month to earn millions of dollars, and it is not a loss compared to the book of the household, after all, he is still very young, and there are opportunities in the future.

Youth, is capital!

"Isn't it inevitable to have an unpleasant relationship with Your Majesty?"

Du Miaoyan said with some concern.

The courtiers and the emperor are respected by the emperor in the end.

If the emperor wants to deal with his courtiers, it is much easier than if his courtiers want to deal with His Majesty.

Unless it is said that it is a powerful minister who invades the government and the opposition, it is difficult to wrestle with the emperor.

"Yes, but it's okay too."

"The emperor is a wise monarch and will not mess around."

"If he's going to target me on purpose, it's a big deal."

"With our current money and strength, the emperor will not dare to touch us."

Fang Yuan is confident.

Now the Fang family seems to have risen for a short time, and there is only Fang Yuan alone.

But the Fang family currently controls a lot of things, and there are also a lot of people.

There are outsiders such as Lu Xia and the Xue family sisters, and Fang Yuan treats them as his own.

Relying on the security guards trained by Yingzhe and the guards like Liao Fengmao, Fang Yuan also regarded them as his own.

There are also Juzi and Sun Simiao, etc., all of whom are part of the Fang Mansion and are a force that the Fang Mansion cannot ignore.

Especially in terms of weapons, Fang Yuan has created the strongest weapons of this era.

With them, even if Li Shimin is a faint monarch, he has to consider the consequences.

"Since my husband has an idea, then I will support you."

"It's a big deal, we don't want anything, we go back to Yamada."

Du Miaoyan said softly.

Powerful people are nostalgic, but they are also things that bind people.

If Fang Yuan was willing not to do it, then she would also support Fang Yuan unconditionally.

"With your words, I'm relieved."

"Take care of the baby at home, I'll go to the household department."

Fang Yuan smiled heartily, feeling warm in his heart.

Soon, Fang Yuan set off for the household department.

The eyes of the officials he met along the way changed when they looked at Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan ignored this, indifferently accepted all the gazes, and finally came to the household department.

At this time, news came from the direction of Qingzhou.

The young man, named Aoyama, was supported by many people.

Then the young man of Aoyama actually took his supporters to attack Dongying's fishing boat.

Not only did he win, but he also captured a few Dongying fishermen and overshadowed the Dongying people in the port.

As soon as the news came out, the reputation of the young man in Qingshan became even greater, and more people supported him.
