The next day.

Yuan Tiangang came to Li Yunxiao's room early and knocked on it.

Seeing that no one responded, he pushed open the door and walked in.

As soon as he came in, he was stunned.

"Brother Yunxiao, why do you look like this?"

Li Yunxiao opened the panda's eyes and said with some annoyance: "Brother Yuan, how can I say that I am also at the peak of the star position now, why do I feel like I am about to die if I don't sleep for two days." ”

"I just felt like I was too much of a..."

Yuan Tiangang didn't speak, took out three silver needles, and Li Yunxiao hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't don't, don't be, don't be free, I'm in good spirits, really." ”

Yuan Tiangang smiled helplessly, put away the silver needle and said with a smile: "Who told you that people who practice martial arts can go without rest for two days?" ”

"Even if I don't rest for two days, I will be tired."

"Okay, hurry up and freshen up and come with me, Your Majesty is invited!"

"What's that? Please? Li Yunxiao sighed.

"Brother Yuan, you won't say all those things as if I said them, right?"

Yuan Tiangang was stunned: "That's your credit, don't say it's you, can it be that I can't do it?" ”

"Holy! He asked, "You said it?" ”

"Brother Yuan, you are so tidy, aren't I getting deeper and deeper in the court? Then I'll be in the future..."

"Your Majesty will reward you with gold and silver treasures." Yuan Tiangang interrupted him and said lightly.

"Lead the way! It's too late to explain, quick! ”

Yuan Tiangang was stunned for a moment, and the next moment he was pulled by Li Yunxiao and quickly ran towards Chang'an City.

Came to the early dynasty.

At Li Shimin's suggestion, Li Yunxiao re-explained the matter of the south-to-north water diversion.

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

At that moment, many ministers of the DPRK and China were shocked and couldn't help nodding.

Li Yunxiao's move to divert water from the south to the north is not enough to deal with it in the short term, but in the long run, it can definitely prevent natural disasters in the future.

With this kind of strategy, can the future of his Datang not be prosperous?

At this moment, there are some ministers who are facing Li Yunxiao squarely.

If yesterday's solution to the locust plague was a coincidence, then this move to divert water from the south to the north proves that he is not an ordinary person!

Li Shimin was also in a good mood, he looked at Li Yunxiao with a smile and asked:

"Li Aiqing, how long do you think it will take to complete the South-to-North Water Diversion Project?"

Li Yunxiao was stunned for a moment, why did he become Aiqing? He doesn't have an official title yet....

Yuan Tiangang also frowned slightly when he stood aside, and glanced at Li Yunxiao, he felt as if he was still interfering with the other party's intention of not wanting to be an official.

But he had to say this, because the method was what Li Yunxiao said, and it was impossible for him Yuan Tiangang to rob him of his credit.

The title of Aiqing, Li Shimin naturally called it on purpose, in order to slowly win over, slowly change Li Yunxiao's thinking, and let him integrate in.

Abbreviated as brainwashing.... Or imperceptibly.

What can I do without an official title? He, Li Shimin, can still call him Aiqing!

Li Yunxiao gave a salute, and then replied:

"Back to Your Majesty, if you use the strength of most of the people, in less than five years, you should be able to dig a super river."

"If it's narrower, the time will be even earlier, it depends on what His Majesty wants."

"During this period, Your Majesty can directly use the resources of the treasury to requisition the people as labor, so that the people have work and money to earn, and they will definitely be exempt from the negative effects of the locust plague."

"And the problem of money, there is no good solution for the time being."

"But when the construction started, the food could not be stored for a long time, and I was trying to find a way to solve it, and I used it in the next..."

For a quarter of an hour, the people below were stunned.

Even Li Shimin and Yuan Tiangang are the same.

Li Shimin was puzzled at this time: "Li Aiqing, the instant noodles you said can really be preserved for a long time, soaked in water and eaten?" ”

Li Yunxiao nodded: "Of course, give me some time, not much, seven days, after seven days, I invite Your Majesty and all the adults to taste it yourself!" ”

"Good!"

Li Shimin stood up and looked at Li Yunxiao with burning eyes.

"Do you know that there is no joke in the DPRK?"

Li Yunxiao pursed his lips and began to put pressure on him again.

Li Yunxiao has been in contact with Li Shimin a few times, and he can be regarded as understanding a little, the other party cherishes talents, if he doesn't make big mistakes, he definitely can't do anything to himself.

"If the next sentence is true, we will know in seven days!"

Li Shimin nodded, and his eyes couldn't help but glance at the ministers below the court.

Fang Xuanling understood.

That's where they need to come forward and compliment a few words.

I saw Fang Xuanling come out sideways and salute Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Li Yunxiao's strategy is extraordinary, and he will definitely be the future pillar of the Tang Dynasty in the future."

"He can come up with such a big project as the South-to-North Water Diversion, and what can he study..."

"Instant noodles."

"Ah yes, instant noodles, solve the food problem, so, the minister dares to ask His Majesty to reward Li Yunxiao with a half-official position!"

Li Shimin laughed out loud and glanced at Fang Xuanling appreciatively.

Those who know others, Mo Xuanling!

"Liang Guogong is right! Li Yunxiao can think of such a clever plan at a young age, he should be rewarded! ”

"Li Yunxiao, do you want to do things by my side?"

Li Yunxiao said lightly: "I have a low strength, and I happen to know some things, so I don't have the strength to be an official." ”

"Oh? Don't want to? ”

"It's not that I don't want to, it's that I really don't have that ability."

"No, I think you're capable!"

"Not capable."

"Capable!!"

"No, no, no, no."

Yuan Tiangang saluted on the side at this time and said: "Your Majesty, Li Yunxiao does things without regard for the end of things, and makes frequent mistakes, and the ministers understand him, if he is made an official, I am afraid it will be a wrong thing." ”

can directly say that the emperor has done something wrong in the court, I am afraid that it is Yuan Tiangang, the national teacher, and some individual people.

Li Yunxiao glanced at Yuan Tiangang, although he was helping him, but what he said was a little unpleasant.

Li Shimin is not angry, he is just trying to force Li Yunxiao, and if it becomes natural, he will accept it, if it doesn't work, then he will talk about it.

"Alright, in that case, I'll give you another reward."

"I have decided that I appreciate the plan of diverting water from the south to the north, so I will reward you with 10,000 taels of gold!"

"If this happens, the bounty will be 100,000!"

"Li Aiqing, what do you think of this reward from me?"

Ten thousand taels of gold, this reward has made many ministers a little hot, this is not a small amount, even if there are individual officials who are corrupt, it will be 1,800 taels of silver a year.

But everyone knows that this is also a verbal agreement, who knows that the completion of the project will be decades, hundreds of years later? At least now, it's certainly impossible to get started.

Li Yunxiao's eyes lit up, money, this is a good thing.

He didn't know how much 10,000 gold was, but it was definitely a lot!

"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you!"

Li Shimin smiled and nodded, looked down, and said: "Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, I have decided to hand over the matter of the South-to-North Water Diversion to the two of you to solve, and for the time being, I will look for a candidate first, and when I say it's okay in the future, I will perform it, this important task, you must complete it well!" ”

"Yes! Your Majesty, your ministers, etc., will not disappoint Your Majesty's holy words! ”

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui lowered their bodies to receive the order.

The two of them are one of the few people who can make Li Shimin trust the most, and let them be in charge of this project, which shows how much Li Shimin cares about this matter.

At this time, Li Yunxiao suddenly spoke: "Your Majesty, when the time comes to start work, it is better to bring Xu Jingzong." ”

When Xu Jingzong heard this, he was slightly stunned, why did this guy mention himself?

For any of them, as long as this big project is done well, it will be a great achievement.

His own sins Li Yunxiao, there is no reason why he would be so good to himself.

And then, he seemed to think of something, and the cold sweat instantly soaked his back.

When Li Shimin heard Li Yunxiao's words, he was a little puzzled.

"Why?"

What strength Xu Jingzong has, Li Shimin knows very well.

Although he is very smart, he is still a big step away from Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui.

Li Yunxiao's eyes flowed, and he didn't seem to be able to speak.

Seeing this, Li Shimin smiled lightly and walked down.

Li Yunxiao immediately stepped forward and whispered in Li Shimin's ear: "There are corrupt officials in big projects, bring one more person, and you can manage more." ”

Li Shimin was slightly stunned, daring to be a corrupt official in front of him, was he mocking him for being an emperor?

I didn't know how before, but at least he is now the emperor, and corrupt officials are destined to be weakened.

Since ancient times, corrupt officials have definitely existed, but there are some differences.

He, Li Shimin, cannot guarantee that there are no corrupt officials in this world, and can only be said to be weakened.

Li Shimin only thought for a moment and then whispered: "Even if there are corrupt officials and corrupt officials, I will clean them up, but although this Xu Jingzong is greedy for life and afraid of death, and is as timid as a mouse, he is better than smart and talented, you have an enmity with him, I have seen it yesterday." ”

"If you want revenge, I can immediately demote him to a concubine, but after that, you have to come..."

Li Yunxiao hurriedly shook his head and interrupted Li Shimin's proposal.

"As I said, it's Your Majesty's business whether to do it or not, it's not humble, it's that I'm really not that material, I have to be self-aware."

The corners of Li Shimin's mouth twitched, and his majestic face instantly fell into a stupor, he really wanted to punch Li Yunxiao hard!

If you don't get in the oil and salt, you can't be fooled no matter how you fish!

Li Shimin sighed slightly, he felt that Li Yunxiao's proposal was very good.

Sometimes, the more greedy people are for life and fear of death, the more they will be concerned about this kind of project, especially Xu Jingzong, if he is in charge of the project, I am afraid that the officials under him will be investigated very strictly.

"Good! I promised you! ”

"Xu Jingzong!"

"The minister is here!"

"From now on, as long as the construction starts, you, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui will be responsible for the project together!"

Xu Jingzong wanted to cry, this hot potato finally fell on his head.

Compared with Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, his weight is obviously insufficient, if he is really found to be corrupt officials, his head....

"Li Yunxiao, Li Yunxiao, you have hurt me!"

He complained in his heart, but he still had to show a loyal and courageous smile and shouted: "Minister, the order!" I will live up to His Majesty's words! ”

"Good! Retreat! ”

Li Shimin waved his hand, and everyone knelt on the ground and shouted long live.

Li Yunxiao wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, the previous indifference was all pretended, this pressure is not ordinary.

Thinking of this, he directly scolded Yuan Tiangang.

And Yuan Tiangang instinctively reacted, reaching out and grabbing his fist.

"Oops, huh? Are you still blocking? You almost killed me here. ”

Yuan Tiangang said lightly: "You won't die, I can calculate that you have a long life and can live until you die." ”

"Oops? When did your mouth become so powerful, and you still know how to scare people? Who doesn't live to die? ”

"Okay, just kidding, don't complain, you still picked up ten thousand gold."

"! The gold I want to come here with my ability, what is it called to pick it up, next time you have merit, you can tell him directly, I don't want to be an official, just give some money. ”

Yuan Tiangang said lightly: "I said it, but he didn't listen." ”

"Oh, if he doesn't listen to you, I'll be fine?"

"I said, you won't die, it's too late for Your Majesty to cherish you."

After saying that, he went around and came back, and Li Yunxiao didn't say much, but he had to spread this anger!

Shout!

Li Yunxiao, who was at the peak of the middle star rank, instantly fought with Yuan Tiangang of the Great Heaven Rank outside the palace.
