In the Daming Palace.

Li Shimin was sitting in the hall.

At the bottom, hundreds of civil and military officials are arranged on the left and right.

An official reported it.

"Your Majesty! Gao Shilian unfortunately died of illness yesterday!"

Li Shimin was a little depressed.

Gao Shilian's death was also an accident. But there is no way! He was too old and contracted cholera!

It was also caused by Li Chengqian's negligence.

Maybe it was infected by Li Chengqian, after all, he went to see him alone!

Now Queen Changsun's relatives are decreasing one after another.

Regarding this matter, he did not want to tell Queen Changsun for the time being.

So he said: "You can't talk about this with the Queen! Let's talk about it later!"

Everyone said yes.

Then, he added: "Gao Shilian has devoted a lot to the Tang Dynasty throughout his life. Although he is no longer an official, he still lives his life with all his heart and soul. He is also a relative of the emperor, so he should treat his descendants well!"

He did this so that he wouldn't chill everyone's hearts.

In this way, it would be a good thing for Gao Shilian.

At the same time, Queen Changsun would not say anything.

What a sin.

The dead are dead, and the living must live well.

Li Min has one less enemy.

How lonely it is to be invincible!

Next, Fang Xuanling's speech helped everyone come out of their sadness.

He said: "Now all high-risk people in Chang'an have received the first dose of the vaccine. The second dose will be given three days later. Some are oral, and there are two more doses that need to be taken!"

"In that case, that's great!"

"Yes, the quarantine in many places has been lifted now, and today will be the last day of quarantine. As people resume production, vaccines will also spread to the surrounding areas. These vaccines are all produced by Shengtang Group. The cost will be borne by the Sixth Prince alone. , this time the cost is huge, I thought..."

Fang Xuanling stopped talking.

Finally he said:

"I thought to myself, why not give something to the Shengtang Group? To show the emperor's great kindness!"

His words elicited agreement from everyone.

Everyone said it was something they had to do.

Otherwise, the court will have no credibility in the future.

This is not good for the court.

Moreover, Li Min doesn’t know how much money this epidemic has cost him.

It is also a huge blow to Chang'an's economy.

Although fighting the epidemic is good for Li Min.

But the people don't think so.

Whoever treats them well is whom they remember.

For Li Shimin's Tang Dynasty, the benefits are the greatest.

Therefore, Fang Xuanling deliberately asked Li Shimin to subsidize some money to Li Min, and also posted the emperor's list to let everyone in the world know. This is the right approach, otherwise the people may only know about Li Min's efforts, but not I don’t know, but the imperial court also helped.

For the people, that is very unfavorable to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin remained silent.

He didn't know how to help Li Min.

tips?

How much is the reward?

That's a huge amount of money. If you give Li Min 10,000 taels of silver, people will still look down upon your money.

The money spent may be in the hundreds of millions.

Your ten thousand is only one ten thousandth.

What to do?

other methods? Not reliable!

Li Shimin was still thinking about what to do.

I can't think of it for a while.

He said, "Fang Xuanling, let's talk about this later!"

Fang Xuanling stopped talking.

How can we talk about this later!

Li Shimin added:

"From now on, September 13th will be designated as National Memorial Day. Every year on this day, the whole country mourns!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

The ministers said!

wise? Isn't this what he should do?

At this time, a eunuch came up and said: "Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor has taken him back to the Daming Palace and is currently resting in the palace!"

Not only Li Yuan, but also Li Lizhi and other princes and princesses were also brought back.

Because now it is safe and they have been vaccinated, they no longer have to be afraid of cholera.

As for Li Yuan, his situation is special.

Because for a period of time, he refused to come back to Daming Palace.

But because of the epidemic, he gave up the ward. Now, the Renjia Group does not accept him, and Li Shimin also issued an order to let him come back.

So, he's back.

"Okay, I understand! Take good care of the Supreme Emperor and make no mistakes!"

"yes!"

Someone asked Li Shimin if he wanted to take a look?

Li Shimin pretended not to hear.

visit? Li Yuan was so angry that he didn't go last time!

At this time, Li Shimin avoided the topic and asked the officials again.

"Is there anything else? If nothing happens, just retreat!"

Is this the time to retreat?

Some people can't stand it anymore.

Is this the end?

Shouldn't I give Li Min something?

Li Shimin can't be so heartless.

If he doesn't do something, it will not be a good thing for the court.

It may even affect his approval rating, and his future rule will be in danger.

Therefore, Li Jing stood up.

Said: "Your Majesty, I have here a document, which is a document petitioned by the people of Chang'an. They request your Majesty to reward the Sixth Prince heavily!"

Li Shimin was shocked, it seemed he couldn't escape.

Even the people came out to speak.

How long can he escape?

It wasn't until he saw Dai Zhou that he made a decision.

Maybe do that.

So, he said: "Okay, I understand. If I don't reward him anymore, I'm afraid the people won't agree. So, I decided..."

Everyone fell silent.

What did he decide to do?

How much money do you want to give Li Min? Or something else? For example, restore the status of the prince and directly give him the position of prince? ! Designating a successor?

A lot of doubts arose in the minds of the officials.

However, Li Shimin did not do this!

He said: "I have decided to exempt Shengtang Group from taxes for one month!"

Wow

Everyone was in an uproar.

What kind of reward is this?

How much money do you have per month?

Just when everyone thought Li Shimin was stingy.

Li Shimin also saw everyone's confusion.

So, Dai Zhou was asked: "Dai Zhou, how much is the current monthly tax of Shengtang Group?"

Dai Zhou immediately said: "Now Shengtang Group's monthly tax has reached 100 million or two yuan!"

When he said this, everyone was even more shocked.

So, how much does the group earn per month?

Horrible, really terrible.

It would also be painful for the court to charge so much less.

But this is what Li Shimin had to do.

If you give money, they don’t necessarily have to accept it.

And how much to give is another question.

If you reduce taxes, it will be different.

After everyone understood, they immediately stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty is wise!"

Li Shimin signaled everyone to stand up, turned around, and announced his retreat.

At this time, he was in great pain.

But can't show it.

Just want to find someone to chat with.

Queen Changsun didn't know about Gao Shilian yet, so he didn't want to look for her for the time being, so he walked to Concubine Yang's palace.

I came here unconsciously.

When he arrived, he saw many people at the door, and he was very puzzled.

What are you doing?
