Half a day?
Someone even threatened to coordinate the entire Ministry of Works' accounts in half a day.
Isn't that a real joke?
No one would dare to brag about such nonsense, and they even said it directly in front of the Tai Chi Temple!
And he’s still a prince? !
For a moment, the ministers looked at me and I looked at you, and there was an irrepressible discussion.
Countless shocked looks were cast towards the small figure in front of the court.
Is this a childish fallacy? Or is the prince going to court today to listen and want to stand out?
Zheng Yunhe and other members of the aristocratic family were shocked, and at the same time they turned their attention to Li Chengqian.
Followed.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being shallow, just half a day? Isn't the prince lying? The entire Ministry of Works is unable to coordinate at the same time, how can the prince coordinate the accounts of the entire Ministry of Works in half a day?"
Now that he had the opportunity, Zheng Yunhe took a step forward and spoke again.
In his opinion, even if ten of Chang'an City's top economics and calculations students were summoned here, it would be overwhelming to count the messy numbers recorded by the Ministry of Works.
Are you a childish person who threatens to coordinate the accounts of the entire Ministry of Works in half a day?
If you don’t complain, who will you complain about?
Zheng Yunhe, who had seized the opportunity, would not let it go.
Li Chengqian turned around unconvinced, and the little figure couldn't help but curled his lips and hummed.
"Just because you can't do it doesn't mean that I can't do it. There are capable people in this world. If they can do it, what about you?"
Zheng Yunhe was startled by the sudden appearance of a different kind of confidence in that small figure.
However, Zheng Yunhe's face gradually showed a kind smile and he said.
"Since the prince is willing to bet and fight with me, I naturally have nothing to do with it. Since there are bets, there will be consequences. I hope that if the prince loses, he can study books behind closed doors in the East Palace for ten days~"
Zheng Yunhe said that he was ready to advance and retreat, but he also openly took care of the prince's face, and even said that he was "the prince, I am doing it for your own good".
If you lose, you just study for ten days?
You still show the way of a monarch and a minister, but now you can't control my words.
"Okay, as you said, if you lose, when the time comes, you give me..."
Li Chengqian said while thinking about the bet.
Finally, a little finger.
"When the time comes and you lose, you will go to court the next three times and just stand there!"
Li Chengqian pointed to the direction of the row of gates of Tai Chi Hall.
After Zheng Yunhe took a closer look, his old face immediately stiffened.
In the Tang Dynasty, the position of officials in the court was determined by their rank, with civilian officials on the left and military attachés on the right.
The direction Li Chengqian pointed was towards the end of the Taiji Palace civil servants. Beside a palace pillar, there were officials of the fifth rank of the capital standing everywhere.
A few steps further out, you will directly become a palace guard guarding the door.
Although it is natural that the palace guard of Tai Chi Palace is not suitable for ordinary people, but letting him stand there is somewhat murderous and heartbreaking!
"How about it? Do you dare?"
All the ministers were silent and dared not speak. When the gods fought, they had no choice but to shut up.
Only high-level bosses like Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui are qualified to watch the show.
In the end, since it was Zheng Yunhe who said the words, there was only the next step.
Looking back, he said with a slightly stiff expression.
"Okay, according to what His Highness said, if His Highness really has this ability, it will be a blessing to the Tang Dynasty! What if I, this old bone, just stand there for a month?"
When speaking in the court, it is natural to appear impeccable and to say thank you very much.
But Li Chengqian curled his lips and said: "In that case, fine, if I win, you can stand there for a month——"
Zheng Yunhe:......
A group of ministers:...
This prince really doesn't play by the rules...
After following Tang Sufan for so long, how could the naturally talkative Hun Bu stingy be at a disadvantage?
Last time, Li Chengqian learned how to light a fire in front of Tang Sufan because of his harp. He opened his mouth and was arranged to burn a fire in the kitchen for ten days.
According to Tang Sufan’s words, it’s best not to be too hypocritical as a person~
At a young age, Li Chengqian learned that he would naturally not tolerate your pretentious habits.
"Half a day? Gao Ming, please think carefully. This court is not a place for you to talk nonsense. If you talk nonsense, don't blame Father for severe punishment!"
At this time, when the bet was concluded, Li Shimin spoke in a deep voice.
However, the calculation that Tang Sufan gave to Li Chengqian was already seen from Li Chongyi last time.
For his own son, he is naturally confident. If he says half a day, it will probably last half a day.
When the time comes, you can get a foothold in the family tradition, and you can also show your ability as a heir apparent. Why not?
Therefore, Li Shimin was naturally very happy about this kind of bet.
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui smiled softly and looked at each other.
Just know——
His Highness the Crown Prince wants to show off.
Therefore, they naturally have to help pave the way.
Fang Xuanling took a step forward and said softly.
"Your Majesty, if the prince has such ability, he should be me, Tang Hongfu. This bet, in the opinion of my veteran minister, is a must!"
Du Ruhui hurriedly followed up: "Your Majesty, I also believe that this bet can be successful. If Your Highness wins, he should be rewarded. Your Highness will live up to his hard work~"
The excellent court applause is naturally online again.
"Hahahaha, bet, bet, your highness, I, Old Cheng, am on your side!"
Naturally, the lively groups in Cheng Yaojin's court couldn't miss this opportunity, and they all stood up to express their opinions.
It's not that they don't mind the excitement, but a few of them know about the magical calculation that Tang Sufan gave to his apprentice.
For a time, countless people watched.
Li Shimin waved his hand and said: "Okay, then I will make this bet. If the prince cannot clear the accounts of the Ministry of Industry in half a day, I will let him study hard in the East Palace for ten days. If the prince wins, Zheng Aiqing will... three days, three days Rishangchao stands at the bottom! How about it?"
Zheng Yunhe gave a slight salute: "Your Majesty has said so!"
If it weren't for Ming Ming's face, Li Shimin would have let this old boy stand there for the rest of his life.
At this point, the bet is done.
Then Zheng Yunhe asked.
"How will the prince plan to coordinate the liquidation?"
Li Chengqian looked at a pile of account books and reached out to take out one.
After briefly looking through it, he straightened his waist and said.
"The first ten chapters in this book are the amount of timber purchased by seven households in Lantian County under the Ministry of Works. I am the one responsible for the overall planning, so I would like to trouble Mr. Dai to summon a group of experts from the Ministry of Household Affairs. After I have made the calculation, they will check it! "
"If I can do the calculation accurately in a quarter of an hour, it will naturally prove that I have the ability to coordinate all the accounts in half a day. How about that?"
Zheng Yunhe still pretended to smile kindly and said: "Just follow what His Highness said!"
Ten articles, that is, twenty pages.
Zheng Yunhe also took a look at the extremely complicated numbers above.
A quarter of an hour.
I really don’t believe you can figure it out——
With Li Shimin's permission, Dai Zhou went down and summoned ten experts in liquidation and co-ordination from the Household Department, along with some planning tools.
The most common ones are rope counting and chip counting.
The knot counting method of counting ropes is to tie a knot on the rope to represent one system, and so on.
The calculation tool appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period and is the oldest calculation tool in the world.
According to the "Hanshu. Lvlizhi" records: the calculation chip is a round bamboo stick.
And what the household department uses is the tooth chip in the calculation of various materials.
Then, the waiter directly brought pen, ink, paper and inkstones with fine jade chips on them.
Due to Li Chengqian's height, the desk has reached directly to Li Chengqian's chest.
For a moment, the height of the figure combined with the desk was really unbelievable.
And Li Shimin, who had the best view, was sitting on the dragon chair, with a vaguely raised corner of his mouth.
Don’t panic, let’s wait and see my prince show off~
