His Majesty had many instructions, and it was already dark when Li Daozong walked out of Xingqing Hall.
Thinking about what he has experienced in recent days, he feels that the clan is in chaos.
With Wei Ting being executed by everyone in his family, this matter is about to come to an end.
Li Daozong left Chang'an City, sat on his horse, and looked at the night scene in the distance.
The official road was very quiet, and the night wind blew in my ears.
Under the moonlight, I saw a group of soldiers standing not far away.
Li Daozong rushed forward and saw Li Tai and Li Xiaogong.
"What did your father say?"
"well……"
With a sigh, several people were speechless.
Li Tai said to his guards: "You all go back first."
The guards dispersed.
There were only three uncle and nephew left in front of me.
Li Daozong then said: "Your Majesty wants this matter to be settled as soon as Wei Ting comes here."
Li Xiaogong asked: "How about the East Palace?"
Li Daozong shook his head and said: "This matter has nothing to do with the prince. At least they did not get the prince's support."
Li Tai nodded and said, "People have been sent to capture Li Yuanchang."
"Well, that's it."
Li Daozong felt very tired.
Li Tai went to Lishan with Li Xiaogong.
The token of the East Palace is still in Lishan Mountain, and Zhang Yang placed it on the bookcase.
Li Yue frowned and looked at it, "It seems that my husband does not intend to return this token to the East Palace."
"It's really hard to be your father's son-in-law."
In recent days, Li Chengqian has been very distressed. After giving the token of the East Palace to Lishan, he did not return it. He said helplessly: "As expected, it should not have been given to him in the first place."
The guard in front of the palace came to report, "Your Highness, Duke Zhao is here."
Quickly walking outside the hall, Li Chengqian saluted and said, "Uncle."
Changsun Wuji looked solemn and said, "Your Highness, I have come to ask you something."
"Uncle, please tell me."
Changsun Wuji put his hands behind his back and stared at the prince's expression, "Is the conspiracy between Li Yuanchang and Wei Ting really related to your highness?"
Li Chengqian sat down and took out a volume of letters, "Li Yuanchang and the others did intend to make good friends, but they never said they wanted to rebel."
"That's good. The prince doesn't have to worry about the clan's comments."
"My uncle is worried. I wonder how he is feeling?"
Changsun Wuji stroked his beard and said, "It's much better now."
In the palace, the prince and his father-in-law hurriedly came to the palace from Lishan Mountain.
Li Shimin's eyes were gloomy, "How involved is the prince in this matter?"
The prince replied: "The old slave ordered people to investigate and found that the prince was indeed not involved. Many letters were found in the palace of the King of Han. The King of Han indeed wanted to win over the prince, but he had not yet had time."
"Yes, I understand."
Li Shimin let out a long breath and finally relaxed, "Go back to Lishan."
The prince bowed and saluted, "Old slave, please retire."
Li Shimin sat down again, held his forehead and took a few deep breaths, then coughed violently. The maid on the side handed him a bowl of hot tea.
After drinking the tea, I felt much more comfortable.
When Li Junxian walked into the palace, Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "Have you found Li Yuanchang?"
Li Junxian reported: "We have found it, and the official road to Tongguan has been taken."
"Well, he will be sent to Liaodong. I don't want to see him again."
"Here."
The emperor is cold, and so is the royal family. Under His Majesty's instructions again and again, a hidden danger was eliminated invisible.
He demoted King Li Yuanchang of Han to a commoner and then exiled him.
As for the accomplices in the Han Dynasty's fiefdom, they were all executed.
The people in the clan were frightened because of this.
There will always be a few who seek death. Who is he, Li Shimin, and who would dare to have second thoughts in the future?
The state of Tang Dynasty was once again supported in the precarious situation.
In Chang'an City, Li Zhi and Di Renjie watched Zhang Jianzhi hugging a blue-eyed Hu Ji. The Hu Ji also lifted up her clothes and deliberately teased her.
Zhang Jianzhi sank more and more.
Li Zhi turned his head and didn't want to look at this guy again. "If I help him again in the future, I will hit him to death!"
Di Renjie also said: "Anyone who can be swayed by women is a idiot."
The two walked back to Zhuque Street. Thinking of what happened recently, Di Renjie said: "The past two years have been really rough."
Li Zhi glanced at Gongsun Xiaoniang behind him, took the water cup from her hand, unscrewed the wood and made a round lid, "This is a new thermos cup made by Lishan. I still have it in the palace, let someone give it to you."
Di Renjie waved his hand and said: "Lishan's knowledge has said that there is a law of conservation. There is no cup in this world that can be kept warm for a long time."
Li Zhi smiled and said: "Of course it doesn't exist. This kind of sandwiched wooden cup can only slow down the loss of heat and maintain the water temperature of the water cup as much as possible."
In the free afternoon, Di Renjie found a balcony with direct sunlight and sat in front of the window, enjoying the warmth.
Li Zhi put his feet on a bench and lay on the chair with his eyes closed. "Now all the wine shops in Chang'an City have replaced them with chairs. It's great."
There were several students from the Hongwen Hall in the building discussing the imperial examination.
Gongsun Xiaoniang stood leaning against the door, sniffing at the sun and enjoying the warmth of this moment.
"Di Renjie, when do you plan to take the imperial examination?"
"It will take another three years to reach the age where I can take the imperial examination and become an official. I am only fourteen years old now, so I am not in a hurry."
Li Zhi smiled and said: "In three years' time, I don't know if the imperial examination will have a different look."
A woman brought tea and placed it on the table. She deliberately moved her body closer to King Jin, nodded and lowered her posture, and the loose skirt of her clothes fell down.
This scene was seen by Gongsun Xiaoniang.
But neither Li Zhi nor Di Renjie looked at her.
This woman had quite a few little moves. Gongsun Xiaoniang chuckled. She was really asking for trouble by acting like this in front of King Jin.
In July of the 16th year of Zhenguan, the Lishan factory's equipment was improved several times, and the facilities in the workshop were changed into equipment specifically used to produce rails.
The red iron bar is pulled out from the mouth of the stove and pulled under a large die-cast iron block. After die-casting, as the iron bar is driven, in the next step, two large rollers will repeatedly crush it until the iron rail is enough. Straight.
Yan Liben did not dare to adjust the speed of the train too fast, and found a balance between stability and speed. In this way, even if the rails have some potholes, the train can run smoothly as long as the train maintains a stable speed.
Even if there are occasional fluctuations, the rails will not be damaged. This is the experience gained in the past two years, and it can also leave sufficient operating margin for the workshop when casting rails.
On Lishan Mountain, Zhang Yang was still worried about the current market situation.
Li Yue looked at the current accounts and said nothing for a while.
Xiao Wu and Xiao Hui sat in front of their teacher and master.
Zhang Yang said: "The current operation is large enough. The market in Guanzhong is limited. If they don't expand the scale, they will continue to lower the price. We need to increase exports and increase the scale. If we don't increase the scale, we can only continue to lower the price and form involution." It will still be the ordinary working villagers who will suffer in the future.”
"My husband is right." Li Yue put down her glasses and rubbed her brows. "The exits in the Hexi Corridor alone are not enough, and the efficiency of goods exiting customs is not enough."
Judging from the accounts of Xiaowu and Xiaohui, all counties in Guanzhong are now clearing inventory.
Chang'an City has a population of one million, and supplies can barely be turned over. Counting the twenty-four counties of Zuofu in the Kanto region, it is not necessarily a good thing that all the huge productivity flows to Chang'an City.
"Xiao Wu, please bring us our personnel placement chart."
"Here."
Xiao Wu left in a hurry. He took out a chart from the library and spread it out on the desk.
Zhang Yang looked at the icon and whispered: "Let's arrange a sales team."
"How to arrange it?"
"Each county sent out manpower and sent people to travel throughout the Central Plains to sell goods in Guanzhong."
Li Yue hesitated and said: "There are traders in Zhongyuan."
Zhang Yang shook his head and said: "You can't rely on those traders. They don't have a fixed number of routes and no specific prices. They usually go to one place and use experience to judge the prices, and they are more difficult to control."
"If we can control the flow of goods, we can control the prices, collect the purchasing power of various states in the Central Plains, and adjust prices uniformly in the future. Price unification is even more critical. Goods from Guanzhong need to have a good enough reputation."
"First ship the goods out, and then arrange warehouses in various states to store the goods. This can increase the efficiency of circulation."
Xiaohui nodded solemnly, "Disciple will go write letters to the counties now."
Li Yue warned: "Use your master, Shangshu Zuo Cheng, to seal the letter."
"Um."
Xiao Wu and Xiao Hui went to arrange the next matters together.
Zhang Yang looked up at the blue sky, thinking about sleeping with him all afternoon without anyone disturbing his rest.
Xiaohui and Xiaowu drafted letters to each county together. Lishan did not participate in the specific matters and left it to each county to arrange it themselves.
Their workshop was built under the guidance of Lishan, and they can only handle the sales process themselves. Lishanshan Mountain will give them some guidelines, and how to implement them depends on the ability of each county to take action.
In this way, the fittest will naturally survive, and the difference between individual ability and team ability will soon become apparent.
First of all, Huayin County is the slowest.
Lantian County is doing the best.
This year's imperial examination results revealed that many people were eliminated.
Lishan graduated 800 students this year and will recruit another 1,000 students.
Many students who failed the imperial examinations found their own way out, some went to Lishan, and some went to various counties.
In line with Lishan, it is the recruitment of people with expertise in manpower to do their own expertise.
Each county must conduct assessments on goods dispatching and sales capabilities to select talents.
When production reaches a certain scale, the importance of capabilities begins to emerge.
Those students who failed the imperial examination entered Zhenguan Academy one after another, and Lishan came to absorb these failed students after the imperial examination.
Counties are also recruiting talents at this time.
In terms of attracting talents, not to mention Lishan, counties need talents in all aspects, and they have to fight with the DPRK and China to grab people.
In the face of the interests of survival and growth, the counties in Guanzhong will not look at the face of the court.
This year, Zhang Jianzhi finally passed the exam, but barely. The government gave him a position as a clerk in the secretarial department, where he could do chores such as sorting files and submitting documents.
Tian Khan would relax in Taiye Pond with Queen Changsun on weekdays.
At night, the forty-four-year-old emperor invited Cheng Yaojin, Niu Jinda, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong, Liang Jianfang and other generals to have a banquet at Xingqing Hall.
At the banquet, the officials drank wine and talked loudly about the past.
People in the Tang Dynasty liked to dance. Cheng Yaojin danced in the hall with his back as a tiger, and then Niu Jinda and Yuchi Gong also started dancing.
The scene was chaotic for a while, everyone was drinking to their heart's content, and the demons were dancing wildly in the palace.
Li Shimin and a group of military generals, wearing loose clothes, loudly sang the ballads of the year.
His clothes were soaked with wine, and he was laughing crazily.
The emperor is still an emperor, and he is as wild as an ordinary warrior. No one can stop him when he is unbridled.
Unknowingly, everyone is approaching fifty years old, and the generals also have many of the little problems of prisoners.
For example, Qin Qiong can no longer drink.
Yu Chigong's back was uncomfortable.
Niu Jinda dared not eat sweets.
In Lishan's words, these old generals are all old patients of Lishan.
…
Everyone is getting older, and they are no longer like when they were young, when they could have fun all night long, and then get on their horses and go out to fight the next day.
Now that everyone had been partying all night, their energy for the next day was obviously lacking.
Li Shimin woke up from drunkenness and saw all the military generals lying down together and falling asleep. He sighed deeply and felt extremely lonely in his heart.
After ordering someone to bring water for washing, a palace maid held a mirror and said, "Your Majesty, this is a newly made glazed mirror from Lishan."
"Liu Li mirror?"
The rear of the mirror appears to have been painted with oil paper and paint.
The face in the mirror was very awake, with clear facial features. Li Shimin could see the large pores when he looked closer.
The face in the mirror has sunken eye sockets, a bit of pale complexion, and a bit of blue under the eyes, a face that is extremely tired.
Li Shimin closed his eyes and asked someone to take away the glass mirror. After looking at that decadent face for too long, he wanted to slap him.
Finally, he resisted the urge to whip himself.
After washing and tidying up, he asked the palace maids and eunuchs to take care of the generals while he left first.
Today is the day of rest. Li Shimin plans to lock himself in the Manlu Palace. He doesn't want to go anywhere, and he doesn't want too many people to see his decadent face.
Another month of peaceful time passed, and the emperor also lived a lonely and unrestrained life in the palace.
All matters in the DPRK were handed over to the Zhongshu Province, and more and more memorials were sent to Lishan every day.
If there is a major event, the emperor is also willing to listen to advice or let the ministers discuss the government affairs.
Today, the prince's family came to Lishan.
Zhang Yang and Li Yue personally received the family.
Xiao Qingqing didn't want to play with the prince's son, and only Zhang Xin'an was willing to say a word or two to this cousin.
Li Yue pulled the princess and wanted to say some words of respect for herself.
"When will I return that token?"
Zhang Yang smiled and said: "The East Palace Token is still useful and cannot be given to the Crown Prince for the time being."
Li Chengqian looked troubled, "Please Lishan please don't use the East Palace Token for other purposes."
"Don't worry, Your Highness, we at Lishan will not go around with tokens to cheat."
"You said before that you would give it back to the orphan."
"When the matter is finished, it will be returned to the East Palace."
Li Chengqian smiled more and more awkwardly, and added: "Gu Ye never thought that Li Yuanchang would do such a thing."
