Chapter 922 Results
Once Li Shimin's words came out, no one could change the result.

Moreover.

It's all over now, so there's nothing to object to.

Li Shimin was gone, Changsun Wuji and others could only look at Li Shimin's leaving back and sigh helplessly.

Although Li Shimin left, Changsun Wuji and others all went to Zhong Guihang.

Everyone looked at Zhong Gui with a kind of hatred and resentment.

Zhong Gui knew it in his heart.

Following Li Chongyuan's instructions, I will present the already drafted Tang constitution to Li Shimin during today's court meeting, so that the court can decide whether this Tang constitution is applicable to the current Tang Dynasty.

Before he went to court, he thought that he might be attacked by a lot of court officials today, but he couldn't help it.

He didn't want to be the second Shaoqing who guarded the gate in Judicial Temple.

He didn't want to be the Qian Le in Li Shimin's eyes.

Zhong Gui originally thought that these court officials rushed over to beat him up.

But did not expect.

He was prepared in his heart, but he found that a crowd of court officials flocked to him to see the Great Tang Constitution in his hands.

Changsun Wuji snatched the Tang Constitution from him, and snorted coldly, "Hmph! Zhong Shaoqing, you listen to Li Chongyuan, do you want to become the second Li Chongyuan too! Or do you want to be Li Chongyuan's pawn?"

"I don't dare. I'm just following orders. Besides, the Holy Majesty is very affirmed by the Tang Constitution, so I'm just doing things for the Holy Majesty. If Zhao Guogong thinks that what the Majesty said is wrong, Then I will be speechless." Zhong Gui had already made up his mind that he could only follow Li Chongyuan.

As for the eldest grandson Wuji in front of him, he is really not afraid.

Being beaten is a trivial matter.

But if you don't even keep your official position, and you have to suffer Li Shimin's disgust, this is something that every official does not want to happen.

He, Zhong Gui, is like this, and so are most of the court officials.

he knows.

In this court, as long as those few ministers are dealt with, the other court officials are basically headless chickens, or a group of gnats.

This is what Li Chongyuan told him.

Fang Xuanling went down and was taken away and locked up in Dali Temple.

headed.

Also Changsun Wuji, Gao Shilian and others.

If Changsun Wuji went down, or lost the right to speak, even Gao Shilian and the others might not say much.

more.

Li Chongyuan once said that he had spoken to Zhong Gui.

Even if the Guozijian sacrificed wine, he would only take advantage of it.

As long as Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji fall, the court officials in the court will definitely fall like a tree and the sun will be scattered.

Changsun Wuji snorted again and stopped talking.

Changsun Wuji understood.

If he talked too much and it reached Li Shimin's ears, he would definitely be suspected by Li Shimin.

Zhong Gui's words are so thorough, what else can he say.

Changsun Wuji took the Tang Constitution and left the hall.

The rest of the court officials followed suit.

But when they left, many people snorted at Zhong Gui, as if their snort could kill Zhong Gui.

in the hall.

In the end, only Zhong Gui was left.

Zhong Gui looked at the backs of the leaving court officials, with a smile on his face.

Immediately, Zhong Gui bowed to one of the servants and said: "Please also report to the servant, I have something to ask to see the Holy Majesty."

After the servant heard the words, he left the hall and reported it.

Soon.

Wang Li returned, "Zhong Shaoqing, please come with me."

Zhong Gui saluted and left with Wang Li.

Soon.

Zhong Gui met Li Shimin.

"I have seen this criminal law and civil law before. However, this time there are many improvements, and it is in line with my current Tang Dynasty. Tomorrow, you will present it to the court." Li Shimin casually flipped through Zhong Gui's original request today. Unexpectedly, Li Shimin's dismissal of the two laws presented by the court made him have to pass them to Li Shimin privately.

Zhong Gui saluted, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhong Gui left the palace.

As soon as he left the palace, he first went back to the Judicial Temple. After arranging some things, he immediately left the Judicial Temple and went to the Xiuzhen Workshop.

This made Qian Le, who was guarding the gate, very upset when he saw the shadow of Zhong Gui's carriage leaving, "Don't be complacent. One day, I will let you also guard the gate."

It has been several days since Qian Le was instructed by Li Chongyuan to guard the gate of Judicial Temple.

He wants to resist.

I also want to gather a group of court officials to defeat Li Chongyuan.

but.

Li Shimin said it all, he, Li Chongyuan can figure it out.

even.

Up to now, no one in this Judiciary Temple has been able to shake Li Chongyuan's status. Even under the countless attacks by court officials, and this time Li Chongyuan led troops to raid the prime minister's mansion, Li Chongyuan's status in the judiciary has not been shaken. The status of the temple.

Qian Le has been active recently.

He wanted to unite a group of court officials and bring down Li Chongyuan through his own activities.

As for whether it will be possible, no one knows.

But the protagonist is the protagonist, and some small supporting roles, small characters, can only be stepped on by the protagonist forever, and there is no chance of a comeback.

Zhong Gui went to Xishahou Mansion and met Li Chongyuan.

"Zhong Shaoqing, come, eat this and see how it tastes?" Li Chongyuan pulled a roasted sweet potato and handed it to Zhong Gui.

Zhong Gui took it numbly, looking at something with soot and dust in his hand, he was really speechless to Li Chongyuan, "Li Siqing, this is it?"

"Sweet potato, also called sweet potato. This product is produced in the Eastern Continent, and I brought it from the Eastern Continent to relieve the hunger and poverty of the people in the Tang Dynasty. You should taste it first to see if it is suitable for you." Li Chongyuan himself also chose I took one, peeled off the skin, and put it in my mouth. I enjoyed it very much.

After hearing Li Chongyuan's explanation, Zhong Gui was very curious.

He knew that Li Chongyuan had gone to the Eastern Continent, which was so far away that he could not describe it, and he heard that he brought back a lot of high-yielding grain.

Never seen it, but always heard about it.

even.

His family also asked him to ask Li Chongyuan for some high-yield grain so that he could send it back to his hometown to grow something.

But he has been unable to open this mouth, let alone open this mouth.

Zhong Gui took the roasted sweet potato and watched Li Chongyuan enjoy eating it. He quickly followed Li Chongyuan's example, peeled the skin, and put it in his mouth.

When he tasted the taste of roasted sweet potatoes for the first time, his eyes immediately lit up, "Li Siqing, this...is so delicious. This thing is delicious, delicious."

"It's delicious, right? It's easy to fart if you eat too much, but it can relieve hunger. Moreover, this thing doesn't choose the land, it can be planted at will, and the yield is huge. Twenty stones per mu is just a child's science. Just need After a few years of promotion, I believe that there will be no more hungry people in my Tang Dynasty." Li Chongyuan said.

After hearing this, Zhong Gui was shocked and said: "Twenty stones? This is an auspicious thing. Li Siqing, when will you promote it? At that time, I will also get some for my hometown."

Finally, Zhong Gui said what he thought should be said at the right time.

Li Chongyuan stared at Zhong Gui.

What Li Chongyuan dislikes the most is that officials in the court, or nobles, tell him to get some high-yield grain.

It doesn't matter whether you are noble or an official.

Which family has no more fields than the common people.

Which family will be short of money?
From top to bottom, they all took aim at Li Chongyuan's high-yield grain, and even did not hesitate to confuse the people to surround him.

Although after that time, no more siege happened.

But Li Chongyuan was still a little uncomfortable with Zhong Gui's sudden words, "Are you also interested in these high-yield grains?"

Li Chongyuan stared at Zhong Gui for questioning, trying to see something in Zhong Gui's eyes.

"Li Siqing, it can be said that there is no one in this world who does not like Li Siqing's high-yield grain. But in the eyes of officials, it is normal to love money, but it must be obtained in a proper way. As long as Li Siqing promotes it , Xiaguan will definitely come to Li Siqing to ask for some. Maybe Li Siqing doesn't know that Xiaguan's hometown suffers from severe drought every year. If there is this, Xiaguan's hometown elders will no longer have to worry about starving Although there has been no severe drought in the past few years, if there is Li Siqing's high-yield grain, at least the people will not have to panic or worry about severe drought." Zhong Gui didn't seem to notice that Li Chongyuan was staring at him Originally, he replied very calmly.

Li Chongyuan smiled lightly, "What Zhong Shaoqing said is true. There is food at home, so don't panic. However, high-yield food is still being cultivated, and it will take at least three to five years to promote it. However, next year, I plan to Lizhuang, Yuanzhuang, Liuzhuang and other ten nearby villages are conducting trial planting. After seeing how the trial planting is going, we will decide on the promotion."

Li Chongyuan didn't notice anything from Zhong Gui's face or expression, but he saw that Zhong Gui seemed to really cherish his elders in his hometown.

Even though he didn't find out, Li Chongyuan didn't hide it from him, and told him all about his plans for next year.

In fact, whether you talk about it or not, you can basically know it after the new year and the beginning of spring.

Moreover.

Li Chongyuan had asked the landlords of these Zhuangzi near Lizhuang to talk about it.

The specifics, although it has not been fully determined yet, Li Chongyuan will at least carry out trial planting in Lizhuang, Yuanzhuang and other places.

The area for trial planting must reach at least 50 mu in the north.

In the south, it must reach at least 50 mu.

Moreover, the types of trial planting are also diversified, not single.

after all.

Li Chongyuan has a lot of good things to plant.

For example, there are sweet potatoes, corn, peanuts, sunflower seeds, potatoes, pumpkins, cassava, etc. that are eaten in front of me.

Only huge data can support his analysis of Li Chongyuan.

Only the difference between the north and the south can we know where the yield will be high and where is more suitable for planting these things.

Although rice noodles are the main food.

But in a famine year, when the production of rice and noodles is reduced, these can make the people full, so that they will not be displaced, so that they will not be starved to death, and they will not be able to eat easily.

After hearing Li Chongyuan's plan, Zhong Gui praised it very much.

Although Li Chongyuan did not say when he would be given high-yield grain, in three to five years, he felt that he could wait.

Afterwards, while eating roasted sweet potatoes, the two talked about the affairs of the court.

Soon after.

Zhong Gui left.

Li Chongyuan continued to sit, "Tang Li, when we talked about high-yield grain just now, Zhong Gui said that he would also get some for his hometown. Have you found out whether he has selfish motives?"

"There is no abnormality. According to my investigation, Zhong Gui's hometown has experienced severe droughts in the past few years, and it has been slightly better in the past few years, so that the people can avoid forced food. According to what Zhong Gui said just now, it is possible I really hope that I can get some high-yield grain from you, Mr. Xiaolang, and return to my hometown." Tang Li shook his head and replied.

Li Chongyuan did not continue to ask.

Even Tang Li couldn't tell whether Zhong Gui had selfish intentions, and he, Li Chongyuan, certainly couldn't see it at all.

In terms of eyesight, Tang Li and the others are professionals.

a few days later.

A servant came from the palace.

Seeing the arrival of the servant, Li Chongyuan personally greeted him at the gate of the mansion, "I said that the magpies on this branch are screaming non-stop today, so the servant Dai is here."

"Marquis Li County, I don't think you should say that." Dai Neishi clapped his hands back.

When he entered the mansion, he sat and warmed himself by the fire.

By the way, eat sweet potatoes baked by Li Chongyuan.

Like Zhong Gui, Dai's waiter ate this kind of food for the first time, and he praised Li Chongyuan as if he was the only one in the world.

After the general complimented him, Li Chongyuan asked curiously: "Today Dai Neishi came to me, but what is the order from the Holy One?"

"There's no dispatch either. Isn't it the Chinese New Year? The Holy Majesty asked me to come and inform Marquis Li to attend tomorrow's court meeting." Said Dai Neishi.

When Li Chongyuan heard this, he remembered that it was the New Year.

Yes.

There are only two days left before the Chinese New Year.

Before the Chinese New Year, there will be a big court meeting, which is also the last court meeting of the year.

On this day, there were few discussions on state affairs, and all officials in Beijing were only allowed to participate in the court meeting. Whether they were recuperating at home due to illness, or came to Beijing to report on their work, or were unemployed, all of them had to participate in this big court meeting. discuss.

Li Chongyuan understood, nodded and said: "I almost forgot the date, it's almost New Year's Eve. You see, it's almost New Year's Eve, Dai Nei Temple came to me, and I'm not very prepared. Waiting for the New Year's Eve, if Dai Nei Shi If you are free, come to my house for a glass of wine."

"Haha, it's time to drink. After the Chinese New Year, the little duke will be full moon." Waiter Dai complimented.

Li Chongyuan nodded, "Yes, after the Chinese New Year, it's time for the full moon. When that time comes, you really have to drink this wine."

It was dawn the next day.

Li Chongyuan attended the court meeting in official uniform.

When the Great Court Conference begins.

Everyone bowed to Li Shimin and saluted Li Shimin, shouting all blessings.

But somehow.

At the last big court meeting every year, Li Shimin's face was not very happy for Li Chongyuan, but it didn't seem to be unhappy, which was completely different from previous years.

Sudden.

Wang Li took out a silk imperial decree, walked forward, coughed lightly, and proclaimed: "Li Chongyuan, the Marquis of Xisha County, has no reward for being demoted to the third rank and promoted to the third rank."

Listening to the imperial edict proclaimed by Wang Li, Li Chongyuan seemed a little baffled.

According to the imperial decree, because of Fang Xuanling's matter, his title was downgraded by three ranks, but on top of his previous achievements, he was promoted by three ranks again.

Return to Xisha County King.

At this time, Changsun Wuji's legs were about to move, but Wang Li suddenly took out a silk decree and declared loudly: "The left servant of the Shangshu shot Fang Xuanling, because he assassinated the clan king Li Chongyuan, he was dismissed from his post and honored. Downgraded to seven ranks, distributed three thousand miles, and served as magistrate of Qinjiang County in Qinzhou."
