Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 299;

Chapter [-]; Li Tai broke his promise

Li Shimin felt comfortable all over, so he relaxed and said with a smile;

"Wuji, you just said that there are three strategies, and you only said two, and you have solved the problem. I don't need to listen to the rest. I believe you will do well."

Changsun Wuji was praised for being comfortable, and bowed down respectfully;
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for agreeing. I have one more matter, and I want to report it to Your Majesty."

"Oh? What else is there, Ai Qing can speak slowly."

"According to the decree, a few days ago, I sent Dai Boyang, the son of Dali Temple Shaoqing Dai Zhou, and a member of the warehouse department, to Lantian to announce the decree, and he returned last night.

Today, I asked about the situation in Lantian, Dai Boyang replied, Li Dalang wanted to send [-] dou of baijiu to Chang'an, to stimulate those aristocratic families, and to make a decision with the rich and powerful. I think that this is a big matter, and I should report it to Your Majesty. . "

Although Li Shimin's expression was negligent and his face did not change, the shock in his heart was still very huge.

It seems that the 28 wine-making workshops have not been delayed for a day. It is estimated that they are going on nervously since the beginning of spring, and that evil obstacle is also working hard. Otherwise, where can they make tens of thousands of buckets of fine wine?

Yuan Tiangang's letter clearly stated that according to Yuan Tiangang's words, the brewing of wine should be able to help him resolve the predicament of the drought. If he thinks this matter will be successful, it is nothing more than more or less things.

Li Shimin secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, which moistened his parched throat, before speaking;
"This time, [-] dou will be brought in. If it is sold, wouldn't it mean that the wealthy households in Chang'an will be raided?"

Changsun Wuji explained with a smile;
"Your Majesty, according to the previous plan, no matter how much wine is brought in this time, it will serve as a deterrent, intimidation and lure. How can it be sold?"

Even though Li Shimin knew everything, he still couldn't help but want to test it out. The answer he got now was still that he couldn't sell it, and he was very disappointed.

However, for the sake of big things, I can only bear with it, and if I can't bear it, I can mess up the big plan, but I can't destroy the plan. Although that can solve the urgent need, but in the later stage, the court will lose more, and the loss will not be worth the loss.

"Well, yes, what Wuji said is true, just follow the plan you set, I won't say more, so as not to spoil your good deeds."

"Yes, Your Majesty, this matter has been clarified, and the minister resigned. The Ministry of Household Affairs still has a lot of official affairs to deal with, and the minister dare not delay."

"allow."

"Yes, Wei Chen retire."

The eldest grandson Wuji got the compliment and left the study happily to go to the household department. He was walking when he bumped into Ye Qingzhi who was going back to the bedroom.

Ye Qingzhi had seen Changsun Wuji a long time ago, and deliberately walked slowly, just to talk to the queen's natal family.

"My servant pays homage to the eldest grandson Shangshu."

"Oh, which one should I be? It turns out to be Qingzhi. How is your highness?"

"Returning to Shangshu, His Highness has been worried about the emptiness of His Majesty's private treasury in the past few days, so that he can't sleep at night, tossing and turning, and his body is not healthy."

"Hey, the affairs of the imperial court are indeed a bit of a top priority. However, there will naturally be important officials to worry about. I also ask Your Highness, the Queen, to relax and take care of your body. It is serious."

"Yes, the servant must bring all the words of the Shangshu."

Changsun Wuji, looking at the slanting sunlight, suddenly realized that the patron saint of his childhood was also old.

Recalling the scene when Ye Qingzhi played with his two brothers and sisters when he was young, Changsun Wuji touched the emotional factors deep in his heart,
The eldest grandson Wuji, who is devoted to fame and fortune, only has gratitude in his eyes at this moment...

"Uncle Qing, you're getting old too..."

Ye Qingzhi didn't care that Changsun Wuji had mentioned the old title many years ago invisibly, and only sighed and said;

"That's right, the slaves are getting old too. What Shang Shu said before is right, who can resist the ravages of time, no one can resist..."

At this moment, Changsun Wuji regained the feelings of a normal person, and became flesh and blood;

"Uncle Qing, you have been loyally guarding His Highness's side for decades, and you have made a lot of contributions.
Everyone sees it in their hearts, even His Majesty has nothing bad to say to you.

Every time I mention you, I can't praise you enough, I am also grateful, and I know it well, my eldest grandson family owes you Ye family too much..."

Seeing that Tangtang Shangshu called him Uncle Qing again, Ye Qingzhi hastily tried to persuade him;
"God, you little gentleman is not what you used to be. Why do you call me this? If someone listens to it, what should you do, what should you do..."

Changsun Wuji stepped forward and grabbed Ye Qingzhi's shoulder, held it firmly, and said in a deep voice;
"Uncle Qing, I'm not afraid. What are you afraid of? When we met bandits back then, if you two brothers from the Ye family hadn't tried their best to rescue and stop those bandits, the eldest grandson's family would probably have been destroyed for many years. How could it be so prosperous today?" , Sister She also went to the underworld long ago, how can she be the mother of a country today?
Your elder brother died on the spot in exchange for the eldest grandson's family. Today, you were hacked seven times by those thieves and covered in blood. Do you think our eldest grandson's family has forgotten the past? "

Ye Qingzhi, who was caught by the eldest grandson, also burst into tears when he heard about the past and the death of his elder brother. When the eldest grandson Wuji questioned him, he realized it and quickly replied;

"Xiao Langjun, you know me, how could I doubt your thoughts?
When Ah Lang was about to leave, he entrusted you two brothers and sisters to me and asked me to take care of them as best I can. I dare not forget each other in the past few decades.

I also tried my best, and I don't owe anything to A Lang after a hundred years, but it's a pity that A Lang didn't last until the next day..."

Changsun Wuji was also very excited, thinking of his own Aye, before leaving, he told himself to treat the Ye family kindly, Changsun Wuji immediately said;
"I know, I know, I know it all, let's not mention those old things.

I will take good care of your two children. For the time being, let them study in the ministry for a few years, and when they are mature and calm,

I will arrange for them to go out alone. Don't worry about it. I will take care of them all their lives.

Just like you take care of our brothers and sisters, my eldest grandson Wuji will do what he says, so you can just rest assured. "

"Where is Shang Shu talking, I have never worried about those two bastards, with you here, I never have to worry.

I watched the two of you grow up, how can I not know your nature, okay, okay, you and I have been talking for too long, this place is still in the palace, you go quickly, I don’t want others to see you like this. "

Changsun Wuji hummed before turning to leave, and Changsun Wuji, who was about to leave, turned around again;

"Forget it, just now you said that Her Royal Highness can't sleep and is sick, I am also very worried about her, and you said that she is worried all day long, I am also worried about it,
Just tell Her Highness the Queen for me, and say that within a few days, Li Dalang from Lantian will bring thirty thousand buckets of baijiu from Chang'an, so His Highness should relax when he comes. "

Ye Qingzhi, the chief servant, suppressed her heart that was about to jump out of her chest, and replied calmly;
"Yes, I'm going to report to you now, the servants are going to go slowly, and the servants are respectfully sending the Shangshu..."

Seeing the eldest grandson Wuji leaving, Ye Qingzhi turned around and left without saying a word, leading two of his subordinates, rushing along like the wind.

I sighed in my heart, it really was not in vain to wait today, such an important event came, [-] dou, should be able to let His Highness sleep peacefully, right?

Hastily entered the main hall of the queen's bedroom, Ye Qingzhi bowed and saluted;

"Slaves see Her Majesty the Queen."

Empress Changsun was playing with her two sons and one daughter, and said without raising her head;
"I've come back to my own palace, why are you still paying attention to those hypocrisy, hurry up and get rid of the courtesy."

"Thank you, Your Majesty the Queen."

Ye Qingzhi changed direction and bowed again to nine-year-old Li Chengqian;

"My servant pays homage to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Nine-year-old Li Chengqian said in a childish voice;

"Excuse me, the sugar figurine I want, have you bought it?"

"Return to Your Highness, the servant has been brought here, why don't you take it?"

Ye Qingzhi turned to look at the two servants beside her, and ordered them to send the three sugar figurines over.

The three little guys, Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li Lizhi shared a candy figurine with each other, and they had a great time eating it.

Li Tai licked and ate the candy man, and asked casually;
"Night manager, why don't you buy a few more to eat, this one will be gone in a while."

"This……"

Ye Qingzhi looked at Li Tai and then at the queen, really not knowing how to answer.

Empress Changsun immediately put a dark face on her education;

"You wicked person, you know how many people in the world can't even eat enough rice porridge. You were born in the royal family, and you have enough food and clothing, but you still don't know how to be satisfied.

Now that there is a shortage of money everywhere, it is an extrajudicial favor to give you one, and you have just agreed to one for each person. Not only do you not keep your promise, you are also greedy to this point,

Judging by your appearance, when you grow up, you are also a repetitious villain, and you are still domineering and dissatisfied. If it goes on like this for a long time,

In the future, you will definitely destroy your own future. If you don’t teach you a good lesson today, you will cause many disasters in the future. Come on. "

The two maids in the bedroom quickly stepped forward and agreed;
"The servant is here."

"Punish Qingque Nurse's money for three months, and tell her to have a good memory, so that she can be disciplined in the future."

"According to the order."

Empress Changsun remained expressionless, she turned her head to look at another court lady and ordered;
"Take him down, whip him three times, and let him know that one must keep one's promises, and one must avoid being greedy and dissatisfied. If anyone dares to protect in private and be merciful,
Bengong will kill her today, pull her out, and after whipping her, send her back to his own room and hand her over to his wet nurse. "

"promise."

The maid agreed, and came to pull the eight-year-old Li Tai. Li Tai, who had been frightened for a long time, waited for the maid to approach, and then realized that he had caused disaster, crying and shouting;

"Empress, please forgive me, please forgive me, I won't dare anymore, I won't dare anymore..."

The palace maid also couldn't bear it, she held back Li Tai and did not go out, she glanced at the queen again, hoping that the queen would let the eight-year-old prince go.

Empress Changsun was not very angry at first, and it was normal to give children a few whips to educate the children, but when the palace maid looked over, she couldn't help being angry and shouted sharply;

"Why are you still dawdling, your skin is itchy, and you want to taste the taste of the whip?"

The palace lady hastily replied;

"The servants dare not, the servants dare not."

The palace maid didn't dare to delay any longer, she picked up the crying Li Tai and walked out.

Li Tai, who was hugged in the arms of the maid, held the sugar figurine tightly in his hands, and shouted at the top of his voice;

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, woo...wow...I dare not, wow...ah...my lady...

Li Chengqian, who was sitting well over there, licked the candy figurine in his hand like a normal person.

Seven-year-old Li Lizhi, seeing her elder brother being caught and whipped, was so frightened that she didn't dare to say a word, and just kept her head down and just ate her own food.

Empress Changsun looked at Ye Qingzhi and said casually;
"What, but something to report?"

"Yes, when the servant just came back, she met the eldest grandson Shangshu, came out from the study of the Holy Majesty, the servant waited for the Shangshu to approach, and greeted him.

Shangshu asked his servants to report to His Highness, he should pay attention to his body, and said that the court affairs should be handled by his important ministers, and asked His Highness to take care of himself. "

Empress Changsun sighed softly;
"Oh, I don't want to worry too much, but seeing His Majesty restless, I feel uncomfortable in my heart, and I can't help thinking about it every day."

"Your Highness, the eldest grandson Shangshu has another sentence, asking the slaves to report to His Royal Highness the Queen."

Empress Changsun looked at Ye Qingzhi with an extremely excited expression, she knew it must be a good thing, and cursed with a smile;
"Seeing how happy you are, tell me, what else is there?"

Ye Qingzhi replied with a hippie smile;

"According to the order, Shang Shu turned around just before he was leaving, and asked his servants to report to His Highness, saying that Li Dalang from Lantian is going to transport wine to Chang'an in a couple of days, and the amount is still as much as [-] Dou."

When Empress Changsun heard that she was going to bring thirty thousand dou of baijiu at a time, she exclaimed;

"What? My God, it's going to bring thirty thousand dollars, don't you get me wrong?"

Ye Qingzhi hurriedly explained carefully;

"His Royal Highness, this servant listened to you sincerely, and every word is not bad. What the Shangshu said was [-] dou. I still watched His Highness worry and feel sorry for His Highness all day, so I told this servant, and said that this time, His Highness Listen, you should be able to eat and go to bed in peace."

Empress Changsun stood up and said to the two little people;
"Chengqian, Lizhi, you all go back, the empress still has things to deal with, so let's stop here today and come back another day."

The two villains stood up, bent over their luggage, and said in a childish voice;
"Yes, I'm leaving."

"Go. Somebody, return them to their wet nurses and take them away."

"promise."

The two maids agreed, came up and took their little hands, and left the bedroom.

Li Chengqian and Li Lizhi discussed on the way;

"Lizhi, why don't you go play with me for a while, it's still early anyway."

"I don't want it, brother, you just want to trick my sugar man, don't think I don't know, I won't go, I want to go back and find the nurse..."

Li Chengqian looked at it and couldn't coax him, so he gave up his careful thinking, and was a little embarrassed, so he could only mutter;
"I'm your big brother, I should eat a little bit of candy from you..."

Empress Changsun looked at the two little people who had left, and listened to the conversation between the two, and couldn't help giggling...
