Tang Taizong is my elder brother

Chapter 38 Royal Courtesy
June 22, [-]nd year of Kaihuang.

In the hall of the state capital's back office, the fourth prince Yang Jun, who is known as "excellent literary talent, chic and moving", is sitting at the top of the head wearing a crown and dressed in fine clothes, waiting for the audience to grow up outside the door. The food merchants of the team.

The reason for queuing up is that the hall of the Hou Yamen is too small to accommodate only six businessmen at a time; the second is that every batch of wealthy businessmen must undergo a strict body search before entering.

Chang Sheng sat on the chair at the lower end, looking at the Fourth Highness who stood tall above him.

While lamenting the perverted degree of royal education, Yang Jun has to admit that Yang Jun's tone of voice, conversation, movements and even eyes are all perfect, which is different from the relaxed and casual look in the camp. At this moment, he interprets what is meant by "nobility" Graceful and personable'.

No wonder all these wealthy businessmen, who were usually cunning and mean, were sitting on the chairs with their hands on their knees and their backs straight.Respectful as if a primary school student is listening to the teacher's teaching.The intoxicated expression and blurred eyes perfectly interpreted their admiration for the royal family.

Changsheng just felt bored, whether it was accompanying leaders to meet important superiors in her previous life, or attending various international conferences, this kind of bragging of noble people was really common to her.

Dangling on the stool with two little legs, dipped his hands in the tea to draw on the table, and ate the cakes on the table when he was hungry. Anyway, he set up the stage by himself. Feel free to be a spectator.

Changsheng ate and drank tea, and suddenly felt sympathetic to the person lying in front of him.

This is a big fat man weighing more than 200 catties, surnamed Zhang, who owns two grain shops in Dongshi and Xishi.

After learning the news that the Fourth Prince was going to meet with local wealthy businessmen today, he came early.

Now it was his turn to salute, so he lay on the ground with his head on the ground, his buttocks sticking out high, the fat on his face began to shake, and his head was covered with sweat, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted after not doing this for a long time .Like a big, panting toad.

The fourth prince didn't seem to notice his ugliness, and after helping him up himself, he stood in place and looked around the crowd, saying:
"On behalf of the royal family of the Sui Dynasty, I received a blind date from the elders. Now that the ceremony is over, I am just a junior, so you don't need to be formal. All of you here are outstanding representatives of local merchants. This time I have everyone's help in raising food. Thank you so much."

"If this locust plague can survive smoothly, it all depends on your full support today. Gu's inspection of the Ganlong counties, only Fufeng County is the most impressive. Gu will return to Beijing tomorrow to list the imperial court and list you one by one. achievement."

"Today, I am grateful for the benevolence and kindness of all the gentlemen, and I have specially prepared small gifts to show my heart, in order to show the world the kindness and kindness of my Longzhou family."

Chang Sheng clapped his hands, and four soldiers came in immediately outside the door, standing murderously on both sides with the hilt of a knife in their hands, guarding an old man in the middle, who was his accompanying old slave.

This person now also changed into a servant's attire, holding a floating dust in his hand, and dragging a mahogany plate covered with a piece of red cloth.

The old eunuch walked up to the head of the crowd, and lifted the red cloth to reveal a stack of red leather documents and a wooden sign.

He opened the first document, and shouted to the fat businessman in front of him: "The prince's instruction: Zhang Dafu kneels to accept it!"

The businessman named Zhang Dafu had just stood up, before he could catch his breath, he fell to his knees at the prince's feet again with a plop: "Crap, Zhang Dafu, a grass-roots man, accepts the prince's training!"

"Gu heard that there is a rich man named Zhang in Wenshui County, Fufeng County, Longzhou. In the village of doing good, he has outstanding virtues. He is specially honored to teach the world. Now I give a wooden sign of 'good people' to show encouragement."

After hearing this, the rich businessman kowtowed to thank him again and again, his head almost didn't have a blood mark on the ground, his whole body trembled so much that he couldn't straighten up for a long time.It was only with a few sergeants pulling together that they managed to stand up.

When he got up, he saw that the man had already burst into tears and couldn't make a sound.

Yang Jun smiled and handed him a towel, and hung the wooden plaque on his chest himself. The bright red ribbon hung around his neck looked very festive. .

The old eunuch in front of him was afraid that he would faint from excitement again, so he hurriedly shouted: "Okay, Li Cheng!"

The rest of the rich merchants in the hall were dumbfounded, this fat man was always stingy, but for some reason he was so generous this time, he actually donated [-] shi more food than they did.

But with just two hundred shi of grain, he was given the honor of being granted a license by the prince and a family heirloom, which was a huge advantage.

Immediately, everyone couldn't sit still, and fell to their knees one after another. No matter how hard they persuaded them, they couldn't get up. They shouted: "There is still food and thousands of stones in the house. I am willing to donate it and do my best for His Highness."

Changsheng secretly thought that he deserved it. Didn't everyone shout "The landlord's house has no food left?", but now they all popped up again. I really feel jealous when I see others awarding awards.

If I didn't know that you are greedy, my plan would not be easy to succeed.But she also thought that this is not the time to be impulsive, so she immediately stood up and said loudly:

"Hey, everyone's words are wrong. The royal training card is only issued to those who are 'respectful and sincere', and it is not mere food and money that can be measured and exchanged."

Things are more expensive than expensive, and if the well-prepared training cards become a bad street, then they are of little value.

Fame and fortune, businessmen seek profit, and with profit, they want fame even more.With this big rich as an example, do you still worry about these people not obediently donating food?

Zhang Dafu was even more elated when he heard what Changsheng said, his chin was almost raised to the sky, and he took a figure-of-eight step with his hands behind his back, shaking like a living bastard and walking out.

Under the envious eyes of everyone queuing up at the door, they stayed for a long time before leaving satisfied.

As soon as he left the gate of the state capital, Zhang Dafu immediately ordered his servants to hurry back and bring another five hundred shi of grain.

So far, in just two days, Fufeng County has harvested a total of [-] shi of grain donated by merchants!
There is enough food for 3 people for a year, and the food crisis has finally passed temporarily.

In the evening, at the practice banquet held by state officials for Yang Jun, all the adults expressed their praise for the perfect performance of the fourth prince in the past two days.

While smiling, Chen Jun thanked all of you for your great cooperation, and at the same time promised to report everything you saw here truthfully to His Majesty. Please rest assured, all of you.

Under the long-sleeved and skillful reception of the fourth prince, all the adults felt like spring breeze.

The whole banquet was carried out in a joyous and peaceful atmosphere.

After drinking for three rounds and eating five flavors, Yang Jun got rid of everyone's entanglement and came to sit down with Li Yuan's family. Today, all three sons of the Li family including Ruyi were present.Needless to say, Changsheng, Jixiang has also made a lot of contributions in the fight against the epidemic.

It's just that today's protagonist is Yang Jun, so Chang Sheng was at leisure except for occasional toasts.

"Gu is the Duke's cousin. It is reasonable to say that he is your cousin. This time I came in a hurry and didn't have time to prepare gifts. You are the eldest nephew, so I will give you this jade pendant."

Yang Jun took a suet white jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Jixiang.

Jixiang was surprised and delighted, but he didn't even dare to speak.

Yang Jun grabbed his hand, put it in his hand, patted it lightly and encouraged him: "I have told you about you forever, and you have already become a father at a young age, so you must work hard in the future."

Jixiang nodded excitedly and looked at Changsheng gratefully.

Li Yuan hurriedly said, "Your Highness, it's too precious, how can he bear it at such a young age?"

Yang Jun waved his hand indifferently: "My cousin's words are different. When I visited Longshan Daying, the people there said that you not only practice everything, but also are easy-going and have no pretensions. It is true that you are so down-to-earth at a young age. How rare. How old are you this year, have you already enrolled?"

"Returning to His Highness, this son is ten years old this year, and has been in school for four years. He worshiped under Li Gang when he was in Daxing."

"Hey, that old gentleman is very strict. I suffered a lot when I was a child, haha, I still remember it fresh when I think about it now. In this way, the two of us are still from the same family. I gave this jade pendant to the right person today. It's gone." Yang Jun laughed twice, and took a swig of his wine.

Li Yuan quickly had a drink with him.

Yang Jun put down his wine glass, pointed at Ruyi, "This is the second son, it seems that he has never seen him before."

Li Yuan hurriedly introduced: "This is the second son of Weichen, whose nickname is Ruyi."

"Ruyi, nice name, did you ever go to school?" Yang Jun looked like a household checker.

"Second brother, like me, was self-taught at home." Chang Sheng stared at Yang Jun with his chopsticks in his mouth.

What are you going to give again?
Yang Jun fumbled up and down, but couldn't find anything. He was a little embarrassed, and suddenly had an idea: "This child is talented and intelligent at first glance. If he develops in the future, he must go to school."

Changsheng heard Yang Jun describe his second brother's talent and intelligence and spit out a sip of tea.

Looking at Changsheng's performance, Yang Jun also knew that he might not be boasting properly, and his expression was a little awkward for a moment. Li Yuan glared at Changsheng in his eyes, and quickly continued:

"What your highness said is very true. I also plan to let him enter school next year. I will use my baby name as usual, but it is not appropriate to use my baby name when I go to school. Your highness is famous all over the world. If you don't, I will trouble you to give him a baby name." Name, this is also an honor for the child."

Unexpectedly, Yang Jun originally wanted to like the child Changsheng. He had already found out that she didn't seem to have a big name. Everyone called her Changsheng on weekdays, so he wanted to take this opportunity to give her a name.The second son of the Li family was just asking casually.

Seeing that Li Yuan asked him to give the second child a name, he first looked at Chang Sheng and said, "What about you?"

Changsheng smiled and cupped his fists: "Thank you, Your Highness, Long En, but the younger one is already famous, and his name is Li Changsheng. The immortal touched my head and gave me longevity."

Yang Jun's eyes froze for a moment, and he fell silent for a moment. How could he compare to the name given to him by the immortal family.

Seeing that Li Yuan was in a bad mood, it turned out that he valued San Lang and wanted to give him a name, what should he do now?

At this moment, Ruyi suddenly shouted: "The elder brother and the third younger brother all have names, but I don't have one! No, I want to have a name too!" With her mouth pouted, she looked at Li Yuan with a very unhappy expression on her face.

Li Yuan said he looked at Yang Jun again, he was in a dilemma, he just spoke up, but the other party didn't agree.

Chang Sheng looked at his father, put down the jug quickly, bowed his hands and bowed deeply to Yang Jun: "Your Highness, please give my second brother a name!"

Seeing that Changsheng begged himself so much, Yang Jun had no choice but to settle for the next best thing. After thinking for a while, he said, "Nowadays the world is plagued by plagues and epidemics, and the people are suffering from them. I hope that Mr. Erlang will make contributions in the future and benefit everyone. Let me call you Shimin, Take the meaning of peace in the world and the peace of the people. What do you think?"

"Shimin? What a good name, son, you will be called Shimin from now on." Li Yuan had a joyful face.

Ruyi also liked it very much: "Okay, from now on I will be called Li Shimin!"
