Three whips break the father-son relationship, please call me prince

Chapter 253 The God of Wealth Li You Spends His Wealth
Before leaving, Li You dug the ground three feet deep.

Take away everything you can.

In his words, since you have come to this barren land and suffered several years of injustice, if you don’t take something away, then wouldn’t it be a waste of your trip?
But he took something away?
That almost stripped Songtsen Gampo's underwear clean.

The entire palace was emptied, even the pillars and beams were slimmed down.

"It would be unjust if the Tang Dynasty did not destroy such a prince."

Songtsen Gampo roared with impotent rage.

Li You happily led thousands of carts, stretching for more than ten miles, and left.

"With these things, Changan can walk sideways, but at least I won't suffer."

……

Li Chengqian is very busy.

Li Shimin was also very busy and didn't even have time to favor the beauties in the palace.

He sat at the desk, stroking his beard and scratching his face, looking at each plan and program.

Pick up the pen and write a few words from time to time.

"Your Majesty, this was sent by the prince."

When Li Shimin saw the large pile of memorials, he became very angry.

Prince, do you have to be so curt?

But he had to follow the roll, as it was related to the future development of the Tang Dynasty.

It is also Li Shimin's future great achievement.

"Let it go. Let it go."

Before I started watching, Fang Xuanling came and discussed a lot of things. As soon as he left, Changsun Wuji came again.

They are also discussing important matters.

"Your Majesty, the six ministries, nine officials and five bureaus have all been explained."

"When will we call for a meeting?"

Changsun Wuji asked.

Li Shimin dropped his brush wearily, took a deep breath, and said, "Let's ask the prince about this first."

"The heads of each department must be aware of this."

"No news can be leaked before it is officially finalized."

Changsun Wuji said: "I understand."

"Go."

After Changsun Wuji left, Li Shimin half-lay down with his eyes closed to rest. He opened his eyes and looked at the memorial on the table, then gritted his teeth and sat up with difficulty.

"Go ahead and do it. Just do it as hard as you can."

"Am I still afraid of you?"

Getting closer and closer to Chang'an.

Li You was full of confidence and was in an exceptionally relaxed mood, but he also became nervous.

"Is there any bad news in Chang'an?"

He asked Li Jingxuan, "Did you hear that the emperor scolded someone and the prince was in a bad mood?"

"I haven't heard of that."

Li Jingxuan thought to himself, you are afraid too.

"However, I heard that His Majesty, His Royal Highness, and the officials in the court are also very busy."

"Busy? Are you going to deal with me?"

Li Youxin brought it up.

Li Jingxuan looked at him strangely. If you are not the King of Qi, how dare you do that? You want the whole court to revolve around you, right?

His Majesty and the Crown Prince are busy dealing with you?
What a joke.

"Alas, I suffered a lot in Tibet, and now I am still..."

Li You felt that he was suffering a lot. He had endured several years in that damn place, Tubo.

When I come back, I still have to worry about my future all the time.

It's easy for me.

Arrived in Chang'an City.

Li You was very surprised to see the person who greeted him.

"Zhi Nu, why are you here?"

"Fifth brother, my brother is busy and cannot come, so he specially ordered me to come and greet you."

Li Zhi laughed.

"You have grown up, boy."

"Yes, following Big Brother, I have grown visibly under his influence."

After Li You had established a good relationship, he asked cautiously, "Brother, how are you feeling?"

"It's good to say it's good, and it's not good to say it's bad either."

"How to say?"

Li You had an idea, so he took Li Zhi's hand and put something in his palm. Li Zhi looked down and saw it was a beautiful jade.

"Brother's gift, keep it." Li You said, "I have prepared two trucks of gifts for you, and will send them to your house later."

"Don't be so reserved in front of your brother. I'll be angry if you do."

"Fifth brother, this isn't a good idea, is it?" Li Zhi said this, but he honestly hid his hands under his sleeves.

"Saying these things hurts the relationship between us brothers. Who are we to follow?"

"Fifth brother, what you said is..."

The two of them talked and laughed as they headed toward the city together.

"Don't worry, nothing serious will happen. Brother called you back this time for other arrangements."

"Father won't do anything to you either."

Li Zhi still gave Li You some reassurance.

"That's good."

Li You whispered, "Wait a minute, you lead three hundred carts to the East Palace."

"I will pay my respects to my father and queen tomorrow, and then go to pay my respects to my brother."

How many cars?
Three hundred cars?
Li Zhi's eyes almost popped out.

He was really shocked.

The prince sent three hundred carriages.

Then there must be more than enough at my father's place, right?

"Fifth brother, what did you do in Tubo, why ..."

He looked at Li You in shock.

In the past few years, we sent back no less than a thousand truckloads of goods.

This time it's another big deal.

Are you going to wipe out Tubo in one fell swoop?

Li You said complacently: "I didn't do anything, I just brought back some things."

"Don't think it's too little to give you two cars. I will remember you when I get good things in the future."

"Okay..."

The thousand-cart presence was huge, but Li You entered the city very low-key, and no one knew how much he brought back.

Li Chengqian was still writing the plan.

When Li Zhi came back and told him this, he was also very surprised.

"Three hundred cars?"

"He emptied out Tibet?"

Li Chengqian didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment. Wu Lang's eating style was a bit too exaggerated. "From my perspective, there must be at least a thousand carts."

"I really didn't expect Fifth Brother to be so fierce."

Li Zhi also exclaimed.

"Where is your Majesty?"

"Five hundred cars."

Li Zhi said: "Take a detour and enter from Xuanwu Gate."

"Neiku took it personally."

Li Chengqian couldn't help laughing, "Okay, I understand."

"Fifth brother said that he will come to see my brother after paying respects to His Majesty tomorrow."

"Let him be. I know what he means."

Li Shimin's fatigue was swept away, and he scanned the list with great energy, with the corners of his mouth almost cracking behind his ears.

The next day, when Li You came to pay a visit, he was particularly friendly and loving to this fifth son.

"Goro."

"You suffered in Tibet."

"Look at your face, your skin..."

"I feel so bad."

Li Shimin said: "Just go back to Chang'an and take good care of him there."

Li You was so moved that he burst into tears.

Five hundred cars, it was not given away in vain.

He finally felt the belated fatherly love.

"Thank you for your concern, Father. I don't feel any hardship, I just feel that everything is worth it."

"If I can help my father and relieve his worries, I am willing to die a thousand times."

Li Shimin held Li You's hand and patted the back of his hand gently. He looked pleased and asked, "Have you visited your mother?"

"I'll be there in a minute."

"That's good. Your mother always talks about you and misses you very much. Go see her."

"My son understands."

Not long after, Li Shimin heard from Concubine Yin that the Prince of Qi had sent thirty carriages, and he felt even better.

After Li You came out of the palace, he headed towards the East Palace without stopping.

Pay respect to the Taiji Palace first, then to the East Palace. This is the rule, and it cannot be violated.

"Goro."

"troubled you."

Li Chengqian couldn't help but sigh.

Li You's facial complexion suddenly changed, and you couldn't tell at all that he was a prince of noble descent.

The skin is rough and dry, and there is high altitude redness on the face.

In just a few years, he has become a completely different person.

"With my brother's words, my younger brother doesn't care about anything."

Li You grinned.

"Well, that's very encouraging. I hope you can stay in Chang'an and take good care of yourself."

"Yes."

After Li You paid his respects to the two palaces, he began to travel around Chang'an.

Meet Changle, meet Li Ke, meet Li Xiaogong and others.

He is also quite generous.

This person has one car, that person has two cars.

As a result, Li You gradually gained the reputation of the God of Wealth in Chang'an.

Those who don’t know might think that the biggest god of wealth in Chang’an is not Li Ke, the bank president, but Li You.

Li Chengqian knew all this and just smiled, not caring too much.

The bulk of the money was given to the two palaces, and it was Li You's prerogative to use the money he wanted as he wished.

As long as he is happy with the money he spends or gifts, that's fine.

"what?"

"The King of Qi sent a carriage of gifts?"

Changsun Wuji was very surprised. He didn't have much contact with Li You. He also heard recently that the King of Qi had returned to the court and was entertaining guests and giving gifts everywhere.

Unexpectedly, he was also involved.

This one made him a bit difficult.

Those gifts from the princes and princesses were nothing. He was a central minister, and it was inevitable that it would cause speculation if he rashly accepted the gifts from the princes.

However, when he heard that it was given to Chang Sun Chong, he felt relieved.

Chang Sun Chong is not in Chang'an, so it is reasonable to send him to your house.

"On behalf of Dalang, I would like to thank the King of Qi for his kindness."

Changsun Wuji had some, and Fang Xuanling also had some. Fang Yiai's share was sent to Gaoyang together with the others.

Gao Yang was transferred to the Duke of Liang's Mansion.

"This King Qi is really thoughtful."

Fang Xuanling was not too embarrassed. It was not nominally a gift to him, and it was not his only one, so there was no reason for him to refuse.

But when you take something from someone, you should still thank the person for what he/she has given you.

In a short period of time, Li You gave away all the princesses and prince consorts who were on good terms with the Eastern Palace.

"No, what do you mean?"

"Am I just missing something?"

Li Yuanchang said unhappily, "You sent me away with just one car. Who are you looking down on?"

"You think I'm that bad."

You are not bad, what you lack is your face.

Li You laughed unhappily and said, "Uncle Han Wang, how much more do you want? I didn't see you sending the rice paper in your hand to Tubo with your nephew."

"I used rice paper in Tubo, and I had to buy it at a high price."

"If you really want to argue with me, then your nephew will have a lot to argue with you."

After a dispute between the uncle and nephew, Li Yuanchang finally set his sights on Prince Teng.

This kid actually has this little bit of talent.

Why.

But Prince Teng also learned his lesson and converted the money into cash early on and deposited it in the bank.

Li Yuanchang was so angry that his teeth were itching.

Li You felt that Uncle Wang was unreliable and shameless.

No one would rush to ask for gifts.

When I was in Tubo, exposed to the wind and sun, you, the King of Han, didn't even bother to take care of me.

"I'm drinking today, I won't leave until I'm drunk, don't even think about running away, kid."

"Are you still afraid of me?"

As Li You stopped entertaining guests and giving gifts, Chang'an gradually became quiet.

The end of the year was approaching, and the attention of all civil and military officials would no longer be on the King of Qi.

What they need to focus on is the year-end grand court meeting and the goals for next year.
