Chapter 285 Upward Court

When Sun Xiangfu returned to his new home, it was already midnight. As for this castle-like house, as the blueprint designer, he didn't need to look around to get a general idea of ​​what was inside.

"Uncle De, when you are old, don't stay with us young people. The whole house was designed by me, so I won't lose my way."

"Yes, yes, I won't suffer from it in the future. Isn't this the first time you have returned to the mansion, young master? Daoist Yuan specifically explained that after you come back, you should go to him, otherwise, there are many institutions and the like, afraid of you If it is not done well, it will be dangerous.”

Uncle De didn't say, Sun Xiangfu really forgot about this, but it's too late today, and he doesn't have time to look at those things. He has to hurry up and sleep for two hours, otherwise he is afraid that he will be careless when he goes to court tomorrow morning. Sleepy and fell asleep, now, his position is very dazzling.

Sun Xiangfu is still very satisfied with his master bedroom. It would be even better if the wooden sliding windows could be replaced with glass ones. The heating of the room is very good, and the servants have already prepared the bedding and the like. Yes, after Sun Xiangfu and Yu Xiuer took a hot bath, they did a lot of exercise before falling asleep sweetly.

It didn't feel like he slept for a long time, and Sun Xiangfu was framed by Chuntao and Hongmei. It felt good to be served by someone, and he didn't need to open his eyes. Someone helped him finish washing and dressing. In the carriage, Sun Xiangfu After squinting for another quarter of an hour, they arrived at the gate of the imperial city.

The ministers who have the qualifications to go to court will rush to the gate of the imperial city to gather early, and many of them will be like Sun Xiangfu, the cat sleeps in the carriage, but Sun Xiangfu's return to the cage is interrupted by Wei Zheng.

"The door hasn't opened yet! Mr. Wei, hurry up and get in the car and sit down."

"Sun Dudu is a person who knows how to enjoy, but the old man will not be disrespectful."

Sun Xiangfu's carriage is relatively luxurious, and its comfort is definitely the top in Chang'an. After Wei Zheng took a look at the interior of the carriage, he couldn't help but look down on Sun Xiangfu, but he also thought of the idea that the rich should not be extravagant that Sun Xiangfu proposed earlier. , the theory of how the poor make money, suddenly felt better.

After taking a seat in the spacious carriage, Sun Xiangfu poured Wei Zheng a cup of hot milk tea and said with a smile, "Yesterday, I also thank Master Wei for his help."

Wei Zheng didn't delay Sun Xiangfu's upside-down milk tea. Having drank it for a while in Shanyang, he misses the taste very much now, so he took a few sips before saying, "The old man's rank is lower than yours now, and he can no longer be your Sun Dudu My lord’s title, I’m looking for you now to tell you that there are many ministers who have impeached you, and this old man followed suit.”

"Where, where, Mr. Wei is an elder. Even if he doesn't have an official position, I should call him that. By the way, are you scolding me hard enough? Not hard enough, I won't thank you." Sun Xiangfu answered with a smile.

"The old man knows that you are deliberately offending others, giving excuses to His Majesty, and erasing your achievements, so this time, the old man used all the words he could think of. After the matter of Xue Yantuo's department is resolved, you can wait Let's be scolded by everyone!"

All the wrangling in court is purposeful. Those who impeached Sun Xiangfu did not want to push him down, but wanted to give him some warnings and lessons so that he would not easily touch other people's interests in the future.

Sun Xiangfu is happy to see this. He was appointed as the Duke of the county when he was less than 20 years old, and he also got a second-rank real-time official position. He is too dazzling in the court. For a period of time in the future, he intends to keep a low profile. This time, he planned to bear all the saliva that was about to attack him without any resistance.

However, for such a small matter, it is impossible for Wei Zheng to come here to have a private chat with Sun Xiangfu. He came to Sun Xiangfu mainly to talk to him about the reform of Yushitai.

That's right, in just one night, he got wind of some news that was discussed at the dinner table in the Imperial Study Room yesterday afternoon. It may be that Wang Gui released the news, or it may be that Li Shimin himself released the news, wanting to see all parties involved. Reaction.

Among them, he is most concerned about the affairs of Yushitai, which Wei Zheng is in charge of.

"Master Wei, the local officials in the Tang Dynasty have too much power, which is a great harm. While controlling the civil affairs, they also have judicial power, so that these officials can use their power to entrap the people wantonly. All the serfs from the big family moved to Shanyang, and they took action immediately, and even dispatched you to patrol the various places before they suppressed the place. This phenomenon is caused by the unrestricted power of local officials .

Therefore, whether it is the civil system or the reform of supervision, the purpose is to put a layer of lock on the power of officials, so that it is even more difficult for officials who are under the supervision of the whole people to do things that harm the people."

Hearing this, Wei Zheng was silent for a while, nodded and said, "I never imagined that you, the highest-ranking magistrate in the Tang Dynasty, would be able to say such words. Anyway, as the chief admonisher, I will give you another helping hand!"

In later generations, although the public security system cannot completely eradicate corruption, it can guarantee that officials will not harm the people to a large extent. In this era, if this new system can make officials less harmful to the people, that will be enough.

Hearing Wei Zheng's solemn promise, Sun Xiangfu cupped his hands and gave him a deep bow. Only Sun Xiangfu knew the significance of the citizenship system and judicial reform to the Tang Dynasty, and he was supported by Wei Zheng. Policies will be implemented more smoothly.

After a while, the gate of the imperial city opened, Sun Xiangfu and Wei Zheng got off the car together, and many old acquaintances also greeted him at this time.

"Zhengming, is the song and dance performance of that girl from Dongzhu starting today? You need to reserve a good seat for the old man." Yu Chigong is now a god in the court, and Li Shimin will not use him to fight if there is nothing to do. As long as he goes to the court early, he will Dozing off in the team of generals, it seemed that he was also willing to show a little enjoyment in front of Li Shimin, and walked to the side of Sun Xiangfu with two strides from the crowd.

"Stay, stay, the court is over today, everyone, let's all go to Wangjiang Tower to get together!"

While joking, Sun Xiangfu also greeted several of his relatives, but he didn't know how Yu Chigong would feel when he learned that his son was also one of the performers.

"I'm afraid that many officials will impeach you today, so keep calm." Qin Qiong reminded Sun Xiangfu in a low voice.

"Don't worry, Mr. Yi, I've made preparations a long time ago. By the way, the previous letter asked several major shareholders to raise cash. How are your preparations going?" Sun Xiangfu gave Qin Qiong a reassuring look and asked again.

"Including the money you returned, the cash reserve of each family is no less than 30 guan, which should be enough!"

After all, the upstarts like Qin Qiong are not as good as the wealth of those aristocratic families. Sun Xiangfu told them that they have a new investment plan and asked them to raise money from multiple sources, which means a net worth of about 30 yuan. 200 million hits.

"Why, your new plan is big?" Yu Chigong asked in a low voice, looking around with sharp ears and mischievous eyebrows.

Since Yuchi Baolin went to Shanyang, the iron shop has made him a lot of profit, plus his family's original money is more, this time, he bought almost 50 guan, ready to join Sun Xiangfu's new project.

"To build a purely industrial new city in Guanzhong, do you think the investment will be large?" Sun Xiangfu said with a smile.

In terms of population and labor force, Guanzhong is always the most important. Some industries that require a large number of manpower are most suitable to be placed in Guanzhong. The positioning is very accurate, specializing in domestic demand, and the industry of Anbei Duhufu is for land export. After that, Lingnan will become an industrial zone for overseas export, and there will be no competition with each other.

"This time, don't forget about the old man."

Not only Yu Chigong but also Hou Junji had sharp ears. As a family of officials and officials, his family background is also very strong. Of course, when he cooperates with Sun Xiangfu and his group, he may not be looking for money. With the support of this group, If his daughter succeeds in being promoted to the crown princess, or the future queen, his status may be even more stable than the current eldest grandson Wuji.

"It must be, the more the better!"

Military generals are good at conquest, but the way Sun Xiangfu wants to go is to develop the economy and promote national integration, so as not to fight, but to defeat others. As for having nothing to do, it is necessary to run out and look for something to do.

But if you want to get a project up and running quickly, spending money is a must. Sun Xiangfu welcomes investment from all sides, and of course he will not reject Hou Junji.

Soon, Sun Xiangfu made an agreement with several related households to form a bureau a year ago to discuss this project together.

The road from the Imperial City Gate to the Tai Chi Hall is not too far away. After a while, people flowed into the hall and stood in line according to rank. Li Shimin, who was wearing a dragon robe, stepped up to the hall. purpose.

Yi Nan, the leader of the Xueyantuo tribe, was granted the title of Pearl Vija Khan, who guarded the land of Mobei for the Tang Dynasty. He was allowed to build a khanate in Mobei to manage the people.

Feng Yinan's younger sister, Dongzhu, is Princess Yongle. In the afternoon, a state banquet was held in Wangjiang Tower to entertain her.

At this point in the imperial decree, the matter of Xue Yantuo's department has basically come to an end. Then, Li Shimin asked the Ministry of Rites to discuss his merits, and rewarded Sun Zhengming, the meritorious minister who lobbied Yi Nan to be a minister. At this time, Wei Zheng was not surprised. jumped out.

"The minister has his own play, and Sun Zhengming, the governor of Anbei, is domineering..."

Wei Zheng's vocabulary is really huge, and he read more than a dozen sentences of four words and four words, and all of them are derogatory words. The 20 Turkic captives who came back were sent to Shanyang. Not only should they not be rewarded, but they should also be punished.

In the court, 20 to [-] percent of the officials seconded the proposal and asked Sun Zhengming to return the [-] captives.

Sun Xiangfu naturally refused to admit it, insisting that those Turkic people were the people of the Anbei Protectorate who were taken captive by Jieli. They would rather lose their officials and titles than give justice to those people who have returned to Shanyang and reunited with their families.

Li Shimin had no choice but to ask Jieli to go to the palace to ask, and Jieli, of course, answered according to the words he had agreed with Sun Xiangfu before. Now he is a grass without roots, and he dare not offend Sun Xiangfu who is backed by the emperor.

As a result, Wei Zheng was not found guilty of most of the crimes he committed, but he was domineering, did not report to the emperor in advance, and was still labeled as acting on his own. In the end, Li Shimin not only failed to reward him for his great achievements, but also punished him One year's salary, which is regarded as punishment for Sun Xiangfu.

　I finally saw Wanshou again this month, and I was very excited. Thank you very much for the reward who brought ** on the plane, and bowed ninety degrees. At the same time, I would like to thank all friends who subscribed and rewarded during the Spring Festival. Although there are only 28 days this month, it is still running Going with the record of [-] total bookings, a small improvement compared to last month, but please vote for monthly tickets and recommended tickets, and strive to surpass last month in terms of votes.
