Rule the Roost in the Tang Dynasty: 492 to Fang Xianzhong’s pit


Li Hong took Yan Lingbin down slowly from the carriage. Although he was used to life in the East Palace and even the imperial palace, he was not at all accustomed to the situation where people would salute when they got off the bus. m. The site with the most mobile phone traffic.

Looking at several court officials saluting to the prince, the officials behind him who are considered high-ranking officials in her eyes are only promises. At this time, they don’t even have a word to speak, they can only follow Behind the other officials, smiles and contentment echoed the conversation between His Royal Highness and the other two officials.

Although he was once known as an oiran, and was also the focus of literati and scholarly scholars, compared with the pomp in front of him, Yan Lingbin deeply realized how big the gap between power and reputation is.

I originally thought that the people I had ever met were all in this world. I never thought that I could stand with these people one day, and I was not an escort.

Yan Lingbin, Zhang Lushui and Jin Rongqi nodded to each other, and they knew each other. The three followed Li Hong's side, listening to the two important figures of the Tang Dynasty, and explaining everything about the Prince Wu's Mansion to His Royal Highness.

Wu Prince's Mansion, which occupies a quarter of the land, had its front and rear courtyards in ruins. The gardens and recreational areas that were originally built in the early years were all burned out by a fire.

After walking around the Prince Wu’s mansion, Li Hong asked faintly: "Has the Criminal Ministry finalized the case? Or is Jingzhao Mansion specializing in this matter?"

Although Fang Xianzhong knew that His Royal Highness was asking the question knowingly, but in front of many officials, he had to accompany the prince to perform the show, so he stepped forward and said: "Go back to your Highness, the day of the incident was Jing Zhao The government arrived first, and people from Jingzhao’s found out the cause of the fire, so the Ministry of Criminal Affairs and Dali Temple did not start the matter."

"Oh, have you checked it out then? What is going on?" Li Hong glanced at Fang Xianzhong and asked.

"This... Your Royal Highness, Master Zong Chuke, the chief official of the Jingzhao Mansion, is here for a while, what about telling you? The minister is a minister of the Ministry of Industry..."

"Okay, listen to you. I will be a prisoner. What's your decision? It’s not convenient to meet in the palace. Now I have brought you people. How can you rebuild on this ruin? , Let’s talk about it in detail."

Jiang Cheng Cheng hurried forward, took out several scrolls, and opened them with the help of other officials. Zhang Lushui and Jin Rongqi were also led by Yan Lingbin to the drawing.

They are the government offices in charge of the palace, palace buildings, the production of golden jade beads and emerald rhino elephant baby vessels, and the embroidery of leno satin horses.

So, if Li Hong wanted to build a mansion for Zhang Lushui and Jin Rongqi, and a leisure palace for his father, according to his father's intentions, it must be implemented through the Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of Engineering.

Yan Lingbin’s role has emerged at this time. He has stayed in the private sector, and has been to the homes of many high-ranking officials and nobles, and is now a member of the Donggong Palace. Although he has no experience in architecture, he is unique. His eyes could give Zhang Lushui and Jin Rong some advice.

Li Hong is not very concerned about this matter. What he has to do is to arrange the construction of the ruins after the spring begins before the father returns.

Anyway, it's all demolished. After a big fire, it will be more thorough. Just rebuild it. In this way, my father will be happy too.

After a short while, Zong Chuke came running out of breath, and after the salute, he said breathlessly: "Your Highness, forgive me, the minister is late."

Li Hong frowned: "What are you busy with every day? Where did you go in the morning?"

"The minister has not been in Chang'an these few days, and has gone to the surrounding counties, oh...it's hard to say a word." Zong Chuke shook his head and sighed, it seems that he has encountered some problems.

"Let’s talk about it, what’s the matter?" Li Hong was very curious. He watched the three women gather around the prison and discussed endlessly, so he sat on the shaft and looked at Zong Chu who was sweating profusely. The guest asked.

"His Royal Highness, now Chang'an has not enough food to eat. Grain production has decreased drastically in the past two years. Because of this matter, the minister has repeatedly negotiated with Sinong Temple, but they are unable to make progress. In the beginning, we did not grow grain and only grow cotton. Because the superintendents, the Sinong Temple, and the merchants have too much demand for cotton, the price of cotton has risen today. In order to make money, the people have left all the land unused and waited. I will plant cotton in the coming year. The minister went to the farm for inspection in the past two days, and there were no young crops in sight. If this continues, in another two years, I am afraid that the grain back to Luocang will be emptied." Zong Chuke frowned. I originally thought that planting cotton was a good thing, but I didn’t expect that the people would simply leave the land barren after the cotton was harvested in order to make more money, and did not plan to plant the next year’s crops.

Since Sinong Temple is facing the current food shortage in Chang'an and Guanzhong, no one pays attention to it. Instead, it encourages the people to grow cotton and abandon grain, hoping to buy more cotton in the coming year.

Li Hong sat on the cowl, dangling his legs, and asked strangely: "Isn’t it enough to plant cotton and wait for the harvest, and then plant other crops? Isn’t this already started?"

"His Royal Highness said it was quite true, but it could not hold back the high demand and the rising prices. In Zhou County, Chang'an, the people now only need to grow cotton for one season and want to grow more grain, but they are stopped by the Sinong Temple. The land requires cotton and grain at a time, which will provoke God. It will be like the year before. God will be angry. When it comes to harvesting the cotton, but the time is not fully mature, it has delayed the planting of food. So deliberately punish the people and prevent them from growing food."

"Nonsense, it is because even rain caused the cotton harvest to be a few days late, but it does not mean that the cropping season was missed." Naturally, Li Hong knew that the demand for cotton was increasing year by year, so he went to Anxi. At that time, a large number of planting has been promoted. The cotton that was originally obtained there, but now that it continues to promote planting, it has alleviated many of the current situation of cotton shortage in Guanzhong.

But I did not expect that there is still such a shortage of cotton today. Is this consistent with common sense? Or is it someone deliberately hoarding cotton, waiting to sell it at a high price? Or is there anyone who has too much food in the house? Sinongsi helps it sell grain at high prices by reducing the amount of grain grown?

But no matter what kind, it’s not as hateful and annoying as the superior Sinong Temple’s prohibition of the people from growing grain. After thinking about it, he said: "At this time, unless the gods are alive, it’s not right. Even if the gods are alive, they can’t make the fields grow green. , Now that you have lost a season, then forget it, wait for your Majesty to return to the court, now raise it up in the court, and then talk about it later.

"Yes, Your Highness, for the present plan, it can only be the case." Zong Chuke wiped his forehead and shook his headache.

"It will be a prisoner who needs a lot of cotton. Why does Sinong Temple stop growing grain? Because it will be a prisoner?" Li Hong asked curiously.

"This... the minister hasn’t checked it too clearly yet, but I’m afraid it’s for political achievements. After all, growing grain is not as good as growing cotton. Moreover, when the Qinghe Cui clan had a famine in Luoyang and Changan this year, they were There was a bumper harvest of food, and the minister thought that there must be a secret."

"Qinghe Cui family? Are you sure?" Li Hong was startled. Although Zong Chuke had already said it implicitly, he still felt that Li Xian's shadow was indispensable.

"I dare not be sure, but 70% to 80% is true. The minister has sent people to Qinghe to check it. In addition to the rent adjustment, it is said that the people's granaries are overflowing, and there is too much food..."

"This is a strange thing, I have time when Datang can't finish eating?" Li Hong muttered.

He believed what Zong Chuke said, and he believed that Datang was in its heyday at this time. During this period in the original history, the food of Datang was enough to spend. When returning to Luocang, the food has always been full. exhaust.

"During the disaster in the cloud, Qinghe once made a lot of money. You don't know who is cheaper. Then you and your majesty conquered Liaodong. At that time, Li Yangcang was forced to put food in secret. I also bought high-priced grain from Qinghe and quickly filled up the warehouse in Liyang. Otherwise, if you and your majesty conquered Liaodong, grain would be a problem." Zong Chuke looked around and took two steps forward. , Whispered.

"Continue to check, it is best to check before Yuanri! Don't disturb others."

"Don’t worry, the minister has been investigating in secret, so he has never been noticed. Originally, the minister didn’t plan to tell you, but there is no way today. Before Yuan Dynasty, I’m afraid I need to open the warehouse and release the grain again. In several counties in the surrounding area, the current situation of the people is that they have money but no food, and they will get high prices if they want to buy food, so the minister ran to mediate the matter."

Li Hong nodded. No wonder he didn't know at all. Zong Chuke had hidden deep enough: "How are you going to make the folding paper here?" Li Hong raised his head and pointed at the distant ruins with his chin, and asked Tao.

"The sky is dry and things are dry, coupled with years of disrepair, and accidentally caught fire. By the time it was discovered, it was too late and the minister was guilty." Zong Chuke had already thought about how to relieve Li Xian and said lightly.

"Okay, I hope that the father won't doubt this Zhezi. In fact, it is useless to doubt. What about the arsonists that night?"

"Secretly detained by the minister~IndoMTL.com~ will not be discovered, and all confessions have been recorded. I am not afraid of someone turning back." The person in Zongchuke’s mouth obviously did not refer to those arsonists. It refers to King Pei and Lixian. If he reconciles with the prince, then these arsonists and confessions will not appear. But if King Pei and Lixian fall out with the prince, these arsonists and the confessions will be King Pei. The ironclad evidence of the arson order.

As soon as the two of them finished talking, they saw Yan Lingbin slowly walking over with Zhang Lushui and Jin Rongqi. From the looks of the two women, it could be seen that the two of them were quite interested in the new palace gardens that will be supervised. In order to be satisfied, Yan Lingbin added some of his own opinions to help the two men to perfect the details from a female perspective, so everything still made them very satisfied.

Fang Xianzhong, Zong Chuke, and Jiang as the supervisor stood together in front of Li Hong. Li Hong looked at the three and said lightly: "The supervisor will fix the picture as soon as possible and hand it over to the Ministry of Industry after Yuanri No matter the manpower, material resources, and financial resources, they are all provided by the Ministry of Industry. As the Prince of Tang Dynasty, he is also Shangshusheng Shangshuling and Jingzhaofu Yin, so he should pay for the construction alone to honor his father."

"But...Your Highness, the Ministry of Engineering..." Fang Xianzhong's face turned pale, before he knew it, he found that he had been fooled by the prince!

But Li Hong didn't give him a chance to explain, and said to Zong Chuke indifferently: "Send the two back to the palace, I have something to do. I have to leave for Chang'an."
