This spring rain in Guanzhong came very timely.

Good rain knows the season. The rain falls above the palace, and along the eaves the rain falls like a string of beads.

Li Shimin was in a good mood, but the good thing was that Japan and Goguryeo finally started war again.

I have been here and fought at sea and it is difficult to solve.

After a brief pause in the weapons business, it began again.

Of course, Li Shimin is happy to see things like being able to make money.

But as His Majesty of the Tang Dynasty, His Majesty will never always be in a good mood.

Looking at the memorials one by one, Li Shimin saw a memorial that made him feel bad.

Because Yumen Pass has been severely weathered for many years, some places of the pass have collapsed, but fortunately there are no casualties.

After reading this memorial, Li Shimin said, "Call Fang Xuanling."

"Here!"

Wang Ding hurriedly left after receiving the words.

Half an hour later, Fang Xuanling hurried to Ganlu Palace and saluted: "Your Majesty."

Li Shimin stood up and walked to Fang Xuanling, handed him the memorial from Yumen Pass and said, "The memorial sent by Yumen Pass has severe weathering and caused some places to collapse."

Fang Xuanling whispered: "This has always been the place of Yumen Pass. It is common for the construction of passes."

Li Shimin said: "This morning, some people said that Yanmen Pass has been in disrepair for a long time."

Since the Former Sui Dynasty, the world has been in chaos. During the Wude period, foreign enemies have attacked, let alone Yanmen Pass, the passes in other places have not been repaired for a long time.

Fang Xuanling bowed and said, "Your Majesty means..."

Li Shimin whispered: "I always feel like someone tells me again that it's time to do business with Li Zheng."

Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "In fact, the generals and comrades of each pass will arrange for people to repair the pass, but it only requires some people's efforts to recruit them."

"We must recruit people's power..."

Li Shimin already has a reputation for being in a bad position.

This kind of discussion has not stopped over the years.

In his career as His Majesty, Li Shimin naturally did not want to have any other stains.

Fang Xuanling said again: "Your Majesty, in fact, there are several passes north of the Central Plains and west of them that have been disrepaired for a long time."

Li Shimin looked at him and said, "If you have something to say, just say it."

"Here!"

Fang Xuanling bowed and continued, "If so many passes are to be repaired, more than tens of thousands of people are required to be recruited, but if this matter is not done by the court, the court can reduce a lot of burden."

Li Shimin nodded and signaled to him to continue.

Fang Xuanling said again: "But doesn't Your Majesty think it's too coincidental? Some court officials made suggestions to hand over the fortifications for repairing the border to Jingyang. Before His Majesty made a decision, something happened at Yumen Pass."

Li Shimin sat down again and felt helpless, "What do you mean is this what Jingyang wants to achieve?"

Fang Xuanling bowed and said, "I dare not say that."

Li Shimin looked at the rain outside, "I feel that Li Zheng is looking for more and more."

Fang Xuanling walked to Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, you might as well leave it to Li Zheng."

Li Shimin looked at him in confusion.

"Since you know that this is Li Zheng's method, you might as well let Li Zheng achieve this goal. Jingyang's manpower can be used is limited. If the construction fortifications in the border are too long, it will make Jingyang insufficient manpower, and Jingyang also needs manpower development."

"What do you mean is to use this to weaken the power of Jingyang?"

"I just feel that there is no pressure in the court to hand over more than ten passes to Jingyang for repair. Second, Jingyang needs to be discharged. Once the pass starts construction, it will definitely affect Jingyang's own development."

Take a plan?

Li Shimin really likes Fang Xuanling's strategy.

Fang Xuanling often has unique insights in the so-called plan and the plan.

Fang Xuanling said again, "Since the engineering team in Jingyang wants construction fortifications, it is better to hand over dozens of passes to Li Zheng."

Li Shimin nodded slightly and said, "Since that's the case, you can discuss it with Du Ruhui and tell me about it after you have a detailed charter."

"Here."

Fang Xuanling hurriedly left after receiving the words.

Li Shimin's eyes were still looking at the rain outside. Fang Xuanling's method was very good, but he always felt unreliable in his heart.

This time, the rainy season in Guanzhong is abundant, which has greatly increased the water levels of several rivers around Chang'an.

Three days later, Li Zheng stood by the horse circle and looked at the blue sky. The rainy season was finally over.

Li Yifu brought Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui here, "Chang'an Order, people brought it."

Looking at the two, Li Zheng said, "Please sit down, please, two."

Du Ruhui looked at the strong horses in the horse circle and said, "These horses are well raised."

Li Zheng said: "These horses are fed the best forage."

Du Ruhui said: "This is not something that can be fed just by feeding. I'm afraid I'll take it out a lot."

Retracting his gaze Du Ruhui looked at Li Zheng.

Fang Xuanling also looked at Li Zheng and said, "Chang'an Ling and us are both acquaintances, so we won't be polite. Just talk about the serious business."

Li Zheng poured tea for the two of them, "I have heard of everything. His Majesty is powerless to repair so many passes in disrepair."

Fang Xuanling said, "So we found the Chang'an Order, and I don't know that the Jingyang Engineering Team cannot take over this fortification."

After it rained, you can ask about the smell of soil and grass just by sitting here.

"The fortifications are very large, but it is not impossible to take on this project."

"A gentleman has no jokes." Fang Xuanling said, and he felt a little hyped in his heart with the manpower that Li Zheng could use now, how could he complete such a large fortification? From Shanhaiguan all the way west to Yumenguan, there are more than a dozen passes and passes.

Li Zheng agreed without thinking about such a large fortification.

Li Zheng asked Li Yifu to bring some roasted lamb.

Fang Xuanling was not polite, but he had already been hungry all the way. He ate mutton and said, "How much does Jingyang need to take over this fortification."

Li Zheng shook his head and said, "I don't have money for the time being."

"No money?"

"We might as well pledge our land."

After hearing Li Zheng talk about land pledge, Du Ruhui was thinking about what land pledge means in the books he had read for most of his life.

Li Zheng said while eating mutton skewers: "Actually, it's simple. It's nothing more than a part of the land pledged from me by the court to mortgage the fortifications. After the fortifications are over, the court will use silver to pay the project payment, and I will return the land to the court so that I won't be afraid that the court will be liable for debt."

Fang Xuanling said: "The court will not be able to rely on the debt, Chang'an Order must believe us."

Li Zheng laughed dryly and said, "Haha, Your Majesty has delayed me for so many years and didn't give me a penny of salary. Our Majesty's credibility is too low. Besides, this project is at least a million-yuan project."

"this……"

This is Your Majesty's business for Li Shimin. According to Li Zheng, Your Majesty does have a criminal record of dependent on the debt.
