Chapter 825 The only request
Li Mengchang's smile seemed open-minded. It is said that among the five surnames and seven hopes, the Li family of Zhaojun is the most low-key.
The atmosphere was quiet for a while, and seeing that neither party spoke first, Li Shimin smiled and said, "How do you welcome this old man?"
Li Zheng bowed his hand and said, "Please sit down."
Li Mengchang was not polite, and sat down first.
If you say that Li Mengchang is indeed a big seniority, you can't help but give Li Shimin face.
Seeing Li Mengchang sitting upright at the stone table, Li Zheng grabbed Li Shimin and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, what does this mean?"
Li Shimin also replied in a low voice: "What's wrong?"
Li Zheng leaned closer and said, "The affairs between the court and the five surnames have nothing to do with me, right? I just printed books and raised horses. Is this old man familiar with His Majesty?"
Li Shimin shook his head hard: "I'm really not familiar with it?"
Li Zheng said suspiciously: "Then what are you bringing here for?"
Li Shimin said helplessly: "I'll come and see the soldiers trained outside the village, and take a walk here to take a look?"
"Walking?" Li Zheng looked at Li Shimin and said, "Can you find a decent excuse?"
Li Shimin snorted coldly and said, "That was learned from you."
OK, no matter how you say it, it’s all your excuses.
"What are you monarch and ministers muttering? You both treat me as an outsider and you still have to plot behind your back?" Li Mengchang couldn't sit still and said with a glaring at the two of them.
Li Zheng and Li Shimin had no choice but to sit down together.
Dahu was still cleaning the horse circle hard, and Li Zheng said, "The horse circle smelled a little early in the morning, so it would be fine after cleaning up."
Li Mengchang waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter."
The old man didn't mind anymore, so Li Zheng and Li Shimin naturally had nothing to say.
It is not spring now, and the morning wind is still a little cold.
A group of children ran past not far away with laughter. Li Mengchang looked back and said, "Li Zheng, Jingyang is really lively."
Li Shimin said: "In the past, Jingyang was a very dilapidated small village, poor and white. At that time, there was no good house in the village. A few years ago, Li Zheng accepted refugees and opened land and farmed land. After three years, Jingyang was already a rich county. After three years, he looked at Jingyang and had a different appearance."
Li Mengchang looked at Li Zheng and smiled and nodded.
The old man's eyes were not right, it looked like the kind eyes of his own grandson.
Li Zheng shuddered unconsciously.
Li Mengchang said: "I have to say that this kid has good ability to manage the local area. I think even the ministers in the court should learn from Li Zheng well."
"Hahahaha." Li Shimin smiled heartily and said, "Look at it, don't say this kid is so good. He is just a desperate person. This kid is already rich and still asks me for salary. He has never been a day's life, and he doesn't know where the shame comes from."
Li Meng smiled even happier.
Li Zheng looked at the two and said, "I heard that a killer has come to Chang'an recently? It seems that he was coming for me."
Hearing this, Li Shimin smiled and said nothing.
A sharp light flashed through Li Mengchang's expression.
This expression was captured by both Li Shimin and Li Zheng, although it only flashed by.
Li Mengchang said, "I can help you check it out. I have a good connection."
Li Zheng said, "Then it's going to be a labor."
As he said this, it was said whether the killer could enter Jingyang. Today, Jingyang has long been surrounded by Li Shimin's troops.
Li Mengchang said again: "After returning from Yinshan, I have been in seclusion for many years, and Li Jing has been staying in the door and now I know that so many things have happened in the world."
With a long sigh, Li Mengchang still said: "I heard that this happened to Li's family in Zhaojun a few days ago. I really didn't expect that I would sell salt and iron secretly! Such crimes must be thoroughly investigated."
Li Zheng glanced at Li Shimin.
Li Shimin still looked at the scenery calmly.
Li Zheng shook the fan in his hand and said, "This matter seems to have nothing to do with me. I am just like His Majesty said, a shameless and shameless person who wants money. He really doesn't understand the affairs of the government in his subordinates."
Li Mengchang looked at the fan in Li Zheng's hand and said, "It's such a cold day, aren't you still shaking the fan?"
Li Zheng also looked at him and said, "It's such a cold day, is Mr. Li so thin and not afraid of catching a cold?"
Li Mengchang smiled coldly, "Don't look at me as old as I am, my body is tough."
The words froze a little for a moment.
Li Shimin said: "I have asked someone to investigate the Yantioxue case, the prince will be the first to investigate and investigate Dali Temple."
Let Li Chengqian take the lead in trial? Li Shimin is going to put Li Chengqian on the fire and roast the prince.
After thinking about it carefully, Li Shimin's profound meaning was to show others, which means that the next generation of Emperors of the Tang Dynasty would not have any connection with the five surnames.
Li Shimin didn't want the prince to have any relationship with the five surnames.
A thorough investigation of this case will offend many powerful and noble families.
The hot potato is in Li Chengqian's hands. I guess Li Chengqian has already scratched it now and I don't know where to start.
"What do you think?"
Hearing Li Mengchang say this, Li Zheng raised his head and saw that both of them were looking at him.
Li Zheng smiled awkwardly, "I don't understand the affairs of the court. The affairs of the court should be handled by the court. I am just a businessman."
After hearing Li Zheng say this, Li Mengchang's face turned a little bad.
Helping Li Shimin do this, opening up the gap between the five surnames, and leaving the next thing to Li Shimin's people is enough.
For Li Shimin today, those shrewd and capable people are still there.
Those in the Secretariat know what to do next steps.
What Li Shimin wanted was to eradicate the core forces of the five surnames, and then divide and re-appoint them, arrest what should be caught, and kill what should be killed.
Everything is done according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Meng said, "Your Majesty, Li Zheng, I know that the five surnames have always been shackles of the Central Plains. I also know that the imperial examination is about to begin. At this time, the five surnames are about to fall apart. It will definitely be better for the Tang Dynasty. I also came from a poor family. I studied and joined the army when I was young. During this period, the Li family of Zhaojun put a lot of effort into me, which also gave me the current status."
With a long sigh, Li Mengchang's expression became much decadent, "I'm old, it's not the past, and the changes of dynasties and the world are different. Five surnames? Haha."
Li Mengchang whispered: "Everything will grow old. The five surnames are too old. They are so old that they have decayed from the bottom of their bones. It's time to change. I don't have much to do. I hope the world will be better in the future. There is nothing to say. I just hope that not too many people will die this time."
