Chapter 240 Re-reward + Weifu Private Interview (2-in-1) "Your Highness, is this really good?"
Zheng Lang left, and Wu Meiniang asked with a little worry: "If my father knows about this matter, I am afraid that it will deeply anger my father." ” "It's okay, with my father's mind, it's impossible to get angry because of this little thing."
Li Zhen said, and added another sentence in his heart, at most, he was losing his temper in private and making a little trouble for himself, if Li Shimin's mind was really narrow-minded, he was afraid that Wei Zheng's grave grass would be three feet tall (Wei Zheng: Why me?).
）。
Li Zhen suddenly smiled: "And ......"
And what was it after that, Li Zhen didn't say, but Wu Meiniang saw a different meaning from Li Zhen's face.
In fact, it is very simple, Li Zhen's real purpose is of course not to publicize Li Shimin's ugly things, he is actually putting pressure on Li Shimin - I have made so many contributions to the Tang Dynasty, but you only gave a few pearls?
Go to the grave and burn the newspaper - you fool the ghost?
Even if I offended you before, I didn't do it after all, did I?
And not many people know about it.
What do you mean by getting revenge back now?
Now give you a chance to make corrections, otherwise, even if I cancel the publicity of this news, the enemies of Datang will not let go of this opportunity, your reputation of Li Shimin's small belly and chicken intestines is about to spread out, and your reputation for decades is going to be flawed, and when the time comes, what should you let the people think of you?
Things were as Li Zhen expected, the day after he ordered this matter, Wang Tingchu held a holy decree, and an old face smiled like a blooming chrysanthemum: "The holy decree has arrived, and the prince will accept the decree." ” Rolling his eyes and looking at Wang Tingchu, Li Zhen lay on the bed and said weakly: "Look at my current appearance, can you still accept the order?"
” Wang Tingchu smiled and said: "Your Majesty has a decree, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's injuries have not healed, and the princess is pregnant, so there is no need to salute." ” "Then thank you father."
Li Zhen weakly arched her hand in the direction of Li Shimin's residence as a thanksgiving, and then couldn't wait to urge: "You hurry up and read, I'll see what my father gave me?"
” "Your Highness, rest assured, it's all good things."
Wang Tingchu smiled and unfolded the holy decree: "Fengtian carries the emperor's edict and says: In ancient times, Ban Chao threw his pen from the Western Regions of Rongding, and his reputation was passed on for eternity......
He was specially promoted to the crown prince Li Zhen as the governor of Nanyang, controlled the soldiers and horses of all walks of life in Nanyang, oversaw the immigration work of Borneo, and rewarded thousands of acres of fertile land, 100 silk horses, 100 strings of pearls, and a sword used by Gaozu in his early years. ” "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Zhen lay on the bed and hit her head on the pillow three times, even if she thanked her, she could see that others shook their heads to the extreme, so Li Zhen dared to treat Li Shimin's holy decree like this, Wang Tingchu was also speechless, but he didn't say anything, just handed over the holy decree to Li Zhen and withdrew.
"Your Highness, you seem to be very unhappy."
Wu Meiniang took Li Zhen's hand: "Father's reward is still very rich." ” "Abundance what?
That is, it looks good, and it is of little use.
Li Zhen said disdainfully: "What fertile land, silk, and pearls?"
It's all useless things, do I have less money?
I have also seen the emperor's Dingjiang sword, the name is good, in fact, it is a stainless steel sword, the quality is not as good as our current standard weapons, that is, the symbolic meaning is a little bigger.
It's not Shang Fang's sword, you can behead the faint king and behead the minister, but it has a little commemorative significance, and it is useless at all. ” "But is there still the governor of Nanyang?"
Fan Xueyi interjected: "This is a large establishment that Datang has never had, it is enough to mobilize the soldiers and horses of Nanyang, isn't this right big enough?"
” Li Zhen pouted even more: "That's an embroidered pillow, it looks good, the Nanyang Metropolitan Governor can control the Nanyang soldiers and horses, but don't forget, I have the position of Nanyang Recruiting Envoy, and I have the right to control the Nanyang soldiers and horses, and the most important task of this Metropolitan Governor is to have one more task to preside over the immigration work in Borneo."
What's more, there are only 100,000 people in the entire Nanyang, Nanyang is so big, it is not enough for such a few people to suppress Nanyang, where do I dare to mobilize a single soldier?
I'm afraid that if I mobilize Hou Junji here, Nanyang over there will be able to rebel immediately.
As for presiding over the immigration work in Borneo, it is a drudgery that only has input and no gain, not to mention anything else, immigrating to Borneo needs a boat, but where do we get the ship?
Still not allowed to use my boat?
The sea is rough, and I can't guarantee that every boat will reach Borneo safely, and if something happens to one of them, I'll be held accountable.
Besides, immigrants who dare to go to Borneo are generally poor people who can't survive, where do they have any assets?
I'm afraid I won't even be able to earn back the freight, right?
What's the use of me coming to such a mission?
” "I see."
Wu Meiniang's brows furrowed: "Isn't that father cheating on you?"
Your Highness, why don't we push this decree?
” "No, no, in fact, the matter is not that serious."
Seeing that Wu Meiniang was serious, Li Zhen hurriedly turned back to her smiling face and explained: "After all, there are 100,000 soldiers and horses in Nanyang, although they cannot be used for the time being, but once the situation in Nanyang stabilizes, these 100,000 people will become a living force.
And the immigration work in the South Seas, the early investment is indeed a bit large, but in the same way, once the migration of Borneo is formed, then we can extend our influence to the whole of Borneo, and then we can eat the biggest meat, and those who follow can only gnaw bones or even drink soup.
But the benefits I'm talking about will take time, as short as a year or two, and as long as only three or five years, but we can afford to wait. ” "I see, it's the concubine who thinks too much."
"Hmph, this is just a weak counterattack from my father."
Li Zhen sneered faintly: "If the pearl matter spreads, it will not be good for his reputation, and it will even be suspected that the father and son are not in harmony, and it will be up to him what others say at that time."

I reminded him through Zheng Lang, but the method was not too good, and it was a bit threatening, but my father had to give me a generous gift, otherwise I wouldn't be able to stop people's hearts. simply used this method directly, Nanyang Metropolitan Governor, this position can be said to be a high power to the extreme, and it is unprecedented, not before, and will not be set up again in the future, with such a high position, it is enough to block the mouth of the world.
As for what I will give and what I will get in this position, this person else does not care......
With just a slight move, I kicked the ball back, but I still had to catch the ball and not let go......
Father, what a good means. ” "Your Highness is cautious......
Wu Meiniang hurriedly covered Li Zhen's mouth: "Be careful that the wall has ears." ” "Afraid of what?"
Li Zhen chuckled, "If I was worried about spreading these words to my father's ears, I wouldn't say it."
Don't worry, it's okay, although my father is a little small-minded, he still has a handle on the major issues of right and wrong, and he will never do anything to me because of this matter. ” "Zheng Lang."
"The subordinates are here."
Zheng Lang flashed out, and his current skills are becoming more and more elusive.
"The original plan was canceled immediately, and the reward of the father and emperor was passed on."
Now that Li Shimin has changed the reward, Li Zhen is not a person who does not know what to do, so naturally he will not threaten Li Shimin anymore.
"Yes."
"I'm going to take a break, you guys go down."
"Yes, the concubine is retiring."
×n …… As Li Zhen expected, the content of his conversation soon reached Li Shimin's ears.
"This bastard boy, actually said that I have a small belly and chicken intestines?
He actually said that I am careful?
Li Shimin was so angry that he spun around in place, and after a while, he asked Wang Tingchu, who came back to pay the order: "Wang Tingchu, tell me, am I the kind of person who is cautious?"
If I were really careful, with Wei Zheng's stinky temper, he would have survived to this day (Wei Zheng: Why me again?).
）……” Wang Tingchu forcibly held back a smile: "Your Majesty, don't be angry, didn't Your Highness say it?"
Your Majesty, you are still very good at the major issues of right and wrong......"
Unexpectedly, Li Shimin was immediately furious when he heard this, and asked with a dark face: "You mean, you also agree with Zhen'er's inference?"
Am I really so careful?
” "Your Majesty's forgiveness, slave and maid......
Your Majesty's heart is still very broad-minded.
Wang Tingchu was so frightened that he quickly knelt down and changed his words to deny it.
Li Shimin was immediately overjoyed, and bragged shamelessly: "I'll just say, Zhen'er is pure nonsense, my mind is very open-minded, open enough to accommodate the mountains and rivers of the world in my chest." ” “…… Yes, yes, His Majesty's heart is the most open-minded.
Wang Tingchu promised in his mouth, but he complained in his heart, if you are big enough, in the face of what I say, will you react like this?
"Forget it, you get up."
Li Shimin waved his hand: "You go down and change into casual clothes, let's go out for a walk." ” "Huh?
Your Majesty, no.
Wang Tingchu was shocked: "Now that the population of Yuezhou has skyrocketed, and it is also the most chaotic time, if you go out and encounter danger......
"How can there be so much danger?"
Li Shimin shook his head and said: "Our guards don't eat dry food, what danger can there be with them?"
What's more, today's Yuezhou is so lively, it is the most critical moment of development, if I don't see it with my own eyes, I really don't know the bottom of my heart.
Alright, stop talking nonsense, hurry up and change your clothes. ” "Yes, slave and maid will go."
Wang Tingchu couldn't persuade Li Shimin, so he had to go down to change his clothes.
The most lively place in Yuezhou City is not in the city, but on the dock - of course, the city is also very lively, because Li Zhen discovered the Luzon Islands and opened the route to the Luzon Islands, so the entire Yuezhou has ushered in a large increase in population, but in just one year, the population of Yuezhou has more than doubled, and various businesses have also increased, and it is still quite prosperous.
However, after all, the port is the first stop to welcome the returning ships, a large number of transactions, especially the goods such as seasonal freshness, do not need to enter the city at all, only need to lean on the dock, and then hang the brand, naturally someone came to ask, if you can reach a consensus on the price, then the transaction is basically reached.
Therefore, in order to get the best goods in the first time, the major chambers of commerce have set up special offices on the wharf.
And after the deal is reached, the next step is to transport and unload, so there are still many coolie laborers on the dock begging for a living, they specialize in loading and unloading goods from ships for a living, basically as long as they can get on a boat to unload, then the family can almost eat a day, if they can do more, the children of the family can even eat a few mouthfuls of meat.
In addition to the coolies, the rest are all kinds of vendors.
Whether it is the coolies waiting on the pier or the passing boats, they will basically settle a meal on the pier, which gives the food stall room to survive.
In addition to the food stalls, there are also dealers who sell all kinds of handicrafts or souvenirs, and some passing ships, especially foreign ships, often have their crews from outsiders, and the crew's salaries are high enough, so they usually buy some souvenirs on the dock and bring them back whether they are kept as souvenirs, given away, or resold, which are quite good things.
It's just that the dock is prosperous, but at the same time, it has all kinds of drawbacks.

For example, in order not to be bullied or to rob business, some coolies often huddle together, and then form gangs of the nature of the underworld.
If it weren't for the fact that Yuezhou City Bosi was still strong and had his own army in his hands, I was afraid that these gangs would be even more excessive.
There are even gangs that cover smuggling ships, which has brought great inconvenience to the management of the port, although Feng Zhibao led people to strictly investigate several times and arrested several groups of people, but it is a pity that it has been repeatedly banned......
After Wang Tingchu got these information, he was even more frightened, but Li Shimin had to come to the dock to go around......
It's not safe here.
"Your Majesty......
Oh no, sir, I said it's too much chaos on the docks, let's go to the city, it's safer there.
Wang Tingchu looked at the crowd of people coming and going, almost crowding the entire dock, it can be said that he raised his heart to his throat, if Li Shimin really had something happen here, then all the people who were implicated would have to die, even Li Zhen should not think about it.
"What are you worried about?"
Li Shimin said with a smile: "There is a patrol team from the City Department patrolling all the time, and there are our people to protect it secretly, where will there be any problems?"
” "But there are too many people, you are delicate and expensive, not to mention assassinated, even if you are bumped and touched, the slaves and maids will not survive."
Since entering the port, the sweat on Wang Tingchu's forehead has not been done, it is really terrible, the coolies here are barbarians who don't understand etiquette, if there is a conflict with Li Shimin, and then hurt people, then Wang Tingchu can't think about the consequences.
