The first rebel of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 213 Don't Think I Know Nothing (Ninth Change)
"Where is the prince?"

Li Shimin was furious.

Because I didn't see Li Chengqian's relationship.

In the East Palace, no one dared to respond.

Li Shimin asked with a straight face:
"Where did this kid go again? Who knows?"

Then someone whispered: "His Royal Highness went out with Xu Jingzong in the afternoon, and he hasn't come back yet!"

"What on earth does this kid want to do? Go out of the palace again and again, what are you doing!"

Li Shimin was upset.

How long has it been since Li Chengqian and Xu Jingzong were beaten together?

The two got together again.

In Li Shimin's eyes, this Xu Jingzong is not reliable.

Take Li Chengqian to run around every day.

There will always be a time when Li Chengqian will make him go bad.

"Let Kong Yingda come over for a while, this kid has to work harder on his studies!"

"Yes!"

The eunuch went out to summon Kong Yingda, and Li Shimin sat there, unhappy.

At this time, someone walked into the palace.

"Are you willing to come back now? You kid goes outside the palace every day. See if I won't lock you up anymore!"

Li Shimin said.

But at this moment, there was a male-like voice.

It was Cheng Yaojin's voice.

"Your Majesty, the minister...didn't do anything! Why should Guan Chen be closed!"

He misunderstood.

"Huh? Zhijie, why are you here?"

Only then did Cheng Yaojin realize that it was not about himself.

"Your Majesty, I just arrived in the Lizheng Hall and saw that you were not there. I heard the eunuch in the palace say that you are here, so I came here."

Li Shimin suddenly remembered.

"How about that?"

"This... I went to recruit Xue Rengui, but failed."

"How could it fail? Is it because you didn't give enough? Logically speaking, it's impossible!"

Li Shimin was puzzled.

It must be that Cheng Yaojin did not do well enough.

Then he said: "Then if I let Wei Zheng go there once, maybe he will succeed!"

Li Shimin loves talents, and Xue Rengui fell into his eyes, and he must recruit them no matter what.

But Cheng Yaojin said: "Your Majesty, this person is no small matter. He has only been loyal to the sixth prince all his life. No matter how much I persuade you, I will not do it! No matter how much money you pay, and..."

"And what?"

"And he said, we are not as rich as the sixth prince!"

Li Shimin was taken aback.

Then asked:

"Then you can say that I asked him to come?"

"As I said, he just doesn't want to, and even if thousands of troops come to invite him, he won't leave the sixth prince!"

"Then I will issue an imperial decree to see if he still comes?"

Li Shimin seems to be on the bar.

"Your Majesty can't do it! This kind of person has a strong nature. If he is recruited forcibly, he will be dissatisfied, and he will be a useless person!"

Cheng Yaojin was right.

If you make people feel unwilling, who will do things for you?

It's not that you can do whatever you want just because you are the emperor.

At least not in front of Xue Rengui.

"Then what should we do? I like him very much! If he can enter the palace, it will provide a guarantee for Great Tang's combat power!"

"Your Majesty cherishes talents, but there is really no rush for this matter. If you can't make him surrender sincerely, there will be troubles to come in the future!"

"Okay, then wait a little longer!"

Li Shimin was a little disappointed.

Seeing Li Shimin like this, Cheng Yaojin had no choice.

Fortunately, Li Shimin didn't punish him, otherwise he would wail again.

"By the way, Your Majesty, I have one more thing to do."

"What's the matter?"

"About Prohibition!"

"Why? With the prohibition on alcohol, do you want me to take my life back? What happened to you last time, I will give you a lighter sentence!"

Cheng Yaojin quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, no, that's how it is. This morning, when I sent 8 taels of silver to the Shengtang Group, something happened outside the group."

"what's up?"

"The worry-free wine in Shengtang Group is directly sold short!"

"Oh? How could this be? After the ban on alcohol, shouldn't it be unsold?"

Cheng Yaojin immediately told what Li Yin did.

Li Shimin was stunned.

"What did you say? The value will be doubled in ten years? All the worry-free wine is sold out now? How could this kid have such an idea? Is it because he hates too much money?"

"Your Majesty, I think the sixth prince's method is very useful. Think about it, worry-free wine is a good thing, how can it be kept for so long? But if half of the people drink it, then the sixth prince will not lose money." , Moreover, there may be more than just a count, and after ten years, if the wine is not properly preserved, it will have evaporated long ago. What do people exchange for? In the end, there are only a handful of wines that can really be exchanged. .”

After Cheng Yaojin said this, Li Shimin patted his thigh.

"That's right, this kid has such a trick! I underestimated him again!"

It's not that I underestimated Li Shimin, but Li Shimin never looked down upon Li Yin.

So when Li Yin did something he thought was impossible, it slapped him in the face every time.

Sometimes, he had to admit that Li Yin was strong.

But if you only admit it in private, in front of the ministers, it is basically impossible.

"Your Majesty, the intelligence of the Sixth Prince may be used against the Five Great Aristocratic Families. So I think..."

"If you let him come back, then there is no need to talk about it!"

"No, no, it's not like that. I think that I can support the sixth prince more in the future, and stop doing things like the prohibition of alcohol..."

What Cheng Yaojin said was trembling.

After all, he was questioning Li Shimin's decision.

If Li Shimin is unhappy, he will suffer again.

"On this point, I can only do my best, but most of the time, I still deal with it impartially. What should be done is what should be done, you know?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Most of the reason why Cheng Yaojin said this was for himself.

If Li Yin is well, he is naturally good, after all, he still has shares in Xishi.

In fact, he couldn't hide this matter.

Because Li Shimin said again: "In the future, you should not go to the West Market, and you will know your little tricks in the Shengtang Group. The reason why I don't tell the truth is because of our brothers. I hope Can you understand!"

Cheng Yaojin was shocked, it turned out that Li Shimin knew everything.

Can't help laughing.

"Yes, yes, my minister obeys the order!"

"Okay, follow me to the Lizheng Hall, we brothers haven't had a drink for a long time, let's go have a drink!"

"But Your Majesty, the prohibition on alcohol..."

"I said you can drink it, so you can drink it!"

Cheng Yaojin was puzzled, why Li Shimin wanted to drink, was he in a bad mood or in a good mood?
He couldn't figure it out.

I could only follow Li Shimin to the Lizheng Hall.

This time in the palace, no trace of Empress Changsun was found.

He couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

"Where is the queen?"
