Today's early morning has ended, and Li Shimin is discussing with the relevant ministers.

  I saw Li Shimin sitting behind the table with his brows furrowed. In the hall, Sun Wuji, the minister of officials, Fang Xuanling, the prime minister, Wei Zheng, the counselor, Du Chuke, minister of industry, and Gao Shilian, minister of household, stood there.

  At this time, their brows were also slightly frowned, and their faces showed embarrassment.

  The minister of households, Gao Shilian said: "Your Majesty, the torrential rain has stopped for nearly half a month now, and many victims have returned to their homes, but in Yangzhou, the flooding is particularly serious this time, and the [-] victims still have nowhere to go. Prince His Highness has sent reports many times, saying that Yangzhou is simply unable to deal with these victims, so now our top priority is how to deal with these victims."

  "This minister is the minister of the household, and I know very well what it means for the common people to not have a place to settle down. If the common people are homeless, they will feel fear in their hearts, and they will be easily used by thieves if they have no hope for the future. The [-] disaster victims are likely to cause civil unrest, Your Majesty!"

  Gao Shilian is the uncle of Empress Changsun and Changsun Wuji. He raised Changsun Wuji with his own hands. At that time, he was also optimistic about Li Shimin and betrothed Empress Changsun to Li Shimin.

  So Li Shimin respected him very much.

  Hearing Gao Shilian's words at this time, Li Shimin's brows became even tighter. He raised his head and looked around at the crowd, and said, "Is there anything you can do?"

  Everyone shook their heads, even Fang Xuanling had no choice at this time.

  "His Majesty!"

  Fang Xuanling said: "Although Yangzhou was the hardest hit area this time, the entire Tang Dynasty suffered heavy rains for half a month. Now crops in various places have been affected, and residential houses have collapsed in many places. The place to live, so... all places are actually in a dilemma, and none of them have the ability to deal with these [-] disaster victims."

  "How could it be like this! Could it be that I am in the Great Tang Dynasty, so that the victims can't even find a place to live after the catastrophe?"

  Li Shimin banged on the table and said angrily.

  When everyone saw Li Shimin's anger, they all bowed and bowed quickly and said, "If you fail to share your worries with Your Majesty, this minister will die!"

  Seeing this, Li Shimin felt aggrieved but couldn't express it. He took a deep breath, then waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I can't blame you for this! It's all a natural disaster!"

  He sighed and said, "But no matter what, the victims must be resettled. It's just that this matter needs to be discussed in the long run. Let's discuss it later! Apart from this, are there other things to report?"

  "His Majesty!"

  At this time, I saw Du Chuke, Minister of Industry, standing up. He bowed and bowed his head, with a glint in his eyes, and said, "This minister has a reward."

  "Go ahead."

  "Yes!"

  Du Chuke said: "His Majesty ordered the Ministry of Industry to investigate the entire Datang factory and labor problems some time ago, and now the Ministry of Industry has completed the investigation! Most of the factories have no major problems, but... But there are some factories, However, there are things that have not been reported to the Ministry of Industry, and have consumed a lot of people's energy, affecting people's cultivation, and ignoring people's suffering!"

  "kindness?"

  Li Shimin frowned and said, "Is there such a thing? If the Ministry of Industry finds out, it will be dealt with directly."

  When Du Chuke heard the words, he said, "Your Majesty, this matter can't be done by Wei Chen, nor dare to do it!"

  "Why?" Li Shimin looked at Du Chuke and asked.

  Du Chuke's expression did not change, but he still said respectfully: "Because among these problem factories, there are some factories that have the worst influence, are also the most consuming of the people's energy, and that lower officials dare not control!"

  "Which factories?" Li Shimin was already in a panic, but when he heard Du Chuke's words, he couldn't help but feel even more embarrassed, he said directly: "Tell me, I want to see, whose factory dares not obey the Ministry of Industry. Aligned!"

  A light flashed in Du Chuke's eyes, and he said directly: "Go back to Your Majesty, these factories are the cement factories, glass factories and iron smelting factories in Yizhou. Currently, [-] people are forced to work in these factories because the Existing, Yizhou directly lost [-] young and middle-aged people with labor to cultivate land!"

  "[-] young and middle-aged people, that is [-] families, that is at least [-] people. Because of these factories, they cannot go to the fields to cultivate, if they do not cultivate, there will be no food, and if there is no food, they will starve, and then a series of Bad incident!"

  "And the owners of these factories..."

  Du Chuke raised his head directly and said loudly, "It's His Royal Highness the King of Shu!"

  "what!?"

  As soon as Du Chuke's voice fell, an exclamation could be heard.

  Wei Zheng's complexion changed slightly, but Changsun Wuji's eyes couldn't stop shining.

  He hurriedly looked at Du Chuke, the expression in his eyes also changed a bit, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious: "Why did Du Chuke suddenly attack Li Ke, the king of Shu, is there a gap between them? Or..."

  Zhangsun Wuji was constantly thinking about the relationship and grievances between Du Chuke and Li Ke. He didn't believe that when Du Chuke had no grievances with Li Ke, he would dare to make a name for himself when Li Ke had just made great achievements. Trouble with Li Ke!

  So, unless Du Chuke is a fool, there is definitely something wrong with him!

  And would Du Chuke be a fool?How can a fool still be the Minister of Industry, the same position as himself?

  Changsun Wuji had begun to pay attention to Du Chuke.

  And Fang Xuanling also opened his eyes, took a deep look at Du Chuke, sighed, and said in his heart, "A big tree attracts the wind, this wind... it's coming, and it's still such a big wind, Your Royal Highness, what will you do this time?"

  "His Majesty!"

  After Gao Shilian heard Du Chuke's words, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, and he also stood up.

  He said, "I am really annoyed when I hear Master Du's words! Those are [-] young workers, and they are the only support for hundreds of thousands of people in [-] families! Without them, the hundreds of thousands of people would be How can you live!"

  "Before we were still worried about the [-] disaster victims, but we never thought that in the land of Yizhou, His Royal Highness the King of Shu did such absurd things, which is even more serious than the [-] disaster victims! "

  "So I implore Your Majesty to severely punish His Royal Highness the King of Shu!"

  Gao Shilian has a very high status in Li Shimin's heart, and Li Shimin's expression changed a bit as soon as he stood up.

  In fact, what Du Chuke just said, he already knew from some reports from the Ministry of Industry, but Li Shimin suppressed those reports because he took care of Li Ke.

  But I never thought that Du Chuke brought it up again, and he also got the support of Gao Shilian.

  "His Majesty!"

  At this moment, Changsun Wuji rolled his eyes and stood up.

  He said: "I know that His Royal Highness the King of Shu has made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, but I, the Tang Dynasty, have its own laws and clear rewards and punishments. His Majesty has already rewarded His Royal Highness the great merits of the King of Shu before, so at this time His Highness the King of Shu has both The fault, and it is still such a serious problem, is likely to cause hundreds of thousands of people to starve to death, so I also ask Your Majesty to punish His Royal Highness the King of Shu like a reward before!"

  The five ministers, except Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling, all demanded that Li Ke be severely punished, which made Li Shimin completely embarrassed.

  "His Majesty!"

  Du Chuke then said: "When Wei Chen's elder brother was alive, he told Wei Chen many times that he must enforce the law impartially, because only fairness and justice can truly enforce prohibitions, convince the officials, and let the officials be convinced. The people trust! Therefore, Wei Chen dared to tell His Majesty what his brother said!"

  Who is Du Chuke's brother?That is Du Ruhui!

  He was Li Shimin's most reliant counselor, and Li Shimin's most trusted counselor!

  Du Ruhui's treatment of Li Shimin is equivalent to Zhuge Liang's treatment of Liu Bei, so when Du Ruhui said this, Li Shimin could no longer suppress it.

  Seeing this scene, Fang Xuanling finally sighed in his heart.

  He knew that when Du Chuke took out Du Ruhui's name and Li Ke was punished, it was already a sure thing.

  "This time, no matter how talented you are, you won't be able to escape. I thought you would become a giant tree that ignores the wind, but who knows... it's a flash in the pan!"

  Fang Xuanling kept sighing in his heart. Although he did not clearly support any prince, if Fang Xuanling was allowed to choose, Fang Xuanling would actually support Li Ke.

  But unfortunately...

  The power of the wise king, Li Ke, is still too weak!

  Fang Xuanling sighed in his heart.

  Wei Zheng also kept shaking his head.

  Zhangsun Wuji was overjoyed. Originally, he was desperate for Li Ke, but who knew that he suddenly turned around and pushed Li Ke to a dead end!

  A happy smile appeared on Gao Shilian's face.

  As for Du Chuke, a sneer evoked in the corner. He knew that His Royal Highness King Wei's move was a success.

  "What Aiqing said is right!" Li Shimin sighed in his heart, but he finally held back his distress and said, "Be fair and just for an official, and even more so for an emperor!"

  "Since Ke'er has nothing to do with abusing people's labor and committing such a big crime, then—2.1"

  "His Majesty--"

  At this moment, an eunuch's voice suddenly interrupted Li Shimin's words.

  Li Shimin raised his head a little displeased, and saw that the eunuch he trusted suddenly came in from the outside and said, "Your Majesty, the old slave has returned from Yizhou, and His Royal Highness the King of Shu has a report, asking the old slave to When you return to the palace, you must immediately present it to Your Majesty! He said that this is a major event affecting the lives of hundreds of thousands of people!"

  "A report?"

  Li Shimin's eyes lit up when he heard the words.

  As for Changsun Wuji, his eyelids jumped, and he suddenly had a very bad premonition in his heart.

  As soon as he heard the report from the King of Shu, it reminded him... That figure crying in the sunset, that was the face of his passing away!

  "Bring it up!" Li Shimin said quickly without any hesitation.

  "Yes……"

  Eunuch Zhao stood up, took out a report from his arms, and then...

  "what!?"

  "Is this a report?"

  "This... is this really a report?"

  Just listening to the exclamations one after another, which kept ringing, was Gao Shilian, who was there with the old god, his eyes widened.

  And the eldest grandson Wuji almost spit out a swear word: "Why are you kidding me, this is a report!?"

Chapter [-] You said that my Keer abused the people and was selfish?

  Inside the hall.

  The expressions of everyone are stunned, and their eyes are widened!

  Even Li Shimin almost exclaimed.

  I saw the report that Eunuch Zhao was holding in his hand... Then where can it be called a report, it can be called a book!

  And it's still a masterpiece!

  Looking at the thickness, there are definitely more than a dozen Analects of Confucius!

  Is this really a report?Shouldn't you have written a novel in the form of a chapter called "The Tang Dynasty from the Great Governor to the Emperor"?

  Everyone's heart is full of complaining energy, and they are not unhappy, but because of Li Shimin's face, no one dares to speak.

  Not to mention them, in fact, when Eunuch Zhao first saw Li Ke's so-called report, he was so frightened that his legs softened and he almost fell to the ground.

  This report is definitely the first in ancient and modern times, and it is unprecedented!

  This thickness... even if Li Shimin watched it day and night, he couldn't finish it in a few days, right?

  It's just that since Li Ke said that the report was very important and related to his future, Eunuch Zhao had no choice but to bring it up.
