East Warm Pavilion.

The emperor sat on the chair and looked at the letter, there was a faint sadness in his eyes, he was an emperor and not an ordinary man, so he could be emotional but not emotional, he understood the choice of the old man, but this was not his choice, the emperor who could be selected by the Taoist could not be lightly elected, before the Northern Expedition, everything must not go wrong, if at this moment, because Xiao Zhang Zhenren showed his identity as a woman, which led to the instability of the people, he could not agree.

He's an emperor, he can't be too emotional.

The old dean sat there and looked at the emperor's face, and his heart was also worried, in fact, His Majesty's worries were not groundless, Xiao Zhang Zhenren was abnormal during this time, it should be that his mood had changed, plus Shen Leng's stupid boy went to Xiangning Temple, maybe something would happen.

"Sir, go talk to Shen Leng."

The emperor glanced at the old dean: "He is too emotional, and Mr. knows that his biggest weakness is emotional." ”

The old dean didn't know.

And this is one of the reasons why the old dean guessed that the emperor would not pass the throne to Shen Leng no matter what, of course it was not the most important one, the most important reason was because Shen Leng's identity was unknown, and now the emperor was convinced, Mr. Shen was convinced, and even the old dean himself was convinced, but this conviction was also emotional.

If His Majesty really made a mistake and passed the throne to Shen Leng, the Li family's royal family would not agree, all the famous families in Daning would not agree, and the civil and military officials in the court would not agree, His Majesty's brothers would not have much influence, but His Majesty's uncles still have a few still alive, if the entire Li family's royal family is against it, how can Your Majesty insist on going its own way?

Why can't His Majesty explain everything to Shen Leng until now? It is because His Majesty has the heaviest Daning in his heart, so he can only grieve Shen Leng, so His Majesty will do everything possible to make up for Shen Leng in other aspects.

"The minister obeys the order, and I will talk to Shen Leng when I go back."

"You tell him that this matter is not allowed to be mentioned before the Northern Expedition, and after the Northern Expedition, I will not care, no matter what choice Xiao Zhang Zhenren makes, I will support it."

The old dean nodded: "Although Shen Leng is emotional, he is not a person who ignores the overall situation. ”

The emperor sighed: "He is too emotional, he can't wait to take out his heart to others if he is good to him, this kind of character will not change now, and it will not change in the future, he can be ruthless to the enemy but he can't be ruthless to his own people, sometimes, ruthlessness is also necessary." ”

The old dean didn't dare to interject.

The emperor put the letter away: "This matter can't be brought to the surface now, let's wronged Xiao Zhang Zhenren first, she can go back to Longhu Mountain to be a good person when she takes a step back, but I haven't taken a step back, the people's hearts are unstable and Daning is unstable, how to march north?" I took a step back, and the northern expedition became a joke. ”

The old dean said: "Xiao Zhang Zhenren is not a person who ignores the overall situation, so Your Majesty doesn't have to worry too much." ”

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, but the face of the old man of Longhu Mountain still appeared in his mind from time to time.

"Put the boat on your behalf and call Lai Cheng in."

"Slave maid is going."

Dai Fangzhou answered, and trotted out of the East Warm Pavilion.

After a while, Lai Cheng walked in quickly from outside and bowed: "What is the important thing Your Majesty has to summon the ministers?" ”

"I just thought about something...... The importance of the Northern Expedition, the importance of non-war, and the importance of the people's return, I thought, the cabinet discussed, to see if we can issue a supplementary decree before the Northern Expedition, Daning in the whole country, all states and counties must improve the preparation and preparation of the Salesian Workshop as soon as possible, before Daning had a decree, but there is no special person to do this, it is all handled by the local government, it is inevitable that there will be inconsiderate places, the people of Daning, can not be orphaned, orphaned, and old. ”

Lai Chengdao: "If this matter is done as soon as possible, the people will be grateful to Your Majesty to the imperial court, the people's hearts will be united, and their support for the Northern Expedition will be more stable." ”

"You have to have a complete system."

The emperor got up and said while moving: "The Salesian Workshop is set up in all states and counties, and the lonely elderly and orphans and widows can go to the local state and county Salesian Workshop if they have no food and clothing, and the imperial court will allocate funds to support them. A month later, these people will go to work, and within a year, the Salesian Workshops in each state and county will be built, and after the household department will summarize them, the cabinet will review them, and then report them to me to know, and this matter will be listed as the most important matter of people's livelihood next year. ”

Lai Chengdao: "The minister understands that within ten days, the minister will recommend a list to be submitted to His Majesty in conjunction with the cabinet lords, and within twenty days, strive to let the Salesian officials at the level of Taoism go to various places." ”

"Let them spend the New Year."

The emperor said: "I was too hasty a few years ago, and I can't let them run out a few days ago, I can't help but talk about human feelings." ”

Lai Cheng lowered his head and said, "The minister understands." ”

The emperor looked at the old dean: "Mr. just said that Shen Xiaosong wants to buy the land next to Xiangning Temple to build the residence of the family members of the Tingwei Mansion?" It's good that this thing has been done, the Tingwei Mansion is seriously understaffed, and it must be transferred from all over the country, and the Criminal Department should also increase personnel, why should the family be unstable to do things for the court wholeheartedly, so it will temporarily be set as the location of the residence of the family members of the Criminal Department and the Tingwei Mansion, Lai Cheng, you go to the household department to see, how to price and how to price, the approval of the household department is approved as soon as possible, and the house construction department will send people to supervise, and it is not allowed to cut corners, try to let them only pay half of the money to settle in Chang'an, if they are not willing to buy, the court will pay half of the cost of renting a house for three years. ”

Lai Cheng roughly calculated: "It's not a small amount. ”

The emperor said: "Then it depends on how Shen Xiaosong does this." ”

Lai Cheng lowered his head: "The minister turned around and took the time to talk to Mr. Shen and implement it as soon as possible." ”

The emperor said: "There is nothing else to do, you go and get busy first." ”

Lai Cheng leaned over: "The minister retreats." ”

After Lai Cheng left, the emperor sat down and let out a long breath: "The old people have good thoughts, but they can't do much good deeds just by relying on a dragon and tiger mountain Taoist temple, I always have to do more than them, I hope the old people can understand my hardships." ”

The old dean said: "Your Majesty is benevolent, and he has been born." ”

The emperor said: "Sir's sycophant is really blunt, and it's just a few sentences over and over again...... Whether it is an external war or an internal governance of the people's livelihood, I want to make the people of Daning live a better life, I can't make everyone in Daning carefree, but I try my best to make the people of Daning live better than the people of any country in the world, only when the people live and work in peace and contentment, Daning will really have long-term peace and stability. ”

The emperor raised his hand and rubbed the corners of his eyebrows: "Sir, go back too, go talk to that stupid boy, let me have a headache." ”

At the same time, the view of tranquility.

Not long after Shen Leng arrived, Mr. Shen also arrived at Xiangning Temple, and he naturally couldn't help but care about the things entrusted to him by Han Zhaozhi, who was originally outside Xiangning Temple with someone to measure how big the open space was, and roughly calculate how many residences could be built.

"Sir, I have come up with a solution."

Gao Xiaoyan said with a smile: "The first batch of people to move to Chang'an is from Xishu Road, Lord Han brought back a total of more than 200 people, according to the calculation of more than 200 households, this place is enough, built according to the standard of residential buildings, 12300 houses are not a problem, I mean, this matter is operated in batches as needed, if the approval is down, the household department will start to build the first batch of more than 200 houses, as soon as possible, this is the first batch, and then start construction one after another, as soon as possible for these more than 200 households to settle down the house, The latter ones don't have to be in such a hurry. ”

Mr. Shen said, "Yes." ”

Gao Xiaoyan said: "I'm a businessman, and I can't help but make money...... After the house is built, I reserve half of the property for the Tingwei Mansion or other yamen that will be needed in the future, and the other half will be given to the Sky Ticket number to operate, rent, and sell, and the day ticket number will have the right to dispose of it. ”

"After the people of Xishu Road arrive, if the money is not enough to buy a house, the day ticket number can prepay half of the silver of the house price to each household, and return it on a monthly basis in the future, and the interest will definitely not be high, or even not."

Mr. Shen said: "Half of the words are a bit too much, I will talk to the household department, just say that the household department does not need to allocate funds, and the Tingwei Mansion does not need to allocate funds, and the construction of the house is carried out by the day ticket number, and I will try my best to give you the right to operate one-third of the house, according to the method you said, the people who move here can also live in peace as soon as possible, and they will not be stretched thin." ”

Gao Xiaoyan smiled: "Sir, am I amazing?" Isn't it a genius? ”

Mr. Shen said: "Lin Luoyu handed over the ticket number to you to operate, just because you have a good brain." ”

Gao Xiaoxiang calculated: "If you can get more approvals in Chang'an City, the sky ticket number to build a house, this is another business that can make money with peace of mind, there is not much land that can be used in the east and west cities, but there are still large areas of land available in the south and north cities, there should be no one who dares to think of this method, no one does this because the court does not allow it, and the land cannot be handed over to the business house ticket number, but we can build official houses for the various ministries of the imperial court, and we leave one-third of the management rights for each batch, no...... One in five, or even a tenth. ”

This is a serious whimsy, and it is a high and small dare to think, but this matter seems to have a lot of room for operation, even if you win one-tenth of the real estate management rights, the day ticket number will only make a profit.

Mr. Shen didn't know, and Gao Xiaoyan didn't know, if they followed their method, plus what His Majesty had decided just now, then the family members of the Tingwei Mansion who settled here would not need to pay their own money to buy the house in the early stage.

Gao Xiaoyan roughly calculated: "I suddenly found that this is profitable." ”

Mr. Shen glared at her: "Money-obsessed." ”

Gao Xiaoxian: "This is my job, to earn money with conscience." ”

As he was talking, he saw Shen Leng and Chen Ran coming out of the Taoist temple, Mr. Shen didn't expect Shen Leng to be there, and after saying a few words, Shen Leng suddenly remembered, and asked Chen Ran to show Mr. Shen the jade pendant given to him by the prince, Mr. Shen took the jade pendant and smelled it, his brows furrowed slightly.

"The taste is very strange, I'll take the things first, and let people send them to the Shen family pharmacy to see them later, I always feel that something is wrong."

Chen Ran said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince shouldn't be so blatantly harmful, right?" ”

Shen Leng's heart moved.

The prince wouldn't be so blatantly harmful, but what about the people under the prince?
