Chapter 319: Weichen doesn't like the crown prince

Soon, two small stoves were brought up, there was a small copper basin on the stove, the copper basin was boiling hot water, and the hot water was hot in the wine, alas, the emperor would really enjoy it, but drinking hot wine in winter is indeed a beautiful thing, let's get a set of such a small stove when we go home, and then a hot pot, ah, I think it's beautiful, it's beautiful.

Li Shimin has a small stove on his desk, Li Hao's desk has a small stove, and then he also has three kinds of small dishes to pad his stomach, drinking on an empty stomach hurts his body, and the ancients still paid great attention to health preservation.

After eating two mouthfuls of food and drinking two glasses of hot wine, Li Hao suddenly felt warm, he really wanted to eat and drink all the time, Li Shimin didn't talk about those troubles, how good it was, but there was no free dinner in the world, and after three rounds of wine, Li Shimin finally spoke: "Poetry madness, this snow disaster...... It's a bit big. ”

Li Hao was slightly shocked when he heard this, and asked, "How big?" ”

Li Shimin picked up four folds from the case, handed them to his side, and found that Xu Lian had been waved away by him, not around, only two palace maids were serving on the side, but the palace maids could not touch the folds, this was the rule, so Li Shimin threw the folds to Li Hao one by one, Li Hao took them in his hands one by one, and the cooperation was seamless and perfect.

Li Shimin also found out that he had this strange behavior, every time he faced Li Hao, he didn't really want to put the emperor on the shelf, he had reflected, and finally felt that this should be his subconscious desire to win over Li Hao, so that Li Hao felt close to himself.

After Li Hao took the chapter, he carefully flipped through it one by one, the more he looked at it, the more solemn his expression became, he thought about it carefully after reading it, raised his head and said: "Your Majesty, Guanzhong and Hedong should also be affected, right?" ”

"That's right." Li Shimin flew a few more copies of the disaster recitals of Guannei Province and Hedong Province to him, and Li Hao flipped through them one by one.

After Li Hao finished reading, Li Shimin said: "The disaster in Guanzhong and Hedong is not serious, but the disaster in Hebei is a major disaster." ”

Li Hao nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Your Majesty summoned Weichen to come this time, is it to inquire about this disaster treatment?" ”

Li Shimin nodded and said: "Naturally, for this matter, you have pacified the plague and drought, and you have made great achievements in disaster management, this disaster, you might as well talk about it, how to deal with it?" ”

Li Hao thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty wants to ask the ministers about the policies for governing the disaster, and the ministers must first ask Your Majesty about the policies for governing the country." ”

Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this, frowned and said: "The strategy of governing the country? What is the way to govern the country? ”

Li Hao said solemnly: "Mencius, his old man once said, the people are precious, the community is secondary, and the monarch is light, what does Your Majesty think of this?" ”

Li Shimin nodded and said: "Wei Zheng has also advised me many times with this, and I deeply believe that the people are the foundation of the state, and the foundation is the king. ”

"Your Majesty is wise." Li Hao arched his hand and said solemnly, "The country changes every few hundred years, and the emperor changes every few decades, but the people will not change for tens of millions of years." ”

Li Shimin was shocked when he heard this, he didn't expect Li Hao to dare to say such bold words, all along, the only person who dared to say such things was Wei Zheng, but he didn't expect that there would be another Li Hao now, but Li Hao's words are the truth for him, that's right, a dynasty will fall in a few hundred years, an emperor will change positions in a few decades, and the common people will always be the common people.

Li Shimin's heart fluctuated, and he was silent for a long time, and then he said slowly: "Poetry madness, if you have something to say, you might as well say it clearly." ”

Li Hao said: "Your Majesty, natural disasters are often accompanied by **, the reason why Weichen wants to consult His Majesty's opinion is to see whether it is important to control disasters or suppress **." ”

“**!” Li Shimin was shocked when he heard this, since the Tang Dynasty was strong, it has not appeared for many years, of course, it is also because there is no catastrophe, ** often appears with catastrophes, it is precisely because there has been no ** for many years, the people live and work in peace and contentment, he almost forgot such an important thing.

Li Hao continued: "Natural disasters are not empty talk, Your Majesty wants to cure disasters, you must prevent them, this, there are many kinds, some of them are disaster victims in order to survive, in order to eat a mouthful, and the crowd looted, gradually expanding the scope, forming, this kind of ** is easier to solve, to appease the people, and some ** is some people with ghosts in their hearts deliberately planned, taking advantage of natural disasters to stir up the wind and clouds, fool the people, this is a big disaster!" ”

Li Shimin waved his hand and said: "In such a prosperous world, who would deliberately plan, the poet is too worried." ”

Li Hao nodded: "I hope that Weichen is too worried, Your Majesty, this time the disaster is treated, the snow is closed, and the grain and grass are estimated to take ten days before they can pass normally, Your Majesty has ever thought about it, can the victims wait for ten days?" ”

Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Li Hao with a dumb eye, he really didn't think about it.

Li Hao said again: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that to treat the disaster, you have to follow a nearby principle, Hebei is not false, but the Tang Dynasty has been full of food and clothing for many years, and the state treasury has its own grain storage, maybe those stored grain is not enough to help the victims, but it can last for a while, the most important thing is that Hebei Province, the place where the Shi clan gathers, why did the Tang Dynasty raise troops against the Sui, did Your Majesty forget?" ”

Li Shimin was stunned, the Tang Dynasty raised troops against the Sui, relying on the financial support of the various gate lord clans, fighting wars, fighting is the strength and financial resources, the gate lord clan occupies a place, operating for many years, its accumulated power is extraordinary, not to mention the rich and rival the country, but it is not far behind, and in this era, money and grain are the top priority, there are so many gate valve families in Hebei Province, if they are willing to donate food, it is really not a matter to help the victims, the key question is - can they be willing?

Li Shimin also knows that these family gate lords will definitely not be willing to cut meat from their bodies, the urine nature of this group of scholars, he knows better than anyone else, they are extremely greedy, control the economy of the Tang Dynasty, and also control many high-ranking officials in the court, their hands are stretched out, and even have posed a threat to Li Shimin's imperial power, before Li Shimin issues a national policy, he must first think about whether his own policy will provoke these Hebei gate valves, once their interests are violated, then it will be difficult for his national policy to progress, This is the power of those gate lord clans, which makes Li Shimin feel a headache.

However, Li Shimin also has no way to take this group of scholars, they have always acted rigorously, and unscrupulous, they will not leave any handles, without handles, Li Shimin will not be able to move them, first of all, the ministers will not be able to pass that level, besides, there are so many gate valves in the world, if there are not enough handles, they want to kill a gate valve to establish their authority, and what they get is definitely not the effect of killing chickens and monkeys, but the opposite effect, the temper of this group of scholars is not very good.

As the saying goes, there are only thousand-year-old families, there are no thousand-year-old dynasties, and the way to survive is to vassal one dynasty after another, suck blood on the dynasty, suck it dry, and replace it with another one, this is a group of very disgusting people.

The Ganlu Hall was very quiet for a while, and after a long time, Li Shimin sighed leisurely: "How can the people of the scholar clan ask about the people's livelihood and suffering. ”

Li Hao nodded and said: "Your Majesty is right, the family of gate valves can't be pointed out in the first place, but Weichen thinks that it doesn't matter if they don't help, but don't help." ”

Li Shimin was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Li Hao said: "Your Majesty has suppressed the Hebei Gate Valve in recent years, although the intensity is not large, but smart people can feel it. ”

Li Shimin was shocked, and his eyes flashed: "You see it?" ”

Li Hao nodded: "Weichen believes that those old foxes in Hebei can naturally see that they had the merit of being a dragon back then, but now Your Majesty is suppressing them, with their temperament of retribution, I am afraid that they will not give up, this snow disaster is a God-given opportunity for them, and Your Majesty has to prevent it." ”

"Thanks to the poetry maniac, you remind!" Li Shimin broke out in a cold sweat and spread his hands and said, "Poetry madness, I want to entrust you with the important task of disaster control this time, are you willing?" ”

The corners of Li Hao's mouth twitched, you have said everything, if I shake my head, isn't that resistant, he can only put on a generous appearance, and said: "For the welfare of the people, for Your Majesty's worries, Weichen will never give up." ”

"Good!" Li Shimin was also very excited, and just wanted to speak, when he saw the maidservants serving on both sides, he waved his hand and said, "You all stand down, Jin Wuwei outside the door, retreat ten zhang!" ”

The two maidservants were ordered to retreat, and the Jin Wuwei guards outside the door also retreated ten zhang away, Li Shimin walked down the high seat and came to Li Hao, Li Hao hurriedly got up.

Li Shimin said in a low voice: "This time I went to Hebei Province, disaster control, chaos, all of which are indispensable, in order to prevent thieves from making trouble, I will grant you the transfer of troops and fish charms and secret decrees, when you arrive in Hebei, if you encounter a major event, you can mobilize Hebei soldiers and horses, first cut and then play." ”

Li Hao was shocked when he heard this, and arched his hand: "Weichen takes the order." ”

Li Shimin returned to the throne and continued: "This time the disaster needs to be appeased, so on the surface, I will send the prince to deal with the disaster, and you will assist ...... from the side."

Before Li Shimin finished speaking, Li Hao suddenly lowered his head and arched his hand, and said, "Please Your Majesty give Weichen a death!" ”

Li Shimin was stunned, then frowned and said: "Let's get down to business, what kind of death!" ”

Li Hao said: "If Weichen wants to resist the decree, he will definitely die, so please ask Your Majesty to give Weichen a death directly!" ”

"Resist?" Li Shimin frowned and said, "You obviously promised me!" ”

"Wechen has changed his mind."

"Bastard!" Li Shimin was so angry that he slapped the case, glaring angrily, "Do you think this is a child's house, and change your mind when you say that you will change your mind?" Do you know what it means to be a joke? ”

"So please give Weichen a death!"

Li Shimin was speechless, Li Hao was playing hob meat with him, could he give Li Hao to death, obviously not, he thought about it carefully, immediately understood, and asked slowly: "Are you because of the prince?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, yes." Li Hao didn't hide it, and said so openly, "Weichen doesn't like the prince. ”

Dare to say in front of the emperor that he doesn't like the crown prince, Li Hao is the first, not only since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, but also in history.

Before saying this, Li Hao was carefully considered, the prince hurt himself many times, and he naturally hated him, almost all the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty knew, and Li Shimin also knew, but he didn't dare to say it on the bright side, why did Li Hao dare to say it so grandly, because he was a bastard, and the bastard said bastard, saying it like this made Li Shimin feel that he was very straightforward and frank, doesn't the emperor like the courtiers to be frank, besides, Li Hao has already said it very subtlely and tactfully, just saying that he doesn't like the prince, I didn't say I hated the prince.

Li Shimin was very angry, glared at Li Hao angrily, and asked in a cold voice: "Li Hao, do you know what you are talking about?" ”

"Weichen doesn't like the prince." Li Hao is still the same sentence, and there has been no change because of Li Shimin's anger, he knows that Li Shimin will not do anything to himself, and he also knows that Li Shimin is actually very disappointed in the prince, so he is afraid of a hair.

Sure enough, Li Shimin was angry for a while, and said in a deep voice: "I miss you being young and frivolous, and spare you this time, I don't want to hear such words in the future!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your forgiveness." Li Hao arched his hand and said, "If Your Majesty wants to let Weichen and the prince go to Hebei to treat the disaster together, Weichen can only resist the decree." ”
