Cui's industry is too much, so much so that even Yizhou, which is hundreds of miles away, has their land and property, and in the accounts currently reported, Cui's granary has a total of 330,000 stone of grain, and the total value of gold, silver, jewelry and coins in the treasury is 1.2 million yuan, which is basically close to the annual income of the Tang Dynasty, and there are many celebrity calligraphy and paintings in their homes, ancient ceramic vessels, gold and jade sculptures and other things, the value of these things is temporarily immeasurable, and the separate accounts, as well as Cui's real estate, field property, and countless shops, Li Hao was stunned after reading the accounts.

Because there are too many properties of Cui's land, the accounts of the fields have not been settled for a long time, and it is okay, Li Hao first sealed all the property of the Cui family and brought them back to Dingzhou with more than 800 tribesmen of the Cui family.

When he arrived in Dingzhou, Li Hao asked Li Zhi to write a warrant to requisition Cui's 330,000 stone grain and money for disaster relief, plus more than 200,000 stone grain seized in the rebel camp before, which is enough for 500,000 stone grain, as well as the disaster relief food issued by the imperial court, so much grain is enough for the victims to eat for a year.

Immediately afterwards, Li Hao began to investigate Qin Miao thoroughly, and found that Qin Miao had a private house outside Dingzhou City, which contained many secrets, more than 7,000 yuan of money, more than 3,000 stone grains, and many gold, silver and jewelry, and most importantly, some secret letters of contact between Qin Miao and Cui's family, so Qin Miao's current crime is not only corruption and dereliction of duty, but also one more crime of rebellion.

Li Hao once again used his power to act cheaply, and detained Qin Miao in a prisoner car and paraded the streets for three days, and three days later he was shown in the vegetable market.

Five days later, the results of Cui's field settlement came out, there were a total of 15,000 hectares of fertile land, one hectare in the Tang Dynasty was equal to 50 mu, 15,000 hectares was 750,000 mu, and the price of one mu of fertile land in the Tang Dynasty was about 30 guan, if calculated according to 30 guan per mu, then the total value of Cui's land was 22.25 million guan.

Li Hao was directly stunned after hearing this, is he the richest man in the Tang Dynasty? Don't be kidding, you just have a little more cash, and your real estate is worth more than 20 million, so don't say that you are the richest man in the Tang Dynasty in the future, and you are not afraid of being laughed at by others.

Just when Li Hao was checking the final accounts, Li Zhi suddenly hurriedly ran into the inner office of the Assassin's Mansion and said, "Sir, the British Duke is here." ”

"Oh!" Li Hao was overjoyed when he heard this, hurriedly dropped the account book, got up and said, "Where is the British duke?" ”

Li Zhi said: "It's just outside the South City Gate." ”

"Let's go! Go meet him! Li Hao said that, and then rushed to the south city gate.

The southern city was originally open, due to the arrival of Li Ji's army, the city gate was temporarily closed, according to the rules, no matter what army came to the city, the city gate must be closed, and after the supreme commanders of both sides contacted each other, the supreme commander ordered the city gate to be opened before the door could be opened.

Li Hao went to the city to take a look, and sure enough, it was Li Ji, and he happily bowed his hand and said: "The poet is crazy to meet the British duke!" ”

Seeing this, Li Ji smiled and scolded: "Do you salute like this, stand so high, come down and do it all over again." ”

"Good! Ha ha! Li Hao laughed, and immediately ordered the city gate to be opened, and then left Li Zhi in the city, and went out to greet Li Ji himself.

Li Zhi also wanted to come out to greet Li Ji, but Li Zhi was the prince, although Li Ji was a prince, his status was lower than that of the prince, and there was no reason for the prince to go out of the city to welcome the prince, so Li Zhi could only wait in the city for Li Ji to come into the city to meet him, which made Li Zhi feel very helpless.

Li Hao went out of the city and saluted Li Ji again, Li Ji stepped forward to hold his hand, and then patted Li Hao on the shoulder hard, and said happily: "Poetry madness, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay!" ”

Li Hao said apologetically: "Uncle Li is worried." ”

"yes." Li Ji smiled and nodded, "This way, I can't sleep peacefully every day, for fear that your kid has three longs and two shorts, this errand should not have come from me, after all, it is not a big war, and it is not my turn, but as soon as the three of us old guys heard that you had an accident, we were worried about you, so we must grab this errand, and the three of us grinded with the emperor for a long time before we got this errand." ”

Li Hao apologized again: "It's worried about the three uncles, is Uncle Qin's body okay?" ”

"Uncle Bao is in good health." Li Ji smiled and said, "Since you cured him of a stubborn disease, he has paid special attention to his diet, and now I go to ask him to drink, and he has to excuse himself twice three times, hehe, the older he gets, the more afraid he is of death." ”

Li Hao grinned when he heard this, and said with a hippie smile: "What about Uncle Killing?" Is he okay? ”

"That old punk." Li Ji laughed when he heard this, "What kind of virtue is he, you know best, it's still the same." ”

Li Hao laughed with him, and after some greetings, Li Hao led Li Ji into the city.

Through the city gate, Li Ji saw Li Zhi and a group of Zuo Xiaowei guards standing in the middle of the street, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Minister Li Ji pays a visit to His Royal Highness the King of Jin." ”

"The British public is not formal." Li Zhi waved his hand solemnly and said, "The British Duke has come all the way to the dust, and the boat and car are tiring, and the king has ordered someone to prepare a house for the British Duke in the post house, and Li Thorn Shi has also prepared a banquet in the Thorn Shi Mansion to wash the dust for the British Princess." ”

Li Ji frowned when he heard this, turned his head to look at Li Hao, and then hesitated: "The catastrophe has not yet subsided, and the victims are still starving, so we have to drink a feast, which is not good." ”

Li Hao said with a smile: "The British public can rest assured that the food has already been solved, and the victims have been properly settled, fed and warmly dressed. ”

"Oh?" Li Ji raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and asked curiously, "How did you do it?" ”

Li Hao deliberately betrayed Guan Zi and said: "At the dinner later, I will talk to the British Duke about the things of these days." ”

The sun sank in the West Mountain, and a small table of wine banquets was placed in the living room of the Assassin's Mansion, to be honest, this wine banquet was not very high, but the dishes were good, many dishes were cooked by Li Hao himself, and Li Hao, Li Ji and Li Zhi were the three people who drank the banquet.

At the banquet, Li Hao told Li Ji all the things about their disaster management and rebellion, Li Ji was shocked after listening to it, in just a few days, Li Hao not only annihilated all the rebels and captured Li Jiancheng's son, but also silently did the Boling Cui clan, which was too fast.

After the shock, Li Ji's face was full of worry, Li Hao knew that he was taking into account Li Zhi's presence, and he didn't dare to say more, so he said: "Uncle Li has something to say, King Jin is not an outsider." ”

"Then I'll say it." Li Ji said slowly when he heard this, "Now that you have defeated the Boling Cui clan, the other warrior clans must have a grudge, although these warriors usually intrigue with each other, but if they encounter a foreign enemy, they will immediately join forces with the enemy, from now on, you must be more careful." ”

"Uncle Li rest assured." Li Hao nodded and said, "I have long expected this, I am sitting upright, and I have no handle for them to grasp, they can't do anything to me." ”

"That's right." Li Ji sighed helplessly, "There is a way that the open gun is easy to dodge and the dark arrow is difficult to prevent, these scholars should not be taken lightly, you need to know that countless important ministers in the court are also people of the scholar clan, say that you are most familiar with it, the eldest grandson, is one of them." ”

Li Hao couldn't help frowning when he heard this, to be honest, the performance of the eldest grandson Wuji in recent years has disappointed Li Hao, because his selfishness is getting heavier and heavier, the reason is that the eldest grandson Wuji is a member of the scholar clan, and the eldest grandson is a family of gate valves, if the eldest grandson Wuji wants to do it to himself, he is really a little dangerous, after all, although Li Shimin favors himself, he trusts the eldest grandson Wuji more, so to speak, among the ministers that Li Shimin trusts the most, the number of civil officials is the greatest, and the number of civil officials is the most, and the military positions are the most Cheng Yanjin and Qin Qiong. And Li Shimin's trust in the eldest grandson Wuji is especially above Cheng Biting Jin.

At this time, Li Zhi suddenly said: "British duke, uncle is a sensible person, Li Hao is a good person, he won't do anything to Li Hao." ”

Even Li Zhi spoke for the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Hao gradually frowned, he already felt that he and the eldest grandson Wuji had a conflict of interest, and after all, he had to go to the opposite side of him, if it was someone else, Li Hao didn't care, but the other party was the eldest grandson Wuji, the real first person under Li Shimin, and the most important thing was that the eldest grandson Wuji won the trust of Li Shimin, if he wanted to deal with the eldest grandson Wuji, it was absolutely impossible to borrow a little help from Li Shimin, and even Li Zhi could not help him, he could only rely on himself.

At this time, Li Ji said earnestly: "Poet maniac, you take it easy, the eldest grandson is not an idle person." ”

"Hmm." Li Hao nodded thoughtfully, "Uncle Li, don't worry, I know it in my heart." ”

"That'll be fine." Li Ji said calmly, "Although you are not very old, you have always been very measured in your work, and I am still very clear about this." ”

Li Zhi on the side didn't understand at all, and asked blankly: "What are you talking about, what does this have to do with being measured?" ”

Li Hao laughed and changed the topic: "It's nothing, I'm thinking, let the British Duke sit here for a few days, and by the way, see if His Majesty has a will, if not, we will go back together." ”

As soon as he mentioned going back, Li Zhi was unhappy, and muttered depressedly: "Alas, I'm going back to the cage again." ”

Li Hao smiled and asked, "What do you mean to go back to the cage?" ”

Li Zhi rolled his eyes and said: "Isn't Taiji Palace just a big cage, you can't come out if you stay inside, and occasionally you go out to your husband's house, and you have to calculate the time to return to the palace, how comfortable it is to stay outside." ”

Li Ji said: "If Your Highness doesn't like to live in the palace, you can tell the emperor when you go back, come out of the palace to live, Your Highness is fourteen years old this year, and you should have your own palace." ”

Li Hao was shocked when he heard this, frowned and looked at Li Ji, Li Ji saw Li Hao's eyes, and his heart was groaning, he realized that he might have said the wrong thing, Li Ji is such a smart person, a little guess, and immediately realized that Li Hao was planning to help the King of Jin ascend to the throne, this idea is really bold, the King of Jin is only fourteen years old, and the emperor has not cultivated him as a successor, so the King of Jin is still naïve, he knows nothing about the affairs of the court, and he has no wings to speak of, and there is no minister support in the court, and the throne will not be the turn of the King of Jin.

In fact, it is the same idea that everyone has with Li Ji, including Li Shimin, so Li Hao and Li Zhi are so close, everyone has no doubts, in the eyes of outsiders, Li Zhi is considered to be unlearned, and has no foundation, except for the identity of the prince, it can basically be said that there is nothing, as for Li Hao, that's right, Li Hao is very capable, very smart, very capable of doing things, and he is also powerful in war, but Li Hao has a shallow foundation, and he has no foundation in the court, let alone power, and there are many people who have offended, Li Hao is now regarded as in addition to his ability and the emperor's favor, There is nothing, the holy favor can be said to be the most unreliable, after all, the companion is like a tiger, maybe Li Hao will do something wrong one day, and as soon as the emperor is unhappy, Li Hao's holy favor will be gone.

With such two people coming together, how could anyone suspect that they would fight for the crown, even Li Shimin didn't think about it.

After Li Zhi listened to Li Ji's words, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Yes, the British Duke has reminded this king, this king is fourteen years old, and he can move out of Taiji Palace to live, and this king will ask his father for a palace when he goes back!" "I was so excited that I danced my chopsticks, not to mention how happy I was.

Li Hao sighed secretly when he heard this, Li Zhi lived in the palace and could have more contact with Li Shimin, even if he couldn't make Li Shimin have a good impression of him, at least he could get a familiar face, this out of the Taiji Palace, according to Li Zhi's unsuccessful temperament, it is estimated that he will be forgotten by Li Shimin in a few days, after Li Chengqian was deposed, when the candidate for the crown prince was determined, Li Zhi estimated that he was not even qualified for the nomination, he was still happy here, so happy, Li Hao really wanted to go up and slap him, and then pointed at his nose and shouted: "King Jin!" You can have some eyes! ”
