Chapter 34

After Li Tai arrived at the palace, he saw the emperor writing calligraphy with Qin Huaidao's paper.

The night before yesterday, the emperor brought a lot of them from Qin Huaidao, and now he can write and practice calligraphy happily.

And today, he also heard that Li Zhi and the others went out to choose a place. I guess this matter will definitely happen, and his heart disease can be gradually eliminated.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness the King of Wei is asking for a visit!" An eunuch came in and whispered to the emperor.

"Oh, let him in!" the emperor said happily.

The emperor thought to show him the words he wrote later. Li Tai still had high attainments in calligraphy and literature, and the emperor still liked this very much.

"My son has met my father, please make the decision for me!" After Li Tai came in, he knelt down first and said with a sad look on his face.

When Li Shimin saw him like this, he quickly put down his brush, walked to Li Tai, and helped Li Tai up.

"What's wrong? Who bullies you?" the emperor looked at Li Tai with concern and asked.

"My son, I went to Duke Hu's mansion today to worship Uncle Qin. Unexpectedly, after the worship, I was bombarded by Duke Hu's Duke Qin Huaidao! Father, Qin Huaidao didn't take me as the prince seriously at all!" Li Tai looked at Li Shimin with great grief and said.

When the emperor heard this, he went to Qin Huai's Mansion and felt a sudden sigh of relief, but he still held Li Tai down without changing his expression.

"Why do you come out and tell me? It's outrageous. How dare Duke Hu be so bold?" Li Shimin looked at Li Tai and began to ask seriously.

"That's right. Erchen brought some friends over. Because it was by the way, Erchen took them in. After all, the weather is so hot now that Erchen cannot let them dry outside.

But since Duke Hu was not given his name, he was shot out. Father, please make the decision for his son!” Li Tai said and knelt down again crying.

A man in his 20s actually squeezed out tears.

"Okay, okay, my father will give you justice. Sit down and say, sit down and say!" The emperor still valued Li Tai very much, but the emperor did not believe what Li Tai said just now.

Qin Huaidao is famously cautious, how could he be so bold and knocked the King of Wei out of the mansion? There must be something else he doesn't know.

"Your Majesty!" At this moment, a doctor from the Menxia Province came in with a memorial.

"Well, what's the matter?" the emperor asked casually.

"There is a memorial here, which was presented by Duke Hu! He said that he asked His Majesty to preside over justice for him!" The doctor stood there and said a little embarrassedly.

After all, he saw Li Tai crying there, but this memorial was very important and involved a prince, who dared not keep it and not send it.

"Yes!" The emperor heard it, took over the memorial and looked carefully.

"Father, he must have bullied the sons and ministers, saying that the sons and ministers did not let those people inform them, but those people were all friends of the sons and were just sitting in the summer vacation. The sons and ministers wanted to talk to him!" Li Tai heard that it was Qin Huaidao's memorial and immediately started talking anxiously.

He didn't expect that Qin Huaidao's memorial would come so quickly.

The emperor looked at the memorial and understood what was going on at this moment. Of course, Li Tai did not tell him the truth.

In the memorial, Qin Huaidao said that Li Tai brought a group of children from aristocratic families to ask for the management rights of paper, but Qin Huaidao was bombarded out!

The emperor was a little annoyed about Li Tai at this moment. Can those aristocratic families have such kindness? Can the paper be sold if the children of their aristocratic families have so much intention?

Then there will be no paper on the market. Those aristocratic families are rich and so many aristocratic families spend a total of tens of thousands of yuan a year, but they still dare to spend it.

Even saying that paper will be sold to other countries, but his Tang Dynasty did not, and this aristocratic family can definitely make it.

"Well, I already know. Boping apologized to you in the memorial just now, so don't pursue it.

You also know that this child is very cautious and does not want to be an official. You suddenly brought so many people to his house, which may have scared him!" The emperor still did not get angry with Li Tai, but made an excuse.

The emperor is well aware of the art of weighing the trade-offs. Aristocratic families must want to find a spokesperson. They can't find a prince. After all, if the prince is not stupid, he will not be tied with the children of aristocratic families. Moreover, although the prince is eccentric, he is not stupid. After following His Majesty for so many years, he is well aware of the dangers of aristocratic families.

Only Li Tai is now in urgent need of support from important officials of the court, and the aristocratic families are not short of officials, so Li Tai is now targeted by the aristocratic families. The emperor knows this very well!

Now the emperor also needs those aristocratic families to join forces and launch a spokesperson. Otherwise, he still doesn’t know what kind of trouble they will cause, so he always has to give them hope, right?

"Father, are you just watching your son be bullied by him?" Li Tai stood there, looking at the emperor pitifully and asked.

"The father will send someone to scold him later and make him respect you in the future!" The emperor still comforted Li Tai.

"Father, I need justice for this matter!" Li Tai said and knelt down again.

Seeing him like this, the emperor wished he could kick him now. Justice? What kind of justice? Do you want to ruin the Tang Dynasty and give you justice?

"Well, the father will punish him, but now the father needs to investigate. You also know that Boping just mentioned the duke. If the father punishes him now, he cannot explain to the ministers in the court. He will have to wait some time before he talks, okay?" The emperor continued to persuade Li Tai.

When Li Tai heard this, he knew that his father would definitely not hold Qin Huaidao accountable, and he was very unwilling to accept it.

But there was no way. Qin Huaidao sent a memorial, and he must have explained something, but he couldn't see the memorial.

"Okay, go and rest. Look at you sweating heavily. Go back and wash up and have a good rest. Boping's side, my father will go and say it!" The emperor still persuaded Li Tai with kind words.

After persuading Li Tai away, Li Shimin stood there, holding Qin Huaidao's memorial tightly in his hand, and then said, "Come on!"

"I'm here!" A commander stood up from behind.

"Check for me, who were the ones who went to Duke Hu's mansion with Qingque today, and found out clearly!" The emperor stood there and said with a dark face.

"Yes!" The captain turned around and went out after clasping his fists.

Li Shimin returned to the front of the desk and placed the memorial in front of the desk, and had no mood to continue writing.

After Li Tai left the palace, he was also so angry that he was itchy.

He knew that the emperor would not stand up for him this time, but he just couldn't swallow his breath and wanted to take revenge on Qin Huaidao now. This is his personality. Anyone who offended him will take revenge on the same day!

"Go and call Lu Dongzan here!" Li Tai walked up to the carriage with his hands behind his back and said to a guard beside him.

Lu Dongzan is the prime minister of Tubo and is still in the Tang Dynasty. He is now married to the princess of the Tang Dynasty for their Zanpu.

Now that the emperor has agreed to marry, he will choose a princess with both talent and beauty from the royal family to marry him to Tubo!

"Yes!" When the guard heard this, he immediately ran to the horse next to him and rode away.

An hour later, a list appeared in front of Li Shimin's desk.

Li Shimin looked at the list and immediately knew that what Qin Huaidao said was true. Those aristocratic families started to act now, or rather, they started to test now.

"Have the King of Jin returned?" the emperor sat there and asked.

"Return to Your Majesty, I just came back shortly after I was sweating. I might be washing up now!" An eunuch heard it and quickly reported.

"Yeah!" When His Majesty heard it, he took Qin Huaidao's memorial and began to annotate it with a cinnabar pen, wrote some words, and then took the memorial and walked towards the side hall where Li Zhi lived.

When he arrived at Li Zhi's study, he saw Li Zhi writing something in front of the desk!

"Your Majesty is here!" The eunuch saw the emperor walking forward and spoke to remind him.

When Li Zhi heard this, he immediately put down his pen, stood up, and saluted his father: "My son has seen him!"

"Well, what are you writing?" His Majesty looked at Li Zhi with a smile and asked.

"Well, we just found the land. I'm writing a memorial. I hope you can agree to give this land to the paper mill to requisition it. It's all wasteland. I've seen it myself! It has not occupied the land of the people! It's under the jurisdiction of the Chang'an Prefecture!" Li Zhi said.

As soon as he spoke, he was helped up by the emperor.

"Oh, have you chosen? OK, have you finished writing?" His Majesty looked at Li Zhi happily and asked.

"I'm almost finished writing, mainly in the territory. My son has just gone to the Ministry of Revenue to check it out, and then I'm back writing this. My father and I'll be able to finish writing soon!" Li Zhi said to the emperor.

He knew that the emperor valued this matter very much.

"Well, okay, you write!" Li Shimin nodded, went to the tea set, and prepared to make tea.

Li Zhi continued to sit down and write.

After finishing writing, the emperor had already made the tea and put it on the mat opposite him, asking Li Zhi to sit down and say.

"Father, look!" Li Zhi handed the memorial to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin took it, then stretched out his hand, and an eunuch immediately handed over the cinnabar pen.

After reading it, the emperor made annotations and agreed to ask the Ministry of Civil Affairs to order the Chang'an prefect to do it immediately. He also knew that the paper came out and there was still a lot of things to do.

"Boping followed you out today?" the emperor asked with a smile.

"I went there, searched all the way, and it was not until noon. After searching, we started to measure. Boping said that it is necessary to design a factory building and house, as well as a garrison for the defense forces. This is very important!" Li Zhi nodded and bowed to his father and said.

"Oh, Boping still knows this?" The emperor asked curiously when he heard it.

"He wants his son and others to go to his mansion early tomorrow morning to get the drawings, and then prepare for construction. Otherwise, there may not be enough time!" Li Zhi stood there and spoke,
Chapter completed!
