Chapter 309 Your Majesty, don't be deceived!

The relationship between people is often so strange.

Some people are thousands of miles apart but have been intimate for a long time, and have never met each other but are best friends. Some people are obviously the same, but meeting them is like meeting enemies who kill their father and never die.

Fate is really wonderful.

Li Hao: No, I am not the same as that stupid person.

Wang Yuanliang, who thought he had mastered Li Hao's handle, was in a good mood. He was already feeling a little nervous because he went to Beijing to report his work. He secretly wondered how to give some eye drops to some people when he saw the emperor.

When the carriage entered the city, Wang Yuanliang first went to the Ministry of Personnel.

Officials of the Ministry of Personnel did not dare to neglect the person summoned by His Majesty the Emperor. Although they disliked Wang Yuanliang's behavior of being above the top, they still took him into the palace without saying a word.

In the palace, Li Er was reviewing the memorials. Except for the urgent documents in Guanzhong, other parts of the country were basically filled with praises.

It is generally similar to what auspiciousness appears here, what strange scenery appears there, the people live and work in peace, do not pick up the roads in the jurisdiction, do not close their doors at night, etc., all the words praise His Majesty the Emperor, which made Li Er blush, not knowing whether it was shame or excitement.

It was under such circumstances that Wang Yuanliang met Li Er. After seeing him, he stood beside him and waited for the emperor to speak out.

Although this person has a high opinion of himself, he will have no choice but to know clearly that in front of Li Er, he is not even considered a younger brother.

"Give it a seat." Li Er, who was in a good mood, waved his hand casually, and someone immediately brought Jindun over.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wang Yuanliang bowed and thanked him, sat up steadily, feeling a little proud. It seemed that he still had some status in front of His Emperor, otherwise he would not have been able to get into a seat when he came.

"Wang Qing has worked hard all the way, right?" Li Er put down the memorial similar to a letter of praise in his hand and asked quietly.

Wang Yuanliang bowed slightly and made a trepidation statement: "Your Majesty is concerned about it, but I am afraid."

"Hey, Wang Qing doesn't have to do this. I just want to learn about the situation outside Dengzhou."

Li Er's tone seemed to chat with family, and Wang Yuanliang's ears represented the court's trust in him. His heart couldn't help but become hot. He coughed and said: "Your Majesty, Dengzhou is the largest port in the north. Every day, there are a large number of Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla merchants who admire the culture of the Celestial Kingdom cross the sea to trade, contributing considerable tariffs to our Tang Dynasty."

"Well, it's very good, let's continue." Li Er couldn't let Wang Yuanliang play a solo show alone, nodded and agreed, indicating that he would listen very seriously.

Seeing that Li Eryi was very interested, Wang Yuanliang said intimately that an opportunity had come and changed the subject: "However..., the sea off the Dengzhou coast was a little uneasy during this period. Many bandits caused Baekje and Silla merchants because of their concern that the goods were lost, and they all feared that Dengzhou would be too afraid of avoiding Dengzhou, which seriously affected Dengzhou's maritime trade."

"Oh? I remember there should be a navy in Dengzhou, why are there still bandits at the sea?" Li Er frowned.

"Your Majesty clearly understands that there is indeed a naval army in Dengzhou, led by the commander of the Zhechong Duwei Wang Wendu. However, Wang Wendu is stubborn and obeys the command and not the prophecy. I cannot command him at all. Especially after the Prince of Wei, Li Dejian, arrived in Dengzhou some time ago, the two colluded with each other. I wanted to punish him, but was blocked by the Prince Li Dejian and forced him away."

Although Wang Wuliang's oral statements were somewhat different from what Li Hao said, who was Li Er and how could he not see through the tricks, his face gradually became colder: "Li Dejian was so bold?"

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, the sea outside Dengzhou would not be in such chaos. In fact, after Prince Wei took his fleet to sea in Dengzhou, he completely forgot his identity as a court official. He plundered the caravans on the sea to make money. He even went deep into Baekje for his own selfishness, and the people of Baekje were living in vain and wars were everywhere. What's more, Prince Wei ignored the influence and occupied the territory of Danluo, held Prince Danluo hostage, and forced the whole country of Danluo to work for his daily life."

Wang Yuanliang was indignant in the end, and he looked like he had an irreconcilable grudge with Li Hao.

However, he was also a sect with background at least. He was threatened by an outsider in his own land by Li Hao. Not only did he want to deal with the person he wanted to deal with, he also lost 150,000 yuan in money.

If you can endure this, what will you have in the future?

But Wang Yuanliang didn't know that Li Hao had reported all these things to Li Er, and even the 150,000 stagnant of money he "contributed" had already been entered into the palace treasury.

Therefore, in Li Er's current performance, he is like a clumsy clown, not only without any sympathy, but his heart is full of disgust.

Putting aside the officialdom, I just talk about you as an illegitimate sect in your forties, and you can't beat a newly grown child who doesn't know how to reflect on yourself, but you still have the face to come to me to complain. Are you pretending to be shit in your mind? Such a fool, how can I feel at ease to hand over a state prefecture to you?

However, considering that Wang Yuanliang is from the Wang family and his brother-in-law is an old minister of the three dynasties, Li Er did not scold him for thinking for a moment and said, "I already know about this. I will send someone to investigate soon. You should go back and rest first. If you have time to go to your brother-in-law's mansion, you are the legitimate relatives, and you can meet one by one."

"..." Why does this sound so strange? Wang Yuanliang twitched his mouth, took a deep breath, and seemed to remember something while getting up and saying goodbye: "Your Majesty, when I first entered the city, I saw that it seemed that the road was being built outside?"

Li Er nodded and said, "Yes, the court plans to let Li Dejian be responsible for building a cement road from Chang'an to Luoyang. Why? What suggestions do Wang Qing have?"

"I can't say anything about the suggestion, but..." Wang Yuanliang showed a worrying expression of the country and the people: "Your Majesty, I think it's better to not build the cement road. After all, you can tell from the name that cement roads are all mud. When I entered the city, I saw with my own eyes that the road was muddy and the people around me even complained."

I'm afraid this is not a fool? Cement has long been a new thing in the Tang Dynasty, especially for the old people in the officialdom, everyone knows it. How ignorant is this guy in front of him to say such words.

Li Er said that he could not complain, and waved his hand and said weakly: "Wang Qing, go, I have my own arrangements for the cement road."
