After writing these six words, Xiao Rui took a few steps back and looked at the mission in the historian system. He had already made up his mind.
This was a blatant scheme, and Li Shi Min would definitely take the bait.
The pit has already been dug, and it's just waiting for you to jump into it.
Li Shiming didn't know what Xiao Rui was thinking. He stood up from his seat and held the paper with his hand. He stared at Xiao Rui and moved his lips, preparing to speak.
Footsteps came from outside.
Eunuch Liu did not enter, but Xiao Yu, Fang Xuanling, and the others did. They did not bow formally.
Li Shiming's expression returned to normal. He looked at Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui and said,"Today, none of you have spoken. Now, feel free to speak. I have something to discuss with you.”
The door of the royal study closed.
Eunuch Liu was standing guard outside the palace. There were many spies in the palace, but Li Shiming knew most of the people's identities. Some news was spread through them.
But sometimes, they couldn't hear a word.
"Your Majesty, it's not difficult to deal with the disaster victims. However, the people of the five surnames and seven Wangs have ignored the government decrees in various places.”
"The real problem is that the imperial court is embezzling money from disaster relief.”
Li Shiming listened to Fang Xuanling's words. He knew about this, but the Five Families and Seven Wangs were silently resisting, but it was more vicious than a real fight.
Du Ruhui sighed." Your Majesty, delaying the disaster victims is like a bottomless cliff. No matter how much silver is thrown down, it will be useless."”
"Now that this lowly subject has racked my brains, there are only two worst plans.”
Du Ruhui's words caused everyone to look over. In fact, they had some idea of what to do. If they were to make a worst case scenario, they would have to suffer a thousand losses to the enemy and eight hundred losses to themselves. This kind of deal was too bad for the Great Tang.
Du Ruhui only paused for a moment before saying,"First, kill the chicken as an example to the monkeys. The five surnames and seven surnames will find a family to deal with them, and then split up to settle the disaster victims. This plan will take a long time, and it may cause the five surnames and seven surnames to counterattack.”
"Secondly, we can only do as Zhangsun Wuhou said. Kill, kill the corrupt officials, kill the grain merchants, kill the soldiers who plotted the rebellion, and kill the mastermind behind it.”
A scholar's brush was like a knife, and his tongue was like a sword.
Du Ruhui was able to participate in the planning of the Black Tortoise Sect's coup, so killing people was only a method to stabilize Li Shimin's empire.
Du Ruhui said.
No one said anything else. No one had expected that the disaster victims would quietly escalate to this point, and that it would even endanger the Great Tang.
Although the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs had added fuel to the fire, they were guilty of not investigating.
Xiao Yu took a deep breath and bowed."Your Majesty, as the Prime Minister, I should have assisted Your Majesty in governing the world. However, there is nothing I can do about this matter. It is my fault.”
Xiao Yu's words were spoken word by word without any falsehood.
Li Shimin supported Xiao Yu with both hands and said,"Keming, if you had wanted zhen to punish you fifteen minutes ago, zhen might have allowed you to retire in a fit of anger, but now zhen has received advice from someone.”
"Although it's only six words, it's worth thousands of gold.”
Li Shi Min's words piqued everyone's curiosity.
"Your Majesty, can these six words solve the problem of the disaster victims?" Zhangsun Wuji hurriedly asked. Is there really such an expert?"
Xiao Yu, Fang Xuanling, and the others looked at Li Shiming anxiously.
Li Shi Min nodded and said,"One jin of grain and three jin of chaff."”
After Li Shiming finished speaking, he subconsciously glanced at Xiao Rui, who seemed to be just doing his job as a historian, sitting there and recording honestly.
Everyone present was a smart person.
One jin of grain, three jin of chaff.
Zhangsun Wuji was the first to speak." Merchants make a fortune from national disasters. Rare goods are hoarded. They hoard food. Although the laws of the Tang Dynasty are strict, they collude with the upper and lower levels. There are many dirty places.”
"However, no one hoarded the bran. Now that we're using grain to exchange for bran for disaster relief, we can only save one person, but now we can save three.”
"Your Majesty, you woke me up. Where is this person? I must meet him and address him respectfully.”
The respect in Zhangsun Wuji's eyes was not fake at all.
Although the wheat bran was fed to horses and livestock, it was already extremely difficult for the disaster victims to survive. Why would they care about food or wheat bran?
Li Shiming needed the disaster victims to not cause a riot so that the Great Tang could recuperate.
These words resolved the crisis of the Great Tang.
If this was not considered an expert, then these strategists should have killed themselves.
After Zhangsun Wuji finished speaking, Li Shiming shook his head and said,"Now is not the time, but what do you think of this plan? Who do you think is suitable to handle this matter?”
After Li Shi Min finished speaking, the few of them fell into deep thought.
Li Shiming couldn't say that he was going to use wheat bran to relieve the disaster. Therefore, someone had to take the blame, and he had to take the blame well. Otherwise, it would be recorded in the historical records.
Li Shi Min's heart skipped a beat.
He subconsciously looked at Xiao Rui.
Realization dawned on him.
It seemed like the historian was Xiao Rui?
For the first time, Li Shimin felt nervous. Xiao Yu and the others were thinking about it and didn't notice the change in Li Shimin.
Xiao Rui's mouth curled into a smile. His brush swiftly recorded down. A new official had three fires. This first fire, after planning for so long, had finally started.
Li Shi Min, you've taken the bait!
