200,000?
Tang Jian hurriedly shook his head and said excitedly,"Your Majesty, it's far more than this. The First Prince has already collected 1.5 million strings of money!”
Li Shimin, who was sitting casually, suddenly stood up and widened his eyes."What did you say? 1.5 million strings?"
"Your Majesty, a total of 1,507,300 strings!" Tang Jian said firmly.”
Li Shi Min's breathing stopped for a moment, then he laughed out loud in surprise.
"Good, good, good, good!"
"1,500,000 strings in two days, this Li Chengxun kid really gave this one a surprise.”
"This is unexpected, this is too unexpected.”
Li Shi Min was excited and praised Li Chengxun.
He completely disregarded his image in front of his officials. His dancing and dancing looked like an ordinary father who was proud and excited about his son.
After a long time, he came back to his senses and looked at Tang Jian curiously."The donations he received yesterday were only tens of thousands. How did it suddenly reach 1.5 million today? What exactly happened?"
" Your Majesty," Tang Jian said after some consideration," the First Prince has made a plan. He has asked His Highness the Crown Prince, His Highness the Prince of Jin, and His Highness the Prince of Yan to help him transport a batch of donations to the Ministry of Revenue.
Then, the First Prince and Minister Du worked together to spread the news among the officials, saying that the Crown Prince, Prince Jin, and the others respected the First Prince very much and were helping the First Prince transport the money.
Minister Du said that if he gave the donation to the Crown Prince, it would definitely make the other princes unhappy.
If he gave it to the other princes, the crown prince would be unhappy.
Then he would directly hand over the donations to the First Prince, who was deeply respected by the princes.
Thus, all the officials imitated Minister Du and said that they didn't want to offend anyone, so they gave the donations to the Great Prince whom the kings respected…"
After hearing this, Li Shi Min's eyes sparkled as he sighed inwardly.
This eldest son of his had used a very powerful plot!
Amazing, this brat was really amazing in terms of strategy!
Li Shi Min could imagine how aggrieved his other sons would be.
He knew that he had been used by his big brother and that the officials in the court had seen through this plot, but he still couldn't blame them.
After all, everyone is following the footsteps of the Crown Prince, the King of Jin, and the King of Yan.
"Asking the Crown Prince, the King of Wei, and the King of Jin to help transport the money to the Ministry of Revenue, how did Li Chengxun do it?”
Li Shiming thought of the key point. He knew that his sons had always been at odds with Li Chengxun. This was definitely not a simple matter.
"This…"
Tang Jian hesitated.
How could he dare to say the details? After all, the Crown Prince and the other kings had to swallow their broken teeth because they were afraid that the emperor would find out about the problem.
"Just say it. I promise you that I will only listen and not do anything else.”
Li Shimin saw Tang Jian's dilemma and waved his hand with a smile.
Tang Jian thought for a moment and said," Your Majesty, the Crown Prince, the King of Wei, the King of Jin, the King of Yan, and the King of Liang paid for it themselves and joined forces with some officials to make false accounts for the donation."”
Li Shi Min frowned and asked,""They were tricked by Li Chengxun, right?”
"I don't know…"
Tang Jian braced himself and replied.
He still wanted to say a few words on Li Chengxun's behalf.
"Alright, this one will not make things difficult for you. However, this matter cannot be publicized. Moreover, the Crown Prince, Prince Jin, and the others are still too young. It is normal for them to make some mistakes.”
"Alright, you can go back now."
Li Shi Min said on the surface that the Crown Prince and the others were still young and easy to make mistakes.
However, in his heart, he cursed the five princes one by one.
Idiot, an extremely stupid idiot!
He did not blame Li Chengxun at all.
Instead, he felt that Li Chengxun had done a good job.
He felt that with Li Chengxun, the eldest son, around, he could whip the other princes at any time, which was also beneficial to the growth of the other princes.
"I will take my leave!"
Tang Jian heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly walked out of the royal study.
"Defend the city."
"This servant is here!"
"Yan Mo, Zhen wants to give Li Chengxun another piece of calligraphy.”
"Here!"
Li Shimin called the Imperial Attendant in and then picked up the brush.
Line after line of words, the strokes were vigorous and powerful, and the aura was very strong.
Each line was also lecturing Qin Shihuang, Han Gaozu, and the new Taizu Wang Mang.
Qin Shi Huang, Liu Bang, and Wang Mang were shot again.
The Imperial Attendants Supervisor looked at those words and secretly broke out in a cold sweat.
How much did the saints look down on Qin Shihuang, Han Gaozu, and Wang Mang?
Why did he have to demote these people every time?
Fortunately, Qin Shihuang, Han Gaozu, and the new Taizu were all ancient people. If they were in the present world, wouldn't they be angered to death by the saints?
"Go, get the imperial kitchen to prepare some delicious food to reward my Saint Child. Deer penis soup can't be lacking either. His body is relatively weak, so he needs to be nourished.”
"Here!"
" When you give him this calligraphy, tell him that Qin Shihuang, Liu Bang, Wang Mang, and Yang Guang are rare examples of negative examples. Not only are they the mother of success, but their brains might have been kicked by a donkey. There's a problem, a big problem…"
