Li Shi Min went crazy for a while and vented a lot of the frustration in his heart.
After all, he was the emperor of the ages. Li Shimin's self-adjustment ability was still very good. After telling him about the troublesome matter, his mood became smoother.
Wasn't it just a flood? Could it be more tragic than when he personally led three thousand black armored cavalry and defeated Dou Jiande by a hundred thousand? Could it be more terrifying than the locust plague that covered the sky and covered the sun? Could it be more dangerous than when he had just ascended the throne and the Turkic Jie were about to attack Chang 'an? At that time, he even dared to risk his life to sign the Wei River alliance with Jie Li.
Compared to these, a small flood was really nothing!
"When you came, you were all smiles. Did you encounter something interesting?”Li Shimin said to Empress Zhangsun,"Tell me so that I can be happy."”
Empress Zhangsun said in a somewhat reproachful tone,""It's all because of that Xiao Tian. I wanted him to study with Chengqian and the others, but I was afraid that he would cause trouble, so I went to Wenhua Hall early in the morning…"
Li Shimin listened to Empress Zhangsun's excited tone as she recounted what had happened in the Wenhua Hall.
Hearing Xiao Tian call Empress Zhangsun a beautiful sister and then beat up Du He, causing Gao Yang to step forward, Li Shimin's face revealed a trace of a smile. He was from the military and did not care about trifles, so he was not angry at Xiao Tian's actions. In addition, the reason why he liked Gao Yang the most out of all the daughters was because Gao Yang carried a sense of loyalty that only martial artists had.
Therefore, for Gao Yang to take the initiative to stand up, not only did he not blame him, he was even somewhat gratified.
As for Empress Zhangsun's sudden decision to give Gao Yang and Xiao Tian a three year deadline, he did not comment on it. He did not kill Xiao Tian back then because he had thought about this. If Xiao Tian really had talent, it was not impossible to betroth Gao Yang to Xiao Tian.
However, when he heard Xiao Tian calling himself the successor of the Mo Family, a trace of displeasure flashed across Li Shiming's face. The Mohists emphasized universal love and not offense, and he was an emperor who wanted to achieve something. This was naturally incompatible with the Mohists.
As for mathematics and calligraphy, ordinary people would definitely be amazed when they heard it, but Li Shimin did not care at all. Mathematics might be useful, but calligraphy? What was the use of that?
When he heard Empress Zhangsun mention that she deliberately complained about not having money, Li Shimin smiled and said,""You too. The Great Ming Palace has only been built for two years. Although the other palaces are a little dilapidated, they are much better than the residences of ordinary people. Forget it. Let's wait until next year. When the palace treasury is a little more abundant, we can get people to repair them.”
"Next year? Are you sure the palace treasury will have money next year?" "I don't know who said that last year!" Empress Zhangsun teased.”
"Cough! Cough!" "This time, I promise I won't use a single cent of the palace treasury!"”
Most dynasties had the national treasury and the palace treasury. The national treasury was taken from the people and used by the people. Even the emperor could not use it for his own use. Of course, the exception was a fatuous ruler!
The palace treasury was the emperor's small treasury. It was his private money. The emperor could make decisions on this money and was responsible for all kinds of expenses in the palace. Li Shiming did not interfere in the internal court's matters, so the money in the palace treasury had always been handled by Empress Zhangsun. But the problem was that the Great Tang's treasury was always empty. From time to time, there would be no money. Those ministers began to have designs on the palace treasury. Li Shi Min still believed that the country was more important than family matters, so he had to replenish the palace treasury's money several times.
In fact, the reason why Empress Zhangsun cried poverty to everyone she saw was not because she really had no money in her hands. It was because she wanted to use this method to tell those officials not to have any more ideas about the palace treasury. Otherwise, she would have ideas about the national treasury!
Empress Zhangsun rolled her eyes. It would be strange if she believed him!
"Needless to say, Kong Yingda must be talking about the flood in Henan Province, right?" Li Shimin laughed. Other than this, I really can't think of any other answer! As for this Xiao Tian, could it be that he really thought of a solution for you?”
" He really only came up with one idea…" Zhangsun recounted Xiao Tian's idea.
Li Shiming didn't think much of it, but his face turned uglier as he listened. Kong Yingda, as the representative of the Confucians, did not like this kind of method. Similarly, as the Emperor, he did not want people like Su Qin and Zhang Yi to appear. Such a person was definitely the source of chaos in the world!
Xiao Tian's method was very simple. It was nothing more than telling a small lie. However, he could toy with those smart people in the world.
It was because of this that Li Shi Min was a little afraid. This was just a random idea. What if Xiao Tian was given a few days to think about it? What if this question was not about a hundred thousand strings of strings, but about how to destroy the Great Tang?
Thinking of this, Li Shi Min's heart was filled with killing intent. However, this killing intent disappeared in a flash. Li Shi Min couldn't help but laugh. When did he become so intolerant? His Great Tang was impregnable. Even if Su Qin and Zhang Yi were reborn, he would not fear them! Xiao Tian was just a child. How could he turn the world upside down?
However, since Xiao Tian was a talent, he had to think of a way to prevent Xiao Tian from going astray.
"Guanyin maid, in a while, you should come with me to the Prime Minister's place. You have to give him an explanation. Also, tomorrow…"
