Li Zhi smiled and said: "Since you want to live in a high-rise building, you must be prepared to face the trouble they cause.

We are the lords of the world, and we cannot trap our ministers in unjust places."

Wu Mei said: "It's no big deal."

Li Zhi smiled and said: "I hope so, but is there anything I don't know that you know?"

Wu Mei smiled and said: "Your Majesty does not know something. After we go to Luoyang, there are wealthy families from Shandong and Hebei preparing to settle in Chang'an."

Li Zhi frowned and said, "Did Yunchu and the others recruit them?"

Wu Mei shook her head and said: "It is not the turn of people like Yun Chu to make the decision for those wealthy families in this matter."

"So, someone is interested in my Chang'an?"

"Your Majesty chose to go to Luoyang because Chang'an could no longer support the increasingly large Tang Dynasty. However, His Majesty abandoned Chang'an. In the eyes of some people, Chang'an is still the best place to live after Luoyang.

Whether it is Shandong, Hebei, or other local big families, they think that Chang'an is undoubtedly the best way to enter the Tang Dynasty."

Li Zhi frowned and said, "Who are all those people who want to enter Chang'an?"

Wu Mei said: "Zhaojun Li, Qinghe Cui, Fan Yanglu, Xingyang Zheng, Langya Wang, Lanling Xiao, Hongnong Yang, Jingzhao Du, Longxi Li, Taiyuan Wang, Hedong Liu, Hedong Xue, Jingzhao Wei, Hedong Pei,

Boling Cui.

There are countless small and medium-sized families who follow these wealthy families."

Li Zhi sneered and said, "How do they get to Beijing?"

Wu Mei chuckled lightly and said: "Marriage, the princess you pointed out to the prince is a girl from the Pei family in Hedong.

Because of the crown princess, Hedong Pei had the confidence to move his family to Chang'an, and the other wealthy families also put aside their social status and began to discuss marriage with the officials of the Tang Dynasty.

As far as I know, the second son of Li Yifu married a woman this year from the Liu family in Hedong, and the nephew of Xu Jingzong last year married a woman from Fan Yanglu. As for other families, there are also men who have married daughters of wealthy families, or have children.

Married into these wealthy families.

Over the past three or five years, it has been densely intertwined into a big network. Although it cannot withstand the wind and rain of His Majesty, we are already ready and are waiting for His Majesty to move the capital to Luoyang.

Woolen cloth."

Li Zhi thought for a while and said: "So, Yun Chu and Wen Wen are so ambitious in building the Daming Palace. Is this why Xingqing Palace has the confidence?

Also, have they started to get involved with these big families?"

Wu Mei smiled and said: "Although Yun Chu has a humble official position, he is a noble and aloof person. Submitting to Your Majesty, the Lord of the World, seems to be the limit of what he can do. How can he be so low and wretched that he is in vain?"

Go serve those wealthy families."

Li Zhi smiled and said: "I didn't see where this cold high bank of two hundred and fifty is."

Wu Mei smiled and said: "Although it is not certain that Yun Chu is the son of Master Xuanzang, judging from the relationship between them, even if he is not, he is almost the same as his biological son, or even worse.

Master Xuanzang was born in Buddhism and has been a Buddhist venerable for so many years. If he wants to shine his obscure Dharma and Consciousness-only Sect, he cannot do without your majesty’s support. With Xuanzang’s actions in pushing Yunchu, he has no

The necessity and reasons for entangled with wealthy families.

Although Yunchu was most likely the son of Master Xuanzang, he was noticed by Sun Shenxian and accepted as his disciple. This is very rare.

You can tell who Sun Shenxian is just by looking at his behavior over the past hundred years. He has experienced so many emperors and generals, so many changes of dynasties, the death of a father and the replacement of a son, and the bones of others.

It has long since turned into clay, but Sun Shenxian is still Sun Shenxian, who can do anything to him?

The two sects of Buddhism and Taoism are constantly fighting, but Sun Shenxian, who is also the ancestor of the Taoist sect, has made a style that is no different from Master Xuanzang. One gives the world the concept of a model son, and the other gives the world a clear disciple.

concept.

If these two people didn't know who Yunchu was, they definitely wouldn't do this.

After talking about these two people, I would like to ask Your Majesty, you were the one who picked up Yun Chu at a very young age, can you tell me how Yun Chu came into His Majesty's eyes?"

After listening to Wu Mei's words, Li Zhi pondered for a while and said: "I like him very much. Of course, what he does is also very in line with my taste."

Wu Mei said: "Nothing else?"

Li Zhidao: "I have seen thousands of talented people, but the only one who really makes me feel comfortable is Yun Chu."

Wu Mei smiled and said, "That's true. When I first met Yun Chu, His Majesty was having a duel with Duke Ying. He was guarding outside the Tai Chi Palace wearing armor and holding a sharp knife.

It was getting dark at that time, and although I couldn't see the person's face clearly, I saw the person standing outside the palace holding a sharp knife, but she didn't feel the danger, and she went over to talk with interest for a while.

Although the man's nervous words at the time did not convey what he meant, I only found it interesting and felt nothing else.

What makes me feel most strange is that your prince Li Hong, when he first met this person, wanted to leave my arms to get close to Yun Chu, but he cried endlessly when he was not allowed to move. After entering Yun Chu's arms,

He kept giggling.

As for Princess Anding Li Si, she grew up in the Yun family, but she had never been wronged in the slightest. When someone from the palace came to retaliate, although Li Si was not good-looking at all when she was young, Yun Chu was willing to put her on his neck and jump high.

The low one is no different from the love between father and daughter.

Even Aunt Chun, whom I trust most, although she is a fool, spoke for the Yunchu family for the first time.

Why does Your Majesty think this is the case?"

After Li Zhi thought for a long time, he said: "I still don't feel any malice... All he wants is for Chang'an to be prosperous and healthy."

Wu Mei let out a long sigh and said: "I even know that this person must be related to the Tibetan envoys who killed the people and the Xianyang Bridge explosion, but they are not interested in investigating the matter. I must be the same for Your Majesty, right?"

Li Zhi smiled and said: "Without these two explosions, how could I have obtained such a big killer like gunpowder... Hehehehe... Besides, the first time this thing came out, the Tubo people were blown away.

I accidentally obtained the gunpowder, so I don't feel the need to investigate."

Wu Mei nodded and said: "This is why I am willing to give him a chance to see how he faces the swarming wealthy families. I also want to see how he responds to the great opportunity of the capital's eastward movement."

Li Zhi chuckled and said, "If we just stay on our own, we will naturally wait and see what happens.

If you actively communicate with each other and weave a web, don't blame me for taking care of him when I take care of these wealthy families."

"What if he wants to trick these wealthy families this time?"

Li Zhi smiled and said: "I have no less than a thousand cities. It is not a big deal for me to leave Chang'an to him and let him realize his dream of turning this city into a paradise city."

After saying that, he raised his tea cup and bumped it with Wu Mei. The man and woman looked at each other and smiled, and everything was understood.

On the 10th, Wannian County Magistrate Yun Chu and Chang'an County Magistrate Wen Wen published the "Plan for the Reconstruction of the Old City of Chang'an City and the Construction of Daming Palace and Xingqing Square", which caused a huge stir in the court.

Some imperial censors accused Yun Chu and Wen Wen of being evil thieves who harmed the world. They also said that once the Daming Palace and Xingqing Palace are completed, the Tang Empire will be conquered by the people of the world...

The Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Works, the General, and the Shaofu Supervisor all declared at the same time that they would not help the tyrants and help Yun Chu and Wen Wen to bring harm to the world.

The emperor sat above him, silent and showing no sign of joy or anger. Therefore, Li Yifu, Xu Jingzong and others, who had always taken the emperor's speech as a guide, also remained silent and just watched their subordinates frothing at the mouth below.

Yun and Wen.

Naturally, such a big matter cannot be decided in a court meeting.

Especially after Yun Chu and Wen Wen presented the renderings of the transformed Chang'an, the opposition became even louder.

This time, Yun Chu and Wen Wen not only changed Chang'an's original plan, but even prepared six commercial districts and cities to communicate with each other through water networks. In this way, the curfew in Chang'an City would become a decoration.

In the eyes of the censors, this was not a transformation, but a complete destruction of Chang'an City's defenses.

The opposition became even more fierce.

What they didn't realize was the smile on the emperor's lips after seeing this rendering.

When the emperor was there, the main function of Chang'an City was security. If he was gone, what would Chang'an City do with such an airtight defense? Could it be that it was convenient for it to stand on its own in the future?

The same huge rendering of Chang'an City was almost drowned in the saliva of the courtiers in the court hall.

After it was posted on the notice boards at the government offices of Wannian County and Chang'an County, it attracted cheers from all the people.

This time, a total of sixteen cities were included in the transformation sequence. The people of Chang'an City now know that as long as they actively participate in the transformation of the city, their original shabby earth houses will be turned into two-story brick houses.

Needless to say, once these new houses are sold, you can buy a lot of good land and live a good life back in the countryside.

Even if you don't leave Chang'an City, you can sell this new house and then go to a remote city to buy two or three old houses. In this way, a big family will have two or three houses at once, which can solve very difficult problems.

Much trouble.

Those who really got into the carnival were the merchants in Chang'an City who were involved in business operations and building houses.

In the past two years, since Yun Chu has been away, Chang'an City's plan to renovate old houses has been suspended for two years. Many people in the city have been looking forward to the old renovated houses, because as long as their city has entered the old reform policy,

People can make a fortune, and various commercial facilities related to people's livelihood will be stationed in the entire market, such as hospitals, schools, rice, flour, grain and oil markets...

Living standards can be greatly improved.

As long as people have money at home, the biggest uses are to build houses and buy land. There is no farmland for sale in Chang'an City, so building houses is the only thing that people are willing to spend money on.

Now, building a house without having to spend money has become a good business for the people to make money. Therefore, the people in Chang'an were in a stir. For a while, there were a lot of discussions in the streets and alleys, all about the house.
