Duan Lun and Dai Zhou didn't say a word along the way. They took the film to the palace.
The two of them were very happy. Although they did not take advantage of the previous incident, this incident allowed them to avoid being scolded by Li Shimin.
This is simply wonderful.
This kind of thing will happen more often in the future.
As ministers, they already know how to get along with the emperor.
This is also the reason why they have been able to serve as officials for many years. Compared with some people, they are indeed doing well.
Let's say that the two of them walked towards the Daming Palace at a fast pace. This matter must be completed as soon as possible.
When they arrived at Daming Palace, Li Shimin was standing by the window looking into the distance.
When the two arrived, Li Shimin was still looking out the window.
The sky outside is blue.
Tall buildings are rising one after another.
At this time, he was probably lost in thought again.
Throughout the ages, no emperor has done as well as him.
Before the Tang Dynasty, there was no historical record that the country could develop like this.
It turns out that buildings can be as high as the clouds and can turn a capital city into a modern existence. Before Li Min came, he didn't dare to think about it at all. After Li Min came, he didn't even think about it at all.
It's really an existence that brings him good luck.
At this moment.
He never thought that he would be standing on a 100-meter-high building, overlooking everything in Chang'an.
This feeling is very strange.
He was even thinking about the future.
But what they were thinking about was only a year from now, and I'm afraid they would have to find out from Li Min in the future.
At this time, Queen Changsun stood beside him.
Dai Zhou and Duan Lun had arrived long ago, but they did not dare to speak.
They did not dare to interrupt the conversation between the two.
Just stood aside quietly.
Li Shimin said: "I watched the buildings in Chang'an being built one after another. Their heights are almost the same as those of the Daming Palace! This makes people feel a little depressed! I can't see farther away!"
Emperors like to stand high and look far ahead. They are the highest beings in the entire country and are not allowed to have beings who love themselves higher, or even to the same extent.
That's how it used to be!
Li Shimin pointed out that the Tanglou in particular was too high.
At that time, he issued a decree that no building in Chang'an could be taller than the Daming Palace!
There are policies above and countermeasures below.
Someone built a house, second only to the Tang Tower. Because the Tang Tower is not high compared to the Daming Palace.
As a result, Li Shimin's vision was obscured a lot.
So, he had other ideas in mind.
"Your Majesty, isn't this good?" Empress Changsun could not understand Li Shimin's thoughts.
He and she feel that everything is prosperous now, which is good!
"No, no! Look at that building, it's blocking our view! I can't even see what's behind it! Those are my lands too! But I can't see it!"
this……
If you can’t see it here, you can go to other places to see it! Why does it have to be here?
This made Empress Changsun not sure what to say about him.
Not to mention the newly arrived Duan Lun and Dai Zhou!
At the same time, Duan Lun wondered whether Li Shimin would cause something else.
An ominous premonition arose in their hearts.
as expected.
Li Shimin added: "I want to build a building twice the size of the present one in the Daming Palace. Queen, what do you think?"
Queen Changsun was silent.
How tall would a building that was twice as high as now, 200 meters high, be? How terrifying would it be!
Terrible Li Shimin, what a terrible idea!
"Your Majesty, is such a tall building safe? I am afraid..."
Empress Changsun said that she did not support Li Shimin doing this.
"The current reinforced concrete has proven everything. Look at the Tanglou. If I hadn't stopped it at the time, it might have been built higher! And I also asked Yan Lide about this, and he said there is no problem with it at all!"
Duan Lun can be said to be unspeakably ancient.
These things are all done by the Ministry of Industry.
Yan Lide is currently building the Qingzhou Railway, so he definitely doesn't have much time, and he will definitely handle it himself in the end.
We just did one unpleasant thing, and now Li Shimin wants to do the second one.
It turns out that Li Shimin had asked professional people in advance!
"Your Majesty, I think that the funds of the imperial court have just improved a little now. If we continue to invest heavily, it will not be a good thing for the imperial court!"
The court only had some money, and Li Shimin wanted to squander it.
This is very confusing.
"Queen, you still need to improve your knowledge! Haven't you read the Zhenguan Newspaper?"
"What did your Majesty say?"
"As mentioned above, infrastructure can drive a country's economy! For example, some materials and manpower can be directly driven by the above, and it can also increase the income of some people. In this way, taxes can be increased..."
Obviously, what the Zhenguan Newspaper said was definitely not that simple, but Li Shimin understood it this way.
In any case, Li Shimin approved some of the contents in Zhenguan Newspaper.
On the other hand, this newspaper is affecting Li Shimin's thoughts on governing the country.
Anyone with some knowledge can listen and understand the contents of the Zhenguan newspaper.
Also, during this period of time, Li Shimin saw the rise of many industries from the Zhenguan Newspaper.
Those leaders all read the newspapers and devoted themselves to various walks of life.
The current Zhenguan Newspaper is the weather vane.
Li Shimin also recognized some of these views.
But Li Shimin talked with Empress Changsun, but would not talk to the ministers. After all, face is still important.
When Duan Lun heard this, the expression on his face was bitter.
Dai Zhou just looked at him pitifully.
Of course, I am not doing well either.
Some funds also require his approval.
Li Shimin doesn't care about money and doesn't know the difficulties involved.
Now, because of Li Shimin's idea, the two of them suffered.
Neither of them dared to say no directly.
After all, they still have one thing at hand, and they can't provoke Li Shimin and make him angry.
"Although I say so, but..."
"Queen, I know what you are worried about! Just do what I decide!"
Li Shimin didn't give Queen Changsun any chance.
In the end, she didn't say anything.
Li Shimin turned around, and when he was about to speak, he saw Duan Lun and Dai Zhou.
"You guys are here?!"
When Queen Changsun heard this, she turned around.
"Greetings to Your Majesty, Your Highness the Queen!" The two of them saluted immediately.
Duan Lun added: "We were here just now, but we didn't dare to disturb His Majesty! So we waited here for a while!"
"In that case, what do you think of my decision?"
Duan Lun was speechless.
Is this considered a gift?
If he says his decision is good, then he himself is not good.
Saying that his decision is not good and making him angry will make you even worse.
Dai Zhou also lowered his head. At this time, he could not help Duan Lun.
