Finally, as the eunuchs opened the palace door, officials poured into the hall one after another.
Not long after the meeting, Li Shimin, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, walked quickly, and the court meeting finally entered a normal rhythm.
Li Shimin glanced at the ministers and saw the old man Cheng Yaojin over there, and Fang Xuanling, who had a calm expression.
As well as the shareholders of Han and Tang Commercial Banks who looked a little uneasy, the corners of Li Shimin's mouth inadvertently raised slightly, then turned back.
The Embroidered Clothes Envoy has already conveyed the news, and these officials from aristocratic families are afraid that they will launch an attack today.
Naturally, it is still the same old routine, with the censors firing first to test the situation, and then the cunning and cunning ministers will appear.
Li Shimin has become accustomed to this kind of approach, but he has to admit that this routine is indeed very good.
However, I will not follow their routine today. Thinking of this, Li Shimin felt more and more relaxed. After sitting down.
The eunuch on the side brought the brewed tea over, and smelling the aroma of the tea, Li Shimin suddenly became energetic.
This tea was naturally from Luzhou, but Li Shimin remembered that the medicinal pillows donated by Cheng Sanlang had tea stems inside.
When I sleep, I even feel comfortable. In the past, due to the hard work of government affairs, I would easily find myself tossing and turning even though I was very tired, making it difficult to fall asleep.
But after I got the medicinal pillow donated by this guy, I could easily close my eyes after smelling the elegant fragrance.
It's usually dawn when I open my eyes, and it's rare that I'm haunted by dreams.
The quality of sleep is better, and the energy level is naturally better. Anyway, Li Shimin feels more and more that he has been very energetic in the past two years.
After a short meeting, the censor naturally jumped out first, saluted the emperor, and began to make impassioned speeches.
The impeachment of the Han and Tang Dynasty merchant houses for bullying and dominating the market made it difficult for many merchants to continue their operations and made the merchant market full of complaints.
As a censor, it is natural that he has the responsibility to listen to the voices of the people, stand up bravely, and launch an attack on giant commercial groups like the Han and Tang Dynasties.
One, two, several censors popped up in succession, and even some officials began to leave.
I had a conversation with those censors and took the opportunity to put some facts in front of people.
Cheng Yaojin sneered again and again when he heard this, and looked towards His Majesty frequently. However, he saw His Majesty sitting behind the imperial desk, sipping tea soup, and looking like he was ignoring him.
#####
This made Lao Cheng feel a little anxious, Your Majesty, what exactly do you want to do? Your Majesty has already hinted that he already has a complete plan for this matter.
Cheng Yaojin and Fang Xuanling, who have entered the palace again and want to persuade His Majesty to accept the 10% share, just go back home and feel at ease, there will be no problems.
But the current situation made Cheng Yaojin start to mutter, "What kind of devil is your Majesty doing?" There was no movement for a long time.
The fathers of Han and Tang Dynasty merchant shareholders on the side all winked at Cheng Yaojin, making Cheng Yaojin's scalp numb.
Damn it, after so many years of living, this is the first time that I have been constantly ignored by so many big men.
Just when the gang was chattering and the old brothers were winking at each other.
Some censors have already begun to beat their chests and stamp their feet, and they are heartbroken and shouting with red faces and thick necks.
It seems that the Han and Tang Dynasty trading houses are simply an example of black-hearted merchants in the world. If they exist for one more day, they will be an insult to the people of the world and to officials like them who share the worries of the country and the people.
At this moment, Cheng Yaojin couldn't hold himself any longer and walked off with a face on his face.
"What do I mean by you guys? My son only does some small business, how come he bullies and dominates the market?"
"Okay, Cheng Qing, please step aside first." Li Shimin saw Cheng Yaojin starting to roll up his sleeves and reacted subconsciously.
We must not let this old guy become the protagonist today. After all, in this matter, the aristocratic families behind the group of subordinates must understand who the real mastermind behind the Han and Tang Dynasty trading houses is.
Cheng Yaojingang jumped out, and before he could use his provocation skills, he heard His Majesty's shout, and couldn't help but turn his head to look over in confusion.
Seeing the determined and serious look in His Majesty's eyes, Cheng Yaojin could only return to his duties angrily.
The ministers and ministers who were already standing in the palace and giving a bitter apology all looked at His Majesty in astonishment. Why was there something wrong with today's routine?
Whenever His Majesty encounters something he doesn't like, he usually lets that scoundrel Cheng Yaojin jump out and cause trouble.
Then His Majesty took the opportunity to get angry and run away, but today it seemed a little different.
The ministers and ministers, who were already foaming at the mouth, began to communicate quickly with each other, but everyone was a little at a loss. After all, the routine was wrong.
#####
Li Shimin's expression looked very complicated and entangled, and he was silent for almost ten breaths before he spoke with a look of embarrassment on his face.
"My dear friends, I...sigh...I will send the Embroidered Clothes Envoy to investigate this matter thoroughly."
As soon as they heard that His Majesty was going to send out embroiderers instead of following the normal procedures, everyone was instantly confused.
What's going on? Are those guys from the embroidery team going to stretch out their claws?
Whether it was those ministers from aristocratic families or other ministers, their expressions changed one after another.
Wei Zheng stepped out from the crowd with an unhappy face. "Your Majesty..."
"That's enough! This matter involves the dignity of the royal family. You don't need to say anything more." After Li Shimin said this, he waved his hand to Wei Zheng helplessly.
Wei Zheng looked at His Majesty blankly. This matter involved the royal family, and His Majesty's expression looked so strange. Could there be some unspeakable secret going on here?
Although Wei Zheng often criticizes His Majesty, it does not mean that he does so without purpose and reason, and he is also a smart man.
After hearing that His Majesty was about to say something but hesitated, as if he had something to hide, he politely bowed out and decided to wait until the court was over before asking His Majesty what was going on.
At this moment, many of the ministers' eyes were already rolling, and they began to guess the reason why His Majesty was in such a difficult situation.
Yes, so far, except for the limited shareholders of the Han and Tang Commercial Banks, others only thought that only a member of the royal family, King Wu Li Ke, had a stake in the Han and Tang Commercial Banks.
After all, this prodigal prince and Cheng Sanlang have always been together, so it would be unjustifiable to say that he was not involved.
However, even if Li Ke was a prince, there was no need to put His Majesty in such a difficult situation, and he also took out the embroidered clothes to scare the whole court and civil and military officials.
Is it possible that... it has something to do with that person? A certain minister with an agile mind subconsciously looked towards the uncle.
Changsun Wuji, who had been silent all the time, watching his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, had no idea at all.
But as more and more suspicious eyes fell on him, Changsun Wuji immediately became angry. It's none of my business, what do you guys mean?
