Chapter 1,126 Officials who don’t know how to make money are not good officials
Don't look at the history books that praise Li Zhi like a lotus flower, but he is definitely very scheming!
Several brothers fell from power one after another, and the throne finally went to him, who seemed to be the most unlikely. Relying on the Guanlong Group headed by Changsun Wuji, he defeated Wei Wang Li Tai and took the throne. However, he was afraid of the strength of the Guanlong Group and used "
The incident of "deposing the Queen and replacing her with Wu Meiniang" uprooted the Guanlong Group in one fell swoop, and even Changsun Wuji suffered...
After the death of His Majesty Li Er, Li Zhi ascended the throne.
What did he do to his brothers?
"The car service and food are shameful, especially excellent"!
This is also one of the reasons why His Majesty Li Er passed the throne to him, "If Li Tai is made the prince, the prince can be obtained by trickery. If Li Tai is made the prince, both Li Chengqian and Li Zhi will die; if Li Zhi makes the prince, Li Zhi will be the prince."
Tai, Li Chengqian is fine."
And the result?
King Li Tai of Wei died in Yunxiang, King Li Ke of Wu was implicated in Fang Yiai's rebellion and was hanged in the Chang'an Palace. King Li Min of Shu was imprisoned because of Li Ke's mother and brother, was deposed as a commoner, and was exiled to Bazhou. Soon after, he was exiled to Bazhou.
He was renamed King of Fuling and died in exile.
If His Majesty Li Er knew something secretly, he would probably have to cry and live...
How can a city without deep scheming do this?
Are you kidding...
Only if Li Chengqian successfully becomes emperor can the Tang Dynasty ensure a smooth transition of power and prevent the pace of development from being delayed due to internal strife.
Fang Jun can also sit back and relax...
Li Chengqian was cowardly and kind, but he was not stupid. As long as his position as the crown prince was not threatened, he was mentally stable and would not do stupid things. Moreover, all the friends around him were taken by Fang Jun and he dedicated all the benefits of Jiangnan to His Majesty Li Er.
After that, they gradually became distant and would not do things that are below the lower limit of their IQ in a daze.
Fang Jun reminded him several times, and he naturally knew that he was better off than staying still now, so he just stayed there and endured the day. When will his father die, when will he take over...
Shaking his head, Li Chengqian said: "I have asked the East Palace official to make a detailed accounting and have left enough goods for one year. The rest will be sent to you in case of emergency."
Although Fang Jun arrogantly said to Li Ke that he wanted to make money with Li Ke, in Li Chengqian's view, Fang Jun must spend his own money to make up for the rest and rectification of the east and west cities. Although Fang Jun is rich,
But he also had to express his attitude, so he used the belongings of the East Palace to support Fang Jun.
Fang Jun's heart warmed slightly and he said with a smile: "Your Highness's good intentions are appreciated by Wei Chen. But there is no need to worry, Your Highness, Wei Chen has many ways to make money, and the repair and rectification of the east and west cities is of course not a problem."
The three provinces and six ministries as well as the emperor have issued documents, and they can do whatever they want in the east and west cities. How can they not make money?
Li Chengqian said in astonishment: "How to make money?"
Fang Jun said proudly: "Among the necessary qualities for an official, the ability to make money is very important. You have to spend money to do things, whether it is among the people or in the officialdom, otherwise it will not matter even if you have thousands of clever ideas.
What about performance? Everyone can do things, but whether they can make money to do things is the difference between capable officials and mediocre ones. Officials who can't make money will not be good officials."
Li Chengqian: "..."
After all, I am also a prince. Can you stop taking it so naturally that I am making money one bite at a time?
Although he also understands the reason behind this, and he also knows that Fang Jun’s so-called making money is not just putting it in his pocket, but this sounds awkward...
What about the saint’s humble words and great righteousness?
Where is the ethical gentleman like jade?
Doesn’t being an official have to be as honest as water, fair and upright?
Too philistine...
Li Chengqian felt that he was speechless.
Wearing jingle bells, Wu Meiniang walked in with two maids and served fragrant tea.
Li Chengqian did not act like a prince at all, with a kind and warm smile on his white face, he said to Wu Meiniang: "Wu Meiniang is a heroine. Even in the forbidden palace, I heard about Wu Meiniang's majesty and power.
It's really unbelievable. It's really enviable for Erlang to have such a virtuous wife. Gu and Erlang are inseparable, and they can't tell each other apart. If Erlang is inconvenient to come forward if his mother's family needs help in the future, Wu Meiniang can come to look for her.
I will definitely not refuse."
These words came from the prince's mouth, which gave Wu Meiniang a great deal of dignity.
It should be noted that she is just Fang Jun’s concubine!
But Li Chengqian admired this amazing woman who was capable both inside and outside!
She was able to stand up when faced with a crisis at home, and dared to confront the dignified Minister of Etiquette even without her reputation as a woman. The most powerful thing was that she scratched Linghu Defen until her face blossomed, and Linghu Defen had to pay a huge apology...
Looking at Guanzhong, which woman has such ability?
Even Fang Xuanling is now kind and generous to Wu Meiniang, treating her almost like her two daughters-in-law and never treating her as just a concubine.
When a family goes through setbacks, there are many harem women who just cry and go with the flow. How many of them can stand up and deal with it bravely?
What Wu Meiniang has done deserves this respect...
Wu Meiniang smiled lightly, pulled up her skirt and saluted, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness, but how dare you trouble Your Highness about my affairs with my mother's family? I will take care of it myself."
Li Chengqian laughed loudly, and was even more satisfied with Wu Meiniang's appropriate response.
When Wu Meiniang led the maid away, Li Chengqian sighed: "I really envy Erlang. I have such virtuous helpers as Shu'er and Wu Niangzi at home, what more can I ask for?"
Fang Jun's eyelids twitched...
What more can I ask for from my husband?
Brother, you probably don’t know how fucked up these two people are…
A man who passionately pursues love and yearns for freedom, even giving her husband a big cuckold; a woman who doesn’t let men down and vows to become a phoenix riding a dragon, and even conquers all men to become the only female empress in the ages...
That’s me, buddy, wearing a halo and traveling through it, holding the sun and moon in my hands, and stepping on the seven stars with my feet. Let’s try someone else. Can you hold it?
I have to be torn to pieces and maimed by these two bitches...
*****
It’s spring time again.
Scholars from all walks of life gathered in the city of Chang'an, and there was a bustle of carriages and horses. The Chu Guan in Pingkangfang urgently borrowed and purchased famous girls from all over the world, and the business was more than twice as prosperous as usual.
In the elegant room of Zuixian Tower, a group of young people were sitting around, with famous singers singing songs and wine in their red sleeves. The young people had fun and had fun. From time to time, a joke would cause bursts of laughter in the room, and strange hands would make people laugh.
The girl's coquettish voice...
It was noisy for a while, and suddenly someone said: "The business of this Zuixian Building is getting better and better. Even the backyard is full, which is really disappointing. Although this elegant room is exquisite, it is surrounded by familiar people, so it is not fun to have fun.
carefree."
Everyone started laughing.
Naturally, everyone understands the so-called "not having fun".
If you were in the backyard, when you got excited for fun, you would naturally drag the girl in your arms and push her away from the room next door to make clouds and rain and indulge in your bestial desires. However, in this elegant room, there were so many familiar people around you that you would inevitably feel restrained.
Someone laughed and said, "Do you think you are the second room mate? When people come, even if the Zuixian Tower is full, they will have to kick out a group of people to make room for them."
The man who spoke was in his twenties, with a fair face, handsome face, and a lively look.
As soon as the words came out, the room suddenly became silent.
The man before had a sullen face and said displeasedly: "Yu Lizheng, why did you bring him up? It's just a waste of interest!"
This man has a sharp face and a pale complexion. He is Kong Zhixuan, the son of Kong Yingda...
Yu Lizheng was the son of Yu Zhining, and he had always been on good terms with Kong Zhixuan. Hearing this, he laughed and said, "Brother, why are you so prejudiced against Fang Er? I think I am also curious. Your Majesty, Lord Zhongda, has a close relationship with Fang Er. We have just met each other, why are you so unkind to Fang Er, brother?"
Kong Zhixuan grunted angrily and glared at Yu Lizheng, "You don't want to open any pot, right?"
Kong Zhixuan didn't have a good impression of Fang Jun at first, but that guy teased him more than once. As Fang Jun's relationship with his father became increasingly close, he, who was considered promising in his father's eyes, had frequent encounters with him. was reprimanded, and Fang Jun became what his father called "other people's children"...
Mentioning Fang Jun, Kong Zhixuan became angry.
He did not answer Yu Lizheng, but glanced sideways at the two young men beside him, and said in a strange tone: "We don't want to see him here much more than I do, right, senior high school brother, Linghu brother?"
