Chapter 476: Crisis

The fish seller found out that it was the King of Shu who was buying the fish, so how could he accept the money?

However, as a military governor, Li Min naturally would not ask for things from the people in vain, so he forced Xiao Liuzi to give him a thousand coins.

Next, Li Min took the fish all the way to Baihuatan.

The actions of King Shu Li Min attracted countless passers-by, and they all followed King Shu to Baihua Pond.

After arriving at Baihuatan, the King of Shu untied the grass rope holding the gills of the crucian carp and put the crucian carp into the water of Baihuatan.

Only then did these pedestrians suddenly realize.

It turns out that the King of Shu bought this crucian carp for release.

However, this crucian carp has been out of water for such a long time. Even if it is released, will it still survive?

Suddenly, countless pairs of eyes stared closely at the crucian carp released by King Shu.

Then, a scene that surprised them appeared.

They actually felt that the crucian carp released by King Shu seemed to have grown in size when it entered the water.

The red color on my body is also deeper and more intense.

It was originally just a red-tailed crucian carp, but now it seems to be less than half red.

This discovery made them doubt their own eyes, and they felt that they must be hallucinating.

The next moment, after entering the water, the crucian carp tilted its body first, and its belly turned half over. It was obvious that it would not live long.

But in just a moment, the crucian carp regained its vitality and became cheerful.

The fish became happier as it swam, but it was always around Li Min and refused to leave.

Li Min smiled slightly and said to it: "Go!"

The fish nodded to Li Min three times in the water, then swam toward the middle of the pool and quickly disappeared.

This scene made the pedestrians who followed us marvel and exclaim that the trip was worth it.

Unexpectedly, this crucian carp is so spiritual and knows how to be grateful.



After returning, Li Min ordered Xia Yuntian, the editor-in-chief of Yizhou Monthly, to start writing an article focusing on Doudou and Xiaocai.

In Xia Yuntian's writings, Dou Dou has simply become a divine dog descended from the gods.

Xiaocai also became a magical bird.

After this publicity, both Doudou and Xiaocai became famous.

Many tourists come here because of these two pets and go to great lengths.

After meeting Doudou and Xiaocai, they discovered that what was reported in the Yizhou Monthly News was actually true.

These two pets are really amazing.

Unknowingly, the cold current hit, the north wind blew, and the weather gradually became colder.

The weather has just entered November, and there is already a thick layer of ice on the water.

This year's summer is very hot and winter is extremely cold.

This kind of weather made Li Shimin deeply worried.

We have just entered November, and the weather is already so cold. Once we enter the twelfth lunar month, how cold will it get?

In such cold weather, I don't know how many people will freeze to death.

The weather is cold, so you need to wear more clothes.

Li Shimin ordered people to go to the street to inquire about the price of cloth.

The people's food harvest this year is quite good, and they can afford to buy more clothes. I hope not too many people will freeze to death this year.

Li Shimin was shocked by the news that Lux came back from.

Now the price of a piece of raw silk has actually reached 4,700 wen.

The price of linen cloth has reached 4,000 Wen per piece, while the price of fine cotton silk has reached 18,800 Wen per piece, and the price of cheesecloth has reached 4,440 Wen per piece.

This price is ten times higher than the normal price!

Even though those common people received an extra three to five dou per mu of land, they simply couldn't afford it at such a price!

And because they cannot afford clothes, many poor people have no choice but to freeze to death.

And all of this must have been done behind the scenes by the noble family.

These people from aristocratic families only care about their own interests and don't care about the life and death of the people at all. They really deserve to be killed!

But faced with this situation, Li Shimin had no better way.

This is the market price, and Li Shimin cannot use his status as emperor to forcefully suppress it, otherwise everything will really go wrong.

However, should we just let the price of cloth be so high and let those poor people freeze to death like this?

As a wise king, how could Li Shimin tolerate such a thing?

So Li Shimin called in Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji, Gao Shilian and other civil servants to discuss countermeasures.

But faced with this problem, all the ministers were helpless.

Fang Xuanling couldn't help but said angrily: "This is all done by the aristocratic family behind the scenes. The people of these aristocratic families really deserve to be killed! They don't care about the life and death of the people at all. In their eyes, those who have no family and no country deserve to die!"

Because of the existence of aristocratic families such as Wu Xing and Qi Wang, they are holding back many things.

After all, they control at least 70% of Datang's business.

As long as they want to cause trouble, it would be too easy.

Therefore, many civil servants also deeply hate and despise these aristocratic families, but there is nothing they can do about them.

At this time, Changsun Wuji said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, I recommend someone who may be able to solve this problem."

Li Shimin couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Auxiliary engine, tell me quickly, who can solve this problem?"

Changsun Wuji couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, King of Shu! I have discovered that there is no problem in this world that King Shu cannot solve!"

After hearing Changsun Wuji's words, Li Shimin was silent for a moment and couldn't help but said: "Okay, then I will summon the King of Shu to see him tomorrow."

Although the King of Shu is far away in Yizhou, thousands of miles away, with the train, a messenger can be sent to tell the King of Shu on the first day, and the King of Shu can come to Chang'an on the second day.

Once you have the train, you will have close friends across the sea, as if you are next to each other across the world.

On the same day, Li Min received the order from the messenger.

At the same time, Li Min also learned through dream weaving that all this was the fault of Changsun Wuji, an old yinbi.

Although he could indeed resolve this problem, Changsun Lao Yinbi didn't know much about it.

Chang Sun and Lao Yinbi must have bad intentions when recommending him.

Because this matter, no matter whether it can be done or not, is a thankless thing.

If he couldn't do it, Changsun Laoyinbi would definitely say that he didn't try his best and didn't care about the lives of the people.

And if he can do it, then the five surnames and Qi Wang will definitely hate him even more.

Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, Li Min decided that this time he must draw Sun Laoyinbi into trouble.

Since you want to frame me, you must be prepared to be dragged into the water.

The next day, Li Min got on the train and arrived in Chang'an half a day later.

Soon, Li Min entered the palace to meet the saint.

After meeting, Li Shimin couldn't help but ask Li Min: "Min'er, the price of cloth on the market is so high now that ordinary people can't afford it. This winter seems to be particularly cold, and Duke Zhao recommended you to me. I don't know.

Do you have any good ideas?"
