Chapter 2255: Father-in-law, you don’t want to use Luoyang to cause trouble, do you? (Please subscribe and vote)

Li Shimin turned his head and saw Cheng Sanlang's wretched appearance, and twisted his neck uncomfortably.

"Just talk, why are you so sneaky?"

"My father-in-law, this statement can only come out of my son-in-law's mouth and into my father-in-law's ears to prevent this plan from being leaked in advance..."

After sizing up this virtuous son-in-law with all his heart and soul, Li Shimin groaned and listened attentively.

"My son-in-law's strategy is very simple, which is to create a special zone. He just asks his father-in-law to find a confidant and choose a place or even a state or county to try it out."

"Special Zone?" Li Shimin couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and his eyes fell on his beloved son-in-law. This kid was very smart.

"Come on, come on, please talk to me carefully..." Li Shimin dragged Cheng Sanlang back to the desk with his big hand.

The father-in-law and son-in-law sat across the case, and Li Shimin even took the initiative to pour tea for his beloved son-in-law, who had just been fined half a year's salary.

His movements and demeanor were very kind and warm, as if the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty who had just been fined half a year's salary was someone else, not him.

Li Shimin also did not forget to give Zhao Kun a look. Although Zhao Kun was not his pillow, the monarch and his minister had worked together for many years and did not dare to say that they were heart to heart. At least they could understand each other through a look.

Zhao Kun bowed to Li Shimin with understanding and hurried away, stood outside the hall and whispered a few instructions.

Soon, the atmosphere outside the hall became solemn, and the imperial guards began to patrol around the Wencheng Hall with swords drawn horizontally at their waists, strictly prohibiting any other people from approaching.

Cheng Chubi didn't bother to argue with this capricious elder who had breasts... ahem, and turned his face like a book. He took a sip of tea and began to analyze it in a low voice.

"The so-called special zone is naturally a small area set aside within the territory of our Datang Empire. It adopts a system that is very different from the current one..."

#####

Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty pursed his lips tightly and said nothing. He only nodded slightly from time to time to encourage Cheng Sanlang to continue speaking.

Watching Cheng Sanlang talking confidently in front of him, listening to him explain the structure and characteristics of the special zone in a clear and logical manner.

It really made Li Shimin feel that there was a halo around this kid, and he seemed to be opening a door for himself.

Behind the door, there was a completely different world. Then he stood at the door and smiled kindly and kindly towards himself.

Tell yourself with approving eyes and encouraging tone how you can walk in calmly.

"..." If it weren't for being scratched by Cheng Sanlang's words, Li Shimin would have really wanted to kick him.

"I was deeply touched by the words of my wise son-in-law today and benefited a lot from them."

"Well, I have an idea now. Come, you and I will discuss it in detail."

"It just so happens that you, my dear son-in-law, have made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty on that plateau, opening up new territories and expanding our territory."

"Now, there is a state on the plateau. How about I use that state as my special zone in the Tang Dynasty?"

Seeing his father-in-law talking nonsense in front of him with beaming eyes, Cheng Chubi wished he could grab the tea on the table and throw it to wake up the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin was proudly and secretly applauding his idea. When he glanced out of the corner of his eye, he saw Cheng Sanlang's disgusted expression, and he suddenly became angry.

"Hey, what's your expression like? Is it possible that what I said was inappropriate?"

"My father-in-law...it's not that my son-in-law intends to dampen your enthusiasm, but that place has just come into my hands, the Tang Dynasty."

"It is also far away from the center of the Tang Dynasty, and communication is inconvenient. Moreover, the people there are mostly Tubo, Zhao, Qiang and other ethnic groups, and there are few Han people."

"Now that Ren Yaxiang and others are governing and commanding the army there, they are careful every step they take, for fear of making a mistake."

"More importantly, there is no powerful family there, and we are discussing the establishment of a special zone just to see the effect..."

After hearing this, Li Shimin blushed, wiped his face, and quickly drank some tea to cool down.

"Well, okay, my dear son-in-law, you don't have to say it anymore. I didn't think it through properly."

After calming down, Li Shimin looked at Cheng Sanlang who was also drinking tea happily, and suddenly an idea came to him.

"In fact, the most suitable official to run this special zone is a virtuous son-in-law."

Cheng Chubi couldn't help but his face changed, and he said in disbelief.

"My father-in-law, you are not thinking of causing trouble with Luoyang, which is about to become my imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty, are you?"

These words made Li Shimin feel confused. Why, I said you were making trouble, so you just invented the word "making trouble" to target me, right?

That's all. Seeing that this guy had just been fined half a year's salary and was feeling very unhappy, I didn't bother to provoke him.

"What do you mean by making trouble? You kid, don't talk nonsense. What I mean is that the government and the people receive food from the same people, and you are the one who tinkered with it."

"So, in my opinion, among all the talents of the Tang Dynasty, no one knows better than you how to divide the land into a farm, and how to pay for the government and the people together."

I saw His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty raising his fingers while speaking and gesticulating.

Cheng Chubi was secretly proud. Although His Majesty often did not talk about military ethics, his comments on him today were still quite pertinent.

"Well... you just have to work hard in Luoyang Ling's position. Later, our son-in-law will discuss the two strategies carefully so that we can find out the deficiencies and make up for them."

"Also, I might as well give you a sneak peek today. It won't take long for me to finalize the decision to make Luoyang the capital."

"As for you, my virtuous son-in-law, you must not move lightly now. When everything is settled in Luoyang, at that time, you, my virtuous son-in-law, will be needed to drive ahead for me."

"My father-in-law, please be at ease. My son-in-law will definitely live up to my father-in-law's trust."

#####

Cheng Chubi's timely treatment, coupled with the availability of nitroglycerin tablets and the needle-piercing first aid technique, arranged a lot of precautions for Li Shimin.

Moreover, he patted his chest and guaranteed that as long as his father-in-law could strictly follow the meal, work and rest schedule, and exercise plan he had given.

I dare not say that I will live to be a centenarian, but if I continue to be active for another thirty years, there should be no problem.

As for the case of Luoyang County Lord Bo Zhengguang's death in prison, first of all, many Dali Temple officials were implicated.

Even Pei Xuanji, the Minister of Dali Temple, was stripped of his post as Minister of Dali Temple because of this, and all the people who had gone in and out of the Dali Temple prison the night before were found out.

It was immediately discovered that a jailer had absconded. Faced with the wrath of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, various departments did not dare to slack off.

Within two days, the jailer arrested him from an abandoned house in Luonan.
