"Will it succeed?"

"Give your best to fate."

In the open pavilion, Xue Chongxiu and Zhang Changzong sat side by side, with a small table separated by a few dishes of food on the table, and Baoning was writing his homework. Zhang Changzong held his fat son in his arms and talked to his wife.

Xue Chongxiu raised her eyebrows: "When you fooled my mother, you didn't say that."

Zhang Changzong laughed and said, "When you fool people, of course you have to be confident, otherwise how can you fool people to believe it? Don't you know? Those who deceive the old man and the old lady who buy health products will call her parents directly, what am I going to do?"

Xue Chongxiu smiled softly and said, "I think I'm 80% sure."

“So optimistic?”

Zhang Changzong turned his head and looked at the child's mother. Xue Chongxiu asked calmly: "How can there be an emperor in the world who is more weak than the prince?"

Zhang Changzong thought for a while and shook his head: "No."

Xue Chongxiu asked again: "My uncle is obviously a noble prince and has ascended the throne, but he has also experienced a life of inability to protect the court. He has to worry about his life even if he offends a palace maid. He quietly sits firmly in the position of Prime Minister of Anguo under the fear of Zhongzong. If such a person has something to do...will he be willing to abdicate?"

Zhang Changzong slapped him, lowered his head and kissed his fat son's round and dumb face, and smiled: "I don't think I'm willing to accept it, but considering the nature of His Majesty to avoid misfortune and the first-class life-saving skills, I'm afraid that this Majesty will not be enough to make His Majesty firmly determined, so I added some weight to my mother-in-law."

Xue Chongxiu looked at him meaningfully, smiled and nodded, took his son, and urged Zhang Changzong to check his daughter's homework. In the palace—

"The prosperous Tang Dynasty?"

Li Dan paused and smiled bitterly: "Sister, don't mess with Brother Yu, just look at the current situation in the court, not to mention the prosperous era, as long as you can safely pass on the foundation of your ancestors, Brother Yu will be satisfied."

Princess Taiping's voice was slightly higher: "Take it seriously? The emperor's brother did not have the intention to make achievements?"

Li Dan smiled bitterly again, but didn't say anything. Princess Taiping wiped her face, wiped off the tears on her face, took out a document from her wide sleeve, and handed it over: "Please read the emperor! If the emperor still thinks like this after reading this Chen, then pretend that my sister has never been here, and the sister will move to Luoyang tomorrow!"

Li Dan was stunned and looked at Princess Taiping, and hesitated to take the letter presented by Princess Taiping. He didn't rush to see it. He looked at Princess Taiping first, and then lowered his head to open it.

He looked at it twice, exclaimed in surprise, and his face became a little solemn. He looked at it seriously. After reading it once, he didn't rush to express anything. He closed his eyes and looked down again. Then, he put the Chen Fang on the desk and said, "Although this Chen was brought in the name of A Mei, I think it was written by Zhang Lang?"

Seeing through, Princess Taiping was not ashamed, and nodded gloriously: "That's right. This is Liulang's hard work over the years. He gave me all the promises for the sake of his sister. This kind of intention, brother, if you are addicted, what do you think?"

Li Dan was silent for a moment and said, "A sister has a good daughter, so she can find such a good son-in-law."

Princess Taiping raised her head and laughed loudly, and she agreed: "What the emperor said is, the ministers think so too."

Li Dan smiled slightly, but he didn't think Taiping was so rude and offensive. He patted Tie Chen and asked again: "The tax revenue in the future is really as Tiao Chen said, can it be as rich as Tiao Chen said?"

Princess Taiping replied: "Being favored is like Anle. Changning, and building a garden requires the support of the emperor's inner treasury. In recent years, my sister has never reached out to the inner treasury, nor has she ever sold official positions or titles, nor has the so-called big merchants passed by the mansion. The emperor's brother thought that where did the expenses of my sister come from? They all came from here!"

Li Dan thought about Princess Taiping’s spending over the years and wanted to help him and the exiled emperor in the palace, and nodded suddenly: “So that’s it.”

Princess Taiping said: "When the emperor ascended the throne, there are a few court officials who understand the situation of the emperor's sisters, but the ministers know in their hearts that the emperor's sisters have been in the past year. The inner treasury and the national treasury are not abundant. As long as Liulang's proposal is adopted, the ship department is set up in Guangzhou, and then the navy is established to ensure the safety of the merchant ships on the sea. Why worry about the national treasury if the national treasury is not abundant? If you have money in your hands, you will not panic. What will the emperor want to do in the future? My ministers and Liulang should do their best to assist you."

Li Dan nodded, but seemed to have doubts: "Let Dalang be the Southeast Strategic Inspector and the Navy..."

Princess Taiping said: "Brother, how about the limit of three years?"

Three years is enough to establish a ship department with a perfect system; three years, the situation in the court must have become clear; three years is not only the time given to herself by Zhang Changzong, but also the time for Princess Taiping. If it is still impossible to do it in three years, Princess Taiping promised Zhang Changzong that she would withdraw from the court and enjoy the countryside.

Li Dan did not immediately express his opinion, lowering his eyes and silently, as if he was pondering. Princess Taiping knew that the matter was important and could not be anxious, so she suppressed her temper and waited.

Fortunately, Li Dan did not ask her to wait any longer and said, "My sister can go back to the house first and order people to prepare a banquet to celebrate here."

Princess Taiping's eyes showed ecstasy, and all the deep and coldness disappeared. She asked excitedly: "The emperor's meaning is..."

Li Dan smiled at her. His smile was no different from the past, and his tone was no different: "My sister has made contributions to the country and me. She has given suggestions and suggestions to the country and the people, and deserves rewards."

Princess Taiping's heart was only halfway down, she bowed and said respectfully: "Thank you, Lord, I am ashamed of my elders."

Li Dan waved his hand with a smile, just like the generous brother in the past, without the joy and excitement after the general situation. With this kind of tolerance, Princess Taiping felt that she was not as good as the one who could survive the queen and the seventh brother. In the past, she was too clumsy. If it weren't for Liulang's mention, she wouldn't understand the emperor until her death. It can be seen that she used to be smart and actually was a fool.

The first time, Princess Taiping couldn't help but feel a little doubtful and unconfident about herself. For the first time, she was willing to really think about it, so she was not happy to be able to take up the position of Kuang Zheng in less than two days. The reaction was quite calm, which made Li Dan look at her with admiration. She secretly thought that although Ah Mei likes power, it was not entirely for power. It turned out that the court officials and Saburo were too forced.

The next day, not the day of the court meeting, Li Dan summoned important officials of the court to discuss matters in the palace, and the princess and Princess Taiping were all present. Li Dan first took out the matter of setting up a ship department to increase the commercial tax on sea and ships to enrich the national treasury.

In the early days of the Zhongzong Dynasty, the inner treasury was taken to Anle by Zhongzong. The two naughty children in Changning were thrifted. Zhongzong had no money to spend it, so he instigated the palace concubines and the states to sell official positions and titles, and sold thousands of slanted officials in one go, so the palace could only support it. Later, when Zhongzong died, Empress Wei regent, he became even more arrogant and extravagant and took the national treasury.
