Two or two people are not stupid. After leaving, we discussed for a while and then thought about Zao Ao before. After estimating, after estimating a rough estimate, Wei Yuanzhong sighed: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty

Your Majesty, I didn't dare to say it.

The next day, it was reported that Old Wei was sick for several days and did not get up. Then Old Wei submitted a letter saying that I am old and nearly 70 years old. I really want to serve Your Majesty, but I am in poor health. Therefore, I beg Your Majesty to allow me to retire.

To be honest, Li Xian was really reluctant to let it go. Among all the ministers, especially in Wu Zetian's later years, Old Wei was the unswerving Crown Prince's Sect, which is his minister. He issued an edict to disagree and asked the imperial physician to visit the Wei Mansion.

The imperial doctor came, and Lao Wei was lying on the bed and couldn't get up. After the imperial doctor finished reading, he was very puzzled. He was in good health. Why couldn't Lao Wei even get up? Can he get up? Seeing Zhang Shuzhi? He didn't say that he died tragically, and his family was injured. We are all old, so there is a good deal to fight for.

After the imperial doctor returned, he had to report that he was not as ill as a ignorant as a slut, but was old and weak.

As soon as he reported, Old Wei reported another report that he was old and could not serve Your Majesty. He was even more afraid of his duties. Therefore, he asked Your Excellency to allow me to retire, and to make a good story of the friendship between the king and the minister. The statement was very sad. Because Wang Hua sent a quick letter from Lingnan, he repeatedly asked him to retire immediately, even if he was kneeling and crawling.

In fact, Wang Hua had long learned through the line that with Ji Chuna and Zong Jinqing, Zhou Yong, who was afraid that Wang Hua would cause trouble in Lingnan, was immediately transferred back to the capital and was reused. However, the remnants left by Wu Sansi's official position rose again, but this time the loyalty object became Wei.

The most powerful person who dealt with Wu Sansi was the first to be Lao Wei, the second to be the Song Dynasty, and the third to be himself. He was in Lingnan and was beyond his reach. Therefore, he focused on Lao Wei. However, the food price was not stable at that time and he did not dare to carry this burden, so he endured it.

Wang Hua also needed Lao Wei to speak justice. Otherwise, the court would not release grain. So he did not remind them. Now that the grain prices have stabilized, Li Hong also told Li Xian that the third batch of grain will arrive in spring. Without the burden, after New Year's Day, Zong Chuke and others will definitely take action.

Li Xian still refused, but at this time, Zong Chuke asked the censor Zhongcheng Yao Tingyun to say in the morning court: "I heard rumors in the market that the crown prince was saved by Wei Xianggong and others. Otherwise, others would not be able to rescue the crown prince from the siege of thousands of troops. Moreover, I have always been puzzled. When the king gathered the heroes of the country, and when he rebelled, Taizong ignored the ministers' pleading and cried out to death. Later, the love of the house, Xue Wanche was the son-in-law, and the King of Qi was considered a rebellion. Although he was a Yi relative, he all followed the national law. Yuan Zhong's achievements were not as good as that of the king, and he was not a relative of the state. His son participated in the rebellion of the crown prince, and his intention was clear. However, there were cliques who spoke to rescue him to confuse the saints. Your Majesty was kind and kind, and he wanted to cover up his mistakes. But the crown prince has no whereabouts so far, and the rumors among the people are not groundless. The reason why I rebelled against the scales and confessed to the saints was because it was related to Zongshen. Please ask Your Majesty to imprison Yuanzhong and ask the whereabouts of the crown prince.

Li Xian was a little moved, and Li Chongjun didn't know his life or death, which made him feel anxious, but he still said: "The couplet has its own qualities. Yao Qing, don't mention this matter again."

After hearing this, Wei Yuanzhong was very scared and immediately gave a statement, saying that his rebellious son was ungrateful and that he was also the commander of the crown prince to coerce. At that time, many people in Luoyang saw it with their own eyes. However, I was not good at discipline, so I asked Your Majesty to be magnanimous. In addition, I asked Your Majesty to ask me to be kind to seek my whole body.

Li Xian ordered someone to reply, saying that Wei Qing was relieved, Lian would not believe in slander.

Old Wei became even more anxious. If you say don’t worry, I’m not at ease. These people don’t want to die until I die. Isn’t it just that I have an official position? If you don’t want the official position, you will be safe.

The fourth memorial was written immediately.

But Li Xian just disagreed, but seeing that Li Xian refused to let him go, Yuan Shouyi submitted another impeachment: "Zhongjun is your majesty's parent-child, and he is still Zhaoxian. Yuan Zhong is not a honor or a relative, so why do you miss the punishment?"

The letter was not reported, and the empress dowager was in Sanyang Palace. Qiu Renjie asked His Majesty to supervise the country, but Yuan Zhong secretly reported that it was not possible. This was because Yuan Zhonghuai had been against the enemy for a long time, so please punish him strictly.

When Old Wei heard this, he became anxious and thought to himself. The emperor. Didn’t these people just see that I have some power in my hands? You don’t let go at first? So he wrote a letter saying that I have been in power for a long time, but although I have not made great achievements, I was lucky to be loyal to the emperor and the country, and I just gave birth to a rebellious son who did not know how to be ungrateful. When the prince rebelled, he did not know how to advance or retreat, and surrounded him and looked at him. I was full of regret, so I begged Your Majesty to allow me to make up for my merits and make me die, and I would be able to live in my later years.

There was no sound of explanation. But the memorial was even more sad.

Li Xian suddenly realized something and said to Yang Zaisi: "The thing about Yuan Shouyi's poison is true. Think about it with a couplet. The ministers must be united in one's mind. How can the lord have a minor illness and ask the prince to governor? This is a private grace of Renjie, and he has not seen Yuan Zhong lose his mistake. Shuyi is to use the previous incident to trap Yuan Zhong.

Yuan Shouyi was so scared that he didn't dare to say anything.

But Yuan Shouyi stopped and Zong Chuke asked Ran Zuyong to report that Yuan Zhongzi's rebellion was unintentional and a crime of rebellion. The crime was for the clan and nine clans. Your Majesty loved Yuan Zhong and also had to report to the public to enforce the law. Otherwise, more people in the world would not be afraid of the prince's laws and would make changes at any time. Moreover, the whereabouts of the prince are still unknown. The first thing to do is to imprison Wei Yuanzhong and ask about the whereabouts of the prince.

Yang Zaisi and Li Qiao echoed at the same time.

When Li Chongjun was mentioned, Li Xian was moved again. Fortunately, Wei Yuanzhong resigned for five copies, otherwise Wei Yuanzhong would have been imprisoned. So he demoted Lao Wei to Sima of Quzhou.

Wei Yuanzhong became even more anxious when he heard this. God knew that Zhang Jianzhi died of illness or someone else on the road. Can he still come back alive after this demotion? So he wrote a letter saying that I am so sick that I can't even walk on the road. I beg Your Majesty to let me retire, but Your Majesty refused. Now let me go to Quzhou, with this body, how can I reach Dalichangdao? It's better for Your Majesty to die, so as to avoid dying from illness on the road. If Your Majesty seeks complete merits and does not have an imperial edict, as long as Your Majesty agrees. I commit suicide in the palace. Some people say that I have the intention to rebel, but I was demoted to Gaoyao as the Empress Dowager in the past. Why? Or Your Majesty may be considering this kind of affection and allow me to die in the capital safely.

After seeing this, Li Xian felt a little sad again, and thought of all the things Wei Yuanzhong had in the past. Finally, he agreed to Wei Yuanzhong's retirement.

Wei Yuanzhong retired, and Zong Chuke and others rested. Old Wei was so scared that he was sweating in a cold sweat and thought to himself that it was dangerous. If Wang Hua hadn't reminded Xiao Xiao this time, he might not know how to die and would have suffered a prison disaster.

Seeing that Old Wei was like this, Comrade Song was also anxious. Therefore, he mentioned Qinzhou intentionally or unintentionally in the morning court. Then he said: "I wonder if Your Majesty, after the two repairs are completed in the future, will the governor of the King be recalled?

"Of course Li Xian is incredible. Could it be that Wang Hua is the governor of Qinzhou for the rest of his life?

"Your Majesty, who is going to take over the affairs of Qinzhou?"

Li Xian was confused. Although Wang Hua had just finished his old mouth and Yang...8 Yushu's unique body clam!", the two were not repaired. It was still very early to recall, so how could he know how to take over the office.

"Your Majesty, if there is no suitable person, I will be willing to go."

Huh? Why has Lingnan become a popular commodity? Li Xian said: "Shilarious Minister Song, it's still early to leave Wang Qing. I'll make up for this matter later."

Da Song didn't say anything anymore, turned his head to look at some people, which meant that I was planning to leave the capital, so don't cause trouble for me.

But some people go against the current.

After Zhou Yong came back, he did not dare to let him hold a higher official position, but just supervising the censor. But no one dared to underestimate him. Killing the Five Kings was nothing. This was obviously protected by Wei's family, and the one who dared to find this was uncomfortable.

On the day he came back from the court, two people on the way were holding a jar in their hands, and were in a hurry. When they saw his carriage coming, they couldn't dodge the small jar and fell down, which shocked the horse. Zhou Yi's coachman was angry and whipped a horse whip on a man.

But these two people were dissatisfied and confronted each other.

As a result, Zhou Yi's servant punched and kicked him, and was knocked to the ground in a while, without knowing the situation.

The two ordinary people collided with Zhou Yong, and it would be useless to fight. Zhou Yong did not take it seriously and returned to the mansion.

But the next day, Li Hong held his daughter and asked the servants of the Wang family to carry the two great men to the palace. Without the emperor's order, she could not enter the palace. But she had no intention of entering. She shouted loudly in front of the palace: "When will Zhou Yi be sentenced to death, Ji Chune and Zong Jinqing will serve as county magistrates in Lingshan, Anjing, and when will the servants return to Chang'an?"

As the county magistrate of Lingshan, Anjing. That is called being a position, it is a demotion, and it happens to be a subordinate of Wang Hua. It would be better to let them die earlier. But what does it have to do with her returning to Chang'an?

Everyone was wondering. I didn’t know whether to report to Li Xian. When Li Hong got on the carriage and left Chang'an.

Finally, Li Xian and Wei were a little displeased when they heard this. Is this obviously a threat? But because of Wang Hua's contribution, he tolerated and did not care.

The next morning, many ministers impeached the matter. Zhang Shuo was a little angry, but when they finished speaking, they shouted: "Everyone, look behind your bodies. Is there any place where Wang Hua can catch the handle?"

With just a sound, most of the ministers shrank in fear, and even Zong Chuke didn't say anything.

Zhou Yong was also scared. This time, Wang Hua returned with great achievements. The country also hoped that his family would have 30 million stones of grain every year, but he couldn't even get it. So he knelt down and cried, and Li Xian comforted him, but he also asked him to write a letter to Li Hong to apologize.

If you can defeat the old Wei, you can't defeat the king's painting. With the king's painting, it was a reassurance. As soon as something big happened, it would be solved immediately. Moreover, Wang's painting was good, and he was not greedy for power, and he would release it as soon as he said it. For the sake of the Tang Dynasty, he went to Lingnan. Did you see that? Large areas of land were cultivated, and a grain production area would immediately appear.

Zhou Yong wrote a letter immediately, but after Li Hong received the letter halfway, she burned it without even reading it.

So a group of people plotted against Wang Hua's idea again. But it was not easy to plan. Now they have arrived in Qinzhou, where will they go? Isn't it a big deal to say that Wang Hua saved Li Chongjun?

But they should not think of a way. A big thing finally surfaced.

The money is less, but it will not happen all at once. The market also has an automatic adjustment process. It is easy for people to buy things, but it is difficult for people to sell things. If you sell, buy it. The market continues to rotate. However, due to the lack of money, goods began to accumulate and prices automatically fell. Even Qinzhou was affected. Fortunately, the transformation was timely. Now the population arranged in Qinzhou is mainly agriculture, and infrastructure is in full swing, and there is no big slander. However, other places in the Tang Dynasty could not have been as crazy as Qinzhou.

As the price of goods dropped, the buyer took a wait-and-see attitude. Some people began to react smartly, but did not expect the problem of copper coins. They believed that silk had increased the price and some people hoarded it, so the currency was insufficient. However, the depreciation of goods meant that copper coins had risen. So some people began to hoard copper coins.

But the bulk transactions still have to be carried out. At this time, a list of flying money lists appeared among the people, which is the ranking of the reliability of flying money. The first is the flying money from the court. The reason given is that the court's tax revenue increased last year and there were many copper coins in the treasury. The reason for not supporting it is that the court mainly wants to use flying money to transfer copper coins to the capital from the local area, so it is troublesome to cash out in places outside the capital. The second is the flying money distributed by the eighteen families. Although it has been suppressed by huge grains and has not taken action, the price of grain will always rise. The court released 35 million stones of grain in the national warehouse, which has not been supplemented yet. Therefore, the prospects are promising, and there are thirteen families among the eighteen families, which are the top families of the Tang Dynasty, and six of the ten families of the seven surnames and ten families. They have hoarded a large amount of grain.

We also have a lot of wealth in our hands. Therefore, it is ranked second. It is emphasized that now, because no one is willing to trade raw silk, only these two companies are the most reliable. Then we listed the other eight companies, and they all have their own reasons. Once this list was released, the eighteen companies suddenly became popular. However, these eighteen companies were very careful and did not dare to send much flying money. But after persisting for a while, they forced them to issue flying money, because Wang Hua's second batch of grain was 2.1 million stones, and the grain price still did not come down. But their shops still had to do business, like a few families with smaller money needed money to repay, so they issued another flying money. It was still fine, because the money of the eighteen companies was circulating as money, and few people cashed it out.

After investigating and discovering this situation, I became more courageous and issued another batch of flying money. With this batch of flying money issuance, the capital of the eighteen companies has flowed. However, the entire city is walking on thin ice, and prices are falling day by day. Some workshops have begun to close down, while some workshops have lowered their wages.

On the contrary, because the eighteen reliable Xinyu companies have the money to make capital, their business is like fish in water, and even use empty checks to eat many workshops that made them jealous of before. It is cheap, and now they buy the previous good workshops at 650% and 40% of the price.

With the sweetness, my courage became stronger and I released the fourth batch of flying money.

However, after the flying money was sent out, the situation changed immediately. Wang Hua's fourth batch of grain arrived in Suzhou, but the news came out. This time it was not one million or two hundred stones, but a total of three million stones of grain. Moreover, the workers on the ship also made a noise. Because the transaction was good, a batch would be added, which might not be less than three million stones. It would be transported to the capital before the summer harvest.

The money itself is getting more expensive. After this news came out, everyone knew that grain would not rise this year. So the list of flying money changed again. Eighteen companies fell out of the top ten, and the reason given was that Wang Hua did not break his promise and the price of grain would not rise within a few years. Moreover, the eighteen companies were greedy and issued the fourth batch of astonishing amounts of flying money. If the ranking list was, the eighteen companies could only rank last.

As soon as the list was released, all the merchants were still in shock and immediately cashed out the flying money they held. However, they could not cash out even after they exchanged all the money from the Eighteen Stores. Each shop could not afford the money, so they became even more panic. They went to the shops opened by the Eighteen Stores to ask for money.

But seeing that the situation was not good, the Eighteen companies quickly sealed up all their stores. Be reasonable. Is this a reasonable society? How powerful are the Eighteen companies? One by one, the businessmen are crying without tears.

As soon as the Eighteen Flying Money was lost, the whole good field fell to the ground.

The frightened bird didn't even dare to hold the flying money from the court, and the cash was even more tense, so the workshop went bankrupt and the market was deserted. There was almost no loading ship in the Luo River in the Grand Canal.

This time Li Xian knew what it means to lose money.

Li Xian immediately found Li Guer and said sternly: "Did that concubine Wang Hua tell you something?"

"Just say the money is gone, Father, you don't know."

"What else?" This time, things are so complicated, and it may be even more dangerous than last year's food. Although I love you, Li Xian's tone became more harsh.

"Father, I don't know much, I only heard Li Hong say that this situation is mainly due to the price of raw silk, so the people are unwilling to take out raw silk to trade.

The price of cotton cloth is falling every year, and merchants are unwilling to collect cotton cloth. There are also rising grain prices and prices also rising. The change of copper coins depreciates, and some people actually use copper coins to cast copperware for sale. But the country has limited copper, so there is no money."

The reason was known, but the solution was not heard. Li Xian continued to ask: "What else?"

"In fact, as long as you know the root of the problem, it will be easy to solve. It is just taking this opportunity to order all prefectures and counties to force plant food. Otherwise, what will happen if Wang Erlang cannot purchase food? Then forcibly plant mulberry and hemp. With enough raw silk, it can echo the copper coins, and the money problem will be solved. With grain, prices will stabilize and copper coins will get the due value, so the people are willing to trade copper coins. The father and emperor stopped building the big Buddha and saved the payment for copper. Money appeared. Also, if it is usually because it involves too many interests, it is difficult for the court to enforce it. It is just this opportunity to remove this biggest hidden danger."

This is a solution, but mulberry and hemp have been cut long ago. It will take several years to grow up. Can you wait that long?

"What else?"

"Also, Li Hong doesn't know, I don't know either. It seems that Li Hong said that the problem is not big, and it's in that tip."

By the way, for the second tip, Li Xian immediately asked someone to go to Luoyang to welcome Li Hong. But the people from the Wang family said that Li Hong was missing and didn't know where he went.

The imperial envoy had no choice but to come back.

Li Xian knew that Li Hong was deliberately escaping, but so what?

He immediately summoned the ministers and repeated Li Guer's words, which made a lot of sense. So the three provinces and six ministries took out the account books of various places, and the statistics were small, so that each state could allocate grain and mulberry and hemp to reduce cotton planting. Even the Wei family's fields would not work. They must be completed according to the task. Otherwise, they would be severely confiscated.

The edicts were issued one by one, and even Li Xian did not rest. After staying up all night, the edict was issued. Li Xian asked: "Dear friends, can you have a way to solve this matter immediately?"

Solve it immediately? How to solve it? Should I release the copper coins in the treasury? How to release it? The country comes to purchase land shops? What has it become?

Just let it go, the money is enough? Ninety percent or not.

Li Xian was very disappointed and looked at everyone and asked, "Do you all have no way?"

Zong Chuke hesitated for a long time and said, "Your Majesty, it may be difficult."

"It's hard to come up with a way too. Could it be that if Lian waits until the mulberry grows up in three years?"

Song Hao didn't want to care about this matter at first, but his personality was like this. He could not help but implicate the country and said, "Your Majesty, I have met Wang Huateng once, and it seems that Wang Hua had expected this matter long ago. And after Li Hong's tone, Wang Hua also had a way to solve it."

It would be fine if he didn't say it, but when Li Xian was so angry that he snorted, how could I not know that Wang Hua had no choice. But Wang Hua had to think about everything, what if Wang Hua lost it? Last year was food, this year was money, and what would be next year? Why did the emperor be so bitter?
To be continued...
