Li Shimin, a farm in the western suburbs, also paid close attention to it.

He knew that Li Chengqian was rich and dared to spend it.

Regardless of that small farm, the real gold and silver invested every day are countless.

Not to mention the investment of the army and Bailu Academy.

"You child, how can I not know your suffering?"

Li Shimin decided to play the emotional card.

It is impossible to fight, and every time you fight, you will lose.

Empress Changsun persuaded from the side: "Chengqian, your father is the king of a country, it's not easy to take care of the world, you are a prince, you are the heir apparent, if you can help your father, you can help your father, don't complain. "

Empress Changsun was very virtuous and taught Li Chengqian earnestly.

Trying to save face for Li Shimin.

Li Chengqian said indifferently: "Mother, it's not that the sons and ministers don't help the father, the relatives are the relatives, and the wealth is the wealth. The two cannot be mixed."

Hearing this, Li Shimin lowered his face, it was all a mess.

It even rhymes.

Li Shimin said quietly: "Chengqian, if you say that, I will settle a score with you."

"Attacking Goguryeo, you also gained a lot of benefits, I know it's not easy for you, so turn a blind eye to this matter."

"At the end of the war, everything is confiscated, and the household department must count and turn it over to the national treasury. This is the rule, but you think I don't know about the good things you white-robed soldiers have done?"

"The Cheng family, Yuchi's family, and the young grandson's family, I'm ashamed to say, good guys, I forcibly stopped my liquidation officials in the city, and insisted on buying them a drink."

"Su Dingfang, Xue Rengui, and Wang Xuance and those boys took advantage of this time to lead the white-robed army to pull out gold, silver and jewels. At least [-]% of the treasure was taken away by the white-robed army from the Goguryeo treasury."

"My Xuanjia army couldn't stop them. They ran to the Tang Dynasty after pulling them. This is what your soldiers did. Do you still think you are at a disadvantage? The Ministry of Households wrote a letter of impeachment, and let me suppress everything. You I don’t know it yet!”

The more Li Shimin spoke, the louder he became, and the more he spoke, the more reasonable he felt.

"Heh..." Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and said, "If the emperor said this, I will have to settle accounts with you. The son came out by himself."

"Furthermore, how much contribution the white-robed army has made in the eastward expedition to Goguryeo, do you still need to tell you how big a territory is in Goguryeo, and the governors of other counties did not move at all, but only dragged it in the city of Pyongyang." Thirty percent of the money, is that a lot?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin's face turned livid: "How many troops did you send out? The White Robe Army and Mo Daowei together only have more than 1 soldiers and horses, but I have sent out a full 50 troops."

"If this is the case, if we go to war with other countries in the future, I will negotiate with you first, so you don't always feel that you are at a loss."

Li Chengqian looked at Empress Changsun and said, "Mother, you must have heard that Emperor Father wants to negotiate terms with his ministers."

"A kiss is a kiss, wealth is wealth, the two cannot be mixed."

He thought to himself, this cheap father is addicted to robbery and beating.

Just a few days after fighting Goguryeo, I began to think about other countries again.

"You..." Li Shimin trembled angrily, "You are really going to piss me off..."

"You child..." Empress Changsun hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "We had a good conversation just now, but in the blink of an eye, we're arguing with your father again."

"Okay, okay..." Li Shimin waved his hand and said: "I don't care about you, so how about it, I will ask the Minister of the Ministry of Households, Liu Zheng, to discuss with you about specific cooperation matters."

"I will pay as much as I should. Don't worry, I won't take a penny from you."

"I will send the household department to buy the grain seeds and livestock cubs produced by the farms in the western suburbs."

Li Shimin was defeated again.

They ate and drank at the Prince's Courtyard, and before they left, they suggested Li Chengqian's farm in the western suburbs.

It's really unkind to do this.

This matter involves the national economy and the people's livelihood, and the Ministry of Household Affairs should pay some money, which is what it should be.

Li Chengqian was able to devote his energy to this, and he had already shared a lot of worries for him.

Li Shimin understands these reasons.

But he just couldn't understand Li Chengqian's face of a rich man.

When it came to talking and doing things, he didn't save any face for him.

Li Chengqian said lightly: "Father, don't worry, my son has already notified Zheng Qian, and tomorrow he will go to the household department to meet with Liu Zhenghui to discuss the specific acquisition matters."

"You don't have to worry, my son will definitely not let you suffer."

Li Shimin gritted his teeth: "You are really my good son."

Empress Zhangsun hurriedly changed the subject: "Chengqian, your grandpa has been unwell for the past few days and has been unable to eat. You might as well go and have a look, and make some delicious food for your grandpa by the way."

Hearing this, Li Shimin lowered his head and remained silent.

"Alas..." He sighed, "It's been two years, and the old man still refuses to see me."

There is some sadness in the words.

The Xuanwu Gate mutinied, and brothers killed each other.

This matter does not belong to anyone, and no one can understand Li Yuan's mood.

Conquered the world and became emperor.

The sons killed each other because of the throne.

Three sons, two of them died, this is unacceptable to anyone.

After Li Yuan abdicated, he lived in the deep palace for a long time, singing and dancing, living a very happy life.

But Li Chengqian knew that these were all pretended by Li Yuan.

If he didn't experience a great enlightenment, it would be impossible for Li Yuan to get out of this shadow.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have seen Li Shimin for two years.

Empress Changsun comforted: "Your Majesty, don't be sad, the Supreme Emperor must have his own difficulties."

"If he doesn't see you, how can he still see Cheng Qian?"

Li Chengqian has never seen Li Yuan so far.

As the eldest grandson of the emperor, it was time for him to see the Supreme Emperor.

Li Shimin said helplessly: "Oh, this is the only way to go now."

"Chengqian, you are proficient in medicine and cooking, take time to visit your grandpa."

"Your grandpa, the emperor, worked hard all his life for the Li family. In the end, he won the world, but he lost his family."

"Really, things are impermanent."

Li Chengqian cupped his hands and said: "Yes, father, queen, and sons and ministers will definitely do it."

Chapter 333 Visiting Li Yuan

Speaking of sad things, Li Shimin didn't want to stay longer, so he went back.

Seeing his appearance, Empress Changsun lost her mood and left with Li Shimin.

Li Chengqian took the order of his parents to visit the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan.

However, he couldn't go there empty-handed, he was going to Luban Pavilion in the courtyard to give Li Yuan a good deal.

Luban Pavilion...

Sun Liuchuan is leading several craftsmen under him to study and build a house in the courtyard.

Concrete house, wooden door and window frames, glass windows.

But they're just getting started.

According to the drawings given by Li Chengqian, the foundation has just been laid.

They lived here on weekdays, and Li Chengqian gave them four days off every month, so they could go home to spend time with their wives and children.

Li Chengqian plans to set up a construction firm to engage in real estate development.

Cement-brick houses will be the standard configuration of common people's housing in the Tang Dynasty in the future.

Only in this way can the northern people get rid of the cold winter.

By the way, make a little money.

Of course, Li Chengqian will not spend this money indiscriminately. It is taken from the people and used for the people.

Everything is for the growing prosperity of Datang.

"His Royal Highness."

When several craftsmen saw Li Chengqian coming in, they greeted him enthusiastically.

They feel lucky to be able to follow Li Chengqian around.

"Excuse me." Li Chengqian waved his hand, "Liu Chuan, come with me."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"You continue to work according to the drawings..."

After Sun Liuchuan confessed, he followed Li Chengqian.

"His Royal Highness, what fun thing have you developed?" Sun Liuchuan's face was filled with joy.

He was full of anticipation, every time Li Chengqian came, he would come up with something amazing.

"This is the drawing." Li Chengqian handed the drawing to Sun Liuchuan.

He took it with both hands, his eyes glowing.

Shaking off the blueprint, with joy on his face, he looked at it intently.

"En?" Sun Liuchuan stopped where he was, with a puzzled expression on his face: "His...Your Highness, what is this? Why can't I see it?"

"Chess." Li Chengqian said lightly.

Sun Liuchuan frowned: "Chess? This kind of low-level stuff is really unheard of and unseen."

Li Chengqian explained: "Like Go, it is a game."

"Just get out of the car."

Sun Liuchuan cupped his hands and said, "It's Your Highness."

The two of them worked back and forth for an hour, and finally finished making the chess.

Li Chengqian put the chess in a finely carved red sandalwood box, and took it out of Luban Pavilion.

Back to the Prince's Courtyard, he took a group of cooks and headed for Daxing Palace in a mighty manner.

Li Shimin has been the emperor for two years, and he still lives in the East Palace. It is a bit miserable to be true.

He was miserable, and Li Chengqian, the son, was miserable.

"See, His Royal Highness..."

……

After entering the Daxing Palace, the maids and servants greeted Li Chengqian along the way.

He lowered his head and looked puzzled.

Li Chengqian is a rare visitor.

It has been two years since I have been to Daxing Palace.

In fact, it wasn't that Li Chengqian didn't want to come. Li Yuan didn't want to see Li Shimin, nor did he want to see him.

After all, the shadow left by the Xuanwu Gate mutiny on Li Yuan was like a nightmare.

Walk all the way.

Li Chengqian looked at Daxing Palace.

Li Yuan lived in such a big palace and raised countless beauties, it really made things difficult for him.

Li Yuan's bedroom.

Surrounded by some imperial doctors, their faces were anxious, like ants on a hot pan.
