The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 662

Ask Li Er to allocate more funds to help Xu Tian with his construction project.

"Now that the south has just recovered from the disaster, it is the time when construction projects are needed."

“Construction projects also require money, and the funds allocated earlier are probably already almost gone.”

Li Er nodded.

"really!"

Cheng Yaojin struck while the iron was hot.

"Xu Tian is indeed a rare talent; he can do his best in whatever he does."

"Now that the south is undergoing large-scale expansion, it is precisely the time when silver is needed."

Upon hearing Cheng Yaojin's words, the prime minister...

I was instantly unhappy.

He originally wanted to mess with Xu Tian.

But unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin actually got Li Er to allocate funds to Xu Tian.

Wouldn't this backfire?

Wouldn't Xu Tian's life be even better?

Absolutely not, he can't let that happen.

He stepped forward and bowed with his hands clasped in greeting.

"Your Majesty, no, you mustn't..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Er interrupted him.

"Prime Minister! Please watch your words."

Upon hearing this, the prime minister...

Li Er's voice was filled with rage.

And when she looked at him, her face was full of anger.

"Why does Your Excellency find it unacceptable?"

Cheng Yaojin directly asked the prime minister.

He simply didn't believe that he could actually come up with any profound insights.

But whatever he says is no longer of any use.

The Emperor has already agreed.

If His Majesty agrees, there might still be room for maneuver.

At that moment, Cheng Yaojin felt that the prime minister was extremely foolish.

The prime minister also knew about this matter; Cheng Yaojin was deliberately helping Xu Tian.

The prime minister was displeased.

However, he couldn't find any reason to make excuses.

"Now, due to the disaster, the national treasury is empty, and at this time, to still allow Lord Xu to carry out various expansions, isn't that...?"

The prime minister clasped his hands in greeting.

He looked troubled.

Li Er was furious when he heard the prime minister's words.

"Prime Minister, are you trying to stop Xu Tian from getting into construction?"

Cheng Yaojin followed up on this, saying, "Does the Prime Minister have some kind of feud with Lord Xu? It seems that Lord Xu is opposing us at every turn!"

Upon hearing Cheng Yaojin's words, the prime minister quickly denied them.

"My lord, what do you mean by that? You must know that Xu Tian entered the Daoist sect, and it was all thanks to my help."

"How could I possibly be at odds with that Lord Xu?"

He denied it outright.

They will never admit it.

He was unhappy with Xu Tian.

Li Er has always protected Xu Tian.

If they knew he didn't get along with Xu Tian, ​​they would definitely look at him differently.

It might even affect his son's career in the future.

Therefore, he absolutely cannot be so hasty.

"Alright, that's settled then. You may all leave!"

Li Er made the final decision.

Regardless of whether the prime minister would object.

He has already decided to allocate funds to Xu Tian.

No one dared to stop it.

The prime minister naturally knew that there was no room for negotiation on this matter.

I have no choice but to take my leave.

When he got home, he unleashed a torrent of anger.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin also helped Xu Tian.

He always spoke up for Xu Tian in court.
