Chapter 228 Silly
After Li Shimin awarded the reward, Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, although the whole army is popularized according to the method of Jingyang County Marquis, the trained army is definitely not as good as the complete method."
Hearing what Fang Xuanling said, Li Shimin knew that he should have other plans, and asked, "What does Xuanling think?"
Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, although promoting the entire army would consume too much energy, it is absolutely possible to train a strong army. The number of people does not need to be too large, [-] is enough."
"Your Majesty, Fang Xiang's method is very wonderful!" Yu Chi respectfully agreed.
Niu Jinda and others also quickly echoed.
After all, the people who are training now are all on the left to lead the army, so it has nothing to do with them.
And once they increase, they have a chance.
After all, there are not so many people in the left leader.
Li Shimin pondered for a while and said, "Where's the money?"
He also knew that it was unrealistic for the whole army to train according to Lin Xuan's method, and he could train a part of it first.
The problem is that the national treasury has no money at all now, and he paid the money for the repair of the border fort last time from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
"Your Majesty, although the national treasury has no money, the Ministry of Internal Affairs does." Fang Xuanling said.
Although the ministers of civil and military affairs in the Tang Dynasty disliked each other, they were not as polarized as in the Song Dynasty.
Although Fang Xuanling was a civil servant, he didn't think about suppressing the general system. On the contrary, he knew the importance of military affairs.
"I just took out 200 million guan, and now the Ministry of Internal Affairs has no money."
Li Shimin was a little speechless, is it easy for him to have some money?
Before, Fang Xuanling liked to attract the attention of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but now that he knew he was rich, he started again.
Some time ago, he took out 200 million guan, which had almost consumed his Liuli Pavilion's income during this period.
"Your Majesty, I have heard that the Liuli Pavilion is making money every day, and the carriages that pull money into the palace every day stretch for several miles. The money for training the army does not need to be taken out at once, the Ministry of Internal Affairs must have it." Fang Xuanling said .
As a courtier, it's really too much to always think about the emperor's small coffers.
But the country needs money, but the treasury doesn't have it, and Fang Xuanling can't take care of that much anymore.
"I'll go back and ask the queen about this matter. After all, the House of Internal Affairs is under her control, and the queen's consent is needed."
Li Shimin was not reluctant to part with the money, but he couldn't agree too simply.
Lin Xuan nodded secretly. Li Shimin is not the kind of person who clearly divides public affairs and private affairs. To him, there is no difference between the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the national treasury. After all, the whole world belongs to his Li family.
Chongzhen at the end of the Ming Dynasty was different. The division of public and private affairs was very clear. The Ming treasury had no money, and he was reluctant to use the money in the internal treasury until his death.
When Li Zicheng arrived in Beijing, the treasury was indeed empty enough to raise mice.
But when they opened the inner vault of the palace, they found that the piles were full of gold and silver treasures.
……
It has been half a month since the last military parade.
Lin Xuan's new house has been fully built, and all the furniture is in place.
"Father, I'm going to choose an auspicious day, invite some guests to dinner, and then we'll move in," Lin Xuan said.
Lin Dongyang nodded and said: "Xuan'er, you have already been crowned, and you can handle these things as you see fit. But your mother and I won't live in this house. We have lived in this house for almost 20 years, and we are used to it. "
"Father, how can this work? If you don't want to live, then I won't go either."
Lin Xuan built such a big house just to let his parents enjoy themselves. If they don't go, why live in such a big place by himself.
"Xuan'er, your father and I are used to not talking here. Everyone we know lives here. If we move to a new house, there will be no one to talk to." Zhang Qing said.
They don't want to go there. Apart from these reasons, the other is that they are worried that after Lin Xuan gets married, the princess will not be easy to get along with.
In case life is not pleasant, there must be a lot of gossip when we move out again.
It's better not to pass in the first place.
"Father and mother, you live there. If you want friends, come to Chang'an." Lin Xuan said.
Lin Dongyang said angrily: "It's not like you don't know the way to Chang'an over there. If you come to Chang'an every day, won't you be torturing people?"
"Father, don't worry, I will ask someone to repair the road when I turn back, so as to ensure that your relationship with my mother will not be bumpy." Lin Xuan promised.
He originally planned to build the road from the new house to Chang'an into a concrete road.
"Stinky boy, how much will it cost for a few miles of road. It's fine for me and your mother to live in the old house." Lin Dongyang said.
"Father, it doesn't cost me much to build the road. Even if you don't live there, I still have to build that road." Lin Xuan said.
Lin Dongyang sighed and said, "Xuan'er, let me tell you the truth. Your mother and I are worried that you will cause trouble to you after you marry the princess."
Only then did Lin Xuan realize that his parents were worried about this, and explained with a smile: "Father and mother, Princess Changle is very easy to get along with."
Lin Dongyang and Zhang Qing still couldn't believe it.
Although the folks say that Princess Changle is virtuous and virtuous, she was born noble after all.
They were just merchants before, and they became nobles because of Lin Xuan, so some worries are inevitable.
"Father and mother, you go live first, and I will find a way to bring Princess Changle to you to meet later, if you feel difficult to get along with, come back later, okay?" Lin Xuan said.
Lin Dongyang glared at Lin Xuan and said, "What are you thinking? Don't say she is a princess, even ordinary people don't. They come here before they are married."
In ancient times, etiquette was emphasized, and no woman would go to her husband's house without getting married.
Of course, there are some people who get closer and closer, and the relationship before the marriage is not confirmed is not counted.
Lin Xuan's family is not related to the royal family, and their marriage has been confirmed.
Lin Xuan had a headache, gritted his teeth and said, "Father and mother, if you don't go, I won't go to live either. When I get married, let the princess live in the princess mansion."
Since it is not good to be soft, it can only be hard.
Zhang Qing said anxiously: "Xuan'er, what nonsense are you talking about? It's not easy for the princess to graciously agree to live at home and not live in the princess mansion. You can't mess around."
Lin Xuan said firmly: "Mother, if you don't go to live anyway, I won't go there either."
"This..." Zhang Qing looked at Lin Dongyang with some embarrassment.
Lin Dongyang was silent for a while, and said: "Since Xuan'er is filial, let's move there."
He knew his son's temper. If they didn't go, Lin Xuan would really do that, so he had to compromise.
"Father and mother, that's great. I'll find someone to count the auspicious days of the zodiac." Lin Xuan was very happy to convince his parents.
……
While Lin Xuan was busy moving to a new home, Wang Ze and his son finally received a reply from the Wang family in Taiyuan.
"Father, what does the family say?" Seeing Wang Ze put down the letter, Wang Qingyun asked quickly.
Wang Ze pondered for a while and said: "The family asked me to discuss cooperation with Lin Xuan. Find a way to get him out of the secret of making paper so quickly."
"Cooperation?" Wang Qingyun was stunned for a moment and said, "How could he cooperate with us? Isn't the elder of the family stupid?"
Wang Ze glared at Wang Qingyun, and scolded: "Shut up, you can talk about clan elders?"
Wang Qingyun quickly said: "Father, I didn't mean that, it's just that Lin Xuan's temper is stinky and hard, and he doesn't like our Wang family. Isn't asking him to cooperate to give him a chance to humiliate us?"
Knowing that his son was right, Wang Ze said, "The family said that if Lin Xuan does not agree to cooperate, they will find a way to transfer him away from Chang'an."
Apart from Lin Xuan, no one in the Lin family poses any threat.
Once Lin Xuan leaves Chang'an, the Paper Mill will be a piece of undefended fat.
As long as they get Lin Xuan's method of making paper quickly, they can resolve this crisis.
On the contrary, with this method, their Wang family has a chance to take off.
"Father, it's been so long, Lin Xuan has never left Chang'an except returning to Luoyang to worship his ancestors, how can he be transferred?" Wang Qingyun said.
Wang Ze smiled and said: "You forgot a rule of the court. He is a military officer and also has a title. If there is a war, he must go to the battlefield."
"But there is no war now." Wang Qingyun said puzzled.
Wang Ze said confidently: "There is no war now, but as long as the family is willing to pay the price, it can definitely create a war. But we need to contact him first to see if he is willing to cooperate."
The Wang family has been in business for so many years and has done business with many countries. As long as they are willing to pay the price, it is not difficult to create a war.
It's just that my price must be very high. If it is not a last resort, the Wang family is not willing to use it.
