Datang: Stop pretending, you are a peerless expert

The next morning, Su Yu was still sleeping in the room.

In the dream, Princess Gaoyang rushed towards Princess Changle holding a 40-meter machete
"Son-in-law, get up."

Su Yu opened his eyes and saw the queen sitting beside the bed with a smile on her face.

"Sister-in-law? Why are you here?"

Su Yu was half asleep and half awake, forgetting that the queen had been promoted to become mother-in-law.

"It's still called sister-in-law, mother-in-law."

The queen pulled up Su Yu's quilt to cover Su Yu's body.

Mo Yu felt so embarrassed beside him.

This son-in-law, did you practice marksmanship early in the morning?

Su Yu turned over and became much more awake.

"Oh, mother-in-law, why are you here?"

Su Yu laughed.

"This morning, your father wants to invite you over to hear how to go to court."

said the Queen.

Her mission here is to trick Su Yu into the court.

Su Yu hugged the pillow and said, "Mother-in-law, I'm not a prince, so why should I learn to go to court?"

"Let me sleep a little longer, I'm finally sleeping alone."

With her eyes closed, Su Yu fell asleep again.

The queen woke up Su Yu and said, "Just go and listen, don't you want to see how your father looks like when he goes to court?"

The queen moved around, and Su Yu couldn't fall asleep.

"OK then."

Su Yu got out of bed and did some stretching exercises, while Mo Yu watched beside her, her heart pounding.

Prince Consort God and Man
The little eunuch came to take care of washing and dressing.

After eating something, the queen led Su Yu out.

When I got outside, I found that it was daylight.

"Mother-in-law, it's so early. I never got up early in Datang."

"No, I'm going back to sleep again."

Su Yu felt cheated.

Waking up so early is completely incompatible with the cultivation of a salted fish.

The queen hurriedly hugged Su Yu, said with a chuckle, "Son-in-law, it's always been like this in the early courts, and your father-in-law is already in the Tai Chi Hall."

In ancient times, the court time was generally earlier. The Ming Dynasty started at five o'clock in the morning, and the Qing Dynasty started later.

As for the Tang Dynasty, there is no record in the history books. Su Yu calculated the time and it should be after six o'clock.

It was too early, Su Yu felt cheated.

"Son-in-law, you are all dressed, why are you sleeping?"

Empress Changsun asked the little eunuch to close the door.

The courtyard door was closed, and the queen hugged Su Yu tightly.

"Mother-in-law, how decent is it to hug so tightly, I'll do it."

Su Yu discovered that the Queen's strength is quite strong, no wonder Changle is so wild, hereditary.

Only then did the queen realize that she had lost her composure.

Letting go of her hand, the queen straightened her clothes, with the demeanor of a dignified queen again.

"Consort, please."

The Queen led the way and took Su Yu into the Tai Chi Hall.

At the gate of the main hall, Eunuch Gao was waiting.

Li Shimin specifically confessed that he would wait for Su Yu to come before going to court early.

"Your Majesty, my son-in-law."

Eunuch Gao saluted with a smile.

"My son-in-law, if a woman does not enter the court, I will not enter."

The Queen left with a smile.

The task was completed, and the queen was very happy.

"My son-in-law, the emperor and all the ministers have been waiting for a long time, please."

Eunuch Gao was extremely respectful. He followed Li Shimin, knowing Su Yu's weight, and dared not neglect him in the slightest.

Su Yu followed Eunuch Gao into the court.

Wen and Wu stood in two rows.

Li Shimin sat high on the dragon chair, with the ministers underneath, and a chair on the side.

Su Yu knew that it was his seat, so he walked over and sat down.

The three of them, Fang Xuanling and Cheng Yaojin, were familiar with Su Yu and knew his temper.

The other ministers were not familiar with Su Yu.

Today Li Shimin specially arranged a chair for him, but the other ministers had to stand, already feeling a little dissatisfied.

Just now, after waiting for Su Yu to go to court, he waited for a full hour, and his dissatisfaction grew even greater.

Su Yu walked in with a sloppy look, which made them even more annoyed.

It is too much to sit on a chair with your legs crossed without paying homage to the emperor or greeting the ministers after entering the court hall.

It's just that because Su Yu is Li Shimin's son-in-law, it's not easy for them to have a fit.

Regardless of the dissatisfaction of the courtiers, Li Shimin was very happy.

Finally, he tricked Su Yu into the court.

Li Shimin coughed and nodded to Eunuch Gao.

"The emperor has a decree. If there is something to do, he will play it, and if there is nothing to do, he will retreat from the court."

Liu Zhenghui, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, came out and said: "Qizuo the emperor, Yangzhou has a bumper rice harvest in the second season, and the warehouse in the south of the Yangtze River can't hold it. The governor Zhao Mu asked to buy Yangzhou rice and transport it to Luoyang, Chang'an for storage."

The yield of hybrid rice exceeded their expectations.

When the first season of rice was harvested, the places in the south of the Yangtze River had enough rice to feed for a year.

By the second season, the warehouse was directly filled.

The ministers of the DPRK and China were shocked when they heard that the warehouse in Jiangnan could not hold it.

"The warehouse can't hold it, it's impossible."

"Can the yield of hybrid rice reach this level?"

"Liu Shangshu, will Zhao Mu conceal the report?"

"The warehouse can't fit, this is something that has never happened before."

"There is too much food to eat? How is it possible?"

The ministers were suspicious and did not believe it.

Liu Zhenghui said: "Your Majesty, my lords, this matter is true."

"At the beginning, I also suspected that I sent people to Jiangnan to investigate, and it was true that there was too much food to eat."

"Let the emperor make a decision."

When he first received the news from Zhao Mu, Liu Zhenghui also felt incredible.

From ancient times to the present, people have been worrying about not having enough food.

I didn't expect to worry about too much food now.

Li Shimin was overjoyed and said, "My son-in-law, this is all thanks to you."

If it weren't for Su Yu's hybrid rice seeds, how could there be such a bumper harvest.

Su Yu waved his hand and said, "Father, you are welcome, just remember to give the money."

Li Shimin was speechless, and thought to himself: Brat, don't you give face to the court?
"Okay, Liu Shangshu, you send a boat to Yangzhou to transport the rice from the south of the Yangtze River to Chang'an, Luoyang, and Youzhou."

"The money for the purchase is drawn from the treasury, and the price should be higher than the market price, so as not to hurt farmers with cheap grain."

Li Shimin said.

If the price of food is too low, the common people will stop farming, and the country will disappear at all.

"The minister obeys the order."

Liu Zhenghui took the order.

Su Yu sat on the chair, and Cheng Yaojin kept winking at him in greeting.

Su Yu didn't want to pay attention to this Tie Hanhan who was eating and drinking, and pretended not to see it.

Qin Qiong laughed softly and said: "Zhijie, the son-in-law doesn't care about you, so why be so affectionate."

Cheng Yaojin smiled and said: "It's okay, just drink."

After talking about the government affairs, Li Shimin turned to Su Yu and said, "My son-in-law, what do you think of the court's proposal?"

Su Yu yawned and said, "It's okay, have you guys finished talking yet? I'm going back to sleep."

Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and the others are used to Su Yu's appearance, so they are not surprised.

But the other ministers saw this for the first time.

Li Shimin said with a smile: "The court discussion is over this morning, do you want to be an official in the court? You can choose any position in the court."

The ministers were astonished, Su Yu was so cynical, the emperor actually asked him to be an official?

Pick a seat at random?

Doesn't that mean that I will be removed at any time and give up my seat to Su Yu?
This is too pitiful.

Finally, a minister was unconvinced and walked out.

"Your Majesty, the court hall is a solemn place, how could it be so?"

A general came out and was very upset to see Su Yu.
