Datang New Giants

Chapter 81
Li Yuan also noticed the abnormality, and couldn't help asking: "Du Qing's family, the game has already started, why don't you start?"

For this match, the two factions almost fought. Normally, for Li Yuan, it would be a matter that could be decided with a single sentence. He would definitely not spend a lot of trouble for a small household servant, but this time it was different. The two personally led the troops to force the Turks back, and let Datang once again turn the corner, this face must be given.

The opportunity that was finally won, just deal with it like this?
Isn't this child's play?

Du Ruhui said respectfully: "If you go back to the emperor, Wei Xima is high-spirited. In order to show respect for Wei Xima, I decided to start after two sticks of incense."

What?Let Erzhuxiang?

As soon as Du Ruhui's words fell, the whole court was like a boiling pot. Everyone looked at Du Ruhui while discussing:
"What's going on? This Du Zhonglang is too arrogant."

"Yeah, the business is not as familiar as Wei Xima, and the team members are not as skilled as the old people in the household department. They already have the upper hand, so let Er Zhuxiang?"

"Will you know that there is no chance of winning, and deliberately grab the head start?"

"The Duke of Qin didn't even scold him. Could it be that the Palace of the Duke of Qin has some trump card?"

The ministers in the court chatted a lot, and Li Yuan didn't know what to say, so he signaled Du Ruhui to sit down.

Let me let it go, I don't care, the household department is in the hands of the crown prince, the second child not only has the Tiance Mansion, but also the Xia Dongdao Daxingtai, who controls almost one person in the Tang Dynasty. The power is too great, yes Time to restrict.

Li Jiancheng looked at Du Ruhui, who was sitting still, with some doubts, and tentatively said to Li Er: "Second brother, what is the reason for Du Zhonglang? It's too ugly, the emperor has to admit it."

"I made big brother laugh." Li Er shook his head, and said with some displeasure, "This Du Keming just likes to make his own decisions."

Li Jiancheng's eyes lit up, and he said jokingly, "If the second brother is too busy with affairs and has no time to teach his servants, my brother will be happy to help."

You can't even train a servant well, and you still want to compete with yourself?Don't think that you are great, now that the Turks are rampant, you need him to charge forward for the time being, and when the situation stabilizes, it will be the end of the birds and the cunning rabbits.

Li Er sighed, and said reproachfully: "I always said to stay on the front line in everything, so that we can meet each other in the future, let Keming be courteous for half an hour, so that the elder brother's loss will not be too ugly. If he didn't listen, he only let him for a quarter of an hour Don't worry, big brother, I will definitely teach him a good lesson when I go back, by the way, if big brother loses, won't he deny it?"

"You..." Li Jiancheng's face changed suddenly, he stared at Li Er, and then sneered: "Okay, okay, okay, second brother is so confident, let's wait and see."

I wanted to make a bet, but when I remembered that my second brother never fought uncertain battles, I swallowed the words again.

Just now there was an idea in my mind, that is to ask Wei Zheng to stop too, and he doesn't need to let him, so as not to say that winning is disgraceful, after all, Wei Zheng had the upper hand before the game, but after thinking about it, he gave up, the fat on his mouth, Let's talk after eating, the second child likes to die and let him do it, first get the household department in his hand and then talk.

Controlling the household department is equivalent to controlling Datang's money bag. At that time, Li Er's power will be disintegrated step by step through money and grain, and his position as the prince will be as stable as Mount Tai.

After years of fighting, the Tang treasury has long been unable to make ends meet. The money is not enough. If you give this, that will be gone. The household department is in your own hands. Those disobedient soldiers make things difficult for them. Let's see how he still buys people's hearts, whether those soldiers have no money or food and still follow him.

Zhang Yushi asked in a low voice: "Doctor Xiao, this Du Keming is too conceited, isn't he? What's the benefit of letting Er Zhuxiang even when he is clearly at a disadvantage?"

Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes, shook his head and said, "Either Du Keming has the secret to winning, or the King of Qin has other plans, maybe the King of Qin uses this to plot other things. , let's watch it carefully, the good show has started, and you will know after watching it."

Wei Zheng also noticed the movement of the other party. He was surprised to see Du Ruhui and his team members still sitting upright. He looked up at the prince, but Li Jiancheng didn't have any new instructions, he just hesitated for a moment, and soon returned to the tense calculating.

They don't know what they want to do, just do their own thing first.

After passing Erzhuxiang, Li Jiancheng's pupils shrank suddenly: Du Ruhui and his team members suddenly took out a strange thing from their arms, it was a frame with a lot of beads strung together, I don't know what it was for .

Not only Li Jiancheng, but also Xiao Yu, Li Yuan, civil and military officials who didn't know the truth, all opened their eyes wide, not knowing what Du Ruhui was showing.

No one has seen it.

One thing is certain, King Qin and Du Ruhui's arrogance and calmness are probably related to this thing.

Du Ruhui and his entourage finally made a move. They saw that each of them had an account book in their hands, and then they started to move the beads facing that strange thing.

"Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa."

Soon, the hall was filled with the sound of beads colliding. Hearing the familiar voice, Li Er showed an imperceptible smile, and Li Jiancheng frowned.

After observing for a while, Li Jiancheng frowned more tightly. He couldn't help saluting Li Yuan, and said loudly: "Father, it's not fair. Du Zhonglang and the others deliberately made abnormal noises to interfere with Wei Xima's calculations. Please order Make them stop interfering."

For some reason, when he heard the crackling sound, Li Jiancheng felt very irritable in his heart. It could be that this annoyance came from a sense of crisis in his heart.

Du Ruhui and the others flicked the beads while flipping through the account books. Their speed of turning the pages was more than twice as fast as that of Wei Zheng and the others. In just a quarter of an hour, the distance between the two teams could be seen with the naked eye. Can't get much closer.

At the beginning, Du Ruhui gave up Er Zhuxiang's time.

"Father Emperor" Li Er didn't wait for Li Yuan to speak, and followed up: "I can't agree with elder brother's words. The sound of the beads is slightly louder than that of using beads, and it is far from the level of interference. The servants of the household department have also been there. , The Tang Dynasty has a vast territory and numerous accounts, and it is as busy as a market every day. The situation is even noisy now, but you can still do things with peace of mind. Wei Xima can be said to have the best time and place. unfair."

Li Er despised his eldest brother Li Jiancheng in his heart. Seeing that the general trend was over, he was still fussing about those side details. Not only was it useless, but it made people feel small.

Li Yuanrao looked at the things in Du Ruhui's hands with some curiosity, and said casually: "Pei Aiqing, you will host the competition, what do you think?"

The two sons met again at the court meeting, Li Yuan was a little unhappy, and threw this question to Pei Ji.

Pei Ji pondered for a while, and quickly said: "The voice of Du Zhonglang's team is slightly louder, and I think it is within the acceptable range, and there is nothing wrong with it."

As Li Yuan's confidant, Pei Ji knew Li Yuan's thoughts, but all the civil and military officials were watching, and they couldn't open their eyes to see the nonsense. Besides, King Qin can make a tool that can replace counting chips, so it can naturally reduce its voice. Not to mention, wrapping the beads with a layer of tulle can solve the problem of noise, even if it is a comparison, Du Ruhui wins.

It is said that if a worker wants to be good at his work, he must first sharpen his tools. In terms of "tools", Du Ruhui obviously has the upper hand, and this is also the reason why he dared to let Wei Zheng Erzhuxiang time.

When the two teams were calculating, Pei Ji had been watching from the side, and now he also figured out something. Du Ruhui's calculation equipment should combine the advantages of bead chips and lottery chips, saving a lot of time in the calculation process, but he doesn't know how accurate it is.

If Wei Zheng wants to win, he can only win in precision.

Li Yuan refused to take sides, Pei Ji also came to a conclusion, Li Jiancheng was dissatisfied, and could only accept the result.

Time passed by, and Li Yuan and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs were waiting patiently, eating hot tea and snacks from the maid, while waiting for the results from both sides.

About an hour and a half later, Du Ruhui stood up suddenly, and respectfully presented a piece of folded paper: "The account for October has been settled, please review it by Secretary Pei."

So fast?Pei Ji took the paper in surprise, nodded and said, "Okay, Du Zhonglang, please wait a moment."

From the corner of Pei Jiyan's corner, he could see that Wei Zheng still had nearly one-third of the account book that had not been counted. It was too soon. You must know that Wei Zheng still had to take a big step ahead, and there was an extra two pillars of time to count.

Looking at the paper with the number written in his hand, Pei Ji turned his head and looked at the eunuch who sent the message. The eunuch who sent the message knew what Pei Ji meant, and hurried to the side hall to get the answer. Calculate, and their answers can be used for reference and comparison.

The eunuch came back shortly after sending the message, panting while replying: "Back to Pei Sikong, Dr. Wang and the others haven't finished it yet, and it will probably take another quarter of an hour."

As soon as the words fell, there was another sound of surprise in the court hall.
