Datang: I was exposed by Princess Changle

"New developments have a new atmosphere. You should be cautious and cautious about this kind of innovation. It will only make Datang's development stagnate and stagnate!"

"Your Majesty wants to open the imperial examinations to students all over the world. I think it's not bad."

Hearing the words, Gao Shilian stepped forward, nodded, and readily agreed.

"Report to Your Majesty, this humble minister seconded the proposal!" Du Ruhui stepped forward and agreed.

"Report to Your Majesty, the veteran seconded the proposal!" Yuchi Jingde also nodded in agreement.

"Report to Your Majesty, ministers and others!" Changsun Wuji also nodded happily and said.

"Okay! Then this time in Qiu Wei, I'll wait to see how everyone's eyes look!"

"I look forward to the day when I can see the talents of the Tang Dynasty as soon as possible!"

Li Shimin said happily with anticipation.

Afterwards, Li Shimin changed the subject and asked solemnly: "I looked at the income and expenditure account books of the household department this year, and the tax amount has increased by nearly ten times compared with previous years, but now it's just summer, and the household department's bank balance It is so empty that there is almost nothing left, you come and tell me, why is this?"

"Why is this year's expenditure almost ten times higher than in previous years?"

"Why are these big expenditures in name so outrageous?"

"Since I came to the throne, the household department has been in deficit year after year, and the holes are filled by the treasury."

"You all tell me, why is this?"

"You all talk about the household department, how to solve it?"

As soon as this word comes out.

All the officials looked at each other in blank dismay, bowed their heads in silence.

after awhile.

Liu Zhenghui, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, stood up when he heard the words, trembling all over, stepped forward tremblingly and said: "My Majesty, private schools are being promoted in various places in the Tang Dynasty this year, and the construction of expressways in various states and counties is also vigorous. It’s a huge expense to promote Xiangrui’s seeds and agricultural tools for free!”

Hearing this, Li Shimin replied with a dignified face: "But how come the purchase price of these expenses is so much higher than the market price?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhenghui, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, hesitated a little and said, "My Majesty, the things used by the imperial court must naturally be the best, and the best ones are naturally expensive!"

"Is that so, Liu Shangshu? Is it true? Are all these words absolutely true? You answer me truthfully!"

Li Shimin's eagle-like sharp eyes fixed on Liu Zhenghui's eyes, and asked with a serious face.

Puff!

Liu Zhenghui immediately knelt down when he heard the words, with a look of panic on his face, he said anxiously: "Your Majesty, how dare a humble official cheat! There is indeed no discrepancy in every payment in the account!"

"If there are falsehoods, it is the crime of deceiving the emperor! Even if you give me ten courages, I dare not commit such a heinous crime!"

Hubu Shangshu said sincerely while bowing his head reverently.

The voice just fell.

Hearing this, Li Shimin said solemnly and coldly, "I hope so!"

"You all go back and think about this problem!"

"I will thoroughly investigate this matter!"

"Disperse!"

Afterwards, Li Shimin flicked his sleeves, walked out of the hall, and drove back to the palace.

Seeing this, all the officials looked at each other with uneasy expressions, and then left one after another.

They had an inexplicable premonition that a big political storm was looming.

-

After Li Shimin came down from court.

He came directly to the Furong Garden where Lin Xuan lives now.

In a Lanting in the Furong Garden.

Lin Xuan and Li Shimin are playing chess amidst the fragrance of tea.

"Prince Jin, how are you doing recently?"

"How's business with your ice shop lately?"

Li Shimin chatted casually.

"Everything is as usual, very good."

"The business of the ice shop is indeed worse than when it first started."

"However, this is what was expected."

Lin Xuanyun replied calmly.

After speaking, Lin Xuan played another white stone, and reminded lightly: "Your Majesty, it's your turn."

Hearing this, Li Shimin frowned, with a pensive look on his face, and said lightly: "Oh, let me think about it first."

Then Li Shimin took a closer look at the current chess game, and suddenly found that Lin Xuan's Baizi had already sent pawns to test it out, and then sent a general to drive straight in, and had already entered his position.

Li Shimin didn't know how to make the bet for a while, and after careful consideration, he bet a sunspot with a look of hesitation.

Afterwards, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief, with a look of concern on his face, and said with some embarrassment: "Actually, I am here this time because I have something important to ask you for advice."

The voice just fell.

Lin Xuan said calmly after hearing the words: "Your Majesty has always come to the Three Treasures Hall when you come to find me. I'm not surprised at all."

"Tell me, what troubled His Majesty this time?"

As soon as this word comes out.

Hearing this, Li Shimin scratched the back of his head, and said awkwardly: "Ah, actually, I came this time to ask about the imperial examination."
