Tang's dining table

Yun Chu, Wen Wen, and Di Renjie had very few armed guards around them. According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, Yun Chu, a prince, could have sixteen generals, twenty-four armed guards, and sixty households.

In other words, Yun Chu could mobilize a total of 140 armed forces at will.

Among the one hundred and forty people, there can be sixteen who wear iron armor, twenty-four who wear leather armor, and sixty who have crossbows and spears.

Gentle and Di Renjie together have only half the armed strength of Yun Chu.

The three of them have always abided by this law and never exceeded it.

Even the number of maids and servants at home is very inconsistent with their status.

In other words, Yun Chu's family had more maids, servants, and house servants, and they were gentle, so Di Renjie and the two of them basically didn't need them.

Some maids and servants have not been able to get rid of them yet. Once they get rid of them, the emperor, queen, and a large group of people who want to get some news from them will feel uneasy.

The ladies of these three families don't need to be jealous of the other women. They need to master another more advanced knowledge - how to identify spies.

The family was full of spies, not to mention the yamen. Sometimes Yun Chu really doubted that everyone who came to Chang'an as an official had some secret mission to monitor the three of them before coming.

Therefore, in the hands of Shang, Yun Chu, Wen Wen, and Di Renjie, the only personal power they can control is the various shopkeepers and the caravan.

There are five big shopkeepers in Yunchu's family. Each big shopkeeper has ten second-level shopkeepers, twenty third-level shopkeepers, and a hundred big men. Plus the accountant, the guard is also a very powerful force. .

At home, the yamen was like a sieve due to spies, but in the caravan, Di Renjie always maintained its purity.

Therefore, after Yao Chong obtained the authority of the second-level shopkeeper, he immediately had two third-level shopkeepers and five big guys.

This is the basic team that Wenrou gives to Yao Chong. As for what kind of manpower is needed, he can borrow it from various second-level shopkeepers laterally.

Watching Yao Chong leave, Yun Chu said to Wen Wen, "Aren't you afraid that you will destroy Yao Chong this time when you cheat the queen?"

Wen Wen shook his head and said: "Whether it works or not, you will know if you pull it out and give it a try. Don't you often say that geniuses do not need experience or cultivation, they can become talented on their own?"

Yun Chu nodded and said: "If you don't have such ability, why are you called a genius? The so-called genius is someone who is born with talents. It's very unfair to say that such people have better luck than ordinary people."

Gentle said: "Although this is unfair to him, Yao Chong started to follow the Yellow River Loop from the first step. In this way, he will have more courage and confidence when dealing with subsequent matters.

You said, what should Yao Chong do if he can't succeed? "

Yunchu spread his hands and said, "Then continue to search, continue to discover geniuses, and continue to use geniuses."

For Yun Chu, the geniuses and talents that Datang had had were not unfamiliar to him. He only needed to keep digging out from his distant memories, and all the ones he dug out were geniuses and talents with a glorious future.

The Wu brothers actually went to the Yun family with two thousand strings to thank Yun Chu for beating them up and avoiding a fatal incident.

Yun Chu sent the Wu brothers away and took another look. They were really sincere in the heavy gifts sent by these two brothers. They were all good things. Two thousand guan was just a lot more.

This time, the Wu brothers made great contributions to the reconstruction and project of Nancheng. After the secret spies spread the lively scene at the handover ceremony and the people's heartfelt gratitude to the queen to Luoyang, Wu Mei was very fond of the Wu brothers. satisfy.

So much so that Wu Mei seemed to have forgotten the harm Wu had inflicted on her.

"Yunchu really didn't feel sorry for their brothers on the Nancheng project this time."

Wu Mei knelt down next to Jin Tao and carefully held one of Li Zhi's feet. Recently, Li Zhi's left foot felt a little numb.

"I have said that as long as it is a good thing that benefits the country and the people, he will only be happy to see it happen instead of obstructing it."

Wu Mei looked up at Li Zhi and said, "Your Majesty's confidence in Yun Chu is as firm as ever."

Li Zhi sighed and said, "Withdraw the manpower that monitors Yunchu. It's not good for him to find out."

Wu Mei shook her head and said: "The more trust you have, the more you need to monitor. If you encounter a small mistake, you can make it in advance and urge it to be corrected, so as not to turn the small mistake into a big mistake and there will be no chance of recovery. When the time comes, he will die." If it is destroyed, His Majesty will also be sad.

Furthermore, Chen Concubine felt that Yun Chu was not unaware that those around him were spies, but was pretending to be confused because he knew better. Look at what he is doing now, as long as he is reasonable, he will do whatever he wants.

I dare to make a bet with Your Majesty that if the spy is withdrawn, Yun Chu will be cautious in everything he does from now on.

He knew that His Majesty had always been reasonable to him. "

Li Zhidao said: "I thought he didn't like Yong Wangxian. This time, Yong Wangxian wrote a memorial to me about his relationship with Yunchu, and he was quite complimentary in his words."

Wu Mei smiled when she heard this, looked at Li Zhi and said, "Your Majesty might as well warn Li Xian more, there might be some pitfalls waiting for him to jump out of."

Li Zhidao: "Yong Wang Xian wrote down the causes and consequences in detail in his memorial. I especially appreciate his description of the prince. He said that the prince is like the rising sun. It is warm and pleasant when it is not rising. Once it rises, it will turn into a scorching sun that can burn everything.

At this time, the prince must stay away, otherwise, he will only end up being scorched. "

Wu Mei said: "Those who show kindness without expecting repayment are the most evil and evil people."

Li Zhi glanced at Wu Mei and said, "Is it possible that he is a saint?"

Wu Mei said: "I have never seen a saint."

Li Zhi said: "Master Sun, isn't Master Xuanzang a saint?"

Wu Mei said: "Everyone has something to ask for and needs, so they can't be considered saints. In this world, the only ones who can show kindness without asking for anything in return are your majesty and my concubine."

Li Zhi smiled and said: "You spent money to build some houses in Nancheng and received some praises. How dare you call yourself a saint?"

Wu Mei's expression turned cold and she said dissatisfied: "What else did Li Xian say?"

Li Zhidao: "During the moving ceremony of the people in Nancheng, Yong Wangxian was at the scene. He personally listened to the people's words of gratitude to the queen, and also personally inspected the quality of the project. For this reason, he also specially invited you in the memorial. It’s gong.”

Wu Mei continued with a cold face: "What about the but?"

Li Zhi chuckled and said: "Yong Wangxian said in the memorial that the queen should behave as a mother to the world. Building houses for the people in the front is a great kindness. However, taking profits from the commercial residences in the back is suspected of competing with the people and damaging the queen. Mother's good reputation in the world."

Wu Mei said angrily: "What does Huangkou Ruzi know? Giving favors and taking profits are two different things. How can they be confused?"

Li Zhi looked at Wu Mei and said, "I also think your little family is angry."

Wu Mei was about to explain to the emperor when a thought suddenly came to her mind. Then she looked at the emperor strangely and said, "Yunchu suddenly approached Yong Wangxian. Could it be that he was trying to gain my property?"

Li Zhi shook his head and said: "No, although Yun Chu is a guy who is determined to retaliate against others, he has been somewhat upright in his recent actions.

It shouldn't be as obscene as you think. "

Wu Mei shook her head and said, "No, the Wu brothers have been completely frightened by him. They must be transferred back to prevent their brothers from falling into any of Yun Chu's tricks."

Li Zhi laughed and said, "You are too careful."

Wu Mei said: "It's better to be careful."

Li Zhi raised his hand and touched Wu Mei's temples and said: "Yun Chu, if you trust him very much, he will repay you a hundred times. If you trust him even five points, you will really only get five points in return. If you don't trust him, you will get only five points in return." Trust me, he will really ignore your requests.

I think that since he did not harm the Wu brothers before and helped them everywhere, if you continue to use the Wu brothers, maybe he can continue to help the Wu brothers. In this way, things can be perfected.

According to my understanding of him, he has always been demanding that things be done perfectly, and hates giving up halfway. If you withdraw the Wu brothers, it means that you don't trust him, and it will be difficult to get his help again. "

Wu Mei said: "Your Majesty, please sit on the sidelines and see what my concubine's methods are."

Li Zhi smiled and said: "This is your business, I won't interfere."

Wu Mei helped Li Zhi lie down and said quietly: "Even if it's a thousand-mile horse, if it can't be used by me, what use is it for him?"

Li Zhi said: "BMW knows people, I use it very well..."

Wu Mei covered Li Zhi with a blanket and walked out of Shangyang Palace.

A cool breeze was blowing in the pavilion of the East Palace, and frogs were constantly singing in the vegetable field not far away. In front of Li Hong were seven or eight eggs-sized potatoes. This was the first harvest since the potato seeds were planted in the spring.

Li Hong put down the potatoes in his hand and said to Xu Jingzong who was sitting on the recliner: "Master, this thing has a very good future. It has been raised in fertile fields for the first time, and there have been some new changes.

If it can continue to be improved, it may become a treasure just like Yun Chu said. "

Xu Jingzong didn't care about potatoes at all. He coughed and said, "I heard that Yun Chu has been very close to Yong Wangxian recently."

Li Hong smiled and said: "Yong Wangxian is not a traitor and traitor, so what does it matter if we get closer to him?"

Xu Jingzong said: "The prince is the sun. What do you think, Your Highness?"

Li Hongdao: "It's a family thing."

Xu Jingzong said: "I thought it was from the bottom of my heart."

Li Hong was stunned for a moment and said: "Is the Grand Tutor also going to stay away from the lonely king?"

Xu Jingzong shook his head and said: "I am already very old. My body is weak and I need more sunlight on my body. Therefore, the stronger the light emitted by the prince, the warmer my body will be."
