The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

"Take a look at this blueprint. If there are no problems, I will issue an order to let them start construction." Li Yuan said, "You can see that this venue is not small, and the amount of work is also quite large. Moreover, you need to pay attention to the height."

"Huh?" Li Shimin was puzzled.

He didn't see anything.

"The highest part of this venue is as high as three or four floors. When it is actually built, it may be comparable to the city wall of Chang'an." Li Yuan said.

"Is that so." Li Shimin pondered, "There is no problem."

"In terms of regulations, it is inevitable that there are some flaws." Li Yuan said, "If this is built, the height is still quite grand."

Li Yuan also wanted Li Shimin to think carefully about whether the blueprints should be changed again. "

"Wouldn't that be great? "Li Shimin smiled and said, "Having such a building in Chang'an City can better reflect the strength of our Tang Dynasty. Moreover, after the construction of this pavilion, the royal family, dignitaries and the people can have fun together. This is a good thing. Moreover, this pavilion can accommodate so many people. If there is any celebration or other activities in the future, it can even be held here."

Li Shimin immediately thought of the other functions of this pavilion.

"You are right." Li Yuan stroked his beard and nodded: "This height is only slightly inferior to the Taiji Palace. If it is built and completed, I am afraid that the imperial censors in the court will have something to say about the regulations."

"So my father is worried about this, it doesn't matter." Li Shimin smiled: "After all, it is not higher than the height of the Taiji Hall. ”

At first glance, Li Yuan thought that the height of the stadium was very high. If it was higher than the Taiji Palace, it would be against the rules, so he invited Li Shimin to discuss the matter with him.

Li Yuan did not know how high the Taiji Palace was, but he had lived in it for so long and did not think it was that high.

Now looking at the data marked on the drawings, the highest part of the stadium is twelve meters high.

It is as high as the city wall of Chang'an City.

It is about two meters higher than the palace wall of the Taiji Palace.

But It is the Taiji Hall of the Taiji Palace. The height is set there and cannot be exceeded.

How could Yan Lide not know this? He did not dare to make the drawings too much. He thought that if he stuck to this line, the two emperors in the palace would accept it.

Yan Lide also wanted to create a unique and magnificent arena. Who knows, it might be passed down through the ages?

As the designer of the drawings and the actual participant in the construction, if it is done well, it will be recorded in history.

"Huairen, this kid, is sticking to this line." Li Yuan smiled.

Li Shimin smiled helplessly and shook his head.

"I don't believe he can notice these details. This drawing was made by the Yan brothers. He must have seen it. Maybe the three of them had discussed it when they were on the farm. They also talked about this matter. Sending this drawing to the palace and trying it out is something Huairen can do. "

"That's fine. Even if the censor wants to make a fuss about the number of this blueprint, he can't make a big fuss. I'll just keep it down." Li Shimin smiled and said, "When the stadium is built, everyone will understand." Li Yuan nodded.

"In that case, I will order them to start construction." "Okay." Li Shimin responded.

"Yan Lide selected people from the Craftsmen Supervisor and asked them to prepare in advance. I think if there are idle people in the Ministry of Works, they can be arranged to go there." Li Yuan said, "As for the craftsmen who build the stadium, they will be recruited from Chang'an City or the surrounding areas. Priority should be given to those farmers who suffered heavy losses in the locust plague, giving them a chance to work, earn some money, and survive this year." "Does your son need to send people to assist your father and follow your orders? "Li Shimin asked cautiously.

He was afraid that if he asked this question carelessly, the emperor would suspect whether he wanted to intervene too much or even make the decision.

Therefore, he asked cautiously.

Li Yuan thought about it.

"Before meeting you, I thought about asking you for two reliable people to allocate and dispatch these things, but I thought about it carefully just now. Some old ministers in the court are idle anyway. They go to court to participate in politics. In fact, their ability to handle government affairs is average. They are old and can't keep up with the pace of the court. Just give them a chance and let them do something simple. I think this matter is not difficult. There are also drawings. There are people who control the general direction. They are professionals.

As for other complicated trivial matters, they need a lot of manpower, so leave it to those old guys. "

The language art of the emperor is three words:Give them a chance.

As for how you grasp the opportunity, it depends on your ability.

If you grasp it well, you are still a good minister of the court. Even in the new dynasty, you still have a respectable position.

If you can't grasp it, or if you don't grasp it well, even this little thing can go wrong. This shows that you are no longer able to handle the big things in the court. You should give way when you should.

Don't take up the position.

"Although they are old, they have experience in handling things. I believe they can still do these trivial matters well. Moreover, this arena is under my name, and it is also said to the outside world that Da'an Palace is doing this. Those old ministers dare not try their best?" Li Yuan smiled and said, "If they do things well, it is their job. If we are happy, we will give them some rewards and some respect.

If things are not done well, no matter what, the reason is in our hands. Erlang, you have to control this."

Li Shimin's face also became serious, and he bowed respectfully.

"Yes, I understand."

These words that the emperor taught the prince in the Wude years, Li Yuan never told Li Shimin.

They were all told to Li Jiancheng when they were alone together.

Now, although Li Shimin has become the emperor, he still enjoys the treatment of the prince in the Wude years.

Li Shimin did not think there was anything wrong, but he was somewhat relieved and happy in his heart.

The initiative of how to treat the ministers is in the hands of the emperor.

Or how to say that being with the emperor is like being with a tiger, the emperor's grace and power are unpredictable, just to make the ministers unpredictable.

If the ministers figured out the emperor thoroughly, the emperor's thoughts and preferences were clear, and everything they did was in accordance with the emperor's wishes, then it would be easy to become a flatterer.

Because the emperor's thoughts are not necessarily all right.

Or how to say that the court of the Zhenguan Dynasty needed people like Wei Zheng, and also needed people like Sun Fujia who dared to give advice.
