Chapter 240 Take it for granted(1/2)
When Li Tai returned to the Yan Prince's Mansion, he did not immediately attract everyone to say that he was going to move to Gaoling.
After all, such things are too much, and I am just a normal vassal king to return to my fiefdom, not to flee back to Youzhou.
The first thing I do when I get home is naturally to go to the study and write a diary first and always maintain effective communication with my Aye. This is the right attitude to solve the problem.
Of course, Li Tai did not complain too much in his diary. He just expressed his disappointment about his inability to continue to participate in the "Seed Plan" and felt uncomfortable about his father's injustice to his father's importance to Li Chengqian and his contempt for himself.
In the end, I was still not excellent enough and not worthy of Aye’s attention!
Of course, I just clicked until I didn't continue writing, but just mentioned that I planned to return to Youzhou.
After Li Tai sighed in his heart, he went back to his room and didn't even go to eat dinner, so he fell asleep.
Bai He entered and exited the study normally and processed waste paper. Li Tai's diary today also came to Li Shimin's hands.
Li Shimin looked at Li Tai's heart-wrenching words and just snorted and didn't say much.
And early the next morning, Li Tai continued to exercise in the morning as usual, but unfortunately he had a slightly 100 million points of his body, which made him prone to gain weight. He had to maintain at least one hour of exercise every day, otherwise his body would naturally expand.
When I was eating all kinds of seafood beef, I could already determine my physical condition very clearly.
When he was dancing various swords and guns, tempering his body, doing his morning homework, and preparing to go for breakfast, Li Tai did not expect that Fang Xuanling came to the door, which made Li Tai stunned.
Li Tai immediately let Fang Xuanling come in, saluted Fang Xuanling respectfully, and said, "Fang Xiang, I haven't used breakfast yet, so why not come and have a meal together?"
Li Tai didn't care what Fang Xuanling was here to do, but as long as Fang Xuanling had a meal with him today, he was afraid that Li Chengqian wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
Anyway, I am leaving, so even if I am disgusted with Li Chengqian.
"Does King Yan use breakfast at this time?" Fang Xuanling raised his head and looked at the sun in the sky.
Fang Xuanling is already a third-rank or above, and no longer needs to attend the morning court every day. When there is almost no major event, just go to the court on the first, fifteenth, and twenty-one of each month.
Of course, it is said in theory. In fact, Fang Xuanling, the leader of all officials, should set an example.
In addition, Fang Xuanling himself is also a relatively responsible person, so he often goes to court with a group of unlucky guys.
This group of people is almost the fifth rank or above, and they are worshipped by the two provinces, the censor, the Yuanwailang, and the doctor of Taichang, and are also called the Changshenguan.
Generally, these officials get up at 3 o'clock in the middle of the night to dress and enter the palace gate at 5 o'clock in the morning.
Basically, I just made some food to deal with it. I didn’t like Li Tai. The sun was rising and I came to have breakfast.
Of course, it’s okay that Fang Xuanling’s house is in a yard not too far from the palace, and it’s okay that he has his own house.
But even if some poor children from Chang'an have become officials, if they don't have a house in the local area, they will be afraid that they will run into the palace with their energy to eat when the morning drum is ringing and the door is opened.
If it is not raining or snowing, you should be able to run to the palace gate on time and then use the fish talisman to check in to work.
The so-called fishing may just come here.
No matter what, when the sun has risen, it is not the time to have breakfast.
Li Tai explained that it was a habit to get up in the morning to exercise for an hour and then go to have breakfast, and invited him:
"I'm also invited to the house to not mind the simple food in the Prince Yan Mansion. Let's have some breakfast together."
Fang Xuanling didn't finish what Li Shimin told him to tell him, so he turned around and left.
Those who really do this are probably called Xiao Yu, not Fang Xuanling.
At this moment, Fang Xuanling smiled humbly and said, "It is rumored that the chefs of the Prince of Yan's Mansion know how to eat the most, especially the pasta. The Prince of Yan's Mansion is the purest, so Fang took advantage of the Prince of Yan's Mansion."
"That room, don't be polite. If you can come, my Yan Prince's Mansion will shine!" Li Tai said politely.
Of course, the buffet model is also relatively novel for Fang Xuanling. He chooses the items he likes, including Linglong crystal cake, golden shrimp dumplings, and even the jiang rice I got from the south, and also drinks tofu brain, soy milk, millet porridge, etc.
This meal was quite rich. Fang Xuanling ordered a small bun, a bowl of lean egg porridge, and a portion of sauerkraut. Seeing that there were so many meals, he looked at Li Tai with curiosity.
"There are so many food left, you can't finish it, King Yan, right?"
Li Tai said, "Please rest assured. Although I like extravagance, I do not advocate waste. After we get food, the servants of the Prince of Yan's Mansion will come here to get food.
I have set a rule that no one can waste food and take as much as they can.
If waste food is found, then whip it five times to serve as a warning. After all, food comes from hardships!"
"The King of Yan governs the mansion, but he is equally lenient and strict!" Fang Xuanling praised Li Tai, and started to eat slowly.
Because Li Tai doesn’t like to eat thin-skinned Xiaolongbao, but prefers to eat thick-skinned Xiaolongbao.
So from the outside, these small buns look more like real buns.
At this moment, Fang Xuanling bit her and clearly felt an indescribable layer of elasticity in the small bag.
As I bit off this elastic layer of meat, the broth wrapped inside suddenly exploded from my mouth.
The contact between my taste buds and the soup exploded in my mouth in an instant, making people clearly enjoy the surprises brought by the food.
Fang Xuanling took such a bite of meat bun, but he took half of it and took the other half to take a closer look.
I have to say that this meat bun is very exquisite. The soup in my mouth should have flowed all over the floor, but in fact, the bread around me keeps absorbing the soup flowing out and firmly locking the corresponding moisture.
Fang Xuanling couldn't help but smile bitterly. Although he knew that the King of Yan's life was extravagant, or that the King of Yan had never concealed his extravagantness.
But he didn't expect that Li Tai would specialize in food research, which made Fang Xuanling couldn't help but wonder whether it was the right choice to let Li Tai become a grain supervisor.
Although I believe that Li Tai will not embezzle, I even more doubt that Li Tai can tolerate the food along the way!
"Fang Xiang, but this little dumpling is not satisfactory. If so, I will ask someone to get some golden shrimp dumplings!"
Li Tai looked at Fang Xuanling and took a bite of the small bag, and then sat there blankly, unable to help but speak.
Hearing Li Tai's words, Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "The food in the Yan Prince's Mansion is indeed full of color, fragrance and taste. Just this small mouthful makes me a little addicted, lose my composure, lose my composure!"
"Join Xiang likes it, just eat it!" Li Tai said to Fang Xuanling.
After Fang Xuanling finished eating, he expressed his gratitude to Li Tai again.
Li Tai, as usual, ate three dumplings of Xiaolongbao, nine buns, two bowls of eight treasure porridge, and also ate a chicken leg, drank a bowl of noodle soup, and then ate an eight-point full.
Li Tai is a martial arts practitioner, especially those who have become qi. It is normal for him to eat a little bit.
Originally, people just draw nutrition from food, let alone Li Tai eats after morning exercise, so naturally he has a billion more food.
Fang Xuanling looked at Li Tai's appearance at eating, and then looked at Li Tai's well-proportioned and not fat figure, which made Fang Xuanling feel that perhaps everyone underestimated King Yan. He dared to invite the prince of Youzhou to himself, and he was somewhat confident.
But Li Tai did not expect that Fang Xuanling could judge his strength from the amount of food he had eaten.
But it doesn’t matter if Li Tai is known. After all, compared with individual combat effectiveness, his own internal affairs ability is the most important.
After dinner, Li Tai invited Fang Xuanling to the living room. After officially serving tea to Fang Xuanling, Li Tai respectfully said to Fang Xuanling, "See Fang, what's the matter with you when you are here to look for me this time?"
"I have recommended to the saint that the King of Yan governed the grain supervisor for the attack on Tuyuhun this time, and was responsible for supervising the delivery of grain and grass for the National Fortune.
Because King Yan, you are good at dealing with relationships with foreign races, if Li Pushe can really capture the land of Tuyuhun, King Yan, you will be responsible for appeaseing the people of foreign races."
Fang Xuanling explained the reason and added, "As King Yan said, any implementation of the Grass Plan requires not only our efforts, but also the cooperation of foreign races.
So it is still necessary for you to personally go to Tuyuhun’s territory. After all, the grass planting plan is related to my 100th anniversary plan of the Tang Dynasty, and this matter is almost impossible!”
"Qingque understands that this is Qingque's ambition, but Aye may not let the army go to war!" Li Tai sighed.
"Please rest assured that the saint will persuade you. When you go to Tuyuhun, your name will inevitably be there when you go to Tuyuhun!"
Fang Xuanling heard Li Tai's sigh and said seriously to Li Tai.
"If so, as the grain supervisor, how many soldiers can I bring over?" Li Tai asked again, "In this way, I will do my best to deal with it!"
Fang Xuanling heard this and smiled, "Your personal soldiers can naturally be brought over. In addition, the grain supervision officers usually have about a thousand people, responsible for supervising the operation of grain, and sometimes even need the grain supervision officers to distribute grain in person.
However, for specific matters, you can wait until the edict is issued and asked Li Pushe. After all, you are under his command.
So I think I can prepare as much as possible for the supplies you need!"
"Thank you for your advice!" Li Tai immediately expressed his gratitude to Fang Xuanling when he heard Fang Xuanling's words.
Li Tai hesitated for a moment, but said to Fang Xuanling, "Can you allow me to ask more questions?"
"You want to ask why I recommend you as the grain supervisor!" Fang Xuanling said with a smile when he heard Li Tai's words.
"Fang Xiang Ruizhi, but he saw through what I was thinking at first glance!" Li Tai nodded and said.
"The King of Yan is a person who serves the country and the people. Fang Xuanling, I, only recommended a prince who serves the country and the people. What's wrong with this!"
Fang Xuanling said to Li Tai with a kind face, "After all, King Yan, you are now a pillar of my Tang Dynasty!"
Li Tai did not expect that Fang Xuanling would praise him like this, but he made him feel very proud!
However, Li Tai was not disgusted by Fang Xuanling's praise, but looked at Fang Xuanling and said,
"Fangxi, it is my wish to conquer Tuyuhun, but I am really worried about my industry in Chang'an.
Then, please help me take care of my industry in Chang'an, so that when I come back, I find that the industry is gone!”
Li Tai was sure that the news that he had successfully followed Li Jing to Tuyuhun would make the prince very afraid.
It would be easy to say that the Prince's "Seed Plan" could be implemented smoothly before he came back. If it was not implemented smoothly, his own industry might be affected for no reason.
Instead of doing this, it would be better to take advantage of this time to find Fang Xuanling as a shield.
Of course, if he had returned to Youzhou in shame, the prince might not have vented his anger against his own industry. But now he is following Li Jing to fight, even if he is just a grain supervisor who is inspecting the operation of money and grain, he will probably be hated by Li Chengqian when the meritorious destruction of the country comes.
After all, since ancient times, there has been no such thing as warfare.
