Chapter 361: Foodies are in power

"The saints are all back. These are six five-spice roast chickens. Those three of them are here to honor you."

Li Shimin lay in front of the evening desk, busy reviewing the memorial. When he heard Qian Dehai's words, he raised his head;

"Oh? The three of them are back? Arrange someone to send a few to the queen to improve it. The food in the palace has indeed become too light recently."

Qian Dehai hurried over and replied with a smile;

"You know the saint, no, the three princes all look the same. I let you loose two, I sent two to His Highness, and I left four to you. Your Erlang also sent two to Concubine Yang."

"I'm afraid it's all taught by the wet girls. According to their eight or nine-year-old children's personality, I'm afraid no one will be willing to give it to anyone.

Just talk about Li Tai. He was so greedy all day long that he wanted to swallow all the chicken bones. If his wet nurse had not disciplined him, wouldn't it be strange if he could have given him four at a time?"

"The saint said, didn't the wet nurse just tell them to discipline the princes? If these ministers do not discipline the etiquette, what else should they do?

If you don’t know how to give it to you, how could it be done by your ministers? If so, they can kill their wet nurses directly.”

Li Shimin, who was about to continue to review the memorials, suddenly asked;

"What happened to Li Dalang's banquet today? Is it successful?"

When Qian Dehai heard this, he immediately became energetic and suppressed his smile and answered;

"Your Majesty, when it comes to this, I have learned clearly. I heard that the men of several generals were fighting and fighting, and a group of men made a big feast. That was very lively.

I just barely said the beginning and couldn't continue. I knew it was this ending. I discussed a deal with a group of children, so how could I succeed?

Uncle Li saw that there was no other way, so he could only start the meal quickly and asked a group of young men to eat and drink, not cry or make trouble, and then talk about other things.

I heard from the head of the man who came back that at noon, the adults didn’t eat alcohol, and the young ones were sent away now, and they started to formally discuss. I guess there was a lot of difference, right?"

"I understand, don't be busy now. Let's arrange some food in the kitchen. If I have enough, I can discuss major issues with the two servants."

"promise."

Qian Dehai agreed and ordered the eunuchs who were serving in the study to go down to deliver the meal. He murmured in his heart that there was no arrangement to summon two servants today...

After Li Shimin used night food, he ate the whole chicken beautifully and drank two bowls of corn porridge. Then he stopped and ordered Qian Dehai;

"Send the rest to the Four Imperial Concubines, one for each person, and the remaining one to Tai Chi Palace for Aye to enjoy."

"promise."

After Li Shimin finished his instructions, he got up and took a walk back to the study room to sit down. Before long, the eunuch came in to report;

"You have reported to the saint, the two servants of Fang Du, who asked for a visit, and have been waiting outside the study."

"Prince."

"Abide by the order."

Not long after, Fang Du and the other two went side by side, greeted each other and were rewarded with him by Li Shimin. After sitting down, the two powerful men looked at each other, and it was still Fang Xuanling who spoke first;

"Report to Your Majesty, the banquet of Li Dalang in Lantian has ended. Those who go there, no matter how big or small, have returned to their residences. I will come to report to Your Majesty."

Li Shimin said with interest;

"Two my dear friends tell me carefully, how did Li Dalang and the group of half-grown children arrange it? I am curious. What other business can he do besides his secret method of eating and making a living of liquor?"

Fang Xuanling responded with a smile while stroking her beard;

"Abide by the order, Your Majesty, don't worry. I will listen to me carefully. I am afraid of delaying Your Majesty's major affairs, so I directly sent someone from the ministry to follow you.

It turned out that Li Dalang had already planned everything in his mind. Today he would just reveal some general information to everyone, and then make a rough date to travel and prepare in advance.

If you want to participate, you only need to take out silver and silk and make up the money. They also want to make some silk and silk belts and load them with tea pots.

I just didn't know the way, so I finally talked to the few side generals who had been stationed in the border defense for a while before I let the deputy generals come out."

Li Shimin knocked on the desk with one hand, and seemed a little uneasy;

"I heard what Hai said, Li Dalang only sent his two big bulls, Agui, and I have heard of those two big men.

He is a good at eating wine and meat, but this big thing is actually left to two people who don’t recognize words to take charge of the overall situation and do not understand the method of marching. Isn’t that a bit inappropriate?”

Du Ruhui asked with a smile;

"Your Majesty wants to send some sixteen guards to accompany you, and two more generals will escort them all the way?"

Li Shimin pondered for a moment before he said slowly;

"I have also led soldiers, how could I not know the tricks? If this is the best, of course, it is the best. However, the thief on the grassland is not a blind man, a fool. If he really sends a group of people out, it is a problem whether he can come back alive."

Fang Xuanling kept nodding, thought for a while before taking over the conversation;

"Your Majesty, this is true. I discussed with Keming all the way, and I felt that there could not be a son of the Sixteen Guards who appeared in the caravan.

Otherwise, it will be exposed and a big deal will be ruined. Not to mention changing the war horses of others, I am afraid that the lives of a bunch of people will be left on the vast grassland.

Therefore, according to Li Dalang's idea this time, there is nothing wrong with the overall situation, just that the two big men followers... are in charge of the overall situation. To be honest, I have no idea in my heart."

Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling and then at Du Ruhui who was frowning. The three of them looked worried. Li Shimin felt even more worried and asked tentatively;

"Keming, do you think those two guys can be competent to reopen the Silk Road?"

When Du Ruhui saw the emperor ask a question, he frowned and carefully considered the sentence;

"When I say to Your Majesty, I also thought of many details. The big bull, Agui, didn't know a word, and he was honest. When I think about it carefully, I do have many similarities with those savages.

The two of me and others also analyzed it carefully. If we send two or three officials from the Ministry of Revenue to send two or three people to make suggestions, we would be dizzy about the grassland thieves. However, when the thieves reacted, it would be a disaster immediately. Therefore, we and the two of us were also hesitant."

Fang Xuanling looked at the old partner, then looked at the emperor who nodded in agreement, and spoke in a deep voice;

"Your Majesty clearly understands that not to mention the people of the Ministry of Revenue, the three provinces and six ministries in our court can easily deal with it, and do these things beautifully and wonderfully.

However, the most taboo thing for those thieves on the grassland is smart people. If they are really sent, they will definitely cause trouble. It is better than the two of them, such as the silly and straightforward.

Your Majesty, think about it, the Li family of Lantian is an authentic Longxi family. Not everyone in the clan knows the word. According to my guess, the managers in Lantian's village are several times smarter than these two people, and there are seven or eight of them.

Why is Li Dalang so talented but not using it? He just sent two people to lead the overall situation without even figuring out the account..."

"Yes, I have been thinking about this all the time. The managers in his farm are more capable than the other, but they are famous for arranging these two big men. It's really...some..."

Li Shimin said something a little, but in the end he held back the conversation and didn't continue. Du Ruhui said directly;

"Your Majesty, I think that you can arrange for the two great generals of Qin Cheng to go to the camp of the two great generals from tomorrow.

Teach some simple military affairs in case of accidents, and do not want them to become generals in an instant, and learn only simple things.

First, prevent problems before they happen, and secondly, they can increase their vigilance, so that nothing can happen and they will be helpless.

Then, the generals who were stationed in the border would tell them more about the situation on the grassland and increase their familiarity with the grassland. Even if they went there, they probably had a note in their hearts, so please let Your Majesty know clearly.”

Fang Xuanling finished speaking as he looked at his old partner and quickly followed;

"Your Majesty, you must not send the smart people from the Ministry of Revenue to teach those abilities that are worthy of weight.

Li Dalang chose the two of them. In my opinion, the most important thing is probably that innocent nature. If you learn from each other, like those extremely smart merchants, you may have to put the cart before the horse and the gain is not worth the loss. Please consider it more."

Li Shimin is not a foolish person, so he could not think of this. He just couldn't help but wonder whether he would send a few capable people from the Ministry of Revenue tomorrow?

I'll give those two stupid guys a little a little, don't call me too stupid, I can't get a few horses back. As soon as I thought of this,

Fang Xuanling, who was the best at strategy, immediately reminded Li Shimin that he was a little hesitant in his heart, and he made a decision in an instant;

"Ah, what the two beloved ministers said is smart and decisive. I should accept it. But... I have always acted, mostly to make plans and then act, and I need to look at the overall situation. Only this time, I sent two foodies to take power without even reading the word.

I was also worried, but I couldn't think of a good idea. The restart of the Silk Road was a top priority. The court should have carefully studied and discussed it, and then decided on the details, and then selected a capable person to come forward.

However, if you act like this, you may have to go out for two or three years after discussing your ideas. Li Dalang is quite fast, but he will act in a hurry. Even if we are the three kings and ministers, we cannot take care of too much.

Forget it, forgot it, I bet on him too big. This time I will try it out, can those two fools return to their full strength... Alas!"

Seeing that although the emperor had made a decision, Fang Xuanling was still worried and quickly spoke out to persuade him;

"Your Majesty, don't worry too much. The two big bulls and Agui are indeed not very smart, but the Li County Bo from Lantian is extremely smart.

Although he was only fifteen years old, in my opinion, he was no less than the old merchant who had been doing business for life. Since he made iron pot delicacies, I have never seen him suffer any loss.

He made those wealthy and wealthy families randomly. He took away all the silver, silk and silk, but also called those who were bleeding. He laughed so hard that he couldn't stop smiling. He really sold people and had to help him count the money. His Majesty was afraid that he would suffer a loss?"

Li Shimin thought about it carefully, it wasn't that the case. He was always the only one who took advantage of it. At a young age, his family had hundreds of cars of silver, money, silk, and said it was so impressive.

What is used for capital, what is it to buy grain and millet to make wine? Even so, they still cry and complain every day. People who don’t know think they can’t even eat enough?
