"The Prime Minister understands the righteousness, and I am very relieved!" Liu Che sighed. In this world, it is always difficult for the monarch and his ministers to be harmonious, and for generals and prime ministers to be harmonious.?

As for his cooperation with Zhou Yafu, although there were bumps and even conflicts between the monarch and his ministers, in the end, both of them knew that the other party was not the kind of person who would corrupt state affairs for personal gain.

So, in the end, there will always be someone who compromises and gives in.

The empire's court has been able to be stable for a long time, and Zhou Yafu's role is indispensable.

Liu Che was even a little reluctant to let Zhou Yafu retire from office.

However, since the system has been established, it should be followed!

Liu Che will not destroy his own system because of his personal feelings, which is no different from digging his own grave.

"What does Your Majesty plan to do?" Zhou Yafu asked with piercing eyes. He couldn't wait to participate in this huge gamble.

Liu Che smiled slightly and said: "Prime Minister, please go to the screen and wait a moment..."

"No..." Zhou Yafu nodded, stood up with a smile.

He suddenly remembered that afternoon seven years ago, when the late emperor ordered him to hide behind the screen and observe today...

History seems to have gone through a reincarnation. Seven years later, he was now ordered to hide behind a screen and watch the changes.

…………………………

Not long after Zhou Yafu hid, a noble lady rushed into the Qingliang Palace. Several attendants and eunuchs could not stop her.

Liu Che looked up, waved his hand and said: "You all, please step back..."

"No..." The attendants and eunuchs quickly and consciously retreated to both sides. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, feeling like they had walked away from the gate of hell for once!

Because the background of this noble lady is really great!

The eldest daughter of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, the sweetheart of the Empress Dowager, the eldest daughter of the Han Empire, the biological mother of the current empress, the mother-in-law of the emperor...

So many titles are based on her.

This made her one of the most noble women in Chang'an City.

Basically, except for the Empress Dowager Donggong and Empress Dowager Bo, no woman can be more powerful than her!

Liu Che stood up and said with a smile: "What's wrong with my aunt? She's so angry..." As he said that, Liu Che ordered the eunuch beside him: "Why don't you prepare a seat for the princess?"

"Humph!" Guantao held up his skirt angrily and said, "Emperor, you have to give me an explanation today..."

Liu Che looked at Guantao, and of course he knew why she came?

However, he pretended to be confused, and after Guan Tao sat down, he asked in surprise: "What kind of explanation does Auntie want me to give?" There was a slight chill in his tone.

Guantao said angrily: "Emperor, my aunt heard that the emperor wants to rebuild the nine cities of Chang'an? Is this true?"

"Well, it does happen!" Liu Che nodded and replied calmly.

"Then why did my aunt want to buy several shops, but the young master's office didn't sell them?" Guan Tao asked angrily: "Does the young master not want to do this?"

At this moment, the princess of the empire is the domineering master of the pottery.

"Young Master Shaofu acted on my orders..." Liu Che said calmly: "Auntie, do you think what I did was right or wrong?"

This sentence immediately blocked all Guantao's words in his mouth.

"Aunt..." Liu Che stood up and said, "You are my elder and the princess of Sheji... If you rashly interfere in the affairs of merchants, I am afraid that Emperor Taizong and Emperor Renzong will lose their face. I will be ashamed of the world and my ancestors..."

"Emperor..." Guantao heard this and wanted to refute, but in the end, he could not say anything.

Indeed, she is one of the most powerful and noble women in Chang'an City and even in the world.

but……

The person in front of her now is the Emperor of Han Dynasty!

The Son of Heaven, who has received orders from Heaven, has a long and prosperous life, speaks the Constitution of Heaven, and exercises the power of life and death!

As for the Emperor Liu, every generation has the tradition of killing his own relatives!

Taizong killed his younger brother and uncle, and the late Emperor killed the King of Wu and the King of Chu.

And the son-in-law in front of him killed four cousins, imprisoned one, and deposed one.

According to rumors, even the death of King Yan Liu Dingguo not long ago was inseparable from him.

Guantao, on the other hand, is just a woman.

Moreover, she is a woman whose power and wealth all come from others.

A large part of this was given by the man in front of me.

To put it bluntly, if the son-in-law no longer gets close to and dotes on the queen, she, the so-called eldest princess, will probably be no different from her younger sisters.

She is nothing more than a princess who can bully her husband at home.

Where did today’s scenery come from?

There is no doubt that Guantao is a smart man.

And she is a smart woman without moral integrity!

When the late emperor was in power, she could help pimp her husband and pay tribute to singers and beauties regardless of propriety to please the emperor's younger brother.

And in history, in her later years, in order to make Emperor Wu smile.

This princess, at the age of sixty, cooked for Emperor Wu herself, wearing the clothes of a cook.

In order to make Emperor Wu happy, he even gave his house to Emperor Wu as a palace.

It can be said that there is no bottom line!

In recent years, Liu Che has not done much to manage Guantao.

But this does not mean that Liu Che has not attacked and restrained her.

Otherwise, how could Guantao be so good?

Although Guantao was not a smart woman, she was a qualified politician. As soon as she saw that Liu Che's face was wrong, she immediately put her anger and dissatisfaction aside and said quickly: "Since it is the emperor's wish, why didn't the emperor earlier?"

explain……"

She giggled, slightly embarrassed and found a way for herself: "Auntie, it's not because she wants to make some money to support the family..."

In Guantao's life, there are two things that she has always pursued diligently and greedily for.

One is money. In order to make money, she will do anything.

At that time, everyone in Chang'an City and even in the officialdom of the world knew that the signboard of Princess Guantao was made of gold.

After receiving the money, we will definitely do the work, and we will be honest!

Two years ago, Guantao could no longer do this kind of business.

Because Liu Che cut off all her tentacles that could manipulate government affairs and personnel.

The Eastern Palace also withdrew from power and stopped providing power to her.

This made her really uncomfortable.

It is precisely for this reason that as soon as the reconstruction plan for the nine cities in Chang'an came out, she jumped up and down to try to occupy the territory.

There is no doubt that Guantao values ​​power more than money.

This is related to her childhood and teenage experiences!

At the beginning, during the Dai Kingdom period, she suffered from poverty, poverty and powerlessness.

It is precisely because she has suffered so much that she desperately wants to seize it after she has power and wealth.

"Auntie is short of money?" Liu Che seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world!

"I remember that when Emperor Taizong was still alive, he bestowed gold every year. On his deathbed, he even gave three thousand gold, twenty million in money, and one thousand pieces of cloth..." Liu Che counted the accounts for Guan Tao with his fingers.

There is no doubt that Liu Che's grandfather doted on and loved his eldest daughter very much.

Various rewards have never been cut off.

When he was dying, the emperor gave most of the property he had accumulated to his eldest daughter.

such a pity……

Guantao never knew how to use money sparingly.

As far as Liu Che knew, the wealth given by Taizong had been spent by her long before Liu Che came to the throne.

It is said that the construction cost of just one Nagamen Garden has exceeded 20 million!

However, Guan Taotian's life was good, and after Taizong's death, Empress Dowager Dou pampered her far more than Taizong.

In addition, the late emperor was also very close to his sister.

The King of Liang also needed his sister to help him move around and speak in Chang'an.

The world's bureaucrats need Her Royal Highness the Princess' kind words even more...

"During the time of the late emperor, I heard that my aunt earned thousands of gold, tens of millions of money, cloth and silk every year, and the manor was useless..." Looking at the palace pottery, Liu Che said softly: "And after I came to the throne, the rewards and payments every year have always been the same. I have never treated you badly...Chen Xu, Chen Jiao, Aunt Sui Gong, thousands of ginseng beads, hundreds of pearls, thousands of gold, countless furs, Long Yanxiang is measured in stones..."

Liu Che sighed softly and looked at his mother-in-law: "My aunt is still short of money... Then I don't know who is rich in this world..."
