Chapter 192 This is clearly a god bless the Tang Dynasty!
Li Erdu said it so straightforwardly, how could several ministers not understand.
This means...
If the Turks dare to come, please treat me well!
However, this is the default route for the Tiance Mansion team, and there is nothing to discuss. Then, Fang Xuanling talked about another thing...
"Your Majesty, a few days ago, Mr. Pei complained of illness, and I have gone to visit him in accordance with your Majesty's order... But..."
"Oh? What should I say?"
"Your Majesty, Mr. Pei is really bedridden, and he is not lying. Moreover... on the way, I met many people with five surnames and seven looks... These people seemed to have a good relationship with Mr. Pei, and
He looked very anxious..."
Saying this, Fang Xuanling was still a little nervous.
After all, Pei Ji is also an old minister and plays an important role in the court. Even a few times ago, due to various reasons, Li Er asked a large number of officials to kneel for hours outside the Suzaku Gate every morning, but he did not take Pei Ji with him.
Although there is a matter of fertilizer in the imperial garden, it seems that His Majesty still trusts and respects Pei Ji.
But at this moment, Li Er laughed directly.
"What's there to say? Don't I know that he, Pei Ji, is closely related to Qiwang, the fifth surname?"
"Then...why, Your Majesty?"
Fang Xuanling was a little surprised. Since you know everything, you still want me to visit Pei Ji?
Well...it's quite fun to see Pei Ji lively.
Anyway, I heard that this guy also hoarded a lot of refined iron, so he deserved it.
Li Er smiled, his eyes serious.
"It's not just Pei Ji, but who among these old ministers...are I not polite and polite on weekdays?"
"The result is that just because I want to exchange land for the people, just because I don't like the aristocratic families. One by one, who of them doesn't give me a stumbling block?"
"Now that Pei Ji is so angry that he is bedridden, I naturally..."
When Li Er said this, several ministers were startled and quietly raised their heads to look at Li Er.
Are you going to... take action?
Du Ruhui's eyes turned cold and he said immediately, "Your Majesty, although I am a civil servant, I do not lack some martial qualities. I am willing to fight for what is happening now!"
"Nowadays, these powerful clans don't have much stock in their hands. I am willing to bring 30,000 soldiers and horses to defeat the five surnames and seven hopes!"
Wei Zheng, Li Jing, and Fang Xuanling also followed immediately.
"Your Majesty, I am also willing to ask for a fight!"
"Your Majesty, I am willing to march forward for Your Majesty!"
"I second the proposal! Your Majesty!"
After asking for a fight, Li Er laughed.
"What are you guys doing? You just knelt down all of a sudden. I didn't say what you were going to do. Really."
"Ah? Your Majesty didn't mean..."
Du Ruhui raised his head in confusion, and then saw Li Er waving his hand.
"Where are you thinking? It's not impossible to operate on the noble family at this time. But... I always feel that this method is not thorough enough."
"Not thorough enough? Your Majesty, if a lowly minister takes action, he will definitely not let any of them escape!"
"is not what it means."
"We won't discuss this today. Anyway, Xuanling, remember, I asked you to visit Pei Ji because..."
"I don't want anyone to come to me to plead for favors with seniority, age, favors, etc., so that I can be more open-minded!"
"If they dare to hoard refined iron, they will have to pay the price for me!"
Everyone was horrified.
Damn it, Your Majesty is really angry this time.
A moment of silence for all of the five surnames and Qiwang...
But think about it, if he were Li Er, he would have sent troops to various places to clean up the powerful, or simply joined them if they couldn't defeat them, followed the example of the Supreme Emperor and joined them.
That is, Li Er, no, that is, Li Er gave birth to an extremely powerful prince, and he finally made a comeback today.
If there was no eldest prince, I'm afraid Li Er...
Or, start a war within the newly unified Tang Dynasty, giving the Turks an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Or simply become a fool and hang out with people like the Five Surnames and Qiwang.
Now that the eldest prince has made a comeback, even if the clay figurine is still a bit earthy, let alone Li Er, a man with great martial virtues?
Naturally, it is impossible to give any chance to beg for mercy.
The highest level of conflict is called war, and the highest level of war is called "refuse to surrender"!
But they are a little confused, now...
Since Qiwang's family of the fifth surname has no food.
Then why not take them down directly? Anyway, it is difficult for them to really rebel, so this big worry can be considered relieved.
Wouldn't it be nice to just rush them all at this time?
In fact, Li Er didn't even think about this problem.
"I still need to think about this issue carefully. But right now, this group of people can no longer afford to make trouble. Let's get ready. Soon we should..."
"Your Majesty! I understand!"
"Your Majesty! I understand!"
"Your Majesty! I understand!"
…
The whole of Chang'an has simply exploded in the past few days.
Breaking news spread one after another in the streets.
First, the price of refined iron in the world skyrocketed overnight.
There was a shortage of iron everywhere, and for a moment it seemed that there was no refined iron available in the entire Tang Dynasty.
The people complained.
As a result, suddenly... stainless steel was born!
It is far harder than ordinary fine iron. The fine iron in the past is like soft mud in front of this material called "standard steel".
This fine steel appeared and the price was not high, so everyone was excited. However... within a few days, the standard steel on the market disappeared.
The common people can only look forward and sigh, thinking about how to grow autumn crops, and despair...
However, not long after, suddenly...
His Majesty announced that all standard steel will be sold at the price before the price increase!
Even lower...
When they first heard the news, everyone in Chang'an was in disbelief.
But soon, official shops selling standard steel began to sell them in various prefectures and counties throughout the Tang Dynasty.
At first, the people were still worried whether such high-quality and cheap steel utensils would be taken away immediately by those rich and wealthy households.
After all, according to the life experience of the Chinese people for many years, can the good things come to ordinary people?
It is definitely going to be bought up by rich households.
At first, it was true that many wealthy households acquired these ironware.
What makes the people despair is that the authorities do nothing to stop this hoarding behavior...not even a gesture.
Whoever comes with the money to buy it will sell it directly!
But soon, they discovered...
No matter how aggressively wealthy households everywhere purchase, the supply of standard steel... remains as stable as ever!
It's like it fell from the sky.
Such a magical thing really happened before our eyes.
It didn't take long for the entire iron supply gap in the Tang Dynasty to be completely filled.
Moreover, new standard steel tools are still flowing into the people...
The people of Tang Dynasty were simply ecstatic about this phenomenon.
Li Er's steel-making blast furnace is simply praised...
This was clearly a divine oracle that gave Li Er the skill of making iron in the blast furnace, thus blessing the Tang Dynasty!
