Then Zhang Yanshang turned his head to the emperor on the rope bed and chatted endlessly.

This was quite an abnormal behavior for him.

The emperor patiently listened to Prime Minister Zhang Yanshang's objection to the "Pingliang City Building" plan, and thought to himself: No matter what you do, I have to compromise. I want to save the locust plague. Pingliang will follow Lao Han and the others to do it. As for you, Zhang Yanshang, I will give you a step now and everyone will get what you need.

Then he directly asked Han Huan and Li Mi: "Before building a city in Pingliang, can Han Qing and Li Qing supervise the transportation of money and grain to the capital to alleviate the locust plague? Otherwise, the city building plan would inevitably be rootless wood and sourceless water."

Han Huan agreed very simply: he immediately stated that the rice dumplings from the Jianghuai region were sent to the capital, and the first batch of 600,000 stones would be delivered to the transfer courtyard in Dongwei Bridge within 20 days. In addition, he was willing to use 400,000 jin of money to serve as the money for the country to buy rice from Sanchuan and the money for the bribe.

According to Han Huan's plan, 600,000 shi of rice were given to the southeast, and Sanchuan, in addition to the hudot rice, an additional 500,000 shi of rice was purchased. Plus the patrol rice in Yingtian in the northwest was enough for the military and civilians in the Gyeonggi to overcome the difficulties.

"Your Majesty, I would like to pay another 100,000 guan to use it as 'locust money'."

"Catch locust money?" The emperor didn't understand why.

Han Huan smiled slightly and said that it was not enough to just help food, but also to destroy locusts. The capital city immediately did not care about adults or women or children, and could only kill locusts with one bucket, and give ten cents of money, and military soldiers could do it.

"Good, good!" The emperor thought this was fun, and more importantly, Han Huan and Li Mi let it go, and the stone in his heart could finally land.

This call from Xiao Yanying Palace naturally ended with Han Huan's great victory.

On the spot, Han Huan elected Liu Xuanzuo, the governor of Xuanwu Army, to serve as the new Jingyuan Xingying Jiedu, to prepare to go to Pingliang Yingcheng in the spring of the following year.

According to legend, in order to win Liu Xuanzuo's support, Han Huan privately gave him 200,000 yuan.

Liu Xuanzuo sent a generous gift to his old boss Li Mian, so Li Mian also started to operate.

When Han Huan returned to his mansion in the capital, he looked at the mountains of request letters piled up in the hall. The regular script hand he brought him was sweating profusely in autumn and winter. There was a large basin in the middle of the table, which was used for the cover, and it was already bottomed out.

"Don't go back!" he said impatiently, "this group of mediocre talents only know how to make a fuss, don't waste my house."

Then he touched his beard and said, "The bird of prey is not as tired as an osmanthus." Then he called out a famous family slave and told you to meet Li Sanqi (Li Mi) immediately, and then said that.

A few days later, in the forest of Penglai Palace in the Daming Palace, a group of middle-aged officials from Xuanhui Courtyard chattered in a low voice, hid behind the rocks and moon windows, and said, "Look at you, the saint is here!"

I saw a waterfall flying down the pavilion and rumbling, Li Shi was in front and Li Mi was behind, and the king and his ministers were talking and laughing, relaxing along the corridor, and discussing the government affairs.

"There are two saints!" One of the middle-aged officials couldn't help but sigh when they saw Li Mi's fairy style.

"Smack the mouth." Another famous official hurriedly covered the person's mouth.

But one older one smiled knowingly and said, "The two saints are right, one is Huang Saint and the other is Bai Saint."

Sure enough, the emperor was wearing a red and yellow robe and a golden crown on his head, while Li Mi was wearing a white robe and a star crown on his head. They weren’t they two saints, one yellow and one white!

"Sir, since I succeeded to the throne, I have used a lot of priests, but I have only recently remembered that their speaking styles, from my perspective, have different feelings."

"I hope to hear the details."

"Chang Gun's speech is too harsh, Cui Youfu's speech is too straightforward, and Yang Yan's speech is too arrogant. Sometimes it is common for me to talk to them, but it is unbearable."

As for those who have left the prime minister, Liu Yan, Yan Zhenqing, Xiao Xin and others who are still alive, and those who are working as prime ministers such as Xiao Fu, Zhang Yanshang, the emperor is very clever and does not comment on it.

Li Mi smiled faintly and said, "Who does Your Majesty like to listen to the most?"

"Lu Qi, when he was prime minister, I would be like a spring breeze when I was talking to him in the hall for a long time, and I would not feel tired at all."

"Hmph, this is the case again. You are still obsessed with Lu Ziliang's flattery and treacherous ministers! He said these words just to do everything possible to put Lu Qi back as prime minister." Li Mi complained in his heart, but as a practitioner of Taoism, he naturally understood the principle of "using softness to overcome hardness", so he said to Li Shi: "Lu Qi has been prime minister for only two years, but he has almost overthrew the whole world. So some people say that he is a great treacherous minister. He doesn't know much about this minister and dare not assert it."

Although I couldn't say it explicitly, the emperor was still a little unhappy and said to Li Mi: "Sir, don't listen to the wind and rain. Those ministers all talked about Lu Qi's traitor, but why don't I think he's traitor at all?"

Now you are resourceful, Li Mi, and you are not easy to answer!

If you say that Lu Qi is a treacherous minister, then you don’t give me face, which is equivalent to calling me a foolish monarch.

If you say you are just hearing about it, then I just follow the flow and give Lu Qi...

Who would have thought that Li Mi frowned and said seriously, "It is possible that this is the case. Lu Qi's traitor is as soft as water and invisible as omnipotent, so that Your Majesty does not know that he is a traitor. Chen Mi heard that the traitor of the traitor makes the Lord unable to detect his traitor, which is the great traitor."

"Uh..." The emperor was a little exhausted.

"Your Majesty, Lu Qi has been in power for only two years, but Heshuo rebelled. Changwu Shishi changed and spread all kinds of disasters in Fengtian. Regardless of whether Lu Qi is treacherous or slandered, Your Majesty has already sent him to Jizhou. Then everyone in the world knows that these evils were done by Lu Qi. If Your Majesty suddenly recalled him and entrusted him with important tasks, wouldn't the people in the world...?"

"Sir, don't say it, I know!" The emperor smiled and wiped his sweat, saying that he could move to the next topic, "By the way, I still think that someone speaks nicely."

"Oh?" Li Mi continued to be calm.

At this moment, the Hanlin scholars who were following behind him, including Duke Wei, Zheng Zhi, Lu Zhi, Yu Gongyi, etc., couldn't help but prick up their ears.

"Xingyuan Young Yin Gaoyue! Look at his words in Yanying Hall that day, which not only inspired Han Taichong, but also dispelled my concerns. Others said that he was eloquent, but how could he know how hard he worked in camping the fields and cities in various places to carefully study map strategies." The emperor took his hand and was slow.

Zheng Zi's face was so angry that he said quickly in his heart, "Why do you like to talk with Your Majesty? They are all traitors who are so traitors that the lord cannot detect their traitor!"

But then Li Mi closed his eyes, nodded long, and said to the emperor: "Wei Gao and Gao Yue can all entrusted the important task of Fang Zhen. In the past, the military, barbarians and officials rebelled, and were mostly caused by local tyrannical greed and greed. The country should use less military personnel and more Wei. Gao, a loyal minister who is capable of civil and military, soothes people's hearts and promotes the kingly way."

Zheng Zhi almost tripped by the stone slab under the curved corridor, "Hey, didn't you just say that what kind of traitor is as soft and invisible as flowing water? Why did it completely reverse the guy in the third year of high school in a blink of an eye?"
