The Jia family's houses were demolished and rebuilt, and the two brothers rented a house in Daodefang to live in.

"Ping An, I said I'll do it for half a year!" Yang Deli was a little reluctant and moved many jars and jars back and forth.

"It's half a year." Jia Ping'an doesn't care, he just spends money like flowing water, which makes him feel a little headache.

Gao Yang is here again.

Her pony whip was inlaid with a few gems, and the aura of the nouveau riche made Master Jia envious.

"The emperor is poor."

The emperor is poor.

After gritting his teeth and giving 25,000 guan, it was reported that the emperor did not eat dinner.

The prime ministers asked for a visit.

After a wink, Li Ji stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the construction of the Yangji Court... I think it should be the affairs of the Secretariat. I did not realize the disadvantages of the elderly and the elderly, and I was guilty. I beg Your Majesty to take back the order and pay the money from the court."

Changsun Wuji smiled and said, "Yes! Your Majesty has issued 25,000 treasurys of treasury, which is not easy... I have all felt Your Majesty's compassion for the people. But it is not easy in the palace. It will cost a lot of money to pass the death of the late emperor. It will cost a lot of money to change the throne next year. It will be better to pay the money from the court."

Li Zhi's nose felt sore and he couldn't help feeling sad.

After the death of the late emperor, there were too many places for him to spend money, but since he said the matter of the Shangyuan Court, how could he regret it?

The so-called "Your swears" is about prestige.

As an emperor, your every word and action is eye-catching, and you must practice what you say. Repent today and change tomorrow... Everyone will know that what the emperor said does not work.

This consequence is far more serious than the 25,000 guan, so even if Li Zhi has tears, he has to swallow it himself.

"I have decided on this matter and I will take a closer look at it everywhere. If someone uses this to make a living, he will be punished severely!" Li Zhi thought of Wang coming to find him last night, and he looked respectful, and he couldn't help but feel funny.

I was clearly heartbroken, but I wanted to say something... Your Majesty is kind, and I am happy...

Xiao was obviously much more direct, and said with a frown that he would have to live a hard life for a while.

If you have a hard life, just a hard life.

Li Zhi stood up and said, "It's not because I'm doing it. That day I...forget it. You all can follow me and go and have a look."

The prime ministers looked at each other, and Yu Zhining said, "Your Majesty, I still have a lot of political affairs..."

The emperor and the prime minister sit down and discuss this, which is the characteristic of this period. The ministers have something to say directly, without the restraint and caution of later generations.

Li Zhi said seriously: "I think you should go and take a look and then you will know what you think."

Well, everyone went out with the emperor.

"Go to change clothes." Li Zhi himself returned to the harem, so naturally there were eunuchs and palace maids changing clothes for him, but the ministers...

"Your Majesty, where are you going to take us?" Chu Suiliang felt that the emperor was a little strange.

Changsun Wuji shook his head, "Look, let's talk about it."

Later, the monarch and ministers changed into plainclothes and gathered in the imperial city, and then went out.

Li Zhi led the way in front and went straight to Dongshi.

Chu Suiliang whispered: "How come Your Majesty is familiar with the world... I've seen that I have been to Dongshi recently?"

Officials above the fifth rank are not allowed to enter the market, this is the rule.

But the emperor brought the prime ministers in swagger.

“East City is becoming more and more prosperous.”

"Yes! Look at the merchants and the guests, like crucian carp trees crossing the river, which shows how prosperous the Tang Dynasty is now."

Although the prime ministers look down on businessmen, they do not prevent their families from doing business and making money. This is both deceiving and standing.

Li Zhi suddenly stopped and everyone followed.

“Look at there.”

Everyone looked at his arms and saw a few beggars.

"Isn't that a beggar?" Chu Suiliang regretted it as soon as he said that.

"Yes! That's the beggar." Li Zhi said: "Look at them, in such a cold day, they can only hide under the eaves. If a kind-hearted person gives a few cents, it would be a great joy... But not someone gives money every day, and they can only be frozen and hungry in those days...I..."

Changsun Wuji felt that the emperor's voice was wrong, so he took a step forward.

"Phiz Slave!"

Everyone felt something was wrong, and when they looked forward, they were shocked to find that the emperor was actually in tears.

"I remembered when I was a child." Li Zhi wiped his tears, "At that time, I was left alone in the palace. When several brothers met occasionally, they would touch my head like a dog... Later, they became the crown prince, and I and Yizi were raised by the late emperor. The late emperor was busy, and I and my sister depended on each other every day..."

Everyone saw a little girl huddled in a boy's arms and shivered.

"After I ascended the throne, I thought of everything, but I forgot what the late emperor said... putting people first."

He strode over.

The little girl was trembling by the wind, and suddenly felt that there was no wind. She looked up happily, "Brother, there was no wind."

The boy looked up with her and looked at Li Zhi who blocked the wind.

"Where are parents?"

Li Zhi was young and looked at the kindness. The boy said, "Aye and Ah Niang have gone."

"Then why don't you go to join your relatives?" Chu Suiliang's question came from behind.

Changsun Wuji shook his head and signaled him not to speak.

If there are relatives who can defect to you, how could these two children appear here?

Li Zhi reached out to touch the girl's dirty face and turned around and said, "It's cold, these children... find a place for them to go, and go back and wait until the Yangjianyuan is built before sending it."

The prime ministers also understood the emperor's mind and turned out to be compassionate to the people.

The emperor sympathized with the people, and this was the appearance of a wise ruler, and the prime ministers were all very happy for a while.

Then the monarch and his ministers took a walk around the East City.

Chu Suiliang suddenly let out a cry, and everyone followed his eyes...

Xu Jingzong!

Old Xu was wearing plain clothes and talking to the merchant in a daze. Chu Suiliang whispered: "I'm afraid I'm not here to buy things."

Fifth-rank officials are not allowed to enter the market. Lao Xu is the governor of Yongzhou and has a top-ranked level and has passed this line long ago.

Li Zhi's face turned dark, thinking that this confidant really didn't fight for her today, and she was caught at the scene.

"Call him."

Li Zhi stood behind his back, and Tang Xu, who was accompanying him, quietly passed by.

"Mr. Xu!"

"Stop making trouble!" Xu Jingzong was asking for the price, but when he heard someone shouting, he just ignored it.

Tang Xu patted his shoulder again, "Mr. Xu!"

You're not finished yet, are you?

When Xu Jingzong turned around, he saw that it was Tang Xu, he thought of the emperor in his heart.

His eyes swept ahead and saw a group of familiar old men, plus a familiar back.

"Go away." Old Xu rushed over quickly, and Tang Xu rushed over so slowly that he almost caught up with him.

"You... I've seen your husband." Lao Xu changed his words quickly.

Chu Suiliang sneered at him: "Why did you come to Dongcheng?"

They saw this matter and it was impossible to be good. If the emperor did not deal with Lao Xu, it would be necessary to turn back the imperial censor's impeachment.

Xu Jingzong raised his head to him, which was disdainful. Then he came to the emperor and smiled and said, "Mr., every winter, the food and vegetable prices in Chang'an City will change and rise. I came here specially today and asked each family..."

He took out a few pieces of paper and a charcoal pen.

Li Zhi took the paper and saw that it was full of records of various rice, grain and vegetable prices, which were very detailed.

"Xu Qing is intent."

Several prime ministers felt disgusted, especially Chu Suiliang, who felt that he had been slapped by Lao Xu.

"What's the use of recording this kind of thing?" What Chu Suiliang talked about the most was calligraphy. As for his political achievements... he hugged his uncle Changsun Wuji tightly and ascended all the way.

Although Lao Xu was also hugged, he could do some practical things, so he naturally looked down on Chu Suiliang.

Lao Xu is a person who works directly and looks down on you, so he won’t give you any face. He often squeezes you for a few words, which is a good player in attracting hatred.

So after a while, the relationship between him and Chu Suiliang naturally became worse and worse.

So Xu Jingzong glanced at him sideways and said, "Why should I tell you?"

Invincible!

Li Zhi's cheeks twitched, thinking that his confidant was really vulgar in doing things, but why did I feel so happy!

Chu Suiliang didn't expect that Lao Xu turned against him on the spot and said lightly: "If it doesn't work, it won't work. Why don't you pretend to understand?"

Lao Xu knew nothing about prices, and the prime ministers present knew this.

Xu Jingzong felt that he was despised, "Write down the daily price, gather it together to analyze it, and finally get the results. Based on this, the court can know the changes in the entire Tang Dynasty..."

Chu Suiliang looked admiring, "How do you know?"

I don’t know about you, Xu Jingzong?

Old Xu is indeed very good at literary talent, but he is playing with people's livelihood...

This is as ridiculous as the weasel caring about the lives of chickens and ducks.

Xu Jingzong wanted to speak but stopped and got stuck.

Changsun Wuji smiled at the corner of his mouth, thinking that this scene was so funny, and his depression a few days ago improved a lot.
