Chapter 321 Something's not right with these little shoes?
"I'm not sure..."
After a moment's consideration, Wei Shuyu replied, "I can only say that there is suspicion."
"That doesn't make sense."
Li Shimin frowned and retorted, "Yin Hongzhi is Consort Yin's own younger brother. Consort Yin would never harm her own brother, would she?"
"Moreover, Yin Hongzhi's power in the court is growing day by day..."
"Even if she wanted to support You'er, how could she possibly throw Yin Hongzhi into the fire?"
"If the military rations issue is classified, Yin Hongzhi will never be able to recover."
indeed.
Consort Yin would not do something that would dig her own grave.
With Yin Hongzhi's current power, how could he possibly obtain it in exchange for some military rations?
"May I ask, Your Majesty..."
Wei Shuyu then asked, "Yin Hongzhi clearly knows what happened, so why does he refuse to tell the truth?"
this……
Li Shimin was also dumbfounded.
Why is that?
"In my opinion, there is only one reason why Yin Hongzhi would abandon his son and refuse to budge..."
"Consort Yin and Prince Yan!"
Li Shimin agreed with this point.
Yin Hongzhi's entire clan was wiped out, leaving him only with his son and Consort Yin and her son.
"I just don't know if she was being used, or..."
"If Your Majesty wants to know the whole story, why don't you just ask Consort Yin directly?"
Um?
Li Shimin glared at Wei Shuyu: "You brat, I asked you to investigate, and you're ordering me around?"
"Your Majesty, the inner palace is a forbidden area."
Wei Shuyu explained speechlessly, "I am not qualified to go in either."
"Don't you have the Emperor's seal?"
Li Shimin snorted coldly.
He clearly still harbors resentment about this matter.
"Even the retired emperor won't do..."
Wei Shuyu pursed his lips.
Li Yuan was known for his lustful nature, so how could Li Shimin allow him to roam freely in the harem?
If we accidentally create something interesting, that would be fun.
"snort."
Li Shimin clearly realized that this topic was inappropriate, and immediately changed the subject...
"Enough with the nonsense! I haven't even settled the score with you for forcibly searching the Underworld yet!"
Li Shimin said unhappily, "You could have informed me first, why did you act on your own?"
"Your Majesty, I would also like to inform you first."
Wei Shuyu said helplessly, "But what if the news leaks out?"
Li Shimin remained silent.
The imperial palace was the most heavily guarded place in the entire Tang Dynasty, yet it was also the place with the fewest secrets.
In the imperial palace, being a eunuch or a palace maid meant being a servant.
The men have all become eunuchs, how can they talk about loyalty?
A woman spends all her youth and can't even find a man, so how can she be expected to be loyal?
Conversely, applying eyeliner has many advantages...
First, there's money to be made.
Second, one can leverage the other party's influence to climb the ranks.
III. Dignity.
Li Shimin treated them as servants.
As an informant, you will be treated with respect.
In the palace, the truly loyal eunuchs to Li Shimin were powerful eunuchs like Wang De.
"And what about the merchants?"
Li Shimin snorted coldly: "With such a force hidden in Chang'an, do you know how many people will impeach you tomorrow?"
Wei Shuyu had many flaws.
If one doesn't work, we'll try another...
"Your Majesty, this cannot be blamed on me."
Wei Shuyu helplessly spread his hands: "Then how can I stop others from helping me?"
"You bastard!"
Li Shimin suddenly shouted: "Do you know how big the impact of your actions is?"
"If it weren't for the fact that you are Xuan Cheng's son, I would have executed you on the spot!"
Li Shimin was already considered very wise.
They also trusted the Wei family very much.
No emperor could tolerate having an uncontrollable force under his command.
"His Majesty."
Wei Shuyu raised his head, and a faint sense of remonstrance, as if about to die for his country, returned.
Li Shimin's eye twitched involuntarily.
He didn't know when it started, but he could tell what kind of fart the other person was about to say just by sticking his butt out.
Why would there be such a force in Chang'an?
"Was it brought together by your subject?"
"Or was someone instigating this?"
"The root cause is simply that the imperial court has never taken them seriously!"
"Scholars, farmers, artisans, merchants..."
"They are the lowest of the low, they have no one to lead them!"
"Anyone can go and step on them!"
"We finally earn some money, but we still have to be exploited by officials."
"How can they deal with various problems if they don't unite?"
Go to hell.
So you're blaming me now?
"What are you doing? What do you want to do?"
Li Shimin slammed his hand on the dragon table: "So you think you're the only one with a loud voice?"
"Didn't I agree to a pro-commerce policy?"
"Haven't I already established the Ministry of Commerce?"
"Haven't I already put you in charge?"
Why are you yelling?
Li Shimin was furious.
The Wei family is not fit to be loyal subjects; all they do is shout and yell in front of me all day long.
Wang Gui is still the best!
The first day I missed Wang Gui.
"Your Majesty is wise."
Wei Shuyu bowed deeply: "Your Majesty, I believe that the Tang Dynasty will become better and better."
snort.
Li Shimin snorted coldly.
Your flattery skills are not even a tenth as good as Wang Gui's.
"Let's just say these merchants did it voluntarily."
Li Shimin continued to nitpick: "What about the officials in the Ministry of Commerce?"
"They're already in Hu County, why did you bring them back here?"
Li Shimin glanced sideways at Wei Shuyu.
Let's see how you cover this up this time.
The officials in Hu County have nothing to do with this matter.
"Your Majesty, doesn't this make you look more imposing?"
Wei Shuyu spoke frankly: "This is my first time in office. If I want to keep them in check, I need to establish my authority."
Damn it.
Wei Shuyu's honest words left Li Shimin speechless once again.
Establishing authority is a normal phenomenon.
Other emperors might have found this inappropriate.
But as an emperor who rose from the ashes, Li Shimin was well aware of the importance of establishing his authority.
Moreover, Wei Shuyu was in full charge of the Ministry of Commerce.
As long as the other party doesn't make any fundamental mistakes and handles political affairs well, these are all harmless.
"never mind……"
Li Shimin waved his hand: "I won't argue with you about these trivial matters."
"Is there anything else?"
"If you don't have it, hurry back to Hu County."
Li Shimin issued an order to expel the guests.
Xiao Wei was getting annoyed day by day.
"promise."
Wei Shuyu bowed.
Before leaving, he thoughtfully instructed, "Your Majesty, don't forget to inquire about the situation from Consort Yin."
"roll!"
Li Shimin gritted his teeth.
He even dares to order me around! Little Wei's audacity is growing!
Wei Shuyu slipped away with a grin.
Another day of getting away unscathed.
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger."
Wei Zheng bowed to Li Shimin and said, "Although Shuyu is not very reliable, his heart has always been with the Tang Dynasty and with Your Majesty."
"Get out! Get out!...You get out too!"
Li Shimin was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at his son: "You two, father and son, are in cahoots!"
"Your Majesty is right..."
Wei Zheng glanced at the sky and said, "It's getting late, I should get off work."
"Your Majesty, please don't forget to investigate Consort Yin!"
"..."
Li Shimin felt extremely distressed as he watched the Wei family father and son leave.
Something's not right with these little shoes.
Why does Xiao Wei get promoted faster the more clothes he wears?
Most importantly...
These shoes don't look small at all.
Xiao Wei makes a huge fuss about everything he does.
On the contrary, Lao Wei talks about trivial matters every day.
