"Fourth brother, you may not know that although you have left the money house of the Internal Affairs Office, Jia Qiang and his younger brother are planning to open another money house and are also preparing to make coal."

Li Xuan had a rare smile on his face and said seriously to Li Shi.

Li Shi laughed and said, "Fifth brother, Xishan Coal Mountain, involves Feng Shui dragon veins. Except for the Tianjia Interior Affairs Office, no one else can move. Even if you are, it won't work."

Li Xuan shook his head and said, "If you don't touch that, the Interior Affairs Office originally didn't plan to pick much there. As the fourth brother said, there is a dragon vein, who dares to move? In addition to the West Mountain, Jia Qiang and I bought several coal mountains in Hulu County, Zhending Prefecture, Zhili, and we produced very well. It was only 600 miles away from Beijing, and we could get more than 100 miles of deer, which would make up for the shortcomings of the West Mountain. Although there were waterways blocked, we were also planning to let people dredge it, such as Wuzhang River on the right side of Huai. After opening, ship transportation will be frequent, and the coal harvest from Zhending Prefecture can reach Beijing."

Li Shi was not angry but happy when he heard this, and said, "This is a good thing. Jia Qiang really has an idea!" As he said, he changed his subject and said, "Fifth brother, let's discuss and discuss. You said that Jia Qiang has many ways to make money. His Yunjin is more expensive than gold. There is also an ice room. A piece of ice that is square in five square meters is five taels of silver. I heard that he only sold a mountain of gold in Jiangnan for only one summer this year. This is not your car dealership... You can't just ask him to make money by himself, right?

Besides, he, a minister, needs so much money for what?

Fifth brother, let Jia Qiang give up the coal business.

Don’t be anxious first, I heard from my brother… This business is not what I want from my brother, it is from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, from the Emperor, and from the country!

Speaking of which, Jia Qiang is not a loss. The Tian family’s honor and favor for him is rare since ancient times.

With the queen of mother, his status is not even worse than that of you and my brothers. Isn’t that enough? Now I’m not too much to let him express his feelings and give in to half a step?

Fifth brother, the court is difficult. As princes, we cannot just think about ourselves.”

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He used great principles to suppress others with morality and righteousness, and he was still a bit far from Li's time difference...

Li Xuan blinked and looked straight at Li Shi.

Of course, he knew that Li Shi was talking nonsense, but he couldn't find a good excuse to refute it for a while, so he could only look back at Queen Yin.

Queen Yin almost laughed angry. She heard Li Xuan swearing "Baoba" until she finished it. She also felt that her son was not only a little clever, but also a little wise.

As a result, Li Shi was fooled by his deception...

But it’s my own flesh and blood, how can I see someone coaxing me as a fool?

She looked at Li Shi and said, "Son, this matter is not a failure, but the key is not your fifth brother, nor even Jia Qiang. Do you know who the difficulty lies?"

Li Shi thought for a while, his face slightly a little solemnly, and he said, "My mother, are you talking about... Lin Ruhai?"

Queen Yin smiled and shook her head and said, "No, although Lin Ruhai is difficult to solve, it is not impossible to solve. It's just that Lin Ruhai said harsh words to your father and the major military officers. The emperor recognized it, and even the censor Han Cong, Han Bin, Zuo Xiang, Zhang Gu, and Li Han recognized it. Emperor, do you know what Lin Ruhai said?"

Li Shi looked ugly and squeezed out a strong smile and said, "Lord Lin is loyal to the country, and state affairs should be the priority..."

Yin Hou shook his head and said, "Lin Ruhai said that from that day on, the affairs of the Money House of the Interior Government will have nothing to do with Jia Qiang. Jia Qiang will not break up behind the scenes, but the court should not bother Jia Qiang with the affairs of the Money House of the Interior Government of the Interior Government. The emperor, Lord Lin is indeed loyal to the country, and Jia Qiang also puts the overall situation of the new policy first and the country and the common people first.

But the world is not Lin Ruhai, nor Jia Qiang. Why can the court make people suffer losses and dedicate again and again?

Jia Qiang had already made great achievements and had not received any rewards. Not only did he not give them any rewards, he also deprived him of the money house of the Internal Affairs Office and gave up the errands of the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Do you think it is appropriate to ask him for a prescription at this time and let him take the overall situation as the key to give in three feet?

Prince, you have not discussed this matter with the emperor and the ministers of military affairs yet?"

Li Shi shook his head with a serious expression and said slowly: "I want to wait until I ask my fifth brother what I mean, and then I will talk about it after I get the prescription..."

Queen Yin sighed and said, "Son of the Emperor, your identity is no longer as usual. Some things are just to be cautious in words and actions. Who is Lin Ruhai? As a person, he spoke in front of the imperial court and received the answer from the emperor and the military. After just one day of turning around, you want to find out what Jia Qiang is in his hands? Who did you give you the idea? This is clearly a matter of harming you! If you really do this, where will the faces of the Emperor and Wuying Palace be placed?"

When Li Shi heard this, he was shocked. After thinking about it carefully, he took a breath and felt cold sweat soaked out on his body.

He bowed deeply and said to Queen Yin: "If Queen Mother hadn't been alert, my son would have almost let me... Queen Mother!"

As he said that, Li Shi felt that bowing was not enough, and knelt on his knees and said in a deep voice: "My son thanks me for helping me! My son is frivolous and just wants to build the money house of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and not give it to my father and queen. Unexpectedly, it almost caused a big mess!"

Queen Yin laughed softly and said, "Get up, although you were not born for me, you were raised by me personally. Now that Li Yao has succeeded, Li Xiao is the end of this. I sincerely hope that you can go on steadily and not blindfold your eyes for a temporary benefit. Let's go..."

After repeatedly agreeing to thank him, Li Shifu patted Li Xuan on the shoulder before saying goodbye and leaving.

Judging from his expression, it is obvious that someone around him will be unlucky...

After Li Shi left, Li Xuan looked quite upset and ashamed.

Queen Yin knew the reason and smiled and said, "Your fourth brother was smart and had been in the six ministries to observe politics. They were all dealing with elites. How can you compare these words? However, with these means, you may be a high-ranking official and a powerful minister, but you cannot be the real foundation of the country. Your father didn't like such means a few years ago, so he was not very enthusiastic about your fourth brother. Now, there is no way...

Wu'er doesn't have to be ashamed of himself. Li Shi can't do what you can do. And what you can do is much more precious than his."

Li Xuan was happy when she heard this and asked in a low voice: "Mother, my son is better than my fourth brother, but can I make money?"

Queen Yin looked at him angrily and said, "What's that? If you have Jia Qiang's part, it would be... Your most precious thing is to be pure and filial to others."

Li Xuan laughed and said, "Mother, my son is filial to my father and emperor. My mother is responsible for being sincere and not worthy of praise. Sincerity to others...and who will be different. Only my son thinks they are good people, but my son is sincere. For example, Yin Hao and Jia Qiang, they are both good people. Others, my son is impatient with them." After a pause, he said, "Mother, why don't you wait for the fourth brother to wake up after falling down and tell him these things before you wake up?" As he said, his face still had some bad intentions.

Queen Yin spat and said, "That's your fourth brother, how can I watch him fall?"

Li Xuan curled his lips and said in a slight manner: "Yesterday he asked Jia Qiang to do things with him. Why didn't he think that Erchen was his younger brother? Although Erchen treats people well, he is not a fool. Today he is still here to criticize Erchen, so Erchen wants to see him pick him up!"

Queen Yin said with a funny look: "Speaking about children again, go home quickly. Mrs. Qiu is about to give birth, you see that the sky is not in the family."

Li Xuan scratched his head and said, "Jia Qiang's wife also gave birth to children. He was much more treacherous than Erchen. He sent him to Yangzhou early, and was not upset. Qiu was pregnant with a child and became like his ancestors. Erchen was impatient to serve him. If it weren't possible, Erchen would also want to arrange a boat to send him to Yangzhou..."

"Damn it!"

Upon hearing this, Yin Hou raised his face and scolded, "Don't talk nonsense! Jia Qiang sent his concubine to Yangzhou to calm her heart so that she could rest in peace and give birth. A woman gave birth to a child is like passing a gate of hell. Qiu is a good man, you used to love her, what's wrong now?"

Li Xuan laughed dryly, found a casual ritual, and then left the palace in shame.

After he left, Yin Hou's beautiful pretty face became gloomy.

Li Shi lied to Wille Li Xuan in front of her, and regarded himself as a quasi-president tone, and was a Li Xiao's face again!

That position is too expensive and heavy, and a person with a low fate cannot support it.

If you force yourself to get involved, you will easily become scattered and lose your self-knowledge.

Even Li Xuan, who had always kissed several brothers, was angry. How could Queen Yin not be angry?

But he couldn't deliberately not remind Li Shi as Li Xuan said, and let Li Shi fall into the pit.

The reason is very simple. Now that Li Shi has entered the eyes of Emperor Long'an, his words and deeds, at least any recent actions, will be under the gaze of Emperor Long'an.

Including Li Shi coming to Fengzao Palace for help...

If she intends to indulge or guide her, she will inevitably be very evil in the eyes of the emperor.

She can't lose power, otherwise how can her two princes be at peace?

That's why she kindly awakened Li Shi.

After all, even if she doesn't say it, the emperor will definitely calm down Li Shi.

But she wakes up these words, so many things are different...

...

East of the Imperial City, Ten Kings Street.

Kerong County Prince's Mansion.

In the study, Li Shi's face was not as regretful, alert and self-blame as he had when he was in Fengzao Palace, but said with a full face: "My mother is still a fair, wise, and virtuous mother, Master Ci'en, Mr. Qiuchi, and Mr. Lilian, can you rest assured about these?"

Mr. Qiuchi nodded and smiled, "It's really unexpected. The virtue of the queen is rare in ancient and modern times."

Mr. Lilian shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It is already unfilial for us to instigate your highness to test your mother with your son. All the sins are on us. Please punish your Highness."

Li Shi hurriedly stood up, helped Mr. Lilian, who was bowing and bowing, and said warmly: "It must not be done like this. The three gentlemen worked hard for the sake of Xiao Wang and planned for many years to achieve the great situation today. How dare they blame him?"

Master Ci'en, who had not spoken, said slowly: "The second prince Li Yao and the third prince Li Xiao, these two people fell strangely, especially the third prince. There are really few people who can make a second-class inner guard act as a death warrior. In addition, in order to gather Lin Ruhai, the Empress gave Jia Qiang the most favor, and she had no reason to let go when she reached this point.

Of course, maybe I am too suspicious, but I would rather believe this and have to try it out before I know it. If the Queen really regards that position as the treasure of the eldest prince and cannot be affected by others, then the prince’s trouble will be huge."

Li Shi laughed again when he heard this and said, "My mother is still virtuous... In addition, the world is still the Li family, with the father as the main body. The father has gone from an unknown prince to this point step by step. His heart is so tenacious that he will not be controlled by others.

It's interesting to say. If Lao Wu nodded and agreed today, it would be good. The money house will have hope for making money, and it would be a good thing to really make money. If the trouble starts, the Lone King can observe the reaction of his mother and observe the change, and it can be seen that the authenticity is true. At that time, the Lone King will give in and kowtow to the mother and apologize.

But I didn’t expect that Xiao Wu would make sense with the brother Gu Wang... Hey, three gentlemen, do you think Xiao Wu would have any ideas in his mind?”

When Mr. Qiuchi heard this, he laughed. Mr. Li Lian shook his head and said, "The prince should treat the fifth master well in the future. This is a pure person. For a business bank, he dared to run into Wuying Hall and point at the military minister to scold Qin Hui and call Tian Ri Zhao... The prince, treating this person well is a benevolent king, and he also has an explanation to the queen."

Even Master Ci'en, the most intelligent among the three, nodded and agreed, "This is a great good word."

Unless the prince dies, Li Xuan will never be able to take office.

But how could the prince die?

Even now, even adults are gone, and there is one more person in the womb of the Yungui.

I hope that the little one is more reliable than this one who is useless...

...

At night.

Ningfu Back Street, Xianger Hutong.

Liu's house.

Jia Qiang took off his shoes and went to the kang, sat cross-legged, leaning back, his nephew Xiao Shitou was behind him, trying to support him and prevent him from falling down.

Next to the big kang, Liu Daniu set up a kang table with some peanuts, melon seeds and other food on the table.

Opposite her, Daiyu sat.

Under the candle, looking at the beauty like flowers and jade, like the beauty walking down from the painting, Liu Daniu smiled and said, "Brother Qiang is such a blessing! The girl is so happy!"

Daiyu was a little shy, but she could also say generously: "My sister was born. I used to think that Brother Qiang was good-looking, but when I saw her, I realized that he was the ugliest one in the family!"

Liu Daniu laughed and said, "I can't do it anymore. It was okay when I was young, but now I'm almost getting white hair."
