Summon the Mythical Emperor of the World

The world will meet.

Xiongba frowned slightly: "Lingnan? What are the people from Cihang Jingzhai going to Lingnan for?"

The Sect Master of Bu Tian Dao bowed and said, "My subordinates are worried about being discovered, so I didn't let anyone follow too closely."

"After the disciples of Cihang Jingzhai entered Lingnan, they disappeared."

When Xiongba heard these words, he fell into thought.

Vaguely, Xiongba realized that at this time, Cihang Jingzhai would definitely not send disciples to Lingnan for no reason.

"Is there any gods and demons in Lingnan?"

Xiongba raised his head and asked.

"God and devil?"

The Sect Master of the Heaven-Mending Dao was slightly startled.

"Headmaster, as far as my subordinates know, the only place in Lingnan where there may be gods and demons is the Song family."

"Lingnan Song family."

The Sect Master of Bu Tian Dao said in a low voice.

In the records of the Heaven-Mending Dao, two hundred years ago, the Lingnan Song family was brilliant for a while...

"Lingnan Song Family?"

Xiongba pondered for a moment, then waved his hand: "Let me pay close attention to Lingnan for this old man. If I find that disciple of Cihang Jingzhai again and catch it, I would like to see what kind of tricks Cihang Jingzhai is playing this time. ."

There was a hint of coldness on Xiongba's face.

He didn't bother to guess what the purpose of Cihang Jingzhai was.

Just take down the disciple who went down the mountain and know it from the other party's mouth.

As for whether this disciple of Cihang Jingzhai will tell Xiongba the truth...

Using a tyrannical method to force a disciple in a mere area, it is naturally easy to capture.

...

Inside the Hall of Longevity.

Li Si asked the eunuchs to serve the eunuchs and sent the jade seals from the previous dynasty to the treasury.

For Li Si, losing the remaining national fortune, the biggest use of this jade seal is to watch...

Just when Li Si was about to continue reading the memorial, the eunuch came in to report.

"Your Majesty, the Minister of the Household is outside asking to see you."

The valet eunuch cupped his hands and said.

Li Si put down his memorial and said, "Xuan."

After a while.

The Minister of the Ministry of Housing entered the Hall of Longevity.

"I have seen Your Majesty."

The Minister of the Ministry of Commerce bowed to him.

"Flat body."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Li Siwei leaned on the throne of the dragon chair and looked at the minister of the household: "Aiqing, what's the matter with me?"

The Minister of the Ministry of Commerce stood on the Hall of Longevity and respectfully said: "Your Majesty, I have recently discovered that my businessman from the Tang Dynasty seems to be secretly planning something..."

Above the court, the emperor asked the minister of household to establish an institution to supervise the merchants in the world.

According to the emperor's will, the Minister of the Ministry of Housing began to prepare for this matter.

However, the Minister of Household finally found that with the abolition of customs tax, the status of businessmen began to improve.

These businessmen seem to have become a little restless...

Merchants make a lot of money by trading commodities.

After possessing the money, these businessmen began to form a group to form major commercial firms.

Li Si's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard the report from the Minister of the Ministry of Housing.

In Li Si's memory, he knew the businessman's method.

Merchants believe that money can heal the gods.

As long as they can make huge profits, businessmen dare to take the risk of killing people...

For Datang, commercial prosperity can certainly provide a large amount of commercial tax and enrich Datang's treasury.

But if businessmen are allowed to develop, there will be endless troubles...

Therefore, Li Si will issue a series of decrees to the Ministry of Household to monitor those businessmen.

"You can check this matter with confidence. If you have any questions, please let me know at any time."

Li Si said.

"According to the order."

The heart held by the Minister of the Ministry of Commerce finally let go.

You must know that behind those big business houses in Chang'an City, there must be the powerful and powerful of Chang'an City.

These dignitaries may be ministers in the court, or they may be relatives of the royal family.

In the face of these backers, the Minister of the Household really did not dare to move.

But now, with the emperor's words, the Minister of the Household's confidence suddenly increased.

Under the imperial power, even if you are a prince or aristocrat, you can only be anxious.

Just when the Minister of Household was about to speak.

The valet eunuch entered again.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Zhang Gong of the Academy of Sciences is outside asking to see you."

When the Minister of the Ministry of Commerce heard the words, his face changed slightly.

Academy of Sciences?

The Minister of the Household knew that His Majesty personally established the Academy of Sciences.

The Academy of Sciences is independent of the six departments and only obeys the orders of the Son of Heaven.

"I will retire first..."

The Minister of the Ministry of Housing did not dare to disturb the conversation between His Majesty and Zhang Gong of the Academy of Sciences.

"It's okay."

Li Si shook his head slightly.

The Minister of the Household received His Majesty's order and could only continue to stay in the Hall of Longevity.

soon.

Zhang Gong walked in.

"I have seen Your Majesty."

Zhang Gong's eyes were bloodshot, obviously he hadn't slept for several days.

But even so, Zhang Gong's face was still full of excitement.

Li Si glanced at Zhang Gong and said casually, "Is Aiqing used to being in the Academy of Sciences?"

Zhang respectfully said: "Your Majesty, everything is fine in the Academy, it's just..."

"Just what?"

Li Sirao looked at Zhang Gong with interest: "What? What's the problem?"

When Zhang Gong heard the emperor's question, he said bravely: "Your Majesty, there are many things in the Academy of Sciences today, such as certain metals and rare materials. When I study 'steam', I need to use these things... ..."

"It's simple."

Li Si smiled: "It's just right, the Minister of the Household is here. I will ask the Minister of Household to transfer 500,000 taels of silver from the national treasury to the Academy of Sciences."

As soon as Li Si's voice fell, the Minister of the Household's face immediately became bitter.

In the opinion of the Minister of the Household, 500,000 taels of silver is enough for the salaries of the Tang courtiers for several years...

Now, the 500,000 taels of silver were thrown into the Academy of Sciences all at once, and the Minister of the Household was of course distressed.

If someone else dared to open such a big mouth at once, the Minister of the Ministry of Housing would definitely blow his beard and stare...

Only, this is what Your Majesty means...

The emperor's order, the Minister of the Household can only obey.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zhang Gong's eyes lit up immediately.

Five hundred thousand taels of silver!

Zhang Gong had never seen so much silver in his life.

However, Zhang Gong also knew in his heart that the emperor gave them so much money to let him develop 'steam'.

If in the end, he Zhang Gong did not develop anything, I am afraid that his life will not be guaranteed.

The richest person in the world is undoubtedly the emperor.

The emperor sits on the country and holds the grain in his hand. What do you want?

But the emperor's money is not so easy to get...

Although Zhang Gong did not understand politics, he knew that the most ruthless person in the world was the emperor.

"Okay, if there's nothing wrong, let's go."

Li Si said lightly.

"According to the order."

"My minister retire."

...

Outside the Hall of Longevity.

After the Minister of the Ministry of Housing and Zhang Gong left.

Tantai Yiren held the sewn dragon robe in both hands and stared at the Hall of Longevity.

Tantai Yiren has been thinking about how to get His Majesty's attention and how to climb onto the dragon couch...

Even an alien princess can be blessed by His Majesty, why can she only watch from the side of Tantai Yiren?

Tantai Yiren was not reconciled.

Tantai Yiren found out that if she still took the initiative towards His Majesty, she would never be able to achieve her goal.

Therefore, Tantai Yi people changed their attitude.

She began to be detached from His Majesty.

She began to approach His Majesty in other ways.

For example, when His Majesty is processing the memorial until late at night, a bowl of soup is stewed and sent to His Majesty...

For example, now, sewing a dragon robe for His Majesty......

Tantai Yiren believes that one day, sooner or later, His Majesty will realize that in the palace, only she, Tantai Yiren, is the most suitable woman...

Thinking of this, Tantai Yiren settled down, holding the dragon robe, and walked towards the hall of longevity.
