"Your Majesty! I was on the way just now and bought an exquisite snack! Your Majesty, let's try it!" Fang Xuanling said with a smile.

Li Shimin stopped in his tracks!
Looking at Fang Xuanling suspiciously!
"You have a fever?!"

Fang Xuanling...

"Your Majesty! This sandwich is very delicious!"

"Salary increase! Salary increase! So sweet!!"

Du Ruhui hurriedly opened the snack bag and looked at Li Shimin with piercing eyes.

Li Shimin was stunned, raised his eyebrows, shook his head and said: "I just ate enough! Let me eat such a sweet and greasy food again! Are you trying to hurt my dragon body?!"

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui: Obviously, he clearly... understands!But pretend to be confused!

"Your Majesty! I recently learned a new piece of music. Do you want to listen to it?"

Fang Xuanling said with a smile.

"I don't want to! Get out of here!" Li Shimin was a little annoyed!

Du Ruhui has already spoken!

"When will you have the silver? Keep your eyes on the blue sky, don't know how much it will rise, and when will you get it?"

Li Shimin...

Yang Zhuo on the side was amused!
"Old Li! For the sake of their hard work, you should give them some salary!"

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui looked at Li Shimin expectantly.

Li Shimin remained silent for a long time with a sullen face!

"Immediately! Immediately! Now!"

"piss off!"

"Otherwise! One year's salary will be deducted!!"

As soon as the words fell, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were gone!

"Old Li! You are really stingy!" Yang Zhuo shook his head and laughed.

Li Shimin was speechless!

"Are you still laughing at me??! It's not your fault!"

"What does it have to do with me? I won't blame you!" Yang Zhuo said with a smile.

"You pay Liu Da such a high salary. In comparison, the emperor, I, seems a bit stingy!"

Li Shimin muttered.

"Old Li! Be more confident and remove the look!" Yang Zhuo said with a smile.

You are stingy!
Li Shimin...

"I can't help it! My Tang Dynasty has such a huge territory, so many officials, and they all add money, how can I still afford it?!" Li Shimin said helplessly, shaking his head.

"Hey! However, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui are all heroes who have fought the world with me. It seems that I feel sorry if I don't add it. I feel that I am stingy. If I add it, others will not be convinced! I want to add it too. !"

Li Shimin rubbed his forehead and said.

Yang Zhuo smiled, and said: "I have a plan here, you don't need to add money to them, and you can show that you respect them!"

When Li Shimin heard this, he didn't need to raise money!

Immediately excited!

"Tell me now!"

Yang Zhuo smiled and said: "You select some ministers who you think have made great contributions, and then build an attic, and paint the portraits of the meritorious officials there to commend the meritorious officials!"

"I've already thought of a name for you, it's called Lingyan Pavilion!"

"As long as these heroes are treated differently and their portraits are enshrined in Lingyan Pavilion, they will definitely feel very honored in their hearts! I am grateful to you! Work harder in the future! And the other ministers have no bullshit to say!"

"Moreover, this Lingyan Pavilion can last forever! Scholars of future generations will praise you, Lao Li, as a wise king!"

After Yang Zhuo finished speaking, Li Shimin was stunned for a long time!

"Great! This method is really good!"

Li Shimin had already made up his mind quickly, so he renovated and cleaned an abandoned attic next to the palace, and built this Lingyan Pavilion!
Save a lot of money! !
Inspired a group of people!

Also won a good reputation!

Wonderful!Wonderful!

"However, who should be let in this Lingyan Pavilion?!"

Li Shimin is in trouble!

Yang Zhuo waved his fan, walked forward, and said, "You can think about this matter yourself, don't ask me! I'm too lazy to care about it!"

Li Shimin...

-

On the second day, early morning.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, they came to court early on!
"Have you heard?! Liu Da from Yangjiazhuang! General Liu! The salary he receives in the Yang family is thirty times the salary of a second-rank general!"

"Thirty times! So much!"

"Oh my god! Compare the two! Our salary is too low!"

"Our salary has not been raised since the first year of Zhenguan!"

"That's right! In Chang'an City, the price of grain, oil, rice and noodles hasn't increased?!"

"This salary doesn't increase, and I can't be greedy! Life is hard!"

"Go on like this! This day is impossible!"

Ministers, you talk, I talk, there is a lot of discussion below!
While discussing, Li Shimin came.

As soon as I came in, I heard the ministers below discussing the matter of salary increase!

It's annoying! !

"uh-huh!"

"Everyone, I have something to play today!"

The ministers looked at each other.

Afterwards, Qi Qi knelt down on the ground.

"Your Majesty! I feel deeply that your Majesty is a virtuous king through the ages! My Tang Dynasty, under the Emperor's rule, the country will be prosperous and the people will be safe! The weather will be smooth..."

Ministers, first blow a rainbow fart to Li Shimin.

"The ministers thought that on the occasion of this celebration, the emperor should give a big reward."

"My minister agrees!"

"My minister agrees!"

……

Li Shimin looked at the ministers below indifferently. Those who took the lead in speaking were all the founding heroes!
He knew that they would definitely make trouble this morning!
Fortunately, however!He has a trick from Yang Zhuo!

"Cough, cough, cough!"

"What you dear ladies said is true! I also feel that it's time to reward meritorious deeds!"

As soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, Fang Xuanling and the others looked up at Li Shimin in a daze.

"Duke! The emperor agreed??"

"Fang Gong! The emperor is the king of a country! He agreed!"

Just when they were having fun, Cheng Yaojin, sober in the world, shook his head and laughed.

"Don't think too much about it! Our emperor is so stingy, so many people are rewarded! Will he agree so easily??! There must be fraud!"

Qin Qiong reminded Cheng Yaojin, saying: "Don't talk nonsense! Since the emperor has promised, he will definitely not break his promise!"

Cheng Yaojin smiled and said nothing!
-

A few months later, at the beginning of spring, Lingyan Pavilion.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui's group were called by Li Shimin, saying that they were going to give them a banquet to reward them for their meritorious deeds!

They stood at the gate of Lingyan Pavilion, looking up at the big gold characters in Lingyan Pavilion!
"Lingyan Pavilion!"

"This name is so elegant!"

Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and smiled.

"I heard that the name of Lingyan Pavilion was chosen by the concubine Yang Zhuo! Can it be inelegant?!" Yu Shinan acted like I knew the inside story!

A few days ago, Yu Shinan and Yan Liben were good friends. When they were reciting poems and painting together in the room, they heard Yan Liben say that the emperor asked him to paint portraits of the founding heroes!
Yu Shinan inquired about it by the way!
"My son-in-law is so talented!!"

"Good name!"

Ministers one by one, boast!
This Yang Zhuo exposed Liu Lan's treason with his mouth open!
Moreover, it was accurate enough that Liu Lan's private jade seal was in the bedside treasure box!

Liu Lan was cut in half!
Horror!
After hearing this, they trembled, fearing that if they were not careful, they would offend Yang Zhuo!It will end up like Liu Lan!
Only Cheng Yaojin took out a handful of melon seeds from his pocket, and said while eating the melon seeds.

"You said, the emperor is so good, what is he going to do by transforming this dilapidated attic into Lingyan Pavilion?!"

"Shh! Your Majesty's thoughts, stop guessing!" Qin Qiong reminded.

"I see! The emperor must be here to honor it, as he said last time, rewards are based on merit!" Fang Xuanling was thinking in his heart!

Another big income!
"Old Fang! What are you happy about?! The rewards given to you by the emperor will be given to you now, and you will have to hand them all in when you go back!" Hejian Wang Li Xiaogong teased.

"Hahaha! Exactly! Old Fang! I guess, this reward of yours won't last until tomorrow!" Du Ruhui also joked.

Fang Xuanling was slightly angry: "You don't know, there is something called private money?!"

"Old Du! What are you so happy about?? Could it be that you want to get a reward and go get a few concubines?" Fang Xuanling sneered, "I'm afraid your kidneys will suffer!"

Du Ruhui: ...

"I have the kidney treasure of my son-in-law! Don't be afraid of losing money!"

"Hahaha!"

The crowd burst into laughter!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, come here!"

At this time, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun walked towards this side with a smile!

Followed by a group of court ladies and eunuchs!Holding melons and fruits, dishes, and fine wines in his hands.

When the ministers heard this, they immediately stopped laughing and laughing, and knelt down respectfully!

"Aiqing is alive! No courtesy!" Li Shimin said with a smile.

Then everyone got up and stood by the side.

"Today is a good day! I have decided to invite all the meritorious officials here in Lingyan Pavilion!"

"I have asked Yan Liben to draw the portraits of the heroes, and now they are hanging in the attic!"

"From now on, dear friends, you can come and visit at any time, and my descendants will also come and observe regularly! Always remember all the heroes!"

Li Shimin said so.

Ministers, slightly stunned!Feeling chills down the spine...

They are not dead yet!Is this already up? ? ? !
After finishing speaking, Li Shimin looked into the distance and said in a low voice: "This Yang Zhuo! Maybe he won't come!"

Empress Changsun smiled, and said: "Don't worry! The concubine asked Yang Zhuo to be tortured, so he must come!"

"That's good! That's good!"

"It's great to have a daughter!" Li Shimin said with a smile.

"Go! Let's go in and take a look!"

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he smiled and led the eldest grandson empress, and walked in front.

Ministers, follow behind.

The maids filed in and placed the melons, fruits and dishes on the table inside!
As soon as they entered, they saw their own portrait hanging in the attic.

"One, two, three, four...a total of 25!"

"The first one is actually...my son-in-law, Yang Zhuo!"

Everyone saw that the portrait of Yang Zhuo was like a tree facing the wind!Top of the crowd!

Li Shimin felt that if it weren't for Yang Zhuo, his current throne might not be secure!

Therefore, Yang Zhuo's contribution is the greatest!

"The second one is, my eldest grandson!"

They saw that the eldest grandson Wuji was ranked second!
Changsun Wuji, standing at the bottom, looked at his ranking, very convinced in his heart!

Yang Zhuo is so amazing!He knew that he was not as good as Yang Zhuo!So, it's so normal to be ranked behind Yang Zhuo!
Other ministers, start looking for your own ranking!
At this time, Su Rujiang's voice came from outside.

"The son-in-law is here!"
