Datang: The prince of salted fish was overheard by Li Er

This sentence in Li You's mind was not good, and it even scared Li Shimin.

Li Shimin looked back at Li You and asked, "Your, I haven't seen you go to court for a long time, but you are still sad about Du Shangshu?"

"Birth, old age, sickness and death are inevitable. As a doctor, just do your best."

After Du Yan's death, Li Shimin did not treat him badly, and gave him the right servant She, posthumously named "Xiang".

You must know that the posthumous title "Xiang" means: "There is virtue in building land, hard work in armor, and meritorious deeds." Generally speaking, it is bestowed on those who have made military achievements.

But for Du Yan, a civil official, such a posthumous title has a special meaning.

It turned out that when Du Yan first came to Li Shimin's side, his first position was Cao Canjun, a soldier of Tiance Mansion.

This represents Li Shimin's gratitude to Du Yan and his not forgetting his original intention.

It means that Li Shimin remembers Du Yan's life clearly.

Hearing Li Shimin mention Du Yan, Li You's heart ached again.

[This matter is none of your business, so if you open your mouth, you will come to comfort me. 】

[It’s true that when you are old, you still go around praying to gods and Buddhas and seeking panacea. 】

【Let me tell you that although you didn't die from taking medicine, but taking so much cinnabar into it, wouldn't it really affect your health. 】

Li You complained a few words in his heart before getting to the point.

He quickly calmed down and said, "Your Majesty, my son is here for the surrender of the Western Turks."

In fact, before Li You came over, the people in the study were discussing this matter.

Now hearing that Li You came here for this matter, Li Shimin naturally nodded and asked Li You's opinion.

"You'er, if you have any insight, you might as well say it and we can discuss it together."

In fact, Li Shimin and his trio of think tanks have already reached a preliminary conclusion on this matter, and it is precisely because of this that Li Daoli was recruited.

However, Li You ignored what Li Shimin had discussed before, and he slowly said: "I heard that His Majesty accepted the surrender of the two khans of the Western Turks, and has immediately started organizing the household department to prepare for the land and population of the original Western Turks. Clearance work."

"I hope to get permission from my father!"

As soon as these words came out, Li Shimin and the people present were shocked again.

Especially Li Shimin, facing this familiar scene, he just nodded subconsciously.

Seeing Li Shimin nodding, Li You didn't say anything, and immediately thanked him: "Thank you for your permission, Father, I will definitely handle the next thing properly."

[Looking at Li Er's stupid face, he must have never thought of it. 】

[Others say that they have surrendered. It is only serious to send people to take over the land and population first. 】

[Whether to get married or not is something for later. If you really want to take over their land, whether you want to get married, with whom, and who will get married is not just your words. 】

[Hey, this doesn't recognize the essence of the problem, don't think that getting married can solve the problem. 】

At this moment, Li Shimin finally understood, and said again: "Your, what you said is very true."

"Since Western Turks have expressed their surrender, it is inevitable that Datang will take over the population and land."

"If they came to surrender with sincerity, they would naturally not have any complaints."

"And if they don't obey the management, naturally this surrender is not sincere."

After Li Shimin finished speaking, the trio kept nodding.

At this time, Changsun Wuji asked as if thinking of something: "King Yan, will the household inspection this time be like the one done in the five northern states last time?"

Li You immediately understood that Changsun Wuji was talking about Datang coins.

"Of course, since it is the territory of my Tang Dynasty, it is natural to use Datang coins."

Li You nodded and said disapprovingly.

Replacing the original gold and silver transactions with Datang coins and copper coins is the fundamental plan for Li You to prepare for economic control of these areas.

Not only the East Turkic territories in the past will be used, but the current Western Turkic territories will also be used, including the land that Datang intends to occupy for a long time in the future.

However, facing Li You's answer, Changsun Wuji frowned.

"My lord, is there any problem with doing this?"

"As far as the situation in the five northern states is concerned, this policy is quite useful."

Li You said with some puzzlement.

You know, the reason why the Khans and tribal leaders, large and small, in the five northern states are so generous to take out the tribes to continue to build the city, apart from the benefits that the city itself may bring, the bigger problem is They feel like they are using paper.

In their view, all the gold and silver they had accumulated for generations had been snatched away by Datang, and facing the paper in their hands, if they were not used, it would really become waste paper.

It is better to take it out and use it than to put it in your hand and get moldy.

With the walled city and supplies instead, they feel more at ease.

In the past six months, the large-scale construction of Western Turks has brought the entire Central Plains into a state of rapid development.

Food from the south, building materials from the north, and a large flow of manpower and materials gave Datang unprecedented vitality.

And if the Western Turks can also enter the five northern states, then the time when the Tang Dynasty entered the prosperous age will be greatly advanced.

For such normality, Li You can't see any problem.

Not only Li You couldn't see the problem, but Li Shimin couldn't see the problem either.

Faced with puzzled eyes, Changsun Wuji said: "Your Majesty and King Yan still don't know anything. Now the Tang coins issued in the five northern states have been brought to the capital along with business travelers, but after arriving in the capital, the coins are used. something is wrong."

"Except for a small number of commercial banks that have entered the five northern states to accept Datang coins, most merchants do not accept Datang coins, and sometimes there will be friction because of this."

"Although Datang currency can be exchanged at the Ministry of Accounts, many merchants will not go to the Ministry of Accounts because they think it is troublesome. On the contrary, there are merchants who exchange money in various markets."

"These merchants hold a large amount of copper coins and Datang coins, and use the exchange to exchange for the price difference."

"Originally, the one-to-one exchange agreed by the Ministry of Households has a price difference, which has caused many businessmen to complain. Even the trading power of Datang coins is also declining."

"I am afraid that if the scale of issuance is increased, Datang's currency market will become uncontrollable."

Hearing this, Li You also frowned.

Although he opened a special exchange channel in the household department, he did not expect that these merchants would be so worried about trouble.

But then Li You still smiled slightly and said: "Master Changsun is too worried."

"It's a good thing for the people to help us do something that the imperial court didn't do well."

"This king is absolutely, since this business has taken shape, it means there is a need for it."

"And all we have to do is issue laws to regulate them."

"Since this matter started from the Ministry of Household Affairs, then this king will be responsible for solving it."

From Li You's point of view, the spontaneous emergence of merchants who exchange currency is actually a good sign to some extent.

As for whether these people have other purposes, this matter is left to Jin Yiwei.

If not, Li You will give them a chance to make a lot of money, and if there is, then Li You has no choice but to say sorry to them.

At this time, Li Daoli on the side asked, "Your Majesty, what about Min'er's marriage?"
