I am Li Shen and Li Shimin, the free kings of the Tang Dynasty

Changsun Wuji drank tea leisurely and contentedly, looking calm and calm.

"Father, do you mean that this matter was planned by King Ji from beginning to end? There is no one from the Western Region at all?"

After hearing Changsun Wuji's words, Changsun Chong asked curiously.

He has lived a very comfortable life in the past few years, and his yard has not cost the Duke's government money for several years.

And sometimes some of the money will be used to fill the treasury of the Duke's Mansion.

These are all attributed to his wife, Princess Changle. The initial cooperation between Princess Changle and Prince Ji's Mansion has been legendary in the business world.

The investment of 500 yuan was exchanged for a 10% dividend from Jiwangfu Liquor Industry, and now the income has reached one million.

If Li Lizhi hadn't been a princess, the 10% of the bonus in her hand would have been taken away by Qiao Hao.

Although Changsun Chong didn't have a good impression of Li Shen, he had to admit that Li Shen could indeed be called a genius in business.

As his father said just now, this incident was most likely led by King Ji.

"Chong'er, you have been an official in the Prince's East Palace for some years. Do you know why you are still just a subordinate official now?

As your father is the Prime Minister and the Crown Prince, it will not be a problem to arrange a small position for you.

Why are there no arrangements for fatherhood? "Changsun Wuji did not answer his son's words, but asked instead.

"This... I don't know."

"That's because being a father requires you to hone yourself at the bottom, not only your ability to do things, but also your knowledge and some tricks of the bottom people.

In this way, when you are in a high position, you can clearly see who is doing things and who is not. "

Changsun Wuji said seriously.

Changsun Chong is the eldest son and will succeed the dukedom of another country in the future.

The huge family property will be handed over to Changsun Chong in the future. To exaggerate, it is the same as training a prince.

The prince guards the country, and the eldest grandson Chong wants to guard the family.

"Yes, please remember Aye's teachings. But is there any connection between this matter?" Changsun Chong lowered his head to accept the teaching, but also felt a little confused.

"Haha, of course it does matter. Human nature is greedy. Driven by desire, you will lose the ability to think.

From ancient times to the present, many extremely intelligent people have been blinded by greed and do not listen to the dissuasion of those around them.

I guess this silk cloth incident is a revenge of King Ji. Don’t forget that His Majesty was assassinated not long ago.

At that time, many people were pouring dirty water on Prince Ji's Mansion and wanted to remove the force from Prince Ji's Mansion.

Do you think that the young prince didn’t know about this before he went to court?

But he never stood up to express his dissatisfaction and kept silent. This was because he was waiting for an opportunity.

This little prince likes to hurt people behind their backs, he is very insidious. Changsun Wuji stroked his beard and taught his two sons.

"My father was still wise and saw through King Ji's trajectory from the beginning. Many princes and nobles hoarded some raw silk and linen.

Only our Duke Zhao's Mansion did not move, which reduced a lot of losses. " Changsun Huan said in admiration.

"Alas~~~ As a father, I only avoided risks, but did not think of profiting from them. I am not as good as King Ji in this regard.

If we could have followed the acquisition and sold it immediately after the price increase, we would have made a lot of money every time we entered and exited in just a few days.

What a pity. "Sun Wuji, the eldest son of Zhao Guogong, shook his head. He just thought that this might be a trap, so he didn't fall into the trap, but he never thought about profiting from it.

"Aye, this is already very good. I heard that their family lost at least tens of thousands of guan. There are even more aristocratic families, and each family has hundreds of thousands of guan in inventory." Changsun Chong consoled him.

"No, the one with the most is the King of Jin. He just purchased 740,000 gu of raw silk and linen from the Ministry of Civil Affairs. This time he lost all his money." Changsun Wuji shook his head.

"Seventy-four thousand guan? So much? Where did Prince Jin's palace get so much money? And isn't it said that things from the treasury cannot be purchased privately?

Wasn't King Ji rejected? "Changsun Chong was surprised and asked several questions in succession.

"Of course it is the order from His Highness the Crown Prince, otherwise the Ministry of Civil Affairs would not have the guts to secretly sell state treasury supplies.

Haha, it seems that our Crown Prince is not simple either. "Changsun Wuji laughed and said,

"Aye means that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince colluded with King Ji?" Changsun Huan said in surprise.

Everyone knows that Prince Ji has a close relationship with the prince. Over the years, the prince has gone astray several times, but it was King Ji who straightened him out.

Especially the last time, King Ji kidnapped the prince and forced him to go to Yucai Academy for a month.

If others had already beheaded him a hundred times, it would be extra merciful not to involve his family.

But not only was King Ji okay, His Majesty also looked very happy.

Therefore, Changsun Huan felt that it was probably King Ji and the prince who conspired to do this.

But soon he saw his father, Chang Sun Wuji, shaking his head.

"This matter is definitely not collusion between the two of them. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not yet succeeded to the throne, and His Majesty is still alive.

Do you two know the consequences of a prince and a prince conspiring on such a big thing?

What would His Majesty think?

His Royal Highness is not a fool, and that young prince is extremely smart and knows how to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune.

How could they both make such a mistake?

According to my father, King Ji should have done this alone, and our Prince knows King Ji very well.

Therefore, he came to add fuel to the flames at the critical moment, helping King Ji and eliminating his own hidden dangers.

On the surface, he pretended not to know anything, so no one would think of him.

Even if the matter is exposed, King Ji will be there to protect him from the negative impact and will not lose his prestige. "

Changsun Wuji was indeed an old fox, and he actually guessed everything inside.

After hearing this, the two sons were all in admiration.

"Father is really powerful. It makes sense to say it this way. It seems that people say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a close relationship with Prince Ji, but they are just taking advantage of it." Changsun Chong said with emotion.

"Hmph, let you practice hard. Now you still have such childish ideas. Everyone in this court is taking advantage of each other.

If I am not worth being used by others, do you think I can still hold a high position in the court?

King Ji protects the prince from the outside world. What is the purpose of this? This is to ensure that the prince's life will be peaceful after he succeeds to the throne, and that his descendants will be safe and sound.

If you two have the ability to be used by the prince, it will be really blessed by the ancestors of my eldest grandson family.

By that time, our eldest grandson’s family, Duke Zhao’s Mansion, will definitely be able to reach a higher level. "

Changsun Wuji looked at his two sons and scolded them angrily. He even wondered if he was stupid because of studying.

He was so naive when he entered the court, not like himself at all.

He has been an official for most of his life, and he can see clearly that interests are always the first priority in the court, and I will only ally with you if you are valuable.

For the sake of profit, you can call a deer a horse, and you can confuse right and wrong. He's seen it all.
