Chapter 316 (1/2)

Decision making is not the best place to solve practical problems. Li Hong's words flashed in his mind when he looked at the noisy situation in xuanzheng hall coldly.

The five surnames and seven families were blocked by the light and hidden obstacles, or the full support of high-ranking officials and dignitaries. Now there are swarms of bees in the court hall, and the royal family members are mixed in the mud, and the great scholars of Hongxue stand at the commanding height of morality and grieve.

What caused this situation was Li Hong's cold saying: ”all old money should be abolished from now on, and no transaction can be used.”

It was like throwing a bomb at the main hall of xuanzheng hall. Not only did the five surnamed seven families and the royal family members who had a lot of money in their hands began to worry, but even the officials of the three provinces and six ministries who stabilized the imperial court began to worry. In this way, no matter who could afford the losses, the Hubu department would have lost half a year's revenue.

But after Li Hong once again coldly throws out a data, the people who hold a large amount of old money in their hands begin to be silent. That is, if they do not exchange according to the same amount and exchange them at the difference of 300 Wen, Datang will also lose half a year's revenue. And this is now the focus of the debate!

After a moment's quiet, the crowd again fell into a quarrel and heated theory. This is not only Li Hong's business, but also a dispute between some honest officials and those who hold old money.

Obviously, Li Hong's original goal has been achieved. He knows that the court's resolution is not the place to solve the problem, but it is definitely an excellent place to stir up the flames. Only by sharpening and expanding the problem, can such a long-lasting game be ended as soon as possible, and at the same time, it can reduce the loss of some money for the Tang Dynasty.

Even Li Hong didn't notice when they were in trouble. Behind Li Zhi's screen when he was in court, he had already sat down with the present emperor and empress.

Li Zhi's face is as hard to see as it is now. From time to time, he looks at Wu Mei, as if to say, look, this is the result of your laissez faire. How can such a thing be solved in the open?

Wu Mei, learning from Li Hong's usual appearance, shrugged her shoulders helplessly at Lizhi. Her face was still relaxed, as if there was a commotion in the hall, which was not bad for her.

”Wang Lou, what is that little rabbit doing? Can he stand by and stay out of the trouble when the court quarrels like this Wu Mei is not good either. Now she goes to ask Li Hong what she wants. But obviously, the new money and the old money are just a starting point.

Wang Lou moved two steps to the side. Through the screen curtain, he saw Li Hong sitting there, as if enjoying the chaos of the court hall. From time to time, he still took a sip of tea. Then he continued to look at the quarrelling officials, imperial relatives, great scholars and aristocratic families. Or did he occasionally read the examination paper on the table?

”My highness and queen, your highness is looking through a piece of paper on the desk. I can see it vaguely. It seems to be the imperial examination paper of Hongwen hall last year.” Wang Lou said respectfully.

Wu Mei, with a clear look and a relaxed smile, looked at Li Zhi and said, ”see, the real meaning of drunkard is not wine. I'm afraid that this Imperial College and Hongwen hall are his real intentions.”

”Then you said he would give up the new money and the old money?” Li Zhi didn't care about the Guozijian and hongwenguan. He couldn't make a mess of the court.

However, if the court is confused because of money, people are impetuous, separated and disintegrated, and all classes are hostile, it is not all good for the stability of the country.

”Your Highness, your highness, Queen Bai, is at the gate of xuanzheng.” Wang Lou, like a telescope, looked at the situation outside and hurriedly reported to him.

”Really? Watch the play. The good play is coming. ” Wu Mei's excited look didn't make Li Zhiqi faint in the past. Is this still the queen who helps her deal with the government?

Yang Wu whispers a few words in Li Hong's ear. Li Hong looks at the gate of xuanzheng hall. Bai Chun stealthily beckons to him. Li Hong gets up and wants to go out.

Peiyan and Cen changqian, the provincial minister under the door, saw Li Hong up and hurried forward to inquire.

Li Hong smile: ”continue, I'll be back soon. It's almost noon, and it's time to end.”

Peiyan and Cen changqian look at each other. Although the prince's highness is smiling in front of them, they feel that the prince's highness is like a group of burning anger, but it has been suppressed and not sent out.
