Chapter 572 Li Er issued an order to reward Cheng Chumo

The prince didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately presented the memorial to Li Er!

Li Er took the memorial and looked at it with relish, the more he watched, the happier he was!
Because Datang Navy not only earned back the cost of going to sea this time, but also made at least a hundred thousand guan!

One hundred thousand Guan was in the first year of Zhenguan, which was equivalent to one-tenth of the tax revenue of the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, because of Yuchihuan, the tax revenue of the Ministry of Households has doubled to 300 million at present.

Coupled with the income of the Shaofu controlled by Li Er, it will be even more impressive.

At present, even if Li Er does not have the taxes paid by the common people, he can earn more than one million guan a year just by relying on the workshops controlled by the Shaofu.

"Haha... Cheng Zhijie's son is not bad, since he found a gold mine in San Francisco so quickly!"

After reading the content of the memorial, Li Er was very happy.

The prince raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, Cheng Chumo has found a gold mine this time, the court must reward him!"

Li Er nodded in approval and said: "Big Companion, you are right, I have clear rewards and punishments, I can't bury Cheng Chumo's achievements!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

The prince immediately flattered him.

Li Er thought for a moment, and said seriously: "Although Cheng Chumo has found the gold mine, the gold has not been transported back to Datang, so I can't give him an official title!"

"Your Majesty, then you can wait for Cheng Chumo's triumphant return to the Tang Dynasty before giving him an official title!"

Wang Gonggong immediately responded to Li Er.

Li Er smiled and said: "Big companion, if I reward Cheng Chumo and his old man Cheng Zhijie, will the courtiers impeach me for being stingy?"

"Your Majesty, all civil and military officials want you to live a hard life. If you reward Cheng Zhijie, the officials will not only not object, but will support you!"

Wang Gonggong answered Li Er with a smile on his face.

Li Erlong said with great joy: "I will pass on my will. The Navy Commander of the Tang Dynasty Zhechong Duwei Cheng Chumo has made great achievements in going to sea. I will reward Cheng Zhijie with one hundred pieces of cloth and ten pieces of rose soap. This is my honor!"

"The slaves obey the orders!"

The prince will draw up the decree immediately.

After a while, Li Er's imperial edict was sent to Cheng's house by the eunuch delivering the edict.

After Li Er finished handling Cheng Chumo's memorial, he was about to leave the imperial study to eat the imperial meal.

"Big Companion, did little Yuchi make trouble in Zhongshu Province today?"

Li Er got up and asked Wang Gonggong.

The prince respectfully said: "Your Majesty, little Yuchi has been working hard in Zhongshu Province today, he has not been lazy, and he has not tricked grandson Shunde!"

Li Er sighed and said: "Xiao Yuchi is only 11 years old now, I hope he will be more careful in his work in the future!"

The prince confidently said: "Your Majesty, I believe that under your training, Xiao Yuchi will definitely become a pillar of the country in the future!"

"I hope it's as my friend said!"

Li Er has high hopes for Yu Chihuan!

Zhongshu Sheng is the yamen that specializes in helping Li Er deal with national policies and government orders.

All the laws and government orders of the Tang Dynasty were issued from the Zhongshu Province.

Li Er arranged Yu Chihuan to serve as the order of Zhongshu Province in Zhongshu Province, the purpose is self-evident!

In Li Er's eyes, Yuchihuan is Datang's future Dinghaishenzhen!
As for Yuchi Huan's loyalty issue!

Li Er trusted Yu Chihuan very much, he didn't believe that a god would covet his throne as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

In Li Er's eyes, Yu Chihuan is no different from a god.

Li Er then walked out of the imperial study and went to the imperial dining hall for dinner.

In fact, the Imperial Dining Hall is on the left side of the Ganlu Hall, and Li Er can reach it just by moving a few steps.

When they arrived at the imperial dining hall, the imperial chef immediately brought Li Er's favorite chili fried pork to the table.

Then a variety of stir-fried dishes and braised pork were also served on the table.

Li Er picked up a piece of shiny red braised pork and put it into his mouth to chew. He then showed a satisfied look.

"Ah... that's the smell!"

Li Er couldn't help sighing while eating the delicious braised pork.

Next, Li Er ate chili fried pork.

For Guanzhong people, there are many people who like spicy food.

Li Er is also addicted to chili peppers, and now he enjoys spicy food every day.

Even though Li Er's lips were red from eating, he still couldn't get enough of it and said: "Stir-fried pork with chili is more suitable for my taste!"

Eunuch Wang waited on Li Er for dinner.

Li Er devoured his meal voraciously, and was soon full.

"Big companion, how did I find out that today's chili fried pork has so little chili?"

Li Er was full, only to find that today's fried pork with chili has much more meat than chili!

Although the taste has not changed, but Li Er likes to eat chili, so he is a little dissatisfied!

The prince said awkwardly: "Your Majesty, the ten pepper seedlings planted in Ganlu Palace have a limited number of peppers to pick every day, so the Imperial Kitchen Hall does not have any extra peppers for cooking!"

Li Er suddenly realized: "Big companion, you are right, I have too few hot chili seedlings, otherwise I would eat enough chili every day!"

"Your Majesty, I heard that Yuchi Gong takes a bushel of chili peppers to the military department and gives them to his colleagues every day."

The prince had an idea, and urged Li Erdao: "Why don't you order Yuchi's family to pay tribute to the Tai Chi Palace with chili peppers!"

Li Er smiled and said: "Big Companion, you are right, the chili was given to me by Xiao Yuchi, there is nothing wrong with ordering him to pay tribute to the chili, haha!"

"Your Majesty, it takes half a liter of chili peppers to cook a dish of fried pork with chili peppers. Yushantang needs at least one liter of chili peppers every day!"

Wang Gonggong then provided Li Er with the consumption of peppers.

Li Er waved his hand and said: "I will pass on my will, starting from today, Yuchi's family will pay me a liter of pepper every day!"

"The slaves obey the orders!"

The prince was overjoyed, and he then sent eunuchs to pass the decree to Yuchi's house.

"In the future, I can let go of my stomach and eat chili fried pork haha!"

Li Er was in a good mood when he saw the imperial decree leaving Ganlu Hall!
When passing by the pepper seedlings in the back garden, Li Er deliberately went to water them.

The ten chili trees planted in the Ganlu Temple were laid down by eunuchs every day, so the branches on them were bare, and it seemed that they had been picked too much.

Some half-green and half-red peppers were not spared by the eunuchs of Ganlu Palace!
Li Er looked at those green chili peppers and said with a wry smile: "I won't eat you in the future, you will grow up for me hahaha!"

After finishing speaking, Li Er returned to the bedroom to take a nap.

As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Er went to the court very punctually every day to correct the memorials.

Regardless of the weather, he can be called a model worker!
Eunuch Wang sent Li Er back to his bedroom, and he also went to eat.

……

Suzaku Main Street, Yuchi's house!

At noon, Yuchihuan and the eldest lady had dinner at home.

It was rare for Yu Chigong to stay at home today to accompany the eldest lady for dinner.

As a result, Yu Chigong was half full, and Li Er's eunuch who delivered the order suddenly ran to the door of the house to deliver the order.

Yuchigong didn't dare to neglect, and immediately took Yuchihuan and the eldest lady out to receive the order.

When the decree eunuch read out Li Er's imperial edict to ask for chili.

Yu Chigong was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that Li Er would confer the pepper as a tribute!

But the matter has come to this point, Yu Chigong can only accept his fate and say: "My minister obeys the order!"
