Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Li Tai looked confused, is that so?Why can't he figure out the relationship between these things?In the end, can it be calculated whether the people have cultivated the land?

After reading it, Li Ke frowned. He directly picked up his pen and wrote a note on the desk in front of him, then handed it to Li Tai and said, "You, Qing Que, go to Han Outside the light gate, there are people from Tian Meng guarding there, you give this to him, let him pass it to Tian Meng, and investigate it as quickly as possible."

"Yes!" Li Tai took the note and ran away.

Li Ke looked at the things in his hands, then raised his head and said, "Go down first, you guys will have a day off tomorrow, and then be ready to take over related work at any time."

"Yes, Your Highness." Ning Quan immediately bent over and turned to leave.

"Go, call Huang Fulin over." Li Ke put the things in his hands aside, and then called a little eunuch over.

"Yes!"

Huangfulin is not close to Liangyi Hall, and it just so happens that today is a holiday and tomorrow is the morning sun, so Huangfulin had to be called from home.

Li Ke was not at all surprised by the problems of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. In ancient times, because of the problem of accounting records and Chinese character records, it was much easier to falsify the accounts than in modern times. Many people may not be able to find the problem after decades of accounts.

Especially when learning ancient numerology is still very difficult, in fact, the study of numerology in ancient China is not weak, but Li Ke has read the mathematics books of this era, and the study of numerology is not weak, but he wants to learn numerology It was too difficult in ancient times.

Because there is no punctuation in many literary classics in ancient times, and in order to save paper and other aspects, books have repeatedly saved words, and the same is true for ancient mathematics classics.

In this era, no one can systematically summarize mathematics for you, teaching you step by step from shallow to deep, from simple to complex. Ancient mathematics learning is relatively chaotic.

This caused the threshold of mathematics in ancient times to be very high, at least if you want to learn to be proficient, it is very scary for people who only know ordinary mathematics to fully check the bills and calculate such a huge amount of calculations matter.

This is the power of the times. Many people have studied the highest mathematical achievements in ancient times and feel that modern mathematics is not much more advanced than ancient times. But in fact, whether a certain subject is advanced or not does not depend on how deep its high-end achievements are.

It depends on whether it has formed a complete teaching system and whether it has a complete proof process, especially in mathematics.

Li Ke already knew there was a problem when he asked someone to come over to calculate. In fact, corruption in the Ming and Qing Dynasties was easier to investigate, and it was also related to the progress of mathematics. Mathematics in the Ming and Qing Dynasties have already been counted by experts. , including calculation methods such as abacus calculations were more complete in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

After all, the abacus was only gradually perfected in the late Tang Dynasty.

About an hour later, Huang Fulin rushed over.

"I have seen Your Highness." Huang Fulin didn't know what Li Ke asked him to do.

"Let's see, this is calculated by my people. The accounts of the Ministry of Finance are missing in recent years." Li Ke asked Chang Lin, who had already returned, to hand Huang Fulin the accounts copied by Li Tai according to the Tang Dynasty's writing method.

Huangfulin was stunned for a moment, but he still took it, but when he finished reading, Huangfulin's whole body broke out in cold sweat, and he knelt down on the ground directly: "Your Highness, the minister is guilty, because the minister's supervision is not strict, But these possible corruptions are totally unknown to me."

"Get up, I know this matter has nothing to do with you." Li Ke waved his hand lightly.

Although the Huangfu family is not a big family, it is not too weak, and when it comes to the position of Shangshu, in Datang, there is really no need to embezzle such things.

Of course, there are not many of these things, but this is not something that Huang Fulin can embezzle alone. If they are spread out, these things are not too much.

"Yes..." Huangfulin's forehead was covered with cold sweat, but he didn't dare not get up.

"It's only been four years since you took over the Ministry of Civil Affairs, so it's not all your fault, but, now that you are Minister, and you have such a big problem in your tenure, you can't absolve yourself of the blame, what I said is terrible. Right?" Li Ke asked.

"Your Highness, please punish me." Huang Fulin took a deep breath, bent down and did not dare to raise his head.

"Remember the punishment first. Things always need to be investigated clearly. If the Ministry of Civil Affairs can cooperate properly in the next mission, I can pretend that this incident didn't happen." Li Ke said lightly.

"Yes..." What else could Huang Fulin do?If so much corruption is really investigated, it will be a matter of killing people, and he can only agree if he doesn't want to die.

"Well, when I go back this time, you have to help me investigate a few things." Li Ke said lightly.

"Your Highness, please speak."

"Check how many of the servants, doctors, Yuanwailang, and principals in the Ministry of Civil Affairs have served for more than five years? Record all of these, and then give me a list." Li Ke said lightly, "This way Let me record the length of service and previous positions of all personnel in the Ministry of Civil Affairs."

"Yes." Huang Fulin took a deep breath, he didn't have any resistance, he could only do what Li Ke said.

"Okay, just pretend you don't know about this. You can go." Li Ke waved his hand and said.

Huang Fulin left without saying anything.

After Huang Fulin left, Li Ke sighed, hey, I'm not destined to be a completely bad person. Sitting in this position, I can't really play badly, with so many people watching.

I'm so bored!

Thinking of this, Li Ke became angry when he saw Li Tai next to him. Although his nose was still bruised and his face was swollen, Li Ke reached out and slapped him on the head.

Li Tai: "???"

Everyone in Li Tai is stupid, it's not the third brother, why are you hitting me if you have nothing to do?It's just that when he looked over and saw Li Ke's unfriendly eyes, Li Tai resolutely confessed, and he looked down at the memorial directly.

"What are you looking at, first you understand these things for me. As a prince, you can't even do math? I just have a test paper here, and you did it." Li Ke went straight from the drawer next to his desk. It took out a test paper and patted it in front of Li Tai.

This test paper was left by Li Zhi before. He is now taught by the teacher transferred from Li Ke's side.

Li Tai: "..."

Looking at the numbers on the test paper, Li Tai's head started to hurt.

But what Li Tai didn't know was that there was another person like him in Chang'an City at this moment.

Wu Jue had the same expression as Li Tai at the moment. She looked numbly at the numbers on the paper in front of her and the things that needed to be calculated. Is this... a thing for people to read?

She came to find Li Yan to go out shopping together, just as Li Yan was studying, Wu Jue took a curious look, and then saw this scene.
