Chapter 881

After Li Shimin returned to the palace, the accompanying empress Chang sun naturally returned together. After the next Dynasty, Merton did not leave, but joined Changle and went to the Lizheng hall to pay a visit to empress Chang sun.

"Empress mother!" when Princess Changle saw the empress changsun, she immediately looked like a child. The milk swallow threw herself into the arms of the empress changsun.

Empress Chang sun patted Princess Changle, who looked like a little daughter, and comforted her, "they have all been married. How can they still be like children."

"No matter how old her daughter is, she is a child in front of her mother." Princess Changle said in her mother's arms. Even if Princess Changle gets married, she can still go in and out of the palace often to meet empress changsun. I'm afraid she has never been separated for such a long time.

Although the empress changsun said blame, she couldn't help but show a happy smile on her face.

"Mother, things have improved a lot recently. It seems that Jiuhua Mountain is really good for mother's health." Princess Changle carefully checked the pulse of empress changsun.

"That's true! Jiuhua Mountain has pleasant scenery and beautiful scenery. Coupled with the beautiful water in the mountain, it is a great place for self-cultivation. Although her mother was only there for two months, she also felt relaxed and happy." empress Chang Sun said with joy on her face.

Empress changsun has been in the imperial palace for a long time. Although the scenery in the palace is extremely beautiful, she will be bored when she looks at it. Suddenly she comes to a picturesque treasure land. Her mood is naturally different. Accordingly, she is refreshed and her body naturally recovers well. In addition, the brick road is extremely flat and there is no fatigue of boats and cars. It is much more comfortable to go out and play than before.

Princess Changle nodded with deep understanding. When she spent her honeymoon, she saw the great rivers and mountains of Datang for the first time, just like a caged bird out of trouble. She didn't know how happy she was.

The mother and daughter talked about the scenery along the way. Merton accompanied them and inserted a few words from time to time, which was also very happy.

However, this harmonious scene did not last long. Soon, Li Shimin appeared in the legislative palace. When he saw Princess Changle smiling, he snorted coldly when he saw Merton. Merton, Li Chengqian's reform post station, did a lot of work behind his back. How can he hide it from him.

"Father emperor!" cried Princess Changle in a delicate voice to help Merton out.

Li Shimin smiled and chatted with Princess Changle and empress changsun for a while. Then he got up and said, "say this first. I have something to do with Merton."

Merton quickly got up and followed Li Shimin out of the legislative hall.

Princess Changle in the hall looked at Merton's figure following Li Shimin and couldn't help showing a worried look.

"You're too young to stay!" empress Chang Sun said in her heart as she looked at Princess Changle.

"Don't worry, this is the way they exchange feelings with their son-in-law. Besides, what can your father and emperor do with Merton with their mother?" the eldest Sun Queen comforted.

Princess Changle couldn't help smiling bitterly. I'm afraid there is no such model for Weng's son-in-law in the world.

"Morton, do you know the sin?" Li Shimin shouted coldly as he came out of the Lizheng hall.

"Wei Chen confessed." Merton confessed honestly.

When Li Shimin saw Merton like a hob meat, he was angry and shouted coldly: "the prince has just taken the post of supervisor. He is eager to make contributions. I can understand! And you? I have mentioned you before I left. I want you to be more calm. It's good for you to cooperate with the prince to reform the post station."

Merton knew what would happen today and had already prepared his speech. Now Lang said:

"Your Majesty is wronged! I can't bear to see that the original post station, which is beneficial to the country and the people, is not only a pearl covered with dust, but also a loss for years. It's called the burden of the imperial court. It's a terrible thing!"

"The pearl is covered with dust, and it's a terrible thing! If you don't say ugly Yin today, you can't muddle through." Li Shimin is not moved by Merton's boasting. This is a trick used by all officials in the court. If Li Shimin makes a fuss every time, I'm afraid it's not too much to be surprised every day.

Merton took a deep breath: "in the view of Wei Chen, the post station that should have been beneficial to the country and the people has become a bottomless hole in the court hall. The post station that was enough to keep pace with the six departments is now subordinate to the military department, but the official position is only five grades. The post station is the most underestimated Yamen in the Tang Dynasty."

"Benefit the country and the people! It's enough to keep pace with the six movies!" Li Shimin frowned at Merton. He didn't expect Merton to look so high at the post station, but he didn't know whether it was alarmist or really valued it.

"Yes, the imperial court invests a huge amount of money and food into the post station every year, but the results are few. It is almost idle in ordinary days. Post communication not only benefits people all over the world, but also saves the imperial court a lot of expenses every year. Isn't it beneficial to the country and the people?" Merton said.

Li Shimin said coldly, "what do I think? Your Mohist school has benefited the most? As far as I know, Mohist magazines have been published all over the world through the post station channel, and have benefited more than several times. Dare you say your boy has no selfishness."

Merton was immediately aggrieved and said, "Your Majesty, you have wronged micro minister. Mo magazine has indeed benefited a lot with the help of the post station, but Confucian magazine is not the same. Moreover, for his Royal Highness the prince, micro minister palletized the express plan of Mohism, but suffered a heavy loss!"

"Express plan?" Li Shimin frowned.

Merton briefly explained the express mode of later generations, and finally regretted: "Weichen originally sold the goods of Mojia village to the world with the help of the express plan after the brick road in the world was built, so that everyone in the world can enjoy the benefits of Mojia and will no longer be hoarded by businessmen."

Li Shimin couldn't help but smack at Merton's huge express plan. Mojia village is rich in four-wheel carriages. If the brick road is unblocked, the express plan is highly feasible.

"So you hide your clumsiness, split the express plan, hand over the communication business to the post station, but hide the logistics business with the highest profit." Li Shimin asked.

Merton said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, the most important task of the post station at the moment is to turn losses into profits. A letter is only a fraction of a penny. It is thin and light, and the transportation is convenient. With the existing post station facilities, it can be easily realized with a little investment, while logistics is not. It is large and heavy, and requires a lot of carriages and storage. Firstly, Datang brick road has not been built, the transportation is inconvenient, and secondly, the logistics investment is huge It is impossible to make a profit in a short time, and the prince has only two months,....... "

Merton didn't go on. Li Shimin naturally understood that Li Chengqian wanted to make some achievements in two months. Now it's valuable to be able to balance the revenue and expenditure of the post station.

In fact, Merton still hasn't said something. The "post station" express delivery in later generations can be criticized for its slow speed and often losing pieces. Letters are not convenient for transportation. It's not said that except that the recipient has no interest in others, naturally there won't be many post soldiers who risk stealing letters. At most, they are just stolen stamps.
