Ang Lee cooperated very well. This was clearly his own idea, but he unconditionally gave it to Li Yu. Moreover, he did not receive any benefits in order to help Li Yu gain a certain amount of prestige.
However, because this idea was not too unprecedented, it was completely in line with the logic of this era. Therefore, even if Li Yu was the first to propose it, it would not arouse suspicion from outsiders. They would only think that Li Yu was smart enough.
"The only feasible way? That's also a way. Build a parking lot under the road? Underground parking? Did you really come up with this idea? "
Li Longji frowned and thought for a long time. Suddenly, he looked at Li Yu and asked.
Li Yu was shocked, thinking that Li Longji had discovered something. However, he was confident in his acting skills. At the same time, he had also done a lot of research over the past few days. He was very familiar with the many details of the underground parking lot, as well as the problems of how to construct the design. No matter what questions Li Longji asked, he could answer them freely. Therefore, there was no need to worry at all.
When I first came up with this idea, I also felt that it was not very feasible. It would be troublesome if the road collapsed, but based on the current situation, I really can't think of a better idea. Therefore, I can only think of a way in the underground parking lot. These days, I have visited many people, including the craftsmen who built the Yellow River Bridge and the officials of the Ministry of Works of the imperial court. With their support, I am a little more at ease and have a little more confidence. Today, with the affirmation of Assistant Minister Li, I am completely at ease. This underground parking lot will definitely work. "
Li Yu said a lot in one breath. The expression on his face was quite confident.
After listening to Li Yu's description, Li Longji's face was full of comfort. He did not doubt Li Yu's words. Building an underground parking lot was not an unprecedented idea. Perhaps many people had thought of this idea before, but they felt that it was too difficult to implement. It consumed too many resources, was too dangerous, and was uncontrollable. Therefore, they felt that it was not very realistic and did not dare to propose it.
At the beginning, Li Yu had the same idea as everyone, but in the end, Li Yu solved all the problems in the construction of the underground parking lot one by one through perseverance. With such effort, even if the underground parking lot was messed up in the end, Li Longji would not blame him. After all, Li Yu's efforts to solve the parking problem were enough to affirm him.
Not only Li Longji, but Wei Jiansu, Chen Xilie, and others behind him also cast appreciative glances at Li Yu. They felt that Li Yu was a promising child. When encountering a difficult problem, he did not choose to escape, but chose to find a way to solve the problem. This was very commendable for an imperial grandson who lived like a prince.
"Minister Wei, Minister Chen, what do you think?"
Li Longji looked at the ministers behind him with a happy expression and asked.
Chen Xilie's official position was the highest, so he naturally had to be the first to answer. However, this sly old man generally did not dare to speak carelessly, so as not to cause trouble for himself. This time was no exception.
"I think that Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon is very thoughtful and is a model for the imperial grandson generation. As for this underground parking lot, because there is no such precedent in this dynasty and the previous dynasty, the specific situation still needs to be considered."
Chen Xilie, the sly old man, first complimented Li Yu to make the emperor happy. At the same time, he also affirmed the idea of the underground parking lot. However, whether it was feasible or not, he was nothing more than a judgment. Naturally, he was vague. Saying something was equivalent to not expressing his position. The word "consider" was enough to express his attitude.
Wei Jiansu did not hesitate. He had read the memorial written by Li Yu. He really felt that Li Yu's idea was very insightful. As long as it was done seriously, it could be done well.
At the thought that the parking problem that had troubled Chang 'an for more than a year would be solved soon, Wei Jiansu was very excited. As officials, they naturally hoped to solve the problem for the people. This was their duty and at the same time, it was also their dream.
"Your Majesty, I think that Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon's idea is very good. We can give it a try. First, we can solve the problem of Ping Kang Square. Then, if the effect is good, we can promote it in many places in Chang 'an and solve this problem in one fell swoop."
Wei Jiansu answered affirmatively.
"Your Majesty, I also agree. Since Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon has thought of everything that can be thought of, it is better to let Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon be in charge of this matter! Our Ministry of Works will fully cooperate. "
"Your Majesty, I second that."
Several important ministers all expressed their support. Moreover, they supported Li Yu to be in charge of this matter. This was also their shrewdness. They not only complied with the Emperor's wishes, but also did Li Yu a favor. Most importantly, they did not know much about this project. If they were to take the lead and mess it up, they would not be able to account for it. Even if it succeeded in the end, their credit would not be big. Most of the credit would go to Li Yu. So, why should they join in the fun?
As for assisting Li Yu, it was just a matter of giving what Li Yu wanted. For example, building the underground parking lot required a lot of strategic resources and money from the national treasury. These were all their responsibilities. They could give support. As for the specific construction details, they had nothing to do with it.
Since all the ministers supported Li Yu unreservedly, what else could Li Longji say? Of course, he had to agree. Moreover, Li Yu's plan was not very big. It was just a project in the downtown area of Ping Kang Fang. Even if it failed, it would not cause too much chaos in Chang 'an City.
"Well, since all my beloved ministers are so supportive of Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon, then the underground parking lot of Ping Kang Fang will be handed over to Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon. My beloved ministers, please do your best to assist."
Li Longji expressed his position happily.
"Thank you for your trust, Imperial Grandfather. I will not let you down."
Li Yu finally got a chance to perform, and he happily thanked him for his kindness.
"Good, good, good. You must do a good job. Hahaha!"
Li Longji laughed happily. Just now when he saw the Princess injured, he was full of anger. Now that his anger had finally dissipated, he was in a good mood.
However, although he was in a good mood, Yang Guozhong was in a very bad mood. He had personally beaten his servant to death, which could be regarded as an explanation to the Emperor. But after all, this matter had a great impact on him and was likely to affect his political future. So, how could he not be worried?
The little eunuch had long since conveyed the news of him beating the evil servant to death to the Zi Chen Palace Hall. However, Yang Guozhong's journey back was abnormally difficult. He practically had to move step by step. Midway, he even stopped to rest.
In fact, for Yang Guozhong, who was in the prime of his life, walking was not a difficult thing. At this moment, the reason why he felt that it was difficult to walk was naturally because he had something on his mind. He was trying his best to think about how to deal with the current dilemma, how to reverse the situation, and how to replace Li Linfu as soon as possible and become the new Prime Minister of the Tang Empire.
Imperial Concubine, this was the only life-saving straw that Yang Guozhong could think of. For so many years, the reason why he could have a meteoric rise and be appreciated by the Emperor was entirely because of Imperial Concubine. At this moment, he was only one step away from being the first senior official of the Tang Empire. It would be a great loss if his family's great future was delayed because of an evil servant.
Moreover, what the evil servant did was not ordered by him. Even the evil servant did not know that the other party was the Princess. All this was just a misunderstanding.
But Yang Guozhong could never explain these words to the Emperor. The more he explained, the more disgusted the Emperor would be. Only when he sincerely admitted his guilt, the Emperor would be a little relieved. Therefore, he admitted his guilt without hesitation and beat the evil servant to death with his own hands.
But just because he could not explain any injustice, it did not mean that Yang Yuhuan could not explain it. If he wanted to explain his injustice, only Yang Yuhuan could personally persuade the Emperor to reason with him in front of the Emperor and clear his guilt. Then, the Emperor would be happy and perhaps have a better impression of him.
The Imperial Palace was a very hierarchical place. There were many people in it, and everyone had their own duties. They could not overstep their duties at will and could not speak carelessly. Otherwise, it was very likely that they would be killed.
However, the Imperial Palace had never been a place where information was blocked. Any rustling of leaves in the wind would quickly spread to the rear court, allowing almost everyone to know.
For example, today, Princess Guanning and her party drove straight into Zichen Palace Hall. Such a big matter naturally spread to the backyard very quickly. And the so-called matter of the Princess breaking into the Imperial Palace was also quickly spread. As the most respected woman in the Imperial Palace, Yang Yuhuan naturally did not lack eyes and ears.
When she first learned that the Princess had broken into Zichen Palace Hall, she did not care too much. She knew very well that the Emperor doted on this daughter very much. Perhaps the Princess missed the Emperor and it was not a big matter. The few sisters who came to accompany her did not think much of it.
But when she heard that the Princess was injured and was beaten by a servant of Yang Guozhong's family, her heart suddenly could not calm down. A servant of the Yang family actually beat the Princess. This was simply going against the heavens.
Yang Yuhuan and her three sisters were all shocked. Although their current status was very high, all of this was given to them by the Emperor. Without the Emperor's support, their Yang family was nothing. Therefore, they had to know in their hearts that they could not forget their surname because of a momentary favor.
"This evil servant is too bold. He actually beat the Princess. This is troublesome. His Majesty loves Princess Guanning the most."
"What should we do? Ever since the Imperial Consort was favored, our Yang family's status in the capital has been rising rapidly. If such a small matter affects us, then it will not be good. "
"Don't worry! It's just an evil servant. Just kill him. "
The madams said.
"Imperial Consort, the Imperial Censor personally beat the servant to death. His Majesty's anger has not yet subsided and he chased the Prince Consort away. The Princess will be staying in the Imperial Palace for a while."
A little eunuch ran over to report the situation.
"His Majesty is furious. Sister, you should go and take a look!"
"Shouldn't we go and visit the Princess and prepare some gifts?"
"No, the Princess has just been injured and is probably still angry. If we go and visit, wouldn't we be asking for trouble?"
"Each of you has an idea. It's a headache. Let's go and take a look first!"
Yang Yuhuan decided to go to the Zichen Palace to take a look at the situation before making a plan.
Just as they arrived in the vicinity of the Purple Imperial Palace Hall, they coincidentally discovered Yang Guozhong, who was struggling to move.
Yang Guozhong, who had been walking with his head down, did not notice Yang Yuhuan and the others. It was not until Yang Guozhong softly called out that he saw the four sisters nearby.
Seeing Yang Yuhuan, Yang Guozhong acted as if he had seen his savior. His legs were no longer sore and he ran over with a few quick steps, but his posture was somewhat inelegant.
"Why is Brother in such a sorry state?"
Yang Yuhuan said reproachfully.
Yang Guozhong did not have time to care about his image and hurriedly explained the ins and outs of the matter. Then, he kept complaining that he had been harmed by his servant. Even if he personally beat the servant to death, it would not be enough to relieve the hatred in his heart.
"It's all because of your lack of discipline. Otherwise, your servant would not be so domineering. Alright, I will tell His Majesty about your grievances. You should go back to the Zichen Palace first! I'm a married woman and it's not convenient for me to go to places like the main hall. "
Yang Yuhuan said.
"Yes, Imperial Concubine."
Yang Guozhong bowed gratefully and then walked towards the Zichen Palace. Yang Yuhuan also left with the three sisters.
However, Li Longji was not completely appeased. Seeing that Yang Guozhong had returned, he did not say anything and directly sent all the ministers to work, leaving only Ang Lee alone.
Yang Guozhong had no choice but to leave and return to his own yamen.
Just like that, Ang Lee was left alone. As for why the Emperor wanted him to be left alone, Ang Lee was not very clear.
"I'm afraid that old fellow Li Linfu is not going to make it."
Li Longji sighed and said nonsensically.
Ang Lee heard this and was slightly taken aback. Then, he said, "The Right Prime Minister is indeed very ill. I went to see him a few days ago and I'm afraid he doesn't have much time left."
"He has been the Prime Minister for more than twenty years and has helped me a lot in the court. If not for him, I would not be so carefree!"
Li Longji said and paused. Then, he continued, "Genu! Genu, although the world calls you a treacherous minister, in my heart, you will always be my right-hand man and my good brother. "
Ang Lee was speechless and did not know what to say. He just listened quietly.
Li Longji said a few more words and then asked, "Minister Li, who in this court, do you think can replace Genu as the new Right Prime Minister?"
Ang Lee had no choice but to answer directly. "I think that Wei Jiansu is not bad and can take on this role."
Obviously, Ang Lee would not recommend Yang Guozhong no matter what. After all, this guy was a bit of an idiot. Moreover, the Emperor still had complaints about Yang Guozhong.
