Datang: I am the founding general in the beginning

Zhao Ziyun looked indifferent, and said this sentence softly.

But the surrounding officials were shocked.

How much?

1,000 taels?

They thought they had heard it wrong.

"Lord, how much did you just say?"

"This king said that it was a thousand taels of silver, as long as you can guess the purpose of this king's coming here today. "

The thousand taels will be his." "

I heard what Zhao Ziyun said again, exactly.

The courtiers were all shocked, and they all showed very shocked looks.

Even some officials in the distance who did not know the situation knew about the situation here.

A thousand taels, is it too much?

They don't get that much in a year.

In the Tang Dynasty, the main income of officials was more dependent on the fields in addition to salaries.

In the early Tang Dynasty, the salary was not high, and in the middle period, for example, Bai Juyi's salary, to be a nine-rank official and a school secretary, the salary for one month was 16,000 yuan, that is, 16 taels.

In the later period, as the young master of the crown prince and the second rank of the official residence, he had 100,000 yuan a month, that is, 100 taels, and more than 1,200 taels a year.

Even so, he is still an idle official.

But at this time, it was the early days of the Tang Dynasty, and the salary was not high.

Zhao Ziyun's 1,000 taels is enough to save them a year of struggle.

This is still the second and third grade of these officials, and others may be able to come for two years.

This is a very tempting reward.

"Lord Wang, are you serious?" The

eldest grandson Wuji, as the prince of the country, is only a third-rank official, and he has to work hard for a year.

At this time, he was indeed a little tempted, not really for this thousand taels.

Anyway, the emperor hasn't come yet, and it's a rainy day to beat the child, and it's idle to be idle.

Why don't you take advantage of this time to guess, in case you guess correctly, wouldn't it be easy to get this 1,000 taels of silver?

Isn't it fragrant to get this 1,000 taels for nothing?

When other officials heard that there was such a good thing, they all wanted to participate.

One by one, they all gathered around.

"Lord Wang, we can all participate too, right?" an official asked tremblingly.

This kind of person must be someone who has little intersection with Zhao Ziyun on weekdays.

But there was a benefit, and they all poured in.

"Everyone can participate in this matter, as long as you win, you can take this thousand taels.

Hearing Director Zhao say this, some officials began to dance with their eyebrows.

How could they let go of such a good thing?"

"Lord Wang, then I'll come first." Someone

can't wait to start scrambling for answers.

In the crowd, hundreds of officials were surging, all of them swarming towards Zhao Ziyun.

Zhao Ziyun was instantly confused by this momentum.

He didn't expect everyone's enthusiasm to be so high.

"Lord, no, everyone is scrambling to answer, and you can't hear clearly whose answer is right. "

Might as well ask them to write down their answers on a piece of paper and review them."

"If it matches the answer in your heart, you will be rewarded."

Fang Xuanling saw that the scene was starting to be a little chaotic, and he felt that everyone was rushing to the market, so he gave such a way.

"That's not good, Lord Fang, if there are a few answers that are in line with what the prince thinks, then wouldn't everyone have to share the money?" someone asked.

Hearing this, it was also a problem, and Zhao Ziyun remembered it silently in his heart.

He decided to take a big gamble, and he really didn't believe anyone could guess what he thought.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you don't have to fight, you don't have to rob.

"Just do what Master Fang said, if a few of you guess the answer, you don't need to divide the thousand taels. "

This king promises you, and today this king will have a great hemorrhage, and he will receive a thousand taels for one answer.

As soon as Zhao Ziyun said this, the audience was in an uproar.

No one thought that this would be the case, this Zhao Ziyun is simply too rich.

In order to compete for the reward of this thousand taels, everyone began to take action.

They began to look around for pen and ink, trying to guess the answer as soon as possible.

At this time, only Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were beside Zhao Ziyun and did not move.

They were all happy to see such a scene.

This is probably the most lively scene since the last dynasty.

Some of the attendants who arrived in advance also wanted to participate, and they ran back to get pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Zhao Ziyun couldn't help but feel a little funny when he saw their excited faces.

One by one, they scrambled for it, as if the thousand taels of silver should have belonged to them.

But when one of them picked up the pen and just wanted to put it down to write, it found that his head was blank.

How could they know that Zhao Ziyun was here today?

In desperation, they could only write their answers indiscriminately, hoping that the blind cat would meet a dead mouse, and they would have touched the right one?

At this time, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui had been observing Zhao Ziyun all the time, trying to crack the answer from him, because this kind of blind guessing was difficult to guess.

Fang Mou Du has always been observant and insightful.

But at this point they really don't see a single sign.

Zhao Ziyun saw that the two of them did not act, and they were still standing next to him.

"I said, two adults, do you want to give up?"

"Such a good opportunity, everyone is vying to answer, but you two are indifferent. "

Do you all have mines at home?" Zhao

Ziyun asked the two of them in a daze.

Fang Xuanling said curtly: "Lord Wang, let's give up, your thoughts are too profound, and your thoughts are too difficult to guess." "

We can't guess, so why not wait for you to announce the answer?"

Zhao Ziyun was a little speechless when he heard Fang Xuanling say this.

This Nima, there is no mine at home, and he is so unproductive, I don't know how to work hard, what if I really run into it?

But at the same time, I thought about it, these two are really Nima old foxes.

Never do useless work, unlike those people who don't have to think, how many brain cells does this simply save?

The answer will come out in a short time.

Zhao Ziyun took their answers and quickly compared them one by one, and as expected, none of them were right.

Zhao Ziyun shook his head in disappointment.

"Isn't there anything right, Lord, then what is your idea?"

someone stood up and asked.

"Okay, this king will give you another chance, and this king will remind you that the purpose of this king is related to schools in various places. "

Since this king has reminded me, this question is only worth five hundred taels.

Zhao Ziyun looked at the expressions of the ministers and said lightly.

As a result, they all went to write again.

At this time, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui also participated.

After a while, when Zhao Ziyun saw those answers again, he looked very disappointed.

"Is the prince the whole army wiped out again?" Zhao

Ziyun nodded lightly, and everyone began to despair.

"The purpose of this king has been said just now, and it is related to the academy,"

"None of you guessed what this king thought, so this round of rewards is invalid."

As soon as Zhao Ziyun finished announcing the results, Li Shimin left from the inner hall.

When he saw the lively scene, he was a little stunned.

What is the situation? His court has become a vegetable market?

Who dares to do business in the court?

He instantly thought of a person, Zhao Ziyun, is he here today?

Li Shimin looked for Zhao Ziyun's figure in the crowd, and he could see Zhao Ziyun's location at a glance.

It's really related to Zhao Ziyun, if it weren't for him, the court would definitely not be so lively.

"Zhao Ziyun, what are you playing with everyone?" asked

Li Shimin curiously.

"It's nothing, it's just that the minister wants to make a big deal with His Majesty, and I just asked them to guess. "

What do you want to do with me?"

Li Shimin looked at Zhao Ziyun curiously.
