Chapter 1167

Seeing Merton's crisp recognition, Yu Zhining couldn't help but rejoice and chase after the victory and said: "please your majesty clearly observe that everything in Gaochang should have been the booty of the Tang Dynasty, and the Mohist son swallowed two kinds of secret skills worth thousands of gold without permission, and please punish your Majesty in accordance with the military law."

"Fart!" Qin Qiong said angrily. "Since ancient times, the booty has been cattle, sheep, gold, silver and precious stones. It has never been heard that someone regarded secret skills as booty. Such punishment has never been seen since ancient times."

Many courtiers nodded one after another. Secret skills can be said to be a kind of knowledge, which is valuable to useful people and worthless to useless people. Since ancient times, I'm afraid the booty has not listed knowledge.

"Anything of value can become booty. The value of wine is not only gold, but even Wanguan. The move of the Mohist school is more guilty than annexing some gold and silver." Yu Zhining said reluctantly.

Many ministers agreed with Yu Zhining one after another, mainly because of the prohibition order. The value of wine secret skills suddenly increased sharply. How can people not be jealous when such a wealth collection fell into the hands of Mohist Zi.

Li Shimin couldn't help frowning. He didn't expect that the mojiazi was caught by the small tail again, which made him in a dilemma.

Merton jumped out and said frankly: "it's also wrong for you to say this. I did take the wine secret skill from Gaochang, but it's not a booty misappropriation, but an exchange. The raisins that have been popular in the Tang Dynasty recently are the secret skill specially invented by me for Gaochang in exchange for the wine secret skill."

"Exchange!" all officials were stunned. The Mexican family's embezzlement of booty was a big taboo. If it was to exchange their own ink skills for Gaochang's wine secret skills, it would be an equivalent exchange, and naturally it would be innocent.

"A bunch of nonsense, a little raisin, how can it be compared with the secret skills of wine worth thousands of dollars?" Yu Zhining laughed angrily.

Merton shook his head and said: "The value is not whether others think it is worth it or not, but whether the two sides are worth it. Taking the secret skill of wine as an example, although Gaochang is famous all over the world, few people are transported to Datang every year due to the long journey. Although the unit price is expensive, they can't make a lot of money. However, the dry grape is not. It is easy to store and transport. It's even more valuable. The production method is simple and popular Everyone can make it. Relying on the vast market of Datang, everyone can get rich here. Do you say that in the eyes of Gaochang people, is it the secret skill of raisins or wine with high value? "

Qu Zhisheng respectfully saluted Merton and said, "there are many secret skills of raisins better than wine. Although Qu is no longer the king of Gaochang, he would like to thank Hou Mo for 100000 Gaochang people."

The secret skill of wine can only enrich a small number of people, while the secret skill of raisin can enrich everyone in Gaochang. It is natural to see at a glance which is more important.

The ministers nodded one after another. From the perspective of Gaochang, the secret skill of raisins is much higher than that of wine. Gaochang does not suffer in this exchange, although Merton makes more money by using the secret skill of wine in Datang.

"Only in Datang can the wine secret technology have the broadest market, and only in Gaochang can the raisin secret technology play its day. This exchange has no losers and is a win-win situation." Merton solemnly said.

"What about the secret weaving skill? What's your explanation?" an old imperial censor over half a hundred blurted out.

Merton stretched out his hand and said, "Mo didn't want the secret textile skill, but gave it to Majia village."

The old censor became angry. What is the booty of embezzlement? That's because it's valuable. If it's an unwanted thing, I'm afraid it can't be called booty. Naturally, it can't be said to be booty of embezzlement, let alone the textile secret skills of Datang are not inferior to Gaochang.

Yu Zhining took a deep breath and didn't expect that the Mohists had cracked his attacks one after another. However, in his opinion, these Mohists' move was just futile. His third move, the Mohists could not escape anyway.

Yu Zhining takes a deep breath into the airway: "As far as I know, the mission of Mo Jijiu's triumphant return is to escort the Duke of Jincheng county to Chang'an city. However, outside the Yumen pass, Mo Jijiu left the Duke of Jincheng county and went to the 800 Li Han sea to pursue the Tibetan remnant army. After returning from the 800 Li Han sea, he once again left the firearm supervisors and soldiers, used the hands of Mojia village to rush back to Chang'an City from Yumen pass overnight and waited for the firearm supervisor outside Chang'an city , Mo sacrificing wine first ignored the military order of Hou Shangshu and left Jincheng County Duke, and then ignored the military order of the Tang Dynasty. The Lord general abandoned the officers and soldiers, and Wei minister impeached Mo sacrificing wine. He repeatedly ignored the military law and was immediately dismissed for investigation. "

As soon as Yu Zhining's voice fell, the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were quiet.

It's not a matter for mojiazi to leave Jincheng county. The real threat is that mojiazi takes the initiative to return to Chang'an city. Everyone knows that the main reason why mojiazi leaves the firearm supervisor to return alone is that Princess Changle is in labor, but she will not leave the army. It's a fact that Merton and the firearm supervisor separate the soldiers, which is indisputable.

Changsun Wuji suddenly said something to defend Merton: "Lord Yu is a little picky. According to the military order, the firearms supervisor should have returned as scheduled, but he was secretly attacked by Tubo on the way, which is why he didn't return. Moreover, the return of ink sacrifice wine is for Princess Changle, otherwise the weak Princess Changle will miss her and will not endure the pain of production."

Li Shimin nodded slowly. He knew this better than anyone. Compared with sticking to the rules, he was more willing to see the deviant behavior of Mozi. Although he left the soldiers, he rushed back to Datang in time to turn Changle and Motan into safety. As an emperor, Merton's move was naturally wrong, but as a father, Merton's move made him quite happy.

"Which soldier doesn't have a wife and children? If everyone can leave the army and return, where is the military law? Why can our Tang iron cavalry frighten the four sides." Yu Zhining cut the nail and cut the railway.

Hearing the speech, changsun Wuji sighed: "although Changle is my niece, I am very pleased with the behavior of ink offering wine, but the military law is ruthless. Ink offering wine is indeed a violation of the military law. I hope your majesty will think twice."

"I inform your majesty that the Mexican sacrifice is not a matter of war, leaving the soldiers behind, but that the army has triumphed, the soldiers have reached Yumen pass, and the safety of the firearm prison is safe. Please let your majesty go lightly for the sake of the deep love of the Mexican Marquis for Princess Changle." a civil official came forward.

In terms of generals, there are also people who come out more and more: "I inform your majesty that Mo sacrificing wine has broken Gaochang and Tubo, and his military achievements rank first in the western expedition. Please see that for the sake of Mo Hou's efforts to fight for the country, his merits and demerits are equal."

Soon one official after another said that it was strange that although they all pleaded for Merton, none of them was not guilty of Merton.

Seeing this, Li Shimin frowned and said to Merton, "Merton, what excuse do you have?"

In Li Shimin's opinion, the third accusation Merton must be able to deal with it skillfully, and he pushed the boat along the water to expose it.

However, what he didn't expect was that Merton didn't have the slightest excuse, but directly nodded and said, "Weichen has nothing to say."

Immediately, all the ministers looked at Merton with complex eyes. Naturally, they knew that Li Shimin could not blame Merton for this, but Merton did not hesitate to shoulder all the blame.

"Please act impartially!" Yu Zhining took the opportunity to advise.

Other ministers were silent, but this also represented an attitude. After all, Merton's mistake was irrefutable.

"Well, for his own sake, firearm warden offered wine to Morton. He left the soldiers and soldiers of the whole army outside the Yumen pass thousands of miles away and returned to Beijing alone. In order to neglect his duty, Morton is now exempted from the duty of offering wine to the Imperial College. His merits and demerits will be decided after the western expedition." Li Shimin waved his hand.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Yu Zhining bowed down in the tunnel and couldn't help humming in his heart. You think the firearm prison is in your bag, but you don't know how many forces in the court are staring at the first army in the world. The firearm prison is now an ownerless thing. Do you still think you can protect it? "
