Great Tang Broom Star

v2 Chapter 578: Compete

  Chapter 578

  Yongzhou Prefecture, located in Guangdefang, exploded.

   "People from Duke Lu's family are here."

   "The Duke of E has also come."

   "..."

  Chang Tao looked panic-stricken, "Why is this? Hurry up, hurry up and ask."

   "Yeah, I want to immigrate, the whole family will go, why not?"

   "Hurry up!"

   Messed up!

   The petty officials swear that they have never seen the children of the rich and powerful emigrate so actively, the key is Anxi!

   For the common people, Anxi is now a virgin land fraught with dangers, what the **** are you going to do in Anxi?

   But the children of the rich and powerful are here.

  Looking at the swollen nose and swollen face from the beating, he clamored to immigrate.

   Several powerful children squatted together and muttered.

   "Ah Weng said he had to go, if he didn't go, his leg would be broken."

   "Then break the leg!"

   "I thought so too, but Aunt said that even the guy's business is over, so he can't come!"

   "I'm a concubine. Aye gave me 200,000 yuan to go to Anxi to set up my own family. He also told me that I would stay away from my family, and I will treat it as a guest when I come to Chang'an..."

"me too."

  “I just muttered a few words and was beaten severely.”

   "It's branched."

"yes!"

   "It's branched."

  …

   Jia Ping'an had a splitting headache when he woke up. Who said that drinking grain wine doesn't cause a headache?

  Last night, Yu Chigong suddenly broke out, pouring wine pots one by one, Li Ji couldn't escape.

   No, Yu Chigong was staring at Li Jiguan last night, with the intention of seeing Li Ji's true face after drinking too much. But Li Ji remained the same when he was drunk.

  Jia Pingan was fed for several rounds, but in the end he still kept his sanity, returned home and vomited, and then fell asleep until now.

"Drank too much."

  He was so weak even to moan.

   "Husband, wake up!"

   Wei Wushuang opened the door and entered.

   "Don't remember."

   Wei Wushuang covered his face with a towel, and wiped it.

   "The bald skin is broken."

  Is this woman trying to rub me to death? Jia Pingan was powerless to resist.

   Wei Wushuang went out.

   Jia Pingan looked at the roof in a daze.

  I drank too much last night, Liang Jianfang said that the emperor is powerful.

yes!

   Li Zhi is really amazing.

  From the little transparency when he ascended the throne, he took back the power step by step. Now the emperor of the court is more powerful than ever, and he can wrestle with Changsun Wuji and others.

   This is a positive sign.

In the process, sister became Li Zhi's political assistant, and actively participated in it, such as wooing Li Yifu and others, and arranging them to do things that Li Zhi could not do well. rise.

  Look at Queen Wang, her life has been smooth and smooth: Crown Princess, Queen, she has everything except no children.

   But she was on the wrong track.

  Empress Changsun was able to win the respect of the late emperor not only because of her position as empress, but because of her ability. She can assist the late emperor from another angle, this is the value of her existence.

  The existence of Queen Wang is worthless, plus the background, and the support of Changsun Wuji and others... These seem to be poison at the moment, but Queen Wang was regarded as a treasure at the beginning.

  Ordinary women only need to care for their husbands and children, but the queen is different. A worthless queen is a vase.

  —Emperors don't need vases!

  So Wang and Queen fell down.

  Wu Mei is very smart.

  She was inconspicuous during the first emperor's time, but after she entered the Ganye Temple, she didn't know what kind of mental journey she went through, and she changed from then on.

  She knew that she had no background, so the only place she could stand was to have children and help the emperor.

   Now she has two sons, this is the foundation.

   Then she actively advised the emperor and became his staff.

  Look, not only Li Yifu, but even Lao Xu has been actively approaching Wu Mei recently.

   All of this is under Li Zhi's acquiescence, even instigation.

  Emperors always have multiple masks, and Wu Mei is just another side of him.

   Isn't it tiring to live like this?

  The door opened, a head poked in, and he stretched out his hand impatiently.

   "Aye! Aye!"

  The little padded jacket is here.

  Su Ho came in with a bag in his arms, frowning, "It smells like wine."

   "Bullshit."

   Jia Pingan stretched out his hand while lying on the bed.

  Su Ho put down the bag. As soon as I got on the bed, I was happy, climbing and climbing, like climbing a mountain, I climbed to Jia Ping'an's chest, and then grabbed Jia Ping'an's cheek, shaking vigorously, "Aye! Aye!"

   Jia Pingan grinned, "Help!"

   So Doudou giggled.

  After playing with my daughter for a while, Jia Pingan got up.

   Wash and eat breakfast.

   Then slowly go to the Yamen.

  On the road, the sergeants of the Jinwu Guard were patrolling vigorously, reflecting Jia Pingan's exceptional laziness.

   Arriving at Baiqi, Ming Jing and Cheng Da are ready, and a group of brothers are waiting outside...

  Boss, we were all waiting for you, but you were late.

Ming Jing said murderously: "I think this matter will relocate those farmers with few fields... The fields in many places in the Tang Dynasty have been allotted, and some people have allotted their fields when they become adults, and they are allotted to places more than ten miles away. It is so ridiculous , why not emigrate?"

  Datang implements the land equalization system. As long as you are born, you will have your share of the land.

   Such a system allows the people to be carefree, and they don't think about their children and grandchildren at all.

   But soon, once the population expands, the fields will not be enough.

  Ming Jing and Cheng Da studied for a long time, and felt that they should give priority to persuading these people to immigrate.

  This time, Ming Jing will definitely show her face.

  She raised her head fiercely.

   Jia Pingan yawned, "It's all gone."

  He entered the duty room, and Ming Jing looked at Cheng Da with a confused face behind him, "What does this mean?"

   Cheng Da shook his head.

  At this time, the brother who went to inspect the Forbidden Garden came back.

   "Marquis of Wuyang!"

   "What is it?"

   Jia Ping'an is still weak after a hangover.

   "Marquis of Wuyang, it's spread all over the city... A lot of rich and powerful children went to Yongzhou Prefecture, saying that they want to immigrate with their families!"

  Ming Jing was taken aback, "The children of the rich and powerful immigrated?"

   There was a yawn from inside, "Wait and see."

   Messed up!

  Li Yifu is discussing matters.

   "Haiqi still didn't move."

  The confidant laughed: "Is Jia Ping'an delaying because of the queen's love?"

  Li Yifu said indifferently: "He procrastinates the old man and doesn't care about it. Naturally, the censor will come to impeach him."

  There was a knock on the door outside.

   "What is it?"

  Li Yifu smiled.

  The little official who came in said: "Li Shilang, the news just arrived, some rich and powerful children said that they want to immigrate to Anxi."

  Li Yifu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "All those?"

   "There are those from the Duke of E, and those from the Duke of Lu..."

   Li Yifu suddenly turned pale and waved his hands.

  The little official went out.

  Li Yifu's smile couldn't hold back anymore, he punched the table with his fist, "Old man... defeated!"

  The confidant was puzzled, "Why did the minister say that?"

  Another confidant looked ugly, "The people of Tang Dynasty have never lacked courage and refused to go to Anxi...the main reason is that it is not good there. But now that the children of the rich and powerful are taking the initiative to immigrate to Anxi, those people will inevitably ask Anxi what is the benefit..."

   "Anxi is a place of trade, and it is also a place of the Four Wars. Trade can make money, and a place of the Four Wars can make meritorious service."

   "But we have persuaded all of these!"

   "It's useless for us to persuade you. Once the rich and powerful children go... it will work better than our tongue."

  Someone slapped his head, "No wonder he didn't move. There is no need to persuade the children of the rich and powerful, as long as the children of the rich and powerful go forward, the common people will feel... If Anxi is not good, how can the rich and powerful arrange for their children to go?"

   This is live advertising, more effective than any persuasion.

  Li Yifu was silent.

   Everyone looked at him and gradually became silent.

  Li Yifu led everyone around, but very few people responded.

  Jia Ping'an and Baiqi didn't move, but the common people...

   Someone outside is muttering.

   "A lot of people went to the state to ask about immigration!"

   "Yes! A relative in my family also came to ask me just now. Where did I know, I asked him to go to the prefecture to ask."

   "Didn't Li Shilang do this before? He knows!"

   "He knows..."

  The voice could not be heard, Li Yifu got up and walked to the window, opened some windows gently, and saw several officials walking towards the outside.

   "But he screwed up..."

   "Later... Marquis of Wuyang..."

   "..."

  Li Yifu felt tightness in his chest.

   "Go ask..."

what?

  Everyone was confused.

   Someone thought of something and said in a low voice, "Go and ask those rich and powerful children why they are willing to immigrate to Anxi."

  Li Yifu stood by the window, watching the man go and come back.

   "Earlier, E Guogong and others went to the memorial, saying that his children have enjoyed wealth and honor for many years, and it is their duty to defend the country and defend the border..."

  Li Yifu took a deep breath, "This matter... that's all, I'm entering the palace."

  Li Yifu immediately entered the palace.

  The news has reached Li Zhi.

"The Memorial of E Guogong said that the children of the family have enjoyed wealth and honor for many years, forgetting the hardships of their fathers and grandparents, and gradually transformed into **** children. Now that the Tang Dynasty has expanded its territory, Anxi urgently needs immigrants, so that those children whose bones have been rusted by wealth and honor can go Anxi breaks through and defends the border for the country..."

  Wang Zhongliang put down the memorial and stood with his hands tied.

"What E Guogong said... is he disappointed in his own children?" Li Zhi smiled, "Yuchi Baolin is just guarding the house, and has no ability to open up. He asked his children to go to Anxi at the moment. First, he told me, This is the loyalty of the Yuchi family. Second, the children are divided to Anxi at this moment. In the future, the children of Chang’an will lose their fortunes. At least there will be one in Anxi that can inherit the Yuchi family... The loyalty is given, and the Yuchi family has a century-old plan. The best of both worlds, I will inevitably want Applause."

   Is that so?

  Wang Zhongliang couldn't help praising: "Your Majesty is wise."

  This idiot!

  Li Zhi glanced at him, "Afterwards, there are the children of Duke Lu's family... The children of the rich and powerful gathered in the prefecture today, just to immigrate...Go and ask."

  Wang Zhongliang went.

  Come back later, excitedly said: "Your Majesty, many people went to ask about immigration, and said on the spot that there are countless people going to Anxi!"

  The event is settled!

  Li Zhi is in a good mood, "Immigrating to Anxi is a great plan for the country. It is related to the long-term peace and stability of the Western Regions, and it is also related to the Tang Dynasty's offensive in the Western Regions. This is definitely the case, and I am very happy!"

   "But why do the rich and powerful work together?"

  There was more suspicion in Li Zhi's eyes, and the emperor's suspicion instinct broke out.

   "Your Majesty, I heard that the Marquis of Wuyang hosted a banquet for all the veterans in the Chang'an cafeteria yesterday."

   Li Zhi was startled, but immediately understood.

   "I said he didn't move after accepting this matter, so that's how it is!"

  In the past, he had always looked up to his elder brothers and never thought of a prince or emperor at all.

  But with the downfall of the prince, Li Tai was unlucky, and he became a fisherman instead.

  Emperor Xian immediately began to train him himself, but after all, the time was too short.

  So he has to figure out many things by himself.

   "Li Yi's mansion said that the manpower was too small to persuade the people. But Jia Pingan didn't move, but the people flocked..."

  Li Zhi understood a truth, "If you want the people to comply with government orders, you must first take the lead. The children of the rich and powerful will take the lead to go to Anxi, and the people will naturally feel at ease... The people are ignorant and must be guided..."

  He felt he saw a wider world.

   "Forcing the people to do things is certainly possible, but it is not as good as setting an example. Acting like an example...the ruler and the people are of one mind!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

  The road to becoming an emperor is long, and countless challenges are like obstacles in the way. You must overcome them one by one to defeat them.

   In order to defeat them, the emperor must continue to improve.

  At this moment, Li Zhi felt that he had realized a concept.

"When the late emperor was there, he once said that the king is as light as a boat, and the people are as heavy as water. The people are like water, which can carry a boat or overturn it. Forcing the people to do things is to pressurize the water... After a long time, it will inevitably boil. But setting an example can make The people are happy and sincere, and the monarch and the people are at peace."

  There was joy in his eyes.

   "Your Majesty, Zhongshu Li Shilang is asking to see you."

   Li Zhi's train of thought was interrupted.

   Li Yifu came in and pleaded guilty, "I am incompetent."

   Li Zhi looked at him, "You are incompetent in this matter!"

"yes."

   Li Yifu was in charge of this matter, but the result was disappointing.

   But if he can't stand it, he will throw the pot!

   A pot was thrown on Jia Ping'an's head out of thin air.

   Then he was secretly proud, thinking that he had stabbed Jia Pingan.

   Unexpectedly, Jia Pingan didn't move at all, and there was an endless stream of people applying for immigration.

   Let's judge!

  Li Zhi looked at him, with dissatisfaction in his eyes, "I ordered you to be in charge of immigration, but you only know how to persuade people. I even heard that some people threatened people to emigrate, but what happened?"

   As a result, no one cares.

  Li Yifu knelt down, "I...incompetent!"

  His back was wet with sweat, worried that the emperor would drive him off in a fit of anger.

  Now that he has taken refuge in the emperor and empress, he has a bad impression in the hearts of the courtiers. The original smile hides a knife and the nickname of Li Mao, and now he has another title of sycophant.

  If the emperor wants to deal with him, all he needs is a hint. Immediately, the courtiers will rush to impeach him, and he can be knocked out of the dust without further action from the emperor.

   Is this the price for becoming the emperor's confidant?

  Li Yifu lowered his head, his eyes were brighter.

   This old man wants power!

  This loyal dog looks a little unconvinced...

   Then it's time to tap!

  Li Zhi said indifferently: "Jia Ping'an solved the immigration problem with just one meal, but you worked hard and mobilized everyone. If there was any disagreement, you would argue in every possible way. Is this the way of a minister?"

  Using one courtier to beat another courtier, Li Zhi is very skillful in using such methods.

  Li Yifu bowed his head, "I...incompetent!"

  He lost in this matter and there was no room for rebuttal. He could only admit that he was incompetent.

   Li Zhi waved his hand, and then went to Wu Mei.

   "Your Majesty."

  Wu Mei seems to have got the news, "Is it okay for the concubine to hear about the emigration?"

  Li Zhi nodded, "Jia Pingan invited all the old men to drink yesterday, and then the old men left their families and their children immigrated, which led the people."

  Wu Mei smiled and said: "The concubine knows Ping'an's ability, so she can't be wrong."

   Li Zhi suddenly looked down at her feet.

   "Your Majesty..."

  A woman's feet belong to privacy!

  Wu Mei was also a little shy.

   "I still have something to do."

  After Li Zhi left, Wu Mei saw that Shao Peng hesitated to speak, so she said, "Speak up if you have something to say."

   "Empress, this matter...Your Majesty will watch, Empress...Marquis of Wuyang..."

  Xiao Jia just kicked you a few times!

  The last time the emperor made a move, the queen called Jia Pingan into the palace, kicked him a few times, and was made a joke by the palace.

  The emperor means: he was wrongly kicked by you.

  Wu Mei was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

  Outside, Li Hong came with Cao Yingxiong. Hearing the laughter, he breathed a sigh of relief, "There is nothing to do today, so you can go back."

  Cao Yingxiong agreed, and then left.

  But he thought something was wrong.

   Let me go back today if there is nothing to do.

  If there is something...then I must follow in. But what am I going to do?

  Out of the palace, he saw Jia Pingan and Li Jingye talking, so he leaned over.

   "Hero!"

  Jia Pingan asked: "Is the prince okay recently?"

   "Alright!"

  Cao Yingxiong couldn't help asking: "Brother, will the prince's servant be beaten?"

  How did Jia Pingan know.

  But he thought of the servants in those TV dramas...it seems that they are all unlucky!

   "If you are beaten, you will be beaten."

  Cao Yingxiong gave up.

  Jia Ping'an and Li Jingye continued talking.

   "...I said I wanted to immigrate to Anxi, but A Weng was furious and beat me up."

   Li Jingye was very sad.

   Jia Ping’an’s head was full of black lines, “Those people are all descendants of concubines, and you are a prince… If you are not killed, it is considered that the British Duke is merciful.”

   "But I just want to leave home." Li Jingye squatted down, very melancholy, "I want to go to Anxi alone, and fight there by myself..."

   "But you, Aunt, are getting old."

  This is the difference in China, children and grandchildren should be concerned about the elderly. Either you can take good care of the elderly, or you can take the elderly with you.

   This will certainly cause trouble for the children and grandchildren, but everyone will grow old.

   When you are old, this custom will allow you to enjoy your old age comfortably.

   "Ah Weng, I think I can live another fifty years."

  Li Jingye left with regret.

   At this moment, Tang Xu just entered Chang'an City.

   "Yeah is finally back."

  The accompanying officials bid farewell and went to report separately.

  Tang Xu brought a lot of things, so he excused something and went home first.

  The home is still the same, and the door looks the same.

  He knocked lightly on the door.

   "Who is it?"

   When a familiar voice came, Tang Xu suppressed his excitement and held his throat, "Mr. Zhang, I saw your husband."

  The sound of hurried footsteps came, and the door opened...

  Ms. Zhang asked eagerly, "Where is he..."

   Husband and wife face each other, Zhang's head is full of black lines, but it dilutes the excitement and strangeness of reuniting after a long absence.

   "Husband!"

   "Where are Dalang and Erlang?"

"at home!"

  Two children came over, and after rubbing for a while, Tang Xu put the things down, "I still have to go to the Ministry of Officials, I'll be back later."

   Mrs. Zhang squinted at him, and suddenly said, "Da Lang Erlang, let's go outside and play."

   Not good!

  Tang Xu saw the light in his wife's eyes, and couldn't help feeling a little weak.

  —When Mrs. Zhang squinted at him, she probably wanted to squeeze him!

  The two children got the chance to go out and play, and they had fun.

  As soon as they left, Mrs. Zhang approached, "Husband..."

  Tang Xu felt like a fruit from Monan...

   No, it's the squashed melon rinds from Monan.

  Guapi Tang Xu is back.

  Cheng Da opened his mouth to meet the wind, and when he opened his mouth, it was Wuxianglou.

   Ming Jing responded.

   "Why do you have to go to the brothel?"

  Cheng Da took it for granted: "Baiqi always goes to Wuxianglou."

  Whether you go or not is a matter of one sentence!

  Cheng Da said very considerately: "I used to go with Shao Zhongguan when he was there, although it was that... but at least I can live off my eye addiction."

   This is Shao Peng's self-mockery before.

  But Mingjing is a woman!

  Jia Ping'an felt that Cheng Da's ability to kill was no less than that of Li Jingye.

   "Cheng Da!"

  Cheng Da shivered.

  I...I only like women!
