Chapter 132: The Great Stone Gate
"Luanbu!"
"Don't bring me the generous gift I prepared!"
Liu Chang smiled all over his face and stood respectfully in front of Chen Ping.
Chen Ping's face was not the slightest bit surprised, honor and disgrace were not shocked, Liu Chang couldn't see it from the master, but he saw it in Chen Ping.
"Father... The widow should have come to repay you a long time ago, but because Tang Guo was busy with affairs, he couldn't take the time to come to visit, and I hope that the middle father will not blame you. ”
"Don't dare, please take a seat with the king."
Liu Chang and Chen Ping sat facing each other, different from what Luan Bu thought, Liu Chang was very respectful, with his head down, his face full of flattery, showing the villain's virtue at a glance. And Chen Ping actually raised his head, proudly instructed Liu Chang, put his nose on his face, and completely regarded himself as an elder, not at all like his usual behavior.
Luan Bu was a little worried, if the king couldn't help but beat Chen Hou later, should he block it?
When he looked at the two people beside him, Zhao Gong had already prepared to hug the king later, and Zhang Budo had already rolled up his sleeves and waited for the king's order.
However, Liu Changyi was unusual, he was not angry, and when he saw Chen Ping like this, he became more and more humble, and the two of them began to become less like themselves.
"Father... The people of my Tang Kingdom are suffering, Zhang Xiang sent someone to send a letter, saying that half of the people in the country are digging tree roots and cooking them to eat... I know that the middle father is very good at governing the country, but I don't know what strategy he has? ”
"I have been to the Tang Kingdom, before the war, there were many people who fled into the mountains for thieves, and never dared to go out... If the king had ordered that these people be pardoned as thieves and dead, they would have been glad to leave the mountain, as long as their household registration was sufficient... The Tang State can do anything well, and the most important thing in governing the country is people. ”
"If you want to increase the national strength of the Tang Dynasty, the king can start with the household registration, and Zhang Xiang can do it himself, so I don't need to say more, but if the king wants to improve the national strength, he can start from two aspects."
"The first is the tax on people, and the second is medical treatment."
"The king of the people tax also understands, the matter of medical treatment, is to say two points, the king may not know, ordinary people's homes, there are many people who die in childbirth, half of the babies die, if the king can convene the famous doctor and Tang, the disciples of the doctor, distributed all over the place, as long as it can reduce dystocia and prevent premature death, it can make the Tang people prosperous in a short period of time..."
Liu Chang's eyes widened, he didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain, and he would keep these suggestions in his heart.
Your proposal is great, and the rest is mine.
Liu Chang stayed here for a long time in Chen Ping, and it was not until the evening that he said goodbye and left.
Chen Ping personally said goodbye and walked out of the gate, Liu Chang stopped, leaned over in the direction of the gate of the mansion, and saw that there was no reaction left and right, he blinked at Zhang Budo, Zhang Budo hurriedly reacted, and asked loudly: "Why is the king so afraid of Chen Hou?!" ”
"Compared with Cao Xiang and Chen Hou, who is more terrifying?"
"Cao Xiang, of course."
"The widow is not even afraid of Cao Xiang, how can he be afraid of Chen Hou?"
"It's just that the widow can still escape punishment if he kills someone, it's all because of Chen Hou's teachings! If it weren't for Chen Hou, I would have been in Tingwei Prison right now! How can a widow disrespect Chen Hou?! Isn't that right!! ”
Liu Chang said loudly.
Zhang Budo immediately followed, "The king will repay his kindness, which is really admirable!" ”
"Yes!! From now on, the widow will treat Chen Hou as his elder!! Listen to him in everything you do!! Never go against it!! ”
Liu Chang shouted a few words, and turned around and left with the three people.
Walking on the road, Luan Bu smiled bitterly, "King, you are going to roast Chen Hou on the fire." ”
"What's the matter, I am grateful to my middle father! In the future, whoever can't get along with my middle father, I, Liu Chang, will be the first to get around him! ”
"Luan Bu! You send someone to tell the important ministers of the court, in the future, Chen Hou will be the middle father of the widow, let them all be polite to the middle father of the widow, if there is disrespect, my Tang King will not be the first to get around him! ”
"Yui!"
........
"You're doing a great job."
Han Xin stroked his beard proudly, and then said: "In the future, you must remember to be very respectful to Chen Hou, no matter what it is, no matter >>."

Whatever he says, he has to say yes... Don't speak ill of him anywhere, mention him often, compare him with his ministers, and belittle other ministers..."
Liu Chang was stunned for a moment, "Master, you also have a grudge against Chen Ping?" ”
"There is no vendetta... However, if you can tie this man to your chariot, you don't have to be any enemy. ”
"With the master here, I don't have to worry."
"It's different, I can help you deal with your enemy's army, he can directly help you deal with the enemy itself."
"Oh, I see... Master, then he won't solve me by the way, right? ”
Han Xin looked at Liu Chang, who was a little uneasy in front of him, and asked, "What?" Scared? ”
"I wasn't very scared at first, but master, you look down on the ministers on weekdays, and even the Taiwei is a dull villager here with you... But I value Chen Ping so much, I suddenly feel a little uneasy. ”
"Don't be afraid, as long as your grandmother is still there, he has a way to solve you, and he won't solve you... He's a cautious person, even if you beat him up now, he won't solve you... However, it would be difficult to say if he found an opportunity. ”
Liu Chang nodded, and asked again, "Then how does he compare to Liuhou?" ”
"The good art is more positive, and the flat art is more subtle, no matter how high or low."
"Okay, sooner or later, I'm going to get him to my Datang!"
Liu Chang then talked about the matter of pro-soldiers, and Han Xin said proudly: "In the past few days, I have written a few articles on the art of war in my spare time in the mansion... It's all for the sake of the method, which can be sent to the school field and let them learn! If you can learn one percent, it is enough to be a general. ”
Liu Chang's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly picked up the art of war, "Thank you, master!" ”
However, Liu Chang couldn't go out of the city, Liu Ying didn't allow him to go out, so Liu Chang had to hand over the art of war to Luan Bu, "Give this to Liu Bu, let him read it to the soldiers... In addition, go to Shang Fang's place to see how the ink man is doing, and intimidate them by the way, the blueprints are all given to them, if they can't be done, I will expel them first, and then kill the woodcutters around Chang'an to vent their anger! ”
"Yui!"
After sending Luan Bu away, Liu Chang hurriedly returned to the palace and began to write a letter, but it was not for Liuhou, but for Zhang Cang.
"Master, I recently thought of a solution to the problem of household registration in the Tang Kingdom...."
.......
It was another court meeting, and as soon as Chen Ping got off the carriage, he felt the difference.
On weekdays, when he got out of the carriage, there would definitely be ministers who came to visit, but this time, he saw the faces of the ministers who dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, everyone looked at him hatefully, and none of them came forward to meet him, Chen Ping was still as calm as ever, half-closed eyes, standing alone on the side, waiting for the door to open.
"Hahaha, Chen Hou..."
Wang Ling came to Chen Ping's side, "You don't know yet, do you... Yesterday, King Tang's housekeeper named Luan Bu sent a message to King Tang everywhere, saying that whoever dares to be disrespectful to you will be punished... Even Cao Xiang received letters, and some people said that you were the one who gave advice to the Tang King and secretly helped him, and some people even said that even the five hundred personal soldiers were selected by you... However, Chen Hou I is famous... Today, he has become a public enemy of the ministers. ”
Chen Ping squinted his eyes and didn't answer at all.
Wang Ling is very happy, he has a good relationship with Chen Ping, and when he sees Chen Ping deflated, he doesn't want to mention how happy he is.
"I didn't expect that Chen Hou would have such a day as deflated!"
Chen Ping suddenly opened his eyes, stared at the Wang Ling in front of him, and said loudly: "Wang Ling! You are disrespectful to me! Aren't you afraid of King Tang's punishment!? ”
At that moment, Wang Ling, who was still smiling, was stunned.
He looked at Chen Ping blankly and said, "But it's not..."
"Hmph, before the death of the first emperor, he said to me many times, whoever settles the world will be the king of Tang! I support it because of this, and regard it as a person of Anhan, and now it seems that the ministers only care about their own interests, regardless of the major affairs of the family and the country, and even a matter of reclamation, they have to quarrel repeatedly, and Cao Xiang needs to make a decision, and he deceives the king, and Emperor Taizu really did not say wrong! When the king of Tang is strong, these rebellious ministers and thieves, I should kill them with him!! ”
Seeing Chen Ping's appearance of "Ye has a showdown, Ye has voted for Tang", the ministers here were all shocked, but no one dared to come out to refute Chen Ping, and the atmosphere was unusually silent.
Wang Ling was silent for a long time, and asked tremblingly, "What does Chen Hou want to do??? ”
