Cui's family is very old, and when he was 70 years old, the emperor also gave a lot of things to Jiangzhou, and it has been several years since now. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's not uncommon for people in their seventies to die.

The death of such an elder in the Xie family is indeed a big deal for the Jiangzhou Xie family, who is not in Vanity Fair now.

Fu Minghua's mother is from the Xie family, and it is common for the Xie family to come to report her funeral, as for her entering the palace and mentioning this matter to Cui Guifei:

"That Mrs. Zhao Guotai is from the Qinghe Cui family, right?"

Li Yuan nodded.

When Concubine Rong asked people to spread the news to Rong Tuying's ears, he was still a little skeptical.

Zhao Guotai's wife Cui is getting older, and it is not uncommon for her to die at this time, but he instinctively feels that something is not quite right.

Two days later, the mourners from Jiangzhou came to Luoyang and officially brought the news of Cui's death, and Rong Tuying's heart gradually fell.

This year is an eventful autumn, and the Queen Mother will be buried.

In the middle of the court, Tu Ying said that the emperor built a Zen temple for the queen mother, thinking that the queen mother would pray for longevity and blessings.

The Tang Dynasty was first built only a few decades, and it is not completely peaceful today.

Since Emperor Jia'an ascended the throne, he has been diligent and thrifty, and there are few times when he has built a large number of buildings, but now he suddenly allocates such an expenditure, and Li Fulin and others naturally oppose it.

"Your Majesty, now the border is not stable, and the war is not settled. In the north, there are Xue Yantuo, Khitan and the remnants of the former Turks that have not been exterminated, so it is really not suitable for large-scale construction. The minister believes that the idea of building a Zen temple for the queen mother is good, but there are priorities, and the construction of the Zen temple will be postponed a little, and when Kyushu is unified in the future, the barbarians will surrender, and the treasury will be abundant. ”

Li Fulin shook the elephant wat and spoke loudly.

Rong Tuying seemed to be smiling, looking at this old minister who was very favored by Emperor Jia'an in the past, he said impassionedly, and glared at Rong Tuying angrily.

It's just that the more angry Li Fulin became, the more calm Rong Tuying became.

"Master Li's words are wrong. The Tang Dynasty governs the country with filial piety, and since the emperor ascended the throne in the ninth year of the founding of the Yuan Dynasty, he has been conscientious and conscientious, strict with restraint, and has never had a time of relaxation. Now I just want to build a temple for the Queen Mother, invite Buddhist relics to worship, and pray for the Queen Mother's longevity, but Lord Li has many obstructions, I don't know what his intentions are? ”

Rong Tuying bent the corners of her mouth and raised her eyebrows to look at Li Fulindao.

Above the court, for a while, because of the words of the two Tongping Zhang, they were divided into two different factions, and they quarreled.

Emperor Jia'an was dizzy from the noise, waved his hand, and scolded lightly:

"Alright."

As soon as the emperor spoke, the courtiers who were arguing so much that their faces were red immediately stopped and they didn't dare to speak again.

"Where is Song Huaiying?"

Emperor Jia'an exhaled and called out.

The squire of the household department of Shangshu Province stood up and responded in a loud voice: "The minister is here." ”

Emperor Jia'an flicked his fingers, and then called: "Yu Qingsui." ”

For a while, many courtiers couldn't react for a while, and after a long time, Shangshu Province Hubu Duzhilang stood up and responded loudly:

"The minister is here."

Among the Tang Dynasty, the branch of the household department of Shangshu Province is in charge of the treasury of the Tang Dynasty, which is a lowly but very important position, and the affairs are cumbersome.

Because of the need to deal with money, most of the people in Hanlin disdained to hold this position, so Duzhi Langzhong was not very valued on weekdays.

At this time, Emperor Jia'an summoned two ministers in succession and instructed them to explain the financial situation in recent years.

Song Huaiying paused for a moment before saying loudly:

"Your Honor."

Yu Qingsui thought for a while, and then said a little nervously:

"Back to the emperor, when the first emperor was there, since the promulgation of the Juntian Decree, the people have abundant food and clothing, you have ascended the throne so far, and the tax has been reduced, from three stones of millet per year in the Taizu period to two stones, and each household has 1 boil, three taels of cotton, and three catties of hemp."

Yu Qingsui reported the number loudly and told the treasury situation one by one.

Liu Nobunaga, the head of the household, also said:

"When Taizu collapsed, the number of Tang households was less than four trillion, and the population was only a trillion trillions." As soon as Liu Xinchang said this, the hearts of Chen Jingxuan and the others sank.

The method of arithmetic in the Tang Dynasty is based on the "Li. The internal rules are divided into one, ten, hundred, thousand, thousand, thousand, billion, trillion, etc.

Billions of fractions are arithmetically calculated, with decimal numbers equal to tens, ten trillion as billions, and billions as trillions. Large numbers depend on tens of thousands, tens of thousands are billions, and trillions are trillions.

In other words, the meaning of Liu Nobunaga's words is that at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, there were less than 4 million households registered in the country, and the population was no more than 10 million. Liu Nobunaga, the secretary of the household department, came to this troubled water, which proved that Liu Nobunaga was going to speak for Rong Tuying.

Chen Jingxuan and the others glanced at each other, and Liu Nobunaga continued:

"But after the emperor ascended the throne, it is obvious to all, to this day, there are more than 900 trillion people registered in the Tang Dynasty, and the population is also tens of thousands of Beijing, which is your merit of the emperor."

Since Emperor Jia'an's ascension to the throne, the registered population has increased by more than half compared with the time of the previous emperor, which is a real achievement, which can prove the efforts and achievements made by Emperor Jia'an when he governed the country.

The people live and work in peace and contentment, and this is not just an empty word.

"Now the treasury is abundant, all of which are the reason why the emperor governs the country well, and the minister believes that the emperor is filial piety and wants to build a Zen temple, which is not enough to affect the people's livelihood, and it is not a waste of money."

After Liu Nobunaga said this, he stood with his hands respected.

Li Fulin and the others glanced at each other, with a helpless look on their faces.

As a result of the discussion, it was natural that Tu Ying's words were meritorious, and the emperor entrusted him with full responsibility for this matter.

When the next dynasty came, the officials of the two factions were coldly opposed, and they were still not convinced, and after Su Ying and others left with Rong Tuying, the angry expressions on the faces of Li Fulin, Chen Jingxuan and others turned meaningful.

When Concubine Cui Guifei in the palace heard this, she was faintly uneasy in her heart. Rong Tuying's desire to infiltrate the household department and reach out to the treasury is too obvious, but Emperor Jia'an has even indulged him to this day, which has to worry Cui Guifei.

In contrast, Fu Minghua listened to the news and was indifferent.

Emperor Jia'an allowed Tu Ying to contaminate the household, and he must have a plan.

She remembered the box of butterflies that Yan had given to her from Rong Tuying that day, all of which were made of gold and were extremely delicate.

Rong Tuying was so generous as soon as she made a move, which shows Rong's family background.

But the Rong family is so rich, but they are still not greedy enough, in the final analysis, it is the Rong family's money that Rong Tuying wants to do is not enough to support his actions, which will make him start the idea of the treasury.

Fu Minghua stood in front of the desk, spread out rice paper in front of her, Biyun personally studied ink for her, she stroked her stomach with one hand, filled the ink with a pen in the other, and drew a huge circle on the paper with a pen.

When Bilan saw it, she couldn't help laughing:

"Are you hungry?" (To be continued.) )
