Chapter 361: Then Why Are You Here?
For the people of Chang'an, since the Sui Dynasty recovered Guanzhong, Chang'an has become lively, and the policies for benefiting the people such as equalizing the land are insignificant, which is already in the past.
The cultural and educational undertakings that the people are now hotly discussing are talking about.
The Great Sui Dynasty opened 20 'Great Sui Libraries' in Chang'an, selling cheap books, and high-ranking officials and nobles, peddlers and pawns can buy books in the 'Great Sui Library', and it doesn't matter if you don't buy them, you can take the books on the shelves to the reading area to read and copy at will, even if you read them until the closing time. Of course, if you damage or stain the book, you have to buy it at the price
Reading is a noble thing in this era, and it is also a very promising thing, and now the people in Chang'an City will buy a copy of "Mengxue". Even if you can't understand it, you can let your son and grandson read it.
Chang'an has opened a lot of Yixue, teaching this "Mengxue", which is not a kind of advanced knowledge, but for the people, this is a good start, children can first recognize words in Yixue, after recognizing words, these books that were originally incomprehensible will naturally be slowly understood.
Down-to-earth, step by step is the consensus of the simple people, they don't expect to win the champion all at once, they feel that it is enough to do the things in front of them, as for the rest, let's see it later! The good thing is that everyone's life has hope, and there is more hope for the future than ever before.
For the people of Chang'an, Yang Tong is not only an unattainable existence, but also a good prince who leads everyone to prosperity step by step...... There is also a cash-for-work policy, so that the people of Chang'an can earn extra income by selling their labor, and with money, everyone can improve their lives
The real benefits brought by this can be seen by the people, and what makes the people even more grateful is that the court gave the people ploughing cattle for nothing.
Although the imperial court has not been able to send a cow to each family, I heard that His Royal Highness the King of Qin has won a great victory in the north and the generals in the west, and everyone has captured countless ploughing cattle, which will be distributed to the homes of the people who have not yet received ploughing cattle.
Ploughing cattle are the most important means of production in this era, and the constraint on the development of productive forces and grain production is the serious shortage of ploughing cattle. And with cattle, the progress, effect, and yield are all multiplied and multiplied.
Such a dynasty that really thinks about the people, how can you let the people of the Great Sui not love it?
In the troubled times, there are still many people struggling in life and death, in contrast, the people of Chang'an feel that they are the happiest people.
All this was given to them by the Great Sui Dynasty, so it is normal for people to support the Great Sui.
However, there are many people in such a court who want to overthrow the people, and they want to overthrow it, and there are two main reasons for them to overthrow: first, the Great Sui opened a library and ran a righteous school, and those big families thought that they should not sell books to the people, and that the people should continue to be stupid; Second, the land should not be distributed to the people, and the Ding tax should not be abolished.
These reasons of the family are very angry, but the former Li Tang Emperor Li Yuan also thinks so, and everyone dares to be angry and dare not speak. Fortunately, the Great Sui drove away Li Yuan, the tyrant, and made himself a common man of the Great Sui, enjoying the same treatment as Jizhou, Youzhou, Bingzhou, and Yongbei.
But the people still don't understand why the family said that the Sui Dynasty was not good and wanted to overthrow it.
But now, the people are beginning to understand.
Because there are storytellers who take things apart from all angles, so that the people can figure it out.
In order to support the Great Sui to open a library and run a righteous school, the family was worried that the children of the common people would read good books and affect their status after they passed the top prize.
The clans did not support the Great Sui to divide the land equally, because they lost the tool to exploit the people.
The big families did not support the Great Sui to govern officials and the country according to law, because their families were all bad people, for fear that the imperial court would execute the villains in their family.
……
The reason why the family wants to overthrow the Great Sui, through the mouth of the storyteller, gradually spread from Chang'an to the entire Guanzhong, watching the family being defeated, punished, and executed, the people only have the words 'damn' and 'kill' in their hearts.
The people who understood the reason for the death of the family found out that the Great Sui Dynasty was good, and only then did they find that once the Great Sui Dynasty was overthrown, they would have to return to the previous days when pigs and dogs were inferior, so the support of the people of Guanzhong for the Great Sui reached a terrifying height.
……
The flip side of support is opposition.
The lives of the people are beautiful because of the Great Sui, and they are the ones who benefit, and they naturally support the Great Sui; And the big family is the loser of interests, and it is natural to overthrow the Great Sui Dynasty.
In Qinrenfang, near the East Market, in a slightly remote courtyard, one hundred and forty big people from various families gathered. Of course, these so-called bigwigs are just shopkeepers of some merchants in today's Chang'an City.
Although after Yang Tong entered Guanzhong, the Great Sui Dynasty carried out a devastating suppression of the Guanlong family. But the family's energy in this era is very huge, even if their main family either dies or leaves Guanzhong, but the heritage they have accumulated for hundreds of years is extremely difficult to erase in such a short period of time.
In addition, Yang Tong's power center is far away in Yecheng, Wei County, and there are only Li Jing and Pei Renji on the Chang'an side, so it is naturally difficult to cover many things, and it also gives these families an opportunity to take advantage of. They secretly recruited many former family guards, although there was no real profit there, but with the name of the Guan Long family, there are still many people who are willing to serve them, as for those who are unwilling to serve, they are all secretly killed, and those who remain are all the hardcore henchmen of the Guan Long family.
In fact, the family of the world does not mind that the children of the clan are born in the Great Sui, because after the Great Sui unified the north, he was already the first prince of the world. It's a pity that Yang Dong's approach touched the most fundamental interests of the family and deprived them of everything, which was the most difficult thing for them to accept.
Sitting on the throne was a young scribe about thirty years old, his name was Lawyer Pei, the eldest son of Pei Lian, who married Princess Linhai, the son and daughter of Emperor Li Yuan of the Tang Dynasty.
When Yang Tong entered the state, Wen Xi Pei's family was naturally not spared, but Yang Tong did not do too much to the Pei family, and after depriving the Pei family of all its wealth, he gave the Pei family to Yang Qi, who still had a foothold in Luoyang. The Pei family is flourishing, divided into Pei Ju, Pei Yun, Pei Lian, Pei Shiqing and other branches, some of them continue to be by Yang Qi's side, after Yang Qi lost power, followed Pei Shiqing to vote for Li Mi. As for the other group of people, they went to Chang'an to defect to Pei Lian. When Guanzhong was lost, Pei Lian's group followed Li Yuan to the south, and Lawyer Pei was quite capable, and was ordered by Li Yuan to lurk in Chang'an, secretly contacting the Guanlong family, the Kanto family, and the people left in Chang'an by the Southern family, so as to accumulate strength for the future recovery of Guanzhong.
Lawyer Pei's expression was solemn, he looked at the representatives of the family who were invited by him, and said in a deep voice: "Our intelligence officers have found out a piece of news: it is said that Yang Tong will arrive in Chang'an in the near future. ”
"I wonder what the Captain wants?" An old man asked with a frown. His name is Wang Zhi, and he is a descendant of Wang Xiong in the 'Twelve Great Generals of Guanlong' during the Yuwentai period, and he is the representative of the Wang family in Chang'an.
"I, Li Tang, have almost been uprooted in Yecheng, and Yecheng is Yang Dong's lair, so it is difficult for us to start. He is now in Chang'an, and I think this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Lawyer Pei said with a smile.
"It's a great opportunity... But I have two questions..."Wang Zhi frowned and said: "First, the army guarding Chang'an City originated from Jizhou and Youzhou and Youzhou wandering people, and it was Yang Tong's elite division based on the Xiaoguo Army and founded in Zhuo County, and the hundreds of thousands of troops of the King of Jin were beaten by this army without the slightest temper, although there were only 20,000 people in the city, but the combat power was not less than 100,000 people, the important thing is that they not only won a hundred battles, but also were loyal to Yang Tong, and they have not changed since they sat in Chang'an, and none of them are the children of Guanzhong; Second, Yang Dong's triumphant army even wiped out hundreds of thousands of armies of the Eastern and Western Turks; How do you say we fight? ”
Whether other people's soldiers can fight or not, the number is still ridiculously large, and they can't play without an army of 100,000. You kid wants to assassinate the king and kill him now without soldiers, isn't he looking for death? That's not how you die, is it?
"The main force of the Sui army marched east with the spoils of war and returned to Jizhou from Bingzhou, and there were not many troops around Yang Tong, and according to his standards, at most he would only bring his five thousand Xuanjia troops to Chang'an." Lawyer Pei glanced at everyone and said with a smile: "As for the 20,000 elites in Chang'an City, you don't have to worry, we will try to transfer them out of Chang'an." ”
"There are also five thousand Xuanjia troops who block a hundred with one block!" Wang Zhi nodded and asked, "What do you say?" ”
Lawyer Pei said: "The Xuanjia Army will definitely not be transferred." ”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Xuanjiajun is Yang Tong's personal guard, Yang Tong follows wherever he goes, if Lawyer Pei says that even Xuanjiajun can be transferred out of Yang Tong, everyone will flash without saying a word, and they will not die with Lawyer Pei, which is too unreliable. Now that he is honest, everyone is relieved.
"Even if Yang Tong only has the Xuanjia Army, then how many of us are there?"
"Don't worry, the younger generation has already prepared, let's see who this person is?" Lawyer Pei clapped his hands.
I saw a military general walk out of the back hall, bow to everyone and say, "The last general is Changhe, see the princes." ”
"Chang He?" Many people frowned slightly, obviously very unfamiliar with the name.
"Chang He? Could it be the Longmen Pass guard? Wang Zhi remembered something and looked at this person.
"It's the last general!" Chang He bowed and said ashamedly: "During the battle of Guanzhong, the last general sat in Longmen Pass and was defeated. When the Sui army was reorganized and surrendered, he was ordered to infiltrate the Sui army. ”
"I see." Wang Zhi smiled and nodded, it seems that Li Yuan left a lot of followers in order to recapture Guanzhong.
Lawyer Pei smiled and said, "General Chang He is now a school captain and a guard general of the Xuanzhong Gate of the North Palace. Yang Tong used the King of Chu to deceive the Xuanzhong Gate and the Xuanwu Gate that day, and now we can also follow suit. ”
Everyone's eyes are bright, the Xuanzhong Gate is the north gate of Daxing Palace, it is extremely solid, after this portal, through the north garden of the palace, you can arrive at the Xuanwu Gate, the palace garden, the forbidden palace. When Yang Tong burned the palace, he took this route.
"I wonder how many people under General Chang can be mobilized?" Wang Zhi asked.
Chang He arched his hand and said: "Five hundred! ”
Five hundred?
The muscles on Wang Zhi's face twitched fiercely a few times, what can five hundred people do? Moreover, these 500 people are not the elite of the Great Sui, if they encounter the Xuanjia Army, they will not be able to raise a wave.
"Five hundred people want to make trouble? What a joke. One person looked at Lawyer Pei speechlessly, are you stupid or are we stupid?
Lawyer Pei's face was also a little hot. He wanted to win over more people, but the Sui Dynasty looked too strictly at the Tang army prisoners after the Guanzhong War, and those prisoners were all dragged to Yongbei to build roads, and they could only return to the official status after serving two years in prison.
The pawn was also taken to Tuntian, a region outside Guanzhong such as Hanchuan, and the same was that far water could not quench the thirst of the near.
Looking for them? That's all about giving them heads.
As for the domestic slaves and tenants of the major families were scattered and settled in the Longyou, Yongbei, and Hehuang regions, not to mention whether those people were willing to rebel against the Sui Dynasty with them, the key was that no one could find them, and they couldn't get in touch.
"Don't worry!" Lawyer Pei coughed lightly, and felt that it was not convincing, and felt that it was the time to lift the bottom, and said in a deep voice: "The junior is not the main general of this mission. ”
So why are you here?
