It is difficult for people to have surplus food in their homes.

It's not that the taxes are too harsh, it's mainly because of life. The only thing that ordinary people who simply scraped from the land for food was the grain at home.

Food, clothing, housing, transportation, firewood, rice, oil and salt, although self-sufficiency can be achieved, but if you are about to do it all the time, what kind of strength will you live? Therefore, after the autumn harvest every year, in addition to paying rent to the landlord and paying taxes to the imperial court, the remaining grain must be exchanged for salt, farm tools and other things.

If it's a trade in your own village, it's fine, you only need to exchange food. However, if you want to go into the city to buy things, you can't carry bags of grain. Therefore, when copper coins need to be traded, the people usually sell their grain to grain merchants and then use the money to shop.

No treacherous business, this is a common saying in ancient and modern times. In normal times, the grain on the market is four or five copper coins a bucket, but when the grain merchants collect grain, it is three cents, or even two cents a bucket. There is no way, it is too difficult for the people to find buyers of grain directly, although they are indignant at the grain merchants and gluttonous behavior, but they can only keep their mouths shut. 手机端 一秒記住→.\B\\\\.\\為你提供精彩\novel說薱讀。

Despite receiving compensation, the people around the farm still did not close their doors and live their own rich lives.

When the prince himself led the soldiers to transport money to compensate the people, he explained that the prince would only lose money and would not take over the crops in the fields.

If you really want to talk about it, in fact, a few chickens are just digging holes, which is not a big deal. The eggs of locusts are usually laid on the edge of the field, and even if there are those in the middle, when the farmers turn the ground, they are turned out and sunburned.

If the prince does not plant the land, the people will naturally be happy to continue planting.

It's just that, after farming, some of the weeds on the roadside and the green seedlings in the fields are eaten by invisible things, but no one pays attention to them.

The butcher's knife of the army finally got a period of relief after being stained with the blood of the old department of King Xi Li Jiancheng, the old department of King Li Yuanji of Qi, Luo Yi, the eldest grandson Anye, Li Xiaochang, Li Youliang, and the Qiang people. In the ninth year of Tang Wude and the first year of Zhenguan, it is not an exaggeration to say that it has been bleeding.

When the opposition against the emperor finally weakened, the dynasty officially entered a period of stability.

As an emperor, Li Shimin was proud, as early as when Emperor Yang of Sui was working, he thought that he would one day be able to replace his boss. Later, when the Tang Dynasty was established, he was full of joy and waiting for him to be crowned the crown prince, but he was stabilized by his eldest brother. In terms of merit, Li Jiancheng is indeed incomparable to Li Shimin.

Not to mention the various conquests before the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, that is, after the first year of Wude, Li Shimin personally participated in four battles. Xue Ju claimed to have a huge amount of money and infinite power, but he couldn't take advantage of Li Shimin. After Xue Ju's death, in the Battle of Shallow Water Plain, Li Shimin defeated Xue Ju's son, and the Tang Dynasty was settled in the west. The rout of Song Jingang and Liu Wuzhou stabilized the northern part of the Tang Dynasty.

In the Battle of Tiger Pass, Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande were defeated, and the Tang Dynasty gained the right to rule North China. The heavy damage of Dou Jiande's old department, Liu Heimin, and Shandong Xu Yuanlang, until they were eliminated, pacified the east of the Tang Dynasty.

Leaving aside the southern Feng An, who took the initiative to ask for submission and did not raise sword soldiers, Li Shimin can really be called a conquest of the Quartet.

However, the eldest son inherits the family business, whether it is the common people, the nobles, or even the royal family, it is the same.

"King Qin", "Admiral Tiance", "Shang Shuling", "Above the Princes".....

A series of false names did not suppress Li Shimin's ambitions, but intensified the contradictions between the King of Qin and the crown prince. Therefore, the change of Xuanwumen is not an accident.

Having said that, although it has happened a lot in history that a person who does two things, killing his brother and imprisoning his father, it is a completely bad thing. The habit of the Xianbei people is that the brother dies and the sister-in-law obeys the brother, but that is the habit of the Hu people, not the habit of the Han people. The emperor's move to take his beautiful sister-in-law and sister-in-law into his private house should be severely criticized.

Locusts are evolving from nymphs to adults, and under the calm surface of the lake in Chang'an, it can be called turbulent.

Chang'an is the first place occupied by the Hundred Cavalry Division, how can it not be "clear ears and clear eyes". Therefore, less than an hour after the contemporary head of the family with the surname Qiwang secretly entered Chang'an and lived in their respective mansions, the report was submitted to the emperor's desk.

After reading it, he tore the report to shreds, and looked at Duan Yunzhi, the leader of the Hundred Cavalry Division, who was kneeling on one knee in front of him and waiting for the order, Li Shimin asked, "I asked you to investigate the matter of the farm, but there is a result?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, at the beginning of the establishment of the farm, it was actually handled by some old palace maids and eunuchs. Now that the harvest is abundant, these talents are hidden behind the scenes. When the farm recruited men, the spies of the Baiqi Division also mixed in, in addition to Fang Sheng, the head of the East Palace, who always visited, some eunuchs in the palace also always sneaked in.

Therefore, Weichen deduced that in the palace, there should be a force composed of palace maids and eunuchs, and they found the prince in order to survive in a group. The prince is young and the most kind-hearted. That's why the farm was set up at the expense.

If His Majesty thinks it's inappropriate, Weichen will send someone to secretly arrest Fang Sheng, the head of the East Palace, and others, and he will definitely be able to catch them all. ”

Duan Yunzhi's voice was a little hoarse, and his face was hidden under a black veil, which was even more gloomy.

Li Shimin smiled, waved his hand and said, "Just let them go, some miserable people can't do anything out of the ordinary." But I didn't expect that the prince would be quietly associated with these people, and I would like to see how the prince consolidated his position. As long as the Baiqi Division pays close attention to these people, it is good to take precautions, and do not intervene. ”

Duan Yunzhi answered, then got up and left backwards. It wasn't until he left that the eunuchs and maids outside the palace re-entered. The emperor never allowed outsiders to be present when he met with the people of the Hundred Horsemen.

Li Shimin stood up, walked outside the hall, and involuntarily looked at Chang'an City.

The prince's business is a trivial matter. Although he is young, Li Shimin does not care about his behavior of recruiting people, but is happy to see it. Of course, this can only be done on the premise that the prince does things spontaneously.

Now for him, the real challenge is the seven old men who secretly entered Chang'an today.

These wealthy families are used to being high, and they don't even have a bit of awe for the royal family. The imminent locust plague is the best help for them to fight the royal family. The plague of locusts will arise because of the monarch's lack of virtue. Grasping this one, they think they are invincible.

I just don't know, how poisonous can the tongue of these old men who dig into the pile of old papers be?

Laughing, thinking about the folds that had been dealt with in the hall behind him, Li Shimin suddenly wanted to go to the East Palace for a walk.
