After eating, I originally planned to go to the study to write a letter to Zhao Long, but I had to read the manuscripts and letters on the desk first.

The Anbei Army is now in a state of war, and Su Dingfang has a separate report to Sun Xiangfu, a Shangguan, for large and small wars, and after reading the full and detailed report, he has a more specific understanding of the situation in the Northeast.

Don't look at what Li Shimin announced to the outside world is good news, in fact, Su Dingfang fought very badly in the Kaiyuan area, but the people who died were all light and strong in the four departments, not the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, and the generals of the court did not feel that there was any loss.

Sun Xiangfu felt that it would not work to fight like this, if the light and strong of each department died too much, it would inevitably complain about the performance of the Tang Dynasty for not working hard, so after the Anbei Army transferred the prisoners of Goguryeo, it was also necessary to participate in the war, and after training for so long, it was time to see blood and contribute to the country.

So Sun Xiangfu sent a military order to Abu Tusi, ordering him to lead 20,000 light cavalry of the right escort army, bring a group of medical personnel and medicine, grain, grass, goods and other materials from Shanyang Medical College to Kaiyuan, reward the four departments at the same time, strengthen the garrison of Kaiyuan, change the clothes of the four allied forces as soon as possible, reduce the difference between the various departments and the Anbei army, and organize them to train with the Anbei army in their spare time.

Anyway, next year, Li Shimin will still transfer 20,000 Anbei troops to the northeast, and the Anbei army does not need to gather and train like the 16 guards of the army, or can only go out after being busy with farming, they are trained all year round, and only a small number of people need to stay and cultivate during the war, and the food in the military cantonment is enough for them to eat.

After dealing with the matter on Su Dingfang's side, Sun Xiangfu looked at Chu Suiliang's report again, he first reported the results of the Shanyang Army's Dabi, as well as some aftermath work after Dabi.

The Anbei Army at home won the first place in many individual events, but the overall number of medals was only third, and the most overall medals were Li Shimin's Xuanjia Army, after all, their overall quality was strong, and they were all veterans who had served for many years.

followed by Qin Qiong's Left Guards, who had more targeted training and won a lot in the team competition.

From this game, it can be seen that the shortcomings of the Anbei Army, which is dominated by Hu people, except for a few fierce generals, among the ordinary generals, there is no more prominent, which is related to some of the family heritage of the Han people.

These are all trivial matters, Sun Xiangfu roughly swept the list of some slightly more prominent talents in the Anbei Army, and issued an order to add officers and transfer these people, and it was over.

However, there is another thing that Chu Suiliang is not in a hurry to report to Sun Xiangfu, and he is the master, that is, he transferred the Xi Junmai Department, who was supposed to guard Shanyang, to the family to help them move to Shangqi City, according to the regulations, Chu Suiliang is not overstepping his authority, after all, he is the assassin of Shanyang, and he has the right to transfer Sun Xiangfu's army specially allocated to Shanyang, only the left and right guards are directly subordinate to the Metropolitan Protectorate of Anbei, and they need Sun Xiangfu's order to mobilize.

It's just that Chu Suiliang didn't take this opportunity to get some benefits, but he cheapened those families for nothing.

Moreover, minus the 5,000 men and horses that Xu Jingzong brought to Tai'an City, then, the defenders of Shanyang City are only more than 10,000 left, and the upcoming Wulan City also needs to send thousands of men and horses over, so that Shanyang City will not be able to send troops at all, such a large city, more than 10,000 defenders to defend, is already very weak, as the pillar of the north, the safety of Shanyang is very important, then, Sun Xiangfu should give Li Shimin a conscription excerpt.

The young and strong herdsmen in the north are born to ride and fight, with the current population base, they can get a dozen or two hundred thousand cavalry at any time, Sun Xiangfu for the sake of the stability of the Northeast in the future, directly played Li Shimin to levy an additional 50,000, when the time comes, it can be used as a standing force of the Andong Protectorate, I think Li Shimin should not disagree.

After dealing with official affairs and more private matters, Sun Deshou wrote to Sun Xiangfu about the growth of blueberries, and they also found some dead oak trees as the base and tried to cultivate lion's mane mushrooms in the house.

The oak saplings in the nursery are also well protected, even if the snow in Shanyang is big, it can ensure that there will be no problems, but recently those families are a little annoying, always want to hit the idea of the nursery, and there is also a lot of money to find the children of the farmers to buy cauliflower planting technology, all of which were rejected by Sun Deshou and the children of the farmers.

After reading this letter, Sun Xiangfu could only sigh that Sun Deshou was too honest, although he promised that the cauliflower would only be given to the Wang family for planting, but the other children of the farmer did not promise! Why don't you collect a lot of money and let the other families rob the Wang family's wealth.

Then there was a letter from his brother-in-law Yu Fang, who said that the prisoners in Shanyang Labor Camp could all graduate, and a few months of ideological education made them no longer want to return to their original family, and asked Sun Xiangfu if he could find him some more difficult work.

After reading this letter, Sun Xiangfu plans to transfer him to the edge of the desert next year to plant trees for a period of time, but he can't trust people so easily, now those families are busy moving people, and they need a lot of people to help organize it, so they naturally want to go back to these family soldiers first, but they won't directly ask Sun Xiangfu to ask for some euphemistic means, but it is normal to fool Yu Fang, so Sun Xiangfu directly pushed this problem to Li Shimin, saying that the emperor didn't allow it, so he didn't even think about it, real ideological education, there are not a few years, It's hard to get into their bones.

He also saw the letter written to him by Tang Fengyi, he felt that it was too cost-effective to export farm tools from Shanyang to the distant Shangqi, and wanted to divide one-third of the manpower of the Shanyang wood workshop and the iron workshop to Shangqi to establish a new workshop, and produce directly there.

Zhou Chun directly reported to Sun Xiangfu that a group of people would invest in real estate in the four newly built county towns, and the amount of funds needed was certainly not small, and a lot of loans were needed.

And Zhang Xingcheng and Yuwenjie also reported to Sun Xiangfu that the start-up capital budget for the construction of Shangqi City and Wulan City was all from one million, so that Sun Xiangfu's private money in Shanyang would almost all have to be invested, and the public account of the Metropolitan Protectorate of Anbei may owe millions of yuan, but Shanyang's bank, like Chang'an's bank, sounded the red alarm for loans.

After giving instructions and replies to all the official documents and letters, it was midnight again, Hongmei and Chuntao came to invite Sun Xiangfu to sleep, Sun Xiangfu, who felt that his body had been hollowed out, was a little scared and clamped his legs, and decided to sleep in the study tonight, and tomorrow he would put a full moon wine for the two children! It's not good that the spirit is too bad, but it makes Hongmei and Chun Tao laugh for a while.

Being able to sleep before midnight is considered happy, Li Shimin is not as happy as Sun Xiangfu, and the amount of information he has to review and listen to and process every day is very huge, especially when the country is at a critical moment of reform and foreign war.

"Your Majesty, the five surnames and seven families have a lot of complaints about not being able to enter the center of power this time."

"What did they say in private?"

"They say that Your Majesty's indiscriminate reform due to his own temperament will cause a big mess, and that there is never a shortage of good policies to govern the people, and what is lacking is the means to make the people obey······"

Hearing this, Li Shimin wanted to laugh, but the family still thought that only they could make the people obedient! As everyone knows, although the people who have no cultural knowledge are ignorant, they also know who is good to them, and now the way the court manages the people has changed from setting rules for them and exploiting them to helping them better produce and live, and it is strange that the people can disobey.

"Do they have any specific plans?"

"Not at the moment, but the resources of each of their families are speeding up to the outside of the pass, and they seem to be more fanatical about the lonely land than Sun Dudu imagined."

"They are choosing to escape, thinking that if they are far away from the Emperor of China, I will not be able to control them, or if they help me develop those border areas, I will start to clean them up. I want to know what the situation is in the various departments of the party and the Tuyuhun side as soon as possible, mobilize all the horses on the Longyou side, and go deep into their territory to investigate, not only to know the terrain, population, and living customs in their territory, but also to have a proper opportunity to intervene. ”

"Wechen will do it immediately."

"Alright, that's all for today! It's time for the queen to go to bed again. ”

Li Shimin's hand is too good, the people's will, if he doesn't have too much ambition, with Datang's current economic strength and military strength, it is more than enough to defend it.

Therefore, the sons of the family may not have reacted at first, but now, they have all woken up, and replacing the fields to the border land outside the customs is a means for them to preserve their strength and avoid conflict with Li Shimin.

After preserving their strength, they can launch a similar incident like this one at the city gate at any time to cause trouble to Li Shimin, so if you want less trouble in the country, you'd better not trouble them, reach a tacit understanding, and everyone will be safe.

Li Shimin in history, after becoming more and more powerful, reached a certain degree of tacit understanding with the sons of the family, and did not produce any large-scale bloodshed, and now, this period has arrived a few years in advance.

"Your Majesty, today the Zhengming Mansion sent whale meat, and the imperial dining room made fish soup, you can eat some and rest! By the way, his house is going to put a full moon wine for his two children tomorrow, have you thought of what kind of gift to give? ”

"I'm busy, but I haven't thought about it, just make up your mind." Li Shimin smelled the whale meat soup, which was extremely fragrant, so he took it over and ate and drank.

"The concubine thinks that no matter how much reward there is, it is not as good as coming to his mansion in person, tomorrow on the fifteenth, Your Majesty will have time?"

Li Shimin and Empress Changsun have been married for many years, and they don't know much about her, just by looking at her eyes, they know that there must be something in this.

"What, does the Sun Mansion have any business to do with money?"

"But I can't hide it from Your Majesty, didn't my brother play Your Majesty yesterday, and he wants to implement an open policy like Shanyang in Chang'an, there are some places where the concubines want to cooperate with the Sun family."

When Empress Changsun said this, it reminded Li Shimin of the time he lived in Shanyang, where he could go to the street at any time to relax, even at this hour, it was quite comfortable to eat a few skewers of lamb on the street, drink some flower wine, or milk wine.

At the same time, he also remembered the excerpt of the eldest grandson Wuji's letter to demolish part of the wall in Chang'an City, gradually lift the curfew, and implement the open management policy.

This method is feasible, but how to really invigorate the market, so that the people, the government, and even the royal parties can benefit, we have to ask Sun Xiangfu how to operate.

"Okay, I'll accompany Concubine Ai to Sun's Mansion tomorrow, but in terms of business, you go to talk to his wife, and what I want to talk to him about is political affairs."

It is said that the income of the harem is quite a lot this year, however, why is the eldest grandson queen still so concerned about money! Because she invested all the money, and also borrowed a lot of money from the bank, it costs a lot of money to invest in a large factory in Weinan, and the eldest grandson queen has invested in several at once, including the old industry Huangting furniture and supreme leather goods, and will build a more large-scale factory in Weinan, plus Sun Xiangfu previously gave Sun Deshou to marry the princess The glass factory, as well as under his suggestion, the start of the food factory, the pulp canning factory, etc., all of which need to be built at least several million.

And now, it's winter again, and Li Shimin, who is already used to sending something to the people at this time and collecting some people's hearts, is about to start throwing money again, so the harem is short of money again, and he has to find a way to make up for it!
