Chapter 153: Back to the door
On the third day of the new daughter-in-law's marriage, if she is close to home, according to the rules, she must take her father-in-law back to her parents' house, which is called Huimen.
Because Guang'an had just broken down, Feng Daiwen endured not touching her for the past two days, and the two went out of the city early in the morning to bid farewell to Feng An, and when they turned around, they prepared gifts and went to the palace to greet Li Shimin and his wife.
The two were taken to the Lizheng Palace, and the eldest grandson looked at Guang'an and walked away, leaving Li Shimin to chat with Feng Daiwen.
"I want you to be on the ruling side, what do you think?" Li Shimin asked with a smile.
"The sons are at the mercy of their father's arrangement." Feng Daiwen said respectfully, there was no way to pick and choose before, but now that he has taken someone else's daughter, of course, he can only fiddle with it.
Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction and said: "Now that Datang has not fought for a short time, it is just time to go to the ruling side to experience it, you think you want to go there." ”
"The father's arrangement is, and the sons have no objections." Feng Daiwen knew that Li Shimin should already have a place to go in his heart, so he didn't think much about it and waited for the arrangement.
"The Turks on the steppe are now unable to protect themselves, Xue Yantuo, and the Hui people are everywhere to arrest and exchange them for property, just yesterday the Khitan, Wei Room, Jian, and Dangxiang people have written to ask me to allow them to exchange prisoners for supplies, haha, I agreed." Li Shimin laughed heartily.
"Father Emperor Tianwei, all parties are naturally subservient, and the sons think that there are many small countries in Nanyang and rich resources, and they can vigorously use commerce to plunder resources." Feng Daiwen persuaded him.
"I have already made the arrangement according to your suggestion, Li Daozong is guarding Linyi Road, sitting in Xianglin County, and also letting Funan and Zhenla exploit mining deposits, in exchange for porcelain, salt, linen, silk and other items, what else do you need to do?" Li Shimin asked puzzled.
"Erchen thinks it's not enough, the climate in Nanyang is warm, and basically anything you plant can be harvested, so there is no worry about hunger, and those locals are very lazy."
"We can choose some meritorious people, let their families send people to contract the land of small countries, hire locals to help plant, and the imperial court only needs to collect a small part of the tax." Feng Daiwen explained.
"Not bad, good idea, I think many people are willing to go, although it is a little farther, but you only need to arrange someone to guard, and you can find a few old farmers to guide you." Li Shimin stroked his palm and smiled.
"And you can encourage some small businessmen to go, they are the most good at taking advantage of people, and there are moral constraints in Datang, for overseas, as long as it does not cause riots, let them do it." Feng Daiwen said coldly.
"This is inappropriate, although it is a foreign race, you must not be persecuted too much, everything must have rules." Li Shimin had no choice but to suppress Feng Daiwen's hatred of foreign races.
"What my father said is very true, and my son is out of shape." Feng Daiwen took a deep breath and said.
"It's okay, you are also thinking about Datang, and the method is also very good, I will arrange it." Li Shimin comforted.
"The summer harvest has been counted, most places are bumper harvests, two to fifty percent more than last year, I have issued an order, the whole country to promote the three crops of rice, intensive cultivation, Li Tai, Li Ke two night incense purchase has spread to the country's large counties." Li Shimin pulled the topic away again, and said that he couldn't help but smile at the end.
Although it doesn't sound elegant to use night incense to make fertilizer, and I don't want a prince to do it, Li Shimin is not a pedantic person, how can he not see clearly such a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and he is naturally happy to see what his two sons let people do, and even add fuel to the fire.
"Erchen proposes to train soldiers in a targeted manner, that is, to select and train soldiers for different terrains, for example, many places are mountainous and dense forests, and if you fight, it is best to have professionally trained mountain soldiers, who know how to distinguish the direction, distinguish whether the water source is edible, and know how to prevent snakes and insects."
"For example, Tubo is located on the plateau, if the soldiers usually go up, they will have altitude sickness, chest tightness and weakness, and in severe cases, they will die, which requires the soldiers to adapt in advance." Feng Daiwen raised another question that he had been thinking about for a long time.
"Well, it makes sense, now that a new army is being formed, it is better to set aside defensive soldiers, and the others are scattered into thousands of people, go to various places for training, and do some things by the way, just like a few soldiers guarding the Western Regions." Li Shimin knocked on the coffee table and thought about it.
"Father is wise, just like the current grassland army is stationed, it costs a lot of money, and it can leave a few thousand teams to control the alien race to carry out the mission."
"Or let the nobles and the private soldiers of the family organize themselves to open up, and the imperial court will send people to monitor and assist." Feng Daiwen analyzed seriously.
"Let the private soldiers go to war? Why do you have this idea? "Li Shimin has always wanted to weaken the family, so he doesn't want them to develop bigger and develop too strongly, so the tribe is very reluctant to let the family and Xungui clean up the small country, because these places will inevitably not be able to stop the wolf-like family.
"It's all the fault of the sons, the day before yesterday, I got married, chatted with the emperor's grandfather, and inadvertently mentioned that not far from Nanzhao, there is a small country, and its country has mountains, all of which are jade." Feng Daiwen explained with a wry smile.
"But this thing?" Li Shimin got up and took out a jade statue from the side and asked.
"It is this thing, the imperial grandfather asked the retainer to find a way, it is best to take this place without spending a single soldier, so the retainer has this proposal."
"But the father doesn't have to worry about the family being big, they can have a harvest, and the court will only gain more." Feng Daiwen analyzed 1510.
"Well, yes, they can gain, we can gain more, and we can weaken their troops, find out the details, it's much better than hiding in the dark, you can see how to arrange it." The more Li Shimin thought about it, the happier he became, and asked with his eyes wide.
"The matter of the conquest will be handed over to the family, and the people who are captured will be arranged by the imperial court to build the road from Shuzhong to Nanzhao, and from Shuzhong to Chang'an, and the road can be mined after the road is repaired, and there are many silver mines, cinnabar, saltpeter and other minerals in Nanzhao."
"The imperial court is responsible for providing them with weapons, protecting the rear for them, providing some medicinal materials and materials, and also providing the imperial court with experience in mountain warfare." Feng Daiwen thought about it and said.
"Yes, I will make a will, and any family that wants to go can go." Li Shimin said with a smile.
"Father is wise, in fact, the most important thing is that the population of the Tang Dynasty is too small, if there are enough people, there is still a need to borrow the strength of other people." Feng Daiwen sighed.
"Well, I've seen the map, and the world is so big, I hope to lay a wide enough space for my children and grandchildren in my lifetime." Li Shimin looked outside the hall with his eyes, as if looking at the whole earth, and said with a radiant look.
"The son will help his father and emperor to unify the universe and conquer the four seas." Feng Daiwen got up and hugged his fists.
"Haha, okay, let you accompany me to conquer the whole world, haha." Li Shimin patted Feng Daiwen on the shoulder and laughed loudly.
