Chapter 50: Your Majesty Li Er, a good ghost

Looking at the people at the scene frowning slightly, with shame in their eyes, and all kinds of expressions, Li Shen sneered slightly in his heart, all for himself, and never knew that he could report only after paying.

Then Li Shen sighed in a low voice, he really didn't have the slightest way for these selfish people to read now, the only thing was to completely change them through time.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, the student wants to ask, if the wealthy family and those rich people do not cooperate, what should you do?" A young man walked over, saluted Li Shen, and asked cautiously.

"Uncooperative? Non-cooperation is indeed a problem, but Lone will not embarrass them, but they will not enjoy all the benefits given by the imperial court, including schooling, roads built by the imperial court, medical care, etc., including the various policies for the benefit of the people brought about by the subsequent changes of the imperial court, but those who do not cooperate will not be able to enjoy any benefits given by the imperial court within three generations. Li Shen said with a smile.

If you don't cooperate, it is estimated that the only people who can really not cooperate are those wealthy families, as for those squires, Li Shen doesn't care at all, they don't have the courage to go against the court, at most three years, Li Shen believes that all these people who are against him will kneel down and beg him.

Hearing this, the young man's face changed slightly, nodded, and said, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Prince." ”

"I hope you can take a good look at the newspaper and think about it, although the policy will not be changed for the time being, but I hope to understand, this is not only for your good, but also for the people." After Li Shen finished speaking, he turned around and left.

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

The land reform has eliminated the welfare of all scholars, and the newspapers have also published detailed explanations again and again in the past few days, and Li Shen has also paid a lot of painstaking efforts for this, and he also hopes that the people can understand.

With the publication of the newspaper, the entire court became boiling again, and the twists and turns from all over the country were also quickly presented in front of His Majesty Li Er, and the twists and turns to impeach Li Shen were piled up more than one person in the past few days.

This time, Li Shen completely moved the interests of all those who had made a name for themselves, as well as the interests of those who were studying hard in the cold window, and they could not make a compromise, and all of them united to resist the land reform and cut down the welfare policy of studying.

Of course, this is also other places in Chang'an City, and the news published in the newspaper has not yet been able to reach the city outside Chang'an City for the time being, but it is also a time of time sooner or later, and Li Shen also hopes that these people can understand his intentions after seeing the newspaper.

"According to me, this matter is still settled, it touches the interests of all the scholars, they can't agree, I have been annoyed to death by these twists and turns in the past few days." His Majesty Li Er rubbed his forehead and said.

"Father, it seems that you are really old." Li Shen said with a smile.

His Majesty Li Er's face darkened when he heard this, and he said coldly, "What do you mean by this?" ”

"Father, when you were the king of Qin, you dared to fight with your uncle when you led hundreds of people, and now you are all emperors, and this country is in your hands, what are you worried about? Erchen's words are not wrong, right? ”

"It's not a cowardly thing, do you know what will happen in the end if you go on today?" His Majesty Li Er said angrily.

"What's the situation? The people don't support it, but you find it useful just by relying on these scholars? ”

"This matter not only implicates these scholars, but also all the officials of Datang."

Li Shen handed a document on the table to His Majesty Li Er, and said, "This is a monthly salary adjustment plan for officials, you take a look at it, show this to them, they should agree." ”

His Majesty Li Er took the document and looked at it casually, his brows were tightly locked, all officials' salaries were increased by one-third, and the pension system was implemented, and if they reached a certain age, they would retire if they did not do anything at all, and after retirement, the imperial court would still pay them, and those who had the ability would enter Chang'an City and continue to contribute to the Tang Dynasty.

The more he looked down, the more His Majesty Li Er's brows were locked, and he would definitely be able to know the good and the bad, once this was implemented, he would definitely be able to reduce the existence of a lot of corruption at that time.

The plan was written in great detail, all of which were written by Li Shen with reference to the modern civil service system, and some of his ideas, including the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, were all written into it, forming a hodgepodge, and of course, it also included the promotion of officials.

His Majesty Li Er put the documents on the table, looked at Li Shen, and said, "This matter will be handed over to the eldest grandson Wuji tomorrow morning, and they will make a decision after discussion, and the matter of land reform and the reduction of the welfare of scholars will be put on hold for the time being." ”

Li Shen looked at His Majesty Li Er a little helplessly, and said, "Father, do you know that your son ......?"

"When it's time for grain and grass, I'll drop a batch for you when the time comes."

"It doesn't matter if this grain and grass is there, these things are all strung together, Datang doesn't need so many troops at all now, Erchen's idea is to disarm 400,000 people this year, and let these people go back to farming."

"Disarmament?"

Seeing that Li Shen nodded slightly, His Majesty Li Er continued: "Do you know that if Datang lays off those soldiers, Datang will be the consequence?" ”

Of course, this retainer knows that the Tang Dynasty doesn't need so many troops at all...... Let me tell you this, the city in the Central Plains does not need every city to garrison an army, Chang'an City has the 30,000 Xuanjia army of the emperor, and 10,000 sons are enough, and there is no need to garrison troops in Tubo, as long as tens of thousands of people are stationed in Turkic, tens of thousands of people are stationed in Goryeo, and tens of thousands of people are stationed in Henan Province, and the Central Plains can have a force in Jinling City.

After the complete reform of the army, Erchen estimated that he would only retain a maximum of 200,000 army branches, and it was not good to take advantage of this opportunity to quickly cut through the mess. Besides, the smaller the number of the army, the easier it is to control it, and there is no need to worry about rebellion. ”

His Majesty Li Er glanced at Li Shen and said, "When are you going to carry out a thorough reform of the army?" ”

"Within two to three years! Now the conditions are not ripe, even if they are reformed, there are not so many weapons for them to use, and those weapons can only be used on the battlefield after training. ”

"I'll get back to you in a few days." His Majesty Li Er said lightly, and then said, "I'm tired, you can step down!" ”

Li Shen stood up, nodded, and said helplessly: "Please also ask my father to make a decision as soon as possible, so that the ministers can start, and there is another thing I want to discuss with you, can you transfer some of those idle officials to the ministers?" ”
