Chapter 231: The Crown Prince Supervises the Kingdom

With the experience of the last time, this time Li Yuan was crisp and neat, without the slightest intention of dragging mud and water.

Compared with Li Yuan's crispness, Li Yuanji was a little painful.

Prison ......

How can you have the energy to supervise the country?

But Li Yuan's attitude has explained everything, whether you agree or not, anyway, this matter is handed over to you, and the country is also yours, you can do whatever you want, I don't care.

It seems that he has been confined in the palace for too long, and after announcing this decision, Li Yuan directly stood up and patted his ass and left the hall, handing over all this place to Li Yuanji.

And he himself left the palace with some guards and palace people.

I haven't come out for more than a year, and the changes outside are really big, and the trip I went out the day before yesterday made Li Yuan a little unbelievable, is this still the Chang'an from before?

In the entire hall, the ministers of the 'former dynasty' looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you, there are a lot of things to report in your hands, and this has been backlogged for a few days, when Li Shimin is there, almost everything is dealt with on the same day, no matter how late.

Although Li Shimin could not make everyone surrender, his diligent attitude still won high praise from many people.

King Qi ......

Oh, no, although the prince said that he had left a good reputation in the Qi State, after all, these ministers had not been in Chang'an for a day or two, knowing the prince's habits in Chang'an in the past, plus they were Li Shimin's old department, it is not certain whether the prince would use this as an excuse to settle old accounts.

In the past, if this one didn't work, he could take refuge in another, but now the emperor is no longer in charge, and there is only the new crown prince Li Yuanji alone, who else can he take refuge in?

If you have concerns, you naturally don't dare to say something, at least you have to reconsider.

"Your Highness, the Changping positions in various places in charge of the household department have not been going well a few days ago, and now it seems that the drought may continue, and the grain in various places cannot be harvested, resulting in no grain in the warehouse, I am afraid that it will not be able to play its due role at a critical moment." Pei Ju, who is already eighty years old, does not have so many scruples, it doesn't matter what kind of person Li Yuanji is, what matters is the future.

Anyway, I'm getting older, so it's nothing to give those future generations a trip.

Li Yuanji, who has not yet fully entered the state, was a little surprised, why did he have to be the master of the house in a moment? I'm not used to it.

As for Pei Ju's impression, Li Yuanji still stayed at the original sentence that Pei Gong said that he was not there, thinking about it is funny, by the way, and his cheap uncle.

"Is there any solution for the household?" If you don't know anything, the ghost knows what to do? Li Yuanji asked Pei Ju directly.

"There is a plan, but ......" Rao is Pei Ju, who is open-minded, is also a little hesitant at this time, he can not care about anything, but this person is going to be offended to death, but think about the current situation......

"Then say it, if you don't say it, how can Lone know if it's suitable or not?" Li Yuanji asked with a smile, this rhythm is no problem, professional people do professional things, only in this way can they be idle and do what they want to do, and quietly gave Pei Ju an encouraging look.

Pei Ju's heart was horizontal, and he secretly said that his children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and the old man is also for the sake of the common people in the world, and if he offends people, he will offend it, so he can't care so much, and said: "Now the drought has swept through Guanzhong, the Central Plains and other dozens of states, and there will be a catastrophe after the drought, and the minister has noticed that there is a crisis of locust outbreak, so the only thing the court can do now is to store grain, and try all means to store grain, and then take advantage of the fact that the drought has not completely broken out now, you can appropriately immigrate to Qi to reduce the pressure in Guanzhong, the Central Plains and other places to ensure that the crisis breaks out." to save more people. ”

"It's okay to immigrate, but how many people can Qi accept? The Changping Imperial Court has been established for more than half a year, and the progress has always been unsatisfactory, and now that the drought is coming, who is willing to resell grain to the imperial court at a low price? Fang Xuanling seemed to accept this fate, and also stood up and put forward his opinion.

How many people can Qi accept? No one knows except Lee Won-gil.

Now that they have passed, they can't catch up with this year's wasteland, and the past is equivalent to Qi Guo will support them for a year and a half, how many people can be supported by the existing land? After the poor and white people have passed, will they be able to survive this winter?

Pei Ju's voice is very simple and clear, there is no surplus grain in the hands of the people, and if you want to collect grain, you can only buy it from the family and those landlords, but which of those gentry is easy to mess with? Even if Li Yuanji comes forward in person, they may not be able to sell this face, this matter is simple to say, but if it is really done, it is not much easier than ascending to the sky.

"Why don't you hold a sacrifice and ask for rain?" Someone immediately suggested.

Li Yuanji secretly glanced at the man, no matter how big an official you are, this thing has already been beaten to death in his heart.

Special meow, natural disasters don't want to solve it, and they actually want to rely on sacrifices to ask for rain, typical feudal superstition, although they are about to become feudal monarchs, they are also superstitious.

"Pedantic!" Li Yuanji, who was very unhappy in his heart, did not shy away from scolding directly.

In the past, it was to correct Ma Zhou's pedantry alone, and it was almost corrected, but this time when he went south, he left Ma Zhou in Qi State, and he didn't expect that the entire court was full of such pedantics.

was scolded by Li Yuanji in public, and these ministers couldn't hold back their faces.

Although I don't know who he is scolding, what does it matter? Now it seems that it should be all the people who are scolded, which makes them faintly feel a little aggrieved, and they may not be able to call it a little hard, but it is still okay to be cautious, and in the end they are scolded for being pedantic?

"Brains, brains are such a good thing, I wish you had them too!" seems to hate iron and steel, as if to vent his previous anger, Li Yuanji is still unforgiving and scolding.

But Li Yuanji is not the kind of person who doesn't know the general situation, and it will be a matter of scolding two sentences, and if he continues to scold, it is estimated that these ministers will resign and return to their hometowns, brushed a trace of hair, walked to the center, turned to look at these ministers, and continued:

"Without Zhang Butcher, can't you still eat meat? Drought will inevitably have an impact on food, since you can think of stockpiling grain and immigration, why don't you use your brains more? Think of some other way out? On the grassland, there is no food to eat, they eat meat for a living, beef, mutton, meat of old war horses, some of the water we don't care about, they can still eat, although the taste is not very good.

In the hinterland of the Central Plains, apart from grain and grain, without grain there is nothing to lose. At the border pass, even if you eat grain, you occasionally eat a few meals of meat, why can't you neutralize it? If the food is gone, why can't we find a way to raise more livestock? Chickens, ducks, sheep, and even pork and fish, aren't these food?

Chickens, ducks, and sheep can be traded alive, and pork and fish can be marinated and dried to dry, which can be one of the rations. ”

Li Yuanji's idea can indeed be called a brain-opener, and in the past, these ministers had never thought about this aspect at all.

Pork is cheap meat, with a stinking smell all over the body, except for the people who really have nothing to eat, people with a little status will not bang it, so they naturally ignore this aspect.

Since pork is cheap meat, the people naturally don't want to eat it, so breeding has become a big problem, and no one raises it, so there are fewer and fewer of them.

Chickens, ducks and sheep are raised, but these are all expensive meats, and they are definitely reluctant to eat them, and they are all used for money or food.

As for the fish......

"I'm afraid the fish is not easy to transport, right? Wouldn't it go bad if it was marinated into dried fish? At the age of eighty, under the guidance of Li Yuanji, Pei Ju successfully transformed into a curious baby, and asked with a tangled face.

"How can fish that has been marinated and dried go bad? Isn't the beef jerky and mutton jerky on the grassland not bad? It was also very convenient for the soldiers to carry around. Li Yuanji rolled his eyes helplessly, where is the common sense, where is the common sense? In the face of the dilemma of the great drought, it will be more effective only if the cost reduction and open source are carried out at the same time.

Turning his head to look at the low-ranking man, this thing is looking around this palace, and the degree of curiosity is not much better than that of Pei Ju.

"Duh!"

Li Yuanji roared, but he was deeply attracted by this magnificent palace, and he didn't hear it at all.

Su Dingfang next to him could only push him helplessly and pull him out of the dream.

"What are you pushing me for?" Aggressively looked at Su Dingfang with some annoyance, we have a good relationship and a good relationship, you can't disturb people's dreams, do you still have a sense of public morality?

Su Dingfang pointed ahead.

Lose face! It's so embarrassing, you are also a Turkic khan, even if you haven't seen it, can you wait until the next court and then go to watch? Lonely's face has been lost by you.

"Do your soldiers make jerky?" Li Yuanji hurriedly asked, using this to hide his embarrassment.

"Will ......" Dubi nodded subconsciously, and also realized that he seemed to be out of trouble, "There are two kinds of jerky, one is without salt, this is not easy to preserve, and it will spoil part or even all of it in the process of drying." The other is to put salt, the success rate is very high, as long as it is dried and sunburned thoroughly, it is not a problem to put it for a year or two, but there is a lack of salt on the grassland, otherwise I would definitely save his rations for ten or eight years......"

Li Yuanji couldn't find a nail to nail this product directly to the mouth, why didn't he find out that this thing talked so much before? Hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Okay, just do it, and when you go back, you can pick two thousand from your soldiers and teach the people how to make jerky." ”

"Xuan Ling, the edict is issued to all localities, where there is a lake, the government will organize fishing, and the government in all coastal areas should be organized in a unified manner, go to the sea to fish, and then dry it, and transport it to various places to close the warehouse for storage, this is the first priority at the moment, and those who violate the order will be dealt with severely......"
