Text 769 Shinong Industry and Commerce
Wu Mei looked at the piece handed over by Di Renjie, and there was a faint worry between her brows.
I have to say that Di Renjie did this a bit excessively, bypassing His Majesty and the Prince, but presenting the chapter to himself.
Moreover, this piece was not given to the imperial court, but was directly given to him by King Zhenla, which makes people have to think about what kind of connection or exchange of interests there is between the two.
But having said that, if you think about the problem from Di Renjie's standpoint, you can also see that he is thinking about the Tang Dynasty and the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.
Datang is now peaceful all over the world, except for a trouble-provoking prince who had to fight with Da Shi last year, it is this year that it is vague, and the envoys of various countries who have begun to leave after the Shangyuan Festival have begun to speculate in their hearts whether the relationship between Datang and Zhenla can still be as peaceful and friendly as in previous years.
And Di Renjie's starting point is nothing else, just to hope to protect everything in the Tang Dynasty as much as possible, instead of collapsing in an unbelievable way in an instant after a few years of prosperity like the former Sui.
"Why don't you just play the prince? Even if the crown prince ignores it, you should play His Majesty, but why do you play the palace directly? The music in Wu Mei's hand shook gently, and it was impossible to hear whether she was satisfied or dissatisfied with Di Renjie's performance.
"Back to the queen, the minister knows that what the minister has done is the great disrespect of the courtier. But...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been in charge of the government for many years, and His Majesty has long been negligent in the court, and I am afraid that His Majesty will not be able to come up with a correct idea in this matter. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is at the time when he is strong in blood and vigor, young and promising, and he is expanding his territory, and he is trying his best to emulate the gods of the first emperor Xingtian Khan, and the ministers think that His Royal Highness is a little too demanding! During the Zhenguan period, the first emperor used troops because of the internal and external troubles of my Tang Dynasty, and he was poor and weak, so he had to do so. Now I come to congratulate the Tang Dynasty, the envoys are obedient, don't respect my Tang Dynasty as the kingdom, if the king of Zhenla is teasing the princess of Her Royal Highness, and use troops to the country of Zhenla, in this way, the minister is worried that my Tang Dynasty is so prosperous and prosperous, will ...... Vanish! Di Renjie bowed and said hurriedly, and fine sweat began to break out on his forehead unconsciously.
"You agree with the prince's expedition to Anxi, Anton, and the Wa Kingdom, even if you fought with Dashi last year and the war spread to Tocharo, you were never so excited, why? The imperial court did not receive the plea of King Zhenla, but you Di Renjie received the concert of King Zhenla, why is this? The prestige of the Tang Dynasty has increased all over the world, so that all countries come to congratulate, how much has the prince of such a prosperous era contributed? Even if this palace agrees with your advice, I just don't know how do you plan to solve the matter of Prince Zhenla's flirtatation with Princess Taiping of Zhenguo? Lose the face of the royal family and the reputation of the Tang Dynasty? Wu Mei looked at Di Renjie, who had been bending down and saluting, and asked lightly.
What about the prince's youth? If there is no prince, I am afraid that the Tang Dynasty will not have today, surpassing the glory of the Zhenguan period.
"Give me time, I will surpass the first emperor, let the Tang Dynasty stand in a strong and prosperous world, and use it without the invasion of other countries, let alone let the soldiers come to the capital!" When he persuaded himself and His Majesty to promise him to build Taiyi City, the little guy who was less than ten years old stood on his bed and made such a bold statement, although after he finished speaking, he was slapped from the bed to the ground by himself, but the little guy was still proud to get up, and was finally kicked out of the palace by his father.
The emperor's kick and the queen's slap were all slapped on the buttocks, but since then, Datang has had an additional cornucopia of prosperity and prosperity: Taiyi City.
If it weren't for the fact that there were always some strange things in Taiyi City for so many years, Datang would not have been able to go now.
Sometimes I look back and think that if it wasn't for Li Hong's Taiyi City, then the many sharp weapons used to fight on the battlefield, the bright lampshades on the palace passages, those perfumes and soaps are indispensable, not to mention, just those overseas auspicious rui, in just one year, let Datang see the hope of letting the people eat and wear warmth, and even became the foundation of Datang's founding of the country.
If there were no Li Hong, there would be no such things, so what would Datang look like today? Yuan Day and Shangyuan Festival, will they be as lively as in the past two years? Or will it be as lifeless as it used to be?
After people get used to something, they want to get rid of these things that have been integrated into their daily lives, which not only requires courage, but also requires a greater price.
Just like in the previous life, if Renmei put aside all the things derived from the e-commerce era, would it still be able to really adapt to that kind of life? The answer is clearly no.
The development of the times and the pace of history will never make people go back and ponder when they move forward, and then let you go through it again.
Life is the same, a decision may seem inconspicuous at first, but you don't know how much your choice will affect your future destiny.
Datang has now embarked on this giant ship built and piloted by Li Hong, so its direction and speed must continue according to Li Hong's original design.
Once the course changes, no one knows whether the consequences will be a blessing or a curse for Datang.
"King Zhenla is willing to apologize solemnly for this, and if they can't dissipate Her Royal Highness's anger, they are willing to ...... with some rare treasures."
"Di Renjie, Di Renjie, you are really smart and confused for a while, do you think this palace will care about those things, or is the Tang Dynasty lacking those? Or do you think the prince cares? ”
"Queen, the minister is not trying to say anything for the Zhenla Kingdom, the minister has no personal relationship with the king of Annan, and even before receiving the recital of the king of Annan, he didn't know this person at all. The reason why the minister risked great disrespect to admonish the queen was really out of loyalty for the sake of my Tang Dynasty, not for his own benefit. The beads of sweat on Di Renjie's forehead were getting more and more, and he didn't even have the courage to look at Wu Mei.
In his opinion, the queen's current tone is obviously not wanting to care, and she is unwilling or unable to take care of this matter.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been governing for many years, and he has seen it clearly above the court, and the laws and regulations of the Tang Dynasty are being revised, and the status of merchants, as well as the reset and development of capital, including the changes in the status of Shinong industry and commerce, are also gradually changing.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, Tao Zhu Gong Fan Li, when he assisted Gou Jian to destroy the Wu State, his great merit was unsurpassed, such brilliant achievements and the reputation of a very popular minister, it was enough to make him go down in history with other virtuous ministers.
But in the end, because of his business behavior in the second half of his life, he was not ranked with other virtuous ministers in many historical records, and even some of his merits and influential people could not be ranked with him!
It is enough to imagine that during this period, the class status of Shinong industry and commerce had already been laid down, and it had never been and could not be changed.
But when he arrived at His Royal Highness the Prince, in order to speak and support today's businessmen, he even tampered with the meaning of "Guanzi", and clearly pointed out that its explanation of Shinong Industry and Commerce was not because of the size of its contribution to the country, nor because of the class and status of people.
In fact, it refers to the four fundamental aspects of governing the country's society: scholars, agriculture, industry, and commerce, and the four inseparable aspects are not classes.
In such a reversal of black and white, under the remarks of His Royal Highness the Prince, the merchants are now about to become a class no less than the status of the peasants and workers, and even have the potential to catch up with and surpass the first class of scholars.
In this way, the people of the world will inevitably one day criticize His Royal Highness the Prince, and at that time, Datang will fall into the predicament of internal and external troubles and cannot extricate itself, and its situation is critical.
So when Di Renjie was desperate, he could only turn to the queen for help, after all, no matter how His Royal Highness the Crown Prince acted, he had always obeyed the words of His Majesty or the queen.
Now His Majesty has been negligent in the court for many years, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in charge of the government, and now he can't expect His Majesty to solve the worries of the Tang Dynasty, so he can only come to the queen to give it a try.
"Since it's not for your own benefit, why don't you play it to the prince in a dignified manner? The mother of this palace is the world, in charge of the harem, and when His Majesty was dizzy, he managed the government on behalf of His Majesty, and it has attracted the advice and impeachment of the courtiers, and now, ah...... The palace is also tired, and it is clean, and the prince has been in charge of the court affairs for many years, and the reason why the palace and His Majesty can sit back and relax is also because of the belief in the prince's ability to deal with the court. Wu Mei replied to Di Renjie's words lightly, regardless of whether Prince Zhenla was framed and used by others, but if he dared to give birth to a blasphemous heart, this person should die!
Li Hong cut off one of his arms, which was already light.
"But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is only twenty-five years old now, and Pei Xingjian and others have Pei Xingjian and others to assist His Royal Highness in the matter of Anxi, and Anton has His Majesty on his side, but if His Royal Highness goes to the southwest, Lingnan is mostly a land of smoke and miasma, and it is easy to suffer from miasma, and now there is no good medicine for treatment. The minister is deeply afraid that if His Royal Highness leads the army to the southwest, my Tang soldiers will not be able to adapt to the ....... ”
"The capital protector of the Annan Metropolitan Protectorate is called Liu Yanyou, right? How many years has he been in charge of the Protectorate of Annam? Dead? Wu Mei admired the nails she dyed with Pei Wanying before going to the Shangyuan Festival yesterday, and asked lightly.
"But ......."
"Tomorrow, tomorrow you go and tell the prince in person, this palace as the queen can no longer interfere in politics, Li Qiao of the Yushitai, who doesn't know that he is the prince's person, if he impeaches the palace above the court, it is Your Majesty...... I'm afraid I won't open the net. "Wu Mei has decided since the last time that no matter what time, she will stand firmly behind Li Hong and support him.
After all, the development of Chang'an City has changed too much in recent years, which has expanded nearly twice the Chang'an City, and when she occasionally takes out the map of Chang'an on a whim and compares it with the present, in the face of the gap between the two, she was instantly shocked that she was speechless for a long time.
And when Wang Lou told her that Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, was already a huge capital city with a population of two million, or even a population of three million, Li Zhi behind the queen took a sip of tea, and there was no waste at all, all of which was sprayed on Wu Mei's plump hip skirt.
"Ahem, ahem...... Right...... I'm sorry, I just think that if Li Hong is disobedient in the future, the two of us will threaten him to establish a country in Chang'an and establish a great Tang Dynasty, and anger him Li Hong. Li Zhi's coughing face turned red, but he couldn't suppress the idea of "rebellion" in his mind at all!
