Chapter Seventy-Five: Travel
Li Su continued: "If there are still not enough laborers, the minister has a suggestion. In the prisons of the counties along the www.biquge.info, there are many criminals, and it is really a waste to raise them to eat idle meals every day.
Some honest and able-bodied prisoners can be organized to participate in the construction of roads at the construction site. For those who perform well in labor, the sentence may be appropriately commuted.
This would not only reduce the expenses of the imperial court, but also facilitate the imperial court's reform of these prisoners. This method is called labor reform. ”
Li Zheng's suggestion was immediately opposed by Wei Zheng, and Li Tai, the king of Wei, also supported Wei Zheng's opinion, believing that forced prisoners to work was inhumane.
The crown prince Li Chengqian and Li Su wore a pair of pants and absolutely supported it.
General Li Jing usually cherishes words like gold, and he does not express any opinions on matters unrelated to military affairs.
Gao Jingming, the head of the household, heard that he could save money and expressed his support; When the Ministry of Industry heard that the number of workers could be increased, he also expressed his support.
Neither the eldest grandson Wuji nor Cen Wenwen spoke, ready to persuade at any time.
Li Ke has a strong personality and thinks that labor reform is feasible, and he rarely supports Li Ke once.
Li Shimin watched these people arguing from the side, ready to wait for them to finish arguing and making decisions on the basis of the cadres.
At this time, Li Su, like no one else, picked up two different ice creams and studied which one to eat first. Now the matter has nothing to do with him, he is thinking about going to Lishan, and after arriving in Datang, he has not gone out for an outing.
Two days later, Li Su organized the people again and prepared to go out to Lishan to inspect and build a cement factory. As soon as he got into the carriage, he heard the sound of horses' hooves, and someone shouted, "Wait a minute." ”
Li Ning'er in the carriage covered her ears with her hands, worried that she would hear something bad again, so that Li Su couldn't go out, she had to go home and wait, she had been looking forward to going out to play for a long time.
The person who came was Duhe, and he came to the side of the carriage, opened the curtain directly, and got in. He looked shy, and said, "Brother Su, you want to go out, and you won't tell me?" ”
Li Su asked curiously: "Aren't you in the planting base in Chang'an County, why did you come back?" ”
Du He said with a bitter face: "Don't mention it, there is nothing anywhere, there are so many mosquitoes, it's boring." "It's really hard for him, since he was in charge of the planting base, he often stayed in that remote countryside, and life was really difficult.
Du He then said: "Brother Su, I told Director Huang (Qi) that he is on duty at the base these days, and I will protect you from going out to investigate." ”
Li Su smiled: "Protect a fart." If you want to hang out, just say it. ”
Du He said, "You agree with me to go?" ”
Li Su asked, "Don't I agree?" ”
"No way!" Du He said categorically.
Li Su asked, "Do you want to go home and get something?" ”
"Hehe, I've been ready for two days." Duhe said with a hippie smile.
Li Ning'er smiled: "Brother Duhe, you scared me. I thought it was the emperor's uncle who was looking for Brother Liang Wang. ”
Du He smiled, opened the door curtain, and shouted outside: "Yang Kang, let's go." ”
The body shook slightly, and it drove up.
Liang Wang Li Su led the people of the Ministry of Industry, a group of 9 carriages, under the escort of Cheng Chumo, to Lishan to find a suitable location for the establishment of a cement plant.
In the Taiji Palace, Li Shimin's study.
When Zhongshu Shilang (Secretary General) Cen Wenwen came out of Li Shimin's study, he saw Li Shimin's guard captain Ma Xuanliang coming in a hurry.
In the Tang Dynasty, the only people who could directly meet Li Shimin without going through the transmission were Empress Changsun, Changsun Wuji and Ma Xuanliang.
Cen Wenwen looked at Ma Xuanliang's disappearing back, muttered for a moment, and walked away.
In the study, Ma Xuanliang reported: "Your Majesty, the people sent out by the ministers have been exploring in many ways near the planting base in Chang'an County, and the grain base has indeed been attacked by a large number of people and horses, and Cheng Chumo and others are not lying. ”
"Did you find out who did it?" Li Shimin asked.
"Not for the time being, but the minister can be sure that these people are not from the King of Shu and the King of Wei, but a group of people of unknown origin. The minister's subordinates inquired that the nearby peasant households, and that night, found about dozens of knights, led by two men and one woman, whose appearance and age were not clearly seen because it was dark.
These people are not people who walk around the rivers and lakes, otherwise, the minister must be able to know their clues. ”
Li Shimin said with a gloomy face: "There are so many people, they do things so secretly, and they can disappear quickly, it's not a small thing." ”
Ma Xuanliang said: "The minister must try his best to track them down and strive to find out their origin as soon as possible." ”
Located about 18 kilometers northeast of Chang'an City, Lishan Mountain is one of the famous mountains in China, and she is an important part of the Tang Huaqing Palace. Its forest landscape is unique, with thousands of acres of side Berlin, Lishan twisted cypress, Bajie visible tree and so on. Its mountains are steep and its faults are unique. The 5,000-year-old Chinese culture has left its mark on Lishan, with many historic sites, profound history and culture, royal style of palace villas, and geothermal hot springs.
"The clouds and trees of Lishan are lush and green, and they have gone through the Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang dynasties. A vein of warm soup flows day and night, and a few barren mounds cover the emperor. These two lines of Mr. Guo Moruo's poems are just right to tell people the history of Lishan. It has become a fascinating tourist destination.
Li Su's decision to go to Lishan to inspect and build a cement factory is pure nonsense. In such a beautiful environment, it would be a terrible thing to build a heavy source of pollution such as a cement factory.
In fact, Li Su checked from Baidu that there are several large cement factories in modern Xi'an, and the location is not in Lishan. He was bored with staying in Chang'an City, so he found an excuse to travel, and was going to visit Lishan first, and then inspect the location of the cement factory marked on Baidu.
At this time, it has entered the summer, and because they came out early, the road is still relatively cool.
In the wide carriage, Li Su, Du He and Li Ning'er were fighting the landlord. Yarn pickers waited on them.
Li Yu Taobao came to poker, and these people around him had already learned it.
Among the three, Du He was the stupidest, couldn't remember the cards, lost the most, and had a note all over his face. Li Su also had a few notes on his face, Li Ning'er had the least on his face, and the little guy's eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile.
Cai Sha is also a child who likes to play cards, but it is not her turn here. She looked at Du He's stupid appearance and couldn't help but point out. Du He lost too many times, so he simply handed the cards to Cai Sha, and he watched the game from the side.
Cai Yarn is also very smart, and as soon as she came up, the situation changed. Li Ning'er was unlucky, grabbed several stinky cards one after another, lost vigorously, and began to paste notes on her little face.
At this time, Li Ning'er couldn't laugh anymore, and she had a bitter look on her little face, and she was about to cry.
Li Su saw it, and hurriedly released the water, Li Ning'er won, and her little face smiled again. Cai's little mouth pouted, and his eyes were red.
Li Su felt that it was not fun, and Jue said: "Pick yarn, bring sorbet." "When dealing with children, good food is definitely the best way to deal with it.
Just then, the carriage stopped. Cheng Chumo's shout came from outside: "What kind of person, hurry up and get out of the way." ”
