Speaking from the heart, Du Ruhui is also fighting, he knows very well that he doesn't know how many people he will offend when he says this, but now he can't help but say it.

You must know that his current body is not as good as day by day, and he may not be able to hold it one day, so he would rather offend others than sell this favor to Li Chengqian, just in exchange for the care of His Majesty the Emperor of the Du family.

After Li Chengqian experienced Wei Zheng's incident, he had more or less understood what these old guys really thought, which made him feel that while the hero was in his twilight, he had to once again learn what 'family and country are in the world'.

But what can he say about this, the current things are obviously beneficial to him, if he has to overdo it, then he can only lose the 'people's heart', and a group of subordinates will abandon him.

Finally, he knew the old man's difficulties at the beginning, why he had such a strange expression when he mentioned to the old man several times that 'the family and the country and the world' were unacceptable.

At that time, the old man disdained to argue with him, and that strange gaze can now be understood by Li Chengqian, which means 'standing and talking without back pain'.

All this is said slowly, in fact, it is only in a thought, just after Du Ruhui finished speaking, Li Chengqian has actually approved his suggestion, so he nodded and said: "What Du Lao said is reasonable, this matter should be handled in this way." ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Du Ruhui replied with a smile, only his old partner Fang Xuanling glanced at him with a regretful gaze.

However, Li Chengqian didn't care about this, clapped his hands lightly and said: "Then let's discuss how many people each family needs to keep, in addition, those farms run by the court seem to be able to accept them, those farms are basically retired soldiers, or injured, or old, they can get together and have a place to talk." ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!" This time, it was said by a few old fellows, although in their hearts they did not very much agree with Li Chengqian's opinion.

Family general, this is a nice name, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is the private soldiers and thugs raised by these high-ranking officials and dignitaries, who usually take care of the family and nursing home, and can also do something else at critical moments.

But now because of Lao Du's words, it is obvious that these family generals will not be able to stay, which means that in the future, their family will no longer have any way but to let others slaughter when facing the imperial power.

Of course, if they don't want to rebel, the generals don't really have much effect, and they can even be regarded as a burden.

But after all, it's better than nothing, it's like the speed limit on the highway in later generations, there are not so many capture devices on the road at ordinary times, and in fact, everyone is not speeding when driving. Later, the installation equipment was installed, and although everyone still drove as before, they just felt uncomfortable, and they always felt like they were being watched, and it was a reason not to be trusted.

Therefore, the 'Shengming' in the mouths of several old men was obviously emotional, but it was forced to do so due to the situation.

As for Li Chengqian, he doesn't care so much, Lao Du's words are very reasonable in his opinion, and it is also very necessary, and it is also necessary to separate those so-called family generals from the nobles and the big family, which still has a certain stabilizing effect on the situation of the Tang Dynasty.

At least in some ways, the local security will be much better, and the other is that the absence of a general, just like the absence of a 'gun' in his hand, may also make the nobles more restrained.

Therefore, some old men were dissatisfied, but he acted as if he didn't hear it, and waved his hand indifferently: "This matter is so decided, go back to the household department to do a spectrum investigation, count all the generals in the noble family, and then arrange it by the court." ”

"Whoa!" Tang Jian took over as the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs again because of some special relationships.

However, because of the conflict with the old man's name, the current Ministry of Civil Affairs was changed to the Ministry of Households by Li Chengqian, so he became the legendary Secretary of the Ministry of Households.

"As for the question of how many servants there are, you can discuss this when you have time, and go back and set a standard for me to report." Li Chengqian originally planned to settle this matter today, but when he saw that a group of old guys were all emotional, he knew that he was afraid that this matter would not be settled today, so it was better to simply end this discussion.

Seeing that Li Chengqian did not continue to force them to make up their minds, several old guys were also relieved one by one, and said in unison: "The ministers obey the order!" ”

"Well, this matter is settled for the time being, but I just thought of something, and I still need you to give it to the staff."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

Li Chengqian smacked his lips, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and thought for a while before saying: "You are all veterans of the two dynasties or the three dynasties, and your contributions to the Tang Dynasty are obvious to all. ”

"Your Majesty is benevolent." For Li Chengqian to affirm their achievements in the past few decades, several old guys were very pleased, and praised them one after another.

Li Chengqian pressed his hand down, motioned to a few old men to calm down, and then continued: "So you are all the most valuable wealth of Datang, for me, each of them is a wealth of ten thousand gold, one hundred thousand gold cannot be exchanged, but the years are easy to grow old, and the years are ruthless, today I saw the situation of Du Lao, and suddenly felt unbearable!" ”

"You've all grown up watching me, I'm ......"

Du Ruhui saw that Li Chengqian's old matter was brought up again, and he didn't feel a good feeling in his heart, so he said forcefully: "Your Majesty! The old minister ......, the old minister is ashamed! ”

"No, Du Lao has made great contributions to the country." Li Chengqian shook his head, and said with a look of determination in his eyes: "And it's not just Du Lao, but also Fang Lao, and all of you, everyone is a meritorious minister of the country." Therefore, I have decided that in the future, all courtiers who have reached the age of 50 and above the third rank will be given two nursing expenses per day, and at the same time can enjoy the special care treatment of the exclusive medical team. ”

"Your Majesty is merciful!" Several old men who were still jealous of Du Ruhui just now smiled, and Lao Du also breathed a long sigh of relief.

With his shrewdness, how could he not know that at the beginning, Li Chengqian's arrangement of the imperial physician to be stationed in the Du Mansion had already aroused the envy of everyone, but it must have been the kindness of His Majesty the Emperor, and he could not refuse, so Lao Du was still thinking about how to find a way to get the young emperor who could find trouble to withdraw this order.

But now it is not necessary, because everyone has this treatment, and no one has to look at others.

At the same time, this also represents a kind of recognition of them by Datang, although none of them have a bad income of sixty yuan a month, but they care whether they are recognized, or whether Li Chengqian really cares about them.

So when Li Chengqian gave this order, the old man breathed a sigh of relief, and the others all smiled with satisfaction.
