Chapter 43: A Sigh (2)

Chapter 43 into sigh II

When there was no owner of the six gods of Ashina Duzhi, Pei Xingjian sent a messenger over and said to him, "I, Pei someone, in the name of business trips, rarely passed through my hometown, and I was happy in my heart, so I drank old wine and hunted, so I was a little one. You Ashina Duzhi is also my old subordinate, old friend, I have no intention of coming to your home today, can you enjoy a face and accompany Pei to have a good time?

Ashina is frustrated.

What does it mean to inadvertently pass through one's own mouth, this understands, is to let yourself bear the guilt, be lenient, and do your best.

The Tang Dynasty's policy towards the Hu people, Li Wei was very opposed, some places said it explicitly, some places said it implicitly, the surface respected, the heart despised, some people said that Li Shimin valued Hu and despised the man, it was not right, he had many times in his conversation to despise the Hu people, this weight is just a strategy of restraint. There are advantages and disadvantages, but as opposed by Li Wei, Wei Zheng and others, they have indeed done many things that harm the interests of the Han people and strengthen the Hu people. Therefore, Li Wei and Pei Xingjian have made a jā talk, this cannot lose the branches and leaves first, but the branches and leaves must first export nutrients to the roots, and the roots and stems can be properly fed, and the main Han people cannot be harmed and the Hu people can be strengthened. But the Hu people cannot be excluded, so that they can be assimilated, or given appropriate respect psychologically.

That is, the whole policy happens to be reversed.

But at this time, there was a benefit, the Tang Dynasty did not kill and surrender Hu, Ashina was poor, thought about it for a while, and even had no courage to resist, so he came to Pei Xingjian's camp with five hundred guards to ask for guilt. Let Pei Xingjian take it, and take his order arrow.

The ten surnames of the Western Regions are ten powerful races, but there are countless small countries, similar to the situation of Nanzhao, for example, Tocharian has hundreds of small countries, each of which has many subjects, and there are also a number of subjugated tribes. When giving orders, the people of the Central Plains use seals, but the people of the Western Regions use arrows, and when they see arrows, they see people.

With this arrow, he summoned all the cronies of the Ashina Duzhi to Shattered Leaf City, and captured them alive. But this matter was given to Cheng Wutin, and he himself led the army, marched lightly, and quickly pounced on Li Sha's department. Lu met Li Shalu's messenger and arrested him, Pei Xingjian said to him: "You go back to report to your master, just say that Ashina Duzhi has been taken down by Pei someone, and he decides for himself what to do." ”

It's a powerful self-confidence.

The worry is that if the two join forces, things will not be very easy to handle, and now there is only one left, and the chiefs of the accompanying "hunting" departments have also reacted that they have been called by others as the tip of a gun. However, Ashina Duzhi and his subordinates have been arrested, so they have to Pei Xingjian, the "thief ship". The troops brought are not many, and the troops that may be mobilized are enough to deal with Li Shalu. And his army is not far from Li Shalu's camp, leaving little time and space for Li Shalu to transfer troops.

Therefore, take it again.

As soon as the envoy went back, Pei Xingjian's army had arrived in front of him, and Li Shaluo saw that the big event had gone, so he had to surrender again.

This battle was magical.

It cannot be said that the two divisions are not strong, if they are well prepared, it is possible to mobilize hundreds of thousands of rebels. However, Pei Xingjian's line, drinking old wine and hunting, captured all the two chiefs and their subordinate henchmen, and did it truly without blood.

This is also a miracle in China's entire military history of several thousand years.

Later, when the news reached Luoyang, a group of ministers stared at them in shock. One by one, I thought in my heart that it was indeed the teacher who taught the emperor, which was extraordinary.

However, there are many affairs, such as the distribution of interests, local affairs, and governance, and some of the two people's close friends have been arrested one after another. Pei Xingjian asked Wang Fangyi to send the Persian king back to his homeland and preside over the affairs of the Western Turks himself. But when he arrived in Tochar, fearing the great cannibals, the king of Persia stayed in Tocharian and did not go south. At this time, Pei Xingjian received a holy decree from the imperial court and asked him to go back.

The same sigh.

The border troubles almost got together, and there were too few generals at the disposal of the DPRK and China. At this time, it is not very good to go back, there are still many remnants that have not been cleared, and the hidden dangers of the Western Turks still exist. However, the Eastern Turks had a big hidden danger, weighed it, waited for a while, and rushed back to Luoyang non-stop.

……

There is also the Zheng family sighing.

Zheng Gongchu left the palace and immediately brought Li Wei's words back to Xingyang.

As soon as I heard this, the people of the Zheng family in Xingyang blew up the camp, this emperor is inevitably too big, not only let my family marry a daughter to a small businessman, but now we don't count the name, marry the daughter of the lineage, to you, you still hate this and that.

It's a big deal.

There was injustice in his heart, even a few elders also thought that Li Wei had gone too far.

Zheng Gongchu's grandfather wrinkled his old face, and when everyone was so noisy that he had no strength, he said slowly: "How many rounds of cultivation land are there outside Xingyang City?" ”

At first, the people didn't believe it very much, thinking that as long as they planted something, they would allocate the land. But the government is taking the initiative to promote, anyway, it is an experiment, so the land of rotational cultivation, planting beans in summer, milk vetch in winter, and planting pennies if you can't plant them, all of them are green fé. Some people learn, some people don't. However, after a few years, it seems that the soil fertility has not been removed, on the contrary, the legume pennies have accumulated a large amount of nitrogen fé, as well as green fé, and the crops have grown vigorously. No matter how much the beans are planted and the harvest is, it is definitely more profitable to plant than not to plant. Except for a few areas, especially in the Central Plains such as Xingyang, the rotational cultivation fields are no longer visible.

This refers to the merits of the emperor.

He also said: "In the past, each acre of land was harvested with two stones, but this year I inquired, and after a comprehensive apportionment of each acre, it has been more than three stones. But why is food still in short supply? ”

Cotton was planted, navigation also brought a large number of exports, the area of mulberry fields has not decreased, cotton is used more, weaving, making quilts and cotton clothes, the key is the people's homes, there were no before, and the vacancy is very large. Food production is increasing, but the area under cultivation is decreasing, so food prices have not really come down.

Zheng Gongchu's fourth uncle said: "Father, yes, this is from Qi Min's technique. ”

"Really? Qi Min Yaoshu has also seen it, is there any cotton, is there a nutrient bowl transplant? Is there any sailing? Is there any mention of two canals? Is there a bamboo paper ......? ”

"Father, this is what the emperor heard from people from a distant land."

"Really? So many Yi countries in the west have arrived in Luoyang, and they also said that the west of the Frankish kingdom is an endless sea, where is this advanced country? Why is it that only His Majesty the Emperor has heard of it, and no one else has heard of it? I talked a lot with Emperor Jā that night, and he said many shocking things, and I asked him several times, but he just pointed to the sky and said nothing......"

"No, it won't."

"I doubt it in my heart...... It can be said that a simple example, a few years ago, the main production area of Wen Aya was in Luoyang, Xingyang also had, one of the dozens of fine silk in the Tang Dynasty was 100 Wen per foot, and Haike sold more, and it has grown in recent years, last year it was 15 Wen, and this year it has risen to more than 120 Wen. However, after a certain observation, the area of mulberry fields has not increased, or even decreased somewhat, and the fields planted with kudzu and hemp have decreased sharply. Why, it proves that the people have increased the benefits of planting cotton or other benefits, so the price of silk has risen, but the planting area has not risen. It's been a few years, and it's not very clear what will happen in another ten years? I am very jealous of the emperor, not because of his military exploits, and he is not the only one who can fight in the Tang Dynasty. And it is precisely this, and to do such a big thing, it seems that no one pays attention to it, and does not show any heads, what a means this is. He was just too ...... back then Also, the navigation transferred the contradictions and the pressure of the fields, and also transferred the pressure of the imperial court's taxes, and the scale expanded a little more, how much gold and silk did a year bring to the imperial court just by tariffs, and this was only the beginning, and the emperor had no other means in the future? Not only that, Jiangnan, ......"

"What's wrong with Jiangnan?"

"When I was young, I went to visit the family of Taihu Dafang, passed through Jiangnan, and saw a lot of actual situations in Jiangnan. Say one thing, I'm afraid you can understand that when the Three Kingdoms were combined, Sun Quan owned the entire Jiangnan and how many soldiers were requisitioned? It's not that they don't want to conscript, it's that the population is too small, the arable land is too small, and there are not many troops to be recruited. When the Eastern Jin Dynasty moved south, the situation improved slightly, but it was still not developed. Many places are water towns and swamps in the south of the Yangtze River developed maturely, the history will be several hundred years later, when the Southern Song Dynasty moved south, it was officially developed, but in terms of population, the Southern Song Dynasty is still inferior to the Jin State. This time, the emperor went out to inspect Henan Province, which was an understanding and statement, but the two prime ministers went to the south, and the two provinces of Hedong and Hebei were densely populated, and they were important border defense areas of the country, but only Wei Hongji was allowed to inspect, which shows the emperor's ambition ......"

"Big brother is ......," Father Zheng's fifth brother asked suspiciously.

"Once it is developed, most of you have not been there, it will become the granary and treasure house of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty may be five or ten times more prosperous than it is now. However, in order to build water conservancy in the whole country, especially in the south of the Yangtze River, it is necessary to first control the Huai River and Surabaya and other rivers, as well as to build the polder area from the swamps and lakes, and the amount of money required will be an unprecedented amount, even hundreds of millions or billions of trillions. ”

"Wouldn't that be happening?"

This is not true, it is not necessary to develop all of them, and if you develop one piece, you can benefit from one piece. This dim sum is too big, and the emperor's heart is too big, but in the end he can't eat it, at this time, our Zheng family and the emperor are good, and when the time comes, donate money and donate, the emperor has to give us a piece. As long as we eat a small piece of it, our Zheng family will have incomparable benefits...... Not only the two standards in the south of the Yangtze River, but also Qinghai, the Western Regions and Liaodong, this emperor has expressed strong ambitions, but he is not like Wang Mang without moderation, calmly and gradually, so he will be meritorious. Maybe you can't see it, but there will be many of you who will witness a dynasty that has never been seen before. He told me that when an era comes, those who do not cooperate will rise to the top, and those who do not cooperate will inevitably be eliminated under this great torrent. ”

"Grandfather, are you exaggerating him?"

"It's not an exaggeration, it's that I've been thinking about it for a long time. At this time, our Zheng family was still very expensive, and the emperor had not yet controlled all the military powers...... And I talked with him for a long time, he was very sensible, he was very repulsive to us, hindered the prestige of the imperial court, and even thought that we were a big burden to the country, but he didn't want the country to have a big change, so he could solve the problem peacefully and win-win. At this time, although the world is not ashamed, it is the right time. And he will not use force against our major families, and he will not dare. But if you don't use force, you won't weaken our families? Take a look at the popularization of township education across the country, have you thought about the consequences...... This is just one means, and the vague name system of the military examination, and even the name system of the imperial examination in the future, these are two means, if there are ten kinds of eight means. In the next two hundred years, what are the advantages of our major families? Specifically, you consider the importance of the family, one is the real future of the family, and the other is the reputation of the family now......"

Speaking of which, a sigh.

Reason made him think that if he lowered his head a little, the two sides would make concessions, but he was unwilling, bowing his head once, bowing his head twice, bowing his head three times, and the Zheng family in Xingyang also wanted a face and a reputation. Therefore, all the important members of the clan were gathered together and carefully discussed, and even the important members of the Nanzu House and the important members of the Cangzhou House were called to Xingyang to discuss.

This was something Zheng Gongchu couldn't imagine, thinking that the emperor was reasonable, but he didn't expect to bring so much confusion to the family.

After three days of deliberation, the Zheng family made a decision, but after they dispersed, everyone lowered their heads......
