Chapter 292: The news of this year's flowering period is set

"See Your Majesty," Pei Yan saluted, and bowed behind the curtain: "See the Queen of Heaven." ”

In order to clear his name, ordinary ministers usually deliberately neglect the person who hides behind the curtain, but Pei Yan does not, his expression is natural and graceful, and his demeanor is generous, but in terms of demeanor, there seem to be few people in the Manchu Dynasty. This time, he was recalled from Jiangnan, and he was immediately reused, and he was mentioned as the Huangmen Shilang, that is, the Jinshi and the first, looking down on the Huang Lang in the middle Huang Lang, the second governor of the Menxia Province. In the three provinces of the Tang Dynasty, the decision-making of the Chinese book, the deliberation of the door, the implementation of the book, and the political hall of the prime minister's deliberations were in the province of Menxia. is also a squire, and the squire under the Zhongshu Sect has more real power than the squire of the six departments. In fact, in a sense, the authority of the Huangmen squire is not much weaker than that of the prime minister.

Of course, he is also credited, in the past few years for the imperial court to operate, the income of millions of money, public law enforcement, dealing with Zhiping, began to business because of its fines and confiscation and complained, a few years later saw its fairness, the complaint was lost. This is the political achievement, besides, the treasury is dry, although there have been bumper harvests year after year, but the east is conquering Silla, and the west has to fight to the death with Tubo, without Pei Yan, the treasury will not be so rich. As for Liang Lu's first initiative, they have forgotten it. Could it be that two businessmen should be the waiters of the Yellow Gate?

Some people think deeper, this is the emperor's way of balancing. After the prince's affairs, the various prime ministers and important bigwigs in the court made the emperor feel uneasy. But there is an irreparable contradiction between the prince and Pei Yan. This is a constraint and balance on the court.

Or think more far-reaching, that's not great. Seeing that there was no, he went against the crown prince and was immediately promoted to become wealthy, and he was promoted quickly.

As soon as Pei Yan returned to Luoyang, he asked Li Zhi to meet with Wu Zetian.

Seeing his demeanor, Li Zhi was also very satisfied, worthy of being a disciple of the Pei family in Hedong. raised his hand and said, "Pei Qing, please take a seat." ”

Pei Yan sat down generously, and Li Zhi began to talk with Pei Yan about state affairs. The country is relatively stable, mainly on the border, and Silla is always restless. After Li Jinxing withdrew the army, at the request of Liu Renliang, he ordered Li Jinxing to be the ambassador of Jishi Road to guard Kuozhou, and the two states of Shankuo became a horn. Hearing that the Tang Dynasty troops had withdrawn, Lee Jinxing, the Silla scourge, arrived in Qinghai, and the Silla people began to encroach on Baekje again.

Silla really found out the weaknesses of the Tang Dynasty. Due to the government military system, it is not easy to send a large army every time, and it takes a long time to prepare before the army can be gathered. Even if most of the people led by Li Jinxing were Yan people, it was very difficult to collect them. As long as the Tang Dynasty army is launched, please avoid it, and continue to expand at other times, and the Tang Dynasty has few troops and cannot be stopped. Either spare no manpower and material resources to fight with Silla, but with the control of the Tibetans, the Tang Dynasty hesitated. This became a dead end for the Tang Dynasty.

Li Zhi had no choice but to discuss with his ministers. In this bitter place, these little Yizi don't want to fight for their lives, but the Tang Dynasty spends a lot of money every year and sacrifices countless soldiers. However, the occupying Baekje and the common people did not want the Tang Dynasty to rule. So after thinking about it, I sent King Gaozang and King Baekje Fuyulong back. It's not a way, you don't recognize the rule of our Tang Dynasty, your king has gone back, you should recognize their rule.

Then let them fight with themselves, and not let Silla stand alone. Moreover, the fall of *** and Baekje was the result of the alliance between Silla and the Tang Dynasty, and the two sides had fought for many years before, and there was a deep hatred and old hatred. In this way, the Tang Dynasty calmly withdrew, or to see who was pleasing to the eye, and sent some troops to help, and it didn't need many soldiers and horses, so it would control the entire territory of Silla.

The idea is very good, the land of Baekje was originally acquired by the Tang Dynasty, but until now, many people do not want to be managed by the Tang Dynasty and have fled to the territory of Silla, which has become a desolate land, and the rest has been annexed by Silla, and there is very little land left. Buyeo Long did not dare to return to Sihyun, the original capital of Baekje, so he had to settle him in the new city of Hufu in Andong, seal the king of Fang, and lead the governor of Xiongjin to pacify the remnants of Baekje.

He also asked the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Gaozang to be the governor of Liaodong Prefecture and the king of Joseon, and sent back to Liaodong. This Gao Zang has also met with Li Wei a few times, but this Shangshu is a fake position, and the ministers don't really take it seriously. Let him pacify the remnants of the *** in Liaodong and relocate all the Goguryeo diaspora. After the Tang Dynasty was wiped out, the people resisted fiercely, and Li Zhi was furious, and moved the people to the mainland many times, reaching as many as 400,000 before and after. Now there are more than 100,000 households in Liaodong, and it is a helpless move to return the expatriates, otherwise they will not be able to deal with the Silla people.

But when these expatriates arrived, Gao Zang was restless. Together with Fuyu Long in Xincheng, he secretly contacted the Tatar people and intended to rebel. In fact, the Tang Dynasty also took precautions, and did not let Gaozang go to the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate (Pyongyang), but built a new city in the rear, for fear that he would come to this hand. In desperation, he had to be recalled and prepared to send this disobedient *** king to Qiongzhou for resettlement. As a result, the three-nation plan to balance the Korean Peninsula has once again failed. (Han Shiyi said that Xue Rengui floated to the sea this year and was defeated by Silla.) Careful research, impossible. After Xue returned to the imperial court, he was appointed to guard Guazhou. There is no record of other troop dispatch in the history ***, it is about a certain part of the Yan Ya that sent troops privately, and even the defeat of Dafeichuan has been recorded, if there is, how can it not be recorded? Many historians really regard Korean history as real history, is the history of *** credible? Fortunately, the research and scrutiny almost bewitched me)

Mentioning this matter, Pei Yan Zhengse said: "Your Majesty, it's wrong, and the cart has been reversed. ”

This sentence came abruptly, and Li Zhiqi said: "What do you understand." ”

"Silla is located in a cold place overseas, and it is useless to gain it, and it is not hesitant to lose. The same is true of Tibet, as long as it is not allowed to harass the people on the border. This is the end also. The state is the foundation of the imperial court. Today, the two saints are in charge, the country is rich, and the people are peaceful, but there is only one place that is not beautiful. ”

"Where?"

"Your Majesty is benevolent, the queen of heaven is wise, and the prince has made achievements, and there is no sign of prosperity in this country. But the minister dared to say that it was originally a national affair, but now the minister is in Jiangnan, but he heard that the court is in turmoil. Why? ”

Li Zhi didn't make a sound, his son was very disgusted with this Pei Yan, didn't Pei Yan care, but acted as a lobbyist for his son?

"Your Majesty has heard of the crown prince Zaipei, and the minister has heard of it in Puzhou. Although the prince is young and occasionally impulsive, he is also benevolent and filial. The reason why there are all kinds of commotion is that the crown prince is getting older, and His Majesty is prosperous for the sake of national affairs, and occasionally suffers from pain, so the group has different opinions. ”

Li Zhi didn't say anything, but this sentence made him very much agree. The son was not like this when he was young, and in the past few years, it has been like a different person, and it is difficult not to say that there is no "credit" for Di Renjie.

"Home and everything is prosperous, the home of the Son of Heaven is the country. If the family of the Son of Heaven is not harmonious, how can the world be harmonious? The Western Jin Dynasty mixed the universe, unified the eight wildernesses, only a few decades later, it collapsed, fled to the south of the Yangtze River, and lived in a corner, why? The Rebellion of the Eight Kings is the main reason. ”

Li Zhi didn't make a sound, Li Ji and Xu Jingzong said in the past that this is a family affair of the Son of Heaven, why ask outsiders, so they have to establish Wu Zetian as the queen, but now Pei Yan said that the family affairs of the Son of Heaven are state affairs and world affairs. I still didn't understand Pei Yan's intentions.

"The minister thought that this commotion would stop immediately, and the two saints would continue to preside over state affairs, and the prince would assist in learning and observing, which was the foundation of the country."

This sentence is very worthy of Li Zhi's heart, the country, you must also be in charge of yourself, although the son is big, but he is still young, he can only continue to study and be a good student. "But...... Alas...... It's hard to put it into words......"

"Your Majesty, there is nothing difficult in the world, such as untying the rope, finding out where the knot is, and untying it calmly. At that time, the little lady of the Yang family was originally a candidate for the crown princess, but she was retired because of various two saints. This woman is as beautiful as a flower, and the prince is affectionate and trustworthy, and later allowed a good yuan, and because of all this, including the ministers, he wanted to help the prince do better, and wrote a book to admonish. In addition, Yang Weiqing and Xu Sheren made mistakes, degraded Lingnan, and died unsuitable for water and soil, which was not wrong, but there were many criticisms, so the prince asked the second daughter to go to Yangzhou to avoid words. If you are depressed in your heart, you will have it. ”

Li Zhi's brain is not bad, but he didn't hear whether Pei Yan was speaking for his son or talking back. If you say good things, you are affectionate, and if you don't say good things, you are greedy for beauty.

"When Gaozu, Taizong and His Majesty were like princes, they had many sons and daughters, and the prince only had one son, and he was still born by a maidservant, which was not a blessing for the country. The minister also heard in Yangzhou, the two little ladies of the Yang family and the Xu family, after arriving in Yangzhou, lived in a shallow way, but also did their duty. is also an official family, better than Jiang Liangyuan in the East Palace. It is better to be transferred to the East Palace and serve the prince. The crown prince must thank His Majesty and solve the misunderstanding. If there is no misunderstanding between the two saints and the crown prince, the country can be peaceful and the ministers will be stable. Although it is a small matter, it is far more important than the matter of Silla. ”

Is this the case, Li Zhi didn't think about it, just stared at Pei Yan, thinking about the intention of saying these words.

Of course, what I am most worried about is that Pei Yan will "defect".

Pei Yan said again: "If the heavenly family is peaceful and prosperous, the country will prosper." As long as the country is prosperous, Hugh said that the little Silla, even Tubo, why be afraid. Your Majesty, please think again. ”

……

Li Wei didn't know that as soon as Pei Yan entered the palace, he really spoke for him and let the girls enter the East Palace.

But he also had to prepare to return to Luoyang, and before leaving, he called several accompanying officials to Longju Village to gather and asked, "Everyone, have you prepared boots and clothes?" ”

Wei Xuantong said: "I have already sent someone to prepare, but it's just ......"

Unexpected circumstances made it difficult to construct the new canal, mainly because it was wet and in winter. Therefore, according to last year's example, medicinal materials were prepared in advance, and the other person had a cotton coat and a quilt to warm the body. There are also shoes, which are commonly cloth shoes or straw sandals, and boots are only worn by wealthy families. Last winter, Li Wei saw that in the heavy snow, many people were working wrapped in socks and wearing straw sandals. But this year, it's mostly in the wetlands, obviously not. It is best to use rubber boots to prevent moisture, but now there are no rubber trees on the islands of the South China Sea, and even if there are them, Li Wei does not know how to refine rubber. Therefore, it is not a good way to buy a lot of leather and make boots, which are soft when soaked in water, but there is better than nothing. It's just that it's expensive, and although cotton is a little cheaper, it undoubtedly adds a lot of costs.

Wei Xuantong is also a Qing minister, and he was a little reluctant to hear the prince's various practices.

Looking at the green mountains and clear waters in the distance, Li Wei said: "Wei Langzhong, since the people who came to recruit are all poor people. Otherwise, life is heavy, and life is in danger, but the treatment is thin, who wants to come. What is gained from the people and returned to the people should be almsgiving. I also did practical things......"

"Yes."

Yao Xuan looked at the Longju Village not far away, the canal has not yet been repaired here, but many people have come to build houses here, and said: "Your Highness, once the canal is completed, this place will also become a prosperous place." ”

"That's inevitable."

"And as soon as this canal is completed, Guanzhong will be guaranteed," Speaking of this, Yao Xuan's face was a little excited, although he was presided over by the prince, but after the canal was completed, he also had many achievements.

"It's better not to. If it is used for business travel, it will be helpful to the people on both sides of the canal. But if the imperial court used it to requisition grain, it was not the Yellow River after all, the tonnage of the ship was small, if it was a large amount of requisitioning grain, the river would be busy, and the people here would need to bear the burden of carrying and pulling fiber. It is not like the Grand Canal, thousands of miles away, and the people on both sides are dense. There are many mountains here, and the number of people is small, once a large amount of grain is transported from here, it will be a disaster to the people here, and it is not a blessing. ”

"Yes," Yao Xuan replied immediately. Then he said, "Yes, it's better than nothing." ”

One can be seen that the summer grain in Jiangnan has been transferred to Chang'an. From Yangzhou to Chang'an, there were many dangerous sections, causing a large number of ships to sink, and the grain loss rate was nearly 20 percent, and the burden was heavy, and even the officials had to let the rich bear the burden of drowning boatmen on their ships. After two years of reform, first of all, the manpower was gathered to improve the ship technology, the cost will be higher, and the accident rate will be reduced. The second is that the danger of the three doors has not been lifted, but it can be alleviated, and the Guangtong Canal has been opened, so that there is no need to sail from the difficult Weishui, and the accident rate has been reduced. Therefore, the enthusiasm of the rich has increased slightly this year.

Seeing this, there were still capable people in the DPRK and China, and some people gave advice, and on the original sectional voyage, the carrier hired insiders to organize, and dozens of ships were organized as a team, and troops were sent to escort them along the way, and the efficiency was immediately improved. It turns out that from Yangzhou to Chang'an, due to various unfavorable factors, it may take half a year to arrive, or the rich themselves are grinding foreign workers. This time, it only took an average of two and a half months to reach Chang'an, and the fastest only took about 50 days. There are also sunken ships, which can be halved compared with previous years, and the rate of food loss has been reduced by nearly 10 percent. This alone saves tens of thousands of yuan for the country a year, and the people are still called convenient.

If it weren't for Li Zhi's feelings, it is possible that the officials would have raised their hands in celebration.

"That's all I can say, guys, I'll leave it to you." As he spoke, Li Wei got on his horse and headed east. returned to Luoyang, he didn't hear what Pei Yan said, but the news that Pei Yan served as the waiter of the Yellow Gate was learned. Thinking in my heart, Di Renjie said that it was a year, and it was only a few months, could it be that my father, or mother, had any thoughts?

was grinding, and before he arrived in Luoyang, Pei Yan gave him a slap in the face.

: Regarding Pei Yan, because he was killed by Wu Zetian, there are many positive praises in the history books. In fact, no, Pei Yan and Xue Yuanchao were ordered to investigate Li Xian, and they got hundreds of soap armor in the East Palace Mafang, thinking that they were anti-tools. Whether this is the case or not, it is unknown, so Li Xianliu. Li Xian and Pei Yan argued, saying that they wanted to grant Wei Xuanzhen with the world, and as a courtier, they should admonish, but Pei Yan secretly told Wu Zetian, and Wu Zetian asked Pei Yan and Cheng Wu to abolish Li Xian. After Li Xian fell, Wu Zetian killed Pei Yan with a different intention. The fact is that there is a different picture, the new Tang Dynasty *** Zaiyan seeks to take the queen mother out of the dragon gate, it will rain for a long time, and the queen mother will not stop. This period of history was not recorded in the Zizhi Tongjian because Sima Guang fell into the military and deliberately erased the martial arts. At this time, Li Dan was still young and weak. If he is a loyal minister, he will bring down Li Xian, Li Xian, and Wu Zetian, what does this minister want to do?
