Chapter 13: Asking Where the Flowers Are (1)

Chapter 13 is to ask uā where (1)

Liu Renliang left with a sad face.

Wu Zetian's oracle is also equivalent to an edict. Now Li Zhi, Wu Zetian and Li Wei all have the right to deal with major affairs. Therefore, Li Wei asked Pei Yan to draft a plan to treat Hu, but Pei Yan had to follow. But Wu Zetian asked Liu Renliang to draft a vague name system, and Liu Renliang also had to follow. And Wu Zetian is still reasonable.

Wu Zetian didn't want to touch this forbidden topic, not to mention Liu Renliang.

I had to go to the East Palace again to ask for help.

Li Wei sighed and said in a low voice: "I said that I really want to work with the queen mother. ”

He has his advantage, he is more than a thousand years of advanced knowledge, he may not remember a lot of knowledge, but about the advanced and backward, can still be judged. Some of the ideas were also ahead of their time in this era. But there are also shortcomings, wisdom and scheming details, not to mention mothers, even ordinary ministers may not be as good.

If he hired some virtuous ministers, the harem had a mother who was wise and superior to others, to fill in the gaps for him, and coupled with his advanced knowledge, a more powerful Tang Dynasty was likely to be realized in his own hands.

But I don't know what my mother thinks, but she refuses.

Liu Renliang is not a solid anti-martial faction, after listening to Li Wei's words, he shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, it is unlikely that you want to cooperate......

"I admire the wisdom of the queen mother."

The minister was even more worried.

"It's helpless, Liu Qing, let me ask you, is it okay for parents to beat their son?"

"Yes."

"Is it okay for a son to hit his parents?"

"No, but Your Majesty, this is the Imperial Palace." The next sentence is not very easy to say, and the situation of the general family cannot be moved to the palace. In the past, if Li Shimin had not had the Xuanwu coup, he would not have wanted to become a generation of great emperors, and if he continued to develop, he would have let Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji do most of his life. That's it, Li Shimin's henchmen were still not at ease, and Wei Chi Jingde immediately broke into the palace, and Li Yuan gave up the power of the military state. I'm afraid that something will happen.

"At that time, Pei Xingjian proposed two proposals to me, and I chose the latter one, which is to make the palace no longer have human tragedies in the future."

"Your Majesty, your intentions are good, things are not as developed as you think......"

"I know, but this time I ascended the throne, I have been a little unfilial, and I can't continue to be unfilial. Besides, there is already it," he patted the fold on the table. It's not that it's a twist, it means that the righteousness of the throne is already in your hands.

"What about Danchen?" In dealing with government affairs, Liu Renliang is not as good as Pei Yan's, and besides, this headache cannot be drafted.

"Since Pei Yan said that government affairs are the foundation of the country, then let's talk about the foundation of the country. What is the country at all, at least more than ninety percent of the people do not have to worry about food and clothing, and do not have good clothes to wear, but they must be able to dress warmly. There is no good food to enjoy, but at least you can eat enough. ”

"Yes, it's not very easy to achieve."

"I also know that, so in the past, I didn't hesitate to dispute and create some sources of revenue, precisely to reduce the people's taxes. This is not enough, so because of the drought, I thought of increasing grain production, and working with my father, queen and mother to promote three-dimensional breeding according to local conditions. But it's still not enough, and it's better to grab more arable land. ”

"Your Majesty means ......"

"There are several cultivated lands in our dynasty, one is the plain field, which is the main source of cultivated land for the country. From Guanzhong to Hebei, Hedong and Henan, most of them are cultivated like this. However, there is less water and more land, and the only way is for the state to allocate funds to build more water conservancy. ”

"It's good, but the treasury is in short supply, the Turks have changed, the country needs military spending, and the Danshui Canal has not been completed, and Your Majesty plans to redeem the trilogy, so much money...... It's hard. ”

"There's no hurry. Once the Danshui Canal was completed, the imperial court could save a lot of money every year. The Turks were also not difficult to deal with. But you have to plan now. ”

"Yes."

"There is also a major source of arable land, terraces. The investment in terraces is large, but the effect is small, and my opinion on this is neither encouraged nor opposed. "It's mainly people from the mountainous areas who make a living through this farming method, which is actually very damaging to the water and soil. But at this time, what can the people in the mountainous areas do without the help of terraced fields? Even in later generations, the terraces were not eradicated, let alone the Tang Dynasty.

"Then there are the cultivated fields on both sides of the river valley. There is another important cultivated land that we have not paid attention to in the past, and that is the polders. In the area of the Yangtze River, many places are suitable for encircling swamps as polders. ”

The polder that Li Wei talked about was very important to the Tang Dynasty. Dayu set Kyushu, the range of activities from Chang'an to Hebei, the farthest place in the south is Taihu Lake, but Yangzhou is set as the lowest state. It is unimaginable in later generations precisely because the rivers are dense, the rain is abundant, and the floods are flooded, and many places are swamps. There are many swamps, and the humidity is bound to be heavy. Neither from the survival, nor the possible environment, is unsuitable for human habitation. That's why Yangzhou was designated as the lowest state in Kyushu.

By the time of the Han Dynasty, at its peak, the population had reached more than 100 million, even slightly more than the population at the peak of the Song Dynasty. It is precisely because the environment of Jiangnan has not been transformed. Wu Zixu passed the Zhao Pass, in exchange for later generations, the surrounding mountains are not high, let alone dangerous, and I don't know that there are hundreds of roads to get to Wu State. But in that era, it was not possible, after crossing the Zhao Pass, there were only one or two roads, and the rest of the place was swampy, and there was no road to pass.

The Jin Dynasty's first move of power to the south gave Jiangnan a chance. In order to survive, I finally thought of the polder, built a polder around the swamp, built an embankment around the swamp as a field, and the climate, Jiangnan gradually improved. There were more polders in the Tang Dynasty, but they were still far from being as good as those of later generations.

This is a very common truth, and most farmers know it in later generations, but in this era, the idea is still a little ahead of its time.

Liu Renliang thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty is wise. ”

His character is a little cunning, and if he doesn't have a certain certainty, he is not a gentleman, but the kind of minister who is wise and wise. But it also depends on the king, like Wei Zheng didn't meet Li Shimin, Bao Zheng didn't meet Song Renzong, is it really a minister? Not necessarily

met Li Wei, and all kinds of ideas amazed him, which was the real reason for his death.

"I dare not say that I am young and not thoughtful, and I still need your help."

"The ministers should try their best to help and assist Your Majesty to create a prosperous Tang Dynasty." Liu Renliang suddenly bowed down and said.

"Liu Qing, no need," Li Wei helped Liu Renliang up, and said, "But the polder has many defects. First, the polder must be tall and strong, otherwise the flood will be big, once the embankment is missing, not only will there be no harvest, but the people in the middle of the polder will not be able to escape in time, which is another disaster. ”

"Yes."

"The second is the storage and discharge of water, which cannot block the channel of the river, and when the flood is huge, the water flow will be discharged to the Yangtze River and the sea in time. When building a polder, it is necessary to keep an accessible waterway. Water storage is also very important, that is, the Yangtze River, if the water is large, the river embankment may not be protected, and there must be enough lakes upstream to store most of the water flow. People are encouraged to build embankments, but there is a master plan. ”

The old tears of benevolence rolled down.

This is the emperor who does practical things, even a figure like Taizong may not be as far-reaching as the current emperor.

Shangguan Wan'er sat on the side and listened, she was also very moved, but she just tugged at Li Wei's robe sleeve, not knowing what to say.

"That's not what I mean."

"Your Majesty, I want to hear Your Majesty call me one day."

"Liu Qing, you are in love, just a title, filial piety is the head."

Ren Liang could only wipe his old tears with the sleeves of his robe.

"There are not many soldiers in Jiangnan, and if the country has not changed greatly, there will never be much war. With the abundance of Jiangnan, it was possible to maintain most of the supply of the imperial court. Reasonable planning is very important, and this is the real matter of benefiting the country and the people. ”

Ren Liang replied convincingly.

If this matter is carried out, there is no way to compare any martial arts with military affairs supervision. And it's a reciprocal thing, and there's very little controversy.

"There is another thing, before I ascended the throne, my father and mother issued an edict asking me to send an envoy to Henan Province. Whether it is to open a canal to build a water conservancy project, or to build a polder embankment in the south of the Yangtze River, we must take a look. Jiangnan is too far away, and I can't just go out to patrol Jiangnan. "Actually, Jiangnan, Li Wei really wants to take a look, but as a prince, it's not easy to inspect, let alone the emperor. continued: "But in Zhuzhou County, Henan Province, I really want to take a look, and I can't know if I don't see it. For the sake of my father's edict, I want to take a look. For the sake of the country, I also want to take a look. If you don't have a bottom in your heart, it's just talking on paper. But I'd like to take you on a patrol, what do you think? ”

"The ministers should obey their orders."

"After inspecting Henan Province, I will let you be the deposed ambassador of Jiangnan Province, and inspect the two Huaijiang Jiangnan Zhejiang (Qiantang River), Ganshui, Xiangshui, Yuanshui, and Zishui, what do you think?"

"The minister should be ordered," Liu Renliang was overjoyed. In this way, it is possible for him to accompany the emperor to inspect Henan Province, not the crown prince, but the emperor, and it is impossible for him to accompany him without a prime minister to accompany him on the tour of Henan Province. After the patrol was over, I inspected so many places again, at least half a year passed, and this time the Queen Mother gave her hard work and was able to escape. But he said worriedly: "Your Majesty, the court." ”

"Liu Qing, in this case, what can you ask me to do? It's better not to fight and take precautions for the time being. ”

"Yes. But if that's the case, can you bring Lee Sang-gong? "Liu Renliang is still very smart, the Queen Mother doesn't have a very bad impression of him, but she has a very bad impression of Hao Chujun and Li Yiyan. Either Pei Xingjian, Pei Xingjian will go to the Western Regions, and as soon as he leaves, Li Yiyan will inevitably become a thorn in the side of the Queen Mother. For the sake of the emperor, Li Yiyan has to find a way to preserve, not for Li Yiyan, but for His Majesty's wings in the court.

"That's okay, this matter is not trivial, and it is okay for the imperial court to send two prime ministers." Mother wants to protect Pei Yan, and she also wants to protect Liu Renliang. Once this plan can be implemented, coupled with Liu Renliang's previous military exploits, his reputation will be skyrocketing, and his own strength will be stronger. He added: "Tomorrow is my morning, and I will announce this matter immediately." When you get back, get ready to leave immediately. ”

Being able to preside over major politics has brought many benefits to Wu Zetian, and it has also brought many benefits to Li Wei.

Ren Rail left happily.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty," Wan'er cried out sweetly.

"Wan'er, what are you doing?"

"You are a bare person, but you still make Li Wei's nose hot.

"No, you little demons, do you want me to do my best......"

Wan'er covered Li Wei's mouth at once, and said, "Your Majesty, you are not allowed to speak, the concubine is just like what Your Majesty said, and she wants to grow old with Your Majesty." If His Majesty has a mistake, the concubines don't know what fun there is in this life. This dress was made by the concubine Yang and asked Sister Hui. The concubines are not for the sake of His Majesty, they just want His Majesty to be happy. ”

"I love it." Li Wei rubbed Mo Wan'er Jiāonèn's skin with his hand, a little impulsive, the most rare tactful is so small, he is very sensible. It's just that there are still many eunuchs and palace maids standing in the distance, ready to serve, forcibly holding back.

Wan'er said again: "Your Majesty, you are so smart, you didn't expect the Queen Mother to resolve it so easily." ”

Li Wei smiled bitterly and said, "In terms of thoughts, I am not as far away as the queen mother." ”

sighed again, the smarter his mother was, the more Li Wei wanted to reconcile. He doesn't have high requirements, and he doesn't want to be a single husband, as long as his mother is not ambitious, what if he gives up some of his rights? But how can I say it myself, so that my mother will believe it?
