What Di Renjie said is also the reason.

Since Li Zhi came to Luoyang, he has not gone back for a long time. But in the hearts of civil and military officials, Chang'an is the first capital and the real land of Longxing. In terms of topography, it is also related to the danger of the river, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if Wu Zetian changed Luoyang to Tiandu, he couldn't deny this fact.

But at this time, Di Renjie put forward this advice, which has a long-term significance. Not only has I been away from Chang'an for a long time, but it is time to go back. The Empress Dowager Luoyang has been in business for a long time, and she has allocated a lot of money from the treasury to appease the people. Even the soldiers who guarded the palace were themselves from Luoyang.

The Empress Dowager Chang'an also won the hearts of the people, but the degree of envelopment was not enough. It is also Li Tang's base, and many relatives, Guan Long's wealthy families, all surround Chang'an. For example, the emperor's relatives, the Wei family is in Wannian County, Chang'an. Once returned to Chang'an, the Yulin Army can be replaced, even including a large number of chamberlains and palace maids, and the power of the emperor and the queen mother will rise again.

Therefore, for the first time, Di Renjie put forward this advice.

"Zhun Song, the first emperor died, and I, as a courtier, did not go to worship, which is also my fault. It just so happened that I led all Aiqing to worship the first emperor and then returned to Xijing. ”

"Your Majesty is wise."

Di Renjie just retreated, and stood up alone, Song Jing.

Holding the tooth wat and said: "The minister also has a play, it is the middle of July at this time, the weather is hot, once His Majesty returns to Xijing, up to the civil and military ministers, the concubines of the inner palace, down to the Yulin army soldiers, scholars' families, envoys from various countries, and the palace attendants, up to tens of thousands of people. It's not easy to travel all the way. The minister thought that whether to postpone the half moon, August is coming, the sky is high and refreshing, and the season is the most appropriate, which can also reflect His Majesty's purpose of benevolence and love for the people. ”

After that, everyone was silent.

If the emperor is able to leave Luoyang immediately, he can leave immediately. See the East Palace? Fully armed, you little Song Jing, I don't know that the emperor turned you out of that mess, if you don't have the emperor's appreciation, do you want to do it? I may not be able to sit in this position in my life and raise objections.

A few ministers looked at Li Wei gloatingly, and then looked at the stunned young man in front of them.

However, more people watched Li Wei's reaction.

But Li Wei's expression made everyone even more strange.

Li Wei smiled, waved his hand, and said, "You come here." ”

"Whoa." Walked up to Li Wei.

"I like your loyalty. In the past, Wei Zheng said to His Majesty Taizong that the lord of the people is straight and the ministers are straight, and the lords of the people are faint and the ministers. Therefore, Emperor Pei Ju flattered him, but he was loyal and straightforward. In the later years of the first emperor, his body did not heal, and it was difficult for the ministers to enter the advice, so that Li Yushi gave advice, and the people of the world called Fengming Chaoyang. Come on, give Li Yushi 200 horses and Song Qingbo 300 horses to reward the world's loyalty. Song Qing, I listened to your advice. ”

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... The minister ...... "At this time, Xiao Song Jing has qualifications and talents, but he has not yet reached the height of later, and under the excitement, his eyes are rolling in his eyes.

However, Ximen Chong, who had just come to Luoyang, almost wanted to jump up and pinch Xiao Song's neck. It makes sense, but at this time, His Majesty leaves Luoyang one day earlier, which is more beneficial to His Majesty. A little difficulty in car travel, compared with the national plan, what is it?

His Majesty actually agreed to reward loyalty.

His ideas are very extreme, and Li Wei's intention to do so is of great significance. It not only gave this capable minister the confidence and courage to keep going. It also provides a good example for the current chaos to be set right.

Sometimes, killing pokes alone won't solve the problem. It is also not in line with Li Wei's style, the word kill poke can give full play to it in Wu Zetian's hands, but it may not be of much use in Li Wei's hands.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you have something to do? If there is nothing to do, I will say one thing. In the past, I asked Liu Guogong, Li Guogong and Wei Hongji to inspect various roads in order to build water conservancy and open up fertile land. I also have the dossier obtained after the inspection of the three kings. Thanks to the efforts of the three secretaries, we have also absorbed the suggestions of people from all walks of life and put forward many valuable opinions. For example, in the big lake in the south of the Yangtze River, there is a cocoon, for a long time, the root rises to the surface, several feet thick, the wide one can reach several hundred zhang, the small one can reach dozens of zhang, the people have planted on it, the crops can grow, the local people call it the field. But Li Guogong had another idea, if he organized manpower, made wooden rows on it, and then spread mud, the harvest would be even greater. There are many lakes and swamps in the south of the Yangtze River, and this move alone can obtain countless fertile land for the country. ”

In this regard, many people do not understand, and even most people have never been to Jiangnan, only know that Jiangnan has a lot of water, hot and humid weather, and low-lying terrain.

Li Wei is also not very clear, but it reminds him of one thing, as if the American continent has invented a kind of floating field on the lake now, or in the future, which is very similar to this. So it is approximately feasible.

Do you want to go to Jiangnan in person, but this idea flashed by. After coming to the Tang Dynasty, he went to many regions, such as Jiannan Nanzhao, such as Lingxi in the Western Regions of Qinghai, and even went to the foot of Yin Mountain and walked around, but he didn't go to Jiangnan Liangzhun before.

I can't go now.

It's a little regrettable, if you want to be a good emperor, it's very difficult, and you may not be so happy. He also said: "The second is Shatian, between the Jianghuai River, and on the riverside and seaside, there are many impermanent sand silt land, the river water is agitated in the east, the sand land rises in the west, the river water is agitated in the west, and the sand land rises in the east. As long as you grasp its laws and cultivate in time, the geology is fertile and you can keep the abundance. In this regard, it can also be publicized and encouraged to the people. and exempt from income tax. Ladies and gentlemen, collecting taxes is to govern the country, not to collect taxes for the sake of taxes, and ultimately to return them to the people as the essence. ”

Li Wei didn't expect it at that time. Sha Tin is fertile, but also bears some risks, the river water changes, will play all. If it is developed, a lot of cultivated land can be created, but the proportion of the total will be very small. Therefore, for this kind of land, Li Wei directly exempted from taxation and benefited the people.

"Your Majesty is benevolent." Qian's taste is here again, and he immediately echoes it.

"I am not benevolent, I have gone on several expeditions and died under my command, as many as hundreds of thousands of people, and even millions of people have been victimized by me."

The horse's ass didn't work, and it was slapped on the horse's hooves. Qian's taste is embarrassing.

He also said: "From now on, Hugh said that I am benevolent, and everyone works together to do practical things to make our dynasty stronger, which is what I value." Let's talk about water conservancy. Liu Liukui, a citizen of Mengzhou, once made a suggestion to Wei Hongji. There are many saline-alkali lands along the Yellow River, which are low in yield or barren. However, if the water breaking method is used to flush the river water and the silt settles, the soil quality will be improved and the yield will be increased. It's also a good idea. Then there are the terraced fields, which Fujian and Zhejiang like to call the mountain fields, which are supplemented by the number of cultivated fields by the people in the mountainous areas. ”

In the latter one, Li Wei passed by. The terraces are good, but they are very damaging to the environment, and they are no less harmful than the nomadic herders in the north.

He added: "Then there are the polders, which are enclosed by embankments in low-lying and swampy places, and canals are built in the middle, and steep gates are set up outside. Close the sluice gate to make water when it is flooded, open the sluice gate to release water when it is dry, and ensure harvest in drought and flood. There are countless fertile fields. ”

This one will be the big project and the most expensive one. But if it is done well, it will add countless fertile fields. And the polders have only been around for a short time, and their development has been slow. Yes, the area is small. For example, in Zhaoguan, Wu Zixu was trapped in the swamp south of Zhaoguan more than a thousand years ago, so he had to go to Zhaoguan and turned his hair white. When it came to the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Wei Rui marched north, and he had to pass through Zhaoguan. However, later, Wuwei Daxu and Hexian Daxu appeared, and if you want to go, you don't know how many roads you can choose from. This is the road, and the two Daxu are almost close to thousands of square kilometers, and the Tang Dynasty developed less than four out of ten. For example, when Wei Rui was in the spring of his expedition, he was also trapped in a swampy water town, but later it was a plain area.

If all these polders were developed, it would be a great event, and their merits would be comparable to those of Yangguang's Grand Canal.

Wei Xuantong stood up and said: "Your Majesty, overhauling water conservancy will benefit the country and the people, not only can you control water, but you can also get a lot of fertile land, but the country's financial resources are not enough." ”

Li Wei looked at him deeply.

The path of a mother's rights is, first, to control her rights by handling government affairs for her father. The second is to strengthen the control of the ministers through Pei Yan and the Beimen Bachelor. Zhuwu, Li Wei never thought that they had any talent. There is only one Wu Sansi, the yin and yang weird, who can look out of his eyes slightly, and the others are almost useless.

But controlling Pei Yan remotely does not mean that the court can be controlled, but it is the support of the ministers for Pei Yan that enables Wu Zetian to grasp the political situation step by step through Pei Yan's hands. Among them, several important ministers, Guo Zhengyi, Guo Beiju, Wei Xuantong, Cen Changqian and Liu Jingxian, played an indelible role in the middle.

Others didn't care, but Wei Xuantong was equivalent to the minister he had promoted, and Li Wei was very disappointed in his heart.

It can only be said that there is a vacancy in the court, so he will be transferred back, otherwise Li Wei may treat this person coldly.

Putting aside the distractions, he said, "I know. At that time, Liu Guogong and I only hurriedly inspected it, and many details were not agreed, and it would take years for this alone. We should take precautions and formulate guidelines for a rainy day, and then we will start one by one when the national treasury is sufficient. Or start small and see the results. ”

"Whoa."

"Disperse the court, the young eunuch of Ximen, and the officials of the household department, come with me to the political hall."

The ministers retreated.

Li Wei came to the political hall.

The prime ministers and the officials of the household department all sat down.

When everything arrived, Li Wei looked at Ximen Chong and said: "Ximen Chong, when the first emperor Taishan sealed the Zen, Liu Yizhi's admonition to Yicang was seriously lost, and you re-admonished the fire consumption, these two things, I also heard about them in the Western Regions later." At that time, I was not in the country, but I came back, you can talk about it. ”

The officials were all stunned and looked at several prime ministers.

The prime minister also changed some people, the prime minister of Wu Zetian, and there were still Pei Judao, Wei Zhiwei, Qian Wei and Wang Dezhen, these people, no one cared. Especially Wang Dezhen and Wei are waiting for the price, it is a matter of time before they degrade out of the phase, and I am afraid that the taste of Qian is inevitable. Pei Judao is a national abbot, but his talent is very limited. It's looking at a few new prime ministers. Di Renjie, Wei Yuanzhong, Zhu Jingze, Wei Xuantong and Wei Zhigu.

In fact, in Li Wei's heart, it is enough to have these five people as prime ministers. In a few years, when Yao and Song grow up, they will be appointed as the new prime ministers, and a better peaceful and prosperous era will come.

But these new prime ministers obviously did not prepare in advance, and they looked very stunned.

Ximen Chong said in a snort: "Your Majesty, the minister was young and ignorant and ignorant, so he said nonsense. ”

It was precisely because of his own admonition that he opened the prelude to the great debasement of the imperial party, why did His Majesty turn this matter over again.
