Chapter 164: Detective (2)

This problem should not be underestimated, otherwise it should not be more, and after one or two hundred years, the clan will become a new big bloodsucker for the Tang Dynasty.

I went all the way, I thought all the way, and I didn't come up with any good solutions. Is it possible to let all the children of the clan be civilians? In fact, there is a sub-feudal system, such as the prince of the first generation, and the heir of the second generation, the prince of the county, the prince, the prince, the uncle, the male, the son, and the commoner. For example, Liu Bei and Uncle Liu Huang of the Han Dynasty were just a commoner. is also equivalent to a civilian.

Not that far.

No matter how it is divided, generation after generation, more newcomers will emerge, and the longer this bloodsucker will be in the Li Tang dynasty, the more harmful it will be.

I couldn't help scratching my head, grandma's, this emperor is doing too hard. I am still a learned person in later generations, but in many places, I can't think of a good strategy.

arrived at the gate of Wu Zetian's palace, but Wu Zetian was not seen.

There was no bubbling along the way.

Although he was prepared, Wu Zetian was very disappointed in the face of this result.

Li Wei said to the eunuch again: "You have always said that the sons and grandsons of the queen mother are all here, and the family is reunited, which is also a human joy, so let's meet each other." ”

"Hmm." This eunuch was a little blind, Li Wei didn't know him, but he always answered cautiously. He was also afraid of the affairs of the Eastern Capital.

I went back to Tongyu, but I still didn't see it.

Li Lingyue asked with some sadness: "Big brother, the queen mother, ...... she?" ”

"Little sister, don't say anything." Li Wei didn't explain, if he wanted his mother to be happy, it was very simple, as soon as he handed over the jade seal in his hand to the military power, his mother would be happy immediately. It can't be solved right now. After a few years, it will be seen if the mother's temperament can settle down. Otherwise, it is impossible to have a happy family reunion.

Went back.

Wei Yuanzhong walked in and said, "Your Majesty, there is a memo written by the people of Chuzhou here, and the minister thinks that His Majesty wants to take a look."

"A common man's twists and turns actually alarmed the prime minister?" Li Wei smiled, opened the fold, and immediately turned pale with a pale. There are not many things written in the fold, because the culture is shallow, and the writing is very white. But it directly refers to the current politics, and it is the water conservancy policy that he has mobilized the people.

When it comes to benevolence and love for the people, there is no one more than Your Majesty since ancient times. Two canals are opened, and thousands of people are born. It also revitalizes the national water conservancy, in order to open up mountains and dig the sea to reclaim lakes, and Guangxing Pitang weir and Zhuwei embankment, so that the people can have land to cultivate and hemp to weave. However, before the government decree was issued, various localities invaded the lake and marsh law, encircled it for themselves, and plugged the embankment for personal gain. There are many rich people in the south of the Yangtze River who have turned the deep lake into a circle, and the subjects have heard about the land of Hebei and Henan, and there are also rich people who have encroached on water conservancy. This year, when I heard of His Majesty's return, this wind is blazing. Ministers are also worried. The land in the south of the Yangtze River is rainy, the lake is flat and the water is not irrigated, and the rain and water cannot be irrigated. The land of Henan and Hebei has little rain, and Haoshen encroaches on the water berth, and it is difficult for the people to irrigate. At the beginning of the project, every weir is not a state and county can spend a huge amount of money for the country, and only a few people have benefited from it.

This passage is very simple, if it weren't for Li Wei's several talks about water conservancy, there may be many ministers who don't understand.

Pi, that is, the mountain field, or the river field and the river field on the side of the mountain, some of the scale of the field is very small, and some of the scale of the field is very large, this history is earlier than the history of the polder, and there are fields in the spring and autumn.

Pond refers to the embankment built on the seaside, and the pond fields that appear are mainly concentrated in northern Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Fujian.

Weir refers to large reservoirs and related water conservancy projects, bringing irrigated farmland, which is more widely distributed, from Henan Hebei to Guanzhong to Jiannan, as long as there is ability, can bring a large number of weir fields. The most famous is Dujiangyan.

Nagisa is a small island in the middle of the river, and some small islands have also begun to cultivate a large number of cultivated fields.

The polder is mainly concentrated in the sub-coastal area of the Yangtze River, from Runzhou to the west to the east of Anqing, Anhui and Jiangsu, Huaihe River and Jiangxi, Hubei, Hunan and other places, there are also a large number of lakeside and riverside areas, which can be cultivated out as polders. For the latter, Li Wei attaches the most importance to it, one is the late development, even if the Tang Dynasty is developing, it is still a primitive area, and there is a lot of room for development. Second, the yield is high, all are fertile soil, there are sufficient water sources, and the climate is suitable, he is preparing to go to Chang'an, from the Champa to introduce Champa rice, carry out breeding, improve the rice and seeds in the south of the Yangtze River. The yield of rice is always higher than that of wheat sorghum.

I still remember two poems, one was written by Yang Wanli, the polder continues to be in autumn year after year, the polder family does not know the sorrow, the road hangs for a thousand miles, and the merry country is Taipingzhou. He was not a sycophant, and he also wrote many poems about the hard work of the people. From this side perspective, it can reflect the benefit of the polders of the Song Dynasty to the people. And Fan Zhongyan and He Zhu have written similar words, He Zhu clearly wrote the output in a poem, one stream of spring water is a hundred benefits, and two acres of summer seedlings are harvested. The output of the Song Dynasty was slightly higher than that of the Tang Dynasty, and under the guidance of Li Wei to "seduc", the Tang Dynasty only barely reached three stones per acre, and if the enlarged acres of land were deducted, it was still insufficient. The Song Dynasty was slightly more than a little. But the polder reached five stones per acre. In the face of such a big return, Li Wei didn't know, knowing that he still had the highest power of the empire in his hands, how could he not be moved?

If all of them are developed, there will always be 100,000 square kilometers, that is, 1.5 million hectares of land. How many million hectares of arable land could there be in the Tang Dynasty? It is not necessary to cultivate all of it, but only half of it, and it is possible to reach nearly one million hectares of land, which is still a first-class fertile land. Look at Qinghai squeezing around, but only tens of thousands of hectares of land have been squeezed out. These new lands are only intended to collect 300 stone of grain per hectare, and it is possible to feed everyone in the current Tang Dynasty. After talking to Di Renjie at that time, Di Renjie's eyes flashed green.

The account cannot be like this, and at that time, if the population is violently vigilant and doubles, this advantage will be lost again. But what if there is no food? When the time comes, the people will take food as their sky, and they will have nothing to eat, and there will be so many people, what kind of situation will it be?

So one by one, they are grinding their fists and preparing to make a big move.

But this letter is undoubtedly a slap in the face.

If it is true as it is written, then the problem is great.

The biggest key to water conservancy is water production and storage.

No matter how it is circled, it is necessary to maintain the existence of a large number of reservoirs and lakes, and when the water potential is huge, it can store water and reduce waterlogging. Why is it that before the Song Dynasty, there are few records of waterlogging in the south of the Yangtze River in the history books, just think about it, how can a large number of swampy lakes have waterlogging production? In times of drought, it can also play a role as an irrigation supplement. In the long run, it can also be very protective of the environment.

Therefore, Li Weili said that the survey cannot be circled casually.

The second is the water. Once the water conservancy is overhauled, the ocean becomes flat, and no matter how much it remains, a large number of it will definitely not exist. The water is ...... Then the flow of water in the river will increase, and even the water level can be lifted a few meters or more than a dozen meters higher than that of the polder, such as the later breaking of the polder. In this case, not only should a large number of water storage lakes be retained, but also enough rivers should be retained, and even the flood water in the rivers can be quickly discharged to the Yangtze River.

But if it is like the one by one that says in the fold, 'one by one stretches out their hands', then the lake is silted, the river is blocked, there is no space for water storage, and there is no channel for drainage. As long as the rain is heavy and the flood season is long, something big will happen. It's better in the north...... But the mighty stretched out their hands...... It will also inevitably have a significant impact, and it will have a greater impact on irrigation.

He folded it together, looked at the name and said, "Wei Qing, draft two scripts for me." ”

"Hmm."

"Chuzhou Minsi Wan Qing Dagger is meritorious...... Moved to the Ministry of Shangshu and the Ministry of Water Affairs, in order to sparse the world. He also ordered the officials and people who were good at agricultural production and water conservancy to go to the county or the imperial court to write their own opinions. If there is a right time...... Whoever buys it, goes to reward...... Those who have made great contributions will be given official positions. ”

Wei Yuanzhong was a little surprised.

But with relief, I began to write. The promotion of Si Wanqing was too fast, and it may be the fastest promotion in the history of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and a common man suddenly became an official from the sixth grade. I don't know if I can adapt after entering the court.

However, it can be considered that if there is no negligence of this person, the officials below are also afraid of the foreign powers, and will not report it. Once the construction starts, the actual situation is divided among the various powers, then the final situation will become a strong confrontation between the emperor and all the powers, the wealthy and the landlords. This result is what Emperor Taizong does not want to see. At this time, there are not many people who join, and they can be stopped in time. This promotion is also less heavy.

"Again, from now on, all Pitang weirs and Zhuwei embankments must be investigated in detail by officials in various places, drawn up maps, explained the specific strategies and methods of construction, and reported to the higher authorities for verification. Therefore, Xintian, which was distributed by the imperial court, was returned to the people. Anyone who builds fences, ridges, embankments, and dams without permission after the construction of water conservancy in the year of the adjustment and dew of the year, regardless of the Wangmen clan and the powerful clan, will be nationalized. It is verified by the household department and distributed to poor land and tenant households, so as to equalize the wealth and poverty of the world. ”

Wei Yuanzhong wiped his sweat, rich and poor?

However, the wind of annexation is too strong, although the Zheng family has taken a good start, there are still a large number of landlords and wangmen who continue to annex, and in the long run, there is no benefit to the Qi country. Even if it is to occupy some of the Americas tens of thousands of miles overseas, and if it continues to be annexed like this, it will be swallowed up in hundreds of years.

Li Wei continued: "Anyone who stands in the way will be punished, and the land and property will be confiscated at the least, and exiled at the worst. Local officials who shield them shall be removed from all official positions and shall not be hired for life. ”

Li Wei was really angry. You really think I am a god and a horse, a good old man, easy to bully.

He also said: "Since the third year of Xianheng, since I advocated multi-party cultivation and breeding with the first emperor in order to benefit the people, those who encroach on abandoned swamps will not be investigated, but those who encroach on rivers, canals, waterways and lakes, affecting irrigation, will all be returned to farmland and returned to water. In addition, no matter who it is, it is not allowed to encroach on rivers and lakes without permission for their own use, and those who do not order them will be severely punished. In addition, the rise of bamboo paper, there are many workshops encroaching on rivers and streams, seeking their own strength, harming water conservancy, since the book, all returned. If there is a shortage of water, open a pond on the wasteland after being verified by the local officials, and bow the water moderately, otherwise all the assets of the fangfang will be confiscated. In addition, in the land of Guanzhong Henan, and even in the whole country, there are many large households, occupying water and setting up mills, and grinding grain and millet flour for their own benefit. Officials in various localities shall verify the amount of irrigation water used and confirm the amount of mills set up on the date of the letter. Violators will be severely punished! If the above officials are unfair, the local people can go to the court to seek justice. ”

Li Wei thought about it later. It turned out that after the representatives of the major households arrived in Chang'an, everyone sat down and calmly negotiated a solution.

However, Si Wanqing's negligence made him angry.

Water conservancy can be said to be the foundation of the country. Even in the future generations, it is also very important, and now this fragile mode of production.

But Wei Yuanzhong was very sober-minded, he didn't write down, but said: "Your Majesty, listen to the minister." After reading Si Wanqing's recital, he felt that the matter was very serious, and in fact, it might be more serious than Si Wanqing's writing. ”

"Well, he's just a commoner, and it's taboo to write."

Even if he didn't dare to write it, but with his words alone, it might be difficult to convince the world. In the opinion of the minister, it is better to let the minister send some reliable officials as envoys to inspect the various provinces, and then return to Beijing as soon as possible to report the truth to His Majesty. In this way, it will be more reasonable and well-founded to issue a letter to the world. ”

Li Wei pondered for a moment and said, "Okay." But let's give the first one. In addition, send messengers, not to let the magistrates know, and to use other excuses. so as not to be misled by the magistrates. ”

"Hmm."

After Wei Yuan's 'Zhong left', Li Wei's anger gradually resolved.

I was angry, but think about it, no matter what the generation, that country doesn't have a lot of troubles that can't be solved.

He is the head of the landlord class, but he leads the poor class and fights against the landlord class.

ps: About water conservancy, if you understand, it is very wonderful to write. However, the protagonist is not suitable for the emperor, but for the local officials. It is possible that the details of water conservancy will be written in the next book, and it is more reasonable to write in the Song Dynasty. I saw a story in the rowing, the Changle girl Qian Siniang went to the general beach to build a tower, the stream was overflowing, the river was bad, Qian Siniang was angry and threw herself into the water to die and was a martyr. This book is simple and rugged. But as long as Li Wei really did these things well, he would not develop navigation, and a more perfect Tang Dynasty would inevitably appear.

Let's talk about another interesting thing, a county official received a report from Xiaomin, my vegetable garden was picked up by so-and-so, and I went to claim it and didn't give it, so I asked the county lord to call the shots. This county order is confused, this is not something else, how to pick up the vegetable garden? This is the sage field, the grass roots such as the rotten water chestnut reed below, the wooden raft floating mud on the top, and the rice, and even the vegetables. But be careful, you have to tie it tightly with a rope, otherwise you will float to a certain place overnight. This also illustrates the wisdom of the ancients. (To be continued)
