In May, it was the time when Li Wei defeated Salem at the Wuhu River in Lingxi and attacked the city of Moufu. May is also the rainy season in the south of the Yangtze River.

But in the past two years, the Dragon King of the East China Sea knocked on the small pills, and he became more and more excited year by year, according to his duties, in May, he was going to the south of the Yangtze River to start work, but it was not finished, and he swung his tail and ran to the north to toss. I saw the small bridges and flowing water in the south of the Yangtze River, the pavilions and pavilions, and the soft appearance of a small jasper, I was embarrassed to toss, and it rained some continuous lewd drizzle. After arriving in the north, I saw the mountains and mountains, and the Ohara Rush River, but I came to the spirit.

The big man in the north, then my old man will have another heavy rain in the north.

The tail swept away, and he stood on the land of Henan and called for wind and rain. Last year's drought and flood were uneven, and the people of Guanzhong were tossed and miserable, and they probably felt uncomfortable. Guanzhong did not go to the scourge, but only specifically to scourge Henan.

So in Luoyang in May, a curtain was raised, and it became a piece of rain outside the curtain.

Li Zhi arrived at the Banwan Fanggui Palace in Luoyang, and was about to go to the Hebi Palace to avoid the office, but the heavy rain kept falling and stopped. The gloomy and damp weather also aggravated his illness.

At this time, all government affairs were handled by Wu Zetian alone. Wu Zetian handled it in an orderly manner, so some ministers were impressed. In any case, the Queen Mother is a very capable strong woman.

The royal car stopped at Fanggui Palace, and Wu Zetian could only work in Fanggui Palace. It was already dusk, and there were many tall trees around Fanggui Palace, although the weather was long, Fanggui Palace was darkened early.

Li Shoucheng walked in and said, "Queen Mother, eat." ”

"Well, don't worry, I'll go and see Your Majesty, and bring Your Majesty a piece of good news by the way."

Li Shoucheng was a little suspicious, last year's Guanzhong disaster, this year's Henan has been raining since April, causing the people to panic, what good news will there be?

Wu Zetian said happily: "The step is gone." ”

Buluoji is also called Jihu, Shanhu, has been active in the mountains of northern Shanxi Province. Two hundred and fifty years ago, Gao Huan wanted to rebel against Er Zhu Zhao, so he forged a letter, saying that Er Zhu Zhao ordered Gao Huan's six town soldiers to go out on the expedition. The whole army of the six towns cried, thinking that they would die, Gao Huan said, Zhenji Hu must die, and if the military period is delayed, what should we do. The Six Towns Army is all opposed. At that time, the Six Towns Army was so strong that it had not yet gone to war, but it thought that it would die, and the Huji people could see how powerful they were.

In the Tang Dynasty, Jihu gradually declined, and its power was still not to be underestimated. In Suizhou, there is a powerful Jihu tribe, one of whom is named Bai Tieyu, who buries the Buddha statue. When spring came, the grass grew it, and he said to the villagers, I see that there is Buddha light here. On the chosen day, the crowd dug up the ground and dug up this Buddha statue. Demagogic again, he said: "Those who see the light of the Buddha will be cured of all diseases." And he used other small means, and the believers benefited the people.

This year, he led the believers, according to Xinping County, to proclaim himself the Emperor of Light and set up a hundred officials. Then he attacked Suide and Dabin counties, killed officials, and burned people's houses. The crowd responded, and suddenly became a beacon fire.

In fact, he may have just cheated money, seeing that there are more believers, and he is ignorant and easy to deceive, and then he sees the northern Turks plotting rebellion, Pei Xingjian of the Tang Dynasty suppressed it twice, Lao Pei fell ill, and the court of the Tang Dynasty seemed to be helpless, and he became bold, so he rebelled.

The imperial court has done enough in the past two years, and when he heard that Buluo was plotting rebellion, Wu Zetian was furious and asked Zhang Qianqiao to raise troops from the state, and Cheng Wuting led troops from Luoyang to suppress it. The two brave generals went forward to deal with this group of rabble, which was simply a knife to slaughter chickens, and it was a little worthless. The rebellion was immediately suppressed, and Bai Tie was captured alive for the rest of his life.

But this news made Wu Zetian very happy.

After all, these two were her cronies, and they were asked to compete with Pei Xingjian to seize the military power in the north, but they were helpless against the Turks and were slandered by the people. This credit could not have come at a better time.

"That's great news." Li Shoucheng said.

After finishing speaking, the two opened the Huang Luo umbrella, and the two walked through the two corridors and came to the dormitory. Li Zhi fell asleep in bed. Wu Zetian beckoned, summoned the eunuch on duty, and asked in a low voice, "How is Your Majesty's condition today?" ”

"Empress Dowager Qi, the emperor shouted today that he had a splitting headache, and the slave maid let people rub it for a long time before the emperor fell asleep."

"Li Neishi, you go to spread the edict, hire good doctors from all over the world, if there is anyone who can cure His Majesty's condition, a reward of 10,000 gold, pay tribute to the county."

"No need," Li Zhi said suddenly.

"Your Majesty."

"Mei Niang, I know this illness in my heart, so it makes the world bustling, so it is better to recuperate with peace of mind."

"Your Majesty, you can't learn from Han Gaozu."

"Han Gaozu doesn't believe in medicine, but I am taking medicine, but in the world, how many doctors can beat the imperial doctor in the palace? If there is a doctor who can cure it, I would have come to the palace a long time ago and invited a fortune. I just want to discuss one thing with you, and I want to issue an edict to let Hong'er come back. ”

"Then issue an edict, and the concubine will immediately draft the edict."

Li Zhihu looked at her suspiciously, he couldn't see clearly, and he could only tell from the voice that his wife had some sincerity. Feng Yuanchang came to Wushang Zuocheng, and it happened that the eunuch and the palace maid went down to prepare the decoction, and when he saw that there was no one around, Feng Yuanchang said: "The authority of the middle palace is too heavy, and it should be suppressed a little." ”

A sentence woke up Li Zhi. Since Li Yiyan resigned, he promoted Liu Jingxian in order to balance. But not long after, Cui Zhiwen died of illness again. Almost none of the important ministers in the court are sons, although they are guarded against sons. After all, when it comes to the throne, anything can happen. It is not uncommon for sons to force Lao Tzu into the palace, not only the father. There are very few cases of sons killing Lao Tzu, but there are some. Yang Jian's death is just a suspicion. Liu Shao really led his troops to kill Lao Tzu Liu Yilong.

It is the most reassuring thing to grasp the power in your own hands. However, his health is not good, and all the important ministers of his son in the court have been ousted, which is not what he wants to see. Coupled with Feng Yuanchang's reminder, I couldn't help but have doubts. When his wife so decisively agreed to summon his son back, he thought he was cranky. Hesitantly, he said, "Let me think again." ”

"Your Majesty, according to the opinion of the concubine, let Hong'er come back. The land of Lingxi, far away from the Central Plains, is useless, but it will cost the army and money. In order to attack the Great Food, how many supplies were transferred during the year. If Hong'er wants to fight, it is better to let him fight the Turks. ”

"He is the future king, why do you think about war all day long? And not barbarians. Li Zhi muttered. But the wife was so resolute that she didn't talk about it anymore, after all, once the son came back, she and he were both embarrassed. That's why my son took the initiative to avoid it and went to the Western Regions.

Dare to feel that he thinks so.

"Your Majesty, when it's time for dinner, let the concubines serve you for dinner."

"Hmm."

The eunuch brought dinner, Wu Zetian fed Li Zhi with a small silver spoon one bite at a time, looked at her husband's emaciated face, and thought of the secret report of the imperial doctor, and suddenly burst into tears.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing."

"I heard you sobbing," Li Zhi said, stretching out his hand, groping, touching Wu Zetian's eyes and tears. After being stunned for a long time, she said, "Mei Niang, don't deal with government affairs today, talk to me." ”

Zetian obediently agreed.

The rain outside had subsided, and it was getting dark.

……

A group of widows are dancing strangely. Li Xian couldn't help asking, "What kind of dance is this?" ”

Shortly after the war between the Wa Kingdom and Silla, Kim Fa-min died. However, the Wa Kingdom underestimated the tenacity of Silla, and Silla was defeated and fought repeatedly, making the Wa Kingdom pay serious sacrifices for every inch of land occupied. Even from time to time, ships were sent to the Wa Kingdom to sneak attack, and the people were captured and sold to the Tang Dynasty.

The fiercer the war between the two countries became, the more slaves were sold. However, the Tang soon discovered that the slaves of these two countries were not very useful.

Unlike Tuyuhun, who is barbaric, but they have developed a habit of nomads, and the defeated often become slaves of the victors. According to the rules of the tribe, it is normal for him to become a slave of the Tang Dynasty. When he meets the good of the Lord's house, he is very faithful. In fact, these landlords also thought about their labor, and compared with the barbaric nomads of the steppe, the Han landlords also learned some Confucian knowledge to some extent, and were relatively much more benevolent. As long as they adapt to the soil and water, these Tuyuhun are the best parts.

The Japanese are not the same as the Silla people. The Silla people are shameless, and they are very stubborn, and they don't eat soft and hard. The Japanese like the strong, but this kind of liking the strong is that they insidiously want to touch the light of the strong, and they have never really surrendered to the strong. They are a strong and united nation in their bones. It seems that the Japanese people are very docile, unlike the Silla people, you want to fight or kill, whatever you want, but after a long time, they are more ruthless than the Silla people.

It was very uncomfortable to use, and the market price plummeted. At this time, an incident happened in Qizhou, a Silla tribe wanted to assassinate the master, but luckily escaped, but the landlord was also stabbed and seriously injured. In a fit of rage, he castrated all the Japanese and Silla people in his family. Are you not bloody, cut off your roots, and see if you are bloody? Not to mention, this trick works.

When the news got out, people thought it was funny at first, but some people started learning. It has finally become the trend. The officials didn't know what to say. According to the Tang law, it is illegal to do this, but people castrate the Japanese slaves and new slaves, not the people of their own country, and the law cannot control it. I don't know what to do, so I have to persuade these landlords not to go too far.

The landlords said to the soldiers who sold them, "Don't sell us a whole person, and if you do, you can only give you a price of five or six yuan." Or, if you castrate them yourself, I'll give you a dozen dollars instead.

The gap between the two was wide, and these Japanese and Silla soldiers began to castrate in Dengju. This is also strange, these two countries fought to the death, but after coming to Dengzhou, they were peaceful. It can only be said that the charm of money is too great, and it is here to sell people for money, not to go to war.

So on the seashore of the registration state, there was a constant howl of grabbing the sky and the earth all day long. When the Dengzhou officials heard this, they were frightened and ordered again, "Don't cut you in my territory, but cut you to the sea and slowly cut you in the boat." Do you want political achievements?

Compared to men, women are better. However, the people of the Tang Dynasty soon discovered that because of the difference in customs, the Japanese people did not respect the concept of chastity at all. As long as you are strong and dragged into that mess, you can hey casually. Although the Tang Dynasty didn't attach great importance to the concept of chastity, it couldn't come like this. But they have the advantage of being in a humble position in the country, and they are very good at serving men. It is not safe to be a wife and concubine at home, but it is very popular to be a prostitute in a green building.

So in the Tang Dynasty, it suddenly came like a night of spring, and thousands of courtyards and thousands of buildings were opened. are about to squeeze the orchid out of the market to sell spring.

Not long ago, the chamberlain who managed the deep palace transferred the palace maids who served Li Xian away, and transferred a group of widows. This is undoubtedly a serious insult. Because it is cheap and does not hurt the people, a small number of widows have been used in the palace, which are used for rough work, not to serve the master.

Li Xian also accepted it silently.

After listening to Li Xian's question, a widow replied, "Your Highness, it's called the Caged Bird Dance." ”

Very clever, not long after coming to the Tang Dynasty, he actually spoke fluent Tang Dynasty dialect.

"Caged Bird Dance?"

"Well, it's an expression of a bird in a cage yearning for the outside world."

"Daring, who made you do this dance?" Fang shouted angrily.

"Lady, let her be, I'm not as good as a bird in a cage. What is there to be angry about. ”

"Your Highness," Fang softened suddenly, and wanted to say why you didn't listen to me in the first place. But seeing her husband's depressed appearance, she didn't say anything.

"You keep jumping."

"Whoa."

After dancing the song, when it was time for dinner, the women dispersed. The widow girl who had just answered fell behind, and the distance between her and the women in front of her was getting bigger and bigger, and when she walked to the corner, she saw a eunuch coming over and whispered: "All the servants, His Royal Highness King Yong said that he is not as good as a bird in a cage." ”

"Okay, good," said the whole chamberlain, "Keep up the hard work, and make another contribution, and I will have someone send you back to reunite with your family." ”

"Thank you, all the chamberlains."

The two hurriedly finished speaking, left each other, and the whole chamberlain returned to the temple and began to write letters with a pen.

……

After dinner, Liu Renliang came to the room, sat down, and asked the housekeeper casually, "What is the price of wheat outside?" ”

The old housekeeper replied, "Ah Lang, a bucket of wheat fifteen wen." ”

"Okay, okay."

Last year's Guanzhong disaster, Liu Renliang was ordered to stay in Guanzhong as a guard and came to deal with the disaster. This is a kind of weight and appreciation, Xijing Chang'an is the first capital of the Tang Dynasty, and generally it is not the prince and the son, and it is not allowed to serve. In fact, it is to cut Liu Renliang's power, and not to give some honorary compensation, which seems to be difficult to explain.

Liu Renliang himself is also very happy.

The emperor went to the Western Regions, what did he do in Luoyang? Do you want to be photographed with a magnifying glass about yourself and your seventh aunt and eighth aunt? That person has no shortcomings, if it is magnified like this, in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, there is only one person who can't be found, Pei Yan!

He is not Li Yiyan, he has deep qualifications and high prestige, but if someone treats him like Li Yiyan, he will inevitably get a lot of sewage. There is no need for this. Besides, he attaches great importance to staying in Xijing. The party is not present, a false position. It comes in handy, and the role is not trivial. Once the emperor counterattacks, his position and the position of prime minister will have some influence on the Yulin army in Chang'an, and he can also mobilize the customs and materials around Chang'an.

Didn't move. When the time comes, you can't startle the snake.

The price of food is his job.

Last year, there was a great flood and drought, and there was a locust plague, and Guanzhong became as clean as water and laundry. It wasn't until after autumn that the weather returned to normal. Farmers rushed to plant winter wheat, and the weather was normal this year, but before the summer arrived, grain prices fell again and again. However, the guy who was black-toothed Changzhi saw that Guan Zhongxia had received it, and drove the people back together. Food prices have risen again. However, in general, the food in Qinghai and the more than 200,000 immigrants in the Western Regions have reduced the burden on Guanzhong. Grain from all localities continued to move to Guanzhong, and grain prices rose and then fell.

It's May, and in August, when the corn is ripe, grain prices will fall one step further. The crisis in Guanzhong was lifted.

Hearing that food prices had fallen, Liu Renliang was in a good mood and took out a copy of "Wei" from the shelf to look through. Seeing this paragraph of the Empress Dowager Feng, I suddenly compared the Empress Dowager Feng with the current Empress Dowager in my mind. The two are very similar, with excellent wisdom and tough wrists.

However, after comparison, in Liu Renliang's heart, the current Queen Mother obviously cannot reach the height of the Empress Dowager Feng, the first queen mother in the ages.

Born in Wu Zetian, the Empress Dowager Feng is the princess of the Northern Yan Kingdom. Neither can it be. is very disgusted with Wu Zetian and Liu Renliang, but I have to admit that Wu Zetian is also very capable, over the years, the Empress Dowager has been taking care of the government affairs and has not gone wrong. As a woman, it's not easy. But what about the Empress Dowager Feng?

Just one act, the current Queen Mother is far behind. Junda system!

This is a landmark system, nearly three hundred years later, this system is still reserved for the Sui and Tang dynasties as the basic national policy of the state. It is easy to say, but it is difficult to implement, Wang Mang's Jingtian system is similar to the Juntian system, and the result is that the heavens are angry and the people are resentful. First of all, the land occupied by large families is not easy to move. The second is the shade household, from the household statistics, there are few people in the Northern Wei Dynasty, but in fact, there are countless tenant farmers and tribes in the homes of the major wealthy families. Empress Dowager Feng first used the policy of moving to Kuanxiang to squeeze out the land space. The latter can't move, and the prince of the treasure knife is the reason for this, which makes the country angry, so that Liu Yu sees the opportunity to destroy the country. So she used the three-long system to attract shade households from large households.

Juntian system she set a precedent, and if it is not done well, it can lead to the destruction of the country. However, it actually allowed her to successfully implement it.

This reminded Liu Renliang of some of the emperor's reforms. Tithes were implemented among immigrants from Qinghai and the Western Regions. This is a very crude tax system, what is 1 out of 10? The harvest is not the same as the good and the bad, and the weather can also cause the harvest to be different, and if it is immigration, it will be a disaster if it is implemented throughout the country.

Liu Renliang could see that the emperor's intention was to lay some foundation for the transfer of taxes from people to acres. It was also done very carefully, using the government soldiers to serve as a cover. The government soldiers were exempted from tax service, and those who were high-ranking officials and nobles. However, once Qinghai and the Western Regions are gradually improved and become customized, they can be used as a model at that time.

It is indeed necessary to be careful, no matter who it is, even Emperor Taizong back then, he does not dare to offend the elite of the whole country.

What about the Queen Mother today? Twelve words were proposed. The twelve words are almost plagiarizing Taizong's "Emperor Fan", which has no new meaning, and is mostly empty words. In terms of practicality, more than 30 years have passed in "Di Fan", and they are all more practical than 12 words. That is to say, more than 30 years later, the times are different, and the one who taught his descendants how to be emperors said some of the current affairs of governing the country are better than twelve words.

From this point of view, the current Empress Dowager is not as good as the Empress Dowager Feng.

This is Liu Renliang's disgust with Wu Zetian's idea. In fact, the two of them have the same ability, in terms of courage, courage, and skill, Empress Dowager Feng is not as far away as Wu Zetian.

Continue to look through it to see how Empress Dowager Feng and Emperor Xianwen fought wits and methods. It just so happened that Emperor Xianwen of the Northern Wei Dynasty was very similar to the emperor, he was famous all over the world since he was a child, he was able to write and martial arts, and even the words behind him had a "Hong". But when I looked at it, my face became gloomy. He, he thought of the cause of death of another emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and said to the housekeeper: "You go and call Liu Erdan, send a letter to the Western Regions for me, and hand it to His Majesty the Emperor." ”

Liu Erdan is his family member and one of his cronies.

When he finished speaking, he picked up the pen and wrote on the paper: Death of the Buddha!
