Yanshi has eight scenes, and the first sunny dawn is the first. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Mi stood on the top of the mountain, looking out to the east. I saw that the glow was like a slight, colorful and gorgeous. A round of red said, spraying out. He stood with his hands in his hands, letting the mountain breeze blow his robe and tremble, like a tall pine, standing tall on the top of the mountain. Behind him, Wang Bodang and Cai Jiande stood silently, standing motionless on the top of the mountain with Li Mi until the red sky sprinkled the bright sunshine all over the earth.

"Let's go back!"

Li Mi turned around, and after saying a word to Wang Bodang and Cai Jiande, he walked silently on the mountain road.

Last night, Li Mi suddenly became interested, saying that since he had arrived at Yanshi, if he didn't take a look at Shouyang Qingxiao, wouldn't it be in vain? So he called Wang Bodang and Cai Jiande to accompany him overnight, and climbed Shouyang Mountain to see it together. But in reality? Wang Bodang and Cai Jiande knew very well that Li Mi was not so much looking at the east, but rather looking at Xingyang in the distance.

As the war between King Li and King Li eased, Yanshi also ushered in a rare time of peace.

It's just that this city has almost been emptied by Li Yanqing, so that although Li Mi occupied Yanshi County, he didn't feel the slightest bit happy.

He couldn't recruit troops on the spot, which would only make the few remaining Yanshi people leave Yanshi.

So he had to keep mobilizing troops from his territory. A thousand-year-old city has now become like a military town. Looking at it, except for the soldiers or soldiers, there is no vitality in sight. Li Mi even doubted whether it was right or wrong for him to take over this ancient city from Li Yanqing? From the current point of view, he is indeed close to the Eastern Capital, but it does not seem to help his ambitions.

After Yang Guang was killed, the rebels all over the world were seeking a moral high ground.

Li Yuan coerced the Son of Heaven in Chang'an to order the princes, Wang Shichong coerced the Son of Heaven in Luoyang to order the princes, and Yu Wenhua was in Jiangdu to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes.

And in Danyang County, there is Emperor Yang Guo, who was supported by Empress Dowager Xiao.

For a time, there were four emperors in the world, which also made people from all walks of life choose from a lot more objects.

Don't you see, unruly and unruly like Du Fuwei, and also surrendered Danyang County?

Indeed, these emperors are nothing great, and they have no great ability. can take refuge in these four people, but they can get an excellent reputation.

Yu Wenhua dared to kill the king, but he did not dare to usurp the throne.

If there is no moral high ground, I am afraid that I will be nailed to the pillar of shame in the future.

Although Li Mi was far away in Yanshi, he could feel the impulse in the hearts of the hundreds of county officials under his command. Is it really necessary to leave a name for posterity with the reputation of a thief? Li Mi was hesitating, confused, and at a loss...... He didn't even know whether all the efforts he had made before were good or bad. However, from the current point of view, the pressure on Wang Shichong and Li Yuan has made him a little breathless.

If......

If it weren't for that damn Li Yanqing, maybe now that I had set foot in the Eastern Capital, why would I be in a dilemma like now?

Thinking of this, Li Mi couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

In the distance, horses' hooves sounded.

A team of cavalry came to Li Mi at a gallop.

"Your Majesty!"

"Li Junxian, what are you doing?"

The leader is a newly recruited general under Li Mi.

This person's name is Li Junxian, a native of Wu'an. After the Battle of Heishi Pass, Hao Xiaode was defeated and retreated to Hanoi, and Li Jun envied his fame. However, when he arrived under Hao Xiaode's account, Li Junxian knew that this guy had turned out of Wagang. But since he has taken refuge, it is not easy to change it. So he acted as a cavalry general under Hao Xiaode's account...... Hao Xiaode wanted to return to Wagang, and he didn't want to be defeated by Xu Shiji in one fell swoop at Niuzhukou. Li Junxian accompanied Hao Xiaode and retreated all the way to Baima. Hao Xiaode was desperate and wanted to cross the river and escape. But Li Junxian was unwilling to follow Hao Xiaode to continue to escape, so he took the opportunity to separate from Hao Xiaode in Baima. Xu Shiji followed Hao Xiaode and crossed the river to kill Jijun. And Li Junxian took more than 100 horsemen and defected to Li Mi's account, and was valued by Li Mi as a confidant general.

In the Sui period, there was no shortage of horses in the middle of the year.

Especially after Yang Guang defeated Tuyuhun and set up the four counties of the Western Regions, he obtained a large number of horses.

However, the three battles against Goguryeo greatly damaged the national strength, which also caused a large shortage of horses. After that, bandits in various places were endless, and the war continued, and the war horses became less and less. Nowadays, the most important of the rebel armies are Xue Ju of Jincheng County and Li Liang of Wuwei County. Even Li Yuan, when he started his army from Taiyuan, he only commanded thousands of cavalry. As for the Central Plains, it is even more scarce.

Li Yanqing now has 30,000 soldiers and horses, but the cavalry is less than 3,000.

Wang Shichong had hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and the cavalry was less than 8,000. Li Mi was even more miserable, at first it was better, but later, it became extremely rare. It was Dou Jiande who managed to buy four or five thousand war horses for him from outside the Saiwai, barely enough to make up the number of 10,000 horses. Therefore, Li Junxian defected with more than 100 horsemen, no less than a team of 1,000 people. Li Mi is naturally very happy, and he treats Li Junxian differently from others.

Li Junxian dismounted and said, "My lord, Chief Lu is patrolling outside the city today and caught a suspicious person at the checkpoint.

Mr. Lu said that this person seemed to be a yin person, and a letter was found from him...... Chief Lu is destined to come immediately and pass through the king. ”

Yin people, that is, synonymous with eunuchs and eunuchs.

As soon as Li Mi heard this, he immediately understood the meaning of Lu Ruzong's words.

This eunuch came from Luoyang, the eastern capital......

"Return to the city with Lone immediately."

Li Mi didn't say a word, and whipped his horse.

Li Junxian, Wang Bodang, and Cai Jiande did not dare to slack off, and followed closely behind Li Mi and galloped away.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the mansion, Li Mi flew and jumped off the war horse.

Lu Ruzong hurriedly ran out, and after saluting Li Mi, he said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this Yin man was sent by Wang Huzi to Xingyang to meet Li Yanqing. But I found two letters from him...... The king would never have imagined that one of them was actually written by the emperor. ”

"Huh?"

Li Mi couldn't help but be taken aback.

Huangtai Lord is a kind of name for Yang Tong, the king of Yue.

Because the world is too chaotic, the four emperors stand side by side, and it is difficult to distinguish them. The surname Suo is called by their respective year names, for example, the year name of Yang Tong, the king of Yue, is Huangtai, so he is called the Huangtai Lord; The era name of Yang Yu, the king of Chang'an, was Yining, so he was called Emperor Yining...... Etcetera.

Although Yang Tong is in the hands of Wang Shichong, Li Mi is no stranger to the situation in Luoyang.

Yang Tong is just a puppet, locked up in Ziwei Temple by Wang Shichong, and it is difficult to even meet his old mother, the Empress Dowager Liu Liangdi.

Wang Shichong did all kinds of things, and Yang Tong didn't know anything.

Perhaps, he still doesn't even know the news of Yang Guang's killing, like a caged bird.

It is not surprising that the eunuch brought Wang Shichong's letter to meet Li Yanqing. The tricks that Wang Shichong made in Luoyang, Li Yanqing can see it, and Li Mi can also see it. The Art of Diagrams...... Li Yanqing and Li Mi are not necessarily worse than Wang Shichong.

However, this eunuch carried a letter from Yang Tong, the lord of the imperial palace, but it was beyond Li Mi's expectations.

"Bring the letters."

Li Mi sat down in the lobby and immediately ordered the letter to be fetched.

Lu Ruzong did not dare to hesitate, and hurriedly handed the letter to Li Mi. Li Mi opened Wang Shichong's letter first and couldn't help laughing.

Wang Shichong's letter to Yanqing has a very clear meaning.

Now that Emperor Yang Guang has been killed, and the Emperor Tai is young, he is afraid that he will not be able to take on the heavy responsibility and turn the tide in the crisis. Now in the Heluo area, you Li Xianbo and I can barely support the situation. The emperor wanted to give me the throne, but I didn't have the intention, but seeing the difficult situation, I could only reluctantly agree. But I can swear to heaven that as long as the world is peaceful, I will return the throne to the emperor.

I did this for the sake of the Sui family, and I also asked Li Xianbo not to misunderstand.

In addition, I have a niece who is eighteen years old and has a great admiration for you. I just don't know, does my niece have the honor to serve you?

The letter also said that after the emperor gave up the throne, Li Yanqing would be named the Great Sima, above the three dukes, and the opening of the palace with the three divisions.

Li Mi couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw it.

"People say that the king is full of hypocrisy, and now he says that it is not true.

His heart is well known to passers-by. It's really disgusting to have to make a loyal and filial son. It's an official again, it's Xu Jue again, and even the beauty plan has been used. Hehe, if this is a different person, I can't say that I may really be deceived by him. ”

The implication is that Wang Shichong can't hide this from Li Yanqing.

Lu Ruzong said worriedly: "Great King, that Li Yanqing is indeed a difficult master, and I have never seen such a thoughtful person as him. However, after all, he is young and vigorous, Wang Shichong exalts him like this, and he is also a beauty, but I am afraid that he may not be able to withstand it.

I heard that Li Yanqing is lustful, and his wife is still not sufficient, so he took in another concubine last year.

In case he moves his heart and joins forces with Wang Shichong, the king will inevitably face the situation of being attacked on his belly and back, and he can't be unconsciously vigilant! ”

Li Mi bowed his head and thought so.

He picked up another letter and opened it.

This letter was written by Yang Tong, the lord of Huangtai. The letter was full of sorrow, saying that Wang Shi was full of wolf ambitions, and he was pressing step by step. Now Yang Tong is locked in the deep palace and has no contact with the outside world at all. Before he ordered someone to distribute the colorful silk brocade in the palace to the shop for peace, but Wang Shichong later guarded the palace gate, making it difficult for him to achieve his wish even if he was the only thing he could do......

Yang Tong begged Li Yanqing to try to rescue him, and said that he heard that Yu Wenhua and the murder of the monarch could no longer support it under the attack of Fang Yanqian and others.

If Yu Culture and go north, Yang Tong still has a seal of the Son of Heaven in his hands, and he may be able to subdue Yu Wenhuahe's subordinates, and ask Li Yanqing to gather people and horses, and quickly go to the eastern capital to rescue him......

Li Mi read the letter and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

He raised his head, looked at Lu Ruzong, and suddenly said after a while: "Confucianism, if you are the king of Qin now, can you take Wang Shichong and replace him?" ”

When Lu Ruzong heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned......

******

Gong County, Li Mansion.

Li Yanqing said in a deep voice: "I want to implement the new law, what do you think?" ”

Xue Shui, Du Ruhui, Eldest Sun Wuji, Yao Yi and others were all stunned, looking at Li Yanqing in surprise, not knowing why he wanted to implement the new law at this time.

Yan Qing picked up an official document from the table and handed it to Du Ruhui.

Du Ruhui took it from Yan Qing's hand suspiciously, swept it over with a glance and ten lines, and his thick eyebrows jumped frequently.

After a long time, after reading these things that Li Yanqing had sorted out all night, he handed them back to the eldest grandson Wuji.

"Yanqing, if you do this, you will cause big trouble."

"Oh?"

"If you want to implement the method of apportioning the land into the mu and change the poll tax to the field tax, the most affected ones are the Zheng, Pan, Cui, and Lu families.

I don't know why you're doing this, but I'm sure that if you do, you'll provoke a revolt from all over the world. You must know that the population of Xingyang County is indeed increasing, and you are constantly encouraging the displaced people to reclaim the wasteland. However, the people who have the most land in Xingyang County are only Zheng Pan's wealthy families. If you do that, you're skinning them. ”

Whether it was the eldest grandson Wuji or Xue Shu, they all nodded one after another.

They are also from the world, how can they not see the stakes in Li Yanqing's plan?

Yan Qing seems to have expected such an outcome.

Indeed, the most affected by the change of head tax to field tax is none other than the great gate valve of Xingyang County. In this society, where the world's wealthy families are the main body, the privileges they enjoy are far beyond the ordinary people. Land is the foundation of these families. Li Yanqing's practice of Tianfu can certainly improve the phenomenon of displaced people, further increase the population of Xingyang, and stabilize Xingyang, but on the other hand, his practice will also offend the privileged class of Xingyang County and cause great harm.

Li Yanqing closed his eyes, his heart full of helplessness.

He really wanted to carry out the method of Tian Fu, but when he finished writing it yesterday, he already had a premonition of the difficulties.

Elites such as Du Ruhui Xue and Sun Wuji can't accept such a change, let alone others? Yan Qing sighed, took out another plan, and handed it to Du Ruhui.

"Rent a tune?"

Du Ruhui carefully read the second set of plans, and his tightly knit brows suddenly eased a lot.

"If the law of equalizing fields is restored, every male will be given a field. It is also acceptable to implement the rent adjustment method on this basis. ”

He nodded slightly, and while watching, he muttered: "Every Ding loses three stones of millet per year for rent; Lose two zhang of silk, five taels of cotton, for the tune. Twenty days of service is for regular service, and if you do not serve, you will be four feet of silk per day, which is mediocre...... Yanqing, this method is okay to implement, but even if there is such a plan, why don't you take it out at the beginning? ”

Li Yanqing smiled but did not answer, and looked around at everyone in the hall.

The eldest grandson Wuji rolled his eyes, stared at Yan Qing and said with a smile: "Isn't it Zheng Pan Cuilu, who provoked you?" ”

Li Yanqing still didn't answer, but waved his hand and ordered Zu Shou to take a map and hang it in the center of the lobby.

He got up, walked to the map, and pointed to the red arrow indicated on the map, "I plan to send troops from Niuzhukou on May 13, force the river to cross the river, and attack Wen County." Xue Shui and Luo Shixin, after attacking Wen County, must not stay, must occupy Qiziling in early June, and take Wangwu County...... I led the army and went east to capture Linqingguan. During this period, the affairs of Xingyang County were handled by Du Ruhui and Wuji. In short, I don't care what method you use, I must implement the new law before I withdraw my troops. ”

After speaking, Yan Qing turned around and walked out of the lobby.

Leaving everyone in the hall to look at each other......

What is his intention to implement a new law for a while, and to capture Hanoi for a while?

After Xue Shu groaned for a long time, he suddenly stopped Zu Shou.

"Zu Shou, what happened in the house yesterday?"

Zu Shou was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and said, "It seems that nothing happened...... Oh, late last night, Wu Ji from the Tang Dynasty Trading House came to visit Childe.

Other than that, there's not much going on. ”

"Wu Ji came to the door late at night?"

Xue Shu rubbed his cheeks lightly, thought for a long time, and then asked: "Those two copywritings, but they were completed after Wu Ji left?" ”

"Well...... It is said that the lord went to visit the prince of Chai and did not return until dawn.

This copywriting must have been completed with Chai Gong...... But I don't know exactly what happened. Da Lang, if you have any doubts, but ask the lord, don't embarrass me. ”

Xue Shui laughed and waved his hand, "Don't ask, don't ask!" ”

Then he turned around and said: "In my opinion, maybe Chang'an doesn't know how to anger Yanqing, he is demonstrating to Chang'an." ”

Du Ruhui was stunned, "Demonstrate to Chang'an? ”

"If my guess is correct, I'm afraid Chang'an sent someone over, maybe there are still things about Zheng Pan's family.

If this is not the case, why did Yan Qing come up with the method of spreading the land into the mu? Didn't he know that it was impossible to carry out that plan?

He was demonstrating to Chang'an, and at the same time putting pressure on Zheng Pan's family. And the real purpose of this is probably to implement this law of rent adjustment...... Yan Qing is going to brand Xingyang County with his brand! Only in this way can he gain a firm foothold in the future. ”

Du Ruhui and the others couldn't help but change their faces.

The cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys cook?
