Chapter 80: Drunkenness

"Virtuous son-in-law, what about the family just now, how did the family come from?" Li Shimin pretended to be very curious and said. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Saga family, did I say it? Okay, let's talk about the family. But does my father-in-law know why this is called a family? Li Che approached Li Shimin with drunken eyes and said.

Li Shimin retreated and said: "The family should have begun to show signs since the Western Han Dynasty, a large amount of land was owned by the scholars, and then the inspection system and the Taixue system were implemented, so that their access to the official door is much wider than in the past, especially after Confucianism is set in one, the imperial court will gradually become customized with Confucian scriptures and rituals. The scriptures have become a family study that people have studied for generations, and etiquette has also become the unchanging family style of some people. In this way, some wealthy people will combine Confucianism and etiquette, and "practice and practice through the Ming Dynasty", so that they can become officials for many generations, thus forming a family gate.

Li Shimin sighed and continued: "Since the Han Dynasty until now, the family has become more prosperous, and it is also known as the five surnames and seven wangs, Longxi Li, Zhaojun Li, Boling Cui, Qinghe Cui, Fanyang Lu, Xingyang Zheng, and Taiyuan Wang. ”

"Hehe, my father-in-law is really knowledgeable and knowledgeable, he is really a role model for the kid to learn, and a model for thousands of students in the Tang Dynasty..."

"Virtuous son-in-law, virtuous son-in-law, are we talking about the family?" Li Shimin blushed a little, pulled Li Che's clothes and called.

"Huh? Oh, the family is a big landlord to put it bluntly, and the soil they live on is nothing more than a large amount of land and protΓ©gΓ©s all over the world, and the son-in-law is right? ”

Li Shimin nodded in agreement, and then gritted his teeth and said: "Especially in every disaster year, these big clans always win people's hearts with their rich family backgrounds, and I can't wait for it... Uh-huh. ”

No wonder? Li Che smiled, his face full of gossip.

"Father-in-law, hey, hey, hey..."

"What are you smirking at, hurry up and say," Li Shimin was annoyed and angry, and rewarded Li Che with a burst of chestnut.

"Don't worry about the father-in-law, the son-in-law went on to say, most of the family's land is merged, you think, those people have no food to eat, will they sell all the land, who can they sell it to? Except for those big families, who can have that kind of financial resources, which is like a snowball, and in the end, the common people have no land, and can only be other people's tenants, which makes the lives of the common people worse and worse, who do you say they will resent? Of course it's your father-in-law, who calls you the father of the world, isn't it? Belch. Li Che burped and pursed his lips, why are you so thirsty? Pick up the wine glass next to it and take a sip, well, it's much better.

Li Shimin looked at the cup in Li Che's hand, stretched out his hand to grab it, and when he saw him take a sip, he withdrew his hand and cursed secretly: Little bastard.

"Dad, where did I say?" Li Che stared at Li Shimin with wide eyes.

"Hey," Li Shimin rolled his eyes when he heard this, the title was changed again, and he said angrily: "It is said that the people are living in hardship. ”

"Yes, the people have a bad time and all run to the family, and the land has also gone there, and it seems that the family does not pay taxes, right? Do you still have food in your treasury? If you don't have food, how can you win people's hearts, so you don't have to look at people's faces. ”

"Hey, I don't know these things, it's hateful," Li Shimin looked at Li Che, who was drunk and unlooking, and said with a smile: "In the opinion of a virtuous son-in-law, what kind of strategy is this?" ”

"Your Majesty is really a fan of the authorities, since the world is yours, of course this land is also yours, just take it back, how much land and how much tax you charge, isn't it your words," Li Che glanced at Li Shimin, feeling that Li Shimin asked knowingly, this is not a simple matter.

"This doesn't seem to work, it will make the world chaotic," Li Shimin was obviously disappointed, this was just an impossible strategy.

"Hehe, I know you said this, in fact, this method is not suitable now, has my father-in-law ever heard of boiling frogs in warm water?"

"What do you mean?"

"It is said that the frog should be boiled with warm water and heated little by little, and when it feels hot, it is almost cooked. This is the matter of governing the family to use this method, Your Majesty can print books on a large scale, issue a decree that school-age children must go to school, after ten years, the father-in-law selected talents from the poor family, from then on the family is no longer the only place to select, when the census population, put an end to black households, the collection of private soldiers, the re-measurement of land, everyone pays taxes, of course, your army must be strong enough, then this family is not just you pinch. The corners of Li Che's mouth were lightly raised, and a trace of fierceness appeared in his eyes.

Li Shimin listened to it with a cold heart, what a ruthless strategy, this is a plan to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle, or a clear plan, although his words are a little vague, but the general direction is also feasible, maybe you can give it a try.

Li Shimin pondered for a moment, turned his head and was about to ask how to implement it, only to hear the snoring sound in his ears, patted Li Che's face and asked, "This matter of printing books..."

Li Che pulled the hand that was clapped on his face and muttered, "Isn't the method of printing books for you, don't bother me... What a stingy guy. ”

Li Shimin smiled bitterly, why did you say that he was poured so much wine, now it's okay, he is drunk. Shaking his head, he ordered Wang Kun to personally send him to the Eguo Mansion to take care of him.

The eldest grandson in the dormitory listened to Li Shimin talk about today's interesting things, and covered his mouth and chuckled from time to time, and he was also very curious about how the little baby had such a ghost idea, is there really a prodigy?

"Guanyin, I have already decided to marry our daughter," Li Shimin said very softly, as if he was whispering.

"Huh? Who is Erlang going to marry Xiao Che'er? The eldest grandson Wujian looked at Li Shimin in surprise, but he didn't expect his husband to value the little doll so much.

"Hehe, why don't Guanyin guess?" Li Shimin looked at the eldest grandson with a smile.

"Hmm... Could it be Linchuan, and her age is the most suitable, only five years apart, and the other concubines can't remember," the eldest grandson Wujian thought about it for a long time, and he didn't think of anyone else who was the most suitable.

Li Shimin shook his head and said, "It's our family's little beauty." ”

"Huh? Erlang this..."The eldest grandson Wujian looked very flustered, how could it be a beauty, his brows were deeply locked, and he looked at Li Shimin fixedly and felt very puzzled.

"I have my own plans," Li Shimin stroked the eldest grandson's hair apologetically.

"And my eldest brother?" The eldest grandson Wujian did not question her husband's decision, this is a criterion that must be possessed as a virtuous helper, but I feel sorry for not being able to make the two families close to each other.

"Hmph, don't think that I don't know what Wuji did, fortunately he didn't reveal it in advance, otherwise I wouldn't be able to tolerate him," Li Shimin saw that the eldest grandson Wuji's face was not good, so he slowed down his tone and said: "I also know that Wuji is for my good, but this time he did it, since I ascended the throne, Wuji has changed, become more greedy for power, and more intolerable." ”

"Your Majesty, my eldest brother he..."The eldest grandson Wuji's eyes were full of sparkles, she only had this one eldest brother, the two depended on each other, she also knew the shortcomings of the eldest brother, but after all, the flesh and blood affection was constant.

"Guanyin, you don't have to worry, he doesn't do anything too out of line, and I won't blame him. This time, firstly, I will give him a warning, and the matter of Lizhi and Changsun Chong will not be mentioned again, and secondly, it is also for the good of my daughter, I don't want her to be a victim of marriage, as long as she lives peacefully and happily, can't the emperor's family have family affection? Li Shimin's eyes were full of tenderness, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he had thought of something happy.

"Your Majesty..."The eldest grandson Wujian gently leaned on Li Shimin's shoulder, the corners of his mouth hooked, and his eyes closed, his face full of joy.
