Chapter 122: The Early Dynasty (1)

In the house of Mrs. Qiu Guo in Xuanyangfang, Yang Guifei's third sister, Mrs. Qiu Guo, was very comfortably leaning on the mahogany sofa given to her by Xiao Quai, and the cushion on the sofa was the exquisite wool blanket brought by Anxi Jun from the river this time.

Yang Yuyao took a plate of meat floss handed over by the maid, scooped a spoonful with a spoon and put it in her mouth, showed a smile of aftertaste, and said leisurely: "You say that this Xiao is sick, and I don't know what kind of exquisite heart he was born with, ordinary mutton can be made into such a delicious mutton floss, I really never get tired of eating it." ”

Sitting opposite Mrs. Qiu Guo across the brazier was her eldest sister Mrs. Yang Yuling of South Korea, and her eighth sister Mrs. Yang Yuying of Qin State.

The eldest sister Yang Yuling also picked up the spoon and took a bite, sighed and said: "Who said no, if you didn't listen to what Yuhuan said, who would dare to believe that this is made of mutton?" A trace of fishy smell is not not mentioned, it is still so fluffy, and the aroma is tangy.

Seriously, I once asked my chef to try to make it, but I couldn't make it so delicious and so beautiful. ”

The eighth sister Yang Yujun swallowed her saliva, among the four sisters, her body is the fattest, and her physique is also the hottest, she often has sores on her mouth and tongue, and her throat is dry and hot. She ate two catties of meat floss at once before, but the mouth ulcers have not healed until now, so now she can only watch her two sisters eat.

Yang Yujun said with a smile: "Then Sihai Supermarket will send someone to send some every day, isn't it enough for you to eat?" Why do it yourself? ”

Yang Yuling glanced at her, and said angrily: "Silly eighth sister, this meat floss is sold at a consistently high price in the Sihai Supermarket, if we can do it ourselves, why can't we do it and sell it in our own store?"

This business is so profitable, don't you blush? ”

Mrs. Yang Yujun of the Qin State is compared to her two sisters. It's the most unscrupulous. The character is also relatively weak. was so topped by the eldest sister that she was immediately speechless. But he secretly said in his heart, the Four Seas Trading Company has made money, don't we have a share, why are you so greedy?

The third sister Yang Yuyao answered: "What I'm talking about is, who doesn't blush in such a lucrative business?" Since the eldest sister wants to make meat floss to sell, when Xiao Qu is sick, you can ask him to tell us how to make it, won't it? ”

Yang Yuling said: "Such a secret recipe. Will he be willing? ”

Yang Yuyao raised her eyebrows and said with a smug expression: "How could he be unwilling, and how dare he refuse?" He wouldn't know what he was in now, would he?

It can be said that the whole dynasty is the enemy, the party Xiang Qiang envoy and Youzhou Hu'er have been moving up and down in tandem in the past few days, and this morning, these envoys of all ethnic groups will definitely attack him in groups.

The important thing is that His Majesty also deliberately suppressed him, and his Austrian aid, Gao Xianzhi, was summoned into the palace by His Majesty several times, and now he is not saying a word.

The third brother secretly told me yesterday. His Majesty is ready to remove him from all military positions. At this time, if we can pull him along. If you say something good for him at Your Majesty's place, how can he not be grateful to us, and what is the point of handing over this secret recipe? ”

Yang Yuling immediately smiled and said, "It's a pity, to be honest, this Xiao Qu patient is really good." He has a delicate heart, and the things he makes are all delicate and novel, meat floss, soap, rose glycerin, running water, flush toilets, and this sofa and tall tables and chairs.

The most commendable thing is that he is still so filial and sensible, when something is sent to Yuhuan, he can't forget the three of us! Let's just say that this set of sofas is also sold in Sihai Supermarket, and it has to be more than a thousand! ”

Eighth sister Yang Yuying said in her heart, that person is in trouble this time, and you still want to take advantage of the danger of others? Besides, Sister Yuhuan values Xiao Qu's illness so much, do you still need the three of us to say good things to him?

"That's what I'm saying, this Xiao Qubing is really our money-making boy." Yang Yuyao, the wife of the State of Qiu, said quite proudly: "If it weren't for him and the Anxi army to bring back so much gold and silver from the river, where would we go to find this opportunity to make a fortune?" ”

She was so excited that she almost jumped up from the sofa, and said a little frantically: "One million two hundred thousand Datang gold coins, thirty-four million Datang silver coins!"

So much gold and silver money invested in various parts of Datang at once is worth more than eighty percent of Datang's total income in a year (1)! Hmph, the mold of our workshop is the best, and the craftsmanship is also the best, and we will definitely make a lot of money this time! ”

Speaking of this, Yang Yuling and Yang Yuling's eyes also warmed up, and Yang Yuling said: "Third sister, do you think he can agree?" Why do I always feel a little hanging, but he killed a bloody character in Youzhou and Dang Xiang Baqiang. Didn't you hear what was going on out there? ”

"Call him what??"

"We all call him the god of war of the Tang Dynasty, but those Hu people of various tribes are shouting for others to be slaughtered! What if we take the opportunity to force him like this, and he doesn't buy it? ”

Eighth sister Yang Yuying also helped on the side: "What I'm saying is, how can a strong man like him give in easily, otherwise, today's matter will be forgotten, right?" It's nothing to earn less! ”

Yang Yuyao's expression became serious, her eyes rolled a few times, her eyebrows raised, and said, "What can he do if he is a hero outside?" Returning to Chang'an is not to be beaten by His Majesty and calculated by Hu'er in Youzhou. In his current situation, he still dares to offend the three of us? ”

After a pause, as if to confirm his words, Yang Yuyao showed a vicious smile: "If he doesn't know each other, we will go to His Majesty every day to speak ill of him!" ”

Yang Yuling and Yang Yujun chatted and stopped talking, Yang Yuyao put down the plate and instructed a maidservant: "Tell Guo Si to go and wait by the Wangxian Gate, and invite Liang Guogong here after the dynasty is over." ”

When Guo Si rode a horse to the side gate of Daming Palace to look at the Xianmen, the early dynasty that was being carried out in the Xuanzheng Palace also arrived at a critical place. A minister named Ji Wen was making a proposal to Emperor Li Longji to punish the 2,000 soldiers who went out with Xiao Qu's illness this time.

He was eloquent, and he was prepared, and his words were also impassioned, which attracted hundreds of envoys from various attached tribes to nod their heads, but choked some of the Tang Dynasty's ministers.

In addition to this, the other situations are really the same as Li Mi thought.

Regarding Xiao Quai's handling of Youzhou and Dangxiang Baqiang, Li Longji, Li Linfu, Yang Guozhong, and others all gave firm support, and abolished the status of the two prefectures under the pretext of the rebellion of Hu and Dangxiang Qiang in Liuzhou. It was changed to a normal county.

Xiao Quai's Youzhou assassin He Xiaofen was temporarily appointed in Youzhou. Don't drive Shi Poyan and Xirong Prefecture to stab Shi Xifeng begging wild. Don't drive the rice to capture the usual, the long history of the fine seal security was also fully recognized, and the official letter of appointment and the official body.

In addition, Li Longji also ordered Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong to send more than 30 Tang officials and more than 100 small officials to Youzhou and Xirong Prefecture to assist He Xiaofen and Xifeng Qiye in completing the work of reforming the land and returning to the stream, and organizing households and people.

Meanwhile. The original armed forces in the two places were banned, and the Shuofang army set up Youzhou in the two places to guard and capture, with 800 soldiers; Xirong Prefecture was guarded and captured, and 1,500 soldiers were stationed.

The people of the two places were exempted from taxes for one year, and from the New Year's Day of the twelfth year of Tianbao, Youzhou and Xirong Prefecture officially began to collect rents.

Naturally, this disposal plan was strongly opposed by all the tribal envoys who came to Chang'an to pay tribute, and they knelt down to plead for the Liuzhou Hu and Dangxiang Baqiang, protesting that this was contrary to the conditions of the previous annexation.

In the end, he denounced Xiao Quai's cruelty and inhumanity in Youzhou and the party Baqiang. The brutality of killing innocent people is said to be if Xiao Qu is sick if he is not severely punished. All the tribes will be in fear.

Unexpectedly, His Majesty Li Longji, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, showed unprecedented toughness, and severely dealt with the party envoy Tuoba Chaoguang, who knelt on the main hall and wept bitterly and kowtowed, and was sentenced to forty rods, beaten half to death, and sentenced to prison.

After that, An Lushan, the king of Dongping, jumped out and severely denounced these envoys of various tribes for being provoked and deceived by Tuoba Chaoguang, and if they did not wake up quickly, they would be guilty of the same crime as rebellion, which frightened these envoys one by one.

The wind direction of the imperial court became too fast, and the Tang army was too capable of fighting, and the 20,000 Anxi army broke through the 200,000 Great Food Army horses; The combined army composed of 1,000 Flying Dragon Forbidden Army and 1,000 Anxi Army defeated at least 50,000 Huhe Dangxiang Qiang troops in Youzhou and Dangxiang Baqiang at a very small cost.

There is also the Liang Guogong Xiao who led the troops, after returning from this victory, he was even more spread by the people of Chang'an to be miraculous, first said that this person was a disciple of the gods, and later said that it was the god of war who descended to earth.

The envoys of the thirty-six kingdoms west of the Green Ridge and the Hu Shang of the West City even said that he was the Zoroastrian Soshyan, who could destroy a city with a single arrow.

If this son does not die for a day, they, the attached tribes, will not dare to act rashly for a day. The tribal envoys were so frightened that they did not dare to speak anymore, but one by one they could not kneel down, and lay on the ground and wept bitterly.

So, in order to appease them, the Tang Emperor Li Longji after hesitating again and again, severely punished Xiao Quai, who led the troops this time, on charges of brutality and hurting Tianhe, and cleaned up all his military positions.

Only then did these envoys stand up from the ground one by one under the stern reprimand of An Lushan, the king of Dongping.

On the other hand, Li Longji also comforted Xiao Qu's illness with gentle words, and said that this was to love Xiao Qu's illness, and let Xiao Qu's illness reflect on his own mistakes, and not let him live up to his hard work.

Xiao Quzhi had been mentally prepared for his illness, very cooperative, and accepted Li Longji's disposition with sincere fear, and his warm words and comfort were even more respectful and humble to the extreme, which made Li Longji feel very useful.

You Xiao Qu is so sick, in my hands, I don't want you to be round, I want you to be flat. Seeing that he has such a deferential and uncomplaining attitude, it seems that he has already realized his mistakes, beat it well, observe it, and may not be able to reuse it in the future?

Li Longji thought like this, but the civil and military officials below couldn't help but sigh and be surprised, many people couldn't figure it out, this Xiao was still in the limelight before he got sick, how could this suddenly happen?

ps(1): There was a mistake in the previous chapter, and here I will modify it in the chapter testimonial. (To be continued.) )

PS: The trophies brought by the Anxi army are simple gold and silver: more than 8 million gold coins and more than 110 million silver coins, gold and silver utensils with similar weights, and 150,000 catties of silver ingots.

The mistake refers to how much the Kaiyuan Tongbao of these gold and silver converted into Datang is worth. Before, I calculated according to the black coat of food, that is, a gold and silver coin weighs about 4.2 grams, and it is calculated as 4 grams. Because there was so much silver there, one gold coin was equal to twenty silver coins. I converted all the silver coins and ingots into gold, and then calculated that one tael of gold was about the value of Kaiyuan Tongbao Liuguan. The result of this calculation was that the value of these gold and silver booty was sixteen million yuan.

Later, when it was written that when the Datang gold and silver coins were minted, the conversion method was 40 grams, that is, one tael of gold was minted into one gold coin, which was worth 10,000 yuan of Kaiyuan Tongbao; 20 grams of silver minted a Datang silver coin, worth 500 coins of Kaiyuan Tongbao.

There are two differences here, first of all, one or two pieces of gold are not six but ten, and the other is that the Tang Dynasty has less silver, so one Arab gold coin is equal to ten Arab silver coins.

Using the latter algorithm, the result is that this batch of gold and silver trophies has more than 40 million Kaiyuan Tongbao. However, the gold and silver vessels cannot be melted all, and half of them are melted here, so the issuance of gold and silver coins in the Tang Dynasty this time is worth 30.4 million yuan.

The specific number is 1.2 million Datang gold coins, 34 million Datang silver coins, and 28 million silver beans.
