When he left from the Liangyi Palace, Gao Gong called Yi Feng halfway through.
"King Zhao, please get in the car and chat with the old man on the way, how about it?" Gao Gong Road.
Yi Feng chuckled, pulled the bright yellow four-clawed python dragon king robe, and jumped directly into the four-wheeled carriage without the slightest hesitation. If it were before today, he really wouldn't have gotten on a high-flying car so lightly, and he had to consider the consequences of such an overly secret behavior with the prime minister of the current dynasty. But now, although Gao Gong still retains the position of prime minister, he has in fact been given the inner circle of the center of the imperial court by the emperor. Keeping this title for him, Yi Feng guessed that the emperor just didn't want to overstimulate the current court officials, and keeping him set the tone for the Wang Shiji case this time, and the matter ended in the same way as the tone set for the military horse smuggling case.
But this former first person of the Great Sui Hundred Officials has indeed withdrawn from the center of the power stage. Now get in his car and chat with him, even if it is passed in front of the Son of Heaven, it doesn't matter.
Gao Gong was very happy, maybe he had retired, but he valued some things more and more. On the way out of the Liangyi Palace, he sensitively felt the different eyes of the ministers on him. In the past, it was awe with a hint of admiration, but now it is a little afraid to avoid it. King Zhao had kept a little distance from him in the past, but now at this time, he did not refuse his invitation. Being able to get in the car made him feel a lot better.
"When does King Zhao plan to leave Beijing and return to Youzhou?" The carriage is very spacious. The dΓ©cor in the carriage is not luxurious, but it is also very comfortable. The wind was howling outside. There are a few charcoal basins in the carriage, and the carriage is as warm as spring.
Yi Feng sat opposite Gao Gong, took a glass of wine poured by Gao Gong himself, took a sip, and immediately tasted that this was a red wine from Huaihuang Distillery. "It is estimated that he will leave Beijing as soon as the Shangyuan Festival is over, and the specific time depends on His Majesty's will."
"Do you want to add ice?" Gao Gong asked the maid to bring a small basin of ice cubes, and first added a piece to his red wine glass, "The young people in Beijing like to drink red wine. Also add ice. The old man prefers to drink purple wine and rock sugar, but now that he has put down the burden on his shoulders, he feels that he is also a lot younger, and he also compensates for the taste of red wine and ice. β
"Lao Xiangguo has worked hard for Da Sui for half his life, and it is actually good to be able to have more time to enjoy it." Yi Feng smiled, "I don't drink much of this red wine, compared to red wine, purple wine, and white wine, I really don't hide it." I prefer to drink the light ale. You can drink a lot when you drink it, but you don't have to worry about getting drunk and not afraid of drinking and making mistakes. β
Gao Gong took a sip of red wine with ice in his glass, only to feel a cold rush into his stomach. Just like his state of mind at this time. With a long sigh, Gao Gong smiled bitterly: "The old man has been in charge of the center for more than ten years, and he is about to take the crown. At this time, he retreated and went home, and Han Yi was also comfortable with his grandson, but the only thing that worried was the prince. He looked at Yi Feng. Said seriously, "Today, His Majesty asked the old man to leave the center with dignity. The old man didn't dare to complain, but the old man was worried. The old man was worried, His Majesty asked me to leave the center, this is to change the prince. β
Gao Ying felt that it was time for a showdown with Yang Lin, and he had a clear understanding that he was driven out of the center at this time, that is, the emperor had to clear the obstacle of abolishing the crown prince. He had always been a staunch supporter of the Prince, and not simply because his son married the Prince's daughter, who in turn married his sister. In fact, Gao Gong has always felt that there is a difference between the young and the old. After the founding of the Great Sui Dynasty, although the country was rich and the people were prosperous and prosperous, the heir was extremely important to the imperial court. The emperor's five sons are all the sons of a mother's compatriots, so of course the eldest son is the crown prince. And the prince was established as early as when the Son of Heaven was still a courtier of the Zhou Dynasty, and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he was made the prince, for more than ten years, although the prince is not a virtuous person, but there is no big fault. In such a situation, there is no need for a change of reserves, and it will even become a source of turmoil. He has always been a staunch supporter of the crown prince, but now the emperor sees him as an obstacle.
Gao Gong also thought about giving up his support for the crown prince, and even as long as he maintained a neutral attitude towards the prince's affairs, perhaps there would not be such a result today. But now, the Gao family and the crown prince have been too closely connected, even if he thought about it, he couldn't do it. The interests of the Gao family are completely tied to the prince, and if the prince is really deposed, the future future of the Bohai Gao family will be very worrying. In any case, he should have fought again. And Gao Gong seems that after he was kicked out of the court by the emperor, the princelings have suffered a heavy blow.
Wang Shiji, Yuan Guan, Yuan Min plus himself, four important supporters of the princelings fell in one day, which was too tragic for the princelings. Gao Gong felt that the only person who could save this unfavorable situation and re-support the unfavorable situation of the princelings was the young and favored King Zhao in front of him. King Zhao is now extremely favored, especially after serving as the governor of Youzhou this time, the Son of Heaven even denied the recommendation of the ministers, and directly appointed the new governor of Youzhou Mansion to assassinate the history, these people are all people who can be used by King Zhao. Everyone can see the emperor's trust in King Zhao, and they can see that the emperor is showing wings for King Zhao. Gao Gong has always wondered why the emperor did not stop cracking down on the princelings on the one hand, and suppressed the Jin Wang Party on the other, but at the same time he supported the eldest son of the crown prince, King Zhao.
Although he couldn't understand why, he felt that if the crown prince was deposed, it would also be bad news for King Zhao. Therefore, he felt that at this time, King Zhao should take action to defend the princelings.
"The old man knows that there is a gap between King Zhao and the crown prince, but King Zhao should not forget jΓ¬, you are the son of the prince, and you are also the eldest son. If the crown prince is deposed, this will not be good news for King Zhao. You are father and son, both prosperous and lossy. If the crown prince can keep the position of the East Palace, he will inherit the throne in the future. King Zhao, as the crown prince, will be the prince in the future. And if the crown prince is deposed. No matter which prince succeeds to the throne in the future, just ask. Who can tolerate the eldest son of the former prince? To put it mildly, once such a thing as a change of prince really happens, the best outcome for King Zhao may be that the new monarch will become a rich and idle king after succeeding to the throne, and the greater possibility is to be given a cup of poisoned wine. β
Hearing this, Yi Feng knew that the prince did not tell Gao Gong all his true details. He couldn't help but feel sad for Gao Gong, he was so thinking about the prince, but the prince never fully believed him. He has always had reservations.
"Xiangguo's words are very bold."
"The old man just told the truth." Gao Gong said very directly.
Yi Feng picked up the wine glass and gently shook the crimson wine in the glass, he was not the son of the prince at all, so it could be said that they were destined to not go together. But at the moment, he doesn't plan to tell the truth about Gao Gong.
"Xiangguo's words are not true." Yi Feng shook his head, "Even if the crown prince can really keep the position of the East Palace, and even inherit the throne in the future, but at that time, the position of the East Palace will not be a certain turn." β
"King Zhao doesn't have to worry about this, and he shouldn't have to worry about it. In the current situation, only if your father and son unite as one, can we have hope. Otherwise, the prince will be abolished. You and I will be buried together, isn't it alarmist? β
"I'll think about it, but no matter what the outcome of the final consideration is. I would like to thank Sangkook for his hospitality. Yi Feng spoke, calling the parking man. Get out of the car and leave. Gao Gong was left sitting in the carriage, holding a wine glass and falling into deep thought.
Got out of the carriage of Gao Gong. Wei Chigong had already brought his mount, and although Yi Feng was the producer and seller of the four-wheeled carriages in Beijing, he rarely rode in the carriage in Beijing, and more often rode horses. Xu Deyan once persuaded him to let him ride in a special four-wheeled carriage. This four-wheeled carriage was specially built for the rich and noble, and it has excellent defensive performance, which can be excellent defense against surprise attacks and assassinations.
"What is the old man Gao talking to the big man?" Cheng Biting Jin is always like this, and he has to interject if he should ask or not. Yi Feng is not surprised, he does not regard Cheng Biting Jin Wei Chi Gong and others as ordinary flag guards, but treats them as his real protΓ©gΓ©s and righteous sons, so he often explains many complicated things to them. Curious about Cheng Biting Jin, he just smiled and replied, "Old man Gao is scared." β
"The king is trying to help him?" Wei Chigong asked.
Cheng Yanjin said on the side, "Help him, didn't the big man say that this old man Gao has been given out of the court by the emperor, then he still cares about a bird." β
Yi Feng couldn't help but smile, "Biting Jin is right, treat him as a bird." β
"Is this really going to work?" Wei Chigong asked.
Yi Feng turned his head to look back at the palace, "No matter how prosperous Jingshi is, it is not our home, our home is in Yanyun." β
What he was thinking about now was that Ba Wang's return to Yanyun as soon as possible. In this Beijing Division, no matter how prominent the official is, there is also a feeling of powerlessness, which is a sense of rootlessness. All the illustrious qiΔ were given by the emperor, and the emperor could naturally take them away at any time. Especially after seeing the emperor's treatment of Gao Gong today, he felt more and more cold. Gao Gong has been loyal to Yang Jian's confidant for more than ten years, and has been in charge for more than ten years, Yang Jian said that if he was kicked out, he would be kicked out. In front of the emperor with supreme authority, this prosperous Jingshi not only did not make Yi Feng nostalgic, but made him a little afraid. He desperately wanted to return to Yanyun, because after all, there was a Huai Famine that he had built up by himself, and there were tens of thousands of soldiers who had trained his own armed forces. Only by returning to Huaihuang and Yanyun can he have a sense of freedom when a tiger enters the mountains and forests and a dragon returns to the sea. In the final analysis, Yi Feng still doesn't believe in the Yang family, he only believes in himself, once it really comes to that time, if he is in Yanyun, he can at least give it a go.
"I've already packed my luggage to go back, and I've been waiting for this day." Wei Chigong said honestly.
"What's the matter, the prosperity of this Jingshi is still in your eyes?" Yi Feng asked with a smile.
"It's not prosperous, I just think there are more people, but Jingshi is full of walls, separating people in cages, even this market, all of them are concentrated together, I think it's better for us to be famine." Although Huaihuang is not as big as this big city, it is much more lively. The shops are all open on the streets, there is no curfew at night, they are open all night, and you can hear the shouting as soon as you enter the city, and you can't hear it when you arrive in Beijing. stayed in the palace every day, and didn't even have the opportunity to go out to ride horses and shoot arrows, so I panicked. β
"If you are in a panic, you can go to Pingkangfang, there are thousands of little ladies there." Yi Feng also made fun of the honest Wei Chigong. Men in this era are precocious, and there are many people who are fourteen or fifteen years old.
"The women of Pingkangfang are too expensive." Yu Chigong actually replied with such a sentence. Yi Feng was surprised.
Then he laughed and said, "Don't cry to Lao Tzu and say that you have no money." Your kid's previous monthly salaries and rewards add up to no less than a thousand yuan of family assets. If you open a shop and strike iron as before, you probably won't be able to make so much money even if you work for three lifetimes. Such a net worth. Can you still be too expensive for the little ladies in Pingkangfang? β
Cheng Biting Jin revealed Chi Gong's old bottom on the side, "This old black is a dead man, and all the money is stored in the bank to make profits, and he said that when he returns to his hometown in Ulzhou, he will buy land and marry his aunt." β
"This is a good thing, if you have money, it is also earned by you on the battlefield, and the money is not easy to come by, so naturally you can't spend it indiscriminately. Jingde's approach is very good, and there is a long-term plan. No matter how beautiful and charming the bitch in the brothel is, it is only to be bought with money. When men have money, they occasionally go in and buy one or two times, which is enough to see and see. It's not okay to indulge in it. It's good to save money to buy land and a house in the future, marry a wife and take a concubine. Yi Feng praised Wei Chigong's behavior, "However, it is actually better to invest if you have money to deposit in the bank to earn interest, and the most secure investment is to buy land and land." I have good news for you here, I have already told His Majesty that I will divide the land in Youzhou Prefecture, especially in the area north of Yanshan, and the field will be more vigorous. When he returns, Juntian will begin, whether it is a common man, a military general, or an official. They all get a share of the field. Among them, especially our soldiers give priority to the division of fields. β
As soon as Wei Chigong's eyes lit up when he heard the news, "Then how much land can I get?" β
"Our Youzhou Mansion is vast and has few people, especially in the area north of Yanshan. It was even more sparsely populated and barren. Therefore, every male over the age of 18 in the area north of Yanshan can get a share of 100 acres of land. In addition, all the soldiers of Youzhou Mansion. They can all share twice as much land. β
"Then I can get two hundred acres of land?" Wei Chigong's happy voice trembled a little, for people in this era. Although gold and silver are good, they are not as good as a piece of land that can be passed on to a family.
"Don't be too happy, two hundred acres of land seems to be a lot, but the land in Huai is wasteland, and you have to reclaim it yourself, and the land in the north of Yanshan is mostly barren, except for the river valley land, the other land is not very good, even if it is reclaimed, it can only be reclaimed. The 200 acres of land outside the customs are not worthy of the 20 acres of high-grade watered land in the Central Plains. β
"That's not bad, two hundred acres of land." Wei Chigong was still very happy. "Can a woman divide the land? If you marry a daughter-in-law, can you get an extra share of the land, and can the cows, horses, slaves and maids also share the land? β
In the beginning, men and women could divide the land, even in order to take care of the interests of the aristocratic landlord group, so the slaves of the big clan could also divide the land, and even the cattle could divide the land. This enabled the extended families to receive large quantities of land outside of their own population, with their slaves, cattle and horses.
However, by the time of the Sui Dynasty, the Juntian system had actually changed a lot. First of all, the Sui Dynasty was stable for many years, and the population grew explosively, more than doubling compared with the beginning of the founding of the country. Now the population of the Great Sui is close to 50 million, if everyone is granted 100 acres of land, then 50 million hectares of land will be obtained, if even cattle are granted land, the imperial court does not have so much land at all. In fact, a large number of fields in the world are not all public land owned by the imperial court, but private land that has been occupied by those noble and wealthy landlords. There was not much land that could be granted to the imperial court, so the imperial court later had to adjust the system of equalizing land, first ordering that cattle should not be allowed to farm, and later stipulating that slaves and maids were not allowed to be allowed to farm, and now, even simply stipulating that women are not allowed to farm, and only men over the age of 18 can grant land.
But even so, by now, in the Central Plains, there is already no land to be granted, and in most areas, men who have reached the age of receiving land only have 20 acres of land at most. It can be said that the imperial court's uniform land system can no longer be maintained due to the massive increase in population. Because of this, when Yi Feng proposed to give land to the soldiers in Youyan Juntian, and even proposed to give the soldiers land to solve part of the cost of supplying the army, he immediately received strong support from Yang Jian. It is true that there is no land to be granted in the Central Plains, but in the Youyan area, especially in the Yanshan area, it is vast and sparsely populated, and there is a large amount of wasteland that can be reclaimed. In the past, the imperial court did not have enough power to control this side of the territory, so this side has actually been deserted all the time. But now with the rise of Yi Fenghuai's army, the imperial court's control line in Hebei has advanced from the southern foot of Yanshan to the northern foot of Yanshan, and even now Yi Feng has directly prepared many river valleys and rivers in the territory of the Xi people to Juntian.
"Women don't have to divide the land, and they don't have to pay rent and taxes, but if they want, they can rent the public land of the government and pay part of the tenant rent." In fact, this can be regarded as a disguised land equalization, but the original land rent has been changed to tenant rent.
"In addition, those who have official positions also have a Yongye Tian corresponding to the grade, and those who have a meritorious position can also get a Xuntian of the corresponding grade, and those who have a knighthood can also get a Yongye Tian corresponding to the rank of the knighthood. In addition, if he makes meritorious service on the battlefield, he will also have the opportunity to get a gift" Yi Feng said carefully, he already had a detailed Juntian plan in his heart, in short, he was the new governor of Youzhou, and the imperial court did not have much money to pull him out. However, the emperor had already made his plan for the Tsubame Juntian. There is a large amount of reclaimable wasteland in the Youyan area, especially in the Guanwai area, where almost all of it is uncultivated land, even if the land is a little barren, but there is enough land. With this land and this approved Juntian plan, Yi Feng believes that after he returns to Youzhou, he will be able to open up the situation smoothly.
