Chapter 314: Cutting the Eunuchs
"That's right!" Fang Xuanling's eyes lit up, and he suddenly shouted: "What a talent!" It's because we're all trapped by our vision! β
Seeing that Fang Xuanling suddenly shouted, His Majesty Li Er hurriedly asked, "Trapped?" What do you mean? β
Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, just after being reminded by the concubine, the minister found out that I have a lot of counties in Tang Prefecture, but there is only one national eunuch in Chang'an. β
"And the people of the world outside Chang'an can only go to private learning, which is expensive and not to mention, private learning is often controlled by the family."
"If a student comes out of this kind of private learning, after gaining fame, he will have an unclear relationship with the family."
"Then you mean that the imperial court will run more schools in various places?" His Majesty Li Er is not stupid, touching his beard, and said in a deep voice.
"Exactly! If all states and counties have schools run by the imperial court, it will enable the scholars of the poor family to read, cooperate with the bookstore to greatly speed up the cultivation of talents, not to mention, and also save them from being manipulated by the family. Fang Xuanling said very excitedly.
"But in this case, the cost is huge, where does the money come from?" Wei Zheng said suddenly.
"This, maybe the state and county can pay for it? β’ Fang Xuanling said a few words, just one
It's gone.
There is no way, the treasury has run out of money in the past two years, and the states and counties have no money!
At this time, everyone stared at Li Hui with expectant eyes.
Li Hui felt a group of fiery gazes hitting him, very awkward.
I had to open my eyes and pretend to be helpless and said, "Doesn't Your Majesty already have Zhenguan Salt?" β
"Zhenguan salt? Didn't you let me raise the price for profit? "His Majesty Li Er was a little puzzled.
"It's not a price increase for profit, it's a salt franchise." Li Hui sent the Buddha to the west.
"I seeβthe pony is really far-sighted." Fang Xuanling's face was happy, as if he had thought of something again.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Fang Xuanling paused and continued: "Since the Han Dynasty, salt and iron have been purchased by the government at a fixed price, and then sold in a unified manner, which is quite profitable. β
"But when I first established the Tang Dynasty, Yanli was in the hands of those families. In this way, the annual loss of the imperial court is unknown! β
At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, salt was not important, and it was not until the first year of Xuanzong that salt and iron envoys were set up, and the salt tun was exclusively sold, and it really made a lot of profits.
"Indeed, it's just that it's too big to clean up. Now, His Majesty Li Er's eyes flickered, as if he was thinking.
"Now that the power of the family has weakened a lot, it is just right to fall into the well, cough cough, and pursue it with victory!" The eldest grandson Wuji also figured it out, and said with a smile.
"Please Your Majesty set up special salt and iron envoys in each province, imitate the tuntian and place the salt tun, and it will be directly under the jurisdiction of the central court. In this way, not only can the imperial court get a lot of money every year, but it can also increase the weakening of the power of the family, cooperate with the state and county schools, and eliminate the family invisibly. Du Ruhui looked straight and said solemnly.
"Yes! I'll discuss it in detail when I get back. His Majesty Li Er smiled, and said very happily: "Ladies and gentlemen, you are really my master." β
"Where, where, it's all up to the horses."
"Indeed, the horse went straight to the point in a few words, and let the ministers and other huts open."
"With such a character as a horse, my Tang Dynasty is just around the corner."
It's that everyone is humble, patting horses.
His Majesty Li Er also lost some anger and looked at Li Hui.
Stinky boy, I'll still help me with advice at critical moments, it's not bad.
Then he smiled and said, "The marriage has been prepared, I am here to inform you today, and I am ready to prepare for the day after tomorrow." β
Aren't you really here to eat?
At this time, Cheng Yanjin suddenly squirmed and said: "Your Majesty, you see that the concubine is going to get married again, what kind of county lord and princess are you marrying." As far as my family is victorious, it's nothing. β
His Majesty Li Er smiled playfully and said, "Then you want to?" β
Cheng Yanjin said suddenly: "Hehe, look at what kind of princess you have for the eldest grandson Lao'er's daughter, and give one to my daughter." β
"What are you doing as a princess?" His Majesty Li Er smiled bitterly and said, "Alas, my princess is not uncommon with Li Hui'er!" β
"That's it! Then I planned to accept Cheng Shengnan as a righteous daughter and be crowned the princess of Hanyang. Li Xueyan will be promoted to Princess Wencheng. β
"Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty! Cheng Yanjin shouted excitedly.
At this time, Li Hui half-opened his eyes, looked at it, and said, "By the way, I want to borrow something from Your Majesty in the palace." β
"Borrow something?" His Majesty Li Er was a little dazed for a while.
Borrow something from me? Do you need me too? Come on! Please!
His Majesty Li Er thought for a while, and began to snicker in his heart again, squinting his eyes with a smile and saying, "Shouldn't you say something when you borrow something from others?" β
"I won't borrow it." Li Hui closed his eyes indifferently.
"Ahem." His Majesty Li Er breathed a sigh of relief.
Hey, for the sake of your advice just now, I'll reluctantly lend it to you.
He pretended to be serious and asked, "Then what do you want to borrow?" β
"Borrow a few eunuchs in the palace who cut chickens." Li Hui smiled lightly.
At this point, everyone looked strange.
"Cut the eunuch?" His Majesty Li Er looked surprised.
After thinking about it, he reacted, looked at Li Hui strangely and said, "What are you doing with that?" β
"yes, what did the colt do with that?"
"I've heard rumors that I'm relaxed after the cut."
"Could it be that the horse thinks too much on weekdays and is overwhelmed, is it going to..."
"Huh? How can this work? β
"O colt! You are still young, and you still have a few wives and concubines, don't think about it! β
Li Hui didn't bother to pay attention to them, and said, "Cut the pig." β
"What do the chickens that cut pigs do?" His Majesty Li Er's eyes widened, and he looked very curious.
"To eat pork." Li Hui replied succinctly.
"Pork? How can you eat it? His Majesty Li Er had never heard of it, and asked in surprise.
"yes, what a lot of pork."
"I took a bite and threw up."
"It's just that the poor don't like to eat."
The ministers also agreed.
"If I say I can eat it, I can eat it." Li Hui blinked and asked indifferently, "Your Majesty, do you want to gamble?" β
"Hahaha!" His Majesty Li Er suddenly laughed loudly: "Don't bet!" β
Every time I bet with this kid, I lose, stop betting! I said anything, never gamble again!
"It's boring." Li Hui closed his eyes.
"Hehe, since you are so confident. Then I will lend you a few people. His Majesty Li Er smiled and said, "When the time comes, I will taste it again and see if it is really as you said." β
Seeing that His Majesty Li Er pretended to be in front of the ministers.
Li Hui didn't bother to slap him anymore, so he simply closed his eyes.
Seeing that Li Hui stopped talking again, His Majesty Li Er snorted angrily and said, "It's not early today, I and you Aiqing, let's have a light meal at the horse's house." β
He looked at Li Hui again and asked, "You have no opinion, right?" β
Oh, it turns out that I still have to rub rice.
