Chapter 62 The whole world is not the king's land
Li Mao couldn't wait to kill Li Longji and then kill him quickly, how could he pity those women of his?
Killing it directly will definitely not work!
After all, this is more than a thousand living lives, and Li Mao is not going to vent her anger on an unarmed woman.
But if you raise these women and let them eat white rice, Li Mao can't accept it either.
The food is not enough for the soldiers under his command to eat, so how can it be wasted on them?
"Your Majesty, I thought I could let these women be buried." Li Linfu said tentatively.
As the head of the cabinet, it is his responsibility to carry the black pot for the emperor.
Although the funeral system has existed since ancient times, it is difficult to find such a thing as killing thousands of harem concubines at one time.
The last time I killed the harem like this was when Hu Hai handled the funeral for the first emperor.
Li Mao made up her mind early on that she would not kill.
After listening to Li Linfu's words, he naturally refused, "This method is too brutal and hurts the heavens and peace, and I can't bear to do it." ”
Li Linfu then said, "How about putting them all into the Teaching Division?" ”
The Jiaofang Division was founded by Li Zhi, Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, and was only in charge of court music at first.
In the second year of Kaiyuan, it was changed to be in charge of female actors, and began to be used as the family members of prisoners, only for Li Longji to play.
Later, as there were more and more women in the palace, Li Longji was also lacking in skills, so he changed the service object of the Teaching Department to the important ministers of the imperial court.
What Li Linfu meant was that these women were useless anyway, so it was better to go to the Teaching Workshop Division to exert their residual heat.
For this kind of thought, Li Mao naturally couldn't agree with it.
He is not a pervert like Li Longji, he wants any kind of woman, but after playing, he throws it casually.
"This law is not feasible, and I plan to abolish the Sect Division!"
"Forehead ......"
Li Linfu was speechless for a moment.
He doesn't have any thoughts about the women in the Teaching Division, as the top group of people in Datang, what kind of women do you want?
His mind can think of these two methods, which is already extraordinary.
It was really too difficult for Li Linfu to come up with a working strategy.
Li Mao also knew this truth very well, so she simply stopped asking him for advice, and directly said her inner plan.
"There is a shortage of food in Guanzhong, and I have already made arrangements for this, and I have set up a tuntian office in Huayin County."
"Guanzhong has a population of more than 3 million, and relying only on the grain in Tuntian in Huayin County is a drop in the bucket."
"I plan to carry out tuntian in Wannian County and Chang'an County as well."
"These women will arrange a separate place for them to farm and let them support themselves."
Li Linfu didn't know what was going on with the tuntian in Huayin County, and thought that he was just using the official field for tuntian.
"Your Majesty, Chang'an County and Wannian County may not be very easy to carry out Tuntian!"
While speaking, Li Linfu also secretly observed Li Mao's face.
It has been more than 100 years since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, and the official fields of Chang'an County and Wannian County have long been rewarded by the emperors of previous dynasties.
Even if there is a little left, most of them have been encroached upon by the magnates of Chang'an City.
Li Linfu knew that if he didn't explain the problem clearly, when the emperor had no land in Tuntian, he would definitely eat and lose.
"How could Chang'an County and Wannian County not be able to carry out Tuntian? Will anyone dare to stand in the way of my policy? Li Mao asked suspiciously.
Li Linfu hurriedly bowed down and explained: "Your Majesty, most of the fields in the entire Guanzhong are in the hands of local wealthy families. Especially in Chang'an County and Wannian County, there is no extra official land at all. ”
When Li Mao heard this, he was immediately furious, pointed at Li Linfu's nose and scolded: "Without Guantian, don't you know how to think of other ways?" ”
"Is it legal for those local wealthy families to obtain land?"
"Even if they all try to file a case with the government, but I'm running out of food, can't you give full play to your subjective initiative and find a way to solve this problem?"
"Li Linfu, I gave you a task, you must get all the fields back for me within a month."
"The whole world is not the king's land, those lands are mine, I can give it to whoever I want, if anyone takes it without telling me, you will clean him up for me."
Li Mao's words carried a fierce murderous aura, as if he wanted to devour alive those who encroached on the fields.
Li Linfu was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat, and he didn't dare to raise opposing opinions at all.
However, the biggest landlords in Chang'an County and Wannian County are none other than Li Tang's clan.
For these people, Li Linfu never dared to offend.
He could only kneel on the ground and keep kowtowing, "Your Majesty, a lot of land is in the hands of the clan. There is no peace in the world, and the minister thinks that he can't attack them! ”
"Huh! No? ”
Li Mao sneered, "I see that you can't be, but you don't dare, right?" ”
"You must think that those people are my relatives, and I will not punish them with death."
"Are you afraid that they will live and one day they will counterattack you?"
Li Mao's rhetorical question was like a sharp sword, piercing Li Linfu's heart.
Li Linfu was really scared.
Even when he dealt with the former prince Li Ying, he was never afraid.
But in the face of a large number of clansmen, he was afraid.
Because he knew that he was dealing not with one person, but with a group of people, and all of them were relatives of the emperor.
No matter how cold-blooded and ruthless a person is, it is impossible to kill all his relatives.
Li Linfu didn't believe that Li Mao would really do anything to the clan.
After all, the puppet emperor of Luoyang is still there, and if Li Mao can be recognized by the clan relatives in Chang'an, then there will be a great chance to win the battle in the Tang Dynasty public opinion field.
"I beg Your Majesty to carry out Tuntian outside Chang'an County and Wannian County!" Li Linfu pleaded.
Li Mao shook her head, and didn't bother to scold anymore.
Three-legged toads are hard to find in this world, but people who want to be officials are everywhere.
"I heard that you are not in good health now, so go home and rest!"
After speaking, Li Mao picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Li Linfu was dumbfounded, and hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, the minister is in good health!" The minister is willing to ......"
"Someone!"
Li Mao didn't wait for him to finish, and shouted directly outside the hall.
"Your Majesty, is there something wrong?"
In an instant, Zhao Gao walked into the main hall and asked.
Li Mao said in a deep voice: "Li Xiang is not in good health, you quickly let someone send him back to rest." In addition, Xiao Song will come over to see me. ”
"The old slave obeys!"
As soon as Zhao Gao's voice fell, he took a few steps forward and walked out with Li Linfu in his arms.
When Li Linfu saw that the emperor really wanted him to go back to rest, he immediately became anxious and shouted at the top of his voice, "Your Majesty, the minister didn't mean that!" The minister is willing to go! ”
Li Mao didn't bother to look at him, waved his hand, and motioned for Zhao Gao to hurry up and take the person down.
For such a courtier who could not fully carry out his orders, he thought it was necessary to beat them up.
