These days, there are constant turmoil in Chang'an City, and everything is caused by this Li Taibai.

Earlier, since that first article appeared.

Xuanzong asked people to thoroughly investigate the details of this Li Taibai, and asked people to bring him to him.

These days, the imperial court has already collected all the information about Li Taibai.

It's just that his whereabouts are a little erratic, and it will take some time to be arrested and brought to justice.

If necessary, the imperial court will even arrest all of Li Taibai's family members.

But Mr. Li didn't.

He wants Li Taibai, not his family.

However.

What Li Longji didn't expect was that this Li Taibai actually came to the outside of the palace and took the initiative to come to the door?!

Stunned, Li Longji waved his hand: "Beckon him to meet him!" ”

……

Su Che was announced into the Zichen Palace.

This is the inner court hall, which belongs to the side hall, where the emperor usually receives the prime minister and other important ministers of the court, and often discusses state affairs here.

In ancient times, the court meeting was not held every day, at the beginning of the establishment of the general dynasty, the emperor was more diligent and went to the court every day to deal with various government affairs, and later, it was basically a court meeting every five to ten days.

The emperor dealt with government affairs at other times, and generally gathered his henchmen and held meetings in the side hall.

At this moment, Su Che was unarmed, strode into the hall, saw the emperor, did not worship, only saluted, and looked left and right, looking for his own position.

Li Longji above saw that this guy was so familiar, and he was a little speechless, wasn't he from a merchant family? When I saw the Tang Emperor for the first time, I didn't know that I was afraid and apprehensive, but after saluting, I was directly looking for my own position?

This guy doesn't even want to stand!

Generally speaking, at the court meeting, only those who are at the level of the three princes are eligible to be given a seat.

As soon as Li Taibai came up, he looked for his position, did he compare himself with being an important minister?

What a shameless guy!

Li Longji held his forehead and said speechlessly: "Come on, give me a seat." ”

The eunuch hurriedly moved the chair that should have belonged to the important ministers of the imperial court and put it behind Su Che.

"Thank you, Lord Longne!"

Su Che saluted again, and then sat down on the chair with a big grin.

When Su Che saw the king's salute, it was not to bow down, but to bow, that is, to bow.

In ancient China, the so-called 'kneeling ceremony' has always existed.

"Zhou Li, Chunguan, Da Zhu", Jia Gongyan Shu: "One is the first to be the first, the first is the word, the word is left; When the head is to the ground, it is the head of the head. These three (empty head, ton head, and Ji head) are worshipping also. Ji Shou, the heaviest worship, the worship of the minister. ”

"The Legend of the Ram: The Sixth Year of Xuangong": "Linggong looked at Zhao Dun and bowed again; Zhao Dunqian patrolled the north and bowed to the head again, and tended to come out. ”

The head salute is used by the courtiers when they meet the monarch's father, and they are sitting and arching their hands to the ground, and their heads are also to the ground.

But this kind of bowing ceremony is just a simple extension of etiquette, not really 'kneeling'.

Because this prostrate action looks very much like "kneeling", it is actually "lying on your stomach", not "kneeling".

There were no stools and no chairs during this period.

Everyone is sitting upright.

Both kings and ministers are all sitting upright.

Bowing on the basis of sitting upright, also known as kneeling, looks similar to the later prostration, but in fact it is still somewhat different.

After the courtiers bowed to the king.

The king also has to return the salute to his courtiers, and this salute is called the empty bow.

Such a ceremonial ceremony, before the Yuan Dynasty, was just a ceremonial ceremony and had no humiliating connotation.

Later, kneeling gradually became humiliating.

Because at this time, everyone had stools and chairs.

If you can sit but you have to kneel, the meaning will naturally change slowly.

Although in the Tang Dynasty, sitting upright was still a formal etiquette, and the ministers would occasionally bow to the emperor and bow twice, but this was a more solemn link, and most of the time, it was not so rigorous.

So when he saw the emperor in this side hall, Su Che bowed and saluted, and there was no problem.

Emperor Xuanzong, who was sitting above at the moment, looked at Li Taibai below with interest.

"You are Li Taibai?" Li Longji asked lightly.

"Exactly." Su Che said.

"You wrote that article "Rather with Friends, Not House Slaves", provoking the confrontation between foreign countries and the Tang Dynasty, stirring up the emotions of the people, violating the ban with this article, and causing the city of Chang'an to be full of storms, are you guilty?" Li Longji asked indifferently.

"Your Majesty, when I wrote that article, it was obviously written about the previous dynasty, and the stories were all stories of the Sui Dynasty." Su Che said with a smile.

"Why do you say such things when you get here?" Li Longji asked rhetorically: "Do you think that everyone in the world is stupid and can't see the meaning of your article?" ”

"In that case, then why does Your Majesty scare me with such words?" Su Che looked up at the emperor and asked seriously.

The meaning is obvious, it was the emperor who talked nonsense to him first, and he also replied nonsense.

"Are you so sure I won't cure you?" Li Longji squinted at Su Che, his eyes were extremely dangerous, as if he was about to kill Su Che at any time.

"Your Majesty, since ancient times, the king's heart has been unpredictable, of course I am sure that Your Majesty will not cure my crimes." Su Che said helplessly: "It's just that I think that with today's wise and martial arts, he will never kill a talent because of an article, so he is so targeted." ”

Su Che didn't choose to continue to raise the bar with the emperor, this is meaningless to be angry, the emperor is so naïve, so he can only coax it.

As soon as these soft words came out, Li Longji sneered, and he said lightly: "Then it depends on whether you have real talent and real learning, whether you can offset your merits, and whether you can prove that you are a talent......

"How?" Su Che asked.

"Tell me where the disaster comes from in this world? Why so alarmist! Li Longji said.

"Your Majesty really wants to listen?" Su Che blinked, completely unexpecting to ask himself this question.

"That's nature!" Li Longji nodded.

Su Che described in detail in the article "Rather with Friends than Domestic Slaves" how the Sui Dynasty was in internal strife and thus perished, but Li Longji was confident that those problems would not appear in his prosperous era.

So he thinks that Su Che is alarmist, and he has created this prosperous world with his own hands, so why is there any trouble?

Su Che smiled slightly, changed his posture, and said, "That's a long story, is there spiritual food and water?" I speak slowly, you listen slowly......"

Li Longji: "??? ”

Emperor Xuanzong was directly shocked, he didn't think that there would be many problems at all, this Li Taibai said at most some trivial and innocuous problems, which were all old and normal above the court meeting, and they were difficult to solve.

However, Su Che was ready to talk about it, and if he had to talk about it for a long time, he actually needed spiritual food and water!

That's it......

Such arrogant and dissolute people, put up with him, and see what he can say!

The more powerful a person is, the more tolerant he is.

Because their aura is amazing, they can often scare ordinary people with just one look, so those who dare to be presumptuous in front of them generally have goods in their stomachs, and they can't stand up without goods at all.

Therefore, even though Su Che was so presumptuous, Li Longji still endured it, he smiled and waved his hand.

After a while, the eunuch brought a table, on which were all kinds of spiritual food and spirit fruits, some of which were even treasures from overseas, and they were brought over, with a fragrant aroma that made people's appetite move.

Su Che casually picked up a spirit fruit, which was a black-purple round fruit.

Seeing Su Che pick up this fruit, Li Longji immediately showed an interested look, this is an overseas fruit, and ordinary people really don't eat it, but to his surprise, Su Che opened the fruit with ease and ate the white flesh inside.

Although there were some surprises, Li Longji didn't think much about it, after all, this Li Taibai was the son of a wealthy merchant in the Western Regions, and it was normal to have some knowledge.

He dragged his chin and looked at Su Che faintly.

Being stared at like this, Su Che couldn't continue, he wiped his hands with the brocade cloth on the side, and then spoke.

"One of the misfortunes, land annexation, the family continues to annex the land......"

Before he finished speaking, Li Longji interrupted him: "Since I succeeded to the throne, I have worked hard to eradicate corruption, cracked down on the big families, and firmly implemented the equalization system, so that the cultivators have their land, so how can we talk about land annexation?" ”

The equalization system is a system of distributing land according to population.

It stipulates that part of the land shall be owned by the government after a certain number of years of cultivation, and part of the land shall be returned to the government after his death.

Under the equalization system, ownerless land is allocated to small farmers according to the number of people for cultivation, and the land is owned by the state and belongs to them after a certain number of years of cultivation.

Although the landlords' land did not belong to the scope of land sharing, the system harmed the interests of the landlord class and families to a certain extent.

The emergence of the equalization system allowed the peasants to get rid of the control of the powerful clans and transform them into state households, which greatly increased the number of small farmers controlled by the government, ensured the source of servitude, and strengthened the centralization of power.

In addition, on the basis of the equalization system, the so-called government military system was also created, which means that the soldiers and peasants are integrated, and the peasants who cultivate the land in peacetime are trained in the agricultural gap, and they serve in the army to fight in wartime.

In this way, the pressure on the imperial court to invest in the army was greatly reduced.

This set of systems, interlocking, can be described as quite perfect, if you can continue to adhere to it, it is not a good policy.

Unfortunately, no matter how good the policy is, it depends on the person who implements it.

If it is not implemented smoothly, or if someone obstructs it, then the policy will go in the exact opposite direction.

At this moment, Su Che didn't panic when he heard this, he raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, that was before, how was it before, and how is it now?" Is there no one in the court to admonish? ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Longji was speechless for a moment, and he suddenly thought of something.

Just a few years ago, Prime Minister Zhang said that he would not give the number of guards, and suggested recruiting strong people.

In the following year, he recruited soldiers from Jingzhao, Pu, Tong, Qi, Hua and other prefectures, as well as Bai Ding as a long-term guard.

Li Longji did not think carefully about these things.

I was stunned at the moment, and I suddenly came back to my senses.

Why aren't there enough guards?

Land annexation and the destruction of the equalization of land system have caused the peasants to lose their land and become displaced people, and the government and military system, which is closely related to it, will also be destroyed.

This made Li Longji's back cold, he squinted his eyes, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.

Li Longji, who was high in the sky, enjoyed the prosperous era he created, and listened to the flattery and praise of those scholars, but he didn't expect that under the prosperous era, the substructure gradually corrupted and gradually collapsed.

Without hesitation, Li Longji immediately summoned his henchmen and whispered a few words to ask them to immediately investigate.

Su Che took another bite of the fruit and continued:

"Your Majesty, Tang inherited the legacy of the previous generation, and he had more respect for the guards, but when he arrived at the Empress of the Martial Arts, the guards were often borrowed by the nobles and bureaucrats as private servants, causing everyone in the world to be ashamed of serving as government soldiers."

"After Gaozong, the land annexation became more and more serious, and in the early days of His Majesty's succession, the number of government soldiers fleeing increased day by day, so that there was a shortage of guards in Fanshang, and it was more difficult to deploy the conquest and defense. Therefore, His Majesty cracked down on the powerful and powerful, severely punished the families who annexed the land, and at the same time eradicated the malpractice, so that the officials could rule clearly, thus alleviating it. ”

"But the government military system and the Juntian system that have been destroyed, and then want to repair it, where is this overnight work?"

"As long as you don't stare at it, it's back to the way it was."

Listening to Su Che's words, Li Longji couldn't calm down.

Su Che continued: "Your Majesty, the so-called involvement of the whole body, when the Juntian system and the government soldier system were destroyed, the conscription system had to be adopted, but the imperial court could not bear the high costs, so it could only transfer the power downward. ”

"As long as the military system is destroyed, it will have to carry out large-scale tuntian at the border gates to ensure supplies on the spot, or allow border towns to carry out commercial and trade activities to maintain military expenditures."

"In this way, sooner or later, the financial power will be controlled by the Jiedu envoys, and the border towns will eventually become important towns integrating garrisons, tuntian, commerce, and handicrafts."

"When many important positions such as military, finance, and administration are all in the hands of one person, this is the overlord of one party, and the imperial court power will gradually exist in name only."

"In this way, it is an inevitable trend for the external strength to the middle to the dry, from prosperity to decline......"

Li Longji's eyes widened at this moment, and he stood up directly in astonishment, he said in astonishment: "Why is it so? ”

Su Che looked up at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the military system is based on the uniform land system, and the people who receive the land do not pay taxes, do not accept local conscription, and are specifically responsible for serving as soldiers. They are incorporated into additional military ranks and are called government soldiers. ”

"Theoretically speaking, the government military system can not only exempt the people from the suffering of regular conscription and service, but also greatly reduce the military expenditure of the government, and can also prevent ambitious generals from supporting the army and self-respect, which can be called an ideal military system."

"But in this world, risks and benefits will always coexist, and after enjoying such a perfect system, once the system collapses, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Su Che stood on the side of the long river of history, overlooking the entire Tang Dynasty from top to bottom, and naturally easily found the problem.

The destruction of the land annexation and destruction of the Juntian system led to the failure of the government military system, and the demise of the government military system gradually gave the local Jiedu envoys great power, as long as the power was in hand, no one would be subservient to others, and it was a direct threat to the imperial court.

This made Li Longji's back cold, goosebumps rose, and he could no longer stand on it steadily, so he hurriedly walked down.

After the opening of the Yuan Dynasty, the system of festival envoys was generally set up in the border defense, and with the passage of time, their power became greater and greater, and as for "having both their land, their people, their armor, and their wealth", there would gradually be a situation in which the tail could not be lost, and it was almost logical.

Su Che said this at the moment, it has nothing to do with the Anshi Rebellion.

The essence of the Anshi Rebellion was not the cause of the temperance system.

Nor is it "a race other than mine, but its heart will be different."

Tang Xuanzong appointed the world's talents, which is not a problem in itself.

Here's the problem.

An Lushan has received numerous military exploits, but he cannot return to the imperial court and cannot obtain further rewards.

In the later period of Li Longji's reign, because of his neglect of the government, he favored Li Linfu, Yang Guozhong and others.

As a result, Li Longji had to increase the management authority of the feudal town to pacify An Lushan.

But the problem is that this is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire, An Lushan was not ready to rebel, Li Longji directly gave him this opportunity and gave him this right.

In addition, the death of Li Linfu led to a reduction in the restriction of the festival degree.

Yang Guozhong also controlled the channels of ascension, and the relationship with An Lushan became more and more tense.

An Lushan understands that it will be difficult for him, the envoy of the Three Towns Festival, to die well, and instead of sitting and waiting to die, it is better to fight to the death and directly tear the Datang Mountains and Rivers.

However, this also confirms from the side that the festival makes it difficult for the system to last.

At this moment, Li Longji walked down.

He paced and said: "If the Jiedu system will make the place bigger, then use the preferential treatment to remove the power of the Jiedu Envoy, transfer the elite of the local army to the center, and implement internal and external rotation with the forbidden army, so that the soldiers are impermanent and handsome, and then the civilian officials sent by the imperial court divide and rule, what do you think?" ”

When Su Che heard this, he was stunned, he shook his head and said: "In this way, although there is no place to worry, the strong and weak branches can be strong, and in the face of foreign enemies, they are destined to be unable to defend, and over time, the national strength will weaken, and there will be the danger of losing the country." ”

Li Longji's method was the Song Dynasty's solution to the system of moderation.

The Song Dynasty suppressed the military with literature and exchanged the New Year's coins for peace, and after all, it would raise tigers.

This gave the Song Dynasty the reputation of a weak Song.

In fact, this is the action taken by the Song Dynasty after learning the lessons of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

At this moment, Li Longji can think of this method instantly, and to a certain extent, he is also a talent.

Although this will prevent the region from becoming bigger, it will also make the army's combat effectiveness worse and worse, making the army weak and the country poor.

Li Longji listened to this at the moment, and after thinking about it carefully, this is indeed the truth.

He looked at Su Che and asked, "Then do you have a solution?" ”

Su Che said seriously: "What is the use of treating the symptoms but not the root cause?" It is necessary to start with land annexation, solve the problem at the source, and first reduce the land annexation of the big families, so that the system of land equalization can continue to be implemented, and the government and military system can be re-established. ”

"As long as the government military system is successfully maintained, then all problems will be solved."

"But the matter of land annexation is an eternal problem, how can this be solved?" Li Longji continued to ask.

"In my opinion, there are two solutions to land annexation." Su Che thought for a moment and said seriously.

"Two?" Li Longji's eyes widened.

Then he beckoned, the eunuch immediately moved the chair, and Li Longji and Su Che directly began to sit and talk.

Li Longji asked curiously, "Tell me about it." ”

"The first method is very simple and easy to do, and that is to build an imperial mausoleum for Your Majesty." Su Che said.

"Build the Imperial Tomb?" At the first time, Li Longji didn't react, but soon, he understood something, and hurriedly asked, "You mean the Lingyi system?" ”

"Yes." Su Che nodded and said slowly: "After Liu Bang established this system, Emperor Hui of Han, Emperor Jing of Han, Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Zhao of Han, and Emperor Xuan of Han followed suit. ”

"The wealthy families who carried out land annexation were forcibly relocated, let them serve the emperor's mausoleum, and built a mausoleum near the cemetery for the migrants to live."

"As long as the big families and landlords leave the original place, their influence on land annexation will naturally be reduced in an instant."

"Although this method is not a one-time solution, at least for a long time, there is no need to worry about land annexation."

Li Longji frowned, also took a bite of the fruit, and then asked worriedly: "But what if the family is unwilling?" ”

"If you don't want to, just kill it." Su Che said lightly.

"Killed?" Li Longji thought for a moment and said, "This will cause a big mess. ”

"In this world, there is no perfect, one-size-fits-all policy, and every policy has its advantages as well as its disadvantages!" Su Che said disapprehrovingly: "If you dare to disobey the policy of the imperial court, you will naturally kill them directly, and their family property can just be used to reward those families who are unwilling to migrate, which can be regarded as compensation for their travel expenses." ”

Hearing this, Li Longji pondered for a long time, then shook his head and asked again, "What about the second way?" ”

Su Che replied: "The second way is to turn the internal development of land annexation into external development. ”

Li Longji was stunned: "External development? ”

Su Che said: "I wrote in my theory of the wealth of the country that there is a certain limit to the wealth of the world, either to acquire it internally and annex land, or to develop externally and plunder the wealth from the outside. ”

Li Longji asked: "Is there really so much wealth in overseas barbarian lands?" ”

Su Che smiled: "Then otherwise, those Fanbang barbarians really came from thousands of miles away for your rewards?" ”

Li Longji was speechless.

Su Che continued: "Instead of letting those big families harm their own people at home, it is better to let them go to sea to harm other countries. ”

Li Longji said helplessly: "The overseas barbarian land has not yet been civilized, and there is a lot of miasma, I am afraid they are unwilling." ”

Su Che smiled faintly and said, "This requires the imperial court to set an example, and the imperial court will take the lead." ”

"Shipbuilding, sailors, sailors, it takes a lot of money."

"This money, the court will take the lead in coming out, so that those who are rich will pay and those who have people will pay out."

"These people may be reluctant at first, but as long as you come forward, someone will definitely throw money into it."

"However, as long as they return with a full load and share their profits, they will be pleasantly surprised to find that there is a lot to be done here."

"Since then, there has been no need for any persuasion, and overseas trade has been carried out continuously with the imperial court as the core."

"As the cost grows bigger and bigger, our Datang porcelain, silk and other precious items can be exchanged for countless money overseas."

"Then use that money to buy gold, silver, bronze, pearls, deer antlers, spices and countless other rare things in China, and even Kunlun slaves..."

"This back and forth trade can make countless benefits."

"In just a few years, everyone will be able to see the countless riches that have been made in the maritime trade."

"All along, these businesses have been controlled by a few foreigners and foreigners, who make countless sums of money, and the court can only collect a small tax."

"As long as you see the road of foreign expansion, then it is only natural to continue overseas colonization and continue to expand!"

"If the families are allowed to look at the outside world and enjoy the benefits of trade, as a price, or as a threat, to make them stop internal annexation, it is almost equivalent to solving the problem of land annexation once and for all."

"Of course, even so, there will still be landlords and wealthy families who are not long-eyed, and will continue to annex land, but those who are not long-eyed are not a threat at all, just kill them!"

Tang is the lord of all nations, his prestige spreads at home and abroad, all countries come to court, everyone in the world knows, no one knows, such a prosperous world, but not to use it, is simply the biggest waste!

The so-called heaven and Buddha take it, but suffer from it!

Originally, there was a Zhuangkang Avenue in front of the Tang Dynasty, but he didn't know how to master it, so as to embark on a more powerful road, which was counterattacked, and with the Anshi Rebellion, it gradually declined, and it was normal to see it.

At this moment, Li Longji listened to these words, and then remembered the "Theory of a Rich Country" that he had seen before, and all of them seemed to be connected together.

Li Longji suddenly realized, and a feeling of sudden enlightenment arose.

However, Li Longji only knows how to do it at present, but he doesn't know how to do it, he said seriously: "Please also ask Mr. to teach me." ”

Su Che smiled slightly, nodded and said: "It's very simple, the mausoleum can be repaired, and the maritime merchants can also be opened, if they are not willing to keep up with the trend of the times, Your Majesty will not be able to seize the last chance given to them, then carry out the mausoleum system, and let them regret it too late to regret." ”

"As for the opening of the sea......

Subsequently, Su Che explained seriously.

After a long talk......

Li Longji only felt that there were dark clouds in front of him, but at this moment, the clouds and mist broke through in an instant, and quickly dissipated, and it was already a clear sky, and there was no trace of confusion.

The Juntian system, the government military system, the Lingyi system, the opening of the sea for business, and finally the overseas colonization, are linked one by one, one step at a time.

This person's talent, rare and rare, tricky ideas, and strange ideas made Li Longji throw himself to the ground, and admired Su Che to the extreme.

Subsequently, he promoted Su Che to the crown prince and teacher.

The crown prince and the prince, this is the position of the first product.

But.

This location.

The position is high and the power is light.

In many cases, it is even more in name and position, and it is only used as a name for gifting officials and adding titles, and most of them are fictitious titles, not actual positions.

But.

Li Longji appointed Su Che as the crown prince and teacher, but it was not a false position, but he was really ready to let him teach the prince.

Su Che did not have the slightest opinion on this high and light position, but was very satisfied, he was already indifferent to fame and fortune, and so was Li Bai.

Li Bai's dream is to become an imperial teacher and realize his ideals and ambitions in life, but he has little interest in really being a big official and holding power.

He became an official purely for the sake of being an official.

Although the crown prince and the prince are not the princes, that is, the emperor's teachers, the prince is the prince and the future emperor, so it should be similar.

Not long after, Su Che saw the crown prince of the dynasty - Li Ying.

When Xuanzong was named the king of Linzi County, he served as a special driver in Luzhou, and saw a courtesan, who was favored by Li Longji because of his ability to sing and dance, and gave birth to a child with Li Longji, which was Li Ying.

Because of old age and decay, and the freshness was not there, Concubine Zhao gradually lost Li Longji's favor, and Li Longji did not break off Zhao Life's kindness, and established Li Ying as the crown prince in the third year of Kaiyuan.

As the crown prince, Li Ying did not bring a turn for his mother, and his father gave all his favor to Concubine Wu Hui.

Concubine Wu Hui is the niece and granddaughter of Wu Zetian, and after being favored by Li Longji, she successively gave birth to Li Yi, the king of Xia mourning, Li Min, the king of Huai, Li Qi, the king of Shou, Li Qi, the king of Sheng, and her daughters Princess Shangxian, Princess Xianyi, and Princess Taihua.

And the wife of Shouwang Li Jing is the famous Yang Yuhuan in the future.

Since the death of Concubine Wu Hui, the lonely Tang Xuanzong began to look for a new lover.

But there are 3,000 beauties in the palace, and he just took a fancy to his daughter-in-law, Yang Yuhuan.

So there is a story of entering the pear orchard, entering the Taoist temple, and being a concubine.

However, for King Shou, this is so painful and unspeakable.

King Shou didn't dare to resist, let alone resist.

At this point in time, none of this has happened.

The crown prince is still Li Ying, and there is no harm caused by Concubine Wu Hui.

When Su Che met the prince.

The prince also saw Su Che.

Prince Li Ying looked at this young man of the same age as himself, and couldn't help but show surprise, he didn't expect that the prince and master arranged for him by his father were the same age as himself?

"Why don't you salute when you see the teacher?" Su Che looked at Li Ying and asked directly.

"I've seen the teacher." Although Li Ying was a little strange, she still saluted.

Su Che also returned the salute and said with a smile: "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince, and I am under Li Taibai." ”

After hearing Su Che's name, Li Ying's eyes suddenly widened, and she asked in surprise: "It turns out that you are Li Taibai?!" ”

"Exactly." Su Che bowed slightly.

"So that's ......" At this moment, Li Ying understood why Su Che could become his prince and teacher.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty has asked me to be your teacher for a reason." Su Che looked left and right and said, "Let's find a place to talk." ”

"Okay." Li Ying nodded hurriedly.

Then Su Che probably told Li Ying what he had said to Xuanzong before, the reason why the emperor named him the crown prince and prince was not a temporary position, but a real teacher, although he didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning was obvious.

Xuanzong hoped that the crown prince would promote this matter.

First, you can look at the prince's strength, see how well he is doing, and whether he is a qualified prince.

The second is that if there is a problem, it will be thrown directly on the prince, and it has nothing to do with the emperor.

But if it is done well, then this matter is still the credit of the emperor, and the crown prince is just the executor, and only a small part of the credit is given.

When Li Ying heard Su Che's words, she was very surprised, and at the same time said with some apprehension: "Can I do it well?" ”

"You've got to do it well." Su Che stared at Li Ying and said undoubtedly.

"I see." Li Ying nodded seriously.

On this day, at the court meeting.

When Su Che appeared in the main hall in a grand manner, everyone who came and went looked at him with strange eyes.

Some people have received the news and know who this person is and why he is standing here.

And some people, who didn't know what was going on, looked at this young man in a black robe with a five-inch flower as an ornament at the moment.

This garment is only qualified to be worn by officials of the first grade, and this young man with this face, who is sacred, can stand here......

There was a lot of discussion for a while, and the people who knew the inside story laughed and didn't want to reveal anything.

At this moment, the emperor had not yet arrived, Su Che glanced at the ministers on the left and right, and asked about the other party's honorific name.

"A certain is Song Jing, the secretary of the ministry." Song Jing was stunned for a moment and spoke.

"Who are you?"

Many officials around him asked: "Don't ask me who I am, who are you?" ”

Su Che grinned and said directly: "Everyone, I've been making a lot of trouble in the city these days, and you still don't know who I am?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, their eyes widened one by one, they looked at each other in astonishment, and the city was full of turmoil, this is not Li Taibai, who else can it be?

In an instant, many people seemed to have seen the plague god, and they stayed away from Su Che one after another.

There are also people who haven't left, such as Song Jing, who looked at Su Che, just for a moment, and seemed to have understood something.

When more and more people learned that this person was the famous Li Taibai.

Many foreign officials questioned Su Che at this moment: "You kid, what do you mean by saying that you would rather be with friends than slaves?" ”

In this court, although there are not many foreigners, there are several, and they are not looking at Su Che very well at the moment.

Su Che faced the difficulties of these people, and just asked a little strangely: "Since you are officials of the Tang Dynasty, then let me ask you, are you loyal to your own country, or are you loyal to the Tang Dynasty?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of those foreign officials changed greatly, and they hurriedly said: "I am already a Tang person, so I am naturally loyal to the Tang Dynasty!" ”

"Are you questioning us?"

"What do you mean by asking?!"

Su Che said helplessly: "Since you are loyal to Datang, then I put forward suggestions and theories that are in line with Datang's interests, shouldn't you be happy?" Why do you blame me, and what is the purpose of this? ”

As soon as these words came out, these foreign officials were speechless one by one.

At this time, another person asked: "You said that your article is beneficial to Datang, that is beneficial?" ”

"If not, why should I wear this garment?" Su Che asked rhetorically.

"You must have bewitched Your Majesty!" Someone gritted his teeth and said.

"I can't reason with you...... By the way, did that Zhang say that he came? Su Che asked curiously.

"How can you call the Prime Minister by his name? What a hubris, impudent! Someone immediately reprimanded.

"The old man is." Zhang Shuo, who had white hair and beard, looked at Su Che with an unkind face.

Su Che was a little helpless, he felt that he had become a public enemy of the whole people?

Su Che asked, "Have you seen my Wealth of Nations theory?" How much did you learn? ”

Zhang said: "......"

He is the leader of the literary world and a generation of Wenzong, and at this moment, he was asked such a question by a young descendant, and he was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes and fainted directly.

For a while, Zhang Shuo's face became even more ugly.

Zhang Shuo gritted his teeth and said: "The shaft is not enough and conspiracy!" ”

If this is not the court, the grumpy Zhang said that he was ready to do it at this moment.

Of course, whether he can beat Su Che or not is another matter.

"Don't be angry." Su Che smiled and said: "My theory of national wealth can make the country rich and the people strong, you important ministers of the court and pillars of the country, you can naturally make a lot of money, and then make a lot of money!" ”

As soon as these words came out, someone immediately reprimanded: "When it comes to self-interest in the court, what kind of system has it become!" ”

"Is the old man a greedy man for money?" Zhang said righteously and sternly.

"Who are you?" Su Che ignored Zhang's words, glanced at the person who scolded him, and asked curiously.

"Old man Zhang Zishou!" The man snorted.

Hearing this name, Su Che was stunned for a moment, and then thought about it, after Zhang said, it was this Zhang Zishou, whose original name was Zhang Jiuling, to be the prime minister, this guy was also in a high position and belonged to the figure of the power ceiling of the Tang Dynasty.

Su Che nodded and said, "You guys are tough now, if you really wait for the imperial court to open overseas business and conduct maritime trade, you will not be allowed to participate in the shares at that time." ”

As soon as these words came out, a few people who were still stubborn fell silent for a moment.

Zhang said: "......"

Zhang Jiuling: "......"

They really didn't dare to say that they didn't want to be involved in it at all.

They knew very well that if the imperial court really opened overseas business and presided over maritime trade, it would definitely be able to earn several gold mountains in it, and who would be afraid of having a lot of money?

Although these literati and Confucian scholars say that money is too vulgar, no one will refuse such a good thing as money, they are just pretentious in their mouths.

Not long after, even the crown prince Li Ying came, he came to Su Che's side, and greeted several important ministers of the court.

"His Royal Highness the Prince."

Many important ministers of the court also saluted the crown prince Li Ying.

Soon, when the courtiers arrived, Emperor Xuanzong also came to the court.

With a simple salute, the pilgrimage began.

As soon as he came up, the crown prince Li Ying told the master about his affairs: "Father, you asked your sons to check the number of acres of land, and your sons found that most of the land that originally belonged to the government soldiers has been annexed, resulting in countless ...... of displaced people."

"The Juntian system was destroyed, and the government military system could not be maintained, so it could only be maintained by recruiting soldiers, and the ministers believed that this was not a long-term way, and the burden on the imperial court would become heavier and heavier."

"But if the right to recruit soldiers is delegated to the Jiedu envoy, in the long run, the local area will inevitably be lost, so the imperial court must bear the cost of recruiting soldiers......"

As soon as these words came out, Hubu Shangshu immediately stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the finances of the imperial court cannot support the cost of recruiting troops from all over the country, if this is the case, you can only let the local envoys recruit troops on their own, which is a last resort, and it is impossible for the imperial court finances to be maintained." ”

As soon as these words came out, the crown prince Li Ying was almost waiting for him.

The crown prince Li Ying said directly: "Then open up overseas business and conduct maritime trade, so that the imperial court will have abundant finances and be able to bear the cost of recruiting soldiers." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the court was shocked.

No one thought that as soon as they came up, they would see the dagger!

Your map of Yan is too short!!
