Great Tang Broom Star

Xu Jingzong demoted Yushi Zhongcheng, this change surprised everyone.

"Xu Jingzong has become Yushi Zhongcheng, so who is going to be impeached in the future is not a matter of the emperor's words?"

Cui Chen knows all about this.

Wang Shun took a sip of tea, narrowed his eyes and said, "The dispute between the emperor and empress is a good thing for us."

Cui Chen said with a smile: "The dispute between the emperor and the empress, of course we don't have the heart to deal with the nobles, so let's just watch and watch them make trouble. The bigger the trouble, the better."

Lu Shungui leaned against the window to read a book, and said calmly: "If there is a big trouble, the Tang Dynasty will also be in chaos."

Cui Chen said: "The Tang Dynasty is in chaos, so what have we got to do with it?"

Even in the era when the Hu people invaded the Central Plains on a large scale, the gentry could still gather together to protect themselves, and in the end the Hu people had to ask them to serve as officials.

This is where their confidence lies.

Lu Shungui looked up at Cui Chen, and a look of disdain flashed in his eyes.

...

The Jia family and Wei Wushuang also heard about it.

"Will Mr. Xu hold grudges?"

Su Ho said: "Most likely. Mr. Xu is actually pretty good."

Why!

The two sighed.

"This is the complete offense." Su Ho said melancholy: "I also asked Mr. Xu to support you in the future!"

Wei Wushuang laughed and said, "Your husband is not enough?"

Su Ho leaned against the window, put a pair of small delicate feet on the ice basin, and said comfortably: "My husband is very lazy."

"Auntie!"

Doudou rushed in like a cannonball, "Mother!"

Su Ho was startled, and stepped on the ice basin as soon as he relaxed his feet. He was suddenly groaned by the cold, and his feet softened, and he sat down on the ground.

ah!

Doudou was dumbfounded, "Aniang, it's not me!"

"Jia Doudou!"

Su Ho got up and asked, "What is it worth making a fuss about? You can't tell... deduct pocket money.

"

Doudou put on a bitter face, "Grand Xu is here, and he brought gifts."

Wei Wushuang and Su Ho looked at each other.

Su Ho tentatively asked: "Could it be that Mr. Xu... was mad with anger?"

In the front yard, Xu Jingzong sat with Jia Pingan and Yang Deli.

"The summer is so hot, the old man wonders why His Majesty doesn't go to Jiucheng Palace."

"If you go there, you won't see the scenery, so it's better not to go." If Li Zhi heard Yang Deli's answer, he would definitely explode.

"That's right." Xu Jingzong agreed with this statement.

"Yushitai is a good place, Mr. Xu, do you have enough pots at home?"

Jia Pingan asked quietly.

Xu Jingzong said frankly: "If it is not enough, it must be enough. Your Majesty's arrangement, even if the old man is angry with others, he must continue."

This is why Xu Jingzong was able to live a rich life and die in bed.

Be content and be happy, do things with one heart, don't ask why.

This is loyalty, and this is the emperor's most trusted courtier.

"Meet Mr. Xu."

The children of the family came out, which is not unexpected.

Xu Jingzong laughed, "I've got some delicious food at my house, go, go, go!"

He raised his eyes, "Hey! It's getting late, the old man has to go back quickly."

"What time is it? Now that you're here, you have to eat before leaving."

"It's not right."

"Yes, very appropriate..."

"Then just be casual, just get some light food, and wine... just light wine."

After eating and drinking enough, Xu Jingzong carried a pack of duck tongue with sauce, and said with a red face: "Go home to eat later."

After Xu Jingzong was sent away, Jia Pingan was thinking about the emperor's layout.

Now there are only three prime ministers left in the court, Li Ji, Liu Rengui, and Dou Dexuan. Li Ji is very old and doesn't care about things anymore. Dou Dexuan is in charge of money bags; Liu Rengui is left...

"Old Liu will be proud, no one will argue with him now."

Liu Rengui has a lot of fame and fortune. During the previous six prime ministers, he backstabbed his colleagues from time to time, but he was still suppressed. It's different now, and it's time for him to flex his muscles.

"Three chancellors are under the control of one Liu Rengui. In this situation...what is the emperor trying to do?"

Jia Pingan really didn't understand.

But he is a peripatetic, no matter!

He only cares about one thing: who supervises the country.

Elder Sister felt that it was up to her to step aside when her eldest nephew grew older... But she didn't know that the emperor would still live for almost twenty years.

Historically, when Li Zhi was around, the power of Datang was always firmly held by him, so Jia Pingan felt that there was really no need for sister to fight for this.

But he couldn't persuade him about such things.

He could only let the eldest nephew get out of the way, so as not to be hurt by the fists of the emperor and empress.

The rest... leave it to fate.

After figuring this out, Jia Ping'an's mood improved.

"Where's Doudou?"

Back in the backyard, it was so quiet that it made people feel uneasy.

"Mr. Lang, the little lady is taking Mr. Erlang to see some tricks."

No wonder!

Jia Pingan touched it quietly.

"Look, turn this..."

A candle is under the carousel, and the drive wheels turn, projecting those pictures in all directions.

"Fun!"

Jia Hong clapped his hands and said joyfully, "I still want to watch it."

Doudou said proudly; "Sister will buy you the best one later."

This big lady did a good job.

The old father outside the door was very relieved.

"Erro."

"ah!"

"I'm going out to play tomorrow, so you can go too."

Jia Hong shook his head, shaking the fat on his face, "No, no, I want to accompany my mother."

This child's kindness made the whole family a little worried, but his filial piety moved the family.

"Sister will take you to eat delicious food, and there are many fun things to do."

"No!"

"Those elder sisters all like you and say you are fun."

"They just like to pinch my face and say that fleshy things are fun, I don't like it."

Jia Ping'an couldn't help smiling.

Jia Hong is kind-hearted, with slightly chubby cheeks, looking particularly festive. Anyone who saw this child wanted to pinch his cheek and tease him.

"Go if you want to go, don't go if you don't want to go."

Jia Ping'an felt that it was time to educate him.

"Aye."

The two children got up.

Doudou argued: "But Erlang is bored at home!"

"He's still young." Jia Pingan said, "It's one thing for those little ladies to like Erlang, but it's another thing to tease Erlang. You are a sister, you have to protect your younger brother instead of letting others tease him."

Doudou was taken aback.

Children are still young, so enough teaching is enough.

Jia Pingan went back.

On the second day, DouDou said he was going out.

"I will tell them, don't tease Erlang in the future, otherwise I will be unhappy!"

The daughter gradually grew up.

When the girl grows up, other people's wild boars will covet her.

When Jia Pingan went to court today, someone asked about Doudou on the way.

"The child is still young, only thirteen. Let's wait until eighteen."

What can a teenager see? At this time, the engagement is a scam.

So Jia Pingan would never do such things.

The three prime ministers sat there alone, while the others stood.

Li Ji squinted his eyes and dozed off, while Dou Dexuan was thinking about the affairs of the household department, muttering something...

Liu Rengui is in high spirits...

"Queen, the emigration has encountered some obstacles. People are making trouble everywhere."

Empress Wu's phoenix eyes were slightly cold, "Immigration is a major event, whoever dares to stop it will be dealt with everywhere."

Liu Rengui was very happy with this attitude, "Yes."

A servant came in, "Empress, Shen Qiu asks to see you."

The commander of the hundred knights is here.

"Queen, after the immigration conditions have been spread to various places, the people everywhere have signed up enthusiastically..."

The latest immigration policy is very generous: after going to Anxi or the South, tax exemption for five years is a hard condition. The second is that schools are being built in various places, and the concentration of schools in the immigrant area is higher than that in Guanzhong, so as to ensure that the children and grandchildren of the immigrants can have a good future...

The conditions here are attractive enough, but there is another hard dish behind it: the governments of various places give priority to the children of immigrants.

Liu Rengui glanced at Jia Pingan, "Governments in various places give priority to the children of immigrants, and this was added by Zhao Guogong's strong request."

Dou Dexuan said: "Even this old man wants to immigrate with his children."

This is a joke, but it also shows the generosity of this policy from the side.

What are the parents thinking? What I think is that we can endure hardships, and we are willing to do anything that is beneficial to our children.

"The schools are denser than those in Guanzhong, and they have to give priority to the children of immigrants. Those who have land want to emigrate."

Shen Qiu also felt that this policy was too generous.

Jia Pingan said: "Since many years ago, Guanzhong has become the headquarters of the dynasty. Whether it is officials or the army, Guanzhong is the most prosperous. For example, the most elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are located in Guanzhong..."

Liu Rengui said: "This can fill your stomach and ensure stability."

Filling the heart is saying that the Guanzhong area is the heart of Datang, and it is also the basic market of Datang. If Guanzhong is stabilized, Datang is stabilized.

Jia Pingan said: "That was in the past, and now the Tang Dynasty has a huge territory. If you still hold on to the signboard of Guanzhong as your heart, how can the development be balanced? Guanzhong is lush, but Guanzhong has limited resources and limited fields. Everyone is crowding into Guanzhong. The result in exchange is that the land cannot carry so many people..."

This is a reality. The collapse of the Fubing system was due to the annexation of land, and the lack of land in Guanzhong, and farmers lost their land...

"Why is Datang afraid that other places will flourish?"

Jia Pingan felt that what the Great Tang lacked was a correct long-term plan. "Guanzhong was overcrowded in the early years, but no matter whether it was the rich, the wealthy, or the common people, they refused to leave Guanzhong. How to change under such a background? The only way is to increase the intensity of immigration...and to make the people willing to immigrate, the only way is to attract them with more favorable conditions."

Jia Pingan finally concluded: "One flower blooming alone is not spring, but a hundred flowers blooming together makes the garden full of spring. What the Tang Dynasty needs is not one rich Guanzhong, but countless rich Guanzhongs. When the Tang Dynasty is everywhere rich, this is The real prosperity, the prosperity that future generations will admire."

This question was categorically refuted by Jia Pingan, and no one could refute his opinion.

Empress Wu's eyes were slightly warm.

"Why are those people making such a fuss?"

Shen Qiu said: "There are local people who wanted to immigrate, but they were severely beaten, and some people in Beizhou were beaten to death."

Dou Dexuan felt that something was wrong, "Immigration has conditions, and those who do not meet the conditions are naturally not allowed to immigrate. Why do you need to beat me up?"

Shen Qiu said: "That's... a hermit."

Empress Wu's eyes were slightly cold, "Who?"

"Beizhou Wang."

"Beizhou!?"

The ministers looked at each other in blank dismay.

The so-called Beizhou is Qinghe County.

The name Qinghe County can be said to be very popular in the Tang Dynasty.

Qinghe Cui!

There is also a Boling Cui, both of which are in Hebei Road.

"This matter... hehe!"

Someone laughed.

Cui Jian also came, but he remained silent.

"What do you think about this matter?"

Empress Wu asked.

The officials were silent.

The Wang family of Beizhou is naturally not worth mentioning, but what about the Cui family of Beizhou?

What about Boling Cui not far away?

When the two Cui join forces, Datang will also have to tremble!

How to pursue such things?

"The Wang family is Cui's in-law..."

Everyone was surprised.

Empress Wu sneered, "Lawless, no wonder His Majesty would say that the local nobles are the local emperors, who are more at ease than the emperor."

"The minister is terrified!"

The ministers bowed their heads in horror.

"What are you afraid of?" Empress Wu said coldly: "The people were beaten to death, and you should be afraid of them."

These words were almost pointing at the noses of the officials and scolding: Do you dare to open fire at the gentry?

The ministers bowed their heads.

"If you can't find justice, how about I come forward?"

Cui Jian lowered his head slightly.

"Who wants to investigate this matter?"

There was more evil spirit in Empress Wu's eyes.

The ministers bowed their heads.

This matter is a hornet's nest, and if it is not done well, it will become the deadly enemy of the gentry. These are all old foxes, and they can do other things well. Even if they are asked to charge and kill, they will not frown, but if they are asked to touch the gentry, they all shrink back.

"The minister is willing to go."

Jia Pingan came out.

Later, the emperor summoned Jia Ping'an.

"At the beginning you said that the conditions for immigration were not favorable enough. I knew that your words were not sincere, but I agreed to your suggestion, which caused commotion among the people, who wanted to emigrate. It wasn't just the commotion among the people. How could those hidden households bear the news?"

Li Zhi looked at Jia Pingan and felt that the gentry would hate this courtier to death, but this was also the reason why he could use Jia Pingan with confidence.

"You did it on purpose!"

Jia Pingan didn't say a word.

Empress Wu said indifferently: "The school is now spread out, and the gentry are facing a big enemy. They will be weakened step by step, but as long as they have huge hidden fields and hidden households, they can spy on the opportunity to become the king again at any time." It's a serious problem, so why be polite?"

The emperor said calmly: "This matter must be safe..."

"Let the prince go too." Jia Ping'an suggested.

The empress narrowed her eyes at the same time.

...

Hebei Road is only an administrative division, not a management area. As for the geographical location, it is probably in the area of ​​Hebei in the later generations, which is slightly different.

The name of Hebei comes from this.

Hebei Road seems to be desolate, not as lush as Guanzhong, but when those familiar names appear, everyone will be surprised.

The Cui family of Boling, the Cui family of Qinghe, the Lu family of Fanyang, the Li family of Zhaojun...

This is like the base camp of the gentry.

The predecessor of Beizhou was Qinghe County. In the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty, Li Wei changed its name to Beizhou, Yu Wenxu changed its name to Qinghe County, and when Dou Jiande's period, it was renamed Beizhou again. This place name has remained until today.

...

The Wang family is a wealthy family in Beizhou, and there are tens of thousands of wealthy families in the Tang Dynasty, so one Wang family is naturally not worth mentioning.

But the Wang family has an enviable and hated in-law, the Qinghe Cui family.

It is precisely because of Qinghe Cui's in-laws that Wang's life in these years can be said to be in a hot air balloon, getting higher and higher.

The current head of the Wang family is called Wang Ji, with a white face and a thin beard, but it makes him a bit more refined.

Sitting opposite him is Wang She.

"Brother, that bitch was beaten up and didn't dare to cry anymore."

Wang She said contemptuously: "Feng Wu, that cheap dog slave, actually wants to immigrate. But don't even think about it, there is no him in Datang's household registration at all..."

Wang Ji stroked his thin beard, "Feng Wu is just one of them. What matters is who gave such good conditions. Five years of tax relief is enough to make people tempted, but the school is even denser than Guanzhong. The people are in control of us."

"Wonderful thinking!" Wang She sneered, "And what else... Governments all over the country should give priority to recruiting immigrant children, and those lowly dog ​​slaves will go crazy when they hear it, and they even want to become officials..."

"Yintian and Yinhu are the foundation of our family. With these, our family can be rich and honored for thousands of years without paying taxes." Wang Ji said lightly: "Some people say that the rich and noble families are a country within a country. It is the hidden fields and hidden households in the hands of our family. The dynasty can only be strong with the support of taxes, but the taxes cannot be collected from our heads, this is a master."

Why can the gentry overlook a group of mortals, knowledge... Don't talk about it, really think that the emperor is afraid of their knowledge? No, knowledge is not something to be afraid of, what is afraid of is the huge power they have joined forces.

Wang She said comfortably: "Feng Wu still dared to make noise, and was beaten severely, and died in an instant. However, his wife Zhao was crying endlessly earlier, which caused uneasiness among those hermits... Those lowly dog ​​slaves are a little bit The death of the rabbit means the sorrow of the fox."

"Let Qilang go and have a look." Wang Ji said, "Many things need to be done as an example..."

Wang She argued: "The old man also wanted to kill Feng Wu's family at that time, but those hermits were standing outside and watching, their eyes were straight, like a ghost, so I didn't do it."

Wang Ji put down his teacup, "Tell Qilang, tell him to warn Mrs Zhao, if Mrs Zhao is timid, it's fine, if that lowly servant girl dares to cry endlessly, um..."

A stern look flashed in Wang She's eyes, "It's nothing more than a lowly dog ​​slave like a pig and a dog. He doesn't have a household registration. If you kill him, you will kill him."

What is hidden field?

Fields that are not on the tax books.

What is a hermit?

Population not in household registration.

If you are not in the household registration, it means that your death will be in vain.

...

Qilang is called Wang Liang, and he is in charge of Wang's hermit.

The hermits are not in the household registration of the Tang Dynasty, but they are actually the slaves of the landlords, and the landlords own the hermits, just like the emperor.

After receiving the order, Wang Liang set off with a few slaves.

The Wang family's fields can't be seen at a glance, and the hidden households are in the village.

Mrs. Zhao was sitting at the door of her house, with two timid children behind her.

Zhao's expression was dull, his eyes were swollen, and he looked quite frightening.

"Auntie, hungry!"

The child is crying.

Mrs. Zhao went in, "Madam is cooking."

There was not much food in the house, so Mrs. Zhao made pancakes, beat the last two eggs in the house, and made soup.

"Mother, you eat."

The two children looked at the delicious food with green eyes, but they did not forget their mother.

"Aunt just ate."

Zhao smiled.

"Master Zhao!"

Someone shouted outside.

"Fast food."

Mrs. Zhao said in a low voice: "Auntie, go to fight, you eat what you have, don't worry about it."

The two children nodded, but trembled a bit.

When Mrs. Zhao went out, she saw Wang Liang and several big men standing outside, surrounded by some villagers.

"Zhao Shi, Yeye is here to tell you today, here, Wang Shi is the sky, do you understand?"

Wang Liang squinted, looking at these people as if looking at ants, "Whoever Wang tells you to die will die, yeah, if you are willing, then you can kill your family and make you become a thousand-man rider!" A prostitute who is oppressed by thousands of people!"

Mrs. Zhao was trembling.

Not only her, everyone around was trembling.

Wang Liang couldn't help laughing and said: "Look at these lowly dog ​​slaves, hahahaha! Yeye is a god who can control their life and death, but they are just livestock, hahaha..."

He threw back his head and laughed.

Mrs. Zhao rushed over suddenly, holding a small knife in her hand at some point.

puff!

The wild laughter stopped abruptly.

Zhao said frantically: "If you don't let me live, then let's die together!"

——The people are not afraid of death, so why are they afraid of death?

...

Ask for a monthly pass!
