Chapter 146 Appetite under anger

During the day, Wei Zheng's words not only blocked the mouths of the emperor and Changsun Wuji, but even blocked their stomachs.

Looking at the two brothers who were on a hunger strike, Li Chengqian couldn't help but laugh. If he got angry with Wei Zheng, he would be unhappy with himself.

Standing outside Chengqing Hall, watching the sun set in the west, its afterglow was also reflected on the floor.

After Li Chengqian performed a set of punches outside the palace, he took the sweat towel handed over by Heng Lian, wiped his sweat, and gave him a few more instructions.

In his opinion, there is nothing that cannot be solved by a hot pot or barbecue meal. If one meal is not enough, then add another meal.

"Father, I have prepared a table for food in the East Palace. Please move in with my father and uncle. Let's drink and talk. How can your body bear this?"

People are like iron rice and steel. If they don't eat a meal, they will feel hungry. Even if they are not hungry, they can't bear to wait for Li Chengqian here for a day.

Besides, Chinese people like to discuss and solve problems at the dinner table, which has also formed a unique dinner table culture. It seems that today this matter must be done at the dinner table.

"Okay, auxiliary machine, I'm tired after a day of hard work. We elders can't take away Cheng Qian's kindness."

That's right, if you listen to people's advice and have enough food, you can't get through anything. Although my uncle's method is a bit risky in front of me, for Li Chengqian, a later man, as long as the administration is done properly, these people can't just move here.

.......

"Your Highness, your hot pot and barbecue are still speechless. After this meal, I will feel like chewing wax from now on. I won't be satisfied with the food." Changsun Wuji wiped his sweat and stretched his arms.

The tongue speaks.

Can't you eat more slowly? At your age, you don't have to worry about getting burned, really.

Li Chengqian quickly handed him a cup of tea: "Uncle, don't worry, there are still a few cooks in the East Palace. You can take two back with you when you go back. It is considered as a filial piety from your nephew."

"Then I would like to thank Your Highness the Crown Prince." Changsun Wuji finally had a smile on his wrinkled face, and the speed at which the meat went down was definitely directly proportional to his anger just now. This is definitely a classic case of turning anger into appetite.

.

Seeing Changsun Wuji gaining weight day by day, Li Chengqian had to think that his fat figure must be caused by chewing so much every time he was angry.

"Hey, you rebellious son, even though you are my mother's uncle, you can't do this openly in front of me."

It is true that food can make people feel happy. No, the emperor who had eaten delicious food after a day of hunger was in the mood to joke. It seems that the unhappiness in Chengqing Palace during the day is over.

"Your Majesty, you are rich all over the world. If you don't want anything, why should you argue with me about this?

Besides, it is natural for a nephew to turn to his uncle, even if you are a great person, you can’t change it, haha..."

Changsun Wuji responded to the emperor's teasing for Li Chengqian. Anyway, there are no outsiders sitting here today, and he doesn't have to follow the complicated etiquette. Fortunately, he is as bohemian as before.

As Li Shimin's power grew, no matter how close the ministers were before, they no longer dared to act in front of him like before.

This is probably the feeling of being alone, so Changsun Wuji's behavior made the emperor feel even more cordial.

"Ahem, father, it's almost time to eat. Is it time to talk about business?"

"Okay, since you took the initiative, let me first tell you what your opinions are." Li Shimin, who was in a very good mood, drank a drink and said with a smile.

"The inward migration of the Hu people is related to the country's foundation. In view of the current tight financial resources of the imperial court, I also agree with the relocation of the grassland victims.

However, with the lessons learned from the Jin Dynasty, we still have to carefully consider our national policy in dealing with the Hu people who migrated south."

When Li Chengqian was a new recruit, his instructor once warned them that no matter whether you are a person or doing things, you must first consider whether you have money in your pocket. This is the key to determining whether you have money in your heart.

In other words, we should act according to our ability. Since we cannot afford to support these grassland victims, we might as well move them in and organize them to minimize the risks as much as possible.

"Well, Wei Zheng is not just talking out of thin air. In the fifth year of Yongjia, the Hu people who moved inland captured Luoyang, kidnapped Emperor Huai, and burned and looted. This was the direct cause of the demise of the Jin Dynasty. They rode and shot for generations, and dispersed

To serve the people, to gather together is to become an army.

If these people are left with no chance of survival, then they may take desperate measures. Years of war have caused the population of the Central Plains to drop sharply to more than 10 million. With so many people moving here at once, if something really goes wrong, this is what worries me.

layer."

The reason why Li Shimin didn't go into details in Chengqing Palace was because he was worried about repeating the same mistakes. He couldn't tolerate any slip-up in the foundation he had built over ten years of hard work.

But Changsun Wuji's advice was too attractive. Once the world is one family and all the barbarians are united, there will be a situation of political harmony and harmony in the Zhenguan Dynasty, ushering in an unprecedented prosperous age. How could a king like Li Shimin let go of such an opportunity?

Woolen cloth.

"Father, Wei Zheng is not the only one who is afraid of this matter. There are many ministers in the court who have the same idea as him.

But everything in the world has a cause and effect. If the border officials appointed by the Jin Dynasty did not abuse the Hu people in every possible way and regarded the herdsmen as cattle and horses, which intensified the conflict between the Hu and Han ethnic groups, how could the ordinary herdsmen rise up to resist?

The reason why the son-in-law agreed with his uncle's idea was because there were successful examples. For example, during the reign of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, Chao Cuo suggested recruiting Hu people with heavy rewards and generous rewards, and during the reign of Emperor Xuan, he also accepted Hu Hanxie's protection.

Guangwu also moved tens of thousands of Xiongnu to the south and settled in Xihe. Emperor Wu of Wei, Cao Cao, divided the surrendered Xiongnu into five tribes and settled in Fenshui, Shanxi. All these were effective measures to contain the Hu.

If the imperial court can formulate corresponding systems for the herdsmen who migrate to the south, so that they can abandon herding and join farming, live and work in peace and contentment, and prevent them from being discriminated against and insulted, then these ordinary herdsmen will definitely become kings."

Li Chengqian's words can be traced everywhere. According to Jiang Tong's "Lun on Migration to the Rong": The ambitions of the Rong Di did not play with the Chinese common people, and insulted their weakness, causing their resentment to poison their bones. It can be seen that the Hu people have been oppressed by the Han people for a long time.

Forced, deep resentment.

Some Hu people even work in the service, which is the same as household registration, and provide labor and taxes to the central government. Some are sold as tenants or slaves. For example, in Taiyuan, Shanxi, the number of Huns and Hu people as tenants is thousands. They are even sold everywhere.

, to serve as military resources. Therefore, it is said that the corpses of the Hu people and the people in Guanzhong are all in the form of beetles.
