Wang Xu, the magistrate of Chang'an County, was a little unnatural in front of Li Yuanji. After clearly stating that he was the prince, he reluctantly told Li Yuanji.
There is no "surplus grain" in Chang'an County, and there are still many bachelors waiting for the court to find wives. There are no wealthy official rations for novice monks.
Li Yuanji still admired the official matching system of the Tang Dynasty.
When you reach the age, the government will send people to your door to urge you to get married. After urging you one time, two times, and three times, if you still don't get married, or you are too poor to get married, then you will be matched by an official.
As for the official match if you don't like it, then find another one.
If you still don't like the other parts, I'll give you some hard work that will make you shed a layer of skin. Let you peel off a layer of skin first, and then make the parts again.
If you still don't like it, then you are breaking the law.
If you break the law, you will be convicted. What awaits you is either hard labor or guarding the border.
Anyway, if you don’t want to contribute to the Tang Dynasty, then you can contribute to the Tang Dynasty through labor or border guarding.
If you say something to the government such as, "Strong melons are not sweet," or "There is no love," the officials in charge of official matchmaking will spit in your face.
We don't want your sweetness or your love, we want you to have children as soon as possible.
If you have two children, you will barely pass, but if you have three children, you will be a hero.
"Every year in the palace, there are many maids Fang Liang. Although they are a little older, they are good at serving people. This year Fang Liang's days have passed.
But I can write to my father and ask him to be kind again.
At that time, they can be officially matched with each other."
After Li Yuanji learned about the situation in Chang'an County, he was speechless.
Wang Xu was so moved that he wished he could kneel on the ground and kowtow to Li Yuanji.
If a successful official couple gives birth to a child and has a child, that is political achievement.
Li Yuanji ignored what he said before at the gate of Luoyang City and gave him political achievements. How could he not be moved?
In the past, he felt that he was the prince's man, and with the prince's support, he could comment on everyone.
Ever since Li Yuanji beat Wang Junkuo to death, he knew that there were some people whom he could not evaluate.
So now I am much more cautious and well-behaved.
"You don't have to be in a hurry to be moved. I'm not doing this for you. I still remember what you said at the gate of Luoyang City before. If we meet you today, I'll give you a good beating."
Li Yuanji stared at Wang Xudao.
The expression on Wang Xu's face stiffened.
Li Yuanji didn't pay attention to Wang Xu's expression and ordered someone to knock Wang Xu to the ground and give him a beating.
"I have already taught you a lesson, and the grudge between you and me is over."
"Many...thank you, Your Highness."
Wang Xu is very grateful.
"Your Highness, how about you beat me up again?"
After Wang Xu was beaten, the magistrate of Wannian County took the initiative to come forward and ask for the beating.
Li Yuanji was shocked all of a sudden. There is such a bitch?
Before Li Yuanji could speak, the magistrate of Wannian County smiled obscenely and said: "As long as Your Highness can place some of the good maids in the palace under my jurisdiction.
I don’t mind being beaten again by His Highness.”
It was impossible for Li Yuanji to kill people for such a thing and receive a beating in exchange for a big political achievement. The magistrate of Chang'an County felt that he was not at a loss.
After all, the positions of the magistrates of Chang'an and Wannian counties are rather awkward.
Among the county magistrates of the Tang Dynasty, they were undoubtedly the two top ones.
Among the county magistrates of the Tang Dynasty, they were also the two who were bullied the most.
There is no one in Chang'an who can stand in front of them and howl loudly.
Because the people and officials behind them may be older than them.
So they are in urgent need of political promotion.
If they start high, they will naturally get higher positions after promotion.
"Then let's give him a beating."
Li Yuanji was offended by the meanness of the Wannian County Magistrate, so he ordered someone to symbolically beat the Wannian County Magistrate several times.
After the Wannian County magistrate was beaten, he hurriedly came to Li Yuanji's side and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, when will I go to the palace gate to collect people?"
Li Yuanji wanted to beat him up again.
This was the first time he had seen such a mean person.
However, Li Yuanji did not take action because Li Yuanji felt that this guy was a talent.
In the Tang Dynasty, there were not many people in official positions who could sacrifice their dignity.
Because the officials of the Tang Dynasty were all about character.
There are even fewer people who can do all kinds of dirty things in order to gain political achievements.
Although this guy didn't leave any name in the history books, and he wasn't famous among the princes, he was definitely a capable minister.
Even if this guy doesn't know how to test the 'test paper' given to him by the imperial court, he will still find a way to do it right for you.
Compared with those people who just sit on the corpse and hand over the "white paper", no matter how cheap this guy is, he is not ashamed.
"I'll go tomorrow."
Li Yuanji glared at the Wannian County magistrate and said angrily.
The magistrate of Wannian County was overjoyed and said: "Then I will go back and prepare now."
After saying that, he bowed and really ran back to get ready.
Wang Xu madly mocked the magistrate of Wannian County, bowed, and ran back to prepare.
After Wang Xu and Wannian County Magistrate left, Yang Miaoyan approached Li Yuanji and asked with a smile: "Alang summoned Wannian and Chang'an Magistrate here to ask them to solve the marriage problem of those novices?
How did it become that Alang was helping people from Wannian and Chang'an counties solve their marriage problems?"
Li Yuanji didn't quite understand why there was such a change.
After thinking for a while, he said: "Maybe I am too soft-hearted."
Li Yuanji really doesn't care what happens to the bachelors in Wannian and Chang'an counties.
After all, in this era where all the people are soldiers, capable people, those who dare to venture and fight, have already passed the battlefield and got everything they want, including wives.
The remaining bachelors were either the only ones in the family, or those who had avoided being recruited by the imperial court for various reasons, excuses, and connections.
The lone Dings couldn't say anything, but those who evaded conscription by the imperial court became singles and could not blame others.
The imperial court had given them many opportunities to become rich and powerful under the influence of Li Shimin, Li Xiaogong and others, but they were unwilling to do so. The poor deserved to be poor, and the bachelors deserved to be bachelors.
You can't ask a group of people who risk their lives for wealth to enjoy the same treatment as a group of people who do nothing.
So what's the point of risking one's life?
What Li Yuanji cares about is the women in Yeting Palace.
They were taken to the palace like trophies, the good-looking ones were picked away, and the rest had to wait for death in Yeting Palace.
From time to time, someone would go crazy while waiting for a long time, and then be beaten to death by the steward of Yeting Palace.
From Li Yuanji to the Tang Dynasty, more than a hundred maids have been killed with sticks in the Yeting Palace.
Li Yuanji felt that the father and son had no use for them. Keeping them in the palace to drive them crazy and then killing them with a cane was purely harming people.
So if he had the chance to rescue them and find them a home, Li Yuanji wouldn't mind lending a hand.
Yang Miaoyan blinked and stared at Li Yuanji, a little confused about Li Yuanji.
Sometimes Li Yuanji is cold, and sometimes he is compassionate.
Li Yuanji paid no attention to Yang Miaoyan's thoughts. After accompanying Yang Miaoyan on a tour of Jiulongtan Mountain, he returned to his residence and wrote a memorial to Li Yuan.
The content of the memorial is very simple. It accuses Li Yuan of trapping so many women in the palace and not using them for anything. It is slowing down the growth of the Tang Dynasty.
For this purpose, I also provided some data that I imagined out of thin air.
If you release five thousand maids in the palace, you will be able to marry five thousand bachelors. It is very likely that there will be two or three thousand bachelors in the coming year.
Loubiqut
Two to three thousand people, for Datang, meant that it had become stronger.
As a result, Datang will have two to three thousand more warriors and two to three thousand more taxes.
Although the exaggeration is a bit exaggerated, it is still true.
The reason why no one in the Tang Dynasty wrote to Li Yuan about this matter was not because they could not see it, but because all women included in the palace were the royal family's "private property."
It's ironic, but it's true.
So no one would write a letter to ask Li Yuan to damage his "private property".
But Li Yuanji dared.
After all, Li Yuan's property is his own family's property.
Anyway, his family has a big business. If he loses his family, Li Yuan will scold him at most, but he won't do anything to him.
After Li Yuanji finished writing the memorial, he sent someone to send it out.
Before the memorial entered the palace, a rumor flew into the palace first.
While taking a boat at the intersection of the Jingshui River and the Weishui River, someone picked up a piece of tortoise shell washed up on the shore.
There are two suns engraved on the tortoise shell.
It is impossible for the sky to have two days, so some people understood it as "two emperors", and eventually after many evolutions, it became "Er Lang is the emperor".
Then things started to boil inside and outside Chang'an City.
Because for some people who are optimistic about Li Shimin, this is a sign of destiny.
For some people who are optimistic about Li Jiancheng, this is a warning sign from heaven.
For some people who are not optimistic about anyone and just want to stand in the middle and fish, this is a sign of chaos.
The current internal enemy of the Tang Dynasty is Fu Gongyou.
When Fugongyou first rebelled, although his momentum was very strong, after arriving at Xiakou, he was taught how to behave by Zhou Faming, the general manager of Huangzhou.
Although Zhou Faming did not defeat Fugong You's army, he firmly blocked Fugong You at Xiakou.
An inconspicuous Zhou Faming could teach Fu Gongyou how to behave, so Li Xiuning, who commanded thousands of troops, could pin Fu Gongyou to the ground and ravage him repeatedly.
Therefore, there is no longer any threat within Datang.
Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin can let go and compete.
As soon as Li Yuan got the rumor, he immediately found someone from the Taishi Bureau to verify the authenticity of the rumor.
Today, there is no such institution as Qin Tian Jian, so the Tai Shi Bureau is in charge of all things of gods and ghosts.
When the people from the Taishi Bureau were trying to determine the authenticity of the rumors, Li Yuan issued an order to summon Li Xiaogong to return to the court.
When Li Yuanji's memorial was submitted to Li Yuan, Li Yuan approved it without thinking, and at the same time wrote a line of large characters on the memorial.
"Take good care of yourself and stop meddling in other people's business?"
After Li Yuanji read Li Yuan's reply, he put the memorial aside dumbfounded.
Ling Jing, who was sitting on his knees in front of Li Yuanji, listening to the roar of the waterfall, sighed: "The saint is very kind to your highness."
