It is difficult for top aristocratic families to divide because they have formed their own unique family culture internally. This culture is difficult to break through gentle means, so they must be defeated before they can be divided.
The middle-level aristocratic families don't have such trouble. Even if they have their own unique aristocratic culture, they don't integrate their aristocratic family culture into the bones of the people like the top aristocratic families.
Therefore, after they are divided, it is difficult for them to miss the old clan and sacrifice everything for the old clan.
Therefore, we cannot shout and kill them, and there is no need to shout and kill them. Gentle differentiation methods are enough.
A few short stories about the children of middle-class families or declining families, who revitalized their families through military exploits and brought honor to their ancestors, are enough to make the children of their families scream and run to the army with their heads sharpened.
As long as they enter the military and are thousands of miles away from their families, it will be difficult for their families to influence them.
Under the influence of the imperial court, they can completely get rid of family control and become a cornerstone of the imperial court.
"Since His Highness already has some concerns in mind, I have no problem."
Ren Gui frowned, stood up and clasped his fists, showing no sign of joy or sorrow.
Li Yuanji laughed and said, "It seems that Ren Aiqing still has some opinions in her heart?"
Ren Gui did not hide it, and said openly: "Your Highness wants to use the Turks as a training ground to hone a large army that can run across the grassland. It is not possible to complete it overnight. It will consume a lot of food and grass."
I'm afraid it will reach one million, or even more.
With the current food reserves in various places in the Tang Dynasty, it can be supplied, but there is not much the imperial court can do."
The implication is that all the food is used to train troops and fight, and less can be used for development.
Although he agreed with the Tang Dynasty's proposal to conquer the Turks, it did not mean that he agreed to waste food and grass and give up the development of people's livelihood.
Li Yuanji shook his head and said in confusion: "In this way, I will ask people to negotiate with the envoys of Lin Yi State and ask them to provide us with 300,000 to 500,000 dan of grain every year, and then station it in Jiaozhou for promotion in various places.
Used for rice.
I will also ask the governor of Yangzhou to use part of Yangzhou's grain reserves every year to promote rice, what do you think?"
After Datang had a long-term food consumption project and its own food supply could not be supplied, it would just look for supplies from neighbors.
Anyway, there is a lot of food in Linyi, and there is still more than can be eaten.
Even after supplying the purchase orders shipped by sea, there is still a lot of surplus, and it is not a problem to sell another three to five million dan to Datang every year.
Datang traded with Lin Yi for real gold and silver, or the goods Lin Yi needed, and it was not an open robbery. I think the king who came to Lin Yi would be happy to do this transaction.
That is to say, everyone in the Tang Dynasty is now staring at the Turks.
If the great enemy of the Turks is not eliminated, everyone will feel uneasy, and some people who have enmity with the Turks will not feel happy either.
Otherwise, the Tang Dynasty would covet Linyi, a treasure land for grain production, let alone the southwest where poisonous insects and miasma spread, even on Mount Everest, and would send troops to try to conquer, annex, and absorb it.
For own use.
This is not conjecture, but fact.
Ren Gui, Pei Ju, Ma Zhou, and Wang Gui, who had not been in Jingzhou for a long time, saw the power of Linyi's rice seeds, and verified from many sources that Linyi could really grow a lot of rice by just throwing a handful of seeds, and he could also grow a lot of rice.
After achieving three crops a year, I have already coveted Lin Yi.
The reason why no one said anything was because they were all hiding it. They knew that the biggest enemy of the Tang Dynasty was the Turks, and it was impossible to distract Lin Yi.
The Tang Dynasty now does not have the appropriate army to drill into the forest to resist the poisonous insects, ferocious beasts and miasma to attack Linyi, nor does it have more warships to transport a large number of naval forces from the sea to attack Linyi.
Otherwise, several people would have already submitted a letter asking for a fight.
Ren Gui, who knew how to lead troops in war, would even take the initiative to ask for help.
After hearing what Li Yuanji said, Ren Gui's face softened completely. She didn't smile, but she wasn't as stiff as before.
"It's my luck that Your Highness is willing to accommodate me..."
When Chen Shuda saw that Ren Gui had been persuaded and made happy, he couldn't help but joked, "It's your fault too!"
Ren Gui was stunned for a moment, then awkwardly raised his hands and said, "Chen Pushe's words are reasonable. I offended you, and I beg your Highness to punish you."
If a minister does not act in accordance with the wishes of the person in power, but instead looks at the person in power and bargains with him, this is an offense.
Li Yuanji waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Now that we've talked about political affairs, isn't it time to talk about your personal affairs?"
Chen Shuda nodded and said: "Yes, it's time to talk about your impeachment by the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty. Aren't you at all panicked?"
Without waiting for Ren Gui to speak, Chen Shuda smiled cheerfully and said: "If it were me, I would have stayed at home in a panic and dared not go out."
Ren Gui didn't know whether Chen Shuda was praising him for being as stable as a mountain in trouble, or mocking his nerves. He glanced at Chen Shuda and said, "I'm sorry to bother you, Your Highness.
Since I no longer hinder the Tang Dynasty from conquering the Turks, I think His Highness the King of Hejian and others will not yell at me to kill me.
As for the impeachment of the three ministers and the censors of the Yushitai, I don't care yet."
Ren Gui had a calm expression on his face, as if after Li Xiaogong and others stopped making trouble for him, Yang Gongren and others would be completely powerless to do anything to him.
Did Li Yuanji know that the impeachment of Ren Gui was not the personal action of Yang Gongren and other officials, but the Hongnong Yang family and the Taiyuan Wang family were behind it.
What he had to deal with was not Yang Gongren and other officials, but the two giants, the Hongnong Yang family and the Taiyuan Wang family.
Li Yuanji couldn't help but remind him: "You have to be careful. There are people who are impeaching you this time, both openly and secretly. Don't be careless and fall into their trap."
Ren Gui still said nonchalantly: "They want to deal with me, so just let them come and I will follow. I want to see how many clowns will jump out."
Li Yuanji wanted to remind Ren Gui not to be careless, but looking at Ren Gui's appearance, he simply couldn't listen to his advice.
He didn't know where Ren Gui got the confidence to think that he was the opponent of the Hongnong Yang family and the Taiyuan Wang family.
You know, although the Ren family is also a big family, it is more than one and a half points behind the two behemoths, the Hongnong Yang family and the Taiyuan Wang family, and is no match for them at all.
Therefore, Ren cannot be his help at all. On the contrary, it may become his weakness.
If they can't take him down, they will operate on the Ren family, force him to rescue the Ren family, and then try to drain the fire under the cauldron, he will definitely be left in the cold.
"Your Highness, are you wondering why Ren Zhongshu is so confident and dares to compete with the power behind Yang Shangshu?"
Chen Shuda saw Li Yuanji's thoughts and asked with a smile.
Seeing that Chen Shuda had guessed his thoughts, Li Yuanji stopped hiding it and nodded openly.
Chen Shuda smiled heartily and said: "As long as King Hejian doesn't cause trouble for Ren Zhongshu, with His Highness you supporting him, Yang Gongren and the people behind Yang Gongren, what's the point?"
Li Yuanji was stunned for a moment.
My co-writing is Ren Gei’s biggest source of confidence?!
When Ren Gui heard Chen Shuda's words, although she didn't grin, the corner of her mouth could not help but evoke a smile.
It can be seen that he is in a good mood.
Suddenly being laughed at by two courtiers and being crushed by them in terms of IQ, Li Yuanji became a little unhappy. With a dark face, he waved his hands in disgust and said: "You can go down now!"
If you put down your dignity and argue with others, you may not get a good deal. It is better to stay out of sight.
"Hahaha……"
Chen Shuda laughed out loud.
Ren Gui also puffed like a deflated rubber ball.
The two people didn't wait for Li Yuanji to get angry, and they bowed happily and quickly exited the hall.
"Are these two so presumptuous?"
Li Yuanji looked at the two people's leaving figures and asked angrily.
After all, he is also the majestic Prince of the Supervisory State, the most tyrannical Prince Yong in the Tang Dynasty. He doesn’t want to lose face? Doesn’t he have majesty?
"Fine them both their salaries! Give them both a slap in the face!"
Li Yuanji returned to Wude Hall panting heavily. As soon as he entered the hall, he heard Yang Miaoyan admonishing him.
It's a pity that Yang Miaoyan was targeting the two eunuchs, not Chen Shuda and Ren Gui.
Otherwise, Li Yuanji might feel better.
Li Yuanji held back his anger and asked Yang Miaoyan, who was teaching the two eunuchs, "What did they do?"
Yang Miaoyan stared coldly at the two eunuchs kneeling on the ground and said without raising her head: "They are not committing crimes, they are seeking death!"
Seeing that Yang Miaoyan was unwilling to elaborate, Li Yuanji did not talk to Yang Miaoyan anymore, nor did he hinder Yang Miaoyan from exercising her rights as the mistress of Prince Yong's Mansion. Instead, he approached Wang Ruan and asked about the reason.
Wang Ruan hesitated at first, looking embarrassed to speak.
After Li Yuanji agreed to stay in her room for three nights, he quickly explained everything.
It turned out that the two eunuchs had no intention of being a man. After they gained a certain amount of authority, they began to want to be men. It was not enough to find a few maids in the palace who were interested in eating. They also set their sights on Cainu.
Although they were all Cai Nu that Li Yuan did not like, they were not something that the eunuchs could get involved with.
After they are carefully trained and trained, they will be rewarded by officials.
If the officials knew that the woman given to them by the royal family was having an affair with a eunuch, how could they not feel resentful and not have any objections to the royal family?
So they are violating a taboo.
That is to say, they haven't put it into action yet, they just made a few bold words, so Yang Miaoyan has no intention of killing them, but only fines their salary and slaps them with a ban.
Otherwise, they would have all been sent to the Ministry of Internal Affairs by now, and then executed by Liu Jun under the supervision of Liu Jun.
