Chapter 407 Conversation between Weng and his son-in-law
Reception room.
Qin Huaidao smiled and said nothing in the face of the question, took a few sips of tea, his sleepiness dissipated a little, and his thinking became much clearer. Seeing that Li Daozong was about to get angry, he said first: "Master Li is asking as the Minister of Rites.
Or are you asking as your father-in-law?"
Li Daozong was a little surprised. The same question, the same answer, and in what capacity they were asked, weren't they all the same?
But as expected of a famous general, he reacted very quickly. He suddenly thought of something, his face softened, and he asked: "In what capacity do you want me to ask you?"
The ball was mentioned again at Qin Huaidao's feet, but Qin Huaidao smiled indifferently: "If you ask as the Minister of Rites, I agree that I am not available. I will let someone arrange it soon. There is still one day, so there is time. If I ask as the father-in-law, my son-in-law
If you’re not going to do something grand, what kind of thing do you want to hear?”
"Tell me, why don't you prepare something big and special?" Li Daozong laughed as soon as he heard this. He lost his seriousness and indifference, and smiled very relaxedly and at ease, as if he had expected this.
Qin Huaidao saw that he was indeed a famous general. He had something in his mind, so communication would be easy. He went outside and signaled the guards to leave. No one was allowed to come within ten meters. He returned and gave a solemn salute: "My father-in-law, my son-in-law is polite."
Already."
Li Daozong was very satisfied with Qin Huaidao's gift, accepted it calmly, and said with a smile: "Sit down and chat, since you and I have become husband-in-law, there are some things that I originally wanted to talk about after the wedding, so why don't we talk about it today."
"Thank you, father-in-law!"
Qin Huaidao sat down. After all, his daughters were married, so he should be polite and polite as a junior. He organized his words and continued: "Master Yuezhang has made outstanding achievements in his life. He participated in many battles such as the attack on Liu Wuzhou, Wang Shichong, Eastern Turk, Tuyuhun, etc., and contributed to the great success of the Tang Dynasty.
He made illustrious military exploits during the unification of the dynasty and the expansion of territory, but his achievements were also greater than those of his master. He once embezzled the spoils of war and committed suicide, but was imprisoned by the Holy Emperor for corruption. He only came back last year. Now he is married to his son-in-law, who also has the same merit.
Lord Gao Zhen did not taint himself and even fought back. The Holy One is afraid of this. The marriage between the two families can be called a strong alliance. It is a good thing for you and me, but it is not a good thing for the Holy One."
"I'm very pleased that you can see through this layer. It's better than you. Tell me, what are you going to do?" Li Daozong smiled with satisfaction, holding on to his breath, with a contented look on his face.
Seeing this expression, Qin Huaidao knew that Li Daozong was also aware of the situation, and continued: "This wedding is not a big event, and there is no banquet. You and I can just sit down and have a few drinks by ourselves. We will not reject anyone who comes, just let it happen."
Of course, it shows that there is no intention to form cliques, in order to appease His Majesty. Of course, it also gives His Majesty an opportunity to reprimand him. There is no loss in scolding a few words, but if His Majesty can regain his majesty and eliminate suspicion, you and I will be much better off.
"
"That's the truth, but it's not enough."
"It is indeed not enough. Your Majesty is worried that you and I will become bigger." Qin Huaidao nodded solemnly, looked out the window, his eyes filled with wisdom, and said indifferently: "The best way is to hand over the rights. As long as I withdraw, both families can survive.
, and the Holy One will compensate you and let you and I live a good life, but we can’t do this.”
"Are you worried?"
Li Daozong was keenly aware of the deeper meaning. He stared at Qin Huaidao and asked bluntly: "What are you worried about?"
"Your Majesty is in poor health, I'm afraid..."
Li Daozong revealed at once that he was silent. The transfer of power often means bloody battles. The emperor's poor health will speed up the removal of obstacles and pave the way for his successor. He is the king of the county, has great achievements and is the leader of the royal family.
A certain amount of influence is an obstacle, so how can the hussar general in front of him not be an obstacle?
With lightning flashing in his mind, Li Daozong asked: "You can't quit, otherwise you won't even have the power to protect yourself. Your family and I will just sit there and wait for death. I can retire in spite of my illness. What do you think?"
It is undoubtedly the best choice for Li Daozong to withdraw from the power circle, but Qin Huaidao can't say this. Since Li Daozong wants to understand the pros and cons, he no longer hides it and says bluntly: "My father-in-law's withdrawal can calm the mind of the saint, at least within a year."
I will touch you and me, and one year is enough for my son-in-law to be prepared to protect himself. As long as he is alive, he will never let anyone go to his father-in-law's house. This is my son-in-law's promise."
"Very good. With these words, my trip was not in vain. Tell me, how will you arrange it for me?" Li Daozong was greatly relieved. As for Qin Huaidao's promise, Li Daozong had no doubts at all. Li Er wanted to marry his daughter to Qin Huaidao.
After that, I did a lot of investigation and research on Qin Huaidao, and found out that he was a trustworthy person.
A person who risks his life to fight for ordinary soldiers will not be bad to his family!
Qin Huaidao didn't know Li Daozong's calculations. He thought about the property in his hands. There were trustworthy people taking care of it and he couldn't hand it over easily. Only the school was the only one. He immediately said: "Zhang Yue, Qinjiazhuang Academy still lacks a mountain director.
I wonder if it’s okay?”
Shanzhang is an honorific title given to an elder who teaches in the mountains. He can also take charge of college affairs, which is similar to Jijiu. However, Jijiu is an official position, and Qinjiazhuang is a private school, so the title Jijiu cannot be used.
Li Daozong didn't know that Qinjiazhuang also had a private school, and asked with some surprise: "What is the situation of your private school? How many students are there now, and who is the teacher?"
Qin Huaidao said that the academy was a little proud and said with a smile: "Currently, we only accept the children of Qinjiazhuang, as well as the children of meritorious people who help the government. There are currently more than a hundred students, including food and accommodation. Mr. Wei Zheng is responsible for enlightenment, Fang Xuan
The elders taught Confucian classics, miscellaneous studies, etc., and recruited several people to assist. Mr. Li Jing is going to come over to take charge of martial arts. When his father-in-law comes over, he can decide what he wants to teach. After one year, he will be divided into classes, and he will choose voluntarily, mainly in medicine, finance, etc.
For professional classes such as agriculture, smelting, military, scientific research, etc., the textbooks are compiled by me personally and are five-year courses."
"You've learned a lot... aren't you afraid?" Li Daozong pointed at the top, secretly surprised in his heart, is he trying to rebel by playing such a big game?
Qin Huaidao understood the idea and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my father-in-law. The subjects he studied are all practical, which can improve production and promote progress. It is a great thing that benefits the country and the people. If you don't participate in the imperial examination, no one will become an official in the court, and there is no threat to the court."
When Li Daozong thought about it, it was true that no matter how big the game was, no one in the court would be vain, and the people in power would not worry. He was determined in his heart. If there was really any rebellion, it would be really difficult for him, the prince, to be caught in the middle.
Without any worries, Li Daozong agreed wholeheartedly.
Qin Huaidao smiled, who said there is no threat if no one serves as an official in the court?
Do you want to know how American chaebols played in later generations?
Financial war, understand the power of capital?
Of course, Qin Huaidao couldn't point it out, as long as people didn't offend me, it would be fine. The two talked in detail about the wedding two days later, and Li Daozong left with satisfaction.
Qin Huaidao asked He'er to be called over, gave some instructions, and then became the shopkeeper.
He'er gave the order, and the whole government started to move, decorating with lanterns, making large purchases, and preparing for the wedding banquet.
Qin Huaidao was completely indifferent to the upcoming marriage. He didn't understand Li Xueyan, and the marriage was granted. He had no sense of expectation and accomplishment of free love. After leaving the matter to He'er, the group focused on business.
First, I went to the industrial city for a tour. The production of paper, printing and other products was in good order, and the number of people began to expand. It was all acquaintances who brought acquaintances, and more than two people were required to vouch for it to make sure that there was no problem with their character.
In his spare time, Qin Huaidao met Zhao Shuwen in a room.
We haven’t seen each other for a long time. Looking at Qin Huaidao, Zhao Wenshu felt a little emotional, but more importantly, he was grateful. His original goal and now his benefactor were really a twist of fate. When he thought of Zhaojiacun moving out of his ancestral land and moving to Qinjiazhuang, everyone would live in Qingjiazhuang.
The brick and tile house has meat to eat every now and then, and the population is also increasing. It’s like living in paradise. He sincerely saluted: "Zhao Shuwen, a grassroots man, pays homage to the young master!"
As he spoke, he was really ready to kneel down and bow down, without any pretense.
Qin Huaidao supported him and said with a smile: "The man has gold under his knees. If he can't bear it, his life will be shortened."
"Thank you, Master, for everything you have given the people of Zhaojiacun today." Zhao Shuwen said sincerely.
"You're welcome, it's all the result of your own labor. I'm just giving you a chance, nothing more. Brother Xue has repeatedly praised you for being cautious, conscientious, and conscientious. I'm very pleased. Papermaking and printing need to be expanded in the future.
The scale is so large and the affairs are numerous that there can be no room for mistakes.”
"Please rest assured, young master, if there are any mistakes, the common people will be willing to be punished."
"If something goes wrong, your brain is not strong enough to recover the losses. Starting today, your salary will be adjusted. One hundred silver coins per month, half of the papermaking and printing bonuses will be given as year-end rewards. In addition, a team of people will be equipped for personal protection. This team of people will
It's up to you, Zhaojiacun, to choose from among the members of the village protection team."
Don't use it if you doubt it, don't doubt it if you employ it.
Zhao Shuwen heard that it was one hundred dollars a month, which was several times more than when he was a county magistrate. There was also a half-percent bonus at the end of the year. This was a huge pie, not to mention that there were people to protect the safety, and he also arranged for people from Zhaojia Village to be other than Qin.
The people in the family village have no intention of supervising at all, they are purely protective.
This great treatment, this unconditional trust and trust immediately brought tears to Zhao Shuwen's eyes, and he gave a solemn salute: "Young Master, treat the common people as a noble, and the common people will repay you as a noble. If you violate this oath, your heart will be pierced by ten thousand knives, and you will not be able to enter the ancestral land until you die."
, heaven and earth learn from it."
People in this era attach great importance to whether they enter the ancestral land after death. This is a serious oath.
Qin Huaidao saw that Zhao Shuwen was sincere in his service and was completely relieved.
