Section 155: The Second of the Three Kingdoms on the Peninsula]
[Please give me a monthly pass, please give me a monthly pass, sing folk songs and shout, please give me a monthly pass]
——
The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty issued an imperial edict regarding the establishment of Tianying Pavilion and the Imperial Remonstrance Court.
Not only was the imperial edict issued, but it was also circulated throughout the Tang Dynasty in a formal document.
This is a kind of assistance and a mutual concession between the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the imperial power of the Tang Dynasty and the top gentry of the Tang Dynasty. It is only the top gentry.
For ordinary nobles, this was a huge shock. How much grain tax was and how much each family had to pay. For nobles who had never paid grain taxes, this was a huge shock.
Ordinary nobles had no way to resist.
Because the seven major aristocratic families have made friends, the Xinxing nobles have made friends, even the Li family, the royal relatives and nobles have also made friends.
Ordinary nobles had no choice.
Baiying Pavilion!
A place that makes the nobles crazy, but it also has nothing to do with the lower-class nobles. It only gives the lower-class nobles a chance, but it is still the same as King Qin said, there is no lower limit for merit, and there is no upper limit for merit!
If you want to become a nobleman and enjoy high privileges, you need to pay.
In terms of the seven surnames and ten families, the royal family, royal relatives and other powerful people, the gentry itself is noble, so naturally the fewer the better. Those low-level gentry who are just waiting to die will not be able to produce an official for several generations.
If so, then become common people, you are not worthy of becoming soldiers!
Li Yuanxing suggested that the word "noble" should be valuable.
The Tang Dynasty has given you privileges, and you must be qualified to enjoy this privilege. Whether the Tang Dynasty is in internal affairs or foreign wars, if you, as a noble, cannot set an example for the world, then become a common people.
This reason, with the selective approval of the gentry class, can be regarded as accepted.
The gentry were very satisfied with the Baiying Pavilion, which could manage the Tang Dynasty, and regarded the Admonition Court, which could admonish the innocent, as just throwing a sweet date to the common people.
Scholars from poor families are also very satisfied. They have no say in the court, and gaining the right to say is an achievement.
Li Yuanxing was sitting in his mansion, waiting for his guests to arrive.
Wei Heizi, as Tiance's general and governor Shi, was with him.
"Your Highness actually gave up the power in the court, but it was smart!" Wei Heizi's words seemed to be comforting, not like praise.
Li Yuanxing closed his eyes: "Wei Changshi! You have a seat in Baiying Pavilion, it seems to have been pre-determined. But you don't need to represent General Ce's Mansion, you can represent yourself."
"I don't understand!"
"You will understand. After you have participated in several Baiying Pavilion discussions, you will definitely understand!" Li Yuanxing continued with an inscrutable look: "Admiral Tiance's Mansion will never express its position on anything.
."
Wei Zheng seemed to understand.
Li Yuanxing will not take a stand on anything, but when he takes a stand, it will be unanimously approved. Before taking a stand, Li Yuanxing will definitely use his interests to negotiate with the main people, and then those who are dissatisfied will be suppressed. In other words, Li Yuanxing
Once such a thing is done, it must be a major event that requires the efforts of the whole country.
King Qin of the Tang Dynasty was too lazy to take care of trivial matters.
But why do I understand it after participating in the discussion?
Wei Zheng still didn't understand.
At this time, someone reported that envoys from Baekje, Goryeo, and Silla had arrived. These three envoys came to the Tang Dynasty to congratulate the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty on his accession to the throne. However, they did not expect that the Tang Dynasty would defeat the Turks.
Already.
Therefore, they have submitted invitations to see King Qin of the Tang Dynasty three times in a row.
A very young man only in rumors, but he had full power to plan the war against the Turks, and he must have calculated all his actions beforehand. At this time, the Great Turk Jieli Khan was being sent to Chang'an City in a cage to show off to the Tang Dynasty.
The majesty of the emperor.
Baekje, Goryeo, and Silla were experiencing constant civil wars.
But they clearly knew that the neighbor of the Tang Dynasty was very scary, much scarier than the previous Sui Dynasty.
After entering Admiral Tiance's Mansion, two personal guards led the way to Li Yuanxing's reception room.
Wei Zheng, who was sitting under Li Yuanxing in the room, was about to get up, but when he saw that Li Yuanxing was motionless, still leaning on the chair with his eyes slightly closed, Wei Zheng reminded him in a low voice: "Your Highness, the three envoys are here!"
"I know!" Li Yuanxing still didn't move.
Wei Zheng didn't understand what Li Yuanxing was going to do, so he just sat there and didn't move.
After the three envoys were led into the house, the guards who led the way withdrew. Li Yuanxing sat there with his eyes slightly closed. Wei Zheng was a little restless. This was an envoy, and he should be treated with courtesy.
The three envoys were also confused by the situation in front of them.
The atmosphere in the room was extremely embarrassing. The three envoys didn't know how to deal with it. At least they came to the Tang Dynasty to share the honor and disgrace. The Korean envoy couldn't help but said: "Is this the way to treat guests in the Tang Dynasty?"
"Come, let's see you off!" Li Yuanxing said lightly, but his body didn't move at all.
At that moment, several personal guards came in: "Three envoys please!"
What is this? The three envoys were completely unable to understand. The Silla envoy hurriedly took a step forward: "Your Highness, King Qin, why is this? We are here for the friendship between the two countries, why are you? But you are so rude!"
Li Yuanxing then opened his eyes: "Friendship, I have never known what kind of friendship the Tang Dynasty has with you. Why don't you teach me a lesson? Where is the friendship between the two countries? You asked to see me, and I allowed you to see me.
, this is the courtesy of my king, I don’t know what is rude about me?”
The three envoys were all choked so hard that they were speechless for a moment.
Wei Zheng finally understood why Li Yuanxing asked him to accompany him when he received the envoys from the Three Kingdoms. Originally, he asked him to be a peacemaker. He felt helpless, but he still said: "Three envoys, please sit down, come and have tea!" Then he said
He said to Li Yuanxing: "We are guests from afar. Your Highness might as well listen to the intentions of the three envoys!"
"Okay, sit down!" Li Yuanxing waved lazily.
Is this a show of force? The three envoys all felt it was ridiculous, but Wei Zheng didn't think so. When Li Yuanxing really struck a ruthless hand, he was definitely the kind who asked you to chop yourself with a knife before you understood what was happening.
Therefore, this is definitely not ridiculous, but Li Yuanxing has murderous intentions against Silla, Baekje, and Goryeo.
The Sui Dynasty was defeated by Goryeo.
Even if the Tang Dynasty destroyed the Sui Dynasty and established the Tang Dynasty, the Sui Dynasties were also Han people, so they have the same roots.
Tea was served and snacks were placed. The Silla envoy said: "We are here for peace and hope to have more exchanges with the Tang Dynasty!"
"After all, what do you want? Technology, money and food. Or the seeds of my immortal food!" Li Yuanxing said tepidly.
"Our country is not the beggar of the Tang Dynasty!" the Korean envoy shouted angrily.
Li Yuanxing waved his hand: "You can go!" Then he said to the Silla envoy: "Your Silla deputy envoy is still in my prison. Don't act stupid. I like smart people. You want Tang Corn's
Seeds are fine, but I want to know, what will you give in exchange?"
After hearing this, the Korean envoy sat there motionless again.
Li Yuanxing smiled contemptuously and looked at the Koryo envoy. The Koryo envoy blushed instantly. He wanted to leave for the sake of face, but he was more afraid. He was afraid that Silla had obtained the seeds of Tang Dynasty corn, but Goryeo had not. The yield had already been
It is said that it has become a deity, and the yield per acre is a thousand catties.
Within a few years, Silla's wealth frightened Goryeo.
Baekje is too small and cannot fight against Goryeo if it is not united with Silla, so Baekje has the lowest say.
"We, Silla, are willing to form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty!" the Silla envoy said loudly.
Li Yuanxing smiled: "Go back and think about it carefully and come up with something real. If I hear such boring lies again, I will never see you again. Go talk to Honglu Temple!"
After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, he stood up and walked to the back hall.
"Qin, His Highness the King of Qin!" the Silla envoy shouted, but Li Yuanxing ignored him at all.
Wei Zheng was thinking quickly in his mind at this time, what did Li Yuanxing want? What did Qin King Li Yuanxing care about in Silla, Baekje, and Goryeo? Wei Zheng couldn't guess that Li Yuanxing didn't tell him in advance, but it didn't affect Wei Zheng's decision to give these three things.
A messenger reminds me.
"His Royal Highness the King of Qin has not picked out any treasures that can tempt him from the treasure house of the Tang Dynasty Palace, so you don't have to think about mundane things. Please come!" Wei Zheng was also seeing off guests, but he was much gentler.
The envoys from Silla, Goryeo, and Baekje left with some disappointment.
Later, Wei Zheng found Li Yuanxing in the back garden.
Li Yuanxing was chewing a straw stick and watching two mice fighting over fruits in the garden.
Wei Zheng came to Li Yuanxing and said, "Your Highness, they have left. I don't understand why you agreed to give them fairy food like Tang Corn?"
"It depends on how you plant corn. If you know how to plant it, you can grow it up to two thousand catties per acre in a year. But if you don't know how to plant it, you will have to plant it in the field for three consecutive years, and there will be no harvest in the third year. And the field will not be harvested.
Even if it is destroyed and nothing grows, I believe that if they plant it, it will be easier for my army when there is no harvest in three years! As for the destroyed fields, I have a way to restore them.
!”
Li Yuanxing's calculations were very deep.
Wei Zheng shook his head: "This time, Your Highness may make a mistake!"
"Why?" Li Yuanxing didn't understand.
Wei Zheng said: "Your Highness, the Turks suddenly offered something that you have no idea about. Do you dare to fully cultivate it in the Tang Dynasty? You know, the former Sui Dynasty conquered Goryeo three times, and we in the Tang Dynasty will not let go of Goryeo. This is a mortal enemy. It's just that
It seems to be doing well on the surface right now, partly because the Tang Dynasty has powerful Turkic enemies, and Goryeo wants to unify the peninsula!"
"That makes sense. It seems that I really made a miscalculation this time!" Li Yuanxing laughed self-deprecatingly.
Wei Zheng also smiled: "Your Highness, there is no need to blame yourself. I believe that within five years, Goryeo will become a vassal!"
"Wrong, I don't need Goryeo to become a vassal. I want to make it a state of the Tang Dynasty. There is a way that I can't make a mistake. They will definitely give you a heavy gift, just accept it. They just want to ask, I
What do you want to change?"
Wei Zheng asked doubtfully: "What does Your Highness want to exchange from Goryeo?" (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
