Cheng Motou and Lao Hei were still arguing, but the people around them pretended not to notice.
When entering the palace gate, Li Jing came over. After first paying homage to the cabinet master as a junior, he said to Li Yuanxing: "There is an urgent matter, and I would like to hear your opinion, Wu Lang."
"Senior Brother Yao, just say it!" Li Yuanxing said in his heart that there were no outsiders here, so there was no need to avoid anything.
Li Jing said: "To make a long story short, I won the Datian city you want, and I also won the seaport. But these two places are too easy to capture, so I won't mention them. What I want to say is, there are two places over there.
This is a problem that will cause trouble in the future!"
"What Brother Yao said is that the Japanese are ambitious and don't abide by the rules at all. Also, it is impossible for them to cooperate with our Tang army. The last one is that when they don't abide by military rules and rob the loot, it's like
..." Li Yuanxing was thinking about what words he should use to describe it.
Li Jing said: "Just like the Huns back then!"
Li Jing used his words very cleverly. He did not mention the Turks, only the Huns.
Then Li Jing said: "It seems that someone has reported this matter to the Prince of Qin's Mansion. Wu Lang must have a way to deal with it!"
"No, I guessed it. Let me think about the method!" Li Yuanxing really needed to think about it.
But at this moment, the cabinet master suddenly turned his head: "That General Li!" The cabinet master named Heishui Mohe was a fourth-rank Zhonglang general, and of course he was also a general.
Hearing the greeting from the cabinet master, the general ran over quickly and gave a military salute of the Tang Dynasty: "Please give me your orders, Emperor Xian!"
"The methods you have for training eagles and wolf dogs, tell Li..." The cabinet master didn't know what to call him, so Li Yuanxing said, "Tell Li Zhongshu about it."
Li Jing quickly said: "The Emperor Xian can just call me the pharmacist!"
Li Jing, Li Yaoshi, the military god of the Tang Dynasty. The cabinet master had great respect in his heart. He immediately said: "When the pharmacist listens to the methods of boiling eagles and training wolf dogs, the small problem of the Japanese will no longer be a problem."
After he finished speaking, he motioned for Li Yuanxing and him to leave first. He believed that Li Jing was definitely not a soft-hearted person.
If he were to be replaced by Li Yuanxing, there would definitely be some Huairou thoughts.
Boil the eagle! Li Jing already had some ideas in his mind. What is a wolf dog? That is to beat a wolf into a dog, and still keep the wild nature of the wolf. After hearing this, Li Jing understood clearly and couldn't help but said: "A certain whip is too
Soft."
"Li Zhongshu, to deal with the fierce ones, use knots on the whip. If it's more powerful, add steel thorns!"
"Okay, good idea!" Li Jing nodded with satisfaction.
General Li from Heishui Mohe added: "If Li Zhongshu is an eagle, I will catch one for you the next time he returns to his hometown on military leave. However, an eagle needs to survive on its own to be a good eagle. Others will always be so inferior."
Some."
"Okay, okay, thank you in advance. I'll go to a certain house another day and you can take some of the water warfare books!"
"Thank you Li Zhongshu!"
On the other side, Li Yuanxing said to the cabinet master: "Isn't it too harsh? Let them learn culture for no more than three years, and they will be disciplined. What's more..." Li Yuanxing wanted to persuade him again, but the cabinet master whispered to Li Yuanxing.
: "Do you know what the current population of Washima is?"
Li Yuanxing thought for a while: "According to historical records, there should be more than two million people."
"Yes, I have studied it in detail. During this period, Japan Island has not yet started the Great Unification War. Yamato Kingdom alone has a population of nearly five million. The territory occupied by the bear attack and Hayato has at least a million people. Between them
The wars are the key to population decline. This does not include the Eni people. Historical statistics are actually based on 700 AD. At that time, the Tang Dynasty had a population of almost 40 million, and the Japanese unification wars
For many years, there were only two million."
Li Yuanxing took a breath of cold air.
"Grandpa, he has half the population of our Tang Dynasty."
"It's scary!" The cabinet master smiled and asked back, and Li Yuanxing nodded numbly. The Japanese island is only a little bigger. They have a population of more than six million. In the early years of Zhenguan, there are no detailed statistics in the Tang Dynasty. There are about one
About 13 million. If calculated as half of the population, the Japanese are likely to be a formidable enemy.
Li Er went into the palace to change his clothes just now. Now he was waiting on the high platform. He watched Li Yuanxing and the cabinet master talking all the way. He came up to him and asked with a smile: "What are Wu Lang and uncle talking about?"
Li Er is the emperor, and it is not appropriate to take the initiative to call another person emperor.
Li Yuan called the cabinet master his uncle, which was considered appropriate, so Li Er called him uncle Cheng by the way, which also meant being close.
"Grandpa said that the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty did not cooperate well in the Battle of Anshi, and their combat power was not fully utilized. Therefore, I planned to train some soldiers myself. I said that my red blood was very strong, but grandpa said that I was the best choice for the red blood.
The best thing is to train 10,000 ordinary soldiers well, and the red blood may not be an opponent!"
Li Er laughed and helped the cabinet master to sit down.
"Uncle, you can deploy the soldiers of the Sixteenth Guards and choose the generals. The fifth man of food, grass and weapons will definitely not be half as old as you."
"Soldiers are valuable!" the cabinet master responded.
Elite troops are good, and Li Er also likes elite troops. Elite troops mean less logistics, less supplies, and easier command.
"But..." the cabinet master said again: "It will harm the peace of the world to fight and kill people. Yuanxing only knows how to fight and attack cities and occupy land. Apart from these, only promoting agriculture and popularizing education can be counted as
Although there are some things that people in the Tang Dynasty can do, there are still many things they can do, such as cultivating their moral character, which is better than playing mahjong!"
Li Yuanxing smiled dryly. In such a formal occasion, there really weren't many people who dared to criticize him.
Li Er also smiled. The cabinet master's words made him feel very cordial and he was also thinking about Datang.
"Let's do this. Yuanxing will pay for it and hold a great tournament in Chang'an!"
"Great national player!" Li Er was a little confused, because the term national player would not appear until at least thirty years later. Li Yuanxing explained: "Go, chess. The best person will be awarded the title of national player."
Li Er suddenly realized: "Okay, this is an excellent suggestion. According to ancient records, the game of Go originated from the game between two people after the war, but it coincides with the theory of yin and yang of heaven. There are many nobles in the Tang Dynasty who are good at Go. However, in the Chang'an competition,
It is also a very kind thing. Wulang must not be stingy and give more money."
"Let Mingyue do it, she can make some money back."
Li Yuanxing responded with a smile on his face.
Wu Zhao and Li Lanshan, who had just entered the palace and were about to take their seats, had been paying attention here. As soon as they heard Li Yuanxing mention her, they ran over quickly: "What happened to me again? Did the bad guy Li Yuanxing say something about me again?"
of bad words."
"Chang'an is planning to hold a national championship!" Li Yuanxing explained.
"Okay, leave it to me. I'll donate 800 guan to Chang'an Charity Medical Center!" When Wu Zhao heard about such a good thing, he would definitely grab it.
Li Lanshan didn't know, but just said: "There are records that Go originated from Rong Chenggong. At first, there were only nine vertical and horizontal lines. By the time of Jin Dynasty, it was seventeen lines. The most perfect result of Go should be nineteen lines."
Li Er was surprised. He knew Go. In the pre-Sui Dynasty, the nineteen-line method was already played, and the seventeen-line method was still maintained. The origin of Go has always been said to be in the Warring States Period. This theory of origin actually
Even earlier.
Li Yuanxing said with a smile: "If you talk too much, I'm afraid the historians of the Tang Dynasty will argue with you!"
"I'm not afraid of debate, but I don't have much evidence."
"Lanyue also knows Go?" Li Er asked curiously.
Li Lanshan nodded: "Replying to Brother Huang, I don't dare to say that I am proficient. But I have some experience. I just suggest that if there is a national player competition, then we should first set the rules. Go will be divided in order. Naturally, the first player will let the latter count the pieces. This
It's a fair game. Otherwise, drawing black would be an advantage."
When Li Lanshan was speaking, Eunuch Gao had already stood aside and reported during the break: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, the banquet can start at any time."
"Okay, Lan Yue, Mingyue is responsible for the affairs of the great national players. Wu Lang, let's have a banquet!" Li Er immediately ordered, and everyone hurriedly took their seats.
The square in front of the main hall became completely quiet when Li Yuanxing stood on the steps in front of the hall.
"When the banquet begins, I and my brother will serve a dish first. My brother has ordered that all male members of the Tang Dynasty royal family, and male members over ten years old and above from earls, must eat this dish. It's a waste.
Anyone caught with one grain will be severely punished!"
The drums started beating, solemn drumming.
The little eunuchs ran quickly, each with a tray in their hands.
"In spring, when the fields are still full of green, there is no food left in the house. In order to survive, the people will cook everything they can eat. But there are still people who starve to death. The emperor's brother today issued a food tax exemption
I just hope that next spring, no one in the Tang Dynasty will starve to death again."
The contents of the tray have been placed on many people's desks.
Without exception, those who had this dish in front of them were men from the royal family and nobles.
It's dark and makes people feel uncomfortable just looking at it.
"This is not the most unpalatable, but for the nobles of the Tang Dynasty, it can no longer be called food. It is steamed with wheat bran, wild vegetables, bean dregs, and aged broken rice. This is among the common farmers.
Among them, rich families can eat. Ordinary farmers can guarantee two yuan a day to their children, which means their families have enough food."
Li Yuanxing spoke slowly.
"Come here!" Empress Changsun suddenly shouted, which startled Li Yuanxing.
"Give me a copy. All members of the Tang royal family, regardless of gender, will have a copy when they are six years old or above." After giving the order, Empress Changsun said, "As a member of the royal family, who does not know the sufferings of the world, how can he be qualified to enjoy the wealth of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
"
Before Empress Changsun had finished speaking, Li Yuanxing winked at the people below. The meaning was obvious. Someone had to step forward to flatter her at this time. Otherwise, if it was a cold start, it would not only hurt Empress Changsun's face, but also the other's.
There is the face of Li Er and the state body of the Tang Dynasty.
A currently written tribute of about 300 words was read out by a clerk in the Qin Palace with Li Yuanxing's tacit consent.
"The royal family cares about the people, it should be a great good deed." Wang Jishan, the Minister of Rites, came out to carry a bridge. Li Yuanxing was full of thanks. In fact, Li Yuanxing did not dare to say that he could eat this food.
There is no salt and it is very hard. When I swallow it, I feel like my throat is about to die.
But Li Er and Li Yuanxing ate it without changing their expressions. The ones who really suffered were the children of the royal family who had enjoyed wealth since childhood, and the children of nobles. The nobles who had truly experienced the wars in the early Tang Dynasty had suffered. (
