"The prince studies government affairs, starting from hearing lawsuits. Huaiyu, please give me more guidance."
After the meeting, the emperor deliberately kept Wu Huaiyu as his attendant. In addition to him, there were also prime ministers Xiao Yu and Hou Junji who also had no specific responsibilities.
Sun Wuji, the eldest uncle of the country, was overjoyed. He thought that Xiao Yu, Wu Huaiyu, and Hou Junji would all come back to pay homage to the prime minister, and he would also have a chance.
But in the end, the emperor still didn't give him any official position.
They are also servants to the emperor, but the other three have no official positions but have the title of prime minister. Changsun Wuji is not the case, and his mentality is explosive.
"Follow the Holy Order."
"Next year Chengqian will be officially crowned. Now he will start hearing lawsuits and gradually get involved in government affairs."
The emperor glanced at Changsun Wuji, who had been sitting there with his head bowed and silent.
"Auxiliary engine,"
"I am here,"
Li Shimin looked at his confidant brother-in-law. The past three years of neglect had indeed made this brother-in-law more restrained and calm. He was not as sharp as before. However, he also knew that he had always wanted to come back. Recently, the officials
The chaos was all caused by the wrestling between him and Fang Xuanling.
"I have recently written a new poem, called Wei Feng Fu, which I specially give to you."
The chamberlain brought a scroll, and the emperor asked him to unfold it.
On the silk scroll is Emperor Feibai's calligraphy,
"There is a majestic phoenix, resting in the morning sun. It swims in the purple mist in the morning and drinks the mysterious frost in the evening. It has long experience and is used to lift the Han, and it soars far away from the violent sky..."
It is a long poem, well written, and the emperor's Fei Bai calligraphy is somewhat like the true biography of the two kings. It is graceful and charming, which makes the calligraphy more colorful.
The son of Changsun Wuji was kicked out of the house by his elder brother when he was young, but he still read a lot of books, unlike Hou Junji who could write "The Joy of Nongzhang" into "The Joy of Nongzhang".
The first few sentences of this poem, about a powerful phoenix, are actually talking about Li Shimin himself. There is a powerful phoenix, which draws its wings toward the rising sun and wanders in the lavender mountain mist in the morning.
At night, he drinks Xuan Shuang to cure his thirst. He spirals up with the strong wind, reaches the high altitude and flies far away. When he flies to the west, the mountains and rivers become pale, and when he flies to the east, the sun and moon shine. He transforms into a big roc.
In the north, he can teach birds in the south. In order to eliminate the troubled times, he came down at the right time, and in order to create a prosperous age, he showed his talents.
It can be seen that Li Shimin is quite narcissistic.
Wu Huaiyu felt that this self-comparison was quite good. Could it be that Li Erfeng came from this?
Continuing to read on, I wrote a few more sentences about myself being jealous because of my great achievements, and the people who were jealous of me were my relatives. Villains spoke ill of me. These people themselves are very despicable, and they also slander sages.
Design a trap to frame you,
He was in a very dangerous situation and almost lost his life.
I'm lucky enough to meet a gentleman, and we support and rely on each other, so we come here at lightning speed to sweep away the scum and scum.
The gentleman I was lucky enough to meet was naturally Changsun Wuji.
Thanks to your help, I can feel proud and fly to the sky again.
At the end of the poem, Chang Fu specifically stated that I will never forget your contribution. It is all because of you that I am what I am today. I will report to you well that our monarchs and ministers will start well and end well, and your virtue will last forever.
"The feeling of repaying favors is strengthened, and the ambition of repaying merits can only be announced. It is not easy to do it when you know the difficulty, but you have already finished your work after thinking about it. Let the virtuous people celebrate it, and spread it through thousands of leaves."
Li Shimin personally recited Wei Feng Fu and presented it to his aggrieved uncle.
As Changsun Wuji listened, tears welled up in his eyes. It was not a pretense, it was real. Listening to this majestic poem, it seemed that he had returned to those years when we fought side by side and slept together.
"His Majesty,"
Changsun Wuji was speechless and bowed down directly.
Li Shimin helped him up and hugged him affectionately, "Assistant machine, your body has been getting better recently. Please help me share some of my worries."
The emperor worshiped the eldest son Wuji as the crown prince's Taibao.
"I would also like to worship you as Sikong,"
Changsun Wuji hurriedly declined, "If a foreign relative serves as the Third Duke, it will inevitably lead to criticism from the Holy Lord's personal relatives, and I dare not accept it."
"Assistant machine, the criteria for appointing officials are based on talent and virtue. When I was the King of Qin, you were my right-hand man. With your assistance, I was able to clear up the world and rule the world. With your achievements, talents, and reputation, I am completely
If you are qualified for the position of the Three Lords, you should not refuse anymore."
Changsun Wuji bowed to him again and did not dare to accept the post of Sikong.
In the Tang Dynasty, only one minister with a different surname worshiped Sikong, Pei Ji, and he is still living in exile in Jingzhou.
After three years of neglect and sudden favor, Changsun Wuji was really flattered, and even the grievances in his heart were gone.
Wu Huaiyu watched from the side and sighed that Li Shimin was quite good at it. Isn't this Zhao Guogong from PUA? He was cold first and then hot.
But if you think about it carefully, even if Li Shimin first extended the post of Sun Wuji, Crown Prince Taibao, to the third division of the East Palace, and then wanted to worship Sikong, the third prince, he still did not relent and let Sun Wuji return to the post of prime minister, which shows that the emperor still had a trick up his sleeve.
There are two monarchs and ministers. One is bestowed with the power of majesty and phoenix and is granted the title of Three Dukes and Three Grand Princes, while the other is desperately trying to resign.
In the end, Changsun Wuji took over as the crown prince's Taibao, held the Wei Feng Fu in both hands, and the emperor also temporarily withdrew the title of Three Dukes.
The monarch and his ministers embraced each other again, and the two uncles' affection was enviable to others.
Hou Junji stood in the corner, looking at Wu Huaiyu secretly. He now worships the prime minister with the title of General Youwei, but his title of General Youwei is now empty and he no longer presides over Youwei. His gums are aching.
.
Dentures made of precious jade always made him feel uncomfortable.
Looking at Wu Huaiyu, Hou Junji felt angry.
Wu Huaiyu sensed this, turned around and looked at each other, their eyes met. Hou Junji looked back expressionlessly. He did not dare to offend Wu Huaiyu easily anymore, but this grudge was completely forged.
He thought silently in his heart, don't let me seize the opportunity, don't fall into my hands.
When leaving the palace, there was a deer tied to the back of the carriage. Wu Huaiyu, Hou Junji, Xiao Yu and Changsun Wuji each gave one as a gift from the emperor.
Changsun Wuji probably won't be able to sleep tonight.
The prince's Taibao is one level higher than Wu Huaiyu's Prince's Young Master. One is the Third Master of the East Palace and the other is the Third Young Master of the East Palace. However, Wu Huaiyu is the prime minister, and Changsun Wuji has not yet entered the political affairs hall. None of them have other duties, but Changsun Wuji has not yet entered the political affairs hall.
Although Ji was powerful, he was still subject to many restrictions and could only intervene in the affairs of the DPRK through his family members, old marriages and other relationships.
However, this can be regarded as an appeasement to Changsun Wuji and let him calm down. This can also be seen as the emperor is still jealous and guarding against Changsun Wuji, but the emperor wants to introduce the new two-tax policy. At this time, he appeases Changsun Wuji and does not let him.
There's chaos in the center.
A smart person like Changsun Wuji could actually see that this sealing also meant a warning. If he didn't understand the current affairs and continued to mess around, the emperor might take action to punish him.
The young emperor has mature skills,
It was obviously a warning, but instead it was a reward.
In fact, the heroes mentioned in the "Wei Feng Fu" are not only Changsun Wuji, but also Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Qin Qiong, Wei Chigong, Hou Junji and other close heroes of the Qin Palace.
It depends on whether Changsun Wuji can understand the emperor's intention and cooperate well.
"When I return to Longqiao tomorrow, I will take this deer with me to replenish Aye's health."
After returning home, Huaiyu told Fan Xuanfu that he had asked for leave from the emperor and was going to Sanyuan to harvest wheat. Of course, the legitimate reason was to go to the countryside to do some field research to see the grassroots conditions for implementing the two taxes.
Li Shimin agreed, and the prince requested that he also go to the countryside to investigate, and the emperor also agreed.
Huaiyu spent these days behind closed doors at home, and Lao Wu and his wife also rushed back to Chang'an from Longqiao. The old man lived a very comfortable life in the countryside. When he heard that his son had an accident, he rushed over in a hurry. Fortunately, it was okay. He stayed in Yongxingfang for a few days, and then
He hurried back and said it was time to harvest wheat at home.
Lao Wu likes life in the countryside,
Previously, Wu Huaiyu's great achievements in the Northern Expedition were changed to the title of Duke of Jin, and only the true title of 100 households was added. The emperor also promoted Lao Wu from Bo to Wenshuihou, and Lao Wu even took in two concubines to celebrate.
"It's just in time for Shi Yilang's 100-day banquet," Mr. Fan said with a smile.
When he first came to conceive Yu, the Wu family had two sons and four daughters, which made him a total of seven children, one wife and one concubine. But four or five years later, Lao Wu actually gave birth to eight more sons and seven daughters. Although their fighting ability was not as good as that of the old patriarch Shi Leng, they still had
It also makes you stronger with age.
"The most popular products sold by our Qianjintang are Wuzi Shouxian Fang, Wuzi Yanzong Pills, Liuwei Dihuang Pills, Shizi Zhenjing Pills, several prescriptions, together with Gecko Ginseng Antler Wine, Polygonatum Aphrodisiac Wine, Baishou Changchun Wine, etc.
All kinds of medicines and wines are very popular,”
The old Wu family has a secret recipe from the Immortal family, which is a fact that can produce many children and grandchildren, and it has long been recognized by everyone. You can see that each of the Wu family is more fertile than the other.
The former Sinong Qing, Xuancheng County Duke Shi Leng, is over 70 years old. He gave birth to three sons this year. This old man has given birth to more than 70 sons and daughters in total. Especially in the past five years, 30 have been born.
Multiple.
The Duke of Jin's father, Wenshuihou Warrior Ke, also gave birth to fifteen more children in four years, and he was over sixty years old.
The most astonishing thing is that Samurai Ke's main wife, Wu Liu, who is nearly sixty years old, unexpectedly had a son this year, and gave birth to an eleventh son for Samurai Ke.
And with the birth of Jiangning County Lord Wu Qiongying, Wu Huaiyu now has fifteen children each, giving birth to thirty children in five years. Even though he now has one wife, nine concubines and eighteen concubines, his efficiency is still amazing.
Especially in the past few years of pregnancy and childbirth in the old Wu family, we have never heard of miscarriage, stillbirth, or death soon after birth. Even Zhou Guogong warrior Xun gave birth to five more children. The one who was in his forties married into the Wu family as a second wife, and even
Yang, who had given birth to three daughters, finally gave birth to a son for the warrior Xun.
At the beginning, the warrior Xun originally had four sons, but at Takechu, two of his sons died in infancy.
The Wu family’s astonishing fertility rate is recognized by the people of Chang’an as being due to Wu Huaiyu’s possession of Xiaoyaozi’s secret elixir. Samurai Lengko has publicly declared many times that the five sons’ secret elixir was powerful. It is said that even Qin Qiong has been suffering from injuries and illnesses over the years and has been in poor health.
Unfortunately, after using Wu Huaiyu's prescription, she gave birth to three more babies in five years.
Other Xun families, such as Cheng Yao Jinniu Jinda and others who are good friends with the Wu family, are said to have obtained prescriptions in recent years and are also prospering.
People in the Tang Dynasty valued heirs, and many children meant good fortune.
Wujia Qianjintang's business is booming now, and the best-selling products are these pills and wines that nourish the kidneys, nourish essence, and strengthen yang.
Huaiyu couldn't help but be shocked when he thought that Wu Liu, at his age, actually gave birth to an eleventh brother for him. He remembered that when he first met Wu Liu, she was so old that she was not presentable, but now she could still give birth to a child.
The Yang family in their forties can still give birth to several daughters in a row, and it is not too outrageous that the Liu family's old tree is blooming in her fifties.
After all, in future generations, even seventy-year-old women can still give birth to twins.
Li Qing and the others were very happy when they heard that they were going to live in the countryside of Miyuan, especially Li Qing. Miyuan is the hometown of the Li family.
A group of little kids were even happier. They didn't know where the Sanyuan Dragon Bridge was, they only knew that the countryside was very lively.
Wu Huaiyu looked at the wives, concubines, and children in the courtyard, and sighed in his heart. It is difficult for ordinary people to marry a wife, and many people can only be singles. Otherwise, they have to work hard to save some money and rent other people's wives to live a couple.
Three years to give birth to a child for myself.
Most rich peasants could only be monogamous, and only landlords could afford to have a concubine.
But people as powerful as Wu Huaiyu and others, with groups of wives and concubines, and countless maids, could give birth to twenty or thirty children at will, even if one or two of them were given birth to one person.
For ordinary people, they can neither take in so many wives or concubines nor feed so many children.
Aristocratic families can afford to support them, but diseases often take away a lot of them.
The vast majority of poor people cannot really be poor for more than three generations, and they will be extinct within three generations. But why can those powerful families be passed down for thousands of years? Having more children is an important condition.
Just like Zhu Yuanzhang was also a beggar. He was born a monk, but later he became emperor and gave birth to a total of twenty-six princes and more than a dozen daughters. After more than two hundred years, by the Chongzhen period, the registered clan population reached more than 300,000.
The population is more than 200,000.
Explosive growth of ten thousand times.
In fact, for the vast majority of people, if you go up to ten or eight generations, their ancestors are not ordinary people. Very few of them have been ordinary people for generations. It is difficult for such ordinary people to escape the rise and fall of dynasties. If you go up further,
If you think about it for twenty or thirty generations, he will be either an emperor or a general.
Ordinary people not only own a lot of land, but they don't even own many women.
This has been the case throughout the ages, and it remains unchanged throughout the ages.
Even if the imperial court now issues an edict that men should get married at the age of twenty and women at the age of fifteen, but marrying a wife requires a gift, and marrying a girl requires a dowry. It is difficult for poor families to make ends meet, so there is no need to marry a wife.
Like the Wu family, there are few people who can help their slaves get married.
If the slaves of the Wu family behave well, they will get married into the master's family, and men and women will live in pairs and have children. Although the children will be slaves of the Wu family, at least they will have a family.
This is not what most powerful families do.
"I heard that the Hou Sanshui family specially bought a batch of Kunlun slaves from Jiaozhi. They were not the ordinary short Kunlun slaves, but some extremely tall Kunlun slaves."
Hou Junji got a group of tall Kunlun slaves, specially used for breeding. The Hou family also had many manors and slaves, but he did not marry the slaves, but divided the boys and girls to manage the slaves.
They specially bought some tall slaves to be breeding slaves, specifically to breed female slaves. Female slaves of the Hou family who reached the age of thirteen would start breeding and have children. The Hou family had promised that after giving birth to ten children, they would be exempted from being released as guest girls once and given higher treatment.
.
But it is not easy for an ordinary slave to give birth to ten children.
Hou Junji completely exploited those slaves to the maximum extent, raising and using them like cattle and horses.
"I heard that the Hou family even rented out the Kunlun slaves for breeding, and gave them to the Bianjiazhuang slaves. They received a sum of money for each breeding, just like breeding animals."
