Don't be a prince

Since my child ran to Weishui, it was as if he had lost it, and he didn't want to go home at all. When will he come back and please be safe?

But since the crown prince has said so in public, come on, let's take it as such!

After drinking a glass of wine, the banquet entered a good stage.

Civil servants appreciated the prince's words very much, so officials came out from time to time to praise the preciousness of Wanmin Shu and the benevolence of the prince.

Therefore, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet can be called joyful.

Li Chengqian couldn't stop smiling while drinking the wine.

Let's talk about the unlucky stationmaster. As a superior, there is no need for so-called merit. Even if there is, it is the merit of his subordinates.As a prince, it is impossible for him to take the credit for suppressing the locust plague to himself. It is the officials who really need it.

As for the harvest of the East Palace, it should be the praise of the officials and the praise of the common people.

"With these two things, your crown prince position is guaranteed!"

After saying such a sentence, Li Gang continued to close his eyes and rest with a smile.

Ever since He Changzong was slapped in the face by the prince at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the first year, no one tried to get lucky by flattering him, so no one came out to recite poems until the end of the banquet.

In the early days of Zhenguan, literary talent and elegance were not yet prevalent, and everyone was working hard with tight belts, so no one would be free to write poems.

But no one can write poems, because the emperor who drank too much felt that the Mid-Autumn Festival would be boring without poems, and he threw the burden of writing poems on the prince who had just obtained the Wanmin Book.

Although today is only the Mid-Autumn Festival, the locust plague has passed, and the crown prince kicked back the civil servants for their great achievements, so many people are drunk.If it is normal, only when the emperor sighs that there is no poem this year, there will be people who are arrogant and romantic to stand up and write poems.

Li Gang opened his eyes and looked at his apprentice worriedly.

After a long time of free-range, he realized that he didn't teach his disciples to write poems.

Li Chengqian also stood up with a frowning face. It was not difficult to write poems. Anyway, there are hundreds of poems in Tang and Song Dynasties, usually after the Zhenguan period, so he can safely and boldly plagiarize.However, Mid-Autumn Festival poems are nothing more than homesickness, and I really miss my little eDonkey and bank card.But the prince who lives in Chang'an has the homesickness of a hammer!

You can't write poems indiscriminately. If your mood doesn't match your own, it will be a big joke.

When he was in a hurry, he couldn't hold back his words. When he said "I have a feeling of homesickness with a hammer", Li Shimin was overjoyed, and the ministers were also dumbfounded.

Seeing that the prince stood up, he didn't say a word at first, and then he uttered shocking words. Although Fang Xuanling was also drunk, he could barely stand up, and persuaded: "Your Highness, don't worry, you are young now, what kind of poems are you doing?" Either way, even if it doesn't rhyme."

Fortunately, the tofu brain in his mind still has a little ability, and Li Chengqian, who was also drunk, found a suitable poem in a short time.

Just when the emperor was about to end his son's embarrassment while laughing, Li Chengqian said:

"White trees and silver twigs in the atrium, cold dew silently wet osmanthus flowers. Tonight, the moon is bright and people can look forward to it, and I don't know who's autumn will fall."

After reading it, Li Chengqian sat back down. It was too difficult. After searching his stomach, he found a poem in the corner of his memory, and changed the sentence "the white tree in the courtyard lives for crows" in a brainstorming way. .

There are no crows in the palace, because the crows are unknown, although there is no shortage of such things around Chang'an, after being hunted by the guards, no one dares to fly to the palace.

Just replace the crow with a silver branch, and the moon is like frost. No one can tell if it's changed like this.

It wasn't just one or two people who could drink well in Chaozhong. After hearing the prince's poem clearly, they shook their heads one by one. They wanted to bite the bullet and praise a few words, but after the whole poem was formed in their minds, they felt that it was unexpectedly good.

"White trees and silver twigs in the atrium", "ground white" and "silver twigs" all illustrate the brightness of the moon tonight, "cold dew silently wets osmanthus".Not only does it give people a sense of tranquility, but also adds sweet-scented osmanthus, so that people who read this sentence can't help but recall the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus.

As for the sentence "Everyone is looking forward to the moonlight tonight, I don't know who's fall in autumn", it corresponds to the prince's sentence "I have a feeling of homesickness with a hammer". Yes, the prince does not have one, but on this festival, the prince Not having it doesn’t mean others don’t.Although it is from the perspective of a bystander, the homesickness is also truly expressed in the poem.

Dr. Guozi, that is, Kong Yingda, the leader of the Guozijian, stood up, applauded loudly and said: "This poem by the prince, you can see and feel it. , I wrote it entirely with my own ideas. From the perspective of the old minister, whether it is from the point of view of the words and sentences or from the point of view of the documentary, the prince's poem is a very good poem. Today's Mid-Autumn Festival has this wonderful poem, and the old minister is really like drinking fine wine ah!"

With Kong Yingda leading the way, the officials naturally complimented the prince.Even some generals who don't understand poetry are no longer stingy with their cheers.

Kong Yingda can be said to be smelly and hard, and even this guy stood up to praise the prince's poems, which is really good.

Li Shimin on the throne was also very surprised, and waved his hand to signal Zhang Yun to bring the wine to the prince. It is customary for the emperor to give wine when a good poem is born.

It's just that he thinks he is talented in literature, and he couldn't come up with a good poem costume after searching his brains... Ahem, to celebrate the festive season, he didn't expect the prince to recite an excellent poem.

After receiving the wine from Zhang Yun, Li Chengqian became even more frowning.He doesn't like to drink white wine, only wine can be enjoyed, such a big glass, he won't be able to get up to practice martial arts tomorrow morning.

But if you don’t drink it, you can’t do it. The emperor gave you wine. If you don’t drink it, you will be disrespectful, and you will be slapped in the face. Last time you provoked him, you were almost beaten. This time, in front of civil and military officials, or at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, you will end up in dire straits ah!

Gritting his teeth, he poured the wine into his mouth, resisting the fire from his mouth to his stomach, and finally he didn't make a fool of himself.

Now he regretted getting out the high alcohol early.

I don't know what happened after the banquet. Li Chengqian, who was drunk, was carried back to the East Palace.

The plague of locusts has passed, and Liang Shidu has also been turned into flying ashes under the iron cavalry of the Tang Dynasty.

Jieli and Tuli in the prairie were still fighting. Although Gao Li made some changes, she shrank back obediently after being beaten up by Zhang Jian.

The Tubo people heard that they were also in civil war, so they had no desire to take action against Datang for the time being.

In the autumn of the second year of Zhenguan, the world was peaceful.

The old man finally gave up on the idea of ​​starting the School of Arts. Although he was eager to see the first step of enlightening the world, the problem of heating in the school was still a big problem.

As autumn became cooler, homeless people from all over Guanzhong gathered in Chang'an. After paying their wages on the construction site for the last time, they reluctantly left Chang'an and began to go home under the leadership of their respective state officials.

Each Anbenzhai, this is the order from Hubu.

It’s okay to stay in the local area without food during the disaster year, and it’s okay for the people to leave their homes to survive, but it’s not okay to stay in Chang’an after the disaster is over.

On the vast land, human footprints have not yet conquered nature.Only by dispersing the people can we better cultivate wasteland.Only by dispersing the people can the land equalization system be implemented better.

1 Chapter Eighty

The land equalization system and the mansion military system were two systems in the early Tang Dynasty.

The government clearly stipulates that women are generally not granted land, and slaves, maidservants and oxen are no longer granted land.Due to the insufficient area of ​​land grants, land grants will not be doubled in narrow rural areas that require cultivation.

In addition, as long as the above-mentioned middle-aged men and young men can each receive [-] mu of land and [-] mu of Yongye land.Old men, disabled persons will receive [-] mu of land, and widows and concubines will receive [-] mu of land; if these people are heads of household, they will each receive [-] mu of Yongye land and [-] mu of land.Miscellaneous households receive fields like ordinary people.Industrial and commercial persons and official households receive half of the land received by the common people.Taoist priests and monks are given [-] mu of fields, and nuns and female crowns are given [-] mu of fields.In addition, ordinary women, trilogy, and slaves are not subject to land.

However, nobles with titles, from princes to dukes, received [-] hectares of Yongye land and reduced it to five hectares.From the first rank to the eighth and ninth ranks, the clerks were reduced from sixty hectares of Yongyetian to two hectares.Scattered officials of the fifth rank and above are subject to the same position as officials in Yongyetian.From Shangzhu Kingdom to Yunqi and Wuqiwei, the Xunguan received [-] hectares of Yongye field and reduced it to [-] mu.In addition, bureaucrats at all levels and the government also received varying amounts of official land and public land. The land rent of the official land was used as a supplement to the bureaucrat's salary, and the land rent of the public land was used as the cost of the government office.The ownership of these two kinds of land belongs to the state.

Although the land equalization system can stimulate the development of wasteland very well and allow the people to rely on food and drink, it also leaves a curse for land annexation.

The laws of the Tang Dynasty stipulated that land could not be bought or sold privately, only Yongye land and gift land owned by nobles and bureaucrats could be sold freely.People who migrate and are unable to bury are allowed to sell Yongye land.Move to Kuan Township, where there are few people and more land, and those who are sold as houses and mansions are allowed to sell and divide the land.

It looks strict, but it's actually very loose.Chinese people, especially landlords, rich and nobles, have had a strong desire to possess land since ancient times. No one thinks that they have little land, so they can take advantage of the fact that ordinary people’s homes cannot be opened, or that old couples need medicine but cannot afford it. From time to time, there will always be kind people coming to take over their fields.If the local county magistrate encounters such a problem, most of them can just turn a blind eye and close one eye. After all, people who eat in the land, let alone spend enough money, are good enough to eat.Mobile terminal../

Farmers don't have any money left. Those who have money are the nobles and businessmen who control the weakness of the common people, so that they can unscrupulously show their hungry fangs to the vast fields.

Now, Heitantou showed his fangs, threatening the fat man in front of him fiercely, because this guy was complaining to his master with snot and tears.

"Okay, my prince, you are the crown prince, how can you enter a place like Pingkangfang? If your majesty or empress knows that Weichen has entrusted you with the place, although you won't be beheaded, you will definitely not be able to escape with a meal. Yes!"

Ankang County Bo Chensan is the real master behind the scene that Yu Tai found.

As the red-light district of Chang'an, Pingkangfang naturally has no shortage of shareholders.Chen San is one of them.

The other brothels are all on the sister's body, but this guy is on the decoration.It was obviously a venue where the trade of flesh and blood came first, and the venue after the wind, flowers, snow and moon, but he insisted on changing it into an important place where poetry and song were the first, and made a lot of people who thought they were both literary and elegant, want to come here come here.

Li Chengqian doesn't care about the reputation of the brothel. What he cares about is the interior decoration of Chen San's Quyi Pavilion, which is very suitable for tinkering with the auction house.

On one side is an elegant room for exchanging poems and scribbling ink casually, and on the other side is a staged design like a theater.The former seduced a large number of literary talents, and the latter was loved by many old people, such as Xiao Yu.

Just adjust the layout, change the private rooms into private rooms, and turn the stage into an auction stage, haha, isn't it a proper auction house!

Reaching out to hug Heitan's head, Li Chengqian naturally sat on the chair and raised Erlang's legs.

It was a very casual movement, but in the eyes of Chen San, who was very good at observing words and expressions, it seemed that there was a little more pressure for no reason, which made him unable to say what he said next.

"Okay, don't complain here. I'm just asking you, are you going to give Gu this face? I'm not smashing your business, but fancying your land. You moved all the internal personnel to another place. The Quyi Pavilion can still be opened!"

Hearing this sentence, Chen San secretly heaved a sigh of relief, as long as the prince doesn't want to get involved in the pink business.As for the land, it's easy to say!I used to think that the place of Quyi Pavilion was too small, and it would be difficult to expand it to a bigger place. This time, I just wanted to be a favor and make it easier for the prince.

"Your Highness, since you have taken a fancy to the land, tell me earlier! Ten thousand crowns, no, five thousand crowns will be sold to you, and the land deed will be handed over to you. You don't need to trade it yourself, just send an eunuch Just go with Weichen."

Li Chengqian nodded, it seemed that Chen San was very knowledgeable.The land in Pingkangfang usually costs more than [-] yuan, and it is not impossible for a large one to sell for [-] yuan.This bastard's territory is not small, and he sold five thousand pens just to curry favor with the crown prince.

As for going to the Chang'an County Government to handle the handover, it would not be embarrassing for the dignified prince to go in person.

Rubbing the dog's head, Li Chengqian pointed at Fang Sheng.Chen San immediately followed Fang Sheng out with a smile on his face.

Glancing at the Shuanglongzun glass cup placed on the table, Li Chengqian couldn't help but sigh with emotion for Yan Liben's persistence.

Since August, apart from staying in Chang'an for a short period of time during the promotion banquet and buying a mansion, this guy has been immersed in his own fire kiln, concentrating on studying how to make colored glaze.

I thought it would be great if he could take out colored glaze like Jiaozi from a lime factory, and then change the shape, but who would have thought that this guy would research the finished colored glaze to the point of being translucent.

Translucent glass is still rubbish in Li Chengqian's eyes, but it is a masterpiece in this era.

There is a glass cup in the Lizheng Hall of the emperor, which is crystal clear, and it is placed on the bookshelf so that no one will glance at it.

There are very few people who can turn over the emperor's bookshelf, and Li Chengqian happens to be one of them.After accidentally breaking the glass cup, Li Chengqian watched helplessly as his stepfather picked up the table case and wanted to kill him.If it wasn't for the confinement queen's old lady who tried her best to stop him, and she swore to get him a better one, half of her life might be lost.

The skillful hand of the prisoner!They don't have to shape it, just use molds and polish it, and they have come up with such a magnificent thing.

Two dragons walk on the cup, which looks extraordinarily magnificent.Of course, the dragon has five claws, and only the emperor can use them to show off.

Chapter 181 Carp

"Hmph, I'm here to collect the bill, Prince, where is the bigger and better colored glass you promised to give back to me?"

Hearing this voice, Li Chengqian put Heitan's head on the ground, and quickly stood up to meet him.

There is no need to greet him, Li Shimin has never been conscious of being an emperor or a father, and every time he comes to the East Palace, he is sneaky, like a thief.

But today this person did not enter the East Palace as a thief, but a debt collector.

The weather has already begun to enter winter, but Li Shimin is still lightly dressed.Although there are a lot of children, his anger is no different from when he was young.

As soon as he entered the study, he ignored his saluting son, and then casually kicked aside Heitantou who was about to move his mouth.

"This...."

He couldn't help striding forward, but carefully picked up the glass cup, Li Shimin's eyes were red.This cup was crystal clear, and Zhang Yun could even vaguely see a figure in front of him. Under the sunlight coming in from outside the door, the cup was even more crystal clear. No matter how you looked at it, it was priceless.

"Where did you buy it!"

He was still intoxicated just now, but the next moment Li Shimin began to gnash his teeth.

The value of such a cup is immeasurable, and he couldn't imagine how the prince got it.

Whether it is spending a lot of money or bullying others, it is not the result he wants to see.Although he also likes to show off, he gets angry when he sees his son spending a lot of money to show off.

Reaching out his hand to ask for the cup from the unwilling emperor, Li Chengqian held the cup and asked, "Father, let me make an analogy, let me make an analogy! If my son said that this thing was bought for [-] guan, would you believe it? "

Li Shimin shook his head: "[-] cups? Don't open your mouth if you don't have [-] cups like this. And it must be the premise that the owner is willing to sell it. You must know that there are many barbarian luxury merchants in the market. , but there is always a price but no market for the best. I almost got into a fight with Yuan Ji on the spot because of that wine glass. Otherwise, why do you think I would be so angry?"

After the rhetorical question, Li Shimin felt that the topic had gone too far: "Don't change the topic, I'm asking you where you got this glass cup. If it's the Ankang county uncle Liu San who just left, hehe."

The decorations of the five-clawed dragon, ordinary people have the most to get a board, and if the nobles have it for a long time and don't dedicate it to the emperor, it is a serious crime of ransacking their family and exterminating their clan.Liu Sanben was a wealthy businessman in Jinyang, and he won the title as a businessman by virtue of his contributions to helping the Supreme Emperor raise troops.Such people are usually located in the lower part of the wall of the apse of Baifu Hall, and they are the objects that the emperor is ready to eliminate at any time.

Li Chengqian didn't want to deceive Liu San, so he threw the Shuanglong Zun glass cup in his hand casually.

Li Shimin was horrified, but when Zhang Yun wanted to make a move, he was attracted by Heitantou's cry, so the cup fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

"Father, this thing is not as valuable as you think. Glass? Heaven and earth? It's all nonsense, it's a lie used by Huzi. In fact, it's the same as porcelain, it's all made of sand."

"Is it burnt from the sand?"

Hearing these words, Li Shimin let go of his tightly clenched fist. If Li Chengqian spoke more slowly, his fist would hit Li Chengqian... Zhang Yun's face opposite.

There is no way, seeing a treasure shattered in front of his eyes, even if he is the emperor, he needs to let go of the regret in his heart.His own son can't beat him, and he can easily kill him with one punch. It is his right to take Zhang Yun's knife.

He took out another box from the desk drawer, Li Chengqian handed it to Li Shimin and said: "When the Shuanglong Zun was made, I was going to smash it. You are the Ninth Five-Year Zun, and there are only two dragons hanging on the cup." Let's figure out what's going on. So, Erchen asked the craftsman to make another nine-dragon cup, which is in line with your status!"

Opening the brocade box, he saw the Nine Dragons Supreme Cup inside, especially when he saw a piece of sand next to the cup that was burnt out of shape, Li Shimin immediately felt no jealousy anymore.

It's just broken things burned out of sand.

Putting the brocade box on the table, Li Shimin sat on Li Chengqian's chair, also raised his legs and asked: "When I came here, I met Chen San, the uncle of Ankang County, and he told me everything. Brat , why do you want to buy a brothel! Believe it or not, the Zongzheng government will directly call you to punish you when it finds out?"

The dignified prince opened a brothel, and he lost the face of the royal family and even the entire Tang Dynasty, so the Zongzheng Mansion really will not show mercy on this matter.

Li Chengqian poured a cup of tea and handed it to Li Shimin, before saying: "I am going to slaughter those Hu merchants, as well as the Korean caravan. They were detained in Chang'an because of the locust plague. Although the ban was lifted later, in order to avoid During the cold season on the road, we can only stay here. Look at the places where they live, they are all the courtyards of court officials or wealthy families, rich people! The sons and ministers want to build a college, and they will need a lot of money in the future, so I'm ready to make a fortune." On the mobile phone../

"Use glass?"

Li Shimin poked the glass cup playfully, then shook the wolf's tail covered with an apron: "Come on, tell me about your plan. There are always omissions in doing things at a young age, and I'll give you the details."

The participation of the emperor's father surprised Li Chengqian inexplicably. This is a top-ranking master planner in history. Such a good help should not be in vain.

Moving a small bench to sit opposite, Li Chengqian chuckled: "I think so..."

Zhang Yun looked at his master blankly, and had a heated discussion with the little master. When it came to the danger, the two even drank a pot of wine against each other.Because now standing together with barely expressionless faces, there is another Fang Sheng.

After going through the plan perfectly, Li Shimin looked at the darkening sky outside and said as a matter of course: "It's so late, I guess I can only eat cold rice when I go back, so let's eat it in your East Palace."
