Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 821 Liu Xiang, you really have eyesight!
When the policy of relocating the narrow township to the wide township was placed in the Hanyuan Hall, the courtiers standing on duty all looked at each other in blank dismay. It was too sudden. It only stopped for a few days. , You have to toss about "chicken flying dog jumping" to feel at ease.

In the Tang Dynasty, the river is clean, the sea is clean, the years are rich and the years are rich. Regarding the invincibility and invincibility, it can be said bluntly that with this family business, the Li family can enjoy three generations of peace even if they do nothing. ;Everyone can't understand why the string in the head of the father and son has been so tight, as if someone is chasing them behind.

Is it right to move narrow villages to wide ones? Yes, that’s right. The land and tax system are the foundation of the country. As long as the contradictions on the land are eased, then other problems will not be a problem, even if the person sitting on it is a mediocre person. Lord, then this world is destined to be peaceful.

Li Shimin had the merits of founding the foundation and establishing the country. In the chaotic Sui and Tang Dynasties, he stood out from the crowd with his heroism. His light was so dazzling that even his father and brother covered it; even if Li Yuan was the founding emperor, He has been in power for nine years, but people can only remember Li Shimin's great achievements.

The prince, the officials don't know how to describe him anymore, he can be a prince of peace, he can listen to the Tao, concentrate on assisting the emperor in dealing with common affairs, and finally rule the world with kingly principles; The tossing ghosts and gods dare not get close to them, and do the king's business with domineering.

Take Buddhism as an example. For hundreds of years, the gods have been superior to the world. Nobles, nobles, powerful families, and common people have all bowed down to serve them. Even the emperors have to be restrained by them, or they are willing to be servants. serve.

But when it came to this young master, it was different. Taking advantage of Le Shi Yanran's merits, when his prestige in the government and the public was at its peak, he turned around and slashed at the Buddhist sect, catching them by surprise.

The power of the bald donkeys is not small, no worse than the yellow turban thieves at the end of the Han Dynasty, but the Tang Dynasty was not the end of the Han Dynasty, and the emperor and his son were not fatuous masters like Emperor Ling. will be surrounded by tens of thousands of troops;

In the same way, if anyone is concerned about the matter of relocating a narrow village to a wider one, then one can imagine what will happen if they make a fuss about it. Therefore, the main point today is not to discuss whether it is possible, but to discuss how to do it.

"You are all cadres. Naturally, there is no need to talk about the benefits of the land taxation system after the change. As long as the policy of land, rivers and canals, and rent reduction and tax reduction persists for a long time, I believe that there will be no more people in Tang Dynasty. refugees.

And this kind of achievement not only belongs to His Majesty, but also belongs to you. In the future, it will leave a strong mark on the history, and it will be praised by future generations for thousands of years. "

Give the ministers a high hat first, after all, they have to take the lead in this matter, otherwise, those gentry below would be so willing to move away, using the benefits of land prices to incite the people in the narrow township, then this job would be impossible. I saw a joke.

Although the common people complained very much about the gentry, they were really envious in their hearts. They always took their behavior as a weather vane.

Afterwards, proceeding from the interests, he persuaded the interests of the people: First of all, no matter whether it is a noble family or an ordinary gentry, it is impossible for them to farm the land by themselves. Except for the land under their name, they have to hire common people It is very unrealistic to rely on the few servants at home to do it.

Secondly, once the government's policy is implemented, the price of land will fall all the way. Not only will the land in their hands be uncultivated, but it will also depreciate in value, and the vacant land will have to pay several times the fine, which is really not worth the candle.

Spending too much energy on this can only depreciate their property more and more, and it is absolutely necessary to care so much if they are full.

The last point is the current changes in the Tang Dynasty. From the beginning of Zhenguan, the imperial court not only introduced a policy of light corvee and low tax to benefit the people, but also encouraged industry and commerce. In terms of the current tax revenue of the Ministry of Households, nearly [-]% comes from industry and commerce.

The imperial court has never banned the property of the official family, and everyone has made a lot of money in these years, so why care about moving two or three hundred miles of cultivated land!
Li Chengqian's words pierced the window paper. The court couldn't help the officials and eunuchs to go into business. It deliberately left them a road to open source, so that when the land system was reformed, it would not be as drastic as in previous dynasties. It was done on purpose, so they were already in the trap and didn't know it. Isn't the industrial zone a product of this?
Now, they are not rich, and the money for a month of drinking and drinking is more than that of growing food for a year, so this is not a way to cut off people's wealth. Even if they don't want to, it's just a matter of face. It will be solved naturally.

"His Royal Highness, since the imperial court intends to implement the policy of benefiting the people by relocating narrow villages to wider ones, the ministers and others will naturally support them. The so-called being an official and benefiting one side is nothing! It's just that the officials and gentry have great achievements. , the population is so large, and it will affect the whole body. It is naturally impossible to walk without rights and ties like the common people.

According to Chen's humble opinion, should we divide it into two steps, the ones with small fortunes go first, the ones with big fortunes go slowly, and when we clean up in the last one to two months, we will have to move sooner or later anyway, there is no need to rush for a while Well! "

Liu Jie's words are very reasonable. It can be seen that he is really thinking about the court, and he said it after careful consideration. This is obviously making up for Li Tai; whether it is out of Shangyi or his sincerity, Li Chengqian will There was no reason to refuse, so he nodded with a smile, turned around and cupped his hands to express to the emperor that this was an old-fashioned way of seeking the country.

And Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and other important officials also had to bow their heads one after another. Of course it is good to eliminate the grievances to the maximum. This is beneficial to the court and the people. Anyway, if there is room for one piece, one must go. .

The prime ministers all agreed, so what do the following servants have to say? Du Zhenglun, Lu Chengqing, Xu Yushi, Shangguanyi, Liu Xiangdao, Dou Dexuan, Le Yanwei, Sun Chuyue and others all came out to support the proposal.

Li Shimin also went down the slope and ordered the three brothers of the prince to act as agents in the matter of relocating the narrow township to the wide township. They will actively cooperate with all yamen involved, otherwise they will be charged with delaying government affairs.

The discussion went smoothly, and there was no resistance as expected, which the emperor and Li Chengqian did not expect, but the father and son would never have imagined that such a policy of benefiting the people would pull out so much mud. .
