People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 335 Opening up wasteland and granting land, closing the Jiaofang Division

Li Xuan was sitting on a high seat, with his hands on his legs, looking forward, he had a clear view of everything in the entire pavilion.

The official document of opening up wasteland and granting land was slowly circulating in everyone's hands. After reading it, the expressions on these people's faces changed in different ways.

After a while, Li Xuan tapped lightly on the table.

"Bang bang bang!"

Everyone's attention was drawn back at once.

Li Xuan leaned forward slightly, and said slowly but firmly: "Everyone has been in Wuzhou for many years, and you should know that the prosperity and prosperity of Wuzhou in the past 20 years are really due to the immigrants from Muzhou."

As soon as Li Xuan finished speaking, the faces of everyone present couldn't help but froze slightly.

When Chen Shuozhen caused trouble, his subordinates were mainly Muzhou soldiers.

After the war was pacified, although the imperial court did not kill the people of Muzhou, it became increasingly harsh in tax collection.

In the end, the people of Muzhou could not bear the high taxes and were forced to leave Muzhou and go to other states to beg for work.

In Quzhou, Wuzhou, Hangzhou, Huzhou, even Yuezhou and Suzhou, there are traces of Muzhou people.

However, the people of Muzhou migrated the most, besides Hangzhou, that is Wuzhou.

Li Xuan looked at the well-known people present, and said in a deep voice: "The rise of the Tianyin sect in Muzhou has had a deep influence on the people of Muzhou. Although my king's prohibition order can benefit many people, but Among them, the people of Muzhou have the least benefits, because they have no land."

Having said this, Li Xuan's voice paused for a while, and his body leaned forward again, a strong sense of oppression suddenly hit everyone.

Opening his arms, Li Xuan said with great emotion: "My Tang Dynasty is prosperous and prosperous, and I want to be the people's will. The people of Wuzhou are like this, and the people of Muzhou should be like this. Therefore, the king issued this order to open up wasteland and grant land, hoping that Muzhou The common people can also return to Wuzhou and the imperial court."

"The lord loves the people like a son, and the world respects them." Zhang Yi stood up and bowed his hands to Li Xuan earnestly.

Li Xuan frowned, waved her hands, and said very bluntly: "Speak directly."

He is really allergic to the words "love the people like a son".

This couldn't help but reminded him of how he plotted against Dou Xuande when he was in Yangzhou, but was plotted by Dou Xuande again.

He doesn't want to be tricked by Zhang Yi now.

"The lower officials are not questioning the order of the prince. The prince loves the people like a son, and his heart is clearly visible. However, the people of Muzhou have a lot of complaints against the court. I am afraid that their hearts are far from being resolved by granting land. In addition, Wuzhou is actually There is not so much barren land to grant." Zhang Yi's last sentence expressed what he really thought in his heart, no land.

At the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the world was initially settled, and most of the land could be granted. Therefore, a family of adult males could be granted a hundred acres of land.

By the time of Zhenguan, the number of acres of grantable land in the world was seriously insufficient, and even fell to only one household with more than 60 acres.

Up to now, the land granting in the world has become more and more stringent, and the inspection of land granting is becoming more and more strict. The number of land granted by each person has dropped to [-] mu.

The number of acres in the hands of the government is decreasing day by day, and many of them are barren fields that are difficult to reclaim.

"Joining the army is justified." Li Xuan nodded slightly, motioning Zhang Yi to sit down, but Zhang Yi did not sit down, and still stood there, as if Li Xuan had to change course.

Li Xuan looked at Zhang Yi, thinking about it, and said, "This king has also considered what he said about joining the army; first of all, the people of Muzhou are in chaos, but every point that can be pulled is one point, and the power of the other generation is reduced by one point, and the power of our generation is reduced by one point." It will strengthen one point, go inside and outside, this is the difference between two points, the way of the art of war is as subtle as possible, that's why."

Hearing what Li Xuan said, Zhang Yi had no choice but to nod in agreement.

If the people of Muzhou belong to the imperial court, one point will be lost, and the Tianyin Sect will lose one point. When it comes to the battlefield, at least one or two people will die less.

Cumulatively, the amount is definitely considerable.

Step by step, and finally completely determine the victory.

"Second." Li Xuan looked at the people present, and then said, "Since the said field is barren land, it's not too much for me to ask the person who granted the land to leave the state city immediately to start plowing the barren land and rush to plant autumn crops." Bar."

"It turns out that the prince wants to divert the tiger away from the mountain." Zhang Yi immediately reacted.

"Thirdly, Wuzhou does not have so much barren land to divide right now, but it doesn't mean there won't be any in the future." Li Xuan looked at the people present with a half-smile, hiding the coldness of the corners of his mouth, making all the people present I couldn't help but feel a chill in my body.

Shen Tuo on the side couldn't help but stood up, looked at Li Xuan with a worried face, cupped his hands and asked, "I don't know what the prince means by this?"

"What do you mean?" Li Xuan couldn't help laughing, his eyes swept over the faces of everyone present, and then said very bluntly: "You are all smart people, who is missing in this banquet, everyone must You can see clearly."

Yang Yan, Yang Yan, the owner of the Yang Family.

Shen Tuo immediately looked at a low table placed outside the attic.

That's actually where the Yang family should sit today.

But he didn't come.

Shen Tuo was not confused. Although the matter of the Yang family was secret, it could not be hidden from everyone present.

If Li Xuan could find out things in only two days after coming to Wuzhou, if those aristocratic families in Wuzhou really didn't find out anything in two months, who would believe it.

Reminiscent of the assassination case that happened two streets away, Shen Tuo immediately understood what happened.

There is no doubt that the king of Nanchang is making a big article around the Yang family.

Once he succeeds, by then, I am afraid that the entire Yang family will cease to exist.

"Some things are done once they are done. Sometimes, someone has to pay the price." Li Xuan looked at the people whose expressions changed slightly in front of him, and said calmly, "Once you start doing some things, you don't want to pay the price." I want to hide it from everyone."

After saying that, Li Xuan turned her head to look in the direction of Luoyang, and said softly, "It's not necessarily a bad thing for me to pursue some things. If His Majesty and the Queen of Heaven send someone to investigate, then it will be a big trouble."

Li Xuan's eyes fell on Lai Shentuo's body, and his whole body immediately shivered.

Raising his head, Shen Tuo looked at Li Xuan with fear in his eyes.

However, Li Xuan saw from Shen Tuo's eyes that it was not his fear of himself, but his fear of the emperor, as well as his fear of the empress.

After all, Shen Tuo once served as governor of a state, and he has a better understanding of the situation in the court than anyone present.

Although the emperor is keen on martial arts, he is quite lenient, but the Queen of Heaven...

Looking at the behavior style of Beimen Bachelor, you can know how Tianhou works.

Shen Tuo bowed his hands to Li Xuan, and said: "What the prince said is very true, this matter really needs someone to come out and bear the price, I will know how to do it."

"That's it, this king can rest assured." Li Xuan's eyes swept over the faces of everyone present.

Since he mentioned the emperor, the faces of everyone present couldn't help but change slightly.

Someone from the Teng family worked in Chang'an as the Imperial Academy for Jijiu, and the Qian family was basically the shell of Yue Wang's mansion.

The former is okay, but the latter is even more afraid of avoiding such things.

The emperor is quite lenient externally, but internally, especially the royal family.

If you really want to do something that he can't stand, he will directly kill you.

Li Xuan is fine, he is the son of the old King Peng, and King Peng is the concubine son of Gaozu, but Li Zhen, the king of Yue, is more troublesome.

He is the concubine son of Emperor Taizong, and he is brother with Li Zhi, the threat to the throne is far greater than Li Xuan.

Empress Wu wanted to attack the King of Yue, and the emperor would never say a word.

"Also!" Li Xuan paused for a while, and then said softly: "The matter of granting land to barren hills is subject to the registration of households in the state government. Among the registrations of households, which piece of land belongs to uninhabited wasteland and which piece does not belong to uninhabited land." Wasteland, everyone should be aware of it."

"Come on, let's dance!" Li Xuan ordered.

The next moment, four graceful women in white chest-length skirts and purple gauze slid out from behind the curtains on both sides.

In a blink of an eye, she was already dancing in front of everyone.

Although the four of them danced beautifully, at this moment, everyone present didn't have much thought about these aspects.

What Li Xuan just said was full of meaning in his voice.

What does it mean that everything is subject to the registration of the Hucao? Naturally, it is based on the final grant of land, the registration above the Hucao.

So before that, it is natural to take the opportunity to do something.

Over the years, every household has actually been reclaiming wasteland. Logically speaking, the wasteland reclaimed by the people will naturally belong to the people.

However, as long as the imperial court orders that piece of barren land is allowed to be reclaimed, the reclaimed barren land can be eligible for distribution.

For aristocratic families, they always like to cultivate a large amount of land quietly and secretly, the purpose is naturally to avoid court taxes.

Aristocratic families are such virtues.

Ming Ming court doesn't pay much taxes on each mu of land, but they only see that the accumulation of these taxes is a huge amount, so they naturally hope to be able to use up the entire amount.

So even though these people secretly reclaimed a lot of wasteland, there is no record in Hucao.

Today's Li Xuan is giving them a chance to convert these dark fields into bright fields.

In this way, Yintian's previous charges were cancelled, but they will start paying taxes from now on.

Paying taxes is the last thing these aristocratic families want, but now they are even more worried that the King of Nanchang will use this to link them with rebellion. Once this happens, the situation will really be troublesome.

Several people made eye contact with each other, but in the end, they didn't have much to do.

After all, they didn't want to really offend the frequent trickster in front of them, Wuzhou Biejia, Nanchang County King who wields great power.

So in the end, going to Hucao to register in advance has become the last choice after everyone has no choice.

The big picture is set.

Li Xuan didn't pay attention to the crowd at the moment, but just stared straight at the dancing Jiaofang girls in front of her.

I saw these women, dancing gracefully with gauze, with fairy arms fluttering, high spirits, and graceful figures blooming to the fullest.

Unconsciously, it seems to have merged with the surrounding candlelight.

Especially the woman standing at the front, facing Li Xuan, looked even more energetic.

Between dancing and moving, Linglong fluttered up and down, attracting people's attention.

In particular, she also deliberately aimed at Li Xuan, naturally and unnaturally showing a hint of spring.

Only for Li Xuan.

Li Xuan sat there, looking at her, with a playful look in his eyes.

[Xu Lu, a native of Chun'an, Muzhou, the deputy head of the Wuzhou Church of Tianyin Sect, a congenital and true cultivation base, has a unique way of killing people]

There are other ways to kill people, and what other ways women can kill people.

Fang Yunxiu, your methods are really endless!

There are two assassins on Long Street, and Li Xuan's family also has a Tianyin Saintess Ye Wanwan, and now there is another deputy hall master.

How much do you want me to die!

In a blink of an eye, the song ended, and the four beauties bowed heavily to the ground.

Facing Li Xuan, her face was blushing, and the spring was peaceful.

Unknowingly, the entire pavilion suddenly calmed down.

Li Xuan clapped her hands indifferently, then looked at everyone present, with a sneer at the corner of her mouth: "These four are candidates for Wuzhou Huakui selected by the Secretary of Jiaofang this year. This king has just come to Wuzhou. I think you should know them better. ?”

"I dare not!" Zhang Yi reacted immediately.

After all, not long ago, it was still the death day of honoring the emperor.

If Li Xuan really seized the opportunity to impeach him, I don't know how many people will be killed.

Li Xuan smiled lightly: "I don't have that intention, I'm just thinking, should I close the entire Jiaofang Division from now on?"

　Linglong dice and red beans.

　　How many people understand?
