Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 504 Incentives

Since the Han and Wei dynasties, those who have been named General Longxiang and General Champion are not ordinary generals.

Li Yue had seen Yuan Zhen's methods before. He was a veteran and was from the Yuan family in Chen County.

Deng Xia entered the water with his sword, slashed the dragon and came out, seriously injuring Fu Chang, which was definitely enough to defeat ten thousand enemies.

As a result, there were three people in Daliang who could fight against ten thousand people: Zhang Hao, Liu Laozhi, Deng Xia, and Li Yue was elated.

It will be of great benefit to Liang Guo if Jiangdong continues to fight among himself.

The associated Dongguan has also become Liang Tu. Behind Dongguan is Chaohu Lake, which has always been a navy base. In other words, the Liang Kingdom now has the initial ability to cross the river and destroy Jiangdong.

And Jiangdong's internal fighting is just the beginning.

After this battle, Huan Wen had to change his path if he wanted to usurp the throne. Therefore, the internal fighting in Jiangdong would only become more and more intense, and more people with lofty ideals who were tired of Jiangdong's decay would defect to the North.

Orthodoxy is basically in hand. What Liang Guo needs to do now is not to go militarily, but to increase internal cohesion and enhance national strength. The surrounding forces will send troops to annex whoever dies first.

The more than a hundred years since the death of Marquis Zhuge Wu of the Three Kingdoms have been basically a bad era.

In the later period, Cao Wei, Western Jin, Han Zhao, Jie Zhao, Cheng Han, Yan State, and Eastern Jin were all worse than the other, so Fu Jian's former Qin Dynasty stood out.

After the Southern Expedition, Liang Guo entered a period of comprehensive recuperation.

Li Yue advocated ruling by doing nothing and resting with the people. The corvee work in the country was basically done by slaves. The people only needed to invest their energy in two things, farming and having children...

In order to cultivate land for the people, Li Yue included farming into his military merit.

Based on the reclaimed wasteland and the grain turned in, titles were given, but there were only five levels: doctor, Bu Geng, hairpin, shangzao, and public servant. Each level corresponded to social status, welfare, land, and slaves.

At most, ordinary farmers could just hang out, that is, they were exempted from regular service. This attracted great attention from ordinary people, but not much from powerful nobles. They could climb to a higher status through imperial examinations and military exploits.

This move can be regarded as ensuring the interests of ordinary people.

As for the Grand Duke, special merits are required, such as discovering new crops, improving grain seeds, inventing new agricultural tools, new farming methods, increasing yields per mu, etc.

The Ministry of Finance estimates that the country's population should be around 100 million. Such a small number of people spread over the vast mountains and rivers of Kanto is simply not enough.

There are still a lot of no man's lands and empty spaces.

In other words, Liang Guo still has great development potential.

In the next few years, we will farm steadily, increase the population honestly, manage Guandong with heart, and strive to restore it to the Taikang period of the Western Jin Dynasty.

In addition, Li Yue issued three edicts to open up all mountains, rivers and forests in the country, and encourage fishing and hunting after the autumn harvest every year. Anyone who dared to occupy them under any name would be severely punished.

If you want the people to live a good life, you can't just farm. You can hunt and pick during the slack time.

Li Yue tried every means to liberate the productive forces of the people. As long as the people have vitality, the economy and national strength will naturally rise.

During the autumn harvest, Li Yue took his queen Cui Yansi, Tuoba Yushu and other concubines, as well as his four sons over six years old, to work in the fields at Fangtou Tongshan.

Unknowingly, the eldest son Li Yi, the second son Li You, the third son Li You, and the fourth son Li Lun have reached the age of soy sauce. They are also accompanied by Meng Kai's three sons. The eldest Meng Kuan is eight years old, and the second son Meng Kuan is eight years old. Tong and the third child, Meng Chong, are both six and a half years old.

Li Yue raised them in the palace as if they were his own children, and built a mansion outside the palace to house Meng Kai's four wives, concubines, and children.

A few little guys were playing and playing in the field, nothing like it.

Li Yue didn't bother to care about them. At his age, it was his nature to love to play.

After the Chinese New Year, Li Yue plans to send them all to the Shangwu Hall to learn literature and martial arts with other children and grow up together.No pillars can grow in the greenhouse of the deep palace. Li Yue does not expect them to be like the Murong family and produce two geniuses, Murong Ke and Murong Chui.

"A child of the royal family, how can you behave like this?" Cui Yansi snorted, always acting like a mother to the world.

"What do you know? How can you become a decent person just by relaxing in the civil and military ways and staying in a deep palace every day? How many times have Han Gao, a scoundrel, and Shi Le, a slave, ever become decent?" Li Yue was lying on the ground, smelling the wheat around him. Fragrant, sneer at it.

The most indispensable thing for children is the warmth of family.

Nine times out of ten, children with personality problems are brought about by their families.

There were so many beasts in the Sixteen Kingdoms and the Northern and Southern Dynasties that even Shihu was scared. He cried out why he gave birth to evil sons. He planned to kill his father when he reached [-], and prepared to wash his intestines with lime...

Liang Guo is on the right track. Chang Wei, Wang Meng, Cui Hong, Liu Ying and others are responsible for state affairs. Li Yue can spare some time to spend more time with his son.

"Oh, isn't this what I'm talking about?" Cui Yansi rolled his eyes and followed Li Yue.

Tuoba Yushu covered his mouth and smiled.

Seeing that Li Yue was so informal, the other concubines relaxed and walked around the fields at will, admiring the beauty of the autumn harvest.

The land of Hebei has not been so peaceful for a long time, and Li Yue has not been so relaxed for many years.

"Yesterday Jiangdong sent a group of women. They are all from aristocratic families. I have checked them and found that they are all as beautiful as flowers." Cui Yansi dragged her skirt and was helped out of the chariot by two female officials.

As soon as his feet touched the ground, his beautiful eyebrows furrowed with a look of disgust on his face, but he didn't dare to show too much in front of Li Yue and could only endure it.

Li Yue likes her character where everything is written on her face. Although she is arrogant, she is not deep and easy to manipulate.

"I told you not to come. If you come, you will feel disgusted."

"No, I am the master of the harem and I should set an example."

Li Yue laughed, "How many people are here from Jiangdong?"

Cui Yansi raised his fingers and said: "Wang, Xun, Yin, Xiao, Yu, Zhu, Gu, Lu, Zhang, Zhou."

Li Yue's heart moved, "Did you miss it?"

Cui Yansi was stunned for a moment, then counted on his fingers again, "There are ten in total, no one is missing."

Among the Jiangdong gentry, Wang, Xun, Yin, Xiao, and Yu were all major clans in the north, while Zhu, Gu, Lu, Zhang, and Zhou were local gentry in Jiangdong.

In the old days, Wang Xietang was in front of Yan, but the only thing missing was the Xie family.

Of course, Li Yue is by no means a lecher. All he wants is Jiangdong's attitude, and at the same time strengthen the integration of the north and the south.

I had clearly reminded Xie An that others would give it to him, but his family wouldn't give it to him. What does that mean?
Do you look down on Emperor Liang?
Li Yue suddenly remembered the poem sent by Xie An: What are the utensils like?So I was asked to move again and again.The deceased general can stay in Siyu for the rest of his days.

Let’s use Li Yue’s remaining literary talents to translate: Who the hell do you want me to move?Even if you are overwhelming, I will not be moved and will stay in Jiangdong's house for the rest of my life...

Although it's not that serious, it's not too far off.

Li Yue chuckled twice. The Jiangdong nobles were indeed different. They were so poetic and oblique in their curses...

"Why is Your Majesty laughing?" Cui Yansi opened his eyes wide.

"Nothing." Li Yue touched his chin.
