Datang first village

The cost of this banquet was finally paid by Qin Palace.

In fact, it can be considered that Li Yuanxing has done Cui Junsu a big favor. This is an expense for ceremonies and sacrifices, and Datang has a corresponding budget every year.

But this time, the expenditure is quite huge, although there is still money in the treasury of the household department.But next year there will be no population tax, and if there is no land tax, then Cui Junsu will not have any low tax revenue from the Ministry of Households, so let’s count as much as you can save.

As for the business tax, how much household income tax can be collected, and what troubles will arise in the middle, Cui Junsu also has no idea.

"Your Highness, today is October [-]!" Cui Junsu reminded.

Li Yuanxing didn't quite understand: "What day is October [-], has this king missed anything?"

"The New Year is only two months away. How will your Highness celebrate this New Year, have you thought about it?" Cui Junsu was a kind reminder that the preparations for the New Year in the first year of Zhenguan started 45 days in advance.The new version in the second year of Zhenguan was 75 days ahead of schedule.Counting, there are still 72 hours left for the new year of Zhenguan's third year.

Speaking of the New Year, Li Yuanxing said: "Cui Shangshu, you just happened to do me a small favor. There must be no problem with the household department in terms of allocating supplies. Some things are ready for me. This time, I will pay for the expenses this time. .It can be regarded as military expenditure, and there is no need for the Ministry of Households to approve the money separately."

"It costs a lot?" Cui Junsu asked with a smile.

"How much is hard to say, but next year, or the year after, is it possible for the Ministry of Households to come to spend? Let's see after this year. After today's celebration, we will hold a meeting at my General Tiance's mansion tomorrow. This matter still needs to be done. I have peace around Datang, so this money cannot be saved.”

"Then let's talk tomorrow!" Cui Junsu didn't ask any more questions,

The reason related to the tranquility of the surrounding area is very powerful, and it is impossible not to give money.

The celebration to welcome the cabinet master lasted until late at night. Whether it was singing and dancing, cross talk, acrobatics, or magic, the nobles and businessmen who came to participate laughed until late at night.

The last time is gambling on stones, some people are happy while others are sad.

However, if you buy three yuan, even if you lose it, it won't be too bad.

After they broke up, Li Yuanxing originally planned to go back to the mansion, but was left behind by Li Er, even the cabinet master did not leave.

"Brother Huang, we will discuss something the day after tomorrow, and I have to go back to sleep today."

"The day after tomorrow, what are you going to do tomorrow?" Li Er wanted to ask right away.

"We'll have a meeting tomorrow, and we're going to discuss the matter of the New Year's celebration. There's also the matter of the New Year's labor." Li Yuanxing told the truth, and when Li Er heard it, he immediately said: "Don't go back. We'll have a meeting in the palace tomorrow."

Li Yuanxing didn't care if he didn't leave or left.

Li Lanshan had to go back, Li Yuanxing sent Li Lanshan to the main entrance of the palace: "Are you still used to it here?"

"It's actually quite good. But your rough stone is a bit expensive. You should buy some ordinary ones, depending on the price of silver or copper. Only green ones are available, and the price of gold you marked is about the same. Let's forget it tonight Forget it, you are the biggest winner, after a long time, it is not a good thing."

Li Lanshan didn't say whether she was used to it or not, but instead persuaded Li Yuanxing.

Li Yuanxing smiled and nodded: "Success, it's up to you. By the way, two things, Wu Zhao, you need to put those four flying boats in order, and they will be used during the Chinese New Year. It will be around No. 15 of the twelfth lunar month. Lan Shan, fuck you , Seeing that my concubine is very free, I will teach them how the New Year’s Gala is going to be, this will be done on New Year’s Eve today, the military parade on the New Year’s morning, and the parade of floats.”

Li Lanshan nodded, this matter is not difficult for her.

It was Wu Zhao who asked, "What do you want flying boats for, and there are only four boats at a time?"

"Go pull the jadeite, are you going or not!" Li Yuanxing whispered close to Wu Zhao's ear.

"At the end of November, I promise to fly for you."

After Wu Zhao finished speaking, she dragged Li Lanshan to get into the carriage, but Li Lanshan was a little reluctant and looked back at Li Yuanxing several times.For her, Datang is still a strange place.

After Wu Zhao pulled Li Lanshan into the carriage, he said, "Don't worry about him, you still have a lot of things to do right now!"

"I, have many things?" Li Lanshan really didn't understand.

"The first thing is that you need to receive the document from the Ministry of Rites. Then go to the ancestral temple to hold some kind of ceremony, and then you can truly be regarded as a princess. The second thing is that you have to give names to the maids around you. Of course, if you are not satisfied You can change again. However, I don’t recommend you to change. These two people were selected for you by Li Yuanxing and Empress Changsun from thousands of people. The third thing is that Zhuangzi made a match for you and me. You have to take care of your neighbor's yard and your own house. The last thing, in the next three days, you are going to visit the Empress Changsun, who is the emperor's wife, and then the four noble concubines of the Holy Majesty, because their The title is higher than ours. There is also a eldest princess, the eldest emperor's aunt, and that is also higher than ours."

Wu Zhao said a lot in one breath, and then asked Li Lanshan, did you understand?

"Aunt Chang Huang is the aunt of the Holy Majesty, right, the sister of the Supreme Emperor."

"Yes. The rest are not as good as ours. Three days later, for about half a month, they will come over in batches at about three o'clock every afternoon until seven o'clock. This is an audience, these ladies Gifts are bound to come, and then you need gifts in return."

Wu Zhao told Li Lanshan again.

Li Lanshan asked back: "Should I worry about these things?"

"You beg me, I'll help you!" Wu Zhao smirked.

Li Lanshan put her hands on Wu Zhao's shoulders: "I beg you very seriously, please help me!"

"You, you, boring!" Wu Zhao angrily knocked off Li Lanshan's hand, but Li Lanshan just smiled happily.

Wu Zhao sighed lightly: "Okay, there is a chief eunuch named Zheng He in the mansion. There are also several female officials. They will list the list and choose gifts for suggestions. The final decision is still up to you. .This, I think, you can ask Li Liyuan for advice, after all, they are also the first daughters of a great family."

"Well, half of the problem is solved like this!" Li Lanshan clapped her hands lightly.

"There is one more thing, listen to me. This is not a joke!" Wu Zhao lowered her voice, with a serious face, and whispered in Li Lanshan's ear: "Li Zhi in history, and his sister who was not born . " As soon as Wu Zhao finished speaking, he immediately covered Li Lanshan's mouth.

Li Lanshan didn't exclaim, she was surprised, but not too surprised.

"In the beginning, Li Yuanxing asked Sun Laodao to check his pulse and take care of his body. Originally, he said that he could not conceive within a year, but you know, I think Li Yuanxing must have taught you the exercises that he practiced. The 29-year-old Empress Changsun may live another 50 years , so even if there is another child, it will be two years at the earliest."

Li Lanshan knew that technique, she had met Zhang Chufa face to face.

He didn't speak, but Zhang Chuchen's age was listed there. People in their 40s looked like they were only in their 20s.

Even if Empress Changsun doesn't plan to take care of herself, Emperor Li Er of the Tang Dynasty will do everything possible to let her take care of her.

Li Lanshan nodded silently: "It seems that it has really changed."

"There are still many things you can't imagine. After you have dealt with these etiquettes, I will take you to Yaozhou. That is really our territory. Up and down, we agree!" Wu Zhao said with some pride.

Li Lanshan looked very envious: "Really, then I must go!"

"You, it's so boring, it's too fake to pretend to be excited!" Wu Zhao fought with Li Lanshan for a long time, how could he not understand Li Lanshan's character.

Li Lanshan laughed: "So many people come to visit me, what about grandpa?"

"Grandpa will probably be busier than you. There will be a lot of banquets and banquets in the next three months. However, Grandpa has a special status. His return gift and schedule. Qin Wangfu's chief Shi needs to worry about it. Several Sima, join the army, and Master Bo will not dare Slack. So, we just have to fuck our hearts out."

Li Lanshan nodded, indicating that she understood.

At this time, in the palace, Li Er's study room.

Li Er, Li Yuan, Li Jing, Li Yuanxing, and Mr. Gui, five people sat around a table. There were only simple snacks on the table, followed by tea, but no wine.There are no eunuchs and court ladies, only these five people with the surname Li.

"Wulang said, Uncle will be in command in the battle against Baiyue?" The real purpose of Li Er's leaving Li Yuanxing was to ask this. Li Er couldn't bear the big event of opening up the border and expanding the territory tomorrow.

The cabinet master nodded, and then said to Li Yuanxing, "Xing, do you have a map?"

"Yes!" Li Yuanxing found the map on Li Er's bookshelf, and Li Jing made a space on the table to help Li Yuanxing put the map on it.

"Fighting Baiyue, we must first divide it into quick battles and protracted battles. The chance of capturing the entire Baiyue in a quick battle is less than [-]%. As a commander, you can't gamble on the [-]% chance. So we must consider protracted battles, Baiyue In this place, the rainy season can last up to half a year, that is to say, it rains for half a year."

The master of the cabinet has studied the place of Annan too deeply, and has recorded almost all the information in his mind.

Li Yuanxing also added at this time: "If it rains every day, the artillery will definitely not be useful."

"Let's not talk about artillery, don't even think about heavier things. There are too many rivers and swamps there, and the movement of heavier ordnance is one-tenth that of the plains, so you don't have to think about it at all. There, logistics depends on ships , but the river is impassable, so the main line relies on boats, and the branch lines rely on legs!"

Hearing the cabinet master's explanation, they are all experts in war.

Baiyue is like a horse trap, and cavalry may not be useful in most areas.

What's more serious is that it is possible that even the carriage needs to consider whether the road can be walked.

"For a long time, the first consideration is logistics, the second consideration is stability, the third consideration is advancement, and the fourth consideration is integration. The fifth and most difficult one is that they will fight guerrilla warfare!"

Li Er didn't understand the term guerrilla warfare, neither Li Yuan nor Li Jing had ever heard of it.

The cabinet master nodded at Li Yuanxing.

Li Yuanxing said very seriously: "Sixteen-character mantra, when the enemy advances, we retreat; How much, how much you come, how much you lose.” (To be continued.)
