Ji Tang

Chapter 993 You Ning: I disagree!
After the discussion that day, Ji Song returned home without stopping. When he saw the eagle slave, he asked directly: "How long will it take for falconry to resume?"

Although Eagle Slave was surprised why his master was so anxious, he still said: "Three days, at least three more days!"

"Three days?"

After calculating the time, it took more than three days for the falconry to return. If it took less than four days, it would be calculated as four days.I spent another two days recuperating at home, so six days passed.

At least it will be more comfortable when I go back. If I count it as five days, I can have five days free, which means there are still two days free.

But thinking about any accidents that might happen on the road, it's better not to delay.

"In this way, after four days of rest, let me know immediately when the time is up."

After saying that, he was about to leave, but then he stopped!
"You go pick out a tame falcon and let it follow you when you leave. Remember, choose the best one."

After all, he was still a little worried. After all, anything could happen on the road.In addition, what Wang Xuance and his party did was beyond his expectations. For the sake of the future, it would be better to send another one to avoid any accidents and then regret it!
"Master, don't worry!"

After receiving Yingnu's assurance, Ji Song felt relieved.

He had long forgotten Ying Nu's real name. Although he was a Turk, he was just an oppressed slave.Since coming to Chang'an, Ji Song has not treated him badly.

He had everything that other people in the family had. For this reason, Ji Song specially brought all his family members to Datang to live there.Now they make a living by slaughtering cattle and sheep.

He is now married, to a Han woman, and has three sons and one daughter.Compared with the grassland, life is like heaven and earth. There is no comparison at all.

The method of taming the falcon was Ji's top secret. Even if the emperor asked for it many times, Ji Song would fool him.This is a life-saving skill.

The eagle slaves also knew this. Except for the eldest son who had already worked in Ji's family, none of the other sons had been taught the skills of falconry.That is to say, that kid Ji Ze is interested in these and wants to learn.

After consulting Ying Nu, Ying Nu did not hesitate and happily taught Ji Ze.

The boy also lived up to his expectations and learned it in no time. To this end, he personally trained the newborn eaglet.The two beside him now were the ones he had tamed.

Although Ji Song didn't say anything, everyone knew that this falcon was a gift from the family master to the second son.In the future, even if Ji Run is in charge, he can only ask Ji Ze to help him tame them, and he cannot rob them.

Of course, this is only if there is no eagle slave at home.

In this era of slow information transmission, a safe and reliable way of transmitting information that can travel thousands of miles is no less than an army of ten thousand people.

Therefore, no matter what, the skill of taming falcons must not be passed on to others, not even to the emperor.

For this matter, Li Shimin often pointed at his nose and scolded him as a white-eyed wolf.He also said that I would do whatever I wanted to you, and that I would not give up even one of your falconry skills.

But Ji Song always went in from the left ear and out from the right ear, so he didn't take it seriously.

This was a life-saving skill he left to his children. After he left, even if the emperor wanted to deal with Ji, he would have to think clearly about the consequences of doing so.

It is easy to kill people, but it is difficult to train a falconer.

The reason why the eagle slave can tame and tame eagles is inseparable from his talent.From what he finally learned, the eagle slave accidentally got a small eagle when he was a child, and with his seemingly innate ability, he gradually successfully tamed it.

Ji Song, the emperor, and others have never thought about training falcons in recent years.But animals are much more sensitive than humans.Eagles are naturally proud birds, and their vigilant character basically eliminates the possibility of being domesticated.

This means that although there have been many tamed falcons since ancient times, they were all obtained by chance, and it is basically impossible to tame them on a large scale.

But the eagle slave is different. He has an herb in his hand that can calm the eagle. This herb is made from a variety of herbs.It is with the cooperation of this secret medicine that small-scale falcon taming can be achieved.

However, apart from Ji Song, Ji Ze, and Ji Run, only Yingnu and his eldest son knew about this matter.And it has been listed as Ji's top secret.

For this secret, all the herbs have been renamed. Even if someone gets it, no one will pass it on by word of mouth, and you will not know what the herb is.

Not to mention configuration.

Only then did Ji Song realize why the ancients cherished their broomsticks so much.

It's not that I don't want to, but I can't.

In this world dominated by clans, even the emperor regards the world as his own private property.Talking about selflessness, why was the family so feared by the emperors of the past dynasties?

In the eyes of aristocratic families, the family is first and the emperor is second.

When encountering a family's life or death, the first reaction is to preserve the family. This is the current situation of this era.

People are selfish and no one can change this.He will go through life and death for this country and this nation, and he will not hesitate to die for this, and he has not hesitated for a long time!

But once the emperor's power or someone threatens his family, he will fight back without hesitation.

He has the thoughts of later generations and is unlikely to accept the die-hard loyalty. He cannot do it and is unwilling to do it.

In my previous life, I was heartbroken with my friends, blaming the ancients for not being able to keep some good things.

Put yourself in your shoes, when a thing can help you, your family, and a clan member with blood ties to live and work, will you hand it over?
There are thousands of people behind this. If it comes to Ji Song, he knows he can't do it.

Don't tell others to be kind without going through their suffering.

If you haven't experienced other people's suffering, why are you blaming others?
Just like before, he kept coming up with some tools that would only be available in later generations.Column carts, curved shaft plows, waterwheels, etc.But what now?Did he see the waterwheels all over the mountains and plains?Have you seen farmers owning their own columbines?

Except for the Quyuan plow, which can be easily copied, all other items have now become tools for powerful families to exploit poor people.

What you can't afford is still unaffordable. Even if you can afford it, it will eventually be bought away for one reason or another.Whenever you need to use it, you can only take the money to rent it.

No wonder when I took out these things, each one of them could praise themselves to the sky, wishing they were a sage and holding themselves high.

Even though he was a 16-year-old feudal lord, few people came out to stop him. It was as if the previous rules had disappeared for him, Ji Song.

A lot of fertile land has been mined in Guanzhong, but what about now?
As the population of Guanzhong increased, the land became insufficient.If it hadn't been for the fact that many landless young men had fled to Jisuzhou in the border area some time ago, Guanzhong would have had to transfer grain from outside the Guanzhong again.

His previous proposal to the emperor to restrict the foreign population from settling in Guanzhong was to prevent the possibility of land being concentrated again.You know, in this era, which family can move thousands of miles is a simple one?

To put it bluntly, they are either officials or from wealthy families.What was the first thing they did when they came to Guanzhong?
Buy a field!

That’s right, it’s about buying land. Where does that land come from?It is not the land of ordinary people.

When everyone is in trouble, selling land becomes the only way out.It can be said that those who moved to the foot of the imperial city are not short of money. They will buy fertile land with the short-sightedness of the common people and the high price they cannot refuse.

After that, it used this as a foundation to continuously devour the surrounding fertile land.If you have good land and a beautiful house, do you need someone to take care of you?So there were servants, but where did these people come from?
It’s not just those people who can’t survive and have no land.

Just imagine, what will happen when more and more people like this are imprisoned?
The increase in the number of powerful and wealthy people means that the number of people living around them is increasing.A wealthy family requires at least dozens of people to worship and serve.

Grooms who keep horses, maids and maids who serve them, groups of concubines, porters, attendants, guards and so on.There has been no production in these years. Although they rely on the rich and powerful families to survive, they do not seem to have invaded the common people's fertile land.

But don’t forget, where do the rich and powerful get their money?
If this continues, in less than 20 years, one-tenth of the 300 million people in Guanzhong will have their own land. It is because of the mercy of these gentlemen.

When Ji Song proposed restricting household registration, both Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling looked at him like a fool.

They wish Ji Song would do such an offending thing. It's not like they haven't thought about it, but no one dares!

But Ji Song doesn't care, just hate him if you hate him, can you still eat him?

However, this is only a temporary solution rather than a permanent solution, and it is also a compromise under a desperate situation!
There are some people who cannot be banned. Those with vested interests, such as royal relatives, relatives of the country, powerful families, are not subject to this rule.It is impossible for the emperor to strictly prohibit it.As long as they don't do too much, they won't interfere.

After saying so much, he just wanted to say: Go to hell with your poor broomstick!

Do you have the ability to truly share with everyone the things that make you a living?

Every aristocratic family has its own trump card, and aristocratic families have a way of survival that is not spread to outsiders.They have spent their millennia verifying many things, and these things are their trump cards.

Even if time changes and the sea changes, no matter what era, they may be weakened or fragmented, but as long as the foundation remains, they will always rise again at the right time.

What kind of grassroots counterattacks and what kind of self-made things are all nonsense!
There is an old saying that says, why should the wealth gained through the efforts of three generations start from the same starting point as you?
Why do the Han people know how to be diligent and thrifty in managing their families?Why do people like saving differently from other nationalities?Like to leave your wealth to future generations?
That’s because thousands of years of experience tell them that as long as they are praised more in this life, future generations will be able to go farther!
He does not deny that there are some proud men of heaven and some people who are like the goddess of luck surrounding them.But how many such people are there?I'm afraid one may not appear for hundreds of years, right?

It's time to leave some escape routes for yourself.

He does not have the ambition of a great man, nor does he have the majestic energy to have endless fun fighting with others.

He just wants to improve this country and nation while not letting his relatives get hurt.As for changing the world, leave it to others!

The fire has been left behind, and the thousands of students at Taibai Academy are his fire, and they are also the most precious thing he left to this era!
Several direct disciples are also left as a way out for the future. If things go wrong, he will not hesitate to send these people away to a place where no one will disturb him to continue to realize his dream!

He thought a lot that night, and even woken up several times in his sleep. Seeing his panic, You Ning didn't sleep all night, and kept looking after him until dawn!

"Husband, are you awake?"

As soon as You Ning came in from outside with a bowl in hand, he was so happy when he saw her husband waking up!

"Come on, this is the soothing soup that I asked for from Taoist Sun some time ago. Drink it while it's hot!"

Ji Songgang stretched out his hand, looked at You Ning's worried face, picked it up and drank it in one gulp!
"Cough cough!"

Perhaps because he drank too much, he choked. He coughed a few times and You Ning patted him behind him again, which made him feel better.

"Look at you, why are you so anxious? I'm not trying to rob you?"

You Ning looked distressed. She didn't know what was wrong with her husband during this period. He often had nightmares at night and talked nonsense about his parents, airplanes, and running away.

In order to make his husband feel at ease, he could only hug him tightly, hoping this would make him feel better!
There was even one time in her dream that her husband cried like a child. His helpless look made her heartbroken!
She knew she couldn't help her husband and often blamed herself for it.All she can do is stay with him silently and prevent him from feeling lonely!
"Did I say anything nonsense at night? Didn't I scare you?"

Ji Song put down the bowl and said it as if he didn't mean it.

"How can it be!"

You Ning smiled a little reluctantly and just said: "You were in a daze when you spoke. You don't know what you said, and you can't hear a word clearly!"

Ji Song knew from the look on her face that she wasn't telling the truth, but how could he not know what was going on in her heart after being her bed partner for many years?Since you don’t want to worry yourself, then don’t ask.

"Tomorrow you take the children to the academy to stay for a while!"

You Ning, who was washing her husband, gave her a slap in the face. After waiting for a long time, no sound was heard. Ji Song was a little surprised. When he looked back, he was shocked!
"Why are you still crying? I'm quite busy these days, so I don't have time to look after you. I would avoid causing panic at home and it would be bad for the children to see you."

It's okay not to mention this, but You Ning cried even louder when he mentioned it.

"If you don't leave, I won't leave!"

You Ning hugged her husband tightly, buried her head in his chest, and said as if she was dreaming: "I know I can't help you, but all I can do is stay with you and watch you."

"They say husband and wife are one, and you always take care of everything yourself, but did you get my consent? I'm telling you now: I don't agree!"

"I am your wife. If anything happens, we will face it together. Even if the enemy comes, I would rather die for you than to live in peace."

She looked at her husband with pleading eyes, but said firmly: "Husband, please don't leave me. Okay?"

The string in Ji Song's heart somehow moved. Looking at his determined wife, he felt the meaning of the word wife for the first time.

"Okay, okay, they say that when a husband and wife work together, they are more powerful than gold. I, Ji Song, want to see what they can do to me?"

Ji Song hugged his wife, feeling suddenly calm for some reason!

With a wife like this, what can a husband ask for!
Even for his wife, mother and children, he still has to support them in this world of cannibalism.

A piece of sky that can protect them from the wind and rain, and avoid the wind and waves.
