Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 465 Objection
Since the imperial court promulgated new decrees, disaster victims from all over the country left the land they depended on for survival and migrated to other states and counties.

The state governments around the world will also give them a little settling allowance, and even recommend some jobs for these victims, which will be included in the attendance of the local officials.

Can't help them not paying attention, this is related to the promotion of these officials.

Some of these disaster victims are already doing their old jobs, some are tenant farmers, some are blacksmiths, sell small objects in the streets and alleys, or do long-term or short-term labor for others.

Some people followed to learn handicrafts, such as embroidery, weaving, porcelain and so on.

Some disaster victims simply followed the trend and moved to the coastal areas. As the maritime trade became more and more developed, the coastal economy was getting better and better.

Chang'an, Daming Palace, inside Zichen Hall.

"Everyone! The crown prince's junior teacher Xu Jingzong presents the form. This is Xu Jingzong's memorial form." Wang Quan presented Li Chengqian the memorial form that Xu Jingzong had just handed over.

Li Chengqian took Xu Jingzong's memorial from Wang Quan, opened it and glanced at it.

"Xu Jingzong actually wants to resign from me, saying that he is old and frail, and can no longer do his best for me, and asks to be resigned and return to his hometown when he is old."

"Since he is going to be an official, I will grant him permission, let Shangguanyi draft an edict, and approve Xu Jingzong's request to resign from all official positions, but the salary will remain the same." Li Chengqian said.

No matter what Xu Jingzong's character was, at least in the past ten years when Li Chengqian was the emperor, Xu Jingzong was still conscientious in handling errands.

Now that Xu Jingzong is getting old, it is natural to ask to resign from office and retire. Although he no longer holds any position, he still has to give him a pension.

"No!" Wang Quan replied, beckoning one by one eunuch to send a message to Shangguanyi.

Half an hour later, the edict allowing Xu Jingzong to retire was issued, and a circular was issued to various departments.

"Report to Your Majesty! Xu Qidan from Zhongshushe asks to see you!" An eunuch trotted into the Zichen Hall and saluted Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian was taken aback, why did Xu Qidan from Zhongshushe come to him at this time?

This Xu Qidan can also be regarded as a nobleman. His great-grandfather Xu Wenzheng was the general of Yunqi in Nanliang, the prefect of Yangping, and the marquis of Ciyuan.

His great-grandfather, Xu Zuzong, was General Lingwei of Nanchen, prefect of Shi'an, and Marquis of Ciyuan.Prince Consort Captain.

His grandfather, Xu Fanggui, was first invited by Nanchen Fengchao, Jiangxia Wang Shilang, General Fubo, and later became the magistrate of Yan'an County in Yanzhou in the Sui Dynasty.

His father, Xu Xiaode, was the captain of the Tang Dynasty and the governor of Guozhou.Mother Jincheng County Jun Jiang.

His younger brother Xu Qizhuang, his elder sister Xu Hui, his younger sister Xu Shi, his elder sister is the concubine Xu Xian of Emperor Taizong Wen, and the younger sister Xu Shi is the side concubine of Li Zhi, "also has Wen Zao".

He was born in the southern aristocracy. He was able to write at the age of eight and was known as a child prodigy.

Counting it, this Xu Qidan can also be regarded as a relative of Datang, the uncle of the Taizong Dynasty.

"Show him in." Li Chengqian said.

"Promise!" The eunuch took the order, retreated outside the hall and shouted loudly: "Xu Qidan from Xuanzhong Shushe has an audience!"

When Xu Qidan heard the voice summoning him, he immediately straightened his clothes and stepped into the Zichen Palace.

"Xu Qidan, the scholar of the minister, see your majesty!" Xu Qidan saluted.

"Aiqing is free from courtesy! A seat!" Li Chengqian said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xu Qidan thanked him.

After Xu Qidan took his seat, Li Chengqian asked, "Aiqing came to see me, what's the matter?"

"Your Majesty! I heard that Your Majesty issued an edict to let the children of the Turkic chiefs go to the East Palace to accompany the prince. I wonder if there is such a thing?" Xu Qidan said.

"That's right! But in fact, although the Turkic people have lived in a barren land for a long time, they are now subjects of my Tang Dynasty and should be treated the same as my subjects of the Tang Dynasty. I let these sons of the Turkic chiefs who stayed in Chang'an accompany the prince to study, Be a warrior." Li Chengqian said.

Li Chengqian did this, one is to win over the Turkic people, so that they will not add to the Tang Dynasty in Mobei, and the other is to assimilate these Turkic people, so that these Turkic people will be loyal to the Tang Dynasty for generations.

Although not all Turkic people will buy it, as long as a few of them can buy it and be loyal to the Tang Dynasty, it is good for the Tang Dynasty.

"Your Majesty! I think this is absolutely inappropriate, please think twice, Your Majesty!" Xu Qidan got up and saluted.

He opposed Li Chengqian's doing so.

"Why? What's wrong?" Li Chengqian asked, if Xu Qidan could not give him a satisfactory answer, he would be demoted to another place.

"In ancient times, Ji Song and Boqin worked together. The Chu of the Jin Dynasty regarded Shi Kuang as his friend. The bandits only rely on teachers. Therefore, we also have a close look at recent studies."

"The crown prince can recruit Yuanqi by himself. Wumei should answer Liu. He is a small minister. The crown prince should introduce people with good literature to his side. How can he make Rong Di and ugly people enter the servant hall!" Xu Qidan said.

To put it bluntly, Xu Qidan looked down on the Turkic barbarians. In his perception, the crown prince, as the heir of the Tang Dynasty, should be accompanied by Confucian scholars who are both good in character and learning.

Instead of being accompanied by barbarians like Turks and other tribes, after all, the Tang Dynasty is a country of etiquette, how can it allow barbarians and vulgar people to enter the house.

In the Tang Dynasty, people with a little background did not look down on people with no status, especially the five surnames and Qiwang, which was the most obvious.

This group of nobles can't even look down on ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty, let alone the barbarians living in the great desert of Mobei.

The nobility in their bones does not allow them to have the same status as barbarians.

They felt that the prince, as the heir of the Tang Dynasty, represented the face of the Tang Dynasty, how could he stay with a group of barbarians for a long time, what if he "learned badly"?
"What you said is not unreasonable, but they are also subjects of my Tang Dynasty, how can I treat them differently and treat them differently."

"What's more, the first emperor also married the princess to the Turkic people, such as Ashinasheer and Zhishili. Aren't they also Turkic?"

"Since the princess of my Tang Dynasty can marry, why can't the crown prince recruit a Turkic person to accompany her? All my subjects of the Tang Dynasty treat each other equally without distinction." Li Chengqian said.

"But Your Majesty! Barbarians..."

"Okay, I've made up my mind! You don't need to say anything, if you have nothing else to do, then step back!" Xu Qidan wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Li Chengqian.

Xu Qidan saw that it was impossible for Li Chengqian to change his mind, so he didn't fight Li Chengqian to the end on this matter.

Turning to Li Chengqian, he said: "Qi Xiangong is your majesty's grandfather. Although your descendants have committed crimes, how can you go to Yanzu! The temple of Qi Xiangong was destroyed, and if you didn't judge him, why did your majesty show it to the world and show the spirit of filial piety!"

This Duke Xian of Qi was not the monarch of the Qi State during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but Li Chengqian's grandfather Sun Sheng.

Later, Changsun Sheng's descendants made a mistake, and Changsun's family was implicated to some extent, resulting in the destruction of Changsun Sheng's family temple, but no one intervened.

"You're right, how can the sons of the eldest grandson's family be unfilial, how can they implicate Qi Xiangong? I will have people rebuild the Qi Xiangong Temple so that they can continue to enjoy the incense." Li Chengqian said.

"Resignation!" Xu Qidan saluted and retreated.
