The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

Li Xiaogong had a certain foundation in the south, especially in the Bashu area. He led troops to pacify the south, conquer Bashu, capture Zhu Can, destroy Xiao Liang, and defeat Fu Gongyou.

Lizhou is in Bashu. After Li Xiaogong went there, he might be able to see some old people. It would be no problem for him to deal with Luo Shou.

"Although it is a new dynasty, the court strives for stability, but people's hearts are still unstable." Li Shimin said: "Sometimes, looking at the world, we discuss how to recuperate and how to formulate a series of policies to make the people live a good life, but the current problem of people's hearts is not well done."

"I have said more than once that in the new dynasty, there is no difference between the former prince party and the Qin Wang party." Li Shimin's tone was slow, but it was unquestionable: "At least now, the court, Chang'an City, under our noses, this gap has been eliminated, but I didn't expect that the problem lies at the border. Is it that the court's decree was not issued in time or accurately enough?

It has been half a year, I think, it shouldn't be like this? Ah?"

"Your Majesty, people's hearts are unpredictable. People have different ideas and different views on the court's policies. I think this matter has nothing to do with the court's policies, and Your Majesty doesn't need to worry." Fang Xuanling explained.

"People's hearts..." Li Shimin murmured, and then snorted coldly.

"Then hang Luo Yi's head on the city wall, so that those with bad intentions can have a good look at it." Li Shimin said coldly.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

Originally, it was thought that the heads sent to Chang'an City would be thrown directly into a mass grave, but unexpectedly, Luo Yi's rebellion ended up with his head on display.

If the gentle means cannot make people see the majesty of the court, then it is okay to be more drastic, so that some people can get what they want.

Luo Yi died, and Li Fu's heart was a little more settled. I am afraid that the next step will be the cleansing of Chang'an City.

Especially the Qianniu Guards in the palace.

It can't be like the Wude period, with so many mistakes.

The Qianniu Guards have to guard the palace and protect the emperor. If the Qianniu Guards are not cleaned up, I am afraid that people in the palace will not sleep well.

I had not paid attention to this matter before, but now, an assassination has made Li Shimin come to his senses, and naturally he can't turn a blind eye as before.

Luo Yi's rebellion is not entirely a bad thing, at least it provides Li Shimin with an excuse to do things.

Naturally, these have nothing to do with Li Fu.

The mastermind of the assassination is dead, and the two assassins in the cell will naturally not survive, and they all have to die.

After leaving the palace, I took the carriage home.

Dong Jiu drove the car, and Bai Yunquan and Qu Yanghe rode on horseback to guard the carriage.

Back to the house, Lao Zhao found Li Fu.

"What's wrong? Look at you, you look embarrassed." Li Fu smiled.

"My dear, when I went out today, I saw a young man with a few people. I felt sorry for them and wanted to buy them." Old Zhao said a little embarrassedly: "The mansion is not short of servants, but it is short of maids. Xiao Tao is busy with many things, but such a big house is still a little short of manpower."

"I haven't thought about this. Didn't we clear out several people in the house last year?" Li Fu remembered this.

Most of the servants in this house were rewarded by Li Yuan, and Li Fu has been using them all the time, but there are good and bad people among these people. It was checked out at the beginning. Some were stuffed in by Li Yuanji and some were stuffed in by Li Jiancheng.

Later, after these two people died, Li Fu cleared them out openly.

No more people were added to the house later.

During the New Year period, many things were done in advance, and the house was just busy enough.

In a big house, Li Fu is the master. Although all the people in the house are to serve Li Fu, there are still many trivial matters in the house that Li Fu cannot see.

"Yes, after the people were cleared out, there was no suitable person to fill in later." Lao Zhao said: "I thought that since I met them during the day, I bought them back and put them in the house. After training for a period of time, they can do things. I see that they are not old."

"Okay, you can handle this matter." Li Fu said: "You are in charge of the affairs in the house, and you can decide how many people are needed."

Since Lao Zhao said that there are not enough people in the house, it must be that things cannot be arranged.

Only the house in Chang'an City will have such a situation. It is much simpler in the manor. The house there is not as big as this one, so it does not need so many people. Moreover, the people in the house there are all from Jinyang.

But think about it carefully, it seems that there are mostly servants and guards.

At the beginning, LaoZhou also asked the same question, asking him whether he wanted to call the families of the guards to work in the house.

Li Fu thought, they are married, there must be someone to take care of the house and the children, right? If the couple work in the house, what will happen to their family? What about the children?

The house doesn't need those people, so don't cause trouble for both sides.

After Lao Zhao reported this to Li Fu, he brought the people back to the house at noon the next day and took them to see Li Fu.

"My dear, these are them." Lao Zhao said, "I spent some money to buy them from the people."

The weather at this time was not warm, and Li Fu was wearing three layers inside and three layers outside.

But the girls standing in the yard looked frail, as if they could be blown away by a gust of wind. Their faces were pale, gray and white, covered with dust and dirt, and their eyes revealed fatigue and helplessness. Their hair was messy and covered with straw. They wore old clothes that barely covered their bodies, which were covered with patches. They didn't have a pair of good shoes, and their good walking shoes were almost worn into sandals.

The girls' petite bodies shivered in the cold.

"Okay, at least we can have enough food and warm clothes when we enter this house."

Li Fu couldn't bear to see the situation of these children in front of him.

"Old Zhao, hand them over to Xiao Tao later, clean them up, change their clothes and shoes, and throw them into the firewood pile in the kitchen. Go and make a fire for Liu Niang. What the hell are these people?"

Those people are really inhuman.

"Yes, sir." Old Zhao bowed and said to the little girls, "Why don't you thank sir quickly?"

"Thank you, sir."

Several people spoke timidly and stuttered.

"Okay, go quickly." Li Fu waved his hand.

Old Zhao led them down.

Xiao Tao had another job, but after these girls were well-organized and taught in the house for a month or two, the other maids would be able to relax a little.
