167 The Evolutionary Inspiration of Sheep Cannibalism
Li Yuanxing's theory of sheep cannibalism has been proven to be credible by actual practice, and there is still room for greater development.
It can be said that officials of the third rank and above in the Tang Dynasty more or less knew that sheep cannibalize people. The difference is that those with real status had the original text recorded by Wei Zheng, Fang and Du at that time. Those with low status naturally only
It could be a rumor or a simple transcript.
The head of the Seventh Family, Cui Junsu of the Cui family in Qinghe, received a handwritten copy, but he copied it from the two copies of Fang Du Erxiang with his own hands, and it was completely the same as the original.
After Cui Junsu spent three consecutive nights reading Li Yuanxing's essay on sheep-eating humans word for word, he asked the Cui family's direct descendants and nephews to memorize this 10,000-word essay, and those who failed to memorize it would be severely punished.
Personal comment: If you don’t read The Theory of the King of Qin, you don’t know how vast the sky is. If you don’t read Sheep Eating People, you don’t know the general situation of the country!
This comment is not only known to the direct descendants and nephews of the Cui family, but also to everyone in the Seventh Generation family.
Wang Jishan of the Wang family in Taiyuan made a milder comment: If you don’t read the Theory of the King of Qin and don’t read Sheep Cannibalism, you are not qualified to serve as an official!
The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty had a night banquet with all his ministers, and more than a dozen people came to the banquet.
Among them, Fang, Du Erxiang, Gao Jian, Changsun Hu, Wang Jishan, Cui Junsu, and Li Yuanxing are acquaintances. The others, Li Yuanxing, let alone their names, are very unfamiliar, and they seem to have been seen in the court.
, but Li Yuanxing really can’t remember.
At this time, just from the color of the clothes on these people, it was determined that these people were at least the third level.
"I'm in a good mood today!" Li Er made an opening remark: "The fun of today's game is really interesting. I will let Wu Lang teach you the fun of the game someday, but tonight I think the game of this country should be more interesting!"
The fun of gaming?
The ministers still don't know the magic weapon of mahjong, but Li Yuanxing believes that after they learn it, they will definitely become familiar with mahjong. If the Tang Dynasty didn't make a single move, the mahjong army would number millions, and the sound of mahjong rolling could be heard endlessly!
Li Er's tone changed and he returned to the topic: "Mohe is a tribe of barbarians! They are brave and warlike, and they also plundered the people of the Tang Dynasty, but they have a feud that is far stronger than theirs. Wu Lang ordered Mohe to surrender, in order to
Fight to support the clan, fight to the wealthy, fight to gain the merits of our Tang Dynasty, fight to enjoy the nobility of our Tang Dynasty."
With a slight smile, Li Er stood up slowly and continued: "Goguryeo, the former Sui Dynasty was defeated by him. How many Han people's bones were wandering in Goguryeo. Wu Lang vowed not to ally with Goguryeo and not allow it to rely on it. I think so too. So...
…”
"Therefore, I should educate Mohe and weaken Goguryeo!" Wang Jishan actually stood up and replied.
Not only Li Er, but also Li Yuanxing was stunned for a moment.
Generally speaking, those who expressed support at this time should be people from the old Qin Palace. But even if Wang Jishan is the Minister of Rites, he is still the head of the Seventh Family.
Did he say this on behalf of the Wang family or the Seventh Family?
Cui Junsu stood up at this time, saluted Li Er, and then saluted Wang Jishan: "There is something wrong with what Wang Shangshu said. The education of etiquette is useful to our people of the Tang Dynasty, but it should be used first to benefit the barbarian tribes.
Later, he used etiquette, supplemented by power, and was overawed by the power of the Tang Dynasty."
Wang Jishan actually returned the gift: "Cui Shangshu said that it is a great kindness to use inducements and inducements, and then teach people to use etiquette!"
Li Er and Li Yuanxing looked at each other. The family's attitude towards the royal family was very ambiguous, which clearly supported the royal family's decision. It can be said that Mohe's strategy will affect the strategy of the grassland in the next five years, and the strategy of Goguryeo in the next ten years.
strategy.
Another person stood up to speak!
"Your Majesty, King Qin!" He first saluted, and then said: "In the ancient Han Dynasty, Han and barbarians intermarryed, and the barbarian tribes could be subjugated. Those who have made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty in Mohe can be granted intermarriage."
Next, one after another began to speak, and their thinking became more and more divergent.
"Great kindness!" Li Er praised: "That Mohe, in less than ten years, will be a part of our Datang clan. Mohe is also a member of our Datang clan, so this plan must be cautious and top secret!"
"Your Majesty is wise!" More than a dozen ministers shouted in unison.
Li Yuanxing then added: "I think the Khitans are also very good at fighting. Their skills on horseback are not much worse than those of the Turks."
"The King of Qin's plan is naturally brilliant. But Khitan and Mohe are different and should be dealt with separately!" A middle-aged official first praised Li Yuanxing and then put forward different opinions.
"I have three plans and three orders. Although they have been issued, it seems that these plans are not enough. I would like to request that an additional courtyard be added to the Tiance Admiral's Mansion, named Tiance Confidential Institute, which is responsible for studying allies and foreign countries.
Enemy country. Anything that may have contact with the Tang Dynasty, anything that may endanger the Tang Dynasty. It is better to ask Tianying Pavilion to help select personnel, and be younger."
Li Er was delighted by Li Yuanxing's suggestion.
As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, I have Tianying Pavilion to assist me in handling important affairs of the country. You, Li Yuanxing, have also brought the family into the Tiance Admiral's Mansion. They have no military power, so naturally they cannot affect the top-level matters of your Admiral Tiance, but they can help.
Admiral Tiance's Mansion analyzes everything in the surrounding states.
But it's okay, Li Yuanxing can save his brain power and think about big things.
Wang Jishan was moved, and so was Cui Junsu. From a practical point of view, the confidential court of General Tiance's Mansion was the Tang Dynasty's authority over foreign countries. To put it more realistically, there were no officials who had ever been gilded here, among the ministers.
This job means there is no hope in this life.
Li Er waved his hand gently: "This proposal is excellent, what about Tianying Pavilion?"
Tianying Pavilion!
It can be said that those who will be present are all at the level of senior ministers. Those who are not present are Li Jing and other military personnel. All civil servants can be present.
"The Holy One is wise, the King of Qin is wise!" Under Cui Junsu's lead, everyone shouted in unison.
Since Li Yuanxing gave a favor to the family, the family would also reciprocate. Wang Jishan suggested: "Young people will be more impulsive, and Tianying Pavilion should send an elder supervisor. Therefore, I thought that Wei Changshi would be the first director of the courtyard.
Wei Changshi is actually the Chief of Staff of General Tiance, so he should also take up this post!"
"Accurate!" Li Er has some reason not to be accurate. Wei Zheng is his man.
"Actually, there is a huge source of wealth in Mohe. I boldly went over the limit once and took the decision for my brother. My brother wants 30% of the profits there. I will leave another 10% or 20% for the common people and merchants to drink some soup, and eat the rest.
The Tianying Pavilion of the flesh has the final say, who pays how much and who gets how much, as long as it’s fair!”
Are Li Yuanxing's words truly transcendent?
In fact, as an emperor, it is impossible to talk about profits. Competing for profits with the people is not a saying only made by later generations.
As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there was already such a theory. It is unkind for a king to compete with the people for profit. This is a big label.
Do you want face? When you have truly reached the level of a national ruler, especially in a feudal society, you must have face, but it can be done very skillfully.
For example, at Cui Junsu's signal, an official from an aristocratic family came out to speak: "The Holy One owns the world, and the benefits derived from this Mohe land belong to the subjects of the world and also belong to the Holy One. It's just that the lower officials are stupid, but they don't know what the benefits of this Mohe land are."
, how to profit, how to pay for this profit!"
That's really nice to say.
The Holy One owns the world, which means that the world belongs to your royal family. Therefore, when the people of the world benefit, the royal family will benefit.
How to profit?
It's even more of a joke. If you occupy a newly uncivilized place, even picking up medicinal materials on the ground will be profitable.
So the real meaning of this question is, what did the royal family pay? Then, what is the focus of Mohe's interests? What are the parts that the family cannot touch, and what parts should the royal family give in to.
Li Yuanxing was really convinced. These people were really convoluted.
However, this question still needs to be answered.
"Thirty thousand permanent elites are stationed, and I have paid for the military expenses. However, 200,000 acres of land are allocated for garrisoning troops and storing grain. In the land of Mohe, trees should not be cut down lightly. Mines are a gift from God, and the benefits of mining are calculated separately. Established
At the pass, merchants without approval are not allowed to leave the pass and are not allowed to trade. The commercial tax is 15%, and the cattle, horses, and iron trade belong to the king!"
After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, someone started making calculations on the table.
Li Yuanxing clapped his hands and signaled the Imperial Army to bring in his box. Then he took out a few sets of abacus in front of everyone, and then started with the abacus that Ye Qiu Shuang had already copied.
"Brothers are still settling accounts, so you should settle them carefully."
When it comes to getting started with abacus, these are people who have been studying for decades. They don’t need to be taught by Li Yuanxing. They can make the abacus click in less than half an hour. Anyone with good speed can take the exam in modern times.
Li Er and Li Yuanxing's tables were placed together. After taking out the abacus, Li Yuanxing didn't speak again, and Li Er didn't speak either. Li Er was observing everyone's reactions. At this time, even Changsun Huhu might not be of the same mind as Li Er.
This benefit does not only belong to the aristocratic family, but should also belong to the entire noble clan.
Only the King of Qin, Li Yuanxing, dared to put the matter of profit sharing in front of the emperor without any hesitation.
Since you, the King of Qin, dare to count, why don't the nobles dare to count?
Abacus is ticking, a person who can become the head of a family, or a person who can sit in a high position as a third-rank official, not to mention reading, has profound talents in poetry, arithmetic and arithmetic.
From the first few people doing calculations with abacus, later they formed several groups.
When Li Yuanxing and Li Er had finished their dinner and the tea had lost its flavor, Cui Junsu stood up. Li Er and Li Yuanxing looked at each other and wondered, have these guys figured it out?
Li Er and Li Yuanxing were waiting for Cui Junsu to speak, but who would have thought! Cui Junsu walked to Changsun Fox. After whispering a few words, the two old foxes went to one side and muttered. After a while, even Wang Jishan joined them, and the three old foxes
Don't know what are being discussed?
Li Er's Qi-nurturing skills are naturally first-class, even super-class.
But at this time, Li Er couldn't bear it any longer. He approached Li Yuanxing and asked in a low voice: "Can Wulang do the math in advance?"
