The seven concubines of Prince Qin's palace were all supported by their maids and went back to rest.
Li Yuanxing was still sitting on his chair with his forehead in his hands, looking at the empty main hall, feeling a little numb in his heart. It was numbness!
The match factory is still owned by the Li family of Zhaojun.
When the girls went out, at least on the surface they were still harmonious, talking and laughing.
But what about the facts?
Qiuxiang came in twice in a row, but when she saw Li Yuanxing sitting there motionless, she didn't dare to disturb him. Qiuxiang was not stupid, she knew that there would definitely be a fight between the seven princesses, and the fight was about something that she, as a maid, was not qualified to do.
Think about it, whether they are fighting for themselves or their sons, it is also not something that a maid dares to think about.
The only thing Qiuxiang needs to think about is how to make His Highness the King of Qin happy.
When Qiuxiang entered the house for the third time, Li Yuanxing said softly: "Qiuxiang, go and carefully select two maids. They must be alert and literate. The most important thing is that they have good backgrounds. The ones from the former Sui officials' families are the best. If the Qin Palace cannot choose one, then
When you go to the palace to choose, just say that the king wants it, and the emperor's sister-in-law will help you.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Qiuxiang answered softly.
"Tell Lu Maofeng tomorrow and ask him to pay attention. The king needs four guards and two outstanding followers. We should choose the people first and wait until after the New Year."
"Yes, Your Highness!" Qiuxiang still answered mechanically. She would not ask more questions about what the purpose of His Highness King Qin's selection of people would be. It was her duty to do as he was told.
Li Yuanxing waved his hand gently: "Go down and have a rest. I will spend the night in the study tonight. I will send someone to watch in the palace. Your Majesty will come out of the palace to wake me up!"
Early the next morning, the front pages of the three major newspapers, the official "Datang Daily" and the People's Daily, put the editor-in-chief in a dilemma. Is it the small banker's vote that is more important, the stock exchange, or the futures exchange? In the end, is it the important one?
What about the one on the front page?
In any case, this is big news for Chang'an City.
Even ordinary people are tempted by buying a thousand shares from a steel factory that is steadily making money, let alone businessmen.
Next to Li Yuanxing's desk was the day's newspaper, but Li Yuanxing didn't even move.
Instead, he sat at the table and wrote a form.
The content is: The Xie family, the Yuan family, and the Xiao family in Jiangnan, although they were honored in the previous dynasty, were loyal to the Tang Dynasty. They contributed a lot to the establishment of the port in Hangzhou and should be commended. But as a family, they should benefit the countryside and have land for farming during the farming season.
Think of it as a stable home, with work to do in your spare time, and a prosperous home. The tea of Zhejiang and Hangzhou has been praised by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty for two consecutive years. It must be maintained. The silk of Zhejiang and Hangzhou has been ranked top three in the competition year after year. We must also work hard. Grain fields
, medicine fields, mulberry fields, and fruit fields are all fields, in the mountains and by the sea. There are also fields in lakes and seas.
The wealth of the aristocratic families lies in the countryside; the wealth of the common people lies in the Tang Dynasty.
The family has enough food to satisfy their hunger, and everyone has clothes to keep them warm.
Huating County, although it is a county, will be comparable to Chang'an in ten years!
After finishing writing, Li Yuanxing stamped it and called Yuanchun: "Send it to Cui Changshi and tell him to submit it to the Holy Emperor. Then send a copy to the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Personnel, and the Ministry of Household Affairs. Give another copy to the Ministry of Commerce, and finally submit it to Tianying Pavilion."
."
Put it into the official document box, Yuanchun took it out.
After Cui Dunli read it over, he smiled and quickly asked the scribe to copy it and send it to the palace in Li Yuanxing's own handwriting. The rest was sent to various ministries.
"Chang Shi, is this a reward or an accusation?"
After a scribe finished copying and arranged to send it out, he asked Cui Dunli.
Cui Dunli shook his head: "You are still young, learn slowly. Even if I explain it to you, you still don't understand. The purpose of this article is profound, and even I dare not say that I can see the whole picture. I can only tell you, one
Hours, two hours at most, His Highness King Qin’s petition must be shared by countless aristocratic families.”
The scribe stuck out his tongue and quickly sat back in his seat.
Is it a reward or a punishment?
Cui Dunli was also asking himself this question. Li Yuanxing was unbelievable about the Jiangnan family's practices.
Li Er sat in the palace and listened to the news about stocks and futures in Chang'an City all morning. It was almost noon before he gave the order: "Send someone to Wulang's place and tell him that I and his sister-in-law will be at Wulang today at noon."
When dining there, let him be generous this time and have at least eight dishes and one soup!"
Eunuch Gao hurried away.
Li Er took out the document written by Li Yuanxing to the Third Jiangnan Family, thought about it, folded it and put it in his sleeve.
Before Li Er left, letters from the seven Qin princesses had been sent to their respective homes.
Seven families in Shandong. Cui, Wang, Li, Lu, Zheng, five surnames and seven families!
Not just these seven aristocratic families, it can be said that the most famous aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty, those ranked third-level and above, except for those who are too old to be confused and can't move, almost all the elders of each aristocratic family are in Chang'an City. Even if there are no in the city
In order to build a house, we should also find a place to build a house in the south of the city.
The area around Kunming Lake is the first choice for aristocratic families to build houses.
Even though it was so far away, the news was not slow at all. When they left Chang'an City, they were all delivered by fast horses.
There is a slight disturbance in Chang'an City, the Imperial Palace, and Prince Qin's Mansion. As long as the silence order is not issued, the disappearance can be reported in basically half an hour, or at most an hour.
The Cui family in Qinghe is in a house called Qingxin Yayuan next to Kunming Pond. The Cui family in Qinghe has the main house, a side house, a side house, and an attached house. There are various branches, big and small. More than 70 people, Mr. Su alone, live here.
This does not include the children in the family who are quite young and have achieved academic success, but have not yet become officials.
Bang, bang, bang! Cui Junsu's father, Cui Yingying's grandfather, the old patriarch of the Cui family in Qinghe, and the previous generation head of the family. He tapped his cane three times on the coffee table next to him: "Shut up."
Everyone in the hall fell silent. Just now they were discussing His Highness King Qin's documents to the three Jiangnan families.
"Read it!" Old Patriarch Cui ordered in a deep voice to a talented Cui family man next to him.
"Letter from Princess Ying of the King of Qin's Mansion, His Highness the King of Qin returned to the Mansion, and Ying was pregnant. His Highness granted him a reward...
In a very long letter, Cui Yingying explained the situation that night in detail, and even Li Yuanxing's expression, reaction, and seemingly joking at the end were hinting to the princesses not to fight over these matters in the family.
"Is the reward heavy?" the old patriarch of the Cui family asked in a deep voice.
Whether it is important or not, the queens in the past dynasties may not have received such a heavy reward for having children, or even less than one in ten. Who dares to say that it is not important.
An old man named Cui Jiasu, who was wearing a Confucian shirt and had a white beard and hair, was sitting on the sixth chair in the first row on the right and said: "At the end of the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty was at its peak and perished. His Highness the King of Qin once said that he
At that time, the decline of imperial power was secondary. The main reason was that the wealth of the world was not in the people, nor in the royal family, but in the aristocratic families! Even if I were torn apart my old bones, I still don’t believe that His Highness the King of Qin would leave what I once commented was wrong.
Wrong way!"
The words were too straightforward.
The Han Dynasty itself perished because the aristocratic family was too large, so large that their wealth, power, and status exceeded that of the royal family.
"I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out!"
The old man of the Cui family stood up and shouted several times in succession, then sat back down heavily on his chair, panting non-stop.
At that moment, young disciples brought water and comforted the chest!
The old patriarch of the Cui family lowered his head, holding a water glass in his hand, and kept sliding the lid on the cup and bowl.
There is one thing he dare not say, that is, the King of Qin is alive and can control the world. Even if you are the reincarnation of the First Emperor, you do not dare to think of any wrongdoing in front of the current King of Qin.
But King Qin, can you live forever? What will happen to King Qin after his death?
Your Highness, King Qin, has supported the aristocratic family to an extent that makes the aristocratic family feel scared. I am afraid that if another emperor changes, they will be unable to sleep because of uneasiness.
Can you two brothers really live forever? In the future, it will be impossible for a new King of Qin to appear in the Tang Dynasty, and no emperor will dare to compare with the emperor who conquered the Tang Dynasty.
,Aren’t the royal family afraid of the huge family?
"Decline?" Another old man made a suggestion.
Patriarch Cui shook his head gently: "If you refuse once, can you refuse twice? When you refuse three times, when you look at other aristocratic families, it will be like the feeling when the Fang family in Luoyang looked at the Zheng family. Question
Patriarch, are you willing to be a third-rate family, or even a fourth- or fifth-rate family?"
"Someone...stupid!" The old man who spoke was so depressed that his face turned red, and it took him a long time to utter these words.
"No, you are right to put forward your idea, but you are facing His Highness King Qin of the Tang Dynasty." After the old patriarch of the Cui family spoke to comfort him, he continued: "Before the war in Liaodong started, the six tribes counted for three months. The battle in Liaodong may be
How much expenditure and how much income? After the war started, the six departments worked together, day and night, and spent a month continuously calculating."
It can be said that everyone pricked up their ears and wanted to hear the result.
"Actually, the results were already known during the New Year of the second year of Zhenguan. It took these four months to confirm the accuracy of the data. The answer is an error of 17 and three-quarters."
Everyone didn't understand why they knew it before, and why they spent so much manpower to verify it.
"His Royal Highness the King of Qin has a set of mathematical models called budgets. It is actually a very advanced mathematical technology composed of many rules, fixed rates, formulas, correction parameters, and many other factors. There are currently at least twenty mathematical masters in Hongwen Hall.
After studying it, the Ministry of Household Affairs has now made a small model using the introductory knowledge of this model to estimate the quarterly expenditures, income, etc. around Chang'an."
The old patriarch of the Cui family stood up.
"What I want to say is that the elites of the six tribes combined cannot compare with the brain power of His Highness King Qin. Therefore, some must be fought over and some cannot be fought. The rewards given by His Highness King Qin are unfairly distributed among the various families, so they will naturally have to fight. His Highness King Qin arranges it.
You can only do your best to do things, you can’t fight, and you can’t fight!”
Many clan elders nodded in agreement. The old clan leader of the Cui clan continued: "Compared with mind, brain power, and vision. No matter what the competition is, it is not shameful to lose to His Highness King Qin of the Tang Dynasty. His Highness King Qin is a genius, not to mention...
With the help of Princess Mingyue, how can we and other ordinary people compare to it?" (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
