Datang Nongwang

Chapter 945 Xisha King

I returned to Beijing on the first day of November.

It has been more than ten days since I came back.

Li Chongyuan has been staying in Lizhuang.

Either walking around with my son in my arms every day, or going to Liuzhuang.

Of course, from time to time, he would accompany Li Yuan around and talk.

Sometimes I went to the brown sugar refining side to see the situation.

Going to Liuzhuang was because Li Chongyuan decided to marry Zhu Ying before this year, so he had to show his face from time to time.

Zhu Ying's family waited for Li Chongyuan for another year, and if they didn't marry, they would really have to worry about their little lady Zhu Ying.

But Li Chongyuan did not return to Chang'an.

There is another main reason.

That is, I have been away for nearly a year, and my son is almost one year old. The father and son are really strange, so take advantage of this time to warm up the father and son.

Moreover.

There are many things in Li Zhuang.

Although the expansion of various high-yield grains in Lizhuang this year has ended, it is up to Li Chongyuan to decide how to proceed next year.

of course.

This expansion of planting refers to more than just Li Zhuang.

Among them, including Li Chongyuan's Yuanzhuang, and several nearby Zhuangzi are within the scope of expanded planting.

to this end.

The landlords of various villages have recently found Li Chongyuan and talked about food.

after all.

The common people want to eat, and the landlords want food. Li Chongyuan has to deal with these.

Although Qiao Su had dealt with it, the landlords of each village always felt that the high-yield grain was produced on their own land. Who would want to watch so much grain enter Li Chongyuan's granary.

to this end.

For these landlords, you can talk to Qiao Su less about this matter.

If Li Yuan hadn't been in Lizhuang, perhaps these landlords would have regretted their positions long ago, and they might even lead people to rush into Qiaosu's granary built by Li Chongyuan under Li Chongyuan's instructions to snatch the high-yield grain.

Also because Li Chongyuan came back.

For these landlords, they even went to the door twice a day.

Unfortunately.

Li Chongyuan didn't even want to see them, and even asked Tang Li to lead people to drive these people away. He even said that if anyone repented, he could go directly to the government to sue him.

How dare these landlords sue.

The land lease contract was signed at the beginning, and this signing was for ten years.

stipulated in the contract.

How much grain Li Chongyuan paid to the local owners every year, or converted into money for them according to the grain price of the year.

Of course, the agreed amount of grain must be higher than the grain yield per mu, even [-]/[-] higher.

Otherwise, how could these landlords be willing to sign such a contract with Li Chongyuan.

But it was because of this contract that Li Chongyuan was unwilling to talk to them.

If anyone dares to make trouble, Li Chongyuan can definitely use the land lease contract to get him.

It was stipulated in the contract that whoever went back on his word would be compensated ten times the amount of grain grown by Li Chongyuan.

If Li Chongyuan repented, he should also use this method of compensation.

Those landlords who dare to go back on their word.

For example, the landlord of Liuzhuang owns [-] mu of land in Liuzhuang.

Li Chongyuan first planted potatoes on the two thousand acres of land, and then planted corn.

In conversion, the yield of 600 mu of potatoes is 120 catties per mu, a total of [-] million catties of potatoes, and the yield of corn is [-] catties per mu, totaling [-] million catties of corn.

If the landlord of Liuzhuang repents, then he probably won't be able to pay Li Chongyuan all the land, or even all his family property.

For example, a catty of potatoes is worth one penny, and corn is worth two pennies. This year, it is worth eight or nine thousand guan, and ten years is worth eight or nine thousand guan.

Who can afford to pay for so much money, but don't end up in exile.

tell.

These landlords dare not sue.

But they are greedy for the high-yield grain produced from their own fields.

With so much food, they are not the only ones who are greedy.

Quan Chang'an's honorable officials and everyone else were envious.

There are more hungry people.

Li Chongyuan was not at all afraid that someone would dare to attack his food.

Even if I am not in Chang'an this year, Li Yuan is still there, who would dare to reach out?

Moreover.

this year.

Whether it's the imperial army or the generals of the Xiang family, they are patrolling and guarding day and night.

Li Chongyuan heard from Jin Neishi that although someone stole it, in the end, he was either thrown into the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice or killed by him.

And in this year.

How many people have been slaughtered, the golden servant himself can't count.

In Lizhuang.

Li Chongyuan has many things to deal with.

For more than ten days, it has not stopped.

now.

Wang Li suddenly ran to say that he was going to attend the court meeting two days later, and Li Chongyuan realized that he hadn't returned to Chang'an for several days.

Simultaneously.

He even recalled that no matter whether he was in the Judicial Temple or the Sinong Temple, he had never asked about the affairs of these two temples, and he didn't know how the two temples were doing this year.

"Director Wang, I will go back to Chang'an tomorrow. As for the big court meeting the day after tomorrow, I will definitely attend." Li Chongyuan hurriedly agreed after hearing the words.

After Wang Li got his words, he went back to Chang'an to return his orders.

Li Shimin is about to confer a reward.

Wang Li said that he was the first to contribute to the Eastern Expedition.

Li Chongyuan had to attend the Great Court Conference.

and.

Li Chongyuan also wanted to know who the people from Goguryeo were, and even more so, what kind of situation Goguryeo was in right now.

night.

Li Yuan and Li Chongyuan were sitting in the main room, while they were warming up by the fire, they asked, "Yuan'er, what are your plans for next year?"

"I don't have any big plans. I didn't go to Qiongdao this year because of the Eastern Expedition, and I don't know how the situation in Qiongdao has been this year. Although there was a letter from there, the letter was full of meaning. Vague. So, my nephew plans to go to Qiongdao next year, and after understanding the situation, I will see if we can promote those high-yielding grains on a small scale in the next year." Li Chongyuan replied.

Li Yuan nodded, "If you have a plan, you have a plan. Uncle is afraid that you will forget your original intention after the Goguryeo incident."

"Uncle, don't you understand your nephew and grandnephew? Your grandnephew is not the kind of half-hearted person. What your grandnephew decides to do will not stop. Besides, after the first battle in Goguryeo, your grandnephew understands even more. Farmers and people live a happy life. It's not easy, we people should think about the future for the people below." Li Chongyuan responded affirmatively.

The next morning.

Li Chongyuan returned to Chang'an.

It was only after returning to Chang'an that Li Chongyuan remembered that his two aunts were left in his house by him.

The carriage turned around and headed towards his mansion.

And this mansion is not the county prince's mansion, but Li Chongyuan's previous mansion.

Before anyone entered, Li Chongyuan heard Chen Huan's loud voice, "Shande has forgotten us, he must have forgotten us. It has been more than ten days since he came back, and after leaving us here, he is Run away. Next time we meet, I will beat him until he has teeth all over the floor."

"Okay, Huan'er. I'm afraid Shande has been delayed by many things, otherwise, he will not come back." Chen Juan was comforting Chen Huan.

Li Chongyuan was a little nervous.

Nervously beaten by Chen Huan.

But no matter how afraid, Li Chongyuan has to go in.

After all, he forgot about it, and he couldn't escape being beaten.

but.

Before entering the door, Li Chongyuan made himself a little messy, as if he was very busy.

Then, he raised his foot and walked inside.

Chen Huan, who was still furious, and Chen Juan finally showed up when they saw Li Chongyuan.

Chen Huan, who wanted to rush forward and really wanted to beat Li Chongyuan up, saw Li Chongyuan's disheveled hair and tired face, suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked angrily: "Li Chongyuan, since you returned to Chang'an, you left us here What do you mean! You'd better not tell me, you are so busy that you don't even have time to come here."

Chen Juan looked at Li Chongyuan's messy hair, and saw that Li Chongyuan's face was tired, and he didn't show anger, on the contrary, he showed more concern.

"Auntie, Aunt Huan, I'm really sorry. I'm so busy that I can't wait to spend two days in one day. Aunt Huan, you don't know something. I planned to expand high-yield grain planting in Lizhuang last year. , and this year has indeed spread out, involving seven Zhuangzi. These days, I have been busy with high-yielding grain, and I really can't get away from it. I haven't returned to Chang'an to visit the two aunts. This is my fault. My fault." Li Chongyuan pretended to be very hurt.

After hearing this, Chen Juan approached Li Chongyuan, "Shande, no matter how many things there are, sometimes you don't need to do it yourself, otherwise, why are you raising so many people?"

"Forget it. Since you are busy with food, I won't beat you up. But, you have to bring us my little nephew as soon as possible. Second Miss has been talking a lot these days." Chen Huan After hearing the words, he waved his hand.

It's good not to beat yourself up, it's good not to beat yourself up.

Li Chongyuan rejoiced in his heart.

Let your son come over, it's easy.

Without further ado.

Li Chongyuan ordered Tang Li and the others to go back to Lizhuang to hold their son.

Chen Juan and the others, who got the word, heard that they would see their nephew in a while, and they were so excited that they never stopped.

And Li Chongyuan also pleaded guilty, saying that he still has official duties to deal with.

Chen Juan and Chen Huan didn't even ask, they just told Li Chongyuan to leave quickly, and they said that business is the most important thing.

Li Chongyuan was helpless.

This is having a son, forget about me as a father.

More than an hour later.

Tang Li took Xiao Huo'er back to Chang'an, and delivered it to Chen Juan and the others.

When Chen Juan and the others saw how cute Xiao Huo'er was, they hugged her and didn't let go.

And Li Chongyuan in Sinong Temple, after hearing the report from the guards, a smile appeared on his face.

After seeing Sinong Temple, Li Chongyuan went to Judicial Temple again.

After listening to Zhong Gui's report in Judicial Temple, Li Chongyuan frowned.

According to Zhong Gui's report, although the Judicial Temple was under Li Chongyuan's instruction during this year, Zhong Gui barely managed to complete the establishment of the various divisions of the Judicial Temple.

As for drafting the law, or implementing the law, nothing has been done.

In fact, Li Chongyuan also knew.

The establishment of the Judicial Temple is simple.

But Li Shimin is not in Chang'an, and he himself is not in Chang'an. It is estimated that this imitation of the law will eventually be resisted or silently protested.

Moreover.

Li Zhi, a little guy, even if he can do some small things, but about this matter, he is dodging endlessly, and he dare not make decisions at all.

Moreover.

With the presence of Gao Shilian and Cheng Yaojin who objected, and they said some unpleasant things about Li Chongyuan in Li Zhi's ears, the affairs of Judiciary Temple were basically left idle.

But fortunately, the Eastern Expedition is over.

Li Chongyuan also felt that it was time for the Imitation Department of the Judiciary Temple to officially start.

This is not.

After Li Chongyuan came to the Department of Illustrative Laws, he directly gave a loud instruction, "Everyone listen to me. I want to see the few laws I mentioned take shape within ten days. Don't tell Li Chongyuan you Can’t do it. If you can’t do it, then I will beat you until you can do it. Although you are part-time officials when you come to my Judicial Temple, but once you come to my Judicial Temple, you have to listen to me, Li Chongyuan, because I, Li Chongyuan, are the Holy One The Secretary of the Judicial Temple!"

Ten days.

Li Chongyuan gave them only ten days.

After all, the Chinese New Year is only one and a half months away.

What Li Chongyuan thought was to complete all the things he set up at the beginning years ago, and then submit them to Li Shimin.

Li Chongyuan has no control over Li Shimin, but on his one-acre three-point land, if these people dare to jump, even if he goes back to the Yushitai tomorrow, or to the Ministry of Punishment, or even to the Dali Temple, Li Chongyuan will run to him The yamen beat him so hard that he couldn't find his teeth all over the place.

With Li Chongyuan's intimidation.

A group of officials from the Department of Imitation immediately started their work on imitating the law.

Li Chongyuan didn't care about them anymore, he left Judicial Temple directly and went back to the original mansion.

Don't let your son be spoiled by this violent woman, Chen Huan.

Day two.

Early in the morning, Li Chongyuan got up, put on his official uniform, had some breakfast, and went to court.

The location is still the same, but the people have changed for the better.

Fang Xuanling was demoted and assigned, and his eldest grandson Wuji died in Anshicheng in Goguryeo, leaving two ministerial posts vacant.

even.

Even Cen Wenwen, who accompanied Li Shimin's personal expedition, suddenly became ill after capturing Anshi City.

After returning to Chang'an, I heard people say that Cen Wenwen seemed to be dying.

to this end.

Even the position of the prime minister, the servant, was vacant.

Sitting on the throne, Li Shimin glanced at all the officials in the court. He didn't know whether it was feeling or worry, and sighed softly, "My dear friends, today's court meeting does not discuss state affairs or other matters. .Today, I'm going to talk about rewards."

Li Chongyuan listened to Li Shimin's words, and saw that he was not in a high mood, probably because he was feeling that more and more old people were gone.

After finishing speaking, Li Shimin waved gently to Wang Li.

After receiving the king's ceremony, he took the imperial decree and walked out.

"According to the will of the sage, the servants will announce the edict on their behalf." Wang Li bowed to Li Shimin before he began to speak.

All court officials looked at Wang Li.

Wang Li spread out a silk imperial decree and looked at Li Chongyuan, "The emperor personally conquered Goguryeo. In the battle of the march, he attacked Liaodong in the north and the coast of Goguryeo in the south. Zhang Liang, the Duke of Yun, was given the post of general manager of the seaway march. The king of Lijun played his conspiracy, and the evidence is conclusive. In the battle of Goguryeo, Li Chongyuan, the king of Xisha County, should have made the first contribution. In order to add one level to the rank of official, one level of noble rank was bestowed on Li Chongyuan. However, Li Chongyuan has already become the Minister of Judiciary Temple, and there are many lacks in the court, so Li Chongyuan is also appointed as a servant, and Li Chongyuan is bestowed with the title of King of Xisha."
