Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Chapter 78
"Also, the Ailao people are not good at farming, so the local government can distribute cattle, farm tools, and grain seeds, and send old farmers to teach them skills. Within three years of going down the mountain, the land tax can be exempted. The land will be exempted from the land tax for 20 years, and his wife and children will be supported by the government!"

Hearing Xiao Cheng's promise, Old Liu couldn't help being taken aback.

She also didn't expect that the conditions offered by Xiao Cheng would be so generous.It was so generous that she even doubted its authenticity.

Old Liu couldn't help blurting out, saying:

"Is this true?"

Xiao Cheng looked directly at Old Liu with both eyes, raised his head and said solemnly:
"A word from the emperor, is it a child's play?"

At this time, even Nan Rongshu, who had been dazed by the side, couldn't help looking at Xiao Cheng in surprise.

These conditions are much better than what they had imagined before.

Seeing that the two of them didn't seem to believe it, Xiao Cheng said in a deep voice:
"There are two reasons why I am so generous. One is the situation of the Ailao clan. I am very sympathetic and willing to make up for it. Second, it is also because of the current situation in Yunguo. When I first took power, the people in the court were unstable, and the frontier army has not yet resolved Many things have already given me a headache, and I really don't want you Ailao clan to come out to make trouble again."

The situation Xiao Cheng is facing now is that the situation in the DPRK and China has not yet stabilized, and the troops outside are staring at him.And the Ailao clan, as a clan that has been passed down for hundreds of years, must also have diehard loyalists. If the methods are more drastic now, it will inevitably cause backlash.

When Xiao Cheng said this, seeing Nan Rongshu and the two nodded slightly, he continued:

"You Ailao clan want to live a stable and comfortable life, and I want to maintain domestic stability and order. The two are not in conflict. Such favorable conditions are already the greatest sincerity I have given!"

When Liu Lao heard this, he weighed it over and over again, his heart was already moved, and he subconsciously looked at Nan Rongshu.

Feeling the clan elder's gaze, Nan Rongshu just nodded silently.

Old Liu immediately stood up, bowed to Xiao Cheng, and said:
"Your Majesty, the people of the clan have lived in the mountains for a long time, and they are short-sighted. Nearly half of them are afraid of going beyond the mountains and are unwilling to go out of the mountains. It may take some time for these people to move out of the mountains..."

Well, this means to keep a hand, it should be to prevent Xiao Cheng from tricking them out of the Ailao clan before killing them.

It's just that Xiao Cheng didn't have any other ideas, and he also had back-up plans, so he wasn't afraid that the Ailao Clan would really harbor evil intentions and take the opportunity to hibernate.

He nodded, indifferently said:

"It's human nature to be afraid of the unknown. You can personally supervise the migration of the Ailao people out of the mountains."

Hearing this, Elder Liu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and respectfully said to Xiao Cheng:
"Your Majesty, the Ailao clan is extremely grateful, and I am willing to do my best for His Majesty! Ten thousand tribes are young and strong, and they will be able to gather within one month to obey His Majesty's orders!"

"Mr. Liu understands righteousness, and I am very relieved...By the way, since these young and strong are going to serve in the army, their relatives and family members must take care of them. How about this, these ten thousand young and strong relatives should follow to Chiang Mai County Bar!"

At this time, Xiao Cheng, as if he suddenly remembered something unimportant, ordered lightly.

With Xiao Cheng's high hopes for these ten thousand Miao soldiers, it is still necessary to leave some checks and balances.

As if he didn't understand the deep meaning hidden in Xiao Cheng's words, Mr. Liu bowed again and said:
"Your Majesty is kind, I am a young man in the family, thank you Your Majesty!"

Xiao Cheng also smiled gently, making the atmosphere in the hall extremely harmonious.
-
The sound of singing scriptures is solemn and solemn.Bursts of incense wafting, green smoke slowly.There is also the sound of thick bells, echoing in the mountains and forests.

In the majestic and majestic Daxiong Hall of Ganye Temple, the young presiding officer Huichi is leading the Chinese monks of the temple to do morning classes together with the current great mage Huikai.

It's just that today's presiding officer, Huichi, has always been a little absent-minded. In a trance, he even read the scriptures wrong a few times.

He was so strange, not to mention the Great Master Huikai sitting next to him, even some ordinary monks below noticed it.

After reading several scriptures, Hui Kai opened his eyes, glanced at Hui Chi who was still in a trance beside him, and coughed lightly.

At this time, Hui Chi finally came back to his senses, glanced down at the monk who was watching him, put his hands together quickly, bowed his head and said:

"After the morning class, all the monks dispersed to sweep and remove the dust."

"Follow the abbot's decree!" All the monks performed the Buddhist ceremony together, and then got up and left one by one.

After all the monks left, Hui Kai folded his palms together, proclaimed the Buddha's name, and said softly:
"Amitabha, abbot, your mind is disturbed!"

Hui Chi heard the words, showing bitterness on his face, and said:

"Master, there is news from Beijing. Wang Xiao was frightened by the assassins, and now he is staying in the palace to recuperate. Hehe, recuperating? I'm afraid house arrest is the truth! I never thought that Xiao Cheng's scheming, It's so deep! Playing stupid and lying dormant for a long time, it really turned him around."

Hui Kai heard the words, his expression was still indifferent, his eyes were lowered, and he said:

"Everything is predestined, you can't force it..."

When Hui Chi heard this, he couldn't help but become a little excited, and said anxiously:

"Master, I have been planning for so long in the Buddhist sect, and everything is ready. It is a pity that I missed this step and gave up halfway!"

Hui Kai looked at Hui Chi's expression, shook his head and said:
"The emperor's methods are superb. Previously, he closed all the gates in the capital, took over the soldiers and horses, and managed the order in the city. When the news came back to the temple, all the officials in the court and the army in the capital had been controlled by him. At this time, the overall situation has been decided. Forcing is also doing useless work!"

Hui Chi shook his head again and again, his breathing was a little short, and said:

"No, no, there is still a chance! Wang Xiao is under house arrest, and his confidantes among the frontier army will definitely be terrified. As long as I secretly encourage them, and I, as the clan, pardon his crimes, they will definitely obey orders. When the time comes, the inside and outside will cooperate, then... ..."

"Abbot!" Hui Kai's expression turned serious, and he interrupted Hui Chi abruptly.

"Abbot, we were originally weak, not as strong as Wang Xiao, so we had to sit back and watch Wang Xiao threaten the emperor, thinking that after he usurped the throne and aroused public outrage, he would call on the entire Yun Kingdom to revolt and finally return the Xiao family to power!"

"The reason for Wang Xiaoxu and Wei Snake is for the sake of the people of Yunguo and the Xiao family! But now, the emperor has put Wang Xiao under house arrest, and the government has returned to the Xiao family. Everyone is happy, why not?"

Huikai showed helplessness, and tried to persuade him.

Hui Chi's face turned blue, he shook his head again and again, stood up abruptly, and said angrily:

"Xiao Cheng endured the humiliation and pretended to be stupid. He must be a man with deep scheming and evil guesses. Before that, the temple stood by and watched him being bullied by Wang Xiao. It's hard to guarantee that he didn't remember it! If he thinks about it, he will be grateful There must be catastrophe in the temple! As the abbot, I must not sit back and watch this happen!"

Huikai opened his mouth to persuade him, but before he could open his mouth, Huichi flicked his sleeves and said decisively:
"I am the abbot of Ganye Temple, and the upper and lower temples in Yunguo are headed by me. It is also the clan of Yunguo, and there is righteousness in it. As long as you ascend the throne, Yunguo will be transformed into a Buddhist kingdom on the ground. I also invite the master, because of the great merit, And the monks in the temple, help me!"

Hui opened his mouth, hesitated again and again, and finally let out a long sigh, folded his hands, closed his eyes, and lightly recited the Buddha's name, as if he had no choice but to acquiesce.

Seeing that Hui Kai acquiesced, Hui Chi felt relieved, gave him a Buddha ceremony, turned and left.

Waiting for Huichi to leave, Huikai slowly raised his head, looked at the compassionate and solemn place in the Daxiong Palace, and looked down at the golden Buddha statue below with pity, his eyes were deep and calm.

　There are more than 70 chapters of foreshadowing. When I wrote it, there was a kind of gossip that had been hidden in my heart for a long time, and I was finally able to express it. . .
