Datang: What's wrong with my fief being a billion points larger?
Chapter 377: Yang Qingwan and Wu Mei's business arrangements, Li Yuanji prepares to resign
After hearing this, Yang Qingwan didn't say anything else. These were things that had been decided long ago. Li Yuanji had also told her about it, and she agreed to it.
After all, the Xuanwu Gate Rebellion is still vivid in people's minds, and it's all happening in Chang'an. If the Xuanwu Gate incident happens again in the future, Yang Qingwan really doesn't want to see it. Only when she becomes a mother does she understand the cruelty of it, because they are her own children.
If Li Yuanji lets them go and gives them a fiefdom, they can fight for themselves. Not only can they live well, but it will also be more beneficial to the Tang Dynasty. If they want their fiefdom to be bigger, they can just fight for it themselves like Li Yuanji did.
Moreover, these fiefs all belonged to the Tang Dynasty. Strictly speaking, even if Li Yuanji's descendants had fiefs, they still had to obey the orders of the imperial court.
As for whether there would be someone like Li Yuanji who would finally counterattack the Tang Dynasty, Yang Qinghe didn't think there would be. After all, there was only one Li Yuanji in the world, and as long as Li Chengye and his descendants were not too stupid, it would be impossible with the current size and advantages of the Tang Dynasty.
Everyone is aware of the power of the Tang Dynasty. Precisely because of the power of the Tang Dynasty, the descendants of Li Yuanji who were granted fiefdoms would not have any other thoughts. At most, they would expand their fiefdoms and vent their anger outside.
Yang Qingwan stopped thinking about it and looked at Li Yuanji.
"Sanlang, I plan to select some outstanding women to enter the palace. There are too few people in the harem now, and I only have four of them. Sanlang, there is no need to do this.
I already have an idea about this matter. Sanlang, please don't worry about it. How about leaving it to me?"
Yang Qingwan now takes this matter very seriously. She had mentioned it before, but was rejected by Li Yuanji. She thought Li Yuanji wanted to find it himself, so she didn't start doing these things.
But now, several years have passed and there is still no one in the harem. Yang Qingwan is also feeling panicked.
She was the mistress of the harem, and she knew better than anyone that Li Yuanji was the emperor, and it was impossible for her to be the only one in the harem. It was also impossible for there to be only her, Wei Gui, Wu Shun, and Wu Mei in the harem. For the emperor Li Yuanji, it was really shabby.
Moreover, he was not nice to her, the mistress of the harem. People who didn't know might think that she was jealous. In fact, on the contrary, Yang Qingwan really hoped that Li Yuanji would enrich the harem. Although not too many, it really couldn't be too few like it is now.
Which emperor's harem was as deserted as Li Yuanji's? Only Li Yuanji.
She and Wei Gui were both worried about this matter, even Wu Shun and Wu Mei were worried, especially Wu Mei. She was originally worried that after Li Yuanji became emperor, there would be too many people in the harem, which would squeeze Li Yuanji's time. In the end, Li Yuanji didn't find any of them.
For this matter, Yang Qingwan looked for many people, including those from civil and military families in the court, lower-level officials, and even suitable women from the common people. She even found many women in Andong Prefecture.
Andong Prefecture was originally the area of Silla and Baekje. The women there were good-looking, and Yang Qingwan had planned to pick a few of them.
This time, Yang Qingwan can be said to have looked for many different kinds of women, for fear that she would not meet any that Li Yuanji liked. By looking for some people for all of them, she can surely let Li Yuanji see some suitable ones, right?
Li Yuanji was also stunned when he heard Yang Qingwan's words, and then he felt helpless.
In fact, he really didn't want to find another woman. Now Yang Qingwan, Wei Gui, Wu Shun and Wu Mei each had their own beauty, and they had been with him for such a long time. The most important thing was that the harem was harmonious, which Li Yuanji still valued.
Another point is that he is already quite old among outsiders, and he really doesn't want to find some young women to come in, and then sometimes he has to be distracted by the affairs of the harem.
In addition to these, there is another extremely important point, that is, he is using the longevity pills on the women, and he will take them away from the Tang Dynasty later. He will not take others with him, so why bring them into the palace? To leave some mess for Li Chengye?
Now there are four, and Li Yuanji feels that it is enough. If there are more, he will be too busy to handle them.
"Madam, don't do this. I won't agree to it. I'm serious. Even if you come, I will kick them all out.
With my wife, the four of you can be together. I don't like it when there are too many people and it's too noisy. But it's good now. You can get together and chat from time to time and do your own business. I feel good about it.
Throughout the dynasties, which emperor's harem is as harmonious as mine? There is none, right?
This is it, don't do it on your own, or I will be unhappy."
Li Yuanji directly stopped Yang Qingwan from thinking of this. If he didn't have the system and became emperor, he would really expand his harem. Anyway, he had already laid the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, and the rest was left to future generations. This was all he could do, and he might as well start enjoying it early.
After all, his original idea was to develop himself and enjoy himself, and this original intention must not be forgotten.
As for what happens after death, he can't take care of that.
But it’s different now. Li Yuanji feels that it’s good like this now. If there were too many people, it would be really annoying.
Don't think that being an emperor will bring you no worries, and don't think that having many people in the harem is a blessing. When there are really too many people, intrigue will arise. One person will fan the flames, another will add fuel to the fire, and there will be many who will take advantage of the opportunity to take action. Li Yuanji felt upset just thinking about it.
Yang Qingwan looked at Li Yuanji's firm attitude and sighed in her heart. She didn't know what to say.
She felt good when Li Yuanji was the King of Qi. Now, although she felt sweet in her heart, she didn't want to be like this, which made her feel complicated and conflicted.
Li Yuanji looked at Yang Qingwan's complicated expression, took Yang Qingwan's hand, and then talked about other things. Now he had to change the topic to prevent Yang Qingwan from continuing to talk about these things.
"Madam, I have a question. Have you ever thought about it? How are you going to hand over the business you have now?"
Li Yuanji's purpose of asking this was very simple. He wanted to take a few women out with him because he had the longevity elixir. Without the elixir, people would die one day. So, for such a big business, there must be a handover. Who should be in charge of the management in the future? This was a big problem.
The businesses in Yang Qingwan's hands will either be run by the emperor or handed over to the court. There is a smaller chance that they will be run by people from her mother's family.
But these were not what Li Yuanji wanted to see. How could an emperor do business? And in the end, it would still have to be handed over to the people below. Who could know what would happen in the end?
Li Yuanji did not want to hand over the business to the court. Although the court was not short of business projects, the businesses in the hands of Yang Qingwan and others were all big businesses. They were the leaders in the industry and the absolute number one. There were too many interests involved.
And why hand it over to the court? These were originally Li Yuanji's private properties, and he didn't want to hand them over at all.
As for the girls' parents' homes, Li Yuanji had basically no idea.
But now he had to ask Yang Qingwan what she thought, and he had to start preparing for these things now.
After hearing this, Yang Qingwan looked at Li Yuanji with a smile on her face.
"I have thought about this matter and have had an idea for a long time. I plan to hand over these businesses to the inner court and let the successive queens take care of them.
The profit should be mainly used for the inner court. At least some money should be left for the emperor's treasury. If a prodigal son appears in the future, as long as he can withstand the defeat, at least he will not endanger the country and society of the Tang Dynasty. Not only mine, but also the businesses of my three sisters are like this, and they will all be handed over to the inner court in the future.
"What do you think, Saburo?"
Upon hearing this, Li Yuanji immediately laughed, a laugh that was filled with incomparable happiness and relief.
"Ma'am, great minds think alike. Isn't this a coincidence? I thought the same thing."
Li Yuanji did think so. He must not give his business to others and pass it on to future generations. After all, the emperor himself spent a lot of money, and the inner court's small treasury was not sufficient. How could this be possible?
They both laughed at once, then Li Yuanji stopped smiling and looked at Yang Qingwan seriously.
Seeing this, Yang Qingwan thought that Li Yuanji had something important to say, so she put away her smile and looked at Li Yuanji tenderly with her beautiful eyes.
Li Yuanji's voice was heard immediately.
"Madam, there is one more thing. I am only telling you this first. You are not allowed to tell anyone else. You should prepare yourself first.
I plan to abdicate in a few years, once the issue with Li Er has been completely resolved, and then I will let Cheng Ye take over.
By then, I will take you out to another distant place, a distant place on the other side of the Tang Dynasty, to start a new life and open up a new Tang Dynasty.
We can go out and enjoy the scenery and family time, what do you think?"
This was Li Yuanji's true thought. He had already decided to leave the Tang Dynasty, but he had not left yet. Not only was it because he had not yet completely dealt with Li Er's affairs, but also because Li Chengye was still too young, and Li Yuanji was still a little worried.
As for Li Er, even without him watching him, it would be impossible for Li Er to cause any trouble. Even Li Chengqian and Li Tai could not accomplish anything.
What he was really worried about was Li Chengye’s age, which was what made him most uneasy.
In the days that followed, Li Yuanji decided to enjoy himself and occupy those places in North America. Those were good places with rich resources.
Now, he has already exchanged peppers, sweet potatoes, potatoes and other things through the system, and no longer needs to get them from North America, but there are indeed abundant resources there, and Li Yuanji doesn't want to miss it.
When Yang Qingwan listened to what Li Yuanji said, her eyes lit up. In fact, dying of old age in the palace was their destiny. She really didn't expect that Li Yuanji would abdicate so early and let Li Chengye succeed him.
This is probably something that not only Yang Qingwan could not have imagined, but no one in the world could have imagined. Li Yuanji is still young and strong, and is not at the stage where he is unable to handle state affairs. Besides, which emperor did not pass on the throne only after he died?
But Li Yuanji was different. He had already decided to let Li Chengye take over after a few years. Yang Qingwan was both worried and happy.
She was happy that Li Yuanji took them out, and she also wanted to live a happy life outside with Li Yuanji while she was still alive. This was an unimaginable expectation in her heart, and now it actually came true.
What they were worried about was that if Li Yuanji abdicated early and Li Chengye succeeded early, it would be bad for the Tang Dynasty. They were even more worried that this was a test of Li Chengye by Li Yuanji. Even if it was true, they were also worried about the relationship between Li Yuanji and Li Chengye in the future.
Yang Qingwan was really worried. After all, this incident had never happened. Almost everything in the Tang Dynasty today was created by Li Yuanji alone. However, now Li Yuanji was going to resign, which would probably cause an uproar in the world.
It is true that Li Yuanji's prestige in the hearts of people all over the world is too high, so high that it is unimaginable. It is precisely because the current Tang Dynasty was created by Li Yuanji, and the people of the world can have their current life because of Emperor Li Yuanji. How can people all over the world not be grateful to Li Yuanji.
Yang Qingwan didn't even dare to think about the scene when Li Yuanji abdicated.
Yang Qingwan looked at Li Yuanji with concern, hesitated for a while whether to say it or not, and finally decided to say it.
"Sanlang, why did you make such a hasty decision? Sanlang is still young and strong, why are you in such a hurry? Let Chengye have more experience.
Besides, the matter of abdication is of great importance, Saburo must not make a decision lightly."
Li Yuanji looked at Yang Qingwan who was extremely worried and immediately smiled. This was a true good wife. She could think of these things and was not just anxious.
He knew exactly what Yang Qingwan was worried about, and he knew it even more clearly than Yang Qingwan.
"Ma'am, don't worry, I will arrange this matter, and this is just a talk for you to prepare first, the details have not been determined yet.
Now I am waiting for Yang Cheng to come back. I asked him to go out and find a place and mark the route, but he has been gone for many years and has not come back. If it weren't for the news sent back earlier, I would have thought that he had an accident.
This person is too worrying. When he comes back, you must have a good talk with him. "
Li Yuanji began to change the subject quietly. Now that he knew Yang Qingwan's attitude, he didn't want to continue talking about it and make Yang Qingwan worry in vain.
Now Yang Qingwan is pregnant, and pregnancy itself makes people tend to think too much. He doesn't want to add to Yang Qingwan's psychological burden, and it's useless for Yang Qingwan to worry about this matter, it's that simple.
As for Yang Cheng, Li Yuanji really didn't know what to say. It had been more than ten years since he left. He asked this man to find out the route to North America, but he had been gone for such a long time that he couldn't get in touch with him later.
Fortunately, this person knew to come back and ran into a small cruiser fleet of the Navy, so the news came back. Otherwise, he would really think that something had happened to Yang Cheng.
When Yang Cheng went out, although he prepared enough guards, he was afraid of the wind and waves on the sea. Yang Cheng was riding on a wooden boat.
Yang Qingwan had heard about Yang Cheng before. She had been planning to talk to him properly after he came back, as he was too worrying.
"Don't worry, Sanlang. When he comes back, I will teach him a lesson and arrange a few more wives for him. He is so old, but he has not yet married. He doesn't even have a wife. It's worrying."
Li Yuanji's mouth twitched. Is this punishment really a punishment? Is it really a lesson?
Li Yuanji didn't plan to say anything, as long as Yang Qingwan was happy. (End of this chapter)
