Li You's Tang Dynasty

Chapter 501 The Rebellion Begins to Marry Cui Xiuniang
Li You marrying Cui Xiuniang should be the only way to save Cui Xiuniang at this time. If Li You marries Cui Xiuniang, then it means that Cui Xiuniang must have been perfect when Li You rescued Cui Xiuniang.

After all, no man would marry someone who had been defiled by water bandits. If so, Cui Xiuniang's rumors would be self-defeating.

Secondly, if Li You marries Cui Xiuniang, Cui Xiuniang is also willing, and there will be no such strong resistance. In the end, as long as Li You marries Cui Xiuniang, the alliance between the Cui family and Li You will be even closer.

Cui Changshun knelt down to Li You, begging for a way out for his daughter, but Li You really couldn't agree to it.

In the end, Li You had no choice but to agree. To be honest, Cui Changshun was so happy that he rushed to Xu's house and cried with his daughter. Seeing his father crying like this for the first time, Cui Xiuniang also chose Forgave my father.

It's just that my father forgave, but Cui Xiuniang did not forgive her family. Since then, Cui Xiuniang has never returned to Cui's family. Fortunately, her mother and father often go to Dunhuafang.

As for Cui Mingan, when Cui Xiuniang's grandfather died, Cui Xiuniang didn't go back. It is conceivable how much Cui Xiuniang hated the Cui family.

"Ah, we're married. We're married.!" A group of children cheered.

Three days later, Bianzhou held a wedding for Li You and Cui Xiuniang. The only Cui family in this wedding was Cui Changshun, and Cui Xiuniang was taken to Bianzhou Governor's Mansion from the Xu family.

Cui Xiuniang recognized Xu Yi's uncle as her adoptive father, got a title and married from Xu's family.

Xu Yi's uncle is also very interesting. He gave a large amount of dowry for his newly recognized goddaughter, and almost took out half of Xu's family. The Cui family in Boling had to marry at a low level.

Cui Changshun expressed his gratitude to the Xu family, but what Xu Yi's uncle didn't expect was that he took out half of the Xu family's property this time, and then, Li You actually gave half of the dowry that he planned to give to the Cui family to the Xu family.

A bicycle, thirty bottles of perfume, ten pieces of crystal jewelry, a one-meter-high ben clock, three watches, one hundred crystal beads, etc. The Xu family made a rough calculation of this half of the dowry, at least a small one hundred thousand. .

More importantly, these things are something that can be encountered but not sought after. You don't know how many people in Bianzhou are drooling when Xu Nian rides a bicycle and wears a watch to shuttle around the city of Bianzhou every day. down.

But even if these people want to buy it, there is a price but no market, because even Chang'an has no bicycles, and there are only five bicycles a month. It's their turn.

Later, they also thought about making it themselves, but the bicycle looked simple, but they really wanted to make it. It was just a matter of springs, and they couldn't make it at all. Li You's these things entered the Bianzhou market directly in advance. , and then he also made his reputation in Jiangnan. In the future, Li You's things entered Jiangnan, which is also a matter of course, because everyone has been looking forward to it for who knows how long.

In this way, Li You and Cui Xiuniang also got married. That night, Quan Zhixi and others did not disturb the couple. Li You and Cui Xiuniang just leaned against each other and looked at the pair of red candles in the room. .

"I really didn't expect that after going around and going around, I would still marry you." Cui Xiuniang smiled shyly.

"I didn't wrong you, right?" Li You stroked Cui Xiuniang's temples with his hand.

"Of course not. What am I, if it weren't for you, my best result now is to commit suicide to calm the hearts of those Cui family members." Cui Xiuniang curled her lips slightly.

"Don't say that. You are always like this. Your father will feel uncomfortable. He actually loves you very much."

"I know that my mother, my father, and my brothers all love me, which is why I don't fall out with the Cui family, but I will never go back to the Cui family again.

I, Cui Xiuniang, was born to you, Li You, and died to your ghost, so, You Lang, you must treat me well. Even when I'm old, don't dislike me. " Cui Xiuniang leaned on Li You's arms with some dependence.

"Let me tell you the truth, in fact, the first time I saw you, I already liked you?" Li You smiled slightly.

"Really?" Cui Xiuniang struggled out of Li You's arms and said, "Then why don't I know, if I knew earlier, I might be the princess."

"Hehe...!" Li You smiled: "It's really possible, but it's not realistic. After all, you are the daughter of the Boling Cui family, and what am I? you."

"Hey, it's my fault. At that time, I only knew how to play, and I didn't know love at all. If it is now, hum...!" Cui Xiuniang slightly straightened her little nose.

"What's wrong with you now?" Li You looked at Cui Xiuniang with a smile and asked.

Cui Xiuniang's small eyes suddenly changed, revealing a charming little expression: "Of course I tempted you so that you never want to leave me!" After finishing speaking, Cui Xiuniang directly threw Li You down.

"Ah female hooligan." Li You yelled, and then there was no sound, and he had a dream all night without trace.

When Li You got married in Bianzhou, in Chang'an, Li Chengqian had already made all the preparations, and in three days, Li Chengqian would attack Li Shimin's Jiucheng Palace.

Now, within fifty miles of Li Shimin's Jiucheng Palace, Hou Junji and other troops loyal to Li Chengqian have gathered, and these people are all commanded under the name of Hou Junji, including Li Chengqian's army, but what Hou Junji did not expect is that, At this moment, Yin Hongzhi was stalking behind him.

What Hou Junji always thought was that after taking down Li Shimin, he would bring his soldiers back to Chang'an, and then directly take down Li Chengqian. In Hou Junji's heart, this Li Chengqian was his pawn.

As everyone knows, the real pawn is Hou Junji himself.

Yin Hongzhi secretly prepared 1 people, together with Li Chengqian's [-] Tibetan soldiers, and waited for Hou Junji to get his hands on him, then rushed over to kill Hou Junji, and then blamed Hou Junji for the crime of regicide set.

Li Chengqian is not a fool, he has actually seen through Hou Junji long ago, but Hou Junji has not seen through Li Chengqian, Hou Junji thinks too highly of himself, always has his eyes above the top, thinking that he has destroyed a country before, so much so amazing.

This is a fatal weakness of Hou Junji.

Jiucheng Palace. In the dog days, the average temperature is 21.8 degrees, the breeze is blowing, the fragrance is fragrant, refreshing, Li Shimin is sitting in a courtyard, and there is a small pond in the corner of the courtyard. There are a few lotus leaves on the pond. The lotus is about to bloom, and several dragonflies stand on the lotus.

Li Shimin took a sip of ice water leisurely and said with a smile, "You'er is really amazing."

"What's the matter?" Changsun Wuji on the side heard Li You's name, and immediately asked Li Shimin with interest.

At this time, Li Shimin replied with a smile: "You'er was sent by Chengqian to Bianzhou to suppress the water bandits, and it has achieved initial results, and has wiped out the biggest water bandits in Bianzhou.

And Yuer gave me a form, wanting to set up a yamen of the Shibo Department. Come on, Wuji, Ma Zhou. You all have a look, do you think this Shibo Department can be established? "

After finishing speaking, Li Shimin showed Li You's upper form in his hand to Changsun Wuji and the others to read, and after everyone had read it one by one, Ma Zhou was the first to say with some joy: "This Shibo Secretary of His Highness King Qi It is really a stroke of genius, and the taxation of merchants on the water can be used to strengthen the water power of our Datang.

It is really a good way to get it done once and for all, and I think we should agree with His Royal Highness King Qi's proposal!"

"But... I just don't know if the ten draws is too high." Cen Wenwen said slightly: "You must know that many passenger ships are owned by the big families in the south of the Yangtze River. Your Highness is just one ten draws. Those big families are not willing to hand over. What should I do?"

"Why don't you want to pay?" Changsun Wuji snorted: "We all know that these cargo ships are very profitable, as long as they transport the goods back and forth, they can earn several times the price difference.

Many of them also like to sell secretly, and don’t pay taxes to the court at all. Now there is a yamen dedicated to this matter. The minister thinks it is a good thing, and one tax per ten should be paid.

After all, our navy is to protect their safety. If they don't give them, the entire ship's cargo will be robbed, and they will suffer. "

Changsun Wuji is very displeased with tax evaders. After all, taxation is very important. Any dynasty is very strict about taxation. Why?This is the lifeblood of the country.

If there are too many tax evaders, the taxes will not be collected. If the taxes are not good, the soldiers at the border will starve, and they will not be able to make good bows and arrows. Who can you beat?

These cargo ships often evade taxes, find a secret location to unload, and secretly transport them into Chang'an without going through the government. This can save a lot of taxes. Such tax evasion is sometimes helpless.

When Changsun Wuji was in the household department, he also thought about attacking, but because the navy was not good, he returned without success every time, so Changsun Wuji also hated these cargo ships.

At this time, Changsun Wuji bowed to Li Shimin and said: "Your Majesty, the establishment of the Shibo Department is definitely a good thing for us. The price difference that these cargo ships can earn is very high, and no one will object to ten taxes.

As long as the Shibo Division can be on the right track, maybe our court can collect a little more tax. Even if it can't be charged more, it can improve the combat effectiveness of our navy. Why not improve our navy? "

"Hehe...!" Li Shimin smiled: "Wuji, you and I have thought about it together. I also thought about it for a while, and found that this city bureau is not harmful to our court at all. I am going to let Youer go." Toss and toss, if you can't toss, at worst, it will be fine to return to the original state.

We have nothing to lose.! "

"Your Majesty is wise...!" All the ministers nodded in unison.

"Everyone agrees?" Li Shimin smiled and said, "Then I will decree that the Shibo Department will be established by Li You, and it must be completed before returning to Beijing."
