Carefree Prince In Tang Dynasty
Chapter 418: No money from the court
Generally speaking, parents love their children. But sometimes, this matter may not be so absolute.
Why didn't the parents of these children come to the yamen to find their missing children? Why didn't they bring the children back? This is a difficult question to delve into. Thinking about it, it will only make people feel chilling.
Li Chengqian was puzzled about how to deal with these children. The rules of the palace are strict, and it is impossible for these children of unknown origin to enter the palace. Moreover, even if they are allowed to enter the palace, what can they do? The man becomes the servant, and the woman becomes Gong'e? Then they might as well just stay in the tooth line to keep their bodies intact.
Li Chengqian had no choice but to turn to Li Xin for help.
Li Xin didn't mind accepting these children into the palace. Although it is said that there are not so many servants in the palace, to be honest, with his current financial resources, it is nothing to raise a few more mouths. However, before he agreed to accept these children, he had a better idea.
Li Chengqian sat in the living room in casual clothes making tea. His guard stood full in the courtyard.
Li Xinwei narrowed his eyes and said, "Isn't it just coming to me? As for such a big battle?"
Li Chengqian said: "There is no way. The queen is not assured, I have to bring it."
Well, the queen eldest grandson is indeed a caring temperament.
"Tell me the business. Those kids, Brother Xin, teach me quickly, what should I do?" Li Chengqian asked with a headache.
Li Xin took a sip of his tea bowl and said, "I have an idea. Maybe we can set up a welfare house to adopt these children, and wait until they grow up, and then let them make a living on their own."
Li Chengqian's expression was a little weird. He said: "It's not impossible to set up a special orphanage. But just for the twenty or so children... As for making things so complicated?"
Li Xin smiled and said, "Who said it was just for these twenty children?"
"Otherwise?" Li Chengqian asked.
"Oh." Li Xin sighed and said, "How about you, the prince, do not go out? Have you ever wandered the streets and alleys of the capital to see how many displaced and homeless children are on the road?"
Li Chengqian was at a loss for words and couldn't speak.
Li Xin continued: "We have never had a smooth sailing in Datang. Today's situation is better. In the past few years, wars and droughts...how many people died? How many people were left homeless and unattended. Orphans? According to my estimation, there are nearly a thousand people in Chang'an alone. You know, there is more than one Chang'an in the world. You can imagine how many such children are in the entire Tang Dynasty. Isn’t your Highness going to take care of it? Do you care?"
Li Chengqian smiled bitterly: "Of course these children are very pitiful. However, if you ask you to say that, it is not a trivial matter. Even if it is just to build a welfare home in Chang'an, it is not a sum of money to maintain its operation. It’s a small amount. The treasury is not well-stocked now. If, as you said, orphanages are built all over the country, the emperor will definitely not agree."
Although Li Chengqian did not say clearly, Li Xin can also fully guess why the treasury is not well-stocked-why? Because His Majesty Li Er is preparing for the battle secretly, which one of the food, weapons, and horses is a fuel-efficient lamp?
However, after Li Xin heard Li Chengqian's words, he was not disappointed. Instead, he smiled mysteriously and asked, "When did I say that the court would pay for it?"
