Chapter 605: The Matter of the Displaced People

Refugee.

Those who do not obey the discipline of Datang live in Datang and do not pay taxes and are not registered, called exiles.

There are many kinds of displaced people, one of which is war.

During the war, many people did not have enough to eat, and their lives were unstable, so they simply ran to the mountains and forests and lived a free and easy life.

There is also a kind of people who really can't survive, and under the pressure of the famine or the landlord, they run directly to the mountains and forests.

Others went from county to county in droves, causing great unrest.

Such a situation has happened in all dynasties, and it has become a matter of great vigilance and headache for those in power.

Because such displaced people are easy to bring turmoil to society, if someone with a heart uses it to incite it, it will cause great losses, and it is not impossible to change the dynasty.

It's noon today.

In the palace of diligence.

After Li Shimin showed the knives to the ministers, he showed a look of being worried.

At that time, everyone was a little puzzled, what is the emperor?

It was the eldest grandson Wuji who was the first to ask, and said, "I don't know what Your Majesty wants to discuss with us?" ”

Li Shimin withdrew the knife and placed it on the table.

looked at the huge map of Datang hanging on the front and sighed.

Then he slowly spoke, and said: "My Datang is extremely rich, and the people are becoming more and more stable, everything seems to be prosperous in the world, but I am still a little uneasy." ”

"Your Majesty, I don't know what else you are worried about?" Wei Zheng stood up and asked, "Your Majesty, what dare you ask that can make you, the high-ranking king, so worried?" ”

"You Aiqing don't know that those who are registered in the Tang Dynasty are all the people of my Datang, but those who are not registered live in my Datang, and they are also my people." Li Shimin sighed, looking worried about the country and the people.

"It is reported that in the grassy mountains and forests of the world, the number of displaced people is comparable to the number of people who have ascended the throne, and I want them to become the real people of my Tang Dynasty." Li Shimin said.

When everyone heard Li Shimin's words, they couldn't help but fall silent.

If it's those who go around in groups, it's easy to do.

But those who have gone into the deep mountains and old forests, it is difficult to find them.

"What can you do?" Li Shimin asked.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that since they are outcasts, most of them are unruly people, and they should be appeased." Wei Zheng stood up and said.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that we should open a warehouse to release grain, divert the people out of the mountains and forests, and reduce the rent to relieve the people's hardship." Fang Xuanling stood up and said.

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, kill!" Wei Chi Gong said angrily: "Kill the disobedient, kill all those who are disobedient, and those homeless people will be obedient." ”

"It's not proper, the displaced people began to arise during the war a few years ago, although they are not registered, but they have not caused unrest, how can they be killed?" Wei Zheng glared at a pair of eyes and said, "It's better to send someone to appease them, let them settle down locally, and divide the land." ”

"In this way, even with me, the Tang Dynasty is flourishing, how can there still be displaced people?" Li Shimin said loudly: "Whether it is the displaced people or the tribes in the southwest and northwest, they are all the people of my Tang Dynasty!" ”

"In my lifetime, I want to make the Tang Dynasty no longer distinguish between Hu and Han, no more Huayi, no more barbarians, no more Rong Di. I want to unify the world, and all races are the same! ”

“……”

……

Li Tai sat next to him, and he saw his father pretending to be forced.

No, it should be Li Shimin, who is quietly watching, recounting what happened at noon today.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Guogong and they are here." Just as Li Shimin was saying that he was excited, a figure walked in and said.

Li Shimin, who was interrupted, glared at him very unhappily and said, "Let them in." ”

"Whoa!"

Li Cheng answered, and then walked out.

"This old man has been able to live until now, it is really your kindness, Daddy." Li Tai couldn't help but say secretly.

After a while, I saw the eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling and others walking in from outside.

"Meet Your Majesty!"

Everyone walked into the main hall and said in unison.

"Ladies and gentlemen, excuse me." Li Shimin was extremely happy and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the matter of the displaced people has been resolved!" ”

"Oh? So fast? Wei Zheng couldn't help but be stunned, although a general direction had been discussed at noon, it was impossible to solve it so quickly.

"Now, the Duke of Qian has laid down Dali and controlled the land of Yunnan, because I should be recruited to the land of Yunnan." Li Shimin said with a smile: "In the name of the government, a notice was issued, and the government will not blame anyone who is willing to register and make a register, and if they are willing to go to Yunnan, they will be given land and exempted from all kinds of taxes within five years." ”

"This is a good idea in the end, this is the south of the clouds in this Yunnan has always been barren, there is not much land, if there are so many people suddenly pouring in, I am afraid that it will cause turmoil." Wei Zheng frowned slightly, and said, "This lack of food and land, how can you afford to support so many people?" ”

"Old father-in-law, this is filtered, although the land of Yunnan is not as rich as the Central Plains, but the climate is still good, and the mountains and forests have been reclaimed, isn't that the land?" Li Tai smiled slightly and said: "What's more, now that my Datang has high-yield crop seeds, let them bring them to the land of Yunnan, it only takes a year, and they can have food and clothing, it is better than them being displaced and taking the beasts as their company." ”

"Father, the affairs of the displaced people are also a state affair, although the Tang Dynasty is now strong and prosperous, and the displaced people have done nothing, but if natural and man-made disasters come, the displaced people will become the first to overthrow a dynasty!" Li Tai said.

Among the dynasties that have been plagued by exiles in history is the Tang Dynasty.

The strength of the Tang Dynasty became precarious under the Huangchao Uprising, and as for the Ming Dynasty, it was destroyed by Li Zicheng, and the result was cheaper than the Qing Dynasty.

"The words of the green sparrow have won my heart." Li Shimin said happily.

If the matter of the displaced people can be solved, it will be quite beneficial to the stability of Datang.

Although the displaced people have not come out to make trouble, it is also a big security risk.

Who can guarantee that the world will be smooth at all times?

"Father, rest assured, as long as we work together, we will be able to solve the problem of the displaced people." Li Tai said: "Although it is difficult to recruit homeless people, as long as they are people, they have weaknesses, and if they find their weaknesses, they will obediently go to Yunnan." ”

"Those who do things are either rich or food, and those who are displaced are just for food, if they can eat enough, who wants to be an outcast?" Li Tai said.

"What Qingque said is very true."

"Yes!"

"This can be done!"
