Volume 1 At that time, he was young and thin, and he was thin Chapter 538: The Pillar of the Country
After the end of the first month, Princess Gu'an's resignation from Beijing is not big news for most people. The various tongues she caused as a concubine back then have long been no longer a topic of conversation with the passage of time. However, many well-intentioned people still heard that she had Concubine Wu Hui to set up a banquet to practice before her departure, and Princess Yuzhen Princess Jin Xian and Princess Ning and other nobles of the clan accompanied her, how many princesses of Hefan could enjoy this kind of scenery?
At this moment, when Princess Gu'an was stationed at Maba Bridge and took a deep look at the Chang'an City that gave birth to her and raised her, but now it can't accommodate her, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Farewell, Chang'an is back again, I don't know what year and month it is
"Your lord."
Princess Gu'an glanced sideways at Zhang Yao, and saw that this confidant maid was worried on her face, so she asked lightly: "Are you worried, why did I instruct someone to add fuel to the fire and publicize that it was Yu Wenrong recommended by Du Jiulang."
Zhang Yao hesitated for a moment, and then said in a low voice: "Your lord, this is nothing more than a secret hand behind the scenes, Du Lang is kind to us after all, and since you know that the person who first fueled the trouble was the Beimen slave, why do you still want it."
"Do you think I'm going to be in a hurry and act at will without asking Du Jiulang's opinion?" Princess Gu'an motioned for Zhang Yao to come closer, but suddenly stretched out her hand with a smile and inserted a gorgeous golden hairpin into Zhang Yao's sideburns, "Out of Chang'an, no one cares about this hairpin gold and silver, this is given to you by Yuyao, I have been holding it in my hand for fear of tongue." How did Wang Maozhong know about this, it wasn't Gao Lishi who deliberately gave it to him, and Gao Lishi is not a casual person. This publicity was jointly promoted by me and Yuyao. You know, how many people are willing to stay in the DPRK and move up step by step, but some people are impatient with the struggle for power and profit, and would rather come out and do something."
And seeing that everyone who should know knows that Du Shiyi recommended Yu Wenrong, Gao Lishi deliberately showed a hesitant expression when he accompanied Li Longji to enjoy the Xingqing Palace, which was about to be expanded soon. He has followed Li Longji for many years, and this subtle change was quickly noticed by Li Longji, and after retiring from the subordinates, he frowned and asked, "Why don't you say it directly?" ”
"I don't know whether to say it or not." Without outsiders, Gao Lishi has never been so rigid in his speech in front of Li Longji, the son of heaven. Seeing that his speech at the moment made Li Longji frown and be very unhappy, he hurriedly said, "Recently, there is news from outside that Du Jiulang recommended Yu Wenrong to everyone. But I have been almost inseparable from everyone for many years, and I have never seen such a sparse performance, and when Du Jiulang faced the saint, he never mentioned this matter, I don't know where this empty wind came from? ”
As soon as these words came out, Li Longji was stunned. On the same day, in the Yuzhen Temple, he asked about the floods in Hebei and other things, and Du Shiyi didn't want to recommend Yu Wenrong, which should only be known to the two of them. Now that he has used Yuwenrong, the matter suddenly spreads, could it be that Du Shiyi is recommending Yuwenrong to show goodwill to Yuwenrong with this move, and he will seek benefits for himself in the future? No, if this is the case, Du Shiyi should not be a private recommendation, but a public recommendation. However, just as the thought came to him, Gao Lishi followed up with another sentence.
"I don't know if it's because of this, the people who came to deliver the documents from Zhongshu Province in the past few days seem to have been replaced by another right supplement, and I haven't seen Du Jiulang for several days."
Colliers has always been to the point of doing things, and this time is no different. After saying the first and second sentences, he never continued. However, what kind of person Li Longji is has been extended from this. Li Yuan's reuse of Du Shiyi, he can naturally see it, but now the news is spreading outside, and on the other hand, Li Yuan seems to have snubbed Du Shiyi, and it should not be Du Shiyi who released the news. He recalled in his heart that after he heard about Du Shiyi's recommendation in the Jade True Temple, he had mentioned it to others, and his eyes narrowed unconsciously.
"Lux, I remember how many times have you been drunk recently?"
The Tang people are good at drinking, and so is the Son of Heaven, but as the king of a country, getting drunk must be in front of the person he trusts the most, so that he will not be leaked, or be known to be drunk. Therefore, Gao Lishi immediately nodded and responded: "Everyone has always been restrained in front of people, I remember that once Concubine Hui personally washed her hands to make soup, so Bixia was slightly drunk. The other two times were banquets in the palace, and when I was drunk and lying on the platform, General Wang personally guarded the palace. ”
"I see."
Although it is only four words, in Gaolis's opinion, the heat is enough, and naturally he will never add to it.
As soon as the first month passed, because there was a leap month last year, the weather was warm early, and Du Shiyi knew that Shuzhong was about to enter the annual tea picking season, so after Princess Gu'an left Beijing for a few days, he drafted a tea introduction that sprinkled thousands of words. This is not in the Yonghui law, and naturally one stone stirs up a thousand waves, however, Li Chaoyin, who has just moved from the imperial historian to Taichangqing, seems to have been idle, but he was born in the Ming Law Department, and has served as the legal official of Dali Temple Qing and the imperial history doctor, and he approved to turn the tea from the ordinance into the law. This kind of change, even Du Shiyi didn't expect it.
In total, he only served as a palace attendant under Li Chaoyin for more than a month, and he didn't have any friendship with this old man.
The tea introduction division is the first thing that Du Shiyi really did after presiding over the two taxes in Chengdu, so this book is also to make a summary of such a thing before seeking to go out of Chang'an to Yunzhou. Knowing that Li Chaoyin's temperament is more righteous than personal friendship, he did not come to the door to thank him, but as if there was no such thing. At the same time, he noticed that Li Yuan's attitude towards him was so quick that other people in Zhongshu Province noticed it, and he couldn't help but feel at ease in his heart.
Li Yuanxing may have the reputation of being thrifty, and he may be known as upright, but he does nothing in the phase, not to mention that he is far from Yao Chong, Song Jing, and Zhang Shuo, and even not as good as Zhang Jiazhen, just to gain the upper hand in the battle with Du Xian, which can be seen. It's just a cold reception, what can't he stand it?
Although Li Yuan was reluctant to see Du Shiyi because of his recommendation of Yu Wenrong, and Du Xian had never been impressed with Du Shiyi, the tea introduction method was very important, and the tea introduction for two consecutive years was very rich, and it was the way to control Tibet, but Li Longji attached great importance to this. What can make Li Yuan and Du Xian break through the glasses is that although Song Jing, who has always been upright, has always supported Du Shiyi very much, even Zhang Shuo, who often has a disagreement with Du Shiyi, still expressed firm support for the tea quotation method after hearing the news of Du Shiyi's recommendation of Yu Wenrong.
In addition, a Yuan Qianyao, Wang Jun, who is now in charge of the household department, and Zhang Qiqiu, who is in charge of the military department, even if Li Yuan and Du Xian are the current ministers, they have to awkwardly express their support.
Wang Jun and Zhang Jiazhen said that they didn't deal with each other so much, and the relationship they formed with Du Shiyi in Youzhou that day was not good. But he has been in Shuofang for a long time, and he knows what a terrible number of silk silk to be consumed in order to ensure mutual market, so he can replace silk silk with a crop like tea, and he naturally feels that this is a long-term plan. However, Zhang Qiqiu's son Zhang Feng and Zhang Jiulang, who were so stubborn that he couldn't even do anything about himself, had almost completely relaxed the ban after a year after initially ordering the tenants used by his family not to grow tea. Today, the area of tea planting in Wu County has expanded to tens of thousands of acres, which is more than double that of before.
Tea is one thing, and sooner or later it will become another pillar of the country
Song Jingzhang said that Zhang Qiqiu and Wang Jun, although they both have official positions now, are in the state of honored veterans, so they came out of the palace after the discussion, Du Xian and Li Yuan did not look at anyone, and each returned to the door of Zhongshu, only Yuan Qianyao, the waiter, gave the four of them a ride with a smile. When he arrived at the palace gate, Yuan Qianyao suddenly pulled Zhang Shuo's sleeve with one hand and asked in a low voice, "When did Yan Gong change sex?" ”
Yuan Qianyao and Yao Chong, Zhang Jiazhen, Zhang Shuo, Du Xian, Li Yuan, a total of five prime ministers, even if there was a small wrestling, but most of the time he is a good man, even if Zhang said that he has suffered hardships, he has no bad feelings for him. Especially at this time, Yuan Qianyao's face was kind, and Zhang Shuo smiled bitterly after being stunned for a moment.
"At the beginning, for Yu Wenrong and Du Junli to be evil, it was my biggest miscalculation and I despised Yu Wenrong but did not pay attention to Yu Wenrong, so I lost as for the tea introduction method, which was originally a good law to appease Fanbang, if I abolished the public because of my own selfishness, wouldn't I be sorry for my own concept of government?"
Zhang said that the first time was because of the punishment of Princess Taiping's worship of the dragon's merits, and the second time was because of the military merits in the northwest. Therefore, he has always been unimpressed with the opening of the border, it is easy to open the side and difficult to cure the side, and the use of tea and fan is much more cost-effective than the children's jade silk
Therefore, when he said goodbye to Yuan Qianyao and returned to his Yanguo mansion, he couldn't help but show deep melancholy on his face.
Wang Han is not a tight-mouthed person, he also has one or two close chamberlains in the palace, how could he not know that when he was in trouble, Wang Han ran around, or Du Shiyi's sister and brother-in-law gave him guidance, so Gao Lishi visited him in prison, and then he made a statement, he finally gave up and did not worry about his life? Now although Du Shiyi's official position is still low, the foundation has been established, as long as this tea introduction law can be implemented, it will definitely become the pillar of the country in the future, and opponents will only be thought to be harming the public because of private interests in the future. It's a pity that he woke up a little late.
Just when the matter of tea introduction was in an uproar, an urgent news suddenly reached Chang'an.
Princess Gu'an was robbed and killed by horse thieves after returning to Yunzhou, and many people were killed and injured, and Princess Gu'an was also injured and temporarily returned to Mayi to recuperate
