Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1660 Please, Occupy Me

The so-called "aid list" is actually a thick stack of paper, just like a book...

When Zhugedi took it, his whole heart was trembling slightly, because he didn't know how much interest he had to sell the people of Linyi.

Although he is ready to be a puppet, who wants to be scolded by all the citizens?
After taking it over and looking at it carefully, his hanging heart finally calmed down.

When the most undesirable situation actually occurs, people tend to eliminate their anxiety and fear and choose to accept it calmly.

As expected...

He has never met Fang Jun, but there are legends about Fang Jun everywhere in Lin Yiguo, so he still knows something about Fang Jun.

If there were two words to describe Zhuge Di's impression of Fang Jun, it would be "greedy".

Now after reading this "aid list", Zhuge Di upgraded two words to four, which is "extreme greed"...

For example, the first item on this "list": Tang people came to Linyi Country to buy land, the land price was halved, and the first three years were free of taxes, and then they paid half of Linyi Country's taxes every year...

Isn't this an obvious robbery?

Really not, they even listed the reasons behind: Linyi country has a vast land and few people, and many lands are uncultivated. The good land has been left idle for a long time and turned into wasteland, which will cause serious waste of resources, which is not conducive to the collection of taxes by the country. Conducive to the national economy and people's livelihood...

Zhugedi really wanted to spit in front of Liu Rengui, Lin Yiguo is vast and sparsely populated?

Why don't I know?

It is true that the number of people is small, and after the night of rebellion, the population of young and middle-aged people has dropped sharply, but where does the "large land" come from?Linyi Kingdom and Annan area are bounded by Hengshan Mountain. The land in Annan to the north of Hengshan is fertile and fertile, but Linyi to the south of Hengshan is full of water and mountains, and there are not many acres of fertile land at all...

Well, this one can be tolerated. Since the Tang Dynasty is stationed in Linyi State, it is impossible to prevent Tang people from entering Linyi State in large numbers to purchase land. Although the Linyi State court will lose a lot of income, the influx of Tang people can improve the living standards of the people. no?
and also.

"Linyi lives in a corner, and has not enjoyed the culture of the heavenly dynasty for a long time. The humble people in the countryside are not convinced by the king. In view of the extremely low literacy rate of the people in Linyi, there is no famous Confucianist in the country. The Tang Dynasty is responsible for educating the world, so it will be in the Private schools are set up all over the country in Linyi, teaching Confucian classics for free..."

If it's just that, then it's great. Who doesn't admire the Han culture?

Being able to help Linyi people learn Confucian classics is a good thing that can't be asked for, but it must be added after this: "This is to help Linyi people open up the wisdom of the people. Lin Yiguo's imperial court enshrined "this one, but it made Zhuge feel as uncomfortable as eating a fly.

If I have so much money, why don't I invite the Great Confucianism professor myself, and use your Tang people to worry about it?
But this cannot be said.

People have good reasons for money to help you "open up the wisdom of the people", you can't let them pay back the money with people and effort, right?

Zhuge Di: I endure...

But then, Zhuge Di couldn't bear it.

"From now on, the people of Linyi implement the system of monogamy?"

Zhuge Di's eyes widened, and his face was in disbelief: "Since ancient times, there has never been any law restricting how many wives a man can marry... In Linyi, there has never been a custom that men are not allowed to take concubines. It's a big mistake. What's more, why the Tang people came to Linyi, and they are not within this law?"

This is simply an unprecedented joke!
Control the world, how many wives can you manage?

Liu Rengui raised his eyebrows, pointed to the "list" in Zhugedi's hand, and said, "Isn't that clearly stated? Although the Jiaduzhi rebellion has subsided, the serious consequences will need to be healed over the years. The law and order in Linyi is chaotic, especially in the countryside where the control is unfavorable, and it is bound to fall into a lawless situation. In order to prevent the occurrence of such evil crimes as seizing women, it is necessary to implement the monogamy system. The custom of your country is your Women and men, in this way, women's rights can be guaranteed to the greatest extent. Besides, not everyone can only marry one wife, as long as they have a title, it doesn't matter how many courts they marry."

Zhuge Di argued: "But why the people of Tang Dynasty are not restricted by this?"

Liu Rengui was surprised and said: "Tang people are not citizens of Linyi Kingdom, why should they accept the restrictions of Linyi Kingdom's laws?"

Zhuge Di: "..."

Liu Rengui continued: "The Tang people came here to help Linyi Kingdom rebuild a prosperous and powerful country on top of the ruins. The Tang people took concubines in Linyi Kingdom to help your country solve the social crisis of excess women. How could your country not only not I am grateful for the dedication of my Tang people, but I still want Tang people to abide by the law of monogamy? There is no reason for that.”

Zhuge was dumbfounded.

What you said is so reasonable, I am actually speechless...

Looking at the "list" that he had just read halfway through in his hand, Zhuge Di's chest was full of depression, unable to swallow, he simply closed the "list" and threw it on the table in front of him, so that he could not see it.

With the situation like this, what would he use to negotiate with the Tang people?
Just follow the people of Tang Dynasty, as long as he can guarantee the stability of his kingship, and can whitewash him in the history books, the rest is up to you...

He is not a fool, the people of Tang keep saying that they will not occupy the land of Linyi country, let alone annex Linyi country, but if things go on like this, all Linyi people will be destined to become slaves of Tang people. In the end, the Linyi race will even melt and merge with Tang people, There is no more Linyi in the world.

With such a result, it would be better to destroy the Linyi country directly. At least in that way, the Tang people would treat the Linyi people as their own people and treat them equally, so they would not treat their own people harshly, right?
At this time, Zhugedi even wanted to hug Liu Rengui's thigh and shout: Please, occupy Lin Yiguo!
I just think that as long as Lin Yiguo is still alive, I can be the king, so I have to endure this desire...

The next step was to discuss the appointment and dismissal of the court ministers. Zhuge Di fully understood his situation and the determination of the Tang people, so he simply kept silent. Whatever Liu Rengui said, then he did.

Anyway, he is a puppet, why not be an obedient and likable puppet, instead of doing stupid things that are thankless and doomed to fail?

Those who know the current affairs are Junjie...

When the business was decided, all the joyful "ministers" left and went back to take up new posts. Zhuge Di asked, "I heard that there are remnants of the Wanchun Kingdom in Annan who have made rebellions and have attacked several counties. I wonder if there is such a thing?"

It was probably because Zhugedi's cooperative attitude today made people feel happy. Liu Rengui said with a smile: "It is true, but the Wanchun Kingdom is only exaggerated by those rebels. In the history books of Nanliang, Nanchen, and the former Sui Dynasty, there is He never acknowledged the existence of the Wanchun Kingdom, Li Ben, the military officer of the Southern Liang Dynasty, took advantage of the chaos and gathered the rebellious people to rebel, Xiao gathered in the Longbian area, but they were nothing more than a gang of rogues."

Zhugedi did not cater blindly, but expressed his doubts appropriately: "However, as far as I know, Li Ben and his subordinates still caused quite a stir in the Annan area, causing the Han army to be devastated, and fought several times. Victory."

"Hehe," what kind of character is Liu Rengui?Seemingly bold but actually careful, he naturally understood Zhuge Di's little tricks. Just talking about this rare event in history, Liu Rengui was very talkative and said with a smile: "Where are there any victories? It's just those The rogues flaunted themselves. Not long after Li Ben raised his troops, Jiaozhou Sima Chen Baxian led the troops of the Liang Dynasty to defeat Li Ben, surrounded Jianing City, and then captured it. Li Ben fled to the barbarians in Quliao Cave. Ships were manufactured in the area of ​​Dianche Lake. Chen Baxian commanded the army to attack one night when the river flooded into the lake. Li Ben's troops were defeated and fled to the barbarians of Qu Liaodong. Soon after, he died of arrow sores. His elder brother Li Tianbao gathered [-] remnants. People fled to the Jiuzhen County area, fled among the mountains, and robbed their homes, just like bandits. They were defeated many times by Chen Baxian. Later, when the Liang Dynasty was chaotic, Chen Baxian led his army to go north; Jiaozhou and the surrounding areas were empty, so they returned Entered the sphere of influence of the former Li Dynasty. Li Tianbao died of illness soon, and his forces were led by Li Ben's generals Zhao Guangfu and Li Fozi respectively. A few years later, Zhao Guangfu died. In the second year of Renshou, it was annexed by the Sui Dynasty."

This is the beginning and end of the so-called "Wanchun Kingdom".

Later generations of monkeys clamored for the national heritage with a long history. The first unrecognized regime with a clear positioning was established by the Han people...

Zhuge asked: "The governor is not worried about those bandits taking advantage of the situation and going south?"

Liu Rengui smiled, and turned his head to look at the wide and clear map of Annan and Linyi on the wall, on which there was a place heavily marked with a red cross.

There is Mount Heng, and it is also the burial place of Annan's rebels...
