I have a backstage in Datang

Since there is no need to destroy the family.

Then naturally there is no need for the second generation to sacrifice.

Li Shimin put down Li Mingzhu abruptly, then solemnly clasped his hands together, and said, "May I ask what is the difference in the way of planning the family in the story?"

The question is in the story.

means in reality.

Gu Tianya showed his face and smiled, looked at Li Shimin and said: "In that story, Gu Tianya's plan imitated the 'fairy world', the aristocratic family was nationalized, tied to the royal chariot, driven by huge interests, everyone twisted into one Share the rope to engage outsiders. We, the Chinese nation in the Central Plains, are the most united party in the world..."

"If others dare to bully us as a commoner, the whole country, old and young, regardless of the royal family or the aristocratic family, will fight together. If our people bully others, the whole country, young and old, regardless of the royal family or the aristocratic family, will fight together."

Li Shimin's eyes flashed brightly, and his tone was obviously full of longing: "There is such a brilliance? Li Er would like to hear about it."

Chapter 303 [Cotton picking, the whole country pays attention to it]

That night, the family sat around and listened to a long story.

As for the content of the story, it has never been known to outsiders.

For the children, they heard an interesting story told by their uncle. Since the children are still young, they may not be able to comprehend anything from the story...

However, the children remembered what was in the story.

As they grow up, they will constantly savor the countless meanings in the story.

As for Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng, they heard a lot from the story, and it was precisely because they heard a lot that a tacit understanding was reached between the two royal families and Gu Tianya.

This tacit understanding is related to the future of the entire Chinese nation.

……

In a flash, it was five months.

Li Shimin had already returned to Chang'an with his officials.

But the eyes of the emperor and ministers have been paying attention to You Yun.

Spring has passed, and midsummer is quietly far away. This is the season of late summer and early autumn, and it is time to pick cotton.

It was supposed to be a grand ceremony.

But everyone couldn't hold back the urgency in their hearts.

Whether it is a family member or a commoner, almost everyone's mind is on cotton, and no one wants to waste time on picking ceremony.

No delay at all.

As long as the cotton is picked, it means that there is a profit. In the past half a year, both the aristocratic family and the common people have paid too much. The money and food were smashed vigorously.

I have been throwing money out, and there has been no income for half a year. Many small families with weak financial resources can't stand it anymore.

Therefore, this small family impatiently mobilized the people to rush into the cotton fields.

It was as if a horn had sounded, and it seemed that someone was finally taking the lead, so all the families started to move overnight.

More than 30 people, like a large army, rushed into the cotton fields like a tidal wave, picking the fruits of their labor.

This is a major event that touches many hearts.

Even Chang'an, which is thousands of miles away, has become uneasy.

Every family has their horses on the road, and they come towards Youyun like crazy, and at the same time, there are messengers who have stayed in Youzhou for a long time, and each of them rushed to Chang'an with the news of the harvest.

After they arrived in Chang'an and reported the cotton picking situation in Youzhou, they would immediately turn around and gallop back like crazy again.

Such back and forth continued, forming a huge team of messengers. If someone in this era can overlook the earth from a high altitude, they will be shocked to find that there are knights running wildly on the official road at all times.

Not a two knights.

But tens of thousands of messengers.

In the huge city of Chang'an, new news arrives every day.

……

For example, in the early morning of this day, the sky was still dark, and suddenly there was a sound of horseshoes in the silent night, which immediately shocked the soldiers guarding the city.

Especially the city gate order in charge of this gate, rushed to the front of the city gate with a few strides, and hurriedly greeted: "Brothers cheer up and be ready to open the door for outsiders at any time. If the general's guess is correct, this It must be the courier from another family...Grandma's, it's really hard work, it's only the fifth watch, and the couriers are all lunatics."

Before he finished speaking, the sound of horseshoes outside was approaching rapidly, and he suddenly heard someone shouting loudly, and he said anxiously: "Dare to ask which general is guarding the gate tonight, I am the messenger of the Royal Household Office, please brothers guarding the gate!" Work hard and help me open the city gate."

A messenger from the Ministry of Internal Affairs?

The gatekeeper's complexion changed, and he quickly replied loudly: "Brothers outside, don't worry, this general will ask someone to open the city gate for you."

Then he turned his head to look at the soldiers, and hurriedly said: "Hurry up, hurry up, open the door immediately."

In fact, there was no need for him to urge, the soldiers had already rushed over, first shook the huge winch, rumbled down the suspension bridge on the moat outside, and dozens of soldiers worked together to open the heavy city gate with shouts.

The messenger waiting outside whipped his horsewhip and rushed into the city gate almost instantly.

This man did not stop after rushing into the city gate, and continued to rush towards the city at an extremely fast speed. On the long dark street, he heard his thank you coming back from afar...

"Everyone has worked hard, open the door before dawn. When I have time in the future, I will definitely invite my brothers to drink. Thank you, I will report to you first!"

The gatekeeper hurriedly cupped his hands and cupped his fists, looked at the messenger's back and shouted: "Thank you, this is our duty. But don't forget about drinking, you messengers are all rich, every day Those rewards that I received, really make my brothers greedy..."

At this time, the messenger had already gone very far, but there was a hearty and long laugh, and he said haha: "Okay, I will remember it. When I have free time, I will book a treat at the Chunhualou in the city."

The soldiers guarding the gate were stunned, and said again and again: "This guy really dares to brag, and he wants to rent Chunhualou."

The city gate commander smiled, waved his hands and said, "Don't believe me, he really has this strength. Ever since You Yun started picking cotton, the guys in charge of sending letters have all made a fortune..."

He paused while talking, looked at the soldiers under his command and said, "Do you know why people send letters so desperately? That's because they get big rewards every time they bring back news. Sometimes it's money, sometimes it's silk , and sometimes because the reported news is too pleasantly surprised, the nobles who heard the news picked up a treasure and rewarded it."

He paused again while speaking, and sighed, "For example, a few days ago, Cheng Guogong waved a messenger at Cheng's mansion and threw it at a jade brave. The messenger's forehead was bleeding, but that Pixiu was rewarded after all, and it was sent to the shop in Dongshi to sell more than five pieces..."

Gum!

The soldiers guarding the gate swallowed in unison, and said enviously: "A jade brave worth five pennies? Just give it a reward?"

A soldier subconsciously looked at the long street, and suddenly realized: "No wonder I risked my life so much. If I changed it, I would risk my life. Life is only worth a few dollars, and maybe one reward is enough. It will be exhausted at that time, but the family members People of all ages have money to spend..."

The city gate commander laughed, raised his foot and kicked the soldier, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't be envious. Although the job of a messenger is enticing, our job of guarding the city gate is also very important."

The soldier sighed, and cowardly muttered: "The important thing is the important thing, but the food and salary are low."

"Bullshit!" The city gate commander snorted softly, and said with a serious face: "As a guard of the Tang Dynasty, do you only have food and salary in your eyes?"

Your soldier suddenly shrank his neck, repeatedly complained: "General, don't get angry, I said something wrong."

"Ugh!"

The city gate commander suddenly sighed, stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder, and said earnestly: "I know that your life is difficult, and I also know why you care about the salary of soldiers. Since ancient times, it is only right and proper for soldiers to eat food. Who wants to leave their wives and children to warm their beds when they are on duty to support their families? But you have to understand one thing, the soldiers of the gatekeepers cannot be compared with the soldiers of the army!"

He paused slightly, and then said: "The soldiers in the army need to go to the battlefield to fight desperately, but who of you has heard that the gatekeepers need to work hard? Especially since we are guarding Chang'an, it is almost impossible to encounter war in a lifetime." The place……"

The soldier nodded desolately, and said bitterly: "I understand what you said, but I would rather go to the battlefield to fight my life. The soldiers of our city gate are too low, and there is really no way to support the whole family."

The gatekeeper raised his foot and kicked his ass again, saying: "Okay, okay, don't put on a bitter face, this general will tell everyone the truth, your income will increase soon. Not only will it increase, And add a lot, not only will there be rewards from the court, but also rewards from aristocratic families, when the time comes, everyone will be able to have at least one or two guan..."

"real or fake?"

The soldiers rushed over with a few swishes, all looked at the city gate and said: "General, don't coax us."

One or two faces were full of anticipation.

The city gate couldn't bear it, so he gritted his teeth and woke up a little: "Since Youyun started picking cotton ten days ago, there are countless couriers running around Chang'an and Youyun every day. In order to let the couriers enter the city in time, The court ordered us to open the city gate to the messenger at any time. This is an order that all the big men care about. It is far more important than the curfew in Chang'an City. Then you can think about it, this matter is very important for us gatekeepers. What are the benefits of a person?"

The soldiers looked at each other, but unfortunately they couldn't think of anything at all, so they all looked at the gate order in embarrassment, salivating and flattering their faces: "General, you know that we are all rough people."

The city gate commander cried and laughed, and could only continue to wake up: "Because of the promulgation of this special order, our gatekeepers have worked a lot harder than usual, just like just now, the city gates have to be opened on the fifth watch. After opening the city gate, in order to ensure the safety of the city, the city gate must be closed again immediately, and then, once a messenger arrives, it must be opened again..."

"That means we work all night and all night. Everyone is exhausted and must be complaining."

"As for the bigwigs in the court, and those big shots from aristocratic families, will they turn a blind eye to this kind of thing? They will definitely not let us suffer in vain."

"If we hadn't stayed up all night to open the city gate to the messengers, how could they have heard the news from Youyun in the first place? So, we have credit."

"Since there are credits, the court must reward them. This is the rule of the Tang Dynasty, and no one will ignore it."

"Now you understand why the general said that the income should increase?"

The soldiers suddenly realized, with excitement on their faces.

But soon another soldier was puzzled, and asked embarrassingly: "General, we understand what you said about the court rewards, but why do you say that the rich and powerful families will also give rewards?"

"stupid!"

The gatekeeper glared at him angrily, and said, "How important is the news about the cotton picking in You Yun? Who doesn't want the couriers to enter the city earlier? If they don't give us some benefits, aren't they afraid that we will make things difficult for their couriers?" ?”

The soldier was stunned for a moment, and said in astonishment: "We really don't dare to make things difficult for the messenger. There is a strict order in the court to open the door as soon as possible."

The city gate commander laughed loudly, reached out and patted his shoulder, and said: "You don't understand people's hearts, but those aristocratic families do. Although they know that there are strict orders in the court, and they know that we will never dare to make things difficult for the messenger, but they still It will benefit us. After all, people's hearts are like this, and everyone is afraid of accidents. For those wealthy families, the most important thing for them right now is to learn the news of the cotton industry in time. In order to ensure this, they don't want any accidents... ..."

"So they will definitely benefit us, right?" The soldiers were all excited.

The city gate commander glanced at the soldiers with a smile, and said leisurely: "Everyone cheer up this general. As long as this job is done well, I guarantee that everyone will get money."

As he spoke, he glanced at the soldiers again, and said solemnly: "If any family doesn't do you any favors, this general will personally seek justice for you. That's fine, no one wants to treat my soldiers harshly."

The soldiers burst into cheers immediately.

Everyone knows that their general has an extraordinary background.

Although it is only a city gate order, but he was born in the royal family.Since the Battle of Xuanwu Gate three years ago, all gate guards in Chang'an City have been imperial.

...and one more chapter

Chapter 304 [A Duke's Regret]

On the other side, the Datang Palace.

At this time, it was a little after the fifth watch, and it was the time when the early Tang dynasty was about to begin.Although the gate of the Tai Chi Hall has not yet been opened, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty have already been waiting in front of the hall in advance.

There are groups of three or four, all chatting.

Only then did I realize that the atmosphere seemed very harmonious.But seeing that the ministers were chatting without strict factions, there were scenes of military generals and civil servants laughing and joking.

There is even a situation where the old-school family and the emerging forces are harmoniously facing each other.

If it was three years ago, this scene would never have happened. At that time, before going to court, the front of the Tai Chi Hall must be divided into two factions, with clear divisions and swords drawn.

Ordinarily, this situation is extremely weird, whether it is the old family or the emerging forces, it is weird, but even though everyone feels weird, they are becoming more and more accustomed to it.

Only those extremely shrewd bosses can faintly understand, this is because the internal disputes in Datang are gradually eliminated.

Ever since everyone participated in the cotton industry and Gu Tianya drew a big picture of the outside world, all the officials and aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty no longer had the mind to fight internally.

They can still remember Gu Tianya's face full of disdain, taunting them and saying: "What's there to fight for a petty profit? Thousands of years later, it will be nothing but infamy."

They also clearly remembered that Gu Tianya showed them an extremely precise map, the vast territory on that map shocked everyone at that time.

They still clearly remember that Gu Tianya said to them with confidence: "After the cotton is picked, the textile industry can start. At that time, I will lead all of you to make a fortune..."

At that moment, there seemed to be two sharp lights in Gu Tianya's eyes, and he said quietly: "All the money in the world is our Datang's money."

At that moment, everyone's eyes flashed, and there was a surge of blood in their hearts, full of longing for wealth: "All the money in the world is our Datang's money..."

……

The gate of the Tai Chi Hall opened slowly, obviously it was the time for the morning court.

But at this moment, all civil and military officials heard a rush of horseshoes, and they subconsciously turned their heads to look at the gate of the palace, just in time to see a knight rushing into the palace gate.

"A messenger?" someone blurted out.

After the messenger rushed into the palace gate, he got off his horse and rushed towards a certain direction. Although he encountered several teams of Imperial Palace Habayashi guards patrolling along the way, none of them stopped him.

On the contrary, several Habayashi guards were specially sent to sprint to protect them.

Suddenly, Liu Hongji in the official team clicked twice, looked at the messenger with envy and said, "This must be another messenger from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, bringing back the latest cotton picking news. Only one person came back last night, and it's just five o'clock now." One person came back from the sky, and it really is worthy of being the empress's property, the amount of money is beyond our comparability, using so many messengers to communicate frequently, I really can't imagine how much cotton can be picked."

Someone nearby snorted coldly, and scolded in a low voice: "Your surname Liu, watch your mouth. You must know that misfortune comes from your mouth, and the empress is also something you can talk about?"
