Fan Zhi was very disappointed to find out that their emperor really didn't follow the routine. Do you plan to become a monk if you are so pure-hearted?

Huh?

Fan Zhi suddenly remembered that their emperor had a very good relationship with the national teacher, could it be...

He was suddenly startled, and began to think about what to do if their emperor insisted on becoming a monk. Although there is no sign of this at present, there is a contingency in everything.

Otherwise, can normal people endure the days without wives and concubines?Even if you don't marry, it's not a problem to have a maid by your side to put out the fire, but... the ones who can always be by Li Congjia's side are men.

Mr. Fan felt that he couldn't understand their emperor's thoughts, so let him make troubles. It didn't look like this one was going to change the prince. They might as well try to teach the prince to be normal.

Li Congjia didn't feel relieved after Fan Zhi was settled. After all, if the position of queen is vacant for a day, there must be a minister who will take this position. When he thinks of this, he feels a headache. However, this cannot be avoided. It depends on the minister and the emperor. Who is more patient.

Li Congjia thought about it, then turned around and told everyone: Don't even think about it, the position of queen will be vacant, and there is nothing to take care of in my harem, so don't worry about it.

As for the issue of the foreign-born woman that everyone is very concerned about, this is actually not a problem at all. The rank of the foreign-born woman follows her husband. As long as the husband reaches the level, then the imperial court will provide matching treatment for the foreign-born woman. The only thing that needs to be tangled is... When it arrives During the New Year's Eve, who will host the banquet for the wives.

This is too simple, then... no banquets, in fact, if Li Congjia had to choose, he would rather not hold any banquets or the like. This kind of event is not good to eat, and watching songs and dances is just like that. The participants are tired. The organized departments are even more tiring, but this is a formality, and it is impossible to completely cancel it.

Then cancel half of it. When Li Zhongyu grows up and marries the Crown Princess, let the Crown Princess take over. Now... the foreign wives should stay at home for now.

Li Congjia's method of throwing it aside when he can't figure it out made everyone stare, but he couldn't urge him desperately. Didn't you see that the last reminder has been thrown into the barren mountains?

Oh, it's not a barren mountain, but it's also a place of poverty for thousands of years. If you want to go back to Chang'an in this kind of place, you must have very outstanding political achievements. However, that person was a censor before. Zhezi is the best at it, if he is asked to manage the people's livelihood, he is afraid that he will starve to death there.

Although everyone has the feeling of saving the world and helping the people, they are unwilling to be thrown into remote mountainous areas like this, not to mention that this is obviously not an experience but a punishment. If it is an experience, the emperor will support his subjects. If it is a punishment... I think Bar.

Li Congjia's ears became clearer, but soon, the trouble of not having a queen came again.

The leader of the party, Li Yiyin, died of illness. Li Guangrui naturally inherited his father's position. However, because they are also citizens of the Tang Dynasty, even if he has obtained the approval of the party, he still has to wait for the canonization by the imperial court, and he has to come to Chang'an to follow him. Li Congjia made contact with each other, and sent some souvenirs by the way, and brought back many rewards.

In fact, according to the customs of the Han people, carrying heavy filial piety is to keep filial piety, not to run around, and to avoid going to other people's homes, and even the number of times others come to your own home will be greatly reduced.

But who made people a minority?People didn't like this, so Li Congjia met Li Yiyin, and then a question came up—who would meet Li Yiyin's wife?

Yes, Li Congjia can meet with two people, but after all, it is a bit inconvenient. Fortunately, his ethnic minority style is very open and he doesn't care about it. The queen is going to meet the wives.

So everyone began to talk earnestly again, Your Majesty, how about setting up a royal concubine instead of a queen?

Even if the crown prince married the crown princess, the crown princess was too young at that time, so it might not be appropriate for her to be entrusted with such a heavy responsibility.

Zhao Kuangyin was a little unhappy when he heard it. Originally, he didn't care about Li Congjiali's failure at all, and he didn't have any younger sisters who could be sent to the palace. Between the younger sister being the imperial concubine and the daughter being the crown prince, Zhao Kuangyin felt that anyone with a healthy mind would choose the latter.

It's just that people look down on his daughter now, so he is naturally unhappy, but he didn't say anything, he just made up his mind. Li Zhongyu is ten years old this year, and his daughter is about the same age as Li Zhongyu. Then his daughter will not be able to stay at home for a few years.

And now his daughter's learning process... It seems that she really can't cope with such a big scene. I think that even Zhou Ehuang was in a hurry when he first became the queen. Fortunately, Queen Zhong was there at that time, and he was able to bring along his daughter-in-law.

Now the little lady of the Zhao family has no mother-in-law to take care of her!Hurry home and tell your wife to teach your daughter more about these things!

As for whether Li Congjia will re-establish a queen and affect his son-in-law's status, judging from Zhao Kuangyin's and Li Congjia's understanding of Waijia for many years, it is difficult.

Li Congjia looks very easy-going on the outside, and is usually easy to talk to, but once he has made up his mind, he is as stubborn as a donkey!

So educating your daughter well is a serious matter.

Li Congjia felt all kinds of troubles caused by the queen's absence, so he couldn't help but curse Zhou Qing again. If this guy didn't have convulsions, would he lose a queen?

However, as he stared at the emperor's harem whenever he had nothing to do, Li Congjia was convinced that everyone must be too idle, and he should find something for them to do.

Therefore, Li Congjia issued an order: the Dasuomao reading will start on the first day of next month.

Dasuo Maangyue is actually the ancient version of the census. The time since the founding of the Tang Dynasty is not too short. There were various things that were delayed before, so I have never done this kind of thing. The world has been in chaos for so many years. They have long since disappeared without a trace with the flames of war, even if there are any left behind.

No one will object to this order, and it is time to sort out the internal situation of Datang, so that everyone has a bottom line in their hearts, and some people with keen senses intuit that Li Congjia's big investigation is to fundamentally change the land allocation.

The importance of land has almost been engraved in the genes of the Han family. As long as it is related to land, everyone will become very active.

However, how does the emperor divide the land?In the past, how to calculate the land owned by everyone, can't all the land in everyone's hands be pulled out and re-divided?

To be honest, no one could keep up with Li Congjia's unconstrained ideas, and the cabinet was even more worried, fearing that Li Congjia would issue orders as soon as he slapped his head, and in turn would defeat Datang's great foundation.

This is not a joke. Throughout history, the change of dynasties is actually a struggle for land.

Dasuo Maangyue has been going on for two months. After all, Li Congjia has strict requirements and requires more accurate data. Of course, those who are hidden in the mountains and no one can find them... There is no way, these are basically isolated from the world , not to mention the present, even future generations may not be able to find them.

In the process of Da Suo Mau read, Shi Xueting also allocated a piece of land to Datang.

Yanmen Pass is indeed difficult to beat, but no matter how difficult it is, Shi Xueting can beat it down.

The significance of winning Yanmen Pass to the Tang Dynasty is probably second only to subduing the Northern Zhou Dynasty, but the process of subduing the Northern Zhou Dynasty was too nonsensical. From the beginning to the end, everyone was filled with a sense of at a loss as to what happened.

From the beginning to the end, it seemed that the people of the Northern Zhou Dynasty were trying to kill themselves, and God didn't help them. An earthquake killed the person who was about to ascend the throne, and then scattered the speculative ministers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

The Yanmen Pass is different. The Yanmen Pass was fought down by soldiers of the Tang Dynasty with real swords and guns. The most important thing is that in this battle, everyone found that the Khitan people seemed to have nothing to fear. When facing the firearms of the Tang Dynasty, their People and their horses can also be very frightened.

Although the Khitan army had been defeated before, what they met at that time was not the real elite of Khitan. This time Yeluxian dispatched almost all the elite troops he could to keep Yanmen Pass, but it was a pity that Yanmen Pass still fell in the end.

When the news reached Linhuang Mansion, Rao Yeluxian, who had always aimed at the refinement of the Central Plains people to make himself more civilized, couldn't help but blush and hacked the reporter to death.

"Go to someone and take back Yanmenguan for me!" Yeluxian lost control rarely.

He is also an ambitious person, and now the conflicts within the Khitan have been almost suppressed by him, and the whole Khitan has begun to change for the better. Yeluxian can't help but imagine the situation when he can rule the Central Plains in the future.

They once won the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, and now they also occupy six prefectures. Why can't he think about it?

However, Li Congjia poured cold water on him. The loss of Yanmen Pass means that it will be very difficult for Khitan to enter the Central Plains. Of course it is not impossible, but the most difficult Yanmen Pass was taken by Datang. Will the pass be difficult for the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who are now as imposing as a tiger?

If these passes, or the entire Great Wall were taken back by the Tang Dynasty, the Khitan would lose more than just a little land.

Ye Luxian was very anxious, and he began to count all the soldiers he could send out. After Wei Wang Xiao Siwen heard about it, he rushed to the palace and said, "Khan, you must not!"

Ye Luxian looked at Xiao Siwen with red eyes and asked in a deep voice, "Are you scared?"

Xiao Siwen immediately said: "Khitan Erlang will never be afraid, but if the Great Khan wants to transfer most of the soldiers, I will never agree. We have already lost the three southwestern states. If we send most of the troops to Yanmen Pass, Party Xiang can then take the opportunity to attack, and at that time, won’t we be under the enemy’s back?”

"Li Yu!" Ye Luxian gritted his teeth and read these two words. He did not forget how the military town of the three southwestern states was lost.

It has to be said that Xiao Siwen's words did stop Ye Luxian from going crazy. After all, Dangxiang is also a tribe that cannot be ignored. What's more, now that Dangxiang has surrendered to Datang and fully obeyed the orders of Datang, they can also cooperate with Tang army to attack Khitan.

Ye Luxian sat down heavily on the throne covered with tiger skin and asked, "What do you think?"

Xiao Siwen looked at Ye Luxian, and found that he had somewhat calmed down, and said with a slight sigh of relief: "In my humble opinion, it is best to negotiate a peace."

Ye Luxian frowned: "Negotiate peace?"

Xiao Siwen said, "That's right."

Ye Luxian shook his head: "The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is very ambitious, he may not let go of such a good opportunity."

Xiao Siwen said: "But no matter how much he thinks, his courtiers may not support him. Now Khitan needs to recuperate. In fact, Tang needs more than Khitan. After all, they have fought all the way from the Western Regions back to the Central Plains, and now they have just settled down. Some, they are more reluctant to start a war than we are."

Ye Luxian thought about it for a while, the current weakening of Khitan's national power is purely caused by his uncle, and the foundation is still there. If it is really going to be a fight to the death, it is not known who will die. At that time, if the Tang Dynasty continues to fight, the national power may not be sure. To be able to support it, what's more, he needs to recruit more young men to fight the war. If the people can't bear it by then, they may still rise up.

It's just that Ye Luxian couldn't bear it and negotiated a peace like this. It is possible to negotiate a peace, but it would be good to give the Sixteen States of Yanyun to Khitan.

Xiao Siwen was speechless when he heard Ye Luxian's conditions. He felt that if the emperor of Tang Dynasty saw such a request, he would definitely feel that Ye Luxian had no sincerity in negotiating peace.

Of the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, at least eight of them are in their hands now, and the peace talks are now due to the defeat of the Khitan. Why should the victorious country give up its territory to you?Brain sick?

However, Xiao Siwen decided not to continue to dissuade him. After all, he has refuted Yeluxian's refutation many times today, even if it is Da Khan's father-in-law. After much deliberation, he simply left this matter to his daughter Xiao Chuo.

Xiao Chuo is also a capable person. When Ye Luxian was in poor health, she was the one who handled government affairs, so she had more experience in dissuading Ye Luxian.

Thanks to Xiao Chuo's efforts, Ye Luxian reluctantly agreed to negotiate a peace with the current territory. As for the Xiu Kingdom, which is still splitting, the Khitan did not take them seriously from the beginning to the end, and directly classified them as their own. Within the scope, Xiuguo was ready to be taken down after a peace negotiation.

Li Congjia, who was in Chang'an, was still immersed in the excitement of winning Yanmen Pass. Just like Ye Luxian liked to imagine taking control of the Central Plains, he would also think about the situation of taking Khitan directly in the future.

Some people may think that the outside of the pass is bitterly cold and barren, and there is no need to occupy it. However... if it is really barren, how can it be possible to establish a huge Liao Kingdom?

What's more, if you can take it, take it down, there are many delicious foods in that land, just for these foods, you have to draw them into your own hands.

Just when Li Congjia was thinking about whether to write a letter to Shi Xueting, asking him to continue to rely on Yanmen Pass and fight directly to Khitan, Khitan's peace agreement came.

When Li Congjia saw the peace agreement written by the other party, he couldn't help but sneered. The Central Plains had been in chaos for a long time, which gave the Khitan an illusion. It was clearly a defeated country. What should be sent now is a letter of surrender, not this kind of peace that can only be ordered. Book!

Li Congjia threw the peace agreement book on the table and raised his chin and said: "If you don't beat them, it seems that you don't have a long memory. Let the national teacher continue to fight."

From the cabinet to the Privy Council, no one spoke. The current strength of the Tang Dynasty has gradually given them the courage of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Isn't it pleasing to the eye?Then hit!

Ye Luxian didn't get the reply he wanted, or the reply was exactly what he wanted, he didn't want to negotiate a peace at all, he wanted to fight!

So there was a disagreement, and the two sides continued to fight. Fortunately, Shi Xueting never gave up his vigilance against Khitan.

While the Khitans were continuing to compete for Yanmen Pass, Li Congjia received a very strange letter of credence—Duan Sicong, king of Dali, sent him a letter of credence to bring people to Chang'an to pay tribute.

Li Congjia was at a loss for a while. To be honest, he also had the idea of ​​Dali. After all, it was a good place. However, he could only think about it. No matter how he intervened, even if Li Congjia wanted to fight Dali, he had no suitable reason.

If you really want to win Dali, you still have to be Huairou.

It's just that there is definitely something wrong with Dali suddenly coming to pay tribute.

After reading the Guoshu, Li Congjia turned to Fan Zhi: "I remember that the Gao clan of the Xiang family is the real power in Dali now?"

Fan Zhi glanced at Li Congjia in surprise. He didn't expect him to pay attention to such a small country as Dali. Surprised, he felt that he seemed to have touched Li Congjia's idea-this guy must have bad intentions for him.

But it doesn't matter, how can an emperor without ambition be a good emperor?

Fan Zhi nodded and said, "Gao Zijun, Prime Minister of Dali, is in power now, and Duan Sicong... is just a puppet."

Li Congjia searched in his mind for a long time, but he didn't remember the name Gao Zijun. I don't know if he didn't remember it, or it wasn't recorded in history, or even... Dali Xiangguo also changed because of his butterfly?

He put this aside, flicked the letter of credence in his hand and said with a soft smile: "Unfortunately, no one wants to be a puppet, so Duan Sicong probably wants to find foreign aid."

Fan Zhi nodded, he came to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty suddenly, probably because he wanted to find a strong backer, as for whether this backer would lure wolves into the house, Duan Sicong probably had no chance to think so much.

Speaking of which, it's not that Duan Sicong has never looked for foreign aid before, but the one he was looking for was really not good-he was looking for the Southern Han Emperor Liu Wei, who was even less reliable than him, and all the power in his hands was in the In the hands of the witch, how could it be helpful to him?

So he waited for a few more years, and when Datang gradually stabilized and even dared to challenge Khitan, Duan Sicong felt that the time had come.

As for the Southern Zhou Dynasty...he didn't think about it at all. Although he couldn't fight the Gao family and won't regain his power, he could also tell that Shi Shouxin would submit to the Tang Dynasty sooner or later. He could still enjoy being the emperor in the past two years. up.

Li Congjia agreed to Duan Sicong's request, and just took the opportunity to learn more about Dali Kingdom, but to his surprise, Duan Sicong, who originally said he would come over, failed to make the trip, and finally sent his son Duan Sushun to come.

Duan Sushun has been away for more than a month, which is not too slow, and during this month, Shi Xueting has been sticking to Yanmen Pass, which made Li Congjia regret sending Shi Xueting out at the beginning. I can't come back there!

Moreover, winter was about to begin, and it was colder at Yanmen Pass. Li Congjia was very worried that he would not have enough food and clothing there.

But how is it possible?After all, Shi Xueting is the supreme commander, and the people below obey him. Of course, his life will not be difficult. The only thing that makes him feel difficult is... the war is not going smoothly. If it goes well, they should They have been able to win Shuozhou, but now they are still competing with Khitan for Yanmen Pass.

This is not to say that Shi Xueting is not good, but that Ye Luxian is actually... also a lunatic.

Although Li Congjia was worried, he still maintained his due demeanor when he met Duan Sushun, which made Duan Sushun feel that a man should be like the emperor of Tang Dynasty, and made him firmly believe that he must win Datang's support.

Duan Sushun did not come alone, he also brought a woman, who is said to be his aunt Duan Susu.

Li Congjia now has a headache when he hears the word woman, he is very worried that Duan Sushun's purpose of bringing this woman here is to aim at the emptiness of his harem.

It's not that he is narcissistic, in fact, Duan Sushun brought his little aunt here, and anyone with a discerning eye can see what the purpose is.

Now, many people saw Li Congjia's jokes. Dangxiang did this before, and then Li Congjia asked Li Hongji to marry Princess Dangxiang. Now he has no other brother who can act as a shield.

Duan Sushun did explain his purpose, and they also took great pains in choosing candidates. Duan Sicong didn't want to take advantage of Li Congjia, so he chose his younger sister.

Li Congjia was very desperate. He really wanted to know if he didn't even touch this girl if he took her in, would it be equivalent to coming out publicly?

In fact, Li Congjia has no shadows about coming out of the closet. Anyway, he is the emperor and his son, so it doesn't matter if he wants to be self-willed, but he is concerned about Shi Xueting, and he is afraid that after thousands of years, Shi Xueting will be talked about badly by later generations.

As a result, Li Congjia hadn't decided whether to come out or not, so Shi Xuehe came to him in a hurry and said, "Your Majesty, there is something wrong with that Princess Dali!"

The author has something to say: Fan Zhi: Will my emperor become a monk?What?You say he has a problem with his sexual orientation?Impossible, impossible, the appearance above the passing line around him is the national teacher, will the national teacher be a person who is inferior to others?
