Fu Tang

There was also a reason for the governor of Dengzhou and the governor of Dengzhou to cry. It was not that they were reluctant to part with Li Congjia. On the contrary, if something had not happened, they hoped that Li Congjia would leave sooner.

In fact, whether this matter is big or small, there is another problem in Fusang Island.

When they said something went wrong on Fusang Island, Li Congjia tensed up instantly: "What's going on?"

His supervision over that piece of land is the strictest, how can something happen like this?

Seeing that Li Congjia's expression became extremely serious, the governor of Dengzhou immediately said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that those who stayed in Fusang often smuggled in for the purpose of registering in the Tang Dynasty. The coastline is so long...we really can't see it. "

The governor of Dengzhou was very wronged, because of the issue of smuggling, he had failed the assessment for two consecutive years, and in another year, he was afraid that he would go home and eat himself.

I think when he was first appointed, the governor of Dengzhou and his family were very happy. They felt that the imperial court valued him. The geographical location of Dengzhou is also very good. After all, there is a port, and the Yuanxi fleet is still here. Basically, they want power. The right to money has money.

As a result, after arriving here, he found that economic development and political ambitions did not exist anymore, and he racked his brains to fight wits and courage with these smuggled Fusang people!

Of course, he became ruthless for a while later, catching one and killing the other, so it can always be restrained, right?It turns out that these Japanese people are not afraid of death at all, and they came here one after another. Later, the governor of Dengzhou also figured it out. These people probably think that they will die sooner or later in Fusang. If they are not caught, they will escape. sky.

The governor of Dengzhou had protested with the governor of Fusang, but the governor of Fusang ignored the matter at all. This time he came to complain to Li Congjia because he was really desperate.

As for the governor of Dengzhou, he is not really here to join in the fun. After all, he also bears the responsibility of coastal defense. Fusang is a relatively special place. He often runs from Fusang to this place, but he still can't catch him. It's embarrassing.

After hearing this, Li Congjia immediately understood that Fusang's policy towards the aborigines was indeed not very good, and it was not surprising that they were oppressed to the point of fleeing. Moreover, no matter how perfect the household registration of Datang is now, it is not as good as that of later generations. There are all kinds of opportunistic methods. If you really can't go to the mountains and forests, you will still have a household registration when you come out when Da Suo looks good.

After all, judging from the appearance, it is not so difficult for the Japanese to pretend to be from the Tang Dynasty.

Li Congjia looked at the two of them very pitifully and couldn't help but said: "I know this matter well, you don't have to think so much."

The governor of Dengzhou and the governor of Dengzhou breathed a sigh of relief. Li Congjia's reputation has always been good. He said that he would consider this matter and at least give a solution. Even if he didn't give a solution, at least he knew about it. Things, waiting until the next evaluation should not make the two of them too ugly.

That night, Li Congjia and Shi Xueting talked about it as a joke, and Shi Xueting pondered for a while and said, "What do you think?"

Li Congjia leaned lazily on him and asked, "What do you think?"

Shi Xueting smiled and said: "Obviously I asked you first, why did you ask me again?"

Li Congjia chuckled and said, "Since you say that, you must have something in mind. Tell me first."

Shi Xueting hummed and said: "I think it's about the same. After all, Fusang Island is now the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and the people on it are also the people of the Tang Dynasty. In the past, when we occupied a place, the treatment of the people there was similar to that of the Tang Dynasty. The common people are treated the same, and they are even appeased. When it comes to Fusang, it becomes different. This is prone to problems. Of course, it can be said that it is because the pirates killed the people of Datang. Are there still few people in Tang Dynasty?"

In fact, many people don’t know why Li Congjia specifically targeted the Japanese. If it was when Li Congjia first started his career, he would definitely be questioned if he did so, but later on, everyone found out that they didn’t understand what Li Congjia did. , After a while, facts will prove that what he did was right.

No one could explain why. In the end, everyone could only think that this was probably the destiny. This is why Li Congjia was so harsh on the Japanese and no one objected.

After hearing this, Li Congjia pondered for a while, thinking about it, he seemed to mean the same thing. He was indeed very wary of the Japanese before, but after so long, the other party did not turn around, and he also felt that he was a little too aggressive.

It may be because of the hatred that was rooted in his body when he was studying modern history, but now this hatred has almost disappeared, and the next thing he has to do is to assimilate these people into Datang people.

If you want to deal with a nation, what is more useful than letting it merge with other nations and gradually disappear from the world?

In the case that the genocide cannot be exterminated, they can only choose such a roundabout route.

The next day Li Congjia told the governor of Dengzhou, "Let the governor of Fusang come here, I want to see him."

Originally, Li Congjia wanted to go to Fusang Island in person, but no one knew what was going on there, and there had been assassinations before, so Shi Xueting refused to agree to him going to Fusang Island. Xia had no choice but to compromise and let the governor of Fusang come to see him.

The governor of Fusang came very quickly, and the emperor dared not come too late when he summoned anyone.

After he arrived, Li Congjia asked about the situation of Fusang Island in detail. The governor of Fusang Island was a little surprised, but he was a talent. Even if he was not sure about Li Congjia's intentions, he still brought the summary documents of Fusang Island in recent months.

After Li Congjia looked at it, he found that the dangers he expected on Fusang Island did not exist at all. Those people seemed to have resigned to their fate, and almost no one resisted.

Li Congjia was a little puzzled: "Are they really honest?"

Fusang Inspector nodded, seeing that Li Congjia still had some doubts, he couldn't help laughing: "Your Majesty, I used to think it was a bit strange, but after I learned about Fusang's life, I felt that this situation is nothing."

Li Congjia was quite interested: "Oh? Tell me."

Fusang Inspector cheered up a bit. It was an honor for the courtiers to be able to sing the duel alone in front of the emperor. It would be nice for these governors to see the emperor all year round. Now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. .

So after sorting out his language, he said: "I only learned about it after I arrived in Fusang. Many people on this island depend on going out to sea to fish for a living. There is too little land suitable for planting on the island, so they originally had A lot of people just can't get enough to eat."

Hearing this, Li Congjia nodded. The situation of Fusang Island is not a secret. It is not bad for an island to have rich mineral resources, and the presence of mineral resources means that the land quality is not good, which means that the planting industry cannot develop.

Governor Fusang continued: "In the past, they lived by importing food from other places. However, no matter whether they imported food from Khitan or Datang, they had to pay high tariffs. This caused many people in Japan to not be able to eat good food at all. It is not bad for ordinary civilians to even have food to eat. On the contrary, after becoming slaves of Datang, Datang has no shortage of food, nor does it lack food for them. A lot of food was transported from Dengzhou, but one by one They can eat enough, and their standard of living has improved compared to before. Under such circumstances, they will not want to rebel."

Li Congjia nodded. Throughout the ages, no matter what country the common people actually wanted were enough food and clothing. As long as they had this as a foundation, no one would want to take risks and rebel.

The governor of Fusang was thinking about whether he had said something wrong just now, but he heard Li Congjia ask again: "In this case, why do some people persist in smuggling? Even in the face of death threats, they refuse to retreat?"

This situation conflicts with what Fusang Governor said, so there must be something wrong. Of course, Li Congjia did not show any doubts about Fusang Governor, lying in front of him... Li Congjia thinks Fusang Governor's IQ should be It's not that low, and I can't do it. What's more, if you are in Chang'an, you can tell a lie. Now Li Congjia is in Dengzhou, and wanting to go to Fusang Island is just a matter of one sentence. It is really meaningless to tell such a lie.

The governor of Fusang was not nervous, and explained in detail: "These smugglers used to have good family conditions, and the current life is still worse than theirs before, so they will naturally take risks."

Li Congjia nodded. It was possible. Of course, he knew that the governor of Fusang probably still had something to say. Maybe these people were bullied miserably on Fusang Island.

After all, their living conditions were envied by ordinary people in the past. Maybe there are some squires in the fish and meat village. .

Li Congjia understood the situation once more, and he didn't tell the governor of Dengzhou, so he just sent him back, but the governor of Dengzhou didn't feel any dissatisfaction, anyway, he wanted to come here anyway. Express yourself, and now the task is basically completed successfully, that's enough.

Li Congjia began to think about this issue on the way back. His idea was that it would be no problem for these Fusang people to have the same treatment as the people of Tang Dynasty, but it should not be too sudden. would appreciate it.

So his idea is to come a little bit, set some rewards, rewards step by step, and the final reward is the Datang civilian household registration. Presumably, for this household registration, those Fusang people will work hard.

As for how to set it up, Li Congjia decided to leave it to the people below. He only needs to put forward an idea, and he thinks that there should be no objection to this matter.

It took Li Congjia more than half a month to get there by train from Dengzhou to Chang'an, which is more than 1000 kilometers and 2000 miles away. Although the speed of the train has increased now, the emperor's train is trying to be stable and avoid overturning. On the contrary, the speed was not so fast, and Li Congjia often stopped to conduct private visits on Weibo, so the speed was even slower.

Speaking of it, private visits on microservices are actually not that scary. The law and order in the Tang Dynasty is still good. Although Li Congjia is the emperor, but in this era, there is no Internet and no cameras. I couldn't recognize him either. He was just a commoner when he didn't reveal his identity, but he was very safe.

Half a month later, Li Congjia returned to Chang'an, and Li Zhongyu led all civil and military officials out to welcome Baili.

After nearly half a year, when I saw Li Zhongyu again, Li Congjia felt that this child seemed to have changed a little, became more stable, and the whole person began to transform into a mature man. Of course it was just the beginning, but combined with his age, I have to say that this child Too precocious.

Because it was outside, Li Congjia just expressed condolences to everyone for their hard work, said some things on the scene, and then got into the car and returned to the palace.

After going out for so long, it was not obvious when he was outside. When he came back and saw the majestic gates of Chang'an and the vermilion walls of the imperial palace, Li Congjia found that he was still homesick, even though he felt that he had been confined in the palace all the time. I was so suffocated that I wanted to go out for a walk.

But after going out for so long this time, he really feels very tired when he comes back now.

Back in the palace, Li Congjia didn't exchange greetings with the ministers, but just encouraged Li Zhongyu, and then he was ready to take a good rest.

No matter how good the conditions are along the way, it is not as good as the palace.

The only advantage is probably that they had a slightly longer honeymoon with Shi Xueting indirectly. Even if the two of them were clingy when they were in Chang'an, they would spend most of the day apart. After all, both of them had things to deal with. Sitting together is also doing their own things. Reluctantly speaking, only after You o'clock in the afternoon is the time for the two of them.

If there is any emergency, the time has to be compressed, and when they are outside, the two of them can be said to be tired of being together every day. The only inconvenience is that there are too many light bulbs next to them, so we still have to restrain ourselves.

Li Congjia came back to the palace alone. On the way, Shi Xueting said to him: "I've been away for so long, there must be some things that need to be resolved in the ministry, I'll go and see first, if there are no major problems , I'll go to you tonight, if I haven't come after Xushi, don't wait for me, go to bed first."

Look, there are a lot of things to do when we return to Chang'an, Li Congjia agreed with some displeasure: "Well, don't be too busy."

Although Shi Xueting said he would come, according to Li Congjia, there should be a lot of things waiting for him to decide in the intelligence department, especially the situation on the Tubo side. After all, in the past six months, those Tubo tribes have started to clean up. It seems that all suspicious elements in the foreign population will be eliminated, and the activities of Datang's intelligence personnel there are almost suspended.

Recently, it is said that it is getting better, and there must be a lot of news.

After Li Congjia returned to the palace to freshen up, he found that it was still early, and now he couldn't sleep, so he simply called Li Zhongyu over to ask about the situation in the past six months, and by the way, evaluate how far the prince has grown.

Li Zhongyu was ready to be summoned by his father, and he came over soon, and took a bunch of booklets. After reading it, Li Congjia smiled and said: "I brought you here to talk between father and son, you are good. Bring these things, all right, let’s put them there first, come and talk to us.”

Li Zhongyu smiled shyly, and then told Li Congjia about the situation in the past six months in detail.

In fact, there is not much to say, they are all trivial things, all in all, Datang is going well this year, and nothing major happened.

It's just that the more trivial things are, the more they can reflect a person's character. Li Congjia listened carefully, and felt that it was not bad at Li Zhongyu's age to achieve this level, and couldn't help feeling: "It's not bad, but still needs to work hard." , grow up quickly."

Li Zhongyu breathed a sigh of relief immediately. He was not uneasy when Li Congjia came back. He was very worried that the father and son would become separated after half a year.

When the prince deals with courtiers, as long as he is not mentally retarded, he will usually get praise from some ministers and some loyal courtiers.

It’s just that this behavior now seems to be poaching his father’s corner. If Li Congjia is unhappy, I’m afraid he will feel very uncomfortable in the future. Worry.

Li Congjia found that Li Zhongyu was no different from the nervousness at the beginning to the end, and he was relieved. Li Zhongyu was worried that there would be a estrangement between father and son, and Li Congjia did not want this to happen. He needed to give Li Zhongyu a signal. Anyway, with Li Zhongyu's ability However, even if he wanted to dig a corner to reach the level of forcing the palace, it would take more than ten or twenty years, unless Li Congjia died in the process and lost all his prestige.

However, this is certainly not going to happen.

After Li Zhongyu became calm, he couldn't help but said: "Father is too harsh on me, even Mr. Fan thinks I'm doing well, but dad hates me for growing up slowly."

Li Congjia smiled and said, "It's different. You are about to get married. After you get married, you will be an adult. You will have more important responsibilities in the future. How can you not grow up soon?"

Li Zhongyu is full of confidence about this: "My son will definitely work hard!"

Li Congjia replied, "Okay, you've been tired all day, go and rest."

After he finished speaking, he started to chase people away. Li Zhongyu got up and prepared to leave, but he hesitated for a while and asked: "Father, do you want to see Uncle Ba Wang later?"

Li Congjia was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Balang? What happened to him?"

He went through it in his mind, but he didn't hear Shi Xueting say what Li Congyi did.

Li Zhongyu said in a low voice: "Uncle Ba Wang has been a little uneasy recently because of the rebellion. I tried to persuade him several times, but it didn't seem to work. I'm afraid it's only Dad who can do it."

Li Congjia immediately realized that those rebels had wanted to elect Li Congyi as emperor before.

But Li Congjia took this matter as a joke at the time, so he didn't take it to heart at all, but unexpectedly, Li Congyi took it to heart, and became more cautious.

Li Congjia shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay, I'll see him tomorrow. Well, tomorrow... maybe I don't have time, so I'll see you sometime later."

It is indeed crucial to appease Li Congyi. After all, he is his younger brother, and he is related by blood. If this younger brother gets angry, he can cause him some troubles. It's just that he has just returned, and there are too many things to do, so he can only do it a little bit.

Li Zhongyu didn't say anything more, and that's all he could do. If Li Congyi can't feel at ease, then...no one can do anything.

Li Congjia almost kept spinning for several days, and when he finally took a break, he found that he had complained about Shi Xueting being too busy, but Shi Xueting was busy in one day, but he was busy for many days and ignored Shi Xue court.

Li Congjia lay on the small couch and hugged Shi Xueting and said vaguely: "Really, obviously important papers were given to me immediately, and I approved them all. Why are there so many papers when I come back? Are they lazy? "

Shi Xueting comforted Li Congjia, who had lost any strength, with a hoarse and sexy voice: "These things are probably not too urgent, so I prioritized them."

Li Congjia endured it for a while but still couldn't hold it back. He bit Shi Xueting's collarbone and grinded his teeth gently, but he didn't delay his speech: "Da Lang has made great progress, but it is still a little far from my request. I wonder if it is me." The requirements are too high, from your point of view, the current Dalang is the same as me... Oh, when you met me, I was slightly older than Dalang, but not much older, let's compare it casually."

Shi Xueting was a little unbearably stimulated by him, held him up and said: "This question... I'm not very good at answering, I don't know what your request is, but if you compare... I think Da Lang It's still a little worse than you."

When Li Congjia was 19 years old, he had already gone to the enemy's territory to fight with people with a thunder box, and even subdued a cottage. Although it seems that there is no comparison, what Li Zhongyu does now is the foundation laid by Li Congjia. At the beginning, Li Congjia had no one who could lay the foundation for him.

Li Congjia was a little unbearable by the sudden entry, but because both of them had vented, the rhythm became a little slow this time, at least Li Congjia still had time to talk.

"Balang is too thoughtful."

Shi Xueting moved his mouth slowly and said: "You can't blame him, no matter who is named and supported by the rebels, they will be afraid."

Li Congjia endured and endured, and finally couldn't help it: "Are you trying to grind people to death?"

Shi Xueting chuckled: "It's really hard to serve. I thought it was too fast just now, but now I feel slow."

Li Congjia almost kicked him off: "I'm sorry for you!"

However, it was unsuccessful in the end, and before he raised his strength, Shi Xueting brought him into a fiery wave.

When Li Congjia woke up the next morning, he planned to summon Li Congyi directly, but was interrupted by Yang Xin. The boy came over and said, "Your Majesty, the Sanfo Qi people said they would send back the fugitives from our country, but they have conditions." .”
