It is difficult for men and women of wealthy families to cross

People in the capital can get new news about the progress of the war at the border every day, but the news is not first-hand, and it happens one day later than normal. A little far away, before there were no advanced communication tools such as telephones and telegraphs, such message transmission was already very fast in a day.

Wu Daicheng would read to his son about the war every day. He didn't want his son to only know how to read books. He didn't want to keep a deaf ear to what was going on outside the window. It is not for the benefit of the people, but for the disaster.When Wu Daicheng was reading the newspaper, Li Jin would also listen, and Wu Daicheng would ask Li Jin some questions in due course.Having been with her husband for a long time, Li Jin is not as shy as she was at the beginning, and now she also talks about her own thoughts.Wu Daicheng will not impose his own thoughts on the children, he doesn't think what he said must be right, just like what he said to Li Jin before, there is no absolute right or wrong in the world.

Li Jin has grown up a lot with Wu Daicheng. He feels that if he can, he no longer wants to go back to the palace. He wants to walk around and see what the people really want, and he wants to know where the sky is round. , Or the earth is round and the sky is square. If the earth is round, will the people on the other side fall down? Will the sun rise from the east for them, and will it rise from the west when they get there?Li wondered what other countries were like?What kind of life do you live?What are you talking about?Is it like them?Li Jin showed great curiosity about the outside world, and asked her husband what the outside world was like.Wu Daicheng supports Jin to go out and have a look, but he does not support Li Jin to cross the ocean to the other side of the world. The current means of transportation are very simple. It is feasible to travel by boat in the river, but it may not be safe to cross the ocean.Li Jin knew that it was unlikely that he would be able to go out, but didn't Mr. say that people should have dreams, no matter whether dreams can come true, people should have a dream to work hard for.

Wu Daicheng paid a lot of attention to the war, which caught Lin Jishan's attention, "Are you worried about the war? Don't worry, the Fourth Prince will not lose." Lin Jishan didn't think that Wu Daicheng's over-concern about the war was due to someone, he felt that Wu Daicheng's concern was more important. Most of them are worried about whether it will affect innocent people.

"I don't worry about winning or losing. I just worry about whether someone will take advantage of the chaos to make money from the war. The life of the people at the border is not easy. If the unscrupulous businessmen of the dynasty take advantage of the chaos to drive up the price at this time, their life may be difficult." It's even more difficult." After Wu Daicheng finished talking, he could only worry about it, but in actual actions, he couldn't help him with anything.Now that the border is closed to the city, even if he sends a large amount of supplies, it is estimated that they will not be able to transport them into the city.

"If you are worried about this, I think you are thinking too much. As early as the beginning of the emperor's ascension to the throne, it was clearly ordered that merchants are not allowed to raise prices during the war. If someone commits this serious crime, they will have to steal their property and distribute it to the border. I can never go back to the same place." After Lin Jishan finished speaking, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, "The border gate was not a good place before, but now it is different. If someone commits this crime, I am afraid they will not be sent to the border gate again."

"That's right. Now the border is much stronger and safer than before. I heard that people from many nearby villages want to move there, but the city is so big that the cultivated land can't be moved. If you want to accept people from outside, you have to force it." To build a house, the population will increase, and the per capita land occupation will decrease. It is estimated that the local people are unwilling to have foreigners." Wu Daicheng shook his head, no matter what the actual status of farmers in the era was, they still looked down on businessmen and felt that The merchants are inferior to them.The land is the foundation of agriculture, and farmers naturally don’t want others to divide their food. In Wu Daicheng’s view, there is no distinction between high and low, but people’s thinking cannot be changed. Even in the future, after so many years of war of resistance , not pushing a few mountains, and knocking down many classes, but what can be done, some people still have the idea of ​​superiority in their bones, and talking about everyone being equal is just a slogan.

"I don't want to, but if the higher-ups speak up, the people don't want to. The taxes at the border customs are much lower than those in other places, and the corvee is also less than other places. It's just that there are more wars. If you can beat the barbarians in one fell swoop this time It hurts, let the barbarian be honest, and the border will be stable for a few years." Lin Jishan analyzed the life of the people in the border for Wu Daicheng, "If this is the case, the border will have to develop wasteland, and the city may expand a little bit." Lin Jishan frowned slightly after finishing speaking Mei, in this case, the city wall will be rebuilt.

"The outer city can be built, so that there are two lines of defense." Wu Daicheng didn't think it was a reconstruction. The inner and outer cities can be said to be stronger. If there are large machines, he even thinks that he can get more things.

The result of the war was as everyone had guessed. The soldiers led by the Fourth Prince Cong did not put in much effort to save all the lives of the barbarians, and the outside of the city was also a mess. It would take some years to restore the original state.Naturally, the fourth prince didn't just want to beat the enemy away, he either made the barbarians completely surrender, or beat them until they were unable to fight back, and lost the will to fight again.The former, the fourth prince thinks that raising the barbarians is raising a group of white-eyed wolves, while the latter is giving them a chance to survive, and the barbarians will make a comeback, the only difference is time.The fourth prince was actually quite annoyed. Before attacking the barbarians, the fourth prince sent a letter to Wu Daicheng. He wanted to hear the opinion of the wise man.

In the capital city, the civil servants overwhelmingly dissuaded the issue of whether the barbarians should be hurt. The literati felt that since the barbarians had retreated, there was no need to chase them any more, and they also felt that every city should be punished. It has to be the same as the border gate, so there is no need to raise soldiers in the future, as long as the city wall is strong.The fourth prince didn't hear it. If he heard it, he would probably take the heads of these civil servants directly. If they don't raise soldiers, do the civil servants have miso in their minds?All maggots.

The newspapers reported on the proposals of the civil servants in the imperial court in all aspects, and the reporters also made some remarks of their own. What the reporters wrote was concerned about the country and the people. They said that if there were no soldiers in the future, if foreign enemies invaded, the generals of the country would how.The writing is a bit exaggerated, but after the people read it, there is a very good phenomenon, the people's thoughts are very unified, what kind of heart do the civil officials follow?This question is not only thought by the common people, even the emperor is also thinking about this question, do the civil officials think that they occupy a lot of positions in the court and have more right to speak, and want to suppress all the generals and not raise soldiers!Do they feel that their lives are more comfortable?

After reading the newspaper, Wu Daicheng shook his head, recalling the prosperous times of several dynasties in his previous life. Except for the Song and Qing Dynasties, which other prosperous times were not just established, with many soldiers and horses, good generals, civil and military equality in the court, or even more Emphasis on martial arts, except Song Dynasty, Yang family generals, Yue Fei, and in the Qing Dynasty, Kangxi and Qianlong did not talk about truth and falsehood. Chengdai felt that the Qing Dynasty was a mistake from the beginning, Kangxi was poor, and Yongzheng made a lot of money, but they were all defeated by Qianlong.After receiving the letter from the Fourth Prince, Wu Daicheng suddenly thought of a word...one country, two systems.Wu Daicheng immediately shared this idea with Lin Jishan, and asked the fourth prince to occupy Manzi's land, and then sent troops to garrison, and let Manzi push out the management personnel. Manzi could not have soldiers belonging to them.Wu Daicheng said it very generally, but after Lin Jishan's writing, it is a very good plan for this era.This plan cannot be transferred to the emperor through other people, so Lin Jishan sent someone to invite the third prince to show the plan to the prince when he came over for a stroll.

The third prince reiterated that after reading it once, he brought Lin Jishan into Beijing.When the Fourth Prince received the secret decree, it was already five days later, and the soldiers were all full of energy and fighting spirit, because this battle made them all feel that it was too late, and they hadn't done anything yet, and the barbarian's team was all wiped out.In addition, they were over-excited by the very easy victory, and they didn't take the barbarians seriously.After reading the secret decree, the fourth prince raised his big hand and patted his head. Then he patted the table vigorously and looked at the soldiers outside the barracks. The fourth prince was walking around in the room. The fourth prince is not at ease!But he had to admit that this was a very good strategy, so good that he felt that once it worked, he wanted to make all the neighbors around who had nothing to do to make troubles do it.

Lin Jishan came back from the capital and held Wu Daicheng's hand. When he came to Beijing this time, he felt that the emperor looked at him strangely. In addition to talking about the plan, the emperor also asked Li Jin questions. What frightened Lin Jishan the most was, The emperor actually wants to marry his son and Li Jin, the age gap between the two is too big.It was difficult for Lin Jishan to tell Wu Daicheng about this matter, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Li Jin became very complicated. Lin Jishan was wondering if it was the emperor's decision, or Li Jin's request?Fortunately, the third prince interrupted, saying that Li Jin was too big, and he had to be younger than Qingfeng to marry him.Seeing the emperor's serious consideration, Lin Jishan was worried about how much the emperor wanted to tie them with the royal family.

Lin Jishan was still too immature and didn't understand the psychology of the superiors. At that time, Wu Daicheng didn't show anything, which made the emperor agree with the third prince's statement. Now he feels more and more that his decision was a mistake. If he doesn't find an opportunity to make up for the mistake, the emperor I have no idea.In the eyes of the emperor, even if the status of the Lin family is not high enough now, after a few years, Lin Jishan's son will definitely be worthy of his family's daughter.
