Chapter 156 God
A decree often needs to be discussed by Zhongshu and the two big bosses under the door, but there must be a place for discussion. This place is in the province of Menxia, called Zhengshitang.
Or when the three senior officials want to discuss matters, most of them are held here in Menxia Province.
So the Zhengshitang gradually evolved into the core area of power.
At this moment in the political affairs hall, Jia Ping'an looked calm, while Chu Suiliang looked stern, and said lightly: "This matter is of great benefit to the people's livelihood, but you say it is of great benefit to the world. Isn't that absurd and what is it? Scary talk, this is a young man Human ability? The old man has been in the court for many years, and you have seen many young people like you. Anyone who wants to reach the sky in one step likes such big words, but today His Majesty and all the ministers are here, so what is the use of such tricks?"
Xu Jingzong was furious, grabbed the teacup and wanted to throw it away, but when Li Zhi glanced at him, he put down the teacup, stood up and said, "What do you know? Apart from good handwriting, what else do you know? Could it be... "
"Xu Qing!" Li Zhi suppressed his hands, he was worried that Xu Jingzong would say that Chu Suiliang hugged his eldest grandson Wuji's thigh in order to have a successful official career, and that would cause trouble.
Xu Jingzong said resentfully: "I'm not bragging, you and Xiao Jia will go to the local government together, within two months, it will be clear who is stronger and who is weaker, if you Chu Suiliang wins, the old man resigns and returns home, how dare you go? "
Old Xu lost his temper.
This old guy, an old official fan, actually threw out his own future as a bet.
At this moment, Changsun Wuji was moved for a moment, but he immediately gave up the idea.
Xu Jingzong is a shameless person, it is not worth betting on him.
Li Zhi gave a dry cough, and Xu Jingzong sat down with his hands folded.
Chu Suiliang sneered and said, "How can an old man bet with a young man!"
Jia Pingan picked up the few pieces of paper and said calmly: "The Tang Dynasty's army was sharp and sharp. From the beginning of the founding of the country, no matter whether it was Tuyuhun, Turks, or Tubo, they were all defeated by the great Tang army. The expansion of the army, the farther and farther the army, and the farther and farther the people... how to control it?"
The territory of the Tang Dynasty was laid the foundation after Li Zhiwu Mei, and then Li Longji attacked from all sides, and the Tang Dynasty was invincible...
"Those armies and people are far away from Chang'an, separated by thousands of miles. It takes several months, or even more than half a year, to come and go... I dare to ask Mr. Chu, if someone rebels, can Chang'an's army arrive in time? At that time... What should I do? "
"Who dares to rebel?" Chu Suiliang's first reaction was this, "The elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are in Chang'an, and Zhechong Mansions from all over the country will also send soldiers to Chang'an every year. This is a rotation. Who can rebel? "
Datang’s Shangfan system is more distinctive. In principle, the closer the Zhechong Prefecture is to Chang’an, the more people will be transferred. Every year, Zhechong Mansions from all over the country will go to Chang'an Suwei in batches, several batches a year, if there is any problem in the place, the soldiers who come to the stage will give feedback as soon as possible.
So most people looked at Jia Pingan with some inexplicable contempt.
Is this your skill?
Chu Suiliang's eyes were full of sarcasm, as if he was looking at a child with a yellow mouth, and said, "Is this the great benefit you said?"
"Of course." Jia Pingan thought of the later Datang, "The population of the Datang multiplied, and with the increasing population, Guanzhong was overwhelmed... This year, the food and grass in Chang'an are a little tight, right?"
Li Zhi nodded, pursed his lips helplessly, and said, "If this goes on like this, in a few years I will have to go to Luoyang for dinner."
As the population of Chang'an expands, the food becomes more and more insufficient, so the emperor can only take his courtiers and troops to Luoyang, which is called eating.
"What is the Fubing system based on?" Jia Pingan said with piercing eyes: "It depends on the children of Guanzhong!"
Li Ji nodded, "The children of Guanzhong are brave and good at fighting, and they are happy when they hear the battle. They are the core of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty."
Lao Li's fanfare is perfect.
Jia Pingan praised secretly, and said: "Why do the soldiers of the government rejoice when they hear about the war? One is to reward military achievements, and the other is to grant land tax exemption. Sergeants are recruited, and they practice in Zhechong Mansion on weekdays, and they come to Chang'an to guard in turn. After the battle, they come back to give rewards, and then continue to farm and practice... This is the Fubing. They have to prepare their own military supplies, knives, grain, bows and arrows, and even clothes...Each group has to pool money to prepare horses or donkeys , used to consign supplies and injuries... This is Datang Fubing."
"So what?" Chu Suiliang asked, but found that the expressions of the monarch and his ministers were a little strange.
Jia Ping'an said seriously: "Will the land in Guanzhong be enough in the future?"
Everyone was silent.
The consequence of population expansion is the shortage of land, coupled with the greed of the rich and powerful, and then the land equalization system collapsed.
"When the granted land is insufficient, where do the government soldiers come from?"
The land equalization system cannot be implemented, and the government military system is a joke.
"When the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are far away from Chang'an and the Central Plains, how do the soldiers rotate? In the end, they can only be reduced to garrison troops!"
"Targeting troops...Your Majesty, that is the beginning of recruiting troops!"
This is the evolution process of the military system of the Tang Dynasty. In the end, the military system of the government was over, and the recruitment system became popular.
"At that time, the general will lead the army to garrison one place, and the soldiers under his command will be far away from the Central Plains. How to ensure their loyalty to Datang? How to know the local situation? Merchant! Goods!"
Before An Lushan rebelled, did no one know about it?
I know, some people have warned the court, but Li Longji is soaking in the hot spring with Concubine Yang in his arms, and he is so happy that Yang Guozhong is not a prime minister at all, so he ignores these warnings, and finally bangs, it's over...
Neglected the acquisition and analysis of intelligence, which was the cause of the Anshi Rebellion. The destruction of the government military system is also the root cause of the Anlushan rebellion and the ability of the army to drive straight in.
Li Zhi deduced this process in his mind, and couldn't help but said in surprise: "The government soldiers are the key. If the government soldiers are ruined, the Tang Dynasty will also be ruined..."
This question is very sharp, but it is a long-term plan and cannot be solved at this moment.
Seeing that the emperor praised Jia Ping'an, Chu Suiliang couldn't help retorting: "The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are loyal! This is speculation!"
Eldest Sun Wuji wanted to cover his forehead.
You are sophistry!
Li Zhi looked at Chu Suiliang, clenched his right fist, and really wanted to throw something over. He wanted to endure it, but in the end he couldn't help but say, "At this time and at that time, Jia Ping'an said two things. One is that the land in Guanzhong is not enough, which will lead to the destruction of the military system of the government; the other is that the Tang army will stay away from the Central Plains in the future. Rotation is not easy, it will be reduced to garrison troops...
These two places will cause the DPRK and China to lose control over the army. At this moment, plan ahead and analyze the situation in various places from a small point, thinking that the DPRK and China are planning to consult...Is it wrong? "
The emperor usually smiled shyly, but at this moment he went off in person. His words were close to scolding, which made Chu Suiliang blushed, and stood up and said, "Your Majesty, just do these things."
Li Zhi took a deep breath, but Changsun Wuji said in a deep voice, "I'm doing it right now!"
This confidant was incoherent by Jia Pingan's words today, and his thoughts were so messed up that Changsun Wuji wanted to hit someone. If he was asked to continue, that old man Xu Jingzong would definitely jump out and say how such a person can be a prime minister.
Chu Suiliang blushed and glanced at Jia Pingan, Jia Pingan nodded slightly, "Just say what Mr. Chu has to say."
You are not class enough!
This nod angered Chu Suiliang, and he said angrily: "You are a broom, Xingke killed your parents and family, God confiscated you, His Majesty didn't suppress you, you should live according to your duty, but you are going around everywhere, making trouble everywhere, What's on your mind?"
Chu Suiliang lost his sense of proportion, which was what Jia Ping'an expected. He sighed and said with a wry smile: "Everyone says what others say... I don't even want to argue."
What do you justify?
Justify that you are not a broom star, Chu Suiliang will give an example, and then there will be a chaotic battle without a winner.
But Jia Pingan sighed, but it made people feel sad.
Xu Jingzong's eyes were red, he stared at Chu Suiliang, and suddenly jumped up and scolded: "Slave dog! You keep saying that Xiao Jia is a broom star, who did he beat after he entered Chang'an City? Tell me! I can't tell if the old man tore to pieces!" your mouth!"
oh…
Jia Pingan vaguely heard the emperor's low sigh, with an attitude of satisfaction and relief.
Old Xu stands out for Jia Ping'an, extra points.
"Old man!" Chu Suiliang got up and began to roll up his sleeves!
Xu Jingzong sneered, and by the way, tidied up his hair, making a mess of flirting.
The swords between the two were tense, Li Zhi's face was ashen, but his heart was dark.
Changsun Wuji knew what Chu Suiliang wanted to do, but this fellow was speechless by Jia Pingan's words. For the sake of face, he could only face Xu Jingzong's provocation.
"Ahem!" At the critical moment, Jia Pingan said flatly: "It's not appropriate to talk about things, Mr. Xu. We are scholars, so how can we do it when we talk about the truth? A gentleman uses his mouth, but a villain does it!"
Xu Jingzong couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, and then sat down.
Chu Suiliang stood there in a dilemma, sit down, Jia Pingan is staring at him, vowing to make him look ashamed today.
Don't sit down, is it really a game with Xu Jingzong?
He was right about that, but what that little **** Jia Pingan said just now made him unable to do anything: A gentleman uses his mouth, but a villain does it.
He is a pure gentleman, how can he lose his personality?
Li Zhi glanced at him, picked up the few pieces of paper, "Leave this to Baiqi."
Snapped!
These words were like a slap in the face, causing pain to Chu Suiliang's face who was standing there.
The emperor handed over the matter to Baiqi, first because he praised Jia Ping'an's analysis, and second because he felt relieved to leave this matter to Jia Ping'an.
"The minister will definitely live up to His Majesty's great trust!" Jia Pingan bowed his hands and accepted the order.
He glanced at Chu Suiliang, hesitated to speak, and then looked sympathetic.
Little beast!
Chu Suiliang felt extremely uncomfortable being held up at the moment.
Li Zhi got up, "So... it's getting late, I will ask you to arrange dinner for you."
"OK!"
"OK!"
The prime ministers naturally wanted to decline, but the two voices couldn't wait to agree.
One Jia Pingan, one Xu Jingzong.
Li Ji's head was full of black lines, and he really wanted to say that he didn't know that boy.
Jia Pingan said happily: "I have never eaten the imperial meal in the palace. I have been looking forward to it for a long time. It is like the dew after a long drought!"
Li Zhi nodded, and then Jia Pingan and Lao Xu waited for the imperial meal in the political affairs hall.
The prime ministers dispersed separately, leaving a huge place for the two of them to eat and drink, probably not in a good mood.
Chu Suiliang was the first to go out in a state of anxiety, which was a bit taboo.
The boss walked forward, this is absolutely unmissable.
But at this moment, Chu Suiliang's mind is full of the previous debates, he is furious, and the emperor is not around, so he can finally be unrestrained.
This kind of spirit of Ah Q made Jia Pingan also drunk.
He waved his hand, and Lao Xu shook his head, thinking that Chu Suiliang had lost his mind now, and it was not worth arguing with him.
Seeing that they were afraid to speak, and the sense of humiliation in their hearts dissipated a little, Chu Suiliang turned back and went out.
It happened that someone was carrying a pot of tea and was about to come in to serve the bosses, just bumped into it...
Boom!
The teapot flew up, the terrified look of the little official, the flying tea, Chu Suiliang's astonishment... Jia Pingan even saw a clove of garlic.
Damn it!
Who drinks tea so fresh and refined, even puts garlic.
The tea was splashed on Chu Suiliang without suspense.
It was cold, and he wore thick clothes, but his face was splashed a lot. Thinking that he has been pampered and pampered in recent years, where has he suffered such hardships, he couldn't help screaming.
This is a big teapot with a large amount of water, and a little half of the hot tea was splashed on Chu Suiliang's body. I wear a lot of clothes in winter, and after the tea is absorbed, the temperature quickly cools down, but it is still uncomfortable.
That's all, at best, go back and take care of the splashed areas on your face.
But Chu Suiliang was already annoyed in his conscience, and now that he was splashed with tea, he couldn't help being angry, and kicked him away.
The place where he was standing was wet with tea, and his lower body was already unstable. He was standing on one leg at this moment, and the other leg was exerting force to kick someone...
Without any suspense, Chu Suiliang fell headlong.
This process lasts no more than five seconds.
Everyone was dumbfounded, they didn't care about the unlucky Chu Suiliang who fell and passed out, but all looked at Jia Pingan who was also dumbfounded.
Yu Zhining murmured: "What did Mr. Chu say earlier? The old man is dizzy and can't remember."
Changsun Wuji took a deep breath, "He said... broom star, if you have the ability, you can defeat this old man."
Then…
He seeks benevolence and obtains benevolence.
Begging for hammering!
The news reached Li Zhi later, and he said in astonishment: "Why did I think of one thing... Someone said that Jia Ping'an specially beat his opponent?"
Wang Zhongliang also thought of this, "Yes!"
Chu Suiliang argued with Jia Ping'an today, and they fought each other with fierce tongues and refused to give in to each other.
Li Zhi was silent for a long time, wanting to laugh, his lips twitched a few times, feeling unkind, "Let the medical officer take a look."
Wang Zhongliang was a little worried, "Your Majesty, Jia Ping'an is in danger! Or..."
Li Zhi shook his head, with a smile in his eyes, "Since he entered Chang'an City, he has brought me good things. In addition...that Liu Jia, since he threw Jia Pingan down, has also been lucky."
As for Chu Suiliang, Li Zhi couldn't see his mood, but the immediate order made people think about it.
"Make more meals for lunch."
You are in a good mood, your appetite is good, and it smells good when you eat it...
Someone came to report later, "Your Majesty, Jia Pingan didn't say anything about eating the imperial meal, and wanted to pack it before leaving."
Li Zhi rubbed his forehead, recalled today's imperial meal, and felt that it was the same, "I remember that he only got rich, why is he so poor?"
Wang Zhongliang knew this, "Your Majesty, the Jia family rebuilt the house. They said it was excellent, and the money was like running water. Yang Deli stared at it every day, saying that he would kill anyone who dared not to do the work well."
Li Zhi was stunned, "Then Yang Deli... I have an idea. Jia Ping'an's contribution today is considered to be meritorious. I'm thinking... find something for Yang Deli to do."
"Your Majesty, Yang Deli is not qualified, right?"
Even if you are a small official in the Tang Dynasty, you have to talk about qualifications. Yang Deli was born in a farming family. How can you be a small official?
Li Zhi said lightly: "If I say it, can't I be a petty official?"
The little official is fine, but the official is worried that he will be persuaded by the censor. Wang Zhongliang bowed his head, "That's right, even if you think about it, the gentlemen can't talk."
Whoever dares to speak, Wang Zhongliang is ready to chop people with a kitchen knife.
The emperor is not even qualified to appoint a small official, what are you trying to do?
Li Zhi had a smile on his lips, no one knew what he wanted to do to Yang Deli.
Master Jia cleaned up Chu Suiliang today, and by the way Chu Suiliang fainted, how could he not like this?
When he was in a good mood, he even looked at Wang Zhongliang with red lips and white teeth.
"Go to the British public to ask if there are any vacancies for small officials recently."
Li Ji is in charge of Shangshu Province, and he has six ministries under his command, which requires a large number of officials.
Li Ji got the news and asked his subordinates without taking it seriously.
"President of the United Kingdom, the Ministry of Household Affairs just had a vacancy for a palm guard today."
Li Ji nodded, and then asked: "Which one?"
There are several departments under the Ministry of Accounting with different functions and powers.
"It's Cangbu."
Li Ji nodded, and the news was sent to the palace.
But he was a little strange, thinking that the emperor was in a daze, and he actually asked a little official about it himself.
When Li Zhi got the confirmed news, he ordered: "Go and tell Jia Ping'an."
Jia Pingan is now carrying a food box all the way home.
A Bao trots very steadily, and after getting used to it, he is no worse than riding a motorcycle.
Arriving at the rented house, Yang Deli just came back, looking disheartened. Ah Fu was lying on the side, while chickens and ducks were killing chickens.
It's nice to have a home!
"What is this?" Yang Deli was hungry when he saw the food box, so he opened it and ate it.
"It's not very delicious, but the ingredients are good." As a chef trained by Master Jia, Yang Deli somewhat dislikes imperial cuisine.
"Wuyang Man!"
Someone is calling the door outside.
"Jia Langjun, it's business."
Now Jiang Rong likes to come to Jia's house the most, every time he comes...
The door opened, and Jiang Rong inhaled slowly...continuously.
It was a small official who came, cupped his hands and said: "I just got the order, is your cousin called Yang Deli?"
"Yes!" Jia Pingan turned around and glanced at his cousin, wondering if it was the cousin who touched the woman's butt?
"The Duke of England said that the palace ordered Yang Deli to work in the warehouse department of the household department tomorrow."
Well!
Jia Ping'an felt that there might be something wrong with his ears.
"Where to?"
"The Ministry of Accounting and Warehouse Department, take the post of Zhang Gu!"
Xiao Li is crazy?
Jia Pingan was taken aback, and immediately asked, "Why did you go to the household department?"
The little official said: "There is a vacancy in the household department."
That's okay, okay...
But Jia Ping'an was very worried about his cousin's future.
"What? Go to the Ministry of Households to be an official?"
Yang Deli's eyeballs were about to pop out, and then howled: "Auntie..."
Jia Ping'an felt that if the original mother's mother had a spirit in the sky, she would definitely be harassed by her cousin and wanted to beat someone.
But what does this appointment mean?
Jia Pingan knew the reason just after thinking about it.
He gave Chu Suiliang a blow today, and the emperor was in a happy mood, so he felt that he should reward him, but it was not easy to do it too obviously, so he bestowed favor on Yang Deli.
"Auntie, I'm going to be an official."
Yang Deli was reporting work, but Jia Pingan felt his eyelids twitching wildly.
The warehouse department of the household department manages military rations and taxes, and the distribution of officials' salaries is also the work of the warehouse department.
Zhang Gu is a petty official, seemingly inconspicuous, but he is in charge of the warehouse!
Yang Deli's character goes to take charge of the warehouse...
God!
