Chapter 1042 This emotion is called happiness
"It's still like this in the palace!"
Jia Ping'an is a little tired.
Shao Peng smiled.
"Old Shao."
Taking advantage of the opportunity of the waiter in front of him walking fast, Jia Pingan slowed down and asked in a low voice: "Tell me, what do you mean, sister?"
Shao Peng sneered, "You don't know what you are doing? You are so bold that your mission has turned into extermination..."
…
"A mission has turned into an extermination!"
The emperor's voice was stern, "The foreign domain is terrified!"
Isn't it just the surprise of the Allies? Scared! Jia Ping raised his head, "It's better to scare them than to make them feel that Tang is weak. I think this is a good thing."
have a look!
See what your brother has become? !
Li Zhi looked at the queen subconsciously.
Empress Wu said with a cold face, "Have you learned to talk back?"
Jia Ping'an bowed his head. But he really thinks it's a good thing.
Now that you have become the overlord, you should put aside those thoughts that peace is the most important thing. Peace has never been the most important thing in this world. It is poison!
The emperor sneered, "Before you arrived in Chang'an, people from more than a dozen tribes rushed here. They said they were willing to donate their population to the grassland, just for their lives."
Good thing!
Jia Pingan endured very hard.
The emperor finally waved his hand, "Speak!"
Jia Pingan first took a look at Sister A and smiled feignedly.
"Your Majesty, without Tang's protection, Xiren and Khitan would have been dispersed and annexed by the Turks long ago. But what did Tang's kindness get in return? What he got in return was contempt and ambition."
This is not a lie, as evidenced by countless blood and tears in the annals of history.
"To deal with this kind of alien race, I think it's better to use kindness and power together, and you have to be careful..."
Li Zhi said lightly: "So you made a proposal with me before you set off. After that, those foreign races will be scattered and scattered to various places in the south, and then the people from the Tang Dynasty will be moved to their places. It will be a hundred years of meritorious service..."
"yes."
Jia Ping'an said: "There is nothing to be afraid of, but Khitan should not be underestimated. They are only temporarily sheltered under the wings of Datang..."
"There are too many tribes taking shelter under the wings of the Tang Dynasty. Could it be that they all go to the south?"
Wu Mei frowned, "There are many miasmas in the south, and many places are not suitable for people to live in. It is not bad if ten people enter and can live two or three people. Those tribes..."
Jia Ping'an looked calm.
Li Zhi said slowly: "This move can develop the south, and cut down hidden dangers by the way, killing two birds with one stone... Well done!"
…
"Mr. Jia has entered the city!"
Jiang Rong excitedly sent the news to Jia's family.
"Where's Aye?"
Go around the first response.
The boss, Jia Yu, looked at his two younger brothers with a stern face, "Hurry up and change your clothes."
The second child, Jia Hong, was chubby, and said with a smile, "Brother, who is Aye?"
Jia Yu said with a straight face, "Aye is Aye!"
The youngest, Jia Dong, also had a straight face, as if his eyes were on his forehead.
Wei Wushuang and Su Ho happily changed into their costumes, ready to welcome the headed family back home.
"It's Triumph!"
Du He was frothing in the front yard, "Xi Ren's 30,000 army was defeated by Lang Jun's 1,000 men, and then Lang Jun led these 1,000 men to defeat Khitan's 40,000 army and captured Abu Gu alive. , isn’t this a triumph, what is it?”
Wang Bo was muttering.
"Sir, this is a mission! But why does it feel like a conquest?"
Di Renjie said indifferently: "Remove the seem."
"咱咕咱!"
Ah Fu rushed out suddenly, and Du He shouted with a straight face: "Everyone stand up."
The servants stood up neatly to welcome the Patriarch back.
Jia Yu came out.
Behind him are three younger siblings.
Jia Pingan couldn't help feeling guilty when he saw Ah Fu, and said while rubbing: "I will find you a female bear later, at least I will let you have a queen."
"Meet Ayer!"
Jia Yu appeared with his younger siblings.
Jia Pingan walked over, "Have you ever been filial to your mother at home?"
Jia Yu said: "Don't dare or forget."
Jia Pingan asked again, "Have you ever put your heart into your studies?"
Jia Yu said, "Be careful."
Jia Ping'an nodded in satisfaction.
Jia Yu said: "My lord travels hard."
It is a solemn sense of ritual to call father an adult after a long absence.
Jia Pingan nodded, "It's not hard work."
The welcome ceremony is over, and the two little ones are obviously still thinking about who Aye is, and Doudou has already greeted him happily.
"Aye, they said you won't be back for a long time. Did you bring me a present?"
"I have brought it."
Don't blame the child for not knowing how to be considerate of you. In the eyes of the child, the father is so tall and strong that he will never fall down.
So until they are fully grown up, they will never have to worry about this high wall called father falling down.
After entering, Du He led the servants to salute.
Followed by Di Renjie and Wang Bo.
"Chang'an is okay, let's talk about it later."
Di Renjie was considerate of his reunion with his wife and children after a long absence, and because there were no major issues that needed to be resolved urgently, so he suppressed the news for the time being.
Entering the backyard, two ladies greeted each other.
Take a bath and change clothes, and then the family eats.
A little strangeness disappeared after one night.
The two children also 'betrayed' before the gift.
"That's nice, Aye!"
Jia Hong, who got a bunch of spike bracelets, was full of praise.
Jia Dong’s is a pair of beautiful antlers.
"It is said that it can be used as medicine!"
Jia Dong quietly went to get a small knife, and poked and poked on the edge of the antler...the palm of his hand was blistered, but still no powder came out.
Last night was too busy, so during breakfast, Wei Wushuang talked about the situation by the way.
"The tea and wine business is getting better and better."
"A rising tide raises all boats. Now that there are more and more rich people, and the money bags of the common people are gradually getting richer, they naturally dare to spend money."
Jia Pingan glared at Su Ho who was about to steal his daughter's stewed meat, "How is the farm?"
"Both Zhuangzi are good."
The Jia family does not expect the farm to make money, but to raise a group of farmers. Every year, the family can't finish the food produced by the two villages, and the surplus is donated to the nursing home.
DouDou suddenly said: "Aye, Er Niangzi said you are a hero!"
"Second Lady?"
Jia Ping'an obviously forgot about this person.
Doudou said, "It's Wang Qiang."
"Oh! Thank you for the compliment."
Jia Pingan naturally wouldn't take a girl's compliment to heart.
"Auntie!"
Doudou suddenly exploded.
Jia Pingan knew that Su Ho was committing crimes without looking.
"Look how much you eat..."
"Aniang, you are the one who said that I need to eat more meat."
"But you can't eat too much."
Jia Pingan went out with a smile.
Yunzhang was waiting outside, and said in a low voice, "Before today, the house was much quieter."
He came back, and Suho also started bouncing again, and began to grab food with his daughter...
I am the head of the family.
is also their backbone!
Jia Pingan and Jia Yu went out together.
"The school has passed a lot of imperial examinations this year, and the brothers all said that they will return to mathematics in ten years, and see if Confucianism can still cover the sky with one hand."
“Don’t think about the death of Confucianism.”
"Why?"
"Because it is dangerous to have no opponent."
"Then... what should we do then?"
"It will be fine when Xinxue develops and grows. At that time, there will be many disciplines within Xinxue, and Xinxue is for use. When this concept is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it will be a good opportunity for Xinxue and politics to be put aside. Learning is learning. Don't associate it with politics."
Confucianism can be called the unity of politics and science, but the ending is tragic.
Jia Pingan arrived at the Ministry of War.
"Meet the Duke."
Smiling all the way to the duty room, two servants came.
Wang Xuan cupped his hands, "I heard that the Duke of the State sent an envoy to destroy two great powers, and the entire military department is overjoyed!"
Wu Kui cupped his hands, "I have seen the Duke."
Wang Xuan said with a smile: "Duke sees that the Qing has calmed down a bit. I think this journey has been hard."
"No hard work!"
Jia Ping'an said indifferently: "Is there any major event in the Ministry of War these days?"
Wang Xuan narrowed his eyes, and Wu Kui said: "At the end of last year, there was an old soldier's family begging outside the imperial city, saying that the old soldier was weak... I wanted to sue the old man in advance, but the old man supported it, but Wang Shilang objected, and the old man moved without restraint. Hand, I'm sorry Wang Shilang."
The retirement age for soldiers of the Tang Dynasty is sixty.
Wang Xuan is still gentle and elegant, "Wu Shilang is not vulgar when he is rough."
—You rough embryo!
Jia Ping'an is not interested in the way the aristocratic family scolds people without swearing.
Those scholars in later generations racked their brains to think of various speech techniques, which can not only ridicule people, but also make people angry and have nowhere to vent.
This is sour Confucianism!
"Who's winning?"
Wang Xuan was taken aback.
Wu Kui talked about that, of course he won.
Wu Kui smiled and said, "The old man won."
Wang Xuan's city government couldn't stand such a deliberate humiliation. He thought Jia Pingan's problem was to humiliate himself.
"Yes!" Jia Pingan took a sip of tea, "Whether the reason is right or wrong, winning is the skill."
Wang Xuan couldn't help accepting the gentleness, "Duke, this is the Ministry of War..."
—We are not in the army, and the officials are not so rough!
Jia Pingan really doesn't like to beep with people who like to talk in circles. He also knew a few people like this in his previous life, and he had to talk about things around the corner. If you want him to make a statement, he will say in a twisted manner, what is that sentence called...
The person who says no thinks you are saying yes.
It's good to have a look at the words.
Society is not complicated, what is complicated is people.
Who is going around with you when it's okay?
Jia Pingan didn't want to beep with him, "Bing!"
Wu Kui's eyes became more colorful.
After Wang Xuan left later, he said the reason.
"Wang Shilang looked down on those old soldiers quite a bit. In the words... the Duke didn't see it, what kind of gentleness and elegance, it turned into meanness at that time, and the subordinate officials were furious. In the end, they couldn't help arguing. , full of old punches."
Each played fifty big boards, but Wu Kui was still dealt with.
Wu Kui laughed and said, "Wang Xuan didn't stab it."
Jia Pingan squinted, "Interesting."
It is right not to poke it out.
He ordered: "Let the people below think about this matter, let them investigate, and then report."
As a superior, he must learn to order people to do things. But what you want to say about the happiness of the superior, Jia Pingan didn't feel it.
I have to go to Gao Yang today.
"It's not bad to go out every two years!"
These are his sincere words.
I'm almost thirty years old, and getting along with my woman day and night is a bit tiresome.
At this time, when you go out for a year or so and come back, the passion between husband and wife can be rekindled.
Both men and women are creatures who love the new and hate the old!
hehe!
Jia Ping'an smiled happily!
…
Fan Ying came back from outside the city.
The accompanying Baiqi said: "Old Fan, your deceitful appearance the day before yesterday seemed real, even I almost believed it."
Fan Ying stroked her beard, and said in a fairy-like way: "That's Taoism!"
Baiqi smiled, "Maybe you can teach me one or two?"
this…
Fan Ying sighed: "The law is not taught lightly!"
"What do you want?"
Fan Ying was silent.
"Money?" Baiqi asked.
Fan Ying finally spoke up, "It's out of the question to talk about money, but..."
Baiqi touched a string of copper coins and came out.
"We have to enshrine Taoist priests too, otherwise how can there be Taoism if we are not pious?" Fan Ying looked upright, "The more pious the worship, the more effective the Taoism will be."
Baiqi thought for a while, "I'll give some more later, remember to use it as an offering to Dao Zun!"
"Easy to say!"
Fan Ying took the copper coins, "Go back and drink!"
"Master!"
There is someone waiting in front of you, Fan Ying saw...
"Tsing Yi!"
Baiqi just wanted to take a look, but Fan Ying blocked his sight, "Well, you go back first, just say... the old man has something to do, go back later."
Baiqi nodded, and then saw Fan Ying dismount and go over.
"When did you come back Tsing Yi?"
"Yesterday."
"Did Jia Ping'an ever bully you along the way?"
"Master, what are you thinking!"
Wei Qingyi's ears turned red, "It's nothing."
The old father breathed a sigh of relief, "Is this trip going well?"
"smoothly."
"The old man is asking for nothing." Fan Ying laughed at herself: "Do you know Jia Ping'an's reputation today?"
Wei Qingyi shook his head.
Fan Ying said: "All the foreigners in Chang'an have said it. From then on, wherever Jia Ping'an goes on an envoy, he has to be trembling. If he hears the news of Jia Ping'an's envoy, he will run away..."
A passer-by was not happy when he heard this, "This is called Zhao Guogong's envoy - extermination of the clan!"
There are allegories for this.
Fan Ying murmured, "You didn't join the battle, did you?"
Wei Qingyi shook his head, "Just killed a few."
Fan Ying: "..."
Wei Qingyi said: "By the way, Master, it's not good for you to call him Jia Ping'an?"
Fan Ying pouted her neck and said: "What's wrong? He always comes to look for you, and this time he took you on an envoy. The old man always feels that the door is not secure, and he is afraid that it will fall down. Tsing Yi, you have to hold on .”
…
"Hold on!"
"I can't stand it anymore!"
After some tumbling, Gao Yang gasped.
Jia Ping'an thinks that too many women are not a good thing... After too many men are like machines, comforting women back and forth.
"I'm just a little bit of that..."
"Do not talk."
Fast once doesn’t mean fast forever!
Master Jia was a little resentful.
Later he talked to his son in a dignified manner.
"Mr. said that the essay must be done, and the poems and prose must also be learned."
"The rich and the idle should learn these things."
Jia Ping'an was hinting at this, and Gao Yang next to him froze for a moment.
Li Shuo obviously understood.
"yes."
Jia Pingan said softly: "You have to know that the more capable you are, the more you want to break free from the shackles, but everyone has shackles. As my child, you still have to inherit your mother's property. There are also countless wealthy people in the city..."
He waited for a while, and after Li Shuo finished digesting the words, he continued: "After learning poetry, prose, and essays, it is used to cultivate sentiment, and new learning is also to be learned..."
Li Shuo was puzzled, "Aye, didn't you say that I shouldn't learn my skills?"
"How could I let my son be wronged?" Jia Ping'an said with a smile, "I don't mean ability, but I mean being an official!"
Li Shuo understood, "Aye, being an official is also a skill?"
"certainly!"
Jia Pingan said: "If a person wants to live freely, he must first learn to be a man; and being an official is more difficult than being a man."
Li Shuo said sharply: "Aye, do you mean that being an official has many things to worry about?"
"Yes." Jia Pingan said: "What is being an official? It is to do one's own job well among a group of colleagues with different ideas, so as to satisfy the superior."
"It's hard."
Li Shuo frowned like an adult.
"You are too sensitive." Jia Pingan said seriously: "Sensitive people will suffer if they enter the officialdom. You will speculate on many people, which will make you gloomy. I would rather you be a rich and idle person all your life than let Go roll in that mud pit!"
He said lightly: "Did you think that being a father made you compromise?"
Li Shuo's eyes were full of admiration.
Jia Pingan said softly: "My son, as long as he is willing, I will push away the biggest obstacle for him."
He looked at Li Shuo.
Li Shuo nodded.
Gao Yang felt that he couldn't get in a word.
But there is an emotion that keeps popping up in his chest.
Can't stop it!
This emotion is called happiness.
…
"Your Highness, it's time to study."
It is not a good experience to have someone's thoughts in the early morning.
"Where's uncle?"
Zeng Xianglin said: "Mr. Zhao was busy in the Ministry of War after he entered the palace that day."
"That's it!"
The prince looked a little sleepy.
When he arrived at the empress's place, the emperor asked, "Why are you listless?"
Prince said: "Uncle didn't come."
Li Zhi smiled and said: "He just came back, and there are a lot of things in the military department waiting for him to deal with. He has been diligent these few days, and he only went out for half a day."
In that half day, Jia Pingan went to Gao Yang.
Wu Mei smiled and said, "Goro, let's go out for a walk too."
Li Zhi nodded, "I wanted to take you to the Wannian Palace this year, but I'd better take another look after thinking about it."
Wu Mei said: "The flood in the Wannian Palace back then, I still have lingering fears in retrospect. The water is so soft that you can't fight it, but the world can't fight it."
The prince turned around, and there was joy in his eyes.
When he appeared in the imperial city, all the officials on the road stopped and saluted.
"This is trouble!"
Li Hong doesn't like to be complicated.
After entering the Ministry of War, Menzi wanted to report.
"No need."
Li Hong thought it was boring to work hard.
All the way to Shang Shu's office.
"...What is supposed? These days, living to the age of 40 is considered longevity, but the government soldiers need to be 60 to be discharged. What does this mean? They all mean to die in the army!"
Li Hong frowned, "Who?"
Menzi said: "Wu Shilang."
Li Hong squinted his eyes and recalled Wu Kui's information.
"Warriors are different from ordinary people. Look at Duke Xing, he can still kill enemies today... This is a veteran in his seventies!"
This voice sounds very calm.
Menzi whispered, "This is Wang Shilang."
The prince glanced at the door.
Smart!
Zeng Xianglin nodded with a smile.
The subordinate is struggling, how will the uncle deal with it?
Li Hong was very curious.
Jia Ping'an's voice came out slowly.
"The soldiers of the government do farming exercises at home. From time to time, they gather people to practice in Zhechong Mansion, and they take turns to go to Chang'an. When there is a war, they are called out to fight... This is the soldier of the government."
This is an introduction, something everyone knows.
"Generally speaking, most of the government soldiers are selected when they are around 20 years old, and then they serve for decades, either training, fighting, or coming to Chang'an to guard..."
Jia Pingan changed the subject, "What's the use of arguing now? Do you two know what the soldiers think?"
There is silence inside.
"Can you know what the military thinks about this?"
Silence!
"May I know the household department's opinion on this?"
Silence!
Jia Ping'an's tone became more intense, "Suggesting national policy without knowing anything, is this an idea that came up with a pat on the head or a slap on the ass?"
Slapping the head, slapping the butt... Uncle is really apt.
The two servants came out disheartened, and were surprised to see the prince.
Li Hong then entered the guard room.
"Why did you leave the palace?"
Jia Pingan smiled and asked Chen Jinfa to make tea.
Li Hong sat down, "Uncle, I heard what you said, isn't the emperor making decisions while sitting in the palace?"
Chen Jinfa's movements were stiff.
Zeng Xianglin's movements were stiff.
Jia Pingan nodded slightly.
"yes!"
