Chapter 761: Reclaim the fief and return it

"It's still... not." Li Longji calmed down instantly and did not immediately ask Zhang Xiaobao why the prince and princesses had so much knowledge that they shouldn't learn. The administration of the government could not involve the princess anyway.

"Eat together?" Zhang Xiaobao tentatively invited.

"What do you think? I have to go back to have dinner once I come?" Li Longji glared at her eyes.

"Okay, today we eat northern dishes, or we can cook new Sichuan cuisine." Zhang Xiaobao began to consider specific operations.

Li Longji didn't say anything, and Li Hong said, "What's that?"

"Total anesthesia is completely spicy." Zhang Xiaobao replied.

"Isn't spicy food from the northern part of Hebei Road? That is, where you are officials?" Li Hong was surprised.

Zhang Xiaobao shook his head: "How can the spicy taste be put in the Northeast? The Northeast should be mainly stewed, and the method of cooking dried vegetables is made by living conditions. The seeds brought from outside are not growing well in the Northeast. I am talking about spicy seeds. Only places with humid and hazy weather should eat spicy food. Your Highness will know when the seeds reproduce."

For a moment, Zhang Xiaobao could not explain to Li Hong that the choice of dishes was greatly affected by the region.

"Okay, try it." Li Hong made the decision. He had never eaten a full-spicy dish.

Li Longji learned some of the situation. The seeds of various crops transported from the northern part of Hebei Road to the capital were sent to various places in the Tang Dynasty by Sinong Temple for trial planting, and they also found ways to graft and improve them. At the same time, crops from the Yellow River or south of the Yangtze River were also sent to the north for improvement.

For example, oranges are said to be oranges in Huainan and citrus in Huainan. It has been told that the oranges in Huainan are not good, but Sinong Temple still insists on sending oranges to various places for trial planting, hoping to cultivate varieties suitable for local planting.

The chili peppers are just one word: spicy, and there is no big and not much spicy bell pepper that Xiaobao and Juanjuan said, because the continuous grafting of Sinong Temple and the Bohai Governor's Office did not appear.

After a meal, everyone was sweating profusely. Li Hong basically filled with half of the food and half of the water. He took a sip of the water.

For the first time, Li Longji has learned about Zhang Xiaobao's skills in making this kind of vegetable, which is incomparable to the spicy dishes Zhang Xiaobao ate on his way out.

"Xiaobao, can the people of Sichuan and Shu really eat it on weekdays?"

"Yes, after large-scale planting, you can't let them eat it. The wine in Sichuan is so spicy and the softer than Jiangnan. Who knows who feels comfortable after eating it? The need for survival and natural choices are never reversed, like the people and government, water energy..."

"Water can carry boats, but also overturn the boats. I know that I don't need you to teach this in this regard. You should continue to teach the princes and princesses, teach them how to be kings, and then establish their own princes. When you have nothing to do, you will fight each other and train them."

Li Longji followed the words and led him to the purpose of his visit today, and asked Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan to see what they were teaching.

Zhang Xiaobao naturally refused to admit: "How can you become a prince? You don't have military power. Juanjuan and I just want to take back the local fiscal revenue from their hands. In the future, local fiscal revenue will increase and continue to give them the development of the fief of their belongings.

I will say nothing about it. Your Majesty, a father, is at the risk of being criticized by the world, saying that you are not polite to your children and make your children have a difficult life.

Therefore, it is better to let them hand over it over and send it back to them."

"What's the difference? I hand it over and send it back. When I'm free and have nothing to do? I didn't understand why their fiefdoms would be poor? Is it better to hand over and send it to them?"

After hearing Zhang Xiaobao say something and come back, Li Longji asked in a faint tone and waited for Zhang Xiaobao to give an explanation.

Li Hong was also waiting. He also wanted to know whether Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's plans were really going to cultivate many princes and then go with him... Oh no, fighting with the future emperor, his position as a prince does not seem to be solid.

Zhang Xiaobao glanced at Wang Juan and saw that Wang Juan had no intention of explaining, so he had to speak by himself.

"Your Majesty has many children, many fiefs, and princes are crowned as kings, but they are often famous but not real. There are few who have accomplished things. Why? That's..."

"Talk me well, I know you are the top scholar, don't be arrogant." Li Longji has also learned a lot of new words.

"In fact, it's Your Majesty that you use the financial income from all over the Tang Dynasty to support a group of idle people. They find that they have no use, so they just want to have fun all day long. They are more playful and more at ease. Such people cannot compete for power.

The princes you sent out are basically named in the local area, and they can't choose one of the ten people who can do big things. When the people in their fiefdom saw that their income was given to them, the local officials would have no motivation.

They have not learned much governance methods yet. They see that there are more money in other places and less money from their fiefdoms. The only way is to deepen exploitation. The more they exploit the local political economy, the worse it will be, and eventually it will become a vicious cycle."

Zhang Xiaobao explained that he stopped here and gave Li Longji some time to think. I believe that Li Longji is still smart and understandable.

As expected, Li Longji didn't think about it for too long, so he nodded and said, "Continue, speed."

Li Hong next to him finally realized that his father was not as serious as he had always thought. When facing Zhang Xiaobao's family, he could say anything. What is the "speed"? Is it fast or slow? If you say this in Hanyuan Palace, the ministers will immediately fall halfway.

Zhang Xiaobao did not consider Li Hong's feelings and continued: "Teaching them more knowledge, they will naturally pay attention to it. People who really have thoughts about a certain position in their hearts can take advantage of this opportunity to express it directly.

At that time, you can discuss with them, take back their fiefdoms, and then arrange them to be administered in various places. Just like the Monopoly game, set a rule and let them compare with each other.

You can publish your own administrative policies in newspapers or even attack other people's administrative methods. In the end, you will definitely leave many excellent governance methods. Add textbooks and many failures. Add textbooks to the next generation to compare.

Juanjuan and I will teach them another three months of class, and then we will go to the north to train troops. If they want to learn, they can only learn from books, or think about it themselves. I think the Tang Dynasty will be very lively next year."

"Is it very messy?" Li Longji said, narrowing his eyes and began to think.

Li Hong quietly came to Zhang Xiaobao and asked softly: "Where is me...what of me?"

What he means is that if someone else has something to do, he cannot go to somewhere to administer. Isn’t it an idle person?

"Next year, your Majesty will go out to tour all over the country. If the war is successful, your Majesty will also go over and conquer it personally. You will continue to supervise the country. When Your Majesty is in the capital, you will go out to tour. Now the national treasury is more money, and it is not necessary to avoid this fee. If it really doesn't work, I can pay it."

Zhang Xiaobao also said in a low voice.

Li Hong was happy. The country was so regent. Even if it was just a temporary exercise of power, it would be satisfying. Going out for a tour is also a good choice. Who doesn’t want to play? In the past, the prince of the Eastern Palace wanted to travel around the Tang Dynasty to enjoy the mountains and rivers.

"I can't play for a long time, and I forgot about the serious business?" Li Hong was a little worried.

"No, you see the lives of the people. Whether it is tears or smiles, you will be more determined to make them live a better life. We should not cherish and have a great country?"

Zhang Xiaobao waved his hand, as if he had included all the country.

Li Hong nodded suddenly: "Yes, you can see more things outside, and the country is also very good. Thank you for your hard work, and you still have to go to fight."

"It's okay, I have to fight, either being beaten or being beaten. When one day there is no fight in the world, it means that all species have disappeared, including flowers, plants and trees." Zhang Xiaobao sighed.

"I... finally understand." When Zhang Xiaobao and Li Hong muttered, Li Longji suddenly spoke, which scared Li Hong.

Gao Lishi cooperated and asked, "Your Majesty, what do you understand?"

"I know why Xiaobao and Juanjuan chose this matter at the moment."

"Why?" Gao Lishi continued to cooperate.

"They were afraid that when they were recruiting the supplies of various fiefs, they were blocked and disturbed by the little movements behind the princes and princesses. At that time, they were training troops in the north and could not get back, and it was difficult to deal with other people's identities.

Now it’s different. The benefits are given, so that they can do something and get rewards for their achievements. Of course, they have to cooperate with Xiaobao and Juanjuan. Providing military supplies is also a result."

Li Longji said proudly.

Gao Lishi made a thoughtful statement and nodded like a teaching: "Your Majesty is wise."

"Xiaobao, I'm not wrong, right? Was it?" Li Longji asked Zhang Xiaobao with a smile.

"Your Majesty is wise." Zhang Xiaobao repeated the words of his godfather.

As a result, Li Longji felt relieved after hearing what he admitted.

"No, and I'll think about it." Li Longji narrowed his eyes again.

Zhang Xiaobao shrugged and looked at Wang Juan, and Wang Juan returned a smile.
