12. Ten thousand lies are true
Soon, King Pu went to Pegasus to chase the ball again, and pulled his relative Cao Wanggao.
In the Hanyin Posthouse in Xiangyang City, in addition to the daily ritual night banquet, the bright and dark discussions between the ministers are also continuing.
Of course, the most hit was Dou Shen, the chief of Taichung in Dongdu, who had carefully planned the marriage of his clan, so he muttered with the "Fifth Brother" in the black curtain for several consecutive days.
"Zhihui, you convinced your uncle and father-in-law, and colluded with the Prince of the King to fabricate the Xingyuan Mansion to bring Hu Ben. Now Dou Shen and his uncle and nephew have been suppressed for the time being, but after all, they can't keep the fire. What should I do if the matter is exposed? What's more, after returning to Xingyuan Mansion immediately, Ruoyunhe knew that we and her father were good at marrying her to a non-existent man - I'm afraid I will..." In the side hall where Gao Yue stayed, Gao Yue felt particularly scared when he said the last sentence, after all, his wife and sister were even more terrifying than the princess.
Of course, there is also an aunt, Lu!
I was only concerned about protecting Yunhe before. Although I was successful, there were also sequelae and it was very difficult.
But Zhihui, who was sorting out letters and documents for him, did not care. Instead, she blushed and looked at herself with admiration. "Zhihui knew that the third brother was actually the third brother. The one who could take all the students into the Daming Palace to beat the drums is a capable man."
"Okay, okay, after I beat the drum, I was ready to be peeled off the human skin and covered the drum. This time was no exception." After Gao Yue finished speaking, he sat on the basket bed, thinking about how to end it.
Zhihui smiled, then came over to comfort her third brother, saying, don’t worry, I guess my aunt should be happy, just leave it to me for clearing the joints.
"A lie must be compensated with ten lies." Gao Yue said sadly.
"So more and more people have to participate in this lie. Ten or hundreds of lies are naturally irreparable, but thousands of them are naturally not a lie. At that time, everyone will have tacit understanding and solutions to prevent the lies from being exposed."
Gao Yue took a deep breath and looked at Zhihui who was half kneeling in front of him. He felt that what she said suddenly was so terrible, but it made sense.
Didn’t she bring her out by Master Xue? Why do I think she is much better than Master Xue?
Soon, Liu Yan's servant Wanda stood at the door and said that the master was in the west pavilion and wanted to tell Shao Yin if he had something to do.
When Gao Yue heard that Liu Yan was looking for him, he ran out immediately.
Then Wanda squatted in the courtyard, and worked with Wei Tuotian, teased the little insects in the grass with a small stick. From time to time, the two of them looked at each other and smiled foolishly.
When Gao Yue walked into the Xiting courtyard, he found that Li Mi and Jia Dan were also present.
"My friend Yisong, I told you that your original question was very exciting. Jia Dunshi and I also have a problem now and need to be solved urgently. Maybe we will be in this Xiting Pavilion without paper and pen, but only with our mouths and stomachs." As soon as we saw Gao Yue, Li Mi raised the topic.
Liu Yan stood there motionless, looking at himself with a smile, feeling that this plan would definitely be answered.
Gao Yue sat down respectfully.
Then Li Mi asked, "Before Yisong left the capital, we must know that the Holy Lord set up a Jinwu, expelled Hu Shang, and left his ancestral hall, property, and livestock."
"This is indeed the case."
"However, the Holy Lord sent an imperial envoy from the Northern Division yesterday, saying that although Hu Shang left, it was difficult for the Hu Shang people (mostly low-end people) in the capital to protect the temples and protect the city. The burden on the Honglu Temple in the court was still very heavy. Moreover, since the Hu Shang left, these people were equivalent to being unemployed, and it was also an unstable factor. The Holy Lord is now worried that these Hu Ke people who lived in Chang'an City for a long time would go to the river to join Li Huaiguang's rebels, or go out to work as mountain sheds in the two prefectures of Tonghua to threaten the transportation of the canal."
As a result, Gao Yue sighed without answering.
Li Mi, Jia Dan and Liu Yan were both surprised why the Gao Shaoyin began to sigh before he could ask.
"Don't blame me, don't blame me. I just thought that Brother Gao and Chu, who are of the same clan, are still trapped in Li Huaiguang's camp, and I can't help but feel sad."
When Jia Dan heard this, he asked Gao Yue to relax his heart and said that the Holy Lord had sent Lu Lun, the original Huaqing Palace envoy of Mount Li, to go to the river to rescue Gao Ying and Cui Zong.
Gao Yue nodded, expressing his peace of mind, and then asked Li Mi: "As far as Yue knows, the court's guest province and Honglu Temple support more than these Hu guests."
"Yes, there are even many Western Region chiefs who came here to pay tribute during the Tianbao period, and generals and schools who came to worship in the towns of Anxi Beiting. After counting, it has been nearly forty years."
After the arrival of these chiefs and generals, due to the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion and the fall of the Hexi land in Longyou and later, they were unable to return, so they were drowned in the Tang government. After many people died, their descendants and families were still supported by the government's guest province and Honglu Temple, which caused a heavy financial burden on the Tang Dynasty, which was almost the same as the second "Uighur City Horse".
Gao Yue thought about it and said to Li Mi: "How much does it cost every year?"
Li Mi stretched out five fingers, which meant 500,000 guan.
Gao Yue recalled the Uighur man he kicked in front of his house. If such a person was not properly solved and let them support themselves, it would be a cancer that was hosted in the imperial capital.
"In fact, it is easy to solve this problem. The number of Hu Ke, the chief of the tribute and the generals and generals of Anxi Beiting was promoted, and then they were all added to the imperial guards in the palace city. Hu Ke was appointed as the army soldiers, and the chief of the chief and generals were appointed as the generals."
"Imperial Guard?"
"That's right, now the Shen Ce camp is united. Your Majesty is preparing to set it up in the northwest border, called the 'Sons of Shen Ce camp in front of the palace'; Your Majesty is also preparing to set up a new imperial guard to replace the former Shen Ce unity in the Kinnet. This group of people can be recruited into the army." Gao Yue calculated with his fingers, and then whispered: "Sons of Shen Ce Tong's grandfather have mostly surrendered to the rebels after the Changwushi transformation. Now the capital city has a lot of empty space, so we just use the real to make up for the weakness."
"Yes." Li Mi, Jia Dan, Liu Yan and others nodded, thinking that Gao Yue's Fang Ce was killing two birds with one stone:
Originally, when Bai Zhizhen was managing the Shen Ce Army, because Shen Ce camp was in Heshuo and suppressed the rebellion in the Central Plains, there were many casualties and injuries, and there was no suitable and excellent source of troops to supplement the troops, so he temporarily crammed and sent the people in Chang'an to make up for the quota. As a result, these people used the money to pay the class to bribe the military generals and did not go out to the expedition. They still stayed in Chang'an City to sell cakes. The ones who gave Bai Zhizhen and the emperor were just a list of ranks of ranks, and had to pay huge military expenses. When the Changwu Army entered, Li Shi asked Shen Ce Army to protect the troops, but there was no one in the city. Only a few Beiya, Jinwu soldiers and eunuchs followed him. Now, Hu Ke and Anxi Beiting generals were supplemented with the children of the school to make up for the reality. The Shen Ce Army's expenses of the imperial guards could at least fall on the specific people, which also enhanced the combat effectiveness of the imperial guards;
In addition, after joining the Imperial Army, these people ate military expenses and no longer needed to save customers or Honglu Temple to support them. In this way, the military expenses of the imperial court did not need to increase, but the concierge expenses of Honglu Temple were saved, with a total of 500,000 jin a year, which is "one kill, two birds with one stone."
"Okay, wonderful!" Li Mi was overjoyed. "I will definitely report to the Holy Lord for the 500,000 yuan saved, to use it for the "maintenance of weapons and money" in the northwest, east and west of the mountain and Shu towns to enrich and innovate the armies!"
