The sixth watch is sent, for the monthly pass to fight, brothers, if you still have a ticket, please support it, today's sixth watch Changan.
Chang'an in July is much hotter than Hanjing.
Li Shimin wore a short cardigan coat, a pair of loose pants underneath, a pair of herringbone wooden slippers on his feet, and a sweat towel around his neck.
"It's really hot."
Li Shimin held a cup of iced sour plum soup in his hand and took a sip from time to time.
In a cup of sour plum soup, I added more than half a cup of ice.
It's unexpectedly hot.
For this reason, Li Shimin had to adjust the time of sending troops, and the army rested and reorganized in Chang'an to avoid this scorching heat.
"If it continues to be hot like this, we will have to leave in autumn."
At the earliest, it will have to be the Mid-Autumn Festival, which means that they will have to stay here for more than a month.
Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji were also dressed in the same short as Li Shimin, but fortunately, they were originally on the edge of the pool, and they did not seem to lose their majestic etiquette.
"Your Majesty, the situation in the Western Regions is not bad, since the death of Ye Hu, although he succeeded to the throne, he did not have the prestige of his father, and Mo Helu was under the banner of my Tang Dynasty, and many of Ye Hu's subordinates of the original Tong Ye Hu began to switch to Mo Hedu.
Even if we don't enter the Western Regions for a while, the situation won't be bad. ” Far from being bad, the situation will get better.
At this time, it was difficult for the imperial court to march in the heat of the summer, but instead responded to the situation of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight.
"Let Mo Helu and Yu Li fight first, the fight is almost over, just as Tuyuhun, Xue Yantuo, Khitan, Xi, and Muwei have passed over again, let them continue to fight, we don't have to worry.
After we march into the Western Regions in the autumn breeze, maybe the Western Regions have already lost both sides, and we just happen to fight the Western Regions.
Eldest Sun Wuji said with a smile.
"What you said is indeed reasonable, no one expected that this superior force would be defeated by his uncle Mo Hedu, who had been beaten by his father and was about to collapse.
This is really providential," Li Shimin sighed.
It's better not to rush to send troops to the Western Regions.
"For more than a month, let the 100,000 soldiers who have gathered first take advantage of the cool weather in the morning and evening to strengthen their training.
As for the people, let them go home for the time being, and it is not too late to call for transportation when the weather is cold. ” Li Shimin wiped his sweat with a sweat towel, but the stuffiness and irritability in his heart could not be solved.
"Let's continue to talk about the matter of spreading the acre."
Yu Wenshi said, "Your Majesty, it is a good thing to spread the land into the mu and never add to it."
But we may face great opposition, the officials and gentry pay grain in one piece, and divide the land into the acre, these are all things that are not good for the aristocracy, bureaucracy, and landlords, they may oppose it, and their attitude may be very resolute. ” Li Shimin looked at Yuwen Shiji, "Yuwen Aiqing, you are the left servant, you are the prime minister, and you are in a high position among the hundred officials, do you also oppose this new law?"
Yu Wenshi smiled awkwardly.
In his heart, of course, he is against the new law, but standing in such a high position, he must be consistent with the imperial court.
Before the emperor said that he was not sick, he was against the new faction and the old party.
But the old party made a fuss, but the result was that Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda resigned, and Liu Xun was exiled.
The emperor came out again to look at the matter, and his attitude became obvious.
He also knew the emperor's intentions to implement the new law, so his attitude changed a lot during this time.
It was no longer a staunch opposition to the new law, but it was a move towards accepting the new law, but proposing some improvements to the new law.
"The minister supports His Majesty's decision."
It's a slippery answer, but Li Shimin is quite satisfied.
"In the past few days, I have carefully considered this new method of Li Chao and Ma Zhou.
I have to say that this is a rather bold new law, very radical, but also very long-term.
Li Chao is right, the uniform field system and the modulation of rent are only suitable for wars and troubled periods such as the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and for the beginning of the founding of the country such as the early Sui and early Tang dynasties.
At that time, there were few people in the fields and a lot of land was barren, so the imperial court implemented the equalization of land and the adjustment of rent, which was in line with the situation. ” "But my Tang Dynasty dominates the world, and with the development of time in the future, the population will expand a lot, but the fields will not expand much, especially the problem of land annexation that the imperial court cannot stop at all, the more time goes back, the more people will lose their land, and more people will no longer be able to get enough land, or even no land at all."
"We need to look not only to the present, but also to the future.
People have no worries, but they must have immediate worries.
If we don't prepare better shoes in advance, then we won't be able to wear shoes, and forcing old shoes will only hurt our feet and even make it impossible for us to walk. ” After Li Shimin figured these things out, the concept in his mind also turned a corner.
He is not the kind of stubborn emperor, but he can understand the situation and quickly turn the tide.
Since this two-tax law of apportionment into mu is better than the rent adjustment system of the uniform land system, and it can make Datang stable for a long time, then why should he not use it What he has always remembered in his heart is Li Chao's words, if the new two-tax law of apportionment into mu is implemented, the Tang Dynasty will be able to guarantee at least 500 years without worry.
Five hundred years may not sound good, but Li Shimin is a realistic person.
He thinks that 500 years is actually good enough.

The two Han Dynasty are only more than 400 years old, and Li Chao said that this new law can protect the Tang Dynasty for 500 years, which is enough to move Li Shimin.
One will never be endowed, so that he can realize that this sentence can at least last for Datang for another hundred years.
But even if the tax is never increased, as long as the new law is implemented and the current new policy is maintained, then the imperial court will have a revenue of 80 million yuan a year, even if it subtracts the losses that may be caused by natural disasters, as well as tax reductions and exemptions, under normal circumstances, it will be at least 70 million yuan a year.
With this money, the imperial court has confidence.
Shouting a sentence will never be endowed, the face that can be shouted is not red and the ears are not red, and the shouting is full of energy.
As long as these goals can be achieved, then Li Shimin is willing to stop the rent and rent adjustment of the land equalization, comprehensively implement the two taxes, and apportionment of the land to the mu, and the officials and gentry pay the grain in one piece.
If anyone dares to stop him, he will dare to clean him up.
"Your Majesty has really decided to implement the apportionment into the mu, and the officials and gentry will pay the grain in one."
Li Shimin nodded, "Not only have I decided to divide the Ding into the mu, and the officials and gentry will pay the grain in one piece, but I will never increase the endowment, after the Tang Dynasty, no matter how much the number of people increases, the amount of Ding will always be fixed at 15 million, and it will never be increased." ” "Your Majesty, there will be a lot of people who oppose it, whether to figure it out step by step" "No, I have to show my determination, otherwise, it will be difficult to carry out."
Li Shimin said very confidently, and he believed that when he vigorously implemented this new law, then the nobles, bureaucrats, landlords, and businessmen in the world would have some complaints, but in the end they would still be able to carry it out.
This is a national policy related to the fate of the Tang Dynasty for 500 years.
"Report to Your Majesty, Hanjing has an urgent recital to be delivered" An inner servant came to perform.
Hurry up the report, could it be that something important happened in Hanjing Li Shimin frowned, "Pass it in." ” The recital was quickly sent in, and to his surprise, it was not a military matter, but a recital sent by Wen Daya, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy.
This concert was also jointly signed by more than 1,000 Beijing officials such as the Hanlin Academy, more than 3,000 officials, and more than 8,000 scholars and merchants.
The more Li Shimin looked at his face, the darker it became, he never expected that there were so many opponents and such a resolute attitude t1706231537:
