There are rumors of marriage proposal outside, but the protagonist is here. High quality updates
Looking at her shy expression, Li Chengqian seemed to have guessed something.
"Sister, why have you become a little shy and introverted recently?" Li Chengqian took off his outerwear with snowflakes, sat down and asked his eldest sister.
The eldest sister shook her head quickly and said: "I've always been like this, okay? I'm always very shy with outsiders, but I haven't changed when it comes to my eldest brother. My eldest brother is my eldest brother, don't be afraid!"
"I just came in from outside and heard that someone proposed marriage to you. You are still young and cannot agree to this. I will go into the palace after a while and kick away those people who proposed marriage!" Li Chengqian clapped his hands. , said: "Our eldest sister's marriage must be decided by herself, and cannot be decided by others."
The eldest sister couldn't help but look surprised and said, "Brother, don't you know who asked for marriage?"
Li Chengqian shook his head and asked, "Do you know?"
The elder sister¡¯s face turned red and she lowered her head shyly.
"You don't even know, then I'll go into the palace." Li Chengqian patted his knees and stood up.
The eldest sister quickly grabbed him and said, "Brother, it was Huai Dao who asked grandpa to go to the palace to propose marriage."
"Oh, it turns out to be a boy from the Qin family. So you agree?" He changed the topic and said, "You are still young, under seventeen. High-quality update"
Afraid that Li Chengqian would not know the situation and go into the palace and cause trouble, the eldest sister quickly said, "Brother, I agree. I will be seventeen next year. I can't let others mention it first, otherwise it will be difficult for my father and mother to do their jobs!"
"Oh!" Li Chengqian drawled his voice and looked at her playfully.
The elder sister was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that Li Chengqian was laughing at her. She couldn't help but blush with embarrassment, and took Li Chengqian's hand and shook it. It made Li Chengqian laugh.
The palace did not agree immediately, but it took a few days. A reply soon came from the palace, agreeing that the eldest sister would marry Qin Huaidao.
This made my eldest sister extremely happy.
The wedding date is set for the beginning of March next year.
Preparations for the marriage must begin now.
Li Chengqian told Xiao Chen to set aside a sum of money for her eldest sister¡¯s dowry in the annual report.
Lao Li is now nervously preparing to fight against Goguryeo. He has spent a lot of money in the internal treasury to fight here. I am afraid he will be stingy about the wedding dowry for his eldest sister. The Qin family didn't have much money, so Li Chengqian wanted to make his eldest sister's wedding more glamorous. Transferring this money is a must.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and this year is even more lively than last year.
Furong Garden¡¯s New Year¡¯s Eve was a very lively event. Fireworks were set off for several hours, and everything in Furong Garden was open to the public for free. The high-quality updates even attract people from other cities outside Chang'an to come here to take a look at the scenery of Furong Garden.
After a year of development, Furong Garden has become the top entertainment venue in Chang'an, the Tang Dynasty and the world. Only Furong Garden is the most fun place, there is no other place.
Here, high officials and dignitaries come to play, but they don¡¯t talk about political affairs. Completely apolitical.
But there is a prince sitting here.
during the New Year. Some citizens even exclaimed in surprise when they saw the emperor appearing here.
Furongyuan has established a brand in Chang'an and a position that will not fail.
After the New Year. Everyone is busy again.
The finances of the imperial court were due to preparations for war. Suddenly I became anxious in other places. Lao Li became worried about money.
The big landowners who had enclosed land in Longyou were also anxious about the production of Longyou. Because of lack of manpower.
Now a large number of slaves have been sent there. But there are still not enough people. If there are not enough people, such a large area of ????land is wasted and has no production.
In urgent need of people, Li Chengqian clapped his hands and said: "Isn't there going to be a war somewhere? If there is a war, the chaos over there will cause chaos. What should we do? We must arrest them. With so many people, what are they arresting for? Of course. They are slaves to our Tang Dynasty. So the better and smoother the war is, the more slaves there will be in the Tang Dynasty. Are we afraid that no one will cultivate our fields?"
"You are right. Only when the country is strong can the people be happy. If we, the landowners and common people, want to be happy, we still need to support the court in winning the war. If there is any shortage of food, we are a group of farmers, and we will use the food at home. Give us two handfuls to support the brave warriors and fill their bellies. If anyone is short of money, we will take out two dollars from our pockets and give them to the court so that they can fight the battle smoothly. Two handfuls of rice, two money, it will affect us on the tableIs the dish less colorful? No. Moreover, for the slaves captured later, the court will remember our good deeds and will give them to us first to open up wasteland and farm. Whether we will lose money or not, you all know in your heart! "
Needless to say where the war took place, it was Goguryeo. However, this was a military secret. Even if everyone knew it, they could not tell it.
This is the vested interest group of the Tang Dynasty. Everyone should know it. Unless they don¡¯t want to benefit their own family, they will tell military secrets.
A small landowner stood up and asked: "Your Highness, do you really know that those slaves will pass our hands?"
Li Chengqian rolled his eyes at him and said, "You are still not one of our own, do you need me to say this plainly?"
After saying this, the man shut up in shame.
When you say it, it will be scattered.
The next day, a large group of old men went to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to donate money to support the imperial military and government.
This was an unexpected joy for the Ministry of Civil Affairs, which was nervous about money. However, it did not accept the money immediately. Instead, it went to the palace to ask the ministers of the three provinces and asked them to report to the emperor.
The emperor was also surprised, why did these old landlords send money by themselves?
??Immediately sent someone to investigate. Oh, it was his unknown son who was supporting him behind the scenes. He immediately pulled this bastard into the palace. The two men put their heads together and discussed.
I paid for you to fight against Goguryeo. If you fight against Goguryeo, will it be difficult to manage the large number of people? It¡¯s okay. If you capture them, the men will be sent to Longyou to farm, and the women will come to my cotton factory to work as female workers. Let all the men in Longyou die, and the Goguryeo women will let them get credit for their work, get rid of their slave status, and find a person from Chang'an to marry with dignity.
Yes, the next generation of Goguryeo will be the Tang Dynasty people.
This act of genocide is too gentle and too merciful!
Lao Li clapped his hands, "Okay, bring the money, I'll go do the work!"
After the rulers and landlord leaders reached an agreement, the Ministry of Civil Affairs began to collect donations from the big landlords the next day.
This donation was a deposit paid by the landlord to the slaves purchased from the imperial court, but when it spread to the people, it became a support for national defense construction, so many merchants came to donate a little to show their appreciation.
