Previously, Ji Zhen came to Beijing, and Liu Gong of Luoyang wanted to win him over and gave Feiyan to him. Ji Zhen once got it, he decided to give her, so he treated her with courtesy all the way. Later, when he arrived at Liu An's mansion, Liu An wanted to present her to the King of Jin's mansion, but he did not do anything to her.
After several twists and turns to the King of Jin's mansion, he didn't expect Xue Chongxun to do it as soon as he met.
Xue Chongxun discovered that she was uninformed at this time. She was surprised and surprised and had no choice but to speak and behave much more gently.
She was already delicate, and her tears came out even more, and the pear blossoms were sobbing with rain. Xue Chongxun couldn't help but comfort her, but she was sobbing in the smoke but was speechless.
Xue Chongxun said: I will treat you well.
After hearing this, Feiyan choked up and said: You won’t send me to others again?
Xue Chongxun was stunned: Why did I do that?
She had this idea just because she had experienced it personally, so she said: I was born in a low-class and had no status. If there were any counselors and generals under the King of Jin who took a fancy to me, you would not have given up.
Unexpectedly, Xue Chongxun said flatly: What kind of counselor is that? Even if he is a woman who is still staring at me, why do he want him to do unfaithfulness or filial piety?
At this time, Feiyan had stopped crying and asked: No one can give it?
Xue Chongxun smiled and said: I gave you gold, silver, jade, antiques, calligraphy and paintings. I also gave you jade pendants and scabbards I carried with me, but I never did anything to give it to women.Since you have entered the King of Jin's Mansion, it will be useless for anyone to like him in the future.
Feiyan's face turned red, and he lowered his head and said in a low voice: Where is the emperor?
Xue Chongxun laughed and said arrogantly without hesitation: The emperor will not throw away the bill when he comes.
Fei Yanxin said: I often hear people talk about the King of Jin’s war. He is indeed a martial artist, but at this time, he is much more pleasing to the shamelessness of the scholars and officials of He Jizhen.
She said shyly: I can be so favored by the King of Jin, but I don’t know what kind of blessing I have learned from.
Her attitude was completely different from when she first met. Xue Chongxun was amused. Pity Xiangxiyu may not be effective. She really only needs to take action when it should be done.
However, he didn't laugh out loud, but said seriously: Although you are beautiful, I didn't have any love before, but I thought I was just a famous singer.
After hearing this, Fei Yan thought that this person was strange, cold and hot, why did he suddenly speak like this again?
At this time, Xue Chongxun said again: But now I find that you actually have a lotus-like temperament.
Women love to listen to compliments, and she became curious: What are the similarities between me and lotus?
Xue Chongxun said: It comes out of the mud but is not stained, washes in the clear water but is not in a strait, straight from the middle and outside, without vines or branches, the fragrance becomes clearer from the distance, and planting quietly.
Feiyan thought about it carefully and found that the mud was not stained, wouldn’t he mean that he was born in a brothel or an innocent person?
Xue Chongxun spoke tactfully, but it was very helpful for people to listen to it.
She bit her red lips and said softly: King Jin is so literary.
Only then did she remember that she had heard Xue Chongxun write a poem in Luoyang a few years ago. At that time, she thought it was from a staff member. Now she felt that he was indeed a little bit ink in his stomach. You should know that using poetry appropriately is also talented...
But Feiyan has never seen a literary man do the same style as him.
……
Sure enough, Xue Chongxun did what she said, and soon someone ordered Feiyan to be registered in the Xue family, arranged a fixed place for living and eating, and added 10 or 20 singing girls, so that she could teach on weekdays, which seemed to be staying for a long time.
She was given to Liu An by He Zhizhang, which played some role. Prime Ministers such as Liu An often walked around the princely kingdom and mentioned the matter of growing cotton in front of Xue Chongxun.
Xue Chongxun also likes to wear cotton clothes, especially in summer, home clothes are more sweat-absorbing. He also knows that this kind of white felt is just a commoner's clothing in later generations, but at this time it is expensive and close to silk, which seems to be profitable.
Besides, Liu An’s insights and achievements in people’s livelihood management are obvious to all. Xue Chongxun believes in his vision and talent, so he recognized this matter without thinking about it carefully.
He Zhizhang didn't know how to make a breakthrough in his relationship with Liu An. Perhaps because of his background in Luoyang officialdom, he rose to prominence and soon arrived in Beijing, he became the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and was in charge of weaving.
Several prime ministers from the Zhengshi Hall were more or less coming to the Prince's Kingdom, but Zhang said he had waited less, but Liu An and Dou Huaizhen came around almost every day as if they were entering the house.
During this period, Xue Chongxun mentioned Zhou Bin's crime of illegally murdering an official family, so he naturally had to let it go.
Dou Huaizhen tested Xue Chongxun's attitude in his words, because Zhou Bin was from the Xue Party, and the prime minister also felt that he had to ask first before he could punish him.
Xue Chongxun thought for a while and said: Zhou Bin’s actions were very bad, and he should have been severely punished according to the law... But the murdered Wang family involved Li Longji’s anti-party. If we severely punish Zhou Bin for this, it would be a matter of attitude. Beware of the resurgence of the anti-party.Therefore, I think this matter should not be investigated in detail, but Zhou Bin cannot be left unscrupulous.It would be better to let the Censorate check if this person has any other corruption and abuse of power and find an excuse to demote his post and pay the salary.
Dou Huaizhen immediately slapped: Xue Lang is considerate and it is the most appropriate to deal with it in this way.
The result of the matter was exactly the same as Yu Wenxiao expected, and it was indeed just a blow.
Although Xue Chongxun was in charge of various affairs, his mind was not on it. What he was most concerned about now was the court's tax budget. As for growing cotton to make profits, it obviously had little impact on the overall situation. Liu An's salt administration did not affect the essence. Salt is a necessity for all people in the world, let alone cotton?
Since the reform of the Tax Law, the two tax laws have been implemented. The taxation mainly uses money to replace rent and physical goods, and is divided into summer and autumn twice a year.
Now that the summer tax has been collected, the Chaoli is budgeting the expenses of various departments. Xue Chongxun hopes to reduce other expenses and increase military expenditures.
The party and government were not serious at this time when the two officials were in the same dynasty, and there were not many conflicts in normal times. However, when the budget and finance came, they would still be red in the face. The more money the various ministries had to do more work, so they naturally did not want to give in.
If Xue Chongxun wants to tilt finance as much as possible to the military, he must coordinate the departments and get their support...
But the most important thing is to get the approval of Princess Taiping. With her nodding, other resistance will be simple.
In fact, the temple is still in a dualistic politics. Although Princess Taiping and her son are family, they have a subtle relationship. The father and son are still dualistic, let alone Taiping and Xue Chongxun have different surnames.
So he has been away in the Daming Palace recently. In addition to talking about state affairs with Princess Taiping, he also talks about some nostalgia, after all, it is between mother and son.
Xue Chongxun hopes to convince Princess Taiping to support her propositions in his words.
He felt that since his mother believed in Taoism, she seemed to have been affected and her mood was becoming increasingly unrestrained. At this time, there was no big threat around the Tang Dynasty, and she had no enthusiasm for the Northern War.
When Xue Chongxun mentioned the Turkic incident, she would soon say something else, even a small matter.
One day, I encountered this situation again. After a few words, Princess Taiping suddenly asked: I heard that you have taken a new woman from Dongdu?
Xue Chongxun had no choice but to say unhappy: Yes.
Princess Taiping smiled and said: It seems that she is a little thinner. Why do you have to ask for that kind of person who is in a state of affairs? It is better to choose a few beauties with plump shapes. It is a matter of being able to give birth to a grandson for me.
Xue Chongxun was surprised: Isn’t it just that he accepted a singing girl? How big is it? My mother even knows her figure and appearance?
Although Princess Taiping never leaves the palace all day long, she often practices the false immortal techniques with Yuqing, but her ears and eyes are not blinded, Xue Chongxun dared not look down on it.
Princess Taiping said again: I have four sons, and I like you the most, and I am the eldest son. Which family does not have descendants?This matter is no less important than the Turkish incident, you can't be indifferent to your ears.You said that when you fight against the Turks, how much effort will it take to kill as many people to complete it? Besides, if you don’t fight them, you can threaten our Chang'an?And if you give me a grandson, that is, you will find more women. Isn’t it much easier?
Xue Chongxun hurriedly said respectfully: My son is obeying his mother's order, and when he turns around, he asks someone to find seventeen or eighteen fat girls to come back to live.
Princess Taiping burst out laughing, "What are you talking about? Are you angry with me?"
No.
Xue Chongxun shook his head and said, "My son is serious and does what his mother wants... But the fight against the Turks should not be delayed, and you should prepare early."I promised to pay the Turks money and food before, but it was just a stopgap measure to prevent them from plaguing Hebei. I just waited for a while to recover and then I would get back, otherwise I would have to give one billion yuan in vain every year, which is a big burden to the treasury.
Princess Taiping said: Even if you spend 5 billion, you can destroy the Turkic Khanate?
Xue Chongxun said: The Tang Dynasty is now strong, and in short, it can defeat the cavalry on the grassland.Mother, we should look far away and never let them grow bigger when they are strong, otherwise once they are weak, there will be endless troubles.
Princess Taiping sighed: What do you want to do, how could your mother stop you?But I heard that the doctors and scholars are criticizing you for being powerful and powerful, so I will only advise you for a few words, just understand it in your heart.If you figure it out, I will stand on your side no matter whenever you want, don’t you believe this?
After hearing this, Xue Chongxun knelt down on the ground and said with a look of emotion: My dear, my son really doesn't know how to repay you.
Princess Taiping raised her sleeve and reached out to touch Xue Chongxun's face, looking doting.Her hand slid downwards, placed it on Xue Chongxun's shoulder, and asked: Has the injury healed?
Xue Chongxun didn't react for a while, and after a while he suddenly realized: It's already very quick, and my mother doesn't need to worry about it.
Princess Taiping nodded slightly and gently helped her: Get up, stay in Chengxiang Palace for a while for dinner with me.
yes.
When Xue Chongxun stood up, he saw her lowering her head and pondering something.
Princess Taiping is usually majestic and decisive in her daily life, but Xue Chongxun often accidentally sees her like this by chance if she is not careful. She is always thinking alone, even if there are many people who can discuss it.
After several twists and turns to the King of Jin's mansion, he didn't expect Xue Chongxun to do it as soon as he met.
Xue Chongxun discovered that she was uninformed at this time. She was surprised and surprised and had no choice but to speak and behave much more gently.
