However, in terms of feng shui and fortune-telling, Southern Bingdinghuo is really more powerful, and maybe there will be a child when it comes out this time.

In fact, the army naturally cannot bring family members, but at Zhang Nuo's level, some regulations are actually nonsense, not to mention that Zhang Nuo does not bring concubines, maidservants and the like, but what he brings is serious. The head wife of Qin Wangfu.

After returning to Zhongnan, Zhang Nuo went to see Li Chengqian first. This kid came back several days before him, and now he was immersed in competing with the various papers that had been accumulated before.

Zhang Nuo laughed, turned his head and left. If he didn't leave, would he be waiting for Li Chengqian to throw the blame? This kid is getting older and older, and now he is no longer the honest boy he used to be. He has also learned to play tricks with the teacher up.

Of course, the essence has not changed, but there is more of an adult's tact and calmness in getting along.

After Zhang Nuo returned to his newly arranged residence, his eyes suddenly brightened. It's different to have a woman.

In the past, Cao Xing or Cao Xing arranged for his room to be tidied up, so it can't be said that it was not good, but gentlemen, it would be nice if he could keep these things close to each other, how meticulous can we expect?

But it's different when Hongyu comes. She was born in the imperial palace, and has always been by the side of Empress Changsun. No matter in the palace or in Prince Qin's mansion, these short things of the parents who tidy up have never been worrying about.

So as soon as Zhang Nuo came in, he felt, mother, you still have to have a woman by your side. The quality of life is completely different.

Of course, not only the quality of life has suddenly changed from a rough old man to a refined one, but the quality of life has also improved. At least one place has been vented, right?

Zhang Nuo brought Hongyu this time, and it was Hongyu who asked for it on her own initiative. It was rare for her to speak, so Zhang Nuo had to show her face, not to mention that he had been in Zhongnan for too long this time. So what's the matter with the two divisions?

A good first-class prince and the number one king in the world, but he acts like a monk with a pure heart and asceticism, what a fart it is to live that day.

Not to mention singing and dancing every night, but at least there must be a basic married life!

In fact, whether it is Li Shimin or the eldest grandson empress, even the people around him and even Hongyu have advised him, even if he does not accept concubines or side concubines, he must have a few maids around him to serve and warm the bed.

But Zhang Nuo used to be a bastard who spent many years in health care facilities, but now he has become a sage who is not interested.

He even pretended to say that other than his own wife, no one else was interested.

Well, when the word got out, His Royal Highness King Qin almost became a friend of women, and the reputation of their husband and wife being deeply affectionate spread farther and farther.

As a matter of fact, one-third of it is because you stand high enough and see enough, you will find that the so-called beauty is really that.

Another third is because there are too many beauties I have seen, and I really set my sights higher and higher. Earlier, Zhang Xiaomei and Hongdou were all prepared as house-filling girls. The white and tender little flowers, but now, they are all released to get married and become mothers.

For the last third, it may be that Zhang Nuo deliberately suppressed it in order to maintain his own style.Otherwise, it's really useless to say that you are young and have strong firepower!

Chapter 936

At this time, Chang'an City was at night, and the whole city slowly returned to silence from the noise and liveliness of the day, and even the fiery heat of autumn had become a ubiquitous autumn wind at this time.

Li Shimin stood on the high steps in front of the Tai Chi Hall, silently watching the gradually sinking Chang'an City, without speaking for a long time.

It seems that he hasn't seen Chang'an City like this for a long time. His daily busyness and continuous study have already filled his life. He seems to have become a small ant in Chang'an City, walking through it from time to time. In an urban maze.

But at this moment he remembered that I am not one of the crowd, I can actually watch all this from a high place.

It's nothing to bow your head and become a little ant. Not only is it not a shameful thing to be a Chang'an person, but it's quite proud to say it. After all, it's worthwhile for an emperor to have fun with the people no matter what time it is said. Compliments.

But if you bow your head for a long time, you have to straighten your back from time to time, otherwise some fools will think that he doesn't exist.

Li Shimin slowly caressed the little lion on the railing. The naive little lion squatted on the hydrangea, and stroked the lion's head with his palm. Every time he could feel the smoothness of the polished stone and the hot sun during the day The warm aftermath left behind.

This position has been Li Shimin's habit for many years. He often stands here to look at Chang'an City in front of him, and he can always find peace here.

Perhaps this is the case for all people, even the most passionate people have time to calm down, hoping to have a moment of leisure to enjoy the silence alone, so that the thoughts immersed in the bottom of my heart can slowly evaporate and drift away.

In Li Shimin's own words, whether there is a sense of Zen in this matter may not be discussed, but at least this habit can make him more awake and more comfortable. Standing and taking a look can make him understand what he is going to do. to get something.

It's a pity that, as an emperor who manages a lot of things every day, and the ruler of an empire, leisure is really just a moment of enjoyment for him.

Not long after, a figure whose whole body seemed to melt into the darkness quietly walked behind Li Shimin, and said softly,

"Master's family, I found out. There are three families behind them, Tubo, Taiyuan Wang's family, and a wave of Jianghu people. The people in the family are investigating, but there are many dead people on the other side, and it is difficult to keep them alive!"

Li Shimin sighed softly, it's not good news.

He found various reasons to urge Zhang Nuo to leave Chang'an City. In fact, he wanted to arrest this matter himself. It wasn't that he didn't trust Zhang Nuo, but that he didn't want to save some time between brothers. face?

When the accident happened, in fact, Zhang Nuo was thinking of drawing people out of the army, and resorted to personal sea tactics, so he followed the clues and went all the way.

But Li Shimin refused, and even drove Zhang Nuo away, just because he was afraid that there would be troubles caused by his old Li family in the past, and he even discussed it with his father several times about it.

Don't look at his father as an idle old man now, but it would be strange for a person who can become the founding emperor to have poor eyesight and wrists, let alone how old Li's family started back then, how much secret there is in it, even now Li Shimin has only a half-knowledge of.

After the father and son communicated several times, Li Shimin decisively withdrew the Security Bureau from the quagmire first, and then the Supervision Department investigated on the surface, but the traces that were traced were handed over to their old Li family's secret staff to follow them all the way.

This kind of dirty thing is still reliable for the people raised by one's own family. It's better to be fine, and it can be rotten in one's own house if something happens. After all, it's already the royal family of heaven and earth, so it still needs some face.

Facts have proved that this matter is really not what he expected.

Except for the Tubo line, which he didn't expect, the other two are obviously the root cause of the past.

The Taiyuan Wang family was originally the strongest family among the five surnames and seven Wangs. It was also the one that supported the most when the old Li family started, and their status was even more detached.

However, in the past few years, the Li Shimin and Zhang Nuo brothers frequently resorted to various methods, which made the aristocratic family find out that the world has become different from the past before they can figure out the situation. The status has long lost the detachment of the past.

Not to mention that with the rapid development of various new industries, various honorable families and merchant families are constantly rising, and the gap between them and traditional families is rapidly shortening in terms of financial resources, manpower, and prestige.

Especially in terms of financial resources, to put it bluntly, as long as you don’t fight and live honestly in this world, you are still running for money after all. Whoever has money, or is rich in an open and honest manner, will inevitably have a greater advantage than others.

In the past, the financial resources of the aristocratic families were mainly reflected in the food and the copper ingots and silver balls hidden in the underground and dark vaults in the past years. Food can guarantee their right to speak. It's about eating.

But now, food is no longer a problem. Whose house is not full of warehouses, even eating meat is not a luxury, and buying and selling food is no longer a profiteering industry. It is only because it involves national stability, so the court Just more concerned.

After all, there are several high-yield foods such as potatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes. At least people will starve to death.

And those old family backgrounds that were hidden at home in the past are even more miserable now, or they will be sold directly to the government as silver and recast into silver coins.Otherwise, it can only be sold as ordinary precious metal minerals.

Today's imperial court has long implemented coinage control. Except for the mint that Zhang Nuo cooperated with the court, any other coinage is a felony.

Just this one step completely emptied the family's so-called heritage, and the people gradually got used to only recognizing high-quality silver coins from the bank.

Not to mention the big killer of the bank, if your family has money or not, you will know if you take a photo of the passbook, except for this and real money, others will not be recognized.

So what can these families do now?Wealth shrinks, power falls, industry declines, status plummets...

To put it bluntly, they have been completely pulled down from the altar by Li Shimin and Zhang Nuo. They can either follow the trend and go back on the road with a down-to-earth attitude, relying on the contacts, resources, and financial resources accumulated over the years to re-enclose the land, or keep it. Forced to drink the northwest wind on the altar.

The former is the vast majority, and the latter is not without it. Fan Yang Lu's family is like this. Although his family is not obvious, it is actually a real master in the literary world today. As long as it is related to education and the literary world, no matter where They all have their presence.

Chapter 937

For those wealthy Longshang families who supported Lao Li's family back then, supporting Lao Li's family was an investment. Now that your family has successfully listed and established a country, it's time for us to share dividends and cut leeks.

However, their spokesperson, Li Yuan, has not been established for a few years, and the second generation spokesperson, Li Jiancheng, has not taken over.

So, fundamentally speaking, the two are hedgehogs who have confrontation and cooperation. They have to forge ahead and guard against each other. If Zhang Nuo hadn't appeared, there would have been many disturbances between the two Woolen cloth.

Do you really think that Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li You who rebelled in history were all Li Shimin's so-called pot for raising children?

Tiger poison doesn't eat children. Lao Li really likes to put pressure on his children, but in fact, if there are no various interest groups behind him, it would be strange for these brats to rebel.

After all, rebellion is not enough for a certain prince to jump up and shout twice.

So the book returns to the topic, the current Datang, under the leadership of Li Shimin and the help of Zhang Nuo, has become the representative of the interests of the vast majority of people, and has taken care of the interests of the vast majority of people as much as possible. Doesn't it represent the fall of the old interest groups?

Although most of the families finally chose to follow the trend and take root in the Tang Dynasty, put down their airs and start anew, but those who were used to being superior in the past suddenly realized that they could not look down at others, and everyone around them was on the same level as themselves. How can this feeling be alleviated by a few words and a period of time?

Even Fan Yang and the Lu family, who cooperated most closely with Datang, never had a trace of ambition in their hearts in the dead of night?

This is true even for the Lu family who ranks at the bottom, let alone the Wang family in Taiyuan, which ranks first among the five surnames and seven Wangs. The one who contributed the most, after all, who made his house not far from Lao Li's house.

However, no matter how high you stood before, how deep your hatred is now.

As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, and it is difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. How many people can bear the predicament of going from a top-notch family that even the royal family did not pay attention to, to a predicament that competes with honorable and even merchant families for food?

Especially on Li Shimin's side, Zhang Nuo made an idea and he came forward to develop industries, stimulate employment, strictly check the amount of land, and regulate land transactions...

The successive tricks were like a set of combined punches hitting the family's head, ranging from staring at the eyes to bleeding from the head.

As for the Wang family, they are the ones with bloody heads!

His family used to have a large area and a large number of people. Basically, people working for his family for a hundred miles. Entering the clan studies of the Wang family, if the talent is high enough and the learning is good enough, they will be pushed out by the Wang family to become a petty official when they grow up, and become a member of the Wang family's old disciples all over the world.

This kind of life is low-key but comfortable, who is not living a happy life, but now, it is gone, not just temporarily, it is completely gone, how comfortable it was before, now I am resentful That's how big it is.

Therefore, the Wang family began to think of a way.

However, in the past few years, Datang has undergone too many changes, almost changing every day, and many places have even been changed so that the old Wang's family doesn't even recognize it.

In other words, if the royal family of Taiyuan still wants to incite people to rebel or instigate a certain prince as before, it seems that there is no chance at all.

After all, they are not stupid. Only when the people are struggling to make ends meet, those ordinary people who can't survive will choose to follow the people to rebel, because they can't survive anyway, and there may be a way out if they try.

But now, hehe, wouldn’t it be good to hurry up and earn some money when you have the time to rebel? Is it because farming is not tiring enough or the workshop is not busy enough?

If rebellion doesn't work, instigating the prince would be even more nonsense. Now Li Chengqian's crown prince is even more stable than Mount Tai, and even at this moment, he is the only one among all the princes who has the throne. He is simply nailed to the crown prince. .

Not to mention that there are two big mountains behind him, Li Shimin and Zhang Nuo, which prince dares to dance with Li Chengqian when he is full?I'm afraid that Li Shimin and Zhang Nuo will directly kill him with a backhand if he just shows up.

If you can't go left or right, then the Wang family has only one way, and that is to use the connections they have accumulated over the years, as well as the vague but real relationship network in the officialdom, to completely make Li Shimin's debut difficult and make Li Shimin bow his head.

But in fact, Li Shimin took the initiative to attack them before they started to make a fuss, and took advantage of the opportunity of the New Deal to be pushed out on a large scale, and replaced them one by one.

This is also thanks to the continuous training of new officials in Lantian City over the past few years, not only in Lantian City, but also in Chang'an City after the implementation of the New Deal.

Obviously, one person can do a job well, but no, three or even four people can do the same job. Everyone takes turns to do things well and learn some experience at the same time.

Then when Li Shimin gave an order, a large number of young but experienced officials Wuyang and Wuyang rushed to various yamen and places.

Can you say Li Shimin is right?

Shouldn't officials be trained?Shouldn't the more reserve talents, the better?

In any case, the Wang family just swallowed their teeth, and watched helplessly as the staff they had worked so hard for years were replaced so cleanly.

Those who have problems will be dismissed directly, and those who have no problems will be transferred to the idle yamen. Those with good ability and relatively clean are better. They can be retrained and appointed later, but after such a toss, that person is still a member of the Wang family. ?

Therefore, the Wang family tossed and tossed, and in the end it seemed to be calm, but in fact they were planning to take risks.

They also understand that what is colluding and fanning the flames is actually not as powerful as their own in the end. If they really had the strength and were not so low-key back then, there is no need to invest in the old Li's family, but to go up on their own .

However, it is not bad to start slowly accumulating strength now, at least it is much easier to make money now.

And as long as there is money, how can the wealth accumulated by the Wang family over the years be the land and wealth on the surface?

This is too underestimating their aristocratic family that has been passed down from generation to generation. The century-old dynasty and the thousand-year-old family are not just arrogant, they all have their own trained manpower!

Chapter 938 No one is a fool

The so-called manpower of the Wang family is actually dead soldiers, and they are not ordinary dead soldiers. They are the kind who have undergone years of training, and their wives and children live in the Wang family and are well taken care of by the Wang family.

On the surface, it might look like a powerful but ordinary nurse.But in fact, turning around and changing into night clothes is a fierce man who jumps over the roof, kills and robs.

The weapon blueprints produced by the Wang family this time were sent by dead soldiers to obtain them. For them, this kind of bribery to inquire about information is the best thing to do.

There is no need to take any risks, as long as the handles are cleaned up so that no one will be involved in the family, then the rest of the matter is actually very simple.

Perhaps it was the easy success of the first order that gave them courage. Of course, there were also reasons from the family, because even the Wang family did not expect that Datang would not be able to deal with such a "high-tech" and "secret" weapon blueprint. It's a waste of money to keep it secret.

However, because of this, after confirming the authenticity of the blueprint and successfully creating a "new weapon" in the secret workshop at home, the Wang family went crazy with joy.

With this magical weapon in hand, as long as they are given a little time to slowly accumulate wealth and cultivate a team, the future can be expected.

At the same time, it is precisely because they made it themselves and tested it that they know why Zhang Nuo's troops are now invincible. This is not a dimensional weapon at all. It is no wonder that the opponent can withstand it. Woolen cloth.

And it's just a personal weapon. They know that when the military really sieges cities and lands, it relies on cannons, which are the real artifacts. As long as there are such things, no matter what city walls you have, you will have to knock them down.

If you want to rebel, then this thing is essential.

The Wang family thought very clearly, since you, Li Shimin, made a mistake and didn't pay attention to this place, then don't blame my old Wang family for stealing your way.

Therefore, in order to further obtain the blueprints of the artillery, and even get more advanced blueprints, the dead soldiers here put more effort into it.

It is not the first time for them to do this kind of thing. It is very clear that the people in the weapons research institute don't just look at them and just collect money to do things. But if you want to continue to make higher-level blueprints, you can't just It used to be that simple.

It's not that they haven't thought about using threats, but they don't dare to take risks in this kind of thing, because they know very well that people's hearts are the most irresistible detection. The family members went to surrender directly and confessed them?

The lives of the few of them don't matter, they are all dead men anyway, but once this matter gets out, it goes without saying, their lives will definitely be gone, but the matter will never be done, they don't feel that the other party has found out In the future, he will foolishly wait for other people to rush in and grab the wool.

So, this group of people didn't know what to think, and turned around to stir up the spies and dead men from several other families.

It's also interesting to say, maybe it's because the so-called flies don't bite seamless eggs. In the past, there were ghosts and shadows in this place of the Weapons Research Institute, but recently there are a few more that don't look big. Eye-catching figure.

For the dead soldiers, they were all in the same company, and the smell could be smelled two streets away, and they asked each other in slang, well, I understand, they all disliked Li Shimin.

Although everyone didn't report their families clearly, but if they said some things in a secret way, everyone would understand in their hearts.

Turning around, Wang's family made two copies of the drawings he had just obtained, and then sold them to these two colleagues at a high price, and introduced his relationship in the Weapons Research Institute to these two two.
