Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Chapter 564 Wei Zheng Considers

Those three hairpins were naturally found by Li Ke from the warehouse. I don’t know which girl used them. The material is probably artificial jade or the like. It's not that the ancient carvings were not good, but that there are some things that are difficult to make with simple carvings.

Many of them are directly integrally formed.

Li Ke did prepare the shop for Wei Zheng. The main reason is that Wei Zheng, as a third-rank official, has an annual salary of 400 shi, 9 jobs, and 38 handymen.

Nine dishes of daily food ingredients (two liters and two combinations of fine rice, eight combinations of japonica rice, two liters and four combinations of noodles, one and a half liters of wine, quarters of mutton, four combinations of sauce, four combinations of vinegar, three melons, salt, soy sauce, Green onions, ginger, sunflower, leeks and the like have their own differences, wooden stalks, spring two cents; winter three cents five cents, charcoal (charcoal) three catties in spring, and five catties in winter.) About 8 pennies per month.

In addition, there is a free working lunch every day. Every year, there will be silk gifts in Yuanzheng, including some gold and silverware, miscellaneous colors, etc. Miscellaneous colors are silk fabrics of various colors. Generally, there are problems with dyeing, but in The miscellaneous colors of Tang Dynasty also include different styles of porcelain, which are also part of the miscellaneous colors.

Others, such as the wife, also have similar things, and the other is that the court will have five different sets of clothes every year, etc. All in all, it seems that there are quite a lot, but not to mention other things, it takes money to support a family Ah, these things may seem too much, but if you raise a large family, then there are really not many at all.

It can be seen from Wei Zheng's life that he is very tight.

But you can't ask all ministers to live like Wei Zheng, that's not realistic.

Li Ke must keep up with the relevant benefits and benefits. The background of the dynasty is different, and these things will naturally keep up. Otherwise, the power is too great, and some people can't bear the temptation.

If they can live comfortably without losing face, then these officials will naturally be a little stronger in resisting temptation.

Of course, it is impossible to completely avoid it. People's desires are endless, but Li Ke doesn't want to force some people with more honest backbones to take risks because they are too poor.

Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. There are good people who are forced to take risks because of family circumstances. An official is not bad at first, but the wife and the children complain every year that they are too poor and have nothing at home. He will feel guilty to some extent and will be affected, after all, they are all his relatives.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect?

So what should be done must be done. If the imperial court gives enough and still takes risks, then it is time to use a big stick. This kind of thing has been inevitable since ancient times.

The reason why he left Wei Zheng alone was actually to persuade Wei Zheng, but who knew that Wei Zheng accepted it easily and did not allow him to persuade him at all. This surprised Li Ke, and I did not brainwash Wei Zheng. Guy, why did he change here?

Could it be that this is the legendary talking to people?What the hell are you talking about?Good guy, I always thought Wei Zheng that you were an upright person!I didn't expect you to be so brainless.

Of course Wei Zheng didn't know what Li Ke was thinking. When the carriage came to pick him up, Wei Zheng got into the carriage and walked to his home. When he came out today, Li Shimin had already said that he would take a rest today.

When he got home, Wei Zheng went to see his wife first, and then handed over the box Li Ke took out.

Wei Zheng's wife is from the Pei family in Hedong, which is the Pei family of Pei Xingjian.

"What is this?" Mrs. Pei asked curiously.

"A gift I bought for you." Wei Zheng stroked his beard.

Mrs. Pei was a little stunned, and looked Wei Zheng up and down with a strange face, as if she had seen something incredible.

"What's the matter?" Wei Zheng blushed when he was seen, but he still straightened his back and asked confidently.

"It's nothing, I'm just curious, is this the sun coming up from the west, or is it the new buds on the old trees, and it's spring again?" Mrs. Pei couldn't help but tease.

"No way, it's not that I owe you all these years." Wei Zheng blushed.

"Then you didn't buy this thing, did you? You can't afford such an exquisite hairpin." Mrs. Pei glanced at him and pointed to the essence of the problem.

"You are right about that, His Royal Highness King Qin gave it to me." Wei Zheng nodded.

"His Royal Highness King Qin?" Mrs. Pei looked Wei Zheng up and down with some doubts, and then said thoughtfully: "You actually accepted the gift from King Qin? Why?"

"It's nothing, His Royal Highness King Qin said that he would give our family two shops, from the city that never sleeps in the Tang Dynasty." Wei Zheng shook his head and said, "I also took that thing, and naturally I took this hairpin too."

"Oh? Is there something going on here?" Mrs. Pei was curious.

"Actually, it's nothing. I guess His Highness wants to increase the benefits for officials. Although he was the first to tell me about this, it's definitely not just me. It's just that I don't accept gifts, so he came to me first, probably. Just trying to convince me." Wei Zheng smiled lightly.

"It is indeed necessary to increase some benefits. With your little monthly money, we can hardly afford to support our family. If I have two more children, one of them will starve to death. Look how long the houses in the mansion have been. It's been refurbished." Mrs. Pei rolled her eyes.

"I know, I know, I have wronged you." Wei Zheng smiled, but he didn't care. He knew that his wife was just nagging. Over the years, if he hadn't brought it up, his wife would never have said anything. complained.

"It's okay, as long as you know what's in your heart." Mrs. Pei glared at him, "But after so many years, you can make your own decisions about the affairs of the court. At home, I suffered a lot when I was young. Now I am old and poor, so I want these things. It's useless."

"I know, I know, it's not a big problem. His Royal Highness King Qin looks reckless, but in fact he always does things impeccably. In the future, this court will be very lively. Hey, I won't be so relaxed in the future." Wei Zheng sighed.

"Why?" Mrs. Pei was a little surprised.

"In the past, I only needed to find your majesty's omissions, but now all the courtiers, hey, I have to find trouble. These people are much more difficult to deal with than your majesty." Wei Zheng sighed.

Mrs. Pei was stunned for a moment, but she didn't say much, she just smiled: "Isn't this what you have always wanted to do? To save you from coming back every day and sighing."

Wei Zheng didn't speak anymore, this matter is easy and not easy, a bunch of old foxes, their brains hurt.

It would be great if this matter were that easy. Although His Majesty said he would discuss the question raised by His Majesty today, you said that His Majesty and His Majesty have never exchanged this question with His Majesty's calm expression. , who will believe it?Obviously, the father and son have passed the gas a long time ago.
