  Chapter 328 It's over

  The food that Qin Lang's family grows this autumn is mainly soybeans, which are a good source of feed for the farm and can also be used to extract oil. With the popularity of cooking, the demand for vegetable oil has also increased greatly.

  Early frost has little effect on the Qin family's autumn grain, and soybeans are much better than wheat millet.

  But Qin Lang couldn't just stare at his family's one-acre three-point land.

He hurried back to Chang'an on purpose, first went to meet Ma Zhou, borrowed some data from the Transshipment Department from him, then went to the Zhenfu Department, sent some river fresh food to Zhang Liang, and asked him about the Turkic Grassland and the northern border. weather conditions.

   Returning to Duke Yi's mansion in Pingkangfang, Qin Lang already had a serious expression.

   It took three days for Qin Lang to write a secret document, explaining what was happening in the north and reminding the emperor to pay attention to it.

This secret folding system was originally used by Qin Lang in his own home. The family business of the Duke of Yi was expanding, the family was big, the business was large, there were many people, there were many industries, and there were many people. The Qin family lacks background, and it must be inferior to the five surnames and seven families in terms of management.

Although Qin Lang has arranged management personnel in each property, in order to avoid the situation of management corruption that is prone to occur in many upstart families, Qin Lang, in addition to the normal personnel management arrangement on the surface, also from Qin Lang. In and out of the house, in the manor workshop, etc., more than a hundred people were carefully selected, and these people were asked to report to him secretly.

  Some of these people are in charge, some are shopkeepers, but some are just bosses or family generals, etc., not all of them are top leaders. These people are equivalent to the secret supervisors placed by Qin Lang. While doing their own jobs well, they also have to report to Qin Lang on matters that they manage or do not manage. As long as they are some important things, they can report to Qin Lang.

   This report does not need to go through the management office headed by the chief steward in Duke Yi's mansion.

The secret report was submitted directly to Qin Lang's case without going through the eight stewards, and Qin Lang personally read or even replied. The concealment of the stewards of the manor and workshop below.

  For this secret report, Qin Lang only needs two requirements, one is confidentiality, the content of the secret report cannot be revealed, even the identity of the secret report is kept secret, and the other is truthfulness. Regardless of whether the report is a matter within the duty or outside the duty, it must be true. Of course, sometimes some important information is also allowed to be reported by hearsay.

   This secret report method is actually Qin Lang’s reference to the secret seal system of Emperor Kangxi and Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty.

  You should know that from the Qin and Han Dynasties to the Song and Ming Dynasties, officials at all levels had a set of detailed rules and regulations for their memorials. So in fact, the emperor had seen the memorial, but the imperial court had already known about it.

When he arrived in Kangxi, he came up with a secret system, selected more than 100 internal and external officials at all levels, so that they could directly report to the emperor in secret, without anyone's hand, and the emperor read the reply himself, which made the subordinates It is impossible to hide from the emperor, especially the prime ministers and ministers in the court.

When it came to Emperor Yongzheng, he was the most diligent emperor, and he used the secret folding system to the extreme. There were more than 1,000 courtiers who were qualified for secret memorials. Pretty impressive.

  Qin Lang thinks this method is actually a good one.

   After all, as a leader, what you need most is to grasp the first-hand truth, and what you fear most is being deceived.

  For an upstart family like the Duke of Yi's, the expansion is rapid, and the management and manpower are also complicated. In this regard, the management level is more considered.

  The secret report system cited by Qin Lang worked well. After seeing it, Chengqian told Empress Changsun, and Changsun told Li Shimin, so Li Shimin also thought this method was very good.

  Li Shimin chatted with Qin Lang very brazenly, and then he also started the secret book system.

As soon as the emperor came up, he granted many ministers the qualifications of secret folding. , All of a sudden, more than 300 people were given this qualification.

  Originally, Li Shimin even wanted to give all the governors of the state the secret qualification, but later he considered that he might not be able to handle it, so he temporarily gave up.

  Since adopting this secret book system, Li Shimin likes it very much, and feels that his control over the world has been strengthened a lot.

  Cooperating with the supervision of the Zhenfu Division Baiqi Division Dianqian Division, the supervision of Yushitai, and the provincial admonition officials under his door, Li Shimin felt that he knew everything, and no one could deceive him.

  Qin Lang's secret book was presented at the Yintai Gate, and immediately the **** of the Ministry of Internal Affairs rushed the book with a special label to the emperor's case.

   "Qin Lang's book? Are you still using the red book?"

   Li Shimin got serious, red represents urgency, Qin Lang can often be summoned by the emperor, so the use of red secret fold must be an urgent report.

   Immediately open and read.

   After a long time, Li Shimin frowned and thought.

   Not reporting treason, but also impeaching important officials, but it was about the early frost disaster in the north, which surprised the emperor, but after reading it, he was surprised by Qin Lang's conclusion with numbers in the secret booklet.

Previously, Li Shimin also received reports from Qin Qiong, Li Ji, Zhang Liang and many other officials, talking about the status quo of the Turks in the north. Li also had conflicts with Xieli, and Mobei Tiele had conflicts with the Turkic nobles, but this has always been the case on the grasslands, and these are nothing new.

  As long as the Turkic people don't gather tribes and come south, the court will be happy to watch them fight. Li Shimin had a feeling of gloating before, and he often felt good when he saw these memorials.

  But now Qin Lang said that he was too happy?

   also said that a major crisis is already brewing and is likely to erupt.

If someone told him this, Li Shimin would probably not believe it, but it was Qin Lang who said this, so Li Shimin had to be a little more careful, because Qin Lang seldom targeted without reason, and his words were always accompanied by detailed data evidence of.

  What worries Li Shimin even more is that Qin Lang deduces that the early frost that originated in the grassland is coming to the south, which will endanger this year's autumn harvest. This year's northern grain production may decrease, and this winter may be colder, with heavy snowstorms.

  Why is my world always so full of disasters?

  Just experienced a summer harvest, why is there another disaster in autumn?

  There will be drought and frost in autumn, and heavy snow in winter.

   This made Li Shimin, who thought he had come out of the chaotic predicament of Wu Denian, worried.

   Turkic people are afraid of snow disasters, in fact, the Central Plains are also afraid of snow disasters.

He, Li Shimin, is not a charcoal burner. He is worried about the cheapness of the charcoal and wishes that the weather will be cold. He is a charcoal seller. Many people suffer from the cold. A heavy snow may take hundreds of thousands of people's lives.

  Those simple thatched huts can withstand the attack of snow disasters.

   "A court meeting is held in the Linhu Hall by the pool of the South China Sea."

  Lake Hall.

  On the fourth day of June last year, Li Shimin took command here, and You Li Yuansha was built.

  Because it is a court meeting, there are not so many courtesy of the court meeting. The emperor is also good to the ministers. Everyone has a few tables, tea and snacks, which is like a tea party.

   But Qin Lang sat there on his knees, but he still prefers the furniture he imitated the Ming-style design and asked the carpenters to make. Wouldn't it be nice to sit in the armchair with the armrests attached to the back? At least the feet are very relaxed!

It’s just that Tang people like to sit upright, that is, sitting on the ground, kneeling on their feet, sitting with their feet hanging down like Qin Lang usually does at home. This is called Hu Si by Tang people. Never allowed to appear.

  Qin Lang is usually casual at home, and when there are guests, he usually has to sit on the floor or use a couch.

On the tables made of rosewood, there are exquisite white porcelain tea sets, the best round tea, and a cake is worth two taels of gold. In the small porcelain plates next to it, there are green salt, rock sugar, green onion, ginger, jujube, orange peel and dogwood. Cinnamon and more.

"Your Majesty, I think that I can take advantage of the internal conflicts in Turkic to use a strategy of alienation. The imperial court can send envoys to confer Yushe as a small khan and Tuli as a great khan, so that they can share the power of Xieli. Khan number, bestow flags and drums, and even choose the palace to give the princess number to promise marriage!"

  Military Minister Hou Junji spoke very positively.

  Qin Lang sat there pouring tea into the small charcoal stove, very attentive.

  Punishment Minister Li Jing was more active.

"Your Majesty, please lead the army out of Yanmen Pass, march into Dingxiang, and recover Yunzhong! Your Majesty, if you can take advantage of this opportunity and make a surprise attack, you can completely retake the outer Great Wall pass, and Dingxiang and Mayi between the inner and outer Great Walls in Hedong can be recovered. Taiyuan is also stable because of this.”

   "I only need 20,000 elite soldiers!"

  Li Jing is very confident. This confidence stems from the fact that he once served as a magistrate in Mayi, and guarded Mayi for a long time at the end of the Sui Dynasty. He is quite familiar with the land of Daibei.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Mayi County outside the Yanmen Pass fell under the control of the Turks. After Liu Wuzhou was defeated by the Tang Army, his confidant Yuan Junzhang and others went north to the Turks, so the land of Daibei was nominally assigned to the Queen of the Sui Dynasty. Yang Zhengdao is actually controlled by the Turks.

  Since Li Jing returned to the court, he first served as the general of the left guard, and now he is also the secretary of the Ministry of punishment. He was very frustrated and wanted to go out to fight.

  It's a pity that as soon as Li Jing finished speaking, Secretary Supervisor Wei Zheng mercilessly began to criticize Li Jing and Hou Junji for being aggressive, and the saliva was directly sprayed into Li Jing's teacup.

   "Xuan Ling, what do you think?"

  The emperor ignored Wei Zheng and asked Fang Xuanling directly.

   "Shuofang and Liang Shi are still alive, and there are Yuan Junzhang and Yang Zhengdao in Daibei. If it is true that Duke Yi speculates that there will be disasters this winter, then it is not suitable to fight against the Turks."

  As Zuo Pushe, the head of all the officials, Fang Xuanling must consider the overall situation.
