Chapter 1306: Kaiyuan Thirteen Years
Chapter 1306 Kaiyuan Thirteen Years
"Chu Suiliang has been fired!"
Early in the morning, Qin Lang was eating zongzi, salted duck egg yolk, and braised pork. The green zongzi leaves were wrapped with glutinous rice, and the oily red salted egg yolk was wrapped inside. It was really delicious.
Wei Chang came over with a bunch of red lychees and stepped on coconut shell slippers to tell him the latest news.
"That's all?"
"Well, demoted to the governor of the same state."
"Also, the censor platform has also been replaced. The censor doctor Sun Fujia was demoted to go out as the governor, and then the censor doctor was vacant. The emperor appointed Yan Liben as the censor Zhongcheng to take charge of the censor platform."
Qin Lang couldn't help being a little surprised. Chu Suiliang was also Li Yin's teacher. He was a direct bachelor of the Chongxian Academy back then. Before Qin Lang entered the library, he was in charge of the library for his father, so he was called the library Long, in the middle and late stages of Zhenguan, he can be regarded as deeply trusted by Li Shimin.
Qin Lang has never had a good impression of Chu Suiliang. He feels that this guy likes to engage in political speculation and has no personal position. Once seeing Li Tai being favored, he persuaded Li Shimin to appoint Li Tai as the reserve. Later, seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately voted for him. Grandson Wuji.
However, Qin Lang also admitted that Chu Suiliang's calligraphy is indeed good. Compared with Qin Lang who is known as the great calligrapher of the founding school because of the two later fonts, Shoujin and Song Ti, Chu Suiliang's calligraphy foundation is actually stronger. The level is also higher.
"Isn't it the emperor's retaliation for the resentment towards Chu Suiliang back then?"
Back then, Qin Lang asked the students of the Chongxian Hall to raise chickens, which was regarded as a life observation class. Later, Chu Suiliang killed the chickens raised by the prince and the others, and gave them to the cafeteria for extra meals.
Of course, this can only be regarded as a trivial matter.
But Chu Suiliang once persuaded Li Shimin to change Li Tai to be the prince, and this matter will definitely make Li Yin remember his hatred for a lifetime.
Wei Chang shook his head.
While peeling the lychees, he said, "I heard that the political affairs hall and the emperor have had a very tense fight recently, because the matter of Baekje and Silla was not very happy, but the emperor set up a privy council and designed the prime minister. All the prime ministers resigned en masse."
The emperor and the prime ministers had an awkward quarrel, and things became more and more rigid, especially Chu Suiliang, who even stiffened his neck to argue with the emperor.
Then the emperor didn't want to give in to compromise, but directly found an excuse to demote Sun Fujia, the doctor of the censor, and then appointed Yan Liben as the censor Zhongcheng, and asked him to take charge of the censor platform.
I don't know how Li Yin and Yan Liben, who has superb painting skills and architectural design skills, reached an agreement. Anyway, after Yan Liben entered Yushitai, he immediately initiated the impeachment against Chu Suiliang.
The great painter Yan Liben's impeachment of the great calligrapher Chu Suiliang was so sharp that even Changsun Wuji couldn't keep it, because the knife saw blood, and there was something to be impeached.
In the end, Chu Suiliang could only take the blame and resign as usual.
Then, the emperor stopped chasing and beating hard. Under his instruction, Yushitai accepted it as soon as he saw a good deal, which was considered a decent way for Chu Suiliang, so the emperor took advantage of the situation and demoted Chu Suiliang to the governor of Tongzhou.
Didn't completely tear his face off, but it was also considered to give Changsun Wuji a face.
But after this incident, Uncle Guo also knew the true character of the emperor.
The Son of Heaven who successfully held the Yushitai in his hands is very good now. Originally, the Yushitai is a very useful tool. Generally, if you want to be stable in the Zhengshitang, you must have enough connections in the Yushitai. It would be even better if he could control Yushitai.
But now the emperor personally controls the Yushitai. Although there are still roots in the Yushitai, such as Changsun Wuji and other prime ministers, the problem is that there is no censor doctor now, and Yan Liben is the prime minister of the Yushi.
After the successful impeachment of Chu Suiliang and dismissal of Prime Minister, Yan Liben immediately asked the emperor to promote two censors, who were the deputy of censor Zhongcheng.
Now, Yan Liben has a firm foothold in Yushitai.
"Li Ji went to the Privy Council, and Chu Suiliang was demoted to the governor of Tongzhou. This political affairs hall is not as good as it used to be."
Qin Lang came back to his senses and continued to eat zongzi, this time it was a ham zongzi, salty, fragrant and soft. Qin Lang prefers to eat salty and fragrant ones rather than sweet ones. Anyway, he would never eat zongzi like red bean paste, brown sugar, or red dates.
If the emperor likes to make troubles, let him make troubles, anyway, no one else can persuade him.
Eldest Sun Wuji is unable to persuade even the uncle of the Yuan Dynasty, and Qin Lang, the teacher and brother-in-law, is even less effective.
I can be regarded as having come out of that mud pit now, how can I still want to go back and make a fuss.
Develop in Luzon with peace of mind.
It is about to enter the typhoon-prone period again.
······
Twelve years later.
The spring of the thirteenth year of Kaiyuan.
Luzon, San Francisco.
During the Spring Festival, it is rare for the whole family to gather together.
It's so lively in the county prince's mansion.
Qin Lang has twenty-one sons, ninety-four grandchildren, more than a hundred daughters and grandchildren, plus dozens of wives and concubines, as well as many daughters-in-law and son-in-law. Today's county palace is full of people.
Fifty-year-old Qin Lang was sitting there, several children were chasing him, and accidentally fell down, Qin Lang picked up the boy.
"Whose family do you belong to?"
There are too many children, especially those under five or six years old, Qin Lang can't recognize many of them.
Although it is said that Qin Lang had already used the trick thirteen years ago and was determined not to have any more children, after all, he had more than fifty children. Now the eldest son Qin Jun is thirty-three years old, and the eldest grandson is seventeen years old. The boy was also a man who knew things early. He secretly had a trial with a maidservant when he was fourteen, and then gave birth to a great grandson for Qin Lang when he was fifteen.
Qin Cunxiao came over and picked up the boy, "Father, this is my little grandson."
Qin Lang pinched the boy's face, "He has a tiger head and a tiger brain, and he does look a bit like you, with some Turkic features in his brows and eyes."
Cunxiao is Qin Lang's first adoptive son. Qin Lang has adopted a total of thirteen adopted sons over the years. These adopted sons are much older than Qin Lang's sons. For example, the righteous son Cunxiao is actually older than Qin Lang He was only eight years younger, and now he is in his forties.
The face with some Turkic blood was already covered with vicissitudes, and even the hair began to appear a little frosty. Looking at it, it seemed to be more old-fashioned than Qin Lang.
"Are you still used to staying on Qianhu Island?"
"fine."
Thousand Lake Island is the second island in Luzon after Luzon Main Island. The natives call it Medan Island, which means a land with many lakes. The Qin family named it Thousand Lake Island.
After the unremitting efforts of the Qin army for more than ten years, until now, the entire Luzon Islands have basically been conquered by the Qin family. Except for some sporadic rebellious natives in the deep mountains and old forests of some islands, there has been no large-scale resistance. up.
The Qin family established strongholds in the islands, government offices, prefectures and counties, enfeoffments, immigration, establishment of schools, etc.
Qin Cunxiao is now the Commander-in-Chief of Si Yazhong, the Commander of the Infantry Division. Some time ago, there was a large-scale native rebellion on Qianhu Island. Qin Lang sent Qin Cunxiao to take charge of the chaos.
He also asked him to bring along his eldest son, Qin Yu, the eleventh son. The sixteen-year-old Qin Yu is now growing up. Over the years, he has been taking the eleventh and twenty-first sons by his side to teach him personally. Yes, you have to experience the wind and rain outside.
Letting Cunxiao take Shishilang with him is an eye-opener.
Cunxiao took Qin Yu to Qianhu Island, and it only took three months to completely put down the rebellion on the whole island. After teaching the natives a lesson, he brought back tens of thousands of slaves.
"Eleventh Lang performed very well, he was courageous and resourceful, and very humble. His adoptive father taught him a very good heir."
Qin Lang looked at Qin Yu, who was talking to his mother, Princess Taiping, in the distance. This child was tall and heroic, and he was good at riding and shooting. He also liked playing polo. No matter how you look at it, this is a very good heir.
Even his brothers recognized this brother who was born directly.
"After all, I haven't experienced real wind and rain. I have been rich and well-clothed since I was a child. Although I have studied hard, it has been smooth sailing in the end. In fact, I am still quite worried."
Just like the flowers in the greenhouse, no matter how beautiful they bloom, they are not as good as those in the wild. Even if the trees on the hillside are full of knots and grow upside down, this kind of tree is actually very strong and weather-resistant. The straight and straight fir trees may be broken in the middle by a gust of wind.
"Do you know what Eleven Lang said to me when he came back? He said that Borneo is huge, but Boni Kingdom's strength is average, and there are more places on the island, but they are actually occupied by countless natives, just like Our previous Barangay in Luzon is very loose. He suggested that Luzon send troops to Boni, first go straight to the royal city, destroy the country of Boni, and then use Boni Port as a base, and then slowly conquer the entire Borneo .”
"Cunxiao, what do you think of Eleven Lang's suggestion?"
Qin Cunxiao said slowly, "This time we fought against the Boni Kingdom. Although it was not the regular army of the Boni Kingdom, I also learned that Borneo, where the Bohai Kingdom is located, is indeed very big. It has all the islands of our Luzon plus Two and a half times bigger is more, but now there is only one Boni country on the whole island, which is slightly stronger, but it is far behind our Luzon."
"However, I think we should properly send troops to attack the Boni Kingdom as punishment for their support for the rebellion of the natives of Qianhu Island. However, this time the troops should only be sent out for appropriate punishment and deterrence. As long as the Boni Kingdom is willing to admit their mistakes, then We can withdraw our troops."
Qin Lang smiled, "Since you say Boni is not strong enough, and Borneo is so big, why don't you support the full use of troops against Boni, or even completely occupy the island?"
"Father, although we have successfully conquered this deep sea and occupied countless islands in the past ten years, we are now at our limit. We are short of population, especially because there are too few Han immigrants. Even the main island of Luzon At present, we are only developing the Luzon Plain and the Ningyuan Valley Plain relatively well. Other places still only occupy a small number of data points. The rebellion on Qianhu Island itself is caused by our lack of control. "
"Although Borneo is big, the main island of Luzon is too far away." As an excellent general, Qin Cunxiao was always clear-headed.
