Qin Lang is still very good at his aide.

Since a few years ago, Qin Lang has set a rule that he would have lunch with a mug guest every day. During the meal, the mug guest could ask him for questions, and Qin Lang would answer everything.

This is similar to Buffett's lunch, but there is no extra charge.

Everyone has a chance. When it’s their turn, they can ask themselves what they want, either to ask poetry and literature, or to explore classics, or to talk about the way to govern the country or to manage wealth.

Qin Lang would answer everything, give many valuable experiences and provide useful suggestions.

Over the past few years, Mr. Wei’s lunch was very popular among Mukes. Everyone cherishes this rare opportunity and prepares their own problems in advance.

After leaving Lan Pass, passing Wu Pass, he rode along Danshui.

The Danjiang River water is clear and green, and the river banks are lush and green, as if walking in a fairyland. Sometimes you even mistakenly think that the boat is walking in the sky because the water is too clear and you can't even feel it.

On the deck, bamboo charcoal burned in the small red mud charcoal stove, and orange charcoal fire simmered the Danjiang fish in the casserole.

Two sticky mouths, slightly raised mouths, the fish body is slender and wider than three fingers, but it is extremely tender and delicious.

Stew slowly over low heat, giving off an attractive fragrance.

A glass of old winter wine is even more comfortable.

"The saint issued an edict to let the crown prince supervise the state and be responsible for military and national affairs, and to completely let the capital of the pass beside the capital to practice the prince."

The one who accompanied Qin Lang for lunch today was Liu Rengui.

This person is ten years older than Qin Lang, but his status is vastly different. Liu Rengui was from a poor family since he was young, but he liked to study, which is very similar to Ma Zhou.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and Liu Rengui could not concentrate on studying. Whenever he worked, he would stretch out his fingers to write and stroke in the air or on the ground to review his homework. He just farmed and read while reading. Liu Rengui also learned his own skills and was famous in the village at that time for his extensive knowledge.

At the beginning of martial arts, Ren Gui, who was appointed as the ambassador of Henan Province, drafted a memorial to discuss state affairs. At that time, Liu Rengui, who was just a minor official at the time, saw the draft and revised a few sentences for him. After reading it, Ren Gui was very impressed, so Chi Li appointed him as the army in Xizhou.

Yiyue became an official.

Later, when the Turkic Jie Li invaded Chang'an, Ren Gui, as the commander-in-chief of the king, sent Liu Rengui to Li Jijun to contact him. Later, he was ordered by Li Ji to report military information. When facing the inquiries of the emperor and the prime ministers in the hall, he could also calmly deal with it and talk about it.

This made Li Shimin very satisfied and specially appointed him as the lieutenant of Chencang County.

At that time, there was a military office in Chencang County. The Zhechong Commander Lu Ning was arrogant and violated the law. No one in the previous Chencang County officials could stop him. After Liu Rengui took office, he directly warned him not to commit any more. However, Lu Ning was still fierce and arrogant, so Liu Rengui beat him to death with a torture stick.

Li Shimin was furious when he heard the news. A county lieutenant actually killed my Zhechong Duwei. It was outrageous. He sent someone to arrest Liu Rengui into Beijing and questioned him in person. However, Liu Rengui said that Lu Ning repeatedly violated the national law and insulted the county lieutenant, so he rectified the law.

Li Shimin lamented that this guy was in a tough and Qin Lang came forward to defend Liu Rengui at that time, saying that he was strong and upright, not only could he not be punished, but he also received commendation, as a model.

So Li Shimin promoted him to Xianyang County Magistrate.

When Qin Lang came forward to defend him, he also remembered that Liu Rengui seemed very good in history. In the war to destroy Goguryeo Baekje during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of Tang, he led the Tang army to defeat the Japanese fleet, and promoted his national prestige, and later became the prime minister.

Liu Rengui later served as the magistrate of Xianyang County, but seemed to have been forgotten. Perhaps because he had beaten the lieutenant Zhechong to death and committed a taboo in the officialdom, his colleagues also alienated him, and even his superiors intended to neglect him.

In this way, he stayed at the position of Xianyang County Magistrate for many years and had no room to move, and even had poor evaluations in annual assessments.

When Qin Lang returned to Chang'an this time, he saw the manager of the Qin family village in Xianyang, he heard them say that the Xianyang county magistrate was a good official and did a lot of practical things, but he was never promoted because of offending others. When he heard that it was Liu Rengui.

So Qin Lang specially summoned him to Chang'an, had a meal and chatted, and felt that although Liu Rengui had been sitting on the bench in Xianyang for several years, he still maintained a passion for doing things and did not degenerate and give up.

He went south again and specially requested the emperor to recommend Liu Rengui as the chief secretary of the Nine Palaces' Strategic Headquarters.

The position of secretary is similar to joining the military office, and they are all confidential secretaries.

Qin Lang's rank of the governor of the Nine Palaces of Lingnan was a temporary assignment, not a formal official position, so there was no complete subordinate agency staff, etc. This was different from the Guangzhou Grand Governor's Office. The Grand Governor was a formal official position in the court, with the Grand Governor's Office, and had a chief minister, Sima, a record officer, a record officer, a record officer, a record officer, a military officer, and a military officer, all of which were civil servants.

However, the Strategic Envoy is just a job, so his subordinates and staff have been transferred and borrowed from various places, or Qin Lang recruited and recommended, etc. The staff are not fixed and there is no corresponding official rank.

Generally, there is an official rank before the secondment, but it is still the original official rank.

The main positions of the shogunate include marching Sima, chief secretary, judge, military officer, staff officer, etc.

The position of secretary is a secretary who is responsible for confidentiality. It is very important and must be a person who is deeply trusted and trusted by the management.

Qin Lang directly asked Liu Rengui to be the chief secretary of the Lingnan Nine Palaces. It can be said that he really wanted to employ people. Liu Rengui was also very surprised and was once extremely grateful.

So he accepted the order without hesitation, bid farewell to the group of colleagues in Xianyang County who were always alienated from him, packed his luggage and went to Chang'an to follow Qin Lang south.

When he learned that Liu Rengui was personally recruited by Duke Wei to be the chief secretary of the Nine Palaces of Lingnan, his colleagues were both surprised and regretful. It seemed that Liu Rengui was about to make a fortune.

So they prepared generous gifts and came to give them to each other. However, Liu Rengui had a cold face and confiscated the gifts and left, leaving a group of people looking at each other in front of each other, secretly calling the man named Liu who was really lucky to be favored by Duke Wei.

He also secretly cursed this guy for offending Duke Wei and losing his future.

However, after Liu Rengui packed his luggage and went to Qin Lang to report, he went south all the way, which was very appreciated by Qin Lang. This was not only because he knew that Liu Rengui would defeat the Japanese army in the future and promote Tang Wei, but he would also be the prime minister in the future, but Liu Rengui had a temper, but also had more abilities.

Qin Lang likes to use talented people.

"Just received a letter from Chang'an, the crown prince issued a sanction of the prisoners, and saved people to the Tao, thinking that the queen would pray for blessings. First, he summoned three thousand people to become monks, and then he used the treasury in the Eastern Palace to build Xihuaguan and Puguang Temple."

"Then Immediately ordered the rebuilding of 398 abandoned temples in Guanzhong to pray for the queen."

"The third prince order was to rebuild Yanxing Temple in Chang'an and create all the sutras."

Qin Lang was holding the fresh and tender fish in the casserole, but he was a little absent-minded and could not know the taste.

To suppress Buddhism and eliminate Taoism was the basic national policy established at the beginning of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty. The purpose was to crack down on the temple economy and prevent the disorderly expansion of Buddhism and Taoism, especially those who commit fraud and chaos under the name of Taoism.

The action that was in the first place swept across the country, and hundreds of thousands of Buddhist and Taoist nuns ordered to return to secular life, tens of millions of acres of land cleaned up by the court, and after a round of rectification, all Buddhist and Taoist were included under the strict supervision of the court, and the ordination of monks and other monks were strictly managed.

A large number of temples and Taoist temples were abolished, and a large number of young monks and Taoists returned to secular life. Basically, only one temple was retained in a county. Even Chang'an did not retain a few temples. It was strictly prohibited to establish temples and Taoist temples in urban yards. It had to be established in mountains and forests far away from urban and rural areas. It was even more strictly prohibited to enter and exit the market at will, and they were not allowed to participate in industrial and commercial economic activities. In the past, lending, mortgage, fundraising, etc. were not allowed.

Even the power to be exempted from taxes is gone. You have to farm by yourself and pay taxes to serve.

It can be said that this movement that year also made great contributions to the takeoff of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, releasing a large number of young and strong laborers, and reclaiming a large amount of land economy, etc., not to mention ideas, people's hearts, etc.

In recent years, this system has been strictly abide by and operated.

But now Li Shimin has just gone to Luoyang and Chengqian is staying in Chang'an. He presided over the Chang'an Travel Platform. These things he did are either other things or these things, which have to be said to be disappointing.

This action was quite big. First, I saved three thousand people and rebuilt two temples. Then I had to rebuilt 398 abandoned temples. I also had to start carving and translating Buddhist scriptures, and printing a large number of Buddhist scriptures in the woodblock.

These behaviors seem to express filial piety and pray for the queen, but they run contrary to the basic national policies formulated since the Zhenguan of the Tang Dynasty.

Lao Tzu forbids and suppresses Taoism and strictly controls religion.

But your son is here to rebuild a deserted temple, save people and print scriptures in large quantities. Is this a sign of fiction?

Kong Anguo, a great scholar in the Western Han Dynasty, said: "If the father is there, the son cannot be dedicated, so he only observes his ambitions. If the father has not changed his behavior, he can be called filial piety. If the son is there, he will be sad and admire him. If the father is there, there is nothing to change his way of the father.

This means that when a father is alive, the son is not allowed to be self-centered and obey his father. When the father is gone, he has to respect the gods and dare not cross it. The rules set by his father must not be changed at will. This is filial piety.

The way of changing one's father is the greatest good that Kong Anguo said, otherwise it would be bad and unfilial.

Although Qin Lang did not agree with this statement, after all, his father’s rules may not be all right. The rules of the ancestors must be innovative and adapted to the times.

But now when Cheng Qian was still alive, he began to change his father's rules, and even the basic national policy was changed. This is just a mess.

In order to strictly limit the number of monks and Taoists, the court set up extremely strict conditions for orphaning. Now, in the imperial examination, the Ming Buddha and Ming Dao have newly established two subjects in the imperial examination, to assess those who want to be orphaned. Each temple can only have one less person, and one more person will be added. It must pass many assessments. After the assessment, you have to pay a large sum of tutors, which are all to limit the expansion of monks and Taoists.

The number of monks in the entire Tang Dynasty is limited to 8,000, with 3,000 nuns and 5,000 lords.

The total number of the country is only 16,000.

Now that he inherits the Crown Prince Order, he has to directly ordain three thousand people into the Tao without evaluating, quotas, or paying huge quotas.

Hundreds of abandoned temples were also needed to rebuild and countless scriptures were printed.

This kind of behavior is said to be praying for the mother and showing filial piety, but it is not filial to change the father's way.

"The saints built Chang'an Xingtai, imitating the imperial court's three provinces and six departments. They all retained a set of institutions in Chang'an and selected a group of famous elders to help. But why did they still ask the prince to issue such a prince order?"

"Will the son change his father's way to ruin his life?"

Liu Rengui couldn't help but shake his head.

He also knew that Qin Lang was the core of the Iron Prince and even one of the leaders, and the position of the prince was closely related to Qin Lang.

"It seems that I underestimated this highness too. The saint went to Luoyang for the first time. His back foot was in Chang'an. Gao Shilian, Yu Wenshiji, Yang Gongren, Xiao Yu, Li Jing, and Wang Gui, so many senior officials, they could not even control a prince."

"What should I do now?" Liu Rengui asked Qin Lang, "You can't let the trouble continue, right?"

Qin Lang put down his chopsticks, picked up his glass and drank a warm winter wine.

"Trouble it, let him do it and see how long he can do it."

Qin Lang couldn't say whether the prince's behavior was ignorant and stupid, or intentional, but no matter what, he successfully attracted the emperor's attention and would inevitably cause the emperor's anger and dissatisfaction.

Next, it depends on how the two of them are fighting each other, but no matter what, Cheng Qian is asking for trouble.

"Do you want your subordinates to write a letter to the crown prince to advise him?"

Qin Lang shook his head.

"Now he doesn't take it seriously, but it's annoying."

"Are you just sitting there and ignoring it?"

Liu Rengui’s meaning is that this is not a way to be a minister. If you are wrong, you have to advise and advise.

"I think His Royal Highness has been suppressed for too long in the past few years. Now that he becomes stubborn, he can't get out of the stubbornness for a while. In fact, it's like a child's mess. At this time, you insist on talking to him about life philosophy, sages, etc., but it's actually useless at all. It's better to let him vent his anger first, wait for his a little calmer, and then talk to him well. At this time, maybe you can listen to it."

"Of course, the Crown Prince is noble. We are subordinates, and it is hard to say anything too much. But if we anger the saint, the saint will not talk to him. Then the saint will also start anger. But there is no Crown Prince. It is only natural for me to scold my son, so we don't have to worry about it for now."

Liu Rengui didn't expect Qin Lang to say such words.

"Don't Xuan Xiang worry that the prince will anger the saint or even endanger the status of the crown prince?"

"Why is it so serious? Whose child hasn't been wronged a few times? But whoever child has been wronged will be beaten to death or even driven out of the house whenever he sees him?"

"Come on, let's continue drinking and eating fish."

Liu Rengui couldn't help but admire Qin Lang even more. This concentration is really something that ordinary people can do.
