He Luofu received the imperial edict and ordered him to enter the palace to meet him. He walked through the Nangong Gate and immediately felt that there was a lot of danger. On the one hand, he was guilty of being a thief, and on the other hand, he did not have much courage and courage.

Du Shesu also felt that things were a bit abnormal and wanted to attack immediately, but the palace gate was not opened. With these dozens of people trying to attack the palace, wouldn’t it be a daydream?

But if His Majesty really had something else to summon He Luoyu and refused to resist the order, wouldn't it be suspicious and revealed his plan to assassinate in vain?

Or, His Majesty Li Er got some news and didn't know whether it was true or not. If He Luo Wu was asked to enter the palace, he would ask in person. But if He Luo Wu was asked into the palace, based on his psychological quality, he would be very likely to find a flaw by His Majesty Li Er.

The sudden change suddenly put Dushesu in a dilemma. It may be that nothing happened, they were just guilty; it may also be that they had been exposed, they were just waiting to die.

But before the Dusheyuan could figure out how to deal with it, a close confidant rushed to report. After He Luofu sent away the guards to pass the orders, he actually fled with a dozen subordinates.

It's over, no matter whether it is true or false, if He Luofu runs like this, he will be completely done without asking for advice.

Dushesu stomped his feet hatefully and secretly scolded He Luofu as timid as a mouse, and it was difficult to achieve great things. He also knew that he would definitely not be able to escape. Instead of waiting for death, it would be better to escape first, and perhaps he could run to the northern grasslands and meet with his tribe before finding a solution.

Thinking of this, Dushe sent a greeting of his confidants and tribe members who participated in the assassination plan, and rode his horse northwards, and like Heluo, he fled to his life.

The planning is thorough and the preparation is confidential, but it is really surprising that it fails before it moves. But if you look into it in depth, there are also reasons for the inevitable failure.

Forty or fifty people are not core guards, even if they attack, they are just killing some guards. It is impossible to threaten the safety of His Majesty Li Er's life.

This was the case with the Jiucheng Palace Incident in history, with many guards killed and injured, but His Majesty Li Er was safe and sound. Dushe and He Luofu fled for desperate attempts, but were soon captured one by one.

By the time Xu Qilin returned to the hall, the guards were already reporting to His Majesty Li Er that He Luogu, Dushe, and some Turkic guards had fled.

This undoubtedly confirms the news that Xu Qilin reported. Even if it is not an assassination, it has an ulterior motive.

His Majesty Li Er issued an order, ordered the flying cavalry to pursue him, and sent someone to inform Chang'an and local governments to arrest fugitives and their families.

That's all? How brave are you to seek a slaughter? Why are you not at all good?

Xu Qilin was still waiting to face the confrontation with He Luoyu, and the Dushe led the fight in person, or a battle with ding dangling, the main culprit was captured in a mess and knelt down and pleaded guilty.

Well, it's good to end it calmly, so it won't be scared of my sister.

Xu Qilin sat honestly on Hu's bench, waiting for His Majesty Li Er to complete the arrangements, thinking that he would set off tomorrow and return.

After a while, the guards took the order to withdraw. His Majesty Li Er frowned slightly, lowered his head and kept silent.

Xu Qilin glanced at His Majesty Li Er, swallowed, and decided to wait a while before not disturbing Li Er's thinking about life.

Before this, His Majesty Li Er always believed that "Since ancient times, they all valued China and were inferior to barbarians, and I only loved them as one."

Judging from the favor of the surrendered generals of the Turks, he also followed this principle. The number of Turks surrendered was only more than 200,000, and those who were above the fifth rank accounted for half of the imperial court.

But with such care and favor, His Majesty Li Er's mood can be imagined.

After waiting for a long time, just as Xu Qilin was about to open his mouth, His Majesty Li Er said quietly: "The Chinese people are the root of the world. The people of the four barbarians are the same branches and leaves, disturbing their roots to thicken their branches and leaves, and seeking long-term peace. However, it has not happened. At first, he did not accept Wei Zheng's words, but he realized that the labor cost was getting worse and he had almost lost the way to long-term peace."

What did Uncle Wei say? Do you regret listening now?

Xu Qilin blinked and thought carefully. From the meaning of the words, he probably guessed that Wei Zheng was opposing the surrender of the Turks to the south of the Yellow River.

In fact, there is no absolutely correct answer in history to treat the nomadic tribes that surrender.

Placed in the mainland and managed by counties, and regarded as Chinese people; or live in old places and as vassal states, and give certain autonomy. These two methods have their pros and cons, and they can only adopt different methods at different times.

After all, the Tang Dynasty had too few populations and had built up a huge territory, but could not be resettled, and occupied it steadily and for a long time.

If there were hundreds of millions of people in the Tang Dynasty, let alone the southern and northern Mohe Rivers, they would have to think that the area was small, the population was large, and the resources were insufficient!

"Your Majesty, there is actually no foolproof way to resettle the Turkic surrenders." Xu Qilin thought for a while and said slowly: "The key is still China's strength. When the prosperity occurs, the barbarians surrender; when the decline occurs, the enemy's hearts will be repeated. The eternal principle is unchanging."

After pausing for a moment, seeing His Majesty Li Er listening carefully, Xu Qilin continued: "And the most important aspect of China's strength is the population. If there is enough population, occupy one place and guard one place, so that it can be all over the territory of our Tang Dynasty, wouldn't it be wonderful?"

His Majesty Li Er snorted and said, "Additional colleges and households is a national policy! But it is not urgent. Without the efforts and accumulation of several generations, how can you reach the sufficient population you mentioned?"

Xu Qilin smiled and said, "Actually, increasing the population of our Tang Dynasty may not necessarily rely on the Chinese people to nourish themselves, as well as foreigners."

His Majesty Li Er raised his eyebrows and was a little stunned, but he quickly smiled slightly and said, "Tell me about your idea, you must not be on the table."

Xu Qilin scratched his head and said, "Your Majesty is wrong. If the methods of the empress can be improved, they can also become the national policy of our Tang Dynasty!"

"I'll hear you, what is your national policy?" His Majesty Li Er's expression was the same with a teasing tone.

China has been a unified multi-ethnic country since ancient times. Take His Majesty Li Er for example. It would not change the fact that he has the Hu bloodline.

Therefore, whether it is the ethnic minorities in the country, such as the Turks surrendered to the public, or the unstoppable people who came to the Tang Dynasty, they can be regarded as a type of people.

In the Tang Dynasty, the saying of no nationality was that household registration was the only symbol of you as a Tang people. With household registration, according to the equal-field system, the government would share the land with you. Of course, this is just a legal provision.

Xu Qilin's idea was to establish a permanent residence permit and the provisions of joining the nationality of the Tang Dynasty, which was equivalent to the green card and nationality of later generations.

The reason why I had this idea was that Xu Qilin laid the foundation for future industrial production. To put it bluntly, it was to solve the problem of insufficient labor.

In the Tang Dynasty, it was not easy for you to recruit workers. How many craftsmen without farmland, that is, migrant workers, can you have? You dare to use generous treatment such as high salary to recruit farmers. The hat of luring farmers to abandon farming can crush you to death.

The weaving workshop is temporarily supported by slaves from the Yeting Palace, but it is like mining, steelmaking and casting, and male workers have to be used.

Of course, the labor gap can be supplemented by the prisoners in the Tang Dynasty's foreign war. However, exhaustion is not conducive to sustainable development and has no effect on increasing the population.

"If the prisoners are caught, they will do a few years of work first, which is called labor reform." Xu Qilin took a sip of tea and continued: "Tell them the policies of the Tang Dynasty. If they do well in the past few years and perform well, they will give them freedom and permanent residence permits..."

If you do this, the prisoners have hope. Few people resist and cause trouble and their enthusiasm for work can improve. After a few years of heavy work, they will be unable to die. They will probably lose their wildness and tame their temperament.

If you have a permanent residence permit and are willing to continue working, you will be rewarded and you can also find a job by yourself and become a free and flexible migrant worker.

This is not the end. Having a permanent residence permit does not mean that you are a Tangren, you are so beautiful!

You still have to live in the Tang Dynasty for three or five years without committing any crimes and reaching a certain level of Chinese, so that you can take an oath, express your love for the Tang Dynasty, support the laws of the Tang Dynasty, and be willing to contribute to the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. Only then can you become a nationality of the Tang Dynasty and become a Tang Dynasty person.

For those bad guys, you can naturally formulate another set of inspection rules.

For example, how many years of legal operation, how many years of tax payment, what outstanding contributions have been made to the Tang Dynasty, etc. Then, it is still the process of permanent residence permit to join the nationality.

"These foreigners who have joined the nationality of the Tang Dynasty may imitate the Qin and Han dynasties and are classified as "city registration" to distinguish them from the "household registration."

Xu Qilin finally made a summary, "I think it is not too difficult to assimilate the naturalized people to become the people of the Tang Dynasty with the profound cultural heritage of China, with my unhappy national strength, and with Your Majesty's courage to embrace all rivers."

Although there are pros and cons to immigrate to a country, it depends on how to operate it to make the immigrants feel a sense of identity. In thousands of years of Chinese history, there are countless nations that have been assimilated.

His Majesty Li Er drooped his eyelids and fell into long thoughts.

You should know that as a powerful Central Plains dynasty, there was no "respecting foreign countries and fawning on foreign countries". On the contrary, discrimination against the benevolent people of the country was determined by law.

We are not allowed to wear Tang people's clothes, just wear yours, and you can tell at a glance that we are not our Tang people; we are not allowed to marry our women, no matter how rich they are, they are not allowed.

The surrounding tribes including Tuyuhun, Tubo, Xueyantuo, and the wicked people who came to the Tang Dynasty to stay forever, all regarded marrying women from the Tang Dynasty as a proud thing.

But you can only yearn for it, don’t think about using marrying us Tang women to change the genes of your ethnic groups. But we Tang people can marry the evil people, so they are so domineering.

We are not allowed to buy houses and land in our Tang Dynasty. It is okay to do business or make money, but all your property after your death cannot be taken out of the Tang Dynasty and must be kept on our Tang Dynasty territory.

But it is so discriminatory and so domineering that those bad guys are reluctant to leave when they come, and they are lying on their faces.

Therefore, His Majesty Li Er was a little hesitant and hesitant about the immigration and naturalization of Weak Guoren. However, he did not have much opinion on the captives of the surrounding tribes, namely the barbarians.

As His Majesty Li Er said, "Since ancient times, they have always valued China and were inferior to barbarians, and I love them only as one." He is still relatively tolerant of foreign generals and can also use them. People like Ashinasheer, Heichi Changzhi and others all ranked high-ranking officials and showed their titles because of their merits.

So - After thinking deeply, His Majesty Li Er felt that the specific regulations could be formulated and the trial was started with the prisoners to see how the results were.

Thinking of this, His Majesty Li Er raised his head and smiled and said to Xu Qilin, "Does the servants in the Yeting Palace feel pitiful and want to help them find a way out?"

Xu Qilin did not hide it and said, "Your Majesty is wise. It is precisely because I am inspired by them and came up with these ghost ways. Your Majesty is magnanimous and kind, so I will give them a chance to reform and become a new person!"

This is said from the heart. As the thinking of later generations, Xu Qilin really couldn't stand the law of "slaves and animals", and he didn't like the ancient indiscriminateness.

But if you want to say something about reforming and becoming a new person, you will choose beautiful words for His Majesty Li Er to listen to. What crimes do women and children have infringed?

His Majesty Li Er hummed and said in a deep voice: "The state has its own national laws, but you are still too soft-hearted."

Is your heart too soft?! Is that true? In fact, it should be said that it is more humane, so high-end, although I don’t want to be a Holy Mother.

Seeing Xu Qilin bowing his head and agreeing, His Majesty Li Er stopped talking in depth and said in a deep voice: "Let's first set the naturalization regulations for the prisoners and slaves. I will let the ministers discuss it to see if it is feasible."

Come on a little by little, Xu Qilin bowed and said, "I thank Your Majesty for your kindness on behalf of those servants."

His Majesty Li Er raised his eyebrows and was happy at the new name, but he scolded with a stern face: "Don't be that flattering minister."

Xu Qilin smiled and said, "If you can make Your Majesty happy and benefit the country and the people, what's the harm in being a slander?"

His Majesty Li Er rolled his eyes, but he couldn't help laughing and said, "You lazy boy, let's go with the way! When will the rules be decided and when will you go back to Chang'an?"

Ah—Xu Qilin was stunned and stood up to argue and excuse him. His Majesty Li Er waved his hand, "Get back, the guards will arrange for you to rest. The rooster crows tomorrow and will go to Jiucheng Palace."

Xu Qilin bowed helplessly and said, "I'm going to bed first." Maybe His Majesty Li Er will change his mind tomorrow!

………………………….

Chang'an, the Wei Palace.

"Your Highness, Xu Kucheng has not returned to the mansion yet." The manager reported to Li Tai with some anxiety: "The people in the Xu Mansion only know that he is in a hurry to leave the city and do not know what is going on."

Li Sipang waved his hand and said, "Let's go tomorrow!"

"Yes!" The manager bowed and left.

Where did Xu Qilin go? Li Tai frowned, picked up the book from the desk, and read it absent-mindedly.

The footsteps sounded from afar and the curtain was lifted. Princess Yan Wan walked in slowly, with a maid holding tea and snacks behind her.
