Bianliang City has been very lively in recent months. The emperor's concubines are getting married one after another, and every time, the whole city pays attention and laughs together.
When they reached the right age, the emperors Chongde, Chengde, Xunde, Huifu, Xiande and others got married one after another, and they all married into the same house.
Needless to say, it is known that the person who married them was the Prime Minister of the dynasty, the King of Wei.
The Prime Minister is very generous, and every time he holds a banquet, it fills the entire street.
All the people in Bianliang City, whether they are traders or servants, just come to say congratulations, and they can bring their whole family to the banquet to have a full meal.
Before leaving, you can also receive a box of candy to take home.
Naturally, Li Yunze would not be like Cai Jing, who had more than a hundred chefs in the kitchen.
When he holds banquets, he orders banquets from major restaurants, which is simple and convenient and does not require washing dishes.
The emperors and concubines are not dissatisfied with marrying into the Prime Minister's Palace. Not to mention that Li Yunze is already the most powerful person in the world at this time, and everyone believes that he will give in sooner or later. It is just that many sisters can live together. , this is enough to make the girls happy
Encouraged.
There was no video network or efficient transportation system these days.
Even if they are in the same city, it is not easy to meet them.
How wonderful it is now that everyone lives in the same courtyard.
And there is no telling that I will return to the palace where I have lived since I was a child.
As for Li Yunze himself, in addition to being stricter on time management, his need for protein supplements has increased again.
While he was busy marrying the emperor's concubine and improving their miserable fate, Li Yunze was still busy making a better life for the common people of the Song Dynasty.
"Forcibly occupying the people's newly allocated land, you have to come here to ask me how to deal with this kind of thing?"
In the study, Li Yunze raised the document in his hand, "Who recommended Xiangzhou Zhizhou?"
It was Liang Zhongshu who recommended Xiangzhou to be the governor, and he took the initiative to leave this matter to Li Yunze for decision-making.
"Prime Minister." Liang Zhongshu stood up and saluted and said, "It's not that the new prime minister and magistrate are unwilling to do things, but that the people who occupy the land have extraordinary origins..."
Today was a good day for Li Yunze to marry Zhao Qiaoyun, the concubine of Xian De Emperor. He was even wearing a bright red wedding dress.
After hearing Liang Zhongshu's words, Li Yunze became increasingly impatient, "What's the origin? Is the Jade Emperor's dog a reincarnation of an eagle like Buddha?"
"Prime Minister, that is the Han family in Xiangzhou." Liang Zhongshu was panicked on the surface, but secretly he was happy to give the Han family eye drops. "The family has deep roots. For generations, people have been serving as officials and marrying into the official family. They are the best in the world." family. They want to occupy the land, how dare the little magistrate
stop. "
"Ha." Li Yunze, who knew Liang Zhongshu's little thoughts, smiled faintly, "The Han family? How many divisions does his family have? Do they have 100,000 cavalry?"
Liang Zhongshu also smiled, "The Han family does have some influence in the military, but that is all in the past. There are always thousands of people in the family, including tenants, caretakers, villagers, and so on."
Li Yunze stopped talking nonsense and simply stood up and walked out the door, "Order Suochao to lead two thousand troops to Xiangzhou and pacify the Han family who disobeyed the imperial edict!"
Before Liang Zhongshu was overjoyed, Li Yunze who walked to the door said another sentence: "The corpse of the governor of Xiangzhou is a vegetarian. He will be dismissed and investigated and will never be used!"
Liang Zhongshu immediately grimaced.
Although the Han family was moved, he lost one of his generals.
I originally planned to put him somewhere for some training and then transfer him back to the court to serve as an arm...
"I have no choice but to arrange for a confidant to go to Zhizhou. This credit cannot be let go."
Liang Zhongshu, who had made arrangements, also hurried out to attend another wedding to marry the emperor.
No matter how many girls there are in the Prime Minister's Palace, Zhao Fujin's status is absolutely unshakable.
Even her sister, Zhao Qiaoyun, Emperor Xiande's concubine, endured the discomfort and came to salute the fifth sister with her legs crooked early the next morning.
"We are all sisters, there is no need for this." Zhao Fujin naturally helped her up and sat together holding hands to comfort her.
After some small talk, Zhao Qiaoyun's shyness and panic were relieved, Zhao Fujin asked in a low voice, "Have you drunk the Bizi soup?"
The young Zhao Qiaoyun blushed shyly and nodded timidly.
After a moment, he expressed his position very sincerely and said, "Fifth sister, don't worry. None of our sisters will have children before you."
After hearing this, Zhao Fujin couldn't laugh or cry, "What do you think of me? It has nothing to do with me. This is the request of the Prime Minister."
Zhao Qiaoyun's pretty face was full of confusion: "Why is this? Why does the Prime Minister not want an heir?"
"He said that he would not consider his own affairs until the world is completely stable. Don't worry about it. Just listen to the Prime Minister."
The Plum Blossom Han family is just a microcosm of the many aristocratic families in the Song Dynasty that have re-emerged in their prototypes. In addition to their family, there are also the Zhong family, Zhe family and Yao family in Guanzhong, plus the Lu family of the fifth and third generation in the west of Beijing.
The Zhong family and the Yao family have been dismantled, and Li Yunze will further dismantle them next.
The Zhe family is a bit special. Their influence in Fuzhou is too deep, and it will take time to dismantle it step by step.
As for the Lu family, it would be much easier, just force them to turn to study.
What really troubled Li Yunze was Duke Yan.
It is said that a gentleman can only be killed in five generations. How many generations has it been like for Yan Shenggong?
Their influence among scholars is too great, and the most important thing is that the northern savages have not yet gone south, and they have not even had time to go to the table to persuade them to come in. The excuse is not easy to find.
But it doesn't matter, Li Yunze didn't let him go in other parallel worlds, and he wouldn't let him go here either.
Zhu Gui and others, who were born in the west of Beijing, were assigned to handle matters. It was thought that it would not take long to recover the hundreds of thousands of acres of farmland owned by Duke Yansheng.
After the Western Expedition begins, Li Yunze plans to send them all to the far west, so that he can teach the natives there to be gentlemen who use words but do not use hands.
Expand canals, dredge rivers, repair roads, clear out bandits and strongmen, abolish gate taxes at various checkpoints, etc.
These infrastructure constructions will make the Song Dynasty’s business more prosperous.
The large number of high-yielding crop seeds he brought and the soil fertilizer factories built in various places can greatly increase farmers' income, making the farmers who make up the majority of the population no longer so poor, and at least they can have enough food and clothing.
While maintaining internal governance, the focus on the north has not relaxed.
As the Jin army continues to move south, the battle between Liao and Jin is about to enter its final stage.
Li Yunze was also making preparations here. A large amount of military supplies were sent to various places in Hebei for storage, and the training and dispatching of the military were carried out in an orderly manner.
When the time is right, troops will be sent to recapture the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun.
The prosperous Song Dynasty will never be beaten to collapse by the remnants of the Liao Kingdom as it was in history, and will eventually have to spend money to redeem it.
And Zhao Ji, who caused such a humiliating incident, is now even more miserable.
On this day, when Li Yunze reported state affairs to Empress Dowager Zheng in the palace, the Empress Dowager, whose hairpin was scattered, conveyed a message to Zhao Ji.
"The Supreme Emperor said that he has too many karma and causes, and he has been disturbing his spiritual practice recently, so he wanted to ask the Prime Minister for help."
Li Yunze, with his eyes closed, hummed, "What does he want?"
Empress Dowager Zheng carefully looked at Li Yunze's expression, "The officials said they wanted to find a side hall for renovation..."
Seeing Li Yunze raise the corner of his mouth with a look of ridicule, Empress Dowager Zheng quickly changed her words and said, "If you don't allow it, you can even build a house in the sheepfold."
Li Yunze's response was simple "Haha~~~"
The culprit who caused the Shenzhou Road to sink still wants to live in a house?
Seeing that Li Yunze didn't respond, Empress Dowager Zheng had to add another word, "The Emperor said that he had reached an agreement with Concubine Xian..."
"Xianfei?"
Li Yunze suddenly opened his eyes, his expression was extremely strange.
Seeing this scene, Empress Dowager Zheng was a little surprised, "So happy?"
How could she be happy? Zhao Ji's wise concubine was...
Li Yunze shook his head repeatedly, feeling helpless.
Zhao Ji is indeed a bastard and a scumbag. He is really not a good person.
Over there, Queen Mother Zheng no longer paid attention to Zhao Ji's topic, and instead asked, "How are Sister Thirteen doing?"
The thirteenth sister she refers to is Zhao Huer, the concubine of Emperor Chengde, who has been married to the Prime Minister's Mansion for some time.
"It's okay." Li Yunze responded with a smile, "I'm very happy to be with her sisters. Recently I'm obsessed with playing mahjong. She is a famous wealth-giving girl in the Prime Minister's Palace."

The charming Zheng raised her hand and gently stroked Li Yunze's eyebrows. "In a few days, you will bring Sister Thirteen with you. I will personally teach her how to serve her husband..."
"This..." Li Yunze's heart suddenly moved, "It's not good. If you don't want to..."
"Don't worry, it will be no problem if you leave it to me. I will definitely convince her."
Li Yunze, who was struggling with whether to give Zhao Ji a tent, was shocked to learn when he returned to his home that the envoy from Liao and Jin Dynasty had returned.
Li Yunze was really surprised. He thought he was going to kill someone with a borrowed knife this time...
"Meet the Prime Minister." Bachelor Qin and Song Jiang Wu Yong saluted Li Yunze in the study.
"Everyone is finally back." Li Yunze, whose smile was as friendly as the spring breeze on his face, stepped forward and helped several people up. "You have suffered."
The dignified Scholar Qin immediately responded, "These are all matters within the scope of my duties. How dare I mention hard work?"
After a brief exchange of greetings, Academician Qin couldn't wait to express his merits, "Prime Minister, we have clearly found out the truth of the Liao Kingdom. The Liao Kingdom is extremely weak at this time, and it only takes a light push to collapse to the ground."
"Oh." Li Yunze's expression became increasingly weird as he took the document handed over by Academician Qin and looked at the record of the Liao Kingdom's national strength.
This was not over yet. Scholar Qin took out another document, "so that the prime minister can know that Wei Chen and others have reached an alliance with the Jin people in the Jin Kingdom. The Jin people expressed their willingness to respect the Song Dynasty and form an alliance with the Song Dynasty." They worked together to attack and destroy the Liao Kingdom. After that, the sixteen states of Yanyun were conquered.
All the land belonged to the Song Dynasty. "
"Hehe, hehe~~~"
Li Yunze's eyelids twitched. He originally planned to send you to die, but he never thought that he would actually return with meritorious service.
You have performed so well, which makes it very difficult for me.
