Sisters like Qinghe who are less than ten years old naturally don't need it, but some princesses who are twelve or thirteen years old have already begun to grow, so Li Ke has prepared them for them.
When I got up the next day, Li Ke, who had twenty or thirty years of modern experience, could tell at a glance that Changle and the others had put them on, and their figures were obviously much straighter.
Seeing Li Ke, several older sisters greeted Li Ke shyly.
"How was it? Did you sleep comfortably yesterday?" Li Ke said with a smile. Of course he would not mention this matter. The little girl has a poor face. Although according to history, Changle even has a son now, but In modern times, I am still in high school.
"Comfortable! Third brother, your bed here is so comfortable!" Chengyang jumped up immediately, "That quilt is light, soft, and warm. Wow, third brother, can I take it back?"
"Of course. Since Third Brother took it out, he brought it back to you." Li Ke smiled. These are goose down quilt cores, so of course they are comfortable. After all, their company is considered a state-owned enterprise, and among other things, the benefits are absolutely very high.
"Wow! Third brother, you are great, but I don't want to go back, can I just stay here?" Chengyang said quickly.
"Okay, you can stay as long as you want." Li Ke waved his hand with a smile, "Today the third brother will take you to visit the Zhuangzi."
Although there is everything in the palace, such as various gardens, it is just a circle like a park, and here, there are different scenery, and the mood will undoubtedly be much better.
"Now you go have breakfast." Li Ke said with a smile.
"Well, we had dinner, is there breakfast?" Gao Yang was a little curious. Datang also served a two-meal system, with only breakfast and lunch.
Breakfast is around seven or eight o'clock, lunch is between two and four o'clock in the afternoon, and there is no dinner in the evening. When Li Shimin first came to the throne, there were frequent natural disasters in the Tang Dynasty. In order to save food, Li Shimin took the lead in eating two meals. When he was hungry at other times, he would only eat snacks.
This is the emperor's helplessness. Does it actually have anything to do with how many meals the emperor eats? The food Li Shimin saved could not feed even one family of disaster victims.
And although he sets an example, will the world's rich and powerful families follow suit? Imitate P!
Zhumen is full of wine and meat, and it is impossible to disappear even if the bones are frozen to death on the road.
So the topic comes up again. When the emperor is useless and is stared at every day, if you are a little willful, the historian will not know how he will respond to you.
"Of course, Third Brother has three meals a day here." Li Ke is used to three meals. In his own home, of course he will not change it. No one has the right to say anything.
After breakfast, Li Ke originally wanted to take Changle and the others to visit Zhuangzi, but Tian Meng came.
"Your Highness, I would like to see you on behalf of the Duke."
"Huh? Li Jing is here? Please come." Li Ke was stunned for a moment, but he instantly understood that this was Li Shimin's instructions, and he came to see him off.
Li Ke immediately became enthusiastic. Although he didn't want to be the emperor, he still had to prepare the necessary back-up plans. Prince Xiaoyao, he must be Prince Xiaoyao if he has enough strength, otherwise he would be Prince Xiaoyao!
In the main hall, Li Ke soon saw Li Jing, whose hair and beard were already gray. It is hard to imagine that Li Jing was 64 years old this year, but even so, Li Jing still led troops to fight and helped Datang pacify many foreign troubles.
"I've met Duke Dai." Li Ke took the initiative to greet him, and then saluted Li Jing seriously.
"Your Majesty, Li Jing, has met His Highness the King of Shu. I dare not accept this as a courtesy." Li Jing hurriedly said. The twenty-four ministers of Lingyan Pavilion are actually very good people. For example, Li Jing will resign at the beginning of this year. , the excuse was that there was something wrong with his foot. Li Jing had been injured on his leg. It was indeed something wrong with his foot, but it did not affect the fact that he was leading troops in the war.
As for the reason for resigning, everyone knows it, but Li Shimin has not agreed yet, but it is estimated that Li Jing will have to resign again after a while. Anyway, after three resignations, Li Shimin will definitely agree to it, but he will probably have to be used in the end.
"Duke Dai, you are too polite. As the pillar of the Tang Dynasty, you and all the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are the backbone of the Tang Dynasty. Without you, the people of the Tang Dynasty, including me, would not be able to stand up." Li Ke said seriously .
"Your Highness, you have embarrassed me." Li Jing said modestly, but the red light on his face showed that he was obviously very happy. Who said that His Highness, King of Shu, couldn't speak? Look, isn't this very good?
"Duke Dai is here today, but because of something my father told you?" Li Ke asked.
"Exactly, here, I must first thank His Highness the King of Shu on behalf of these soldiers." Li Jing stood up and saluted Li Ke again.
This time Li Ke did not hide, but accepted the gift calmly, and then said: "How many retired soldiers are there now near Chang'an?"
"This amount is a bit too much..." Li Jing was a little embarrassed.
"How much?" Li Ke asked again.
"Less than five thousand." Li Jing was embarrassed to tell the number. This number seemed not high, but in fact... it was already very large, because quite a few soldiers had been released home. You can also farm your own land.
The rest of them actually had meritorious service, but the meritorious service was not very great, but they could not just go home to farm. The court wanted to arrange for them to work for an official, but they all had disabilities.
"That's it?" Li Ke was a little stunned. He thought there were hundreds of thousands, but it turned out to be less than five thousand? But thinking about it, it seems that hundreds of thousands is not suitable.
In fact, the disability rate in ancient cold weapon wars was not too high. There were two main points. First, minor injuries were healed quickly and did not affect the combat. Some injuries were scary, but as long as they did not damage the muscles and bones, in fact, as long as they could be treated Okay, it won’t have much impact.
Secondly, the medical conditions are so poor that disabled people with amputated limbs who can still survive in modern times had at least a 70% chance of death in ancient times.
Think about the fact that the total army of the Tang Dynasty is maintained at about 600,000 to 800,000 people. Five thousand people with disabilities are already quite a lot. You must know that this is not arranged, and there is no telling how many people have been arranged.
Li Jing: "?"
That's it? What do you mean?
"Your Highness, do you think there are too few?" Li Jing was dumbfounded, five thousand people! Just feeding and drinking these people is a big expense? This is a bottomless pit!
"Well, indeed." Li Ke nodded.
"This... Your Highness, please forgive me for speaking frankly. I understand your Highness's intentions, but these people are all big soldiers and have no special skills. They can only help His Highness do some hard work and do some work to maintain public security, and they are also good at doing hard work. Limited by physical conditions.”
"So these people's salaries, food and drinks cost a lot of money. Although I don't want to say it, it is a bottomless pit. Your Highness must not be careless because of this. If you have just taken over for less than a year and a half, you will not be able to afford it. Instead of doing this, you should It's better not to take over." Li Jing said earnestly.
Li Jing's words were for Li Ke's good, and it was a good thing to take over. However, if he had to return it to the court after a year and a half, let alone what Li Shimin thought, there must be many people in the court impeaching him. At least Changsun Wuji would have to give it to him. He has a reputation of treating important court matters as child's play.
