Published at 27th of October 2023 05:49:53 AM

Speaking of Li Yuan, after Li Shimin agreed with him to stay in Yizhou, Li Min prepared a mansion for him, and after the various facilities in the mansion were ready, Li Min went to the medical center to pick up Li Yuan, and always let him live in it. It is also not suitable in the medical hall.

Now Li Yuan is already sixty-eight years old, even in modern times, he is still an old man, not to mention that in Tang Dynasty, he definitely belonged to the old birthday star.

Perhaps it was during the years of house arrest that Li Yuan had a great understanding and saw through the cruelty of the world. During the time in the hospital, he did not put on an air of being too emperor. If a person who does not know him meets him, he might think that he is just an ordinary old man. .

"Grandfather, this palace has arrived." Li Yuan's palace was specially arranged by Li Yin in the south of the city, not far from the new palace, but very close to Nanshi.

Leaning out from the carriage, Li Yuan looked up at the gate of the palace. At this time, several servants were hanging the plaque of Qingyang Palace. He sighed and said to Li Yin: "Min'er, tell them not to hang up, now I live in seclusion in Yizhou. I just wanted to spend the rest of my life in peace and tranquility. If I even named a palace, wouldn't everyone know that this is my mansion? I have seen through your grandpa, the glory and wealth In the end, it was nothing but nothing, I just want to live like ordinary people in the days to come, and experience the fun of old age."

Li Yuan suddenly became a little sad, which made Li Yin a little at a loss, but what is the plaque that does not hang the palace? "Then what kind of plaque does the imperial grandfather want to hang?"

"Is there just a Li Mansion?" Li Yuan got off the carriage, "I will hide my name from now on, I won't be called Li Yuan, I will be called Li Fu, and when people ask you, just say that I am here for business. "

Opened his mouth wide, Li Yin was defeated by Li Yuan's novel idea, "Isn't it appropriate? Let the emperor know about it and call me disloyal and disfilial."

Mention Li Shimin. Li Yuan snorted, "Unfaithful and unfilial! He is the one who is unfaithful and unfilial. I only remember now that I am the Supreme Emperor. What has he done in ten years? Don't worry. I will stand up for you when the time comes." Li Yuan suddenly said angrily , with a trembling gray beard.

"Well, it's just why the grandfather did this?" Li Yin was a little puzzled.

Li Yuan walked towards the palace with his hands behind his back, and said: "Widows, widows, as an emperor, you are a lonely family. You have to bear a lifetime of loneliness. Even wives and children, fathers, sons and brothers must be careful. How tiring it must be to live like this. It used to be When Tang Guogong was in power, your father, Li Jiancheng, and Li Yuanji were inseparable brothers, but since I ascended the throne, everything has changed. I am tired of that kind of life, and now I don't want to experience the feeling of being alone. Otherwise, who would dare to approach me."

Li Yin nodded. It turned out that Li Yuan had this idea. The Tang Dynasty's system of superiority and inferiority was engraved in everyone's bones. If other people knew that Li Yuan was the Supreme Emperor, no one would dare to approach Li Yuan. After all, a companion is like a tiger. Although Li Yuan is the Supreme Emperor, he is higher than Li Shimin in terms of status, but he has no rights in his hands. "It turns out that the emperor's grandfather wanted to use his identity as a commoner to integrate into the life of Yizhou and experience life. fun in."

"That's right. Otherwise, there would be no one to play with the imperial grandfather." After speaking, the two had already entered the palace. According to Li Yuan's request, this palace was not very luxurious, and it was similar to the yards of other rich families. Li Yin also specially assigned some slaves and guards to him to protect his safety.

Walking around in the hotel, Li Yuan is very satisfied with the facilities in the hotel. The mattresses and bathrooms in the dormitory are similar to those in the intensive care unit. This is what he requested, and he is not used to leaving these things. up.

"Is the imperial grandfather still satisfied?" Li Yin accompanied Li Yuan to go around the palace, taking a rough look at the bedroom, garden, and pool.

Standing by the pond in the hotel, Li Yuan looked at the swarms of goldfish in the pond and said, "It's pretty good, hey, where did this fish come from, it's really beautiful." He looked surprised.

The goldfish in the pond were all fished out from the pond of the Wangfu by Li Yin and put here. He said: "These are all fished out from the pond of the Wangfu."

Li Yuan nodded, "I didn't expect there to be such rare things in Yizhou, yes, yes." He nodded again and again, thinking that these were local things in Yizhou.

Li Yin didn't explain, so as not to make more confusion, he said: "If the imperial grandfather likes these things, I will send someone to send some more, such as starlings and parrots, so that the imperial grandfather can also have some fun."

"Well, good, good, good." Li Yuan looked at Li Yuan with great comfort, "No wonder you like Erlang so much, everything makes people feel caring." Erlang in his mouth is naturally Comrade Li Er, I am afraid that in the entire Tang Dynasty, only Li Yuan dared to call Li Shimin that way.

After talking with Li Yuan for a while, Li Yin left the hotel to let Li Yuan rest, and he turned a corner and went to the Governor's Office. Now he is planning something. With the increase of Yizhou's population, now The commerce and trade in Yizhou City was unprecedentedly prosperous, and the Nanshi and Beishi could hardly accommodate so many vendors, so a bold idea was formed in Li Yin's mind to re-plan Yizhou City.

Because this matter involved many details, Li Yin called Shangguanyi, Dou Xiande and Guan Sixing over to discuss this matter together.

"Your Highness, if it is rebuilt, some folk houses will have to be demolished. I am afraid that some people will not be willing." After Li Yin expressed his thoughts, Guan Sixing said hesitantly.

According to Li Yin's plan, Nanshi and Beishi will only be used as markets for agricultural products, and a large-scale market will be established in the center of Yizhou City. Furniture, perfume and stuff like that.

Shangguanyi pondered for a while, "However, His Highness is also right. There are too many vendors flooding into Yizhou City. All kinds of shops are crowded in the South City and the North City. It is a chaotic mess."

"That's right, with the expansion of the city, some changes are necessary. We can't keep the rules of the millennium unchanged. This Chang'an has been in the same way for hundreds of years, which greatly limits the development of commerce. Now we in Yizhou need to Break this pattern and build a new type of city.”

Li Min drank his saliva and continued: "I will hand over a plan to you in a few days. Yizhou City will be built according to this plan in the future. What you have to do now is to register all the idle land. The state-owned affairs of this land should be handled as soon as possible, and every household must apply for a real estate certificate and a land certificate to regulate the use of the land. Otherwise, Zhang San will occupy one mu of land, and Li Si will occupy three mu of land. It's okay, you go and see, there are new houses everywhere outside Yizhou City, and some businessmen from other places are also randomly enclosing land, what does it look like."

Any ruler is a big landlord, and this has not changed for thousands of years. Li Yin didn't think it before, but now he has a deep understanding. His current idea is to legalize land ownership and make the land where the people live now theirs. Legal private property, and those lands that have not been occupied by the people will be returned to the government, unified planning, to avoid the behavior of enclosing land, and the legalized private land of the people will be their private property, there is no limit on the number of years, Li Yin also Write this article into the new law of Yizhou.

After being criticized, Shangguanyi and Guan Sixing shook their heads. In fact, the planning of the city in the Tang Dynasty was very strict. I understand, but this is the case in Yizhou City, and there has never been a clear record outside the city, so they are naturally negligent in management.

"Yes, Your Highness, after the meeting is over, I will organize Marquis Wu to take back the land owned by those illegally enclosing businessmen." Guan Sixing said.

Li Yin nodded, "This should be done sooner, because it will affect the expansion of Yizhou City in the next step."

Both of them nodded, Shangguanyi was still struggling with the first question, "Your Highness, Guan Sixing just said that many folk houses must be demolished for expansion. How should the people in these folk houses be resettled?"

"Estimate how much their house is worth and compensate them. After the expansion, we will build residential houses in the outer city. They can use the current house to replace it with a new one." It's okay to forcefully relocate these people with money, but Li Yin always has trouble getting over this hurdle psychologically, so he decided to pay the people an equal amount of compensation.

Li Yin said that both of them were gasping for breath. As long as Li Yin gave the conditions to move these people away, there would be no problem.

"Your Highness is really kind. Although forced relocation of the people will cause anger and resentment, the people have not been compensated equally in the past dynasties." Guan Sixing smiled happily.

Li Yin glanced at the two of them, "I don't know your little thoughts, are you afraid that I will lose the hearts of the people? This is the end of this matter. You must hurry up to apply for the real estate certificate and land certificate, otherwise you will not be able to do so by then." Compensation shall be based on figures.” After finishing speaking, Li Yin got up to leave, thinking of something and said, “Also, how are the census, ID cards and household registration books going?”

This matter is under the management of Shangguanyi, because Marquis Wu still has to serve the government, and some things have to be reported to him. He said: "Now the free ID card application in all states and counties has ended, and the statistics will be used to apply for ID cards." The figure is 3.6 million."

Li Yin blurted out, "There are quite a few black households in Bashu."

Guan Sixing said: "In the past, the exorbitant taxes were collected according to the head, and the common people would report as little as they could, but now His Highness has introduced a policy of collecting taxes according to the land. The more heads the better, after all, they are allocated There is also more land, coupled with high-yield rice and low taxes, they wish they could have a few more people in their family, so how can they hide it anymore."
