Li Shimin''s will soon reached Yizhou, and at the same time Li Yin also knew about the dispute in the court. He did not expect that Changsun Wuji and others would threaten Li Shimin with their lives. It is just to remind Li Shimin that the Tang Dynasty was supported by the nobles, and the interests of these nobles should also be considered when making decisions.
Li Yin was shocked at first. The history he studied has always been the supremacy of kingship. Why is Li Shimin now restricted by these courtiers? But after thinking about it carefully, he understood. In itself, it broke the enfeoffment system, which is a wrong decision in everyone''s eyes, and from Wei Zheng''s first objection, it can be seen that in the court, Wei Zheng is recognized as a person who never pulls sides, and he objected at this time It shows that there is indeed something wrong with Li Shimin''s decision.
Second, as the saying goes, the emperor is wise and the ministers are upright. Many decisions of Li Shimin in history have been fiercely opposed by the courtiers. In the end, he had to give up and build the Luoyang Pce. This was an easy task for the emperors in the past. Despite his opposition, he forgot it.
The shrewdness of Changsun Wuji lies in the fact that he understands that kingship is supreme, and no one can stop Li Shimin if he insists on going his own way, so he adopted the method of retreating. He first agreed with Li Shimin''s decision, but added a few small conditions, because you The decision was wrong. I supported your wrong decision. You can no longer waive these conditions, and my additional conditions are not good for Li Yin, but good for Datang.
What Changsun Wuji said, even Wei Zheng agreed, Li Shimin was guilty, although he was angry, he finally agreed. After all, having the support of the ministers is different from not having the support of the ministers, and he didn''t want to quarrel with the ministers. It''s too stiff, especially Wei Zheng, who is so stubborn.
After reading the secret letter, Li Yin shook his head and smiled wryly. It’s really not that easy to be an emperor through the ages, but Changsun Wuji really caused him a lot of trouble. Let him be a feudal lord to defend against the Nanman, Tubo and Tuyuhun. He is really going to drag him to death in the war.
After the decree arrived in Yizhou, the happiest people were of course Li Yin''s confidants. Before, they had to consider the imperial court''s decree, but now they only need to listen to Li Yin''s order.
Sitting in the main hall, Li Yin looked at the excited crowd below, and said: "From today on, this Chengdu mansion is my fiefdom, are you all willing to stay and assist me?"
"The ministers are willing!" Shangguanyi, Wang Yinlong and others stood up and bowed. They understood that once they agreed, they would be Li Yin''s ministers, and their official careers would stop in Chengdu, and they would never be able to hold official positions in other ces.
Li Yin''s eyes swept over the faces of Cui Zhang and Cui Tong, and he frowned and said: "You are all the children of the Cui family, and you will have a bright future in your official career. Are you sure you will stay?"
Cui Zhangdao: "Your Highness, the ministers are willing to stay and serve His Highness like a dog. This is also the meaning of the Patriarch."
Li Yan nodded and looked at Xue Rengui again, "Xue Xiaowei, how about you?"
"Thanks to His Highness''s appreciation, Xue Rengui is willing to follow His Highness all his life!" Xue Rengui said firmly.
Thest stone in his heart fell, and Li Yin suddenly became overwhelmed with pride. This title of vassal king allowed him to let go of tossing around in Chengdu.
Next, Li Yin rearranged the responsibilities of several people, in fact, it just expanded the rights of several people. Their responsibilities were no longer limited to Yizhou, but to the entire ten prefectures of Chengdu.
After assigning duties to all the people, Li Yin asked Qin Huaiyu to immediately go to Shizhou to take over the Zhechong Mansion of each prefecture, and transfer the military power to the Chengdu Mansion for unified dispatch, while Xue Rengui immediately went to Songzhou. Li Yin believed that the next step for Changsun Wuji Several useful generals in Songzhou have been transferred away. At this time, Xue Rengui must be sent to take over the army''s preparation and defense, so as not to make mistakes.
Immediately, Li Yin ordered to recruit talents, and set up a political affairs academy and a military academy, and those with excellent grades would be recruited ording to their talents. Li Yin personally served as the principal of the two colleges.
In addition to this incident, Li Yin asked the newspaper to open a new edition of the newspaper, named "Chengdu Mansion Newspaper", which will specialize in reporting various events in Chengdu Mansion in the future. At the same time, Li Yin''s will to be the king of Chengdu was also published in Shengtang Business Daily It was sent to various ces, and for a while, there was an endless stream of powerful nobles and officials from ten states who came to the pce to congratte, and Li Yin, the local emperor, was as beautiful as ever.
After being busy for several days, Li Yin put away everything and returned to the modern vi. The machine tools produced by the machinery factory have all beenpleted, and the things Li Yin ordered are also in ce. It will take him a few days to ship these things. go back.
But before that, Li Yin went to Datang Corporation, and he was going to let Xia Yan buy a few more properties.
"Aluminum factory,pound bow factory...?" After receiving Li Yin''s order, Xia Yan took notes.
Li Yin knocked on the table, "That''s right, and then hired some experts to develop and try to make ourposite bow materials surpass the European and American standards. We want to develop our own brand, and the aluminum factory is the same. The high-strength aluminum alloy market is also good. , Hire some experts to study some lightweight and high-strength metal materials, these materials are widely used now, and another is the mold factory, this industry is also good, it is an emerging industry."
Xia Yan wrote down one by one. Anyway, Datang is rich and powerful, and buying a few small factories is a trivial matter. She said: "It''s the chairman."
Of course, Li Yin did this to prepareposite bows and alloy armor. It is not easy to buyrge quantities ofposite bow materials, so it is better to produce them yourself. However, Li Yin, an aluminum factory, considered the difficulty of refining aluminum. Aluminum ore needs to be mined. Yes, the technology of extracting aluminum and refining aluminum alloy also needs to be learned. The basic industry has to be developed step by step, but the things that should be produced in advance must also be produced in advance. With his own aluminum factory, he can produce aluminum alloy blocks and take them back. Tang Dynasty, then recast into armor.
After exining these things to Xia Yan, Li Yin went to the warehouse. Hundreds of machine tools for various purposes have been transported there. These are the most primitive machine tools, which can be operated by hand. After taking them back, they will produce flint. The parts of guns and steam engines will be much simpler, and the structure of these machine tools is simple, easy to imitate, and they can be repaired or manufactured by themselves if they are damaged.
In addition to this, Li Yin went to get theposite bow materials and crossbow materials he bought, and brought back a lot of various rare metals. After all, not only aluminum alloys need these metals, but many medium metals need to be mixed with these rare metals. , and the manufacture of fireworks is inseparable from the elements of metal magnesium.
In the end, he took hundreds of manpower tricycles and small carts before returning to Tang Dynasty. After returning, Li Yin immediately transported these things to Taoyuan, especially these machine tools were sorted and installed in workshops one by one, and theposite bow materials were also handed over to the maker. Bow craftsmen let them start production.
