Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Shangguan Tingzhi did a terrible thing indeed.

Even Li Qinzai's current status, he did not dare to tell Li Zhi easily about this matter, because he was too sensitive and involved too many royal families, officials and aristocratic families, and he would become the target of public criticism if he was not careful. enemy.

Li Qinzai didn't expect Shangguan Tingzhi to be so kind, and he didn't know whether to praise him for his innate righteousness or lack of understanding.

Can such a terrible thing be said in the memorial?

You really think that all the civil and military men in the dynasty are elegant gentlemen, so it doesn't matter if you are wrong.

When their interests are involved, they are sworn enemies. Those with vested interests would like to kill your whole family.

Land annexation, stubborn diseases that cannot be cured in the past dynasties, dynasty decline, and dynasty change are the most fundamental reasons.

For thousands of years in China, countless good ministers and virtuous ministers have racked their brains to solve the problem of land annexation. However, no matter how hard they try, the best result is to slow down the speed of land annexation and let the dynasty's Guozuo survive for tens of hundreds of years .

The result of the powerful and powerful annexing the land will definitely lead to the decline of the dynasty, and the refugees who cannot survive will rise up and overthrow the powerful and landlords who have occupied a large amount of land.

After the change of dynasty, a new interest class emerged, and the people of the world temporarily obtained land, but a new round of land annexation gradually began...

History is just such strange circles one after another. These strange circles repeat themselves. China has a history of thousands of years, and there have been so many sages and wise emperors. Don't they know the danger of land annexation?

Of course they know, but they can't do anything about it.

Because this is the interests of the entire class, even the emperors who are high above them dare not touch them easily. Once the vested interests find out that someone is going to attack them, they will fight back wildly and tear those who touch their interests to pieces. No exception.

Li Qinzai is well aware of the history of his previous life. The decline of the Tang Dynasty was initially due to the decline of the Fubing system, and the root cause of the decline of the Fubing system was the land annexation.

Fighting for the country, guarding the borders for the country, staying until the time of retirement and returning home, and finding that their land is gone, and has been forcibly bought or occupied by the powerful with various legal or illegal means, who is willing to be a soldier, who is willing Going to the battlefield to fight desperately for this group of enemies who have invaded their own land?

Most of the Fubing in the Tang Dynasty were hereditary from peasant households, from father to son, and from son to grandson. The basic premise for them to be Fubing was that they were peasants.

If the land is gone, and the farmers are reduced to refugees, wandering around with their families, where can the imperial government summon the soldiers?

This is the root cause of the decline of the military system of the Tang Dynasty.

Later, the Tang Dynasty changed the military system of the government to a recruiting system, and soldiers were still soldiers, but their motivation to fight on the battlefield was no longer to earn permanent employment for themselves, but purely to serve as soldiers and eat food. How much combat power could such soldiers have?
The fate of the Tang Dynasty gradually declined, and the governors of the feudal towns each supported their own troops, and the most dazzling dynasty in history could not escape the fate of subjugation.

Unfortunately, historically, the problems of land annexation and the decline of the military system in the Tang Dynasty began with Li Zhi and Empress Wu.

Li Qinzai thought that these problems would gradually surface in his middle age, but Shangguan Tingzhi had already discovered the signs of danger.

Now Li Qinzai finally understood why his father said he couldn't help Shangguan Tingzhi.

It really couldn't help, because Shangguan Tingzhi stabbed the hornet's nest.

This kind of thing cannot be said on the stage. The civil and military officials in the court are not clean under their buttocks. As long as they become officials, they will more or less use various means to buy private land and farmland.

Including Cui Jie, when Li Qinzai was in Goguryeo, he received bonuses from the cooperation with Xue Na, and Cui Jie spent most of it to buy land.

Not only Weinan County, not only Ganjingzhuang, Cui Jie told him triumphantly that she spent money to buy a lot of land near several counties in Guanzhong.

Li Qinzai's own family is like this, and other officials and powerful families can imagine how serious it is.

Shangguan Tingzhi blatantly raised the issue of land annexation. The matter was indeed very serious. This memorandum simply added countless enemies to him.

Want to save Shangguan Tingzhi, how?Passing the rope is more or less the same.

Yesterday, I heard the son of Marquis Xunyang say that Shangguan Tingzhi might be transferred from Chang'an to serve as the governor of Qizhou. Now that Li Qinzai thinks about it, it might not be that simple.

Someone had murderous intentions towards Shangguan Tingzhi, and Chang'an City couldn't get rid of him, the influence was too great, but after being transferred from the capital to Qizhou, there might be many deadly traps waiting for him.

It doesn't have to be an assassin's assassination, what's more, it's an indisputable frame-up.

What did Wei Xiaobao do in Pingxi Palace?

He dug a hole in the ground and buried a golden knife and jade seal. Wu Sangui was so frightened that he almost hanged himself.

The same is true for Shangguan Tingzhi. It is hard to say whether others will use such a low-handed method to deal with him. As long as he is charged with an indefensible crime and reported to Chang'an, Shangguan Tingzhi's life will probably be accounted for. The entire Shangguan family will be involved.

Having figured this out, Li Qinzai sighed, Shangguan Wan'er's father was about to blow up.

If it was more serious, Li Qinzai's future daughter-in-law might be blown up.

Looking at Li Qinzai's troubled face, Li Siwen snorted coldly: "Now, do you still want to save Shangguan Tingzhi?"

Li Qinzai sighed: "I want to, but I dare not save him."

"Can you offend those dignitaries and landlords?"

Li Qinzai's expression became more and more bitter: "To be honest... I can't afford to provoke you."

Li Siwen sneered: "You have been jumping up and down all these years, and there are people you can't afford."

Li Qinzai sighed: "After all, the baby's wings are not hard enough."

It's true that they can't be provoked, and the traversers are not so awesome that they don't care about being enemies of the world.

Li Siwen hummed, and his expression suddenly became serious: "Qinzai, I know that you have grown up, have abilities, and have your own opinions, but this matter, I advise you not to get involved, it's too dangerous. Be careful that my entire Li family will be wiped out."

"The matter of land annexation has been seen as early as the Zhenguan period. Most of the court officials turned a blind eye and closed their eyes. The emperor also knew the danger of land annexation, but he really had no way to solve it. He could only decree that Shangguan Tingzhi Sealing up the memorials, it is said that it is to protect him, "

"As everyone knows, there is no impenetrable wall in the world. From the moment Shangguan Tingzhi's memorial was handed over to Shang Shuxing, it has been impossible to hide it."

Li Qinzai thought about it for a long time, and had to admit that he is really not capable of solving such a big problem now.

Why can a time traveler solve things that the good ministers and virtuous ministers for thousands of years can't solve?This time traveler was just sitting in an office in his previous life, a communal animal with no limbs and no distinction between grain and grain. How could he have the ability to solve the problem of land acquisition?
