Chapter 576: Leave the baggage

The noon blazing sun passed through the gaps between the trunks, leaving the mottled shadows on the three of Xiao Ming.
After arguing with Pang Yukun, Fiji finally turned to Xiao Ming and waited for Xiao Ming's decision.
Dealing with these royal family members is indeed very troublesome. If you don't pay attention to it, Xiao Ming will inevitably put an injustice on Xiao Ming. After all, even the faint monarch has to take care of the clan in thousands of years of history.
At this time, Xiao Ming gradually realized that the royal family itself was a huge and powerful family, and the emperor was the leader of this family.
But even so, Xiao Ming was somewhat reluctant in his heart. He knew the situation of the treasury. Now the situation of the fief itself is not rich, how to raise these clan relatives.
And he has no feelings for these clan relatives. One is that Xiao Ming's predecessor left Beijing since he was a child, and the other is that he comes from modern times, knowing that this is not the way to go.
The more the royal family multiplies, it will become a heavy burden on the country in the long run.
After thinking about it carefully, Xiao Ming said, "It's not a matter of raising it, and it's not a matter of not raising it. In that case, this king has a compromise."
Pang Yukun asked: "How to compromise?"
"It's very simple, allowing the royal family to do business." Xiao Ming said lightly.
In feudal society, the emperor kept a close eye on the royal family. He would rather raise these people like pigs than let them be self-reliant, because they are afraid that the power and money in these people will have ideas about the throne.
After all, they are all heirs of the great ancestors. If the eldest son of the direct line inherits the throne, he will fall on the side branch.
"Your Majesty, don't do it." Fiji was shocked. "This is the rule set by the great ancestors in the first place. It is for the stability of the great Yu country and cannot condone these imperial relatives to do business."
Xiao Ming always had a headache every time he heard about the ancestral family method. Perhaps in these people's eyes, Xiao Yuanzhi was great, but in Xiao Ming's eyes, he was the monarch of the feudal dynasty after all, and their own thinking was very backward.
So he said: "Since this is the rule set by the ancestors, then this king asks you, is the country of Da Yu stable now?"
"This..." Fiji stopped talking.
"As the saying goes, he is a true hero when he adapts to the current situation. How can you still abide by some stubborn rules in the domestic chaos in Dayu?" Xiao Ming said lightly.
Fiji was shocked, even Xiao Wenxuan did not dare to say such rebellious remarks, the ancestral family law is the foundation of the country, if this is in Chang'an, it will inevitably be opposed by many officials.
It's just that this is Qingzhou. When he saw Pang Yukun's smile, he knew that the matter was irreversible.
Xiao Ming looked at Fiji. At this time, Fiji was hesitant to speak. He understood that he had said something crazy in this era, because the rules set by the founding emperor of the Great Yu country were equivalent to the constitution.
At present, Xiao Ming is violating the Constitution and blatantly breaking the rules. It is basically equivalent to the U.S. President not recognizing the Declaration of Independence. If Qingzhou were not basically controlled by the officials he trained, it is estimated that a lot of officials will soon Kneeling in front of the palace gate and asked him to take his life back.
"His Royal Highness is reasonable. After all, this great Yu country is about to change." Fiji's expression suddenly became a little strange.
Pang Yukun's eyes flickered, and a smile appeared. Fiji had compromised.
In fact, compared with Fiji, he understands Xiao Ming's thoughts better. To seal the country is to seal the country, and the country of Great Yu is the country of Great Yu. Naturally, this rule has to be changed.
Xiao Ming nodded, "In this case, you should inform these royal family members, change the king of Japan to see them, and make it clear that the world today is no longer what it used to be, and those who adapt to local conditions can only keep wealth."
"Yes, Your Highness." The two said simultaneously.
This time he set this strategy, Xiao Ming basically didn't plan to take care of these royal family members anymore. After giving the last batch of silver, they would do whatever they wanted, and at most he would take care of a little business.
He is determined not to spend millions of taels of silver every year to support these people.
Having said this, the two entered the Qingzhou camp. At this time, some passing recruits were watching the daily training of the Qingzhou Army.
Unlike before, many training facilities have been established in the Qingzhou Camp. These settings are all made by the generals after reading his "Soldier Training Exercises".
On the training ground of Daying, there are running tracks, horizontal bars, climbing rockery, single-plank bridges, and quagmire. The training programs for recruits are also extremely modern, including 5 kilometers, 100 meters, horizontal parallel bars, push-ups, and supines. Sitting, long jump, and grappling.
In addition to these physical training, there are also technical training such as arrays, bullet loading, three-stage shooting, rolling in, and climbing. Another is to pack a backpack and carry equipment.
Looking at the soldiers being trained on the training ground, all the recruits who passed the inspection were full of curiosity.
As the saying goes, I have never eaten pork or watched a pig run. The training of veterans in the past is completely different from the current training. Now these soldiers have all kinds of strange movements, which really made them see.
Fiji also saw the training of Qingzhou soldiers for the first time. This weird appearance made him shake his head frequently, but he knew that it was this training that made Qingzhou soldiers stronger.
But he was still surprised. At noon, Xiao Ming led them to the canteen of Qingzhou Daying. When the food came, he couldn't help exclaiming: "Your Highness, is this what ordinary soldiers eat?"
In front of Fiji are three steamed buns, a leek egg, a braised pork, a celery shrimp and a bowl of millet porridge.
Three of these dishes are stir-fried dishes.
Pang Yukun smiled and said, "Old Fei, you now understand why military expenditures are so high."
"Understood, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, these soldiers are almost catching up with the nobles." Fiji said, while eating with chopsticks, the taste of this dish made him even more admired.
Xiao Ming said: "Today is luck for us to catch up with the meat once a week. This is not the case every day. If the Qingzhou Army is not raising pigs by itself, the soldiers would not have meat."
Speaking of it, it has only been three years since Xiao Ming arrived here, and the real government reform only took more than a year. It takes time for this waste to be developed. At present, the material for the country is still not rich enough. After all, even if it is to raise the head It takes a year for pigs to be killed, and there is no hormone ripening here.
"In this case, this is much better than the Forbidden Army. It is strange that the Qingzhou army has a strong horse, full food, and high-intensity training. Can this soldier not be strong?" Fiji is more confident in the future, this royal family member The matter of the state and relatives has also been left behind.
When the three were patrolling the recruitment of new recruits, Xiao Ming's order arrived in Yangzhou.
Ye Qingyun, who received the order, immediately ordered the soldiers to retaliate against the mighty powers of Yangzhou City and its neighboring counties. During the two days of occupying Yangzhou City, there was a shortage of food and grass. He has received news that the wealthy families in nearby counties seem to be a little restless.
