Chapter 59 Replace the gift list
Chapter 59 Qin Huaidao sat there, listening to Zhang Liang talking to officials from the Ministry of Works.
After the officials from the Ministry of Works left, Qin Huai said, "It's not good to marry so many books."
When Zhang Liang heard this, he looked at Qin Huai in confusion.
"Can I check out this dowry list?" Qin Huaidao sat there, looking at Zhang Liang and asked.
"Well, of course, you are also an official of the Ministry of Works!" Zhang Liang said and handed the list to Qin Huaidao.
Qin Huaidao took it and looked through it. There was nothing in front of them, they were all dowry routine things.
However, Qin Huaidao frowned in this book. It not only contains the Four Books and Five Classics, but also many books by craftsmen, and agricultural books. These things record the most advanced practical technology in the Tang Dynasty.
Even if those conventional books are dowry to Tubo and those in Tubo can learn them, they are not good news for the Tang Dynasty.
Qin Huaidao thought to himself: "No wonder, decades later, Tubo became a major concern for the Tang Dynasty, and in the future, the Tang Dynasty can also be said to have been slowly dragged down by Tubo."
Giving these books dowry is equivalent to cultivating your opponent!
"No wonder!" Qin Huaidao was sitting there at the moment, muttering.
"Is there any problem?" Zhang Liang saw that Qin Huaidao was frowning and immediately looked at Qin Huaidao and asked.
"My nephew doesn't know who made this gift list!" Qin Huaidao closed the list and asked as he looked at Zhang Liang.
"What was formulated by the Shangshu Province? Is there a big problem?" Zhang Liang looked at Qin Huaidao and continued to ask.
"This gift list will be given in less than thirty years, and Tubo will become a major concern in my Tang Dynasty. Uncle, you see, this is the agricultural book of my Tang Dynasty, and this is a book that records veterinarians treat poultry and beasts.
There is also the "Workworker Book" of the Ministry of Works. If one day the Tubo people brought their siege tools to attack the city of our Tang Dynasty, my nephew would not feel any surprise!" Qin Huaidao sat there, pointing to the title of the book on the list and said.
Zhang Liang also frowned at this moment.
"The Tang Dynasty prohibited such books from being spread to foreign vassals. Why do we still have to marry a dowry now? Isn't this passing all the most advanced craftsmanship of my Tang Dynasty to Tubo?
Now, our Tang Dynasty has the advantage over Tubo, I believe that they will catch up with them in a short period of time. I have always been very surprised before. Why is Lu Dongzan always in my Tang Dynasty? It seems that he is waiting for these things.
Logically speaking, Your Majesty has agreed to marry him now. As the prime minister of Tubo, there is no need for him to stay in the Tang Dynasty. It turns out that it is for this. No wonder it is said that it is said outside that Lu Dongzan knows me very well about the Tang Dynasty. It turns out that he came here for these books!
As for the princess, it is all second-hand, just to find an excuse!" Qin Huaidao sat there and spoke.
He had never understood before, why Lu Dongzan had been staying in the Tang Dynasty and was so idle?
At this moment, Zhang Liang had already stood up and walked back and forth in the living room with his hands behind his back.
Then he gritted his teeth and cursed: "It's really a puppy who sells his land. King Wei, what a king of Wei, okay!"
"King of Wei?" Qin Huaidao heard Zhang Liang say this, it was a little strange. Why is it still related to King of Wei?
"Most of this book list was formulated by the King of Wei. He recommended this time the book list for dowry. He said that he had read thousands of books since he was a child and wanted to share his worries for His Majesty, so he made this book list.
I never thought that Lu Dongzan could have such a plan!" Zhang Liang stood there, explaining to Qin Huaidao with anger on his face.
"No wonder!" Qin Huaidao nodded at this moment. Many things that he had not figured out before were now figured out.
No wonder Lu Dongzan met with the King of Wei, and even risked the Tang Dynasty's remorse to send someone to assassinate him. It turned out that he had reached such an agreement with the King of Wei.
"No wonder?" Zhang Liang saw that Qin Huaidao said these three words and did not say it again, so he immediately started asking.
"The Tubo people assassinated me last time, and there was the shadow of the King of Wei behind me. It turned out that the reason was here!" Qin Huaidao said, taking a photo of the list and said.
When Zhang Liang heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and understood that it was really as Qin Huaidao said, and it turned out that the reason for hooking up was here.
"Boping, don't tell others about what happened today. I will go to see Your Majesty tomorrow and talk about this matter!" Zhang Liang said and sat down.
He must change this gift list, otherwise, there will be no peaceful life in the northwest border of the Tang Dynasty in the future. I don’t know how many Tang men will be buried in the northwest.
"Well, my nephew understands!" Qin Huaidao nodded affirmatively and said.
"Also, nephew, you said, if you don't have a dowry book, what book should we use to replace it?
Lu Dongzan must want books. If we take these, we always need to add some more!" Zhang Liang thought for a while and asked Qin Huaidao.
"Simple, Buddhist scriptures and Taoist books are fine, especially Buddhist scriptures, which encourage people to put down their butcher's knife and become Buddhas on the ground. They encourage people to do good deeds. It is best for Tubo people. If the entire Tubo people become believers of Buddhism, it is the most beneficial to our Tang Dynasty!" Qin Huaidao sat there, looking at Zhang Liang with a smile and said,
When Zhang Liang heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then laughed and pointed at Qin Huai, very happy. This idea was really wonderful.
"Hahaha, okay, okay, I didn't expect it!" Zhang Liang smiled so happily. After Qin Huaidao said this, Zhang Liang knew how to do it. Didn't he want a book? OK, there is, Buddhist scriptures!
"And if it is a Buddhist scripture, we can save a lot of expenses. There are many temples around Chang'an City and many monks. You can completely let Your Majesty issue an edict to let them copy the number of scriptures in each temple.
After all, copying scriptures is also one of the ways for those Buddhist children to practice. In this way, the Ministry of Works does not need to ask scholars to copy books!" Qin Huaidao continued to say with a smile to Zhang Liang.
Zhang Liang heard this, his eyes lit up, and then he slapped his thigh and said happily: "Okay, it can not only prevent the loss of my Tang Dynasty books, but also save a lot of expenses.
Moreover, the people in the temple are very familiar with the words on the Buddhist scriptures. If you ask them to copy them, there will definitely be no problem. You have a good idea!"
After saying that, he happily gave Qin Huaidao a thumbs up.
"However, my nephew thinks, you'd better not mention this matter, uncle, just tell Your Majesty. This involves the King of Wei. If the King of Wei knows that you have changed the gift list, you will be resentful to you!" Qin Huaidao said and looked at Zhang Liang.
Zhang Liang withdrew his smile at this moment and snorted coldly: "King of Wei? Such a person wants to ascend the throne and dream! If such a person becomes an emperor, within ten years, my Tang Dynasty will be over!"
"Although that's the case, he is still one of His Majesty's favorite sons after all. It's not good to offend this way, so it's better to let His Majesty mention it, just tell Your Majesty!" Qin Huaidao still reminded Zhang Liang,
Zhang Liang nodded, knowing that Qin Huaidao was worried about King Wei's revenge. After all, after changing the list, King Wei could not get involved with Lu Dongzan. At that time, the King of Wei, who was angry, did not know what crazy things would happen.
"Uncle still wants to thank you for this matter today, otherwise I would almost become the sinner of my dynasty!" Zhang Liang continued to look at Qin Huaidao and bowed,
After the two sat for a while, Zhang Liang arranged for someone to start having dinner, and Zhang Liang also took Qin Huaidao to the garden for a walk. Zhang Liang was very satisfied with Qin Huaidao's nephew.
After dinner, Qin Huaidao returned to the mansion.
The next day, Qin Huaidao asked Cheng Chusi for leave and said that he was not feeling well and would not go to the paper mill. Now the paper mill is waiting for the mechanical device to be installed. Some devices are already installed by the workers.
Moreover, it is okay for Qin Huaidao not to go for a day or two. Qin Huaidao lay on the bench at home, reading with a book. It was so hot that Qin Huaidao didn't want to go around outside.
In the palace of King Wei, King Wei was not in such a good mood. Although there were a lot of ice cubes in the wing room, the sweat on his forehead was flowing. The two maids kept wiping sweat on the King Wei.
"Get out!" King Wei pushed the maid in annoyance.
The maid almost sat on the ground, but she still got up and saluted, then retreated, while Cui Ren, who was sitting beside her, looked at King Wei.
They had just received the news that the emperor replaced a lot of supplies on the list, especially those books, all of which were replaced with Buddhist scriptures, and issued an edict saying that the emperor likes Buddhist scriptures and hopes that the Tubo Zamp can also like them.
Therefore, the temples around Chang'an began to copy Buddhist scriptures as dowry supplies.
"Okay, why did it suddenly change to Buddhist scriptures?" King Wei stared at Master Cui Ren and asked.
"I really don't know this. I just know that Zhang Liang, Duke of Xunguo, went to Ganlu Hall. In less than an hour, the imperial edict came down. Now I'm afraid Lu Dongzan already knows it!" Cui Renshi sat there and looked at King Wei and said.
"Who is causing trouble? Is this a good thing?" King Wei gritted his teeth and cursed.
This was what he promised Lu Dongzan, and now he can't make any contributions to Lu Dongzan.
"If you want to know, you need to ask Duke Xunguo!" Cui Renshi stood there and bowed to King Wei and said.
The King of Wei glared at him fiercely. The King of Wei could not ask Duke Xun, even if he asked, Duke Xun would not tell him.
"Prince, Lu Dongzan, the great prime minister of Tubo, asked for a meeting!" At this moment, a manager came in outside and bowed to the King of Wei and said.
