Emperor Sui Yang

The commander of the East Turkic army in Qiuci is Telekang Sheoli, and the three major Turkic official positions: Yehu, She, and Telle are all held by members of the royal family.

The reason why Kang Sheoli appeared here was because he received orders from Shi Bi, came to kill Yang Xuanting, and then framed him for the Western Turks.

After all, Qiuci is a vassal state of the Western Turks. If Xuanting died here, the Western Turks would be involved.

Shibi also came up with this idea after meeting Wei Jie, the envoy sent by Li Jing. Otherwise, he would not have known that Yang Xuanting would go to Qiuci. And with Zhao Deyan, a Central Plains PHOTO, he naturally knew where Xuanting came from.

If such a person dies, the Sui court will definitely investigate him.

But it's a pity that Kang Sheoli came a step late, and Xuanting was careful enough. If he entered the city, he would inevitably be delayed for a few more days, because King Qiuci would entertain him, but he didn't enter the city. This is true luck Bursting.

Although Xuanting was not captured, Kang Sheoli met Tiele's main force in Geleng, Qibi. Now that he had met them all, what else could he say?Just do it.

There is no such thing as a fight-or-run situation in Turks, because the folk customs are like this. Whether I can beat you or not will be known after I have done it. If I can't, it's not too late to run away.

Furthermore, in an encounter with cavalry, whoever escapes will suffer the consequences.

When Yang Ming attacked Tuyuhun, he once had a relationship with Qibi Geling. The other party came to divide the territory, but Yang Ming ordered him to retreat.

At that time, the Western Turkic regime was unstable and there was constant civil strife. What's more, Pei Ju was in Zhangye and stabilized the Western Turks with just one mouth. Otherwise, the destruction of Tuyuhun would not have been so smooth.

Later, Yang Guang inspected Zhangye and took care of Chuluo. Shekui took advantage of the situation and became the new Western Turkic Khan. It didn't take long before he began to use troops against Gaochang.

The court at that time always believed that Qibi Geling should be given a princess by marriage to separate her relationship with Shekui, because Tiele and Chuluo were mortal enemies, but not Shekui.

The envoy sent out that time was named Cui Yi, who was the younger brother of Cui Zhen, the Han military advisor in Geling, Qibi. After this person came back, the court no longer wanted to marry Tiele.

Because the news brought back by Cui Yi said that at that time, Qibi Geleng had already planned to rely on Shekui. It was no longer feasible for the Great Sui Dynasty to separate, because Tiele was too far away from the Great Sui Dynasty, with a Western Turk in between, and Tiele Internally, they also wanted to be attached to the Turks, rather than to the Sui Dynasty.

Because if Tiele fell out with the Western Turks, the Sui Dynasty would not be able to save them.

It's the New Year, and in the first few days of the new year, several batches of paper at the Chang'an County paper mill were successfully sold out, and the money was given to the left and right Wuwei for payment.

The imperial court must also need to appease other military governments. Don't worry, everyone, come one by one, clear their accounts first, and you will be next.

The guards still have this patience. After all, they see the wages of the left and right guards being settled, and they have hope in their hearts, knowing that the court will not rely on them.

We still need to prepare for the Lantern Festival during the Lantern Festival. In the first month of the year, the taxes for this year in the Guanzhong area will be collected. This difficult year can be considered over.

"Over in Liaodong, news came from Youpushe that Mohe and Khitan are already preparing letters of credence, willing to merge into the Sui Dynasty, and to control the northeastern part of the country for the Sui Dynasty. Starting next year, we should move the population there for the long term. ," Yang Gongren said while drinking at tonight's banquet.

I have to say that Pei Ju's mouth was already very proficient. I don't know how he persuaded Mohe and Khitan, but he got the job done.

Everyone is more inclined to the battle of Goguryeo, which scared the opponent out of fear and feared the Sui Dynasty, so Pei Ju went so smoothly. This is of course part of the reason. The other reason is probably that the Sui Dynasty allowed them to continue to manage the old territory.

The rest is up to Pei Ju's personal performance. You have to coax others so that they can rely on Sui with confidence. It is never easy to deceive people.

Yu Wenshu ate the meat and laughed and said: "It must be Pei Gong. He is really Zhang Yi today. However, last year, Hebei, Shanxi, and Shandong had already moved more than [-] people and about [-] households to the old areas of Goguryeo. Is it a different place to move to the Northeast this time?"

Yang Yue smiled and said: "Where to change? People from the south will definitely not go, and only Guanzhong and Henan are left in the north. This is where our Sui Kingdom is based, and we cannot move, so we have to move from Shanxi, Hebei, and Shandong."

Guanzhong and Henan have always been the largest reserve of soldiers in the Sui Dynasty, and they were also the granaries. The population has never been lost and has always been on a growing trend.

After Luoyang was built, more than [-] wealthy merchants from all over the world moved to the Eastern Capital. With the gradual development of trade along the Grand Canal, the number of people who moved to the Central Plains was the highest in the world, far exceeding Guanzhong and other places.

When Yang Ming heard Yang Yue's words, he did not say a word, but lowered his head and drank the broth. He actually hoped that Guanzhong would migrate to the northeast, which would effectively divide the power of the clans in Guanzhong.

Besides, Goguryeo migrated from Shandong, Shanxi, and Hebei. If the Northeast is still these three places, in the future, the east of Luoyang will be completely dominated by the aristocratic families from the three provinces, which will pose a great threat to the capital.

But if you want people from Guanzhong to go to the Northeast, it is completely wishful thinking at the moment. No ordinary people who can live a decent life will go, let alone aristocratic families.

Other aristocratic families still want to let others be the pioneers and manage the area well, and then they can pick up the pieces.Therefore, Yang Ming felt more and more that it was too advanced to make Luoyang the eastern capital, standing in the middle of the world and overlooking all directions.

"The people in the Northeast are strong and strong. You have to move slowly there," Lu Chu said:

"After Hebei suffered successive years of chaos, many counties and counties have become rural areas and need to be filled with outsiders instead of migrating out. The same is true for Shandong. The situation in Shanxi is slightly better, but it is a barrier to the east of Guandong, so it is not suitable to move anymore."

Hebei and Shandong have been the places with the most mutinies in recent years, so much so that some counties have suffered heavy losses, suffered massive population losses, and have shown signs of a shortage of people in the fields.

Since the Sui Dynasty, the population from narrow villages (with many people and few fields) has been migrating to the nearby Kuanxiang (with few people and many fields). The populations in Shandong and Hebei are no longer considered wealthy. After all, these two places are North China, the breadbasket of the world. The plain is also the place where most people died during the canal construction and the conquest of Goguryeo, so the ratio between acres of land and population is currently balanced.

This balance is a false balance, because the land granted to civilians is generally insufficient, but the figures reported below show that it is balanced.

The land equalization system of the Sui Dynasty was originally a bad debt.

Wei Xuandao said: "We will definitely need to move a group of Han people there as soon as possible next year. The mixing of Hu and Han people is conducive to local governance. I think that we can investigate the prisons all over the world. Those who have committed minor crimes are willing to move their families to the northeast and their crimes can be pardoned." "

"That's a good idea," Yang Ming put down the spoon and nodded:
"The Mohe and the Khitan are already willing to surrender. We are slow to move here, and there is a risk that things will change. After all, there are many Turks living there. This is a region with swings. If we had not begun the Western Expedition, we would not have had the chance to conquer the Northeast. Wei Gong This statement is the best policy, but it can be relaxed a little. As long as it is not a serious crime, anyone can be exempted from it, and the court will also give him money-making tools to help him establish a firm foothold as soon as possible. "

The ten evils are treason, treason, rebellion, rebellion, immorality, disrespect, unfilial piety, disharmony, unrighteousness and civil strife.

Yu Wenshu asked: "The Duke of Wei is in charge of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. How many criminals are currently in custody?"

In the early days of the founding of the Sui Dynasty, there were not many prisoners in the prison, because the Kaihuang Law was much stricter than the current Daye Law. Heavy codes were used in troubled times. After Yang Guang succeeded to the throne, the world gradually became more stable, so the Daye Law was slightly looser.

For those who committed crimes during the Kaihuang period, the key ones were cut down directly, and the lighter ones were beaten half to death. In fact, not many people were actually detained in prison.

Yang Jian is also unwilling to spend money to support criminals.

There is no such thing as a sentence of one or two years, more than five years and less than ten years. They are either dead or half-dead. Those who are imprisoned are not ordinary people, and most of them can still come out.

But starting from the first year of Daye, after the laws were relaxed, there were more prisoners in the prison, but these prisoners also had a prerequisite, that is, your family members had to pay money to the prison, which is equivalent to food expenses. If you have no money, the Ministry of Punishment is not willing to lock you up. .

What should you do if you are caught as a bandit and your family has no money to pay for your food?The Ministry of Punishment will ask the Ministry of Civil Affairs to issue a document to change your household registration to slave and sell it.

The slaves are miserable, they might as well be locked up in a prison.

The slaves in the palaces of major families are high-level slaves. The low-level slaves are all working hard outside. They are mining, farming and everything. They basically don’t have enough to eat. If you die, you will be buried on a straw mat. .

The yamen door opens to the south. If you have no reason, don't come in. Do you think they are joking with you?Ordinary people, it is best not to have anything to do with government agencies in their lives.

Wei Xuan replied: "There are about [-] criminals in custody across the country. As for how many there are after removing the ten evils, we need to check."

"That shouldn't be much. Most of the ten evil crimes are sentenced to death and exile," Yang Yue said with a smile, "tens of thousands of people are enough."

At least in the capital, many of the criminals imprisoned in the Penal Department Prison were implicated. For example, the King of Han's rebellion implicated a large number of people. These people's families still had some money to support them in prison without being killed. .

Wang Gui of the East Palace escaped disaster after listening to Yuan Tiangang's words. Later, the prince established a heir and granted amnesty to the world, so he dared to leave Zhongnan Mountain.

The general amnesty is based on crimes. People like Wang Gui should not be included in the scope of the amnesty, but the Wang family in Taiyuan has the ability to include you in the scope of the amnesty.

Yes, your uncle Wang Li followed Yang Liang in rebellion, and you were implicated. However, after the Ministry of Punishments sent people to investigate, they were surprised to find that you and your uncle Wang Li had fallen out with each other a long time ago, and have not been in contact with each other for the rest of their lives. Oh, then you It'll be fine.

Therefore, many of the criminals imprisoned in all the big prisons in the world are actually of high quality and are very suitable to be used as a migrant population.

The laws are relatively loose, which is beneficial to the country and the people, but some crimes will definitely require heavy punishment.

Yang Ming approved Wei Xuan's suggestion and ordered him to do it immediately.
