"Your Majesty, the Great Tang regards agriculture as its foundation. This old minister requests that after the slave registration is abolished, these people who have been restored to their civilian status can help with the autumn harvest.”Wei Zheng bowed and said. His attitude was so proper that it was rare for him to find trouble.
It was mainly because Wei Zheng also felt that this was a benevolent government, so he was convinced.
Li Shiming had originally planned to issue the decree after the autumn harvest, but it was pushed forward by the actions of these aristocratic families.
Even if he didn't do it for those aristocratic families, he wouldn't go too far for the other officials and landowners.
"Yes, the decree just issued will be carried out as usual. During the autumn harvest, the main family should give appropriate rewards to these people.”Since Wei Zheng had requested it, Li Shimin naturally followed his lead.
A group of ministers looked at Wei Zheng gratefully. After the court session, Wei Zheng was surrounded by people who kept praising him.
Everyone said that Wei Zheng had done a great job today. When he passed by Lu Minkuan and the others, he flung his sleeves and left with a snort.
The editor of the Royal Daily immediately printed the contents of today's court meeting and the decree issued by His Majesty into the Royal Daily that was to be published today.
Li Shimin allowed the editor of the Royal Daily to sit at the side during the court meeting and record what happened during the court meeting. He also allowed them to publish the current affairs of the court to the Royal Daily.
Today's editor was in a hurry after the court session, because today was going to be a big news that would definitely blow up the entire Great Tang. He couldn't help but be excited.
"Guanyin maid, Guanyin maid!" Li Shi Min's voice reached the hall before he reached the entrance.
Empress Zhangsun walked out with Princess Chengyang in her arms with a puzzled expression. It was rare for a voice to arrive first.
"Second brother, what's the matter?"
"Ha, ha…Guanyin maid, Zhen has already issued an edict to abolish slavery.”Li Shiming said to Empress Zhangsun with a smile.
" You can immediately arrange for people to go to the Department of Education, the brothels in Chang 'an, and the various human markets to arrange for those people to re-register their household registration and then arrange jobs for them.”
When Empress Zhangsun heard this, she didn't say much." Second Brother, I'll make the arrangements now.”
After saying that, he handed Princess Cheng Yang to the palace maid who accompanied her and immediately went to arrange the matter.
Li Shimin took Princess Chengyang from the palace maid.
When Princess Chengyang was carried over, she shouted,"Aye!"
Then, she hugged Li Shiming's head and kissed him on the cheek.
Li Shi Min was so happy that he beamed with joy.
"Our Little Chengyang is still the most obedient.”Then, he kissed Princess Chengyang's little face.
"Aye, shall I tell you a story?”
"Sure, Cheng Yang loves to listen to stories.”
"Then today, Aye will tell Chengyang the story of Snow White and the seven dwarves.”
" Once upon a time, there was a queen who gave birth to a daughter. Her skin was as white as snow. The queen named her Snow White..."
While Li Shimin was telling his daughter a story, Empress Zhangsun had also arranged everything.
The Education Bureau was easy to deal with. It was an official organization in itself, so it only needed a word.
Those people from the brothels, brothels, and royal industries would bring the newspaper to their doors after the Royal Daily was printed and accept the personnel directly.
Doesn't it feel overbearing? Empress Zhangsun felt that the world belonged to the royal family, so this was nothing.
As for Li Shiming, he didn't think much of it. Since he was in this line of work, he had to be prepared to bear the losses.
"Mother, Aye just told me the story of Snow White.”When Princess Chengyang saw Empress Zhangsun return, she immediately began to show off.
"Aye, how short are the dwarves?”
Li Shimin showed Princess Chengyang the height of a dwarf.
"But the dwarf is taller than Cheng Yang. Why is it the dwarf? Could it be that Cheng Yang is also a dwarf?" Princess Chengyang suddenly asked Li Shimin nervously.
" You don't understand a child's world." Li Shimin quickly explained," Chengyang isn't a dwarf. Chengyang is still small now. When Chengyang grows up, he will be much taller than a dwarf. By then, you will be as tall as your mother. He won't be a dwarf."”
Hearing Li Shiming's explanation, Cheng Yang's face relaxed, and a smile bloomed on his face.
Li Shimin teased Princess Chengyang.
Then, Li Shimin, Empress Zhangsun, and his three daughters, Chengyang, Changle, and Yuzhang, had a happy breakfast.
After that, Changle and Yuzhang had to go to school, while Li Shimin had to deal with government affairs.
On the way to the Dew Palace, he suddenly saw a palace maid wiping her tears at the corner of a palace.
Li Shimin frowned, thinking that this was not right. Now that the various systems in the palace were perfect, it was no longer as cold as before. Now, very few people would be treated unfairly.
But this palace maid was wiping her tears here. What was going on?
So he asked the chamberlain to bring the palace maid over.
When the palace maid came forward and greeted him, Li Shimin said gently,"I saw you crying in the corner of the palace just now. Did you suffer injustice in the palace?"”
When the maid saw Li Shimin ask this question, she quickly replied,"Your Majesty, the palace is doing well now. I haven't suffered any injustice." The servant cried because of what happened to the elder sister at home.”
"Oh? What happened to your elder sister?" It wasn't that Li Shiming was a busybody, but that he could learn more about the Great Tang through these minor matters.
The palace maid bowed." Your Majesty, there are only two of us in this servant's family. My parents passed away a few years ago, so this servant entered the palace to live.”
"Big sister married into the village next door. After big sister married into the village, she gave birth to three daughters.”
"Elder Sister's husband's family thought that our family only had two sisters. Elder Sister gave birth to three daughters in a row, and they believed that Elder Sister could not give birth to a son.”
"This servant's elder sister received the divorce papers and had no place to go with her three daughters. She found this servant and this servant used this year's salary to help her rent a house in the capital.”
"But elder sister has three daughters, and it will be very difficult for her to live in the capital in the future. Thinking of this sad place, she cried in the corner of the palace.”
The palace maid explained the whole story clearly in a few sentences.
After Li Shimin heard this, he felt that this palace maid was not bad. Her manners were decent, and her story was clear. It was especially rare that she had her own opinions when her parents were dead and she chose to enter the palace to live.
Although being a palace maid was also a high-risk occupation at that time, it was better than living on the streets.
However, what was the cause of this matter? The people of Earth in the future knew that having a boy or a girl was only related to the man.
Li Shi Min was speechless. In this era, was he supposed to talk about genetics with others?
"Is your sister willing to work at the Royal Elementary School? Of course, your sister's three daughters can also enter the Royal Primary School.”This was too easy for Li Shi Min to arrange.
When the palace maid heard Li Shi Min's words, she was immediately pleasantly surprised. She knew what kind of existence the Royal Primary School was.
What a joke, the sons and nephews of the court officials couldn't even enter.
If her sister could go to work, she would have nothing to worry about, not to mention that her three little nieces could still study. There was nothing better than this.
The palace maid was so happy that tears flowed out. She immediately bowed and said,"Thank you, Your Majesty."”
Although he couldn't tell anyone about this matter.
But now that there was a law, Li Shimin asked," Do you know how to write a complaint?”
