"What does it mean?" Princess Taiping looked back at Qingxuan and asked, "Is there any more dilapidated house than this?"

"It's not even more broken. The house is so broken that it won't be broken any more." Qingxuan shook his head and said again, "But there are more houses with worse living conditions."

Princess Taiping could not imagine a harsh environment.

He asked immediately: "Is there any worse environment than this?"

"Some." Qing Xuan said, "There are few wind disasters in Guanzhong, but in my hometown, wind disasters often occur in spring and summer every year."

"When the wind comes,"

"The hut was instantly lifted off the roof,"

"What's worse is that even the entire hut was blown away."

"Then the family picked up guys blown away by the wind everywhere in the mountains and fields."

"If it was just a storm, it was actually okay, but there was a heavy rain accompanied by the storm."

"Princess, can you imagine that the family has nowhere to settle down and can only hold their heads and cry in the storm? What's even worse is that such storms happen many times a year."

"Oh my God, this is too miserable, right?"

Princess Taiping's sympathy instantly turned into a river.

Pei Shaoqing also sighed, he knew that Qingxuan was talking about typhoons.

In ancient times, typhoons did not have very good defense methods.

The super typhoon could even overturn a house with steel structure, let alone thatched huts.

So when encountering a typhoon, the people of this era have only one way to lie flat.

From Qingxuan's tone, we can tell that this pretty nun was probably suffering from more than once when she was a child, so she remembered the typhoon so deeply.

Princess Taiping asked again: "How can those people who have suffered from storms?"

"There is no other way." Qingxuan sighed, "You can only sell land and land. There is no land to sell, only selling children and daughters. When no one buys it, the family will only starve to death."

"Oh my God." Princess Taiping's heart was almost broken, "This is too miserable."

Seeing Princess Taiping's beautiful eyes flushed and she was about to cry, Pei Shaoqing suddenly felt his heart moved.

At least Princess Taiping was still very sympathetic at this time. Princess Taiping, who was originally in history, probably changed her temperament after being hurt. Not only did her private life become corrupt, but she also became greedy.

But in this time and space, he would never let Princess Taiping follow the old path.

So we can take this opportunity to let her understand the sufferings of the people.

Pei Shaoqing said now: "Madam, you have been in the deep palace since you were young, and you don't know the sufferings of the people."

While speaking, a group of ragged children walked up the mountain road ahead. Seeing a group of people in bright clothes and angry horses coming, they quickly avoided both sides of the mountain road and secretly looked at them with fearful and curious eyes.

Pei Shaoqing pointed to these children and said, "Just say, which of these children are not soaked in bitter water? I'm afraid I haven't eaten the delicious food in Chang'an City."

“Those fun things in Chang'an City,”

"They are afraid they haven't played any of them."

In their lives, besides endless farm work, there is also hunger.

Looking at these children who were at most seven or eight years old and listening to Pei Shaoqing's words, Princess Taiping's maternal nature exploded instantly. She immediately turned around and ordered the palace maids who were accompanying her: "Lian'er, give some pastries to the children."

The palace maid responded, took out the pastry she carried from the leather bag and threw it over.

But the children did not dare to go forward to pick them up, and they did not rush forward until the horse team passed.

Walking all the way to the deep mountains, the villages I saw became increasingly broken and the people became increasingly poor.

Princess Taiping's face completely disappeared, with only sadness left, and asked Pei Shaoqing, "Husband, why are the people here living so hard?"

Pei Shaoqing said: "The reason is very simple, because they can only get a small piece of land, but they have to bear military service and heavy labor and taxes, so they are naturally penniless."

"How could it be?" said Princess Taiping. "Tang Rule Mo stipulates that each juvenile dynasty has 20 mu of land, 80 mu of land, half of the juvenile dynasty has 40 mu of land, and half of the juvenile dynasty has 40 mu of land."

"Take a family of five and one child as an example."

"There should be two hundred and sixty acres of land."

"How come there is only a small piece of land?"

While talking, an old man with a dish was passing by with a hoe.

Pei Shaoqing immediately crossed his hands and asked, "This father-in-law has asked me, can you ask for a question?"

"Good, Mr. Lang." The old man hurriedly crossed his hands and replied, "Do you dare to ask what Lang Jun wants to ask?"

Pei Shaoqing said: "I wonder how many people there are in my family, how many acres of Yongye land is, and how many acres of land is there in the mouth?"

The old man was a little reluctant, but he didn't dare not answer, and said with his hands crossed, "There are nine people in the little man's family, two strong men, and the rest are half a child and women and children. There are more than 20 acres of land."

"How come nine people have only more than twenty acres of land?"

Princess Taiping said in a daze: "Where is Yongyetian?"

"Where is there any Yongyetian?" the old man sighed and said, "Thirty years ago, the Yongyetian at home had already been sold to exchange food with the landlords in his fellow countrymen because of the disaster."

"Thank you, my father-in-law." Pei Shaoqing said.

He took two hangs of ten cents of money from Qingxuan.

After taking over two stale money, the old man was so grateful.

When I wanted to thank me, the nobles had already gone far away.
