On the way to the county government office, Li Yi'an probably told Li Shimin about what happened yesterday.

When they came outside the county government office, they saw a large group of people here, besieging the place tightly and lawlessly.

Li Shimin was very angry when he saw it, and shouted: "Jun Xian, drive them all away."

Li Junxian immediately led people over to fight, he didn't bother to talk nonsense with them, he just drove them away, and beat them if he dared to resist.

The people of those two families turned their heads and saw a large group of guards appearing in front of them, and they immediately retreated to the side.

"So bold, who dares to touch me?"

Lu Yulin came out from inside and said angrily.

"I asked Jun Xian to fight, do you have an opinion?"

Li Shimin's cold voice sounded from behind the crowd.

Lu Yulin suddenly lost his temper when he saw it, and swallowed his anger in his stomach.

"Your Majesty, it's just in time for you to come. The county magistrate of Wannian County has randomly arrested people and deserves to be killed!"

Cui Mao's words shocked the county magistrate, and he stood in front of Li Shimin tremblingly.

"Arresting people randomly? I've heard that it's the descendants of your two families who want to steal from the husband and threaten to burn the husband's yard."

Li Shimin looked at Li Yi'an, and asked again: "Is there such a thing, sir?"

Li Yi'an nodded and said: "Of course, they admitted it themselves. Fortunately, the county magistrate made the decision for me. Otherwise, my yard might be burned down by your Cui family for the second time."

Li Shimin's cold eyes swept over them: "The Cui family and the Lu family are so courageous! They can despise the king's law by relying on their families, do you still have me in your eyes?"

Cui Mao and the others gritted their teeth and looked at Li Yi'an. Before the fire in the workshop had time to settle accounts with him, the up-and-coming son fell into his scheme again.

How come they will be defeated as long as they face Li Yi'an, Lu Yulin and the two of them can't figure it out even if they want to break their heads.

"Actually, it's not impossible for me to stop pursuing it."

Li Yi'an saw their expressions in his eyes, and secretly smiled in his heart, but now is not the time to completely break the skin with them.

People can be released, but they must be killed.

"What do you want? Tell me!"

When Lu Yulin heard it, he felt that something was going on.

"It's not what I want, but the imperial court's laws and regulations. The Chang'an Bookstore was recently established. You should know it? What they want to steal is the papermaking and printing technology of the bookstore. This is an illegal act."

Li Yi'an continued: "According to the law, it should be arresting people and fines. Seeing that our bookstore has just been established, you are the first to dare to do this. Arresting people is fine, just fine some money. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

"I think this is the reason, the rules cannot be broken."

Of course Li Shimin agreed, because the husband wanted to get him money again.

In fact, he also wanted to get money from the pockets of these two families, but because of his own status, he couldn't say so, so the husband was different.

They sang together, would Lu Yulin dare to object?

Of course not.

"How much do you want?"

Cui Mao felt relieved, the last thing they lacked was money.

"You have to discuss this with Chang'an Publishing Company, but one hundred thousand yuan is the most basic."

"what?"

Li Yi'an's price made them think they heard it wrong.

The salt was gone, the officials were arrested, and even the paper workshop, which invested so much money, was burned down.

Now they have to be fined so much money, those technologies, they don't think it's worth the money, one million or hundreds of thousands, it's better to grab it.

Li Yi'an felt that this was much more comfortable than going to grab it.

Seeing their reactions, Li Yi'an asked again: "Don't you have any money? No way! Didn't your Lu family and Cui family say that you have money and power, but you can't even take out this little money? in this way."

"Whenever you release people, we will give you money!"

Cui Mao could hear his low-level provocative tactics, but he really couldn't refute them.

"You can do it now, Your Majesty?"

Li Yi'an said.

"Let them go!"

Li Shimin nodded and said: "However, next time, I will punish them severely. If they dare to procrastinate and refuse to pay a fine, I will arrest them again."

The county magistrate was ordered to go to Lu Xiuran and others to release them.

They should be very happy to finally be able to leave this ghostly place, but when they came out, they saw Li Yi'an at the first sight, and a faint hatred welled up in their hearts.

Then, they were taken away by their respective fathers, but Lu Xiuran turned his head every three steps, with resentful eyes, as if he was a resentful woman who had been abandoned.

"The family is really too much."

Li Shimin snorted coldly, and said to the county magistrate, "You did a good job this time."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your praise!"

The magistrate said excitedly.

"Sir, next time something similar happens, you must come and tell me."

Li Shimin said: "I want to see how arrogant their family can go."

Li Yi'an said: "It's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning."

Next, they also left the county office.

Li Shimin wanted to continue persuading Li Yi'an to take over the position of Chang'an Salt and Iron Envoy, but was rejected again.

In desperation, Li Shimin had no choice but to put it down temporarily, not daring to press too hard.

After asking all the questions that should be asked, Li Shimin went back to Chang'an first. As soon as he arrived at the Ganlu Hall, a warrior came in and said, Du Ruhui asked to see him.

"Hurry up!"

Li Shimin said quickly.

"Your Majesty, good news!"

Du Ruhui smiled happily: "There is good news in the southwest, General Li has won a complete victory."

The southwest is far away from Chang'an, and the terrain is complicated. It is not easy for the northern army to go to the south to fight, and the news is slow to come back.

"Really?"

Li Shimin smiled: "Xiao Gong really did not disappoint me!"

"Mr.'s plan to abolish prisons and replace officials, how is the promotion done after the pilot program?"

The stability of the Southwest and complete submission are also very important to Li Shimin.

As for the floating official system, they feel that it is definitely a once-and-for-all method if it can be implemented.

"The pilot project has already started. General Li said from the letter that he was blocked in the early stage and is continuing to use troops to suppress it."

Du Ruhui presented the letter in his hand.

Li Shimin looked at it carefully for a while, and said happily: "Okay, that's great, Xiaogong should be rewarded for his meritorious deeds, and the master's contribution is even greater, but...he resigned from the post of salt and iron envoy to me today."

Du Ruhui knew what Li Shimin was thinking, and he just wanted to reward Li Yi'an, so he thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, sir is the prince's teacher, why don't you make him the prince's young teacher?"

"It makes sense, let's make it like this first, by the way! How about Champa rice and other things?"

This is related to the people's livelihood, and is the key to whether the people are hungry. Li Shimin will ask it every once in a while.

"Champa rice has already started to be cultivated, and we will only know how it will be after the autumn harvest." Du Ruhui said.

Still waiting?

Li Shimin couldn't wait in his heart, but he couldn't be in a hurry for planting. If you are in a hurry, it will only backfire.
