Datang: Acting as a celestial mystery at the beginning

Li Yi'an and the others really didn't go back to Wannian County. After dawn, they set off directly from Wang's house and went to court.

As soon as he arrived at the Tai Chi Hall, other ministers greeted him very enthusiastically.

At this time, Li Yi'an was already a celebrity in the court, no matter whether he had a good relationship with him or not, there were people who wanted to make a relationship with him.

Of course, among these people, there are exceptions, such as Dai Zhide and others, who have been seeing Li Yi'an as unhappy.

"The saint is here!"

Following Guo Dong's shout, Li Shimin walked in slowly.

After everyone saluted, before they had time to say anything, someone said that Chai and Shao came to see each other again.

In the past month or so, they sorted out their mistakes and asked to see Li Shimin one after another, but they were all rejected and dismissed. They didn't even have the chance to go to court. When they heard Li Yi'an came back, they could only ask to see Li Shimin again .

"Come in!"

Li Shimin glanced at Li Yi'an in the hall, and felt that this matter needs to be resolved.

After a while, the two of them walked into the Tai Chi Hall. They also wanted to try their luck when they heard that Li Yi'an was back. They didn't expect that Li Shimin was really willing to summon them.

"See Your Majesty!"

They both said in unison.

"What's the matter with you two?"

Li Shimin asked lightly.

"Your Majesty, the two ministers are here to admit their mistakes."

Xue Wanjun first said: "At the beginning, I and General Chai disregarded His Majesty's imperial decree and did not use His Majesty's plan. As a result, the conquest of Liang Division failed and they had to ask General Li for help. This was the first mistake."

Chai Shao immediately echoed: "The second mistake, since the two ministers asked General Li for help, but they refused to let General Li enter the city, which caused them to be in danger outside the city, and finally they had to compete with General Li and others for credit, and even made people We all did wrong to maliciously slander General Lee."

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

They said in unison again.

Li Yi'an looked at them strangely, thinking that this matter has not been resolved until now, dragging on from last year to now.

Li Shimin's face finally eased a little, they also saw it, and they felt relieved, they should be fine.

Chai Shao turned to Li Yi'an, and said, "General Li, I offended me a lot because of jealousy, please forgive me."

"Me too!"

Xue Wanjun bowed his hands and said, "General Li, please forgive me."

It was the last they could do.

On this Tai Chi Hall, in front of Li Shimin, they even apologized to themselves, how could this work.

Li Yi'an immediately replied, "The two generals are serious. I have already forgotten what happened back then."

"All right!"

Li Shimin interrupted: "Retire first, I will talk to you later."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

They can finally be sure that nothing is wrong, otherwise Li Shimin would not have gone to chat with them in private, and should be able to return to his post.

"Discuss other things first."

Li Shimin said again.

"Your Majesty, I have something to announce!"

Yu Shinan first said: "Nearly two years have passed since the tax system proposed by General Li. According to what I know, Hangzhou is now peaceful, and neither the people nor the family have any complaints."

Of course Li Shimin knew these things, not only in Hangzhou, but also in Yaozhou.

"How does Li Qing feel?"

Li Shimin nodded.

Now that the tax law has been changed, it seems that there is no way to reverse it. In the beginning, more than half of the families with five surnames and Qiwang were willing to express their support, and even paid taxes for two consecutive years.

During this period of time, the rest of the families continued to reduce their domestic slaves and shortened the places where taxes were required to be paid as much as possible. Some small families also took the initiative to pay taxes at the Ministry of Civil Affairs, hoping to gain a good impression.

Although for them, the loss of interests is too great, but the general situation is so irreversible.

"Since it is set to take three years, I think it will be this time next year to determine whether it is feasible."

Li Yi'an didn't want to continue to be scolded for being early.

If it is ahead of time, there must be many people who are not convinced.

"Then let's talk about it next year!"

Li Shimin said again.

The next thing to discuss has nothing to do with Li Yi'an. After leaving Chang'an for so long, he doesn't know much about what will happen.

After the court meeting, Li Shimin left Li Yi'an alone and went to the Ganlu Hall together.

"Sir, you are in the desert, are you okay?"

Li Shimin said proudly: "If you have any needs, sir, just tell me, and I will definitely do my best to satisfy you."

Li Yi'an cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty's affairs are basically settled."

Regarding the Maitreya religion and other matters, he was also not comfortable mentioning it to Li Shimin casually. After all, the emergence of this organization represented a rebellion. If Li Shimin knew about it, he would probably send troops to eradicate it.

"It's fine, it's all up to Mr. this time, but I didn't expect Goguryeo to be so hateful."

Li Shimin paused for a while and then said: "Before, I promised you that if you come back after making meritorious service, you will receive three provincial servants and six ministers, and you can choose whatever you want."

"At that time, the minister was only joking, His Majesty can't take it seriously."

Li Yi'an waved his hand. If he really picks casually, the other officials will complain again and again. He shook his head and said: "Your qualifications are still young, and you don't understand anything. Whether it's the three provincial servants or the six ministers, they are all court officials. It is inappropriate for a minister to change an important position at will, if His Majesty really wants to reward the minister, and if the minister wants to ask for a mansion, Chang'an just lacks a place to live."

When Li Shimin heard this, he began to make up his mind again, Mr. is Mr., high-minded, with different ideas, he does not pursue fame and fortune, and he does not want to embarrass me, as long as this mansion is.

"Since Mr. has no other requirements, then I agree!"

Li Shimin said: "I remember that Pei Ji left Chang'an and left behind a mansion. I will arrange for someone to send the title deed to my husband."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Li Yi'an bowed his hands here.

"Xieli and others have already been sent to Chang'an, what do you think the master should do?"

Li Shimin asked again.

After they were delivered, according to the historical trajectory, Jieli and others were basically appointed officials in the Tang Dynasty, but now Li Shimin doesn't seem to want to appoint them official posts.

Staying in Chang'an, Li Shimin felt that it was an eyesore, and if they were sent back to Mobei, I was afraid they would mess up again.

"I believe that those who should be killed should not be kept."

Li Yi'an said: "As for who should be killed, I don't quite understand, this needs to be determined by Your Majesty."

"If you should kill, you can't stay!"

Li Shimin pondered for a while, nodded and said, "If the ones stay, what should we do with them?"

Li Yi'an said: "Since His Majesty thinks that someone is suitable to stay, no matter what you do, it will be fine."

"I listened to Mr., this matter has been considered by the court for a long time, and Mr.'s suggestion is the most suitable."

Li Shimin smiled and said: "Okay, I have nothing else to do here, but Chengqian has been asking me when the master will come back. If you are free, you can go to the East Palace for a walk."

"The minister will leave first!"

Li Yi'an left Ganlu Palace.
