After traveling through time, I took command and led the troops to conquer the mountains and rivers.

Chapter 432: How many people can stand up to the standard?

"I have always been upright in my work. If you hadn't done anything wrong, how could you have the chance to fall into my hands?"

Li Yanzhao waved to the officer behind him, "Come here, take away all the valuables!"

Liang Shuqi led the guards forward and said, "Let's see who dares to move!"

"Liang Shuqi, do you dare to disobey my order?"

Li Yanzhao drew out the long sword in his hand, "Take it down!"

Liang Shuqi didn't expect Li Yanzhao to attack him.

He was a military scholar who passed the imperial examination in the 15th year of the first year of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and was in charge of the Ministry of War for several years.

But he was quickly defeated by the real-life Li Yanzhao.

After the two fought for a while, Liang Shuqi was kicked to the ground by Li Yanzhao.

"Minister Liang, I once said in Bashu that we would meet again."

"When we meet again today, our identities are completely different!"

One is the high and mighty Prince Qi, and the other is a prisoner.

"Your Highness, Prince Qi, do you dare to kill me?"

Liang Shuqi was escorted by the police, his eyes wide open with anger.

"I am the Minister of War. I am a subordinate of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and my son is the companion of His Royal Highness the Grandson."

"How dare you touch me?"

Li Yanzhao paused in his action of retracting his sword, and sneered at Liang Shuqi who was still struggling.

"Liang Shuqi, what do you think is in my hand?"

Liang Shuqi looked up in embarrassment and looked at the long sword in Li Yanzhao's hand.

That is the Imperial Sword!

Behead the treacherous ministers above and the rebels below.

But he was neither a flatterer nor a traitor.

He not only owed money to the court, but there were many officials in the capital who owed money.

One more of him is not too much, and one of less of him is not too much.

"Of course I recognize it!"

"But do you dare to attack me?"

Liang Shuqi spoke word by word.

His words roared from the outside, stirring up Li Yanzhao's inner self.

Li Yanzhao only felt a stinging pain all over his skin, and blood rushed to his forehead!

"It's good that you recognize it!"

Li Yanzhao raised the sword again, and with a "swish", Liang Shuqi's head fell off.

At first, the yard was dead silent.

Everyone was stunned, including Li Chang and others.

"Your Majesty!" he murmured.

It wasn't until he heard screams that he reacted.

"master!"

"Daddy!"

Liang Guodong cried like a tearful man, dragging his round body and trying to struggle towards Liang Shuqi.

"Take the people away and continue moving things!"

Li Yanzhao was annoyed. He was used to seeing blood on the battlefield, so he felt a little uncomfortable at this moment.

What happened in the Vice Minister's Office of the Ministry of War was reported to the court.

There was a sensation throughout the court, and memorials impeaching Li Yanzhao flew into the imperial study like snowflakes.

Li Yansheng couldn't stop crying, "Father, you have to make a decision for Liang Shuqi!"

"Although he did something wrong, it wasn't a fatal mistake!"

The rest of the prince's aides knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.

Li Guoli, contrary to his usual behavior, stopped them.

"I know what you think, but what do you want the court to do?"

"He owes the court money and refuses to pay it back, and he is still making irresponsible remarks. Where is the dignity of the court?"

"The court has no money, what should we do if Manchester City and Jizhou City go to war?"

He asked three questions in a row, leaving Li Yansheng speechless.

From then on, no one brought up the Li Guoli incident anymore.

Seeing Li Guoli's attitude, others began to repay the money. The ministers in the court who had been "honest" for so many years were eager to sell off their property.

All of a sudden, pawnshops and jewelry stores were crowded.

When Yu Jia got the news, he asked Gou Sheng to send a pigeon message to Liu Ying immediately, asking her to buy more things.

"General, they want to exchange money, why are you still buying their things?"

Not only Gousheng didn't understand, Changhaier also didn't quite understand.

Yu Jia said happily: "Hey, what do you know?"

"Even though they want cash now, once we pass this level, who wouldn't want some rare treasures?"

"The price is so low now, you can buy it for only 30% of the usual price."

"After this period of time, if I sell it to them at a multiple of the original price, won't I make a fortune?"

Gousheng was counting on his fingers, and Changhaier shouted, "Great!"

"The general is really an expert at making money!"

Within ten days, 90% of the officials in the capital city repaid their loans, and the remaining 10% had their homes raided.

Unexpectedly, the person who succeeded Liang Shuqi as the new Vice Minister of War was Liang Qifan, the former governor of Bashu!
As a member of the Liang family's branch, the Liang family in the capital naturally had no objection to his taking office.

After Liang Qifan took office, he assisted Li Yanzhao in managing the capital's "public security" in an orderly manner.

"Your Majesty, I never thought in this lifetime that I would be able to return to the capital!"

Liang Qifan looked up at the moon on the roof, feeling filled with emotion.

"Yuzhou, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Li Yanzhao poured Liang Qifan some wine and continued.

"As long as I have the chance, I will transfer you back!"

Liang Qifan laughed, but then looked at Li Yanzhao with some concern.

"Yan Zhao, are you being too high-profile this time?"

Li Yanzhao invited him to raise his glass, "What are you afraid of?"

"If we follow the methods that Father used in the past, when will we be able to recover the debt?"

"Not to mention the empty treasury, this border crossing can't bear it either!"

"The daily food and wages for Lin Gongxun and Lin Erzhu alone would cost tens of thousands of taels of silver. Can the national treasury alone afford that?"

Liang Qifan took a sip of wine and asked, "What about Liangjiang?"

Li Yanzhao naturally knew that Liang Qifan was asking him about the candidate for the Governor-General of Liangjiang.

“I haven’t decided yet!”

This place is a lucrative job. If he wants to arrange someone, he has to wait until the arrears are collected and the person has made contributions before he can submit a memorial to the emperor.

Liang Qifan thought about it and it made sense.

"Yan Zhao, tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Li Yanzhao chuckled, "You just need to manage the security of the capital and keep it under control!"

"Father has no time to take care of these things recently!"

Liang Qifan was puzzled, "Why? This is a major event after I took office, why doesn't he care about it?"

"Recently, a beautiful concubine came to the palace, and my father was completely bewitched by her."

"Of course I don't care about law and order!"

Li Yanzhao snorted coldly, "Not a good guy either!"

"I don't know what kind of magic potion I gave my father, but he has become my concubine right after I arrived!"

The affairs of the royal family are not something that a minister can discuss.

Liang Qifan naturally stopped talking.

Only this time, they all calculated wrong.

Li Yansheng appointed his own people as the Governor-General of Liangjiang.

And Li Guoli also agreed!

Li Yanzhao was so angry that he returned to the palace and smashed a lot of things.

"Yan Zhao, calm down!"

Liang Qifan comforted him gently, "Liangjiang is not our people, so it's the same if we arrange people in other places."

"We won't give up any of these lucrative positions in the capital!"

"Capital?"

He became even angrier when Li Yanzhao was mentioned.

"How many officials in the capital city can be helped to climb the wall?"

"Either they eat, drink and have fun, or they gamble and have sex. How many of them are presentable?"
