Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 356 Sending Li Ke to Qingxi
Wang Quan handed a gold medal made of pure gold to Di Renjie. Di Renjie hurriedly knelt down on the ground, raised his hands above his head, and took the gold medal.

On the front of the gold medal are engraved the four characters Ruzhen in person, on the back there is engraved this hovering five-clawed golden dragon, and in the middle is engraved the characters Li Tang.

Changsun Wuji really wanted to stand up and object, and told Li Chengqian that since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there has never been any gold medal like my presence.

But now Li Chengqian is like an erupting volcano, extremely dangerous!They will not touch Li Chengqian's bad luck.

Just because Changsun Wuji and the others didn't dare, doesn't mean no one dared to stand up. The moment Di Renjie took the gold medal, Yu Shi stood up.

"Your Majesty! Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, I have never heard of any gold medals like my presence..." Yushi said a lot, spit flying, and the faces of the people around him changed drastically, and they turned to the side Move away from this censor.

At this time, Yushi's combat effectiveness was undoubtedly revealed, and his combat effectiveness was almost beyond the charts.

"Your Majesty, please think twice!" Yu Shi kneeled on the ground and kowtowed.

"It didn't exist before, but from now on, from here, there will be! No one has set this precedent, so I will be No. 1 in the ages." Li Chengqian said.

"Your Majesty..." Yu Shi was still not reconciled, and wanted to fight for it again. It was his job to remonstrate with the emperor, whether the emperor listened to him or not.

"Wu Wang Li Ke!" Li Chengqian said.

"The minister is here!" Li Ke got up and went out to salute.

"I order you to go to Qingxi County to deal with this matter. Any officials involved in concealing the disaster will be severely punished. I will grant you the integrity to inspect Huainan on my behalf and mobilize the army if necessary."

"After you arrive in Qingxi, the top priority is to immediately open warehouses for disaster relief, resettle the people, and severely punish corrupt officials." Li Chengqian said, not daring to do anything else, and directly appointed Li Ke as the imperial envoy to represent him in Qingxi to deal with corruption. .

"I obey the order!" Li Ke took the order.

Li Ke's departure from the court center naturally made many people happy. They hoped that Li Ke would never come back, and it would be more perfect to die in Qingxi.

"Although the censor opposes me setting this precedent, he is a loyal official and an official who dares to tell the truth. Although I am very angry, he does not understand my thoughts."

"But I don't blame him. Not only that, but I also want to reward him. I reward him with ten bolts of silk." Li Chengqian said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your gift! Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Censor Natou bowed.

"Be flat! This is what you deserve." Li Chengqian said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yu Shi stood up, although he failed to persuade the emperor, he saw hope, a hope that could make him shine.

Although Yushi stood up and opposed him to get a gold medal like I came in person, Li Chengqian would be very upset when he heard it.

In order for more people to be brave enough to tell the truth, he must set such an example, not only not punishing the censor, but also rewarding the censor.

He just wants to tell everyone that he wants to listen to the truth, to listen to the truth, not to listen to other people's falsehoods.

Ancient times are no different than modern times. There are all kinds of electronic devices, and you can learn about the current situation through the Internet.

If the ancient emperor wanted to know the affairs of the world, he could only understand the situation of the world through the officials. Therefore, he had to open up his voice and let more people reveal the truth instead of blocking the audience.

With such a reward from Li Chengqian, someone was eager to move, and was annoyed why he didn't stand up and speak out.

If they had stood up and spoken out earlier, they would have been rewarded!

"In the future, for all the memorandums submitted, try to be concise and to the point, and don't write unnecessary nonsense!"

"No matter how gorgeous the rhetoric is, if it is not used at all, it is nonsense. Unless it is necessary to explain, it is forbidden to write any long speeches in the memorial book for me." Li Chengqian said.

"No!" The civil and military officials saluted and responded.

Li Chengqian's words are undoubtedly a great thing for military generals. They were born in the army, and most of them have limited culture.

In the past, they had to write a tribute to the emperor first, and then the specific content. They were really tired of writing, but now, they just need to explain the facts, and there is no need for a long speech. This is simply the gospel of most generals.

For civil servants, it doesn't matter whether they write long speeches or not. It's just that there are fewer opportunities to show off their cultural skills. It's not a big deal.

"Pass down my order to exempt Qingxi from taxes for three years! After three years, all taxes in Qingxi will be reduced by [-]% to alleviate the suffering of the people in Qingxi." Li Chengqian said.

"Your Majesty! If Qingxi's taxes are reduced, the national treasury will reduce its income every year, and Datang will lose a lot." The Minister of the Household Department came out and said.

Datang has more places to spend money. If Qingxi County reduces taxes, it will lose a lot of money in the long run.

Datang has to quell chaos every year and expand outwards. In recent years, it has been hit by disasters again and again. Datang needs too much money. Now that Qingxi County has been exempted from taxes for three years, the treasury has lost a lot of revenue , if in the future, if you charge less, it will be really difficult to support Datang's various expenses.

"You don't have to cry poor with me here, don't you just want money? In the future, [-]% of the profits of Datang Bank will go to the treasury." Li Chengqian said.

As Datang Bank's business expands to all over the world, Li Chengqian will become richer and richer, and it's nothing to give up [-]% of the profit to the household department.

For him, it's just a piece of cake. As Datang Bank launches more and more financial packages, it will only make a lot of money. He still doesn't care about the money, and the world will be his by then.

"If that's the case, I have nothing to say!" Minister of the Household Department laughed. He has been coveting the bank's profits for a long time, but the bank is not under the management of the Household Department, so it's useless to be jealous.

Without the emperor's will, he has no way to transfer the money earned by the bank to the treasury.

"Let's come here today, let's retreat!" Li Chengqian said.

"I will send you off to Your Majesty!" Civil and military officials hurriedly knelt down when they saw the emperor got up and left the throne, and walked down the steps.

Li Chengqian left the Tai Chi Hall, sat on the steps, and the eunuchs carried him back to the Ganlu Hall.

Li Chengqian hopes that Li Ke can arrive at Qingxi in time to deal with the disaster victims in Qingxi County, open warehouses for disaster relief, and solve the corruption problem.

Only in this way can the problem of peasant uprisings be completely eliminated. Otherwise, if the problem of Chen Shuozhen is solved today, there will be uprisings by Ma Shuozhen and Zhao Shuozhen tomorrow.

Therefore, just opening warehouses to release food for disaster relief is only to solve the urgent need, and to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause. If you want to completely cure it, you must start from the root, and severely punishing corruption is the top priority.
