Wang Chao was looking at Li Shimin, and Li Shimin was also looking at him.

Shocked in his heart, he had never seen such a handsome person before, even if he was standing there normally, one would not dare to look down upon him.

He smiled and cupped his hands: "As expected of the well-known Young Master Moyin, seeing him today is indeed a well-deserved reputation."

Wang Chao smiled lightly, but did not say anything flattering.

Li Shimin has a very large intelligence network. Naturally, he knows very well what Wang Chao has done. He is a little arrogant about such people, but he is not annoyed at all. : "Your Highness, please."

Wang Chao was naturally impolite and stepped into the door of Li Mansion along the way.

He was here to help Li Shimin, not to be a guest at the Li Mansion, so he didn't need to be humble at all.

Entering the Li Mansion, what catches your eye is the vast and majestic courtyard.

Li Shimin took two quick steps and led the way.

The group entered the reception room, and Li Yuan, the head of the Li clan, was also there.

Li Yuanneng has such a handsome son Li Shimin and a beautiful daughter Li Xiuning. Naturally, his appearance is not bad, and his facial features are dignified. Although there are wrinkles, the momentum of staying in a high position for a long time is more and more solid under the precipitation of time.

Li Yuan put his eyes on Li Xiuning, and stood up with a smile: "Quick, let Dad see if he is thin or not."

Li Xiuning had a happy look on her face: "Dad, my daughter eats and dresses well in Yangzhou Palace, how can she lose weight."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Wang Chao and introduced: "Dad, this is the prince."

Li Yuan, the old fox, was shocked in his heart, and said to Wang Chao with a smile: "Welcome the prince to my Li residence, and I will welcome you from afar."

He heard that Wang Chao was young was one thing, but seeing it with his own eyes was another.

As the head of the Li clan, Li Yuan's strength has reached the early stage of the master realm, and Wang Chao did not deliberately cover it up, and his cultivation base was immediately seen clearly.

Mid-Master Realm!

So young, his strength is even higher than him!

Although Li Yuan is a member of the court, he also adheres to the principle of 'strength is respected' like the people in the rivers and lakes. Therefore, even Li Xiuning, who is a daughter, has practiced exercises and learned martial arts under his guidance since he was a child.

Now in front of this Wang Chao, he doesn't dare to look like a senior at all, and speaks as an equal.

"Young Master Wang, Xiuning is really a great blessing to be able to invite Young Master Wang to help our Li clan."

Wang Chao smiled lightly and looked at Li Xiuning.

Li Xiuning immediately became shy, and took over the words: "It is indeed Xiuning's blessing to be able to get to know Wang Gongzi. Dad, let's not talk about this, how is the clan recently? I received a letter from the second brother, saying that it was Yang Guang Guang has increased the tax on me in Taiyuan, which is more than double the amount. Such a foolish monarch, who does such a thing, is not forcing my Li family to raise troops."

How could Li Yuan not see that Li Xiuning was deliberately changing the subject, and gave Wang Chao a meaningful look before answering, "Indeed, we have turned in [-] taels of silver now."

"So many! Dad, what about the soldiers in our battalion?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard footsteps outside.

A general-level man in armor walked in: "Meet your lord, I have something important to report!"

Li Yuan frowned: "What's the matter?"

"There are deserters in the barracks."

As soon as the words fell, in the hall, apart from Wang Chao and his party, Li Shimin and Li Xiuning's expressions changed greatly.

The worst happened.

Li Shimin sighed, and did not shy away from Wang Chao again, or, in other words, this is what he said: "Since Yu Wenhua joined our Li family in front of Yang Guang, Yang Guang was in charge of preventing the Li clan from becoming more powerful. Taiyuan has to pay heavy taxes, and the military camp has to be reduced in food and salaries. Due to the reduction of military salaries, our generals can only deduct military salaries from his soldiers, causing deserters. This is not the first time."

Li Yuan's expression turned cold: "In order to prevent further deserters, we can only deal with it by military law."

Li Xiuning hurriedly said: "Father, you must not do this. Soldiers are born and die. Apart from allegiance to our Li family, it is nothing more than to get military pay to support the family. Now that 997 silver taels are owed, deserters are also normal."

Li Shimin nodded: "Yes, Dad, if you want to stabilize the heart of the army, you should only be appeased, not high pressure. The soldiers have already suffered from the reduction of military pay. If they are dealt with by military law, they will become disaffected, and then they will become a mess of loose sand. How can they continue to fight. Victory? The only way is to be gentle, so as to stabilize the morale of the army."

He continued: "Most of these soldiers have feelings for our Li family. As long as we handle it properly, there shouldn't be too many problems until we raise silver taels. From now on, we have to tell the truth. Generals are like soldiers. All pay cuts!"

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he looked at Wang Chao: "Wang Gongzi thinks my method will work?"

Li Yuan and Li Xiuning also cast their attention.

Wang Chao sat on the chair, sipping the good tea brought by the maid, and shook his head slightly: "Wang knows very little about the marching and fighting, so Young Master Li doesn't need to ask me."

After all, he said no more.

Kou Zhong, who was behind him, saw Li Xiuning looking at Wang Chao, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

He pulled Xu Ziling and walked out without saying a word.

Wang Chao looked at it and knew in his heart that it seemed that they were going to make their own decisions.

As such, it's not a bad thing.

Chapter [-] boiled eagle

What Ssangyong is going to do, Wang Chao can guess.

It is nothing more than feeling that I owe Wang Chao a favor, and I want to do something for Wang Chao to repay.

Although the motive is correct, Wang Chao does not like such unauthorized actions.

Today's Shuanglong, although under Wang Chao's hands, still has a little more of his own ideas, and these ideas, maybe in the future, will delay Wang Chao's major events.
