Inside the Hall of Longevity.

After hearing the emperor's question, the Minister of the Chamber of Commerce was overwhelmed with thoughts, and respectfully said: "Report to Your Majesty, the land reform has indeed been hindered by some..."

"Hinder?"

Li Si looked at the minister of households, his expression unchanged, as if he had expected: "Tell me, what obstacles are there?"

For Li Si, it is normal for land reform to encounter problems.

If the land reform, from the beginning to the end, there are no obstacles, and the local families and the border officials all cooperate meticulously, then it is abnormal.

This means that the other party took the initiative to stretch his neck and leaned towards Li Si knife.

How can a local family be so stupid when it can stand for hundreds of years?

Maybe they will be afraid of the power of the Tang Empire, and they can only hold their noses and surrender, but they will never do nothing at all.

Li Si wasn't worried about getting in the way.

What Li Si is concerned about is, who is blocking it?

Are other people or other forces involved?

The Minister of the Ministry of Housing heard the words, and said bravely: "Report to Your Majesty, it is the Beiting Jiedu."

There are a total of ten emperors in the Tang Dynasty.

It is these ten military envoys who guard the borders of the Tang Dynasty and resist foreign invasions, and the Tang Dynasty flourished.

But it is precisely these ten jiedushis, cholera in the Tang Dynasty, and the An-Shi Rebellion, which are the outbreak of the Jiedushi problem.

In the Tang Dynasty, Jiedu made the system prosper, and Jiedu made the system decline.

"Beijing Jiedushi?"

A look of surprise appeared on Li Si's face.

Li Si did not expect that it would be the Jiedushi of Beiting.

Among the Ten Commanders of the Tang Dynasty, Beiting Jiedushi was not the strongest, but not the weakest either.

The Minister of the Household continued: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the old minister sent the people who went to Beiting to report back. Zhao Zheng, the seventh son of the Jiedushi of Beiting, heard that His Majesty was planning to collect taxes by mu, so that his subordinates would drive out the court people. North Court..."

"Also, Zhao Zheng once put down his words..."

The Minister of the Ministry of Commerce said this, listened to it, and glanced at the emperor cautiously.

"What did he say?"

Li Si looked a little cold.

At this moment, he didn't know where he was, and what Zhao Zheng said was definitely not a good thing.

"Zhao Zheng said that if you want to collect taxes by mu, let His Majesty go to Beiting to discuss..."

As soon as the Minister of the Chamber of Commerce finished speaking, he knelt on the ground with a thud, not daring to look up at the emperor.

"Let me go there in person?"

Li Siqi smiled.

Li Si never expected that Zhao Zheng, the seventh son of Beiting Jiedushi, would be so bold and openly provoked the imperial power!

No matter how powerful the side joint degree is, he is still a minister in the end.

As a courtier, but uttering wild words and ignoring etiquette, it is simply outrageous.

"It seems that Beiting doesn't need to exist anymore..."

Li Si's voice was very soft, but it made the scalp of the Minister of the Ministry numb.

"Do you have anything else to do?"

Li Siwang said to the minister of households.

The Minister of the Ministry of Commerce looked hesitant, and finally said through gritted teeth: "Report to Your Majesty, the old minister believes that it is inappropriate to cancel the customs tax..."

When the Minister of the Ministry of Housing said these words, he was frightened.

The abolition of customs duty was, after all, an order from the emperor himself.

Now, when the Minister of the Household says these words, he is questioning the emperor's orders...

Earlier, the Minister of the Household was reminded by Taiwei Yang Qinglin that he knew that the emperor did this, and it must have a deep meaning.

But the Minister of the Ministry of Housing couldn't think of where the deep meaning was.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the cancellation of the customs tax is equivalent to letting business develop. Once business develops, businessmen earn more money. I, the people of Tang Dynasty, will definitely abandon agriculture and start business. At that time, I will face the problem of land waste... ..."

The Minister of Accounts said.

"Your Majesty, the most fundamental part of my Tang Dynasty lies in food."

"If there is no food, even if the business is prosperous, what is the use?"

The Minister of Accounts read it very thoroughly.

He knew that the emperor's abolition of customs duties was for business development.

However, if there is no food, any development will be rootless...

Only when there is enough food in the national treasury will Datang become more confident.

When Li Si heard these words from the Minister of the Ministry of Housing, he tapped the dragon case with his right hand and said, "Aiqing doesn't have to worry too much about this issue."

"Even if you don't mention this matter, in a few days, I will make an order."

When Li Si said this, his eyes turned and fell on the Minister of the Household: "The Minister of the Household, pass on my will."

"The minister accepts the order!"

The Minister of the Ministry of Commerce knelt on the ground with a thud and said loudly.

"It is announced to the world that if the fertile land is not cultivated for three years, it will belong to the imperial court."

As soon as Li Si finished speaking, the Minister of the Household only felt a roar, and everything became clear.

If the fertile land is not cultivated for three years, it belongs to the imperial court.

In this way, the problem of land waste is solved.

After the land is in the hands of the imperial court, the imperial court will distribute it to the farmers who need to cultivate, so that the land will never be abandoned from beginning to end.

The Minister of the Ministry of Housing was very emotional at this moment.

For him, the problem of land waste is an unsolvable problem, and even if he wants to break his head, he can't think of a solution to both.

But in the eyes of the emperor, only a decree will solve it.

This is royal power!

Able to easily accomplish what one person could never accomplish.

Afterwards, Li Si had a few more chats with the Minister of the Ministry of Housing.

"I retire..."

The Minister of the Ministry of Housing left the Hall of Longevity.

Li Siduan sat on the throne of the dragon chair.

"Northern Court?"

The corners of Li Si's mouth raised, and a hint of sarcasm appeared: "I want to see what the inside story is."

"It's you, Zhao Gong, the Jiedu envoy of the Northern Court, who is courting death, or someone who wants to test me!"

Li Si sneered.

"Come here, declare Cao Zhengchun!"

...

...

Longyou.

Jiedushi's mansion.

Longyou Jiedu envoy Wang Wulin paced slowly.

"General."

A man who looked like a scribe stepped forward and said with a bow.

Wang Wulin didn't even look at the other party, and said casually, "What's the matter?"

The scribe said respectfully: "General, on the Beiting side, Zhao Zheng has released harsh words and blatantly provoked the emperor of the Tang Dynasty..."

Since the Longyou Jiedushi can place manpower on the court, he can also arrange hidden lines in other Jiedushi's residences.

"Oh?"

Wang Wulin was a little surprised: "These people are quite courageous."

As soon as Wang Wulin said this, the scribe beside him was full of doubts.

these people?

What's the meaning?

Wang Wulian glanced at the scribe, shook his head and said, "Zhao Zheng is just a chess piece. The real shot is someone else."

The scribe's tone was confused: "Why is the general so sure..."

"Because Zhao Zheng didn't have the guts to provoke imperial power."

"Don't talk about Zhao Zheng, even his father Zhao Gong is not qualified to provoke imperial power."

"Northern Court doesn't have this background!"

Wang Wulin waved his hand.

The scholar thought thoughtfully: "General, who is the one who ordered Zhao Zheng..."

"Who could it be?"

"It's nothing more than those old guys."

Wang Wulin didn't care.

When the scribe heard this, his pupils shrank.

There are only a few people who can make the dignified Longyou Jiedushi call him that...

"Then General, what should we do now?"

The scribe suppressed the shock in his heart and asked.

"How to do it?"

Wang Wuling sighed softly: "Don't intervene, don't stop, just wait and see what happens.".

"When today's son, the emperor's heart is like an abyss, his means are unfathomable, but it is not so easy to test..."

Wang Wulin looked in the direction of Chang'an. He seemed to see a figure in a dragon robe and holding a Jiangshan Sheji in the Datang Palace.
