Great Tang Broom Star

Li Hong sat down.

Zeng Xianglin looked at Jia Pingan with pitiful eyes.

Don't talk about this topic, okay?

Jia Ping ignored it, "What do you need to make a decision?"

Li Hong said, "Smart."

Jia Pingan shook his head, "Countless smart people have died above their smarts. So what I want to tell you is that any decision is made based on extensive research. If something happens, if you want to make a decision, you must first Investigate and ponder, the investigation is clear, the matter is thoroughly considered, and then the most appropriate decision can be made."

Li Hong was taken aback.

Jia Pingan laughed and said, "But you think many emperors make decisions just by patting their heads?"

Li Hong nodded, "Han Wu too."

"Yes." Jia Pingan smiled encouragingly, "So many of Han Wu's decisions were wrong. But people only saw his achievements in defeating the Huns and ignored his mistakes. But what if those decisions can be good?"

Li Hong returned to the palace with this question.

"Your Highness, it's time to watch the politics."

The prince really has a lot to do, Li Hong nodded and left immediately.

The monarch and his ministers are discussing matters.

"Your Majesty, the prince seeks an audience."

"Why did you come back?" Empress Wu said in a low voice, "Could it be that something happened outside?"

The prince came in and found his own place to sit down.

start!

Shangguanyi, who was interrupted, continued: "... Gyeongju was flooded last year, His Majesty exempted half a year of taxes, this year it should be collected... Gyeongju has joined the army but wrote a letter, talking about taxes, saying that it is best to exempt another six months... ..."

Shangguanyi raised her head and said: "I think half a year is enough, and I will be exempted for another half year this year. In the future, everyone will beg like this when they encounter natural disasters. The local officials will gain a good reputation, but the court will suffer a great loss."

Li Yifu nodded, "This wind cannot last long!"

Seeing the prince thinking, Li Zhi asked, "What does the prince think?"

The crown prince got up, "I want to ask Shangguan Xianggong, why did you join the army and exempt yourself from the proposal for another half a year? I know that the local officials can't skip the letter unless it is a major matter. Why is this soldier like this?"

Shangguanyi froze for a moment.

He glanced at the document, "This person said that the floods in Gyeongju last year were serious, and the people were still seriously injured, so they will be exempted for another six months and rest with the people."

The prince glanced at the emperor, and the emperor nodded, indicating that he could continue.

The so-called watching politics is to watch from the sidelines, just come with your ears, and temporarily close your mouth.

Li Hong said: "The people of Qingzhou are as he said?"

Shangguanyi smiled and said: "The governor of Qingzhou wrote that the disaster relief was timely in the middle of last year, and the people of Qingzhou rejoiced. This year, they have recovered and can pay taxes."

Li Hong asked again, "Did the court send someone to check?"

Shangguanyi: "..."

Li Yifu smiled and said: "Your Highness, I don't know, the Tang Dynasty is too big, there are many things happening in the world every day, I try my best to plan everything, but I can't check everything, otherwise I don't need to do it. "

Everyone laughed.

But Li Hong asked: "That is to say, the decision-making of the court is based on the officials' words. What if someone tells a lie?"

Li Yifu said: "Then it will be punished."

Li Hong shook his head, "But what about the people's suffering? The people's suffering is in vain? Even if it can't be investigated in advance, can't it be checked afterwards? Li Xiang said that there are too many things, but he has been watching politics for a long time. He knows most of them. Nothing needs to be checked.

Let’s talk about the exemption of taxes in Gyeongju today. Gyeongju is not far from Chang’an. How about sending a censor or a small official to investigate? If the people really regained their vitality, then it was the matter of the recorder, and he should be dealt with. If the people are still suffering, the governor of Gyeongju is dereliction of duty, and this person should not be reused! Even to dispose of! "

The boy's face was a little red, "I think it's time to investigate!"

Shangguanyi glanced at the emperor.

"His Majesty!"

The prince exploded, how to deal with it?

Li Yifu said with some dissatisfaction: "Your Highness is a bit extreme, I think it seems... the same line."

The prince's eyes lit up suddenly, "Does Li Xiang want to say that uncle made Gu become extreme?"

Li Yifu glanced at the queen,

Then fell silent.

This is the default!

The prince's face turned red, "Does Li Xiangke know how Qingzhou is? If you don't know, why dare to assert that the people of Qingzhou have recovered?"

Li Yifu was silent.

Shangguanyi smiled and said, "Although His Highness is a little anxious, he is kind."

——Prince, stop making trouble, okay?

Empress Wu said softly: "Your Majesty..."

The son is going to be bullied.

There is no right or wrong at this moment!

Some are just guards!

The emperor said flatly: "So... Wang Zhongliang."

Wang Zhongliang stepped forward, "Your Majesty."

The emperor said: "Let the censor Yang Deli go to Qingzhou for inspection, go back quickly!"

Break up the meeting!

No!

"Scatter!"

Monarchs and ministers dispersed separately!

The prince walked ahead.

Li Yifu whispered: "Jia Ping'an is back."

As soon as Jia Ping'an came back, the prince would have a moth, this kind of person should keep him away from the prince!

Shangguanyi agreed, "Your Highness should be safe!"

You are not the emperor, and you still have your father and mother on top of your head, why are you persecuting the prime minister like this?

This is where the prime ministers are dissatisfied.

Watching politics, you just sit on the sidelines and listen, you have to ask the prime minister a hard time!

The prince walked very firmly.

Li Yifu smiled and said: "It's a good thing to suffer some losses as a state reserve!"

Shangguan Yi praised: "This statement is very true."

Depressed Xu Jingzong sneered and said: "Shangguan Xianggong seems to be very compatible with Li Xiang!"

Shangguanyi froze for a moment, "Hehe! They are all colleagues!"

He is the emperor's dog, and so is Li Yifu, but Li Yifu's dog is more unrestrained, while Shangguanyi is more conservative.

All dogs!

Who is nobler than whom?

Li Yifu looked at the prince's back, "There are many things you can't do, you have to admit your mistakes!"

It's a veiled hint.

...

"Yang Yushi!"

Yang Deli's life at Yushitai is very good, and he is reading documents at the moment.

"who?"

he asked looking up.

A small official came in outside.

"Your Majesty ordered you to go to Gyeongju..."

Yang Deli took the task and followed other people's methods... For example, Li Ji back then, after receiving the order from the first emperor to serve in Diezhou, he went straight to Diezhou after leaving the imperial city, without even passing by his house.

But Yang Deli still went home first.

Both daughters and son are at home.

"Miss, I'm going to Gyeongju. You take the children at home. Look for the father-in-law and mother-in-law for small things, and find peace for big things!"

After Yang Deli hurriedly finished his explanation, he went to the kitchen and picked up a bunch of rice dumplings to escape.

Aunt Wang followed and said eagerly, "Husband, the rice dumplings are cold! I'll warm them up for you."

Yang Deli said as he went out: "Ping An and I were very happy when we could have cold rice. This rice dumpling can be eaten even if it is cold for half a month. Don't worry about it. It's better to bring the children at home. I will come whenever I go."

Yang Deli set off with a bunch of cooked rice dumplings.

Four days later he arrived in Gyeongju.

Gyeongju officials came to welcome them.

"Yang Yushi has worked hard all the way." The governor Huang Yingzun cupped his hands with a smile.

Yang Deli obviously felt alienated.

"They're on guard!"

"I am very busy."

Yang Deli put aside this reason and took the accompanying officials to check around Gyeongju.

They came to a village.

"Look, there's still mud here!"

Yang Deli walked to the dry mud, "There was a flood in Huazhou back then, and I ran to a high place with safety. Fortunately, the governor led people to block the hole."

He stood on the mud, looking down at the fields below, his face darkened.

"Go and ask!"

There is a rider in the distance looking over here.

Yang Deli glanced at the man and cursed: "Extremely rampant!"

He entered the village.

"It turned out to be a broken house!"

The village in front of me was dilapidated, and the houses seemed to be pieced together at a glance.

A group of old people sat outside in the sun, dumbfounded.

Yang Deli walked over.

"Old man, it looks like life is not good!"

Yang Deli sat on the ground opposite them without hesitation.

The old people looked wary and refused to speak.

"I'm Yang Deli!"

Yang Deli patted his chest, "Your Majesty ordered me to come here to check whether Gyeongju needs to continue to exempt taxes. You just say, if I have the slightest selfishness, I will be struck by lightning and die!"

The eyes of those old people moved slightly, and one of them asked: "But what about the official..."

Yang Deli's mouth collapsed suddenly, and the corners of his mouth were bent down forcefully, blinking his eyes and said: "I am the official, I am the censor!"

The old man sighed: "Censor... I'm afraid it won't work either!"

Yang Deli got up and slapped his chest loudly, "I have impeached His Majesty!"

The old people were stunned, and then shocked!

Yang Deli said angrily: "I have impeached His Majesty many times, you can just say it, if I dare not stand up for you... I will change my surname! I will not be surnamed Yang from now on!"

Changing one's surname is the greatest humiliation to a man, second only to death!

The old man was shocked, "Get a stool for Yang Yushi."

Yang Deli sat down, "No, I'm a farmer, so I feel comfortable sitting on the ground."

He smiled, "I won't live without my butt touching the dirt!"

The old man nodded, "Yes! If you are not a farmer, you don't have such a feeling. The soil is our root!"

"Say it."

Yang Deli took out a pen and paper.

"It's bitter!"

A group of old people are sighing.

"Last year, there was a flood in Gyeongju, our village was flooded, our crops were gone, our houses were gone, and most of our belongings were gone..."

Yang Deli nodded, "Water is ruthless!"

"Why!"

"Last year, half of the tax was exempted. It is said that His Majesty is kind, and it is indeed kind."

"But it's still hard!"

"There was no harvest last year, but this year seems to be okay, but the house has collapsed, and many things in the house are gone. Do we need to buy more?"

Yang Deli nodded, "It should be added!"

"But those officials all said that Gyeongju is in great shape! The situation is good or something, we want us to thank His Majesty for your kindness, but..."

An old man came out of his home, carrying a cloth bag.

The cloth bag looked like it contained some things. Yang Deli's many years of experience, he knew at a glance that it would not exceed five catties.

The old man smiled wryly and said: "That's all the food in the house, and I'm going to take my children and grandchildren to find wild vegetables later, so I can fool the harvest time. But adults can fool me, what about the children? Seeing the children cry from hunger, old man... The old man wished he could cut his own flesh and blood for them to eat!"

A group of old people looked at the censor.

The censor's face was livid!

"I'm in charge!"

Yang Deli went straight to the state office.

"Where is Zhao Canjun?"

This question brought him a lot of cold eyes.

A small official said: "Go home."

"I found it!"

Yang Deli stood there and said.

No one moves!

Yang Deli roared, "Where is Huang Yingzun?"

Huang Yingzun, who had been staying in the duty room and refused to come out, had no choice but to come out with a forced smile and said, "What does Yang Yushi mean?"

Yang Deli stared at him, "The cruel officials are talking about you! They want to use the suffering of the common people to pave the way for their official career, but if they don't get you out...the censor won't do it!"

"Yang Yushi!"

Huang Yingzun's complexion changed drastically, "This is a misunderstanding..."

"And wait..."

Yang Deli turned around and left.

Huang Yingzun asked with a cold face, "Where has he been these two days?"

"I went to a few villages."

"Is someone talking too much?"

"yes."

Huang Yingzun glanced at the other officials, "This old man's term is over this year, and I want to go back to Chang'an, and you want to go further..."

"yes!"

This is what each takes.

Huang Yingzun said: "If this matter is exposed, the old man will not talk about it. At worst, go home, but you are still young and have a long career."

A group of officials looked different.

An official said: "For now, we can only keep silent."

Huang Yingzun nodded, "After sealing my mouth, the old man wrote to Chang'an, Yang Deli, a censor who disturbs the wind and rain, is no good! No!"

He looked serious, "What's the point of slandering local officials at will?"

...

"My subordinate, Zhao Pu!"

Yang Deli found Zhao Pu who joined the army.

"Huang Yingzun's term of office expires this year. If he wants to be promoted, he has to look for achievements. So he said that the officials in Gyeongju worked together to make everyone in Gyeongju live and work in peace after the flood... This is a great achievement."

Zhao Pu's eyeballs were red.

"It's fake! It's all fake! The officials went to see it, and the lives of those people are still difficult."

Yang Deli asked: "Why did you leapfrog the report?"

Zhao Pu said: "The lower officials can't understand..."

Yang Deli sighed and patted Zhao Pu's shoulder, "I see."

After leaving Zhao's house, the accompanying official said, "This Zhao Canjun seems quite upright."

Yang Deli didn't speak.

Not long after, a man sneakily appeared in his sight.

Yang Deli waved.

The man came quietly.

Yang Deli asked, "How is Zhao Pu?"

The man said: "It's mediocre. At the beginning of the year, he made a mistake and was reprimanded by Huang Yingzun in public and dealt with."

The accompanying officials were stunned.

Yang Deli said, "Understood."

After the man left, the little official sighed, "I'm actually blind!"

Yang Deli said: "There is no love or hate for no reason. By the way, Huang Yingzun is greedy for profit... Tell them, we are back in Chang'an."

...

That afternoon, a group of officials appeared in the village.

The villagers who gathered at the entrance of the village to chat panicked when they saw this.

"Who said life was hard?"

The leading official held his head high, full of hostility, "Who said that?"

No one dared to speak.

The official scolded: "A group of lowly dog ​​slaves, they forgot the kindness that made you send food in the first place, and the hardships that made you faint on the embankment twice, eating inside and outside!"

Dozens of villagers squatted there with their heads down, like criminals.

The official walked slowly with his hands behind his back, "In Gyeongju, I am waiting for the sky. Is Chang'an far away? It's not too far, but Chang'an's hand can't reach Gyeongju. Whoever thinks that Chang'an can turn the world upside down by himself, yeah tell you Wait, that's a dream!"

The villagers were trembling.

The official sneered and said, "Are you afraid? It's too late! Tell me, who started to say those things to Yang Deli? Who?"

"Yeah!"

Someone behind said.

The official scolded: "You bitch, beat me!"

He found that the officials were unmoved and looked strange.

And those villagers looked up at his back, very excited. Some people actually had tears in their eyes, as if seeing their relatives after being bullied.

The official's heart moved slightly, and he turned around slowly.

Yang Deli came quickly and slapped him head-on.

"Bastard, yeah, I know your methods...the best thing is to intimidate and take revenge on the people!"

He punched and kicked the official until he ran away, cursing: "The county magistrate, why don't you take care of it now? Yeye is here today, tell you to wait, Qingzhou officialdom... is over!"

"Yang Qingtian!"

The villagers greeted him with tears in their eyes.

"Thank you, Yushi Yang."

"You're welcome."

"How did Yang Yushi know that they will come to retaliate?"

Yang Deli said: "When I was in the village, the tax collector overcharged my family by more than 20 catties of rent, so I went to the county to sue. I said at the time that I would return and punish the little official, but the next day the little official The official came to my house and smashed a lot of things..."

He said with mixed feelings: "At that time, I felt that the sky was falling."

Whoooo!

Someone began to cry.

Yang Deli said: "I know the methods of these officials. They are the best at bullying the superiors and bullying the inferiors. When the people are bullied, they feel desperate! I know it, I know it all."

Whoooo!

A group of villagers are whimpering!

Yang Deli stamped his feet, "Go!"

The news came later.

"Yang Yushi went to the prefecture, had a dispute with the envoy, and finally made a move."

Well!

A group of villagers were dumbfounded.

"Can you still do it?"

...

Chang'an is slowly flourishing according to its rhythm.

The door of the workshop opened with the sound of a drum on Sixth Street, and immediately countless men and women poured out of the gate.

Officials hurried to various government offices. Those who wanted to go out of the city to farm took cattle and carried farm tools to the gate of the city. Those who worked went to the workshops, and countless people went to the East and West Markets...

"Everyone performing their duties is the great governance of the world."

Cui Jian has some insights.

Jia Pingan was rubbing his hands, "How does Brother Cui feel in the Ministry of Industry?"

Cui Jian said: "Very good!"

The two wandered all the way to the outside of the imperial city, and saw a group of people surrounding them, and some people were fighting inside.

"You bitch, how dare you call me Ah Weng?"

The crowd moved away, and Li Jingye's familiar burly body appeared in Jia Pingan's eyes.

There was an official lying in it, his body was still twitching, Jia Ping'an felt relieved.

"What's going on?" Jia Pingan asked.

While moving his arms, Li Jingye seemed a little unsatisfied, "The younger brother was thinking about yesterday's good things, and this guy was walking in front of me, talking to people... Ah Weng is a thief if he is old and not dead, brother, you know The younger brother has a temper, I wanted to reason with him, but I couldn't hold back..."

"Good fight!"

Jia Ping'an's words made Li Jingye overjoyed, "Brother, come back to Pingkangfang, I'll treat you!"

hehe!

Cui Jian blinked, "Xiao Jia probably won't go, he is dedicated to his work, but he likes to sleep on his feet?"

Li Jingye was surprised, "Cui Shilang is also a person in my way?"

Cui Jian said reservedly: "It's just a little gain."

The two old snake skins began to exchange experiences.

Jia Ping'an entered the palace later.

Today, the Ministry of War reported something, but he found that the atmosphere between the prince and the prime ministers was not right.

There seems to be some separation and alienation.

What's the matter, nephew?

Taking advantage of his spare time, Li Yifu smiled and said, "Yang Deli went to Qingzhou, so he should have returned yesterday."

Jia Pingan knew that Yang Deli went to Gyeongju to investigate the follow-up impact of the flood, but this matter has something to do with the prince?

The prince said: "Gu still thinks that matters related to people's livelihood and national policy should be investigated before making a decision."

Was it for this?

Jia Ping stepped forward.

In an instant, the empress frowned.

This kid is going to make a move!

Alarm bells rang in Li Yifu's heart.

Xu Jingzong coughed dryly, "Xiao Jia has something to say?"

This joke is very powerful.

Jia Pingan said: "Your Highness's words are very true. There is a new saying that there is no right to speak without investigation. Sooner or later, the decision-making of the brain will lead to mistakes. Your Highness is wise!"

There was more emotion in the prince's eyes.

Li Yifu sneered.

"Your Majesty, please see Yang Yushi when he returns to court."

...

Cousin is back, let's welcome a wave of monthly tickets.

Good night!
