"How dare the last general deceive the saints! If the saints do not give up, the last generals are willing to dance for the saints!" An Lushan hurriedly bowed his head and bowed.

Li Longji looked at him and suddenly smiled: "Okay!"

An Lushan hurriedly raised his head, and with a strong support of his two thick arms, his fat body stood up sensitively.

When the strings started again, An Lushan danced solo in the hall.

Don't look at An Lushan's stubby limbs and big belly, when the dance steps are together, the fat body also rotates quickly. I saw An Lushan standing on tiptoe, his body rotating at high speed, and his fat belly was thrown out with the rotation, and he desperately made a funny expression on his face, just trying to make the emperor laugh.

When Li Longji saw it, he laughed heartily and said, "I didn't expect An Qing to have such a unique skill!"

At the end of the song, An Lushan stopped panting, and replied respectfully: "As long as the saint is happy, the last general wishes to dance every day for the saint to watch!"

"Haha! If that's the case, who will garrison the frontier for me?" Li Longji laughed, and the slightest displeasure seemed to have vanished.

The banquet was slowly going on in this dance and music.

Although Xu Fan was anxious, he had already smoothed out the edges and corners of the year, and he was still pushing the cup with a smile on his face.

It was easy to wait until the banquet was over, An Lushan retreated, and Xu Fan hurriedly stopped Li Longji, who was still drunk: "Holy Lord, the minister has something important to play!"

"Let's discuss it tomorrow morning!" Li Longji said with his tongue wide open, and after speaking, he was about to bypass Xu Fan and leave.

"Holy Lord, it's a big deal, I can't wait for tomorrow!" Xu Fan had no choice but to stretch out his hand and grab Li Longji and said urgently.

Li Longji said helplessly: "Okay, good! Say! Tell me something!"

Xu Fan immediately said: "Please also ask the saint to retreat!"

The impatience on Li Longji's face became heavier and heavier, and he was about to reprimand a few words, but when he saw Xu Fan's solemn face, he had to sigh and wave his hand.

Yang Yuhuan, who was beside him, saw it, and hurriedly said, "The concubine will retire first!"

After a while, only Li Longji and Xu Fan were left in the Hanyuan Palace.

"Now that there is no one, what can I say!" Li Longji sat back in his seat and said to Xu Fan with a straight face.

"Holy Lord, the spring tax in the south has not been collected, and now the treasury is about to be empty!" Time was pressing, and Xu Fan said in a surprising voice as soon as he came up.

"What?" As soon as Li Longji heard this, most of his alcohol faded.

Xu Fan hurriedly handed the account book sent by the household department to Li Longji, Li Longji hurriedly took it, turned directly to the last page, and after reading those thin numbers, he trembled, how could he still be half drunk!

"How can this be? How did you do this?" Li Longji shouted.

"The minister is incompetent, please forgive the saint!" Xu Fan said calmly.

Li Longji looked at the account book again, waved his hand, and said, "That's it! It's only been a few days since the household department was in your hands! This matter can't be relied on on you!"

"Why can't the spring tax in the south be collected? Is it because the local county guards don't care?" asked Li Longji.

"Returning to the Holy Shrine, this matter has nothing to do with the county guards in various places, but it is actually because the farmers in the south missed the agricultural time and led the fields to be barren, so there is no grain to pay!" Xu Fan replied.

"If they miss the agricultural time? It is the duty of the peasants to cultivate the land and cultivate the land, so how could they miss the time? Could it be that they don't have to eat? If it is better to say that there is one city and one land, don't the peasants in the whole south farm the land?"

"Say! What happened to the south? Was it a natural disaster or a man-made disaster? If the peasants don't farm the land, what are these county guards doing to eat? Isn't it their duty to persuade the peasants to teach the peasants?"

The more Li Longji spoke, the more angry he became, and when he said the back, fortunately he stood up, waved the account book in his hand, and roared loudly.

Xu Fan raised his head, looked directly at Li Longji, and said calmly: "Because they are all busy frying the land!"

"What, what are you doing?" asked Li Longji.

"Since the beginning of the first month, the price of land in the south has risen wildly, rising to tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and many people have made a profit because of this, and the peasants have also invested in it after seeing the profits, and have the opportunity to get rich overnight.

When Xu Fan said this, his eyes were fixed on Li Longji.

Li Longji understood the meaning of Xu Fan's words, and suddenly lost confidence in his heart, so he didn't pursue it, so he had to say gloomily: "Say it! What should I do?"

"For now, we can only order the county guards in the south to rush to plant grain to ensure that the autumn tax is worry-free, and then secretly send people to various places to buy grain. Obviously, this year's grain is not enough, so that the fighting in several places along the border must be stopped, and grain must be saved for one's own use! The key is that the news must be blocked! Not a single leak must be leaked, otherwise if the big households and grain merchants learn about it, the hoarding will certainly happen, and the grain price will be frighteningly high at that time. If the people can't eat food, the people's hearts will be chaotic, and once the people's hearts are in turmoil, the world will be ......."

Xu Fan's words were not finished, but Li Longji's reaction was not slow to this point.

The sound of "trance" sounded, but Li Longji's mind was dizzy, his body was unstable, and he sat on the desk, and the cups and plates used for the banquet were spilled all over the ground.

"Quick...... Hurry up and figure it out! You...... You are a planner, you can't escape this!" Li Longji stretched out his finger and pointed at Xu Fan, and said in a trembling tone.

"It's my responsibility!" Xu Fanzheng said.

Li Longji saw that Xu Fan responded, and his heart seemed to be relieved, and he nodded and said: "Do it! Just do it! If you have any requirements, just mention it! Except for money and food, I can give you anything!"

"The saint is serious, and he worries about the responsibility of the courtiers for the king's share! Besides, thirty years ago, the minister refused the title of the saint, and the minister still doesn't care about the saint's reward!" Xu Fan's mouth rose and he laughed softly.

Li Longji seemed to be reminded of the past, looking at Xu Fan's face that was already wrinkled, but his eyes were still clear, and said heavily: "Zhiyuan!

Xu Fan said with a smile: "Rest assured, the ministers will do their best!"

Li Longji looked at this courtier, who was once his friend, and the long-standing friendship in his heart seemed to have returned to him, and then he smiled and said: "Not bad! As long as we join forces, there will be no enemy that cannot be defeated!"

Xu Fan saw that Li Longji was reinvigorated, and he was also delighted: "As long as there is a saint, Datang will not be able to cross!"

"Hmm!" Li Longji nodded heavily and said, "Go down and make an excerpt, write down what to do, and turn it back and present it to me!"

"Minister, obey the order!" Xu Fan bowed.

Xu Fan immediately went out of the Hanyuan Hall and saw the anxious Gao Lishi waiting outside the hall, Gao Lishi only heard the emperor's loud roar in the main hall, and the crisp sound of the cup and plate falling to the ground, but he didn't know anything about the things in the hall. If it weren't for the fact that he and Xu Fan had known each other for many years, he knew that he would never be harmful to the emperor, and he was afraid that he would have rushed in with his sword a long time ago.

Now as soon as he saw Xu Fan come out, he hurriedly greeted him: "Xu Xiang, what's wrong?"

Xu Fanzheng wanted to say a few words, but heard that in the Hanyuan Palace, Li Longji was calling loudly: "Where is General Gao!"

Gao Lishi had no choice but to hurriedly bid farewell to Xu Fan and walked into the hall.

After Gao Lishi left, Xu Fan walked straight towards the rest of the palace people, but stopped in front of one person, it was Sun Desheng!

"The slave talked about Xiangye!" "In the palace, Sun Desheng is not easy to admit his relationship with Xu Fan.

Xu Fan nodded and whispered, "Come to my house as much as you can!"

After speaking, Xu Fan turned around and left.

The rest of the palace people had already turned around and turned a blind eye to this scene.

Sun Desheng glanced at Xu Fan's back, and was uneasy, just at this time Li Longji's call came from the hall, Sun Desheng had no choice but to suppress the doubts in his heart and walk into the hall.

A few hours later, Sun Desheng changed into civilian clothes, put a fake beard on his lips, and after receiving Xu Chen's guidance, he also smeared a lot of paint on his white and tender face, which was yellow and yellow, not much different from ordinary old men.

Sun Desheng entered Xu Fan's mansion through the side door and saw Xu Fan in the study.

"I don't know what Mr. is looking for me?" asked Sun Desheng directly as soon as he entered the door.

Xu Fan looked at him, smiled slightly, and asked, "I went to Yuzhang a few months ago, how much money did that stinky boy help you make?"

"Huh?" Sun Desheng looked at Xu Fan in surprise, but he was thinking about the deep meaning of the other party's words.

"Just tell the truth!" Xu Fan's deep eyes can see through all of Sun Desheng's thoughts.

Sun Desheng thought for a moment, and when Mr. asked this question, he must have known that he could not only earn the meagre three million yuan that he brought back to the palace. However, whether to tell the truth or not, I really thought about it for a while, after all, this matter is really a bit rebellious, once the incident happens, how can the Holy One spare them.

"Okay! Don't use your brain! I still know the ability of that stinky boy, I don't care how much you took this time, after all, as a palace person, you don't have a pensioner when you are old, so it's good to keep more money!"

"Put my heart in my stomach, even if it's not for you, I have to think about that stinky boy, right? The money in your hands should still be in the hands of that stinky boy, right?

Xu Fan smiled and said with relief.

At this point, Sun Desheng had no choice but to smile bitterly and said: "It's not that I want to expire Mr., it's really our ...... this time."

"Take a bit too much?" Xu Fan asked with a smile.

"It's okay, just say it! copper coins, I've seen a lot of them with the stinky boy!"

Sun Desheng had no choice but to say: "I earned more than 20 million yuan this time, and what I got back was only a fraction!"

Xu Fan was not surprised, and just nodded calmly after listening.

"That's fine! Now the court is in trouble, you"
