Zhao Xun was holding a document in his hand, and he sat there with a stunned expression.

Just now, someone from the palace reported that Li Mancang and Li Xun's father and son entered the palace and asked Zhao Zhi for their guilt, Li Mancang beat Li Xun in front of Li Yi, and then, Li Yi met Zhao Zhi and pleaded for Li Xun.

Zhao Xun put down the paperwork in his hand, looked down, and said to Li Zhongquan: "This matter is weird, what do you think?" ”

Zhao Xun has already written the document, ready to send it to the political affairs hall today, after the government affairs hall signed by the prime ministers, immediately form an order to issue, the content of the document is related to Li Xun, remove Li Xun from the post of left servant of the military department, to participate in the post of governor, transferred to Lingnan dethroned envoy, to govern Xizhou.

Li Zhongquan said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Prince, this is actually nothing, Li Xun has been too flamboyant recently, and someone in the court has begun to impeach him, and the matter has reached Li Mancang's ears, he was afraid, and pulled Li Xun into the palace to ask for guilt, and asked Li Guifei to intercede for him, which is very reasonable." ”

Qian Mingdu also said: "Your Highness, Li Xun's military power has been taken away, and there is no longer any threat to the capital, so we should not put too much energy on him." ”

Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu glanced at each other, their eyes flickering.

Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu, there was also a Wang Congben before, these three people were the first to follow Zhao Xun's vassals, and they were Zhao Xun's absolute confidants.

Zhao Xun for Li Xun, is not only emotionally estranged, but also the exclusion of power, Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu are full support and firm support for this matter, the reason why Zhao Xun's attitude towards Li Xun is becoming more and more obvious, and the intensity is getting bigger and bigger, has a lot to do with the two of them, if it weren't for Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu's hard work, Zhao Xun would not have thought of transferring Li Xun to the barren land on the edge of Lingnan, at least not so early.

Zhao Xun looked at Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu with some surprise, as long as Li Xun was talked about in the past, the attitude of the two of them was very intense, but today it is very different, and he intends to downplay Li Xun.

Lu Baijiang drank tea, glanced at Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu, and there was a trace of disdain and sneer on his face.

Zhao Xun didn't know, but Lu Baijiang knew it clearly.

Six days ago, Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu were extremely angry about Li Xun's publicity, and they spoke to Zhao Xun several times, and made a lot of nonsense, saying that Li Xun was born from a low background and had a bad heart, and once he took power, he would definitely have no king in his eyes and harm the country.

For this suggestion, Zhao Xun was silent, Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu's comments were too intense, even if he had this idea, he would not dare to do it, after all, he still had to consider some of Concubine Li's feelings.

is different from Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu, but when it comes to Li Xun, Lu Baijiang has never said a word, he understands a truth, he can't leave his relatives, Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu in order to cater to Zhao Xun and get greater benefits, so that they lose their personal principles and do whatever they want, if this continues, sooner or later someone will clean them up, sure enough, the day after the two of them spoke to Zhao Xun, after the court meeting ended, Li Yi called Li Zhongquan, Qian Mingdu, and Lu Baijiang to Changle Palace.

Zhao Xun is very serious in his work, since he was in charge of the country, he often works until late at night, many officials persuade Zhao Xun, hoping that he will take care of his health, and Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu are full of good words and full support for Zhao Xun.

Li Yi used this as an excuse to scold Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu, and praised Lu Baijiang.

After this incident, within two days, Li Yi forced the crown prince Zhao Xun to accept the orders for Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu to enter the palace, and made it clear that it was not a serious matter for the court, and they were not allowed to enter the East Palace casually.

There are so many officials around Zhao Xun, Li Yi is targeting Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu, what is the reason, he is a fool who knows that Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu are certainly not stupid, and immediately thought of the reason, that is, because of Li Xun, the things around Zhao Xun must not be hidden from Li Yi, in order to obtain Zhao Xun's further trust and promotion, he caters to his intentions and strongly targets Li Xun, obviously, Zhao Xun's actions to Li Xun, Li Yi recorded all the accounts on the heads of Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu.

Zhao Xun obviously didn't take Li Xun's matter too seriously, and he then talked to Li Zhongquan and Qian Mingdu about tax innovation and other issues.

After Zhao Zhi succeeded to the throne, the tax system was reformed to a certain extent, and the results were not bad, but now, the current tax system is obviously beyond its strength, and the finances of the imperial court are getting worse and worse, if it were not for Li Xun to take the Western Regions, the imperial court has obtained a huge amount of money and grain from the Western Regions, and the financial affairs of the imperial court may have collapsed, although it can continue to obtain a considerable amount of money and grain from the Western Regions in the future, but this is not a long-term solution after all, if you want to completely change the financial status of the imperial court, as far as the current tax system is concerned, The time has come for reform.

Zhao Xun inherited Zhao Zhi's ambition, reused the Hanmen clan, suppressed the gate valve family, and balanced the two, so that Zhao Xun's side was overwhelmingly Hanmen Shi clan officials, and many of them were very young, among which there were many talents, which was Zhao Xun's future team for himself.

As for the officials of the gate valve family, Zhao Xun also accepted some people, but for these people, Zhao Xun always held a certain degree of caution, so this kind of official could not enter Zhao Xun's inner circle, but Lu Baijiang was an outsider.

Lu Baijiang was born in a famous family in Jiangnan, and his father Lu Shiming served as the Taishou of Jiangling.

Lu Baijiang is forty and two this year, and it was not until he was thirty-five years old that he entered the official career through the imperial examination, so this person is considered a late bloomer, and as soon as he entered the officialdom, he soon attracted Liu Ji's attention and appreciation.

Before Lu Baijiang did not enter the officialdom, most of the time, he was taking care of the family business, more than ten years of time, going south and north, accumulating a lot of social experience, and having a very thorough understanding of the economic situation at the bottom of the society. But he didn't have the energy and ability to carry it out, so he could only leave this hope to Zhao Xun to complete.
