Xungui, or the sudden attack of the dragon heroes represented by Cheng Yanjin, made everyone unexpected. Li Shimin's face also changed a little, because he knew that these people were the cornerstone of really sending him to the dragon chair, and they were also the hole cards that he could not care about the reaction of the gate valve, they held the military power, Li Shimin also needed them in order to control the millions of male soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, and the gate valve rebellion could be suppressed, but if these people were dissatisfied, it would not be so easy to deal with it.

Changsun Chong's heart also chuckled, now there is no so-called director of the Imperial Property Bureau, only he is the director in charge, Li Mu has also hinted that if he can handle this matter well, the position of director is his. Therefore, Changsun Chong tried his best to improve the plan as much as possible, and strive to achieve something acceptable to all forces, but he only cared about the gate valve clan, but ignored Xungui, his own class, and now Cheng Yanjin stood up, which instantly caught him off guard.

And for Li Shimin, he is more strange. Because in his opinion, Cheng Biting Jin has always been following Li Mu to make a fortune, horse farms, Marseilles, etc., all of which are Li Mu's plans, and Li Mu has not asked for any returns, it can be said that Li Mu is kind to the Cheng family, although Cheng Biting Jin is lazy, but he is not a person who will take revenge, why did he suddenly dismantle Li Mu's platform today? Why don't you discuss this kind of thing privately first?

There's fraud in this!

Li Shimin's intuition smelled the smell of conspiracy, but at this moment, Cheng Yanjin suddenly blinked his eyes imperceptibly. This move was invisible to the people behind him, but Li Shimin and Gao Gonggong could see it.

Both of them immediately understood, Gao Gonggong was afraid that Li Shimin didn't see it, and wanted to lean over to remind him, Li Shimin raised his hand to block it, and Gao Gonggong stood back again, as a cover, and shook the dust in his hand.

Li Shimin calmed down, bowed slightly, and said: "Cheng Aiqing's words really pointed out the drawbacks of this new policy, the military exploits of Juelu are all glorious, and the soldiers are born and die with me, and I must not let them down." Eldest Sun Chong, you are in charge of the Imperial Property Bureau, you are in charge of this matter, you also heard what Cheng Aiqing said, do you have any explanation? ”

The eldest grandson was drenched in cold sweat, stood up and bowed down and said: "Back to Your Majesty, what General Cheng said, no one mentioned it during the discussion, so there is no corresponding plan, and the minister can't answer now, I implore Your Majesty to give a certain amount of time to deliberate." ”

"What?" Cheng Biting Jin's temper came up instantly, and he shouted at the top of his throat: "The boy of the eldest grandson's family, what are you doing to eat!" If no one mentions it, you can't think of it? Ha, if the old man didn't say it today, are you planning to get mixed up with this? No way! If you don't give an explanation today, we old guys with our heads pinned to the waistband of our trousers will never agree! ”

Cheng Yanjin still has some face, and as soon as he said this, many generals immediately stood up and responded. There are people who have a good relationship with him, and there are people who want to fall into the well 'on the other side'. Suddenly, the court was in chaos again.

Wei Zheng watched coldly, and for some reason, he suddenly became nervous. Familiar recipe, familiar taste, this shouldn't be another trick by Li Mu.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Please be silent! This is the Liangyi Palace, how can it be so noisy! Wei Zheng shouted, suppressed everyone's noise, he looked at Li Shimin, and said: "Your Majesty, this matter is very involved, the minister suggests that the Imperial Property Bureau be given three days, and after three days, it will not be too late to discuss it, so let's stop here today." ”

Li Shimin also has this intention, after all, Cheng Biting Jin's appearance is really spicy. But he thought about it, no, the situation at this time should be what Wei Zheng wants to see, he actually wants to suppress the matter, did he think of something?

Cheng Yanjin was also suddenly, Li Mu found him yesterday and hoped that he would come forward to do this, and he rehearsed several times overnight, trying not to make mistakes. For the sake of truth, no one but him was greeted. Therefore, Li Shimin didn't know at all, in case it was suppressed and Li Mu's overall plan was delayed, the 'welfare' that originally belonged to Xungui would be gone. As a person who has a advantage and does not take advantage of it, how can he tolerate this kind of thing happening?

"Your Majesty!" Cheng bit Jin wailed, knelt on the ground, climbed a few steps, approached the dragon chair, and Gao Gonggong subconsciously reached out to stop him, but was blocked by Li Shimin. Li Shimin walked down the steps to help Cheng bite the gold, frowned and said: "What is Zhijie doing, I have said it, I will never treat you badly, you are like this, is there any courtesy?" ”

Cheng Yanjin refused to get up, hugged Li Shimin's thigh, looked up at him, blinked his eyes violently, and said while winking: "Your Majesty, the minister just feels wronged!" These days, the ministers in the court, always listen to what the door valve, the big family, but I don't see a single person for us rough people to say a word, the Tang Dynasty, but not they were beaten down by these civil ministers, that is our rough people in exchange for their lives, Your Majesty, the old minister is unwilling...... If you can't give an explanation today, Your Majesty will let Lao Cheng return to the field, it's cold! ”

When a group of people who joined in the excitement saw this, they all cried and cried. Wei Zheng repeatedly signaled them not to do this, but no one listened to him, but gave him a look and made him add a fire.

Seeing that the situation was out of control, Li Shimin said helplessly: "Okay! I will explain to you that Changsun Chong has no countermeasures for this matter, so I will find Li Mu! Gao Gan, go find Li Mu here! After that, he said to the ministers: "Li Mu lives outside the city, and he has ...... all of you Aiqing and others."

"Your Majesty," Gao Gonggong just left and returned, and whispered: "But there is no need to wait, the old slave asked the eunuch on duty, and the Hou of Zhulu has just entered the palace." ”

Li Shimin frowned and said, "Why is he in the palace, didn't I ask him not to come to the court?" ”

"Didn't you want a few sets of copper pots, Zhuluhou sent them, and now I'm talking to the queen in the Lizheng Palace."

How can there be such a coincidence!

Li Shimin can finally determine that today's incident must have been caused by Li Mu. Wei Zheng also heard it, smiled bitterly, and understood in his heart that the general trend had gone, and when he looked back, he still didn't know what was going on, and a group of brain-dead people who were still coaxing were instantly self-contained, and they didn't even want to open their mouths.

"Go and call him."

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he dragged Cheng Yanjin up, Cheng Yanjin heard that Li Mu was already here, and he didn't bother to play again, wiped his face, and stood back in his position.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the little eunuch came over with Li Mu. But when he arrived at the gate of the palace, Li Mu refused to come in, and shouted far away: "Your Majesty, the minister is here, is there something wrong?" ”

"What are you doing standing at the door, come in and talk back!"

"No, Your Majesty, didn't you say yesterday that the ministers stirred up the court and asked the ministers not to come to the court, and the ministers did not dare to disobey His Majesty's will——"

Li Shimin gritted his teeth and said: "If you sell well again, I will beat you up to Jin Wuwei!" ”

"Okay!" Li Mu ran into the hall, saw Wei Zheng, grinned, ran over, came to the hall to stand still, and saluted: "What does Your Majesty command?" ”

Cheng Aiqing raised a question, what are the arrangements for Jue Lutian and military merit fields in this new policy? As I just said, I must not treat these heroes who were born and died with me. I asked Changsun Chong, and Changsun Chong said that the Imperial Property Bureau had never discussed, isn't it ridiculous? ”

"Didn't you deliberate?" Li Mu's face was full of surprise, looked at the eldest grandson Chong, and said, "Didn't you discuss?" ”

The eldest grandson Chong's face was full of shame, and he said, "Teacher, the apprentice is not thoughtful, and he has embarrassed his teacher. ”

"This ......" In the process of Li Mu turning around, he secretly blinked his eyes, Cheng Biting Jin understood, stepped out, grabbed Li Mu's neck, and said angrily: "Okay, you Li Mu, don't treat me as a person, how can the old man spare you!" ”

was about to fight, but everyone around him hurriedly stopped him, and it took a long time to 'rescue' Li Mu.

At this time, Li Mu was embarrassed, his good clothes were torn, how could he still look like a beautiful son. Looking at Li Mu's appearance, Wei Zheng muttered in his heart again, isn't it Li Mu's conspiracy? Is it really a turnaround?

Li Mu jumped to his feet and said: "Okay, you puppet, I call you uncle, and you still want to beat me?" Okay, count you as good, you beat me, I'll beat your son, you wait, I'll beat me when I get down, I'll ......"

"Shut up!"

Li Shimin couldn't bear it anymore, so he asked Jin Wuwei to separate the two, and the two looked at one and didn't let them quarrel anymore.

"Li Mu, I'm asking you how to deal with it, I don't want to see you messing around, hurry up and give me a solution, otherwise I will put you all in prison, kill you and eat a few days in prison!"

"Ministers will never eat prison food!" Li Mu shouted, as if he was forced to be in a hurry, and suddenly said: "Yes, the minister has a way to deal with it!" ”

Li Shimin made a tiger face: "Say!" ”

"Since the New Deal has moved the jobs of the gate valve clan, then if you don't move the nobles, it's obviously not very fair-"

Cheng Biting Jin roared: "You dare to try!" ”

"You say or I say! If you don't, I won't say it! Li Mu glared and roared back, Li Shimin frowned and looked at Cheng Yanjin, and said: "Cheng Aiqing, say it one by one, after he finished, if you have anything to disagree with, you can bring it up again." ”

Cheng Yanjin snorted and stopped talking. Li Mu continued: "However, just like the reform mentioned earlier, we have to say a truth in everything. moved the door valve's rice bowl, according to the Tang law, they broke the law, took what they shouldn't take, and didn't pay taxes, so they had to move. As for military merits and knighthood, there is no question of whether it should be or not, because military merits and knighthood cannot be faked. ”

"There is a folk proverb that says: learn to become a literary and martial artist, and sell it to the emperor's family. It can be seen that in the hearts of the people, their literary and martial arts are like goods, and they should get a suitable price. Nothing to say, it's a matter of course. Military merits and knighthood, we might as well think about it like this and give a suitable price. Since it is sold to the emperor's family, it is necessary for the imperial property bureau to pay for it, and it will not be denied. ”

"The minister hears that military merits are divided into equals, so you might as well use this as a proof, and the rewards that can be obtained are different for different levels of military merits. The small one will reward the money, the medium will reward the land, and the large one can be selected. But at the same time, there is also a problem that the calculation of military merits is not very regular, and there is no fixed standard, so the minister suggested that the military department should come up with a unified charter as soon as possible, so that the Imperial Property Bureau can calculate the rewards due according to different standards. ”

After Li Shimin heard this, he bowed his head slightly, and said: "This statement is reasonable-" Before he could finish speaking, Cheng Yanjin shouted again, and said: "Accounting is up to you, but the old man is asking about the land, how do you say about this land?" ”

Li Mu Zhengse said: "After the standard comes out, according to the amount of military merit accumulated, there is nothing to say about the more refunds and less compensation." It's still the same sentence, what you shouldn't get, you can't occupy it, and what you deserve, the Imperial Property Bureau will also give a lot of points! ”

Li Jing, who had never participated in the debate, suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Zhuluhou, the old man has a question, please solve your doubts." ”

Li Jing opened his mouth, who dared not take it seriously, Li Mu immediately said: "General, please speak." ”

"If this military merit field and Juelu field are equal to the ration field, or if it is equal to the rented field, do you need to pay taxes?"

Li Jing's meaning is very clear, he is asking whether this military merit field is returned to the field after death, and according to what standard is the tax collected. Because of the current situation, both the military merit field and the jue lu field are also taxed, but relatively little.

Li Mu pondered for a moment and said: "Depending on the situation, the military merit field is obtained according to the military merit, and the military merit field can be accumulated, and the military merit field should naturally be cumulative." In addition, the acquisition of military merits often requires soldiers to fight for their lives, which is extremely risky, and it is very likely that after the first war, their lives will not be guaranteed. Therefore, we should 'follow the father after the death of the son', and 'the son will support his relatives after the death of the son', so that the blood of the soldiers will not be shed in vain. However, such an inheritance can only take place once, and it cannot be continued after the death of the Father and the Son. After the death of a son and the maintenance of his relatives, it shall not be given to his brothers and sisters, etc., because this military merit has nothing to do with them, and it shall not breed idleness. As for taxes, military merit fields may not be taxed, nor can they be subject to public rations. ”

"As for Jue Lutian, the ministers thought that they should be 'demoted with the lord', and in order to show their merits, they could not pay taxes, but they should receive public grain." Li Mu stretched out a hand and said, "Fifty percent of the public grain." ”

Someone objected, saying: "Zhulu Marquis, can you explain why Jue Lutian wants to collect public grain?" Although the public grain is often closed and purchased, it is not paid in vain, but I don't want to sell it? What's the difference? ”

"That's a good question!" Li Mu said with a smile: "The difference lies in the risk, the military merit field is a fight for life, and most of the people who have made military merits are ordinary soldiers, their wealth is limited, and it is understandable to leave food and wait for it to be sold when the price is high." But those who have a title will have a surplus in their family, and their property is closely related to their title, and their title is given by His Majesty. The way to obtain it is not necessarily in exchange for life, but it may also be inherited, and the risk is much smaller. Closing positions is the fundamental policy, for the sake of the country, people with titles do not support, who will support it? ”

"That's right!" Li Shimin took over and said, "I don't give you and you to breed laziness. It's for encouragement, and these arrangements that Li Mu said are exactly what I want. ”

When Wei Zheng heard this, he finally completely understood Li Mu's plan. Originally, the New Deal was still entangled in the Tang Law, and Wei Zheng could still control the speed of the implementation of the New Deal on the basis of the amendment of the law. But now, being so stirred up by Cheng Yanjin, he went around all of a sudden, and began to discuss the substance, and when everything was discussed, if he wanted to delay, there was no reason to delay!
