In Wu Mei's palace, Wu Mei was looking at Li Zhi dumbfounded, and her eyebrows fluttered to tell her about the reaction of the courtiers in the court when she appointed Li Hong as the head of the household today.

"Yes, that's right, it's almost the same as the queen's expression, today I know what is called the appearance of all beings, and the officials in the court have demonstrated it to me solidly. But don't say it, the queen, many of them still agree with Li Hong as the head of the household. On the basis of what Li Hong has done in recent years, supporters violently attacked opponents, especially those glasses, crystals, refined salt, refined sugar, etc., believing that Li Hong is fully qualified for the post of secretary of the household department. Li Zhi was very satisfied with the reaction of the officials in the court today, the only surprise was that the supporters still accounted for the majority, and he thought that it would be half and half.

"Why don't you appoint him as the secretary of the military department!" Wu Mei said angrily.

There is another sentence that she didn't say, that is, after appointing Li Hong as the secretary of the military department, in a few years, you can retire with your concubine in the Daming Palace that is being built behind you!

As soon as Li Zhi has a happy event or a delicate moment, he will always react half a beat slowly, and say to the queen with a straight face: "That's not good, now Li Hong is still young, let's go a few years." I can't hold on to my skin for a day or two, and I can't sleep for a day or two. In the past few years, let him hone himself in the household department, and when he matures in a few years and has a stable temperament, I can rest assured that he will also be the ...... of the military department. ”

"Your Majesty......!" Wu Mei couldn't hide the dissatisfaction in her tone and said: "You also know that his temperament is unstable, you are now handing over the financial power of Datang to him, do you think he can do it?" Let's not talk about anything else, just the virtue of three changes at that moment, you let the people of the world still have a peaceful life? The household department has always been in charge of the courtiers, and the concubine dares to bet with you, he must be focused on this aspect now, and he will definitely think about how to toss the courtiers with Yulu! ”

"No, although I know my son Mo Ruomu, but Hong'er also grew up under my watch, although she is usually a little stubborn, but she won't make much mistakes in political affairs. Look at his Taiyi City, when it was first built, it was built with me in three chapters, and I was not allowed to ask or help, now you see, Taiyi City is crowded every day, merchants from all over the world are flocking in, and a large amount of money enters Taiyi City every day. ”

Wu Mei sighed and said patiently: "That's because he likes money, tell me, do you know how much money he has earned over the years?" Don't tell me, the rebuilding of Daming Palace, he put all the money he earned into it? The concubine still dares to bet with you that the money he funded you to build the Daming Palace is probably just a drop in the bucket of the money he has made over the years! I can't say, but now the little things with a lot of money can build a palace! You're still handing over the household to him, can this little thing see anything else? ”

Wu Mei angrily counted Li Zhi, just like the wife of an ordinary family, counting her husband, Wu Mei frowned and asked again: "Are there other Shangshu in the household department?" ”

Li Zhi spread his hands and said innocently: "No, since Liu Renliang sent troops to Baekje, the post of secretary of the criminal department has been vacant, and today Cui Zhiwen, the former secretary of the household department, has been appointed as the secretary of the criminal department." ”

Wu Mei felt that the general trend had gone, sighed helplessly, and prayed in her heart that Li Hong could really do what Li Zhi wished, and just take charge of the household department without seeking merit but without fault.

Wu Mei's worries were not unreasonable, after Li Hong heard the news, he was stunned for less than half an hour, and then found the joy of being a household secretary.

Originally, I thought that many things would need to wait until I ascended the throne, or a few years later before I could rectify them. But now that there is an opportunity in the sky, some of the shortcomings that I summarized in my spare time, about the Datang Juntian system, the government military system, and the management of commercial taxes and household registration, can be slowly corrected one by one.

Except for the government military system, everything else is within the scope of the household department's authority, and this is a good opportunity that he can't ask for.

But Li Hong also knows that whether it is the tax law of the uniform land system or the "rent adjustment", the existence is reasonable, not to mention that the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty is also closely related to this.

The difference is that the annexation of private ownership of land and the gradual increase in the population of the Tang Dynasty caused a huge conflict between the two, and there were more and more people, and the land that the state could grant to each other was less and less because of the annexation of private ownership, which led to the destruction of the equalization system.

According to his own ideas, Li Hong began to eliminate them step by step, and those signs of possible shortcomings in the future, whether it was the uniform land system or the rent adjustment, Li Hong did not plan to make a big move now.

All he has to do is make these systems more rational in 10 or even 20 years.

If we want to rationalize all problems, we need to start from one foundation, that is, the improvement of population and household registration system will be the keynote of rationalization of all problems.

Improving the household registration system is all fundamental, Li Hong thought about this matter for a long time, and wanted to plug the loopholes in the household registration system at this time, I am afraid that his head is not enough, but someone is definitely an expert in this area.

That is Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu, who have always understood how to govern people with people and know how to schem and be good at power.

So Li Hong waved his hand, and Xu Jingzong, who had just come to the East Palace, and Li Yifu, in addition to usually repairing books, were studying the defects and advantages of the household registration system.

As for the commercial tax of thirty taxes and one in this period, Li Hong chose to start with his own Taiyi City first, and gradually began to increase taxes, as for how much to change, this requires Shangguan Yi, Guo Yu, Xu Yushi and others to cooperate with Bai Chun.

Using the new math that they are now very familiar with, they make a new generalization and statistics with the Arallah numbers.

Li Hong has a perfect future in his heart, with Chang'an and Luoyang as the center, radiating the economic center of the entire north, Luoyang connects the north and south waterways, which is naturally the top priority.

Chang'an, on the other hand, can rely on Taiyi City to form a combination of traditional commerce and emerging commerce, complementing each other with Luoyang to form a real economic circle.

Qian Zhuang has been put on his agenda, after all, with the development of Taiyi City's economy, it will naturally give birth to this earliest flying money among businessmen, and if he doesn't launch it first, when the private businessmen spontaneously launch it, it will be easy to meddle and it will be difficult to take over.

It's better to be the first to launch it now, and then slowly expand along with the caravan.

Therefore, the Chamber of Commerce has also formed in his head, and the North and South Chamber of Commerce plus the general chamber of commerce in Taiyi City will always let businessmen who live for profit be willing to join in.

While sitting on the chair, he kept his saliva and smiled, the perfect blueprint of the business empire seemed to have been formed in his mind, and now he could lie on the credit book and enjoy it.

No, Xia Zhi's voice and jade hand disturbed his foolish dream: "Your Highness, Lord Xu and Master Li ask you if you have any other instructions?" ”

"Oh, I'm sorry, I was stuck just now, I thought too much about it last night." Li Hong came to his senses with his saliva, looked at Li Yifu who came out of Dali Temple, and said, "I haven't seen you for this time, and Yifu has lost a lot of weight." ”

"Your Highness Lao is concerned, and the minister's health is acceptable." Li Yifu obviously hadn't gone home yet, and he didn't know where he was casually pouring down, shaving, changing his clothes, and running over.

"It's good to come out, it's okay today, just give you three days off, rest at home, and come back in three days." Li Hong looked at Li Yifu with a smile, but said in his heart: "I don't know what Li Yifu's expression will be when he knows that his daughter and son-in-law are killed." ”

"Yes, thank you for your concern." Li Yifu stood up and saluted.

This "trip" to Dali Temple, so that Li Yifu has become not as sharp as before, although the iconic gentle smile, and the wise and deep eyes are still the same, but the momentum always feels a little rounder, it seems more dangerous.

"Lord Xu, as for the matter of repairing the book, you still need to communicate more with Mr. Shangguan, but fortunately, there is no hurry, and you still need to be calm when it comes to benefiting the country and the people. As for what you said to Mr. Shangguan that there are not enough people to repair the book, I think you can recruit some of them, the eunuchs in the palace who serve the province, those who should be on duty, and those who are not on duty can follow along with the study and practice. ”

Li Hong is sloppy, now the East Palace can use this little manpower, if you want to really reserve talents, it will take many years.

But Li Hong didn't know that his temporary method of playing sloppy had become an important pillar of Datang for hundreds of years to come.

So much so that the eunuchs in the palace have become an important part of the teaching force of the Tang Dynasty for many years, which not only avoids the peerless problem that has plagued the eunuchs since the past dynasties.

Moreover, the eunuchs, the product of the Chinese nation that has continued to exist for thousands of years, have become the backbone of the Tang Dynasty.

Because of this group, after losing the enjoyment of humanity and so on, but because of Li Hong's temporary decision to let them study and practice at the same time, in the following decades, too many Hongru universities appeared.

They have abandoned the fame and fortune and impetuousness that ordinary people should have, but it is easier than normal people to climb to the peak in the ocean of knowledge. In the following decades, this group of people from the province contributed too many surprises to Li Zhi and Li Hong in terms of invention and creation, pioneering and innovation.

Hua Meng quietly walked in and whispered in Li Hong's ear: "Prince, the sting and cheetah are back, and they said that Helan Minzhi had returned to Chang'an City yesterday. Today I will go to Qujiang Pond to play. ”

"Oh, that's pretty fast." Li Hong blinked in surprise and hurriedly ended the meeting with Xu Jingzong and the others.

Watching Xu Jingzong and the others leave, Li Hong began to think about the information behind this news, Helan Minzhi is back, his father and mother must know, but why don't they let him follow Wushun and them back to their hometown, how can this guy still run to Qujiangchi to play like a child!

"What's going on in Qujiangchi today?" Li Hong asked Hua Meng.

"Prince, today is the students of Guozijian and Hongwenguan, as well as the newly arrived students of the Tang Dynasty who are sent by the Japanese State to meet in Qujiangchi." Hua Meng said.

"Damn, such a good thing is so much of my business? Let's go, let's see. Summer solstice, take my skateboard, let's go play together. Li Hong jumped down from his chair, intending to join in the fun.
