Shiratori Tomokako is not in a hurry, she needs the imperial army to go far, which will take a certain amount of time.

She smiled, "No problem, I'm sure you'll figure it out." ”

Then, she said: "You can live here with peace of mind, take care of your body, and I will come to accompany you when it's okay." ”

Since learning about the conspiracy of the rebellion of Bai Tori Zhikako and others, Li Ke has already developed a sense of fear for her in his heart, and he no longer has that desire for her body, but he didn't dare to show it, and said:

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

Fortunately, Tomokako Shiratori really has no interest in accompanying him. Otherwise, through the changes in Li Ke's mood, you will be able to know his true thoughts.

Liu Wenzhong, commander of the 35th Cavalry Division, a confidant of Changsun Shunde, deliberately postponed the departure time of his troops in accordance with Changsun Shunde's strategy, so that the marching sequence of his troops was ranked last.

After leaving Luoyang Baili, Liu Wenzhong marched the main force at night in Shengchi County and quietly returned to the military camp in Luoyang City.

The Tang army troops that came out of Chang'an City, the vanguard of the 36th Cavalry Division, passed through Meixian County and were about to march towards Chencang City, when Du He personally came over and ordered to stop advancing.

Soon after, the various departments left a small number of troops, led by the deputy of each department, and continued to advance towards Chencang with great fanfare, and the main force quietly turned north to Linyou County, and ten days later, they quietly appeared in the mountains and forests of Mengjin County, north of Luoyang.

Li Su was also playing a trick to hide from the sky and the sea, and the main force of the Tang Army did not go to the front line at all.

Both sides of the game are now waiting. The taste of waiting is the hardest.

Time is very unfavorable for Li Su, and the eldest grandson Shunde and others will not dare to launch a rebellion if they can't wait for the main force of the Tang Army to go far.

However, the main force of the Tang Army was hiding from the sky and the sea, and the scale was so large, it was extremely difficult to hide it for a long time.

Li Su must force the eldest grandson Shunde and others to move in a short period of time.

The Great Dynasty Meeting, the main hall of the Taiji Palace.

The Great Court Meeting is usually held at the end of each month, and this meeting is held temporarily, and all the officials above the fifth rank of the imperial court and the lords above the marquis level in Chang'an City participate in this court meeting.

Today's court meeting smelled strange as soon as it came up.

As soon as they entered the main hall, many ministers found a long-lost figure - the current Yiyang Sima Chu Suiliang.

The pilgrimage began.

Li Su said: "Today's court meeting will discuss the land issue of the imperial court. First of all, the Ministry of Land will report on the national land census. ”

Wang Huanxing, Minister of Land, first read out the results of the national land census. Then he said:

"Your Majesty, in the process of land census this time, there have been many cases of fraud and concealment of true land data. The minister suggested that the supervision department be dispatched to conduct a strict investigation. ”

Chu Suiliang came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, the minister impeached Sun Shunde, the head of Pi Guoxiang, during his tenure as the commander of the Luoyang Military Region, instructed the Luoyang local government to take advantage of the opportunity of moving the narrow township to the wide township to engage in fraud for personal gain and covet a large amount of land in the country. ”

The relocation of narrow townships to wide townships refers to the fact that in the process of implementing the equalization system, the imperial court will move some people from "narrow" townships with less land to "wide" townships with more land. to ensure that the new population is increased and the amount of land specified in the land equalization system is obtained.

Residents who have migrated out of the "narrow" township have to sell off their households in the original place, and the original land must be handed over, and then they will go to the new "wide" township and receive the new land.

Chu Suiliang found that officials in many areas were doing tricks and tricks in it, colluding with the families or those big landlords to falsely report the population, and not only obtained land in the "wide" township, but also did not hand over the land in the original "narrow" township.

Officials took bribes, and the land of the imperial court fell into the hands of the family, or some large landowners.

Chu Suiliang pointed out that there was still a lot of land that fell into the hands of relatives of the eldest grandson, Shunde.

Wu Yu said: "Your Majesty, during the period when the ministers cooperated with the Land Department to conduct land surveys, they also found a lot of similar situations, and some court officials colluded with the clan to swallow up a large amount of court land. ”

Li Su was furious and said: "The population of the imperial court has surged, and the implementation of the equalization system is already very difficult, and many people cannot get land.

The imperial court expanded its territory and sacrificed so many soldiers in exchange for land, and it was actually greedy for ink by these moths by them, and they really deserved to be killed.

Immediately send someone to send the elder Sun Shunde back to Chang'an, explain the problem clearly, and if there is indeed an illegal act, it must be dealt with strictly. ”

Wei Zheng said: "Your Majesty, according to the data of the Ministry of Land, a large amount of land is in the hands of a few people, they are not engaged in production, and a lot of land is wasted.

However, the vast number of ordinary people did not have land for cultivation, and this phenomenon seriously hindered the economic development of the imperial court, and the minister suggested that land reform should be carried out. ”

After Wei Zheng finished speaking, many ministers came out to echo him.

Li Dan came out of the class and said: "The minister is the minister of the imperial court, and he has received a generous salary every month, and the imperial court has given the minister 1,200 acres of fiefdom, and the minister is willing to hand it over to the imperial court." ”

Li Dan took the lead, and many people also expressed their intention to hand over the fiefdom.

Li Su said happily: "Okay, all Aiqing understands the righteousness and understands the difficulties of the imperial court.

Here, I also stated that all my princes canceled their fiefs and received them instead.

As for the matter of land reform, as Ning Zhi took the lead, with the cooperation of the Ministry of Land and the Royal Interior Investigation Bureau, a specific land reform plan was come up with, submitted to Zhongshu Province, and then discussed and implemented by the court meeting. ”

Yu Ningzhi, Wang Huanxing and Wu Cong said: "The ministers obey the order. ”

At the court meeting, Li Su deliberately announced that he would track down the matter of Changsun Shunde and the news that he was going to carry out land reform.

The henchmen of the eldest grandson Shunde, who participated in the court meeting, as well as the children of the various gate valve clans, quickly sent the news out of Chang'an.

Soon, the eldest grandson Shunde received the news, and he hurriedly called the white bird Zhixiangzi.

The eldest grandson Shunde said: "Madam, things have changed, but I didn't expect that a Chu Suiliang suddenly appeared, and he impeached me at the court meeting.

The emperor has issued an order to summon me back to Chang'an, and once I return to Chang'an, I'm afraid it will be difficult to come out. If not, let's do it in advance. ”

Bai Tori Zhikako said: "Now the army of the imperial court has not gone far, I think so, if someone from the imperial court finds you, you will call him sick and delay him for a few more days."

As long as the army of the imperial court can have a 20-day journey, after we raise the army, they will receive a notice and return, at least for more than a month, so that the time is enough.

Now the army that set off from Chang'an City has been set off for 14 days, so you can delay it for another six days, and we will start on time after six days. ”

The eldest grandson Shunde nodded and said, "That's it." ”

Bai Bird Zhikako said: "I will send people to infiltrate Chang'an, and together with the soldiers here, they will assassinate the minister in Chang'an City, and assassinate Li Su when they have the opportunity to create chaos." ”
