PS: Changed the political envoy to the transit envoy.

Li Yibai said, "Then it seems that this matter must be done by the emperor and Cai Jing." Two goals. We walked into Beijing to meet the emperor. ’

Liu Erqiu was shocked, he didn't want to see the emperor. He knew it was a thankless task. He didn't know that he had finally managed to get an official position. This time, if something happens, you may lose it.

But Li Yibai is his eldest brother, and he also said that Li Yibai will help with anything. If you regret it at this time, wouldn't you be ungrateful?

'Big brother, don't worry. I must have gone out to accompany my eldest brother to Beijing. ’

Li Yibai smiled faintly, "This matter is not that serious. I'm going to turn evil into good when I encounter something, don't forget who I am? I'm Li Yibai. The person in Nancheng who can't afford to offend. The emperor named me a national teacher, and he had to give me some face. ’

Liu Erqiu's heart lit up, yes. The eldest brother is a national teacher, which is naturally the person valued by the emperor, and this matter is not so serious.

'Big brother, how do you want me to help you?' ’

'You help me contact Gao Yu and other powerful people in the court.' I think that if I ask Lin'an to reduce taxes this time, Cai Jing will definitely oppose it. Although I can convince the emperor, Cai Jing's opposition is estimated to make the emperor in a dilemma. So I need Gao Yu's support. I need the support of some of the other ministers of the court. ’

Li Yibai seriously analyzed it to Liu Erqiu.

After Liu Erqiu heard this, he gave a thumbs up, "Big brother, you are really talented, although you are not in the court, you know the operation of the court well." The younger brother admires and admires. ’

Li Yibai smiled, "Don't laugh. Let's go to Bianliang to see the emperor. ’

Liu Erqiu hurriedly said, "Big brother." We're going to have to prepare for it. It's a long way to go. Let's go tomorrow. ’

Li Yibai took his hand, "Let's go." ’

Before the words fell, the two disappeared without a trace in an instant.

After the transfer in the United States, they landed at the Yuelai Inn in Bianliang.

'Big brother, you scared the hell out of me. Why did you take me to Bianliang all of a sudden? Could it be that the eldest brother is a god. Liu Erqiu asked in surprise after landing on the ground.

Li Yibai said lightly, "That's right. I am a god. The emperor also knew that I could do immortal arts, so he made my teacher a teacher. Stop it. Let's go to see the emperor. ’

Liu Erqiu hurriedly said, "We need to report through the Ministry of Rites first." The emperor approves it, and we can meet us. ’

Li Yibai said anxiously, "This is too slow, is there any better way?" ’

Liu Erqiu replied, "Then you can only follow Lord Gao Yu to see the emperor through Lord Gao Qiu." ’

'I'm a national teacher. The emperor said, I don't have to kneel when I see him. But he didn't give me a token so that I could go to him without hindrance. It seems that when I see him, I will ask him for a token. ’

Saying that, Li Yibai followed Liu Erqiu to Gao Yu's mansion.

When he came to Gao Yu's mansion, Liu Erqiu directly greeted the housekeeper.

After a while. Then I heard someone shouting,

Is it Li Jieyuan? Please come in, please come in. ’

Liu Erqiu was taken aback when he heard this. 'Captain Gao, you've never gone out to greet a guest in person. What an honor we have today. ’

'It's Li Yibai below, hello Gao Taiwei. ’

Li Yibai arched his hand.

'Li Xie was a rare and promising young man, and his achievements were high, and the emperor named you a national teacher, how dare I slack off. Please come in. ’

As he spoke, Gao Yu stretched out his arm and made a gesture to invite in.

Li Yibai was also surprised, he didn't expect Gao Yu to be such an approachable person, and he would take the initiative to go out to greet him.

Maybe Gao Yu has another purpose. If he can achieve the position of a captain, he must have his advantages. ’

Li Yibai followed Gao Yu into the living room and sat down.

'Captain Gao was so polite to me that he went out to greet me himself, which really disturbed me. ’

Gao Yu hurriedly called someone to serve tea, and at the same time said, "Li Jieyuan, don't be polite. You are Xie Yuan famous, and you are a national teacher, the emperor himself sealed, and now the emperor has been listening to your words and has been recuperating in the Taixu Palace. In the future, we will be colleagues, and the officials of the same dynasty will take care of each other, this time it is rare for you to enter Beijing with the second ball, so don't leave, stay for a few more days, and we will be a family in the future. ’

It's a family. Li Yibai smiled in his heart, Gao Yu really had a good relationship. He is close to me like this, and wants to pull me into the gang, maybe he sees the emperor's love for me. It must be like this, he, a close minister around the emperor, knows the emperor's thoughts well.

However, Gao Yu is elegant, easy-going and informal, which makes Li Yibai feel very impressed.

"Taiwei, this time I went to Beijing with my eldest brother because I wanted Taiwei to take my eldest brother to meet the emperor. ’

Liu Erqiu helped Li Yibai and said.

I see. Li Jieyuan, don't worry. It's up to me. Early tomorrow morning, I will take you into the palace to meet the emperor. ’

Then thank you, Captain Gao. ’

Li Yibai arched his hand.

This is a good opportunity to have a good relationship with Li Yibai, this favor, of course Gao Yu is willing to help.

The next day, Gao Yu took Li Yibai into the palace gate.

The palace was vast, surrounded by guards with spears. These guards were taller than Li Yibai's guards. Each one has a big man of 1.8 meters.

In ancient times, there were very few people who were 1.8 meters, and most of these people were the strongest among the rare people. Each one can be one against five.

These guards were selected from the major armies and eventually became soldiers of the forbidden army, guarding the palace and protecting the emperor's safety.

Gao Yu and Li Yibai walked through the long stone steps and finally came to the Taixu Palace.

The Taixu Hall was built by Song Huizong in order to cultivate the Dao Law. Song Huizong had three hobbies. The first is to love calligraphy and painting. The second is Aiqishi. The third is the love of cultivating immortals.

He revered Taoism and proclaimed himself the emperor of Taoism. In fact, it is an idle egg pain, and I also dream of immortality, so that I can always enjoy the fun of being an emperor.

Ever since he built this Taixu Palace, he has almost liked it here. He stays here a lot.

'Your Majesty, Lord Gao Yu asks to see you. ’

Song Huizong was bored at this time. Gao Yu can bring him fun, and when he heard that Gao Yu was coming, he hurriedly said.

'Come and see me.' ’

The palace door was pushed open.

Li Yibai and Gao Yu walked in.

'The minister greets Your Majesty. ’

Gao Yu bowed and arched his hand.

'Minister Li Yibai greets His Majesty. ’

Li Yibai arched his hand. He didn't even bow down.

Song Huizong didn't care. On the contrary, after seeing Li Yibai, his eyes lit up and he shouted loudly,

'National teacher, you're here. That's great. Tell me if there is any information about Tianzun. ’

I'm grass, and I'm really an obsessive cultivator. Li Yibai smiled in his heart, he actually recognized me at once. Since you asked me about the matter directly, I will directly use this opportunity to tell you about the tax cut.

'Your Majesty. Tianzun has news. ’

Song Huizong's eyes lit up. 'Really. National teacher, please take a seat. ’

In the palace, they sit on the ground, and there are futons on the ground. Behind the futon are screens and light yarns.

The Taixu Hall is really magnificent and spacious, luxurious and exquisite.

Li Yibai sat down on the futon unceremoniously. Song Huizong also sat cross-legged across from him. And Gao Yu stood aside.

Li Yibai and Song Huizong were on an equal footing. It is estimated that there are no more than three people in the whole world who enjoy such treatment.

'What did Tianzun say? ’

'How has your Majesty's reflection been lately?' Li Yibai asked directly.

'Is that the message conveyed by the Heavenly Venerable?' Song Huizong asked impatiently.

'It's not. That's what I asked Your Majesty. ’

Song Huizong hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll think about it." I have decided that I have devoted myself to self-cultivation, no longer oppress the people, and no longer be arrogant and extravagant. ’

Li Yibai nodded, "Your Majesty has done a good job. I asked on behalf of Tianzun. ’

Song Huizong was so anxious that he was about to pull Li Yibai's sleeve, "National Teacher, hurry up and tell me what revelation Tianzun left me?" ’

Li Yibai closed his eyes. Pretend to be dashing. The national teacher said that the taxes in Jiangnan are too heavy. The people lived in hardship, and he ordered His Majesty to reduce taxes for the people of Lin'an. Relieve the suffering of the people to absolve your majesty of guilt. ’

Song Huizong was disappointed. It turns out that Tianzun said this. ’

He fell silent and bowed his head.

Song Huizong's demeanor is because although he is an artist emperor, he is still very clear about taxes. The entire Great Song Dynasty counted on a corner of the south of the Yangtze River to maintain support. Lin'an is also an important tax-paying area in the south of the Yangtze River. If Lin'an's taxes are reduced, it is estimated that the life of the imperial court will be tight.

'Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?' Li Yibai asked deliberately.

'National teacher, let me discuss this matter with the ministers of the court. Cai Jing has always done these things. I'm going to tell him about this sudden change. I'd like to hear from him. ’

Song Huizong said in a low voice.

It's not a problem at all for this to be a loser. Li Yibai thought that when it came time to govern the country and serve the people, it would wither. No wonder the Northern Song Dynasty died at his hands in the end.

'Okay. Your Majesty. The minister had one more request. ’

Song Huizong came back to his senses, "The national teacher has something to say. ’

Li Yibai said lightly, "The minister wants to serve as a transfer envoy to Lin'an and help His Majesty collect Lin'an's taxes." ’

Song Huizong immediately returned, "This is no problem, I can immediately make you a Lin'an transit envoy." It's just a matter of reducing the taxes in Lin'an, and I will discuss it with the ministers in the court tomorrow. ’

Li Yibai immediately said, "Your Majesty." Tomorrow, the minister will also come to the court to explain the benefits of Lin'an's tax reduction. ’

After the two went back.

Li Yibai lived in Gao Yu's house.

Because he needs Gao Yu's help, and at the same time, he also needs the help of Gao Yu's friends. Tomorrow there will certainly be a heated debate between the DPRK and China.

'Captain Gao, I need your help tomorrow. I hope you can contact your people in the DPRK and help me. I must reduce Lin'an's taxes. ’

Gao Yu smiled faintly, "I will help with the matter of the national teacher." We are family. But I wonder why the national teacher must help the people of Lin'an reduce their taxes? Is it just because the national teacher is from Lin'an? ’

Li Yibai replied, "I want to do something for the people." Now the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty has changed from strong to weak. It is estimated that someone as smart as Taiwei must have seen it. But if everyone turns a blind eye like this, it is estimated that it will not last many years. I want to use Lin'an as an experiment to save the Great Song Dynasty. ’

Gao Yu's eyes widened, the young man in front of him had such ambitions. But there is nothing he can do about a powerful person, how can this young man do such a big thing. (To be continued......)
