The turmoil initiated by the Changsun clan in the Chang'an court, not everyone involved is as fearless as Li Tai, and he is in the mood to think about his own small life.

Liu Min has been very anxious recently, and on this day he went to the countryside to visit Li Tai, with hundreds of people before and after, and most of them carried bows and knives, obviously worried that they would be attacked and killed by the eldest grandson's family.

Qianzhuang was crowded, and Li Tai did not go out to greet him, but just stood at the mouth of the valley and waited. Liu Min walked here, and this pair of difficult brothers couldn't help but sigh when they saw each other.

Li Tai still has a little deliberate attitude to take care of Liu Min's emotions, but Liu Min is really melancholy, his beard and hair are messy and there is no manners at all, and he sighed before he saw Li Tai.

"The current situation is unusual, Liu Lang has someone to report it, and there is really no need to take the risk to go personally."

Hearing Li Tai say this, Liu Min sighed again, and then said with a bitter smile: "I have already been robbed of my previous position because of my poor morality and unworthy of the position of Lang Guan, Boshan, you have to change your title, just match your name."

As he spoke, he took out a young boy of six or seven years old and a little timid from behind him, saluted Li Tai with a straight face, and introduced to Li Tai that this was his young son named Liu Ang.

Walking into the valley, when he saw the Taiwanese tent members stationed here to protect Li Tai, Liu Min couldn't help but flash a trace of envy in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.

In front of the villa, Li Tai raised his hand to summon a number of Feng and Li Ya who were playing in the courtyard, and asked the two boys to take the little Liu Ang to play elsewhere, and he invited Liu Min into the hall to sit down.

"My family's Taiwei Gong was also tragically deprived, and this wave of revenge from the eldest grandson clan is really turbulent and terrifying. I'm sorry that I'm confined to the countryside by the Lord today, and it's hard to echo my brother."

What can comfort people in adversity is always to tell him that you are not the most unlucky, Liu Min is undoubtedly unfortunate to be robbed of his official position, but compared with Gao Zhongmi's position of captain, it is not the most pitiful.

Sure enough, after Liu Min heard this, he also restrained his sadness a little, turned around and comforted Li Tai a few words, and then said, "This time I came to see you, I bid farewell to Boshan. I was derelict in my previous duties, and I even introduced disturbances into the Taiwan government, but fortunately, I still have mercy on the Lord, and I will return to my hometown to do my work and make up for my mistakes."

Speaking of this, he said with some shame: "If I hadn't come to ask for the past, Boshan, you wouldn't have been implicated in the matter. Things started because of me, but I am going to flee now, and I am really ashamed to see Boshan again, but I think that there may not be a period in the future, so I am ashamed to enter this and resign in person."

Li Tai didn't feel that Liu Min was implicated in this matter, but he also felt that he was involved, so that he could get this opportunity to enrich his own pockets and make a windfall. Although the temple of the eldest grandson's family was led by Liu Min to attack, it was also attacked by Li Tai.

Now that Liu Min has been deprived of his official position and sent back to his hometown, Li Tai is still happily taking stock of the harvest in the township, and he has been sad and joyful, and when he heard Liu Min say this, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed for a while.

"Life is inevitably in trouble, Brother Liu, you are a warrior who forges ahead in adversity, and this world is no longer the old time when the Second and Third Lords decided the general trend. Keep this will be loyal to the country, and the turmoil will always pass."

Seeing Liu Min's depressed face, Li Tai opened his mouth again to comfort.

Returning to Hedong Township and temporarily avoiding the edge of the Changsun clan is also a good choice for Liu Min. Even Li Tai himself, his cousin Cui Qian also advised him to avoid trouble in the township, but it was only because he understood Daxingtai's intentions that he made a more favorable choice.

The Liu family has been a famous family in Hedong for generations, and when it comes to the strength of the local forces, it is not comparable to Li Tai. Even if Liu Min retreats to the countryside, he has a lot to do. Unless the Eastern Wei Dynasty fully occupies Hedong, it is only a matter of time before the recovery is made. Li Tai said this, but it is not empty words.

"Boshan, your brave and fearless feelings are really enviable. In the past, I had similar feelings and aspirations, but after experiencing setbacks and vicissitudes, I gradually lost my original intention...... Alas, thank you for your auspicious words, and I hope that the situation will turn around in the coming year."

Liu Min is not as optimistic as Li Tai, in addition to worry, there is also a sense of frustration and pessimism about the overall future of their Hedong family.

The relationship between Pei Liuxue and other families in Hedong and the Western Wei Dynasty was relatively delicate.

Because of the geographical geography, they happened to be located in the most central area of the war between the Eastern and Western dynasties, and because of the considerable local resources and power, they had a certain transcendent status.

The reason why these people took refuge in the Western Wei Dynasty was, of course, not much to do with the Beizhen Group led by Yuwentai. To put it nicely, it is because Xiaowu moved west and returned to the legal system, but in fact, there is also the reason that the Western Wei Dynasty is weak, and they can gain more autonomy here, and even become the illusion that the other party can influence the general trend of the court and the pattern of the world.

However, in the actual situation, the development of these Hedong families to the Western Wei court was extremely unsmooth, and there were almost no high-ranking officials who established the dynasty. The nobles of Luoyang, who followed Xiaowu to move westward, and the overlords of Yuwentai, including Su Sui and other people in Kansai, were intentionally or unintentionally excluding them from entering the court.

Having local forces but no political resources meant that they, the Hedong people, could not speak independently and defend their own interests in this Western Wei regime, and could only be reduced to vassals of one side.

Just like Liu Min was deprived of his post this time, it is true that he was the first to flirt with the cheap, but it is enough to show that their Hedong family has a weak voice in the court and it is difficult to speak out, and traditional political forces such as the Changsun family do not treat each other squarely at all. Without the preservation of Daxingtai, Liu Min would even be suppressed in the countryside.

Through this incident, it can be reflected that if their Hedong family wants to go beyond the overlord and talk directly to the imperial court, at least for now, it is almost impossible, and there is no need to hope that they can become a third-party political force outside the imperial court and the overlord.

Putting aside his own circumstances, such a situation also made Liu Min discouraged. Their Hedong family and the Beizhen warriors were originally two forces that did not have much of a relationship, but due to the arrogance of the imperial court, if they wanted to obtain a channel for promotion and maintain their local power, they could only strengthen their dependence on and obedience to the overlord.

Liu Min cleaned up his mood a little, and then said to Li Tai: "This time I returned to my hometown, in addition to rectifying the township barracks, I also led the governor of Yanchi and rectified the salt affairs. I remember that Boshan had made a statement to Daxingtai before, and when I came to visit today, in addition to saying goodbye in person, I also wanted to ask for the details of the situation."

Li Tai was stunned at first when he heard this, and then turned a little embarrassed, after all, this matter itself touched the interests of the Hedong family, and he was a little embarrassed to be questioned by the party in person.

But soon he sighed again, after all, it was Yuwen Taisao.

Originally, he thought that Yuwentai was just using this to hit the political prestige of the Changsun family, but he didn't expect that the Hedong family was also included, and he wanted to take advantage of the pressure exerted by the Changsun family in the court to implement the salt introduction system in Hedong.

Murder is nothing more than that! Liu Min has just finished helping you clean the temple in Guanzhong, and the money and goods you got haven't had time to spend back, so you took advantage of the fact that people were targeted and forced to attack the countryside.

"I do have advice on this matter. Salt politics is related to people's livelihood, but the imperial court has lacked control since its establishment......

Li Tai first said a cliché, and then talked about his specific ideas.

The salt introduction system is a typical planned economy, which carries out integrated and standardized management from the production to the sale of salt.

In the short term, it does not directly harm the interests of these salt producers, and even due to the regulations of salt sales channels, salt can be sold more conveniently and safely with the help of the power of the overlord.

But in the long run, it is to give up the right to distribute benefits to the tyrant, and the scale of production, sales routes, and the pricing power of products are no longer owned by local tycoons.

To carry out this kind of normative reform that touches on the fundamentals, the current Liu Min is indeed a very suitable choice.

First of all, he was born in a famous family in Hedong, and his local power and prestige are huge, and he presided over the reform, which can avoid the resistance and opposition of Hedong people to the greatest extent. Secondly, as a senior practitioner, I can also know the details and loopholes better than others. In the end, Liu Min's own situation is worrying, and his dependence on the overlord has strengthened, so he is bound to be more attentive.

Although this matter is to put a shackle on the Hedong salt industry as a whole, it is not a short-sighted exhaustion, Liu Min, as the official presiding over this matter, is backed by the entire Xingtai Hegemony, and the energy allocated to the dispatch and distribution of local forces has also been unprecedentedly strengthened!

To be honest, Li Tai is very envious of Liu Min, and it is really an out-and-out blessing in disguise that he can get this appointment, at least if the overlord hands over this matter to him, he will never refuse. It's a pity that he is not from Hedong, and this beauty will not fall on his head anyway.

Liu Min originally thought that Daxingtai's reform of the salt administration was a zero-sum game to bring the salt profits from the hands of the Hedong people to the Taiwan government, so when he was appointed, he was also worried, worried that if he did not do well, he would see the evil of the Taiwan government, and the strength was too great and not allowed in the countryside, and in the end he might end up with a situation that was not pleasing to both sides and was ruined.

But after listening to Li Tai's explanation, he also breathed a long sigh of relief, his face swept away, and he hugged his fists in the direction of the Taiwan government and said with emotion: "The former envoy was derelict in his duties, and he caused even more trouble, I thought it was ugly and difficult to use, but I didn't expect Daxingtai to take on a heavy responsibility, which really makes me scared and ashamed!"

He turned to Li Tai and said: "It is even more rare for you to enter Daxingtai to benefit the country and benefit the public, I borrow your words to get this grant, I will sincerely and do my best to implement, so as to ensure that the government and the people are both convenient, and never disappoint your wisdom and benevolence Boshan!"

Li Tai felt that Liu Min should be able to see the far-reaching plot of the salt introduction reform, but he never mentioned it, just a lot of praise, after deceiving himself, the psychological burden of selling local resources will be much smaller.

Naturally, he would not pierce Liu Min's self-comfort, and after knowing that Liu Min had to be appointed as the chief of the salt administration to implement the reform, he felt that they could strengthen their cooperation with each other, so he smiled and said: "If my brother is not in a hurry, I will gather with all the villagers to discuss the matter later, and invite my brother to attend for me."
