The next morning, Li Chengqian got up from the bed at Lin Xiaoxiao's urging, washed his face in a daze, changed his clothes, and took Yang Yuxin and Xiaobai to the morning court.

The revolver was taken away by Lao Cheng yesterday, and today he would have to be taken back no matter what, otherwise Li Chengqian would have no confidence in his own safety.

The reason why he was at ease and satisfied before was in the same room, and he left Xiaobai and Ye Mei outside the house, he naturally relied on the six-fire revolver. Now that he was gone, he was a little worried.

By the time Li Chengqian arrived at Tai Chi Hall, many people had already arrived in the square. Although the time had not come, these people had already lined up, which looked a bit like queuing up to buy breakfast in the morning.

"Your Highness, come here, come here." As soon as Xiao Li showed up, an old man from the military immediately gave up his position in the top rank and greeted him from afar.

Li Chengqian kept bowing to everyone and greeted him quietly. Before he knew it, he slowly came to the front of the military department. He looked at Hou Junji who was greeting him and clasped his fists and said, "Shu Hou."

"Your Highness, King Qin." The old man gave a bow, then glanced at the civil servant opposite, lowered his voice and said, "I'm afraid there will be a storm today, so be careful."

Li Chengqian was shocked when he heard this. When he looked at the old man again, he found that the old man had returned to his expressionless face. He knew that he had something to say to him, so he smiled and greeted Du Ruhui, and stood in front of the military department.

What is the storm? What does it mean to be more careful? Li Chengqian stood in his position, but kept muttering in his heart. The insidious words of Hou Junji made him feel alert and confused. He didn't know that he, the King of Qin, had just taken office, and he had something to be careful about.

Before he could figure it out, the Taiji Hall had already opened its doors, and a small eunuch came out from the inside: "A hundred officials went to court..."

...

He led the dead to the hall and looked at the wild dragon chaise above, Li Chengqian decided that he should have a sleep first and talk about anything after the old man came.

Time was not long, and in the hazy, Li Chengqian heard a series of footsteps, and then the voice of the eunuch: "Your Majesty is here..."

Open his eyes, stepped forward, saluted, and retreated. Li Chengqian was extremely skillful in a series of actions. After finishing it, he returned to his original position again.

"Your Majesty, I have a memorial to Lu Chengqing." Just as I stood up, and before the thought of continuing to sleep arose, the old man from the Ho family had already stood up and said loudly to the old man above.

"Tell me!" Li Er raised his hand.

"Your Majesty, I impeach Your Highness the King of Qin to deceive the army and intend to rebel." Lu Chengqing said, turning his head to look at Li Chengqian.

"See what I did!" It was as if the person being impeached was not himself, Li Chengqian said with his neck in his mouth: "See if I believe it or not, I impeach you for 18 major crimes of corruption?"

"You, you're slandering!" Lu Chengqing couldn't stand Li Chengqian's tone and attitude.

"So what if you criticize you? You are a dying person who is old and dare to impeach me. I will not be able to shoot you once you shoot?" Li Chengqian sneered: "Don't think I don't know what you are thinking. I will put my words here today. If there is any problem in the future, I will definitely want your whole family to be buried with you!"

Although Li Chengqian was laughing, his tone was filled with a sense of sarcasm, making people unsurprising that he would fulfill this promise.

Lu Chengqing, who was originally calm, was indeed frightened by his half-true promise, and his eyes flashed with a little flashing: "You, you, you actually openly threatened the court officials in the court, you, you are so arrogant, I, I want to impeach you!"

"I will play it, I will just admire your spirit of "I will go even if I have thousands of people." The whole Tang Dynasty lacks people like you, but the fastest death is also someone like you!" Li Chengqian did not deny that he was threatening Lu Chengqing, and even reiterated it once.

The old man on the imperial stairs had not spoken yet, which means he was not opposed to his current behavior. Since this is the case, let's continue. Li Chengqian, who had secretly observed the old man's expression, thought so.

"You..., how can you do this!" Lu Chengqing did not doubt Li Chengqian's words at all. Thinking of this guy who could have ordered the slaughter of 50,000 Goguryeo slaves without blinking a few years ago. If he is really impeached and has nothing, he is afraid that he will really be able to kill him.

However, if I just let it go, Lu Chengqing felt unwilling to accept it.

The Lu family is no longer as famous as before. Many business partners have left them. In addition, the reputation among the people is also greatly different.

In Lu Chengqing's opinion, this was all Li Chengqian's behind the scenes. If it weren't for his "betrayal of the thorns and apologize", the Lu family would not have been today.

Damn, so hateful. Has he hated this guy now stands up again. After getting the title of King Qin, there is no essential difference from the previous prince. However, the Lu family is in a slump because of him. If he doesn't extricate this anger, how can he meet the ancestors underground after his death in the future?

On the one hand, there was a threat of the whole family's death and on the other hand, there was anger of the family's status plummeting. Lu Chengqing seemed to be trapped in a quagmire, struggling to get rid of this vortex.

Just when Lu Chengqing was not as good as how to choose, the arrogant His Majesty Li Er spoke: "Okay, stop making trouble, let go!"

Not a terrible thing? It turns out that the Lu family has been exterminated. In His Majesty Li Er's eyes, is it just a word "not a terrible thing"? Lu Chengqing almost squirted out an old blood, and tried hard to take two deep breaths before suppressing the breath in his heart.

However, Li Er did not give him a chance to continue speaking. After ordering him to retreat, he then said, "My dear friends, do anyone know the price of rice in Chang'an recently?"

"I will report to Your Majesty, fight three rice and four words." Wei Zheng walked out of the court and bowed and said.

"Dou Mi San, Si Wen, what do you think of this?" Li Er glanced at the ministers below from left to right and asked casually.

"Your Majesty, the rice is cheap and hurt the farmers!" Fang Xuanling answered after leaving the work.

"How to solve it?" Lao Li continued to ask.

"This..." Fang Xuanling paused and glanced at Du Ruhui.

This is different from what I studied in the study that day. Didn’t the tax cuts be set at that time? Why did you bring this matter to the court again today?

"Father, my son thought it would be better to avoid the agricultural tax in the world and set a precedent in history!" Li Chengqian could not stand this depressing atmosphere and shook his robe and sleeves and went out to play.

"Your Highness of the King of Qin is very generous." The old man glanced at Li Chengqian without any objection, then looked at Du Ruhui: "Keming, what do you think about the King of Qin's proposal?"

Du Ruhui hesitated for a moment, then bowed and replied: "Your Majesty, I think it's not impossible! The price of grain in three or four cents is very small, even if the tax is collected, it is not very useful at all."

His Majesty Li Er was silent for a while, then looked at Changsun Wuji: "Wuji, what is the agricultural tax last year?"

"Reply to Your Majesty, you have more than two million coins!" Changsun Wuji replied without thinking.

"Two million guan..." His Majesty Li Er took a deep breath. The annual agricultural tax was not worth hundreds of pieces of clothing. This money... seems to be really unnecessary to collect it.

"Father, two million yuan is the drop in the bucket for our Tang Dynasty treasury, but it is different for the people of the Tang Dynasty. My son believes that if we give up more than two million yuan, we will be a good reputation for our father and emperor through the ages. Only by setting a precedent in history will it be the right way!" Li Chengqian saw the old man's hesitation and couldn't help but add fuel to the fire.

"Your Highness of the King of Qin, more than two million guan is also a great wealth. I think I only earned more than one million guan at the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty. These two million guan..." Some censors couldn't stand Li Chengqian's tune and stood up to refute him.

But before Li Chengqian could finish his speech, he took over the topic: "You also said that it was the beginning of the founding of the country, but now it is the tenth year of Zhenguan. As the saying goes, one time and another, how can one time be said to be more than ten times apart?"

"Besides, this is only two million guan at the moment. If the people of the Tang Dynasty were not farming because of the rice, they would have lost more than two million guan. I wonder if the Censor had thought about this?"

The censor was also stupid in his study and did not understand how to deal with government affairs. After listening to Li Chengqian's words, he couldn't help but say angrily: "How is this possible? What else can the people do if they don't go to farm!"

"If you can't farm and support yourself, will you still farm? If you don't get a salary, will you still be an official? Do you know what people will do when they can't survive?" Li Chengqian glared at the censor and said angrily.

"How can you not be able to support yourself in farming? Your Highness, the King of Qin, don't be exaggerated!" The censor was also a stubborn donkey, and seemed to have to argue with Li Chengqian, why did the rice hurt the farmers?

Xiao Li was almost mad at this guy and said with a panting breath: "Can you live by eating rice every day? Do you have pens, ink, paper and inkstones in your house fall from the sky? Do you make your own seats and furniture? Do you don't need to buy these things with money? A bucket of rice for three cents a bucket of rice, and you have been growing a year's land, but the money you get is not enough to buy two pieces of furniture. Do you want to grow such a land?"

"Uh..." The censor was speechless when he was criticized. After thinking about it, he said: "If this is the case, it would be the same even if he did not collect taxes. Anyway, there is not much agricultural tax, and it will not have much impact on whether to collect or not."

"Oh..." Li Chengqian shook his head helplessly and looked at the censor with pity: "Sir, how did you get involved in the censor's team? Don't you know that taxes are net income? Maybe there is not much for you, but for the people, this part of net income can solve many problems."

The censor stopped talking and felt as if he had been wandering into a circle, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong. He looked up at Lao Li and found that His Majesty's eyes were a little gloomy, and his heart trembled.
