Chen Shuda heard that Xiao Yu seemed to be 'complaining' about Li Yuan, and quickly reminded him: "Shi Wen, you and I are not the ones who can criticize the saint. You must be careful what you say."

Xiao Yu sighed helplessly: "I know the importance..."
Chen Shuda saw that Xiao Yu had countless things to say in his heart, and he was a little bit unhappy about it. He couldn't help but said: "When King Qi entered the pass just now, many of his followers were wearing armor that seemed to be
A style unique to Youzhou.
How about we go and see it together?"
Chen Shuda couldn't let Xiao Yu speak out what was in his stomach, and he was afraid that Xiao Yu would feel uncomfortable, so he tried every means to get Xiao Yu to focus on other places.
I hope this can make Xiao Yu forget the words in his stomach.
Xiao Yu felt Chen Shuda's kindness, an ugly smile appeared on his face, and sighed: "I have also noticed this, but we don't have time to pay attention to them now. We have to tell what King Qi said as soon as possible.
Everything should be submitted to the sage for his decision."
Things have priorities.
The followers under Li Yuanji are wearing Youzhou's unique armor, which is indeed worthy of attention. But their first task now is to complete the task assigned by Li Yuan.
Only after completing the tasks assigned by Li Yuan will they have time to focus on other things.
"Then I'll report it to the saint. You go and see why they are wearing Youzhou's unique armor?"
Chen Shuda suggested.
The conversation between them and Li Yuanji did not take long, and the memorial they wrote did not need to be too long. Except for Li Yuanji's rude remarks that needed polishing, there was nothing else to worry about. There was no need for the two of them to write the memorial together.
Xiao Yu thought about it for a while, then cupped his hands at Chen Shuda and said, "Then I'll help you, Brother Chen."
Chen Shuda nodded with a smile and walked quickly to their residence. Xiao Yu rushed to Guancheng with his hands behind his back.
It was not easy for Xiao Yu to break into the barracks of Prince Qi's Tongjun Mansion. If Xiao Yu wanted to understand the troops and horses of Prince Qi's Tongjun Mansion, he could only stand on the gate and look far away.
Li Yuanji had no idea that his troops had been targeted by Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu.
However, even if he knew it, he wouldn't care.
The Xue brothers are not unknown people, and the more than 10,000 heroes given by Li Yi is not a small sum. It cannot be hidden, so it is better to put it in front of others openly.
Hiding it here and there can actually lead to misunderstanding.
After Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu left, Li Yuanji was not in a hurry to rest. Instead, he thought about how to restore the population of Hebei Province and the mulberry farming in Hebei Province as soon as possible.
He didn't need to guess to know that Li Yuan would probably not refuse his request.
After all, Hedong Road and Hebei Road are both located to the east of Shaanxi Road, and both can achieve the purpose of checking and balancing Li Shimin.
Moreover, Hebei Road now needs a Daxingtai more than Hedong Road to manage everything in Hebei Road and restore the population and agriculture of Hebei Road.
Therefore, before he returned to Beijing, Li Yuan should have moved him to the post of Shangshu Ling of Daxingtai, Hebei Province, to take charge of everything in Hebei Province.
Hebei Province is now in dire straits. The people need to be resettled, officials need to be reappointed, the administration of officials needs to be restored, and farming and mulberry farming needs to be started as soon as possible.
Especially the mulberry crops must be taken care of immediately.
Otherwise, many people in Hebei will starve to death in winter.
During the autumn plowing last year, there was a war in Hebei, and the people in Hebei were unable to farm at all.
During the spring plowing this year, Hebei had just been pacified. Under Li Shimin's management, although some places had restored official administration and caught up with spring plowing, most places still had not restored official administration and had not caught up with spring plowing.
If the official administration and farming in these places are not restored as soon as possible, then in winter, the people in these places will have to resign themselves to their fate.
"Here comes someone, summon Xue Wanshu."
After Li Yuanji thought for a while, he gave instructions to the guards at the door.
Not long after, Xue Wanshu appeared in Li Yuanji's barracks wearing a suit of armor.
After receiving the courtesy from Xue Wanshu, Li Yuanji said straight to the point: "Send a team of trustworthy people to Hebei Province to inspect the states in Hebei Province."
In order to restore the civil service and farming in most places in Hebei Province, it is necessary to send people to understand the current situation in Hebei Province in detail.
Xue Wanshu was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but said: "Why did His Highness send someone to Hebei Province?"
Xue Wanshu must ask this question clearly.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to assign tasks to his subordinates.
Li Yuanji said frankly: "Go and take a look at the official administration of the states in Hebei Province and the conditions of spring plowing in the states."
Xue Wanshu raised his eyebrows slightly.
There was a lot of information in Li Yuanji's words, but Li Yuanji didn't say it clearly, so he couldn't ask more questions.
"I understand. I will immediately send people to inspect the states in Hebei Province."
Xue Wanshu bowed and agreed.
Li Yuanji waved his hand and was about to let Xue Wanshu leave, but he heard Xue Wanshu say again: "There is an old man in Guancheng who is nearly fifty years old. He keeps staring at the barracks. I sent someone to check and found out that he was Xiao Yu, Duke of Song Dynasty.
What do you have to explain, Your Highness?"
Li Yuanji was stunned for a moment, then smiled thoughtfully: "He has discovered you and wants to see why you hang out with me. If he likes to see it, let him see it."
Xue Wanshu nodded, bowed and left the barracks without saying anything more.
After Xue Wanshu left, Li Yuanji laughed out loud and did not pay too much attention to the matter.
As a confidant of Li Yuan, Xiao Yu discovered that there was a group of soldiers and horses suspected of being from Youzhou in his army, so it was reasonable to take a closer look.
After all, the troops and horses in Youzhou are now under Li Yi's control.
The profound meaning of Li Yi's troops appearing under his command is certainly worth pondering.
After Xue Wanshu left, Li Yuanji briefly thought about the candidates who would be sent to Hebei Province to take charge, and then stepped down.
…
The next day.
Li Yuanji did not stay at Tianjing Pass to wait for Li Yuan's reply, but led a group of soldiers and horses to continue on their way.
After passing Tianjing Pass and walking further south, we arrived at Huaizhou, the boundary of Luoyang.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Li Sixing, one person and one horse, is guarding the boundary monument of Huaizhou.
Li Sixing looked a lot thinner and older.
After seeing Li Yuanji, he immediately jumped off his horse, ran quickly to Li Yuanji's horse, and crawled under Li Yuanji's horse.
"Your Majesty, Li Sixing, came to see His Highness and begged His Majesty to spare my life."
Li Sixing's words were a little choked.
It seemed that he had been greatly wronged, and he seemed to have countless sorrows to complain about.
Li Sixing was roasted on the fire for several months. It can be said that his days were like years. He was almost falling apart from the roast and could no longer bear it.
Li Yuanji sat astride the horse and stared at Li Sixing kneeling in front of him, with mixed feelings in his heart.
Once upon a time, he thought he could tame the fierce horse Li Sixing and let Li Sixing be used for his own purposes.
But in the end, Li Sixing still chose Li Yuan.
"I have been waiting at Weizeguan for several months, waiting for you to beg me for mercy, but you didn't."
Li Yuanji stared at Li Sixing and said with emotion.
Li Sixing's head hung low, and he didn't say a word except for choking.
Li Yuanji sighed, "Everyone has his own ambitions. If you don't want to serve me wholeheartedly, I won't force you. Then you can leave the house and go to my father and ask him to find another job for you.
If you meet me in the future, try to take a detour, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to help but kill you."
"Why wait until later? Just kill it now."
Yu Wenbao shouted behind Li Yuanji.
In Yu Wenbao's eyes, people who betray their master should be killed immediately to serve as a warning to others.
Let him live an extra quarter of an hour, that would be mercy.
Li Yuanji glared at Yu Wenbao.
No matter how you say it, Li Sixing is still Li Yuan's hero in Taiyuan Yuanmou. How can he kill him just by saying he can kill him?
The "death-free gold medal" given by Li Yuan to "spare one death" is not something he can ignore now.
Yu Wenbao was stared at and shrank his neck, not daring to speak any more.
"Let's go."
Li Yuanji ignored Li Sixing and rode towards Luoyang City.
Others followed suit.
Not long after, the boundary monument of Huaizhou came out, and Li Sixing was left kneeling alone, choking in a low voice.
Not long after Li Xiuning passed the boundary marker in Huaizhou, he rode up to catch up with Li Yuanji and asked, "What mistake did that Li Sixing make?"
Li Yuanji smiled and said: "I didn't make a mistake."
Li Xiuning looked at Li Yuanji in shock.
Li Yuanji smiled and explained: "It's just a bit unhuman, so I can't tolerate him in my house."
Li Xiuning became even more puzzled, "Tell me carefully."
Li Yuanji did not hide anything, and said frankly: "Sister, I should know that I raised a lot of food by selling my official positions, and stored them in Luoyang City.
After I left Luoyang City, many people focused on this batch of grain.
Li Sixing is one of the people I specially left to take care of this batch of grain.
But when Wei Zheng and others were seeking this batch of grain, Li Sixing received his father's instructions and did not reveal anything to me.
If Yu Wenbao, my subordinate, was not loyal and risked his life to guard this batch of food, I am afraid that this batch of food would have been planned away by Wei Zheng and others."
Li Xiuning opened her mouth when she heard these words, not knowing what to say.
After a long time, he curled his lips and said, "I thought my father would only bully me, a daughter, but I didn't expect that he would also bully you, a son."
In Li Xiuning's view, Li Yuan was bullying others by scheming behind his back to resell the food obtained from his official position.
How could Li Yuan, a father, take something from his son like this?
Your next grand and upright decree, asking your son to give you some food to honor you, is better than your secret plans using various means.
"Who says it's not..."
Li Yuanji said with a cheerful smile.
Li Xiuning hummed and said: "Then no matter what, Li Sixing is still an official in your house, and he and you are just friends. He will not let you know at all. It is indeed devoid of any human touch."
As for whether the revelation to Li Yuanji would offend Li Yuan, that was not something Li Sixing should worry about at all.
Li Sixing could care about his relationship with Li Yuanji and reveal the truth to Li Yuanji, but Li Yuanji could still watch Li Sixing being hacked by Li Yuan.
Besides, if Li Yuan really wanted to blame Li Sixing for this, Li Sixing only needed to say, "The county magistrate is not as good as the current one", which would be enough for Li Yuan to withdraw all punishment.
