Palace of Eternal Life.

Li Si looked at the Minister of Revenue and said, "What should I report to you if you have any questions?"

The Minister of Revenue said respectfully: "Your Majesty has handed you over to me to investigate the land, and I have basically completed it."

The words of the Minister of Revenue shocked Li Si.

Previously, the Minister of Revenue returned to Chang'an City and only had some of the land inspected. The remaining land was being inspected by the people from the Ministry of Revenue.

Now, two months have passed, and these people have returned to Chang'an one after another.

Based on the results of these people's investigation, the Minister of Revenue has sorted out all the land in the Tang Dynasty.

"Thank you for your hard work, my dear."

Li Si nodded slightly.

Although the Minister of Revenue was able to investigate the land so quickly, most of the reason was that Li Si.

Since Li Si ascended the throne, he defeated the Turks, rectified the officialdom, pacified the Shuofang, and made his subordinates frightened.

In this case, who dares to disobey the will of his son?

Furthermore, the people from the Ministry of Revenue just checked the land.

It's not about taking these lands for your own cherry blossoms

Therefore, the investigation task of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue has progressed so quickly.

But no matter what, the Minister of Revenue can complete this task in full, which is naturally related to his own abilities.

If the Minister of Revenue is a good fortune, it would not be possible to complete such a quick inventory.

"I am ashamed."

"I just want to serve Your Majesty. Whatever Your Majesty wants to do, I will do my best to complete it!"

The Minister of Revenue took out a memorial from the cuff and held it on his hands.

The memorial records the results of this investigation.

The eunuch, a close servant, presented the memorial to the dragon case.

Li Si unfolded the memorial and glanced away.

"really."

A hint of coldness appeared on Li Si's face.

As he thought before, at least 80% of the land he has settled now fall into the hands of those aristocratic families.

These aristocratic families controlled most of the land in the Tang Dynasty, but refused to pay taxes.

Land annexation is becoming more and more serious, and the Tang Dynasty cannot receive money, so there will naturally be problems.

Although Li Si has issued land reform, abolished the tax exemption privileges of aristocratic families and collected taxes on a mu.

But the problem has not been fundamentally solved.

Because the land that was deposited was still in the hands of those aristocratic families.

The land is not in the hands of the emperor. Even if the aristocratic families start paying taxes, the initiative is still in the aristocratic families.

The emperor has no initiative and does not have enough deterrence to the aristocratic families!

In this way, even if the land merger problem can be alleviated, over time, it will still cause various future problems.

In the eyes of those aristocratic families, the tax they paid was given to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

In this case, how could they have awe of the Tang Empire?

Will you still listen to the emperor without awe?

In Li Si's view.

There is only one way to completely solve the land problem.

Accept the land and make it a national cherry blossom

Only when all these lands are in the hands of the emperor can those aristocratic families put their positions in the right place.

Everything they had was given to Bo and the others by the Emperor.

The emperor can make them prosperous for a lifetime, or they can make them fall into the abyss.

Li Si sat upright on the dragon throne with deep eyes.

Li Si has been secretly doing the matter of accepting the land.

Land reform is also making preparations for this!

When you take down the land, you must be in your hands!

The Minister of Revenue stood in the Hall of Changsheng, feeling his majesty becoming more and more heavy, and his heart was trembling.

"Okay, my dear, go down."

Li Si put down the memorial and waved his hand.

"Abide by the order."

The Minister of Revenue retired.

Li Si leaned slightly on the dragon throne, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Since the land inventory results have been released.

Li Si can prepare for the next step.

The land was gradually recovered.

However, before this, the problem of the Jiedushi needs to be solved.

Only in this way can Li Si let go completely and prepare to face the struggles of the next family.

Beiting.

The Beiting Jiedushi Zhao Gong looked anxious.

Since Shuofang was pacified, Zhao Gong has been in a state of uneasiness.

He was afraid, afraid that the emperor would notice his actions and pursue his crime of rebellion with Shuofang.

Next to Zhao Gong, his seventh son Zhao Zheng couldn't help but say, "Dad, you don't have to worry. For such a long time, there was no movement from the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and I guess nothing would happen."

As soon as Zhao Zheng's words fell, Zhao Gong looked at Zhao Zheng, his eyes filled with strong anger.

If it weren't for Zhao Zheng, how could he fall into the plot of King Shuofang? He was forced to agree to Shuofang's conditions?

However, Zhao Gong also knew it in his heart.

It was too simple to plot against him by King Shuofang.

Whether there is Zhao Zheng or not, it will be a result.

Thinking of this, Zhao Gong's anger dissipated a little.

Zhao Zheng is not wrong.

The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has not pursued him until now, so it is very likely that he will not pursue him.

Zhao Gong put down a little of his heart.

Zhao Zheng looked at Zhao Gong with ginger: "Dad, mine makes some sense."

"In my opinion, what can the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty do even if he knows his father's actions?"

"Does he still dare to attack his father?"

"The ten major military governors, Hexi and Shuofang, have all fallen into the emperor's hands."

"At this time, if he really dares to continue to attack his father, will the other governors remain indifferent?"

When Zhao Zheng saw this, a trace of confidence appeared on his face.

"So, dad, please relax. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will not only not attack his father, but on the contrary, he may send someone to comfort his father.

"Because he will show it to the other governors."

"Otherwise, if the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty continued to do his own thing and the eight major military governors rioted together, his position as emperor would probably not be stable."

Zhao Zheng just finished speaking.

Zhao Gong's face changed.

Sudden.

Just then.

A guard hurriedly walked in.

"General, the people from Chang'an are here."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zheng's face appeared proudly: "Dad, look at me, right? The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will not only not pursue you, but on the contrary, he will also send someone to comfort you."
