Chapter 530
When the civil and military officials saw Li Er's arrival, they immediately paid homage in unison: "My servant, see Your Majesty!"

Li Er sat on the dragon chair with a golden knife, waved his hands and said: "My dear friends, please be flat!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

The civil and military officials then straightened their waists, waiting for today's morning court meeting.

The prince held the Buddha dust in his hand and said: "If there is something to play, the court will leave if there is nothing to do!"

Li Jing, Minister of the Ministry of War, stood up first and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to announce!"

In fact, what Li Jing wanted to tell Li Erqi today was the matter of the Zhongzhou navy carrying guano back to Beijing.

As the leader of generals, Li Jing can report this matter to Li Er on behalf of Liu Rengui!
Liu Rengui has no objection to this either!

Of course, Li Er is also an insider.

Although Li Er knew what Li Jing asked about, he still asked according to the rules: "Li Jing, what do you want to tell me today?"

Li Jing raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the Zhongzhou Navy has carried a million stones of bird droppings back to Beijing last night, please Your Majesty to reward the officers and men of the Zhongzhou Navy!"

"The general will second Li Jing's remonstrance!"

Cheng Yaojin then stood up and expressed his opinion.

Then Chai Shao, Qin Qiong and other generals also came out to support Li Jing's advice!

Liu Rengui was moved to tears, which shows that Cheng Yaojin and the others have regarded him as a member of the generals.

In the future, Liu Rengui can also get the support of Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong in the court.

Yuchihuan is also happy to see this happen.

The reason why Cheng Yaojin expressed his support for Li Jing was actually because of Yuchihuan.

In addition, Cheng Chumo, the eldest son of Cheng Yaojin, and Liu Rengui used to be colleagues, and they assisted Yuchihuan in Zhongzhou for three years.

The friendship between Cheng Chumo and Liu Rengui alone.

Cheng Yaojin believes that Liu Rengui will become a friend of the Cheng family in the future!

Li Er nodded in approval and said: "The Zhongzhou navy set out to conquer the island of guano, and brought back a million stones of guano. They have made great efforts. I will reward each of them with a penny, thank you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for rewarding the officers and men of the Zhongzhou Navy!"

Cheng Yaojin immediately handed over his hand and thanked him.

Liu Rengui excitedly said: "The last general, on behalf of the five thousand soldiers of the Zhongzhou Navy, would like to thank His Majesty for his great kindness!"

Li Er pointed at Liu Rengui and said with a smile: "Liu Rengui, I haven't rewarded you yet, do you have any wishes that have not been fulfilled yet?"

Liu Rengui thought for a while, and replied: "Your Majesty, the only wish of the general now is to help His Majesty expand the territory in the future!"

"Liu Rengui, your wish, I will make your wish come true in the future!"

Li Er is the emperor on horseback, not the master of success, so he appreciates Liu Rengui's great ambition to make contributions!

For those generals who do not want to make progress, Li Er will not allow them to enter the court.

Because the Tang Dynasty is still surrounded by powerful enemies such as Western Turks, Tubo, and Goguryeo.

Li Er didn't dare to take it lightly.

Seeing that Li Er did not reward Liu Rengui, Li Jing immediately reminded him: "Your Majesty, Liu Rengui led the Zhongzhou navy to the island of guano to bring back a million stones of guano. He should count as the first contribution!"

Li Er nodded and said, "What Li Jing said is true. I can't bury the meritorious officials!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for listening to the general's advice!"

Li Jing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he believed that Li Er would not live up to his words.

Sure enough, Li Er then discussed with Wang Gonggong about rewarding Liu Rengui.

After some exchanges, Li Er learned that most of the counties in Guanzhong had already been rewarded to Tang Xungui.

At present, only Jingyang County in Guanzhong has no land for the time being!

"According to my decree, Zhongzhou Navy Master Zhonglang transported Liu Rengui back to the million-stone guano. He has made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty. Today, he is specially canonized as the male of Jingyang County, hereby!"

Li Er finally added an official to Liu Rengui.

According to the ranking of the titles of the Tang Dynasty, the county men are from the fifth-rank title, and there are three hundred households in Shiyi!

At the same time, Liu Rengui can get five hundred acres of hereditary Yongye farmland at the same time!
According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, the five hundred acres of Yongye land do not need to pay taxes.

This can be regarded as Liu Rengui's first family property in the Tang Dynasty for his descendants.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the gift!"

After Liu Rengui realized it, he immediately paid homage to Li Er excitedly.

Li Er waved his hand and said: "Liu Rengui, please step back!"

"The end will follow the order!"

Liu Rengui immediately returned to the ranks of generals in the Ministry of War.

Some high-ranking minister-level officials in the Xuanzheng Palace envied Liu Rengui very much. Their positions were no lower than Liu Rengui's, but they didn't have titles!
Because Datang's title must be obtained through military exploits.

Therefore, most of the nobles in Datang are generals.

Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and the others also returned to the ranks of generals.

Li Er then began to discuss the distribution method of guano with civil and military officials.

"My dear friends, now that the Zhongzhou Navy has brought back millions of stones of bird droppings back to Beijing, how do you think I should divide these bird droppings equally?"

Li Er asked all civil and military officials with a smile on his face.

Wei Zheng was the first to come forward and said: "Your Majesty, the common people in Guanzhong now have cow dung to fertilize the fields, but the nobles in Guanzhong lack cow dung to fertilize the fields. I suggest that each noble family distribute ten stones of guano, and distribute the excess to the common people to fertilize the fields." !"

Fang Xuanling also came out to play Li Er, saying: "Your Majesty, the cow dung brought back to Guanzhong by the Ministry of Households this year is mainly supplied to the common people, and the cow dung obtained by Xungui is less than [-]%!"

Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, and Chai Shao once again echoed Wei Zheng's advice, stating that their Yongye field is indeed lacking cow dung fertilizer!
Yu Chihuan also knew this well, so he didn't object to Wei Zheng's remonstrance today!

Li Er clasped his hands and said: "Since the Yongye Field of your lovers is short of cow dung and fertilized fields, then I will follow Wei Zheng's advice!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"

Wei Zheng's advice was accepted by Li Er, and he was also very happy.

"Wei Zheng, Cheng Zhijie, if there is nothing to play, you can step back!"

Li Er waved his hand.

"The minister obeys the order!"

Wei Zheng and Cheng Yaojin immediately returned to their queue.

Li Er then discussed the state affairs and people's livelihood of the Tang Dynasty with the civil and military officials.

Liu Zhenghui, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, then reported to Li Er the situation of appeasing the victims in Shannan Road and Lingnan Road.

When Li Er learned that the victims had resumed farming, he was in a good mood.

Half an hour later, Li Ercai announced his resignation.

So the civil and military officials left Xuanzheng Hall in an orderly manner, and they returned to the three provinces and six ministries to perform their duties.

This time Liu Rengui left the Xuanzheng Palace with Yuchihuan.

When they arrived near Zhongshu Province, Yuchi Huancai and Liu Rengui parted ways.

Liu Rengui then went to the Ministry of War to receive the reward issued to him by the court.

When Yu Chihuan returned to Zhongshu Province, he conscientiously corrected the memorial.

When the elder Sun Shunde returned to Zhongshu Province, he sighed and said, "Little Chancellor Yuchi, my family's Yongye farmland has tens of thousands of acres, and His Majesty only gives ten stones of guano, which is a drop in the bucket. How can this be enough to fertilize the land?"

Yuchi Huan glared at his eldest son Shunde and said: "The eldest son's family has merchant ships that go to sea. If you want bird droppings in the future, just follow the Zhongzhou Navy to go to sea and dig out guano! Haha!"

Sun Shunde's eyes lit up and said: "Little Chancellor Yuchi's words are true, I will apply to His Majesty to go to sea with the Zhongzhou Navy!"

After all, Changsun Shunde hurriedly left Zhongshu Province.

Yu Chihuan stared at Changsun Shunde's eager look, and sighed: "Changsun Shunde is a greedy person, and his nature is hard to change!"
