Datang: Huchi served as a bodyguard, but refused to enter the court as an official

Where do you need to mobilize money, where do you need to approve a budget, or in other words, an employee of a certain Taiji team is injured and needs to come forward to pay compensation

There are at least five people in Tai Ji who have the authority to do these things!

In other words, Li Tai really didn't have much business to do all day long.

It looks very busy, all busy with useless things.

But I can't go!

Huang Chao is not here, so he always looks for someone reliable to watch over.

Therefore, Li Tai set his sights on Xue Rong.

Although this person is more clinging, he is definitely a good hand in handling government affairs.

Most importantly, he is more trustworthy than others!

Li Tai has long seen through the entanglements in the court.

A lonely minister like Xue Rong is the easiest to offer his loyalty.

For the sake of his future, as long as his life is not involved, he will not betray.

Therefore, Li Tai put twelve hearts in handing over Tai Ji to him.

"In this way, I can also go to the Western Regions."

Li Tai murmured.

Only then did Xue Rong realize that Prince Yue was standing in front of him.

Hastily got up and saluted: "My lord!"

Li Tai nodded, and said: "Master Xue is really extraordinary. These things always give me a headache, but when I come to you, they become more organized!"

When Xue Rong heard Yue Wangye's praise, the tip of Xue Rong's nose glowed red with joy.

"My lord, it's all just small things. Taiji's work is complicated, and it's not as good as the government affairs of a governor."

Xue Rong laughed, and invited Prince Yue to sit down while talking.

Li Tai didn't sit down.

"This king is just here to see you"

With that said, Li Tai glanced outside.

His office is not far from the back garden, not a reception area.

Generally speaking, no outsiders will come over.

"Lord Xue, I think you are well aware of the situation in the court recently, but don't make any mistakes. Once those vicious dogs at Yushitai get hold of you, I won't be able to save you!"

Xue Rong's heart tightened.

Of course he knows how vicious Yushitai is now.

Usually, ordinary people who are greedy for ink are dismissed from office at most, or demoted to nobles. If they have too much greed, it is just a sentence of exile.

But since His Majesty set off on the expedition, there are more than a dozen corrupt officials who have been taken into the prison alone!

You know, it's a heavenly prison!

After entering, few can come out alive.

"Your Majesty understands, please rest assured, my lord!"

Xue Rong cupped his hands.

After threatening Xue Rong overtly and secretly, Li Tai got up to leave.

"Congratulations to the lord!"

Xue Rong sent him out of the door.

On this trip, Li Tai went out and took the little housekeeper of Yue Wangfu, the little nephew of An Guogong's family, with him!

Seeing the backs of the two of them riding away, Xue Rong's heart skipped a beat for no reason.

"Damn it, I'm sick in broad daylight, and I'm really going to go to medical school to see a doctor later on"

Li Tai came all the way to Baqiao Academy with his obsession and good light.

Although the new year is just over and the first month is not out yet, the number of people in the academy has not decreased.

Most of the students stayed on.

Especially the group of people who are about to graduate, they need to prepare for a big exam that will be held in June this year!

Imperial examination!

Since the imperial court banned the Chongwenguan affiliated to the Guozijian, the imperial examinations have also been suspended.

The reason is to wait for the first batch of academy students to graduate!

The simple Four Books and Five Classics have long been unable to meet the court's needs for officials.

The students who have undergone professional training in the academy are the best candidates to become officials in various places.

Of course, the imperial court did not reject students educated in traditional ways.

It is true that the Chongwen Museum has been cancelled, but the imperial court also prepared the same ceremony for them, ensuring the minimum fairness.

In addition to imperial examinations, there are also martial arts examinations.

The students of the Military Academy are gearing up one by one.

The gold content of this year's martial arts is by no means comparable to before.

Pass through the old campus and come to the new campus.

The special squad moved away from the once remote hill.

It was so arrogant that it directly occupied the entire new building!

In this building, it can be said that eating, living and playing are integrated.

After this year's imperial examination, a new batch of students will be admitted.

Entering the academy, as long as you pass an exam, ordinary people can also enter special classes.

The gentlemen are all vice-dean-level figures of various colleges, and they are used to cultivate elite talents.

Back in his dormitory, Li Tai started to pack his luggage.

As for Zhishi Shanguang, according to Li Tai's instructions, they smashed the doors of the dormitories one by one.

By the time Li Tai packed up his luggage, there were already several people sitting in the dormitory.

Li Ke, Dou Xiaoci, Li Fengjie and others all came.

Dugu Mou, Liu Hui and other younger ones also came, but they had no seats.

Everyone looked at Li Tai, carrying a small burden on his back, but no one spoke.

Li Tai said indifferently: "Brother Liu said that Chang'an City needs to send a large amount of gold and silver to the Western Regions. I plan to escort them in person. Which of you will follow me?"

Everyone seemed to have guessed Li Tai's plan long ago.

Li Ke frowned and said, "Where's Taiji?"

Li Tai smiled and said: "The manpower has been arranged a long time ago. If you want to go, let them take care of the supermarket's affairs. I have already discussed with the house minister about Xiu Mu's paperwork. He doesn't have to go on errand recently."

Dou Xiaoci and the others all looked at Li Ke.

They are all good brothers who are used to joking, there is no barrier.

But today, brothers Li Tai and Li Ke made them feel a little uneasy.

Chapter 946 It's a bit of Liu Bai's habitual technique

After getting along for so many years, no one would think that they still have unreasonable thoughts about the throne.

Even Li Tai, who fought fiercely with Li Chengqian at the beginning, has long given up the idea of ​​fighting for the reserve.

However, the civil and military officials in the court would not think so.

Ever since the news of Li Chengqian's fall into the Western Regions came back to Chang'an, some people were always ready to move.

He wholeheartedly wants to put Li Tai, or Li Ke, on the throne.

By doing so, maybe their family can become the top wealthy family in Datang!

It's just that they never thought about whether the brothers Li Tai and Li Ke would like it or not.

Of course, their thoughts are the least important.

Some people united, I am afraid that even Li Er will feel weak.

If they want to get rid of the predicament in front of them, Li Tai and Li Ke have only two choices.

Or, head to the fiefdom.

According to the royal code, once the prince leaves the domain, there is almost no possibility of coming back!

Or, venture to the Western Regions and personally welcome Li Chengqian back.

Completely cut off, some people's minds.

Obviously, Li Tai chose the second option

Next, it depends on Li Ke's mind.

And once Li Ke chooses to go to Jiufan, it means that their group will fall apart in an instant!

Royal things are so helpless

"The blue sparrow!"

Dou Xiaoci stood up.

Before he could speak, Li Tai waved his hand to stop him.

He stared straight into Li Ke's eyes and said, "Third Brother, I know your helplessness. Whether you go to Jiufan or the Western Regions, your hard work over the past few years will go to waste, but until now, you have not retreated. Even if the latter one dies in the Western Regions, I will definitely go, and the rest will depend on your decision."

Li Ke pursed his lips tightly and did not speak.

For him, the price of leaving Chang'an City is far higher than others.

As the big shopkeeper of the supermarket, he shoulders a heavy responsibility.

From negotiating, purchasing, bargaining and many other procedures, all are under his single-handed control.

Going to the Western Regions meant that he would hand over all these powers.

It's different from the Tai Ji mastered by Li Tai.

Taiji is a loyal person to the Liu family, and it doesn't make much difference if there are dozens of big shopkeepers.

But the most valuable resource in Li Ke's hands is a group of old customers who have cooperated with Liu's family for many years.

If he left, it would not take a year or a half, but only two or three months, and all resources would be lost.

It's going to be hard to get it back

The supermarket has been Li Ke's painstaking effort in the past few years. This move is tantamount to letting him lose his position as the big shopkeeper and give up the power in his hands.

It sounds like it's just a business.

But in fact, the authority of the shopkeeper of the supermarket is no worse than his position as the King of Shu!

Just one sentence can completely leave 10,000+ or ​​even tens of 10 people without food!

Li Ke covered his face with his hands and rubbed it vigorously a few times.

"give me a few days"

Li Tai lowered his head, "How long do we have?"

Li Ke stood up abruptly, and roared with red eyes: "At least wait until I find a suitable candidate!"

The people in the dormitory were startled by Li Ke's roar.

Li Fengjie went up to hold Li Ke, and Dou Xiaoci went up to hold Li Tai, for fear that the two brothers would fight.

Li Tai smiled.
