1082. Five days later, go down to the south of the river

Guangtian Palace, which is after the four major halls of the East Palace, is located behind the Jiade Palace, the Chongjiao Palace, and the Lizheng Palace, which is equivalent to the Ganlu Hall in the Taiji Palace, but the regulations are lower, and it is often used for private discussions between monarchs and ministers.

Walking into the hall, Li Pojun waved his hand and said: "Take three breakfasts", Liu Renliang opened his mouth, and before he could speak, Li Pojun raised his hand: "I have to eat after eating, otherwise I will eat and you will not be able to eat it."

Gao Jifu also laughed, "Your Highness gives you a meal, and the ministers should thank you and obey your orders." The corners of Liu Renliang's mouth twitched, and he also bowed straight and said, "Thank Your Highness for giving you a meal."

Li Pojun's breakfast had been prepared a long time ago, so it was served quickly.

A big bowl of soy milk, two meat pies, and then two steamed buns.

The three of them are the same, Li Pojun chewed the Hu cake in his mouth, and said bluntly: "Come and taste this soy milk, freshly ground, but there is nothing outside."

Gao Jifu looked at the milky white soy milk and praised it: "The color is white, and the freshness is ......."

"Stop, don't drag articles here when breakfast is so enjoyable." Li Pojun said angrily, and then looked at Liu Renliang, who was eating neatly and sitting upright, and said bluntly: "It's supposed to be so late, Ji Fu, when you chew and swallow slowly, when a group of Confucian scholars are chattering, I'll be free here."

When the words fell, Gao Jifu rolled his eyes, picked up the big bowl directly, and didn't use a spoon, in the surprised eyes of the two, rolled up his sleeves and drank it directly, and then took a very indecent burp, and then picked up the tablecloth and wiped his mouth, twisting his beard with his hands, "Is that so?" ”

Ahem... Ha ha... Li Pojun was eating steamed buns and almost didn't choke to death, pointed at Gao Jifu and said with a smile: "What a Gao Jifu, there is also the harmonious wind of Wei and Jin."

Liu Renliang also shook his head and smiled: "Brother Ji Fu is really a wonderful person."

"How do you taste it?" Li Pojun quipped with a raised brow.

Gao Jifu also looked depressed, shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity that such a fairy pulp, my nose smells it, but my tongue can't."

"Haha, don't be a pity, three more bowls". This sentence made the two laugh again.

A simple breakfast made the distance between the three of them immediately shortened, and Liu Renliang, who was not close to anyone, also laughed with the two.

After eating and drinking, Li Pojun patted his belly, "Do you know what I asked you to come with today?" ”

Seeing that they were talking about business, the two of them didn't dare to sit crookedly at will, and responded upright.

"The implementation of the salt law, there should also be contact with you, I will first say okay, this matter, I will be the shopkeeper, the specific matters, let the two of you do, to put it bluntly, I, the salt and iron envoy, is a prison army, by the way, wait for you to make some credit after the implementation of the salt law is successful. Don't expect me to work, you follow the specific regulations, that is, I will check and fill in the gaps. ”

Li Pojun did not beat around the bush, and directly stated his position at the beginning. Gao Liu and the others looked at each other, but they also understood the reason and said they understood.

Li Pojun took out a talisman from the box held by Chen Kang, and said straightly: "The implementation of the salt law this time will definitely be hindered, rightly, this talisman also has an order to mobilize 2,000 soldiers from any state and county under the jurisdiction of any sixteen guards, I specially asked the sage to play it, and the talisman will be handed over to you, once anyone touches the bottom line, they will all be taken."

Liu Renliang was stunned when he heard this, and then responded with excitement. It's nothing, His Royal Highness gave him the right to take charge of the army, or 2,000 soldiers and horses, what a trust. What's more, although Liu Renliang is both civil and military, he has always dreamed of being in charge of the army, but after he was promoted by Li Pojun, he went to serve as the director of land and resources, which is a civilian position. Therefore, this is the first time that Liu Renliang is in charge of the army in the real sense.

Gao Jifu looked at Liu Renliang, who was holding the talisman, and his eyes were full of envy.

Li Pojun saw it in his eyes, and he also said straightly: "Ji Fu don't be envious, this time to implement the salt law, I am not in charge, you are the main one, your task is arduous, you should work with Zhengzhi, sincere cooperation, must successfully implement the salt law reform."

Li Pojun believes that the ability of these two people is enough, even if Li Pojun's eyesight is not good, Li Shimin's eyesight should always work. In the past two years, Liu Renliang's achievements in the Department of Land and Resources have been first-class in the evaluation of the Ministry of Land and Resources, and he has won Li Shimin's praise.

In addition, Gao Jifu was also a member of the army and a member of the Zhongshu She, last night Li Pojun specially went to ask Li Shimin, Li Shimin was very impressed by such a diligent Zhongshushe, and looked at the previous evaluation of him by the ministry, and also nodded in agreement with Gao Jifu as the deputy envoy of salt and iron.

"The implementation of the salt law focuses on two places, one is Hedong, which is rich in salt solution, and one is in the south of the Yangtze River, which is rich in sea salt. The situation in Hedong is good, adjacent to Gyeonggi, and Yanshi is relatively stable and easy to reform. But the south of the Yangtze River is not clear, the local scholars are numerous, and the land of Jianghuai is extremely rich, but it is also a pool of muddy water. If you want to implement the salt law in Jiangnan, local scholars, gangs and other large and small forces should be the first major resistance. You prepare quickly, and in five days, you will go down to Jiangnan and gnaw this most difficult bone, and there is nothing else to worry about."

Li Pojun said bluntly, straightforwardly. When the two of them listened, they also felt that they had a heavy burden on their bodies, and reformed the salt law...... It's just four words, it's easier said than done, Li Pojun is not in charge, and the risks of saying something bad are on the two of them.

succeeded, and Li Pojun has a share of the credit. If it is a mess, then the fault lies with the two of them. Although the imperial court is fully supportive, and all localities must actively cooperate with the government decree, but they go to Jiangnan alone, and the cheese they move is the interests of those black-hearted salt merchants, corrupt officials, and money-sharing gentry gangs.

Salt merchants, gangs, gentry, officials...... These are all opponents of their trip, this time, fighting wits and courage, if they can't defeat them, the salt law reform is resisted and bad things happen, it will be a joke.

Around Liu Gao and the two boasted that Wen Taowu was not inferior to others, but he was also Alexander.

Seeing that the two of them looked cautious, Li Pojun also smiled and waved his hand: "Don't want this expression, it's not that you want to fight alone." Salt and iron can be a division, which is no different from the Department of Land and Resources, and the officials of the Department of Resources can be recruited to help, in addition, the imperial decree was issued yesterday, no matter how bold they are, they dare not resist the decree, besides, I will also follow, hidden in the shadows, although I have no other powers, but I don't think they dare to mess around."

Saying this, Li Pojun is not very sure, prince? Count Mao, his biggest position is the general of Shence, but the Shence army can't go with him. The other salt and iron envoy is only a positive five-grade envoy, and he has no military and political power, and in the local area, local officials may not necessarily give face.

As soon as the words fell, the guards came to report, the angel arrived, Li Pojun raised his eyebrows and smiled, just finished speaking, if nothing else, the official came.
