Shu An and Li Shimin sat on the ground in a corner of the peach blossom forest, but they did not disturb the frolicking of the eldest grandson Wuji's mother and daughter.

Even Li Shimin didn't have the idea of bothering, especially when he saw his daughter's smile, he couldn't help but have some smiles on his face.

"It seems that Xuan Ce is doing well in the southwest."

Shu An looked at the information in his hand and said, although he had confidence in Wang Xuance, he didn't expect to be able to do this.

Of course, he naturally saw some problems, that is, autonomy, Wang Xuance has the confidence to change some strategies.

As long as the goal is achieved, Wang Xuance is the one who does this, if he is another person, it may not be necessary.

If the previous plan is simply followed, then the probability of exposure is high.

If Datang's purpose is exposed, it will not be so easy to quickly take down Annan.

"Well, he did live up to his father's expectations and Jun Xian's expectations."

Li Shimin also spoke up, and in his words, he was obviously very optimistic about Wang Xuance.

Although the cotton has not yet been grown, Wang Xuance's ability has been recognized by him during this period of time.

This also proves the uniqueness of Li Junxian's vision before, if it weren't for Wang Xuance, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so easy.

"It's not good to have too high expectations, and everyone needs some growth."

Shu An shook his head slightly and said, the current Wang Xuance still has many shortcomings, and it is not so easy to take on the big responsibility.

"Father Ya can give young people more opportunities, this time I intend to let Xuan Ce manage Annan."

Li Shimin didn't care about Shu An's attitude, but spoke up, as if Annan had been determined in his words.

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Shu An frowned slightly, even he didn't understand whether Li Shimin was tempting or really planning to do this.

To be honest, even if Annan is defeated, it will take a lot of time to truly assimilate.

Even if it has the foundation of the same origin before, it is difficult to say that there is such a thing as the human heart, otherwise where is the need for such a thing as righteousness.

If Wang Xuance is allowed to take charge of Annan, it is not impossible, but this is also destined for Wang Xuance to stay there for a few years.

In addition, you must also guard against other surrounding alien races, and know that Annam is not the only one on the Indochina Peninsula now.

Once the Tang Dynasty incorporates Annan into the entire territory, it will inevitably attract the vigilance of the surrounding aliens.

"Well, let the people arrange this matter."

But in the end, Shu An only said quietly, and there was no clear support in his words, but there was no clear opposition.

As for Xuan Ce, if he comes back, he should be the first to get married, and at that time, he will bring his wife wherever he wants, but it doesn't matter.

If Annan's words are in charge of a familiar person, it will be of great benefit to the HNA prepared by Shu'an.

At least you can get a lot of supplies along the coastline, or you can set off from Annam to the South Seas, which is closer.

"Stomp!"

But today seems destined to be a little unpeaceful, and Li Junxian's figure appeared.

"But what's the matter?"

Li Shimin couldn't help frowning slightly, and said, you want to know that Li Junxian will not appear here in vain.

"Your Majesty, the last time you asked people to investigate, there are results."

Li Junxian said with a wry smile on his face, if he had a choice, he would not like to disturb this emperor.

However, His Majesty has explained this matter before, and if there is a result, it must be notified as soon as possible.

In the end, Li Junxian gritted his teeth and chose to come in to report, otherwise he would not dare to commit this crime of bullying the king.

"Last time?"

Shu An on the other side flickered slightly, and he seemed to remember something.

If his inference is not wrong, it should be related to Su Dashan, and the charging for the imperial examination has never happened before.

Li Shimin naturally cared, but what Shu An didn't know was that Li Shimin's inquiry was not only about this matter.

I was sent out to investigate, but I finally came back during this period of time, and after seeing the content, even Li Junxian was a little shocked.

Naturally, I can't wait to find Your Majesty, this matter is not a trivial matter.

"If the father is interested, then it is better to take a look together."

Shu An's soft murmur Li Shimin naturally heard it, and couldn't help but chuckle and said, he also remembered something.

However, as the emperor, Li Shimin naturally doesn't care about this trivial matter, and naturally there is no problem in letting this sub-father look at it.

If it weren't for the last time when Yafu looked for Su Dashan with great fanfare, then Li Shimin might not have cared about this matter.

"Hmm!"

Shu An said, since Li Shimin said so, then he naturally didn't have to be polite.

Anyway, this matter is not a big deal in his opinion, so he has seen it, and he knows a lot about Datang's confidential matters.

Not to mention that these are not important things, but when the two of them fall on the information sent back from all over the place, the final statistics will be counted in the future.

The two couldn't help but be silent, especially Li Shimin's face was a little iron-blue.

"I didn't expect to know if I didn't check, and I was shocked when I checked it."

Shu An shook his head slightly and thought silently, to know that it was only more than ten years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty.

Even many areas have only been included in the ownership of Datang for only a few years, but I didn't expect that the means of collecting money in remote areas are not ordinary.

Although not every remote area has problems, it can't stand the vast territory of Datang, so the number is also not a small number.

If a person is greedy for tens of thousands, then several people add up to more, and there is half a million if you count it.

This is not a small amount, looking at Li Shimin's eyes even 100,000 yuan, he knows that this is a huge amount.

Even Shu An couldn't help but sigh, this means is not trivial, but in remote areas, there are still some means to make money.

For example, colluding with those aliens and the like, of course, just secretly selling some things, this Datang does not stipulate that it is not okay.

But if it is a merchant, it is not it, but it is not an official of the imperial court, then there is a suspicion of collaborating with the enemy, anyway, the hundred horsemen will take these people together.

"I didn't expect my Datang to have these people who don't know whether to live or die."

Li Shimin gritted his teeth and said loudly, there was obviously a lot of anger in his words, and of course there was a little bit of complication.

You must know that before there was no father, the court would only have tens of thousands of yuan in income in a year, and even this emperor would have to save a little.

"Sometimes greed is a terrible thing."

"In addition, Shimin, looking at these numbers makes people have the idea of guarding the border of the Tang Dynasty."

Shu An said with a light smile on his face, he didn't have much to say about these people, anyway, Li Shimin himself would make a decision.
