Some scattered sounds of fighting could still be heard vaguely in the palace, but these scattered sounds of fighting were meaningless to the overall situation, just like leaves under a huge wave, which were so small that it was difficult to attract the attention of others.

Huangfu Song, who lost an eye, was escorted out by Hua Xiong.

Dong Zhuo once wanted to kill Huangfu Song, but because his son Huangfu Jianshou had some friendship with Dong Zhuo and Dong Zhuo loved it, he finally left Huangfu Song alive.

However, at that time, his heart softened for a while, and in exchange, the family was wiped out by Huangfu Song, but it was precisely because of this that when Hua Xiong led his troops to surround the Huangfu family, no one could intercede for him.

Huangfu Jianshou's favor can be used on Dong Zhuo, but not Huaxiong. For Huaxiong, all he can remember is that Huangfu Song brought his troops to exterminate the Dong family.

No one knew whether Huangfu Song had any regrets when he watched his entire family, like the Dong family, be beheaded to death. There are many grievances in this world that cannot be sorted out.

The Wang family was also wiped out. At least the Wang family in Chang'an was wiped out.

A drizzle started to rain in the sky, and Lv Bu took Xu Rong, Wang Fang, Niu Fu, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, and Li Meng into the Weiyang Palace. The process of change did not shed too much blood, and Lu Bu wanted to ensure the vitality of the army as much as possible.

The Imperial Army, the Xiliang Army, the Qiang Army, and the Bingzhou Army were all Lu Bu's next trump cards in Guanzhong.

"My minister, Lu Bu, please see Your Majesty!" Outside the main hall of Weiyang Palace, Lu Bu stood tall and said loudly to the main hall.

"Your Majesty, General Lu is here." Yang Li had been by Liu Xie's side the whole time, and when he heard Lu Bu's voice, there was not much excitement on his face. Next, the city of Chang'an was going to change again.

Liu Xie was very frightened, and there was even a bit of numbness on his little face.

When Dong Zhuo was there, he was very afraid of Dong Zhuo. After Dong Zhuo was killed, Liu Xie thought that he was free. As the emperor, he could exercise his rights as the emperor.

However, in fact, the power of the court was held by Wang Yun. Although Wang Yun was much more polite to him than Dong Zhuo, whenever he and Wang Yun disagreed, Wang Yun's attitude would be extremely tough!

He used to be a puppet, but now Wang Yun is defeated and Lv Bu is here, but Liu Xie no longer has any expectations for his future.

"Biography!" Liu Xie, who was only twelve years old, had a mature and calm expression on his immature face, looking up outside the hall.

"Let's go to the hall, Chuanwei Lv Bu!" Yang Li raised his head, and a slightly shrill voice echoed in the hall.

Lü Bu entered the hall with a group of generals, came under the jade steps, and bowed to Liu Xie: "My minister, Lu Bu, see your majesty!"

"Aiqing, calm down." Liu Xie stretched out his hand to help him, motioning for Lu Bu to get up.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lv Bu got up and said to Liu Xie, "Your Majesty, Wang Yun, Huangfu Song and others have already been executed against the Party, and now the people of Chang'an are not stable, I would like to ask Your Majesty to issue an imperial edict to reward these soldiers and soldiers, so as to reassure the army and the people! "

Two months ago, after Wang Yun killed Dong Zhuo, he said the same thing. Unexpectedly, two months later, Wang Yun replaced Dong Zhuo's position. This change of power is really unpleasant!

Liu Xie looked at Lu Bu and suddenly wondered how long Lu Bu would stay in this position?

"Let the general be in charge of everything. I have been feeling a cold recently, and the imperial doctor said that I need to rest." Liu Xie looked at Lu Bu and smiled.

Anyway, I can't be the master myself, so I will completely delegate power to Lu Bu. Maybe Lu Bu will be like Wang Yun, and he will be mad when he gains power, but I don't know where the next stop for the change of power will be.

"Since Your Majesty's body is ill, the minister will make a short story. In addition to awarding meritorious soldiers, there are two other things that need His Majesty's permission!" Lu Bu said solemnly.

"Oh?" Liu Xie looked at Lu Bu curiously: "The general has something to say, but it doesn't matter."

Although Lu Bu's words and actions give people a sense of a tough bridge and a horse, his attitude is still comfortable.

"One is to ask Your Majesty to rehabilitate the Taishi. Although the Taishi has done it, he has also made great contributions to the court. The extermination of the three clans should not be the fate of the Taishi!" Lu Bu said solemnly.

This was the last thing he could do for Dong Zhuo. After all, the Dong family's blood was broken, and only the name was left.

Liu Xie thought for a while. After all, he was already dead. Although Dong Zhuo was domineering, he was able to ascend to the throne. In fact, he had to thank Dong Zhuo. It was just that the throne was a little uncomfortable.

"Alright, I will write with the Taiwei and write an ordinary edict for the Taishi!" Liu Xie nodded and replied, "But I don't know what the second thing is about the general?"

"This matter is a public matter, the land tax mentioned by the Taishi when he was alive, the minister has changed these days, and the minister will have someone to measure the fields in Guanzhong. All private fields that are not part of the imperial court need to be measured. No matter how big or small it comes, it will be handed over by head. Besides, criminal officials such as Huangfu’s family and Wang’s family should be confiscated and placed by the imperial court, and no one should take it personally.”

During this period of time, apart from preparing to counterattack Chang'an, what Lü Bu did the most was to formulate a new tax law. Dong Zhuo discussed with the courtiers before, but the result was always pushed back by various reasons.

But in fact, it is not difficult to do. Now Lu Bu has an army of 100,000 people, and these 100,000 troops are lined up in the middle of the customs. As long as the local tyrants dare to stop the land measurement and tax collection, they will be seized immediately, and those who dare to resist will be killed on the spot.

How can it be possible to reform the land tax system and satisfy everyone at the same time? So this time Lu Bu wanted to promote the land tax reform. He never thought about arguing with those courtiers. The emperor nodded directly, and Lu Bu could implement it.

Although Liu Xie was young, Dong Zhuo had been arguing with the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty for more than half a year without any results. Now Lv Bu came up to do it directly, which made Liu Xie a little worried: "General, whether these things should be discussed with the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty. Make a decision after deliberation?"

"Your Majesty, many things cannot be satisfied by everyone, but most people can be satisfied. However, most of the people here do not include the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty!" Lu Bu looked at Liu Xie and said solemnly.

"Oh?" Liu Xie was interested. It was the first time he heard such remarks: "Why is this?"

"Eighty percent of the farmland in the world is in the hands of aristocratic families. Why should they be taxed on the per capita basis? Because this way, they can pay a lot less. The per capita tax seems to be fair, but the family has thousands of acres of fertile land, but only pays hundreds of dollars. The poll tax, the same number of people may have only a few hundred acres of land in their hands, but they have to pay the same tax, does Your Majesty think it is fair?"

"No wonder it's always said that the tax is less." Liu Xie said in a panic, no one had ever explained the tax issue to him like this.

Originally, he didn't want to talk to Lu Bu, but at this moment Liu Xie found that although Lu Bu's eyes were scary, it was the easiest to communicate.

"This reason seems very simple, why has no one asked about it before?" Liu Xie asked curiously.

"It is these noble families who set the tax law. As the beneficiaries, why do you say that? If the court is really short of money, they can donate the property that should belong to the court to the court, and they can get a good reputation. Why does Your Majesty think they should change the tax law?" Lu Bu laughed.

"When the general laughs, it doesn't seem as scary as the rumors say." Liu Xie felt a lot more relaxed, and looked at Lu Bu curiously. According to legend, Lv Bu can make children cry when he laughs. ...a tyrannical feeling, but it's also pretty, not as scary as the legends say.

"It's a rumor, how can you believe it?" Lu Bu laughed, his smile was really scary before.

"I don't know if the general is going to take any positions?" Liu Xie looked at Lu Bu and asked.

"The Weiwei is enough. The minister came here this time, just to seek the seal for these hard-working soldiers. As for the minister, there is no need to seal it again." Lu Bu shook his head and said. The military power is in his hands, and he will take the opportunity of reforming the land tax to take the financial power in Guanzhong in his hands. In this way, the power of the court is basically in his pocket.

The brief contact made Liu Xie know and understand Lu Bu a little more, and he didn't feel tired at the moment. He studied with Lu Bu who is suitable for any position and why he should take this position.

Lu Bu knew the little emperor's mind to some extent, but he didn't break it. He studied it seriously with him. For example, Zhang Liao's Western Regions Protector and Gao Shun's Northern Army General were newly established, and their official positions were not too high~www .lightnovelpub.net~ But they all focus on elite soldiers.

In addition, Hua Xiong, Niu Fu, Duan Xun, and Xu Rong were promoted to generals, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, Li Meng, and Wang Fang were promoted to Zhonglang generals, Xu Rong was in charge of the Chang'an garrison, Hua Xiong was in charge of patrolling the Quartet, and Niu Fu and Duan Xun belonged to the garrison. Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, Li Meng, and Wang Fang were responsible for the specific garrison of Jingzhao, Fufeng, Feng Yi, and Hongnong.

In addition, Hou Cheng, Wei Xu, Song Xian, Cheng Lian, Wei Yue, etc. Lv Bu's original team were also promoted, and they became officially titled captains. They were stationed at Wuguan, Tongguan, Chencang and other important passes. Although the five were captains, But he also has a lot of military power.

In short, in this award, Lu Bu tried his best to make a bowl of water as flat as possible, and the participants all had meat to eat, but it was impossible to cover everything.

The monarch and his ministers discussed in the Weiyang Palace for half a day, and after all the awards were settled, Lü Bu immediately ordered people to start drafting the edict, preparing to print it, and distribute it tomorrow at the latest to reassure the army.

As for the land tax, it's actually not that difficult. Liu Xie has prepared an edict and handed it over to Lv Bu, and Lv Bu can proceed directly to arrange it.

Although Guanzhong is more prosperous than Xiliang, the main source of income is farming, which is why Dong Zhuo is so seriously stuck. The first thing after that was to invite an edict to Liu Xie, and then to reform the land tax.

As for whether the Chang'an scholar will fight back, that's for sure, but so what? If he could not pass this test, he would be in a quagmire like Dong Zhuo, unable to extricate himself.

No matter what, if this first step is taken, the next road will be easy!
