On September 4, 626 AD (the ninth day of the eighth month of the ninth year of Wude), Li Yuan abdicated and called the Supreme Emperor, and abdicated to Li Shimin. Li Shimin ascended the throne and became emperor.

Li Er took over the throne of the emperor after his ministers worshipped him.

After ascending the throne, Li Er ambitiously issued the first edict, implementing the equal-land system and the rent-in-one system.

The equal-field system and the rent-in-one system can help farmers stabilize production, and sometimes farming can also promote economic development. Pay attention to agriculture and reduce farmers' taxes and labor. "Avoid extravagance and simplify" to control their own enjoyment. Eliminate the bad policies of "few people and many officials" will help reduce the burden on the people. Historically, the implementation of the equal-field system and the rent-in-one system also created a good foundation for the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

The second edict was to formally issue the fiefs of the nobles who were rewarded by the nobles. Whether it was the new nobles or the old nobles, their Yongye fields were all replaced to the frontier, and the enfeoffers of the real nobles were also changed to the honorary fields. In order to appease the dissatisfaction of these old nobles, Li promoted most of these nobles to the real titles, and changed many false seals to real seals, and the enfeoffers of the real seals were also added. The Yongye fields were doubled and the honorary fields were rewarded, so that the land near Chang'an could be replaced and distributed to the people, and also created a good environment for the later business of the Tang Dynasty, forming a role in connecting the past and the future with the equal-field system and the rent-in-one system.

What surprised the court officials the most was that Li Er set up thirty-six states on the frontier of the Tang Dynasty at one time. These states were newly established states. Li Er once named dozens of Xuanwu Gate heroes as the founding governors of these thirty-six states.

Basically, Fengzhou, which had dozens of meritorious officials, was outside the actual control line of the Tang Dynasty today, and was also a place belonging to the Central Plains in history, such as the Hetao Plain, western Liaoning, Annan, and the Western Regions. This also showed Li Er's superb skills. In fact, Li'er did not take out any real money and silver. Whether he could actually get these Fengzhou would have to wait until the imperial court recovered those places, which would also create a good environment for the future expansion of the country.

Draw a big cake for the heroes in the void, so that everyone can support the imperial court to exchange their bans and Yongye fields to the frontier. In the future, can you not support or carelessly regain these places?

Since he was granted a confidant of the Xuanwu Sect, Li Er, a relative of the royal family, also imposed a large number of feuds.

Li Er enfeoffed eighteen royal families, including his own two sons, Li Yuan's group of sons, and several more famous ones in the royal family, such as Li Shentong, King Huai'an, Li Daozong, King Rencheng, Li Xiaogong, King Hejian, etc.

Whether it is a conferred confidant of the conferred confidant or a royal family, there is an explanation later. The conferred conferred conferred confidant governors do not need to be appointed to the states of Fengzhou for the time being, and the conferred confidant kings do not need to be appointed to the vassal state immediately. That's because those states are still in the enemy territory, and if you want to take office and wait, you are going to take over these lands!

In short, it is all big cakes, big cakes painted in the air, and they can't be touched when you see them.

This move shows that Li Er has superb political skills and a very long-term vision.

However, on the surface, Li Er's set is really beautiful and plays generously. He is a hero who has been granted the title of a hero and a royal family.

Many ministers understood Li Er's plan very well. Maybe it would always be just a big cake. If the court really regained these one day, it might be able to replace the land to a further place. However, these people understand that without war, the title would be very slowly promoted. Since people who know it was a big cake would be willing to accept it, otherwise what would the descendants of the future rely on to make achievements.

However, Li Er did a big move this time. He signed a list of meritorious officials and granted the title of the number of the Tang Dynasty. The list of honors was reorganized. There were more than 1,000 new and old, from princes, princes, to princes, and princes, and second-class and ninth-level.

The real title, the false title, the hereditary, the lifelong list of nobles broke the throat of the eunuch who sang and recited at that time, and his voice was hoarse.

Dozens of kings and more than one hundred dukes were as many as those who were granted the title when the founding of the country.

However, without salary, the land was granted and the land was granted. The number of nobles increased several times, and many people were promoted. However, the expenses of the nobles in the court's worship of the nobles were reduced a lot, and there was almost no expense, which just eased the financial crisis of the Tang Dynasty.

The only thing Li Er chose to forget was the fact that her third sister had removed the title. Not only did she forget, her third sister was promoted to Princess Pingyang, with a higher seniority.

The ministers seemed to have forgotten the first choice, and no one mentioned this matter at all.

Li Er became the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty in Taiji Hall and officially became the helmsman of the empire. All the rewards to the new heroes and the comfort of the royal family and the old nobles were implemented according to the established plan.

But before Li Er could prepare his next plan, the Turks beat Li Er with a blow.

Li Er had just ascended the throne for less than two months. Jie Li Khan and Tuli Khan, who learned from the Tang Dynasty's power change, sent 400,000 troops. The entire Turks mobilized them to attack Jingzhou, and then some of them advanced to Xiaoguan. Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, was threatened, and then Chang'an was martial law. On August 24, the Turkic army attacked Gaoling. Li Er sent a brave general Yuchi Jingde, as the general marching commander of the Jingzhou Road, to arrive in Jingyang to defend against the Turkic. After Yuchi Jingde arrived at the front line, he immediately organized a counterattack and fought a fierce battle with the Turkic army in Jingyang. Yuchi Jingde was unstoppable and captured the enemy general Ashidewu Wuchu alive, and killed more than 1,000 Turkic cavalry.

Although Yuchi Jingde won a small victory in the Battle of Jingyang, it could not be changed in the end. The actual problem of strong Turkic military and weak Tang soldiers.

...

"Master, this time the entire Turkic tribe went south and was about to burn the boats. What should we do?" Li Xiuning turned around in front of the sand table, feeling uneasy.

"Actually, the Turks have been tempted for two years. They went south tentatively once every time, and finally snatched it and left. They mainly checked whether the army we led last time would come out to help the Tang Dynasty again." Li Yu analyzed with a ridiculous smile on his face.

In fact, every time the Tang Dynasty court claimed to the people that it killed many Turks and won a great victory, it was not the case at all.

It can even be said that in every battle, the Tang Dynasty did not win at all. Instead, it exposed its true strength in front of the Turks. It also had to continue to fulfill the agreement reached with the Turks and even give money to the Turks and beauties, so that the peace agreement to stop the war was reached.

"There are 400,000 people, this is a historical record that I have never seen before. So many people rented out to invade the Central Plains, what should we do?" Li Xiuning was worried about burning.

Li Yu was not anxious and said, "Now the Tang Dynasty has changed its master, and the Turks have learned the true strength of the Tang Dynasty. If Jie Li Khan and Tuli Khan want to take advantage of the transition from the old to rob him once and avenge his elder brother and his uncle, if they don't do this, the Turks' people will doubt their ability to govern. In the long run, they will not be able to control the revenge of the people."

Li Xiuning browed and said, "Master! The Turks usually choose to be tall and fat in the autumn. Now it is this season again, and with the replacement of new and old, the entire Turkic tribe is coming with all their strength. How can we help the Tang Dynasty?"

Li Yu didn't say help, she had to worry now. Li Xiuning looked at him anxiously, hoping that his master would say, I will send troops to help your brother defeat the Turks, but that guy just analyzed it and stopped talking.

"Master, what should I do?" Li Xiuning asked again with anxiety in her eyes.

Li Yu quietly focused on her for a while, and sneered: "You are now the eldest princess of Pingyang and an older generation. Can you ride on a horse? If you feel that your veteran is not old, you can pick up the sword in your hand and kill the Turks without leaving any armor, okay."

Li Xiuning already understood that the conditions agreed by the second brother have not fulfilled until now, and this guy is worried.

She was also angry about the fact that her second brother had not fulfilled his promise, so she had no choice but to go to the fairy city to practice.

At this time, the Tai Chi Palace was also in a panic state.

"Your Majesty, this time the Turks are going south, so they will definitely not attack from three sides as they did last time. They will definitely choose to make a breakthrough. I think the Turks are most likely to drive directly to Guanzhong and head for Chang'an." Li Jing, the god of the Tang Dynasty, analyzed with a heavy mood.

Li Er said with a gloomy face: "Pharmacist, you have a good judgment. I am exactly this idea. Although the Turks have not received much benefit in the past two years of going south, they have tested our virtuality and reality. In fact, our current strength is far inferior to that of the Turks. If they really want to attack Chang'an with all their strength, they can't stop it at all. The difference in military strength is too big!"

"The emperor is now empty in Chang'an, with only more than tens of thousands of troops, and the nearby garrisons are only more than 30,000. It is extremely difficult to fight against the 400,000 Turkic army. If you are not careful, you may put the Tang Dynasty in the situation of destruction of the country." Li Jing said the truth.

"It is estimated that it will be difficult for the emperor to defend with Jingyang's troops for three days. In this way, the Turkic army will soon advance into Guanzhong, threatening the safety of Chang'an!" Cheng Yaojin also came up with a serious expression at this time to report.

"400,000 troops! Xiaoguan, Wuwei County, Wuyuan County, and Qingzhou will soon be unable to save it. This Chang'an... is really not good!" The ministers said one after another.

Hearing the ministers talking, Li Er sighed, leaned back, leaning weakly on the back of the chair.

After a while, Li Er stood up and walked to the screen beside him, which contained a map of the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, look at Lingwu. As long as you break through Xiaoguan, you can drive along the Jinghe River Valley, the smooth road, and drive to Beijing. Now the troops of Xiaoguan are difficult to defend against the Turkic cavalry. The west of Jing is a flat and open plain, which is most suitable for Turkic cavalry. We have no danger to defend, and we can only let them go to Chang'an City to fight to the decisive battle, but we only have tens of thousands of people. In addition, there are less than 100,000 troops nearby." Li Jing shook his head and said. Although Li Jing called him the war god in later generations, he had no choice but to do anything under absolute power.
