Datang: The prince of salted fish was overheard by Li Er

After making up his mind, Li Shimin finally nodded and said, "Then You'er should choose someone from the Kangjie tribe."

"Remember to keep this trip as low-key as possible, and don't take all the Kangjie people with you!"

"Let the people at Yushitai know about this matter, and get their consent in advance..."

Then Li Shimin added some restrictive conditions.

Although some conditions were attached, all of this was within Li You's plan.

For this brother, what he needs is the contacts of Kang Jie's family. In fact, he doesn't need many people at all, and the most important thing is Kang Jie.

He needs to quickly generate trust with the grassland tribes through Kang Jie, so that those tribes that continue to live in the grasslands can accept Li You's economic reforms as soon as possible.

Although the arrival of Li You this time did not bring Li Shimin a definite answer, it brought him a new way of thinking and instilled a new concept.

This new way of thinking is economic control.

In the past, what he thought most was to control them by force, and then to assimilate them spiritually, making them the same as the people of the Central Plains.

Although the former has been achieved at present, it cannot be maintained for a long time.

The crusade army can be dispatched in seven directions at the same time, but it cannot be maintained forever.

It takes a lot of time to assimilate spiritually, not only can't get immediate results, but also may be backlashed at any time.

And Li You's method of economic control seems to be somewhere in between.

It's fast and effective, it measures effectively, and it seems to cost nothing.

The concept is that those 10,000+ people are Datang's workforce.

Faced with these laborers who came to their door, Datang absolutely had no reason to refuse.

In this way, the exile option proposed by Wei Zheng was virtually excluded by Li Shimin.

The next two options are actually just a matter of the degree of inland migration, so the choice is relatively simple.

In the end, after careful consideration, Li Shimin chose Wen Yanbo's compromise method, and resettled these 10,000+ Turkic people in Shuofang, and at the same time appointed Dou Jing, Minister of Si Nong Temple, as the governor of Xiazhou.

At the same time, Li Shimin set up Shunzhou, Yuzhou, Huazhou, Changzhou, Dingxiang, and Yunzhong in the former Eastern Turkic territory, and appointed Tuli Khan as the governor of Shunzhou to manage other tribes that continued to live in the grassland.

In order to buy time for Li You, Li Shimin delayed for another half a month until Jieli Khan was escorted to Chang'an before announcing the decision in front of him.

"How about Jieli Khan, I am good enough to your people."

Li Shimin's generosity left Jieli speechless, he lowered his head in shame and said, "Emperor Tang, kill me."

However, Li Shimin shook his head.

"Jie Li, you should die."

"In the past, your father's country collapsed and depended on the Sui Dynasty to survive. But when the Sui Dynasty was in trouble, you didn't help with a single soldier, so that the Sui Dynasty collapsed. You deserve to die for this."

"Being my neighbor and breaking the promise to invade the border, these two crimes deserve to die."

"Continuous battles have caused resentment among the tribe, the third."

"Plundering my Chinese people, trampling my crops, the fourth."

"Permit you to get married and delay your escape, this is the fifth."

"Such five crimes, I can kill you."

"But I won't kill you, you and I formed an alliance across the Wei River that day, and I haven't forgotten."

"Now I treat your Turkic people as my own people, and naturally I treat you the same."

"From now on, I will return your wife and children and let Taipu Temple find a place for you. You can live in Chang'an."

What Li Shimin said made Jieli speechless.

Originally, he thought that this time Li Shimin would definitely humiliate him, and then behead him.

Unexpectedly, Li Shimin just reprimanded him.

However, when Xieli thanked and resigned, Li Shimin said: "I heard that your dancing skills are good. Since you will live in Chang'an for a long time, you might as well hand over your dancing skills to the actor in Chang'an Music Square."

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar in the hall.

What happened in the court today is really exciting.

Before Li Shimin counted Jieli's five crimes in detail, everyone thought that Li Shimin was going to kill him, but they didn't expect to forgive Jieli in the end, return his wife, children and family members, and let Taipu Temple provide him with rich clothes and food.

However, just when everyone thought it was too cheap for Xie Li to let it go, Li Shimin asked Xie Li to teach dance.

With such a request, Li Daozong and others who escorted Xieli back almost couldn't help laughing out loud.

Not only the generals, Changsun Wuji and others were not much better either, they all covered their mouths with their sleeves, lest they would accidentally laugh out loud.

Jie Li was also taken aback, and then smiled wryly: "Since His Majesty said so, then Jie Li will naturally not hide his secrets."

"Then I'll be waiting to watch the new program of Chang'an Lefang."

After finishing speaking, Li Shimin took the lead and burst out laughing.

This time, the officials no longer had to hold back, and they all laughed along with Li Shimin.

Accompanied by laughter, Jieli left the hall disheartened and started his journey to Chang'an.

When the laughter was over, Yang Gongren, Yin Guanguo of the Jingzhao Mansion, walked out slowly and said, "Your Majesty, now that the Turkic War is over, and the [-] captives have their belongings, I wonder if the national debt of this war will start to be liquidated!"

"If the imperial court needs help, the Yang family will definitely cooperate with it."

The Yang family of Hongnong, represented by Yang Gongren, is the big creditor of the imperial court this time. After the final draw, the Yang family purchased more than [-] war bonds, which is the largest among many families.

Now that they have won a complete victory, they are naturally most looking forward to the liquidation of the war bonds.

After Yang Gongren spoke, those ministers who held bonds in their hands cast their expectant eyes on Li Shimin.

Only then did Li Shimin feel that it was wise for Li You to start this work after receiving the good news.

Of course, Li Shimin knew what Yang Gongren meant. Although he promised to take out one-third of the spoils, including land, to accept the war bonds, the specific one-third and how the value of the land was judged made a big difference.

Once these aristocratic families are allowed to intervene, there will definitely be problems where there are no problems.

At this time, the eyes of the major aristocratic families were all on these 10 people, and they ignored the matter of liquidation.

But now, when everyone's eyes shifted to this matter, Li You's actions had already begun.

Although Li Shimin didn't know how far Li You had gone, but with Li You's keen eyesight and insight, he would never give these aristocratic families another chance to fish in troubled waters.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Guan, the account department has already started to act on the liquidation matter as soon as the good news came."

"You said yes, Mr. Wei?"

This matter was completed jointly by the Ministry of Household Affairs and Yushitai, and Wei Zheng immediately came out after hearing Li Shimin's question.

"Returning to Your Majesty, as your Majesty said, the relevant personnel from Yushitai and the Ministry of Household Affairs have been away for more than ten days. I think they have entered the Turkic Grassland by now."

After Wei Zheng finished speaking, all the officials were stunned, especially those who wanted to take advantage of the chaos at this time, regretted it.

Seeing the different expressions below, Li Shimin felt complacent again.

In the past, you came up with plans for me to judge and implement, but this time I finally went ahead of you.

'Haha, Yuer is really my big brother! '
