Although Li Zhi asked Han Yi to make full decisions, it depends on what happened. Han Yi could not be so stupid that he didn't ask Li Zhi about anything. Regarding money, Han Yi could make full decisions. Anyway, there was no money. However, other things had to be discussed with the emperor and the military. Especially now that Han Yi wanted to streamline officials, it was impossible not to get the emperor's permission first. The ministers were all the emperor's ministers. As for the military, the military took over now. If you don't discuss with them, they would not be willing to slaughter them. Han Yi had no choice but to do anything about them. After all, they were holding a knife, not a pen.

Therefore, after agreeing with the military tycoons, Han Yi immediately went to find Li Zhi.

Li Zhi was delighted when he heard that Han Yi was back so soon. Could it be that he had thought of a solution?

“Simplify the officials?”

Li Zhi was stunned for a moment, but why did he suddenly run to the streamlining official again?

Han Yi said: "Report to Your Majesty, when I am doing business, once I encounter unfavorable capital turnover, the first thing I think of is to reduce expenses, and the same is true for the finance. Nowadays, a large part of the burden on the finance comes from officials. I feel very stressed when I have such a large debt. If I can take these debts into full swing, the financial burden will be much reduced and the ministers will be much easier. Moreover, the officials' land, property, and these can be recovered, and these can be used by the treasury. Not only that, when the court's debt decreases, the credit will naturally increase, and the people's confidence in the court will also increase, which will greatly help reverse the situation. If the people lose confidence in the court, they will not obey the court and will not do anything."

Li Zhi thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "No, good, I should do this. It's because of these wastes that the country has become like this. How much do you plan to cut it?"

He hated those people to die now, and he was stunned just now because he felt that there was no need to streamline officials now, and he could not pay any salary anyway. Now he understood, and he could only say that it was very suitable for me! Don’t say anything, Han Yi obviously wanted to pay the debt, and he would not pay it in the future, and he would not give it to him, and he would take back all the benefits. If you are unhappy, you will come and deal with me. You are just some civil officials who only know how to play with pens. He said that fighting alone would be bullying you, but the problem is that you can’t scold me.

Anyway, the military has taken over now, I don’t need you either.

Han Yi said: "I plan to return to the establishment system of the Zhenguan period. The Beijing officials were only retained between 700 and 800, while the foreign officials were retained about 10,000."

Li Zhi said cautiously: "It also includes military officers?"

During the Zhenguan period, seven or eight hundred people had already included military officers.

Now, everything has to be considered at this time, and the military will definitely not be in chaos.

Han Yi said: "Weichen has just communicated with Sikong and the others, and they all agreed to the military's layoffs. Chen plans to let Sikong and the others preside over the leadership."

Li Zhi nodded and said, "You are more thoughtful, so do it."

"I obey the order."

Han Yi bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I forgot to tell you something to you."

Li Zhi said curiously: "What's the matter?"

Han Yi said: "Your Majesty, I believe that it is your Majesty's body, which is the most urgent task. Your Majesty must take good care of your body. As long as your Majesty's health is good, I can do things well with peace of mind. Your Majesty does not need to worry too much. I have already understood the situation clearly. According to my opinion, this matter has not reached a desperate situation. With the foundation of my Tang Dynasty, it can still be saved."

Li Zhi felt warm when he heard this, and almost burst into tears. He nodded with tears in his eyes, and was sobbing that he couldn't speak.

Han Yi said again: "There is also the queen--!"

After hearing this, Li Zhi waved his hand and said, "You are now concentrating on getting things done, and don't worry about the rest."

"I obey the order." Han Yi bowed and said, "If Your Majesty has no other orders, I will take the blame first."

Li Zhi said: "You go. Oh, my dear, you have to take care of your health."

"Thank you for your concern, I'm going to leave."

After leaving the palace, it was getting late, so Han Yi returned to Beixiang.

Now Beixiang has completely stopped and all the stores are closed. In fact, all the shops in Chang'an have been closed. However, due to Han Yi's arrival, Li Ji sent people to stay in Beixiang early, and the surroundings are also under high alert.

When Han Yi arrived at North Lane, it was empty inside.

At the entrance of the alley, Han Yi got off the carriage. After all, he hadn't been here for several years. Looking at these stores and thinking about the prosperous years of Beixiang, I felt a lot of feelings!

"My benefactor!"

Halfway through the journey, I suddenly heard someone shouting in front of me.

Han Yi turned his eyes and saw Sang Mu, Du Zuhua, Xu Youyou and Liu E coming over. He was very excited for a moment and waved his hand quickly.

"My benefactor! I'm sorry to you!"

Sang Mu quickly walked to Han Yi and covered his face and started crying.

Han Yi frowned and said, "What are you doing? It's not your fault to get things done like this. Actually, you've done a good job. Sister Liu, do you think so?"

Liu E subconsciously said "um", but then glared at Han Yi again and said, "You really haven't changed at all."

"I won't come here if I change."

Han Yi laughed, patted Sang Mu on the shoulder again, and said, "Okay, okay, I'm back now, everything will be fine." As he said, he said to Du Zuhua and Xu Youyou, "If you two are not married yet, then you will go out, I won't take in single dogs here."

Du Zuhua and Xu Youyou looked at each other and smiled foolishly.

Han Yi asked again: "Have you given birth?"

Du Zuhua nodded.

"Male or female?"

"Male."

"No, not bad, this is the only good news I heard after coming to Chang'an." Han Yi sighed and asked Liu E again: "Sister Liu, where are you?"

"You are trying to die!"

"Ha ha!"

Just then, I suddenly heard a snorting softly, "I dare to ask, what is a single dog?"

Han Yixun looked at him and said in surprise: "Why are you here?"

The person who came was Gu Qingcheng.

Gu Qingcheng said: "You haven't answered my question yet."

Han Yi said: "I want to know that you are here, so I won't say that. I will take back what I said just now."

“It’s almost the same.”

"Why are you here?"

Han Yi asked again.

Gu Qingcheng said: "I just knew you didn't care about me at all."

Han Yi said: "I know you went back to Luoyang to pay homage to your mother. I haven't even said anything about you yet, and you won't tell me if you leave."

Gu Qingcheng snorted: "You don't care about me?"

Han Yi rolled his eyes and said, "I will take back this sentence, too."

Gu Qingcheng snorted in dissatisfaction and said, "I really have no conscience. I originally planned to meet Yangzhou before, but I heard that Your Majesty was summoning you back to Beijing, so I turned to Chang'an, hoping to help you some help."

Han Yi smiled and said, "What can you help me?"

Gu Qingcheng's beautiful eyes shining and said, "My handwriting is pretty good."

"If you follow me in the future, you will not be allowed to leave for a moment, including sleeping." Han Yi said seriously.

Gu Qingcheng laughed, then spat again, and asked, "Have you not come back for Princess Yuncheng?"

"Yes!"

"No wonder you are so arrogant."

"You should look down on others less and tell you that you are not allowed to take advantage of the situation."

"I insist on it!"

The two of them went back and forth without any scruples, which made Liu E and the others smiled and shook their heads, but the atmosphere was much more relaxed.

"Brother Xiaoyi! Brother Xiaoyi!"

When I arrived at the backyard, a group of beauties rushed out, Cao'er, Ji Wushuang, Mengsi, etc.

Han Yi excitedly raised his hands and said, "Beauties, brother is back."

Gu Qingcheng immediately said: "It's a pity that I can only see."

"Ha ha!"

Everyone laughed loudly.

Han Yi looked at Gu Qingcheng and said, "That's better than facing Sang Mu every day, Andy Lau."

Sang Mu and Du Zuhua were innocently shot and speechless.

Han Yi asked again: "Why didn't you see Meng'er?"

Liu E said: "Oh, I made the decision to marry Meng'er to the Di family. Meng'er is not young anymore, so I can't wait for you to come back."

"Ouch!"

Han Yi covered his forehead in pain and said, "My dreamer! Sister Liu, you are really, don't you understand the principle that the fat water will not flow from outsiders?"

Liu E gave him a blank look and didn't want to pay attention to you.

Han Yi said to Mengsi and the others again: "Don't rush to get married. I'll discuss with my wife to see if I can marry a few concubines back."

"Pooh!"

"Brother Xiaoyi, you are too bullying."

"Brother Xiaoyi, you are so bad."

"Brother Xiaoyi, you are far worse than Brother Di. Humph!"

"Shenma? Can Di Renjie compete with me? Mengsi, come to my bed, no, in the room, let's make a good argument."

"Sister Qingcheng, please help us!"
