After the heavy rain, the blue sky is as clear as ever.

The seven-color rainbow runs across the sky, extremely gorgeous.

Since the Longxiang Li Mansion talked, the court issued another edict, decree Li Jue as General of the Cheqi and Cavalry, Marquis of Chiyang, the head of the Sioc, the founding of the government, the three dukes, and the country was appointed as the governor.

At this point, Li Jue reached the peak of power. Although he was not promoted to the position of Grand Tutor or Prime Minister like Dong Zhuo and Wang Yun, he was also the most powerful minister and had the power to take charge of the country and assist in the government. His actual power was no less than that of Dong Zhuo and Wang Yun in the past.

The first decree after Li Jue assisted the government was to implement the policy of reducing taxes and supporting the people in the two prefectures of Xiliang.

The formal edict was to reduce and exempt the taxes of the people in the two prefectures of Xiliang for two years, and to distribute seeds, oxen and a certain number of livestock needed for the people to farm. The people and other prefectures and counties are encouraged to come to Xiliang to cultivate and cultivate. The refugees will also receive an additional half a year of ration. Two years later, the tax will be 30% or 70% of the tax, and the tax will never be added.

In addition, Li Jue ordered the county government soldiers under Tietuo's tent to leave 20,000 young and strong soldiers to guard the city, and the remaining more than 30,000 county soldiers to find unowned wasteland and reclaim military farmland. The soldiers of each county and county built rivers and canals for irrigation; built post roads to clear the passage between Chang'an and Liangzhou.

The measures of Li Jue's administration after assisting the government were extremely effective. After the imperial edict was issued, the population around Chang'an tripled sharply in just over a month. In addition to the people hiding in the mountains, there were as many as 100,000 refugees from other prefectures and counties. Moreover, the population of foreigners is still increasing rapidly, and almost every day, people from all prefectures and counties in the Central Plains enter Chang'an, in an endless stream.

This also made Li Li, who was planning this matter behind the scenes, truly realize the powerful appeal of the emperor's edict. No matter how the Han Dynasty declined, the people in the world still trusted the emperor's edict. This indirectly shows that the people's hearts are still on the Han side, and at least the homeless people still have hope for the Liu royal family.

The two-year exemption order prompted Li Jue to quickly consolidate his power to take charge of the country and assist in the government in the court, and won unanimous support from the people in Chang'an City and surrounding areas, which made all the officials in the court who had complaints about Li Jue's regent and shut up and no longer slander and discuss. Li Jue was also quite content with this and no longer cared about the matter of no military in his hands. He handled the government with peace of mind and took charge of Chang'an.

Since Li Jue entered the court to assist in the administration, Li Li rarely went to court, and devoted himself to the establishment of the Imperial College and the martial arts hall. His family had always lived in Meiwu and did not move into Chang'an City. The General's Mansion of the West was the base camp of the Western Liang Army. Li Xuan, Li Ru, Jia Xu and others moved their families into the General's Mansion or settled their homes nearby to facilitate the timely handling of military and political affairs.

Jia Xu and others were puzzled by Li Li's great opportunity to win over the hearts of the people to Li Jue, and felt that it was a pity. After all, reducing taxes for each county in Xiliang for two years is not a trivial matter. This is an excellent opportunity to subdue the people of Xiliang and enhance their prestige. Now such good things have fallen on Li Jue, not Li Li.

Li Li was very calm about this. Because he knew that the people's hearts were very important and wonderful. He could never lose the people's hearts and support of the people; however, it is not the most important thing to win the people's hearts in Xiliang at the moment. It is not easy to win the people's hearts, but it is easy to lose the people's hearts. Born in troubled times, heroes arose, and the people's hearts and opinions cannot control the overall situation of the world, but those who can truly determine the situation in the world are still powerful princes with powerful soldiers. Who is the real controller in Xiliang? Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the actual ruler of the two prefectures of Xiliang and even the Chang'an court is Li Li, not Li Jue.

The reason why Li Li asked Li Jue to take charge of the country and assist in the government was to push Li Jue to the forefront and intend to make it for the people of the world to see. Nowadays, the people who take charge of the country and assist in the government are definitely not good people in the eyes of the people of the world. It is easy to associate this person who holds power in the world with Dong Zhuo, Wang Yun and others, thus becoming the target of criticism by the people of the world and scholars, and will also become the imaginary enemy of envy, jealousy and hatred by the princes. They are thorns in their eyes and thorns in their flesh, and they wish they could not get rid of them.

Because of this, Li Li did not want to be hated by the people of the world and attacked by scholars and scholars. He did not want to expose all his strength to the princes of the world too early. At this moment, since Li Jie envied the power and status of the world, in terms of emotion and reason, Li Li should fulfill him. The beauty of adulthood is to give him the most prominent power in the world, let him take charge of the court and take charge of the country and assist in the government.

In addition, Li Jie had no soldiers and horses in his hands. If he wanted to let him take charge of the government with peace of mind, he had to give him enough support to allow him to enjoy the benefits and fun brought by power. In this way, Li Li gave up the opportunity to win the hearts of the people of Xiliang to Li Jie, so that he could not only consolidate his position, but also appreciate the pleasure of being praised by the people, so that he no longer deliberately seeks military power, and willingly sit in Chang'an and assist in the country in governing the country.

Only in this way can the rear of Chang'an be stable, and the relationship between uncle and nephew can be completely restored to its former appearance, and be intimate and harmonious. Only when the rear is stable can Li Li lead his army to the west without any worries, pacify the two prefectures of Xiliang in one fell swoop, clear away bandits, and truly achieve unification of Xiliang.

Two months have passed in a blink of an eye.

Chang'an City is orderly, with good public security, and people's lives are stable, and gradually returning to its former prosperity. There are many shops, wine shops and inns flourish like mushrooms after a rain. The Fengyue Restaurant in the fireworks and willow alleys also quietly emerged and increased rapidly, singing and dancing, making a prosperous scene!

During this period, Chang'an Imperial College and the Martial Arts Hall were completed one after another, and the recruitment of famous scholars to teach and enroll in school was also carried out at the same time. The day when the academy and the Martial Arts Hall was completed was the time when the two university governments officially taught.

When the two university prefectures were planned, the Chang'an court sent as many as hundreds of emperors to the prefectures and counties, and recruited more than 300 famous scholars from all over the world and famous martial arts and martial arts masters to come to Chang'an to teach. In the enlistment, Gaomi Zheng Xuan and Zheng Kangcheng, Beihai Xiang Kong Rong, Guan Ning, Bing Yuan, Zhao Shang in Henoi, Cui Yan, Wang Ji, Guoyuan, Pingyuan Huaxin, Xiangyang Pang De Gong, Sima Hui and other famous scholars were listed. Among the famous martial arts and military arts masters, the imperial court summoned Lu Zhi in Zhuo County, Huang Zhong in Nanyang and Wang Yue in Nanyang.

It is worth mentioning that Gaomi Zheng Xuan could have avoided the conscript because he was taking refuge in Xuzhou and not in Yanzhou. Unfortunately, Li Li asked someone to pass the conscript to the governor of Xuzhou Tao Qian. As a result, Tao Qian went to the door to invite him, and then sent his personal soldiers to Chang'an. Xiangyang Pang De Gong and Sima Hui intentionally avoided him, but Shenlong saw the head but did not see the tail. Jingzhou governor Liu Biao never found anyone, so the two did not receive the imperial edict. Except for these two people who did not receive the imperial edict, almost all the famous scholars from other prefectures and counties came to Chang'an in two months.

Among these famous scholars, there is another interesting person, namely Hua Xin and Hua Ziyu in Pingyuan. When Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an in his early years, Hua Xin took the opportunity to escape and went to Wuguan to Nanyang. Yuan Shu wanted to recruit him, but he looked down on Yuan Shu and was unwilling to become an official. Later, when he met the Taifu Ma Richan, he was ordered to appease the counties in Hedong. He became a subordinate of the Taifu Mansion and returned to Chang'an. After becoming a subordinate of the Taifu Mansion, he repeatedly asked the Taifu Ma Richan to seek an opportunity for him to release him.

The situation in Chang'an has been changing for two years and has not been able to make progress. Not long ago, he finally found the position of Yuzhang Prefect from Wang Yun. Before leaving Chang'an, he encountered the chaos in Chang'an and could only hide in the homes of the people. Subsequently, the Wuwei Army and the Xiliang Army fought, and all the passes in Chang'an were closed, and Hua Xin could not leave even if he wanted to leave. After Chang'an stabilized, he was just about to go to Yuzhang County and was appointed as the assistant official of the General's Office of the West. He also received an edict from the Imperial Academy teacher.

During the recruitment of the martial arts lecture hall, Lu Zhi of Zhuo County was even more evil. The enlistment edict was issued to Yuan Shao, Jizhou, but Yuan Shao submitted a memorial to Lu Zhi who had just died of illness not long ago. After investigation, it was found that Lu Zhi really died of illness. It happened that Li Li and Li Jue died of illness when they attacked Chang'an. Lu Zhi was not summoned, but the Ranger Wang Yue was summoned, and it was not Wang Yue alone, but a group of Rangers. It is said that these Rangers are disciples of Wang Yue, and the more famous one is Wang Yue's eldest disciple Shi Ah. In addition to Wang Yue, this edict also summoned a general, which was Huang Zhong and Huang Hansheng, Nanyang, sent by Liu Biao in Jingzhou.

Before the official teaching of the Imperial Academy and the martial arts hall, Li Li personally met with more than 200 famous scholars and a group of Western Liang generals who came under the imperial edict, and held a banquet at the general's mansion. During the banquet, Li Li was extremely low-key, acted humble and polite, and respected Cai Yong, Kong Rong, Zheng Xuan and other great scholars. Even some famous scholars who were not angry in their hearts used the alcohol to sarcasm and sarcasm, Li Li was not angry at all, always greeting others with a smile, and acted extremely tolerant and generous.

After the banquet, Hua Xin, Bing Yuan, Guan Ning, Cui Yan and Guoyuan were recommended by Li Li in the general's office to assist Li Xuan and Li Ru in handling the government affairs of the two states of Xiliang. Wang Yue was appointed as the general, Huang Zhong was summoned as the general of the Central Army and the deputy commander of the Jin Qiwei. After the appointment, Hua Xin, Cui Yan, Guo Yuan, Wang Yue and Huang Zhong all had no objection and were happy to accept the order. However, Bing Yuan and Guan Ning did not agree to Li Li's appointment, and seemed to be unwilling to become an official. Unfortunately, Li Li did not give them the opportunity to refuse, claiming that he had ordered people to pick up their families to live in Chang'an. After leaving this sentence, Li Li left, which made Bing Yuan and Guan Ning look at each other and feel extremely angry.

More than 200 famous scholars entered the Imperial Academy to teach, and Chang'an Imperial Academy was well deserved. It truly became the first institution of the Han Dynasty. It was extremely famous and had a great reputation. After formally teaching, Cai Yong served as the head of the Imperial Academy, Zheng Xuan and Kong Rong served as the vice president, and the Central General Li Ru was also the head of the Imperial Academy. The county government soldiers sent a team of thousands of people to the Imperial Academy and obeyed Li Ru directly.

Since then, Chang'an Imperial College has officially started operation, and the first batch of 3,000 students are divided into three stages: junior, middle and senior.

When the Imperial Academy was formally taught, the martial arts lecture hall located in Li's Mansion in Longxiang was also officially opened. The dean was personally served by Li Li, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were vice presidents, Wang Yue served as the provost, the commanders of the various battalions of the main battle camp of the Xiliang Army, and Tietuo, Shi A, Huang Zhong and others were teachers of the martial arts lecture hall. In addition to more than 1,000 children aged about ten, the first batch of students also selected more than 2,000 middle and low-level generals with more than 2,000 teams from the Xiliang Army to enroll. They directly crossed the two stages of junior and middle school and directly entered the three-year military study and practical training.

After finally promoting the normal operation of the Imperial Academy and the Martial Arts Hall, Li Li finally temporarily stepped out and started preparing for the Western Expedition. It was midsummer, and autumn would begin in half a month. —————— (To be continued)
