"Your Highness...Liu Hui's first big victory in a row, killing 200 enemies and capturing more than 100 enemies... Among them is You Shaohu, the younger brother of the barbarian leader...!"

Xue Rengui bowed and bowed.

"Ruguilian did a good job, but this is just the beginning. Don't be proud and contented. There are big battles and tough battles waiting for Ruguilian to do so. This time, I will reward each person with 100 points...!"

"Thank you, Your Highness...!" Qin Shaoyu quickly smiled and bowed.

At this moment, You Shaohu was also brought up. At this time, You Shaohu was tied up all over his body. As soon as he walked in, he shouted loudly after seeing Li You: "If you want to kill, kill, cut it, don't talk nonsense... Labor and capital don't want to have any conversation with you Tang people."

Looking at You Shaohu, Li You looked at the other party with some confusion: "Why... the Tang Dynasty has always been kind to the Liao people. We have never done anything bad to you. Take your taxes as an example. The Liao people's taxes are only less than half of the Han people.

And if you really can't afford to make friends, our Tang Dynasty will also be exempted. There is nothing wrong with our Tang Dynasty's management of you?"

Li You didn't understand why these tribes of the Imperial tribes were so disgusted with the Tang Dynasty. In fact, the Tang Dynasty's policies against the Imperial people were very good. According to the "Tongdian-Food and Food Document", "According to the Imperial tribe, the tax on the various states in Lingnan was: one stone was two dou, the second household was eight dou, and the lower household was six dou. If the Yi Liao household was half lost."

"Tang Huiyao" also records: "Everyone and the wujiao households are all subject to half taxes. When water, drought and insects are injured, the damage is caused by disaster. The damage is 40 and the damage is exempted from rent, the damage is 6 and the adjustment is exempted from adjustment, and the damage is 7 and the damage is 7 and the teaching is all exempted from all."

In other words, in the Tang Dynasty, the Liao people also had to pay taxes, but basically only half of the taxes paid by the Han people. These taxes were collected by the Liao leaders (similar to later local officials) and paid to the central government's finances.

Judging from the existing information, the Liao people in the Tang Dynasty paid half of the taxes on the Han people... and the Tang Dynasty also considered that many Liao people were unable to pay taxes and were just self-sufficient.

Therefore, in the process of implementing the expropriation, the rulers of the Tang Dynasty also frequently implemented reductions and exemptions to their subordinates. This reduction and exemption could basically be maintained from the early Tang Dynasty to the end of the Tang Dynasty.

For example, the "Tongdian" stipulates that "foreign people who have been converted will be converted for ten years", which means that the Liao people did not have to pay taxes within ten years since they became a registered household registration and a citizen, so the Tang Dynasty's tax management of the Liao people was relatively relaxed.

In Li You's opinion, you are a little dissatisfied with rebelling. Do you really want the Tang Dynasty to treat you as grandpas to offer you?

But what Li You didn't expect was that You Shaohu looked at Li You and sneered: "Your taxes are indeed very small, but our officials cannot afford them. As long as they cannot afford them, your officials will send troops to punish our villages, and even arrest our children to offset taxes.

After our children are captured, they will be thrown into the flower building. Some of them are not good-looking and will be sent to work as illegal workers. If someone dares to find their own children, they will be killed directly by your Tang Dynasty officials.

You keep saying equality to us and care for us is actually an excuse to deceive us. The hearts of you Tang people are dark, and you are the demons of this mountain.

I still remember the last rebellion. A governor of your Tang Dynasty colluded with our leader of our daughters and plundered children from our daughters every day.

Boys and girls want them, and even the governor still raises children of his subordinates in the mansion and does some bad things. Finally, we began to resist and attack Changzhou, Zizhuo, Tongzhou...!

Your court began to send troops, and the Jiedushi personally recruited surrender and made his promise. However, after quelling this resistance, your Jiedushi immediately made a fuss. The governor who should have been executed was merely dismissed.

We left Lingnan with a large number of gold and silver beauties, but our hero was killed by you... So why don't our heroes rebel, this noble official of the Tang Dynasty?"

After saying this, Li You here also frowned slightly. It is true that many officials in the Tang Dynasty who governed the throne state regarded themselves as the Celestial Kingdom and looked down on their subordinates in their bones. When dealing with ethnic affairs, they often liked to use simple and crude high-pressure methods, which inspired ethnic conflicts.

So after several rebellions of Liaoren, Li Shimin personally issued an edict to the officials who governed the jailed prefectures and said: "Liu is in danger of the mountain and should be defeated with kindness and trust. He threatens him with his military power, and is it a good intention to be a parent?"

However, even so, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and the officials still do their own things, which has led to the increasing conflicts. Wang Xu also told Li You a lot of such things.

"Do you know now that any other officials have participated in the robbery and sale of your teachers and children?" Li You asked at You Shaohu.

"Of course... Guangzhou, Guizhou, Rongzhou, Yongzhou, Jiaozhou... There are places for sale in any prefecture. Can't you see it yourself? As long as you really want to go and see it, you won't come to ask me!" You Shaohu looked at Li You and said viciously: "We attacked Sangcheng, someone said that my sister, who is only ten years old, appeared in Sangcheng, but we didn't find it.

But if we don’t give up, we will continue to attack other places until we find our relatives. You killed one of me and there are thousands of people, and our people will be killed...!"

You Shaohu roared at Li You crazily. You Shaohu originally thought that after he roared, he would definitely be slashed by Li You, but what You Shaohu didn't expect was that Li You suddenly said, "Relax..."

"Release the tie?" Everyone was stunned. However, no one dared to disobey Li You's Jun order, and You Shaohu was soon released. To be honest, You Shaohu was foolish at this time and didn't know what Li You meant to do this.

"What is your sister's name? Do you have any special characteristics? And where she may be caught? Explain it clearly one by one, and I'll help you find it."

"Ah...you want to help me find my sister?" You Shaohu was stunned.

Li You walked over and bowed apologetically to You Shaohu, saying, "I apologize to you here. There are some bad things in the Tang Dynasty. I hope you can give us the Tang Dynasty a chance. My fifth prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li You, King Qi, swears again that he will seek justice for your people.

For example, when people live in various states outside the ridge, they share the same customs as the barbarians, and they plow fire and wove water. They are hungry during the day and are hungry at night. They are forced to collect taxes. Then they sell goods to men and women. The treacherous people take advantage of it and trust them to seek their profits.

This time, this King Li You made legislation on behalf of the emperor. From today on, from here, Lingnan officials will dare to capture and sell each other and punish them to eliminate their harm.

No matter how high your official position is, no matter whether you are a Han or not, anyone who touches this method will be killed and executed immediately...!"

With a plop..., You Shaohu knelt down, his eyes full of tears...!

Some people must be surprised, why didn’t they directly defeat Sangcheng and tell these people what the use is?

In fact, it is very simple to defeat. As long as Li You sends people to make some catapults and defeats the Sangcheng in front, it is easy. However, if you defeat it directly, the conflict between the Tang Dynasty and the Liao people will be even deeper. As the saying goes, Li You developed Lingnan, not to destroy it, and Lingnan is of great significance to the Tang Dynasty.

The Liaoren residential area in the southwest is connected to the borders of Nanzhao and Tubo, and has an important strategic position.

Only by establishing good relations with these men can we prevent the invasion of these countries, so Li You will do these things. The killing in front is to shock the other party, and the one who promised to look for the You family's younger sister is to give the other party sweet dates.

....................................

An hour later, the captured barbarian soldiers were released back.

When You Shaolong saw his younger brother come back, he immediately came over in surprise.

"It's okay...!"

You Shaolong looked at his younger brother worriedly, and at this time, You Shaohu took out a letter written by Li You and handed it to You Shaolong and said, "Brother... His Highness King Qi wants to truce with us. He hopes you can give him some time and he wants to help us find the little sister."

"Ah..." You Shaolong was shocked and asked with some disbelief: "He would be so kind, Shaohu, you should know that these Tang people are very cunning, we cannot trust them easily...!"

You Shaohu said "Yeah" and said, "I know the prince, but I can feel that this time, His Highness King Qi is different from the previous Tang officials. Why not, you should first read His Highness King Qi's letters...!"

"Is that right?" Although You Shaolong was still confused, he did not resist at this time. Instead, he took the letter written by Li You and started to read it. In the letter, Li You said that he apologized for what the Tang officials had done in the past. Li You would personally help find the young sister of the You family. Li You promised that if someone dared to arrest the children in the tribe next time, Li You would be asked for punishment, whether it was the arrester, the seller, or even the buyer, and his attitude was very firm.

This surprised You Shaolong a little. You should know that this is the first Tang Dynasty prince who cares so much about his children. In the past, those Tang Dynasty people who came here all scoffed at their fellow officials, but this fifth prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li You, King Qi, seemed to be a little different.

After reading the letter, You Shaohu immediately stepped forward and asked, "How is Brother...?"

You Shaolong looked at You Shaohu and said, "A good suggestion, if the Tang Dynasty can really be like the promises of this prince and us, then why do we rebel? Our barbarians are not born to rebel. You must know that every time they rebel, they will die. If we die, our tribe members will also feel heartbroken.

But we are fearless for the sake of our children. But if this Highness of the King of Qi can be trusted, then we can also consider giving in. But all this depends on whether this Highness of the King of Qi can get the younger sister back.

You help me reply...I will give them time, but the time is only three days, and they cannot deliberately delay the time. We don’t have much food anymore, so we can’t wait for them endlessly."

"Yeah..." You Shaohu nodded repeatedly.
