The Bianzhou area is a large plain, and the areas at the junction of prefectures and counties are also large plains. The comparison between the people in farming is the most obvious.

Because of Li Fei's occupation, the people here are not only exempt from taxes and labor service, but also free grain planting and farm tools, and every four households are given a plowing ox. In addition, before the grain is harvested, they can also receive rice and grain that can support the family every month, so that people's livelihood can be truly stable.

However, on this same plain, Lankao County was under the rule of the Tang Dynasty court, and was also a region with years of war. It was also caused by the anti-military army to make the people live in poverty. Now the anti-military army has been destroyed, but the people here cannot see any action of the Tang Dynasty court to restore people's livelihood. Not to mention how many years of tax exemption, if you have distributed grain and plowed ox, you will even have to increase taxes, which will force the people to death!

The same ordinary people are just separated by an official road. The people under the rule of the King of Beiping such as Bianzhou and Chenliu have so many benefits, and people's livelihood has been restored quickly, and people's lives are getting more and more hopeful day by day. But why are the differences between them, the people under the rule of the Tang Dynasty court so big? The Tang Dynasty court is really disappointing.

Only when there is comparison can the gap be revealed.

Not only the places south of the Yellow River are close to Bianzhou, but also the people of Hedong, which are close to Li Fei's ruled areas such as Chenliu, but also the people of Hebei who are close to Hebei also see huge changes in the people's livelihoods and other aspects.

In the same area that was ravaged by the anti-army, why was the people in Hebei able to recover quickly, but the people in Hedong were still suffering. The Tang Dynasty not only did not have much relief, tax exemption, etc., but also had to increase taxes further, which almost forced people to death.

It can be imagined that people in the two places had the same experience and were equally miserable, but one party quickly resumed production and life and obtained a lot of benefits, while the other party was even more difficult than before.

This has to make people feel frustrated and angry.

why is that!

Because one side ruled Li Fei, the King of Beiping, and the other side was the incompetent Tang Dynasty court.

In this comparison, Li Fei's reputation among the people is increasing, while the reputation of the Tang Dynasty court is declining, and Li Fei is becoming more and more popular.

Luoyang City.

Through the information from the Jinyiwei, Li Fei learned about the changes among the people, and the people's hearts became more and more towards him.

"If I don't expect, as I continue like this, it will take less than two years for the people to be fully supported by the people. Only then will the Tang Dynasty court be able to truly be unable to restore the world, and it will be the time when I replace the Tang Dynasty."

"The prince is very talented and has a great strategy and will dominate the world!" A Niu said in a compliment.

"You also need to add a fire. You send someone to spread rumors in Chang'an. Lu Jing, Duke of Qi, has a good relationship with me. I will save him from his life-saving grace—-"

If Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi were an unparalleled general during the Anshi Rebellion of the Tang Dynasty, then Lu Jing belonged to the "general" level of the second tier. Although Guo Ziyi has not yet served for Li Fei, he is trapped in Liaoyang City. Li Guangbi has served Li Fei. Now, those who can still lead troops for the Tang Dynasty are only Lu Jing and others.

Because of An Lushan's relationship, the Tang Dynasty's distrust of the generals was unsolvable. As long as Li Fei was provoking it, he could make the Tang Dynasty abandon Lu Jing, just like Li Guangbi at the time.

"Yes, Prince!"

In just three days, a rumor spread throughout Chang'an City.

Lu Jing, the governor of Shannandao, who guards Tongguan, was the Duke of Qi. Because Li Fei lifted the siege of Nanyang to save his life, he had a close relationship with Beiping King Li Fei. If one day, Beiping King Li Fei suddenly rebelled, Lu Jing would probably open the gate of Tongguan directly and surrender to Beiping King Li Fei.

Regardless of whether others believed this rumor or not, at least after hearing it, Suzong Li Heng believed it.

"Tongguan has always been letting Lu Jing guard. If Li Fei really rebels, once Lu Jing opens the door, the Tang Dynasty will be over!" Suzong Li Heng was very panicked, his face turned a little pale, and he subconsciously suspected Lu Jing.

"Your Majesty, otherwise another capable future will guard Tongguan to ensure that Tongguan is not lost." Li Fuguo may not necessarily doubt Lu Jing, but Lu Jing has always been incompatible with him, and he also has plans to suppress Lu Jing.

Immediately, Suzong Li Heng really issued an imperial edict to transfer Lu Jing back to Chang'an City, and Li Fuguo proposed a general named Sun Jingyang to guard Tongguan.

This general named Sun Jingyang is not very talented and can lead troops, but because he is from Li Fuguo's party, he listens to Li Fuguo's words.

Due to the absolute trust of Suzong Li Heng, Li Fuguo eliminated dissidents and inserted his confidants. More and more gangs were involved. Some state officials and county officials even needed to bribe some money. Li Fuguo was willing to let them take the title of their own party members and go to the control area.

Yu Chaoen is the second eunuch who is trusted only by Li Fuguo and Suzong Li Heng. Li Fuguo has continuously developed so many gangs. In order not to be completely suppressed by Li Fuguo, Yu Chaoen is naturally not willing to fall behind. With the trust of Suzong Li Heng, he has also been constantly accommodating his confidants and developing his own gangs.

It is not necessary to be a two eunuch-affiliated party member of Li Fuguo and Yu Chaoen. It is only necessary to please Li Fuguo and Yu Chaoen and listen to their words. The Tang Dynasty's politics became darker and darker.

The only thing that has a clear mind is Lin Siming's party.

Lin Siming naturally did not trust Suzong Li Heng, but was suppressed by Suzong Li Heng, Li Fuguo and Yu Chaoen, but Lin Siming had a son-in-law, Beiping King Li Fei and Chen Qiang, who were in Luoyang and could enter Guanzhong at any time. Whether it was Suzong Li Heng or Li Fuguo, Yu Chaoen did not dare to let Li Fei get any excuse to rebel.

So even if they suppress Lin Siming, they can only be under absolute reasons. If there is no reason, Lin Siming will "fight with reason". Even if Lin Siming finds some excuses, he will put pressure on Suzong Li Heng and force Suzong Li Heng to submit.

Some people who were unwilling to defect to Li Fuguo and Yu Chaoen had to seek refuge in Lin Siming's command in order to protect themselves and settle down with Lin Siming's power.

There were also many upright ministers who were originally suppressed, but were forcibly protected by Lin Siming. After that, no matter whether they wanted to do so or not, in the eyes of Suzong Li Heng, they were all marked by Lin Siming and became Lin Siming's party.

Lin Siming's followers, Suzong Li Heng, Li Fuguo, and Yu Chaoen, as long as there is no absolute excuse, they dare not move. They are considered to be a "clear stream" that is sandwiched between Li Fuguo and Yu Chaoen.

Compared with Li Fuguo, the "active" between Yu Chaoen and his party was basically quiet.

Lin Siming watched Li Fuguo and Yu Chaoen make trouble. Anyway, he knew Li Fei’s plan and knew that if this continues, Li Fei would definitely succeed. The Tang Dynasty is really too corrupt, and the eunuchs are becoming more and more powerful. Because of physical defects, eunuchs have psychological defects and are mentally dark, and they are constantly moving towards a darker level with the government.
