These "Five Tigers" are all in their thirties. They are in the golden age of their lives and are full of energy.

Under their leadership, a good atmosphere of striving for excellence has been formed in the college.

On this day in late spring, Li Simo, then president of the Cavalry Academy, received an imperial edict from His Majesty.

It was a letter wrapped in silk and stamped with the imperial seal.

Li Simo opened the letter and saw only two short words on it: "Holiday!"

He immediately understood what His Majesty meant.

Those veteran generals in the court have fought in many battles over the years and made great military achievements for the Tang Dynasty.

But time is merciless, their bodies and energy are no longer as strong as before, and the road they are on is almost coming to an end.

Your Majesty's decree is not only a concern for these teachers who have been stationed in Mobei for many years, but also a plan for the future of the Tang Dynasty, allowing these outstanding military talents time to return to Chang'an and cultivate more reserve forces for the court.

At the same time, in Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, an event that was enough to shock the world quietly took place.

A law drafted by Zhang San caused a huge storm in the land of the Tang Dynasty.

Zhang San, this name sounds very ordinary. In every village in the Tang Dynasty, you can probably find seven or eight people named Zhang San.

But such an ordinary name, in the eleventh year of Qianwu, became well-known and famous throughout the world.

This really proves the saying.

Who knows if an unknown person today will become famous in the future?

Zhang San had never thought that this day would come.

Before this, no one had ever heard of an official named Zhang San in the court.

He was like a rising star, shining brightly on the political stage of the Tang Dynasty.

All of this stemmed from an important task that Li Chengqian had given him a long time ago.

Li Chengqian was afraid that the people of the Tang Dynasty would have a very hard time living under an unreasonable system.

So he found Zhang San and asked him to write a law that would truly benefit the people.

After receiving the order, Zhang San plunged into this arduous task.

Over the years, he visited countless people, understood their hardships in life, and listened to their voices and demands.

He consulted a large amount of classics and referred to the legal systems of past dynasties. After countless days and nights of hard work, he finally completed the world-renowned Tang Dynasty Labor Law.

This labor law is a monument in the history of the Tang Dynasty. It is the only law that truly stands on the side of the people.

Every provision here reflects care and respect for the people.

For example, the law clearly states that if workers are dissatisfied with their current wages, they can choose to strike to increase their wages.

In the past, this was something ordinary people could not even imagine. In the past, workers could only silently endure meager wages and dared not complain in the slightest, otherwise they would face the risk of being fired or even punished by the government.

Now, they have the weapons to protect their rights, which gives them hope in life.

If people are dissatisfied with their working hours and feel they have no time for themselves, they can also go on strike to increase their rest time.

The law stipulates that the working hours per day shall not exceed four hours.

Two days off every five days.

This regulation frees people from their heavy work. They finally have time of their own to spend time with their families, enjoy life, and pursue their dreams.

This labor law also includes many things that people never dared to think about before.

What excited the people the most was that if they felt that the government was not doing its job well, the court encouraged them to hold flags and parade through the streets and surround the government.

Once such a thing happened, the court would immediately dismiss the official.

This regulation greatly improved the status of the people in political life and gave them the power to supervise officials and participate in politics.

In the past, the people had no choice but to obey the government's decisions and endured them even if they were treated unfairly.

And now, they have the right to resist and the means to fight for fairness and justice for themselves.

When these laws came out, the whole world was shocked.

The local officials of the Tang Dynasty were all in a panic, and their every move was under the scrutiny of the people.

Every official had to smile at the people when he went out and act cautiously, for fear that a little negligence on his part would cause dissatisfaction among the people, leading to people parading and blocking the government office, causing him to lose his official hat.

But for the common people, this was an earth-shaking change, and they were all filled with excitement.

In the past, it was simply a fantasy that the people had the power to dismiss officials.

Now, this dream has become a reality, and they feel the court's attention and respect for them.

This labor law was like a timely rain, nourishing the dry hearts of the people of the Tang Dynasty.

It allowed the people to see a more fair, just and harmonious Tang Dynasty.

Li Chengqian also won the hearts of people all over the world because of this labor law.

In the hearts of the people, Li Chengqian was no longer the emperor who was high above them, but their savior and their hope.

Now, the people of the Tang Dynasty no longer worship those illusory gods in heaven as they did before.

Their homes are filled with portraits of Tang Dynasty officials.

Before this, portraits of Yuchi Jingde and Qin Shubao had long been the first choice of every household.

The portraits of Shentu and Yulei, who were once revered as gods to ward off evil spirits and ghosts, have long been placed in corners by the people.
