With that list, Li Chao went directly to the palace. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Li Shimin is with Cheng Qian, as well as Empress Changsun, Li Tai, Li Ke, Li Kuan, etc., and the family is soaking hot pot. Since coming to Xiangyang, Li Shimin often has to share the hardships with the people, eat locust cakes and eat wild vegetable paste, this image of Mingjun has been erected, but there are also a little sequelae, that is, the mouth and stomach suffer.

Today, Cheng Qian made a leg of mutton, and then Zhang Luo wanted to personally make a mutton hot pot for Li Shimin and his wife, as well as the brothers. Li Shimin was greatly moved by the prince's filial piety, and rarely put down the official duties in his hand, and worked with the queen to give the prince a hand, cutting mutton, and making hot pot bases, and cutting side dishes.

After Zhang Luo for a long time, the family finally ate mutton hot pot.

"It's better to come early than to come early, Wen Yuan, sit down and eat mutton together, the prince is filial piety, today I personally have this pot with the queen and his younger brothers and sisters, I am very moved, you can also eat together."

Li Chao refused with a smile.

"Your Majesty, the minister just ate roasted pork belly at home, and halfway through the meal, he encountered a major event, which was too serious, and the minister had to rush to disturb His Majesty's family fun."

Li Shimin slowly put away the smile on his face, if he can make Li Chao say something too serious, it must be extremely serious.

He got up, "Let's go, let's talk over there." ”

The two sat on the coffee table on the other side, and Empress Eldest Sun also put down her chopsticks and came over to pour a cup of tea for her husband and father-in-law Li Chao.

"Thank you, Queen."

The eldest grandson smiled slightly, very graceful and generous, "You monarchs and ministers talk about political affairs slowly, and I will accompany the prince and them to continue to eat mutton." ”

Li Chao didn't dare to look at the back of the eldest grandson.

In fact, the eldest grandson queen is the kind of person who doesn't make people want to commit crimes, but she always has the feeling of being a big sister next door. Unique temperament, special understanding of people, getting along with such people will make people calm and peaceful. Li Chao knew that her nickname was Guanyin, but he didn't know her name.

She didn't think to explore, in this era, a woman's boudoir name is also a kind of privacy, and it is quite rude to inquire indiscriminately, let alone explore the queen's boudoir name.

"Your Majesty is really a blessing, marrying such a virtuous and virtuous woman as the queen's mother, which makes the ministers envious."

Li Shimin snorted angrily, "The Cui family is also a famous housekeeper, but what about you?" You are talented, and the waves are boundless! ”

was reprimanded by the emperor, Li Chao could only bow his head and accept it. The underground relationship between him and Li Xiuning has now been slowly unraveled. Li Yuan knew, Cui Yingying knew, Li Shimin also knew, and now many people in Xiangyang know it.

This matter is a recent hot news, and those officials and nobles have taken this matter as a talking point one by one. When Li Shimin knew about this, he was as annoyed as Li Yuan.

Especially when he knew that Li Xiuning had decided to be Li Chao's lover in the future, he became more and more annoyed. But it's useless for them to be annoyed, Li Xiuning is Wang Ba is angry.

In fact, even if Li Xiuning doesn't insist on this matter, Li Shimin doesn't know what to do. Li Chao, a confidant and important minister, did he want to force Li Chao to divorce his wife in the end because of his affair? Or is he going to give Cui Shi to kill himself? With his understanding of Li Chao, this thing is simply impossible.

Li Chao will not divorce his wife, and if he dares to give Cui's suicide, Li Chao estimates that he will have to fight with him, and it is possible to turn against the sky.

Therefore, hate is hate, and after hate, you can only sulk.

Li Shimin was angry for several days, and was finally persuaded by the queen, since the princess herself is willing to choose such a result, then how can they outsiders interfere too much.

There is a way to be full of love and water, the princess doesn't care about the name, and Li Chao does have feelings for the princess, all kinds of things in it, outsiders can say it thoroughly.

"Tell me, what the hell is going on." was angered by a topic, and Li Shimin didn't have a good face. "Your Majesty, it's a big deal, more than 100 big families in Xiangfan want to make trouble."

"Plotting rebellion? The big family in Xiangfan City, what is going on? Li Shimin felt inexplicable, how could such a thing suddenly happen. And he hadn't heard anything beforehand.

And it shouldn't be, now that he is stationed in Xiangyang, the imperial court has upgraded Xiangyang Prefecture to Xiangyang Mansion, and Li Chao, the assassin of the assassination, has also been promoted to Mansion Yin. In fact, Xiangyang City is already equivalent to the original Jingzhaoyin of Chang'an. Not only has the level been upgraded, but the number of troops in Xiangyang, various defenses, public security, and so on have been improved by several grades.

Just with a group of big families in Xiangyang City, they want to make trouble?

Just kidding, what can they do?

Li Chao took out the list and handed it over.

One by one, one by one, with red handprints, with names and surnames on them, all of them are famous gentry in Xiangyang, and some people, Li Shimin has also met them.

"What the hell is going on?" Li Shimin asked with a perceptive face, even if there are more than a hundred local small wealthy clans, even if they really want to make trouble, but since they have found out, they will not become a threat. What Li Shimin wants to know is why.

Why are these places so strong that they will take this step.

Regarding Li Shimin's question, Li Chao also asked himself.

On the way to Yuliang Zhou, he actually kept asking himself, why? Actually, when you think about it, it's quite simple.

It's just that because of the cheese of the heroes, these people's interests are damaged, and they are unwilling and reluctant, they want to mix the water, and then come to fish in the water. To say that these people want to rebel and overthrow the Tang Dynasty is to look down on those people.

They just want to set it on fire, and they don't think about it or care about how far it will burn after it is set up. They just think that after the fire starts, the court will have to put out the fire, and the court will not have so much energy to take care of them.

At that time, the imperial court may still have to rely on their power to abolish all kinds of harsh policies against them.

In order to protect their own interests, they are willing to take risks.

It may seem incredible, but it's just the way it is.

"Your Majesty, the imperial court bought grain from the big households, took over the local Yicang granary, and unified the price of grain, and even almost gave and bought the grain from the grain merchants. In addition, the prohibition of usury in disaster years, and the refusal to release relief grain to hidden households and slaves without household registration, can be regarded as greatly detrimental to their interests. ”

Li Shimin frowned, "Natural disasters are at the head, everyone is in trouble, and at this time, we must work together to tide over the difficulties." They are just small losses, but looking at the overall situation, in fact, their small losses are also to prevent the turmoil in the world from bringing them greater losses. ”

"Your Majesty, some people only talk about immediate interests, so you don't care about the overall situation. They only saw how much money they had earned by being bought and their grain. After seeing that they were not allowed to lend usury, they lost the opportunity to take advantage of the natural disaster to wantonly lend and annex land and property to buy slaves, and they would not care about the life and death of other people, and they would not care about the overall situation of the imperial court. ”

Li Shimin also knew this in his heart, but when he heard that these powerful people dared to plot chaos and burn the relief granary because of these new rules of the imperial court, the anger in his heart still could not be calmed.

They have touched his bottom.

These heroes have sung against Li Chao before, but Li Chao just punished him a little.

But this time, Li Shimin doesn't plan to just forget it.

"Wen Yuan, on this, one is counted as one, and one is counted as one, I will all raid their homes and exterminate the clan!"

The puppet was furious, and blood splattered five steps.

And when the Son of Heaven was angry, it was a bloody stream.

The emperor was really angry, it was the wrath of the real dragon.

More than 100 places are small and strong, in Xiangfan, maybe it will be the same as the sky. But in the eyes of the Tang Emperor, it was just a group of praying mantises and a group of grasshoppers. Say extinguish and extinguish!

"If they are not willing to sacrifice even the slightest, then they do not want to exist in this world. Go underground, to hell! ”

Li Shimin sat there, listening to the emperor's roaring and whining, and did not speak.

The emperor wanted to kill these people and raid their homes, but Li Chao did not persuade them.

He didn't want to persuade at all, why should he persuade them, these people deserve it. Killing them can not only deter those dishonest guys, but also copy a large amount of food.

He had just promised to give 20 million stone relief to Henan and Hebei, and he was short of 20 million stone all of a sudden. For the time being, there is no shortage of food, but there will definitely be a shortage later.

After Li Shimin finished scolding, Li Chao got up.

"Minister Li Chao commands!"

Li Shimin was a little hesitant to listen to Li Chao accept the order so simply at this time. He thought that Li Chao would persuade him.

"Do you think my will will be too harsh, more than 100 families, all of them have been raided and exterminated, will it be too widely implicated?"

"Your Majesty, in troubled times, you should use heavy canons, and drums should be heavy mallets. Everyone is responsible for their own actions, and these more than 100 are basically the heroes who openly resisted the government's laws and regulations last time, and I gave them a chance last time, and let them go with a little punishment. But now, these people have not only not repented, but have become even worse, how can such people give them another chance? If you give it another chance, it's called indulgence, where is the majesty of the court? What is the discipline? ”

"For these people, they should be swept away like the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves."

Li Shimin finally nodded, "Go ahead!" ”

Li Chao said goodbye and left.

After leaving Yuliangzhou and returning to the Yamen of Xiangyang Mansion in Xiangyang City, Li Chao directly called Shangguanyi Wang Xuance and a few people, and asked them to take the emperor's will and his orders to go to various military camps to transfer troops.

Zheng Ji was left in the yamen just now, and he was not allowed to leave, and he was upset and anxious when he saw that Li Chao was going to transfer troops as soon as he came back, and he also guessed the result.

"Xiangguo, my Zheng family really has nothing to do with this matter!"

Li Chao despises people like Zheng Ji, but on the surface, he still wants to give this kind of person some sweetness. If it weren't for this guy this time, how could Li Chao have solved such a big case so quickly. If you can't be held accountable, you will really be succeeded by these bastards and burn down one or two granaries, even if it is a loss of one stone of relief grain, this is also a loss.

"Don't worry, the Zheng family is not only innocent but also meritorious this time, and you will be rewarded as you deserve."

"Xiangguo, I don't know how the imperial court will deal with those chaotic parties?"

Li Chao snorted, and went back to the four homes murderously, "Raid the family and exterminate the clan!" (To be continued.) )
