The strongest emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Chapter 746 The Golden Temple impeaches Li Tai (second update)
Hearing what Li Tai said, the aristocratic family will eventually become a business family, and even a consortium family will appear.In order to replace the current status of the aristocratic family.

But to use accurate words to describe them, they should no longer be called aristocratic families.Family should be used to describe them more appropriately.

Because at that time, they will check and balance the country with economic monopoly.Rather than using the right to speak in the DPRK and China to check and balance the country as it is now.So it's a bit inappropriate to describe it as an aristocratic family.

"My lord, if it's according to what you said, then it's even more wrong to help them deal with the aristocratic families in the Central Plains. Because leaving them behind may become a new trouble for the lord." Liu Rengui said to Li Tai.

What Liu Rengui said was right, if these aristocratic families would one day become business families, or even consortium families.So why not just nip them in the bud?

"Liu Xiang, these aristocratic families in the country of Yan will never think about challenging the country. Even now, their family's right to speak in the court is equivalent to zero."

"Besides having a little influence in the local area, they can't even think about causing any big waves. So even if they are left behind, they can't become a business family, let alone a consortium family." Li Tai smiled at Liu Rengui Said.

"Remember that my father once told me that any form of existence has a certain lifespan. The princes in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties are almost the same as today's aristocratic families."

"The princes have existed for thousands of years, and finally slowly disappeared into the long river of history. Now the aristocratic family has existed for thousands of years, and I am afraid that the aristocratic family will soon, slowly withdraw from the stage of history."

"But only the form has changed, but the essence may not really disappear. Because as the lord said, they will appear in another form. It is the consortium family that the lord said." Lu Wanda said to everyone.

Li Tai didn't think about it, these five surnames and seven sects had already thought about it, that one day the aristocratic families would no longer be as elegant as they used to be, and they would no longer be able to call the wind and rain in the court.

The five surnames and seven sects in history were in the Huangchao Rebellion at the end of Tang Dynasty.A large number of family members were killed and injured, the rich homes and properties were also destroyed, and the ancestral genealogy that the five surnames and seven clans were proud of was also lost.The aristocratic family declined, and eventually became indistinguishable from the common people, and the status of the aristocratic family was replaced by the landlord and gentry class.

And these landlords and gentlemen are the prototypes of business families and even consortium families.Eventually they developed over a long period of time, and finally when they entered the capitalist society, they began to restrict the state again.

"So in the end it is these original aristocratic families that will become the checks and balances of the country, because they have strong economic expenditures. Therefore, they have unique conditions for transformation at a critical moment."

"Of course, this is just an opportunity, not necessarily a successful transformation. It may even become history." Li Tai said.

"My lord, I intend to use these dignitaries from the Yan Kingdom to restrict the development of the great families in the Central Plains. But I'm afraid these dignitaries don't have the ability to do so." Liu Rengui said to Li Tai.

"Liu Xiang is right. Since they can command the wind and rain in the court, even the father sometimes has to compromise with them. How can these small families be able to compete."

"But if they get help from this king, it will be another result. This king will formulate a development plan for them, and let them develop according to this king's ideas."

"In the end, when their family develops to a certain level, they can use them to restrict the Central Plains family. What must be done at the same time is not to let them escape from my king's control, otherwise they may become a threat." Li Tai said to Liu Rengui Said.

"Then I don't know what method the lord uses to firmly control them. Even if the lord can frighten them, there is no guarantee that the descendants of the lord will have this ability." Lu Wanda asked Li Tai.

Lu Wanda's question is right, that's how their five surnames and seven clans developed.If the monarch who just started cultivating them knows that there will be today, how can he give them that chance.

Because the monarch who cultivates them can make them bow their heads and bow their heads.But the descendants of those monarchs could not control them in the end.In the end, it led to the formation of five surnames and seven sects.

"This king is going to set up a tax office to calculate their annual income, and finally collect taxes from them reasonably. In this way, we can know the development of their family."

"At the same time, we can also set up political offices in their families to control the development of their families. In some cases, we can even directly take them into national ownership." Li Tai said to everyone.

In fact, Li Tai also knew in his heart that these were just symptoms, not the root cause.Everything is man-made, and he wants to rely on himself to protect the future.That is tantamount to a fool's dream.

……

Afterwards, Li Tai came forward, and according to the records on the roster, he began to repay the money that the aristocratic family had invested in this conspiracy.Li Tai refunded the full amount according to the quantity.

And the people Li Tai sent out to return the money were not ordinary people.It was the generals of Li Tai's Imperial Guard.They personally led the troops to return it.

Undoubtedly, he was warning them if they dared to participate in things like the Yan Kingdom.The next time it will be only the Imperial Guards.

When Li Tai exchanged Tang Yuan, he naturally received tens of thousands of Kaiyuan Tongbao and silver.So have enough funds to pay them back.And it did not constitute any substantial harm to Li Tai.

However, these Kaiyuan Tongbao and Baiyin could still be put to great use by Li Tai.At the very least, they can be handed over to Li Shimin, and exchanged for some things they need from Li Shimin's hands.

Li Tai's move completely made those aristocratic families panic.They never expected that the family of Yan Kingdom would choose to join Li Tai in the end.

And also informed Li Tai of the details of their participation in this matter.In other words, they are now completely on Li Tai's blacklist.

And with Li Tai's vindictive character, how could they not be worried.So when Qin Huaiyu and the others sent the money, some families chose not to accept it.

Of course, they didn't want to sell favors to Li Tai, but refused to admit it to the death, and they had participated in this matter.So naturally he would not accept the money that Li Tai repaid.

In some small and medium-sized families, such things almost all appeared.Because they knew that relying on their own family's ability, they couldn't challenge Yan Wang Li Tai at all.So losing some money is better than being held grudges by Li Tai.

But those families with five surnames and seven sects didn't take this matter to heart at all.Unceremoniously put these silver into the bag.And it was very arrogant, as if telling Li Tai, if it wasn't for his sake this time.This matter will never be let go.

Maybe it's Qin Huaiyu and the others who can't get used to the behavior of these five surnames and seven sects, maybe it's because Qin Huaiyu and the others suddenly have a bad taste.In short, there was no need for Li Tai to explain anything, so they gave a powerful counterattack.

That's when you're about to leave, start talking loudly and without hesitation.The content of the conversation was such a large house, how many soldiers would it take to besiege it.Even how much kerosene is needed to burn it to rubble.

And Cheng Tieniu yelled even louder: "Why bother, let me lead the four-spirit Qilin army to kill them now, and keep them safe."

"Third brother is right. When the time comes, you and I will fight each other separately. How about a good comparison to see who is faster?" Luo Tong said to Cheng Tieniu with a smile.

"Okay, when the time comes, the loser will give half of the proceeds to the winner." Cheng Tieniu said with a big laugh.

However, Qin Huaiyu, Yuchi Baolin, and Yuchi Baoqing were willing to be the middlemen.Then he walked away with his soldiers.

This action made the Li family in Longxi, the Li family in Zhaojun and the Zheng family in Xingyang extremely angry.And immediately ordered someone to write a memorial, threatening Li Shimin to impeach Li Tai.

It stands to reason that the Li family in Longxi should be Li Tai's family, and they shouldn't make things difficult for Li Tai.You should even strongly support Li Shimin.

But on the contrary, they are in cahoots with the other five surnames and seven sects, and always put the interests of the family first, and don't care about the people of the world at all.

So Li Shimin also hated the Li family in Longxi, but he had nothing to do with him.As for the rumors that Li Shimin's family did not belong to the Li family in Longxi, it was just that Li Yuan forcibly joined him after he became emperor.

But Li Tai didn't want to get entangled in these things, because it didn't conflict with what he wanted to do at all.Even if the Longxi Li family is Li Tai's family, but they stand on the opposite side of Li Tai, Li Tai will not regard them as his own.

……

Li Tai made such a big commotion, how could Li Shimin not know about it?However, Li Shimin not only did not think that what Li Tai did was wrong, but even praised Li Tai greatly in his heart.

So when Li Shimin received the impeachment memorial from the three families.Li Shimin then asked: "The three of you are talking about He Yan Wang Li Tai, and sent people to intimidate and threaten you. What evidence do you have?"

This question made the representatives of the three families speechless. After all, this kind of threat was only verbal.How to find evidence? If there is any evidence, it can only be witnessed by the parties involved.

But these people belong to their own families, how can they persuade the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty?So for a while, they didn't know how to answer Li Shimin.

But at this moment, Cheng Yaojin stood up and asked loudly: "You said that it was my Cheng Tieniu who threatened you, so why did my son, Cheng Yaojin, come to your house?"

Cheng Yaojin's words made them even more speechless.They originally thought that as long as their impeachment memorial reached Li Shimin.In order to appease the anger of the three families, Li Shimin had to blame Li Tai to some extent.

Maybe this is the fault of the so-called inertial thinking, they are used to pointing fingers at Li Shimin.So naturally they didn't think so much, otherwise they wouldn't directly impeach him.

"Brother Cheng Wang is right. Why did King Yan Li Tai's iron guards come to your house? I am also very curious at the moment." Li Shimin asked.
