I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

These smart people figured it out right away, oh, it turns out that this guy wanted to clear the way for his son, I got it.

Although they never thought that Li Shimin would make such a big commotion, for the sake of the throne, such a commotion is actually nothing, and this time it seems that it is only aimed at the target individual, but it does not kill the interest groups behind it. Hand, it looks kind of benevolent?

A group of ambitious and smart people came to their own conclusions in this way, and at the same time they finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that Li Shimin is not going to attack the honorable group, so it will be fine.

For the royal family's own affairs, the big guys just stand at a distance and watch the excitement. That kind of thing is already taboo, and whoever touches it will die. Anyway, everyone has no idea to participate in it, so let's just watch.

Sure enough, in the next few days, successive complaints were sent to the court, and the court was as stubborn as ever, as long as it was confirmed, it would accept it unceremoniously.

And with more and more appeals, these princes and princesses who have been restricted from moving are becoming more and more frightened.

They are not fools, they clearly know that this time is different from before, whether it is Qin Wangfu, Lu Guogong's mansion or Li Ke and others, their crimes are actually just some economic disputes and minor matters. .

It was the court, or to be more precise, Li Shimin who was behind the scenes to push them to the stage in a daze, but in fact, those charges were just a joke.

If Li Shimin hadn't been behind the push, in fact, even according to the law, they could pass the test logically, instead of being punished one by one like they are now.

However, what is different from before is that the crimes of the princes and princesses who are being tried today are not the same as before.

Although they didn't kill people directly, there were quite a few lawsuits involving human life, and there were even more cases involving family property and women's robbery.

It can be said that as long as all these charges are in place, it goes without saying that there is absolutely only one dead end.

It was precisely because of this that everyone believed that Li Shimin wanted to use this public opinion to wipe out all of Li Chengqian's opponents in one fell swoop, thereby completely stabilizing Li Chengqian's position as the crown prince.

The fact is also the same. In the court trial for several days, the princes and princesses were allowed to beg for mercy, slander, abuse, cry, and exhausted all kinds of means, but the final sentence was completely as everyone thought. .

The death penalty, everything is the death penalty!

There was no exception, and there was no commutation of the sentence. Just as it was written in the law, the judge did not deliberately impose a heavy sentence, nor did he lightly forgive him. He just sent the person to the guillotine.

Although everyone thinks that this is Li Shimin trying to eliminate dissidents for Li Chengqian.But at the same time, even the top nobles would inevitably start to feel terrified at this moment. If the court can sentence the prince and princess to death, will it be possible to destroy them in the future?

It seems that we should be more honest in the future!

This point has been recognized by everyone. They can be arrogant, big fish and meat, and have fun, but if they still want to act recklessly like before, I am afraid that they don't need Li Shimin and the court to take action. The elders in their family will take action first. Kill them all.

After all, the opposite of one person ascending to heaven is one person's misfortune endangering the whole family. Who can guarantee that there will be no cheating in his family?

Chapter 909 The Killing Intent Behind the Sensation

Just when everyone thought that the turmoil that shook the entire Tang Dynasty would end with the heads of Li Shimin's brothers and sisters.

Li Shimin jumped out again to show the operation.

Even the people who are most familiar with Li Shimin have to express their admiration for Li Shimin's subsequent operation at this time, which is simply too high.

First of all, Li Shimin took advantage of the emperor's privilege to pardon the capital crimes of his brothers and sisters.

If it's just like this, maybe it can be said that it is Li Shimin's routine operation, and it is also to appease Li Yuan who is still staying in Lantian City.

Then the next operation is not something ordinary people can understand.

Li Shimin directly copied the houses of the princes and princesses who committed the crime this time, and then took out money to compensate the large group of victims.

Immediately afterwards, before anyone raised any objections, Li Shimin finally released his big move.

Take back the titles of all the parties involved this time, but the crime is not as good as the family members. Although their wives and children have no royal status, but Li Shimin recognizes their royal blood, they will be supported by internal funds in the future, just like ordinary people. , grow up, live, marry and have children.

As for the parties involved, they will all receive ten years of hard labor. This is Li Shimin's use of his emperor's privilege to fight for his brothers and sisters to avoid death.

Originally, some people wanted to say that this was the imperial power's tarnishing of the rule of law and the destruction of the construction of the rule of law, but then, Li Shimin's big move was not just a big move, it simply broke everyone's perception.

A decree written by Li Shimin himself was published in the newspaper in its entirety without changing a single word.

The content of the imperial decree is very long, but in summary, there are actually only a few items, but each of them is ground-breaking.

It roughly means that from now on, all the children of the royal family will no longer enjoy the princely title, and only the heirs to the throne can enjoy the princely title.

At the same time, all the children of the royal family were raised by their parents when they were young, but they will obtain titles when they grow up, and then choose their own path like ordinary people. There are no restrictions on studying, doing business, and being an official.

The princesses of the royal family are no longer the same as in the past, they can only be "Princess Shang" by the son-in-law. .

Of course, if the princess is capable and willing to come out to work, at least legally, there is absolutely no obstacle.

When everyone saw this will, their first reaction was—fake news, next!

But when I really found out that this matter was not a joke, one by one the princes' titles were cancelled, and one by one the princesses began to live in the husband's house.

People were surprised to find that this is actually true?

Countless people are at a loss. There has always been only one who continuously strengthens the imperial power, but when did he see the emperor's self-defeating arm and take the initiative to take out the power that belongs to the imperial family?

Isn't Li Shimin worried about the fall of imperial power?

After all, in the eyes of everyone, after such a toss by Li Shimin, it seems that there is no big difference between the royal family and ordinary noble families.

Moreover, if the children of the royal family are allowed to live freely, don't you worry that these children of the royal family will make friends with powerful officials and generals, and eventually there will be a battle for the heir apparent?

But the group of people with the most discerning eyes didn't have time to care about the little things about the royal family, and trembled at the very inconspicuous item in this edict.

That is a supplement for the children of the royal family, which means that in the future, the children of the royal family will only obtain titles when they become adults. It is the same for men and women, but the titles will be different.

However, these titles will no longer enjoy fiefs and eunuchs. Instead, internal funds will provide houses and provide a fixed monthly sum of money that is quite generous in the eyes of ordinary people.Other than that, everything else depends on the royal child himself.

You can use this money to live comfortably every day, which will definitely allow you to live a life of a superior person, and you don't have to worry about anything.

You can also start your own business and create an industry, as long as you pay taxes according to the regulations, you will be fine.

It seems that this is very unfair to the children of the royal family. After all, everything will depend on themselves in the future, but at the same time, the shackles on them have also been taken down.

At least the three brothers who are still working in the prison now almost shed tears when they heard the news.

In fact, the few of them are relatively high-minded. They firmly believe that they can find their own way. They didn't have a chance before, but now it's okay, just do whatever you want!

Just follow the same rules as ordinary people, do whatever you like.

The royal children were happy, maybe because they yearned too much for freedom, maybe because they hadn't experienced the beatings of society and didn't know the sinister people outside.

But at least within the royal family, they actually quite agree with this purpose, so even those who are Li Shimin's own children agree with it, and others are still qualified to jump around?Do you really think that Li Shimin is reluctant to kill?

But what about the royal family, those nobles don't care, they are already sweating profusely at this time, it doesn't matter to them whether they are free or not, because they themselves have not been restricted.

But such things as feudal land and food guards are the foundation of their honors!

Why are these honorable families able to turn the tide or stand in line openly when the imperial power changes or when the heroes are divided, and even influence the trend of a battle?

Not only because of things like wealth and connections, but the most fundamental thing is the nepotism they formed with the food tyrants in their own fiefdom.

These people have accepted their rule from generation to generation, and have already become part of their family. They are also confident that when the crisis comes, they will definitely respond to everyone raising their arms.

But Li Shimin's will undoubtedly fundamentally negates their right to rule over these people.

So where do they go from here?

Although Li Shimin has not yet issued an order to remove the feudal lands and eunuchs of the nobles, even the royal family has given up these things. You still want to keep them. What are you planning to do?

You don't even need to think about these people. Maybe the first non-royal member to stand up and give up these things will be His Royal Highness King Qin.

As the only remaining king in the world besides Li Chengqian, the crown prince, when Zhang Nuo really gave up all of this, what would they do?

No one knows when that day will come, after all, Zhang Nuo is still busy overseas.However, everyone knows that that day will eventually come!

Chapter 910 Is the imperial power left behind or is it permanent?

This farce, which has been tossing back and forth for nearly a month, finally came to an end!

Looking back now, people can almost see Li Shimin's methods. Most people thought that Li Shimin wanted to establish the rule of law, but he attacked the imperial power. When people thought he attacked the imperial power and destroyed the city wall, he Turning around made Li Chengqian's position as the crown prince more stable.

When people thought they had finally understood it, they finally discovered that the murderous intent hidden behind it was actually aimed at a large number of nobles.

For a whole month, Li Shimin's idea was realized in four consecutive batches of cases like an antelope hanging horns and a powerful and unconstrained style.

No one except Zhang Nuo could have guessed that Li Shimin's goal at the beginning was to let his children be free to pursue their dreams instead of being imprisoned by the identity of the prince.

But in the process of doing it, maybe it was Li Shimin who did nothing for one thing, or maybe Li Shimin suddenly discovered that there was an opportunity in it, so he simply put all other messy goals in the process.

It is also thanks to Li Shimin's proper planning, and the fact that he is in the middle of Chang'an to command.Otherwise, Zhang Nuo was really worried that the car would overturn by accident.

But after the matter was over, many people began to carry forward the spirit of hindsight, and beeped at the whole matter. The point they discussed most was, wouldn't His Majesty worry about the imperial power falling apart if he destroyed the city wall by himself?

After all, judging from the current situation, except for His Majesty and the prince, the other princes seem to have become "ordinary people" with titles. Although they are still Li Shimin's children, as "ordinary people", they will Are you trying your best to maintain the majesty of the imperial power?

Moreover, in the past, although the prince was a prince and the prince was a prince, and the identities of the two were very different, everyone knew that other princes also had the opportunity to sit on the throne, after all, they were all of the emperor's blood.

But now, except for the crown prince, the other princes are not even princes or feudal princes. Only the prince is a prince. Will the gap between him and other princes be even greater?

So what if something happens to the crown prince?

Or to put it another way, could it be because of the current situation that other princes can attack the crown prince?

After all, it seems that as long as the prince dies, other people will have the opportunity to become princes and princes from ordinary dignitaries.

But before these hidden careerists could do something, the noble committee was established. This committee, which is chaired by the emperor himself and clearly stipulated that the chairman can only be taken over by the emperor in the future, established a lot of rules as soon as it came up.

First of all, the participating members, as long as they are the children of the royal family, they will be a member of it. At the same time, the nobles above the marquis, the head of the family will also automatically become a member of it.

Then there was Li Shimin's coquettish operation. In the future, the establishment of the heir needs to be approved by the noble committee. This heir does not only refer to the royal family, even the future inheritance of all the nobles in the Tang Dynasty needs to be approved by the noble committee.

Of course, under normal circumstances, when the head of the family is still alive, he will establish his own successor in the clan, and generally, if there are no accidents, it will definitely be the eldest son and grandson of the family who will take over.

But this person is not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. If something goes wrong, how to solve it?

Normally, it would be a big mess. After all, a big family contains too many things, not only the noble title, but also wealth, connections, talents and so on.

Therefore, for Li Shimin's approach, everyone is very supportive, because the more honorable he is, the more he cares about face. Naturally, such a bad thing about his family can't be brought to the court.

In the past, there was no way, but now that there is a noble committee, it is still reliable here, after all, here are all "our own people", so it is natural to protect the interests of our own people.

As long as the successor is established here while alive, then you will not be afraid of all kinds of troubles afterwards. After all, the president here is not a powerless existence, he is the dignified Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, okay?

It can be said that the noble council not only patched Li Shimin's change of imperial power, but also gave all the nobles a shot in the arm, that is, we will not want to overthrow this system, but try our best to maintain the healthy development of the system.

Everyone has received this hidden meaning and is satisfied. After all, the emperor has taken the initiative to protect your interests. What else do you want to do, right?

For a while, everyone was happy again!

For this situation, Li Shimin is naturally happy to see the results. In fact, what he thinks is very simple, that is, in his tenure, try to consolidate the foundation of the entire Tang Dynasty as much as possible.

Perhaps he is a little adventurous and even challenges the world, but he is a bold person, and he is confident that he can suppress everything and develop things in the direction he expects.

Facts have proved that he has indeed done it, and the entire Tang Dynasty's honorary system is slowly developing in the direction he expected.

And in a few years, after these people gradually become familiar with the existing rules, he will make new adjustments on this basis, and by that time, perhaps only the royal family in the entire Tang Dynasty can be called the real one. of the nobility.

And the royal family will completely stand at the intersection of nobles and commoners!

This series of operations undoubtedly took Li Shimin a lot of time and effort to think, ponder and calculate, but judging from the results, he was undoubtedly successful.

Zhang Nuo probably knew about this plan, and at the same time expressed his support cautiously. After all, he clearly knew that, in fact, classes existed at any time.

Trying to completely eliminate a class is actually forcing this class to hide from the open. Rather than working hard at that time, it is better to put everything on the bright side and within the framework, and use the system and interests to restrain and bind it.

This is undoubtedly many times better than destroying carelessly and disorderly.

Zhang Nuo was the first object Li Shimin fought for, and the only one he basically confessed to. After all, Zhang Nuo's identity was too special.

In the eyes of the royal family, he is the most top-notch noble, the existence of a king with a different surname!

In Xungui's eyes, he is the emperor's righteous brother, the prince's teacher, and the most staunch supporter of the royal family!

But these cannot be denied, the existence of Zhang Nuo is so dazzling!

Chapter 911 The Inheritance in Zhang Nuo's Eyes

Zhang Nuo has been staying in the Indochina Peninsula honestly, and only learned about what happened in Chang'an City through telegrams.

The source of his information is actually very simple, it is nothing more than the public information on the market, but Li Shimin can't stop sending him messages, some methods and ideas, Li Shimin is open and honest in his ear, repeatedly. He repeatedly asked Zhang Nuo for his opinion.

This is equivalent to the general of the enemy's army becoming our spy. It would be strange if he didn't know the opponent's every move.

But for Zhang Nuo, these things are not that important.

What he valued the most was Li Shimin as a whole. After all, he had been with Lao Li for so long, and Li Shimin had nothing to say to him.

If it is said that at the beginning, he wanted to take advantage of the other party because he was the emperor, and at the same time, he also thought that this person was good, and he could get along well, so he tried to get along with him.

After several years of entanglement with the family of Li Shimin, Empress Changsun, and Li Chengqian, Zhang Nuo had to admit that he really regarded these people as his relatives and friends.

Whether the other party is sincerely treating you or not, you can actually feel it very clearly if you think about it carefully.

Now that they have become close friends, relatives and friends, according to Zhang Nuo's own principles of handling things, it is difficult to do anything other than support what the other party wants to do.
