Tai Chi Hall.

The Emperor of Tang Dynasty ascended the morning court.

"Long live your Majesty."

The ministers in the court bowed and bowed, and they were extremely frightened.

The ministers naturally knew that last night, the East Factory thoroughly investigated Chang'an City and countless officials were arrested.

So much so that in the morning court, the place where the ministers stood became much empty.

All civil and military officials felt cold in their hearts.

At this moment, they realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Flat."

Li Si sat upright on the dragon throne, scanning the ministers, with no emotional fluctuations in his expression.

The ministers in the court stood up.

However, the emperor did not speak, and they did not dare to say a word. They could only be nervous and didn't know what to do.

The Minister of Revenue stood in the court with his body tense.

Other ministers may not know why the emperor ordered so many people to be arrested.

But the Minister of Revenue knew.

Yesterday, the Minister of Revenue entered the palace and reported to the emperor that someone was selling private salt in Chang'an City.

Immediately afterwards, the East Factory Supervisor was dispatched and, under the leadership of Cao Zhengchun, searched Chang'an City.

If there is no relationship between these two, the Minister of Revenue will be the first to believe it.

In addition, the Minister of Revenue secretly paid attention to some people arrested by the East Factory.

It was found that they were more or less related to the sale of private salt

After the Minister of Revenue came to this conclusion, he only felt that the sky was like a bed.

Because the matter of surveillance of merchants was the task assigned by His Majesty to the Minister of Revenue.

Nowadays, businessmen are bold and interfering in private salt, and the Minister of Revenue cannot escape the blame.

Although, when the Minister of Revenue met His Majesty yesterday, His Majesty didn't say much.

But this matter was ultimately the issue of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

If the emperor doesn’t say it, it doesn’t mean that the Minister of Revenue is correct.

The Minister of Revenue's sweat couldn't stop overflowing from his forehead.

After a moment.

Li Sigao sat on the dragon throne and finally spoke: "Maybe many people still don't know what happened in Chang'an City yesterday?"

The emperor's words echoed in the Tai Chi Hall.

When all the ministers heard this, their hearts trembled.

The emperor said the truth about this sentence, although his expression was calm.

But the ministers felt the suppressed anger in the emperor's words.

Li Si looked at the civil and military officials: "Yesterday, I found that there were shops selling private salt in Chang'an City?"

Li Si's words changed the faces of the ministers in the court.

All dynasties have been regulated by salt, and no one except the court is allowed to interfere in salt.

This is Tang Lu!

It is also the bottom line of the Tang Empire!

Li Si slowly stood up from the dragon throne: "I am very disappointed after I asked Cao Zhengchun to investigate this matter thoroughly."

"In Chang'an City, merchants don't have the courage to interfere in salt."

"But now, someone has stood up and given the businessmen confidence."

Li Si was walking on the dragon platform, not caring about what he said, but the ministers in the court looked miserable.

"His Majesty calms down."

All civil and military officials knelt down together and shouted in fear.

"Stop the anger?"

"Regain your anger?"

"Apart from calming down your anger, won't you say anything else?"

Li Si suddenly stopped, his eyes were sharp, and he looked at the ministers in the court: "I support you, so you can only say quell the anger?"

Li Si's words were like a sharp knife, stabbing hard in the hearts of all the ministers.

Even the eunuch standing outside the Tai Chi Hall was so scared that he fell to his knees.

The ministers in the court were even weak and filled with deep fear.

Long Yan was furious, the power of heaven was unpredictable, who in the world was not afraid?

Li Si looked at the minister who was lying on the ground, and a coldness appeared on his face.

In all dynasties, there have been cases of selling private salt.

After all, selling private salt represents huge interests.

But in the past, they were all sold secretly, fearing that they would be discovered by the government.

But what did Li Si see yesterday?

The man who sells private salt actually bought a store alone!

People who bought private salt lined up outside the store!

Chang'an City is the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty, at the foot of the emperor.

But this happened!

Where is the majesty of the Tang Dynasty?

Where is the emperor's majesty?

If Li Si does not punish this matter seriously!

He, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, might as well give up as soon as possible!

Li Si walked to the dragon throne and sat down slowly: "I know that since you can stand in the court, it proves that you did not interfere in the sale of private salt."

Li Si's words made the court officials seem to have caught the last straw: "Your Majesty's clarification"

Just now, the ministers all felt that His Majesty was about to take action against them.

Although, they have never sold private salt.

But who can guess His Majesty’s thoughts thoroughly?

If His Majesty wants to delve into it, they have no choice but to wait for death!

Just when all the civil and military officials breathed a sigh of relief.

The emperor's words resounded in their ears again.

"Although you have nothing to do with this matter, you should understand, and even understand that in the Tang Dynasty, whoever dares to touch something will die!"

"Not only will he die, but all his family and those who are old and old, will die!"

When the ministers in the court heard this, their faces turned pale as paper, and they lowered their heads and said, "I obey the order."

In the eyes of the emperor, there is only the country.

Anyone who dares to shake the country is to be enemies of the emperor and the entire empire.

Li Si would never allow it, and the sale of private salt happened again in the Tang Dynasty.

Salt can only be controlled by the court.

"Transfer my will, and anyone dares to sell private salt and implicate the three tribes."

Li Si stood up from the dragon throne again: "Retreat!"

Li Si walked out of Tai Chi Hall directly.

Only after the emperor left did the ministers dare to get up from the ground.

Several officials were so scared that they could not even get up, so they could only help their colleagues.

Today's Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will never hesitate when he kills people.

If they were implicated by His Majesty's anger, the outcome could be imagined

After Li Si left, the Minister of Revenue wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
