When the powerful praying bell struck a full one hundred and eight times.
Wude! This era that carried the Tang Dynasty from scratch and witnessed its growth and protection has officially lifted the curtain.
And Zhenguan!
This new year, which will surely shine for eternity, officially embarks on its journey at this moment.
Emperor's imperial edict:
Changsun Wuji was the Duke of Qi and the general of Zuo Wuhou
Yuchi Jingde was the Duke of Wu and the general of Youwuhou.
Duan Zhixian is Fan Guogong and General Zuo Xiaowei.
Changsun Shunde is the general of You Xiaowei.
Qin Qiong is the general of Zuowuwei
Cheng Zhijie was the general of Youwuwei.
Chai Shao is the right-guard general
Hou Jun gathered as Duke of Lu and General of Zuowei
Wang Junkuo was the general leading the left army and the governor of Youzhou.
Li Jing is the Duke of Wei and General Hu Ben Wei.
Xiao Han is the new fire guard and general.
At the Yuan Day Ceremony, in the sharp and sharp voice of the great eunuch, the power of the old and new courts was alternated.
Of course, among the ministers of your highness, there are some who are smiling and overjoyed, and there are also those who are sad and depressed, crying bitterly.
"The Supreme Emperor! The Supreme Emperor! My Wu family used all our strength to help you raise an army to conquer the world! Now that we have just lived a peaceful life, are you going to kick us away! This is unfair to us! It's unfair!"
After the eunuch finished reciting the official titles of the imperial court, an old man who had not heard his name stumbled to the front of the palace and shouted to the much older Li Yuan next to Li Shimin!
"Yes! Your Majesty, Your Majesty! You can't just kill the donkey! We have paid so much, can't we even get a rich life now?"
Following the old man, several people in the hall came out with tears in their eyes, kowtowing desperately to Li Shimin and Li Yuan in the hall.
"you……"
Looking at these familiar people, Li Yuan, who has been idle for half a year, has red eyes!
These people were all his most solid team members back then! Although they were once emperors and ministers, Li Shimin's purge this time was really too thorough!
"Shimin! They did nothing wrong!" Looking at his son with regret, Li Yuan pointed at these people and said with a trembling voice.
However, facing his father's anger, Li Shimin looked calm at this time.
He sat quietly on the dragon chair, looked down at the old man surnamed Wu who was sitting on the ground, then looked at the civil and military officials of the dynasty, and said in a cold voice:
"Wu Chuanzhi, I remember your original contribution! But I also remember what you have done in these years! The Supreme Emperor is kind-hearted and cannot bear to punish you, but I am different! Gong is merit, fault is fault! I never confuse!
"
"My, what did I do wrong! So much so that I didn't even give you a meal?!" Wu Chuanzhi raised his head and stared at Li Shimin, and said with a trembling tone.
Li Shimin didn't say much, just sighed, and then waved his hand: "Xue Shou, tell him."
"Here!" Under the court, Xue Shou, who had been prepared for a long time, came out of the queue after hearing the sound, glanced at the people kneeling on the ground, took out a book from his arms, and read aloud:
"Remember, in the second year of Wude, Wu Chuanzhi expropriated more than 300 acres of rural land in the name of the Supreme Emperor's relatives, causing many people to become homeless and dispersed!
In the third year of Wude's reign, one of his sons acted tyrannically, causing his servants to beat the people, and secretly warning the local government, so that he had no way to appeal, and finally committed suicide by drowning himself in the river.
Five years of martial arts..."
Soon, one thing after another, one thing after another came out of Xue Sheo's mouth.
And with each additional item, Wu Chuanzhi's face became paler! Later, only a pale white remained on his old face!
"That's enough, stop reading!"
With a hysterical roar, Wu Chuanzhi looked at the fold in Xue Shao's hand with red eyes, as if he was seeing a life-or-death enemy!
At this moment, how could he not know that Li Shimin had made complete preparations for today? It was ridiculous that he jumped out first, and ended up looking like a baby.
"Haha, haha! I...I thank you for your grace."
There was a cramp in his chest, and Wu Chuanzhi spurted out a mouthful of blood! But he didn't even wipe it off, and just staggered towards the door in front of everyone.
"Haha... once the emperor, once the ministers..."
Outside the door, Wu Chuanzhi's miserable laughter came intermittently along the north wind. Several people who had just followed him out of the queue were also panicking!
Who knows how many things Xue Shou recorded in that book?
In these years, like Wu Chuanzhi, they all became rich and powerful! They did nothing less than Wu Chuanzhi did!
However, luckily: Li Shimin seemed to have forgotten them, and continued in the Yuanri Hall.
In the midst of the noise, those who had just stepped out of the queue all stepped back in disbelief, no longer daring to express their kindness.
"Hey, the emperor and his courtiers all kill people every time! This Wu Chuanzhi is still smart. He knows that if he doesn't retreat, his whole family will be involved."
Seeing this scene happening, in the corner of the hall, Qiu Fu, who had not been seen for many days, swayed and muttered with emotion.
"Ahem, sir, are you saying that a little too much? What is your first dynasty?"
Following Qiu Fu's words, a voice that didn't know whether to laugh or cry sounded, but it was Xiao Han who was sitting next to him who couldn't help but speak out when he heard this.
In the past few years, the elders of the three dynasties and Xiao Han have become very familiar with each other. He was not surprised when he heard this. Instead, he proudly extended an old palm: "It's the fifth dynasty, haha..."
"Elders of the Five Dynasties..."
Xiao Han rolled his eyes and said angrily: "According to what you just said, this is the fourth time you have escaped death, right?"
"It's different, it's different!" The patriarch of the Three Dynasties shook his head and lectured: "Being an official is just like being a human being. The most important thing is to know how to advance and retreat! If some things are yours, you can take them. If they are not yours, you can take them.
If it moves, there will be disaster!"
"Oh? How much did you take?" Xiao Han said with a sly smile.
"Snapped……"
"Ouch..."
After receiving a solid blow, Xiao Han immediately screamed, holding his head and saying in pain: "I didn't say you were corrupt, why did you hit me just because you said you were?"
The elder of the three dynasties rubbed his sore palms and hummed in the horrified gazes of the green-robed officials: "If you continue to expose me, how can I inquire about anything?"
"That's not what you said..." Xiao Han asked aggrievedly.
The old man's face turned red, and then he acted aggressively: "You still say that?!"
"Uh, don't you dare!" Xiao Han waved his hand quickly.
"Huh huh..." The old man's beard is almost sticking up to the sky. He can openly beat a marquis whose official position is much higher than his own. Who else would have such courage than me?
"Huh? It was just announced that you are the new Phobos General? What is the new Phobos?"
