When Li Shimin woke up, he was shocked by what he saw. If he could regret it, he would rather abolish the rules in the palace and have people report news inside at night.
It's better now. Because the palace door is closed, no news from outside can come in. Li Shimin was the last one to know what happened last night. Li Shimin should be happy because Li Xiang caught a big spy.
, but now this big spy may destabilize Li Shimin's empire, so Li Shimin did not dare to make any big moves.
When the emperor of a country discovers such traitorous behavior, he should have executed his whole family on the street long ago. However, the Tang Dynasty was still established early, and the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes were very powerful in various places. After the efforts of Li Xiang and Li Shimin, the major
The family's strength has been reduced a lot, but it is still a powerful faction in the country. It has just gone through the Salt War, and now it should be a time to recuperate. If there is another big move, the entire court may be unstable at any time.
If the major families unite, will they experience another powerful civil war?
"What is this little bastard doing at the door of Changsun's house at night?"
Li Shimin said angrily, not all the courtiers outside have come yet, but most of the important ministers have come. They have also heard about what happened last night. Today is extremely important for the Tang Dynasty. If it can't be handled a little bit,
If it goes well, the peace of these decades may be gone, and the entire Tang Dynasty will fall into war again.
"Going back to the emperor, yesterday His Highness Taisun and several young masters were drinking in the world of heaven and earth. Changsun Chong drank a little too much, so His Highness Taisun sent him back. As a result, he saw the Tibetan warriors at the gate of Changsun's mansion. The two parties did not exchange a few words.
The fight started..."
The men in black knelt down and reported. They were following Li Xiang at the time, but they didn't think anything was wrong at the time. It was just a few Tibetan warriors who offended His Highness Taisun in Chang'an City, even if they were locked up.
If so, that would make sense, after all, the Tang Dynasty is now the center of the world.
But things soon developed beyond their expectations. It's fine to lock up these people, but you can't search the Tibetan guild hall.
Searching the Tubo Guild Hall is considered a taboo. A brief explanation of the matter the next day can be tolerated, but you can just stop there. Why was the Feng family sealed again? The whole family was pressed into the sky prison.
The Feng family is already a second- or third-rate family. It usually does not have much influence in the court, and it is even less likely that it will commit such a big crime. Others are wondering outside, but the Boling Cui family must have figured it out.
, apart from their dealings with the Tubo people, what other reason is there to arrest everyone in the Feng family?
"Okay, don't talk nonsense. What's going on with the Bolingcui family? Send someone to keep an eye on them."
Things still happened. Although Li Shimin wanted to hold Li Xiang accountable, Li Shimin valued the safety of his empire more. The Boling Cui family bore the brunt of this incident. If they wanted to rebel, Li Shimin had to know in advance.
.
"Some of the disciples have returned to their original families. We can only understand the situation in Chang'an City. We can understand the situation of all the major families in Chang'an City, but their main power is still in the local area."
The man in black is right. Li Shimin made Chang'an his capital. Although it has become the economic and political center of the country, for the major families, they may not take it seriously. They are still willing to stay in their hometown and stay in Chang'an.
Just have a few people in charge in Chang'an City.
"Pay close attention and at the same time send an order to the Ministry of War to mobilize troops and horses and let Li Jing do it himself."
On some key matters, Li Shimin still trusted Li Jing. General Li Jing had his own way of dealing with the outside world, and he also had his own way of doing things internally.
After arranging these things, Li Shimin felt a little calmer, but he still had to face this mess. The sky outside was slowly getting brighter. Li Shimin could only go to the morning court first, and at the same time he also wanted to see Lu Dongzan.
How should I put it? You keep saying that you want to establish a good relationship with Datang, but now something like this has happened. When faced with this evidence, can you still say that you are black and white?
"The Emperor has arrived."
With Wang De's announcement, all the officials present knelt down. Li Xiang was now much further forward and was already standing in front of the princes. He was second only to his father and could be regarded as the most powerful among the royal family's children.
The second person, including Li Shimin, is also the third person.
"Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor!"
Li Xiang followed the crowd and saluted, but when Li Xiang raised his head, he happened to see Li Shimin staring at him, with fire almost coming out of his eyes. Li Xiang also made an apologetic look.
In fact, Li Xiang himself didn't want to make the matter so big. He just wanted to get rid of the few guards around Lu Dongzan and make these people suffer. Who knew that he didn't arrest him at the time, but he followed the clues and found out such a big melon?
, even Li Shimin was a little confused.
Seeing Li Xiang's aggrieved look, Li Shimin couldn't get angry. After all, he was his own grandson. Although he hated him before, Li Shimin could still tell the difference clearly when facing outsiders, not to mention that he was caught by a spy.
To be honest, although I haven't done any bad things now, if I do bad things in the future, the losses to Datang will be considerable.
"Report to the Emperor that the Prime Minister of Tubo Kingdom, Lu Dongzan, is outside the palace asking for an audience."
Lu Dongzan did not have the right to meet the emperor directly, and had to ask officials from the Ministry of Rites to report on his behalf.
Li Shimin nodded, and Wang Dexuanlu Dongzan entered the hall.
Li Xiang also tilted his head to see how this guy would explain. Even though you are usually eloquent, but now that the real evidence is here, can you say that the real evidence I found is all fake?
When he heard people talking, Li Xiang turned around. Seeing the scene in front of him, Li Xiang had to raise his thumb. Lu Dongzan actually came up with several people tied up. This time the Tubo envoy
Except for himself, several other important figures in the group were tied up. Was this a plan to exterminate relatives in a righteous cause?
When Li Xiang's eyes met Lu Dongzan's, Li Xiang clearly saw a trace of pride in his eyes.
Lu Dongzan was ready to cut off his left and right hands and then make up for the mistakes he made, but he wanted to watch the excitement and see how the Tang Dynasty handled this matter.
