He really didn't expect that Li Shimin would throw this problem to him.
After all, killing these Shu officials is equivalent to saying to everyone that those who dare to start a rebellion will die, and those who vassal the rebels will also die.
But I've said it before.
Shudi is different from other places.
Because of its special geographical location, Shu can become a small country as long as it declares independence.
Not to mention that Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, relied on Shu to conquer the world step by step and established the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years.
Just talking about the Zhaolie Emperor Liu Bei, who could fight against the powerful Cao Wei by relying on Shu, we can fully see how important Shu is to the Central Plains.
If Li Ke cannot be slapped to death, there will definitely be trouble in the future.
Not to mention overthrowing the Tang Dynasty, at the very least it could prevent peace in Jiangnan Road and Shannan Road.
But now, because of the actions of the merchant family and Li Ke's confusing operations, these officials have chosen to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side, which is naturally a good thing for the court.
After all, even if you think with your toes, you know that there must be many people in Shu who are watching the situation.
If these guys who surrendered first could be treated kindly, those losers would naturally come back one after another.
But if they were treated harshly by him, those outsiders would naturally share the same hatred with Li Ke and fight against him to the end.
Therefore, Li Chengqian also gave up all ideas at the moment.
He said directly: "In the final analysis, they are not the ones who rebelled. No matter what, we must give them a chance."
"Not to mention the placement of good students, at least we should give them equal treatment."
Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin and said, "Huainan Road and Henan Road have replaced many officials. Why don't we let them take over?"
Hearing these words, Li Shimin was deeply surprised.
Of course he could guess that Li Chengqian would never let him kill him in the end. Kill those people.
But he really didn't expect that Li Chengqian would want to let those people serve in Huainan Road and Henan Road.
After all, Huainan Road and Henan Road are both Central Plains areas in the true sense.
The wealth of this place and the number of famous families cannot be described in words.
For example, in the Tang court alone, two-thirds of the people were from Henan Province.
And if someone in the family is an official in the imperial court, how can the family not receive some spring breeze from the imperial court?
How could officials in those two places not be taken care of by these people?
After all, only if they take care of these local officials, will the local officials take care of their relatives...
And Li Shimin naturally knew all this.
However, he always turned a blind eye.
After all, if you don’t do it for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth...
Those people all followed Li Shimin to conquer the world.
And how could he care about these people who had sold their lives to him?
Even if they don't operate, Li Shimin himself will give them the treatment they deserve.
Therefore, no matter how you say it, considering the current conditions for being an official in the Tang Dynasty, it is naturally best to be an official in Henan Road and Huainan Road.
It is also because of such prerequisites that the conditions for becoming an official in these two places have become extremely harsh.
At the very least, he must be someone Li Shimin values, and secondly, his background must be similar.
If this were not the case, there would be no way to suppress those local aristocratic families who could eat living people alive.
Of course, none of this matters.
The important thing is that after serving in Henan Province and Huainan Province, once he is transferred back to the central court, the official path will be smooth.
Originally, Li Shimin planned to take this opportunity to promote some of the things he valued more.
Where are the young people dispatched to train as officials?
But now, Li Chengqian allowed himself to give up these positions to those guilty officials from Shu.
This time, Li Shimin really felt a little uncomfortable.
He didn't mean that he couldn't understand Li Chengqian's behavior.
Just dispatching those people to these two places is really a bit too flattering, right?
After all, those guys still carry the word "criminal minister" on them.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin simply looked at Li Chengqian and said, "Does it have to be Henan Road and Huainan Road?"
"I didn't say it had to be like this."
"But at least one-third of the people inside must be dispatched."
Li Chengqian said it seriously.
"Father knows the importance of Henan Road and Huainan Road, and they naturally know it too."
"And besides them, the people in Shu naturally know."
"Now, these people who have escaped from Shu are treated with courtesy by the emperor. Those who have not escaped will naturally be jealous when they see it."
"Some people may even feel that this is the best opportunity to improve their level."
Li Chengqian continued: "In this way, not only will it cause chaos in Shu, but it will also bring most officials in Shu back to the court's camp."
"At the very least, we can let outsiders see that our court is not so petty."
"If someone has never made a big mistake, we can forget about it."
What he said makes sense.
But Li Shimin still felt a little unhappy.
Of course, with Li Chengqian's understanding of his father, he could know what he was thinking just by looking at his expression.
At this time, Li Chengqian smiled slightly and said: "Father, you don't have to feel unhappy. After all, you let them go, but as for whether to give them a chance to be promoted, isn't it your decision?"
"Wait until the rebellion in Shu Now that the chaos is over, isn't the fate of these people still in your own hands?"
"When the time comes, no matter how you want to arrange them, it's all a matter of your words."
"So, you don't have to think so much."
Li Chengqian smiled and said: "It's better to give them some sweetness and let them know the kindness of my father. Then my father will give them a good test of their abilities."
"If you can do it, your father should give you a commendation, and those who deserve a promotion should be promoted."
"If that doesn't work, just wait until they return to Beijing to report their work, and then send them to another place."
After hearing these words, Li Shimin finally felt a little happier.
He thought for a moment and then asked: "So, do you have a good way to deal with Shu this time?"
"I don't have any good ideas."
Li Chengqian smiled mysteriously and said, "But I have a lot of bad ideas."
Seeing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Have you been pleasant to this boy for too long?
So that this kid doesn't take him seriously anymore?
You dare to betray yourself. Doesn't this mean you deserve a beating, or what?
Li Shimin touched his back almost subconsciously.
When Li Chengqian saw this, he immediately remembered what happened to him when he was a child.
He also subconsciously covered his butt and took a step back.
Immediately, he smiled dryly at Li Shimin and said: "Father, my son is so old, so I can save some face for him..."
Hearing this, Li Shimin rolled his eyes and said: "I want to save face for you, but you have repeatedly provoked my bottom line. Is it strange for me?"
have to.
Obviously, I, the emperor, have made my old habit again.
Li Chengqian could only sigh and said: "Actually, I have already had a way to deal with them, but the time has not come yet and I haven't had time to implement it..."
