Datang: Just been appointed as the crown prince, the counterattack system is here

Chapter 250 Father, the emperor, the people who serve, are never given by anyone! [Seeking monthly t

Chapter 250 Father, the person who makes the decisions, is never given the title by anyone! [Seeking monthly votes]

Most afraid of the air suddenly quiet.

Originally, the twenty-nine countries sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty to pay their respects.

After all, the former Turkic boss was beaten badly by others and became a dancer for entertainment at other people's banquets.

It would be a lie to say that I am not afraid.

But generally speaking, after visiting the dock, you should mark the ground and then discuss a reshuffle.

It was said to be a discussion, but in fact it was about whoever had the richer gifts, and the new big brother would protect him first.

But who would have thought that the new boss didn't play by the rules at all. Before even setting up the battlefield, he started killing his own people.

Who could have imagined this?

If they are so cruel to their own people, who can imagine what they will do to outsiders?
It seems that this so-called Double Ninth Festival Banquet is actually a Hongmen Banquet!
Almost all foreign envoys thought of this situation when they heard Li Chengqian asking them.

But the problem is that they have no idea what Li Chengqian is going to do to them.

Therefore, they are now extremely panicked and feel like they are sitting on pins and needles.

"Hehehe"

The King of Gaochang broke the silence with a wry smile, then looked up at the sky as if nothing had happened and sighed, "The wind tonight is so noisy!"

Upon hearing this, the foreign envoys were stunned at first, but then they suddenly realized what was going on and nodded in agreement, saying, "Yes, yes, the night wind in Chang'an is truly extraordinary!"

"Not bad, not bad, but a little cold, hehe."

"Yeah, it's a bit cold."

"Is it?"

Li Chengqian heard them laughing and talking about other things, so he smiled instead of getting angry: "Since the envoys feel cold, then go back. Remember to put on more clothes when you go back, so as not to catch a cold!"

"Ah? This"

The foreign envoys seemed to doubt whether they had heard it wrong, and thought to themselves, how could this Tang Dynasty prince, who had just started a massacre, actually let them go?

really?
Wouldn't he wait and see who of us dares to leave first, and then start killing us all in the name of disrespecting the superior country?

If so, that's a bit insidious.

But then again, if the Tang Dynasty prince was not insidious, he would not be able to deal with those aristocratic families.

Look at the methods used just now to deal with the aristocratic families. Each one is more cruel and vicious than the last!
The key point is that the Tang Dynasty emperor just stood there and watched him kill his own ministers without stopping him.

Could it be that the one who really had the final say in the Tang Dynasty was actually the crown prince?

Thinking of this, the foreign envoys couldn't help but break out in cold sweats, and then stayed where they were silently.

No one was willing to take the first step.

However, the fact that the envoys from the twenty-nine countries did not dare to leave did not mean that the people from the four Tuyuhun countries who came uninvited did not dare to leave.

In particular, Fu Zhen of Tuyuhun, after seeing Li Chengqian openly killing a group of officials from aristocratic families, became deeply wary of the Tang Dynasty prince. He had to report this situation to Tuyuhun Khan Fu Yun, especially the weapons in the hands of the red-armored guards, which were simply unheard of and unprecedented.

If the Tang Dynasty used this weapon to deal with the Tuyuhun army, it would likely be defeated and left with nothing, which would be a horrific sight.

Thinking about the ultimate purpose of his visit to the Tang Dynasty, Fu Zhen felt that he needed to go back and remind Tuyuhun Khan to change his strategy and make new plans.

As for worrying about whether Li Chengqian would kill these envoys, he felt that it was impossible, because no matter how powerful the Tang Dynasty was, it was impossible to face the twenty-nine countries and the four Tuyuhun countries alone.

Even if the Tang Dynasty possessed the mysterious weapons in the hands of the Red Armor Guards, it would not have such strength.

Therefore, after figuring out the key, he was the first to take the first step and said meaningfully to Li Chengqian: "The Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty is very cunning. I, Tuyuhun, have witnessed it today. We will meet again in the future!"

After saying this, he prepared to take Murong Shun away from the banquet.

However, just as he turned to look at Murong Shun, he suddenly heard a burst of gunfire.

"boom--!"

The gunshots were like thunder, familiar yet strange.

He was slightly stunned, as if he didn't react, but when he looked at Murong Shun, a red face of fear appeared in his eyes.

He dared to guarantee that this was the first time he had seen Murong Shun with this expression. Just when he was about to ask Murong Shun why he looked like this, he suddenly felt something flowing down his forehead. He subconsciously raised his hand to touch it, but felt something sticky and a little hot, but he couldn't tell what it was.

Until everything in front of my eyes went dark, and a feeling as if all my strength had been drained quickly spread throughout my body.

Without warning!
Plop!
This old Tuyuhun prince, the great general, fell directly to the ground!
I don't even know how I died.
“Uncle Wang——!”

Seeing Fu Zhen fall to the ground, Murong Shun finally came to his senses and pounced on him.

The other people around seemed to have just realized that Fu Zhen had been killed, and they all looked towards the place where the gunshots were heard.

Li Yuan, expressionless, held up a short, peculiar, but beautifully decorated golden musket and said calmly and indifferently, "My grandson said that the envoys can go back, but he didn't say that the guilty ministers and their accomplices can leave!"

Wow!
The whole place was in an uproar!

It seemed that no one had expected that the old emperor would take action at this time, and the way he attacked was exactly the same as those red-armored guards just now.

Some people even think that the old emperor's marksmanship is better than those of the red-armored guards.

Because the Red Armored Guards took aim in front of them, the old emperor didn't even aim and just fired directly.

And it was a one-shot kill, without even giving the opponent time to react.

What kind of ability is this?
Not only the civil and military officials present, foreign envoys, but even Li Shimin who was beside Li Yuan, could not help but twitch their eyelids when they looked at Li Yuan.

"Father, you."

"Erlang, it's a good thing the muskets came out late, otherwise that whistling arrow wouldn't have been able to penetrate the palace, right?"

Before Li Shimin could finish his words of doubt and surprise, Li Yuan interrupted him with a smile, then turned his head to look at Yuchi Gong in the crowd and asked with a smile: "Is that right, Jingde?"

"Shh!"

In just a moment, Yuchi Gong broke out in a cold sweat.

He hesitated for a long time and couldn't utter a word. Finally, the intense fear made him kneel down and said, "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong."

"Ah!"

Li Yuan snorted, then glanced at Li Shimin. As he put away his musket, he said, "The past is the past. I have already settled my account that night, so I will not settle it with you again."

As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Li Chengqian and said awkwardly, "Grandson, you won't blame Grandpa Huang, right?"

"Grandpa Emperor has done a great job. How can I blame you?"

Li Chengqian smiled and shook his head. He glanced at Murong Shun again and spread his hands, saying, "I wanted to kill him too, but I didn't expect the Emperor to make the first move!"

"Alas, I am old and easily impulsive. This barbarian just spoke rudely many times and almost hurt you. I, the Royal Grandfather, really can't stand his arrogance!"

"Haha, if you can't bear it any longer, then there's no need to bear it anymore. Grandpa Emperor has already endured enough."

"Too."

Li Yuan thought it made sense, so he stopped worrying about a dead person and asked Li Chengqian curiously, "Grandson, what are you going to do next?"

"This"

Li Chengqian hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at the envoys from the twenty-nine nations, then at Zhangsun Wuji and the other civil and military officials. After a moment's hesitation, he said thoughtfully, "Emissaries from the Western Regions and the Gur Khanate, I allow you to return, but you cannot leave without permission. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences."

"In addition, I have three requests. I hope you will consider them carefully."

"First, seriously consider the two conditions I proposed."

"Second, I won't stop you from spreading rumors about what happened today, but if you dare to spread rumors, it will be tantamount to declaring war on the Tang Dynasty. No matter who spreads the rumors, I will regard it as a declaration of war on the Tang Dynasty. I will lead the Tang Dynasty's cavalry to crush you. Please don't be so cautious. I hope you will supervise each other and be careful."

"Third, in addition to producing thousands of kilograms of sweet potatoes per mu, I also have a plan that can make your country tenfold, even dozens of times richer. I need your participation. This is only after you agree to the other two conditions. If you don't agree, it will be another matter."

"This"

When the foreign envoys heard these three requests, they looked at each other in confusion.

Especially when he heard that Li Chengqian had a plan that could make their country ten or even dozens of times richer, he was obviously moved.

However, they often dealt with the Central Plains Dynasty and knew that there was an old saying in the Central Plains Dynasty that there is no free lunch in the world.

The Tang Dynasty had just defeated the Turks. Not to mention becoming wealthy, even having enough food and clothing was still a problem. How could it possibly have the ability to make their country ten or even dozens of times richer?
So, after a moment of excitement, they quickly calmed down and said nothing.

Because they still didn't understand what Li Chengqian was trying to do, and they didn't dare to offend Li Chengqian.

After all, the Tang Dynasty had mastered a "weapon that could kill people without anyone noticing", so they had no choice but to be cautious, for fear of repeating Fu Zhen's mistakes.

Seeing that the foreign envoys didn't respond to his request, Li Chengqian's face darkened instantly. He said in a low voice, "What are you still standing here for? If you have something to say, say it. If not, leave immediately!"

"Ah?! Oh, yes, yes."

When the foreign envoys heard the scolding, they seemed to react instantly and nodded and bowed repeatedly. Then they saluted Li Shimin, Li Chengqian, and Li Yuan carefully, and then left in fear and trepidation, not daring to waste any time, taking two steps at a time, as if they were afraid that Li Chengqian would go back on his word.

"Grandson, are you going to let them go so easily?"

Watching the foreign envoys leave the banquet hall in disgrace, Li Yuan looked at Li Chengqian with some confusion.

Li Chengqian smiled and asked, "Grandpa Emperor, do you know what people fear most?"

"what?"

"I'm afraid that people who are similar to me are living better than me!"

Li Yuan: “.”

Li Chengqian: "."

The two looked at each other, both silent.

After a while, Li Yuan said to Li Chengqian with a strange look on his face, "You mean they will definitely agree to your terms?"

"more or less."

Li Chengqian shrugged and said, "Even if not all of them agree, at least 70% to 80% agree!"

"What about the remaining 20% ​​to 30%?"

Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian glanced at Li Yuan, his expression suddenly straightened, and he said, "Those who follow me will prosper, and those who oppose me will perish!"

Li Yuan was speechless.

The people around sighed.

Especially Li Shimin, when he looked at Li Chengqian, he couldn't help but reveal a hint of envy.

Although he didn't know why he showed a hint of envy, he really admired this kind of youthful spirit of following one's heart.

Once upon a time, he also had such youthfulness, but unfortunately, he lost it at some point.

However, just as he was sighing, Murong Shun, who had just been crying about his uncle, suddenly got up from the ground and roared at Li Shimin and the other two: "You killed my uncle, are you planning to go to war with me, Tuyuhun?!"

Li Shimin and the other two were slightly stunned, then looked at Murong Shun as if he were a fool. Only to hear Li Chengqian raise his eyebrows in amusement and ask, "What do you think?"

"I think? I think you'd better think it through. My father has 100,000 warriors ready to fight, and there's also Goguryeo."

"Snapped!"

Before Murong Shun could finish his threat, the Goguryeo envoy Li Siyuan interrupted him with a slap and shouted, "Shut up!" He then bowed respectfully to Li Shimin and the others and said, "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Your Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, and the Supreme Emperor, Goguryeo has no intention of becoming an enemy of the Tang Dynasty. Although we participated in the polo field incident, we only agreed to cooperate with the competition and were unaware of their plan to assassinate the Crown Prince. Please be discerning!"

"Also, we came to the Tang Dynasty to purchase weapons and armor, and the Five Surnames and Seven Clans all have private weapon workshops, so we agreed to cooperate with them. If we had known they were plotting to assassinate the Crown Prince, we would never have cooperated with them!"

Having said this, he glanced at Gao Yanshou beside him and continued, "Although it's useless for us to say anything now, we still want to ask the Tang Dynasty to trust us and are willing to agree to all of the Tang Dynasty's conditions. We only hope that the Tang Dynasty will let us go for the sake of the diplomatic relations between our two countries!"

"Oh, you are just two envoys. Why should you agree to all the conditions of the Tang Dynasty?"

Li Chengqian couldn't help but sneer when he heard this.

Li Siyuan and Gao Yanshou exchanged a glance, hesitated slightly, and then made up their minds and said, "To be honest, Prince of the Tang Dynasty, the reason we came to the Tang Dynasty to purchase weapons and armor is because our country is about to fall into chaos. It is possible that the current King of Goguryeo will be replaced, and my uncle may become the new King of Goguryeo!"

"Oh?"

Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and then turned to look at Li Shimin.

Li Shimin's eyes suddenly lit up, but then disappeared in an instant. Then he said calmly, "Why should I believe what you say?"

"This"

Li Siyuan hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Murong Shun and continued, "To be honest with the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, we have secretly reached an agreement with Tuyuhun to borrow troops. As long as Tuyuhun can send troops to help us, we will assist them in sending troops to the Tang Dynasty and attack from both sides!"

"Li Siyuan! How dare you betray me, Tuyuhun!" Murong Shun became furious when he heard Li Siyuan's words.

But Li Siyuan ignored him and continued, "Waguo has always had plans against Silla. Now they are planning to put pressure on Baekje and send the Baekje prince to Japan as a hostage. Then they can form an alliance to attack Silla together, and we will help them contain Silla!"

"Li-san!!"

Upon hearing this, the Japanese envoy Inuue Ota's face changed drastically.

He didn't seem to expect that Li Siyuan would even tell this secret in order to save his life.

You know, this is a secret that Japan has been planning for more than ten years. As long as they annex Silla, Japan will become more and more powerful.

However, Silla submitted to the Tang Dynasty before them, so plotting against Silla behind the Tang Dynasty's back would never be allowed by the Tang Dynasty.

Sure enough, when Li Shimin heard their conspiracy, his face instantly darkened.

But Li Shimin did not get angry. Instead, he turned to look at Li Chengqian, only to hear Li Chengqian say calmly, "Are you done?"

"what?"

Li Siyuan was stunned for a moment, then looked at Li Chengqian with some confusion: "What does Your Highness the Crown Prince mean?"

"Literally, are you done?"

"Well, I don't know about the Western Turks, but they should be colluding with Tuyuhun."

"No! We have not colluded with Tuyuhun!" Upon hearing this, the Western Turkic envoy hurriedly spoke out to defend himself.

Li Chengqian didn't even glance at the Western Turkic envoy. He asked Li Siyuan again, "Are you done?"

"That's it!" "Okay! Now that you've finished, it's my turn to speak!"

Li Chengqian nodded, then glanced at Li Siyuan, Gao Yanshou, Inugami Mita, Murong Shun, and the escorted Princess Sakura, and said coldly, "I won't kill you for now, nor will I let you go. From today on, you are hostages of the Tang Dynasty. I will come back to find you when I have figured out how to deal with you!"

"Your Highness the Crown Prince."

"Of course! You can also write a letter asking your country to send new envoys to the Tang Dynasty for negotiations!"

Before Li Siyuan could finish his words, Li Chengqian interrupted him with a wave of his hand and immediately shouted an order to the Jinwu Guards below the stage: "Take them away and keep them under guard. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy!"

"As ordered!"

Dozens of Jinwu Guards rushed over immediately.

When Li Siyuan and the others heard the words "kill without mercy", their faces turned pale. They didn't even have the courage to resist and were taken away unwillingly.

When only the Li Tang royal family and the remaining civil and military officials were left at the banquet hall, Li Shimin finally spoke: "How are you going to clean up this mess? Don't say you're not prepared at all!"

"What are the preparations that father mentioned?" Li Chengqian asked Li Shimin in confusion.

Li Shimin narrowed his eyes, and then asked in a heavy tone: "You have killed so many court officials, is this the end?"

"Oh! From what I hear, Father, are you planning to settle accounts with me?"

Li Chengqian said with some amusement.

Li Shimin's face immediately turned serious, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Are you really not prepared?"

"no!"

"Rebel!"

"Okay, I lied to you!"

Seeing that Li Shimin was about to lose his temper, Li Chengqian quickly put away his joking thoughts and turned to Pei Xuan and said, "Pei Xuan, before dawn, execute all the tens of thousands of people outside!"

"promise!"

Pei Xuan agreed and was about to take the order and retreat.

But Li Shimin suddenly shouted: "Rebellious son! How dare you!!"

"Oh, Father! Why are you so loud?"

Li Chengqian took a few steps away from Li Shimin with some disdain and said, "Didn't we agree that I would host the Chongyang Banquet? It hasn't ended yet, has it?"

"You dare to ask me to preside over the Chongyang Banquet? You've killed so many ministers. How can I expect my court to function? You still want to kill those tens of thousands of people outside. Do you really intend to bring war to the entire Tang Dynasty?!"

"Why didn't you say anything when I said to kill them all? And now..."

"you shut up!"

Li Shimin roared again, and then the emperor's pressure was fully revealed, and he said angrily: "Now that the Chongyang Festival is over, I have the final say!"

"That won't work. It's not over until I say it's over!"

"Rebellious son!!"

"Your Majesty's anger! Your Majesty's anger!"

Seeing that the father and son were about to fight again, Zhangsun Wuji hurried forward to dissuade Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, please let me have a few words with the Crown Prince!"

"Humph!"

Li Shimin snorted coldly, neither agreeing nor stopping it.

But then Changsun Wuji turned to Li Chengqian and said, "Chengqian."

"Please call me Prince, uncle!"

Li Chengqian glanced at him coldly.

Zhangsun Wuji was slightly startled, but immediately suppressed his uncle's affection for his nephew. He said solemnly, "Your Highness, please listen to me. You have already killed those traitors. According to current national law, you have fulfilled the national law. As for the nine clans of execution you mentioned, His Majesty has not yet issued an edict to amend the death penalty. Therefore, the nine clans of execution is not in accordance with the national law of the Tang Dynasty."

"If you insist on having your own way, you will be interfering with public interests."

"Shh!"

When Li Chengqian heard what Changsun Wuji said, his expression changed instantly.

The reason why he was able to kill those officials from aristocratic families with justification before was because he had sufficient evidence, legitimate laws, and thunder-like methods.

Moreover, he also took advantage of the "Dang Renhong case" to prevent Li Shimin from interfering with public interests.

But now, Changsun Wuji's words clearly deprived him of his legitimate reasons.

If he still wanted to achieve his goal, there was only one way, and that was to ask Li Shimin to issue an edict.

However, given Li Shimin's current attitude, it is almost impossible to get him to issue an edict.

At this moment, Xiao Yu's voice suddenly rang out again:

"Your Highness, the main culprit has been killed, and you have a way to deal with them. Please stop making trouble. Look at what the court has become because of you. Who will fill these vacant official positions?"

Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian frowned instantly.

At this time, Fang Xuanling also said with a hint of complaint: "We worked so hard to evaluate the officials, but now most of them are gone. What should we do?"

"Yes, Your Highness! The imperial examination has just ended. Even if we want to use them, we have to wait two years. But now what should we do with these vacant officials?"

"Your Highness, please stop. The Tang Dynasty can no longer withstand your turmoil!"

"Your Highness, please think twice!"

As Fang Xuanling finished speaking, Du Ruhui, Yang Shidao, Fu Yi, Duan Lun, Hou Junji, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong, as well as ministers such as Chu Suiliang and Yu Shinan all stood up and advised Li Chengqian.

Hearing this, Li Chengqian became furious and said unhappily, "Isn't it just talent in governing the country? I have it too!"

"Hehe, are the talents that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has enough for you to kill just now?" A minister suddenly sneered.

"Be bold!"

Li Chengqian shouted in a deep voice and immediately looked in the direction of the voice. He saw a middle-aged minister looking back at him fearlessly. He frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

The middle-aged minister replied calmly, "The Imperial Censor, Zhang Xuansu!"

"Zhang Xuansu?"

Li Chengqian was slightly stunned and thought to himself, why does this name sound familiar?
Oh! I remember now!

The original body’s assassination target!

My goodness, what a narrow road for enemies to cross!
It seems that even if I travel through time with my original body, the bad karma of my original body will not disappear.

Thinking of this, Li Chengqian couldn't help but look deeply at Zhang Xuansu, then ignored him and glanced at everyone else and said, "Do you think that apart from Ma Zhou, Su Dingfang and the others, I don't have any other talents?"

"Even if there are talented people, they are not capable of governing the country!" Zhang Xuansu retorted disdainfully.

Li Chengqian was so angry that he raised his finger and pointed: "What do you know!"

After saying that, he directly ordered Pei Xuan: "Pei Xuan, call up all the directors and deputy directors of our Jiangling 24 bureaus and show them what it means to be a talent for governing a country!"

"promise!"

Upon hearing this, Pei Xuan immediately agreed and retreated.

Soon, he brought a team of hundreds of people and slowly came in front of everyone.

"I will see you, Your Majesty!"

Hundreds of directors and deputy directors of Jiangling’s 24th Bureau saluted in unison.

"No need for formalities!" Li Shimin smiled and raised his hand to gesture.

But then Li Chengqian said loudly: "Tell them your positions and responsibilities!"

"As ordered!"

The directors all spoke in unison, and then stood up one by one and introduced themselves:
"Director of the Jiangling Public Security Bureau, responsible for Jiangling's public security, criminal investigation, traffic management, etc."

"Director of the Jiangling Finance Bureau, responsible for Jiangling's financial management, revenue and expenditure budget, and supervision of state-owned assets."

"Director of the Jiangling Market Supervision Bureau, responsible for supervising the Jiangling market order, cracking down on illegal operations, and protecting consumer rights."

"Director of the Transportation Bureau. Director of the Education Bureau. Director of the Justice Bureau. Director of the Agriculture Bureau. Director of the Health Bureau."

As the Jiangling directors introduced their positions and responsibilities one by one, everyone present, including Li Shimin, was stunned and confused.

They could understand those words, those characters, and even some functions, but when they were put together, they were all confused.

However, seeing their conversation, temperament, and the confidence that comes from long-term management work, it is not difficult for them to see that these directors are definitely talented.

But why are there so many talented people in Jiangling?

Not only were all the people present puzzled, but even Li Shimin was full of curiosity.

However, before Li Shimin could open his mouth to ask, a minister in the crowd mocked him and said, "Do you think that by changing your name to something incomprehensible, you can be considered a talent for governing the country? If talent for governing the country is really so easy to cultivate, then..."

"Sir, what are you responsible for at the court?"

Before the other party could finish his mocking words, a Jiangling director stood up.

The lord's face darkened. "Who do you think you are? How dare you be compared to me?"

"Oh, he doesn't even dare to say he's responsible for anything. He seems like a worthless official who just sits in office and does nothing for free!"

"presumptuous!"

The lord was about to rebuke the other man when he heard another voice from the crowd: "This is Ge Ping, a doctor in the Ministry of Revenue. He's in charge of household registration, land, taxes and labor service, tribute, exemptions, restorations, marriages, succession, and other matters."

"Who?! Who will take over from me?"

When Ge Ping heard the voice, he immediately looked in the direction of the voice with an angry face. Seeing that the person who spoke was Xu Jingzong, he could not help but get angry and said, "How dare you meddle in my business?"

"This"

Xu Jingzong looked embarrassed and quickly looked at Li Shimin.

Li Shimin just smiled slightly, but ignored him. Instead, he looked at the director with interest.

Then the director suddenly realized, "So you're a doctor from the Ministry of Revenue, just like me. I'm Li Xinqi, the director of the Finance Bureau. I know a little bit about taxes. Let's talk about taxes. I'm currently in Jiangling Prefecture, managing the 28 prefectures of the Crown Prince. As for taxes, we use the Two Tax System."

"What is the Two Tax Law?"

Fang Xuanling asked subconsciously.

Because they had discussed the new taxes with Li Shimin before.

Li Xinqi smiled and explained, "The so-called Two Tax System abolishes the existing rent, labor service, and miscellaneous taxes in the Tang Dynasty, retaining the household tax and land tax. The total tax amount will be determined by the Finance Bureau and then distributed to local governments for completion.

Household taxes are levied based on household status and assets. Those with higher status pay more, while those with lower status pay less. Land taxes are levied on grain per mu, which can be converted into silk and cloth.

"Taxes will be collected in spring and autumn. Merchants who do not settle down will also be taxed according to the proportion of their property."

"This"

Fang Xuanling and others were stunned when they heard this, thinking, isn't this the new tax law that they haven't sorted out yet?
Good guy!
Jiang Ling is actually already implementing it!

Moreover, the fact that the director of the Finance Bureau can list them all clearly shows that the tax law has been effectively implemented!
He said he understood a little?!

Oh my god! A talent for governing a country! Absolutely a talent for governing a country!

However, before Fang Xuanling could excitedly advise Li Shimin to use Li Xinqi, he heard another Jiangling director stand up and said: "Director Li talked about taxes, and now it's my turn. I am Dong Shan, the director of the Land and Resources Bureau. I also have some experience in land reform."

Immediately afterwards, all the Jiangling directors related to the Ministry of Revenue stood up to talk about their own governance strategies, which made the civil and military officials present feel their scalps tingle and they all applauded.

Especially Li Shimin, he was so excited that he couldn't close his mouth.

As for Ge Ping, the doctor of the Ministry of Revenue, he had buried his head in his crotch in shame and shouted in frustration, "I am the clown."

Zhang Xuansu retreated without saying a word.

"Good, good, good! All the talents in the world are in my hands!"

Li Shimin glanced at the twenty-four directors and their deputy directors with great satisfaction, thinking that this would supplement the officials from aristocratic families killed by Li Chengqian.

snort!
My guess was right, this rebellious son had already made preparations.

However, if I use these people, wouldn’t half of the officials in the court be prince’s party?

It seems that this rebellious son has also plotted against me!

It's not a triple conspiracy, it's a quadruple conspiracy
Thinking of this, Li Shimin immediately suppressed his excitement and looked at Li Chengqian with a burning gaze. It was not until Li Chengqian noticed his abnormality that he suddenly asked, "Are you sure you want to kill the tens of thousands of people outside?"

"Ok?"

Li Chengqian was slightly stunned, then immediately looked up at Li Shimin. The two looked at each other for a moment, and Li Chengqian guessed what Li Shimin was thinking. He grinned and said, "Father, the boss wasn't given the power by anyone, he was killed for it, right?"

"Humph!"

Li Shimin snorted coldly and issued an order without saying a word: "Minister of the Central Secretariat, pass on my decree to execute all the criminals who murdered the crown prince, along with their entire clans!"

boom!
The whole audience was shocked!

Fang Xuanling and others, who had just been rejoicing that the Tang Dynasty had talented people to govern the country, were completely stunned when they heard Li Shimin's decree.

Even Wei Zheng couldn't help but stand up and said: "Your Majesty, you are wrong again"

"Wei Zheng! Shut up!"

"minister"

Faced with Li Shimin's murderous eyes, even Wei Zheng could not stop him.

At this moment, Li Chengqian's voice rang out again: "Pei Xuan, kill—!"

 Please vote for me monthly, I will update more when the votes reach 1000, please vote for me monthly guaranteed!
