The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1062

Even if he didn't commit suicide, he would still face certain death.

Upon seeing the dead Li Yuan, the soldiers who were still fighting instantly laid down their swords.

"This matter cannot be entirely blamed on you; you were merely following orders. As long as you are willing to repent and reform, our Great Tang will still accept you."

Xu Tian shouted directly from the platform.

Upon hearing his words, all the soldiers lowered their weapons.

Xu Tian immediately ordered his men to arrest them all.

"As long as they are willing, those who reform in prison can be sent back to their hometowns after they serve their full sentences."

Xu Tian did all this in accordance with Li Zhi's request.

Since you know that such words have already been said, he cannot directly go against his wishes and kill all these people.

Although these people are not innocent either.

They must have all participated in this treason.

Although these people were indeed just following orders.

But since they obeyed orders, it meant they had already given up their lives.

Those who plot rebellion will not have a good end.

Therefore, if these people harbor any ill intentions in the future, they will face execution.

It's just a matter of time, so Xu Tian isn't in such a hurry.

They took Li Yuan's body directly and transported it back to his original residence.

Although he became the mastermind behind this conspiracy.

But in the end, he was also the biggest failure.

Even after he died, he remained a prince.

They must still be buried in the manner befitting a prince.

Xu Tian knew Li Zhi's character well and would never use Li Yuan's corpse to make a fuss.

This is what he has always been most worried about.

Li Zhi was too indecisive. If someone in that position is too indecisive, they are likely to become a mediocre ruler.

Li Zhi was still young, so he could naturally receive more instruction.

He directly ordered the commander of the Imperial Guards to stay behind and clean up the mess.

He then entered the Imperial Study.

Looking at Li Zhi, who was silent behind the table.

Xu Tian swallowed all the words he wanted to say.

Some things are simply not suitable to be said now.

There's still a long time ahead; he can guide and comfort her gradually.

"Your Majesty! Li Yuan's remaining followers have been completely wiped out."

Because of Xu Tian's scheme, all of Li Yuan's henchmen in the palace have been caught and killed.

Li Zhi's eyes revealed sadness.

He simply nodded.

Subsequently, an imperial edict was drafted.

He handed the imperial edict to Xu Tian.

"Master, you may go down and read this imperial edict."

Xu Tian nodded.

Even without looking, one knows exactly what the higher-ups have said.

This time, Li Yuan's rebellion and their execution of him served as a warning to others.

This was all to reassure those people.

Tell them not to covet the position.

Xu Tian and the others had already figured it out.

Those princes might also have had the same idea.

However, they didn't have Li Yuan's guts.

These are turbulent times.

In the next few days, all the princes in the capital will sever ties with Li Yuan.

Just then, the father-in-law outside delivered a message.

"Your Majesty, Xun Qinwang requests an audience!"

Xun Qinwang can be said to have had the greatest enmity with Li Yuan all along.

Now that he knows that Yuan Liyuan is dead, he should be very happy! However, Xu Tian seemed a little puzzled by his arrival at this time.
