Prince of the Tang Dynasty: Signing in began with harming Li Shimin

Chapter 550

Cui Jue's words were like enlightenment, making most civil and military officials blush and excited.

After all, all the people present are old foxes who have been in the court for many years, so how can they not know why Cui Jue voluntarily handed over all his family wealth.

This is obviously giving up money to save life, in order to calm Li Shimin's anger.

No matter what you think about it, it is absolutely impossible for Li Shimin to take the risk of chaos and put all corrupt officials in jail.

That being the case, His Majesty Li Er, who has always been strong, can only choose to be forced to compromise.

Turn a blind eye and close one eye to let go of most corrupt officials, and only catch the giants among them to alert the world.

But checking the accounts exposed the corruption to the public, and with His Majesty Li Er's temperament, he couldn't pretend to turn a blind eye.

Therefore, if corrupt officials want to save their lives, they urgently need to find an excuse for Li Shimin to use as a step.

Otherwise, Li Shimin, whose majesty has been damaged, will definitely not let it go.

But now, Cui Jue's words are obviously the most suitable excuse.

Presumably, as long as everyone makes up for the embezzled wealth, Li Shimin will no longer pursue his past mistakes.

"His Majesty!

Weichen is willing to take out [-] guan of copper coins as security for Chief Cui and the Ministry of Punishment. "

Thinking of this, an official strode out of Ban Yizheng and said.

Seeing this, the rest of the people immediately scrambled to pay homage: "Your Majesty!

Weichen is also willing to take out [-] guan of copper coins as security for Chief Cui and the Ministry of Punishment! "

"His Majesty!

My minister is willing to give out fifty thousand copper coins..."

"Weichen is willing to give out one hundred thousand copper coins..."

"I wish..."

"..."

Everyone talked and reported the specific amount, as if they were loyal ministers and righteous men who shared the worries of the king.

It's just that this huge amount of tens of thousands of guan, even Fang Xuanling and others were shocked when they heard it.

After all, the tax revenue in the early years of Zhenguan was only about 1000 million guan, but at this moment, the amount reported by everyone has exceeded 300 million guan.

And so far, most of the courtiers are still waiting, just waiting for the registered people to be free.

In this way, today's harvest is very likely to exceed the court's annual tax revenue.

Such a huge amount of funds really shocked Fang Xuanling and the others who were used to being hard-pressed.

But when the same information entered Li Shimin's ears, it really made him feel refreshed.

Even though letting go of corrupt officials made him quite unhappy, the accumulated wealth of millions is enough to heal his wounded heart.

Seeing this, the corrupt officials of the Manchu Dynasty also breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as Li Shimin doesn't pursue it anymore, the Wanguan family's wealth will be given up.

After all, this moment is no longer a competition for wealth, but a fight for the whole family.

Presumably, if someone dared to pretend to be stupid, he would be greeted by the siege of his colleagues.

"His Royal Highness is indeed resourceful, and a little trick can resolve this crisis.

Compared with His Highness, the old man and others are like pearls of rice competing with the bright moon! "

In the corner of Tai Chi Hall, Fang Xuanling leaned forward and said mockingly.

Li Jingwen was stunned, and smiled with the corner of his mouth up: "I really don't know, Fang Xiang also likes "Fengshen Yanyi".

It is really a great blessing in life that words like the light of rice grains can be recognized by Fang Xiang! "

"Hehe~

Now that the matter has come to this, why does His Highness bother to talk about him. "

Fang Xuanling shook his head when he heard the words, and said with a wry smile: "Your Highness set up a trap to lure the children of the aristocratic family into being fooled, but I don't know why Yiai and Yizhi are involved.

If the old man hadn't ordered someone to deal with it that day, the two of them would have been doomed today! "

"Hahaha~

Fang Xiang really worried too much. "

Li Jing scratched his head awkwardly and laughed.

Facing Li Shimin's angry gaze, he said frankly: "My lords are all wise men of the Tang Dynasty.

Such shallow tricks of this palace can only deceive fools from aristocratic families, how can they deceive the eyes of all adults.

Thinking about it, if it weren't for this, the emperor would definitely not agree to my plan. "

"Hehe~"

When Fang Xuanling and the others heard this, they all smiled wryly and shook their heads.

Li Jing's remarks seem to be explanations, but they are actually putting the blame on Li Shimin.

If they continue to hold on to it, they really have some intentions to contend against the imperial power.

"His Highness the Crown Prince is clever, but this humble minister is really no match for His Highness.

It's just that His Highness's plan is really a bit...

hehe~

It is better to use less in the future. "

Seeing Fang Xuanling's retreat, Changsun Wuji stepped forward and said solemnly.

He didn't intend to argue with Li Jing to win or lose, but he was vaguely unhappy.

Seeing this, Li Jing frowned imperceptibly.

Fu put on a friendly smile again, and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid Uncle Changsun doesn't know, but the common people secretly call you Changsun old fox.

The common people also think that the tricks that this palace uses on weekdays are all secretly taught by you, your uncle.

If my uncle really thinks this plan is despicable and shameless, and it's hard to tell, I'm afraid the people will laugh at him secretly again tomorrow. "

"you!!!

How wronged I am! ! ! "

Changsun Wuji sighed pretending to be sad, but a sense of vigilance suddenly rose in his heart.

As the patriarch of the eldest grandson family, he doesn't know whether the common people are secretly laughing at him.

But it was also because of this that he suddenly woke up.

After all, when Li Jing mentioned this matter at this moment, he obviously wanted to take the opportunity to beat him up.

Once Li Jing is dissatisfied with his words and deeds, all the blame for the review project in the past few days will definitely fall on him.

At that time, the officials who are forced to donate their family wealth will naturally vent their grievances on the eldest grandson.

And whether Li Jing can do this, presumably Qinghe Cui's wronged soul is enough proof.

If he dared to test Li Jing intentionally or unintentionally, the days to come would be extremely sad.

only……

As an uncle, he was threatened by his nephew, how could he, who was in a high position, bear it.

It seems that after this crisis is over, it is time for him to fight Li Jing.

Thinking about it, as long as he handles it properly, the emperor and empress will not blame him.

……

"Hehe~

Prince, how dare you threaten the eldest grandson Fuji! ! !

I have known him for many years as a father, and I have never seen an auxiliary machine suffer a loss! "

Ganlu Temple.

After the father and son dispersed, they went straight back.

Li Shimin listened carefully to Li Jing's narration, and said extremely gloatingly.

Seeing this, Li Jing curled his lips, and replied dissatisfied: "If the father hadn't been appointed by the emperor Jin as the minister's servant to shoot, why should the child warn him in public.

Father should know that extreme grace and power will breed ambition.

The eldest grandson's uncle was originally a relative, backed by his mother and queen.

In the eyes of all the officials, there was a hidden potential to surpass Fang Xuanling.

Now that the royal father suddenly named him as Minister of Public Affairs, I think there will be more people from all the officials to take refuge in him.

And the onlookers who were originally above the court will also get close to Uncle Changsun because of this.

Once the Guanlong Group led by him is allowed to control most of the officials...

Father, Uncle Changsun is afraid that he will become the most powerful minister of the Tang Dynasty in the future! "

"Hi~"

Li Shimin gasped when he heard the words, and his playful expression disappeared in an instant.

He met Changsun Wuji when he was young, and he naturally trusted him a little more.

What's more, with the relationship between the eldest grandson empress, he never doubted that eldest grandson Wuji would be proud of his favor.

But now, after hearing what Li Jing said, he just realized that he seemed to have treated Changsun Wuji too favorably in the past.

If it really caused him to have thoughts that he shouldn't have, he, Li Shimin, must also bear the blame.

"This time it is indeed my father's carelessness."

Li Shimin stroked his beard lightly, and said solemnly: "Let's let this matter go, don't say anything.

After discussing with your mother as a father, it will not be too late to deal with it. "

"The child obeys the order!"
