Datang: I was tricked by the system

"The children of these aristocratic families, their allegiance is naturally not the emperor, but their families!"

"In this way, whenever there is something that touches the interests of their family, this group of people will stand up to oppose, persecute, and even make small moves behind the scenes."

Li Yuan said, unable to smile, "The reason why the former dynasty perished so quickly was not only because of Emperor Sui Yang's tyranny, but also because some policies of Emperor Sui Yang touched the interests of these clans. It worked out so quickly."

Li Yi nodded, he understood that every dynasty needed to rely on these aristocratic families to develop at the beginning of its establishment, so that many people were raised for the aristocratic families in the dynasty.

"So the reason why you became the emperor is also the credit of the family?"

Li Yuan nodded, and said with a wry smile, "Those people from the aristocratic family think that I look like an honest person, and want to support me as a puppet in their hands. Not only I, but even the selection of the prince is also a matter of the aristocratic family. behind the controls."

Otherwise, he is not a fool, why let the courageous and resourceful Li Shimin not be elected, and make Li Jian the crown prince.

"This is the dynasty of flowing water, the family of iron." The sadness in it can only be understood by those who have experienced it personally.

It is precisely because of this that Li Yuan is unwilling to let Li Shimin continue to cooperate with the aristocratic family and seek skin from the tiger.

At the beginning, he did not stand up for Li Shimin, and it was entirely to protect him, but who would have thought that he would eventually...

The reason why he came to borrow food from Li Yi was because he didn't want Li Shimin to continue to be controlled by the aristocratic family. On the other hand, in his opinion, Li Yi was the only one who was able to fight against the aristocratic family. .

After all, he is the blood of Li Tang's royal family. Even if one day, Li Shimin really can't hold on anymore, with Li Yi around, Li Tang's era will not end.

To be honest, what Li Yuan said today really overturned Li Yi's cognition, he didn't expect the family's hand to be so long.

"It's no wonder they have the guts to confront the emperor, and dare to take my Youtang's economy off the table without hesitation."

Their purpose is very simple, as long as the people can't survive, they will definitely turn against Li Yi. At that time, they can naturally use the same method, either to help Li Shimin, or to support a new puppet just like they supported Li Yuan.

Li Yuan sighed.

"Not only that, these aristocratic families seem to have been inherited for a long time and are glamorous and beautiful, but in fact they have long been unsightly and disgusting. Over the years, they have relied on natural disasters, wars, and embezzled relief food, and even the pensions of dead soldiers They also dare to take it privately."

"They have long since changed from the aristocratic families that the common people admire and rely on, to vampires and leeches in human skin."

Li Yuan was filled with righteous indignation when talking about the dirty things of the aristocratic family, and felt that he couldn't finish talking for three days and three nights.

"Kakkaka!"

After Li Yuan finished speaking, there was a clicking sound in his ears. It was the sound made by him clenching his fists because of anger.

"Since this is the case, then don't blame the emperor and show no mercy."

"Are you going against the aristocratic family?" Li Yuan was a little shocked, but it was expected.

Right?

Of course more!

Those who robbed their mines and destroyed them are no longer right, they have already become enemies. If he had known this earlier, he would have been more ruthless.

This time, Li Yi was indeed murderous towards those aristocratic families.

Because he found that these people were not only moths, but also a stumbling block to his achievement of the empire.

Others want to be attached to the family, but he doesn't need it. Since they dare to make trouble for him, they have to bear the consequences.

Seeing this, Li Yuan took the opportunity to ask, "Boy, since your grandpa and I have told you so many things you don't know, just lend us some food."

Li Yi sneered, "You have nothing to do with yourself, so what have you got to do with me?"

"But... the aristocratic family is not..."

"They won't let you go."

"So what?" Li Yi sneered, "I will waste some time at worst, just kill them."

Besides, he didn't say that he would let them go.

Li Yuan blew his beard and stared at him. The extermination of the family is what he has always wanted to see, but the most important issue now is the victims. You can't just watch them starve to death, can you?
"Then how can you lend me food?"

He really said so much in vain, how could this stinky brat not eat oil and salt?

"Don't borrow!"

Li Yi didn't leave Li Yuan any room for negotiation.

Li Yuan was silent for a moment, as if he had made up his mind, he gritted his teeth and said: "I have a private army in my hands, which is secretly trained to deal with the family one day. The number is not large, less than [-], but each of them They are all carefully selected after many battles, and now for the people of Datang, I am willing to give them to you in exchange for food."

"Private army?"

Li Yi raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that the old man Li Yuan actually had an army in his hands. Although the number was a little smaller, compared to recruits, one was worth ten, which was not bad.

"Since you have a private army, why didn't you take it out during the Xuanwu Gate change?"

Li Yuan sighed helplessly, "This army is reserved by me to deal with the aristocratic family, and Li Shimin is my son."

The meaning is self-evident.

Li Shimin is his son, he will not kill.

Besides, as long as the aristocratic family is killed, it doesn't matter who is the emperor?
It's a pity for his sons and grandchildren.

"The emperor made this deal with you."

Li Yi nodded. Originally, he didn't intend to ignore the people, but they were Li Shimin's people after all, so he always felt uncomfortable with the food relief.

Now, if he uses private soldiers as an exchange, not only will he not lose money, but he can also earn a good reputation.

It's a good deal.

Seeing that Li Yi agreed, Li Yuan was not happy. Instead, he blew his beard and stared, "You little bastard, you are really snobbish."

"Where is that private army now? How could they obey my emperor's orders?" Li Yi asked the question he was most concerned about.

"They are the old forces under my hidden subordinates and the former princeling party. When I came to Youzhou this time, I had already sent them a letter to let them disperse to Youzhou. They were thirty miles outside the city of Youzhou at this time. in one of the valleys."

"Here is a soldier talisman that can mobilize them." While speaking, Li Yuan had already handed the soldier talisman to Li Yi.

Compared with others, he believed that Li Yi could deal with the family.

This is also the greatest wish of his life.

This time he came to Youzhou, he did not act impulsively, he had already made plans for this private army, but the timing was just right.

It can not only help Li Yi, but also help Li Er. After all, the palms and backs of the hands are all flesh.

Li Yi took the soldier talisman, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart, he looked at Li Yuan, "You must have made a plan a long time ago."

[Hoohoo...It's cold, it's cold...Take care, babies...]
