Datang: My private money was exposed by Li Shimin

Li Family Mansion.

Li Shimin's bold words reached everyone's ears, and everyone laughed.

"Is the emperor insane?" Lu Yaosun asked with a smile.

"He's just trying to confuse us. There's still an hour before sunset. Before sunset, the emperor will definitely come to our door and beg for mercy." Li Yuankai said.

Li Yuankai picked up his wine glass and looked at the dusk in Chang'an, as if he was counting down the time for the Li Tang dynasty.

"Even though Li Shimin has three heads and six arms, if he does not agree to the request of our family, how can the crisis of the Tang Dynasty be resolved?"

"Brother Li said that there are countless hungry people in Chang'an City, and the emperor's food is not enough. How can he, Li Shimin, feed the people and make him mad? Let's see how he can calm the people's grievances."

"Our aristocratic family join forces, even Li Tang has to be afraid of me three points, no, seven points."

Zheng Xiandao: "What if the emperor really doesn't surrender?"

Cui Guangquan sneered: "Then let's change to another emperor, his son Li Chengqian, surely he doesn't want to repeat his father's mistakes, right?"

"Whoever is obedient, let him be the emperor!"

Cui Guangcheng laughed and said: "If the Li family is not obedient, then we might as well change to another dynasty."

Everyone chatted happily with wine and enjoyed themselves to the extreme.

After a while, night fell.

But Li Shimin's figure never appeared.

Everyone looked a little embarrassed, but they didn't take it seriously.

"If you don't come today, come back tomorrow, but this is not the condition!"

Tai Chi Temple.

Bright lights.

ugly time.

Li Shimin stood on the square, looking at the hundreds of vehicles transporting potatoes and silver, although his face was tired, he was extremely excited.

"One more time, it will all be shipped back."

There were too many potatoes and silver in Li Jian's house, and it took them all night.

On the square, potatoes and silver were piled up into high mountains.Covered with sackcloth.

In order to prevent leakage of news, Li Shimin sent Li Junxian to lead thousands of Jinwu Guards to guard them closely.

Anyone who dares to approach will be shot to death.

Outside the imperial city, in order to prevent the hungry people from recurring, there are still some Jinwu Guards and imperial guards.

Half an hour later, thousands of carriages drove in, and soldiers hurriedly unloaded potatoes and silver.

A school lieutenant came forward and reported: "Your Majesty, all the potatoes and silver in Daiwang's mansion have been transported!"

Li Shimin finally let out a long sigh of relief.

He praised a few words and ordered the soldiers to retreat.

Although Li Shimin's eyes were red, he couldn't hide the excitement on his face.

There is a hint of whiteness in the east, and the sky has gradually brightened.

It's almost morning time.

On the square, the shadows of officials appeared one by one, walking slowly towards the Tai Chi Hall.

As soon as everyone arrived outside the main hall, they saw a line of Jinwu guards wearing armor and holding weapons, and they couldn't help being shocked.

Everyone's pupils shrank, their expressions were dignified, and they hurriedly lowered their heads.

Before going to court, there has never been a heavy guard.I'm afraid that His Majesty was cornered by the five surnames and Qiwang and other aristocratic families, and became fierce and murderous.

Some ministers were terrified and thought to themselves, this morning, they must not talk nonsense, which would offend the emperor and cause death.

The side hall was full of civil and military officials.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, no one dared to say more.

Wei Zheng, Gao Shilian and other ministers couldn't help frowning.

Wei Zheng looked at Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Changsun Wuji in the crowd, but saw that they were beaming, turning a blind eye to the serious atmosphere around them.

He was even more suspicious.

At this time, a small eunuch opened the door of the side hall, and all the ministers entered the Taiji Hall.

After a while, I heard the servant shout loudly: "Your Majesty is here!"

Before the words were finished, Li Shimin came in from the back hall and sat on the dragon chair.

Everyone looked up and couldn't help being surprised.

Li Shimin's eyes were red and bloodshot, his face was tired and his hair was messy.

He was so excited that he only hurriedly changed into a dragon robe and didn't wash up at all.

Wei Zheng, Qin Qiong, Li Jing and other people who didn't know the truth all trembled.

But Fang Xuanling and Cheng Yaojin are all calm and peaceful.

The children of those aristocratic families were stunned for a moment, and then looked at each other, all showing ecstasy.

Li Shimin was so worried that he stayed up all night?

Today he will compromise with us.

Cui Dunli, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, said: "Your Majesty, the Tang Dynasty has been plagued by disasters for many years. I hope your Majesty will take good care of the dragon body. The Tang Dynasty still needs your majesty's support." He is from the Cui family of Boling.

"I think that the demands made by the Cui family, the Wang family and others can be met a while ago, but now it is the time when there is a shortage of manpower, and food, grass, gold and silver are urgently needed. If you agree to the family's request, the Tang Dynasty will definitely be able to tide over the difficulties, if not... "

Chen Guogong and Hou Jun gathered together.

Changsun Shunde said: "Your Majesty, the old minister agrees with Chen Guogong's words."

"The Cui family and Zheng Jia are the people of my Tang Dynasty, and they also have the heart to serve the country with fists. If we don't use it, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of the people in the world..."

Zhang Liang said: "Your Majesty, the Zheng family, the Cui family and other big families did not intend to control the Tang Dynasty as rumored outside. Now that the Turkic army is going south, it is an extremely critical juncture. Please don't stick to prejudices and appoint this kind of family that has been passed down for a long time..."

There were three of them first, and the children of the other aristocratic families all admonished them one after another.

At least half of them are from the family.

Li Shimin glanced at the three of them coldly.

He had known for a long time that Hou Junji had always been in close contact with the aristocratic family.

The eldest grandson Shunde and Li Yuankai of the Li family in Longxi had a good relationship.

And Zhang Liang is a relative of the Zheng family in Xingyang, and his wife is the daughter of the Li family in Zhaojun, so he is naturally a member of the family.

Li Shimin suddenly sent out a murderous look.

"I thought that all of you have been with me for many years, and you are already my confidantes, just like the roundworms in my stomach."

"Really, my virtuous minister."

Li Shimin laughed wildly, and the ministers in the audience were puzzled.

Suddenly, Li Shimin changed the subject.

"Don't you think I'm Liu Chan?"

"Each of them harbors evil intentions. If it weren't for the current crisis in Tang Dynasty, I would never forgive them lightly!"

Several people in the audience exchanged glances, and it took only a day.

Why did Li Shimin's attitude change so much?so tough?
"Do those aristocratic families only want these? What they want is to completely control the Tang court!" Li Shimin scanned the crowd with a stern expression.

"They want me to become a puppet completely!"

"If I am disobedient, I can change it at any time!"

"Hou Junji, Zhang Liang, Changsun Shunde, I know that you are not friends with aristocratic families, or you are from aristocratic families yourself. Do you think that if you change to another dynasty, you can still enjoy the glory and wealth?"

"It's just wishful thinking!"

"You are all following me to fight the world, in exchange for all this."

"The aristocratic family founded a new dynasty, how could they reuse you again? If you don't kill the rabbits, it's their kindness..."

Everyone's hearts were beating.

Hou Junji hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I absolutely have no such intention! I am loyal to Datang..."

"Shut up!" Li Shimin stopped him, too lazy to listen to his sophistry.

"Driving on Suzaku Avenue..."
