Li Shimin

Li Chengqian and Li Chongyi couldn't tell that Li Xuan was angry or happy.

noon.

The warm sun was shining brightly, and Li Yuan also came to Lijiazhuang.

Same thing.

"Old man, have they bothered you too?" Li Xuan said with a speechless expression.

"Erlang crowned the kings of those families and caused great excitement to those bastards!"

Li Yuan sighed helplessly.

"Humph!"

Li Xuan was also very helpless, "Old man, do they know that the cities of those vassal states are sparsely populated, even in the city of Goguryeo, there are not a thousand households in each city! Even the three cities of Goguryeo and Baekje, which are small countries, are all sparsely populated. It can't compare to a city in my Tang Dynasty!"

"And the two kings of Goguryeo and Baekje are not as nourished as the life of the first prince of the Tang Dynasty!"

Li Yuan: "..."

Li Chengqian and Li Chongyi: "..."

Several people were speechless, feeling that Li Xuan was exaggerating.

Goguryeo has a vast Liao Dynasty, and there are many ores in it, and its national soldiers can compete with Datang one or two.

The ruler of such a big country is not as good as a prince of my Tang Dynasty?

Seeing this, Li Xuan could not help but sigh.

"Old man, the prince of the Tang Dynasty is a first-class prince, with [-] households in the city, and even the king of the county has [-] households in the city, of course there are a few.

They don't worry about anything every day, and they have hundreds of thousands of officials' salaries a year, which is enough for them to eat, drink and have fun, and no one dares to provoke them!

And if you go to those vassal states, the journey is far away, and it is still very barren..."

As he said that, Li Xuan suddenly thought of something, and his face brightened.

"Old man, in fact, if they want to go outside the Tang Dynasty, like those aristocratic families, capture a few cities and let His Majesty grant them the kingdom, it would be a great thing!

In Datang, they were wasting the lives of the people of the Tang Dynasty for nothing, bullying men and women all day long, and doing nothing.

If they are all thrown out and let them manage a small country by themselves, it will not only save the consumption of the Tang treasury, but also save many people of the Tang Dynasty.

Moreover, they can also let me expand the territory of Datang. "

"Xuan Ba ​​also agrees?"

Hearing this, Li Yuan's expression brightened.

"I agree!"

Li Xuan was taken aback, and quickly replied, "Besides, I have never objected!"

……

Chapter 547

"From the very beginning, I suggested that His Majesty let those noble families have nothing to do to attack those barbarian countries. When various countries were established, they did not prohibit these Li clansmen from attacking those small countries.

The reason why I didn’t encourage those princes, county kings, and princes to attack those vassal states and expand the territory for my Tang Dynasty is that I was afraid of those bastards who would curse me behind my back and torture them! "

"Since they are very envious of the Cui and Zheng families, let them take their own soldiers and expand their territories.

You should even suggest that your Majesty go down and encourage them to expand their borders, and as long as they have the ability to attack those barbarian countries, they will be given the country and granted him the status of a kingdom.

But as long as they go out to found a country, our Tang Dynasty should stop paying them salaries and revoke their original titles. "

"Furthermore, the nobles of the entire Tang Dynasty can also enjoy this kind of treatment. As long as they have the ability to go out to open up, build a country by themselves, and be the lord of the country, then His Majesty should support them and let them go abroad to do whatever they want. Do whatever you want.

However, all their salaries in Datang will be stopped.Moreover, after the establishment of the kingdom, it has to pay taxes to Datang every year.

In this way, if one hundred Tang Li clansmen and Tang nobles could go out to expand the territory and establish the kingdom.

Then, my Tang Dynasty is the real kingdom of heaven, the land of China.

Outside my Great Tang, there will be hundreds of kingdoms, defending my Great Tang layer by layer.

So, what kind of foreign race can invade the border of our Tang Dynasty? "

Hearing this, Li Yuan, Li Chengqian and the others couldn't help but widen their eyes with shock.

It can still be like this!

"Also, if those royal families and nobles go out to the Great Tang to establish the country, they can also hand over their kingdom to the Great Tang and let the Great Tang manage it.

But they have to govern their country for a year..."

In this way, some words come down.

Li Yuan, Li Chengqian and others were also relieved.

No matter what, letting those bastards go out to attack a few cities and expand the territory for the Great Tang will definitely do more good than harm!

It's just that, in order not to let those bastards say that they deliberately entrapped them, they still have to explain everything clearly.

Afterwards, Li Chengqian hurriedly recorded Li Xuan's words with Fang Yizhi and others.

Holding it, he ran to Tai Chi Palace.

For this matter, they are also very headache.

Although Li Tang had only established the country for more than ten years, there were already dozens of princes in Li Tang's clan.

These princes are all very close people.

Ever since the Qinghe Cui family, Xingyang Zheng family, and Fanyang Lu family were crowned kings, these relatives of Li Tang's clan began to look green. They were bewitched by someone, and jumped up and down one by one.

Not only wrote memorials to Li Shimin, but even Li Yuan, Li Chengqian and others did not let them go.

Inside the Hall of Two Rites.

Li Fengci, King of Bohai, Li Boyi, King of Longxi, Li Daoxing, King of Guangning County, Li Xiaoxie, Duke of Xun, Li Daoyan, Duke of Jiaodong County, Li Daobi, Duke of Boling County, Li Daozong, King of Jiangxia County, Li Xiaogong, King of Hejian County...

More than a dozen of Li's clan relatives in Chang'an stood in front of Li Shimin with sad faces.

For these people, Li Shimin was also full of helplessness.

In terms of relationship and blood relationship, these Li clansmen are the foundation of the Tang Dynasty.

In terms of ability, apart from Li Daozong and Li Xiaogong, among these people, there is really no one he can look up to!

However, it is also this group of people who are difficult to deal with.

"You are envious of those aristocratic families who captured Tuyuhun, Baekje and other countries. But, have you ever thought about, apart from Daozong and Xiaogong, what ability do you have to capture the cities of those small countries, what ability do you have to govern those city?

Even, in the face of the counterattack of those small countries, what ability do you have to defend? "

Li Shimin let out a sigh of relief, his face full of helplessness.

What a bunch of idiots!

"Your Majesty, you don't need to worry about this matter. As the king of the county, we don't even have a country, and we can't even compare with those aristocratic families. This is a great shame.

Anyway, if those aristocratic families are cheaper, it is better to wait for these clansmen to be cheaper! "

King Li Fengci of Bohai said with a depressed face.

"Humph!"

Li Shimin snorted coldly, "Li Fengci, you grew up playing with my brothers and sisters. Who knows what kind of a fellow you are? There are hundreds of prostitutes and concubines in your family, all of whom are dressed in rich clothes, and they eat only meat, they are extremely arrogant and extravagant.

Just relying on you, the king of the dude, if you go to attack the city with your own guards, you must be in vain for the lives of all the guards! "

"Your Majesty, don't underestimate us. As the descendants of Taizu, it would be easy for us to attack those mere barbarians!"

On the side, Li Daoxing also said with a depressed face.

"Wait..."

Li Shimin's expression became angry again.

"See Father Emperor!"

At this time, Li Chengqian rushed back.

"How did Xuanba say it?"

Li Shimin's eyes were delighted, and he asked quietly.

"Father, please see!"

With that said, Li Chengqian directly handed the few pieces of paper in his hand to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin watched directly.

The look in the eyes gradually became dignified.

"His Majesty?"

After Li Shimin finished reading, Li Xiaogong beside him was full of anticipation.

Others don't know, but Li Xiaogong knows that Li Shimin has been procrastinating all this time, waiting for Li Xuanba's reply.

"Let's take a look!"

Li Shimin glanced at Li Xiaogong angrily, then handed over the few pieces of paper in his hand.

"This……"

After reading it, Li Xiaogong couldn't help frowning slightly.

After that, he passed on the paper in his hand.

After everyone had finished watching, Li Shimin chuckled lightly and asked, "I have no objection if you want to establish a country outside the Tang Dynasty.

On the contrary, people like Xuan Ba ​​are very supportive.

However, between the princes of the Tang Dynasty and those barbarian kingdoms, there can only be one choice.

However, you can rest assured that they are all clan relatives anyway.

If you go out to conquer and fail to take down the kingdom, and come back to the Tang Dynasty, I will still grant you the title, but your title will be lowered by two ranks!

And if after conquering the kingdom, you dislike the barrenness of the kingdom and want to return to Datang, that's fine too!

You wait for the Kingdom to send people to manage it, but your previous title will be lowered by one rank! "

Hearing this, all the county kings and princes looked overjoyed.

"Well, if Xiaogong and Daozong also want to attack a kingdom and become kings, I will agree!"

Li Shimin said again.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Li Daozong and Li Xiaogong quickly saluted and thanked them.

"However, you have to think carefully. I will not send troops to assist you. At most, after you are defeated and killed by those small countries, I will send troops to avenge you!"

Li Shimin said again.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, as long as your Majesty treats those aristocratic families like that, and lend me some weapons!"

The members of the Li clan were full of confidence.

"Hmph! I hope you won't regret it!"

Li Shimin snorted again.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will never regret it!"

All the clan members responded again.

Li Shimin waved his hands helplessly, he no longer wanted to listen to these idiots.

How can it be so easy to be the kings of those barbarian lands other than the Tang Dynasty?

After leaving the Tai Chi Palace, all the Li family members scattered away with joy on their faces.

"Brother Xiaogong, do you want to conquer a few cities and have fun as a king?"

Li Daozong caught up with Li Xiaogong and asked with a light smile.
