Sui and Tang Dynasties: Engagement to Li Xiuning, start with heavy snow dragon ride

"Return to Your Majesty, Li Shimin has no news yet."

Yang Zhao nodded, a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

He knew it wasn't a matter of Jin Yiwei's ability.

"what's up?"

"Your Majesty, the Youzhou refugees have been resettled properly, and the effect is better than expected."

"Among the Thirteen Continents of Youzhou, besides the refugees, there are also [-] people who migrated to the grasslands."

Yang Zhao was a little surprised when he got the news. The number of people indeed exceeded expectations.

"Any more?"

Yang Zhao continued to ask.

"Return to Your Majesty, the nobles who robbed Youzhou's resources have all been secretly monitored. This is the list."

Shen Lian handed over a list.

Yang Zhaozhan glanced roughly, and sneered:

"Hehe, what a gutsy dog!"

There are already more than [-] companies recorded on the list alone.

There are still some that have not been identified yet.

When he promulgated the official document, he clearly stipulated that all resources should be shared by the people.

The powerful nobles are not allowed to participate in it.

"Take my words as deaf ears, good, good, good."

"What a nobleman."

The anger in Yang Zhao's heart has reached its peak.

"Has the evidence been collected?"

"Return to Your Majesty, more than ten families have been collected, and the rest are still under investigation."

"Okay, is there anything else?"

"Gone."

"Go down."

After Shen Lian left, Yang Zhao immediately summoned Xu Maogong and others, and put the list on the table.

"What do you think?"

After everyone circulated it, they were all filled with anger.

"Your Majesty, let the minister chop off their heads with one knife!"

Li Cunxiao stood up and said angrily, waiting for Yang Zhao's order, he can leave.

"General Li must be impulsive. These aristocratic families are all connected, and they can't be solved by just killing them."

Xu Maogong frowned, he also felt very troubled.

"Then what should we do? Just let them be so rampant?"

Li Cunxiao refused to accept, but looked at Yang Zhao, but did not get a look of approval.

"Your Majesty, since we have conclusive evidence, why not arrest them all?"

Su Wei didn't understand, Yang Zhao must have collected evidence to come up with this list.

Pei Ju said thoughtfully:

"The evidence is insufficient for best results."

Wei Zheng nodded in agreement:

"That's right. Although these people are just local aristocrats, their network of connections extends in all directions. After they are captured, they will eventually be released."

Everyone knows these things.

They just robbed the resources, and at worst they returned all the resources, and then managed them up and down.

How will Yang Zhao be punished?

The death penalty is not enough.

The same is true for copying.

At that time, there will naturally be people in the court to intercede, and in the end, those aristocratic families will bleed some blood, and they will be locked up for a few months, and finally they will live in peace.

Yang Zhao didn't want such a result.

If he wants these people to disappear.

It's not as simple as letting some blood out.

After going out, the nature is hard to change, and it is the people and the court who will suffer.

In the past, Yang Zhao's thoughts were all on fighting, and he never noticed this.

It was only when I became the emperor that I realized that the interior of the imperial court had become like this.

Thinking of this, Yang Zhao was a little amused. After repelling the foreign enemies, he discovered that the biggest enemy was actually his own people.

"Your Majesty, I think that the most urgent thing is to find an excuse to let the nobles bleed and fill the treasury."

Wei Zheng thought far ahead, and now is obviously not the best time to deal with nobles.

These words brought Yang Zhao back to his senses.

Just now, he seemed to be emotionally unstable again.

It was that force again.

During this period of time, he thought for a long time, and he was basically sure that he wanted to restore history.

Subtly affect his emotions.

Hurry up to eradicate the nobles, and then cause the dissatisfaction of the family, and finally go to the end.

It just so happened that Li Shimin was not dead, so he could have imagined that the final outcome must be that Li Shimin attacked Chang'an and finally proclaimed himself emperor.

After regaining his composure, Yang Zhao shook his head:

"It's not enough, these alone are not enough."

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, and Yang Zhaojian couldn't come up with any countermeasures.

Let a few people go back first, he also needs time to relax, during this time, he is always tense.

Turn to Li Ningxiu.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?"

Seeing Yang Zhao, Li Ningxiu was very pleasantly surprised.

Since Yang Zhao came to the throne, they rarely met each other.

Although she knew that Yang Zhao was very busy and had no time, she couldn't bear to miss him.

"miss you."

Yang Zhao smiled, walked to Li Ningxiu's side, and hugged her gently.

"Your Majesty, are you tired?"

Li Ningxiu, who noticed something strange, immediately felt Yang Zhao's fatigue.

It's a mental fatigue.

Yang Zhao smiled and said nothing, there are some things that don't need to be said.

Furthermore, Li Ningxiu is now the queen, and there are many things to deal with, and she needs to be in charge of all the big and small things in the harem.

Yang Zhao came to relax, not to cause trouble.

"Tell me, what interesting things have happened in the palace recently?"

Chapter 287

Speaking of this, Li Ningxiu frowned and said in a low voice:

"There are no interesting things, but a lot of annoying things."

"Oh? Who made you angry, tell me, and I will definitely forgive him!"

Yang Zhao was immediately displeased, it's fine if he encounters troubles, and there are still people who trouble the queen?

Li Ningxiu sighed:

"Who dares to provoke me in this palace now, it's because of the rules."

Then, Li Ningxiu said:

"A few days ago, the Ministry of Households came to distribute monthly money and silk, and I wanted to go to Jiaojiao's to discuss what clothes to make."

"But Jiaojiao's satin is a bit worse than mine. At first I thought it was because of my status."

"Later Ziyan also came. They are both imperial concubines, and the fabrics are so different. I went to the household department to ask."

"I learned that the national treasury was tight. I didn't care, but among the concubines, Bingbing and Jiaojiao are the worst, while Ziyan and Rongrong are better."

"I went to the Ministry of Household Affairs to ask for an explanation, and in the end they had no choice but to tell me that the reason was that Ziyan and Rongrong came from famous families, so they would be better off."

"I insist on changing it, but the Ministry of Household Affairs said that this is a long-standing rule, so don't make it difficult for me."

"Your Majesty, is this kind of rule really good?"

Li Ningxiu knew Yang Zhao's temperament, she said this because she wanted Yang Zhao to stand by her side.

"Hmph! I think they have eaten the heart of a bear and the guts of a leopard!"

"Tomorrow, you go to the household department and pass on my oral order that Shan Bingbing and Zhai Jiaojiao will enjoy the treatment of imperial concubine, and they will be treated equally."

Yang Zhao snorted coldly. He really didn't expect that even the harem would be affected by this kind of culture.

The concubines in the harem will distribute salaries and silk, rouge, jewelry, etc. every year.

Although they don't need to spend money in the imperial city, they can't get out.

But the servants still need some help.

Or send it home.

It seems that the household department will also be replaced.

Yang Zhao's eyes were cold, and Li Ningxiu changed his clothes for him.

After solving this matter, Li Ningxiu's mood improved a lot.

She didn't want to disturb Yang Zhao. As the emperor, she was busy with affairs, but she just couldn't say it.

It's all right now, Yang Zhao personally agreed, she can't wait to spread this good news right away.

late at night.

In Yong'an Palace, murmurs could be heard from time to time...

vertical day.

Daxing Hall.

The civil and military officials were exceptionally quiet. From observing Yang Zhao's expression, they knew that the emperor was not in a good mood today.

Wait until the routine debriefing is complete.

Yang Zhao spoke.

"Where is the Minister of the Household?"

Hubu Shangshu Xiao Li trembled and stepped forward tremblingly:

"The minister is here."

"The harem paid out the salary the day before yesterday, why is my noble concubine treated differently?"
