Datang: From exiled prince to eternal tyrant

Chapter 470

There is no need for Li Ke to make a move.

Countless angry people will tear those who want to do it to pieces.

in their eyes.

It was Li Ke who brought them a better life today.

They naturally hope to continue living under Li Ke's rule.

If it is someone else.

Of course there is no such treatment.

Just like in Chang'an.

If someone really wants to assassinate Li Shimin.

Those who moved first must be members of their royal family.

Then there are those people from aristocratic families.

And then.

It is the people.

And even if those people take action.

The strength of the assassin will also be considered.

He would not be passionate about helping Li Shimin to pay.

This is Li Shimin's prestige among the people.

It's not that Li Shimin doesn't have prestige.

But Li Shimin's prestige is far from reaching the level of fanaticism among the people.

Of course the people trust Li Shimin.

otherwise.

Nor would Li Shimin be allowed to stay on the throne for so many years.

In this world, there are many people who want to be emperors.

Don't say far.

Among the five surnames and seven hopes.

Many people have thoughts about the royal family.

After all, their power was about the same as that of the Li family back then.

Now the Li family has become the emperor.

They became the emperor's subordinates.

Although with their strength.

Li Shimin couldn't do anything to them either.

But they also don't want to be someone else's subordinate.

If you have a chance.

They don't mind following the example of the Li family back then and taking over the world again.

of course.

Neither Li Yuan nor Li Shimin gave other families this chance.

Today's Li Ke naturally wouldn't give those families a chance.

It is worth mentioning that.

The people who want to assassinate Li Ke the most these days are actually not people from those countries that have been wiped out.

But other families with five surnames and seven Wangs.

They have already seen the strength and prestige displayed by Li Ke.

If Li Ke succeeds in the future.

This is for their five surnames and seven Wangs.

Will be a huge hit.

Their dominance and influence will be further reduced.

It's even possible.

Li Ke will directly wipe out all their five surnames and seven hopes.

After all, it was in Li Ke's plan.

This has already been done.

Shu Chamber of Commerce.

It is the first step to weaken the rule of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes.

The emergence of Shu Chamber of Commerce.

The strength of the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs has been weakened financially.

After all.

The rule of the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs is based on strong strength and countless money.

There are also various cultural dominations.

cultural domination.

Because of the emergence of imperial examinations.

The dominance of the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs is no longer as good as before.

And money.

Now they are also influenced by the Shu Kingdom Chamber of Commerce.

Originally this matter.

Many ministers in the King's Party of Shu disagreed.

After all, the strength of the five surnames and Qiwang is equal to their strength.

And these ministers accounted for almost half of the Tang Dynasty.

But I couldn't stand Li Ke giving too much.

It can be said that Li Ke sent a lot of wealth to them.

Let them choose between the help of Wu Xing Qi Wang and wealth.

After hesitating, they still chose to give up the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes.

After all, even though Qiwang of the fifth surname is rich.

But they are actually very stingy.

The five surnames and seven Wang who can enter the court are basically son-in-laws.

as son-in-law.

Naturally, it is impossible for them to get too much help from the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs.

It's more about influence.

The influence of the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs allowed them to enter the court and get the support of a large number of Five Surnames and Seven Wangs officials.

But such support does not come without expectation.

After all, those officials will take advantage of the identities of Fang Xuanling and others to go one step further.

So let's talk about it.

They still suffer more.

But there is no way.

This is the true purpose of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes.

They married the women in the family to these ministers for today.

It can be said.

All these ministers have been controlled by the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs.

And Li Ke gave them a chance to get rid of the control of the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs.

In terms of money, they have a share from the King of Shu Chamber of Commerce.

The support of the Qiwang family with five surnames is no longer needed.

Li Ke is giving away favors with the money he snatched from Wu Xing Qi Wang.

But those people really want to accept this favor.

After all, no matter how rich the five-surname Qiwang family is.

It's not theirs either.

The family itself was still very poor.

Such as Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui.

Although they have high official positions.

There are also a lot of salaries issued.

But take care of a big house with nearly a hundred people inside and out.

Just eating is a problem.

Some officials are clean and honest all their lives, and in the end they can't leave any property behind.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui often go out wearing patched clothes.

I really want to take off my official uniform and put them in a crowd.

No one will believe it.

They will be ministers with power.

This is a clean official.

Li Ke sent the money to them.

It's not a bribe, it's just a salary.

After all, the Shu Kingdom Chamber of Commerce wants to spread throughout the country.

It is also inseparable from their help.

And with this money.

They can live better.

Of course this has nothing to do with corruption.

Therefore, the five surnames and seven Wangs are very anxious now.

The officials in their hands are gradually getting out of their control.

Their money is also running out.

Cultural domination is also gradually dissipating.

Continue like this.

What is left of the five surnames and seven hopes?
The source of all this is the appearance of Li Ke.

When Li Ke first attacked the eldest grandson's family.

It is already weakening the strength of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes.

for such a long time.

The prestige of the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs has been further reduced.

Even in the streets and alleys, there are people who dare to talk about the five surnames and seven hopes blatantly.

This was before.

It is simply unimaginable.

Although the five surnames and Qiwang are not royal.

But they have a deterrent force not weaker than the royal family.

Especially on their turf.

They are the emperors.

Even if the emperor's order came to their territory.

Also act according to their faces.

So the five surnames Qiwang wanted to assassinate Li Ke.

Naturally, it makes sense.

Li Ke's current domestic foundation is too weak.

In addition, it is in the country after all.

It is impossible for him to go to war and directly wipe out the five surnames and seven surnames.

This made Wu Xing Qiwang continue to dance.

Let's talk about Li Ke's side.

The Shu army and the Jinwu Guard acted together, and soon arrested all those who wanted to get close to Li Ke while taking advantage of the chaos.

During the riot just now.

Li Ke didn't notice any danger.

After all, with his strength.

There is no one in the world who can pose a threat to him.

Not even Xue Rengui.

But for those Shu army and Jinwuwei.

Anyone who dares to think about Li Ke will not be forgiven.

Even if they just have ideas.
