The host is red and black, and the system can only chirp

Any political tactics are powerless in the face of absolute hard power; the king only looks at actual results.

Just like Li Shimin in the official history, he ascended the throne of the crown prince through a coup in the ninth year of Wude, and then dared to dismiss the titles of more than 50 relatives of the Li clan in one go, most of whom were princes.

Do the kings dare to object?

They dare not.

Li Shimin did not need to learn from Emperor Wu of Han's practice of bribery and deprivation of titles, nor did he need to employ cruel officials, and he did not even need to issue the Overt Enfeoffment Order.

He directly issued an official document stating that there was no rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms during the reign of Emperor Han Jing, nor was there any campaign of peacekeeping during the reign of Emperor Jianwen. Some people objected, but it was useless, and the important matter was settled with ease.

After ascending the throne, Li Shimin laid off two-thirds of the officials and streamlined local institutions in order to reduce the financial burden, but the country remained calm.

.

Back in the Great Xia Dynasty, Xi Mingming advised Lin Chu and the Song clan from a distance: I admire your ambitions, but all this has nothing to do with the people. How about you fight the generals? Don't mobilize the people to start a large army to fight.

Who dares not to listen?

Even the unpredictable demon sect did not dare to openly oppose it.

Wang Xinyi made up for his shortcomings this time. With the remote support of Kankan and Hou Xibai, he not only mastered many things in the martial arts world, but also conducted a census of the Demon Sect's population.

Don't mention it, Master really wasn't wrong. The father and son Xiang Gui and Xiang Yushan, who were beheaded by Brother Li, were really in collusion with the Demon Sect.

It was still Zhao Deyan who was far away on the grassland.

.

No one, whether Lin Chu or the Song clan, dared to openly violate the expectations of the Emperor of Daxia.

Anyone who dares not to listen will have to wait for Li Jing to lead his troops south.

Nowadays, whoever has the bigger fist has the more influence.

.

In the summer of the second year of Zhenguan, both Lin Chu and the Song clan suffered heavy losses. Shi Zhixuan, whose schizophrenia worsened in Luoyang, was ultimately unable to defeat Tian Dao Song Que.

Lin Shihong died of failure and grief, and Lin Chu was destroyed.

The Song clan had no time to rejoice, for they looked carefully and saw that Li Jing had commanded the army to encircle Lin Chu from three sides, and most of Lin Chu's territory was occupied by Daxia troops.

What’s more, Feng Ang took over Lin Shihong’s political resources.

This kid is an open gigolo, and he rose to the forefront with the support of the female duke of Daxia. He also has the legacy of Madam Xian. In Lingnan, let alone the Song clan, even Daxia is not as powerful as Feng Ang.

The twenty states of Lingnan were completely divided into two.

The eight states of Gao, Luo, Chun, Bai, Ya, Dan, Lin and Zhen rebelled at once and decided to follow Feng Ang, the descendant of Lady Xian, and let this person decide whether to surrender to Xia.

Isn’t this ridiculous?

Feng Ang had the support of Daxia behind him.

As expected, Feng Ang turned around and accepted the letter from Li Jing, a famous general of Daxia, and led his subordinates to surrender to Daxia.

His Majesty the Emperor appointed Feng Ang as Governor of Gaozhou and conferred him the title of Duke of Yue. Feng Ang sent his son Feng Zhidai back to the court to be brainwashed by the court, or rather, to be rewarded.

The world's attention is once again focused on the Song clan.

Song Que was very straightforward. He retired and left the family to his son Song Shidao, who was the chief steward in Jincheng. He didn't know how to manage the family, one in the south and one in the north.

The Emperor of Daxia had no choice but to change the twenty states in Lingnan into five prefectures and send officials to each of them.

.

At the same time, Li Gui of Liangzhou accepted the prince's call and surrendered to Daxia, and the prince took him back to the capital.

Afterwards, Liu Heita of Dingxiang County was frequently harassed by the Turks in the east. Upon investigation, he found out that Gao Kaidao of Yuyang and Luo Yi of Youzhou had joined forces to open the door and lure the Turks to the south.

Liu Heita defeated the Turks, and the border town troops maintained their tradition and robbed a lot of livestock.

He couldn't wait to report to the court as he had no chance to miss it.

At this time, Ba Fenghan was leading his Modao Battalion to retreat from the northwest to the border town. Before he could return to Wuyuan, he was stopped in Mayi by Liu Heita's men.

What happened next was very natural.

Liu Heita and Ba Fenghan directly destroyed Gao Kaidao of Yuyang and Luo Yi of Youzhou.

Since then, the Central Plains has been unified.

.

Gao Hongde held the tablet in his pocket and did not go to the government hall to work after court. Instead, he chased Xi Mingming to ask for an explanation.

The Grand Secretary must offer sacrifices to heaven anyway!

"We are short of money. The soldiers have won so many battles, shouldn't we give them a reward?"

Kou Zhong also chased out and seemed to be thinking about what he said.

"How can they have money? The soldiers did not harm the people. Did that delay them from robbing the wealthy and powerful families?"

"Many canals need to be repaired, and the court wants to use work in lieu of relief. Money is needed everywhere."

Gao Hongde was so angry that he almost broke the tablet of the civil official who was so weak that he could not even tie a chicken.

Scholar Gao was hysterical: "Sacrifices to the heavens also require payment!"

Kou Zhong did not hesitate this time: "Master, I know where there is more money!"

He was afraid that his master would make Teacher Gao angry and something bad would happen to him.

The king and his minister both turned around.

"Master, do you still remember the Yang Gong treasure house that caused a lot of controversy a few years ago?"

"The money Yang Su has accumulated?"

"Yes. Ziling and I probably know where it is. Why don't we go look for it?"

Gao Hongde's thoughts were very much like those of the scholars and officials of the time: "How can the great imperial court of Great Xia rely on the wealth of the sycophants of the previous dynasty to offer sacrifices to the heaven?"

Yang Su once shared government power with Gao Jiong, but the two did not get along well.

Xi Mingming tried to be as objective as possible. "In terms of military talent, Yang Su can be called a famous general. Moreover, money is not a crime. Since the Yang family has no descendants, it would be great to find him and comfort the people."

Kou Zhongzheng was impatient with having to get up before dawn every day to attend court.

He often couldn't understand what the adults were arguing in the court.

Kou Zhong can now read, but only common words. He can read and write straightforward reports, but he is impatient with arguments that quote classics.

Sometimes when he was impeached, he didn't know what the old men were impeaching him for.

Since his master supported him, Kou Zhong immediately prepared to run away.

He settled his steps and said with great interest, "Master, I will go ahead and report back when I find the way."

Isn’t this Grandma Fang’s meal as attractive as running out?

"Go ahead, go ahead. This kind of place must be full of traps. Don't go in alone. If you see any signs, call Qiu Xinhua'er and the others. If it doesn't work, call Ba Fenghan'an as well."

Kou Zhong leaped out of the palace: "Of course I'm called Ling Shao first."

You're running around all the time, no wonder Wei Zheng wants to report you.
