In the Tai Chi Hall, all the officials sat down one after another, and Li Shimin also sat on the dragon chair.
Today, all the ministers know the purpose of this court meeting.
However, Eunuch Huang’s opening remarks still need to be made.
After Eunuch Huang finished his opening remarks, someone came out to start the performance, and most of the content of the performance was to testify against Changsun Wuji's crimes and the affairs of his associates.
Li Junxian had already investigated these matters clearly, but Li Shimin was quite happy to hear these people stand up and say these things. After all, these people could stand up, which meant that he succeeded and the family members compromised and gave up.
He has been fighting with the family members for who knows how long, but neither of them can live without the other.
But the two sides are opposed to each other. If what Li Shimin wants to do is in the interests of these aristocratic families, they will all agree. If it is not in their interests, they will be the first to stand up and oppose it.
For example, the aristocratic family headed by Changsun Wuji strongly opposed the matter of reducing the title.
They had worked so hard to get the title, and it would have been better if it had been reduced.
Of course, Li Shimin did not mean to directly reduce the title, but after a hundred years, the title will be automatically eliminated, and his descendants will not be able to enjoy the title, which means that it cannot be hereditary.
This was still opposed by the family members. The title could not be given to their descendants, so how could that be done? That would be no different from reducing the title. What they worked so hard for was that their descendants could enjoy glory and wealth. What would they do if the title was gone?
In this way, Li Shimin proposed a new method, which is to reduce the title.
For example, if you are an earl when you are alive, you will automatically become a viscount when your son is born, and you will become a baron when it is passed on to your grandson.
If the descendants do not have much potential and development, the title will eventually be eliminated.
However, if your descendants still make great contributions and raise the title, then your family can continue to prosper.
This method cannot be said to be bad, but how many of those children from aristocratic families can be made?
For them, if their families are rich and powerful, they can do whatever they want, such as eating, drinking, and having fun every day. When the old man dies, they will inherit the family head and the title, and they can still live happily.
After all, not all children from aristocratic families are heroes, most of them are heroic bastards. If you want them to prosper the family, don't even think about it.
In this way, how could these aristocratic families agree to Li Shimin's conditions and immediately stand beside Changsun Wuji and support Changsun Wuji in confronting Li Shimin.
It seems that Li Shimin treats Changsun Wuji very well, but in fact, Li Shimin wants to kill Changsun Wuji early because of these things.
Don't think that Li Shimin didn't dare to kill Changsun Wuji because he was his uncle. He said it was for the sake of the queen, but in fact he had wanted to get rid of Changsun Wuji for a long time.
As an emperor, how could he be a soft-hearted person? There was no chance or reason.
Until Luo Zhang appeared, he saw such an opportunity. Luo Zhang was like a sharp sword for him, frustrating and destroying many things of Changsun Wuji.
Let’s just talk about this time. If Luo Zhang hadn’t found evidence that Chang Sun Chong had collaborated with the enemy and betrayed his country, and had someone escort him back, Chang Sun Wuji wouldn’t have jumped over the wall in a hurry.
They even sent Japan's top masters to assassinate those Gaoguli generals.
The same Luo Zhang could actually ask such a master to protect these people and kill the number one master in Japan. This completely broke Changsun Wuji's plan.
And that master was none other than his uncle. I wonder if Luo Zhang persuaded his uncle to meet him.
If we could meet him and persuade him to sit in the royal family, then at least for the next few decades, their royal family would be able to sit back and relax.
Thinking about these things and looking at the members of the aristocratic family who surrendered to him, Li Shimin smiled knowingly and his eyes fell on Luo Zhang. The more he looked at this kid, the more he liked him.
From the first meeting to now, Luo Zhang has given him too many surprises and surprises, but everything is good, and there is nothing that he is not satisfied with.
Just like what he said to Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, if Luo Zhang is not too young, what can he do if he is given the title of Duke!
