Li Chengqian's magical operation.
To a certain extent, it did alleviate the pressure on the court or Li Shimin.
Since ancient times, dealing with rebellious ministers and generals has been a difficult problem for those in power.
If the punishment is severe, others will say you are weak-minded, and it may even affect areas where rebellions are taking place.
And if the punishment is light, it will not be enough to reflect the majesty of the court.
It's like you can't have your cake and eat it too. No matter which side you choose, you will suffer unequal losses.
But it's different now.
Based on Li Chengqian's ideas and Li Shimin's actions, an order was issued to Dali Temple.
And Dali Temple also started to operate in full swing.
In just a short period of time, Dali Temple has collected a lot of black and white history about these rebellious ministers and generals.
White history is their local achievements.
Black history is what they did after the rebellion.
Then, the imperial court sent people to select more than a thousand prestigious people among the people and invited them to enter Dali Temple to observe these things.
In the end, it was selected by the votes of more than a thousand people.
Among the one hundred and sixty-three rebels, seventy-two were sentenced to death.
As for the others, they were finally brought before Li Shimin according to the votes of the people, and Li Shimin was asked to choose whether to be exiled and have their homes confiscated, or to be pardoned.
And as soon as this incident came out, it was like throwing a stone into the calm lake surface, causing thousands of waves to stir up in the calm lake surface.
The court's reaction to this incident may have been simply surprise or confusion.
After all, there is a BUG like Li Chengqian, and some people are already used to this kind of thing.
I was suspicious in my heart, but I didn’t say anything more.
But the people are different.
Li Shimin's operation really shocked some people.
Let the common people deal with the ministers. Who has ever experienced this kind of thing? Who has seen it again?
To be honest, probably no one has heard of this kind of thing.
Throughout history, emperors said they were there for the country and the people, but there were none who could truly delegate power to the common people.
Li Shimin really made history.
This matter is being discussed everywhere in the market.
"Tell me, what does our Majesty think?"
"Why would Your Majesty think that we, the common people, should punish those officials?"
One of them asked his companion with a puzzled look on his face.
The companion shook his head and sighed: "It's really time for us, the people, to be the masters of the world. Your Majesty really didn't lie to us."
"That's right."
Another person also said: "Our Majesty, we are really dedicated to serving the country and the people."
"And I feel like this is just the beginning."
"It's not like you haven't seen those conferences before."
"Clans and people from all over the world will come to Chang'an City on August 15th to have a drink with His Majesty and discuss world affairs."
Speaking of this, the man sighed with a face full of emotion: "As a commoner, as a commoner, it is such an honor to be able to drink and discuss world affairs with His Majesty today?"
"And throughout history, how many emperors have been able to achieve the level of our Majesty?"
"Besides, our Majesty is not pretending, he is really doing real things."
"Those corrupt officials have caused misfortune to the people earlier, and His Majesty will treat them as miserably as possible in the end."
"Sometimes I think about it, God is really kind to us Tang people, and actually gave us such an emperor."
For a time, such comments were overwhelming in Chang'an City.
Chang'an City's praise and praise for Li Shimin directly reached a new height.
After all, throughout history, no emperor would delegate his power to the common people.
This kind of scene is something that most people have never seen.
The shock and impact it brought to the people in the end simply reached a level that cannot be described in words.
Li Shimin himself didn't expect it.
This problem that had troubled him for a long time was solved directly by Li Chengqian's cool operation.
Moreover, he also took advantage of this opportunity to gain himself a large number of die-hard fans.
It was also at this time that Li Shimin realized it.
In some cases, the emperor can win people's hearts and convince the people of the world without having to show up.
And it was also because this idea appeared in Li Shimin's mind.
Let the voting system gradually flourish in the Tang Dynasty...
…
Shu land.
Li Chengqian's troops entered Mianzhou, and the military front threatened Yizhou's security.
Many people in Yizhou City became panicked after hearing the news.
Even some aristocratic families began to transfer their property and relatives to the south overnight.
Even though they usually shout happily, who wouldn't be afraid when the army approaches?
After all, Li Chengqian already had a bad reputation.
What he did in the Western Regions has long been spread back to the country.
Rumors have become more and more evil since ancient times.
There are as many words as Li Chengqian's bloodthirsty, murderous people and massacres are commonplace every day.
Therefore, it is really strange that these people in Shu are not afraid of him.
Faced with this situation, Li Ke couldn't help but feel angry.
At that moment, he gathered his troops from all over and gathered towards Yizhou.
The purpose is the same, which is to block Li Chengqian based on Yizhou's city defense.
At the same time, he also ordered the elite Shu troops on the eastern and northern fronts to return for reinforcements.
But now, are we all willing to help them if they want to?
To the east was Gao Zhixing, and to the north was the Liangzhou Army.
Even if they want to save him, who has the strength to break through the two defenses and come to save him?
Now, Li Chengqian's side has also begun to deploy a strategy for Mianzhou City.
Liao Ji, Han Qilue and other generals gathered around Li Chengqian, waiting for his order.
Li Chengqian looked at the strategic sandbox in front of him and calmly analyzed the current situation.
Shu is known as the land of abundance, especially when the east and west rivers were merged into one, it was able to establish its own country in a corner.
And this is also because of the geographical location of Shu and the existence of Jianmen Pass.
But Jianmen Pass is majestic and impenetrable, but this is not the case with other cities in Shu.
Although the Mianzhou City in front of us is also a large city in Shu, its defenses are not even comparable to those of Runzhou City on Jiangnan Road, let alone Bijianmen.
After thinking for a long time, Li Chengqian raised his head and said, "Han Qilue obeys the order."
"The general is here!"
Han Qilue intervened.
"I order you to lead three thousand soldiers and horses, bring all the artillery in the army, use artillery to open the way, and suppress it with bows and crossbows."
Li Chengqian turned to look at Han Qilue and said, "I don't want to see Mianzhou City or its city defenses within three hours."
"I will obey your orders!"
Han Qi slightly took the order and left without even thinking about it.
He didn't care whether Li Chengqian's order made sense or not.
Anyway, just do what he says.
They have done this before, and the final result is the same, they are both winners.
After Han Qilue left, Li Chengqian looked up at Liao Ji.
He said: "Liao Ji obeys the order!"
"The end will be here."
Liao Ji stepped in and went out.
"I order you to lead three thousand soldiers and follow Han Qilue closely."
Li Chengqian said: "Once Han Qilue breaks through the Mianzhou city defense, you immediately charge forward and make sure to break through Runzhou city in one fell swoop."
